This is really about simplifying the double xchg patterns into
a single cmpxchg, with the same logic. Other than the immediate
cleanup, there are some subtleties this change deals with:

(i) While the load of the old bt is fully ordered wrt everything,
ie:

        old_bt = xchg(&q->blk_trace, bt);             [barrier]
        if (old_bt)
	     (void) xchg(&q->blk_trace, old_bt);    [barrier]

blk_trace could still be changed between the xchg and the old_bt
load. Note that this description is merely theoretical and afaict
very small, but doing everything in a single context with cmpxchg
closes this potential race.

(ii) Ordering guarantees are obviously kept with cmpxchg.

(iii) Gets rid of the hacky-by-nature (void)xchg pattern.

tracing: Move trace_flags from global to a trace_array field 2015-09-30T19:22:55+00:00 Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) rostedt@goodmis.org 2015-09-30T13:42:05+00:00 983f938ae69585213bbb779d841b90e75f93f545 In preparation to make trace options per instance, the global trace_flags needs to be moved from being a global variable to a field within the trace instance trace_array structure. There's still more work to do, as there's some functions that use trace_flags without passing in a way to get to the current_trace array. For those, the global_trace is used directly (from trace.c). This includes setting and clearing the trace_flags. This means that when a new instance is created, it just gets the trace_flags of the global_trace and will not be able to modify them. Depending on the functions that have access to the trace_array, the flags of an instance may not affect parts of its trace, where the global_trace is used. These will be fixed in future changes.

From me. - A few tag and request handling updates from me. - Cleanup of the preempt handling for running queues from Paolo. - Prevent running of unmapped hardware queues from Ming Lei. - Move the kdump memory limiting check to be in the correct location, from Shaohua. - Initialize all software queues at init time from Takashi. This prevents a kobject warning when CPUs are brought online that weren't online when a queue was registered. - Single writeback fix for I_DIRTY clearing from Tejun.

Pull block driver core update from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the pull request for the core block IO changes for 3.19.  Not
  a huge round this time, mostly lots of little good fixes:

   - Fix a bug in sysfs blktrace interface causing a NULL pointer
     dereference, when enabled/disabled through that API.  From Arianna
     Avanzini.

   - Various updates/fixes/improvements for blk-mq:

        - A set of updates from Bart, mostly fixing buts in the tag
          handling.

        - Cleanup/code consolidation from Christoph.

        - Extend queue_rq API to be able to handle batching issues of IO
          requests. NVMe will utilize this shortly. From me.

        - A few tag and request handling updates from me.

        - Cleanup of the preempt handling for running queues from Paolo.

        - Prevent running of unmapped hardware queues from Ming Lei.

        - Move the kdump memory limiting check to be in the correct
          location, from Shaohua.

        - Initialize all software queues at init time from Takashi. This
          prevents a kobject warning when CPUs are brought online that
          weren't online when a queue was registered.

     Maurizio.  Hope the Xth time is the charm.

   - Documentation fixup for IO scheduler merging from Jan.

   - Introduce (and use) generic IO stat accounting helpers for non-rq
     drivers, from Gu Zheng.

   - Kill off artificial limiting of max sectors in a request from
     Christoph"

blktrace: don't let the sysfs interface remove trace from running list 2014-12-09T21:59:09+00:00 Arianna Avanzini avanzini.arianna@gmail.com 2014-12-09T21:57:45+00:00 7eca210375dcc029ad69c0cf48d2bf7a71f0121d Currently, blktrace can be started/stopped via its ioctl-based interface (used by the userspace blktrace tool) or via its ftrace interface. The function blk_trace_remove_queue(), called each time an "enable" tunable of the ftrace interface transitions to zero, removes the trace from the running list, even if no function from the sysfs interface adds it to such a list. This leads to a null pointer dereference. This commit changes the blk_trace_remove_queue() function so that it does not remove the blk_trace from the running list. v2: - Now the patch removes the invocation of list_del() instead of adding an useless if branch, as suggested by Namhyung Kim.
