linux-next: manual merge of the block tree with the vfs tree

2021-01-26 Thread Stephen Rothwell
Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the block tree got a conflict in:

  Documentation/filesystems/porting.rst

between commit:

  14e43bf43561 ("vfs: don't unnecessarily clone write access for writable fds")

from the vfs tree and commits:

  9b2e0016d04c ("bvec/iter: disallow zero-length segment bvecs")
  c42bca92be92 ("bio: don't copy bvec for direct IO")

from the block tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.

This is exactly why I hesitated doing it, I knew it would end up
with conflicts. The main reason was to get rid of the inconsistency,
since we had a fair mix of octal and symbolic names.

Meh.  Do we really need these switch to octal patches to start
with?  I mean, I personally prefer octal, but just switching around
in random code that isn't otherwise changed creates nothing but churn.

linux-next: manual merge of the block tree with the vfs tree

See my "[RFC] split struct kiocb" series to sort out that mess.  For
now none of the callers relies on the iov_iter being advances, so until
then we can simply ignore that problem until then.

They are very similar, and yes thet should be moved to iter version of
the methods.  I actually started that but then ran into problems with
the aio core that needed addressing first.

FWIW, there's an interesting question about the second commit in there -
what do we want vfs_iter_{read,write}() to do with *iter in case if it
has hit this:
if (ret == -EIOCBQUEUED)
ret = wait_on_sync_kiocb(&kiocb);

Do we require ->read_iter() and ->write_iter() on sync kiocb to do all
advancing the iter before returning -EIOCBQUEUED?  What's more, do we
ever want to have it returned on sync kiocb?  IOW, is there any point
in having that wait in callers?

Note that there are _very_ few drivers that ever do that; fs/direct_io.c,
for example, will wait for completion in case of sync kiocb.  AFAICS,
there are exactly two drivers like that: drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/inode.c
and drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_fs.c.  And the latter is very easy to
convert to "waits in case of sync kiocb" - there already are two codepaths
({read,write} and aio_{read,write}) and it's trivial to teach the sync
path to deal with arbitrary iov_iter, with aio side of things doing the
sync variant in case of sync kiocb.  Cheaper, as well, since we don't need
to copy iovec, etc.

I'm not sure if ep_io() and ep_aio_rwtail() + wait for completion are
eqiuvalent; ep_read/ep_write are very easy to turn into sync side of
->read_iter/->write_iter and if that's equivalent to ep_aio_read/ep_aio_write
on sync kiocb + waiting for completion, we are fine.

Comments?

Done.  The first two are in #iov_iter now (merged into #for-next), the
rest is dropped.  And #iov_iter is in never-rebased mode, so feel free
to pull it wherever you need it.

It might make sense to just keep the VFS patches in your tree.
The target ones also are something I'd prefer if it goes through Nic
with additional review.  In addition they aren't really critical,
so if you merge the prep patches now we can feed the rest through
the proper trees in the .21 merge window.

I don't mind opening a never-rebased branch for generic iov_iter-related stuff;
if you prefer to handle it that way - just tell.  The first two patches
from that series would definitely go there; as for the rest... no preferences
here.

Why isn't the loop patch in the block tree? That'd avoid such incidents. 
We could add a dependency for the required VFS patch.

linux-next: manual merge of the block tree with the vfs tree

2015-01-26 Thread Stephen Rothwell
Hi Jens,

Today's linux-next merge of the block tree got a conflict in
drivers/block/loop.c between commit c2ca80413553 ("loop: convert to
vfs_iter_read/write") from the vfs tree and commit b5dd2f6047ca
("block: loop: improve performance via blk-mq") and several others from
the block tree.

I have no idea how fixed it up so I just used the version of the file
from the block tree (its been there a while).  Please have a chat and
figure out how to combine these two large changes.

linux-next: manual merge of the block tree with the vfs tree

2013-04-03 Thread Stephen Rothwell
Hi Jens,

Today's linux-next merge of the block tree got a conflict in
drivers/block/drbd/drbd_proc.c between commit 4dfac87dca02 ("procfs: new
helper - PDE_DATA(inode)") from the vfs tree and commit 193d01532a73
("drbd: add module_put() on error path in drbd_proc_open()") from the
block tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action
is required).
