xen: modify xenstore watch event interface

2017-02-09T16:26:49+00:00

Today a Xenstore watch event is delivered via a callback function
declared as:

void (*callback)(struct xenbus_watch *,
                 const char **vec, unsigned int len);

As all watch events only ever come with two parameters (path and token)
changing the prototype to:

void (*callback)(struct xenbus_watch *,
                 const char *path, const char *token);

is the natural thing to do.

Apply this change and adapt all users.

 "Xen features and fixes for 4.10

  These are some fixes, a move of some arm related headers to share them
  between arm and arm64 and a series introducing a helper to make code
  more readable.

  The most notable change is David stepping down as maintainer of the
  Xen hypervisor interface. This results in me sending you the pull
  requests for Xen related code from now on"

xen: make use of xenbus_read_unsigned() in xen-blkback

2016-11-07T12:55:07+00:00

Use xenbus_read_unsigned() instead of xenbus_scanf() when possible.
This requires to change the type of one read from int to unsigned,
but this case has been wrong before: negative values are not allowed
for the modified case.

block,fs: use REQ_* flags directly

2016-11-01T15:43:26+00:00

Remove the WRITE_* and READ_SYNC wrappers, and just use the flags
directly.  Where applicable this also drops usage of the
bio_set_op_attrs wrapper.

Instead of overloading the discard support with the REQ_SECURE flag.
Use the opportunity to rename the queue flag as well, and remove the
dead checks for this flag in the RAID 1 and RAID 10 drivers that don't
