A pending cleanup will mean that module.h won't be implicitly
everywhere anymore. Make sure the modular drivers in md dir
are actually calling out for explicitly in advance.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

When devices in a RAID array are not in-sync, they are supposed to be
reported as such in the status output as an 'a' character, which means
"alive, but not in-sync". But when the entire array is rebuilt 'A' is
being used, which is incorrect. This patch corrects this to 'a'.Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow

The typedefs are just annoying. 'mdk' probably refers to 'md_k.h'

Fix off-by-one error in validation of write_mostly.
The user-supplied value given for the 'write_mostly' argument must be an
index starting at 0. The validation of the supplied argument failed to
check for 'N' ('>' vs '>='), which would have caused an access beyond the
end of the array.Reported-by: Doug Ledford

Support the MD RAID1 personality through dm-raid.
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow
Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon -
Add the ability to parse and use metadata devices to dm-raid. Although
not strictly required, without the metadata devices, many features of
RAID are unavailable. They are used to store a superblock and bitmap.The role, or position in the array, of each device must be recorded in
its superblock. This is to help with fault handling, array reshaping,
and sanity checks. RAID 4/5/6 devices must be loaded in a specific order:
in this way, the 'array_position' field helps validate the correctness
of the mapping when it is loaded. It can be used during reshaping to
identify which devices are added/removed. Fault handling is impossible
without this field. For example, when a device fails it is recorded in
the superblock. If this is a RAID1 device and the offending device is
removed from the array, there must be a way during subsequent array
assembly to determine that the failed device was the one removed. This
is done by correlating the 'array_position' field and the bit-field
variable 'failed_devices'.Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow

Re-order the parameters so they are handled consistently in the same order
where defined, parsed and output.Only include rebuild parameters in the STATUSTYPE_TABLE output if they were
supplied in the original table line.Correct the parameter count when outputting rebuild: there are two words,
not one.Use case-independent checks for keywords (as in other device-mapper targets).

This patch is the skeleton for the DM target that will be
the bridge from DM to MD (initially RAID456 and later RAID1). It
provides a way to use device-mapper interfaces to the MD RAID456
drivers.As with all device-mapper targets, the nominal public interfaces are the
constructor (CTR) tables and the status outputs (both STATUSTYPE_INFO
and STATUSTYPE_TABLE). The CTR table looks like the following:1: raid \
2: \
3: ..Line 1 contains the standard first three arguments to any device-mapper
target - the start, length, and target type fields. The target type in
this case is "raid".Line 2 contains the arguments that define the particular raid
type/personality/level, the required arguments for that raid type, and
any optional arguments. Possible raid types include: raid4, raid5_la,
raid5_ls, raid5_rs, raid6_zr, raid6_nr, and raid6_nc. (again, raid1 is
planned for the future.) The list of required and optional parameters
is the same for all the current raid types. The required parameters are
positional, while the optional parameters are given as key/value pairs.
The possible parameters are as follows:
Chunk size in sectors.
[[no]sync] Force/Prevent RAID initialization
[rebuild ] Rebuild the drive indicated by the index
[daemon_sleep ] Time between bitmap daemon work to clear bits
[min_recovery_rate ] Throttle RAID initialization
[max_recovery_rate ] Throttle RAID initialization
[max_write_behind ] See '-write-behind=' (man mdadm)
[stripe_cache ] Stripe cache size for higher RAIDsLine 3 contains the list of devices that compose the array in
metadata/data device pairs. If the metadata is stored separately, a '-'
is given for the metadata device position. If a drive has failed or is
missing at creation time, a '-' can be given for both the metadata and
data drives for a given position.Examples:
# RAID4 - 4 data drives, 1 parity
# No metadata devices specified to hold superblock/bitmap info
# Chunk size of 1MiB
# (Lines separated for easy reading)
0 1960893648 raid \
raid4 1 2048 \
5 - 8:17 - 8:33 - 8:49 - 8:65 - 8:81# RAID4 - 4 data drives, 1 parity (no metadata devices)
# Chunk size of 1MiB, force RAID initialization,
# min recovery rate at 20 kiB/sec/disk
0 1960893648 raid \
raid4 4 2048 min_recovery_rate 20 sync\
5 - 8:17 - 8:33 - 8:49 - 8:65 - 8:81Performing a 'dmsetup table' should display the CTR table used to
construct the mapping (with possible reordering of optional
parameters).Performing a 'dmsetup status' will yield information on the state and
health of the array. The output is as follows:
1: raid \
2:Line 1 is standard DM output. Line 2 is best shown by example:
0 1960893648 raid raid4 5 AAAAA 2/490221568
Here we can see the RAID type is raid4, there are 5 devices - all of
which are 'A'live, and the array is 2/490221568 complete with recovery.Cc: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org
