due to the fact that another rq was being issued while the driver was

Here's a sample output of that case:

Also, ->postponed_rq used to point to that postponed request. To make
things worse, in certain circumstances the rq it was pointing to got
replaced unterneath it by swiftly reusing the same rq from the mempool
of the block layer practically confusing stuff even more.
However, we don't need to keep a pointer to that rq but simply wait for
DSC to be set first before issuing the follow-up request in the drive's
queue. In order to do that, we make idetape_do_request() first check the
DSC and if not set, we stall the drive queue giving the other device on
that IDE channel a chance.

In commit c3a4d78c58, while introducing
rq->resid_len, the default value of residue count was changed from
full count to zero. The conversion was done under the assumption that
when a request fails residue count wasn't defined. However, Boaz and
James pointed out that this wasn't true and the residue count should
be preserved for failed requests too.
This patchset restores the original behavior by setting rq->resid_len
to blk_rq_bytes(rq) on request start and restoring explicit clearing
in affected drivers. While at it, take advantage of the fact that
rq->resid_len is set to full count where applicable.

rq->data_len served two purposes - the length of data buffer on issue
and the residual count on completion. This duality creates some
headaches.
First of all, block layer and low level drivers can't really determine
what rq->data_len contains while a request is executing. It could be
the total request length or it coulde be anything else one of the
lower layers is using to keep track of residual count. This
complicates things because blk_rq_bytes() and thus
[__]blk_end_request_all() relies on rq->data_len for PC commands.
Drivers which want to report residual count should first cache the
total request length, update rq->data_len and then complete the
request with the cached data length.
Secondly, it makes requests default to reporting full residual count,
ie. reporting that no data transfer occurred. The residual count is
an exception not the norm; however, the driver should clear
rq->data_len to zero to signify the normal cases while leaving it
alone means no data transfer occurred at all. This reverse default
behavior complicates code unnecessarily and renders block PC on some
drivers (ide-tape/floppy) unuseable.
This patch adds rq->resid_len which is used only for residual count.
While at it, remove now unnecessasry blk_rq_bytes() caching in
ide_pc_intr() as rq->data_len is not changed anymore.

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).

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.

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.

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().

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().
Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Since we're issuing REQ_TYPE_SENSE now we need to allow those types of

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

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.
