[PATCH] Suspend support for libata

This patch adds suspend patch to libata, and ata_piix in particular. For
most low level drivers, they should just need to add the 4 hooks to
work. As I can only test ata_piix, I didn't enable it for more
though.

Suspend support is the single most important feature on a notebook, and
most new notebooks have sata drives. It's quite embarrassing that we
_still_ do not support this. Right now, it's perfectly possible to
suspend the drive in mid-transfer.

NeilBrown [Fri, 6 Jan 2006 08:20:36 +0000 (00:20 -0800)]
[PATCH] md: remove personality numbering from md

md supports multiple different RAID level, each being implemented by a
'personality' (which is often in a separate module).

These personalities have fairly artificial 'numbers'.  The numbers
are use to:
 1- provide an index into an array where the various personalities
    are recorded
 2- identify the module (via an alias) which implements are particular
    personality.

Neither of these uses really justify the existence of personality numbers.
The array can be replaced by a linked list which is searched (array lookup
only happens very rarely).  Module identification can be done using an alias
based on level rather than 'personality' number.

The current 'raid5' modules support two level (4 and 5) but only one
personality.  This slight awkwardness (which was handled in the mapping from
level to personality) can be better handled by allowing raid5 to register 2
personalities.

With this change in place, the core md module does not need to have an
exhaustive list of all possible personalities, so other personalities can be
added independently.

This patch also moves the check for chunksize being non-zero into the ->run
routines for the personalities that need it, rather than having it in core-md.
 This has a side effect of allowing 'faulty' and 'linear' not to have a
chunk-size set.

[PATCH] md: make /proc/mdstat pollable

With this patch it is possible to poll /proc/mdstat to detect arrays appearing
or disappearing, to detect failures, recovery starting, recovery completing,
and devices being added and removed.

It is similar to the poll-ability of /proc/mounts, though different in that:

We always report that the file is readable (because face it, it is, even if
only for EOF).

We report POLLPRI when there is a change so that select() can detect
it as an exceptional event.  Not only are these exceptional events, but
that is the mechanism that the current 'mdadm' uses to watch for events
(It also polls after a timeout).
(We also report POLLERR like /proc/mounts).

Finally, we only reset the per-file event counter when the start of the file
is read, rather than when poll() returns an event.  This is more robust as it
means that an fd will continue to report activity to poll/select until the
program clearly responds to that activity.

md_new_event takes an 'mddev' which isn't currently used, but it will be soon.

Add in correct read-error handling for resync and read-only situations.

When read-only, we don't over-write, so we need to mark the failed drive in
the r10_bio so we don't re-try it.  During resync, we always read all blocks,
so if there is a read error, we simply over-write it with the good block that
we found (assuming we found one).

Note that the recovery case still isn't handled in an interesting way.  There
is nothing useful to do for the 2-copies case.  If there are 3 or more copies,
then we could try reading from one of the non-missing copies, but this is a

[PATCH] make dm-mirror not issue invalid resync requests

I've been attempting to set up a (Host)RAID mirror with dm_mirror on
2.6.14.3, and I've been having a strange little problem.  The configuration
in question is a set of 9GB SCSI disks that have 17942584 sectors.  I set
up the dm_mirror table as such:

17942528 mirror core 2 2048 nosync 2 8:48 0 8:64 0

If I'm not mistaken, this sets up a 9GB RAID1 mriror with 1MB stripes
across both SCSI disks.  The sector count of the dm device is less than the
size of the disks, so we shouldn't fall off the end.  However, I always get
the messages like this in dmesg when I set up the dm table:

attempt to access beyond end of device
sdd: rw=0, want=17958656, limit=17942584

Clearly, something is trying to read sectors past the end of the drive.  I
traced it down to the __rh_recovery_prepare function in dm-raid1.c, which
gets called when we're putting the mirror set together.  This function
calls the dirty region log's get_resync_work function to see if there's any
resync that needs to be done, and queues up any areas that are out of sync.
 The log's get_resync_work function is actually a pointer to the
core_get_resync_work function in dm-log.c.

The core_get_resync_work function queries a bitset lc->sync_bits to find
out if there are any regions that are out of date (i.e.  the bit is 0),
which is where the problem occurs.  If every bit in lc->sync_bits is 1
(which is the case when we've just configured a new RAID1 with the nosync
option), the find_next_zero_bit does NOT return the size parameter
(lc->region_count in this case), it returns the size parameter rounded up
to the nearest multiple of 32!  I don't know if this is intentional, but
i386 and x86_64 both exhibit this behavior.

In any case, the statement "if (*region == lc->region_count)" looks like
it's supposed to catch the case where are no regions to resync and
return 0.  Since find_next_zero_bit apparently has a habit of returning
a value that's larger than lc->region_count, the enclosed patch changes
the equality test to a greater-than test so that we don't try to resync
areas outside of the RAID1 region.  Seeing as the HostRAID metadata
lives just past the end of the RAID1 data, mucking around in that area
is not a good idea.

I suppose another way to fix this would be to amend find_next_zero_bit so
that it doesn't return values larger than "size", but I don't know if
there's a reason for the current behavior.

[PATCH] knfsd: check error status from vfs_getattr and i_op->fsync

Both vfs_getattr and i_op->fsync return error statuses which nfsd was
largely ignoring.  This as noticed when exporting directories using fuse.

This patch cleans up most of the offences, which involves moving the call
to vfs_getattr out of the xdr encoding routines (where it is too late to
report an error) into the main NFS procedure handling routines.

There is still a called to vfs_gettattr (related to the ACL code) where the
status is ignored, and called to nfsd_sync_dir don't check return status
either.

[PATCH] Keep nfsd from exiting when seeing recv() errors

I submitted this one previously - svc_tcp_recvfrom currently returns
any errors to the caller, including ECONNRESET and the like.

This is something svc_recv isn't able to deal with:

len = svsk->sk_recvfrom(rqstp);
[...]
if (len == 0 || len == -EAGAIN) {
[...]
return -EAGAIN;
}

[...]
return len;

The nfsd main loop will exit when it sees an error code other than
EAGAIN.

The following patch fixes this problem

svc_recv is not equipped to deal with error codes other than EAGAIN,
and will propagate anything else (such as ECONNRESET) up to nfsd,
causing it to exit.
