Jens Axboe 563063a808 ll_rw_blk: temporarily enable max_segments tweaking
Expose this setting for now, so that users can play with enabling
large commands without defaulting it to on globally. This is a debug
patch, it will be dropped for the final versions.

Kay Sievers 7eff2e7a8b Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a struct
This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a

proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the

NeilBrown 6712ecf8f6 Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_io
As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete,
the 'size' argument is now redundant.  Remove it.

Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed
from bi_size.  So don't do that either.

While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void.

NeilBrown 5bb23a688b Don't decrement bi_size in bio_endio
The only caller of bio_endio that does not pass the full bi_size
is end_that_request_first.  Also, no ->bi_end_io method is really
interested in bi_size being decremented.

So move the decrement and related code into ll_rw_blk and merge it
with order_bio_endio to form req_bio_endio which does endio functionality
specific to request completion.

As some ->bi_end_io methods do check bi_size of 0, we set it thus for
now, but that will go in the next patch.

NeilBrown 9dfa52831e Merge blk_recount_segments into blk_recalc_rq_segments
blk_recalc_rq_segments calls blk_recount_segments on each bio,
then does some extra calculations to handle segments that overlap
two bios.

If we merge the code from blk_recount_segments into
blk_recalc_rq_segments, we can process the whole request one bio_vec
at a time, and not need the messy cross-bio calculations.

Then blk_recount_segments can be implemented by calling
blk_recalc_rq_segments, passing it a simple on-stack request which
stores just the bio.

Should add some comments for the tag barriers (they won't be so important
if we can switch over to the explicit _lock bitops, but for now we should

Jens' original patch said a barrier after the test_and_clear_bit was also
required. I can't see why (and it would prevent the use of the _lock bitop).

Jens Axboe f3da54ba14 Fix race with shared tag queue maps
There's a race condition in blk_queue_end_tag() for shared tag maps,
users include stex (promise supertrak thingy) and qla2xxx.  The former
at least has reported bugs in this area, not sure why we haven't seen
any for the latter.  It could be because the window is narrow and that
other conditions in the qla2xxx code hide this.  It's a real bug,
though, as the stex smp users can attest.

We need to ensure two things - the tag bit clearing needs to happen
AFTER we cleared the tag pointer, as the tag bit clearing/setting is
what protects this map.  Secondly, we need to ensure that the visibility
of the tag pointer and tag bit clear are ordered properly.

[ I removed the SMP barriers - "test_and_clear_bit()" already implies
  all the required barriers.  -- Linus ]

James Bottomley 39dca558a5 [SCSI] bsg: make class backlinks
Currently, bsg doesn't make class backlinks (a process whereby you'd get
a link to bsg in the device directory in the same way you get one for
sg).  This is because the bsg device is uninitialised, so the class
device has nothing it can attach to.  The fix is to make the bsg device
point to the cdevice of the entity creating the bsg, necessitating
changing the bsg_register_queue() prototype into a form that takes the
generic device.

James Bottomley 6826ee4fdb [SCSI] bsg: fix bsg_register_queue error path
unfortunately, if IS_ERR(class_dev) is true, that means class_dev isn't
null and the check in the error leg is pointless ... it's also asking
for trouble to request unregistration of a device we haven't actually
created (although it works currently).  Fix by using explicit gotos and
unregisters.

Alexey Dobriyan 8350163a90 cfq: Write-only stuff in CFQ data structures
There are some leftover bits from the task cooperator patch, that was
yanked out again. While it will get reintroduced, no point in having
this write-only stuff in the tree. So yank it.

Vasily Tarasov c2dea2d1fd cfq: async queue allocation per priority
If we have two processes with different ioprio_class, but the same
ioprio_data, their async requests will fall into the same queue. I guess
such behavior is not expected, because it's not right to put real-time
requests and best-effort requests in the same queue.

The attached patch fixes the problem by introducing additional *cfqq
fields on cfqd, pointing to per-(class,priority) async queues.

Paul Mundt 20c2df83d2 mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

James Bottomley 80ed71ce1a [SCSI] bsg: separate bsg and SCSI (so SCSI can be modular)
This patch moves the bsg registration into SCSI so that bsg no longer
has a dependency on the scsi_interface_register API.

This can be viewed as a temporary expedient until we can get universal
bsg binding sorted out properly.  Also use the sdev bus_id as the
generic bsg name (to avoid clashes with the queue name).
