e138b4e08e swim: clean up request completion paths
swim curiously tries to update request parameters before calling

467ca759fc swim3: clean up request completion paths
swim3 curiously tries to update request parameters before calling
__blk_end_request() when __blk_end_request() will do it anyway, and it
updates request for partial completion manually instead of using
blk_update_request().  Also, it does some spurious checks on rq such
as testing whether rq->sector is negative or current_nr_sectors is
zero right after fetching.

Drop unnecessary stuff and use standard block layer mechanisms.

e091eb67af hd: clean up request completion paths
hd read/write_intr() functions manually manipulate request to
incrementally complete it, which block layer already supports.  Simply
use block layer completion routines instead of manual partial
completion.

While at it, clear unnecessary elv_next_request() check at the tail of
read_intr().  This also makes read and write_intr() more consistent.

We currently don't do merging on discard requests, but we potentially
could. If we do, then we need to include discard requests in the IO

f06d9a2b52 block: replace end_request() with [__]blk_end_request_cur()
end_request() has been kept around for backward compatibility;
however, it's about time for it to go away.

* There aren't too many users left.

* Its use of @updtodate is pretty confusing.

* In some cases, newer code ends up using mixture of end_request() and
  [__]blk_end_request[_all](), which is way too confusing.

So, add [__]blk_end_request_cur() and replace end_request() with it.
Most conversions are straightforward.  Noteworthy ones are...

* paride/pcd: next_request() updated to take 0/-errno instead of 1/0.

* paride/pf: pf_end_request() and next_request() updated to take
  0/-errno instead of 1/0.

* xd: xd_readwrite() updated to return 0/-errno instead of 1/0.

* mtd/mtd_blkdevs: blktrans_discard_request() updated to return
  0/-errno instead of 1/0.  Unnecessary local variable res
  initialization removed from mtd_blktrans_thread().

40cbbb781d block: implement and use [__]blk_end_request_all()
There are many [__]blk_end_request() call sites which call it with
full request length and expect full completion.  Many of them ensure
that the request actually completes by doing BUG_ON() the return
value, which is awkward and error-prone.

This patch adds [__]blk_end_request_all() which takes @rq and @error
and fully completes the request.  BUG_ON() is added to to ensure that
this actually happens.

Most conversions are simple but there are a few noteworthy ones.

* cdrom/viocd: viocd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to
  __blk_end_request_all().

* s390/block/dasd: dasd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to
  __blk_end_request_all().

* s390/char/tape_block: tapeblock_end_request() replaced with direct
  calls to blk_end_request_all().

b243ddcbe9 block: move rq->start_time initialization to blk_rq_init()
rq->start_time was initialized in init_request_from_bio() so special
requests didn't have start_time set.  This has been okay as start_time
has been used only for fs requests; however, there is no indication of
this actually is the case or not.  Set rq->start_time in blk_rq_init()
and guarantee that all initialized rq's have its start_time set.  This
improves consistency at virtually no cost and future changes will make
use of the timestamp for !bio requests.

2e60e02297 block: clean up request completion API
Request completion has gone through several changes and became a bit
messy over the time.  Clean it up.

1. end_that_request_data() is a thin wrapper around
   end_that_request_data_first() which checks whether bio is NULL
   before doing anything and handles bidi completion.
   blk_update_request() is a thin wrapper around
   end_that_request_data() which clears nr_sectors on the last
   iteration but doesn't use the bidi completion.

   Clean it up by moving the initial bio NULL check and nr_sectors
   clearing on the last iteration into end_that_request_data() and
   renaming it to blk_update_request(), which makes blk_end_io() the
   only user of end_that_request_data().  Collapse
   end_that_request_data() into blk_end_io().

2. There are four visible completion variants - blk_end_request(),
   __blk_end_request(), blk_end_bidi_request() and end_request().
   blk_end_request() and blk_end_bidi_request() uses blk_end_request()
   as the backend but __blk_end_request() and end_request() use
   separate implementation in __blk_end_request() due to different
   locking rules.

   blk_end_bidi_request() is identical to blk_end_io().  Collapse
   blk_end_io() into blk_end_bidi_request(), separate out request
   update into internal helper blk_update_bidi_request() and add
   __blk_end_bidi_request().  Redefine [__]blk_end_request() as thin
   inline wrappers around [__]blk_end_bidi_request().

3. As the whole request issue/completion usages are about to be
   modified and audited, it's a good chance to convert completion
   functions return bool which better indicates the intended meaning
   of return values.

4. The function name end_that_request_last() is from the days when it
   was a public interface and slighly confusing.  Give it a proper
   internal name - blk_finish_request().

5. Add description explaning that blk_end_bidi_request() can be safely
   used for uni requests as suggested by Boaz Harrosh.

The only visible behavior change is from #1.  nr_sectors counts are
cleared after the final iteration no matter which function is used to
complete the request.  I couldn't find any place where the code
assumes those nr_sectors counters contain the values for the last
segment and this change is good as it makes the API much more
consistent as the end result is now same whether a request is
completed using [__]blk_end_request() alone or in combination with
blk_update_request().

API further cleaned up per Christoph's suggestion.

e998f30b45 ide-tape: use standard data transfer mechanism
Impact: use standard way to transfer data

ide-tape uses rq in an interesting way.  For r/w requests, rq->special
is used to carry a private buffer management structure idetape_bh and
rq->nr_sectors and current_nr_sectors are initialized to the number of
idetape blocks which isn't necessary 512 bytes.  Also,
rq->current_nr_sectors is used to report back the residual count in
units of idetape blocks.

This peculiarity taxes both block layer and ide.  ide-atapi has
different paths and hooks to accomodate it and what a rq means becomes
quite confusing and making changes at the block layer becomes quite
difficult and error-prone.

This patch makes ide-tape use bio instead.  With the previous patch,
ide-tape currently is using single contiguos buffer so replacing it
isn't difficult.  Data buffer is mapped into bio using
blk_rq_map_kern() in idetape_queue_rw_tail().  idetape_io_buffers()
and idetape_update_buffers() are dropped and pc->bh is set to null to
tell ide-atapi to use standard data transfer mechanism and idetape_bh
byte counts are updated by the issuer on completion using the residual
count.

This change also nicely removes the FIXME in ide_pc_intr() where
ide-tape rqs need to be completed using ide_rq_bytes() instead of
blk_rq_bytes() (although this didn't really matter as the request
didn't have bio).

7b13354eea ide-tape: use single continuous buffer
Impact: simpler buffer allocation and handling, kills OOM, fix DMA transfers

ide-tape has its own multiple buffer mechanism using struct
idetape_bh.  It allocates buffer with decreasing order-of-two
allocations so that it results in minimum number of segments.
However, the implementation is quite complex and works in a way that
no other block or ide driver works necessitating a lot of special case
handling.

The benefit this complex allocation scheme brings is questionable as
PIO or DMA the number of segments (16 maximum) doesn't make any
noticeable difference and it also doesn't negate the need for multiple
order allocation which can fail under memory pressure or high
fragmentation although it does lower the highest order necessary by
one when the buffer size isn't power of two.

As the first step to remove the custom buffer management, this patch
makes ide-tape allocate single continous buffer.  The maximum order is
four.  I doubt the change would cause any trouble but if it ever
matters, it should be converted to regular sg mechanism like everyone
else and even in that case dropping custom buffer handling and moving
to standard mechanism first make sense as an intermediate step.

This patch makes the first bh to contain the whole buffer and drops
multi bh handling code.  Following patches will make further changes.

This patch has the side effect of killing OOM triggered by allocation
path and fixing DMA transfers.  Previously, bug in alloc path
triggered OOM on command issue and commands were passed to DMA engine
without DMA-mapping all the segments.

eb6a61bb95 ide-atapi,tape,floppy: allow ->pc_callback() to change rq->data_len
Impact: allow residual count implementation in ->pc_callback()

rq->data_len has two duties - carrying the number of input bytes on
issue and carrying residual count back to the issuer on completion.
ide-atapi completion callback ->pc_callback() is the right place to do
this but currently ide-atapi depends on rq->data_len carrying the
original request size after calling ->pc_callback() to complete the pc
request.

This patch makes ide_pc_intr(), ide_tape_issue_pc() and
ide_floppy_issue_pc() cache length to complete before calling
->pc_callback() so that it can modify rq->data_len as necessary.

Note: As using rq->data_len for two purposes can make cases like this
      incorrect in subtle ways, future changes will introduce separate
      field for residual count.

08f370f0a2 ide-tape,floppy: fix failed command completion after request sense
Impact: fix infinite retry loop

After a command failed, ide-tape and floppy inserts REQUEST_SENSE in
front of the failed command and according to the result, sets
pc->retries, flags and errors.  After REQUEST_SENSE is complete, the
failed command is again at the front of the queue and if the verdict
was to terminate the request, the issue functions tries to complete it
directly by calling drive->pc_callback() and returning ide_stopped.

However, drive->pc_callback() doesn't complete a request.  It only
prepares for completion of the request.  As a result, this creates an
infinite loop where the failed request is retried perpetually.

Fix it by actually ending the request by calling ide_complete_rq().

765139ef5f ide-pm: don't abuse rq->data
Impact: cleanup rq->data usage

ide-pm uses rq->data to carry pointer to struct request_pm_state
through request queue and rq->special is used to carray pointer to
local struct ide_cmd, which isn't necessary.  Use rq->special for
request_pm_state instead and use local ide_cmd in
ide_start_power_step().

02e7cf8f84 ide-cd,atapi: use bio for internal commands
Impact: unify request data buffer handling

rq->data is used mostly to pass kernel buffer through request queue
without using bio.  There are only a couple of places which still do
this in kernel and converting to bio isn't difficult.

This patch converts ide-cd and atapi to use bio instead of rq->data
for request sense and internal pc commands.  With previous change to
unify sense request handling, this is relatively easily achieved by
adding blk_rq_map_kern() during sense_rq prep and PC issue.

If blk_rq_map_kern() fails for sense, the error is deferred till sense
issue and aborts the failed command which triggered the sense.  Note
that this is a slim possibility as sense prep is done on each command
issue, so for the above condition to actually trigger, all preps since
the last sense issue till the issue of the request which would require
a sense should fail.

* do_request functions might sleep now.  This should be okay as ide
  request_fn - do_ide_request() - is invoked only from make_request
  and plug work.  Make sure this is the case by adding might_sleep()
  to do_ide_request().

* Functions which access the read sense data before the sense request
  is complete now should access bio_data(sense_rq->bio) as the sense
  buffer might have been copied during blk_rq_map_kern().

* ide-tape updated to map sg.

* cdrom_do_block_pc() now doesn't have to deal with REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC
  special case.  Simplified.

* tp_ops->output/input_data path dropped from ide_pc_intr().

068753203e ide-atapi: convert ide-{floppy,tape} to using preallocated sense buffer
Since we're issuing REQ_TYPE_SENSE now we need to allow those types of
rqs in the ->do_request callbacks. As a future improvement, sense_len
assignment might be unified across all ATAPI devices. Borislav to
check with specs and test.

As a result, get rid of ide_queue_pc_head() and
drive->request_sense_rq.

tj: * Init request sense ide_atapi_pc from sense request.  In the
      longer timer, it would probably better to fold
      ide_create_request_sense_cmd() into its only current user -
      ide_floppy_get_format_progress().

    * ide_retry_pc() no longer takes @disk.

c457ce874a ide-cd: convert to using generic sense request
Preallocate a sense request in the ->do_request method and reinitialize
it only on demand, in case it's been consumed in the IRQ handler path.
The reason for this is that we don't want to be mapping rq to bio in
the IRQ path and introduce all kinds of unnecessary hacks to the block
layer.

tj: * Both user and kernel PC requests expect sense data to be stored
      in separate storage other than drive->sense_data.  Copy sense
      data to rq->sense on completion if rq->sense is not NULL.  This
      fixes bogus sense data on PC requests.

As a result, remove cdrom_queue_request_sense.

e69d800f7e ide: add helpers for preparing sense requests
This is in preparation of removing the queueing of a sense request out
of the IRQ handler path.

Use struct request_sense as a general sense buffer for all ATAPI
devices ide-{floppy,tape,cd}.

tj: * blk_get_request(__GFP_WAIT) can't be called from do_request() as
      it can cause deadlock.  Converted to use inline struct request
      and blk_rq_init().

    * Added xfer / cdb len selection depending on device type.

    * All sense prep logics folded into ide_prep_sense() which never
      fails.

    * hwif->rq clearing and sense_rq used handling moved into
      ide_queue_sense_rq().

    * blk_rq_map_kern() conversion is moved to later patch.

d868ca2430 ide-taskfile: don't abuse rq->buffer
Impact: rq->buffer usage cleanup

ide_raw_taskfile() directly uses rq->buffer to carry pointer to the
data buffer.  This complicates both block interface and ide backend
request handling.  Use blk_rq_map_kern() instead and drop special
handling for REQ_TYPE_ATA_TASKFILE from ide_map_sg().

Note that REQ_RW setting is moved upwards as blk_rq_map_kern() uses it
to initialize bio rw flag.
