When the last reference is\ndropped and the counter reaches zero, the table destructor is called.\nTable reference counters are acquired/released from upcalls from other\nkernel code (dm_any_congested, dm_merge_bvec, dm_unplug_all).\nIf the reference counter reaches zero in one of the upcalls, the table\ndestructor is called from almost random kernel code.\n\nThis leads to various problems:\n* dm_any_congested being called under a spinlock, which calls the\n destructor, which calls some sleeping function.\n* the destructor attempting to take a lock that is already taken by the\n same process.\n* stale reference from some other kernel code keeps the table\n constructed, which keeps some devices open, even after successful\n return from \"dmsetup remove\". This can confuse lvm and prevent closing\n of underlying devices or reusing device minor numbers.\n\nThe patch changes reference counting so that the table destructor can be\ncalled only at predetermined places.\n\nThe table has always exactly one reference from either mapped_device-\u003emap\nor hash_cell-\u003enew_map. After this patch, this reference is not counted\nin table-\u003eholders. A pair of dm_create_table/dm_destroy_table functions\nis used for table creation/destruction.\n\nTemporary references from the other code increase table-\u003eholders. A pair\nof dm_table_get/dm_table_put functions is used to manipulate it.\n\nWhen the table is about to be destroyed, we wait for table-\u003eholders to\nreach 0. Then, we call the table destructor. We use active waiting with\nmsleep(1), because the situation happens rarely (to one user in 5 years)\nand removing the device isn\u0027t performance-critical task: the user doesn\u0027t\ncare if it takes one tick more or not.\n\nThis way, the destructor is called only at specific points\n(dm_table_destroy function) and the above problems associated with lazy\ndestruction can\u0027t happen.\n\nFinally remove the temporary protection added to dm_any_congested().\n\nSigned-off-by: Mikulas Patocka \u003cmpatocka@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon \u003cagk@redhat.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "23d39f63aa87e812fd879b8bc32ee6ccfe733de3", "tree": "3535af0aff56260cdbf573a704e3f0122c6cfc8b", "parents": [ "ac1f0ac22c7be908fd33407273b9808bfaedada4" ], "author": { "name": "Milan Broz", "email": "mbroz@redhat.com", "time": "Tue Jan 06 03:05:04 2009 +0000" }, "committer": { "name": "Alasdair G Kergon", "email": "agk@redhat.com", "time": "Tue Jan 06 03:05:04 2009 +0000" }, "message": "dm ioctl: allow dm_copy_name_and_uuid to return only one field\n\nAllow NULL buffer in dm_copy_name_and_uuid if you only want to return one of\nthe fields.\n\n(Required by a following patch that adds these fields to sysfs.)\n\nSigned-off-by: Milan Broz \u003cmbroz@redhat.com\u003e\nReviewed-by: Alasdair G Kergon \u003cagk@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon \u003cagk@redhat.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "aeb5d727062a0238a2f96c9c380fbd2be4640c6f", "tree": "51dae8a071fcf42e4431a66d37c5b843c8e99cf6", "parents": [ "2515ddc6db8eb49a79f0fe5e67ff09ac7c81eab4" ], "author": { "name": "Al Viro", "email": "viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk", "time": "Tue Sep 02 15:28:45 2008 -0400" }, "committer": { "name": "Al Viro", "email": "viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk", "time": "Tue Oct 21 07:47:06 2008 -0400" }, "message": "[PATCH] introduce fmode_t, do annotations\n\nSigned-off-by: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "b0af205afb111e17ac8db64c3b9c4f2c332de92a", "tree": "3999a2ffbd36e9d1cc6ca30e6b9d6280f4e50116", "parents": [ "73f6aa4d44ab6157badc456ddfa05b31e58de5f0", "0c2322e4ce144e130c03d813fe92de3798662c5e" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Fri Oct 10 11:11:47 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Fri Oct 10 11:11:47 2008 -0700" }, "message": "Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-2.6-dm\n\n* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-2.6-dm:\n dm: detect lost queue\n dm: publish dm_vcalloc\n dm: publish dm_table_unplug_all\n dm: publish dm_get_mapinfo\n dm: export struct dm_dev\n dm crypt: avoid unnecessary wait when splitting bio\n dm crypt: tidy ctx pending\n dm crypt: fix async inc_pending\n dm crypt: move dec_pending on error into write_io_submit\n dm crypt: remove inc_pending from write_io_submit\n dm crypt: tidy write loop pending\n dm crypt: tidy crypt alloc\n dm crypt: tidy inc pending\n dm exception store: use chunk_t for_areas\n dm exception store: introduce area_location function\n dm raid1: kcopyd should stop on error if errors handled\n dm mpath: remove is_active from struct dm_path\n dm mpath: use more error codes\n\nFixed up trivial conflict in drivers/md/dm-mpath.c manually.\n" }, { "commit": "82b1519b345d61dcfae526e3fcb08128f39f9bcc", "tree": "240bc646da63557ed7fa81fa3c17d05b95853f45", "parents": [ "933f01d43326fb12a978a8e0bb062c28a2de4d5a" ], "author": { "name": "Mikulas Patocka", "email": "mpatocka@redhat.com", "time": "Fri Oct 10 13:37:09 2008 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Alasdair G Kergon", "email": "agk@redhat.com", "time": "Fri Oct 10 13:37:09 2008 +0100" }, "message": "dm: export struct dm_dev\n\nSplit struct dm_dev in two and publish the part that other targets need in\ninclude/linux/device-mapper.h.\n\nSigned-off-by: Mikulas Patocka \u003cmpatocka@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon \u003cagk@redhat.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "b7db9956e57c8151b930d5e5fe5c766e6aad3ff7", "tree": "d663a8687fff481abb1498c2ea0eac01ef81cb26", "parents": [ "e56105214943ce5f0901d20e972a7cfd0d1d0656" ], "author": { "name": "Tejun Heo", "email": "tj@kernel.org", "time": "Mon Aug 25 19:56:10 2008 +0900" }, "committer": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "jens.axboe@oracle.com", "time": "Thu Oct 09 08:56:07 2008 +0200" }, "message": "block: move policy from disk to part0\n\nMove disk-\u003epolicy to part0-\u003epolicy.
