      block: don't depend on consecutive minor space · f331c029
      Tejun Heo authored
      * Implement disk_devt() and part_devt() and use them to directly
        access devt instead of computing it from ->major and ->first_minor.
      
        Note that all references to ->major and ->first_minor outside of
        block layer is used to determine devt of the disk (the part0) and as
        ->major and ->first_minor will continue to represent devt for the
        disk, converting these users aren't strictly necessary.  However,
        convert them for consistency.
      
      * Implement disk_max_parts() to avoid directly deferencing
        genhd->minors.
      
      * Update bdget_disk() such that it doesn't assume consecutive minor
        space.
      
      * Move devt computation from register_disk() to add_disk() and make it
        the only one (all other usages use the initially determined value).
      
      These changes clean up the code and will help disk->part dereference
      fix and extended block device numbers.

      dm: stripe enhanced status return · 4f7f5c67
      Brian Wood authored
      This patch adds additional information to the status line. It is added at the
      end of the returned text so it will not interfere with existing
      implementations using this data. The addition of this information will allow
      for a common return interface to match that returned with the dm-raid1.c
      status line (with Jonathan Brassow's patches).
      
      Here is a sample of what is returned with a mirror "status" call:
      isw_eeaaabgfg_mirror: 0 488390920 mirror 2 8:16 8:32 3727/3727 1 AA 1 core
      
      Here's what's returned with this patch for a stripe "status" call:
      isw_dheeijjdej_stripe: 0 976783872 striped 2 8:16 8:32 1 AA

      dm: stripe trigger event on failure · a25eb944
      Brian Wood authored
      This patch adds the stripe_end_io function to process errors that might
      occur after an IO operation. As part of this there are a number of
      enhancements made to record and trigger events:
      
      - New atomic variable in struct stripe to record the number of
      errors each stripe volume device has experienced (could be used
      later with uevents to report back directly to userspace)
      
      - New workqueue/work struct setup to process the trigger_event function
      
      - New end_io function. It is here that testing for BIO error conditions
      take place. It determines the exact stripe that cause the error,
      records this in the new atomic variable, and calls the queue_work() function
      
      - New trigger_event function to process failure events. This
      calls dm_table_event()

      [PATCH] dm stripe: Fix bounds · 8ba32fde
      Kevin Corry authored
      The dm-stripe target currently does not enforce that the size of a stripe
      device be a multiple of the chunk-size.  Under certain conditions, this can
      lead to I/O requests going off the end of an underlying device.  This
      test-case shows one example.
      
      echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 0" | dmsetup create linear0
      echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 100" | dmsetup create linear1
      echo "0 200 striped 2 32 /dev/mapper/linear0 0 /dev/mapper/linear1 0" | \
         dmsetup create stripe0
      dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/stripe0 bs=1k
      
      This will produce the output:
      dd: writing '/dev/mapper/stripe0': Input/output error
      97+0 records in
      96+0 records out
      
      And in the kernel log will be:
      attempt to access beyond end of device
      dm-0: rw=0, want=104, limit=100
      
      The patch will check that the table size is a multiple of the stripe
      chunk-size when the table is created, which will prevent the above striped
      device from being created.
      
      This should not affect tools like LVM or EVMS, since in all the cases I can
      think of, striped devices are always created with the sizes being a
      multiple of the chunk-size.
      
      The size of a stripe device must be a multiple of its chunk-size.
      
      (akpm: that typecast is quite gratuitous)

      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!
