block: fix infinite loop if the device loses discard capability

2018-12-29T12:40:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit b88aef36b87c9787a4db724923ec4f57dfd513f3 ]

If __blkdev_issue_discard is in progress and a device mapper device is
reloaded with a table that doesn't support discard,
q->limits.max_discard_sectors is set to zero. This results in infinite
loop in __blkdev_issue_discard.

This patch checks if max_discard_sectors is zero and aborts with
-EOPNOTSUPP.

block: break discard submissions into the user defined size

2018-12-29T12:40:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit af097f5d199e2aa3ab3ef777f0716e487b8f7b08 ]

Don't build discards bigger than what the user asked for, if the
user decided to limit the size by writing to 'discard_max_bytes'.

block: require write_same and discard requests align to logical block size

2016-10-11T22:06:30+00:00

Make sure that the offset and length arguments that we're using to
construct WRITE SAME and DISCARD requests are actually aligned to the
logical block size.  Failure to do this causes other errors in other parts
of the block layer or the SCSI layer because disks don't support partial
logical block writes.

Merge branch 'for-4.8/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2016-07-26T22:37:51+00:00

Pull block driver updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This branch also contains core changes.  I've come to the conclusion
  that from 4.9 and forward, I'll be doing just a single branch.  We
  often have dependencies between core and drivers, and it's hard to
  always split them up appropriately without pulling core into drivers
  when that happens.

  That said, this contains:

   - separate secure erase type for the core block layer, from
     Christoph.

   - set of discard fixes, from Christoph.

   - bio shrinking fixes from Christoph, as a followup up to the
     op/flags change in the core branch.

   - map and append request fixes from Christoph.

   - NVMeF (NVMe over Fabrics) code from Christoph.  This is pretty
     exciting!

   - nvme-loop fixes from Arnd.

   - removal of ->driverfs_dev from Dan, after providing a
     device_add_disk() helper.

   - bcache fixes from Bhaktipriya and Yijing.

   - cdrom subchannel read fix from Vchannaiah.

   - set of lightnvm updates from Wenwei, Matias, Johannes, and Javier.

   - set of drbd updates and fixes from Fabian, Lars, and Philipp.

   - mg_disk error path fix from Bart.

   - user notification for failed device add for loop, from Minfei.

   - NVMe in general:
        + NVMe delay quirk from Guilherme.
        + SR-IOV support and command retry limits from Keith.
        + fix for memory-less NUMA node from Masayoshi.
        + use UINT_MAX for discard sectors, from Minfei.
        + cancel IO fixes from Ming.
        + don't allocate unused major, from Neil.
        + error code fixup from Dan.
        + use constants for PSDT/FUSE from James.
        + variable init fix from Jay.
        + fabrics fixes from Ming, Sagi, and Wei.
        + various fixes"

block: introduce BLKDEV_DISCARD_ZERO to fix zeroout

2016-07-20T23:35:20+00:00

Currently blkdev_issue_zeroout cascades down from discards (if the driver
guarantees that discards zero data), to WRITE SAME and then to a loop
writing zeroes.  Unfortunately we ignore run-time EOPNOTSUPP errors in the
block layer blkdev_issue_discard helper to work around DM volumes that
may have mixed discard support underneath.

This patch intoroduces a new BLKDEV_DISCARD_ZERO flag to
blkdev_issue_discard that indicates we are called for zeroing operation.
This allows both to ignore the EOPNOTSUPP hack and actually consolidating
the discard_zeroes_data check into the function.

block, fs, mm, drivers: use bio set/get op accessors

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

This patch converts the simple bi_rw use cases in the block,
drivers, mm and fs code to set/get the bio operation using
bio_set_op_attrs/bio_op

These should be simple one or two liner cases, so I just did them
in one patch. The next patches handle the more complicated
cases in a module per patch.
