      "message": "block: fix diskstats access\n\nThere are two variants of stat functions - ones prefixed with double\nunderbars which don\u0027t care about preemption and ones without which\ndisable preemption before manipulating per-cpu counters.  It\u0027s unclear\nwhether the underbarred ones assume that preemtion is disabled on\nentry as some callers don\u0027t do that.\n\nThis patch unifies diskstats access by implementing disk_stat_lock()\nand disk_stat_unlock() which take care of both RCU (for partition\naccess) and preemption (for per-cpu counter access).  diskstats access\nshould always be enclosed between the two functions.  As such, there\u0027s\nno need for the versions which disables preemption.  They\u0027re removed\nand double underbars ones are renamed to drop the underbars.  As an\nextra argument is added, there\u0027s no danger of using the old version\nunconverted.\n\ndisk_stat_lock() uses get_cpu() and returns the cpu index and all\ndiskstat functions which access per-cpu counters now has @cpu\nargument to help RT.\n\nThis change adds RCU or preemption operations at some places but also\ncollapses several preemption ops into one at others.  Overall, the\nperformance difference should be negligible as all involved ops are\nvery lightweight per-cpu ones.\n\nSigned-off-by: Tejun Heo \u003ctj@kernel.org\u003e\nCc: Peter Zijlstra \u003cpeterz@infradead.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjens.axboe@oracle.com\u003e\n"

      "message": "block: add request-\u003eraw_data_len\n\nWith padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend\nrequests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two\nsizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches\nthe size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs.  The latter size\nis what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating,\nfilling up DMA tables and setting up the controller.\n\nBoth padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate\ncontroller characteristics.  As any controller which speaks SCSI can\nhandle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe.\n\nSo, this patch makes the primary data length field, request-\u003edata_len,\nindicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field,\nrequest-\u003eraw_data_len, for the unmodified request size.  The latter is\nused to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original\nrequest size should be fed to the controller or device.\n\nSigned-off-by: Tejun Heo \u003chtejun@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: James Bottomley \u003cJames.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjens.axboe@oracle.com\u003e\n"
