dm io: Support IO priority

2024-02-20T19:22:51+00:00

Some IO will dispatch from kworker with different io_context settings than the submitting task, we may need to specify a priority to avoid losing priority. Add IO priority parameter to dm_io() and update all callers.

dm writecache: allow allocations larger than 2GiB

2024-01-30T19:07:30+00:00

The function kvmalloc_node limits the allocation size to INT_MAX. This limit will be overflowed if dm-writecache attempts to map a device with 1TiB or larger length. This commit changes kvmalloc_array to vmalloc_array to avoid the limit. The commit also changes vmalloc(array_size()) to vmalloc_array(). Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

dm: add helper macro for simple DM target module init and exit

2023-04-11T16:09:08+00:00

Eliminate duplicate boilerplate code for simple modules that contain a single DM target driver without any additional setup code. Add a new module_dm() macro, which replaces the module_init() and module_exit() with template functions that call dm_register_target() and dm_unregister_target() respectively.
