dm delay: document that offsets are specified in sectors

2015-10-31T23:06:05+00:00

Only delay params are mentioned in delay.txt.
Mention offsets just like documents for linear and flakey do.

dm delay: capitalize the start of an delay_ctr() error message

All other error messages start capitalized.

dm delay: Use DM_MAPIO macros instead of open-coded equivalents

2015-10-31T23:06:04+00:00

.map function of dm-delay returns return value of delay_bio(),
hence it's supposed to return using a defined DM_MAPIO macro.

dm: do not override error code returned from dm_get_device()

2015-08-12T15:32:21+00:00

Some of the device mapper targets override the error code returned by
dm_get_device() and return either -EINVAL or -ENXIO.  There is nothing
gained by this override.  It is better to propagate the returned error
code unchanged to caller.

This work was motivated by hitting an issue where the underlying device
was busy but -EINVAL was being returned.  After this change we get
-EBUSY instead and it is easier to figure out the problem.

dm delay: use msecs_to_jiffies for time conversion

2015-04-15T16:10:21+00:00

Converting milliseconds to jiffies by "val * HZ / 1000" is technically
OK but msecs_to_jiffies(val) is the cleaner solution and handles all
corner cases correctly.

Merge branch 'for-3.14/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2014-01-30T19:19:05+00:00

Pull core block IO changes from Jens Axboe:
 "The major piece in here is the immutable bio_ve series from Kent, the
  rest is fairly minor.  It was supposed to go in last round, but
  various issues pushed it to this release instead.  The pull request
  contains:

   - Various smaller blk-mq fixes from different folks.  Nothing major
     here, just minor fixes and cleanups.

   - Fix for a memory leak in the error path in the block ioctl code
     from Christian Engelmayer.

   - Header export fix from CaiZhiyong.

   - Finally the immutable biovec changes from Kent Overstreet.  This
     enables some nice future work on making arbitrarily sized bios
     possible, and splitting more efficient.  Related fixes to immutable
     bio_vecs:

        - dm-cache immutable fixup from Mike Snitzer.
        - btrfs immutable fixup from Muthu Kumar.

  - bio-integrity fix from Nic Bellinger, which is also going to stable"

dm delay: use per-bio data instead of a mempool and slab cache

2014-01-07T15:11:45+00:00

Starting with commit c0820cf5ad095 ("dm: introduce per_bio_data"),
device mapper has the capability to pre-allocate a target-specific
structure with the bio.

This patch changes dm-delay to use this facility instead of a slab cache
and mempool.

Merge tag 'v3.13-rc6' into for-3.14/core

2013-12-31T16:51:02+00:00

Needed to bring blk-mq uptodate, since changes have been going in
since for-3.14/core was established.

Fixup merge issues related to the immutable biovec changes.

block: Abstract out bvec iterator

2013-11-24T06:33:47+00:00

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

dm delay: fix a possible deadlock due to shared workqueue

2013-11-18T16:23:21+00:00

The dm-delay target uses a shared workqueue for multiple instances.  This
can cause deadlock if two or more dm-delay targets are stacked on the top
of each other.

This patch changes dm-delay to use a per-instance workqueue.
