      "message": "cfq-iosched: do not leak ioc_data across iosched switches\n\nWhen switching scheduler from cfq, cfq_exit_queue() does not clear\nioc-\u003eioc_data, leaving a dangling pointer that can deceive the following\nlookups when the iosched is switched back to cfq.  The pattern that can\ntrigger that is the following:\n\n    - elevator switch from cfq to something else;\n    - module unloading, with elv_unregister() that calls cfq_free_io_context()\n      on ioc freeing the cic (via the .trim op);\n    - module gets reloaded and the elevator switches back to cfq;\n    - reallocation of a cic at the same address as before (with a valid key).\n\nTo fix it just assign NULL to ioc_data in __cfq_exit_single_io_context(),\nthat is called from the regular exit path and from the elevator switching\ncode.  The only path that frees a cic and is not covered is the error handling\none, but cic\u0027s freed in this way are never cached in ioc_data.\n\nSigned-off-by: Fabio Checconi \u003cfabio@gandalf.sssup.it\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjens.axboe@oracle.com\u003e\n"

      "message": "Fix bounce setting for 64-bit\n\nLooking a bit closer into this regression the reason this can\u0027t be\nright is that dma_addr common default is BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH and most\nmachines have less than 4G. So if you do:\n\n    if (b_pfn \u003c\u003d (min_t(u64, 0xffffffff, BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH) \u003e\u003e PAGE_SHIFT))\n\tdma \u003d 1\n\nthat will translate to:\n\n     if (BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH \u003c\u003d BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH)\n     \tdma \u003d 1\n\nSo for 99% of hardware this will trigger unnecessary GFP_DMA\nallocations and isa pooling operations.\n\nAlso note how the 32bit code still does b_pfn \u003c blk_max_low_pfn.\n\nI guess this is what you were looking after. I didn\u0027t verify but as\nfar as I can tell, this will stop the regression with isa dma\noperations at boot for 99% of blkdev/memory combinations out there and\nI guess this fixes the setups with \u003e4G of ram and 32bit pci cards as\nwell (this also retains symmetry with the 32bit code).\n\nSigned-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli \u003candrea@qumranet.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjens.axboe@oracle.com\u003e\n"

This patch restores the meaning of rq-\u003edata_len to the true data\nlength and adds rq-\u003eextra_len to store an extended length (due to\ndrain buffer and padding).\n\nThis patch also removes the code to update bio in blk_rq_map_user\nintroduced by the commit 40b01b9bbdf51ae543a04744283bf2d56c4a6afa.\nThe commit adjusts bio according to memory alignment\n(queue_dma_alignment).

Unfortunately this means that it opens DOS\nopportunities by locking down file system resources, hence it is root\nonly at the moment.\n\nThis patch relaxes the idle class a little, by removing the truly idle\npart (which entals a grace period with associated timer). The\nmodifications make the idle class as close to zero impact as can be done\nwhile still guarenteeing progress. This means we can relax the root only\ncriteria as well.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjens.axboe@oracle.com\u003e\n"

The idea is that\nyou\u0027d do this in slave_configure after you find one of these devices.\n\nThe beauty of doing it in the block layer is that it quietly adds the\ndrain buffer to the end of the sg list, so it automatically gets mapped\n(and unmapped) without anything unusual having to be done to the\nscatterlist in driver/scsi or drivers/ata and without any alteration to\nthe transfer length.\n\nSigned-off-by: James Bottomley \u003cJames.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjens.axboe@oracle.com\u003e\n"

But we also share\nthe busy list!  The busy_list must be queue private, or we need a\nblock_queue_tag covering lock as well.\n\nSo we have to move the busy_list to the queue. This\u0027ll work fine, and\nit\u0027ll actually also fix a problem with blk_queue_invalidate_tags() which\nwill invalidate tags across all shared queues. This is a bit confusing,\nthe low level driver should call it for each queue seperately since\notherwise you cannot kill tags on just a single queue for eg a hard\ndrive that stops responding.
