headers: smp_lock.h redux

2009-07-12T19:22:34+00:00

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
* Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
* Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
  It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT

  This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
  (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)

block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetch

2009-05-11T07:52:18+00:00

Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution.
A request is always acquired from the request queue via
elv_next_request().  After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it
or process it without dequeueing.  Dequeue allows elv_next_request()
to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight.

Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in
allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with
segments only without considering request boundary.  However, the
benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API
ambiguity is increasing.  Segment based drivers are usually for very
old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't
difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer
and its more modern users.

Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing
model.  This patch completes the API transition by...

* renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request()

* renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request()

* adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start

* disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests

* applying new API to all LLDs

Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that
it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

[ Impact: block request issue API cleanup, no functional change ]

block: convert to pos and nr_sectors accessors

2009-05-11T07:50:54+00:00

With recent cleanups, there is no place where low level driver
directly manipulates request fields.  This means that the 'hard'
request fields always equal the !hard fields.  Convert all
rq->sectors, nr_sectors and current_nr_sectors references to
accessors.

While at it, drop superflous blk_rq_pos() < 0 test in swim.c.

[ Impact: use pos and nr_sectors accessors ]

[PATCH] switch DAC960

[PATCH] beginning of methods conversion

2008-10-21T11:47:32+00:00

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers;
to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following:
	1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct
prototypes, make (few) callers handle both.  That's this changeset.
	2) for each driver convert to new methods.  *ALL* drivers
are converted in this series.
	3) kill the old (renamed) methods.

Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the
end of this series no trace of old methods remain.  The only reason why
we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver
debugging if anything goes wrong.

New methods:
	open(bdev, mode)
	release(disk, mode)
	ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)		/* Called without BKL */
	compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)
	locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)	/* Called with BKL, legacy */

converted many files to use the scatter gather helpers without ensuring
that the necessary headerfile  is included.  This
happened to work for ia64, powerpc, sparc64 and x86 because they
happened to drag in that file via their .

On most of the others this probably broke.

Instead of increasing the header file spider web I choose to include
 directly into the affectes files.
