| | | | | | | | | | | | This document is completely out of date and extremely misleading.

* docs: block: biodoc.rst: Drop the obsolete and incorrect contentBarry Song2022-02-111-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 7eaceaccab5f ("block: remove per-queue plugging"), kernel has removed blk_run_address_space(), blk_unplug() and sync_buffer(), and moved to on-stack plugging. The document has been obsolete for years. Given that there is no obvious counterparts in the new mechinism to replace old APIs, this patch drops the content directly.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the fscrypt inline encryption support is documented in the "Implementation details" section, and it doesn't go into much detail. It's really more than just an "implementation detail" though, as there is a user-facing mount option. Also, hardware-wrapped key support (an upcoming feature) will depend on inline encryption and will affect the on-disk format; by definition that's not just an implementation detail. Therefore, move this documentation into its own section and expand it. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210916174928.65529-4-ebiggers@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a resource-managed variant of blk_ksm_init() so that drivers don't have to worry about calling blk_ksm_destroy(). Note that the implementation uses a custom devres action to call blk_ksm_destroy() rather than switching the two allocations to be directly devres-managed, e.g. with devm_kmalloc(). This is because we need to keep zeroing the memory containing the keyslots when it is freed, and also because we want to continue using kvmalloc() (and there is no devm_kvmalloc()).

However, NVMe ZNS does not have this constraint and allows write operations into sequential zones to be aligned to the device logical block size. This inconsistency does not help with software portability across device types. To solve this, introduce the zone_write_granularity queue limit to indicate the alignment constraint, in bytes, of write operations into zones of a zoned block device. This new limit is exported as a read-only sysfs queue attribute and the helper blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() introduced for drivers to set this limit. The function blk_queue_set_zoned() is modified to set this new limit to the device logical block size by default. NVMe ZNS devices as well as zoned nullb devices use this default value as is. The scsi disk driver is modified to execute the blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() helper to set the zone write granularity of host-managed SMR disks to the disk physical block size. The accessor functions queue_zone_write_granularity() and bdev_zone_write_granularity() are also introduced.

On Sphinx 3.x, structs should now be declared using the .. c:struct, and referenced via :c:struct tag. As we now have the automarkup.py macro, that automatically convert: struct foo into cross-references, let's get rid of that, solving several warnings when building docs with Sphinx 3.x.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel documentation includes a brief section about genhd capabilities, but it turns out that the only documented capability (GENHD_FL_MEDIA_CHANGE_NOTIFY) isn't used any more. This patch removes that flag, and documents the rest, based on my understanding of the current uses of these flags in the kernel. The documentation is kept in the header file, alongside the declarations, in the hope that it will be kept up-to-date in future; the kernel documentation is changed to include the documentation generated from the header file. Because the ultimate goal is to provide some end-user documentation (or end-administrator documentation), the comments are perhaps more user-oriented than might be expected. Since the values are shown to users in hexadecimal, the documentation lists them in hexadecimal, and the constant declarations are adjusted to match.
