block: introduce new block status code type

2017-06-09T15:27:32Z

Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings. This patch instead introduces a new blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific status codes and explicitly explains their meaning. Helpers to convert from and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later. For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging fruite to improve it. blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

scsi: introduce a result field in struct scsi_request

2017-04-20T18:16:10Z

This passes on the scsi_cmnd result field to users of passthrough requests. Currently we abuse req->errors for this purpose, but that field will go away in its current form. Note that the old IDE code abuses the errors field in very creative ways and stores all kinds of different values in it. I didn't dare to touch this magic, so the abuses are brought forward 1:1.

block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ space

2017-01-31T21:00:44Z

Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough operations. Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

ide: don't abuse cmd_type

2017-01-31T21:00:39Z

Currently the legacy ide driver defines several request types of it's own, which is in the way of removing that field entirely. Instead add a type field to struct ide_request and use that to distinguish the different types of IDE-internal requests. It's a bit of a mess, but so is the surrounding code..

block: split scsi_request out of struct request

2017-01-27T22:08:35Z

And require all drivers that want to support BLOCK_PC to allocate it as the first thing of their private data. To support this the legacy IDE and BSG code is switched to set cmd_size on their queues to let the block layer allocate the additional space.

block: move PM request support to IDE

2015-05-05T19:40:42Z

This removes the request types and hacks from the block code and into the old IDE driver. There is a small amunt of code duplication due to this, but it's not too bad. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

ide/ata: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE where needed

2011-10-31T23:31:37Z

They were getting this implicitly by an include of module.h from device.h -- but we are going to clean that up and break that include chain, so include export.h explicitly now. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

block: remove wrappers for request type/flags

2010-08-07T16:17:56Z

Remove all the trivial wrappers for the cmd_type and cmd_flags fields in struct requests. This allows much easier grepping for different request types instead of unwinding through macros. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

ide: always kill the whole request on error

2009-06-26T06:57:16Z

* Use blk_rq_bytes() instead of obsolete ide_rq_bytes() in ide_kill_rq() and ide_floppy_do_request() for failed requests. [ bugfix part ] * Use blk_rq_bytes() instead of obsolete ide_rq_bytes() in ide_do_devset() and ide_complete_drive_reset(). Then remove ide_rq_bytes().
