Commit 148f948ba8 (vfs: Introduce new
helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) broke
the raw driver.
We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync ->
vfs_fsync_range. vfs_fsync_range has:
if (!fop || !fop->fsync) {
ret = -EINVAL;
goto out;
}
But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method.
We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely. I'm
happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it
is rarely used.
The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver. My knowledge of
the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over.
If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be
useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

Shaohua Li reported his tmpfs streaming I/O test can lead to make oom.
The test uses a 6G tmpfs in a system with 3G memory. In the tmpfs, there
are 6 copies of kernel source and the test does kbuild for each copy. His
investigation shows the test has a lot of rotated anon pages and quite few
file pages, so get_scan_ratio calculates percent[0] (i.e. scanning
percent for anon) to be zero. Actually the percent[0] shoule be a big
value, but our calculation round it to zero.
Although before commit 84b18490 ("vmscan: get_scan_ratio() cleanup") , we
have the same problem too. But the old logic can rescue percent[0]==0
case only when priority==0. It had hided the real issue. I didn't think
merely streaming io can makes percent[0]==0 && priority==0 situation. but
I was wrong.
So, definitely we have to fix such tmpfs streaming io issue. but anyway I
revert the regression commit at first.
This reverts commit 84b18490d1.

When ide taskfile access is being used (for example with hdparm --security

cfq_put_request.
The reason is that the cfq scheduler is tracking counts of read and write
requests separately; the ide-taskfile subsystem allocates a read request and
then flips the flag to make it a write request. The counters in cfq will
mismatch.
This patch changes ide-taskfile to allocate the READ or WRITE request as

This causes harddrives to shrink during resume making libata detach
and reattach them. This can be worked around by unlocking HPA if old
size equals native size.
Add ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA so that HPA unlocking can be controlled
per-device and update ata_dev_revalidate() such that it sets

Thank you for contacting us. We know that with our M225 line of SSDs
you sometimes need to disable NCQ (native command queuing) to avoid
just the type of errors you're seeing. Our recommendation for the
M225 is to add libata.force=noncq to your Linux kernel boot options,
under the kernel ATA library option.
I have sent your feedback to the engineers working on the C300, and
asked them to please pass it on to the firmware team. I have been
notified that they are in the process of testing and finalizing a
new firmware version, that you can expect to see released around the
end of April. We’ll keep you posted as to when it will be available
for download.
So, turn off NCQ on the drive w/ the current firmware revision.
