2005-11-10[PATCH] ide-floppy: software eject not working with LS-120 driveOndrej Zary1-4/+2
The problem (eject not working on ATAPI LS-120 drive) is caused by idefloppy_ioctl() function which *first* tries generic_ide_ioctl() and *only* if it fails with -EINVAL, proceeds with the specific ioctls. The generic eject command fails with something other than -EINVAL and the specific one is never executed. This patch fixes it by first going through the internal ioctls and only trying generic_ide_ioctl() if none of them matches.

2005-11-10[PATCH] siimage: enable interrupts on Adaptec SA-1210 cardJohn W. Linville1-0/+9
The siimage driver proports to support the Adaptec SA-1210 SATA controller. However, at least some of those cards boot-up with their interrupts disabled internally. The siimage driver currently ignores that fact, so that driver does not actually work with those cards. This patch enables those interrupts on cards that need it.

AGP shouldn't use "global_flush_tlb()" to flush the AGP mappings, that i spurely an x86'ism. The proper AGP mapping flusher that should be used is "flush_agp_mappings()", which on x86 obviously happens to do a global TLB flush. This makes AGP (or at least the config _I_ happen to use) compile again on ppc64. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

"Medium not present" This patch started life as a response to fedora specific ide subsystem changes that made error handling of my ATAPI tape drive fail; the specifics are in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160868 The insertion of the statement rq->errors = err; near the end of ide_end_drive_cmd() in drivers/ide/ide-io.c means that rq->errors does not contain what it needs to in idescsi_end_request() in drivers/scsi/ide-scsi.c anymore.

2005-11-09[PATCH] md: improve 'scan_mode' and rename it to 'sync_action'NeilBrown1-19/+28
The current sync_action for an array can be one of idle - nothing happening resync - reduncancy being recalcualted recover - missing device being recoverred to spare check - user initiated check of redundancy repair - like resync but user-initiated and ignores bitmap optimisation. Each of these strings can also be written to the 'sync_action' file to cause that action to happen (if appropriate). While 'sync' is not technically correct, as a recovery is *not* a 'sync', I think it is the most servicable word here. Also 'action' is a strong word than 'mode'.

Some attributes apply specifically to functions involving this redundancy, and so should only appear for md arrays for which they are meaningful. i.e. they should not appear for raid0, linear, multpath, faulty.

This also involves some name changes of _show routines. 2/ Always lock the mddev (against reconfiguration) for all sysfs attribute access. This easily avoid certain races and is completely consistant with other interfaces (ioctl and /proc/mdstat both always lock against reconfiguration). 3/ raid5 attributes must check that the 'conf' structure actually exists (the array could have been stopped while an attribute file was open). 4/ A missing 'kfree' from when the raid5_conf_t was converted to have a kobject embedded, and then converted back again.

2005-11-09[PATCH] md: allow md arrays to be started read-only (module parameter).NeilBrown1-8/+51
When an md array is started, the superblock will be written, and resync may commense. This is not good if you want to be completely read-only as, for example, when preparing to resume from a suspend-to-disk image. So introduce a module parameter "start_ro" which can be set to '1' at boot, at module load, or via /sys/module/md_mod/parameters/start_ro When this is set, new arrays get an 'auto-ro' mode, which disables all internal io (superblock updates, resync, recovery) and is automatically switched to 'rw' when the first write request arrives. The array can be set to true 'ro' mode using 'mdadm -r' before the first write request, or resync can be started without a write using 'mdadm -w'.

2005-11-09[PATCH] md: Remove attempt to use dynamic names in sysfs for component ↵NeilBrown1-34/+6
devices on an MD array. With version-0.90 superblock, component devices on an md device to not have any stable name related to the array -(version-1 assigns a fixed index when a device is added to an array, and this remains despit any hot-swap). The intial code for making these devices appear in sysfs used dynamic names, which would change whenever a hot-spare was swapped for a failed or missing device. This turns out not to be practical in sysfs for a number of reasons. This patch changes then naming of component devices to be based on the result of 'bdevname'. This is stable and should be unique.

2005-11-09[PATCH] md: support BIO_RW_BARRIER for md/raid1NeilBrown3-61/+177
We can only accept BARRIER requests if all slaves handle barriers, and that can, of course, change with time.... So we keep track of whether the whole array seems safe for barriers, and also whether each individual rdev handles barriers. We initially assumes barriers are OK. When writing the superblock we try a barrier, and if that fails, we flag things for no-barriers. This will usually clear the flags fairly quickly. If writing the superblock finds that BIO_RW_BARRIER is -ENOTSUPP, we need to resubmit, so introduce function "md_super_wait" which waits for requests to finish, and retries ENOTSUPP requests without the barrier flag. When writing the real raid1, write requests which were BIO_RW_BARRIER but which aresn't supported need to be retried. So raid1d is enhanced to do this, and when any bio write completes (i.e. no retry needed) we remove it from the r1bio, so that devices needing retry are easy to find. We should hardly ever get -ENOTSUPP errors when writing data to the raid. It should only happen if: 1/ the device used to support BARRIER, but now doesn't. Few devices change like this, though raid1 can! or 2/ the array has no persistent superblock, so there was no opportunity to pre-test for barriers when writing the superblock.

Currently there is only 'state' which summarises the state, nd 'super' which has a copy of the superblock, and 'block' which is a symlink to the block device. Also, /sys/block/mdX/md/rdNN represents slot 'NN' in the array, and is a symlink to the relevant 'devNN'. Obviously spare devices do not have a slot in the array, and so don't have such a symlink.

2005-11-09[PATCH] md: better handling of readerrors with raid5.NeilBrown1-5/+56
This patch changes the behaviour of raid5 when it gets a read error. Instead of just failing the device, it tried to find out what should have been there, and writes it over the bad block. For some media-errors, this has a reasonable chance of fixing the error. If the write succeeds, and a subsequent read succeeds as well, raid5 decided the address is OK and conitnues. Instead of failing a drive on read-error, we attempt to re-write the block, and then re-read. If that all works, we allow the device to remain in the array.

Add ability to set rotation via sysfs. The attributes are located in /sys/class/graphics/fb[n] and accepts 0 - unrotated; 1 - clockwise; 2 - upside down; 3 - counterclockwise. The attributes are: con_rotate (r/w) - set rotation of the active console con_rotate_all (w) - set rotation of all consoles rotate (r/w) - set rotation of the framebuffer, if supported. Currently, none of the drivers support this. This is probably temporary, since con_rotate and con_rotate_all are console-specific and has no business being under the fb device. However, until the console layer acquires it's own sysfs class, these attributes will temporarily reside here.
