Currently you must be root to set idle io prio class on a process. This
is due to the fact that the idle class is implemented as a true idle
class, meaning that it will not make progress if someone else is
requesting disk access. Unfortunately this means that it opens DOS
opportunities by locking down file system resources, hence it is root
only at the moment.
This patch relaxes the idle class a little, by removing the truly idle
part (which entals a grace period with associated timer). The
modifications make the idle class as close to zero impact as can be done
while still guarenteeing progress. This means we can relax the root only
criteria as well.

These DMA drain buffer implementations in drivers are pretty horrible
to do in terms of manipulating the scatterlist. Plus they're being
done at least in drivers/ide and drivers/ata, so we now have code
duplication.
The one use case for this, as I understand it is AHCI controllers doing
PIO mode to mmc devices but translating this to DMA at the controller
level.
So, what about adding a callback to the block layer that permits the
adding of the drain buffer for the problem devices. The idea is that
you'd do this in slave_configure after you find one of these devices.
The beauty of doing it in the block layer is that it quietly adds the
drain buffer to the end of the sg list, so it automatically gets mapped
(and unmapped) without anything unusual having to be done to the
scatterlist in driver/scsi or drivers/ata and without any alteration to
the transfer length.

The io context sharing introduced a per-ioc spinlock, that would protect
the cfq io context lookup. That is a regression from the original, since
we never needed any locking there because the ioc/cic were process private.
The cic lookup is changed from an rbtree construct to a radix tree, which
we can then use RCU to make the reader side lockless. That is the performance
critical path, modifying the radix tree is only done on process creation
(when that process first does IO, actually) and on process exit (if that
process has done IO).
As it so happens, radix trees are also much faster for this type of
lookup where the key is a pointer. It's a very sparse tree.

This patch merges complete_request() into end_that_request_last()
for cleanup.
complete_request() was introduced by earlier part of this patch-set,
not to break the existing users of end_that_request_last().
Since all users are converted to blk_end_request interfaces and
end_that_request_last() is no longer exported, the code can be

This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_bidi_request(),
which completes a bidi request.
Bidi request must be completed as a whole, both rq and rq->next_rq
at once. So the interface has 2 arguments for completion size.
As for ->end_io, only rq->end_io is called (rq->next_rq->end_io is not
called). So if special completion handling is needed, the handler
must be set to rq->end_io.
And the handler must take care of freeing next_rq too, since
the interface doesn't care of it if rq->end_io is not NULL.

This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_request_callback(),
which has driver callback feature.
Drivers may need to do special works between end_that_request_first()
and end_that_request_last().
For such drivers, blk_end_request_callback() allows it to pass
a callback function which is called between end_that_request_first()
and end_that_request_last().
This interface is only for fallback of other blk_end_request interfaces.
Drivers should avoid their tricky behaviors and use other interfaces
as much as possible.
Currently, only one driver, ide-cd, needs this interface.
So this interface should/will be removed, after the driver removes
such tricky behaviors.
o ide-cd (cdrom_newpc_intr())
In PIO mode, cdrom_newpc_intr() needs to defer end_that_request_last()
until the device clears DRQ_STAT and raises an interrupt after
end_that_request_first().
So end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last() are called
separately in cdrom_newpc_intr().
This means blk_end_request_callback() has to return without
completing request even if no leftover in the request.
To satisfy the requirement, callback function has return value
so that drivers can tell blk_end_request_callback() to return
without completing request.

This patch converts core parts of block layer to use blk_end_request
interfaces. Related 'uptodate' arguments are converted to 'error'.
'dequeue' argument was originally introduced for end_dequeued_request(),
where no attempt should be made to dequeue the request as it's already
dequeued.
However, it's not necessary as it can be checked with
list_empty(&rq->queuelist).
(Dequeued request has empty list and queued request doesn't.)
And it has been done in blk_end_request interfaces.
As a result of this patch, end_queued_request() and
end_dequeued_request() become identical. A future patch will merge
and rename them and change users of those functions.

This patch adds 2 new interfaces for request completion:
o blk_end_request() : called without queue lock
o __blk_end_request() : called with queue lock held
blk_end_request takes 'error' as an argument instead of 'uptodate',
which current end_that_request_* take.
The meanings of values are below and the value is used when bio is
completed.
0 : success
< 0 : error
Some device drivers call some generic functions below between
end_that_request_{first/chunk} and end_that_request_last().
o add_disk_randomness()
o blk_queue_end_tag()
o blkdev_dequeue_request()
These are called in the blk_end_request interfaces as a part of
generic request completion.
So all device drivers become to call above functions.
To decide whether to call blkdev_dequeue_request(), blk_end_request
uses list_empty(&rq->queuelist) (blk_queued_rq() macro is added for it).
So drivers must re-initialize it using list_init() or so before calling
blk_end_request if drivers use it for its specific purpose.
(Currently, there is no driver which completes request without
re-initializing the queuelist after used it. So rq->queuelist
can be used for the purpose above.)
"Normal" drivers can be converted to use blk_end_request()
in a standard way shown below.
a) end_that_request_{chunk/first}
spin_lock_irqsave()
(add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())
end_that_request_last()
spin_unlock_irqrestore()
=> blk_end_request()
b) spin_lock_irqsave()
end_that_request_{chunk/first}
(add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())
end_that_request_last()
spin_unlock_irqrestore()
=> spin_lock_irqsave()
__blk_end_request()
spin_unlock_irqsave()
c) spin_lock_irqsave()
(add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())

in the stack.
The reason for this is so that the SCSI mid-layer can relax the default

For the locking to work, only the tag map and tag bit map may be shared

the busy list! The busy_list must be queue private, or we need a
block_queue_tag covering lock as well.
So we have to move the busy_list to the queue. This'll work fine, and
it'll actually also fix a problem with blk_queue_invalidate_tags() which
will invalidate tags across all shared queues. This is a bit confusing,
the low level driver should call it for each queue seperately since
otherwise you cannot kill tags on just a single queue for eg a hard
drive that stops responding. Since the function has no callers

A number of different drivers incorrect access the kobject name field
directly. This is not correct as the name might not be in the array.
Use the proper accessor function instead.
This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete,
the 'size' argument is now redundant. Remove it.
Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed

The only caller of bio_endio that does not pass the full bi_size
is end_that_request_first. Also, no ->bi_end_io method is really
interested in bi_size being decremented.
So move the decrement and related code into ll_rw_blk and merge it
with order_bio_endio to form req_bio_endio which does endio functionality
specific to request completion.
As some ->bi_end_io methods do check bi_size of 0, we set it thus for
now, but that will go in the next patch.

There's a race condition in blk_queue_end_tag() for shared tag maps,
users include stex (promise supertrak thingy) and qla2xxx. The former
at least has reported bugs in this area, not sure why we haven't seen
any for the latter. It could be because the window is narrow and that
other conditions in the qla2xxx code hide this. It's a real bug,
though, as the stex smp users can attest.
We need to ensure two things - the tag bit clearing needs to happen
AFTER we cleared the tag pointer, as the tag bit clearing/setting is
what protects this map. Secondly, we need to ensure that the visibility
of the tag pointer and tag bit clear are ordered properly.

all the required barriers. -- Linus ]

Currently, bsg doesn't make class backlinks (a process whereby you'd get
a link to bsg in the device directory in the same way you get one for
sg). This is because the bsg device is uninitialised, so the class
device has nothing it can attach to. The fix is to make the bsg device
point to the cdevice of the entity creating the bsg, necessitating
changing the bsg_register_queue() prototype into a form that takes the
generic device.

This updates bsg entry in Kconfig:
- bsg supports sg v4
- bsg depends on SCSI
- it might be better to mark it experimental for a while

This adds a struct request pointer to the request structure for the
second data phase (bidi for now). A request queue supporting bidi
requests sets QUEUE_FLAG_BIDI. This prevents sending bidi requests to
a non-bidi queue.

The previous commit introduced a deadlock in discarding commands,
because we forget to unlock the bd spinlock.

This patch fixes a bug that read() returns ENODATA even with a
blocking file descriptor when there are no commands pending.
This also includes some cleanups.

This fixes the following minor issues:
- add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for bsg_register_queue and
bsg_unregister_queue.
- shut up gcc warnings

This patch addresses on two issues on bsg device allocation.
- the current maxium number of bsg devices is 256. It's too small if
we allocate bsg devices to all SCSI devices, transport entities, etc.
This increses the maxium number to 32768 (taken from the sg driver).
- SCSI devices are dynamically added and removed. Currently, bsg can't
handle it well since bsd_device->minor is simply increased.
This is dependent on the patchset that I posted yesterday:

This patch binds bsg to all SCSI devices (their request queues) like
the current sg driver does. We can send SCSI commands to non disk and
cdrom scsi devices like OSD via bsg.
This patch removes bsg_register_queue from blk_register_queue so bsg
devices aren't bound to non SCSI block devices. If they want bsg, I'll
send a patch to do that.

This patch binds bsg devices to request_queue instead of gendisk. Any
objects (like transport entities) can define own request_handler and
create own bsg device.

bsg uses scsi_cmd_ioctl() for some SCSI/sg ioctl
commands. scsi_cmd_ioctl() gets a request queue from a gendisk
arguement. This prevents bsg being bound to SCSI devices that don't
have a gendisk (like OSD). This adds a request_queue argument to
scsi_cmd_ioctl(). The SCSI/sg ioctl commands doesn't use a gendisk so
it's safe for any SCSI devices to use scsi_cmd_ioctl().

Just get rid of the preallocated command map, use the slab cache
to get/free commands instead.
Original patch from FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp>,
changed by me to not use a mempool.
