bsg submits REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC so the right check is max_hw_sectors.
But I've removed this check because right after, bsg proceeds with
calling blk_rq_map_user() which does all the right checks.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

Put a WARN_ON in __blk_put_request if it is about to
leak bio(s). This is a serious bug that can happen in error
handling code paths.For this to work I have fixed a couple of places in block/ where
request->bio != NULL ownership was not honored. And a small cleanup
at sg_io() while at it.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

Currently inherited from sg.c bsg will submit asynchronous request
at the head-of-the-queue, (using "at_head" set in the call to
blk_execute_rq_nowait()). This is bad in situation where the queues
are full, requests will execute out of order, and can cause
starvation of the first submitted requests.The sg_io_v4->flags member is used and a bit is allocated to denote the
Q_AT_TAIL. Zero is to queue at_head as before, to be compatible with old
code at the write/read path. SG_IO code path behavior was changed so to
be the same as write/read behavior. SG_IO was very rarely used and breaking
compatibility with it is OK at this stage.sg_io_hdr at sg.h also has a flags member and uses 3 bits from the first
nibble and one bit from the last nibble. Even though none of these bits
are supported by bsg, The second nibble is allocated for use by bsg. Just
in case.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

Commit 1e42807918d17e8c93bf14fbb74be84b141334c1 introduced a bug where we
don't get front/back segment sizes in the bio in blk_recount_segments().
Fix this by tracking the back bio as well as the front bio in
__blk_recalc_rq_segments(), this also cleans up the interface by getting
rid of the segment size pointer passing.Tested-by: Thomas Gleixner

blk_recalc_rq_segments() requires a request structure passed in, which
we don't have from blk_recount_segments(). So the latter allocates one on
the stack, using > 400 bytes of stack for that. This can cause us to spill

blk_abort_queue() iterates the timeout list and aborts each request on the
list, but if the driver error handling readds a request to the timeout list
during this processing, we could be looping forever. Fix this by splicing
current entries to a local list and run over that list instead.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

Hi Tejun,
it looks like your commit:
block: don't depend on consecutive minor space
f331c0296f2a9fee0d396a70598b954062603015broke a particular case for booting from partitioned md/raid devices.
That is the second time this has been broken recently. The previous
time was fixed byblock: do_mounts - accept root=
30f2f0eb4bd2c43d10a8b0d872c6e5ad8f31c9a0Because the data isn't available when an md device is first created
(we add disks and set it up after creation), the initial partition
scan finds nothing. It is not until the device is opened that
another partition scan happens and finds something.So at the point where the kernel parameter "root=/dev/md_d0p1" is
being parsed, md_d0 exists, but md_d0p1 does not.
However if we let blk_lookup_devt return the correct device number
even though the device doesn't exist, then the attempt to mount it
will successfully find the partition.I have tried in the past to find a way to get the partition table to
be read as soon as the array is assembled but that proved impossible
(at the time). I don't remember the details, and could possibly
revisit it. However it would be really nice if blk_lookup_devt
could be adjusted to again accept non existant partitions.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

When submitting requests via SG_IO, which does a sync io, a
bsg_command is not allocated. So an in-Kernel sense_buffer was not
set. However when calling blk_execute_rq() with no sense buffer
one is provided from the stack. Now bsg at blk_complete_sgv4_hdr_rq()
would check if rq->sense_len and a sense was requested by sg_io_v4
the rq->sense was copy_user() back, but by now it is already mangled
stack memory.I have fixed that by forcing a sense_buffer when calling bsg_map_hdr().
The bsg_command->sense is provided in the write/read path like before,
and on-the-stack buffer is provided when doing SG_IO.I have also fixed a dprintk message to print rq->errors in hex because
of the scsi bit-field use of this member. For other block devices it
does not matter anyway.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

This patch adds the ability to pre-empt an ongoing BE timeslice when a RT
request is waiting for the current timeslice to complete. This reduces the
wait time to disk for RT requests from an upper bound of 4 (current value
of cfq_quantum) to 1 disk request.Applied Jens' suggeested changes to avoid the rb lookup and use !cfq_class_rt()
and retested.Latency(secs) for the RT task when doing sequential reads from 10G file.

Original patch from Nikanth Karthikesan
When a queue exits the queue lock is taken and cfq_exit_queue() would free all
the cic's associated with the queue.But when a task exits, cfq_exit_io_context() gets cic one by one and then
locks the associated queue to call __cfq_exit_single_io_context. It looks like
between getting a cic from the ioc and locking the queue, the queue might have
exited on another cpu.Fix this by rechecking the cfq_io_context queue key inside the queue lock
again, and not calling into __cfq_exit_single_io_context() if somebody
beat us to it.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

zero is invalid for max_phys_segments, max_hw_segments, and

min. min() works though (because the commit 0e435ac makes sure that
these values are set to the default values, non zero, if a queue is
initialized properly).With this patch, blk_queue_stack_limits does the almost same thing
that dm's combine_restrictions_low() does. I think that it's easy to
remove dm's combine_restrictions_low.Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori
