2009-09-23seq_file: constify seq_operationsJames Morris1-1/+1
Make all seq_operations structs const, to help mitigate against revectoring user-triggerable function pointers. This is derived from the grsecurity patch, although generated from scratch because it's simpler than extracting the changes from there.

2009-09-23virtio_blk: add support for cache flushChristoph Hellwig1-5/+25
Recent qemu has added a VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH flag to advertise that the virtual disk has a volatile write cache that needs to be flushed. In case we see this feature implement tell the Linux block layer about the fact and use the new VIRTIO_BLK_T_FLUSH to flush the cache when required. This allows for an correct and simple implementation of write barriers. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2009-09-23virtio: make add_buf return capacity remainingRusty Russell1-1/+1
This API change means that virtio_net can tell how much capacity remains for buffers. It's necessarily fuzzy, since VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC means we can fit any number of descriptors in one, *if* we can kmalloc.

2009-09-19Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissionsKay Sievers2-5/+5
This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero, random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no other userspace process applies the expected permissions.

[ 5259.349990] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] The bio in question is a barrier. Jens Axboe suggested that such bios need to be recognized and ended with -EOPNOTSUPP by any driver that provides its own ->make_request_fn handler and does not handle barriers. In testing the changes below eliminate the BUG. (Better would be real barrier support, something that Ed says he'll add for later in the .32 cycle.

2009-07-03cciss: Ignore stale commands after rebootHannes Reinecke2-2/+14
When doing an unexpected shutdown like kexec the cciss firmware might still have some commands in flight, which it is trying to complete. The driver is doing it's best on resetting the HBA, but sadly there's a firmware issue causing the firmware _not_ to abort or drop old commands. So the firmware will send us commands which we haven't accounted for, causing the driver to panic. With this patch we're just ignoring these commands as there is nothing we could be doing with them anyway.

2009-06-24osdblk: a Linux block device for OSD objectsJeff Garzik3-0/+711
Submitted driver exports a block device of the form /dev/osdblkX, where X is a decimal number. It does that by mounting a stacking block device on top of an osd object. For example, if you create a 2G object on an OSD device, you can then use this module to present that 2G object as a Linux block device. See inside patch for exact documentation.

2009-06-15debugfs: Fix terminology inconsistency of dir name to mount debugfs filesystem.GeunSik Lim1-1/+1
Many developers use "/debug/" or "/debugfs/" or "/sys/kernel/debug/" directory name to mount debugfs filesystem for ftrace according to ./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file. And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation, Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem. debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah hartman. "/sys/kernel/debug/" name is suitable as directory name of debugfs filesystem. - debugfs related reference: http://lwn.net/Articles/334546/ Fix inconsistency of directory name to mount debugfs filesystem. * From Steven Rostedt - find_debugfs() and tracing_files() in this patch.
