2012-07-12dm persistent data: fix allocation failure in space map checker initMike Snitzer
commit b0239faaf87c38bb419c9264bf20817438ddc3a9 upstream. If CONFIG_DM_DEBUG_SPACE_MAPS is enabled and memory is fragmented and a sufficiently-large metadata device is used in a thin pool then the space map checker will fail to allocate the memory it requires. Switch from kmalloc to vmalloc to allow larger virtually contiguous allocations for the space map checker's internal count arrays.

2012-07-12dm persistent data: handle space map checker creation failureMike Snitzer
commit 62662303e7f590fdfbb0070ab820a0ad4267c119 upstream. If CONFIG_DM_DEBUG_SPACE_MAPS is enabled and dm_sm_checker_create() fails, dm_tm_create_internal() would still return success even though it cleaned up all resources it was supposed to have created. This will lead to a kernel crash: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC ...

2012-07-12dm persistent data: fix shadow_info_leak on dm_tm_destroyMike Snitzer
commit 25d7cd6faa7ae6ed2565617c3ee2500ccb8a9f7f upstream. Cleanup the shadow table before destroying the transaction manager. Reference: leak was identified with kmemleak when running test_discard_random_sectors in the thinp-test-suite.

2012-04-02dm persistent data: fix btree rebalancing after removeJoe Thornber
commit b0988900bae9ecf968a8a8d086a9eec671a9517a upstream. When we remove an entry from a node we sometimes rebalance with it's two neighbours. This wasn't being done correctly; in some cases entries have to move all the way from the right neighbour to the left neighbour, or vice versa. This patch pretty much re-writes the balancing code to fix it. This code is barely used currently; only when you delete a thin device, and then only if you have hundreds of them in the same pool. Once we have discard support, which removes mappings, this will be used much more heavily.

For the files which are not themselves modular, we can change them to include only the smaller export.h since all they are doing is looking for EXPORT_SYMBOL.

2011-10-31dm: add persistent data libraryJoe Thornber
The persistent-data library offers a re-usable framework for the storage and management of on-disk metadata in device-mapper targets. It's used by the thin-provisioning target in the next patch and in an upcoming hierarchical storage target.
