      [PATCH] swim_iop · 2b0f3d03
      Alexander Viro authored
      	* switched to private queue
      	* set ->queue and ->private_data
      	* switched to new methods
      	* switched to use of ->bd_disk
      	* fixed the idiocy I'd introduced there during end_request()
      	  reshuffling - too many places got hit by search-and-replace ;-/
      
      NOTE: swim_iop (and swim3) are broken for situations when several drives
      are present.  Failure mode is rather amusing - the thing does a sort of
      load-balancing and if you have two drives even requests end up sent to
      the first and odd - to the second ;-) Had been there since they went
      into the tree.  Swim3 mentions that support of multiple drives needs to
      be fixed, swim_iop (derived from it) had lost even that warning.

      [PATCH] md.c · 62da9e6b
      Alexander Viro authored
      AAAARGH.  OK, I've got it to work with the current tree, but...  I don't
      like the lifetime rules - both old and new ones.  Summary:
      
      	* we create a gendisk upon attempt to open or upon successful
      	  attempt to run (which _can_ happen without open).
      	* we never remove them until the rmmod (or ever).
      	* mddev is held by gendisk.
      
      The source of trouble is our API - ioctls on possibly unconfigured
      devices when no IO is possible, potentially setting up this (or another,
      or many other) devices.  I _think_ we can get the old rules (mddev
      exists when somebody holds it open or when it runs or when somebody is
      looking at it funny), but the way I see will take more messing with
      driverfs objects than I want right now. 
      
      Notice that current API is, was and will be ripe with interesting races
      - it really ought to be replaced with something saner, but that would
      take serious modifications of userland tools.  I'll talk with Neil about
      possible solution, this patch just gets it back to life.

      [PATCH] ide.c cleaned up · 6dc95b4c
      Alexander Viro authored
      	* got ->private_data and ->queue set
      	* got blk_register_region() done in ide-probe.c
      	* module loading removed from ide_open() (and taken to probe)
      	* ->open() and friends are using ->bd_disk->private_data instead of
      	  messing with get_info_ptr(inode->i_rdev)
      	* request handler uses ->rq_disk->private_data instead of DEVICE_NR(...)
      	* DEVICE_NR() removed.
      	* switched to new methods.
      	* get_info_ptr() killed.
      	* ide_xlate_1024() switched to struct block_device * (probably should
      	  simply die).
      
      NOTE: ide-tape pulls mind-boggling crap - it can be opened as a block
      device, but you can't do any IO on it; only IDE ioctls.  It happens to
      work (almost by accident), but I'd really prefer to take said ioctls to
      driverfs and be done with that. 
      
      NOTE: WTF are ide{disk,cd,tape,scsi,floppy} lists? They are defined,
      exported and never touched by anything.

      [PATCH] cdrom helpers · 2988ef57
      Alexander Viro authored
      	cdrom_open(), cdrom_release(), cdrom_ioctl() and cdrom_media_changed()
      got an additional argument - struct cdrom_device_info *.  Drivers that used
      to have them as methods are using wrappers that pass right cdrom_device_info.
      Existing callers (in ide-cd.c) updated.  pcd.c, mcdx.c, sbpcd.c and sr.c
      got ->private_data in their disks pointing to relevant objects.  Since all
      callers of cdrom_find_device() are gone, it got removed.  Since all users
      of cdrom_device_info->dev are gone, it's not set anymore (and got removed).

      [PATCH] infrastructure · 6b388653
      Alexander Viro authored
      	* added ->media_changed(disk).  Callers of ->check_media_changed()
      are using that one if present
      	* added ->revaldiate_disk(disk).  Callers of ->revalidate()
      are using that one if present
      	* added disk->queue.  do_open() uses it if non-NULL
      	* added disk->private_data
      	* removed assignments to inode->i_data.backing_... - it belongs to
      filesystem that contains device node and we don't care about it;
      inode->i_mapping points to ->i_data of bdev inode and there we should
      (and do) set that field.
