* Add serial number support for virtio_blk, V4ajohn cooper2009-06-091-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch extracts the opaque data from pci i/o region 0 via the added VIRTIO_BLK_F_IDENTIFY field. By convention this data takes the form of that returned by an ATA IDENTIFY DEVICE command, however the driver (except for structure size) makes no interpretation of the data. The structure data is copied wholesale to userspace via a HDIO_GET_IDENTITY ioctl command (eg: hdparm -i <dev>).

* virtio_blk: SG_IO passthru supportHannes Reinecke2009-05-181-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for SG_IO passthru to virtio_blk. We add the scsi command block after the normal outhdr, and the scsi inhdr with full status information aswell as the sense buffer before the regular inhdr. [hch: forward ported, added the VIRTIO_BLK_F_SCSI flags, some comments and tested the whole beast] [axboe: updated to use ->resid and not dual-path the byte count] Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (+ checkpatch.pl tweak) Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* virtio_blk: check for hardsector size from hostChristian Borntraeger2008-07-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently virtio_blk assumes a 512 byte hard sector size. This can cause trouble / performance issues if the backing has a different block size (like a file on an ext3 file system formatted with 4k block size or a dasd). Lets add a feature flag that tells the guest to use a different hard sector size than 512 byte.

* virtio: clarify that ABI is usable by any implementationsRusty Russell2008-07-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We want others to implement and use virtio, so it makes sense to BSD license the non-__KERNEL__ parts of the headers to make this crystal clear.

* virtio_blk: fix endianess annotationsChristian Borntraeger2008-05-301-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Since commit 72e61eb40b55dd57031ec5971e810649f82b0259 (virtio: change config to guest endian) config space is no longer fixed endian. Lets change the virtio_blk_config variables.

* virtio_blk: allow read-only disksChristian Borntraeger2008-05-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Hello Rusty, sometimes it is useful to share a disk (e.g. usr). To avoid file system corruption, the disk should be mounted read-only in that case. This patch adds a new feature flag, that allows the host to specify, if the disk should be considered read-only.

* virtio: add virtio disk geometry featureRyan Harper2008-05-021-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | Rather than faking up some geometry, allow the backend to push the disk geometry via virtio pci config option. Keep the old geo code around for compatibility.

* virtio: de-structify virtio_block status byteRusty Russell2008-05-021-6/+1
| | | | | | | | | Ron Minnich points out that a struct containing a char is not always sizeof(char); simplest to remove the structure to avoid confusion. Cc: "ron minnich" <rminnich@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* virtio: remove unused id field from struct virtio_blk_outhdrRusty Russell2008-02-041-2/+0
| | | | | | | This field has been unused since an older version of virtio. Remove it now before we freeze the ABI. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au.
* virtio: simplify config mechanism.Rusty Russell2008-02-041-9/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously we used a type/len pair within the config space, but this seems overkill. We now simply define a structure which represents the layout in the config space: the config space can now only be extended at the end. The main driver-visible changes: 1) We indicate what fields are present with an explicit feature bit. 2) Virtqueues are explicitly numbered, and not in the config space.

* Block driver using virtio.Rusty Russell2007-10-231-0/+51
The block driver uses scatter-gather lists with sg[0] being the request information (struct virtio_blk_outhdr) with the type, sector and inbuf id. The next N sg entries are the bio itself, then the last sg is the status byte. Whether the N entries are in or out depends on whether it's a read or a write. We accept the normal (SCSI) ioctls: they get handed through to the other side which can then handle it or reply that it's unsupported. It's not clear that this actually works in general, since I don't know if blk_pc_request() requests have an accurate rq_data_dir(). Although we try to reply -ENOTTY on unsupported commands, ioctl(fd, CDROMEJECT) returns success to userspace. This needs a separate patch.
