2010-03-08[S390] dasd: automatic recognition of read-only devicesStefan Weinhuber1-1/+2
In z/VM it is possible to attach a device as read-only. To prevent unintentional write requests and subsequent I/O errors, we can detect this configuration using the z/VM DIAG 210 interface and set the respective linux block device to read-only as well.

2010-02-26[S390] dasd: fix online/offline raceStefan Haberland1-0/+1
Setting a DASD online and offline in quick succession may cause a kernel panic or let the chhccwdev command wait forever. The Online process is split into two parts. After the first part is finished the offline process may be called. This may result in a situation where the second online processing part tries to set the DASD offline as well. Use a mutex to protect online and offline against each other. Also correct some checking.

2008-01-26[S390] dasd: add hyper PAV support to DASD device driver, part 1Stefan Weinhuber1-40/+36
Parallel access volumes (PAV) is a storage server feature, that allows to start multiple channel programs on the same DASD in parallel. It defines alias devices which can be used as alternative paths to the same disk. With the old base PAV support we only needed rudimentary functionality in the DASD device driver. As the mapping between base and alias devices was static, we just had to export an identifier (uid) and could leave the combining of devices to external layers like a device mapper multipath. Now hyper PAV removes the requirement to dedicate alias devices to specific base devices. Instead each alias devices can be combined with multiple base device on a per request basis. This requires full support by the DASD device driver as now each channel program itself has to identify the target base device. The changes to the dasd device driver and the ECKD discipline are: - Separate subchannel device representation (dasd_device) from block device representation (dasd_block). Only base devices are block devices. - Gather information about base and alias devices and possible combinations. - For each request decide which dasd_device should be used (base or alias) and build specific channel program. - Support summary unit checks, which allow the storage server to upgrade / downgrade between base and hyper PAV at runtime (support is mandatory).

2006-03-08[PATCH] s390: dasd partition detectionHorst Hummel1-2/+0
DASD allows to open a device as soon as gendisk is registered, which means the device is a fake device (capacity=0) and we do know nothing about blocksize and partitions at that point of time. In case the device is opened by someone, the bdev and inode creation is done with the fake device info and the following partition detection code is just using the wrong data. To avoid this modify the DASD state machine to make sure that the open is rejected until the device analysis is either finished or an unformatted device was detected.

2005-09-05[PATCH] s390: deadlock in dasd_devmapHorst Hummel1-7/+3
Reintroduce a read-only copy of the devmap features in the device struct. This is necessary to solve a deadlock on the dasd_devmap_lock which is acquired by dasd_get_features called from the dasd tasklet. The current implementation of devmap doesn't allow to call any devmap function from interrupt or softirq context.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+185
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
