From: Mike Snitzer Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2018 03:01:13 +0000 (-0500) Subject: block: allow gendisk's request_queue registration to be deferred X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fa70d2e2c4a0a54ced98260c6a176cc94c876d27;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git block: allow gendisk's request_queue registration to be deferred Since I can remember DM has forced the block layer to allow the allocation and initialization of the request_queue to be distinct operations. Reason for this is block/genhd.c:add_disk() has requires that the request_queue (and associated bdi) be tied to the gendisk before add_disk() is called -- because add_disk() also deals with exposing the request_queue via blk_register_queue(). DM's dynamic creation of arbitrary device types (and associated request_queue types) requires the DM device's gendisk be available so that DM table loads can establish a master/slave relationship with subordinate devices that are referenced by loaded DM tables -- using bd_link_disk_holder(). But until these DM tables, and their associated subordinate devices, are known DM cannot know what type of request_queue it needs -- nor what its queue_limits should be. This chicken and egg scenario has created all manner of problems for DM and, at times, the block layer. Summary of changes: - Add device_add_disk_no_queue_reg() and add_disk_no_queue_reg() variant that drivers may use to add a disk without also calling blk_register_queue(). Driver must call blk_register_queue() once its request_queue is fully initialized. - Return early from blk_unregister_queue() if QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED is not set. It won't be set if driver used add_disk_no_queue_reg() but driver encounters an error and must del_gendisk() before calling blk_register_queue(). - Export blk_register_queue(). These changes allow DM to use add_disk_no_queue_reg() to anchor its gendisk as the "master" for master/slave relationships DM must establish with subordinate devices referenced in DM tables that get loaded. Once all "slave" devices for a DM device are known its request_queue can be properly initialized and then advertised via sysfs -- important improvement being that no request_queue resource initialization performed by blk_register_queue() is missed for DM devices anymore.
