Prepare for\nthis change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those\nheaders directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion\nneeds to touch large number of source files, the following script is\nused as the basis of conversion.\n\n http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py\n\nThe script does the followings.\n\n* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that\n only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,\n gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.\n\n* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include\n blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms\n to its surrounding. It\u0027s put in the include block which contains\n core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -\n alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there\n doesn\u0027t seem to be any matching order.\n\n* If the script can\u0027t find a place to put a new include (mostly\n because the file doesn\u0027t have fitting include block), it prints out\n an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the\n file.\n\nThe conversion was done in the following steps.\n\n1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly\n over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h\n and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400\n files.\n\n2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn\u0027t need the inclusion,\n some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or\n embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added\n inclusions to around 150 files.\n\n3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits\n from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.\n\n4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.\n e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab\n APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.\n\n5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically\n editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h\n files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h\n inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually\n wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each\n slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as\n necessary.\n\n6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.\n\n7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures\n were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my\n distributed build env didn\u0027t work with gcov compiles) and a few\n more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things\n build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).\n\n * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.\n * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig\n * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig\n * ia64 SMP allmodconfig\n * s390 SMP allmodconfig\n * alpha SMP allmodconfig\n * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig\n\n8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as\n a separate patch and serve as bisection point.\n\nGiven the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step\n6, I\u0027m fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.\nIf there is a breakage, it\u0027s likely to be something in one of the arch\nheaders which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of\nthe specific arch.\n\nSigned-off-by: Tejun Heo \u003ctj@kernel.org\u003e\nGuess-its-ok-by: Christoph Lameter \u003ccl@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Lee Schermerhorn \u003cLee.Schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "627a2d3c29427637f4c5d31ccc7fcbd8d312cd71", "tree": "f0de68842ca3b47d0152254e60d31cc561009119", "parents": [ "25cf84cf377c0aae5dbcf937ea89bc7893db5176" ], "author": { "name": "NeilBrown", "email": "neilb@suse.de", "time": "Mon Mar 08 16:44:38 2010 +1100" }, "committer": { "name": "NeilBrown", "email": "neilb@suse.de", "time": "Tue Mar 16 17:04:24 2010 +1100" }, "message": "md: deal with merge_bvec_fn in component devices better.\n\nIf a component device has a merge_bvec_fn then as we never call it\nwe must ensure we never need to.

Thus when\na personality finds mddev-\u003ebarrier to be set during make_request,\nit should not return from make_request until the corresponding\nper-device request(s) have been queued.\n\nThat will be done in later patches.\n\nSigned-off-by: NeilBrown \u003cneilb@suse.de\u003e\nReviewed-by: Andre Noll \u003cmaan@systemlinux.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "3fa841d7e7266f6fcc1b3885b905f5153ba897d8", "tree": "7afa971a10eddcf52787340ea43fa1e910b5805b", "parents": [ "0da3c6194ec2f32617b272df4505a1cf022faea5" ], "author": { "name": "NeilBrown", "email": "neilb@suse.de", "time": "Wed Sep 23 18:10:29 2009 +1000" }, "committer": { "name": "NeilBrown", "email": "neilb@suse.de", "time": "Wed Sep 23 18:10:29 2009 +1000" }, "message": "md: report device as congested when suspended\n\nThis should writeback from coming when the device is temporarily\nsuspended.\n\nSigned-off-by: NeilBrown \u003cneilb@suse.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "1f98a13f623e0ef666690a18c1250335fc6d7ef1", "tree": "15ca2dddffaa18a0d1844957f4f8cc707cbb8117", "parents": [ "e7e503aedb1f4d165081cb8d47a58c38f80f0cb4" ], "author": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "jens.axboe@oracle.com", "time": "Fri Sep 11 14:32:04 2009 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "jens.axboe@oracle.com", "time": "Fri Sep 11 14:33:31 2009 +0200" }, "message": "bio: first step in sanitizing the bio-\u003ebi_rw flag testing\n\nGet rid of any functions that test for these bits and make callers\nuse bio_rw_flagged() directly.

device.\n\nab5bd5cbc8d4b868378d062eed3d4240930fbb86 introduced the following\nbug in linear software raid for large arrays on 32 bit machines:\n\nwhich_dev() computes the device holding a given sector by shifting\ndown the sector number to a 32 bit range, dividing by the array\nspacing and looking up the resulting index in the hash table of\nthe array.\n\nBecause the computed index might be slightly too small, a loop at\nthe end of which_dev() increases the index until the given sector\nactually falls into the range of the device associated with that index.\n\nThe changes of the above mentioned commit caused this loop to check\nwhether the _index_ rather than the sector number is small enough,\neffectively bypassing the loop and thus possibly returning the wrong\ndevice.\n\nAs reported by Simon Kirby, this leads to errors such as\n\n\tlinear_make_request: Sector 2340486136 out of bounds on dev sdi: 156301312 sectors, offset 2109870464\n\nFix this bug by introducing a local

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" }, { "commit": "8a392625b665c676a77c62f8608d10ff430bcb83", "tree": "4000a65d61baed73200e47f91dea5263ed16edd0", "parents": [ "519f0141f1c42e2b8b59c7dea005cbf6095358e8", "4b80991c6cb9efa607bc4fd6f3ecdf5511c31bb0" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Jul 21 10:29:12 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Jul 21 10:29:12 2008 -0700" }, "message": "Merge branch \u0027for-linus\u0027 of git://neil.brown.name/md\n\n* \u0027for-linus\u0027 of git://neil.brown.name/md: (52 commits)\n md: Protect access to mddev-\u003edisks list using RCU\n md: only count actual openers as access which prevent a \u0027stop\u0027\n md: linear: Make array_size sector-based and rename it to array_sectors.\n md: Make mddev-\u003earray_size sector-based.\n md: Make super_type-\u003erdev_size_change() take sector-based sizes.\n md: Fix check for overlapping devices.\n md: Tidy up rdev_size_store a bit:\n md: Remove some unused macros.\n md: Turn rdev-\u003esb_offset into a sector-based quantity.\n md: Make calc_dev_sboffset() return a sector count.\n md: Replace calc_dev_size() by calc_num_sectors().\n md: Make update_size() take the number of sectors.\n md: Better control of when do_md_stop is allowed to stop the array.\n md: get_disk_info(): Don\u0027t convert between signed and unsigned and back.\n md: Simplify restart_array().\n md: alloc_disk_sb(): Return proper error value.\n md: Simplify sb_equal().\n md: Simplify uuid_equal().\n md: sb_equal(): Fix misleading printk.\n md: Fix a typo in the comment to cmd_match().\n ...\n" }, { "commit": "d6e2215052810678bc9782fd980b52706fc71f50", "tree": "63f355d1e072b6c4c48913e114c0154a5b08d792", "parents": [ "f233ea5c9e0d8b95e4283bf6a3436b88f6fd3586" ], "author": { "name": "Andre Noll", "email": "maan@systemlinux.org", "time": "Mon Jul 21 17:05:25 2008 +1000" }, "committer": { "name": "NeilBrown", "email": "neilb@suse.de", "time": "Mon Jul 21 17:05:25 2008 +1000" }, "message": "md: linear: Make array_size sector-based and rename it to array_sectors.\n\nSigned-off-by: Andre Noll \u003cmaan@systemlinux.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: NeilBrown \u003cneilb@suse.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f233ea5c9e0d8b95e4283bf6a3436b88f6fd3586", "tree": "8a36b621de46da23f3957c6e3ea4d653c2937544", "parents": [ "15f4a5fdf3aa07b53f6a7969664741db5882e485" ], "author": { "name": "Andre Noll", "email": "maan@systemlinux.org", "time": "Mon Jul 21 17:05:22 2008 +1000" }, "committer": { "name": "NeilBrown", "email": "neilb@suse.de", "time": "Mon Jul 21 17:05:22 2008 +1000" }, "message": "md: Make mddev-\u003earray_size sector-based.\n\nThis patch renames the array_size field of struct mddev_s to array_sectors\nand converts all instances to use units of 512 byte sectors instead of 1k\nblocks.\n\nSigned-off-by: Andre Noll \u003cmaan@systemlinux.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: NeilBrown \u003cneilb@suse.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "cc371e66e340f35eed8dc4651c7c18e754c7fb26", "tree": "5a2d6727eb07a05999c531a90da43ab1c36b713e", "parents": [ "b24498d477a14680fc3bb3ad884fa9fa76a2d237" ], "author": { "name": "Alasdair G Kergon", "email": "agk@redhat.com", "time": "Thu Jul 03 09:53:43 2008 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "jens.axboe@oracle.com", "time": "Thu Jul 03 13:21:15 2008 +0200" }, "message": "Add bvec_merge_data to handle stacked devices and -\u003emerge_bvec()\n\nWhen devices are stacked, one device\u0027s merge_bvec_fn may need to perform\nthe mapping and then call one or more functions for its underlying devices.\n\nThe following bio fields are used:\n bio-\u003ebi_sector\n bio-\u003ebi_bdev\n bio-\u003ebi_size\n bio-\u003ebi_rw using bio_data_dir()\n\nThis patch creates a new struct bvec_merge_data holding a copy of those\nfields to avoid having to change them directly in the struct bio when\ngoing down the stack only to have to change them back again on the way\nback up.
