Convert files to UTF-8 and some cleanups

2007-10-19T21:21:04+00:00

* Convert files to UTF-8.

  * Also correct some people's names
    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)

  * Correct town names (Goettingen -> Göttingen)

  * Update Eberhard Mönkeberg's address (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/8/313)

md: make sure read errors are auto-corrected during a 'check' resync in raid1

2007-10-17T15:43:03+00:00

Whenever a read error is found, we should attempt to overwrite with correct
data to 'fix' it.

However when do a 'check' pass (which compares data blocks that are
successfully read, but doesn't normally overwrite) we don't do that.  We
should.

block: convert blkdev_issue_flush() to use empty barriers

2007-10-16T09:05:02+00:00

Then we can get rid of ->issue_flush_fn() and all the driver private
implementations of that.

Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_io

2007-10-10T07:25:57+00:00

As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete,
the 'size' argument is now redundant.  Remove it.

Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed
from bi_size.  So don't do that either.

While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void.

md: correctly update sysfs when a raid1 is reshaped

2007-08-23T02:52:46+00:00

When a raid1 array is reshaped (number of drives changed), the list of devices
is compacted, so that slots for missing devices are filled with working
devices from later slots.  This requires the "rd%d" symlinks in sysfs to be
updated.

md: make sure a re-add after a restart honours bitmap when resyncing

2007-08-23T02:52:46+00:00

Commit 1757128438d41670ded8bc3bc735325cc07dc8f9 was slightly bad.  If an array
has a write-intent bitmap, and you remove a drive, then readd it, only the
changed parts should be resynced.  However after the above commit, this only
works if the array has not been shut down and restarted.

This is because it sets 'fullsync' at little more often than it should.  This
patch is more careful.

[BLOCK] Get rid of request_queue_t typedef

2007-07-24T07:28:11+00:00

Some of the code has been gradually transitioned to using the proper
struct request_queue, but there's lots left. So do a full sweet of
the kernel and get rid of this typedef and replace its uses with
the proper type.

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions

2007-07-17T17:23:15+00:00

bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void.  Two callers try
to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed
by bitmap_file_kick.

write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked.  It always
causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more
conveniently be checked.

When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to
be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive
calls into bitmap_file_kick.

bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked.

So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

md: fix bug in error handling during raid1 repair

2007-06-16T20:16:15+00:00

If raid1/repair (which reads all block and fixes any differences it finds)
hits a read error, it doesn't reset the bio for writing before writing
correct data back, so the read error isn't fixed, and the device probably
gets a zero-length write which it might complain about.
