md/raid0: improve error message when converting RAID4-with-spares to RAID0

2013-02-26T00:58:44Z

Mentioning "bad disk number -1" exposes irrelevant internal detail. Just say they are inactive and must be removed. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: raid0: fix error return from create_stripe_zones.

2013-02-26T00:57:04Z

Create_stripe_zones returns an error slightly differently to raid0_run and to raid0_takeover_*. The error returned used by the second was wrong and an error would result in mddev->private being set to NULL and sooner or later a crash. So never return NULL, return ERR_PTR(err), not NULL from create_stripe_zones. This bug has been present since 2.6.35 so the fix is suitable for any kernel since then.

md: fix two bugs when attempting to resize RAID0 array.

2013-02-26T00:55:40Z

You cannot resize a RAID0 array (in terms of making the devices bigger), but the code doesn't entirely stop you. So: disable setting of the available size on each device for RAID0 and Linear devices. This must not change as doing so can change the effective layout of data. Make sure that the size that raid0_size() reports is accurate, but rounding devices sizes to chunk sizes. As the device sizes cannot change now, this isn't so important, but it is best to be safe. Without this change: mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -z max mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -Z max then read to the end of the array can cause a BUG in a RAID0 array. These bugs have been present ever since it became possible to resize any device, which is a long time. So the fix is suitable for any -stable kerenl.

block: Implement support for WRITE SAME

2012-09-20T12:31:45Z

The WRITE SAME command supported on some SCSI devices allows the same block to be efficiently replicated throughout a block range. Only a single logical block is transferred from the host and the storage device writes the same data to all blocks described by the I/O. This patch implements support for WRITE SAME in the block layer. The blkdev_issue_write_same() function can be used by filesystems and block drivers to replicate a buffer across a block range. This can be used to efficiently initialize software RAID devices, etc. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen Acked-by: Mike Snitzer Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

md: Avoid OOPS when reshaping raid1 to raid0

2012-04-03T05:37:26Z

raid1 arrays do not have the notion of chunk size. Calculate the largest chunk sector size we can use to avoid a divide by zero OOPS when aligning the size of the new array to the chunk size. Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: add proper merge_bvec handling to RAID0 and Linear.

2012-03-19T01:46:39Z

These personalities currently set a max request size of one page when any member device has a merge_bvec_fn because they don't bother to call that function. This causes extra works in splitting and combining requests. So make the extra effort to call the merge_bvec_fn when it exists so that we end up with larger requests out the bottom.

md: tidy up rdev_for_each usage.

2012-03-19T01:46:39Z

md.h has an 'rdev_for_each()' macro for iterating the rdevs in an mddev. However it uses the 'safe' version of list_for_each_entry, and so requires the extra variable, but doesn't include 'safe' in the name, which is useful documentation. Consequently some places use this safe version without needing it, and many use an explicity list_for_each entry. So: - rename rdev_for_each to rdev_for_each_safe - create a new rdev_for_each which uses the plain list_for_each_entry, - use the 'safe' version only where needed, and convert all other list_for_each_entry calls to use rdev_for_each.
