      block drivers/block: Use octal not symbolic permissions · 5657a819
      Joe Perches authored
      Convert the S_<FOO> symbolic permissions to their octal equivalents as
      using octal and not symbolic permissions is preferred by many as more
      readable.
      
      see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/2/1945
      
      Done with automated conversion via:
      $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace <files...>
      
      Miscellanea:
      
      o Wrapped modified multi-line calls to a single line where appropriate
      o Realign modified multi-line calls to open parenthesis

      blk-mq: avoid starving tag allocation after allocating process migrates · e6fc4649
      Ming Lei authored
      When the allocation process is scheduled back and the mapped hw queue is
      changed, fake one extra wake up on previous queue for compensating wake
      up miss, so other allocations on the previous queue won't be starved.
      
      This patch fixes one request allocation hang issue, which can be
      triggered easily in case of very low nr_request.
      
      The race is as follows:
      
      1) 2 hw queues, nr_requests are 2, and wake_batch is one
      
      2) there are 3 waiters on hw queue 0
      
      3) two in-flight requests in hw queue 0 are completed, and only two
         waiters of 3 are waken up because of wake_batch, but both the two
         waiters can be scheduled to another CPU and cause to switch to hw
         queue 1
      
      4) then the 3rd waiter will wait for ever, since no in-flight request
         is in hw queue 0 any more.
      
      5) this patch fixes it by the fake wakeup when waiter is scheduled to
         another hw queue
