This patch exports the per-gendisk command filter to user space through sysfs, so it can be changed by the system administrator. All users of the old cmd filter have been converted to use the new one. Original patch from Peter Jones.

Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along with the I/O. This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and requests that have this extra information attached. See Documentation/block/data-integrity.txt for more information. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume path by preventing the allocations from doing IO and allowing them to access the emergency pools. These paths are used when a frontend device is trying to connect to its backend driver over Xenbus. These reconnections are triggered on demand by IO, so by definition there is already IO underway, and further IO would naturally deadlock. On resume, this path is triggered when the running system tries to continue using its devices. If it cannot then the resume will fail; to try to avoid this we let it dip into the emergency pools.

If we have multiple tasks freeing io contexts when as-iosched is being unloaded, we could complete() ioc_gone twice. Fix that by protecting ioc_gone complete() and clearing with a spinlock for just that purpose. Doesn't matter from a performance perspective, since it'll only enter that path when ioc_gone != NULL (when as-iosched is being rmmod'ed). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

When scheduled swaps occur, we need to blit between front & back buffers. If the buffers are tiled, we need to set the appropriate XY_SRC_COPY tile bit, but only on 965 chips, since it will cause corruption on pre-965 (e.g. 945).

During the development of the physical PCI slot patch series, Gary Hade kept on reporting strange oopses due to interactions between pci_slot and acpiphp. http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/28/319 find_root_bridges() unconditionally installs handle_hotplug_event_bridge() as an ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY handler for all root bridges. However, during module cleanup, remove_bridge() will only remove the notify handler iff the root bridge had a hot-pluggable slot directly underneath. That is: root bridge -> hotplug slot But, if the topology looks like either of the following: root bridge -> non-hotplug slot root bridge -> p2p bridge -> hotplug slot Then we currently do not remove the notify handler from that root bridge. This can cause a kernel oops if we modprobe acpiphp later and it gets loaded somewhere else in memory. If the root bridge then receives a hotplug event, it will then attempt to call a stale, non-existent notify handler and we blow up. Much thanks goes to Gary Hade for his persistent debugging efforts.
