    Export blkdev_driver_ioctl for device-mapper.

    If we get as far as the device-mapper ioctl handler, we know the ioctl is not
    a standard block layer BLK* one, so we don't need to check for them a second
    time and can call blkdev_driver_ioctl() directly.

    Semaphore to mutex conversion.

    The conversion was generated via scripts, and the result was validated
    automatically via a script as well.

  • a885c8c43   [PATCH] Add block_device_operations.getgeo block device method ... Browse Code »

    HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to
    duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting
    the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a
    ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many
    drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now.

    [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start
    to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts
    the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard
    sector size.
