* [PATCH] dm table: add target preresumeMilan Broz2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a target preresume hook. It is called before the targets are resumed and if it returns an error the resume gets cancelled. The crypt target will use this to indicate that it is unable to process I/O because no encryption key has been supplied.

* [PATCH] dm: add uevent change event on resumeHannes Reinecke2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Device-mapper devices are not accessible until a 'resume' ioctl has been issued. For userspace to find out when this happens we need to generate an uevent for udev to take appropriate action. As discussed at OLS we should send 'change' events for 'resume'. We can think of no useful purpose served by also having 'suspend' events.

* [PATCH] dm snapshot: fix freeing pending exceptionAlasdair G Kergon2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a snapshot became invalid while there are outstanding pending_exceptions, when pending_complete() processes each one it forgets to remove the corresponding exception from its exception table before freeing it. Fix this by moving the 'out:' label up one statement so that remove_exception() is always called. Then __invalidate_exception() no longer needs to call it and its 'pe' argument become superfluous.

* [PATCH] dm snapshot: fix metadata writing when suspendingMark McLoughlin2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When suspending a device-mapper device, dm_suspend() sleeps until all necessary I/O is completed. This state is triggered by a callback from persistent_commit(). But some I/O can still be issued *after* the callback (to prepare the next metadata area for use if the current one is full). This patch delays the callback until after that I/O is complete.

* [PATCH] dm: support ioctls on mapped devices: fix with fake fileMilan Broz2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new ioctl code passes the wrong file pointer to the underlying device. No file pointer is available so make a temporary fake one. ioctl_by_bdev() does set_fs(KERNEL_DS) so it's for ioctls originating within the kernel and unsuitable here. We are processing ioctls that originated in userspace and mapping them to different devices. Fixing the existing callers that pass a NULL file struct and consolidating the fake_file users are separate matters to solve in later patches.
