Automatic partition scanning can be requested individually per loop device during its setup by setting LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN. By default, no partition tables are scanned. Userspace can now always add and remove partitions from all loop devices, regardless if the in-kernel partition scanner is enabled or not. The needed partition minor numbers are allocated from the extended minors space, the main loop device numbers will continue to match the loop minors, regardless of the number of partitions used. # grep . /sys/class/block/loop1/loop/* /sys/block/loop1/loop/autoclear:0 /sys/block/loop1/loop/backing_file:/home/kay/data/stuff/part.img /sys/block/loop1/loop/offset:0 /sys/block/loop1/loop/partscan:1 /sys/block/loop1/loop/sizelimit:0 # ls -l /dev/loop* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 0 Aug 14 20:22 /dev/loop0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 1 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 0 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop1p1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 1 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop1p2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 99 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop99 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 2 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop99p1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 3 Aug 14 20:23 /dev/loop99p2 crw------T 1 root root 10, 237 Aug 14 20:22 /dev/loop-control Cc: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@gnu.org> Acked-By: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

There are cases where suppressing partition scan is useful - e.g. for lo devices and pseudo SATA devices which advertise to be a disk but get upset on partition scan (some port multiplier control devices show such behavior). This patch adds GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN which suppresses partition scan regardless of the number of possible partitions. disk_partitionable() is renamed to disk_part_scan_enabled() as suppressing partition scan doesn't imply the device can't be partitioned using BLKPG_ADD/DEL_PARTITION calls from userland. show_partition() now directly tests disk_max_parts() to maintain backward-compatibility. -v2: Updated to make it clear that only partition scan is suppressed not partitioning itself as suggested by Kay Sievers.

This commit adds discard support for loop devices. Discard is usually supported by SSD and thinly provisioned devices as a method for reclaiming unused space. This is no different than trying to reclaim back space which is not used by the file system on the image, but it still occupies space on the host file system. We can do the reclamation on file system which does support hole punching. So when discard request gets to the loop driver we can translate that to punch a hole to the underlying file, hence reclaim the free space. This is very useful for trimming down the size of the image to only what is really used by the file system on that image. Fstrim may be used for that purpose. It has been tested on ext4, xfs and btrfs with the image file systems ext4, ext3, xfs and btrfs. ext4, or ext6 image on ext4 file system has some problems but it seems that ext4 punch hole implementation is somewhat flawed and it is unrelated to this commit. Also this is a very good method of validating file systems punch hole implementation. Note that when encryption is used, discard support is disabled, because using it might leak some information useful for possible attacker.

Commit d006199e72a9 ("serial: sh-sci: Regtype probing doesn't need to be fatal.") made sci_init_single() return when sci_probe_regmap() succeeds, although it should return when sci_probe_regmap() fails. This causes systems using the serial sh-sci driver to crash during boot. Fix the problem by using the right return condition. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Since commit 1eb19a12 ("lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1"), the ARM SHA1 routines no longer work. The reason? They depended on the larger 320-byte workspace, and now the sha1 workspace is just 16 words (64 bytes). So the assembly version would overwrite the stack randomly. The optimized asm version is also probably slower than the new improved C version, so there's no reason to keep it around. At least that was the case in git, where what appears to be the same assembly language version was removed two years ago because the optimized C BLK_SHA1 code was faster.

The inode structure layout is largely random, and some of the vfs paths really do care. The path lookup in particular is already quite D$ intensive, and profiles show that accessing the 'inode->i_op->xyz' fields is quite costly. We already optimized the dcache to not unnecessarily load the d_op structure for members that are often NULL using the DCACHE_OP_xyz bits in dentry->d_flags, and this does something very similar for the inode ops that are used during pathname lookup. It also re-orders the fields so that the fields accessed by 'stat' are together at the beginning of the inode structure, and roughly in the order accessed. The effect of this seems to be in the 1-2% range for an empty kernel "make -j" run (which is fairly kernel-intensive, mostly in filename lookup), so it's visible. The numbers are fairly noisy, though, and likely depend a lot on exact microarchitecture. So there's more tuning to be done. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Gcc tends to generate better code with small integers, including the DCACHE_xyz flag tests - so move the common ones to be first in the list. Also just remove the unused DCACHE_INOTIFY_PARENT_WATCHED and DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING values, their users no longer exists in the source tree. And add a "unlikely()" to the DCACHE_OP_COMPARE test, since we want the common case to be a nice straight-line fall-through. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

ORE stands for "Objects Raid Engine" This patch is a mechanical rename of everything that was in ios.c and its API declaration to an ore.c and an osd_ore.h header. The ore engine will later be used by the pnfs objects layout driver. * File ios.c => ore.c * Declaration of types and API are moved from exofs.h to a new osd_ore.h * All used types are prefixed by ore_ from their exofs_ name. * Shift includes from exofs.h to osd_ore.h so osd_ore.h is independent, include it from exofs.h. Other than a pure rename there are no other changes. Next patch will move the ore into it's own module and will export the API to be used by exofs and later the layout driver Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info, single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage. This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object component it's own pid, oid and creds. So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by: * Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info. * Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the arrays. * Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds and device array to use for each IO. This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since some of these members already existed in another form. * ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of these structures and arrays. At the exofs Level: * Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to previous exofs versions. * Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds. When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the layout. While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not check the credentials. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

In future raid code we will need to know the IO offset/length and if it's a read or write to determine some of the array sizes we'll need. So add a new exofs_get_rw_state() API for use when writeing/reading. All other simple cases are left using the old way. The major change to this is that now we need to call exofs_get_io_state later at inode.c::read_exec and inode.c::write_exec when we actually know these things. So this patch is kept separate so I can test things apart from other changes. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons. MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.) Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly unpredictable is a very serious limitation. So the periodic regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed. We compute and use a full 32-bit sequence number. For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.
