      "message": "include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h\n\npercpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being\nincluded when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which\nin turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files\nuniversally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.\n\npercpu.h -\u003e slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for\nthis change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those\nheaders directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion\nneeds to touch large number of source files, the following script is\nused as the basis of conversion.\n\n  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py\n\nThe script does the followings.\n\n* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that\n  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,\n  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.\n\n* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include\n  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms\n  to its surrounding.  It\u0027s put in the include block which contains\n  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -\n  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there\n  doesn\u0027t seem to be any matching order.\n\n* If the script can\u0027t find a place to put a new include (mostly\n  because the file doesn\u0027t have fitting include block), it prints out\n  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the\n  file.\n\nThe conversion was done in the following steps.\n\n1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly\n   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h\n   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400\n   files.\n\n2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn\u0027t need the inclusion,\n   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or\n   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added\n   inclusions to around 150 files.\n\n3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits\n   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.\n\n4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.\n   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab\n   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.\n\n5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically\n   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h\n   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h\n   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually\n   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each\n   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as\n   necessary.\n\n6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.\n\n7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures\n   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my\n   distributed build env didn\u0027t work with gcov compiles) and a few\n   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things\n   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).\n\n   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.\n   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig\n   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig\n   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig\n   * s390 SMP allmodconfig\n   * alpha SMP allmodconfig\n   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig\n\n8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as\n   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.\n\nGiven the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step\n6, I\u0027m fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.\nIf there is a breakage, it\u0027s likely to be something in one of the arch\nheaders which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of\nthe specific arch.\n\nSigned-off-by: Tejun Heo \u003ctj@kernel.org\u003e\nGuess-its-ok-by: Christoph Lameter \u003ccl@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Lee Schermerhorn \u003cLee.Schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\n"

      "message": "dm log: userspace add luid to distinguish between concurrent log instances\n\nDevice-mapper userspace logs (like the clustered log) are\nidentified by a universally unique identifier (UUID).  This\nidentifier is used to associate requests from the kernel to\na specific log in userspace.  The UUID must be unique everywhere,\nsince multiple machines may use this identifier when communicating\nabout a particular log, as is the case for cluster logs.\n\nSometimes, device-mapper/LVM may re-use a UUID.  This is the\ncase during pvmoves, when moving from one segment of an LV\nto another, or when resizing a mirror, etc.  In these cases,\na new log is created with the same UUID and loaded in the\n\"inactive\" slot.  When a device-mapper \"resume\" is issued,\nthe \"live\" table is deactivated and the new \"inactive\" table\nbecomes \"live\".  (The \"inactive\" table can also be removed\nvia a device-mapper \u0027clear\u0027 command.)\n\nThe above two issues were colliding.  More than one log was being\ncreated with the same UUID, and there was no way to distinguish\nbetween them.  So, sometimes the wrong log would be swapped\nout during the exchange.\n\nThe solution is to create a locally unique identifier,\n\u0027luid\u0027, to go along with the UUID.  This new identifier is used\nto determine exactly which log is being referenced by the kernel\nwhen the log exchange is made.  The identifier is not\nuniversally safe, but it does not need to be, since\ncreate/destroy/suspend/resume operations are bound to a specific\nmachine; and these are the operations that make up the exchange.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jonathan Brassow \u003cjbrassow@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon \u003cagk@redhat.com\u003e\n"

Due to the frequency,\ndiversity, and 2-way communication nature of the exchanges between\nkernel and userspace, \u0027connector\u0027 was chosen as the interface for\ncommunication.\n\nThe first log implementations written in userspace - \"clustered-disk\"\nand \"clustered-core\" - support clustered shared storage.   A userspace\ndaemon (in the LVM2 source code repository) uses openAIS/corosync to\nprocess requests in an ordered fashion with the rest of the nodes in the\ncluster so as to prevent log state corruption.  Other implementations\nwith no association to LVM or openAIS/corosync, are certainly possible.\n\n(Imagine if two machines are writing to the same region of a mirror.\nThey would both mark the region dirty, but you need a cluster-aware\nentity that can handle properly marking the region clean when they are\ndone.
