2008-12-29	block/blk-tag.c: cleanup kernel-doc	Qinghuang Feng	1	-1/+0
	There is no argument named @tags in blk_init_tags, remove its' comment. Signed-off-by: Qinghuang Feng <qhfeng.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-10-09	block: reserve some tags just for sync IO	Jens Axboe	1	-2/+12
	By only allowing async IO to consume 3/4 ths of the tag depth, we always have slots free to serve sync IO. This is important to avoid having writes fill the entire tag queue, thus starving reads. Original patch and idea from Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-10-09	Add some block/ source files to the kernel-api docbook. Fix kernel-doc notation in them as needed. Fix changed function parameter names. Fix typos/spellos. In comments, change REQ_SPECIAL to REQ_TYPE_SPECIAL and REQ_BLOCK_PC to REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC.	Randy Dunlap	1	-4/+4

2008-08-27	block: remove unused ->busy part of the block queue tag map	Matthew Wilcox	1	-4/+2
	It's not used for anything. On top of that, it's racy and can thus trigger a faulty BUG_ON() in __blk_free_tags() on queue exit. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-05-07	block: adjust tagging function queue bit locking	Jens Axboe	1	-3/+6
	For most initialization purposes, calling blk_queue_init_tags() without the queue lock held is OK. Only if called for resizing an existing map must the lock be held. Ditto for tag cleanup, the maps are reference counted. So switch the general queue flag setting to the unlocked variant, but retain the locked variant for resizing.

2008-05-01	block: remove remaining __FUNCTION__ occurrences	Harvey Harrison	1	-4/+4
	__FUNCTION__ is gcc specific, use __func__ Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison <harvey.harrison@gmail.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-04-29	block: make queue flags non-atomic	Nick Piggin	1	-4/+4
	We can save some atomic ops in the IO path, if we clearly define the rules of how to modify the queue flags. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-03-04	block/blk-tag.c should #include "blk.h"	Adrian Bunk	1	-0/+2
	Every file should include the headers containing the externs for its global functions (in this case for __blk_queue_free_tags()). Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-02-01	block: make core bits checkpatch compliant	Jens Axboe	1	-9/+3
	Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-01-29	block: split tag and sysfs handling from blk-core.c	Jens Axboe	1	-0/+396
	Seperates the tag and sysfs handling from ll_rw_blk. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
