2011-09-12block: remove support for bio remapping from ->make_requestChristoph Hellwig
There is very little benefit in allowing to let a ->make_request instance update the bios device and sector and loop around it in __generic_make_request when we can archive the same through calling generic_make_request from the driver and letting the loop in generic_make_request handle it. Note that various drivers got the return value from ->make_request and returned non-zero values for errors.

2011-08-23loop: always allow userspace partitions and optionally support automatic ↵Kay Sievers
scanning Automatic partition scanning can be requested individually per loop device during its setup by setting LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN. By default, no partition tables are scanned. Userspace can now always add and remove partitions from all loop devices, regardless if the in-kernel partition scanner is enabled or not. The needed partition minor numbers are allocated from the extended minors space, the main loop device numbers will continue to match the loop minors, regardless of the number of partitions used. # grep . /sys/class/block/loop1/loop/* /sys/block/loop1/loop/autoclear:0 /sys/block/loop1/loop/backing_file:/home/kay/data/stuff/part.img /sys/block/loop1/loop/offset:0 /sys/block/loop1/loop/partscan:1 /sys/block/loop1/loop/sizelimit:0 # ls -l /dev/loop* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 0 Aug 14 20:22 /dev/loop0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 1 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 0 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop1p1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 1 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop1p2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 99 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop99 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 2 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop99p1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 3 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop99p2 crw------T 1 root root 10, 237 Aug 14 20:22 /dev/loop-control Cc: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@gnu.org> Acked-By: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-08-22xen-blkback: Don't disconnect backend until state switched to XenbusStateClosed.Joe Jin
When do block-attach/block-detach test with below steps, umount hangs in the guest. Furthermore shutdown ends up being stuck when umounting file-systems. 1. start guest. 2. attach new block device by xm block-attach in Dom0. 3. mount new disk in guest. 4. execute xm block-detach to detach the block device in dom0 until timeout 5. Any request to the disk will hung. Root cause: This issue is caused when setting backend device's state to 'XenbusStateClosing', which sends to the frontend the XenbusStateClosing notification. When frontend receives the notification it tries to release the disk in blkfront_closing(), but at that moment the disk is still in use by guest, so frontend refuses to close. Specifically it sets the disk state to XenbusStateClosing and sends the notification to backend - when backend receives the event, it disconnects the vbd from real device, and sets the vbd device state to XenbusStateClosing. The backend disconnects the real device/file, and any IO requests to the disk in guest will end up in ether, leaving disk DEAD and set to XenbusStateClosing. When the guest wants to disconnect the disk, umount will hang on blkif_release()->xlvbd_release_gendisk() as it is unable to send any IO to the disk, which prevents clean system shutdown. Solution: Don't disconnect backend until frontend state switched to XenbusStateClosed.

2011-08-19loop: add discard support for loop devicesLukas Czerner
This commit adds discard support for loop devices. Discard is usually supported by SSD and thinly provisioned devices as a method for reclaiming unused space. This is no different than trying to reclaim back space which is not used by the file system on the image, but it still occupies space on the host file system. We can do the reclamation on file system which does support hole punching. So when discard request gets to the loop driver we can translate that to punch a hole to the underlying file, hence reclaim the free space. This is very useful for trimming down the size of the image to only what is really used by the file system on that image. Fstrim may be used for that purpose. It has been tested on ext4, xfs and btrfs with the image file systems ext4, ext3, xfs and btrfs. ext4, or ext6 image on ext4 file system has some problems but it seems that ext4 punch hole implementation is somewhat flawed and it is unrelated to this commit. Also this is a very good method of validating file systems punch hole implementation. Note that when encryption is used, discard support is disabled, because using it might leak some information useful for possible attacker.

2011-07-31loop: add management interface for on-demand device allocationKay Sievers
Loop devices today have a fixed pre-allocated number of usually 8. The number can only be changed at module init time. To find a free device to use, /dev/loop%i needs to be scanned, and all devices need to be opened until a free one is possibly found. This adds a new /dev/loop-control device node, that allows to dynamically find or allocate a free device, and to add and remove loop devices from the running system: LOOP_CTL_ADD adds a specific device. Arg is the number of the device. It returns the device i or a negative error code. LOOP_CTL_REMOVE removes a specific device, Arg is the number the device. It returns the device i or a negative error code. LOOP_CTL_GET_FREE finds the next unbound device or allocates a new one. No arg is given. It returns the device i or a negative error code. The loop kernel module gets automatically loaded when /dev/loop-control is accessed the first time. The alias specified in the module, instructs udev to create this 'dead' device node, even when the module is not loaded. Example: cfd = open("/dev/loop-control", O_RDWR); # add a new specific loop device err = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_ADD, devnr); # remove a specific loop device err = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_REMOVE, devnr); # find or allocate a free loop device to use devnr = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_GET_FREE); sprintf(loopname, "/dev/loop%i", devnr); ffd = open("backing-file", O_RDWR); lfd = open(loopname, O_RDWR); err = ioctl(lfd, LOOP_SET_FD, ffd); Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-06-30drbd: we should write meta data updates with FLUSH FUALars Ellenberg
We used to write these with BIO_RW_BARRIER aka REQ_HARDBARRIER (unless disabled in the configuration). The correct semantic now would be to write with FLUSH/FUA. For example, with activity log transactions, FUA alone is not enough, we need the corresponding bitmap update (and all related application updates) on stable storage as well.

data socket If we have an asymetrically congested network, we may send P_PING, but due to congestion, the corresponding P_PING_ACK would time out, and we would drop a (congested, but otherwise) healthy connection ("PingAck did not arrive in time.")

2011-06-30drbd: account bitmap IO during resync as resync-(related-)-ioLars Ellenberg
If we have a good resync rate, we will frequently update the on-disk bitmap, which, if not accounted for as resync io, may let an otherwise idle device appear to be "busy", and cause us to throttle resync.

2011-06-30drbd: don't cond_resched_lock with IRQs disabledLars Ellenberg
The last commit, drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receive, introduced a cond_resched_lock(), where the lock in question is taken with irqs disabled. As we must not schedule with IRQs disabled, and cond_resched_lock_irq() does not exist, yet, we re-aquire the spin_lock_irq() for each bitmap page processed in turn.

2011-06-30drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receiveLars Ellenberg
During bitmap exchange, when using the RLE bitmap compression scheme, we have a code path that can set the whole bitmap at once. To avoid holding spin_lock_irq() for too long, we used to lock out other bitmap modifications during bitmap exchange by other means, and then, knowing we have exclusive access to the bitmap, modify it without the spinlock, and with IRQs enabled. Since we now allow local IO to continue, potentially setting additional bits during the bitmap receive phase, this is no longer true, and we get uncoordinated updates of bitmap members, causing bm_set to no longer accurately reflect the total number of set bits. To actually see this, you'd need to have a large bitmap, use RLE bitmap compression, and have busy IO during sync handshake and bitmap exchange. Fix this by taking the spin_lock_irq() in this code path as well, but calling cond_resched_lock() after each page worth of bits processed.
