| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows the state of an md/array to be directly controlled via sysfs and adds the ability to stop and array without tearing it down. Array states/settings: clear No devices, no size, no level Equivalent to STOP_ARRAY ioctl inactive May have some settings, but array is not active all IO results in error When written, doesn't tear down array, but just stops it suspended (not supported yet) All IO requests will block. The array can be reconfigured. Writing this, if accepted, will block until array is quiescent readonly no resync can happen. no superblocks get written. write requests fail read-auto like readonly, but behaves like 'clean' on a write request. clean - no pending writes, but otherwise active. When written to inactive array, starts without resync If a write request arrives then if metadata is known, mark 'dirty' and switch to 'active'. if not known, block and switch to write-pending If written to an active array that has pending writes, then fails. active fully active: IO and resync can be happening. When written to inactive array, starts with resync write-pending (not supported yet) clean, but writes are blocked waiting for 'active' to be written. active-idle like active, but no writes have been seen for a while (100msec).

* [PATCH] md: Don't write dirty/clean update to spares - leave them aloneNeilBrown2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - record the 'event' count on each individual device (they might sometimes be slightly different now) - add a new value for 'sb_dirty': '3' means that the super block only needs to be updated to record a clean<->dirty transition. - Prefer odd event numbers for dirty states and even numbers for clean states - Using all the above, don't update the superblock on a spare device if the update is just doing a clean-dirty transition. To accomodate this, a transition from dirty back to clean might now decrement the events counter if nothing else has changed. The net effect of this is that spare drives will not see any IO requests during normal running of the array, so they can go to sleep if that is what they want to do.

* [PATCH] md: Allow re-add to work on array without bitmapsNeilBrown2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an array has a bitmap, a device can be removed and re-added and only blocks changes since the removal (as recorded in the bitmap) will be resynced. It should be possible to do a similar thing to arrays without bitmaps. i.e. if a device is removed and re-added and *no* changes have been made in the interim, then the add should not require a resync. This patch allows that option. This means that when assembling an array one device at a time (e.g. during device discovery) the array can be enabled read-only as soon as enough devices are available, but extra devices can still be added without causing a resync.

* [PATCH] md: Change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks-fixNeilBrown2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix problems with new bmap based access to bitmap files. 1/ When not using a file based bitmap, attach a NULL list of buffers to each page so the common free_buffer routine can cope. 2/ Use submit_bh to read as well as write, rather than vfs_read. This makes read and write more symetric. 3/ sync the file before reading, to ensure that the page cache has no dirty pages that might get written out later.

* [PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocksNeilBrown2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

* [PATCH] md/bitmap: remove unnecessary page reference manipulations from ↵NeilBrown2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | md/bitmap code md/bitmap gets a collection of pages representing the bitmap when it initialises the bitmap, and puts all the references when discarding the bitmap. It also occasionally takes extra references without any good reason, and sometimes drops them ... though it doesn't always drop them, which can result in a memory leak.

* [PATCH] md/bitmap: remove bitmap writeback daemonNeilBrown2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | md/bitmap currently has a separate thread to wait for writes to the bitmap file to complete (as we cannot get a callback on that action). However this isn't needed as bitmap_unplug is called from process context and waits for the writeback thread to do it's work. The same result can be achieved by doing the waiting directly in bitmap_unplug.

This is similar to raid10's 'far' mode, but not quite the same. So enhance 'far' mode with a 'far/offset' option which follows the layout of DDFs stripe/offset.

This patch prevents you from removing a device that is still open. It introduces dm_lock_for_deletion() which is called when a device is about to be removed to ensure that nothing has it open and nothing further can open it.
