This is the fifth iteration of this patch set.
I *HOPE* that we can scrap this patch set and merge Adrian's
patches instead, because they also bring CQE support which is
nice. I had some review comments on his series, mainly that
it needs to kill off the legacy block layer code path that
noone likes anyway.
So this is mainly an academic and inspirational exercise.
Whatever remains of this refactoring, if anything, I can
certainly do on top of Adrian's patches as well.
What changed since v4 is the error path, since Adrian pointed
out that the error handling seems to be fragile. It was indeed
fragile... To make sure things work properly I have run long
test rounds with fault injection, essentially:
Enable FAULT_INJECTION, FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS,
FAIL_MMC_REQUEST
cd /debug/mmc3/fail_mmc_request/
echo 1 > probability
echo -1 > times
Then running a dd to the card, also increased the error rate
to 10% and completed tests successfully, but at this error
rate the MMC stack sometimes exceeds the retry limit and the
dd command fails (as is appropriate).
Removing a card during I/O does not work well however :/
So I guess I would need to work on that if this series should
continue. (Hopefully unlikely.)
