[PATCH] ide: Allow IDE interface to specify its not capable of 32-bit operations

2006-03-24T15:33:28+00:00

In some embedded systems the IDE hardware interface may only support 16-bit
or smaller accesses.  Allow the interface to specify if this is the case
and don't allow the drive or user to override the setting.

[PATCH] drivers/ide/ide-io.c: make __ide_end_request() static

2006-02-03T16:32:12+00:00

Since there's no longer any external user, we can make __ide_end_request()
static.

[PATCH] stop CompactFlash devices being marked as removable

2006-02-03T16:32:12+00:00

This patch stops CompactFlash devices being marked as removable.  They are
not removable (as defined by Linux) as the media and device are
inseparable.  When a card is removed, the whole device is removed from the
system and never sits in a media-less state.

This stops some nasty udev device creation/destruction loops.

Further, once this change is made, there is no need for ide to can be
removed from ide_drive_t.

[PATCH] Revert ide softirq handling

2006-01-12T20:00:47+00:00

There's a problem with the REQ_BLOCK_PC handling as well (bad ->data_len
handling) where it could actually complete a request ahead of time.  I
suggest we just back this out for now, I will resubmit it later when I'm
fully confident in it.

This reverts commit 8672d57138b34447719cd7749f3d21070e1175a1

[PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to completion: IDE ->gendev_rel_sem

2006-01-09T23:59:27+00:00

The patch changes semaphores that are initialized as
locked to complete().

Source: MontaVista Software, Inc.

Modified-by: Steven Rostedt 

The following patch is from Montavista.  I modified it slightly.
Semaphores are currently being used where it makes more sense for
completions.  This patch corrects that.

[IDE] Use the block layer deferred softirq request completion

2006-01-09T15:03:35+00:00

This patch makes IDE use the new blk_complete_request() interface.
There's still room for improvement, as __ide_end_request() really
could drop the lock after getting HWGROUP->rq (why does it need to
hold it in the first place? If ->rq access isn't serialized, we are
screwed anyways).

[PATCH] Change maxaligned_in_smp alignemnt macros to internodealigned_in_smp macros

2006-01-09T04:13:38+00:00

____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp is currently used to align critical structures
and avoid false sharing.  It uses per-arch L1_CACHE_SHIFT_MAX and people find
L1_CACHE_SHIFT_MAX useless.

However, we have been using ____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp to align
structures on the internode cacheline size.  As per Andi's suggestion,
following patch kills ____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp and introduces
INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT, which defaults to L1_CACHE_SHIFT for all arches.
Arches needing L3/Internode cacheline alignment can define
INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT in the arch asm/cache.h.  Patch replaces
____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp with ____cacheline_internodealigned_in_smp

With this patch, L1_CACHE_SHIFT_MAX can be killed
