* | [PATCH] cciss: adds MSI and MSI-X supportMike Miller2006-01-083-13/+84
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This creates a new function, cciss_interrupt_mode called from cciss_pci_init. This function determines what type of interrupt vector to use, i.e., MSI, MSI-X, or IO-APIC. One noticeable difference is changing the interrupt field of the controller struct to an array of 4 unsigned ints. The Smart Array HW is capable of generating 4 distinct interrupts depending on the transport method in use during operation. These are: #define DOORBELL_INT 0 Used to notify the contoller of configuration updates. We only use this feature when in polling mode. #define PERF_MODE_INT 0 Used when the controller is in Performant Mode. #define SIMPLE_MODE_INT 2 Used when the controller is in Simple Mode (current Linux implementation). #define MEMQ_INT_MODE 3 Not used. When using IO-APIC interrupts these 4 lines are OR'ed together so when any one fires an interrupt an is generated. In MSI or MSI-X mode this hardware OR'ing is ignored. We must register for our interrupt depending on what mode the controller is running. For Linux we use SIMPLE_MODE_INT exclusively at this time. Please consider this for inclusion.

* | [PATCH] Add block_device_operations.getgeo block device methodChristoph Hellwig2006-01-0814-270/+196
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.

| * [BLOCK] add @uptodate to end_that_request_last() and @error to rq_end_io_fn()Tejun Heo2006-01-068-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* | [PATCH] nbd: fix TX/RX race conditionHerbert Xu2006-01-061-62/+60
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Janos Haar of First NetCenter Bt. reported numerous crashes involving the NBD driver. With his help, this was tracked down to bogus bio vectors which in turn was the result of a race condition between the receive/transmit routines in the NBD driver. The bug manifests itself like this: CPU0 CPU1 do_nbd_request add req to queuelist nbd_send_request send req head for each bio kmap send nbd_read_stat nbd_find_request nbd_end_request kunmap When CPU1 finishes nbd_end_request, the request and all its associated bio's are freed. So when CPU0 calls kunmap whose argument is derived from the last bio, it may crash. Under normal circumstances, the race occurs only on the last bio. However, if an error is encountered on the remote NBD server (such as an incorrect magic number in the request), or if there were a bug in the server, it is possible for the nbd_end_request to occur any time after the request's addition to the queuelist. The following patch fixes this problem by making sure that requests are not added to the queuelist until after they have been completed transmission. In order for the receiving side to be ready for responses involving requests still being transmitted, the patch introduces the concept of the active request. When a response matches the current active request, its processing is delayed until after the tranmission has come to a stop. This has been tested by Janos and it has been successful in curing this race condition. From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Here is an updated patch which removes the active_req wait in nbd_clear_queue and the associated memory barrier. I've also clarified this in the comment.

| * [PATCH] add AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE, prepend AOP_ to WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATEZach Brown2006-01-032-7/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | readpage(), prepare_write(), and commit_write() callers are updated to understand the special return code AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE in the style of writepage() and WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE. AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE tells the caller that the callee has unlocked the page and that the operation should be tried again with a new page. OCFS2 uses this to detect and work around a lock inversion in its aop methods. There should be no change in behaviour for methods that don't return AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE. WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE is also prepended with AOP_ for consistency and they are made enums so that kerneldoc can be used to document their semantics. Signed-off-by: Zach Brown <zach.brown@oracle.com>
