[BLOCK] Get rid of request_queue_t typedef

2007-07-24T07:28:11+00:00

Some of the code has been gradually transitioned to using the proper
struct request_queue, but there's lots left. So do a full sweet of
the kernel and get rid of this typedef and replace its uses with
the proper type.

[PATCH] fix request->cmd == INT cases

2007-07-10T06:03:34+00:00

 - I have unearthed very old bugs in stale drivers that still
   used request->cmd as a READ|WRITE int
 - This patch is maybe a proof that these drivers have not been
   used for a long time. Should they be removed completely?

Drivers that currently do not work for sure:
 drivers/acorn/block/fd1772.c |    2 +-
 drivers/acorn/block/mfmhd.c  |    8 ++++----
 drivers/cdrom/aztcd.c        |    2 +-
 drivers/cdrom/cm206.c        |    2 +-
 drivers/cdrom/gscd.c         |    2 +-
 drivers/cdrom/mcdx.c         |    2 +-
 drivers/cdrom/optcd.c        |    2 +-
 drivers/cdrom/sjcd.c         |    2 +-

Drivers with cosmetic fixes only:

[PATCH] nbd: show nbd client pid in sysfs

2006-12-07T16:39:47+00:00

Allow nbd to expose the nbd-client daemon's PID in /sys/block/nbd/pid.

This is helpful for tracking connection status of a device and for
determining which nbd devices are currently in use.

[PATCH] Split struct request ->flags into two parts

2006-09-30T18:23:37+00:00

Right now ->flags is a bit of a mess: some are request types, and
others are just modifiers. Clean this up by splitting it into
->cmd_type and ->cmd_flags. This allows introduction of generic
Linux block message types, useful for sending generic Linux commands
to block devices.

[PATCH] nbd: Abort request on data reception failure

2006-07-31T20:28:39+00:00

When reading from nbd device, we need to receive all the data after
receiving reply packet from the server - otherwise such request will never
be ended.

If socket is closed right after accepting reply control packet and in the
middle of waiting for read data, nbd_read_stat() returns NULL and
nbd_end_request() is not called.

This patch fixes it.

[PATCH] nbd: Check magic before doing anything else

2006-07-31T20:28:39+00:00

We should check magic sequence in reply packet before trying to find
request with it's request handle.  This also solves the problem with
"Unexpected reply" message beeing logged, when packet with invalid magic is
received.
