* block: Allow empty integrity profileMartin K. Petersen2009-01-30
| | | | | | | | | Allow a block device to allocate and register an integrity profile without providing a template. This allows DM to preallocate a profile to avoid deadlocks during table reconfiguration. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

* block: Switch blk_integrity_compare from bdev to gendiskMartin K. Petersen2008-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | The DM and MD integrity support now depends on being able to use gendisks instead of block_devices when comparing integrity profiles. Change function parameters accordingly. Also update comparison logic so that two NULL profiles are a valid configuration. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* block: Fix double put in blk_integrity_unregisterMartin K. Petersen2008-10-09
| | | | | | | | | - kobject_del already puts the parent. - Set integrity profile to NULL to prevent stale data. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* block: implement and use {disk|part}_to_dev()Tejun Heo2008-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | Implement {disk|part}_to_dev() and use them to access generic device instead of directly dereferencing {disk|part}->dev. To make sure no user is left behind, rename generic devices fields to __dev. This is in preparation of unifying partition 0 handling with other partitions.

* block: Block layer data integrity supportMartin K. Petersen2008-07-03
Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along with the I/O. This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and requests that have this extra information attached. See Documentation/block/data-integrity.txt for more information. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
