2008-05-30	[S390] tape: fix race with stack local wait_queue_head_t.	Martin Schwidefsky	1	-0/+3
	A wait_event call with a stack local wait_queue_head_t structure that is used to do the wake up for the wait_event is inherently racy. After the wait_event finished the wake_up call might not have completed yet. Replace the stack local wait_queue_head_t in tape_do_io and tape_do_io_interruptible with a per device wait queue.

2007-07-24	[BLOCK] Get rid of request_queue_t typedef	Jens Axboe	1	-1/+1
	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. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-05-04	[S390] tape: New read configuration data.	Michael Holzheu	1	-0/+1
	Instead of the deprecated read_conf_data(), implement a new function tape_3590_read_dev_chars(). Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2007-02-05	[S390] Add crypto support for 3592 tape devices	Michael Holzheu	1	-6/+16
	3592 tape devices are able to write data encrpyted on tape mediums. This z/Linux device driver support includes the following functions: * ioctl to switch on/off encryption * ioctl to query encryption status of drive * ioctls to set and query key encrypting keys (kekls) * long busy interrupt handling Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2006-03-24	[PATCH] s390: fix endless retry loop in tape driver	Michael Holzheu	1	-0/+1
	If a tape device is assigned to another host, the interrupt for the assign operation comes back with deferred condition code 1. Under some conditions this can lead to an endless loop of retries. Check if the current request is still in IO in deferred condition code handling and prevent retries when the request has already been cancelled.

	Tape driver fixes: - Added deferred condition handling to tape driver core. - Added ability to handle busy conditions. - Code cleanup. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+384
	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!
