Kay Sievers edfaa7c365 Driver core: convert block from raw kobjects to core devices
This moves the block devices to /sys/class/block. It will create a
flat list of all block devices, with the disks and partitions in one
directory. For compatibility /sys/block is created and contains symlinks
to the disks.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 3514faca19 kobject: remove struct kobj_type from struct kset
We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset.  We should set this
explicitly every time for each kset.  This change is needed so that we
can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented
assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has.

This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers.

Aneesh Kumar K.V 35fc51e7a5 blktrace: Make sure BLKTRACETEARDOWN does the full cleanup.
if blktrace program segfault it will not be able
to call BLKTRACETEARDOWN. Now if we run the blktrace
again that would result in a failure to create the
block/<device> debugfs directory.This will result
in blk_remove_root() to be called which will set
blk_tree_root to NULL. But the  debugfs block dir
still exist because it contain subdirectory.

Now if we try to fix it using BLKTRACETEARDOWN
it won't work because blk_tree_root is NULL.

Fix the same.

Jens Axboe d85532ed28 block: fix requeue handling in blk_queue_invalidate_tags()
Credit goes to juergen.kadidlo@exasol.com for diagnosing this issue
and supplying the initial patch.

blk_queue_invalidate_tags() must use the proper requeueing paths instead
of open coding the re-add of the request, otherwise we bug out in rq
accounting. Just switch to using blk_requeue_request(), that takes care
of end-tag handling as well and also adds the blktrace REQUEUE notify
event that is also appropriate here.

Oleg Nesterov b70c864d3c cfq: fix IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE delays
After the fresh boot:

	ionice -c3 -p $$
	echo cfq >> /sys/block/XXX/queue/scheduler
	dd if=/dev/XXX of=/dev/null bs=512 count=1

Now dd hangs in D state and the queue is completely stalled for approximately
INITIAL_JIFFIES + CFQ_IDLE_GRACE jiffies. This is because cfq_init_queue()
forgets to initialize cfq_data->last_end_request.

(I guess this patch is not complete, overflow is still possible)

After switching data directions, deadline always starts the next batch
from the lowest-sector request.  This gives excessive deadline expiries
and large latency and throughput disparity between high- and low-sector
requests; an order of magnitude in some tests.

request whose expiry is earliest.

Aaron Carroll dfb3d72a9a Deadline iosched: Reset batch for ordered requests
The deadline I/O scheduler does not reset the batch count when starting
a new batch at a higher-sectored request.  This means the second and
subsequent batch in the same data direction will never exceed a single
request in size whenever higher-sectored requests are pending.

This patch gives new batches in the same data direction as old ones
their full quota of requests by resetting the batch count.

Jens Axboe c46f2334c8 [SG] Get rid of __sg_mark_end()
sg_mark_end() overwrites the page_link information, but all users want
__sg_mark_end() behaviour where we just set the end bit. That is the most
natural way to use the sg list, since you'll fill it in and then mark the

So change sg_mark_end() to only set the termination bit. Add a sg_magic
debug check as well, and clear a chain pointer if it is set.

Jens Axboe 6eca9004df [BLOCK] Fix bad sharing of tag busy list on queues with shared tag maps
For the locking to work, only the tag map and tag bit map may be shared
(incidentally, I was just explaining this to Nick yesterday, but I
apparently didn't review the code well enough myself). But we also share
the busy list!  The busy_list must be queue private, or we need a
block_queue_tag covering lock as well.

So we have to move the busy_list to the queue. This'll work fine, and
it'll actually also fix a problem with blk_queue_invalidate_tags() which
will invalidate tags across all shared queues. This is a bit confusing,
the low level driver should call it for each queue seperately since
otherwise you cannot kill tags on just a single queue for eg a hard
drive that stops responding. Since the function has no callers
currently, it's not an issue.

The memset() of the sg entry was originally removed, because it could
overwrite a chain pointer. But it's quite OK to memset() it when we know
it's a valid entry, since it can't contain a chain pointer.

Fengguang Wu f2e189827a readahead: remove the limit max_sectors_kb imposed on max_readahead_kb
Remove the size limit max_sectors_kb imposed on max_readahead_kb.

The size restriction is unreasonable.  Especially when max_sectors_kb cannot
grow larger than max_hw_sectors_kb, which can be rather small for some disk
drives.

Mike Travis d5a7430ddc Convert cpu_sibling_map to be a per cpu variable
Convert cpu_sibling_map from a static array sized by NR_CPUS to a per_cpu
variable.  This saves sizeof(cpumask_t) * NR unused cpus.  Access is mostly
from startup and CPU HOTPLUG functions.
