a0f62ac636 [PATCH] 2TB files: add blkcnt_t
Add blkcnt_t as the type of inode.i_blocks.  This enables you to make the size
of blkcnt_t either 4 bytes or 8 bytes on 32 bits architecture with CONFIG_LSF.

- CONFIG_LSF
  Add new configuration parameter.
- blkcnt_t
  On h8300, i386, mips, powerpc, s390 and sh that define sector_t,
  blkcnt_t is defined as u64 if CONFIG_LSF is enabled; otherwise it is
  defined as unsigned long.
  On other architectures, it is defined as unsigned long.
- inode.i_blocks
  Change the type from sector_t to blkcnt_t.

7b14e3b52f [PATCH] cfq-iosched: slice expiry fixups
During testing of SLES10, we encountered a hang in the CFQ io scheduler.
Turns out the deferred slice expiry logic is buggy, so remove that for
now.  We could be left with an idle queue that would never wake up.  So
kill that logic, always expire immediately.  Also fix a potential timer
race condition.

30e9656cc3 [PATCH] block: implement elv_insert and use it (fix ordcolor flipping bug)
q->ordcolor must only be flipped on initial queueing of a hardbarrier
request.

Constructing ordered sequence and requeueing used to pass through
__elv_add_request() which flips q->ordcolor when it sees a barrier
request.

This patch separates out elv_insert() from __elv_add_request() and uses
elv_insert() when constructing ordered sequence and requeueing.
elv_insert() inserts the given request at the specified position and
does nothing else.

88a2a4ac6b [PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUs
percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of
cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus.

As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS
loops to use for_each_cpu().

(The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h.  powerpc has gone it
alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's
currently corrupting memory).

248d5ca5ed [BLOCK] elevator: allow default scheduler to potentially be modular
Jens has decided that allowing the default scheduler to be a module is
a bug, and should not be allowed under kconfig.  However, I find that
scenario useful for debugging, and wish for the kernel to be able to
handle this situation without OOPSing, if I enable such an option in
the .config directly.  This patch dynamically checks for the presence
of the compiled-in default, and falls back to no-op, emitting a
suitable error message, when the default is not available

Tested for a range of boot options on 2.6.16-rc1-mm2.

5f00397644 [BLOCK] elevator: default choice selection
My previous default iosched patch did a poor job dealing with the
'elevator=' boot-time option.  The old behavior falls back to the
compiled-in default if the requested one is not registered at boot
time.  This patch dynamically evaluates which default
to use, and emits a suitable error message when the requested scheduler
is not available.  It also does the 'as' -> 'anticipatory' conversion
before elevator registration, which along with a modified registration
function, allows it to correctly indicate which default scheduler is
in use.

Tested for a range of boot options on 2.6.16-rc1-mm2.

1bc691d357 [PATCH] fix queue stalling while barrier sequencing
If ordered tag isn't supported, request ordering for barrier
sequencing is performed by queue draining, which basically hangs the
request queue until elv_completed_request() reports completion of all
previous fs requests.

The condition check in elv_completed_request() was only performed for
fs requests.  If a special request is queued between the last
to-be-drained request and the barrier sequence, draining is never
completed and the queue is stalled forever.

This patch moves the end-of-draining condition check such that it's
performed for all requests.

a885c8c431 [PATCH] Add block_device_operations.getgeo block device method
HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to
duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting
the start sector.  This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a
->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure.  For many
drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now.

[1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect.  xpram sets ->start
    to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts
    the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard
    sector size.
