* dm snapshot: move cow ref from exception store to snap coreMike Snitzer2009-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Store the reference to the snapshot cow device in the core snapshot code instead of each exception store. It can be accessed through the new function dm_snap_cow(). Exception stores should each now maintain a reference to their parent snapshot struct. This is cleaner and makes part of the forthcoming snapshot merge code simpler.

* dm snapshot: allow chunk size to be less than page sizeMikulas Patocka2009-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow the snapshot chunk size to be smaller than the page size The code is now capable of handling this due to some previous fixes and enhancements. As the page size varies between computers, prior to this patch, the chunk size of a snapshot dictated which machines could read it: Snapshots created on one machine might not be readable on another.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use unsigned integer chunk size. Maximum chunk size is 512kB, there won't ever be need to use 4GB chunk size, so the number can be 32-bit.

* dm snapshot: fix on disk chunk size validationMikulas Patocka2009-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix some problems seen in the chunk size processing when activating a pre-existing snapshot. For a new snapshot, the chunk size can either be supplied by the creator or a default value can be used. For an existing snapshot, the chunk size in the snapshot header on disk should always be used. If someone attempts to load an existing snapshot and has the 'default chunk size' option set, the kernel uses its default value even when it is incorrect for the snapshot being loaded. This patch ensures the correct on-disk value is always used. Secondly, when the code does use the chunk size stored on the disk it is prudent to revalidate it, so the code can exit cleanly if it got corrupted as happened in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461506 .

* block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_sizeMartin K. Petersen2009-05-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device. With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain 512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size and the logical ditto. This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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().

* [PATCH] dm snapshot: unify chunk_sizeAlasdair G Kergon2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Persistent snapshots currently store a private copy of the chunk size. Userspace also supplies the chunk size when loading a snapshot. Ensure consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place instead of two. Currently the two sizes will differ if the chunk size supplied by userspace does not match the chunk size an existing snapshot actually uses. Amongst other problems, this causes an incorrect 'percentage full' to be reported. The patch ensures consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place, removing it from struct pstore. Some initialisation is delayed until the correct chunk_size is known. If read_header() discovers that the wrong chunk size was supplied, the 'area' buffer (which the header already got read into) is reinitialised to the correct size.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
