sunvdc: Fix off-by-one in generic_request().

2013-02-28T14:32:26Z

[ Upstream commit f4d9605434c0fd4cc8639bf25cfc043418c52362 ] The 'operations' bitmap corresponds one-for-one with the operation codes, no adjustment is necessary. Reported-by: Mark Kettenis Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

block: Consolidate phys_segment and hw_segment limits

2010-02-26T12:58:08Z

Except for SCSI no device drivers distinguish between physical and hardware segment limits. Consolidate the two into a single segment limit. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: Rename blk_queue_max_sectors to blk_queue_max_hw_sectors

2010-02-26T12:58:08Z

The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_. blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion. Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to set max_hw_sectors. Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability. This can be removed after the merge window is closed. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetch

2009-05-11T07:52:18Z

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.

block: convert to pos and nr_sectors accessors

2009-05-11T07:50:54Z

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.

sparc64: Fix unsigned long long warnings in drivers.
