Pull core block IO changes from Jens Axboe:
"The major piece in here is the immutable bio_ve series from Kent, the
rest is fairly minor. It was supposed to go in last round, but
various issues pushed it to this release instead. The pull request
contains:
- Various smaller blk-mq fixes from different folks. Nothing major
here, just minor fixes and cleanups.
- Fix for a memory leak in the error path in the block ioctl code
from Christian Engelmayer.
- Header export fix from CaiZhiyong.
- Finally the immutable biovec changes from Kent Overstreet. This
enables some nice future work on making arbitrarily sized bios
possible, and splitting more efficient. Related fixes to immutable
bio_vecs:
- dm-cache immutable fixup from Mike Snitzer.
- btrfs immutable fixup from Muthu Kumar.
- bio-integrity fix from Nic Bellinger, which is also going to stable"

During parsing of the sizes array the pointer to the particular
string is lost. Keep it by using an extra pointer to store the end
position of the parsed string. Keeping these parameters accessible
can be helpful for debugging purposes and for userspace reading
the parameters at runtime via sysfs. Also this will ensure that the
memory is freed at module unload time.

An I/O request that does not read or write full blocks cannot be
translated into a correct CCW or TCW program and should be rejected
right away. In particular the code that creates TCW requests will not
notice this problem and create broken TCWs that will be rejected by

Stop hiding scm_block's dependency to the eadm subchannel driver
(by using functions provided by the eadm subchannel instead of
wrappers provided by the scm bus).
This will help userspace recognizing module dependencies (e.g. for
building a ramdisk). As a side effect we can get rid of some code
reimplementing refcounting between those modules.

again after the immutable series was pulled. This also means that
bcache gets to sit the initial pull over. I will send a second driver

The ECKD protocol supports reading of tracks with arbitrary format as
raw track images. The DASD device driver supports this in its
raw_track_access mode. In this mode it maps each track to sixteen 4096
byte sectors and rejects all requests that are not properly aligned to
this mapping.
An application that wants to use a DASD in raw_track_access mode will
usually use direct I/O to make sure that properly aligned requests are
directly submitted to the driver. However, applications that are not
aware of this mode, e.g. udev, will encounter I/O errors.
To make the use without direct I/O possible and avoid this kind of
alignment errors, we now pad unaligned read requests with a dummy
page, so that we can always read full tracks. Please note that
writing is still only possible for full track images that are properly
aligned.

Whenever a DASD request encounters a timeout we might
need to abort all outstanding requests on this or
even other devices.
This is especially useful if one wants to fail all
devices on one side of a RAID10 configuration, even
though only one device exhibited an error.
To handle this I've introduced a new device flag
DASD_FLAG_ABORTIO.
This flag is evaluated in __dasd_process_request_queue()
and will invoke blk_abort_request() for all
outstanding requests with DASD_CQR_FLAGS_FAILFAST set.
This will cause any of these requests to be aborted
immediately if the blk_timeout function is activated.
The DASD_FLAG_ABORTIO is also evaluated in
__dasd_process_request_queue to abort all
new request which would have the
DASD_CQR_FLAGS_FAILFAST bit set.
The flag can be set with the new ioctls 'BIODASDABORTIO'
and removed with 'BIODASDALLOWIO'.

Originally the DASD device tasklet would process the entries on
the ccw_queue until the first non-final request was found.
Which was okay as long as all requests have the same retries and
expires parameter.
However, as we're now allowing to modify both it is possible to
have requests _after_ the first request which already have expired.
So we need to check all requests in the device tasklet.

When a path is gone and dasd_generic_path_event is called with a
PE_PATH_GONE event, we must assume that any I/O request on that
subchannel is still running. This is unlike the dasd_generic_notify
handler and the CIO_NO_PATH event, which implies that the subchannel
has been cleared.
If dasd_generic_path_event finds that the path has been the last
usable path, it must not call dasd_generic_last_path_gone (which would
reset the state of running requests), but just set the
DASD_STOPPED_DC_WAIT bit.

This is the pull request for the earlier patchset[1] with the same
name. It's only three patches (the first one was committed to
workqueue tree) but the merge strategy is a bit involved due to the
dependencies.
* Because the conversion needs features from wq/for-3.10,
block/for-3.10/core is based on rc3, and wq/for-3.10 has conflicts
with rc3, I pulled mainline (rc5) into wq/for-3.10 to prevent those
workqueue conflicts from flaring up in block tree.
* Resolving the issue that Jan and Dave raised about debugging
requires arch-wide changes. The patchset is being worked on[2] but
it'll have to go through -mm after these changes show up in -next,
and not included in this pull request.
The three commits are located in the following git branch.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git writeback-workqueue
Pulling it into block/for-3.10/core produces a conflict in
drivers/md/raid5.c between the following two commits.
e3620a3ad5 ("MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available")
2f6db2a707 ("raid5: use bio_reset()")
The conflict is trivial - one removes an "if ()" conditional while the
other removes "rbi->bi_next = NULL" right above it. We just need to
remove both. The merged branch is available at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git block-test-merge
so that you can use it for verification. The test merge commit has
proper merge description.
While these changes are a bit of pain to route, they make code simpler
and even have, while minute, measureable performance gain[3] even on a
workload which isn't particularly favorable to showing the benefits of
this conversion.

Stop writing to scm after certain error conditions such as a concurrent
firmware upgrade. Resume to normal state once scm_blk_set_available is
called (due to an scm availability notification).

If a block device driver cannot fetch all requests from the blocklayer
it's in his responsibility to call the request function at a later time.
Normally this would be done after the next irq for the underlying device
is handled. However in situations where we have no outstanding request
we have to schedule the request function for a later time.
This is determined using an internal counter of requests issued to the
hardware.
In some cases where we give a request back to the block layer unhandled
the number of queued requests was not adjusted. Fix this class of
failures by adjusting queued_requests in all functions used to give
a request back to the block layer.

When the DASD devices are detached from the driver, then the
dasd_generic_remove function is called. One of the things this
function should do is to remove the DASD specific sysfs attributes,
but this is not done in all cases. This is likely to cause an oops
when at a later point sysfs stumbles over the stale pointers. In
particular this happens when when the modules are unloaded and loaded
again.
