dm cache: remove needless request_queue NULL pointer checks

2021-03-26T18:53:42Z

Since commit ff9ea323816d ("block, bdi: an active gendisk always has a request_queue associated with it") the request_queue pointer returned from bdev_get_queue() shall never be NULL. Signed-off-by: Xu Wang Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

Revert "dm cache: fix arm link errors with inline"

2020-12-01T20:43:36Z

This reverts commit 43aeaa29573924df76f44eda2bbd94ca36e407b5. Since commit 0bddd227f3dc ("Documentation: update for gcc 4.9 requirement") the minimum supported version of GCC is gcc-4.9. It's now safe to remove this code. Link: https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/427 Signed-off-by: Nick Desaulniers Acked-by: Mikulas Patocka Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

dm: use dm_table_get_device_name() where appropriate in targets

2020-09-29T20:33:08Z

dm_table_get_device_name() avoids calling dm_table_get_md() followed by dm_device_name() -- saves intermediate dm_table_get_md() call. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

writeback: remove bdi->congested_fn

2020-07-08T23:20:46Z

Except for pktdvd, the only places setting congested bits are file systems that allocate their own backing_dev_info structures. And pktdvd is a deprecated driver that isn't useful in stack setup either. So remove the dead congested_fn stacking infrastructure.

block: rename generic_make_request to submit_bio_noacct

2020-07-01T13:27:24Z

generic_make_request has always been very confusingly misnamed, so rename it to submit_bio_noacct to make it clear that it is submit_bio minus accounting and a few checks. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

dm: bump version of core and various targets

2020-03-03T16:10:21Z

Changes made during the 5.6 cycle warrant bumping the version number for DM core and the targets modified by this commit. It should be noted that dm-thin, dm-crypt and dm-raid already had their target version bumped during the 5.6 merge window. Signed-off-by; Mike Snitzer

dm cache: fix a crash due to incorrect work item cancelling

2020-02-27T17:00:52Z

The crash can be reproduced by running the lvm2 testsuite test lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh for several minutes, e.g.: while :; do make check T=shell/lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh; done The crash happens in this call chain: do_waker -> policy_tick -> smq_tick -> end_hotspot_period -> clear_bitset -> memset -> __memset -- which accesses an invalid pointer in the vmalloc area. The work entry on the workqueue is executed even after the bitmap was freed. The problem is that cancel_delayed_work doesn't wait for the running work item to finish, so the work item can continue running and re-submitting itself even after cache_postsuspend. In order to make sure that the work item won't be running, we must use cancel_delayed_work_sync. Also, change flush_workqueue to drain_workqueue, so that if some work item submits itself or another work item, we are properly waiting for both of them.

dm cache: replace spin_lock_irqsave with spin_lock_irq

2019-11-05T19:53:04Z

If we are in a place where it is known that interrupts are enabled, functions spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq should be used instead of spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore. spin_lock_irq and spin_unlock_irq are faster because they don't need to push and pop the flags register.
