• 6da127ad0   blktrace: Add blktrace ioctls to SCSI generic devices ... Browse Code »

  Since the SCSI layer uses the request queues from the block layer, blktrace can
  also be used to trace the requests to all SCSI devices (like SCSI tape drives),
  not only disks. The only missing part is the ioctl interface to start and stop
  tracing.

  This patch adds the SETUP, START, STOP and TEARDOWN ioctls from blktrace to the
  sg device files. With this change, blktrace can be used for SCSI devices like
  for disks, e.g.: blktrace -d /dev/sg1 -o - | blkparse -i -

• 33013a881   compat_ioctl: fix block device compat ioctl regression ... Browse Code »

  The conversion of handlers to compat_blkdev_ioctl accidentally
  disabled handling of most ioctl numbers on block devices because
  of a typo. Fix the one line to enable it all again.

• 1ca91cd03   compat_ioctl: move floppy handlers to block/compat_ioctl.c ... Browse Code »

  The floppy ioctls are used by multiple drivers, so they should be
  handled in a shared location. Also, add minor cleanups.

  These are shared by all cd-rom drivers and should have common
  handlers. Do slight cosmetic cleanups in the process.

  BLKPG is common to all block devices, so it should be handled
  by common code.

  These are common to multiple block drivers, so they should
  be handled by the block layer.

  blk_trace_setup is broken on x86_64 compat systems,
  this makes the code work correctly on all 64 bit architectures
  in compat mode.

  Handle those blockdev ioctl calls that are compatible
  directly from the compat_blkdev_ioctl() function, instead
  of having to go through the compat_ioctl hash lookup.

• f58c4c0a1   compat_ioctl: move common block ioctls to compat_blkdev_ioctl ... Browse Code »

  Make compat_blkdev_ioctl and blkdev_ioctl reflect the respective
  native versions. This is somewhat more efficient and makes it easier
  to keep the two in sync.

  Also get rid of the bogus handling for broken_blkgetsize and the
  duplicate entry for BLKRASET.
