2008-12-29block: fix empty barrier on write-through w/ ordered tagTejun Heo
Empty barrier on write-through (or no cache) w/ ordered tag has no command to execute and without any command to execute ordered tag is never issued to the device and the ordering is never achieved. Force draining for such cases. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-12-29block: simplify empty barrier implementationTejun Heo
Empty barrier required special handling in __elv_next_request() to complete it without letting the low level driver see it. With previous changes, barrier code is now flexible enough to skip the BAR step using the same barrier sequence selection mechanism. Drop the special handling and mask off q->ordered from start_ordered(). Remove blk_empty_barrier() test which now has no user.

2008-12-29block: make barrier completion more robustTejun Heo
Barrier completion had the following assumptions. * start_ordered() couldn't finish the whole sequence properly. If all actions are to be skipped, q->ordseq is set correctly but the actual completion was never triggered thus hanging the barrier request. * Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's always at least one request in the queue when drain completes. Both assumptions are true but these assumptions need to be removed to improve empty barrier implementation. This patch makes the following changes. * Make start_ordered() use blk_ordered_complete_seq() to mark skipped steps complete and notify __elv_next_request() that it should fetch the next request if the whole barrier has completed inside start_ordered(). * Make drain completion path in elv_complete_request() check whether the queue is empty. Empty queue also indicates drain completion. * While at it, convert 0/1 return from blk_do_ordered() to false/true.

2008-12-29block: make every barrier action optionalTejun Heo
In all barrier sequences, the barrier write itself was always assumed to be issued and thus didn't have corresponding control flag. This patch adds QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_BAR and unify action mask handling in start_ordered() such that any barrier action can be skipped. This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.

2008-12-29block: remove duplicate or unused barrier/discard error pathsTejun Heo
* Because barrier mode can be changed dynamically, whether barrier is supported or not can be determined only when actually issuing the barrier and there is no point in checking it earlier. Drop barrier support check in generic_make_request() and __make_request(), and update comment around the support check in blk_do_ordered(). * There is no reason to check discard support in both generic_make_request() and __make_request(). Drop the check in __make_request(). While at it, move error action block to the end of the function and add unlikely() to q existence test. * Barrier request, be it empty or not, is never passed to low level driver and thus it's meaningless to try to copy back req->sector to bio->bi_sector on error. In addition, the notion of failed sector doesn't make any sense for empty barrier to begin with. Drop the code block from __end_that_request_first().

2008-12-29block: reorganize QUEUE_ORDERED_* constantsTejun Heo
Separate out ordering type (drain,) and action masks (preflush, postflush, fua) from visible ordering mode selectors (QUEUE_ORDERED_*). Ordering types are now named QUEUE_ORDERED_BY_* while action masks are named QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_*. This change is necessary to add QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_BAR and make it optional to improve empty barrier implementation.

2008-12-29block: use cancel_work_sync() instead of kblockd_flush_work()Cheng Renquan
After many improvements on kblockd_flush_work, it is now identical to cancel_work_sync, so a direct call to cancel_work_sync is suggested. The only difference is that cancel_work_sync is a GPL symbol, so no non-GPL modules anymore.

2008-12-29block: Supress Buffer I/O errors when SCSI REQ_QUIET flag setKeith Mannthey
Allow the scsi request REQ_QUIET flag to be propagated to the buffer file system layer. The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer. The buffer layer can then suppress needless printks. This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun) buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the logs without this patch. During boot I see blocks of messages like " __ratelimit: 211 callbacks suppressed Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242847 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 1 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242878 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242872 " in my logs. My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC code and multipathd. This topology includes an "active" and "ghost" path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi layer messages. I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this patch for a while now on several boxes without issue. A few runs of bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup. Thanks for John Stultz for the quiet_error finalization.

2008-12-29block: leave the request timeout timer running even on an empty listJens Axboe
For sync IO, we'll often do them serialized. This means we'll be touching the queue timer for every IO, as opposed to only occasionally like we do for queued IO. Instead of deleting the timer when the last request is removed, just let continue running. If a new request comes up soon we then don't have to readd the timer again. If no new requests arrive, the timer will expire without side effect later. This improves high iops sync IO by ~1%. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

This adds support for 16k and 64k page sizes on PowerPC 44x processors. The PGDIR table is much smaller than a page when using 16k or 64k pages (512 and 32 bytes respectively) so we allocate the PGDIR with kzalloc() instead of __get_free_pages(). One PTE table covers rather a large memory area when using 16k or 64k pages (32MB or 512MB respectively), so we can easily put FIXMAP and PKMAP in the area covered by one PTE table.

2008-12-28m68k: mac baboon interrupt enable/disableFinn Thain
No-one seems to know how to mask individual baboon interrupts, so we just mask the umbrella IRQ. This will work as long as only the IDE driver uses the baboon chip (it can't deadlock). Use mac_enable_irq/mac_disable_irq rather than enable_irq/disable_irq because the latter routines count the depth of nested calls which triggers a warning and call trace because IRQ_NUBUS_C is enabled twice in a row (once when the baboon handler is registered, and once when the IDE IRQ is registered).
