* [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/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 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.

* [PATCH] md: support stripe/offset mode in raid10NeilBrown2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "industry standard" DDF format allows for a stripe/offset layout where data is duplicated on different stripes. e.g. A B C D D A B C E F G H H E F G (columns are drives, rows are stripes, LETTERS are chunks of data). 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | For a while we have had checkpointing of resync. The version-1 superblock allows recovery to be checkpointed as well, and this patch implements that. Due to early carelessness we need to add a feature flag to signal that the recovery_offset field is in use, otherwise older kernels would assume that a partially recovered array is in fact fully recovered.

* [PATCH] dm: prevent removal if openAlasdair G Kergon2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you misuse the device-mapper interface (or there's a bug in your userspace tools) it's possible to end up with 'unlinked' mapped devices that cannot be removed until you reboot (along with uninterruptible processes). 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. It uses a private open_count for this which also lets us remove one of the problematic bdget_disk() calls elsewhere.

* [PATCH] VT binding: Update fbcon to support bindingAntonino A. Daplas2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The control for binding/unbinding is moved from fbcon to the console layer. Thus the fbcon sysfs attributes, attach and detach, are also gone. 1. Add a notifier event that tells fbcon if a framebuffer driver has been unregistered. If no registered driver remains, fbcon will unregister itself from the console layer. 2. Replaced calls to give_up_console() with unregister_con_driver(). 3. Still use take_over_console() instead of register_con_driver() to maintain compatibility 4. Respect the parameter first_fb_vc and last_fb_vc instead of using 0 and MAX_NR_CONSOLES - 1. These parameters are settable by the user. 5. When fbcon is completely unbound from the console layer, fbcon will also release (iow, decrement module reference counts to zero) all fbdev drivers. In other words, a bind or unbind request from the console layer will propagate down to the framebuffer drivers. 6. If fbcon is not bound to the console, it will ignore all notifier events (except driver registration and unregistration) and all sysfs requests.

* [PATCH] VT binding: Add binding/unbinding support for the VT consoleAntonino A. Daplas2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The framebuffer console is now able to dynamically bind and unbind from the VT console layer. Due to the way the VT console layer works, the drivers themselves decide when to bind or unbind. However, it was decided that binding must be controlled, not by the drivers themselves, but by the VT console layer. With this, dynamic binding is possible for all VT console drivers, not just fbcon. Thus, the VT console layer will impose the following to all VT console drivers: - all registered VT console drivers will be entered in a private list - drivers can register themselves to the VT console layer, but they cannot decide when to bind or unbind. (Exception: To maintain backwards compatibility, take_over_console() will automatically bind the driver after registration.) - drivers can remove themselves from the list by unregistering from the VT console layer. A prerequisite for unregistration is that the driver must not be bound. The following functions are new in the vt.c: register_con_driver() - public function, this function adds the VT console driver to an internal list maintained by the VT console bind_con_driver() - private function, it binds the driver to the console take_over_console() is changed to call register_con_driver() followed by a bind_con_driver(). This is the only time drivers can decide when to bind to the VT layer. This is to maintain backwards compatibility. unbind_con_driver() - private function, it unbinds the driver from its console. The vacated consoles will be taken over by the default boot console driver. unregister_con_driver() - public function, removes the driver from the internal list maintained by the VT console. It will only succeed if the driver is currently unbound. con_is_bound() checks if the driver is currently bound or not give_up_console() is just a wrapper to unregister_con_driver(). There are also 3 additional functions meant to be called only by the tty layer for sysfs control: vt_bind() - calls bind_con_driver() vt_unbind() - calls unbind_con_driver() vt_show_drivers() - shows the list of registered drivers Most VT console drivers will continue to work as is, but might have problems when unbinding or binding which should be fixable with minimal changes.

* [PATCH] Detaching fbcon: sdd sysfs class device entry for fbconAntonino A. Daplas2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order for this feature to work, an interface will be needed. The most appropriate is sysfs. However, the framebuffer console has no sysfs entry yet. This will create a sysfs class device entry for fbcon under /sys/class/graphics. Add a class_device entry 'fbcon' under class 'graphics'. Console-specific attributes which where previously under class/graphics/fb[x] are moved to class/graphics/fbcon. These attributes, 'con_rotate' and 'con_rotate_all', are also renamed to 'rotate' and 'rotate_all' respectively.

* [PATCH] proc: don't lock task_structs indefinitelyEric W. Biederman2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every inode in /proc holds a reference to a struct task_struct. If a directory or file is opened and remains open after the the task exits this pinning continues. With 8K stacks on a 32bit machine the amount pinned per file descriptor is about 10K. Normally I would figure a reasonable per user process limit is about 100 processes. With 80 processes, with a 1000 file descriptors each I can trigger the 00M killer on a 32bit kernel, because I have pinned about 800MB of useless data. This patch replaces the struct task_struct pointer with a pointer to a struct task_ref which has a struct task_struct pointer. The so the pinning of dead tasks does not happen. The code now has to contend with the fact that the task may now exit at any time. Which is a little but not muh more complicated. With this change it takes about 1000 processes each opening up 1000 file descriptors before I can trigger the OOM killer. Much better. [mlp@google.com: task_mmu small fixes] Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] proc: Rewrite the proc dentry flush on exit optimizationEric W. Biederman2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To keep the dcache from filling up with dead /proc entries we flush them on process exit. However over the years that code has gotten hairy with a dentry_pointer and a lock in task_struct and misdocumented as a correctness feature. I have rewritten this code to look and see if we have a corresponding entry in the dcache and if so flush it on process exit. This removes the extra fields in the task_struct and allows me to trivially handle the case of a /proc/<tgid>/task/<pid> entry as well as the current /proc/<pid> entries. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Instead of tracking one large page array per dreq/iocb, track pages per nfs_read/write_data, just like the cached I/O path does. An array for pages is already allocated for us by nfs_readdata_alloc() (and the write and commit equivalents). This is also required for adding support for vectored I/O to the NFS direct I/O path. The original reason to pin the user buffer and allocate all the NFS data structures before trying to schedule I/O was to ensure all needed resources are allocated on the client before starting to send requests. This reduces the chance that resource exhaustion on the client will cause a short read or write. On the other hand, for an application making very large application I/O requests, this means that it will be nearly impossible for the application to make forward progress on a resource-limited client. Thus, moving the buffer pinning functionality into the I/O scheduling loops should be good for scalability. The next patch will do the same for NFS data structure allocation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently it is possible for a task to remove its locks at the same time as the NLM recovery thread is trying to recover them. This quickly leads to an Oops. Protect the locks using an rw semaphore while they are being recovered. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Since two different client can present the same pid to the server it is not enough to distinguish locks from different clients.
