2005-08-23[PATCH] md: make sure resync gets started when array starts.NeilBrown
We weren't actually waking up the md thread after setting MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED when assembling an array, so it is possible to lose a race and not actually start resync. So add a call to md_wakeup_thread, and while we are at it, remove all the "if (mddev->thread)" guards as md_wake_thread does its own checking.

2005-08-18[PATCH] md: make sure mddev->bitmap_offset gets cleared between array ↵NeilBrown
instantiations. ... otherwise we might try to load a bitmap from an array which hasn't one. The bug is that if you create an array with an internal bitmap, shut it down, and then create an array with the same md device, the md drive will assume it should have a bitmap too. As the array can be created with a different md device, it is mostly an inconvenience. I'm pretty sure there is no risk of data corruption.

2005-08-04[PATCH] md: yet another attempt to get bitmap-based resync to do the right ↵NeilBrown
thing in all cases... Firstly, R1BIO_Degraded was being set in a number of places in the resync code, but is never used there, so get rid of those settings. Then: When doing a resync, we want to clear the bit in the bitmap iff the array will be non-degraded when the sync has completed. However the current code would clear the bitmap if the array was non-degraded when the resync *started*, which obviously isn't right (it is for 'resync' but not for 'recovery' - i.e. rebuilding a failed drive). This patch calculated 'still_degraded' and uses the to tell bitmap_start_sync whether this sync should clear the corresponding bit.

2005-08-04[PATCH] md: always honour md bitmap being read from diskNeilBrown
The code currently will ignore the bitmap if the array seem to be in-sync. This is wrong if the array is degraded, and probably wrong anyway. If the bitmap says some chunks are not in in-sync, and the superblock says everything IS in sync, then something is clearly wrong, and it is safer to trust the bitmap.

2005-07-28[PATCH] device-mapper: fix md->lock deadlocks in coreAlasdair G Kergon
This patch is an attempt to fix deadlocks discovered in the core dm. The problems boil down to md->lock having to be held in too many places, so I've split it into two: md->suspend_lock and md->io_lock. suspend_lock is now held throughout dm_suspended() as well as dm_resume() and dm_swap_table() so that these functions cannot run concurrently: there's no requirement for that and it added complexity. DMF_FS_LOCKED becomes redundant: DMF_SUSPENDED provides adequate protection.

Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN).

2005-06-21[PATCH] md: allow md to update multiple superblocks in parallel.NeilBrown
currently, md updates all superblocks (one on each device) in series. It waits for one write to complete before starting the next. This isn't a big problem as superblock updates don't happen that often. However it is neater to do it in parallel, and if the drives in the array have gone to "sleep" after a period of idleness, then waking them is parallel is faster (and someone else should be worrying about power drain). Futher, we will need parallel superblock updates for a future patch which keeps the intent-logging bitmap near the superblock. Also remove the silly code that retired superblock updates 100 times.

2005-06-21[PATCH] md: fix deadlock due to md thread processing delayed requests.NeilBrown
Before completing a 'write' the md superblock might need to be updated. This is best done by the md_thread. The current code schedules this up and queues the write request for later handling by the md_thread. However some personalities (Raid5/raid6) will deadlock if the md_thread tries to submit requests to its own array. So this patch changes things so the processes submitting the request waits for the superblock to be written and then submits the request itself.
