2009-03-31ide: add ->dma_check methodBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Add (an optional) ->dma_check method for checking if DMA can be used for a given command and fail DMA setup in ide_dma_prepare() if necessary. * Convert alim15x3 and trm290 host drivers to use ->dma_check. * Rename ali15x3_dma_setup() to ali_dma_check() while at it. There should be no functional changes caused by this patch. Acked-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2009-03-31trm290: use custom ->dma_{start,end} to handle trm290_prepare_drive()Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Use custom ->dma_{start,end} methods to handle trm290_prepare_drive() there instead of in ->dma_setup method.

Move ide_destroy_dmatable() call out from ->dma_end method to {ide_pc,cdrom_newpc,ide_dma}_intr(), ide_dma_timeout_retry() and sgiioc4_resetproc(). This causes minor/safe behavior changes w.r.t.: * cmd64x.c::cmd64{8,x}_dma_end() * cs5536.c::cs5536_dma_end() * icside.c::icside_dma_end() * it821x.c::it821x_dma_end() * scc_pata.c::__scc_dma_end() * sl82c105.c::sl82c105_dma_end() * tx4939ide.c::tx4939ide_dma_end() v2: * Fix build for CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA=n (reported by Randy Dunlap).

2009-03-31ide: add ->dma_clear method and remove ->dma_timeout oneBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
All custom ->dma_timeout implementations call the generic one thus it is possible to have only an optional method for resetting DMA engine instead: * Add ->dma_clear method and convert hpt366, pdc202xx_old and sl82c105 host drivers to use it. * Always use ide_dma_timeout() in ide_dma_timeout_retry() and remove ->dma_timeout method. * Make ide_dma_timeout() static.

2009-03-31ide-cd: unify transfer padding in cdrom_newpc_intr()Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* 'thislen' is always <= cmd->nleft for non-fs requests so the transfer padding inside the 'while (thislen > 0)' loop can happen only for fs requests -- then move it out of the loop and unify with the transfer padding for non-fs requests ('thislen' == 'len' for fs requests). * blk_dump_rq_flags() dumps all request flags so it is enough to pass only the function name to it. * Update my Copyrights while at it.

2009-03-31ide-cd: use common completion path for DMA requests in cdrom_newpc_intr()Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Use the following facts: - rq->nr_sectors should now be always equal to (non-zero) rq->hard_nr_sectors for fs requests - REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC requests have never bio attached to them - rq->hard_nr_sectors == 0 for REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC requests - DMA is used only for fs, pc and REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC requests - 'uptodate' is ignored for pc requests ('rc == 0' case) and use the common completion path also for DMA requests.

This patch cleans up some redundancies in the reiserfs tree path code. decrement_bcount() is essentially the same function as brelse(), so we use that instead. decrement_counters_in_path() is exactly the same function as pathrelse(), so we kill that and use pathrelse() instead.

2009-03-30reiserfs: add atomic addition of selinux attributes during inode creationJeff Mahoney
Some time ago, some changes were made to make security inode attributes be atomically written during inode creation. ReiserFS fell behind in this area, but with the reworking of the xattr code, it's now fairly easy to add. The following patch adds the ability for security attributes to be added automatically during inode creation.

2009-03-30reiserfs: use generic readdir for operations across all xattrsJeff Mahoney
The current reiserfs xattr implementation open codes reiserfs_readdir and frees the path before calling the filldir function. Typically, the filldir function is something that modifies the file system, such as a chown or an inode deletion that also require reading of an inode associated with each direntry. Since the file system is modified, the path retained becomes invalid for the next run. In addition, it runs backwards in attempt to minimize activity. This is clearly suboptimal from a code cleanliness perspective as well as performance-wise. This patch implements a generic reiserfs_for_each_xattr that uses the generic readdir and a specific filldir routine that simply populates an array of dentries and then performs a specific operation on them. When all files have been operated on, it then calls the operation on the directory itself. The result is a noticable code reduction and better performance.

2009-03-30reiserfs: journaled xattrsJeff Mahoney
Deadlocks are possible in the xattr code between the journal lock and the xattr sems. This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is twofold: * It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr write operations are initiated inside a transaction. * It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata. I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

2009-03-30reiserfs: use generic xattr handlersJeff Mahoney
Christoph Hellwig had asked me quite some time ago to port the reiserfs xattrs to the generic xattr interface. This patch replaces the reiserfs-specific xattr handling code with the generic struct xattr_handler. However, since reiserfs doesn't split the prefix and name when accessing xattrs, it can't leverage generic_{set,get,list,remove}xattr without needlessly reconstructing the name on the back end. Update 7/26/07: Added missing dput() to deletion path. Update 8/30/07: Added missing mark_inode_dirty when i_mode is used to represent an ACL and no previous ACL existed.

2009-03-30reiserfs: make per-inode xattr locking more fine grainedJeff Mahoney
The per-inode locking can be made more fine-grained to surround just the interaction with the filesystem itself.
