* ide: move read_sff_dma_status() method to 'struct ide_dma_ops'Sergei Shtylyov2009-01-0623-42/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | Move apparently misplaced read_sff_dma_status() method from 'struct ide_tp_ops' to 'struct ide_dma_ops', renaming it to dma_sff_read_status() and making only required for SFF-8038i compatible IDE controller drivers (greatly cutting down the number of initializers) as its only user (outside ide-dma-sff.c and such drivers) appears to be ide_pci_check_simplex() which is only called for such controllers...

* ide: don't set hwif->dma_ops in init_dma() methodSergei Shtylyov2009-01-063-6/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Replace setting of 'hwif->dma_ops' in the 'alim15x3' and 'palm_bk3710' drivers' init_dma() methods with initializing the corresponding member of their 'struct ide_port_info' instances and remove such setting from the 'hpt366' driver that just doesn't use 'sff_dma_ops'.

* Resurrect IT8172 IDE controller driverShane McDonald2009-01-064-0/+175
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Support for the IT8172 IDE controller was removed from the kernel sometime after 2.6.18. Support for the only boards that used the IT8172 was removed from the kernel after 2.6.18, as they had never compiled since 2.6.0. However, there are a couple of platforms that use this chip: the PMC-Sierra Xiao Hu thin-client computer, which is no longer in production, and the Linksys NSS4000 Network Attached Storage box, which is based on the Xiao Hu board. I am attempting to add support for the Xiao Hu to the kernel, and this IT8172 IDE controller is the first bit of code in this effort. This patch resurrects the IT8172 IDE controller code. I began with the 2.6.18 version of the it8172.c file, and have moved it forward so that it works with the latest version of the kernel. I have run this driver on a PMC-Sierra Xiao Hu board with the 2.6.28 kernel, and I have had no problems with it in my configuration. The attached patch applies cleanly against 2.6.28.

* ide: fix LOCKDEP warningBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2009-01-061-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 295f00042aaf6b553b5f37348f89bab463d4a469 ("ide: don't execute the next queued command from the hard-IRQ context") overlooked that ide_do_drive_cmd() (used for REQUEST SENSE command handling) may still invoke do_ide_request() (->request_fn) in the hard-IRQ context through blk_start_queueing(). This resulted in a LOCKDEP warning after commit b599bc7a1199419e122cb2e9ec6b0fa2cfbbc17b ("ide: use per-device request queue locks (v2)"). Since calling blk_start_queuing() in ide_do_drive_cmd() doesn't make much sense as the port is already marked as busy (so the execution of the new command will be deferred anyway) then just remove it fixing LOCKDEP warning and saving some CPU cycles at the same time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement simple read-only sysfs entry for device-mapper block device. This patch adds a simple sysfs directory named "dm" under block device properties and implements - name attribute (string containing mapped device name) - uuid attribute (string containing UUID, or empty string if not set) The kobject is embedded in mapped_device struct, so no additional memory allocation is needed for initializing sysfs entry. During the processing of sysfs attribute we need to lock mapped device which is done by a new function dm_get_from_kobj, which returns the md associated with kobject and increases the usage count. Each 'show attribute' function is responsible for its own locking. Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
| * dm table: rework reference countingMikulas Patocka2009-01-064-20/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rework table reference counting. The existing code uses a reference counter. When the last reference is dropped and the counter reaches zero, the table destructor is called. Table reference counters are acquired/released from upcalls from other kernel code (dm_any_congested, dm_merge_bvec, dm_unplug_all). If the reference counter reaches zero in one of the upcalls, the table destructor is called from almost random kernel code. This leads to various problems: * dm_any_congested being called under a spinlock, which calls the destructor, which calls some sleeping function. * the destructor attempting to take a lock that is already taken by the same process. * stale reference from some other kernel code keeps the table constructed, which keeps some devices open, even after successful return from "dmsetup remove". This can confuse lvm and prevent closing of underlying devices or reusing device minor numbers. The patch changes reference counting so that the table destructor can be called only at predetermined places. The table has always exactly one reference from either mapped_device->map or hash_cell->new_map. After this patch, this reference is not counted in table->holders. A pair of dm_create_table/dm_destroy_table functions is used for table creation/destruction. Temporary references from the other code increase table->holders. A pair of dm_table_get/dm_table_put functions is used to manipulate it. When the table is about to be destroyed, we wait for table->holders to reach 0. Then, we call the table destructor. We use active waiting with msleep(1), because the situation happens rarely (to one user in 5 years) and removing the device isn't performance-critical task: the user doesn't care if it takes one tick more or not. This way, the destructor is called only at specific points (dm_table_destroy function) and the above problems associated with lazy destruction can't happen. Finally remove the temporary protection added to dm_any_congested(). Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the following target interfaces for request-based dm. map_rq : for mapping a request rq_end_io : for finishing a request busy : for avoiding performance regression from bio-based dm. Target can tell dm core not to map requests now, and that may help requests in the block layer queue to be bigger by I/O merging. In bio-based dm, this behavior is done by device drivers managing the block layer queue. But in request-based dm, dm core has to do that since dm core manages the block layer queue.
