* directio: add block polling supportJens Axboe2015-11-071-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | This adds support for sync O_DIRECT read/write poll support. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com> [hch: split from a larger patch, minor updates] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Acked-by: Keith Busch <keith.busch@intel.com>
* NVMe: add blk polling supportJens Axboe2015-11-071-4/+28
| | | | | | | | | | Add nvme_poll(), which will check a specific completion queue for command completions. Wire that up to the new block layer poll mechanism. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Acked-by: Keith Busch <keith.busch@intel.com>
* block: add block polling supportJens Axboe2015-11-075-0/+99
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add basic support for polling for specific IO to complete. This uses the cookie that blk-mq passes back, which enables the block layer to pass this cookie to the driver to spin for a specific request. This will be combined with request latency tracking, so we can make qualified decisions about when to poll and when not to. For now, for benchmark purposes, we add a sysfs file that controls whether polling is enabled or not.

* blk-mq: return tag/queue combo in the make_request_fn handlersJens Axboe2015-11-071-17/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | Return a cookie, blk_qc_t, from the blk-mq make request functions, that allows a later caller to uniquely identify a specific IO. The cookie doesn't mean anything to the caller, but the caller can use it to later pass back to the block layer. The block layer can then identify the hardware queue and request from that cookie.

| * misc: sram: extend usage of reserved partitionsVladimir Zapolskiy2015-10-182-8/+204
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds functionality to operate on reserved SRAM partitions described in device tree file. Two partition properties are added, "pool" and "export", the first one allows to share a specific partition for usage by a kernel consumer in the same manner as it is done for the whole SRAM device, and "export" property provides access to some SRAM area from userspace over sysfs interface. Practically it is possible to specify both properties for an SRAM partition, however simultaneous access from a kernel consumer and from userspace is not serialized, but still the combination may be useful for debugging purpose. The change opens the following scenarios of SRAM usage: * updates in a particular SRAM area specified by offset and size are done by bootloader, then this information is utilized by the kernel, * a particular SRAM area is rw accessed from userspace, the stored data is persistent on soft reboots, * a device driver secures SRAM area for its purposes, * etc. Note, strictly speaking the added optional properties describe policy of SRAM usage, rather than hardware, but here the policy mostly resembles flash partitions in devicetree, which is undoubtedly a very popular option but it does not describe hardware.
