[PATCH] xen-blk[front|back] FUA additions.
I am proposing these two patches for 3.2. They allow the backend
to process the REQ_FUA request as well. Previous to these patches
it only did REQ_FLUSH. There is also a bug-fix for the logic
of how barrier/flushes were handled.
The patches are based on a branch which also has ''feature-discard''
patches, so they won''t apply nativly on top of 3.1-rc5.
Please review and

[PATCH V4 0/3] xen-blkfront/blkback discard support
Dear list,
This is the V4 of the trim support for xen-blkfront/blkback,
Now we move BLKIF_OP_TRIM to BLKIF_OP_DISCARD, and dropped all
"trim" stuffs in the patches, and use "discard" instead.
Also we updated the helpers of blkif_x86_{32|64}_request or we
will meet problems using a non-native protocol.
And this patch has been tested with both SSD and raw file,

[PATCH] Persistent grant maps for xen blk drivers
This patch implements persistent grants for the xen-blk{front,back}
mechanism. The effect of this change is to reduce the number of unmap
operations performed, since they cause a (costly) TLB shootdown. This
allows the I/O performance to scale better when a large number of VMs
are performing I/O.
Previously, the blkfront driver was supplied a bvec[] from the request
queue. This was granted to

Colour-coding intervals on a line
Hi,
This is a simple version of something that I am trying to do. If I can
sort the problem basically, I figure I should be able to sort it for the
program I'm writing (which would take longer to explain).
I need to know if there is any way of using different colours for
different intervals of a line on a graph. Eg. If I plot the line y=x for
x=1:10, and split this line into 106 intervals

block ring interface: nr_segments = 0 results in BLKIF_RSP_ERROR
I am currently developing a blkfront.c for a custom OS over Xen 3.0.2-2. Typical I/O is working, however, I ran into an error while testing a corner case.
On standard I/O, where { 1 <= nr_segments < BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST } blkif_int()''s bret->status returns BLKIF_RSP_OKAY.
Yet when { nr_segments == 0 } blkif_int''s bret->status is non-zero. (Yes

[PATCH] blkback: Fix block I/O latency issue
In blkback driver, after I/O requests are submitted to Dom-0 block I/O subsystem, blkback goes to ''sleep'' effectively without letting blkfront know about it (req_event isn''t set appropriately). Hence blkfront doesn''t notify blkback when it submits a new I/O thus delaying the ''dispatch'' of the new I/O to Dom-0 block I/O subsystem. The new I/O is

xentop reporting zero written sectors
Just moving a chunk of files from one filesysstem on xvba to another
on xvdb, and was monitoring with xentop as it was taking longer than
expected.
The VBD_RD and VBD_WR counters were both clocking-up as expected, as
was the VBD_RSECT counter, but the VBD_WSECT counter was stuck on
zero, I toggled on the individual VBD device counters and these showed

[blkback] blkback statistic counters are signed values
Hi,
One of our colleagues spotted a problem in xentop. Sometimes the
VBD_WSECT value suddenly becomes unreasonably high, and it turned out
xentop reads
/sys/bus/xen-backend/devices/vbd-(domid)-(devID)/statistics/wr_sect into
an unsigned long long. That value is exposed by blkback, and among other
stat counters, it''s a signed integer:

Granttable handling is incomplete. If a page is gone, a GNTST_eagain

retried after a while, until the page is available again.

R-beta: spline problems(?)
Hi,
I am a total beginner with this whole thing so please have patience!
I am trying to run an S-plus program with a certain line:
spline(1:nrow(y), y[,1],n=100);
This crashes with:
Error: NAs in foreign function call (arg 8)
Apparently, this is caused by the last command of spline:
u <- seq(xmin, xmax, length.out = n)
.C("spline_eval", z$method, length(u), x = u, y =
