dm cache: destroy migration_cache if cache target registration failed

2018-10-09T17:53:03+00:00

Commit 7e6358d244e47 ("dm: fix various targets to dm_register_target after module __init resources created") inadvertently introduced this bug when it moved dm_register_target() after the call to KMEM_CACHE().

dm cache: fix resize crash if user doesn't reload cache table

2018-10-04T19:20:52+00:00

A reload of the cache's DM table is needed during resize because otherwise a crash will occur when attempting to access smq policy entries associated with the portion of the cache that was recently extended. The reason is cache-size based data structures in the policy will not be resized, the only way to safely extend the cache is to allow for a proper cache policy initialization that occurs when the cache table is loaded. For example the smq policy's space_init(), init_allocator(), calc_hotspot_params() must be sized based on the extended cache size. The fix for this is to disallow cache resizes of this pattern: 1) suspend "cache" target's device 2) resize the fast device used for the cache 3) resume "cache" target's device Instead, the last step must be a full reload of the cache's DM table.

dm kcopyd: return void from dm_kcopyd_copy()

2018-07-31T21:33:21+00:00

dm_kcopyd_copy() only ever returns 0 so there is no need for callers to account for possible failure. Same goes for dm_kcopyd_zero(). Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

dm cache: only allow a single io_mode cache feature to be requested

2018-07-27T19:24:18+00:00

More than one io_mode feature can be requested when creating a dm cache device (as is: last one wins). The io_mode selections are incompatible with one another, we should force them to be selected exclusively. Add a counter to check for more than one io_mode selection.

dm: adjust structure members to improve alignment

dm: allow targets to return output from messages they are sent

2018-04-03T19:04:10+00:00

Could be useful for a target to return stats or other information. If a target does DMEMIT() anything to @result from its .message method then it must return 1 to the caller. Signed-off-By: Mike Snitzer
