2006-02-03[PATCH] md: Assorted little md fixesNeilBrown
- version-1 superblock + The default_bitmap_offset is in sectors, not bytes. + the 'size' field in the superblock is in sectors, not KB - raid0_run should return a negative number on error, not '1' - raid10_read_balance should not return a valid 'disk' number if ->rdev turned out to be NULL - kmem_cache_destroy doesn't like being passed a NULL.

2006-02-03[PATCH] md: Handle overflow of mdu_array_info_t->size betterNeilBrown
mdu_array_info_t->size is 'int', which isn't big enough for the size (in KB of each component in) some arrays. So rather than a random overflow, set size to -1 when it cannot be set correctly. To update aspect on an array, userspace will sometimes: get_array_info change one field set_array_info in this case, we don't want the '-1' in 'size' to change to size, or look like a size change at all. So test for that in update_array_info. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-02-02[PATCH] device-mapper log bitset: fix big endian find_next_zero_bitStefan Bader
This is a fix to the device-mapper-log-bitset-fix-endian patch that switched to ext2_* versions of the set and clear bit functions. The find_next_zero_bit function also has to be the ext2 one. Otherwise the mirror target tries to recover non-existent regions beyond the end of device.

2006-02-02[PATCH] md: Don't remove bitmap from md array when switching to read-onlyNeilBrown
While a read-only array doesn't not really need a bitmap, we should not remove the bitmap when switching an array to read-only because a/ There is no code to re-add the bitmap which switching to read-write, b/ There is insufficient locking - the bitmap could be accessed while it is being removed.

2006-02-02[PATCH] md: Make sure array geometry changes persist with version-1 superblocksNeilBrown

2006-02-02[PATCH] md: Fix device-size updates in mdNeilBrown
As 'array_size' is a 'sector_t', it may overflow inappropriately when shifted 10 bits. So We should cast it to a loff_t first. There are two places with this problem, but the second (in update_raid_disks) isn't needed so just remove it: The only personality that handles ->reshape currently is raid1, and it doesn't change the size of the array. When added for raid5/6, reshape again won't change the size of the array, at least not straight away. This code might be need for reshaping 'linear' but linear->shape, if implemented, should probably do the i_size_write itself.

2006-02-01[PATCH] device-mapper log bitset: fix endianPatrick Caulfield
Clean up the code responsible for the on-disk mirror logs by using the set_le_bit test_le_bit functions of ext2. That makes the BE machines keep the bitmap internally in LE order - it does mean you can't use any other type of operations on the bitmap words but that looks to be OK in this instance. The efficiency tradeoff is very minimal as you would expect for something that ext2 uses. This allows us to remove bits_to_core(), bits_to_disk() and log->disk_bits. Also increment the mirror log disk version transparently to avoid sharing with older kernels that suffered from the 64-bit BE bug.

2006-01-18[PATCH] EDAC: atomic scrub operationsAlan Cox
EDAC requires a way to scrub memory if an ECC error is found and the chipset does not do the work automatically. That means rewriting memory locations atomically with respect to all CPUs _and_ bus masters. That means we can't use atomic_add(foo, 0) as it gets optimised for non-SMP This adds a function to include/asm-foo/atomic.h for the platforms currently supported which implements a scrub of a mapped block. It also adjusts a few other files include order where atomic.h is included before types.h as this now causes an error as atomic_scrub uses u32.

2006-01-08[PATCH] Add block_device_operations.getgeo block device methodChristoph Hellwig
HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.

2006-01-06[PATCH] md: remove personality numbering from mdNeilBrown
md supports multiple different RAID level, each being implemented by a 'personality' (which is often in a separate module). These personalities have fairly artificial 'numbers'. The numbers are use to: 1- provide an index into an array where the various personalities are recorded 2- identify the module (via an alias) which implements are particular personality. Neither of these uses really justify the existence of personality numbers. The array can be replaced by a linked list which is searched (array lookup only happens very rarely). Module identification can be done using an alias based on level rather than 'personality' number. The current 'raid5' modules support two level (4 and 5) but only one personality. This slight awkwardness (which was handled in the mapping from level to personality) can be better handled by allowing raid5 to register 2 personalities. With this change in place, the core md module does not need to have an exhaustive list of all possible personalities, so other personalities can be added independently. This patch also moves the check for chunksize being non-zero into the ->run routines for the personalities that need it, rather than having it in core-md. This has a side effect of allowing 'faulty' and 'linear' not to have a chunk-size set.
