Rework the handling of suspend and resume of PCI devices which have no drivers or the drivers of which do not provide any suspend-resume callbacks in such a way that their standard PCI configuration registers will be saved and restored with interrupts disabled. This should prevent such devices, including PCI bridges, from being resumed too late to be able to function correctly during the resume of the other PCI devices that may depend on them. Also, to remove one possible source of future confusion, drop the default handling of suspend and resume for PCI devices with drivers providing the 'pm' object introduced by the new suspend-resume framework (there are no such PCI drivers at the moment). This patch addresses the regression from 2.6.26 tracked as http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12121 . Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

PM: Simplify the new suspend/hibernation framework for devices Following the discussion at the Kernel Summit, simplify the new device PM framework by merging 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops' and removing pointers to 'struct pm_ext_ops' from 'struct platform_driver' and 'struct pci_driver'. After this change, the suspend/hibernation callbacks will only reside in 'struct device_driver' as well as at the bus type/ device class/device type level. Accordingly, PCI and platform device drivers are now expected to put their suspend/hibernation callbacks into the 'struct device_driver' embedded in 'struct pci_driver' or 'struct platform_driver', respectively.

Implement simple read-only sysfs entry for device-mapper block device. This patch adds a simple sysfs directory named "dm" under block device properties and implements - name attribute (string containing mapped device name) - uuid attribute (string containing UUID, or empty string if not set) The kobject is embedded in mapped_device struct, so no additional memory allocation is needed for initializing sysfs entry. During the processing of sysfs attribute we need to lock mapped device which is done by a new function dm_get_from_kobj, which returns the md associated with kobject and increases the usage count. Each 'show attribute' function is responsible for its own locking. Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

Rework table reference counting. The existing code uses a reference counter. When the last reference is dropped and the counter reaches zero, the table destructor is called. Table reference counters are acquired/released from upcalls from other kernel code (dm_any_congested, dm_merge_bvec, dm_unplug_all). If the reference counter reaches zero in one of the upcalls, the table destructor is called from almost random kernel code. This leads to various problems: * dm_any_congested being called under a spinlock, which calls the destructor, which calls some sleeping function. * the destructor attempting to take a lock that is already taken by the same process. * stale reference from some other kernel code keeps the table constructed, which keeps some devices open, even after successful return from "dmsetup remove". This can confuse lvm and prevent closing of underlying devices or reusing device minor numbers. The patch changes reference counting so that the table destructor can be called only at predetermined places. The table has always exactly one reference from either mapped_device->map or hash_cell->new_map. After this patch, this reference is not counted in table->holders. A pair of dm_create_table/dm_destroy_table functions is used for table creation/destruction. Temporary references from the other code increase table->holders. A pair of dm_table_get/dm_table_put functions is used to manipulate it. When the table is about to be destroyed, we wait for table->holders to reach 0. Then, we call the table destructor. We use active waiting with msleep(1), because the situation happens rarely (to one user in 5 years) and removing the device isn't performance-critical task: the user doesn't care if it takes one tick more or not. This way, the destructor is called only at specific points (dm_table_destroy function) and the above problems associated with lazy destruction can't happen. Finally remove the temporary protection added to dm_any_congested(). Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

Implement barrier support for single device DM devices This patch implements barrier support in DM for the common case of dm linear just remapping a single underlying device. In this case we can safely pass the barrier through because there can be no reordering between devices. NB. Any DM device might cease to support barriers if it gets reconfigured so code must continue to allow for a possible -EOPNOTSUPP on every barrier bio submitted. - agk Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

This patch adds the following target interfaces for request-based dm. map_rq : for mapping a request rq_end_io : for finishing a request busy : for avoiding performance regression from bio-based dm. Target can tell dm core not to map requests now, and that may help requests in the block layer queue to be bigger by I/O merging. In bio-based dm, this behavior is done by device drivers managing the block layer queue. But in request-based dm, dm core has to do that since dm core manages the block layer queue.

rw_header function updates three members of io_req data every time when I/O is processed. bi_rw and notify.fn are never modified once they get initialized, and so they can be set in advance. header_to_disk() can also be pulled out of write_header() since only one caller needs it and write_header() can be replaced by rw_header() directly.

Change dm_unregister_target to return void and use BUG() for error reporting. dm_unregister_target can only fail because of programming bug in the target driver. It can't fail because of user's behavior or disk errors. This patch changes unregister_target to return void and use BUG if someone tries to unregister non-registered target or unregister target that is in use. This patch removes code duplication (testing of error codes in all dm targets) and reports bugs in just one place, in dm_unregister_target. In some target drivers, these return codes were ignored, which could lead to a situation where bugs could be missed.

Always increase the error count when I/O on a leg of a mirror fails. The error count is used to decide whether to select an alternative mirror leg. If the target doesn't use the "handle_errors" feature, the error count is not updated and the bio can get requeued forever by the read callback. Fix it by increasing error_count before the handle_errors feature checking.
