0b07de85a7 allow userspace to modify scsi command filter on per device basis
This patch exports the per-gendisk command filter to user space through
sysfs, so it can be changed by the system administrator.
All users of the old cmd filter have been converted to use the new one.

Original patch from Peter Jones.

7ba1ba12ee block: Block layer data integrity support
Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way
of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along
with the I/O.

This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity
metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and
requests that have this extra information attached.

See Documentation/block/data-integrity.txt for more information.

5228ddc98f tun: TUNSETFEATURES to set gso features.
ethtool is useful for setting (some) device fields, but it's

ioctl.

07240fd090 tun: Interface to query tun/tap features.
The problem with introducing checksum offload and gso to tun is they
need to set dev->features to enable GSO and/or checksumming, which is
supposed to be done before register_netdevice(), ie. as part of
TUNSETIFF.

Unfortunately, TUNSETIFF has always just ignored flags it doesn't
understand, so there's no good way of detecting whether the kernel
supports new IFF_ flags.

This patch implements a TUNGETFEATURES ioctl which returns all the valid IFF
flags.  It could be extended later to include other features.

Here's an example program which uses it:

#include <linux/if_tun.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <err.h>
#include <stdio.h>

static struct {
	unsigned int flag;
	const char *name;
} known_flags[] = {
	{ IFF_TUN, "TUN" },
	{ IFF_TAP, "TAP" },
	{ IFF_NO_PI, "NO_PI" },
	{ IFF_ONE_QUEUE, "ONE_QUEUE" },
};

int main()
{
	unsigned int features, i;

	int netfd = open("/dev/net/tun", O_RDWR);
	if (netfd < 0)
		err(1, "Opening /dev/net/tun");

	if (ioctl(netfd, TUNGETFEATURES, &features) != 0) {
		printf("Kernel does not support TUNGETFEATURES, guessing\n");
		features = (IFF_TUN|IFF_TAP|IFF_NO_PI|IFF_ONE_QUEUE);
	}
	printf("Available features are: ");
	for (i = 0; i < sizeof(known_flags)/sizeof(known_flags[0]); i++) {
		if (features & known_flags[i].flag) {
			features &= ~known_flags[i].flag;
			printf("%s ", known_flags[i].name);
		}
	}
	if (features)
		printf("(UNKNOWN %#x)", features);
	printf("\n");
	return 0;
}

9465efc9e9 Remove BKL from remote_llseek v2
- Replace remote_llseek with generic_file_llseek_unlocked (to force compilation
failures in all users)
- Change all users to either use generic_file_llseek_unlocked directly or
take the BKL around. I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL
for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS
take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now.

I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification
is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who
modify it without BKL.

Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks?

Trond says the NFS BKL is likely not needed, but keep it for now
until his full audit.

v2: Use generic_file_llseek_unlocked instead of remote_llseek_unlocked
    and factor duplicated code (suggested by hch)

18ce3751cc Properly notify block layer of sync writes
fsync_buffers_list() and sync_dirty_buffer() both issue async writes and
then immediately wait on them. Conceptually, that makes them sync writes
and we should treat them as such so that the IO schedulers can handle
them appropriately.

This patch fixes a write starvation issue that Lin Ming reported, where
xx is stuck for more than 2 minutes because of a large number of
synchronous IO in the system:

b5470dc5fc md: resolve external metadata handling deadlock in md_allow_write
md_allow_write() marks the metadata dirty while holding mddev->lock and then
waits for the write to complete.  For externally managed metadata this causes a
deadlock as userspace needs to take the lock to communicate that the metadata
update has completed.

Change md_allow_write() in the 'external' case to start the 'mark active'
operation and then return -EAGAIN.  The expected side effects while waiting for
userspace to write 'active' to 'array_state' are holding off reshape (code
currently handles -ENOMEM), cause some 'stripe_cache_size' change requests to
fail, cause some GET_BITMAP_FILE ioctl requests to fall back to GFP_NOIO, and
cause updates to 'raid_disks' to fail.  Except for 'stripe_cache_size' changes
these failures can be mitigated by coordinating with mdmon.

md_write_start() still prevents writes from occurring until the metadata
handler has had a chance to take action as it unconditionally waits for
MD_CHANGE_CLEAN to be cleared.

818727badc rndis_host: pass buffer length to rndis_command
Pass buffer length to rndis_command so that rndis_command can read full
response buffer from device instead of max CONTROL_BUFFER_SIZE bytes.

251a4b320f net/inet_lro: remove setting skb->ip_summed when not LRO-able
When an SKB cannot be chained to a session, the current code attempts
to "restore" its ip_summed field from lro_mgr->ip_summed. However,
lro_mgr->ip_summed does not hold the original value; in fact, we'd
better not touch skb->ip_summed since it is not modified by the code
in the path leading to a failure to chain it.  Also use a cleaer
comment to the describe the ip_summed field of struct net_lro_mgr.

d8ee0728b5 md: replace R5_WantPrexor with R5_WantDrain, add 'prexor' reconstruct_states
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

Currently ops_run_biodrain and other locations have extra logic to determine
which blocks are processed in the prexor and non-prexor cases.  This can be
eliminated if handle_write_operations5 flags the blocks to be processed in all
cases via R5_Wantdrain.  The presence of the prexor operation is tracked in
sh->reconstruct_state.

600aa10993 md: replace STRIPE_OP_{BIODRAIN,PREXOR,POSTXOR} with 'reconstruct_states'
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

Track the state of reconstruct operations (recalculating the parity block
usually due to incoming writes, or as part of array expansion)  Reduces the
scope of the STRIPE_OP_{BIODRAIN,PREXOR,POSTXOR} flags to only tracking whether
a reconstruct operation has been requested via the ops_request field of struct
stripe_head_state.

This is the final step in the removal of ops.{pending,ack,complete,count}, i.e.
the STRIPE_OP_{BIODRAIN,PREXOR,POSTXOR} flags only request an operation and do
not track the state of the operation.

ecc65c9b3f md: replace STRIPE_OP_CHECK with 'check_states'
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

The STRIPE_OP_* flags record the state of stripe operations which are
performed outside the stripe lock.  Their use in indicating which
operations need to be run is straightforward; however, interpolating what
the next state of the stripe should be based on a given combination of
these flags is not straightforward, and has led to bugs.  An easier to read
implementation with minimal degrees of freedom is needed.

Towards this goal, this patch introduces explicit states to replace what was
previously interpolated from the STRIPE_OP_* flags.  For now this only converts
the handle_parity_checks5 path, removing a user of the
ops.{pending,ack,complete,count} fields of struct stripe_operations.

This conversion also found a remaining issue with the current code.  There is
a small window for a drive to fail between when we schedule a repair and when
the parity calculation for that repair completes.  When this happens we will
writeback to 'failed_num' when we really want to write back to 'pd_idx'.

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

The R5_Want{Read,Write} flags already gate i/o.  So, this flag is
superfluous and we can unconditionally call ops_run_io().

b203886edb md: kill STRIPE_OP_MOD_DMA in raid5 offload
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

This micro-optimization allowed the raid code to skip a re-read of the
parity block after checking parity.  It took advantage of the fact that
xor-offload-engines have their own internal result buffer and can check
parity without writing to memory.  Remove it for the following reasons:

1/ It is a layering violation for MD to need to manage the DMA and
   non-DMA paths within async_xor_zero_sum
2/ Bad precedent to toggle the 'ops' flags outside the lock
3/ Hard to realize a performance gain as reads will not need an updated
   parity block and writes will dirty it anyways.
