block: add and use scsi_blk_cmd_ioctl

2012-01-26T01:24:54Z

commit 577ebb374c78314ac4617242f509e2f5e7156649 upstream. Introduce a wrapper around scsi_cmd_ioctl that takes a block device. The function will then be enhanced to detect partition block devices and, in that case, subject the ioctls to whitelisting.

ide-disk: Fix request requeuing

2011-10-16T21:14:51Z

commit 2c8fc867602e385fd2abe76da0b6bda8ed907547 upstream. Simon Kirby reported that on his RAID setup with idedisk underneath the box OOMs after a couple of days of runtime. Running with CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK pointed to idedisk_prep_fn() which unconditionally allocates an ide_cmd struct. However, ide_requeue_and_plug() can be called more than once per request, either from the request issue or the IRQ handler path and do blk_peek_request() ends up in idedisk_prep_fn() repeatedly, allocating a struct ide_cmd everytime and "forgetting" the previous pointer. Make sure the code reuses the old allocated chunk.

ide-cd: signedness warning fix again

2011-06-11T22:06:48Z

One of the legit warnings 'make W=3 drivers/ide/ide-cd.c' generates is: drivers/ide/ide-cd.c: In function ide_cd_do_request drivers/ide/ide-cd.c:828:2: warning: conversion to int from \ unsigned int may change the sign of the result drivers/ide/ide-cd.c:833:2: warning: conversion to int from \ unsigned int may change the sign of the result nsectors is declared int, should be unsigned int. blk_rq_sectors() returns unsigned int, and ide_complete_rq expects unsigned int as well. Fixes both warnings. Signed-off-by: Connor Hansen Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

block: fix mismerge of the DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE removal

2011-06-01T20:29:19Z

Jens' back-merge commit 698567f3fa79 ("Merge commit 'v2.6.39' into for-2.6.40/core") was incorrectly done, and re-introduced the DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE lines that had been removed earlier in commits - 9fd097b14918 ("block: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for legacy/fringe drivers") - 7eec77a1816a ("ide: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for ide-gd and ide-cd") because of conflicts with the "g->flags" updates near-by by commit d4dc210f69bc ("block: don't block events on excl write for non-optical devices") As a result, we re-introduced the hanging behavior due to infinite disk media change reports. Tssk, tssk, people! Don't do back-merges at all, and *definitely* don't do them to hide merge conflicts from me - especially as I'm likely better at merging them than you are, since I do so many merges.

Merge commit 'v2.6.39' into for-2.6.40/core

2011-05-20T18:33:15Z

Since for-2.6.40/core was forked off the 2.6.39 devel tree, we've had churn in the core area that makes it difficult to handle patches for eg cfq or blk-throttle. Instead of requiring that they be based in older versions with bugs that have been fixed later in the rc cycle, merge in 2.6.39 final. Also fixes up conflicts in the below files.
