Subject: [PATCH 01/17] BLOCK: Move functions out of buffer code [try #2]

From: David Howells <[email protected]>

Move some functions out of the buffering code that aren't strictly buffering
specific. This is a precursor to being able to disable the block layer.

(*) Moved some stuff out of fs/buffer.c:

(*) The file sync and general sync stuff moved to fs/sync.c.

(*) The superblock sync stuff moved to fs/super.c.

(*) do_invalidatepage() moved to mm/truncate.c.

(*) try_to_release_page() moved to mm/filemap.c.

(*) Moved some related declarations between header files:

(*) declarations for do_invalidatepage() and try_to_release_page() moved
to linux/mm.h.

(*) __set_page_dirty_buffers() moved to linux/buffer_head.h.

Subject: [PATCH 08/17] BLOCK: Dissociate generic_writepages() from mpage stuff [try #2]

From: David Howells <[email protected]>

Dissociate the generic_writepages() function from the mpage stuff, moving its
declaration to linux/mm.h and actually emitting a full implementation into
mm/page-writeback.c.

The implementation is a partial duplicate of mpage_writepages() with all BIO
references removed.

It is used by NFS to do writeback.

Move common FS-specific ioctls from linux/ext2_fs.h to linux/fs.h as FS_IOC_*

Also move the GETFLAGS/SETFLAGS flags to linux/fs.h as FS_*_FL macros, and then
have the other users use them as a base.

Subject: [PATCH 04/17] BLOCK: Separate the bounce buffering code from the highmem code [try #2]

From: David Howells <[email protected]>

Move the bounce buffer code from mm/highmem.c to mm/bounce.c so that it can be
more easily disabled when the block layer is disabled.

!!!NOTE!!! There may be a bug in this code: Should init_emergency_pool() be
contingent on CONFIG_HIGHMEM?

Subject: [PATCH 17/17] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #2]

From: David Howells <[email protected]>

Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require
it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require
the block layer to be present.

This patch does the following:

(*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev
support.

(*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls
an item that uses the block layer. This includes:

(*) Block I/O tracing.

(*) Disk partition code.

(*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS.

(*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the
block layer to do scheduling.

(*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE, the old CDROM
drivers and USB storage.

(*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.

(*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by
taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book.

(*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and
linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is,
however, still used in places, and so is still available.

(*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and
parts of linux/fs.h.

(*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

(*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

(*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK
is not enabled.

(*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are
required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:

(*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).

(*) Makes some /proc changes:

(*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.

(*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

(*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

(*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if
given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.

(*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if
CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.

(*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return
error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).

(*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if
CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

Subject: [PATCH 05/17] BLOCK: Don't call block_sync_page() from AFS [try #2]

From: David Howells <[email protected]>

The AFS filesystem specifies block_sync_page() as its sync_page address op,
which needs to be checked, and so is commented out for the moment.

No, I defined them with u32 and u64 arguments, respectively, so the
numbers are distinct on 32 bit.

Seems reasonable.

Whilst that does seem reasonable, it seems like a lot of extra code for
something that I wouldn't have thought would be that performance critical.
Surely these two ioctls aren't called that often...

On the other hand, it does reduce stack space usage somewhat - which is a good
thing - and that can be reduced still further by moving the on-stack struct
compat_loop_info variable and the copy_to/from_user into loop_set_status_compat
and loop_get_status_compat.

Anyway, how about the attached patch (to go on top of the one you've already
got)?

This way will have used less stack when it gets to the main part of the loop
driver.

We should document somewhere where to use which of those functions,
especially as they are currently 100% functionally identical.

Also if we ever get private data for anything but buffers these kinds of
checks in generic code will cause problems. Maybe we should just
kill the default fallback in this case?

Can we put this into some other file under #ifndef CONFIG_BLOCK to
avoid the separate file and makefile ugliness?

No one should include this file unless block device support is enabled,
so I don't see the point for the ifdefs. Ditto for many other header
files you touch that don't contain any stubs for generic code.


And btw, shouldn't the option be CONFIG_BLK_DEV instead of CONFIG_BLOCK
to fit the variour CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FOO options we have?

Note that fs/Kconfig in -mm is mostly split into individual fs/*/Kconfig

The problem with reordering things is that it makes the patch bigger, and that

What've you done with the real Christoph Hellwig? You're actually *advocating*
the use of a cpp-conditional in a .c file!

It doesn't really belong in any of the files that are left.

No.

I'm not enabling a specific block device driver. I'm taking out the entire
block layer, block drivers, block scheduler and everything that depends on it
(such as SCSI).

I don't think I should. drivers/char/random.c seems to be carefully laid out

Same as above. USB_STORAGE already selects scsi so it shouldn't need

Ah, you've got it the wrong way round.

Because USB_STORAGE _selects_ SCSI rather than depending on it, even if SCSI
is disabled, USB_STORAGE can be enabled, and that turns on CONFIG_SCSI, even
if not all of its dependencies are available.

Run "make allyesconfig" and then try to turn off CONFIG_SCSI without this...

David,
same with config IEEE1394_SBP2.

(sbp2 and usb-storage use one to two block layer symbols directly for
the single purpose to tune the SCSI request queue. I.e. they depend on
BLOCK just because they are SCSI drivers.)

Eeek. The easy fix is to change USB_STORAGE to depend on SCSI (*), but in
addition to that we should probably fix Kconfig aswell to adhere to
such constraints.


(*) that selects is really wrong to start with, the other scsi drivers don't
select scsi either.

It is not wrong per se.

If SCSI is set to "N", then any menu items which depend on SCSI are not
visible anymore. This is not a problem with any of the items in the SCSI
configuration section.

But it is a problem for any items that live _in other configuration
sections_, such as USB_STORAGE (currently not affected because it
selects SCSI) and IEEE1394_SBP2 (does select SCSI now too in -mm).

If "select" cannot be fixed or is not en vogue for any other reason, the
configuration tools need to be improved otherwise, so that users are
guided to options like USB_STORAGE and IEEE1394_SBP2 when SCSI or other
"foreign" options were disabled.

The kernel configuration is currently presented as a tree, although the
dependencies of config options are not a tree. That's were "select" helps.

An easy but crude fix would be to add an according hint at the help text
of the immediately superordinate config option. E.g. at IEEE1394: "Also
enable SCSI support to be able to switch on SBP-2 support (IEEE 1394
protocol e.g. for storage devices)." But this is extremely ugly /1./
because it would litter help texts of generic options with redundant
information about specific options and /2./ because it requires users to
find and read help texts in order to convince the configurator to make
options visible.

No, the reason this was switched around like this (it used to be the
other way), was that people constantly complained about not being able
to select the usb-storage driver in their configurations.

Maybe the better solution is to remove SCSI as an option, and to just
offer SCSI drivers and USB-STORAGE and other SCSI core using drivers
instead. Then the SCSI core gets pulled in automatically. It's not
like people care about the SCSI core, just the drivers which depend on
it.

Actually dependencies are a tree and kconfig verifies that it's valid as
well and that's there "select" can wreak havoc.
select really creates a reverse dependency, i.e. the value of SCSI depends
now on the USB_STORAGE value. This means now that all dependencies of the
selected symbol have to be selected as well (either by the selecting
symbol or by the selected symbol). With more complex dependencies this can
quickly get out of hand in order to maintain a valid and correct
dependency tree. That's why I'm not really happy about the current massive
use of select and I'd rather find solutions with normal dependencies,
which unfortunately isn't trivial, select OTOH was a simple hack.

OK. You are right, they are both trees. But the menu tree is different
from the dependency tree. I can see two reasons: 1. We expect the menu's
layout to reflect function rather than implementation. 2. Menu tree and
dependency tree are directed trees, but only the menu tree has a root
(i.e. _one_ root).

It doesn't really revert the dependency. It changes the path that the
user takes to enable interdependent options. Thereby it changes _how_
the configurator ensures (or rather, _should_ ensure) that dependencies
are fulfilled.

"select" would not be needed if the configurator wouldn't make an option
_invisible_ if it depends on another disabled option. It would be nice
if the option would stay visible (or better yet, would be optionally
visible) and had pointers to unfulfilled dependencies.

Or more generally spoken, "select" would not be needed if there were
other means to switch the configurator's UI to a layout that exposes
more details about dependencies. There is already such a UI mode which
fully exposes _fulfilled_ dependencies.

Please don't do this.

USB_STORAGE switched from a depending on SCSI to select'ing SCSI three
years ago, and ATA in 2.6.19 will also select SCSI for a good reason:

When doing anything kconfig related, you must always remember that the

tristate "SBP-2 support (Harddisks etc.)"

no. But sending users from one menu to another for first manually

People don't want to have to say "no" to umpteen scsi drivers. They
just want to say "no" to SCSI, because they know they don't have scsi.

so then that's shows a problem with the kconfig syntax.

CONFIG_SCSI should perhaps be hidden, and what's visible to the user is
CONFIG_SCSI_DRIVER

USB-STORAGE would automatically pull in CONFIG_SCSI as would
CONFIG_SCSI_DRIVER.

or perhaps I'm just talking out of my ass.

Adrian, Roman,
both the comment hack and the 'select' hack introduce redundancy into
the Kconfig files and add maintenance cost. In addition, 'select'
currently brings a danger of inconsistent configuration. As I said
before, the proper solution would be enhancements to the "make
XYZconfig" UIs to comfortably present unfulfilled dependencies, based on
'depends on' alone. Alas my posting here is yet another one without a
patch included...

But drivers like usb-storage and sbp2 are SCSI drivers too. What you
mean is CONFIG_SCSI_DRIVERS_WHICH_APPEAR_IN_THE_SCSI_MENU.

It all just revolves around the fact that the menu layout does not match
the dependency graph. We currently sacrifice clarity and integrity of
the Kconfigs in order to solve presentational issues.

when I said "driver" I meant more along the line of SCSI hardware
instead of things that use the "Linux" scsi subsystem. i.e. usb, sata
are not scsi hardware even though they use the scsi subsystem.

Or to put it another way, perhaps no "select"able option should ever be
visibly selectable in XYZconfig. And XYZconfig should only show an
option that is "select"able if by selecting it one ends up with a
consistent configuration.

So you have a "virtual" SCSI_SUBSYSTEM which usb-storage, sbp2, sata all
pull in by selecting it.

you have SCSI_HARDWARE that adaptec, buslogic, lsilogic...... depend on.
SCSI_HARDWARE would also select "SCSI_SUBSYSTEM".

ok, but you should get the point.

basically anything "selectable" perhaps should be a purely "virtual" (as
in not shown in XYZconfig) option.

how one wants to name the options doesn't really bother me.

But David, you edit .config anyway, so who is "make *config" for?

I edit .config but still have to use 'make oldconfig' afterwards. And it
screws me over because of all this 'select' nonsense. This used to
work...
sed -i /^CONFIG_SCSI=/d .config
yes n | make oldconfig

So "make *config" certainly isn't optimised for me, although of course I
do have to use it. It seems to be increasingly optimised for Aunt
Tillie.

The vast majority of konfig user who might have a master in computer
science (like our Aunt Tillie has) but aren't kernel hackers have
different needs from kernel hackers.

I know how hard it is to e.g. find a maximum .config with FW_LOADER=n.

Normal kconfig users and kernel hackers have different needs, and the
real solution fitting the needs of both groups would in this case be
a patch to kconfig that allows a kernel hacker to specify which option
to deselect and does the rest automatically.

Coming from you, the Aunt Tillie argument doesn't make more sense than
it did coming from ESR.

The actual problem existed before select just as it does afterwards.
People have to search extensively though Kconfig files to come up with
a useful .config. Before people had to magically know that
USB_STORAGE requires SCSI. "Magically" because USB_STORAGE didn't
show up in either make menuconfig, make xconfig or .config. Now
people have to magically know that SCSI=n requires USB_STORAGE=n.
You have the exact same problem and it has nothing to do with Aunt
Tillie.

What this shows is that select was a bad idea, as it merely shifted
the problem around instead of fixing it. It appears as if Stefan is
looking in the right direction for a decent fix and I'd like to see
patches from him. If only to stop these bad analogies ESR tried to
argue with. :)

Yes and no. In the latter case, they have to magically know that at
least menuconfig and xconfig can be tricked to list depending options.

True. Marginally better than horrible then. :)

Absolutely. Assuming that select gets removed in the process, and
concentrating on oldconfig, would it be enough to have something like
this in the .config?

# CONFIG_USB_STORAGE has unmet dependencies: CONFIG_SCSI, CONFIG_BLOCK

Now people looking for usb mass storage can find the option without
grepping through Kconfig files, but also every single driver for every
single disabled subsystem shows up. Might be a bit too much.

Common use case:
A driver was changed to use FW_LOADER.
The .config for the old kernel contains CONFIG_FW_LOADER=n.
The user runs "make oldconfig" with the old .config in the new kernel.

How do you plan to handle this reasonably without select?

This comment or similar things are apparently not necessary _within
subsystems_, just across subsystems, i.e. where the hierarchy of
subdirectories and files does not match the hierarchy of dependencies.

"make oldconfig" could ask questions when it sees need to disable
formerly enabled options.

In general I think:
As long as we talk about the various prefab UIs to manipulate .config
(i.e. "make {allyes, allmod, allno, def, g, menu, old, rand, silentold,
update-po-, x, ''}config"), there may be ways to implement modes of
operation which do what people expect from 'select' but with 'depends
on' alone. To ensure that no user group is discriminated in the process,
committees could be formed. (<- attempt on irony)

It will get difficult to entirely please users who don't use these
interfaces to .config. But it seems these users are better off without
'select'.

We have a number of more or less friendly interfaces to configure
the kernel. Yet some people prefer to directly modify the .config.
That is fine let them do so.
But to get an overview over the sometimes complex logic thay have
to turn to move powerfull tools such as menuconfig.

Editing .config is a second class citizen way of configuring the
kernel, and menuconfig is first class IMHO.

So enhancing the .config file to express the dependencies
is not the way forward. We should do this in menuconfig (and friends)
and let users use the dedicated interface to edit their kernel
configuration using the dedicated tools and not by editing .config.

Much of the discussion are centered about "select" which is indeed
ugly are in some cases ill-used.
But prime issue is that using select makes it hard to
un-select certain configuration items. And avoiding select makes it
un-intuitive to enable some configuration items.
So we simple needs to:
1) Make is easy to un-select selected configuration items by unselecting
the relevant items
2) Make it possible to select 'non-visible' options by providing a way
to satisfy the dependencies.

And maybe 2) makes select almost obsolete..
