2006-12-01[PATCH] block: support larger block pc requestsMike Christie
This patch modifies blk_rq_map/unmap_user() and the cdrom and scsi_ioctl.c users so that it supports requests larger than bio by chaining them together. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2006-11-16[PATCH] scsi: clear garbage after CDBs on SG_IOTejun Heo
ATAPI devices transfer fixed number of bytes for CDBs (12 or 16). Some ATAPI devices choke when shorter CDB is used and the left bytes contain garbage. Block SG_IO cleared left bytes but SCSI SG_IO didn't. This patch makes SCSI SG_IO clear it and simplify CDB clearing in block SG_IO.

2006-11-13[PATCH] Fix bad data direction in SG_IOJens Axboe
Contrary to what the name misleads you to believe, SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV is really just a normal read seen from the device side. This patch fixes http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/13/100 Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-09-30[PATCH] Split struct request ->flags into two partsJens Axboe
Right now ->flags is a bit of a mess: some are request types, and others are just modifiers. Clean this up by splitting it into ->cmd_type and ->cmd_flags. This allows introduction of generic Linux block message types, useful for sending generic Linux commands to block devices. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-04-13[SCSI] unify SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND implementationsChristoph Hellwig
We currently have two implementations of this obsolete ioctl, one in the block layer and one in the scsi code. Both of them have drawbacks. This patch kills the scsi layer version after updating the block version with the missing bits: - argument checking - use scatterlist I/O - set number of retries based on the submitted command This is the last user of non-S/G I/O except for the gdth driver, so getting this in ASAP and through the scsi tree would be nie to kill the non-S/G I/O path. Jens, what do you think about adding a check for non-S/G I/O in the midlayer? Thanks to Or Gerlitz for testing this patch.

2006-02-08[PATCH] blk: Fix SG_IO ioctl failure retry loopingJens Axboe
When issuing an SG_IO ioctl through sd that resulted in an unrecoverable error, a nearly infinite retry loop was discovered. This is due to the fact that the block layer SG_IO code is not setting up rq->retries. This patch also fixes up the sg_scsi_ioctl path.

2006-01-06[BLOCK] mark some block/ variables consArjan van de Ven
the patch below marks various read-only variables in block/* as const, so that gcc can optimize the use of them; eg gcc will replace the use by the value directly now and will even remove the memory usage of these.

2005-12-15[SCSI] seperate max_sectors from max_hw_sectorsMike Christie
- export __blk_put_request and blk_execute_rq_nowait needed for async REQ_BLOCK_PC requests - seperate max_hw_sectors and max_sectors for block/scsi_ioctl.c and SG_IO bio.c helpers per Jens's last comments. Since block/scsi_ioctl.c SG_IO was already testing against max_sectors and SCSI-ml was setting max_sectors and max_hw_sectors to the same value this does not change any scsi SG_IO behavior. It only prepares ll_rw_blk.c, scsi_ioctl.c and bio.c for when SCSI-ml begins to set a valid max_hw_sectors for all LLDs. Today if a LLD does not set it SCSI-ml sets it to a safe default and some LLDs set it to a artificial low value to overcome memory and feedback issues. Note: Since we now cap max_sectors to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS, which is 1024, drivers that used to call blk_queue_max_sectors with a large value of max_sectors will now see the fs requests capped to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS.
