2007-10-16SCSI: support for allocating large scatterlistsJens Axboe
This is what enables large commands. If we need to allocate an sgtable that doesn't fit in a single page, allocate several SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS sized tables and chain them together. SCSI defaults to large chained sg tables, if the arch supports it. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-16scsi: simplify scsi_free_sgtable()Jens Axboe
Just pass in the command, no point in passing in the scatterlist and scatterlist pool index seperately. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2007-10-16ll_rw_blk: temporarily enable max_segments tweakingJens Axboe
Expose this setting for now, so that users can play with enabling large commands without defaulting it to on globally. This is a debug patch, it will be dropped for the final versions. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-16Add chained sg support to linux/scatterlist.hJens Axboe
The core of the patch - allow the last sg element in a scatterlist table to point to the start of a new table. We overload the LSB of the page pointer to indicate whether this is a valid sg entry, or merely a link to the next list. Includes a fix from Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com> correcting the ifdef ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN guarding sg_last(). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-16scsi: convert to using sg helpersJens Axboe
This converts the SCSI mid layer to using the sg helpers for looking up sg elements, instead of doing it manually. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2007-10-16block: convert blkdev_issue_flush() to use empty barriersJens Axboe
Then we can get rid of ->issue_flush_fn() and all the driver private implementations of that. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-16block: Initial support for data-less (or empty) barrier supportJens Axboe
This implements functionality to pass down or insert a barrier in a queue, without having data attached to it. The ->prepare_flush_fn() infrastructure from data barriers are reused to provide this functionality. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-16block: factor our bio_check_eod()Jens Axboe

2007-10-16block: add end_queued_request() and end_dequeued_request() helpersJens Axboe
We can use this helper in the elevator core for BLKPREP_KILL, and it'll also be useful for the empty barrier patch. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-16bio: make freeing of ->bi_io_vec conditional in bio_free()Jens Axboe
The empty barrier patches do not carry data, so they have no iovec attached. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2007-10-15Reinstate lost flush_ioremap_region() fix to pxa2xx-flash driverLinus Torvalds
Commit 90833fdab89da02fc0276224167f0a42e5176f41 ("[ARM] 4554/1: replace consistent_sync() with flush_ioremap_region()") introduced a new "flush_ioremap_region()" function to be used by the MTD mainstone-flash and lubbock-flash drivers to fix a regression from around 2.6.18. Those drivers were independently merged into a single driver by Todd Poynor in commit e644f7d6289456657996df4192de76c5d0a9f9c7 ("[MTD] MAPS: Merge Lubbock and Mainstone drivers into common PXA2xx driver") Later, those two commits were merged into the main MTD tree by commit b160292cc216a50fd0cd386b0bda2cd48352c73b ("Merge Linux 2.6.23") by David Woodhouse, but in that merge, the fix to use flush_iomap_region() got lost (as it was to files that now no longer existed). This reinstates the fix in the new driver.

2007-10-15[NEIGH]: Ensure that pneigh_lookup is protected with RTNLPavel Emelyanov
The pnigh_lookup is used to lookup proxy entries and to create them in case lookup failed. However, the "creation" code does not perform the re-lookup after GFP_KERNEL allocation. This is done because the code is expected to be protected with the RTNL lock, so add the assertion (mainly to address future questions from new network developers like me :) ).

2007-10-15scsi/gdth: fix crash in gdth_timeout if no gdth controllers foundLinus Torvalds
If the gdth module is loaded (or compiled in), the gdth_timeout function gets started even if no actual gdth controllers are found b the probing. That ends up not only being unnecessary, but also causes a crash due to the function blindly just trying to pick the first entry off the "gdth_instances" list, and accessing it - which obviously doesn't work if the list is empty!

2007-10-15libata: prevent devices with blank model names from being DMA blacklistedAndrew Paprocki
The strn_pattern_cmp routine does not handle a blank name parameter properly. The only patterns which should match a blank name are "*" and an explicit "". If the function is passed a blank name in current code, it will always match against the patt parameter. The bug manifests itself as the device with the empty model name always matching the first device in the DMA blacklist, forcing it to revert to PIO mode.
