Subject: [GIT PULL] Block fixes for 3.16-rc1
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2014 09:31:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140618163150.GA15142@kernel.dk> (raw)

Hi Linus,

A smaller collection of fixes for the block core that would be nice to
have in -rc2. This pull request contains:

- Fixes for races in the wait/wakeup logic used in blk-mq from
  Alexander. No issues have been observed, but it is definitely a bit
  flakey currently. Alternatively, we may drop the cyclic wakeups going
  forward, but that needs more testing.

- Some cleanups from Christoph.

- Fix for an oops in null_blk if queue_mode=1 and softirq completions
  are used. From me.

- A fix for a regression caused by the chunk size setting. It
  inadvertently used max_hw_sectors instead of max_sectors, which is
  incorrect, and causes hangs on btrfs multi-disk setups (where hw
  sectors apparently isn't set). From me.

- Removal of WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT in the kblockd creation. This was a
  recent addition as well, but it actually breaks blk-mq which relies on
  strict scheduling. If the workqueue power_efficient mode is turned on,
  this breaks blk-mq. From Matias.

- null_blk module parameter description fix from Mike.


Please pull!
