Trivial cleanups for nbd: only the return -EIO one really changes code,
and I've verified all the callers (plus 0 == success, 1 == error
convention is really ugly).

The code was written to rely on big kernel lock to protect it from races.
It mostly works when interface is not abused.
So this uses tx_lock to protect data structures from concurrent use
between ioctl and worker threads.
Next step will be moving from ioctl to unlocked_ioctl.

Fix a problem that causes I/O to a disconnected (or partially initialized)
nbd device to hang indefinitely. To reproduce:
# ioctl NBD_SET_SIZE_BLOCKS /dev/nbd23 514048
# dd if=/dev/nbd23 of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1
...hangs...
This can also occur when an nbd device loses its nbd-client/server
connection. Although we clear the queue of any outstanding I/Os after the
client/server connection fails, any additional I/Os that get queued later
will hang.
This bug may also be the problem reported in this bug report:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12277
Testing would need to be performed to determine if the two issues are the
same.
This problem was introduced by the new request handling thread code ("NBD:
allow nbd to be used locally", 3/2008), which entered into mainline around
2.6.25.
The fix, which is fairly simple, is to restore the check for lo->sock
being NULL in do_nbd_request. This causes I/O to an uninitialized nbd to
immediately fail with an I/O error, as it did prior to the introduction of
this bug.

Two nbd-clients at same time are bad idea, and cause WARN_ON from nbd in
2.6.28-rc7 from sysfs_add_one. This simply prevents that from happening.
To reproduce:
cat /dev/zero | head -c 10000000 > /tmp/delme.fstest.fs
nbd-server 9100 -l /anyone.can.connect > /tmp/delme.fstest.fs &
sleep 1

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers;
to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following:
1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct
prototypes, make (few) callers handle both. That's this changeset.
2) for each driver convert to new methods. *ALL* drivers
are converted in this series.
3) kill the old (renamed) methods.
Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the
end of this series no trace of old methods remain. The only reason why
we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver
debugging if anything goes wrong.
New methods:
open(bdev, mode)
release(disk, mode)
ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called without BKL */
compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)
locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called with BKL, legacy */

Tejun's commit 7b595756ec1f49e0049a9e01a1298d53a7faaa15 made sysfs
attribute->owner unnecessary. But the field was left in the structure to
ease the merge. It's been over a year since that change and it is now
time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at
a time!
This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for
CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 . We will deal with other arches later on
as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I
can test. Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config)
and boot tested.
akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside
`#ifndef CONFIG_X86'. But that proved to be too ambitious for now because
new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.

Permit the use of partitions with network block devices (NBD).
A new parameter is introduced to define how many partition we want to be able
to manage per network block device. This parameter is "max_part".
For instance, to manage 63 partitions / loop device, we will do:
[on the server side]
# nbd-server 1234 /dev/sdb
[on the client side]
# modprobe nbd max_part=63
# ls -l /dev/nbd*

Negotiation: ..size = 80418240KB
bs=1024, sz=80418240
-------NOTE, RFC: partition table is not automatically read.
The driver sets bdev->bd_invalidated to 1 to force the read of the partition
table of the device, but this is done only on an open of the device.
So we have to do a "touch /dev/nbdX" or something like that.
It can't be done from the nbd-client or nbd driver because at this
level we can't ask to read the partition table and to serve the request
at the same time (-> deadlock)
If someone has a better idea, I'm open to any suggestion.

This patch allows Network Block Device to be mounted locally (nbd-client to
nbd-server over 127.0.0.1).
It creates a kthread to avoid the deadlock described in NBD tools
documentation. So, if nbd-client hangs waiting for pages, the kblockd thread
can continue its work and free pages.
I have tested the patch to verify that it avoids the hang that always occurs
when writing to a localhost nbd connection. I have also tested to verify that
no performance degradation results from the additional thread and queue.
Patch originally from Laurent Vivier.

NBD doesn't work well with CFQ (or AS) schedulers, so let's default to
something else.
The two problems I have experienced with nbd and cfq are:
1) nbd hangs with cfq on RHEL 5 (2.6.18) -- this may well have been
fixed
There's a similar debian bug that has been filed as well:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=447638
There have been posts to nbd-general mailing list about problems with
cfq and nbd also.
2) nbd performs about 10% better (the last time I tested) with deadline
vs. cfq (the overhead of cfq doesn't provide much advantage to nbd [not
being a real disk], and you end up going through the I/O scheduler on
the nbd server anyway, so it makes sense that deadline is better with
nbd)

using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in

The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

Allow NBD I/O to be cancelled when a network outage occurs. Previously, I/O
would just hang, and if enough I/O was hung in nbd, the system (at least
user-level) would completely hang until a TCP timeout (default, 15 minutes)
occurred.
The patch introduces a new ioctl NBD_SET_TIMEOUT that allows a transmit
timeout value (in seconds) to be specified. Any network send that exceeds the
timeout will be cancelled and the nbd connection will be shut down. I've
tested with various timeout values and 6 seconds seems to be a good choice for
the timeout. If the NBD_SET_TIMEOUT ioctl is not called, you get the old (I/O
hang) behavior.

# vgscan
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
/dev/nbd0: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 0: Input/output error
/dev/nbd0: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 509804544: Input/output error

/dev/nbd1: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error

Allow nbd to expose the nbd-client daemon's PID in /sys/block/nbd<x>/pid.
This is helpful for tracking connection status of a device and for
determining which nbd devices are currently in use.

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.

When reading from nbd device, we need to receive all the data after
receiving reply packet from the server - otherwise such request will never
be ended.
If socket is closed right after accepting reply control packet and in the
middle of waiting for read data, nbd_read_stat() returns NULL and
nbd_end_request() is not called.
This patch fixes it.

We should check magic sequence in reply packet before trying to find
request with it's request handle. This also solves the problem with
"Unexpected reply" message beeing logged, when packet with invalid magic is
received.

Janos Haar of First NetCenter Bt. reported numerous crashes involving the
NBD driver. With his help, this was tracked down to bogus bio vectors
which in turn was the result of a race condition between the
receive/transmit routines in the NBD driver.
The bug manifests itself like this:
CPU0 CPU1
do_nbd_request
add req to queuelist
nbd_send_request
send req head
for each bio
kmap
send
nbd_read_stat
nbd_find_request
nbd_end_request
kunmap
When CPU1 finishes nbd_end_request, the request and all its associated
bio's are freed. So when CPU0 calls kunmap whose argument is derived from
the last bio, it may crash.
Under normal circumstances, the race occurs only on the last bio. However,
if an error is encountered on the remote NBD server (such as an incorrect
magic number in the request), or if there were a bug in the server, it is
possible for the nbd_end_request to occur any time after the request's
addition to the queuelist.
The following patch fixes this problem by making sure that requests are not
added to the queuelist until after they have been completed transmission.
In order for the receiving side to be ready for responses involving
requests still being transmitted, the patch introduces the concept of the
active request.
When a response matches the current active request, its processing is
delayed until after the tranmission has come to a stop.
This has been tested by Janos and it has been successful in curing this
race condition.
From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
Here is an updated patch which removes the active_req wait in
nbd_clear_queue and the associated memory barrier.
I've also clarified this in the comment.
