usb/ub: deprecate & schedule for removal the "Low Performance USB Block" driver

2012-03-16T20:30:10+00:00

Deprecate this driver. All devices which can be handled by this driver
can also be handled by the usb-storage driver.

usb/storage: a couple defines from drivers/usb/storage/transport.h to include/linux/usb/storage.h

2012-02-28T19:05:18+00:00

This moves the BOT data structures for CBW and CSW from drivers internal
header file to global include able file in include/.
The storage gadget is using the same name for CSW but a different for
CBW so I fix it up properly. The same goes for the ub driver and keucr
driver in staging.

block: add and use scsi_blk_cmd_ioctl

2012-01-14T23:07:24+00:00

Introduce a wrapper around scsi_cmd_ioctl that takes a block device.

The function will then be enhanced to detect partition block devices
and, in that case, subject the ioctls to whitelisting.

block: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for legacy/fringe drivers

2011-04-21T19:33:05+00:00

In-kernel disk event polling doesn't matter for legacy/fringe drivers
and may lead to infinite event loop if ->check_events() implementation
generates events on level condition instead of edge.

Now that block layer supports suppressing exporting unlisted events,
simply leaving disk->events cleared allows these drivers to keep the
internal revalidation behavior intact while avoiding weird
interactions with userland event handler.

ub: Convert to bdops->check_events()

2011-03-09T18:54:28+00:00

Convert from ->media_changed() to ->check_events().

ub buffers media changed state and clears it on revalidation.  It will
behave correctly with kernel event polling.

brought a new use of it.

USB: storage: Use USB_ prefix instead of US_ prefix

This commit changes prefix for some of the USB mass storage
class related macros (ie. USB_SC_ for subclass and USB_PR_
for class).

block: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex

2010-10-05T13:01:10+00:00

The block device drivers have all gained new lock_kernel
calls from a recent pushdown, and some of the drivers
were already using the BKL before.

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

file=$1
name=$2
if grep -q lock_kernel ${file} ; then
    if grep -q 'include.*linux.mutex.h' ${file} ; then
            sed -i '/include.*/d' ${file}
    else
            sed -i 's/include.*.*$/include /g' ${file}
    fi
    sed -i ${file} \
        -e "/^#include.*linux.mutex.h/,$ {
                1,/^\(static\|int\|long\)/ {
                     /^\(static\|int\|long\)/istatic DEFINE_MUTEX(${name}_mutex);

} }"  \

block: push down BKL into .open and .release

2010-08-07T16:25:34+00:00

The open and release block_device_operations are currently
called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must
first make sure that all drivers that currently rely
on this have no regressions.

This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release
operations for all block drivers to prepare for the
next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL
with their own locks or remove it completely when it can
be shown that it is not needed.

The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only
remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block
layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none
of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}.

Most of these two functions is also under the protection
of bdev->bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
->open and ->release, and the common code does not
access any global data structures that need the BKL.
