The last request completion cleanup in scsi_lib left an unused this_count variable in scsi_io_completion(). (It was used before in a code segment that now uses blk_end_request_all()) Signed-off-by:

New block API: given a struct bio allocates a new request. This is the parallel of generic_make_request for BLOCK_PC commands users. The passed bio may be a chained-bio. The bio is bounced if needed inside the call to this member. This is in the effort of un-exporting blk_rq_append_bio(). Signed-off-by:

Unfortunately multiple kmap() within a single thread are deadlockable, so writing out multiple buffers with writev() isn't possible. Change the implementation so that it does a separate write() for each buffer. This actually simplifies the code a lot since the splice_from_pipe() helper can be used. This limitation is caused by HIGHMEM pages, and so only affects a subset of architectures and configurations. In the future it may be worth to implement default_file_splice_write() in a more efficient way on configs that allow it. Signed-off-by:

When a read bio_copy_kern() request fails, the content of the bounce buffer is not copied back. However, as request failure doesn't necessarily mean complete failure, the buffer state can be useful. This behavior is also inconsistent with the user map counterpart and causes the subtle difference between bounced and unbounced IO causes confusion. This patch makes bio_copy_kern_endio() ignore @err and always copy back data on request completion. Signed-off-by:

In commit c3a4d78c, while introducing rq->resid_len, the default value of residue count was changed from full count to zero. The conversion was done under the assumption that when a request fails residue count wasn't defined. However, Boaz and James pointed out that this wasn't true and the residue count should be preserved for failed requests too. This patchset restores the original behavior by setting rq->resid_len to blk_rq_bytes(rq) on request start and restoring explicit clearing in affected drivers. While at it, take advantage of the fact that rq->resid_len is set to full count where applicable. * ide-cd: rq->resid_len cleared on pc success * mptsas: req->resid_len cleared on success * sas_expander: rsp/req->resid_len cleared on success * mpt2sas_transport: req->resid_len cleared on success * ide-cd, ide-tape, mptsas, sas_host_smp, mpt2sas_transport, ub: take advantage of initial full count to simplify code Boaz Harrosh spotted bug in resid_len initialization. Fixed as suggested. Signed-off-by:

ub_end_rq() always tries to complete full request. The @cmd_len parameter was there because rq->data_len used to be overwritten with residue count. Drop @cmd_len and use __blk_end_request_all(). Signed-off-by:

If f_op->splice_write() is not implemented, fall back to a plain write. Use vfs_writev() to write from the pipe buffers. This will allow splice on all filesystems and file types. This includes "direct_io" files in fuse which bypass the page cache. Signed-off-by:

Allow splice(2) to work when both the input and the output is a pipe. Based on the impementation of the tee(2) syscall, but instead of duplicating the buffer references move the buffers from the input pipe to the output pipe. Moving the whole buffer only succeeds if the full length of the buffer is spliced. Otherwise duplicate the buffer, just like tee(2), set the length of the output buffer and advance the offset on the input buffer. Since splice is operating on two pipes, special care needs to be taken with locking to prevent AN ABBA deadlock. Again this is done similarly to the tee(2) syscall, first preparing the input and output pipes so there's data to consume and space for that data, and then doing the move operation while holding both locks. If other processes are doing I/O on the same pipes parallel to the splice, then by the time both inodes are locked there might be no buffers left to move, or no space to move them to. In this case retry the whole operation, including the preparation phase. This could lead to starvation, but I'm not sure if that's serious enough to worry about. Signed-off-by:

Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution. A request is always acquired from the request queue via elv_next_request(). After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it or process it without dequeueing. Dequeue allows elv_next_request() to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight. Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with segments only without considering request boundary. However, the benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API ambiguity is increasing. Segment based drivers are usually for very old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer and its more modern users. Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing model. This patch completes the API transition by... * renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request() * renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request() * adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start * disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests * applying new API to all LLDs Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

Other than in issue error paths, ps3disk always completely finishes fetched requests. With full completion on error paths, it can be easily converted to dequeueing model. * After L1 r/w call failure, ps3disk_submit_request_sg() now fails the whole request. Issue failure isn't likely to benefit from partial retry anyway and ps3disk uses full failure in completion error path too, so I don't think this amounts to any meaningful functionality loss. * flush completion is converted to _all for consistency. It doesn't make any functional difference. [ Impact: dequeue in-flight request ] Signed-off-by:

Note that removal of elv_next_request() call from pf_next_buf() doesn't make any functional difference.
