block: remove bio_get_nr_vecs()

2015-08-13T18:32:04+00:00

We can always fill up the bio now, no need to estimate the possible
size based on queue parameters.

block: add a bi_error field to struct bio

2015-07-29T14:55:15+00:00

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:

 (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
 (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback

The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario.  Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.

So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

block: remove BIO_EOPNOTSUPP

2015-05-19T15:17:03+00:00

Since the big barrier rewrite/removal in 2007 we never fail FLUSH or
FUA requests, which means we can remove the magic BIO_EOPNOTSUPP flag
to help propagating those to the buffer_head layer.

block: Abstract out bvec iterator

2013-11-24T06:33:47+00:00

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

nilfs2: fix issue with counting number of bio requests for BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection

2013-08-23T16:51:22+00:00

Fix the issue with improper counting number of flying bio requests for
BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection case.

The sb_nbio must be incremented exactly the same number of times as
complete() function was called (or will be called) because
nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of
times set to sb_nbio:

  do {
      wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event);
  } while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0);

Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the
same number of times for the same sb_bio_event.  Otherwise,
wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

nilfs2: super root size should change depending on inode size

2011-05-10T13:21:44+00:00

The size of super root structure depends on inode size, so
NILFS_SR_BYTES macro should be a function of the inode size.  This
fixes the issue.

Even though a different size value will be written for a possible
future filesystem with extended inode, but fortunately this does not
break disk format compatibility.

nilfs2: get rid of private page allocator

2011-05-10T13:21:44+00:00

Previously, nilfs was cloning pages for mmapped region to freeze their
data and ensure consistency of checksum during writeback cycles.  A
private page allocator was used for this page cloning.  But, we no
longer need to do that since clear_page_dirty_for_io function sets up
pte so that vm_ops->page_mkwrite function is called right before the
mmapped pages are modified and nilfs_page_mkwrite function can safely
wait for the pages to be written back to disk.

So, this stops making a copy of mmapped pages during writeback, and
eliminates the private page allocation and deallocation functions from
nilfs.

block: kill off REQ_UNPLUG

2011-03-10T07:52:27+00:00

With the plugging now being explicitly controlled by the
submitter, callers need not pass down unplugging hints
to the block layer. If they want to unplug, it's because they
manually plugged on their own - in which case, they should just
unplug at will.
