* partitions: read whole sector with EFI GPT headerKarel Zak2009-11-232-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The size of EFI GPT header is not static, but whole sector is allocated for the header. The HeaderSize field must be greater than 92 (= sizeof(struct gpt_header) and must be less than or equal to the logical block size. It means we have to read whole sector with the header, because the header crc32 checksum is calculated according to HeaderSize. For more details see UEFI standard (version 2.3, May 2009): - 5.3.1 GUID Format overview, page 93 - Table 13.

* partitions: use sector size for EFI GPTKarel Zak2009-11-231-8/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, kernel uses strictly 512-byte sectors for EFI GPT parsing. That's wrong. UEFI standard (version 2.3, May 2009, 5.3.1 GUID Format overview, page 95) defines that LBA is always based on the logical block size. It means bdev_logical_block_size() (aka BLKSSZGET) for Linux. This patch removes static sector size from EFI GPT parser. The problem is reproducible with the latest GNU Parted: # modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=50 sector_size=4096 # ./parted /dev/sdb print Model: Linux scsi_debug (scsi) Disk /dev/sdb: 52.4MB Sector size (logical/physical): 4096B/4096B Partition Table: gpt Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 24.6kB 3002kB 2978kB primary 2 3002kB 6001kB 2998kB primary 3 6001kB 9003kB 3002kB primary # blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb # dmesg | tail -1 sdb: unknown partition table <---- !!! with this patch: # blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb # dmesg | tail -1 sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3 Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* block: Seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requests v2Nikanth Karthikesan2009-10-061-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit a9327cac440be4d8333bba975cbbf76045096275 added seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requests. And exported the number of read and write requests in progress seperately through sysfs. But Corrado Zoccolo <czoccolo@gmail.com> reported getting strange output from "iostat -kx 2". Global values for service time and utilization were garbage. For interval values, utilization was always 100%, and service time is higher than normal. So this was reverted by commit 0f78ab9899e9d6acb09d5465def618704255963b The problem was in part_round_stats_single(), I missed the following: if (now == part->stamp) return; - if (part->in_flight) { + if (part_in_flight(part)) { __part_stat_add(cpu, part, time_in_queue, part_in_flight(part) * (now - part->stamp)); __part_stat_add(cpu, part, io_ticks, (now - part->stamp)); With this chunk included, the reported regression gets fixed.

* | block: Export I/O topology for block devices and partitionsMartin K. Petersen2009-05-221-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To support devices with physical block sizes bigger than 512 bytes we need to ensure proper alignment. This patch adds support for exposing I/O topology characteristics as devices are stacked. logical_block_size is the smallest unit the device can address. physical_block_size indicates the smallest I/O the device can write without incurring a read-modify-write penalty. The io_min parameter is the smallest preferred I/O size reported by the device. In many cases this is the same as the physical block size. However, the io_min parameter can be scaled up when stacking (RAID5 chunk size > physical block size). The io_opt characteristic indicates the optimal I/O size reported by the device. This is usually the stripe width for arrays. The alignment_offset parameter indicates the number of bytes the start of the device/partition is offset from the device's natural alignment. Partition tools and MD/DM utilities can use this to pad their offsets so filesystems start on proper boundaries. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device. With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain 512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size and the logical ditto. This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Configuration is done thru sysfs, adding a "trace" directory to the partition directory where blktrace can be enabled for the associated request_queue. The same filters present in the IOCTL interface are present as sysfs device attributes. The /sys/block/sdX/sdXN/trace/enable file allows tracing without any filters. The other files in this directory: pid, act_mask, start_lba and end_lba can be used with the same meaning as with the IOCTL interface. Using the sysfs interface will only setup the request_queue->blk_trace fields, tracing will only take place when the "blk" tracer is selected via the ftrace interface, as in the following example: To see the trace, one can use the /d/tracing/trace file or the /d/tracign/trace_pipe file, with semantics defined in the ftrace documentation in Documentation/ftrace.txt.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements uevent suppress in kobject and removes it from struct device, based on the following ideas: 1,Uevent sending should be one attribute of kobject, so suppressing it in kobject layer is more natural than in device layer. By this way, we can do it for other objects embedded with kobject. 2,It may save several bytes for each instance of struct device.(On my omap3(32bit ARM) based box, can save 8bytes per device object) This patch also introduces dev_set|get_uevent_suppress() helpers to set and query uevent_suppress attribute in case to help kobject as private part of struct device in future.

* block: add partition attribute for partition numberTejun Heo2008-10-171-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With extended devt, finding out the partition number becomes a bit more challenging as subtracting the minor number from that of the parent device doesn't work anymore. The only thing left is parsing the partition name which is brittle and not exactly universal (some have '-' between the device name and partition number while others don't). This patch introduced partition attribute which contains the partition number of the device. This should make finding partitions and its index easier. This problem and solution were suggested by H. Peter Anvin. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* block: allow disk to have extended device numberTejun Heo2008-10-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that disk and partition handlings are mostly unified, it's easy to allow disk to have extended device number. This patch makes add_disk() use extended device number if disk->minors is zero. Both sd and ide-disk are updated to use this. * sd_format_disk_name() is implemented which can generically determine the drive name. This removes disk number restriction stemming from limited device names. * If sd index goes over SD_MAX_DISKS (which can be increased now BTW), sd simply doesn't initialize minors letting block layer choose extended device number. * If CONFIG_DEBUG_EXT_DEVT is set, both sd and ide-disk always set minors to 0 and use extended device numbers.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With previous changes, it's meaningless to limit the number of partitions. Replace @ext_minors with GENHD_FL_EXT_DEVT such that setting the flag allows the disk to have maximum number of allowed partitions (only limited by the number of entries in parsed_partitions as determined by MAX_PART constant). This kills not-too-pretty alloc_disk_ext[_node]() functions and makes @minors parameter to alloc_disk[_node]() unnecessary. The parameter is left alone to avoid disturbing the users.

Combined with the above changes, this makes NULL special case handling in callers unnecessary. * Separate stats show code paths for disk are collapsed into part stats show code paths. * Rename disk_stat_lock/unlock() to part_stat_lock/unlock() While at it, reposition stat handling macros a bit and add missing parentheses around macro parameters.

* block: introduce partition 0Tejun Heo2008-10-091-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | genhd and partition code handled disk and partitions separately. All information about the whole disk was in struct genhd and partitions in struct hd_struct. However, the whole disk (part0) and other partitions have a lot in common and the data structures end up having good number of common fields and thus separate code paths doing the same thing. Also, the partition array was indexed by partno - 1 which gets pretty confusing at times. This patch introduces partition 0 and makes the partition array indexed by partno. Following patches will unify the handling of disk and parts piece-by-piece. This patch also implements disk_partitionable() which tests whether a disk is partitionable. With coming dynamic partition array change, the most common usage of disk_max_parts() will be testing whether a disk is partitionable and the number of max partitions will become much less important.

* block: implement extended dev numbersTejun Heo2008-10-091-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement extended device numbers. A block driver can tell block layer that it wants to use extended device numbers. After the usual minor space is used up, block layer automatically allocates devt's from EXT_BLOCK_MAJOR. Currently only one major number is allocated for this but as the allocation is strictly on-demand, ~1mil minor space under it should suffice unless the system actually has more than ~1mil partitions and if that ever happens adding more majors to the extended devt area is easy. Due to internal implementation issues, the first partition can't be allocated on the extended area. In other words, genhd->minors should at least be 1. This limitation will be lifted by later changes. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* block: fix diskstats accessTejun Heo2008-10-091-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two variants of stat functions - ones prefixed with double underbars which don't care about preemption and ones without which disable preemption before manipulating per-cpu counters. It's unclear whether the underbarred ones assume that preemtion is disabled on entry as some callers don't do that. This patch unifies diskstats access by implementing disk_stat_lock() and disk_stat_unlock() which take care of both RCU (for partition access) and preemption (for per-cpu counter access). diskstats access should always be enclosed between the two functions. As such, there's no need for the versions which disables preemption. They're removed and double underbars ones are renamed to drop the underbars. As an extra argument is added, there's no danger of using the old version unconverted. disk_stat_lock() uses get_cpu() and returns the cpu index and all diskstat functions which access per-cpu counters now has @cpu argument to help RT. This change adds RCU or preemption operations at some places but also collapses several preemption ops into one at others. Overall, the performance difference should be negligible as all involved ops are very lightweight per-cpu ones.

* block: fix disk->part[] dereferencing raceTejun Heo2008-10-091-25/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | disk->part[] is protected by its matching bdev's lock. However, non-critical accesses like collecting stats and printing out sysfs and proc information used to be performed without any locking. As partitions can come and go dynamically, partitions can go away underneath those non-critical accesses. As some of those accesses are writes, this theoretically can lead to silent corruption. This patch fixes the race by using RCU for the partition array and dev reference counter to hold partitions. * Rename disk->part[] to disk->__part[] to make sure no one outside genhd layer proper accesses it directly. * Use RCU for disk->__part[] dereferencing. * Implement disk_{get|put}_part() which can be used to get and put partitions from gendisk respectively. * Iterators are implemented to help iterate through all partitions safely. * Functions which require RCU readlock are marked with _rcu suffix. * Use disk_put_part() in __blkdev_put() instead of directly putting the contained kobject.

However, convert them for consistency. * Implement disk_max_parts() to avoid directly deferencing genhd->minors. * Update bdget_disk() such that it doesn't assume consecutive minor space. * Move devt computation from register_disk() to add_disk() and make it the only one (all other usages use the initially determined value).
