2007-05-22[SCSI] sd: fix refcounting regression in suspend/resume routinesAlan Stern

2007-04-17[SCSI] modalias for scsi devicesMichael Tokarev
The following patch adds support for sysfs/uevent modalias attribute for scsi devices (like disks, tapes, cdroms etc), based on whatever current sd.c, sr.c, st.c and osst.c drivers supports. The modalias format is like this: scsi:type-0x04 (for TYPE_WORM, handled by sr.c now). Several comments. o This hexadecimal type value is because all TYPE_XXX constants in include/scsi/scsi.h are given in hex, but __stringify() will not convert them to decimal (so it will NOT be scsi:type-4). Since it does not really matter in which format it is, while both modalias in module and modalias attribute match each other, I descided to go for that 0x%02x format (and added a comment in include/scsi/scsi.h to keep them that way), instead of changing them all to decimal. o There was no .uevent routine for SCSI bus. It might be a good idea to add some more ueven environment variables in there. o osst.c driver handles tapes too, like st.c, but only SOME tapes. With this setup, hotplug scripts (or whatever is used by the user) will try to load both st and osst modules for all SCSI tapes found, because both modules have scsi:type-0x01 alias). It is not harmful, but one extra module is no good either. It is possible to solve this, by exporting more info in modalias attribute, including vendor and device identification strings, so that modalias becomes something like scsi:type-0x12:vendor-Adaptec LTD:device-OnStream Tape Drive and having that, match for all 3 attributes, not only device type. But oh well, vendor and device strings may be large, and they do contain spaces and whatnot. So I left them for now, awaiting for comments first.

2007-03-20[SCSI] sd: implement START/STOP managementTejun Heo
Implement SBC START/STOP management. sdev->mange_start_stop is added. When it's set to one, sd STOPs the device on suspend and shutdown and STARTs it on resume. sdev->manage_start_stop defaults is in sdev instead of scsi_disk cdev to allow ->slave_config() override the default configuration but is exported under scsi_disk sysfs node as sdev->allow_restart is. When manage_start_stop is zero (the default value), this patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

2007-02-02[SCSI] sd: udev accessing an uninitialized scsi_disk field results in a crashNagendra Singh Tomar
sd_probe() calls class_device_add() even before initializing the sdkp->device variable. class_device_add() eventually results in the user mode udev program to be called. udev program can read the the allow_restart attribute of the newly created scsi device. This is resulting in a crash as the show function for allow_restart (i.e sd_show_allow_restart) returns the attribute value by reading the sdkp->device->allow_restart variable. As the sdkp->device is not initialized before calling the user mode hotplug helper, this results in a crash. The patch below solves it by calling class_device_add() only after the necessary fields in the scsi_disk structure are initialized properly.

2006-07-09[SCSI] hide EH backup data outside the scsi_cmndChristoph Hellwig
Currently struct scsi_cmnd has various fields that are used to backup original data after the corresponding fields have been overridden for EH commands. This means drivers can easily get at it and misuse it. Due to the old_ naming this doesn't happen for most of them, but two that have different names have been used wrong a lot (see previous patch). Another downside is that they unessecarily bloat the scsi_cmnd size. This patch moves them onstack in scsi_send_eh_cmnd to fix those two issues aswell as allowing future EH fixes like moving the EH command submissions to use SG lists like everything else.

2006-06-28[SCSI] scsi: Add allow_restart sysfs class attributeBrian King
This is a resend of a patch I generated in response to an email sent by Ruben Faelens <parasietje@gmail.com>. His original email to linux-scsi requested a method in which he could spin down a scsi disk when not in use and have the kernel automatically spin it back up when an I/O was generated to the disk. The infrastructure to automatically spin a disk up has been in the scsi error handler for some time now, but it is not enabled by default. This patch adds an sd sysfs attribute which allows userspace to enable this behavior. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
2006-06-26[SCSI] sd/scsi_lib simplify sd_rw_intr and scsi_io_completionLuben Tuikov
This patch simplifies "good_bytes" computation in sd_rw_intr(). sd: "good_bytes" computation is always done in terms of the resolution of the device's medium, since after that it is the number of good bytes we pass around and other layers/contexts (as opposed ot sd) can translate that to their own resolution (block layer:512). It also makes scsi_io_completion() processing more straightforward, eliminating the 3rd argument to the function. It also fixes a couple of bugs like not checking return value, using "break" instead of "return;", etc. I've been running with this patch for some time now on a test (do-it-all) system.

2006-01-08[PATCH] Add block_device_operations.getgeo block device methodChristoph Hellwig
HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.
