2012-06-05cfg80211: provide channel to join_mesh functionJohannes Berg
Just like the AP mode patch, instead of setting the channel and then joining the mesh network, provide the channel to join the network on to the join_mesh() function. Like in AP mode, you can also give the channel to the join-mesh nl80211 command now. Unlike AP mode, it picks a default channel if none was given. As libertas uses mesh mode interfaces but has no join_mesh callback and we can't simply break it, keep some compatibility code for that case and configure the channel directly for it. In the non-libertas case, where we store the channel until join, allow setting it while the interface is down. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2012-06-05cfg80211: disallow setting channel on WDS interfacesJohannes Berg
If it worked (Felix says it doesn't right now), the typical use-case for WDS interfaces would be to be slaved to AP mode interfaces. Therefore, it isn't necessary to set the channel on WDS interfaces. As they don't support powersave or anything like that, they also couldn't use a different channel anyway.

2012-06-05cfg80211: provide channel to start_ap functionJohannes Berg
Instead of setting the channel first and then starting the AP, let cfg80211 store the channel and provide it as one of the AP settings. This means that now you have to set the channel before you can start an AP interface, but since hostapd/wpa_supplicant always do that we're OK with this change. Alternatively, it's now possible to give the channel as an attribute to the start-ap nl80211 command, overriding any preset channel.

2012-06-05mac80211: clean up ieee80211_set_channelJohannes Berg
There's no need for ieee80211_set_channel to check whether a change in configuration happened since ieee80211_hw_config() auto-detects it. Additionally, it's wrong to pretend the HT config for the BSS changed, it didn't, the BSS can't be up & running (AP beaconing etc.) when the channel type is changed anyway.

2012-06-03dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadataJoe Thornber
This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_. This, read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the live target. Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time. The pool's status line will give the block location for the current msnap. Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows: thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev> Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things that have traditionally been kernel side tasks: i) Incremental backups. By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have changed over time. Combined with data snapshots we can ensure the data doesn't change while we back it up. A short proof of concept script can be found here: https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another. iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin. iv) Asyncronous replication.

2012-06-03dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg initMikulas Patocka
After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to the device. Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN. With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl too. The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened. Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd (that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten milliseconds. Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due to a path failure. Such retries should be handled intelligently by the code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write commands). For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which might fail too. It can be determined if the failure happens on the device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.
