ca18d6f769 block: Make most scsi_req_init() calls implicit
Instead of explicitly calling scsi_req_init() after blk_get_request(),
call that function from inside blk_get_request(). Add an
.initialize_rq_fn() callback function to the block drivers that need
it. Merge the IDE .init_rq_fn() function into .initialize_rq_fn()
because it is too small to keep it as a separate function. Keep the
scsi_req_init() call in ide_prep_sense() because it follows a
blk_rq_init() call.

2a842acab1 block: introduce new block status code type
Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.

For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.

blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

d9f9726446 bsg: Check queue type before attaching to a queue
Since BSG only supports request queues for which struct scsi_request

17d5363b83 scsi: introduce a result field in struct scsi_request
This passes on the scsi_cmnd result field to users of passthrough
requests.  Currently we abuse req->errors for this purpose, but that
field will go away in its current form.

Note that the old IDE code abuses the errors field in very creative
ways and stores all kinds of different values in it.  I didn't dare
to touch this magic, so the abuses are brought forward 1:1.

5b5e0928f7 lib/vsprintf.c: remove %Z support
Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.

Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers.

In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which
is in my opinion is quite an achievement.  Hopefully this patch inspires
someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.

aebf526b53 block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ space
Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it
all into the operations.  The little caveat here is that previously
cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op
fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough
operations.

Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

2c56124652 block: Simplify bsg complete all
It took me a few tries to figure out what this code did; lets rewrite
it into a more regular form.

The thing that makes this one 'special' is the BSG_F_BLOCK flag, if
that is not set we're not supposed/allowed to block and should spin
wait for completion.

The (new) io_wait_event() will never see a false condition in case of
the spinning and we will therefore not block.

a492f07545 block,scsi: fixup blk_get_request dead queue scenarios
The blk_get_request function may fail in low-memory conditions or during
device removal (even if __GFP_WAIT is set). To distinguish between these
errors, modify the blk_get_request call stack to return the appropriate
ERR_PTR. Verify that all callers check the return status and consider
IS_ERR instead of a simple NULL pointer check.

For consistency, make a similar change to the blk_mq_alloc_request leg
of blk_get_request.  It may fail if the queue is dead, or the caller was
unwilling to wait.

f27b087b81 block: add blk_rq_set_block_pc()
With the optimizations around not clearing the full request at alloc
time, we are leaving some of the needed init for REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC
up to the user allocating the request.

Add a blk_rq_set_block_pc() that sets the command type to
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC, and properly initializes the members associated
with this type of request. Update callers to use this function instead
of manipulating rq->cmd_type directly.

Includes fixes from Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> for my half-assed
attempt.

bsg currently checks ->request_fn to check whether a queue can
handle struct request. But with blk-mq, we don't have a request_fn
yet are request based. Add a queue_is_rq_based() helper and use

b67bfe0d42 hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

c7a841f3ac [SCSI] bsg: correct fault if queue object removed while dev_t open
This patch corrects an issue in bsg that results in a general protection
fault if an LLD is removed while an application is using an open file
handle to a bsg device, and the application issues an ioctl. The fault
occurs because the class_dev is NULL, having been cleared in
bsg_unregister_queue() when the driver was removed.  With this
patch, a check is made for the class_dev, and the application
will receive ENXIO if the related object is gone.

6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

2a48fc0ab2 block: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex
The block device drivers have all gained new lock_kernel

This turns the BKL into a set of per-driver mutexes.
Still need to check whether this is safe to do.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit 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 allmodconfig

8. 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.

c3a4d78c58 block: add rq->resid_len
rq->data_len served two purposes - the length of data buffer on issue
and the residual count on completion.  This duality creates some
headaches.

First of all, block layer and low level drivers can't really determine
what rq->data_len contains while a request is executing.  It could be
the total request length or it coulde be anything else one of the
lower layers is using to keep track of residual count.  This
complicates things because blk_rq_bytes() and thus
[__]blk_end_request_all() relies on rq->data_len for PC commands.
Drivers which want to report residual count should first cache the
total request length, update rq->data_len and then complete the
request with the cached data length.

Secondly, it makes requests default to reporting full residual count,
ie. reporting that no data transfer occurred.  The residual count is
an exception not the norm; however, the driver should clear
rq->data_len to zero to signify the normal cases while leaving it
alone means no data transfer occurred at all.  This reverse default
behavior complicates code unnecessarily and renders block PC on some
drivers (ide-tape/floppy) unuseable.

This patch adds rq->resid_len which is used only for residual count.

While at it, remove now unnecessasry blk_rq_bytes() caching in
ide_pc_intr() as rq->data_len is not changed anymore.

Boaz	: spotted missing conversion in osd
Sergei	: spotted too early conversion to blk_rq_bytes() in ide-tape

[ Impact: cleanup residual count handling, report 0 resid by default ]

 are full, requests will execute out of order, and can cause
 starvation of the first submitted requests.

The sg_io_v4->flags member is used and a bit is allocated to denote the
Q_AT_TAIL. Zero is to queue at_head as before, to be compatible with old
code at the write/read path. SG_IO code path behavior was changed so to
be the same as write/read behavior. SG_IO was very rarely used and breaking
compatibility with it is OK at this stage.

sg_io_hdr at sg.h also has a flags member and uses 3 bits from the first
nibble and one bit from the last nibble. Even though none of these bits
are supported by bsg, The second nibble is allocated for use by bsg. Just
in case.

c1c201200a bsg: Fix sense buffer bug in SG_IO
When submitting requests via SG_IO, which does a sync io, a
bsg_command is not allocated. So an in-Kernel sense_buffer was not
set. However when calling blk_execute_rq() with no sense buffer
one is provided from the stack. Now bsg at blk_complete_sgv4_hdr_rq()
would check if rq->sense_len and a sense was requested by sg_io_v4
the rq->sense was copy_user() back, but by now it is already mangled
stack memory.

I have fixed that by forcing a sense_buffer when calling bsg_map_hdr().
The bsg_command->sense is provided in the write/read path like before,
and on-the-stack buffer is provided when doing SG_IO.

I have also fixed a dprintk message to print rq->errors in hex because
of the scsi bit-field use of this member. For other block devices it
does not matter anyway.

f2f1fa78a1 Enforce a minimum SG_IO timeout
There's no point in having too short SG_IO timeouts, since if the
command does end up timing out, we'll end up through the reset sequence
that is several seconds long in order to abort the command that timed
out.

As a result, shorter timeouts than a few seconds simply do not make
sense, as the recovery would be longer than the timeout itself.

Add a BLK_MIN_SG_TIMEOUT to match the existign BLK_DEFAULT_SG_TIMEOUT.
