md: report device as congested when suspended

2009-09-23T08:10:29+00:00

This should writeback from coming when the device is temporarily suspended. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: remove sparse waring "symbol xxx shadows an earlier one"

2009-09-23T08:06:41+00:00

Rename some variable and remove some duplicate definitions to avoid there warnings. None of them are actual errors. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

bio: first step in sanitizing the bio->bi_rw flag testing

2009-09-11T12:33:31+00:00

Get rid of any functions that test for these bits and make callers use bio_rw_flagged() directly. Then it is at least directly apparent what variable and flag they check. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

md: Push down data integrity code to personalities.

2009-08-03T00:59:47+00:00

This patch replaces md_integrity_check() by two new public functions: md_integrity_register() and md_integrity_add_rdev() which are both personality-independent. md_integrity_register() is called from the ->run and ->hot_remove methods of all personalities that support data integrity. The function iterates over the component devices of the array and determines if all active devices are integrity capable and if their profiles match. If this is the case, the common profile is registered for the mddev via blk_integrity_register(). The second new function, md_integrity_add_rdev() is called from the ->hot_add_disk methods, i.e. whenever a new device is being added to a raid array. If the new device does not support data integrity, or has a profile different from the one already registered, data integrity for the mddev is disabled. For raid0 and linear, only the call to md_integrity_register() from the ->run method is necessary. Signed-off-by: Andre Noll Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: Use new topology calls to indicate alignment and I/O sizes

2009-07-01T01:13:45+00:00

Switch MD over to the new disk_stack_limits() function which checks for aligment and adjusts preferred I/O sizes when stacking. Also indicate preferred I/O sizes where applicable. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: Move check for bitmap presence to personality code.

2009-06-17T22:49:23+00:00

If the superblock of a component device indicates the presence of a bitmap but the corresponding raid personality does not support bitmaps (raid0, linear, multipath, faulty), then something is seriously wrong and we'd better refuse to run such an array. Currently, this check is performed while the superblocks are examined, i.e. before entering personality code. Therefore the generic md layer must know which raid levels support bitmaps and which do not. This patch avoids this layer violation without adding identical code to various personalities. This is accomplished by introducing a new public function to md.c, md_check_no_bitmap(), which replaces the hard-coded checks in the superblock loading functions. A call to md_check_no_bitmap() is added to the ->run method of each personality which does not support bitmaps and assembly is aborted if at least one component device contains a bitmap.

md: raid0/linear: ensure device sizes are rounded to chunk size.

2009-06-17T22:48:55+00:00

This is currently ensured by common code, but it is more reliable to ensure it where it is needed in personality code. All the other personalities that care already round the size to the chunk_size. raid0 and linear are the only hold-outs. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: raid0: chunk_sectors cleanups.

2009-06-17T22:47:00+00:00

following the conversion to chunk_sectors, there is room for cleaning up a little. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: Make mddev->chunk_size sector-based.

2009-06-17T22:45:01+00:00

This patch renames the chunk_size field to chunk_sectors with the implied change of semantics. Since is_power_of_2(chunk_size) = is_power_of_2(chunk_sectors << 9) = is_power_of_2(chunk_sectors) these bits don't need an adjustment for the shift. Signed-off-by: Andre Noll Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: raid0 :Enables chunk size other than powers of 2.

2009-06-16T07:02:05+00:00

Maintain two flows, one for pow2 chunk sizes (which uses masks and shift), and a flow for the general case (which uses sector_div). This is for the sake of performance. - introduce map_sector and is_io_in_chunk_boundary to encapsulate those two flows better for raid0_make_request - fix blk_mergeable to support the two flows.
