* [PATCH] md: remove personality numbering from mdNeilBrown2006-01-062-55/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | md supports multiple different RAID level, each being implemented by a 'personality' (which is often in a separate module). These personalities have fairly artificial 'numbers'. The numbers are use to: 1- provide an index into an array where the various personalities are recorded 2- identify the module (via an alias) which implements are particular personality. Neither of these uses really justify the existence of personality numbers. The array can be replaced by a linked list which is searched (array lookup only happens very rarely). Module identification can be done using an alias based on level rather than 'personality' number. The current 'raid5' modules support two level (4 and 5) but only one personality. This slight awkwardness (which was handled in the mapping from level to personality) can be better handled by allowing raid5 to register 2 personalities. With this change in place, the core md module does not need to have an exhaustive list of all possible personalities, so other personalities can be added independently. This patch also moves the check for chunksize being non-zero into the ->run routines for the personalities that need it, rather than having it in core-md. This has a side effect of allowing 'faulty' and 'linear' not to have a chunk-size set.

* [PATCH] md: raid10 read-error handling - resync and read-onlyNeilBrown2006-01-061-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add in correct read-error handling for resync and read-only situations. When read-only, we don't over-write, so we need to mark the failed drive in the r10_bio so we don't re-try it. During resync, we always read all blocks, so if there is a read error, we simply over-write it with the good block that we found (assuming we found one). Note that the recovery case still isn't handled in an interesting way. There is nothing useful to do for the 2-copies case. If there are 3 or more copies, then we could try reading from one of the non-missing copies, but this is a bit complicated and very rarely would be used, so I'm leaving it for now.

* [PATCH] md: fix up some rdev rcu locking in raid5/6NeilBrown2006-01-061-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is this "FIXME" comment with a typo in it!! that been annoying me for days, so I just had to remove it. conf->disks[i].rdev should only be accessed if - we know we hold a reference or - the mddev->reconfig_sem is down or - we have a rcu_readlock handle_stripe was referencing rdev in three places without any of these. For the first two, get an rcu_readlock. For the last, the same access (md_sync_acct call) is made a little later after the rdev has been claimed under and rcu_readlock, if R5_Syncio is set. So just use that access... However R5_Syncio isn't really needed as the 'syncing' variable contains the same information. So use that instead. Issues, comment, and fix are identical in raid5 and raid6. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] md: attempt to auto-correct read errors in raid1NeilBrown2006-01-061-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On a read-error we suspend the array, then synchronously read the block from other arrays until we find one where we can read it. Then we try writing the good data back everywhere and make sure it works. If any write or subsequent read fails, only then do we fail the device out of the array. To be able to suspend the array, we need to also keep track of how many requests are queued for handling by raid1d.

* [PATCH] md: fix raid6 resync check/repair codeNeilBrown2006-01-061-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | raid6 currently does not check the P/Q syndromes when doing a resync, it just calculates the correct value and writes it. Doing the check can reduce writes (often to 0) for a resync, and it is needed to properly implement the echo check > sync_action operation. This patch implements the appropriate checks and tidies up some related code. It also allows raid6 user-requested resync to bypass the intent bitmap.

Also remove the fixed limit on setxattr data and let the filesystem provide as large a read buffer as it needs to handle the extended attribute data. The symbolic link length is already checked by VFS to be less than PATH_MAX, so the extra check against FUSE_SYMLINK_MAX is not needed. The check in fuse_create_open() against FUSE_NAME_MAX is not needed, since the dentry has already been looked up, and hence the name already checked.

QDIO and HiperSockets processing in z/VM V=V guest environments (as well as V=R with z/VM running in LPAR mode) requires shadowing of all QDIO architecture queue elements. Especially the shadowing of SBALs and SLSBs structures in the hypervisor, and the need to issue SIGA SYNC operations to observe state changes, eventually causes significant CPU processing overhead in the hypervisor. The QDIO pass-through support for V=V guests avoids the shadowing of SBALs and SLSBs. This significantly reduces the hypervisor overhead for QDIO based I/O.

* [PATCH] swsusp: introduce the swap map structureRafael J. Wysocki2006-01-061-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces the swap map structure that can be used by swsusp for keeping tracks of data pages written to the swap.  The structure itself is described in a comment within the patch. The overall idea is to reduce the amount of metadata written to the swap and to write and read the image pages sequentially, in a file-alike way. This makes the swap-handling part of swsusp fairly independent of its snapshot-handling part and will hopefully allow us to completely separate these two parts in the future. This patch is needed to remove the suspend image size limit imposed by the limited size of the swsusp_info structure, which is essential for x86-64 systems with more than 512 MB of RAM.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thanks to Christoph for doing most of the work. This allows automatic SMP IRQ affinity assignment other than default "all interrupts on all CPUs" which is rather expensive. This might be useful if the hardware can be programmed to distribute interrupts among different CPUs, like Alpha does.

* [PATCH] cpu hotplug/x86_64: disable interrupt in play_deadShaohua Li2006-01-061-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | With physical CPU hotplug, the CPU is hot removed and it should not receive any interrupts. Disabling interrupt is much safer. This basically is what we do in ia64 & x86.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 4.1 gives the following warning: include/asm/mpspec.h:79: warning: `packed' attribute ignored for field of type `unsigned char' The packed attribute isn't really necessary anyways so just remove it.

* [PATCH] x86: convert bigsmp to use flat physical modeAshok Raj2006-01-062-45/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we bring up a new CPU via INIT/startup IPI messages, the CPU that's coming up sends a xTPR message to the chipset. Intel chipsets (at least) don't provide any architectural guarantee on what the chipset will do with this message. For example, the E850x chipsets uses this xTPR message to interpret the interrupt operating mode of the platform. When the CPU coming online sends this message, it always indicates that it is in logical flat mode. For the CPU hotplug case, the platform may already be functioning in cluster APIC mode at this time, the chipset can get confused and mishandle I/O device and IPI interrupt routing. The situation eventually gets corrected when the new CPU sends another xTPR update when we switch it to cluster mode, but there's a window during which the chipset may be in an inconsistent state. This patch avoids this problem by using the flat physical interrupt delivery mode instead of cluster mode for bigsmp (>8 cpu) support.
