2006-03-28[PATCH] ll_rw_blk: fix 80-col offender in put_io_context()Jens Axboe1-1/+3
This makes akpm more happy. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-03-28[PATCH] [BLOCK] cfq-iosched: change cfq io context linking from list to treeJens Axboe1-6/+13
On setups with many disks, we spend a considerable amount of time looking up the process-disk mapping on each queue of io. Testing with a NULL based block driver, this costs 40-50% reduction in throughput for 1000 disks. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-03-08[PATCH] block: disable block layer bouncing for most memory on 64bit systemsAndi Kleen1-14/+19
The low level PCI DMA mapping functions should handle it in most cases. This should fix problems with depleting the DMA zone early. The old code used precious GFP_DMA memory in many cases where it was not needed.

2006-02-08[PATCH] block: implement elv_insert and use it (fix ordcolor flipping bug)Tejun Heo1-2/+2
q->ordcolor must only be flipped on initial queueing of a hardbarrier request. Constructing ordered sequence and requeueing used to pass through __elv_add_request() which flips q->ordcolor when it sees a barrier request. This patch separates out elv_insert() from __elv_add_request() and uses elv_insert() when constructing ordered sequence and requeueing. elv_insert() inserts the given request at the specified position and does nothing else.

2006-02-05[PATCH] fix ordering on requeued request drainageJens Axboe1-22/+16
Previously, if a fs request which was being drained failed and got requeued, blk_do_ordered() didn't allow it to be reissued, which causes queue stall. This patch makes blk_do_ordered() use the sequence of each request to determine whether a request can be issued or not. This fixes the bug and simplifies code.

2006-02-05[PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUsEric Dumazet1-1/+1
percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus. As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS loops to use for_each_cpu(). (The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h. powerpc has gone it alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's currently corrupting memory).

2006-01-09[BLOCK] ll_rw_blk: Enable out-of-order request completions through softirqJens Axboe1-1/+105
Request completion can be a quite heavy process, since it needs to iterate through the entire request and complete the bio's it holds. This patch adds blk_complete_request() which moves this processing into a dedicated block softirq. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-01-09[BLOCK] Kill blk_attempt_remerge()Jens Axboe1-24/+0
It's a broken interface, it's done way too late. And apparently it triggers slab problems in recent kernels as well (most likely after the generic dispatch code was merged). So kill it, ide-cd is the only user of it. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-01-06[BLOCK] add @uptodate to end_that_request_last() and @error to rq_end_io_fn()Tejun Heo1-7/+15
add @uptodate argument to end_that_request_last() and @error to rq_end_io_fn(). there's no generic way to pass error code to request completion function, making generic error handling of non-fs request difficult (rq->errors is driver-specific and each driver uses it differently). this patch adds @uptodate to end_that_request_last() and @error to rq_end_io_fn(). for fs requests, this doesn't really matter, so just using the same uptodate argument used in the last call to end_that_request_first() should suffice. imho, this can also help the generic command-carrying request jens is working on.

2005-12-15[SCSI] seperate max_sectors from max_hw_sectorsMike Christie1-8/+26
- export __blk_put_request and blk_execute_rq_nowait needed for async REQ_BLOCK_PC requests - seperate max_hw_sectors and max_sectors for block/scsi_ioctl.c and SG_IO bio.c helpers per Jens's last comments. Since block/scsi_ioctl.c SG_IO was already testing against max_sectors and SCSI-ml was setting max_sectors and max_hw_sectors to the same value this does not change any scsi SG_IO behavior. It only prepares ll_rw_blk.c, scsi_ioctl.c and bio.c for when SCSI-ml begins to set a valid max_hw_sectors for all LLDs. Today if a LLD does not set it SCSI-ml sets it to a safe default and some LLDs set it to a artificial low value to overcome memory and feedback issues. Note: Since we now cap max_sectors to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS, which is 1024, drivers that used to call blk_queue_max_sectors with a large value of max_sectors will now see the fs requests capped to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS.
