[PATCH 01/30] blk_end_request: add new request completioninterface (take 4)

From: Kiyoshi Ueda
Date: Tue Dec 11 2007 - 17:40:52 EST


This patch adds 2 new interfaces for request completion:
o blk_end_request() : called without queue lock
o __blk_end_request() : called with queue lock held

blk_end_request takes 'error' as an argument instead of 'uptodate',
which current end_that_request_* take.
The meanings of values are below and the value is used when bio is
completed.
0 : success
< 0 : error

Some device drivers call some generic functions below between
end_that_request_{first/chunk} and end_that_request_last().
o add_disk_randomness()
o blk_queue_end_tag()
o blkdev_dequeue_request()
These are called in the blk_end_request interfaces as a part of
generic request completion.
So all device drivers become to call above functions.
To decide whether to call blkdev_dequeue_request(), blk_end_request
uses list_empty(&rq->queuelist) (blk_queued_rq() macro is added for it).
So drivers must re-initialize it using list_init() or so before calling
blk_end_request if drivers use it for its specific purpose.
(Currently, there is no driver which completes request without
re-initializing the queuelist after used it. So rq->queuelist
can be used for the purpose above.)

"Normal" drivers can be converted to use blk_end_request()
in a standard way shown below.

a) end_that_request_{chunk/first}
spin_lock_irqsave()
(add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())
end_that_request_last()
spin_unlock_irqrestore()
=> blk_end_request()

b) spin_lock_irqsave()
end_that_request_{chunk/first}
(add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())
end_that_request_last()
spin_unlock_irqrestore()
=> spin_lock_irqsave()
__blk_end_request()
spin_unlock_irqsave()

c) spin_lock_irqsave()
(add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())
end_that_request_last()
spin_unlock_irqrestore()
=> blk_end_request() or spin_lock_irqsave()
__blk_end_request()
spin_unlock_irqrestore()
