2008-01-28blktrace: Add blktrace ioctls to SCSI generic devicesChristof Schmitt1-10/+14
Since the SCSI layer uses the request queues from the block layer, blktrace can 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 - Signed-off-by: Christof Schmitt <christof.schmitt@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2008-01-11block: fix blktrace timestampsIngo Molnar1-67/+2
David Dillow reported broken blktrace timestamps. The reason is cpu_clock() which is not a global time source. Fix bkltrace timestamps by using ktime_get() like the networking code does for packet timestamps. This also removes a whole lot of complexity from bkltrace.c and shrinks the code by 500 bytes: text data bss dec hex filename 2888 124 44 3056 bf0 blktrace.o.before 2390 116 44 2550 9f6 blktrace.o.after Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-11-27blktrace: Make sure BLKTRACETEARDOWN does the full cleanup.Aneesh Kumar K.V1-2/+7
if blktrace program segfault it will not be able to call BLKTRACETEARDOWN. Now if we run the blktrace again that would result in a failure to create the block/<device> debugfs directory.This will result in blk_remove_root() to be called which will set blk_tree_root to NULL. But the debugfs block dir still exist because it contain subdirectory. Now if we try to fix it using BLKTRACETEARDOWN it won't work because blk_tree_root is NULL. Fix the same.

2007-10-16Convert cpu_sibling_map to be a per cpu variableMike Travis1-1/+1
Convert cpu_sibling_map from a static array sized by NR_CPUS to a per_cpu variable. This saves sizeof(cpumask_t) * NR unused cpus. Access is mostly from startup and CPU HOTPLUG functions.

2007-07-24[BLOCK] Get rid of request_queue_t typedefJens Axboe1-5/+5
Some of the code has been gradually transitioned to using the proper struct request_queue, but there's lots left. So do a full sweet of the kernel and get rid of this typedef and replace its uses with the proper type. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-02-12[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 3Arjan van de Ven1-1/+1
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2007-02-11[PATCH] Relay: add CPU hotplug supportMathieu Desnoyers1-2/+1
Mathieu originally needed to add this for tracing Xen, but it's something that's needed for any application that can be tracing while cpus are added. unplug isn't supported by this patch. The thought was that at minumum a new buffer needs to be added when a cpu comes up, but it wasn't worth the effort to remove buffers on cpu down since they'd be freed soon anyway when the channel was closed.

2006-12-07[PATCH] Allow NULL pointers in percpu_freeAlan Stern1-2/+1
The patch (as824b) makes percpu_free() ignore NULL arguments, as one would expect for a deallocation routine. (Note that free_percpu is #defined as percpu_free in include/linux/percpu.h.) A few callers are updated to remove now-unneeded tests for NULL. A few other callers already seem to assume that passing a NULL pointer to percpu_free() is okay! The patch also removes an unnecessary NULL check in percpu_depopulate().

2006-12-01[PATCH] blktrace: add timestamp messageOlaf Kirch1-12/+45
This adds a new timestamp message to blktrace, giving the timeofday when we starting tracing. This helps user space correlate block trace events with eg an application strace. This requires a (compatible) update to blkparse. The changed blkparse is still able to process traces generated by older kernels, and older versions of blkparse should silently ignore the new records (because they have a pid of 0).

2006-09-27[PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_privateTheodore Ts'o1-1/+1
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode (i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat in the VFS inode structure). This patch: The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union, which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where the union will actually be used.
