Remove the duplicate of the DASD uid from the devmap structure.
Use the uid from the device private structure instead.

For base Parallel Access Volume (PAV) there is a fixed mapping of
base and alias devices. With dynamic PAV this mapping can be changed
so that an alias device is used with another base device.
This patch enables the DASD device driver to tolerate dynamic PAV

The various dasd_sleep_on functions use a global wait queue when
waiting for a cqr. The wait condition checks the status and devlist
fields of the cqr to determine if it is safe to continue. This
evaluation may return true, although the tasklet has not finished
processing of the cqr and the callback function has not been called
yet. When the callback is finally called, the data in the cqr may
already be invalid. The sleep_on wait condition needs a safe way to
determine if the tasklet has finished processing. Use the
callback_data field of the cqr to store a token, which is set by
the callback function itself.Cc:

…it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Setting a DASD online and offline in quick succession may cause
a kernel panic or let the chhccwdev command wait forever.
The Online process is split into two parts. After the first part
is finished the offline process may be called. This may result

set the DASD offline as well.
Use a mutex to protect online and offline against each other.

Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading
spaces from strings all over the tree.It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide:

64641 584 592 65817 10119 (TOTALS-AFTER)Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to
remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space".Julia Lawall tried the semantic patch (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr) below,

The first DASD that is set online for a specific logical control unit
has to do certain setup steps on the storage server to make full use
of it, for example it will enable PAV.

to wait for the setup to be finished.Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber

Most of the error conditions reported by a FICON storage server
indicate situations which can be recovered. Sometimes the host just
needs to retry an I/O request, but sometimes the recovery
is more complex and requires the device driver to wait, choose
a different path, etc.The DASD device driver has a fully featured error recovery
for normal block layer I/O, but not for internal I/O request which
are for example used during the device bring up.
This can lead to situations where the IPL of a system fails because
DASD devices are not properly recognized.
This patch will extend the internal I/O handling to use the existing
error recovery procedures.Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber

The DASD device driver needs to explicitly enable the prefix command

When a DASD device is used with the DIAG discipline, the DIAG
initialization will indicate success or error with a respective
return code. So far we have interpreted a return code of 4 as error,
but it actually means that the initialization was successful, but
the device is read-only. To allow read-only devices to be used with
DIAG we need to accept a return code of 4 as success.Re-initialization of the DIAG access is also part of the DIAG error
recovery. If we find that the access mode of a device has been
changed from writable to read-only while the device was in use,
we print an error message.Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber

There is a race while re-reading the device characteristics. After
cleaning the memory area a cqr is build which reads the device
characteristics. This may take a rather long time and the device
characteristics structure is zero during this. Now it could be
possible that the block tasklet starts working and a new cqr will be
build. The build_cp command refers to the device characteristics
structure and this may lead into a divide by zero exception.
Fix this by re-reading the device characteristics into a temporary
structur and copy the data to the original structure. Also take the
ccwdev_lock.Signed-off-by: Stefan Haberland

The DASD device driver reads the feature codes of a device during
device initialization. These codes are later used to determine the
availability of advanced features like PAV or High Performance FICON.
Some very old devices do not support the command to read feature
codes and the initialization routine fails.
As the feature codes are not necessary for basic DASD operations, we
can support such devices by just ignoring missing feature codes.Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber
