Linux supports some optional features, but it should notify the BIOS about them via the _OSI method. Currently Linux doesn't notify any, which might make such features not work because the BIOS doesn't know about them.

THERMAL_HWMON is implemented inside the thermal_sys driver and has no effect on drivers implementing thermal zones, so they shouldn't see anything related to it in <linux/thermal.h>. Making the THERMAL_HWMON implementation fully internal has two advantages beyond the cleaner design: * This avoids rebuilding all thermal drivers if the THERMAL_HWMON implementation changes, or if CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON gets enabled or disabled. * This avoids breaking the thermal kABI in these cases too, which should make distributions happy. The only drawback I can see is slightly higher memory fragmentation, as the number of kzalloc() calls will increase by one per thermal zone. But I doubt it will be a problem in practice, as I've never seen a system with more than two thermal zones.

It's about time to revert 16d75239 ("thermal: Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n"). Anybody running a kernel >= 2.6.40 would also be running a recent enough version of lm-sensors. Actually having CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON is pretty convenient so instead of dropping it, we keep it but hide it.

DM has always advertised both REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA flush capabilities regardless of whether or not a given DM device's underlying devices also advertised a need for them. Block's flush-merge changes from 2.6.39 have proven to be more costly for DM devices. Performance regressions have been reported even when DM's underlying devices do not advertise that they have a write cache. Fix the performance regressions by configuring a DM device's flushing capabilities based on those of the underlying devices' capabilities.

Add optional parameter field to dmcrypt table and support "allow_discards" option. Discard requests bypass crypt queue processing. Bio is simple remapped to underlying device. Note that discard will be never enabled by default because of security consequences. It is up to the administrator to enable it for encrypted devices. (Note that userspace cryptsetup does not understand new optional parameters yet. Support for this will come later. Until then, you should use 'dmsetup' to enable and disable this.)

Jonathan Brassow authored
Add the ability to parse and use metadata devices to dm-raid. Although not strictly required, without the metadata devices, many features of RAID are unavailable. They are used to store a superblock and bitmap. The role, or position in the array, of each device must be recorded in its superblock. This is to help with fault handling, array reshaping, and sanity checks. RAID 4/5/6 devices must be loaded in a specific order: in this way, the 'array_position' field helps validate the correctness of the mapping when it is loaded. It can be used during reshaping to identify which devices are added/removed. Fault handling is impossible without this field. For example, when a device fails it is recorded in the superblock. If this is a RAID1 device and the offending device is removed from the array, there must be a way during subsequent array assembly to determine that the failed device was the one removed. This is done by correlating the 'array_position' field and the bit-field variable 'failed_devices'.

If we write a full chunk in the snapshot, skip reading the origin device because the whole chunk will be overwritten anyway. This patch changes the snapshot write logic when a full chunk is written. In this case: 1. allocate the exception 2. dispatch the bio (but don't report the bio completion to device mapper) 3. write the exception record 4. report bio completed Callbacks must be done through the kcopyd thread, because callbacks must not race with each other. So we create two new functions: dm_kcopyd_prepare_callback: allocate a job structure and prepare the callback. (This function must not be called from interrupt context.) dm_kcopyd_do_callback: submit callback. (This function may be called from interrupt context.) Performance test (on snapshots with 4k chunk size): without the patch: non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 17.7MB/s direct-io sequential write (dd): 20.9MB/s non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.44s with the patch: non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 26.5MB/s direct-io sequential write (dd): 33.2MB/s non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.27s Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge function returns. When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots which can split them if necessary. Snapshot I/O may be significantly fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance. Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't provide a merge function. After the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't provide a merge function. The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be remapped. Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge function. Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes, it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the filesystem on snapshot store. If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function (such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.
