The blk_get_request function may fail in low-memory conditions or during
device removal (even if __GFP_WAIT is set). To distinguish between these
errors, modify the blk_get_request call stack to return the appropriate
ERR_PTR. Verify that all callers check the return status and consider
IS_ERR instead of a simple NULL pointer check.

For consistency, make a similar change to the blk_mq_alloc_request leg
of blk_get_request. It may fail if the queue is dead, or the caller was
unwilling to wait.

With the optimizations around not clearing the full request at alloc
time, we are leaving some of the needed init for REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC
up to the user allocating the request.

Add a blk_rq_set_block_pc() that sets the command type to
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC, and properly initializes the members associated
with this type of request. Update callers to use this function instead
of manipulating rq->cmd_type directly.

Includes fixes from Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> for my half-assed
attempt.

c45d15d24eb2b49bf734e1e5e7e103befb76b19b 02-Jun-2010 Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> scsi: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex

All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
way to serialize their private file operations,
typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
pushdown from VFS.

None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
lock in their file operations, meaning that there
is no lock-order inversion problem.

Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
typos.

file=$1
name=$2
if grep -q lock_kernel ${file} ; then
if grep -q 'include.*linux.mutex.h' ${file} ; then
sed -i '/include.*<linux\/smp_lock.h>/d' ${file}

__os_scsi_tape_open() suggests that llseek() doesn't work: "We really want
to do nonseekable_open(inode, filp); here, but some versions of tar
incorrectly call lseek on tapes and bail out if that fails. So we
disallow pread() and pwrite(), but permit lseeks."

Instead of using the fallback default_llseek() the driver should use
noop_llseek() which leaves the file->f_pos untouched but succeeds.

5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05 24-Mar-2010 Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.

2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

There is a race from when a device is created with device_create() and
then the drvdata is set with a call to dev_set_drvdata() in which a

sorts of bad things to happen.

This patch fixes the problem by using the new function,
device_create_drvdata(). It fixes the problem in all of the scsi
drivers that need it.

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.

drivers/scsi/osst.c:5154: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false

The problem is that blk is defined as unsigned, but all usages of it are
normal int cases. osst_get_frame_position() and osst_get_sector() return ints
and can return negative values. If blk stays an unsigned int, the error check
is useless.

Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation.

This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state
in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks
internally. FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some
network filesystems would need this also.

Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by
close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking
request in this case.

Ok, so here is my first take at satisfying this request.
Be warned, that beyond compiling, and checking that the new module
doesn't immediately blow up, there hasn't yet been a lot of testing.

But this should allow you to comment on the changes, and move forward
with dropping scsi_request from the kernel code.

As devfs has been disabled from the kernel tree for a number of months
now (5 to be exact), here's a patch against 2.6.16-rc1-git1 that removes
support for it from the SCSI subsystem.

The patch also removes the scsi_disk devfs_name field as it's no longer
needed.

This should eliminate (at least in the mid layer) to make numeric
assumptions about any of the enumeration variables. As a side effect,
it will also make all the messages consistent and line us up nicely for
the error logging strategy (if it ever shows itself again).

This patch does a full cleanup of 'NULL checks before vfree', and a partial
cleanup of calls to kfree for all of drivers/ - the kfree bit is partial in
that I only did the files that also had vfree calls in them. The patch
also gets rid of some redundant (void *) casts of pointers being passed to
[vk]free, and a some tiny whitespace corrections also crept in.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
