* [PATCH] md: tidy up daemon stop/start code in md/bitmap.cNeilBrown2005-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | The bitmap code used to have two daemons, so there is some 'common' start/stop code. But now there is only one, so the common code is just noise. This patch tidies this up somewhat.

* [PATCH] md: ensure bitmap_writeback_daemon handles shutdown properly.NeilBrown2005-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | mddev->bitmap gets clearred before the writeback daemon is stopped. So the write_back daemon needs to be careful not to dereference the 'bitmap' if it is NULL.

* [PATCH] md: fix bitmap/read_sb_page so that it handles errors properly.NeilBrown2005-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | read_sb_page() assumed that if sync_page_io fails, the device would be marked faultly. However it isn't. So in the face of error, read_sb_page would loop forever. Redo the logic so that this cannot happen. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] md: do not set mddev->bitmap until bitmap is fully initialisedNeilBrown2005-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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. This requires freeing the bitmap inside bitmap_create if creation failed part-way through.

* [PATCH] md: add write-behind support for md/raid1NeilBrown2005-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [PATCH] md: improve handling of bitmap initialisation.NeilBrown2005-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | When we find a 'stale' bitmap, possibly because it is new, we should just assume every bit needs to be set, but rather base the setting of bits on the current state of the array (degraded and recovery_cp).

* [PATCH] md: make sure md bitmap updates are flushed when array is stopped.NeilBrown2005-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | The recent change to never ignore the bitmap, revealed that the bitmap isn't begin flushed properly when an array is stopped. We call bitmap_daemon_work three times as there is a three-stage pipeline for flushing updates to the bitmap file.

* [PATCH] md: always honour md bitmap being read from diskNeilBrown2005-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [PATCH] md/raid1: clear bitmap when fullsync completesNeilBrown2005-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to be careful differentiating between a resync of a complete array, in which we can clear the bitmap, and a resync of a degraded array, in which we cannot. This patch cleans all that up.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | writeback Due to the use of write-behind, it is possible for md to write a page to the bitmap file that is still completing writeback. This is not allowed.

* [PATCH] md: allow md intent bitmap to be stored near the superblock.NeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | This provides an alternate to storing the bitmap in a separate file. The bitmap can be stored at a given offset from the superblock. Obviously the creator of the array must make sure this doesn't intersect with data.... After is good for version-0.90 superblocks.

* [PATCH] md: don't skip bitmap pages due to lack of bit that we just cleared.NeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When looking for pages that need cleaning we skip pages that don't have BITMAP_PAGE_CLEAN set. But if it is the 'current' page we will have cleared that bit ourselves, so skipping it is wrong. So: move the 'skip this page' inside 'if page != lastpage'. Also fold call of file_page_offset into the one place where the value (bit) is used.

* [PATCH] md: enable the bitmap write-back daemon and wait for it.NeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we don't wait for updates to the bitmap to be flushed to disk properly. The infrastructure all there, but it isn't being used.... A separate kernel thread (bitmap_writeback_daemon) is needed to wait for each page as we cannot get callbacks when a page write completes.

* [PATCH] md: make sure md bitmap is cleared on a clean start.NeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As the array-wide clean bit (in the superblock) is set more agressively than the bits in the bitmap are cleared, it is possible to have an array which is clean despite there being bits set in the bitmap. These bits will currently never get cleared, as they can only be cleared by a resync pass, which never happens. No, when reading bits from disk, be aware of whether the whole array is known to be in sync, and act accordingly.

* [PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent loggingNeilBrown2005-06-21
With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.
