* [PATCH] md: allow md to update multiple superblocks in parallel.NeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | currently, md updates all superblocks (one on each device) in series. It waits for one write to complete before starting the next. This isn't a big problem as superblock updates don't happen that often. However it is neater to do it in parallel, and if the drives in the array have gone to "sleep" after a period of idleness, then waking them is parallel is faster (and someone else should be worrying about power drain). Futher, we will need parallel superblock updates for a future patch which keeps the intent-logging bitmap near the superblock. Also remove the silly code that retired superblock updates 100 times.

* [PATCH] md: fix deadlock due to md thread processing delayed requests.NeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before completing a 'write' the md superblock might need to be updated. This is best done by the md_thread. The current code schedules this up and queues the write request for later handling by the md_thread. However some personalities (Raid5/raid6) will deadlock if the md_thread tries to submit requests to its own array. So this patch changes things so the processes submitting the request waits for the superblock to be written and then submits the request itself.

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'.

* [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.

* [PATCH] md: improve the interface to sync_requestNeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1/ change the return value (which is number-of-sectors synced) from 'int' to 'sector_t'. The number of sectors is usually easily small enough to fit in an int, but if resync needs to abort, it may want to return the total number of remaining sectors, which could be large. Also errors cannot be returned as negative numbers now, so use 0 instead 2/ Add a 'skipped' return parameter to allow the array to report that it skipped the sectors. This allows md to take this into account in the speed calculations. Currently there is no important skipping, but the bitmap-based-resync that is coming will use this.

* [PATCH] md: improve locking on 'safemode' and move superblock writesNeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When md marks the superblock dirty before a write, it calls generic_make_request (to write the superblock) from within generic_make_request (to write the first dirty block), which could cause problems later. With this patch, the superblock write is always done by the helper thread, and write request are delayed until that write completes. Also, the locking around marking the array dirty and writing the superblock is improved to avoid possible races.

* [PATCH] md: merge md_enter_safemode into md_check_recoveryNeilBrown2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | md_enter_safemode checks if it is time to mark the md superblock as 'clean'. i.e. if all writes have completed and a suitable delay has passed. This is currently called from md_handle_safemode which in-turn is called (almost) every time md_check_recovery is called, and from the end of md_do_sync which causes the mddev->thread to run, which will always call md_check_recovery as well. So it doesn't need to be a separate function and fits quite well into md_check_recovery. The "almost" is because multipathd calls md_check_recovery but not md_handle_safemode. This is OK because the code from md_enter_safemode is a no-op if mddev->safemode == 0, which it always is for a multipathd (providing we don't allow it to be set to 2 on a signal...)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when going from vgacon to fbcon the VT screenbuffer are often different sizes.

If the framebuffer console new VT screen buffer is greater than the VGA text memory size then we get some of the VGA BIOS contents as well.

* [PATCH] s1d13xxxfb linkage fixAndrew Morton2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | s1d13xxxfb_remove() is referenced from s1d13xxxfb_probe(), which is marked __devinit(). So s1d13xxxfb_remove() cannot be marked __devexit. Does this all make sense? Clearly the __devexit section will still be in core when the __devinit code is run, if the driver was loaded as a module. But I suppose that if the driver is statically linked, the __devexit section might be dropped early in boot. Still, we wouldn't drop __devexit prior to initcall completion, at which point the __devinit code has all been run anyway. verdict: this code was legal and made sense. Is this a generic problem, or an arm-specific problem?

* [PATCH] ibmasm driver: fix race in command refcount logicMax Asbock2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a race in the command reference counting logic by putting spinlocks around kobject_put() in the command_put function. - Also added debug messages. - Changed a memcpy to memcpy_fromio since we are reading from io space.
