Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c. Export
kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it. Reduce
buffer_head.h requirement accordingly.Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit
obsolete to bother moving. The small comment replacing it says enough.Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin

If an IO request is build on an alias device without prefix enabled
we try to calculate with zero data from the alias device. This
triggers a BUG statement with fixpoint divide exception.
This case is very unlikely and can only happen if the pathgroup is
lost with an alias device already in use.
Prevent the alias device from being used in this case.Signed-off-by: Stefan Haberland

Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky -
The 'expires' value of a ccw requests defines how long the device
driver should wait for a response from the evice after the request has
been submitted to the channel subsystem. After the expiration time
(e.g. 30 seconds) the waiting request will be cancelled and started
again. This protects the DASD devices from beeing blocked by errors
that cause the answering I/O interrupt to be lost.In case of error recovery requests, this 'expires' value used to be
set to 0, so in case of a lost interrupt, such a recovery request
would never expire and block the device. To prevent this kind of
problem, all recovery requests need to have an expires value > 0 as
well. If not specified otherwise, this should be the same expires
value as for the original request.Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber

There is very little benefit in allowing to let a ->make_request
instance update the bios device and sector and loop around it in
__generic_make_request when we can archive the same through calling
generic_make_request from the driver and letting the loop in
generic_make_request handle it.Note that various drivers got the return value from ->make_request and
returned non-zero values for errors.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

This patch extends the DASD statistics to allow for a more detailed
analysis of DASD I/O operations. In particular we want the statistics
to provide answers to the following questions:
- How many requests used a PAV alias?
- How many requests used High Performance FICON?
- How do read request perform versus write requests?The existing DASD statistics interface has several shortcomings
- The interface for global data is a formatted text table in procfs
(/proc/dasd/statistics). The layout is meant for human readers and
is not to easy to parse. If values get to large for the table
layout, they get scaled down.
- The statistics which are collected per block device can be
accessed via an ioctl interface, which can only be extended by
defining a new ioctl.
- There is no statistics interface for individual PAV base and alias
devices.To overcome theses shortcomings we create a new DASD statistics
interface in debugfs. This interface will contain one entry for global
data, one per DASD block device, and one per DASD base and alias
device. Each file contains the statistic data in easy to parse
name/value and name/array pairs. The existing interfaces will remain
functional, but they will not be extended.Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber

Merge irq.c and s390_ext.c into irq.c. That way all external interrupt
related functions are together.Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens
Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky -
Interrupt sources like pfault, sclp, dasd_diag and virtio all use the
service signal external interrupt subclass mask in control register 0
to enable and disable the corresponding interrupt.
Because no reference counting is implemented each subsystem thinks it
is the only user of subclass and sets and clears the bit like it wants.
This leads to case that unloading the dasd diag module under z/VM
causes both sclp and pfault interrupts to be masked. The result will
be locked up system sooner or later.
Fix this by introducing a new way to set (register) and clear
(unregister) the service signal subclass mask bit in cr0.
Also convert all drivers.Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens

pfault, dasd diag and virtio all use the same external interrupt number.
The respective interrupt handlers decide by the subcode if they are
meant to handle the interrupt.
Counting is currently done before looking at the subcode which means
each handler counts an interrupt even if it is not handling it.
Fix this by moving the kstat code after the code which looks at the
subcode.Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens

When evaluating sense data in dasd_eckd_check_for_device_change, we

Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky -
The dasd_open function uses the private_data pointer of the gendisk to
find the dasd_block structure that matches the gendisk. When a DASD
device is set offline, we set the private_data pointer of the gendisk
to NULL and later remove the dasd_block structure, but there is still
a small race window, in which dasd_open could first read a pointer
from the private_data field and then try to use it, after the structure
has already been freed.
To close this race window, we will store a pointer to the dasd_devmap
structure of the base device in the private_data field. The devmap
entries are not deleted, and we already have proper locking and
reference counting in place, so that we can safely get from a devmap
pointer to the dasd_device and dasd_block structures of the device.Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber
