Avoid memory copy on writes.
(This patch depends on fixes in patch 9 to follow.)
Although skb->len should not be set when working with linear skbuffs,
the skb->tail pointer maintained by skb_put/skb_trim is not relevant
to what happens when the skb_fill_page_desc function is called. This
issue was raised without comment in linux-kernel and netdev earlier
this month:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/446474/http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/45444/
So until there is something analogous to skb_put that works for
zero-copy write skbuffs, we will do what the other callers of
skb_fill_page_desc are doing.

- Eliminate casts to/from void*
- Eliminate checks for conditions that never occur. These typically
fall into two classes:
1) Checking for 'dev_id == NULL', then it is never called with
NULL as an argument.
2) Checking for invalid irq number, when the only caller (the
system) guarantees the irq handler is called with the proper
'irq' number argument.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require
it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require
the block layer to be present.
This patch does the following:
(*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev
support.
(*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls
an item that uses the block layer. This includes:
(*) Block I/O tracing.
(*) Disk partition code.
(*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS.
(*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the
block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities -
such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this.
(*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM
drivers.
(*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.
(*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by
taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book.
(*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and
linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is,
however, still used in places, and so is still available.
(*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and
parts of linux/fs.h.
(*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK
is not enabled.
(*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are
required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:
(*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).
(*) Makes some /proc changes:
(*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.
(*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if
given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.
(*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if
CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.
(*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return
error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).
(*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if
CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

The lock validator triggered a number of bugs in the floppy driver, all
related to the floppy driver allocating and freeing irq and dma resources from
interrupt context. The initial solution was to use schedule_work() to push
this into process context, but this caused further problems: for example the
current floppy driver in -mm2 is totally broken and all floppy commands time
out with an error. (as reported by Barry K. Nathan)
This patch tries another solution: simply get rid of all that dynamic IRQ and
DMA allocation/freeing. I doubt it made much sense back in the heydays of
floppies (if two devices raced for DMA or IRQ resources then we didnt handle
those cases too gracefully anyway), and today it makes near zero sense.
So the new code does the simplest and most straightforward thing: allocate IRQ
and DMA resources at module init time, and free them at module removal time.
Dont try to release while the driver is operational. This, besides making the
floppy driver functional again has an added bonus, floppy IRQ stats are
finally persistent and visible in /proc/interrupts:
6: 63 XT-PIC-level floppy
Besides normal floppy IO i have also tested IO error handling, motor-off
timeouts, etc. - and everything seems to be working fine.

This reverts commit c7b2eff059.
Hugh Dickins explains:
"It seems too little tested: "losetup -d /dev/loop0" fails with
EINVAL because nothing sets lo_thread; but even when you patch
loop_thread() to set lo->lo_thread = current, it can't survive
more than a few dozen iterations of the loop below (with a tmpfs
mounted on /tst):
j=0
cp /dev/zero /tst
while :
do
let j=j+1
echo "Doing pass $j"
losetup /dev/loop0 /tst/zero
mkfs -t ext2 -b 1024 /dev/loop0 >/dev/null 2>&1
mount -t ext2 /dev/loop0 /mnt
umount /mnt
losetup -d /dev/loop0
done
it collapses with failed ioctl then BUG_ON(!bio).
I think the original lo_done completion was more subtle and safe
than the kthread conversion has allowed for."

Make each one fit on a line so it's easier to read. I re-ordered
COMPAQ_CISSC/0x4091, which was out of order. I double-checked these, but it
would be good if you'd also check them to make sure I didn't miss any.

While writing a version of losetup, I ran into the problem that the loop
device was returning total garbage.
It turns out the problem was that this losetup was only issuing the
LOOP_SET_FD ioctl and not issuing a subsequent LOOP_SET_STATUS ioctl. This
losetup didn't have any special status to set, so it left out the call.
The deeper cause is that loop_set_fd sets the transfer function to NULL,
which causes no transfer to happen lo_do_transfer.
This patch fixes the problem by setting transfer to transfer_none in
loop_set_fd.

<zaitcev> I am taling about this: "if (disk->flags & GENHD_FL_UP) del_gendisk(disk);"
<zaitcev> If del_gendisk() undoes add_disk() like viro just said, why is it conditional?
<viro> huh?
<viro> add_disk() sets the damn flag
<zaitcev> So, I should not need to check ever
<viro> so the above is "if I've called add_disk(), call gendisk()"
<viro> which might be what you want, of course
<viro> but usually you know if you'd done add_disk() on that puppy anyway
In ub, nobody upstream should ever see half-constructed disks before
they were passed to add_disk. To that end, only add the struct lun to
the list on the path of no return. With that fix in place, we do
not need to test GENHD_FL_UP.

The linearisation operation doesn't need to be super-optimised. So we can
replace __skb_linearize with __pskb_pull_tail which does the same thing but
is more general.
Also, most users of skb_linearize end up testing whether the skb is linear
or not so it helps to make skb_linearize do just that.
Some callers of skb_linearize also use it to copy cloned data, so it's
useful to have a new function skb_linearize_cow to copy the data if it's
either non-linear or cloned.
Last but not least, I've removed the gfp argument since nobody uses it
anymore. If it's ever needed we can easily add it back.

Various scsi drivers use scsi_cmnd.buffer and scsi_cmnd.bufflen in their
queuecommand functions. Those fields are internal storage for the
midlayer only and are used to restore the original payload after
request_buffer and request_bufflen have been overwritten for EH. Using
the buffer and bufflen fields means they do very broken things in error
handling.

The Coverity checker found a memory leak (bug nr. 1245) in
drivers/block/DAC960.c::DAC960_V2_ProcessCompletedCommand()
The leak is pretty unlikely since it requires that the first of two
successive kmalloc() calls fail while the second one succeeds. But it can
still happen even if it's unlikely.
If the first call that allocates 'PhysicalDeviceInfo' fails but the one
that allocates 'InquiryUnitSerialNumber' succeeds, then we will leak the
memory allocated to 'InquiryUnitSerialNumber' when the variable goes out
of scope.
A simple fix for this is to change the existing code that frees
'PhysicalDeviceInfo' if that one was allocated but
'InquiryUnitSerialNumber' was not, into a check for either pointer
being NULL and if so just free both. This is safe since kfree() can
deal with being passed a NULL pointer and it avoids the leak.
While I was there I also removed the casts of the kmalloc() return
value since it's pointless.
I also updated the driver version since this patch changes the workings of
the code (however slightly).
This issue could probably be fixed a lot more elegantly, but the code
is a big mess IMHO and I just took the least intrusive route to a fix
that I could find instead of starting on a cleanup as well (that can
come later).
Please consider for inclusion.

In kernel 2.6.16, if a mounted storage device is removed, an oops happens
because ub supplies an interface device (and kobject) to the block layer,
but neglects to pin it. And apparently, the block layer expects its users
to pin device structures.
The code in ub was broken this way for years. But the bug was exposed only
by 2.6.16 when it started to call block_uevent on close, which traverses
device structures (kobjects actually).

Some people report that we die on some Macs when we are expecting to
catch machine checks after poking at some random I/O address. I'd seen
it happen on my dual G4 with serial ports until we fixed those to use
OF, but now other users are reporting it with i8042.
This expands the use of check_legacy_ioport() to avoid that situation
even on 32-bit kernels.
