cryptoloop: add a deprecation warning

2021-09-12T06:56:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit 222013f9ac30b9cec44301daa8dbd0aae38abffb ]

Support for cryptoloop has been officially marked broken and deprecated
in favor of dm-crypt (which supports the same broken algorithms if
needed) in Linux 2.6.4 (released in March 2004), and support for it has
been entirely removed from losetup in util-linux 2.23 (released in April
2013).  Add a warning and a deprecation schedule.

block: rsxx: select CONFIG_CRC32

2021-01-17T13:05:36+00:00

commit 36a106a4c1c100d55ba3d32a21ef748cfcd4fa99 upstream.

Without crc32, the driver fails to link:

arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/block/rsxx/config.o: in function `rsxx_load_config':
config.c:(.text+0x124): undefined reference to `crc32_le'

docs: blockdev: convert to ReST

2019-07-15T12:20:26+00:00

Rename the blockdev documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.

The drbd sub-directory contains some graphs and data flows.
Add those too to the documentation.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

docs: cdrom: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

2019-06-14T20:20:46+00:00

The stuff there is almost already at ReST format. A
conversion for them is trivial: just add a missing titles
and fix some scape codes for them to match ReST syntax.

While here, rename the cdrom-standard.txt, with was converted
from LaTeX to ReST on the previous patch, and add it to the
index file.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

drivers/block: Remove DAC960 driver

The DAC960 driver has been obsoleted by the myrb/myrs drivers,
so it can be dropped.

drivers/block: remove redundant 'default n' from Kconfig-s

2018-10-10T20:11:08+00:00

'default n' is the default value for any bool or tristate Kconfig
setting so there is no need to write it explicitly.

Also since commit f467c5640c29 ("kconfig: only write '# CONFIG_FOO
is not set' for visible symbols") the Kconfig behavior is the same
regardless of 'default n' being present or not:

    ...
    One side effect of (and the main motivation for) this change is making
    the following two definitions behave exactly the same:

        config FOO
                bool

        config FOO
                bool
                default n

    With this change, neither of these will generate a
    '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line (assuming FOO isn't selected/implied).
    That might make it clearer to people that a bare 'default n' is
    redundant.

cdrom: Use struct scsi_sense_hdr internally

2018-08-02T21:22:39+00:00

This removes more casts of struct request_sense and uses the standard
struct scsi_sense_hdr instead. This also fixes any possible stale values
since the prior code did not check the sense length.

null_blk: remove explicit 'select FAULT_INJECTION'

2018-01-11T14:58:31+00:00

Selecting FAULT_INJECTION causes a Kconfig warning when CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL
is not set:

warning: (BLK_DEV_NULL_BLK && DRM_I915_SELFTEST) selects FAULT_INJECTION which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL)

The other drivers that use FAULT_INJECTION tend to have a separate
Kconfig symbol for turning on that feature, so let's do the same
thing here. This may add a bit more complexity than we like, but
it avoids the warning and is more consistent with the rest of the
kernel.

null_blk: add option for managing IO timeouts

2018-01-10T16:06:23+00:00

Use the fault injection framework to provide a way for null_blk
to configure timeouts. This only works for queue_mode 1 and 2,
since the bio mode doesn't have code for tracking timeouts.

Let's say you want to have a 10% chance of timing out every
100,000 requests, and for 5 total timeouts, you could do:

modprobe null_blk timeout="100000,10,0,5"

This is useful for adding blktests to test that IO timeouts
are handled appropriately.
