dm: Call proper helper to determine dax support

2020-09-20T15:55:09+00:00

DM was calling generic_fsdax_supported() to determine whether a device referenced in the DM table supports DAX. However this is a helper for "leaf" device drivers so that they don't have to duplicate common generic checks. High level code should call dax_supported() helper which that calls into appropriate helper for the particular device. This problem manifested itself as kernel messages: dm-3: error: dax access failed (-95) when lvm2-testsuite run in cases where a DM device was stacked on top of another DM device.

This function is just a tiny wrapper around blk_stack_limit and has two callers. Simplify the stack a bit by open coding it in the two callers. Reviewed-by: Johannes Thumshirn Reviewed-by: Damien Le Moal Tested-by: Damien Le Moal Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usage

2020-07-16T19:35:15+00:00

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1] (or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings (e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized, either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes. In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining needless uses with the following script: git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \ xargs perl -pi -e \ 's/\buninitialized_var$([^$]+)\)/\1/g; s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;' drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid pathological white-space. No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0 for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64, alpha, and m68k.

writeback: remove bdi->congested_fn

2020-07-08T23:20:46+00:00

Except for pktdvd, the only places setting congested bits are file systems that allocate their own backing_dev_info structures. And pktdvd is a deprecated driver that isn't useful in stack setup either. So remove the dead congested_fn stacking infrastructure.

bio based drivers only need to update q->nr_zones. Do that manually instead of overloading blk_revalidate_disk_zones to keep that function simpler for the next round of changes that will rely even more on the request based functionality.

dm table: do not allow request-based DM to stack on partitions

2019-11-05T16:22:52+00:00

Partitioned request-based devices cannot be used as underlying devices for request-based DM because no partition offsets are added to each incoming request. As such, until now, stacking on partitioned devices would _always_ result in data corruption (e.g. wiping the partition table, writing to other partitions, etc). Fix this by disallowing request-based stacking on partitions. While at it, since all .request_fn support has been removed from block core, remove legacy dm-table code that differentiated between blk-mq and .request_fn request-based. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer
