It is possible to request a 'check' of an md/raid array where the whole array is read and consistancies are reported. This uses the same mechanisms as 'resync' and so reports in the kernel logs that a resync is being started. This understandably confuses/worries people. Also the text in /proc/mdstat suggests a 'resync' is happen when it is just a check. This patch changes those messages to be more specific about what is happening. Signed-off-by:

This is very different from other raid levels and all requests go through a 'stripe cache', and it has congestion management already. Signed-off-by:

raid1, raid10 and multipath don't report their 'congested' status through bdi_*_congested, but should. This patch adds the appropriate functions which just check the 'congested' status of all active members (with appropriate locking). raid1 read_balance should be modified to prefer devices where bdi_read_congested returns false. Then we could use the '&' branch rather than the '|' branch. However that should would need some benchmarking first to make sure it is actually a good idea. Signed-off-by:

Each backing_dev needs to be able to report whether it is congested, either by modulating BDI_*_congested in ->state, or by defining a ->congested_fn. md/raid did neither of these. This patch add a congested_fn which simply checks all component devices to see if they are congested. Signed-off-by:

The error handling routines don't use proper locking, and so two concurrent errors could trigger a problem. So: - use test-and-set and test-and-clear to synchonise the In_sync bits with the ->degraded count - use the spinlock to protect updates to the degraded count (could use an atomic_t but that would be a bigger change in code, and isn't really justified) - remove un-necessary locking in raid5 Signed-off-by: -

Add a new sysfs interface that allows the bitmap of an array to be dirtied. The interface is write-only, and is used as follows: echo "1000" > /sys/block/md2/md/bitmap (dirty the bit for chunk 1000 [offset 0] in the in-memory and on-disk bitmaps of array md2) echo "1000-2000" > /sys/block/md1/md/bitmap (dirty the bits for chunks 1000-2000 in md1's bitmap) This is useful, for example, in cluster environments where you may need to combine two disjoint bitmaps into one (following a server failure, after a secondary server has taken over the array). By combining the bitmaps on the two servers, a full resync can be avoided (This was discussed on the list back on March 18, 2005, "[PATCH 1/2] md bitmap bug fixes" thread). Signed-off-by:

They are not needed. conf->failed_disks is the same as mddev->degraded and conf->working_disks is conf->raid_disks - mddev->degraded. Signed-off-by:

Instead of magic numbers (0,1,2,3) in sb_dirty, we have some flags instead: MD_CHANGE_DEVS Some device state has changed requiring superblock update on all devices. MD_CHANGE_CLEAN The array has transitions from 'clean' to 'dirty' or back, requiring a superblock update on active devices, but possibly not on spares MD_CHANGE_PENDING A superblock update is underway. We wait for an update to complete by waiting for all flags to be clear. A flag can be set at any time, even during an update, without risk that the change will be lost. Stop exporting md_update_sb - isn't needed. Signed-off-by:

I found a problem within device-mapper that occurs in low-mem situations. It was found using a mirror target but I think in theory it would hit any setup that stacks device-mapper devices (like LVM on top of multipath). Since device-mapper core uses the common fs_bioset in clone_bio(), and a private, but still global, bio_set in split_bvec() it is possible that the filesystem and the first level target successfully get bios but the lower level target doesn't because there is no more memory and the pool was drained by upper layers. So the remapping will be stuck forever. To solve this device-mapper core needs to use a private bio_set for each device. Signed-off-by:

This patch is designed to help dm-crypt comply with the new constraints imposed by the following patch in -mm: md-dm-reduce-stack-usage-with-stacked-block-devices.patch Under low memory the existing implementation relies upon waiting for I/O submitted recursively to generic_make_request() completing before the original generic_make_request() call can return. This patch moves the I/O submission to a workqueue so the original generic_make_request() can return immediately. Signed-off-by:

Milan Broz authored
This patch adds a target preresume hook. It is called before the targets are resumed and if it returns an error the resume gets cancelled. The crypt target will use this to indicate that it is unable to process I/O because no encryption key has been supplied. Signed-off-by:

Device-mapper devices are not accessible until a 'resume' ioctl has been issued. For userspace to find out when this happens we need to generate an uevent for udev to take appropriate action. As discussed at OLS we should send 'change' events for 'resume'. We can think of no useful purpose served by also having 'suspend' events. Signed-off-by:

If a snapshot became invalid while there are outstanding pending_exceptions, when pending_complete() processes each one it forgets to remove the corresponding exception from its exception table before freeing it. Fix this by moving the 'out:' label up one statement so that remove_exception() is always called. Then __invalidate_exception() no longer needs to call it and its 'pe' argument become superfluous.

When suspending a device-mapper device, dm_suspend() sleeps until all necessary I/O is completed. This state is triggered by a callback from persistent_commit(). But some I/O can still be issued *after* the callback (to prepare the next metadata area for use if the current one is full). This patch delays the callback until after that I/O is complete.

read_exception() and write_exception() only return an error if supplied with an out-of-range index. If this ever happens it's the result of a bug in the calling code so we handle this with an assertion and remove the error handling in the callers. Signed-off-by:
