2009-12-05Add support for GCC-4.5's __builtin_unreachable() to compiler.h (v2)David Daney
Starting with version 4.5, GCC has a new built-in function __builtin_unreachable() that can be used in places like the kernel's BUG() where inline assembly is used to transfer control flow. This eliminated the need for an endless loop in these places. The patch adds a new macro 'unreachable()' that will expand to either __builtin_unreachable() or an endless loop depending on the compiler version. Change from v1: Simplify unreachable() for non-GCC 4.5 case.

2009-12-04[SCSI] modify change_queue_depth to take in reason why it is being calledMike Christie
This patch modifies scsi_host_template->change_queue_depth so that it takes an argument indicating why it is being called. This will be used so that if a LLD needs to do some extra processing when handling queue fulls or later ramp ups, it can do so. This is a simple port of the drivers setting a change_queue_depth callback. In the patch I just have these LLDs adjust the queue depth if the user was requesting it.

2009-12-03GFS2: Tag all metadata with jidSteven Whitehouse
There are two spare field in the header common to all GFS2 metadata. One is just the right size to fit a journal id in it, and this patch updates the journal code so that each time a metadata block is modified, we tag it with the journal id of the node which is performing the modification. The reason for this is that it should make it much easier to debug issues which arise if we can tell which node was the last to modify a particular metadata block. Since the field is updated before the block is written into the journal, each journal should only contain metadata which is tagged with its own journal id. The one exception to this is the journal header block, which might have a different node's id in it, if that journal was recovered by another node in the cluster. Thus each journal will contain a record of which nodes recovered it, via the journal header. The other field in the metadata header could potentially be used to hold information about what kind of operation was performed, but for the time being we just zero it on each transaction so that if we use it for that in future, we'll know that the information (where it exists) is reliable. I did consider using the other field to hold the journal sequence number, however since in GFS2's journaling we write the modified data into the journal and not the original data, this gives no information as to what action caused the modification, so I think we can probably come up with a better use for those 64 bits in the future.

2009-12-03block: Allow devices to indicate whether discarded blocks are zeroedMartin K. Petersen
The discard ioctl is used by mkfs utilities to clear a block device prior to putting metadata down. However, not all devices return zeroed blocks after a discard. Some drives return stale data, potentially containing old superblocks. It is therefore important to know whether discarded blocks are properly zeroed. Both ATA and SCSI drives have configuration bits that indicate whether zeroes are returned after a discard operation. Implement a block level interface that allows this information to be bubbled up the stack and queried via a new block device ioctl. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

2009-12-03libata: add translation for SCSI WRITE SAME (aka TRIM support)Christoph Hellwig
Add support for the ATA TRIM command in libata. We translate a WRITE SAME 16 command with the unmap bit set into an ATA TRIM command and export enough information in READ CAPACITY 16 and the block limits EVPD page so that the new SCSI layer discard support will driver this for us. Note that I hardcode the WRITE_SAME_16 opcode for now as the patch to introduce the symbolic is not in 2.6.32 yet but only in the SCSI tree - as soon as it is merged we can fix it up to properly use the symbolic name.

2009-12-03libata: retry failed FLUSH if device didn't fail itTejun Heo
If ATA device failed FLUSH, it means that the device failed to write out some amount of data and the error needs to be reported to upper layers. As retries can't recover the lost data, FLUSH failures need to be reported immediately in general. However, if FLUSH fails due to transmission errors, the FLUSH needs to be retried; otherwise, filesystems may switch to RO mode and/or raid array may drop a drive for a random transmission glitch. This condition can be rather easily reproduced on certain ahci controllers which go through a PHY event after powersave mode switch + ext4 combination. Powersave mode switch is often closely followed by flush from the filesystem failing the FLUSH with ATA bus error which makes the filesystem code believe that data is lost and drop to RO mode. This was reported in the following bugzilla bug. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14543 This patch makes libata EH retry FLUSH if it wasn't failed by the device.
