2026-06-04raid6: use kmalloc() in raid6_select_algo()Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)
raid6_select_algo() allocates 8 pages for buffer that is used as a scratch area for selection of the best algorithm. This buffer can be allocated with kmalloc() as there's nothing special about it to go directly to the page allocator. kmalloc() provides a better API than ancient __get_free_pages(). kmalloc() does not require ugly casts and kfree() does not need to know the size of the freed object. There is no performance difference because kmalloc() redirects allocations of such size to the page allocator. Replace __get_free_pages() call with kmalloc().

2026-05-28raid6_kunit: randomize buffer alignmentChristoph Hellwig
Add code to add random alignment to the buffers to test the case where they are not page aligned, and to move the buffers to the end of the allocation so that they are next to the vmalloc guard page. This does not include the recovery buffers as the recovery requires page alignment.

2026-05-28raid6_kunit: randomize parameters and increase limitsChristoph Hellwig
The current test has double-quadratic behavior in the selection for the updated ("XORed") disks, and in the selection of updated pointers, which makes scaling it to more tests difficult. At the same time it only ever tests with the maximum number of disks, which leaves a coverage hole for smaller ones. Fix this by randomizing the total number, failed disks and regions to update, and increasing the upper number of tests disks.

2026-05-28raid6: rework registration of optimized algorithmsChristoph Hellwig
Replace the static array of algorithms with a call to an architecture helper to register algorithms. This serves two purposes: it avoid having to register all algorithms in a single central place, and it removes the need for the priority field by just registering the algorithms that the architecture considers suitable for the currently running CPUs.

2026-05-28raid6: warn when using less than four devicesChristoph Hellwig
Quoting H. Peter Anvin who came up with the RAID6 P/Q algorithm, and who wrote the initial implementation, then still part of the md driver: The RAID-6 code has *never* supported only 3 units, and if it ever worked for *any* of the implementations it was purely by accident. Speaking as the original author I should know; this was deliberate as in some cases the degenerate case (3) would have required extra trays in the code to no user benefit. While md never allowed less than 4 devices, btrfs does. This new warning will trigger for such file systems, but given how it already causes havoc that is a good thing. If btrfs wants to fix third, it should switch to transparently use three-way mirroring underneath, which will work as P and Q are copies of the single data device by the definition of the Linux RAID 6 P/Q algorithm.

2026-05-28raid6: move to lib/raid/Christoph Hellwig
Move the raid6 code to live in lib/raid/ with the XOR code, and change the internal organization so that each architecture has a subdirectory similar to the CRC, crypto and XOR libraries, and fix up the Makefile to only build files actually needed. Also move the kunit test case from the history test/ subdirectory to tests/ and use the normal naming scheme for it.
