md: disable WRITE SAME if it fails in underlayer disks

2017-02-14T03:24:16+00:00

This makes md do the same thing as dm for write same IO failure. Please see 7eee4ae(dm: disable WRITE SAME if it fails) for details why we need this. We did a little bit different than dm. Instead of disabling writesame in the first IO error, we disable it till next writesame IO coming after the first IO error. This way we don't need to clone a bio.

block: Use pointer to backing_dev_info from request_queue

2017-02-02T15:20:48+00:00

We will want to have struct backing_dev_info allocated separately from struct request_queue. As the first step add pointer to backing_dev_info to request_queue and convert all users touching it.

md: cleanup mddev flag clear for takeover

2017-01-05T19:45:18+00:00

Commit 6995f0b (md: takeover should clear unrelated bits) clear unrelated bits, but it's quite fragile. To avoid error in the future, define a macro for unsupported mddev flags for each raid type and use it to clear unsupported mddev flags. This should be less error-prone.

md: takeover should clear unrelated bits

2016-12-09T06:00:11+00:00

When we change level from raid1 to raid5, the MD_FAILFAST_SUPPORTED bit will be accidentally set, but raid5 doesn't support it. The same is true for the MD_HAS_JOURNAL bit. Fix: 46533ff (md: Use REQ_FAILFAST_* on metadata writes where appropriate) Reviewed-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li

md: add block tracing for bio_remapping

2016-11-18T17:32:50+00:00

The block tracing infrastructure (accessed with blktrace/blkparse) supports the tracing of mapping bios from one device to another. This is currently used when a bio in a partition is mapped to the whole device, when bios are mapped by dm, and for mapping in md/raid5. Other md personalities do not include this tracing yet, so add it. When a read-error is detected we redirect the request to a different device. This could justifiably be seen as a new mapping for the originial bio, or a secondary mapping for the bio that errors. This patch uses the second option. When md is used under dm-raid, the mappings are not traced as we do not have access to the block device number of the parent. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li

md/raid0: replace printk() with pr_*()

This makes md/raid0 much less verbose as the messages about the array geometry are now pr_debug() Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li

block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf

2016-08-07T20:41:02+00:00

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger, rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break at compile time instead of at runtime. No intended functional changes in this commit.

block, drivers, fs: rename REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

To avoid confusion between REQ_OP_FLUSH, which is handled by request_fn drivers, and upper layers requesting the block layer perform a flush sequence along with possibly a WRITE, this patch renames REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH.
