Commit ca4b2a011948 ("null_blk: add zone support") breaks several
blktests scripts because it renamed the null_blk kernel module into
null_blk_mod. Hence rename null_blk_mod back into null_blk.

<content type='text'>
Adds support for exposing a null_blk device through the zone device
interface.

The interface is managed with the parameters zoned and zone_size.
If zoned is set, the null_blk instance registers as a zoned block
device. The zone_size parameter defines how big each zone will be.

<title>null_blk: remove NULLB_DEV_FL_CONFIGURED on turning off nullb device</title>

Currently mbps knob could only be set once before switching power knob to
on, after power knob has been set at least once, there is no way to set
mbps knob again due to -EBUSY.

As nullb is mainly used for testing, in order to make it flexible, this
removes the flag NULLB_DEV_FL_CONFIGURED so that mbps knob can be reset
when power knob is off, e.g.

echo 0 &gt; /config/nullb/a/power
echo 40 &gt; /config/nullb/a/mbps
echo 1 &gt; /config/nullb/a/power

So does other knobs under /config/nullb/a.

blk_mq_complete_request can only be called for blk-mq drivers, but when
removing the BLK_EH_HANDLED return value, two legacy request timeout
methods incorrectly got switched to call blk_mq_complete_request.
Call __blk_complete_request instead to reinstance the previous behavior.
For that __blk_complete_request needs to be exported.

<id>urn:sha1:6396bb221514d2876fd6dc0aa2a1f240d99b37bb</id>
<content type='text'>
The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kcalloc(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

// Fix redundant parens around sizeof().

By completing the request entirely in the driver we can remove the
BLK_EH_HANDLED return value and thus the split responsibility between the
driver and the block layer that has been causing trouble.

Convert the S_&lt;FOO&gt; symbolic permissions to their octal equivalents as
using octal and not symbolic permissions is preferred by many as more
readable.

see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/2/1945

<title>block: Move SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT definitions into &lt;linux/blkdev.h&gt;</title>

<id>urn:sha1:233bde21aa43516baa013ef7ac33f3427056db3e</id>
<content type='text'>
It happens often while I'm preparing a patch for a block driver that
I'm wondering: is a definition of SECTOR_SIZE and/or SECTOR_SHIFT
available for this driver? Do I have to introduce definitions of these
constants before I can use these constants? To avoid this confusion,
move the existing definitions of SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT into the
&lt;linux/blkdev.h&gt; header file such that these become available for all
block drivers. Make the SECTOR_SIZE definition in the uapi msdos_fs.h
header file conditional to avoid that including that header file after
&lt;linux/blkdev.h&gt; causes the compiler to complain about a SECTOR_SIZE
redefinition.

Note: the SECTOR_SIZE / SECTOR_SHIFT / SECTOR_BITS definitions have
not been removed from uapi header files nor from NAND drivers in
which these constants are used for another purpose than converting
block layer offsets and sizes into a number of sectors.
