dm: make EBS depend on !HIGHMEM

2021-08-16T16:50:32+00:00

__ebs_rw_bvec use page_address on the submitted bios data, and thus can't deal with highmem. Disable the target on highmem configs. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210804095634.460779-4-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: make the block holder code optional

2021-08-09T17:50:42+00:00

Move the block holder code into a separate file as it is not in any way related to the other block_dev.c code, and add a new selectable config option for it so that we don't have to build it without any remapped drivers selected. The Kconfig symbol contains a _DEPRECATED suffix to match the comments added in commit 49731baa41df ("block: restore multiple bd_link_disk_holder() support").

md: mark some personalities as deprecated

2021-06-15T05:32:07+00:00

Mark the three personalities (linear, fault and multipath) as deprecated because: 1. people can use dm multipath or nvme multipath. 2. linear is already deprecated in MODULE_ALIAS. 3. no one actively using fault. Signed-off-by: Guoqing Jiang Signed-off-by: Song Liu

dm crypt: support using trusted keys

2021-02-03T15:13:00+00:00

Commit 27f5411a718c ("dm crypt: support using encrypted keys") extended dm-crypt to allow use of "encrypted" keys along with "user" and "logon". Along the same lines, teach dm-crypt to support "trusted" keys as well. Signed-off-by: Ahmad Fatoum Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

dm integrity: select CRYPTO_SKCIPHER

2021-01-04T20:02:31+00:00

The integrity target relies on skcipher for encryption/decryption, but certain kernel configurations may not enable CRYPTO_SKCIPHER, leading to compilation errors due to unresolved symbols. Explicitly select CRYPTO_SKCIPHER for DM_INTEGRITY, since it is unconditionally dependent on it. Signed-off-by: Anthony Iliopoulos Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

dm mpath: add IO affinity path selector

2020-12-04T23:04:35+00:00

This patch adds a path selector that selects paths based on a CPU to path mapping the user passes in and what CPU we are executing on. The primary user for this PS is where the app is optimized to use specific CPUs so other PSs undo the apps handy work, and the storage and it's transport are not a bottlneck. For these io-affinity PS setups a path's transport/interconnect perf is not going to flucuate a lot and there is no major differences between paths, so QL/HST smarts do not help and RR always messes up what the app is trying to do. On a system with 16 cores, where you have a job per CPU: fio --filename=/dev/dm-0 --direct=1 --rw=randrw --bs=4k \ --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=128 --numjobs=16 and a dm-multipath device setup where each CPU is mapped to one path: // When in mq mode I had to set dm_mq_nr_hw_queues=$NUM_PATHS. // Bio mode also showed similar results. 0 16777216 multipath 0 0 1 1 io-affinity 0 16 1 8:16 1 8:32 2 8:64 4 8:48 8 8:80 10 8:96 20 8:112 40 8:128 80 8:144 100 8:160 200 8:176 400 8:192 800 8:208 1000 8:224 2000 8:240 4000 65:0 8000 we can see a IOPs increase of 25%. The percent increase depends on the device and interconnect. For a slower/medium speed path/device that can do around 180K IOPs a path if you ran that fio command to it directly we saw a 25% increase like above. Slower path'd devices that could do around 90K per path showed maybe around a 2 - 5% increase. If you use something like null_blk or scsi_debug which can multi-million IOPs and hack it up so each device they export shows up as a path then you see 50%+ increases.

dm verity: Add support for signature verification with 2nd keyring

2020-12-04T23:04:35+00:00

Add a new configuration DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG_SECONDARY_KEYRING to enable dm-verity signatures to be verified against the secondary trusted keyring. Instead of relying on the builtin trusted keyring (with hard-coded certificates), the second trusted keyring can include certificate authorities from the builtin trusted keyring and child certificates loaded at run time. Using the secondary trusted keyring enables to use dm-verity disks (e.g. loop devices) signed by keys which did not exist at kernel build time, leveraging the certificate chain of trust model. In practice, this makes it possible to update certificates without kernel update and reboot, aligning with module and kernel (kexec) signature verification which already use the secondary trusted keyring.

Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: LVM

2020-07-05T20:28:27+00:00

Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

2020-06-13T16:57:21+00:00

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances. This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation. There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---' In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the following commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada
