[PATCH V2 0/7] block: use right accessor to read nr_setcs

[PATCH V2 0/7] block: use right accessor to read nr_setcs

[Chaitanya Kulkarni]

Hi,

In the blk-zoned, bcache, f2fs and blktrace implementation
block device->hd_part->number of sectors field is accessed directly
without any appropriate locking or accessor function. There is
an existing accessor function present in the in include/linux/genhd.h
which should be used to read the bdev->hd_part->nr_sects.

From ${KERN_DIR}/include/linux/genhd.h:-
<snip>
714 /*
715  * Any access of part->nr_sects which is not protected by partition
716  * bd_mutex or gendisk bdev bd_mutex, should be done using this
717  * accessor function.
718  *
719  * Code written along the lines of i_size_read() and i_size_write().
720  * CONFIG_PREEMPT case optimizes the case of UP kernel with preemption
721  * on.
722  */
723 static inline sector_t part_nr_sects_read(struct hd_struct *part)
724 {
<snip>

This patch series introduces a helper function on the top of the
part_nr_sects_read() and removes the all direct accesses to the
bdev->hd_part->nr_sects for blk-zoned.c.

This series is based on :-

1. Repo :-
   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux-block.git.
2. Branch :- for-next.

Regards,
Chaitanya

Changes from V1:-

1. Drop the target_pscsi patch. (Bart)
2. Remove rcu locking which is not needed. (Bart)

Although this looks fine to me, is there any reason why the body of that 
function has not been written as follows?

static inline sector_t bdev_nr_sects(struct block_device *bdev)
{
	return part_nr_sects_read(bdev->bd_part);
}

Thanks,

In the subject, "nr_setcs" should probably be changed into "nr_sects"?

My feedback about the pscsi_get_blocks() was misleading: what I meant is 
that it is not necessary to introduce RCU locking in that function. I 
think that using bdev_nr_sects() or part_nr_sects_read() to read 
nr_sects in that function is useful.

Is there any reason that the following Xen macro has not been converted?

#define vbd_sz(_v)	((_v)->bdev->bd_part ? \
			 (_v)->bdev->bd_part->nr_sects : \
			  get_capacity((_v)->bdev->bd_disk))

Thanks,

Bart.
