sysctl: remove "struct file *" argument of ->proc_handler

2009-09-24T14:21:04+00:00

It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

block: Use accessor functions for queue limits

2009-05-22T21:22:54+00:00

Convert all external users of queue limits to using wrapper functions
instead of poking the request queue variables directly.

block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size

2009-05-22T21:22:54+00:00

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.

block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetch

2009-05-11T07:52:18+00:00

Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution.
A request is always acquired from the request queue via
elv_next_request().  After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it
or process it without dequeueing.  Dequeue allows elv_next_request()
to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight.

Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in
allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with
segments only without considering request boundary.  However, the
benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API
ambiguity is increasing.  Segment based drivers are usually for very
old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't
difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer
and its more modern users.

Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing
model.  This patch completes the API transition by...

* renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request()

* renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request()

* adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start

* disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests

* applying new API to all LLDs

Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that
it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

[ Impact: block request issue API cleanup, no functional change ]

gdrom: dequeue in-flight request

2009-05-11T07:52:17+00:00

gdrom already dequeues and fully completes requests on normal path and
the error paths can be easily converted to do so too.  Clean it up and
dequeue requests on error paths too.

While at it remove superflous blk_fs_request() && !blk_rq_sectors()
condition check.

block: convert to dequeueing model (easy ones)

2009-05-11T07:52:17+00:00

plat-omap/mailbox, floppy, viocd, mspro_block, i2o_block and
mmc/card/queue are already pretty close to dequeueing model and can be
converted with simple changes.  Convert them.

While at it,

* xen-blkfront: !fs check moved downwards to share dequeue call with
  normal path.

* mspro_block: __blk_end_request(..., blk_rq_cur_byte()) converted to
  __blk_end_request_cur()

* mmc/card/queue: loop of __blk_end_request() converted to
  __blk_end_request_all()

block: convert to pos and nr_sectors accessors

2009-05-11T07:50:54+00:00

With recent cleanups, there is no place where low level driver
directly manipulates request fields.  This means that the 'hard'
request fields always equal the !hard fields.  Convert all
rq->sectors, nr_sectors and current_nr_sectors references to
accessors.

While at it, drop superflous blk_rq_pos() < 0 test in swim.c.

[ Impact: use pos and nr_sectors accessors ]
