2005-09-09[PATCH] md: fix raid10 assembly when too many devices are missingNeilBrown
If you try to assemble an array with too many missing devices, raid10 will now reject the attempt, instead of allowing it.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: really get sb_size setting right in all casesNeilBrown
There was another case where sb_size wasn't being set, so instead do the sensible thing and set if when filling in the content of a superblock. That ensures that whenever we write a superblock, the sb_size MUST be set.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: make sure the new 'sb_size' is set properly device added without ↵NeilBrown
pre-existing superblock. There are two ways to add devices to an md/raid array. It can have superblock written to it, and then given to the md driver, which will read the superblock (the new way) or md can be told (through SET_ARRAY_INFO) the shape of the array, and the told about individual drives, and md will create the required superblock (the old way). The newly introduced sb_size was only set for drives being added the new way, not the old ways.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: choose better default offset for bitmap.NeilBrown
On reflection, a better default location for hot-adding bitmaps with version-1 superblocks is immediately after the superblock.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: add write-intent-bitmap support to raid5NeilBrown
Most awkward part of this is delaying write requests until bitmap updates have been flushed. To achieve this, we have a sequence number (seq_flush) which is incremented each time the raid5 is unplugged. If the raid thread notices that this has changed, it flushes bitmap changes, and assigned the value of seq_flush to seq_write. When a write request arrives, it is given the number from seq_write, and that write request may not complete until seq_flush is larger than the saved seq number. We have a new queue for storing stripes which are waiting for a bitmap flush and an extra flag for stripes to record if the write was 'degraded' and so should not clear the a bit in the bitmap.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: limit size of sb read/written to appropriate amountNeilBrown
version-1 superblocks are not (normally) 4K long, and can be of variable size. Writing the full 4K can cause corruption (but only in non-default configurations).

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: allow hot-adding devices to arrays with non-persistant superblocks.NeilBrown
It is possibly (and occasionally useful) to have a raid1 without persistent superblocks. The code in add_new_disk for adding a device to such an array always tries to read a superblock. This will obviously fail. So do the appropriate test and call md_import_device with appropriate args.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: do not set mddev->bitmap until bitmap is fully initialisedNeilBrown
When hot-adding a bitmap, bitmap_daemon_work could get called while the bitmap is being created, so don't set mddev->bitmap until the bitmap is ready.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: support md/linear array with components greater than 2 terabytes.NeilBrown
linear currently uses division by the size of the smallest componenet device to find which device a request goes to. If that smallest device is larger than 2 terabytes, then the division will not work on some systems. So we introduce a pre-shift, and take care not to make the hash table too large, much like the code in raid0. Also get rid of conf->nr_zones, which is not needed.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: add write-behind support for md/raid1NeilBrown
If a device is flagged 'WriteMostly' and the array has a bitmap, and the bitmap superblock indicates that write_behind is allowed, then write_behind is enabled for WriteMostly devices. Write requests will be acknowledges as complete to the caller (via b_end_io) when all non-WriteMostly devices have completed the write, but will not be cleared from the bitmap until all devices complete. This requires memory allocation to make a local copy of the data being written. If there is insufficient memory, then we fall-back on normal write semantics.

Both file-bitmaps and superblock bitmaps are supported. If you add a bitmap file on the array device, you lose. This introduces a 'default_bitmap_offset' field in mddev, as the ioctl used for adding a superblock bitmap doesn't have room for giving an offset. Later, this value will be setable via sysfs.

2005-09-09[PATCH] md: improve handling of bitmap initialisation.NeilBrown

2005-09-09[PATCH] Update PCI IOMEM allocation startDaniel Ritz
This fixes the problem with "Averatec 6240 pcmcia_socket0: unable to apply power", which was due to the CardBus IOMEM register region being allocated at an address that was actually inside the RAM window that had been reserved for video frame-buffers in an UMA setup. The BIOS _should_ have marked that region reserved in the e820 memory descriptor tables, but did not. It is fixed by rounding up the default starting address of PCI memory allocations, so that we leave a bigger gap after the final known memory location. The amount of rounding depends on how big the unused memory gap is that we can allocate IOMEM from. Based on example code by Linus.

2005-09-09[PATCH] FUSE: don't allow restarting of system callsMiklos Szeredi
This patch removes ability to interrupt and restart operations while there hasn't been any side-effect. The reason: applications. There are some apps it seems that generate signals at a fast rate. This means, that if the operation cannot make enough progress between two signals, it will be restarted for ever. This bug actually manifested itself with 'krusader' trying to open a file for writing under sshfs. Thanks to Eduard Czimbalmos for the report. The problem can be solved just by making open() uninterruptible, because in this case it was the truncate operation that slowed down the progress. But it's better to solve this by simply not allowing interrupts at all (except SIGKILL), because applications don't expect file operations to be interruptible anyway. As an added bonus the code is simplified somewhat. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
