233e70f422 saner FASYNC handling on file close
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

fad7f01e61 sg: set dxferp to NULL for READ with the older SG interface
With the older SG interface, we don't know a user-space address to
trasfer data when executing a SCSI command. So we can't pass a
user-space address to blk_rq_map_user.

This patch fixes sg to pass a NULL user-space address to
blk_rq_map_user so that it just sets up a request and bios with page
frames propely without data transfer.

abf5439370 block: move cmdfilter from gendisk to request_queue
cmd_filter works only for the block layer SG_IO with SCSI block
devices. It breaks scsi/sg.c, bsg, and the block layer SG_IO with SCSI
character devices (such as st). We hit a kernel crash with them.

The problem is that cmd_filter code accesses to gendisk (having struct
blk_scsi_cmd_filter) via inode->i_bdev->bd_disk. It works for only
SCSI block device files. With character device files, inode->i_bdev
leads you to struct cdev. inode->i_bdev->bd_disk->blk_scsi_cmd_filter
isn't safe.

SCSI ULDs don't expose gendisk; they keep it private. bsg needs to be
independent on any protocols. We shouldn't change ULDs to expose their
gendisk.

This patch moves struct blk_scsi_cmd_filter from gendisk to
request_queue, a common object, which eveyone can access to.

The user interface doesn't change; users can change the filters via
/sys/block/. gendisk has a pointer to request_queue so the cmd_filter
code accesses to struct blk_scsi_cmd_filter.

24b42566c3 SCSI: fix race in device_create
There is a race from when a device is created with device_create() and
then the drvdata is set with a call to dev_set_drvdata() in which a
sysfs file could be open, yet the drvdata will be NULL, causing all
sorts of bad things to happen.

This patch fixes the problem by using the new function,
device_create_drvdata().  It fixes the problem in all of the scsi
drivers that need it.

also be used to trace the requests to all SCSI devices (like SCSI tape drives),
not only disks. The only missing part is the ioctl interface to start and stop
tracing.

This patch adds the SETUP, START, STOP and TEARDOWN ioctls from blktrace to the
sg device files. With this change, blktrace can be used for SCSI devices like
for disks, e.g.: blktrace -d /dev/sg1 -o - | blkparse -i -

7c07d613d2 [SCSI] sg: use idr to replace static arrays
sg uses a scheme to reallocate a single contiguous array of all its
pointers for lookup and management.  This didn't matter too much when sg
could only attach 256 nodes, but now the maximum has been bumped up to
32k we're starting to push the limits of the maximum allocatable
contiguous memory.  The solution to this is to eliminate the static
array and do everything via idr, which this patch does.

44ec95425c [SCSI] sg: cap reserved_size values at max_sectors
This patch (as857) modifies the SG_GET_RESERVED_SIZE and
SG_SET_RESERVED_SIZE ioctls in the sg driver, capping the values at
the device's request_queue's max_sectors value.  This will permit
cdrecord to obtain a legal value for the maximum transfer length,
fixing Bugzilla #7026.

The patch also caps the initial reserved_size value.  There's no
reason to have a reserved buffer larger than max_sectors, since it
would be impossible to use the extra space.

The corresponding ioctls in the block layer are modified similarly,
and the initial value for the reserved_size is set as large as
possible.  This will effectively make it default to max_sectors.
Note that the actual value is meaningless anyway, since block devices
don't have a reserved buffer.

Finally, the BLKSECTGET ioctl is added to sg, so that there will be a
uniform way for users to determine the actual max_sectors value for
any raw SCSI transport.

7ca63cb470 [SCSI] sg: fix incorrect last scatg length
For certain LLDs the sg driver can cause on oops
when the transfer length is large and not a
multiple of PAGE_SIZE.

  ChangeLog:
    - correct the length of the last scatter gather
      list element.
    - fix some printk()s that have the wrong function
      name.

6460e75a10 [SCSI] sg: fixes for large page_size
This sg driver patch addresses the problem with larger
page sizes reported by Brian King in this post:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115867718623631&w=2
Some other related matters are also addressed. Some of these
prevent oopses when the SG_SCATTER_SZ or scatter_elem_sz are
set to inappropriate values.

The scatter_elem_sz has been tested up to 4 MB which should
make the largest data transfer with one SCSI command, 32 MB
less one block, achievable with a relatively small number
of elements in the scatter gather list.

ChangeLog:
    - add scatter_elem_sz boot time parameter and sysfs module
      parameter that is initialized to SG_SCATTER_SZ
    - the driver will then adjust scatter_elem_sz to be the
      max(given(scatter_elem_sz), PAGE_SIZE)
      It will also round it up, if necessary, to be a power
      of two
    - clean up sg.h header, correct bad urls and some statements
      that are no longer valid
    - make the def_reserved_size sysfs module attribute writable

b2155d0417 [SCSI] sg: fix incorrect page problem
There's a problem where sg is executing a ->nopage operation on a
compound page, it actually calls get_page() on the first page in the
compound rather than the page which is being mapped.  The fix is to
select the correct page by indexing into the compound.

454e8957eb [SCSI] sg.c: Fix bad error handling in
I got a NULL derefrence in cdev_del+1 when called from sg_remove. By looking at
the code of sg_add, sg_alloc and sg_remove (all in drivers/scsi/sg.c) I found
out that sg_add is calling sg_alloc but if it fails afterwards it does not
deallocate the space that was allocated in sg_alloc and the redundant entry has
NULL in cdev. When sg_remove is being called, it tries to perform cdev_del to
this NULL cdev and fails.
