dm: add support for REQ_NOWAIT to various targets

2020-12-04T23:04:35Z

commit 021a24460dc2 ("block: add QUEUE_FLAG_NOWAIT") added a new queue flag QUEUE_FLAG_NOWAIT to advertise if the bdev supports handling of REQ_NOWAIT or not. DM core supports stacking QUEUE_FLAG_NOWAIT since commit 6abc49468eea ("dm: add support for REQ_NOWAIT and enable it for linear target"), in which only dm-linear enabled it. Update others DM targets, which just do simple remapping, to enable support for REQ_NOWAIT. Signed-off-by: Jeffle Xu Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

dm: don't return errnos from ->map

2017-06-09T15:27:32Z

Instead use the special DM_MAPIO_KILL return value to return -EIO just like we do for the request based path. Note that dm-log-writes returned -ENOMEM in a few places, which now becomes -EIO instead. No consumer treats -ENOMEM special so this shouldn't be an issue (and it should use a mempool to start with to make guaranteed progress).

block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf

2016-08-07T20:41:02Z

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger, rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break at compile time instead of at runtime. No intended functional changes in this commit.

block: get rid of bio_rw and READA

2016-07-20T23:37:01Z

These two are confusing leftover of the old world order, combining values of the REQ_OP_ and REQ_ namespaces. For callers that don't special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_ values makes more sense. Any check for READA is replaced with an explicit check for REQ_RAHEAD. Also remove the READA alias for REQ_RAHEAD.

block: add a bi_error field to struct bio

2015-07-29T14:55:15Z

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO: (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds of error returns. So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

dm: rename request variables to bios

2013-03-01T22:45:47Z

Use 'bio' in the name of variables and functions that deal with bios rather than 'request' to avoid confusion with the normal block layer use of 'request'. No functional changes. Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon

dm: remove map_info

This patch removes map_info from bio-based device mapper targets. map_info is still used for request-based targets. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon

dm: consolidate target deregistration error handling

2009-01-06T03:04:58Z

Change dm_unregister_target to return void and use BUG() for error reporting. dm_unregister_target can only fail because of programming bug in the target driver. It can't fail because of user's behavior or disk errors. This patch changes unregister_target to return void and use BUG if someone tries to unregister non-registered target or unregister target that is in use. This patch removes code duplication (testing of error codes in all dm targets) and reports bugs in just one place, in dm_unregister_target. In some target drivers, these return codes were ignored, which could lead to a situation where bugs could be missed. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon
