md: remove clumsy usage of do_sync_mapping_range from bitmap code

2009-10-16T04:56:01Z

and replace with vfs_fsync which is much neater (but wasn't exported, or even in existence at the time the code was written). Cc: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: remove sparse warnings about lock context.

2009-09-23T08:06:44Z

There was a real error here on a failure path where we incorrectly call rcu_read_unlock. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: bitmap: improve bitmap maintenance code.

2009-05-25T23:41:17Z

The code for checking which bits in the bitmap can be cleared has 2 problems: 1/ it repeatedly takes and drops a spinlock, where it would make more sense to just hold on to it most of the time. 2/ it doesn't make use of some opportunities to skip large sections of the bitmap This patch fixes those. It will only affect CPU consumption, not correctness. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size

2009-05-22T21:22:54Z

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device. With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain 512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size and the logical ditto. This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

md: fix some (more) errors with bitmaps on devices larger than 2TB.

2009-05-07T02:49:06Z

If a write intent bitmap covers more than 2TB, we sometimes work with values beyond 32bit, so these need to be sector_t. This patches add the required casts to some unsigned longs that are being shifted up. This will affect any raid10 larger than 2TB, or any raid1/4/5/6 with member devices that are larger than 2TB.

md: fix loading of out-of-date bitmap.

2009-05-07T02:47:19Z

When md is loading a bitmap which it knows is out of date, it fills each page with 1s and writes it back out again. However the write_page call makes used of bitmap->file_pages and bitmap->last_page_size which haven't been set correctly yet. So this can sometimes fail. Move the setting of file_pages and last_page_size to before the call to write_page. This bug can cause the assembly on an array to fail, thus making the data inaccessible. Hence I think it is a suitable candidate for -stable. Cc: stable@kernel.org Reported-by: Vojtech Pavlik Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: support bitmaps on RAID10 arrays larger then 2 terabytes

2009-04-20T01:50:24Z

.. and other arrays with components larger than 2 terabytes. We use a "long" rather than a "sector_t" in part of the bitmap size calculations, which is sad. Reported-by: "Mario 'BitKoenig' Holbe" Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: improve usefulness and accuracy of sysfs file md/sync_completed.

2009-04-14T06:28:34Z

The sync_completed file reports how much of a resync (or recovery or reshape) has been completed. However due to the possibility of out-of-order completion of writes, it is not certain to be accurate. We have an internal value - mddev->curr_resync_completed - which is an accurate value (though it might not always be quite so uptodate). So: - make curr_resync_completed be uptodate a little more often, particularly when raid5 reshape updates status in the metadata - report curr_resync_completed in the sysfs file - allow poll/select to report all updates to md/sync_completed. This makes sync_completed completed usable by any external metadata handler that wants to record this status information in its metadata. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: Make mddev->size sector-based.

2009-03-31T03:33:13Z

This patch renames the "size" field of struct mddev_s to "dev_sectors" and stores the number of 512-byte sectors instead of the number of 1K-blocks in it. All users of that field, including raid levels 1,4-6,10, are adjusted accordingly. This simplifies the code a bit because it allows to get rid of a couple of divisions/multiplications by two. In order to make checkpatch happy, some minor coding style issues have also been addressed. In particular, size_store() now uses strict_strtoull() instead of simple_strtoull().
