9faf400f7e [PATCH] dm: use private biosets
I found a problem within device-mapper that occurs in low-mem situations.  It
was found using a mirror target but I think in theory it would hit any setup
that stacks device-mapper devices (like LVM on top of multipath).

Since device-mapper core uses the common fs_bioset in clone_bio(), and a
private, but still global, bio_set in split_bvec() it is possible that the
filesystem and the first level target successfully get bios but the lower
level target doesn't because there is no more memory and the pool was drained
by upper layers.  So the remapping will be stuck forever.  To solve this
device-mapper core needs to use a private bio_set for each device.

8757b7764f [PATCH] dm table: add target preresume
This patch adds a target preresume hook.

It is called before the targets are resumed and if it returns an error the
resume gets cancelled.

The crypt target will use this to indicate that it is unable to process I/O
because no encryption key has been supplied.

8560ed6fa8 [PATCH] dm: add uevent change event on resume
Device-mapper devices are not accessible until a 'resume' ioctl has been
issued.  For userspace to find out when this happens we need to generate an
uevent for udev to take appropriate action.

As discussed at OLS we should send 'change' events for 'resume'.  We can think
of no useful purpose served by also having 'suspend' events.

aa129a2247 [PATCH] dm: support ioctls on mapped devices
Extend the core device-mapper infrastructure to accept arbitrary ioctls on a
mapped device provided that it has exactly one target and it is capable of
supporting ioctls.

[We can't use unlocked_ioctl because we need 'inode': 'file' might be NULL.
Is it worth changing this?]

5c6bd75d06 [PATCH] dm: prevent removal if open
If you misuse the device-mapper interface (or there's a bug in your userspace
tools) it's possible to end up with 'unlinked' mapped devices that cannot be
removed until you reboot (along with uninterruptible processes).

This patch prevents you from removing a device that is still open.

It introduces dm_lock_for_deletion() which is called when a device is about to
be removed to ensure that nothing has it open and nothing further can open it.
 It uses a private open_count for this which also lets us remove one of the
problematic bdget_disk() calls elsewhere.

10da4f795f [PATCH] dm: add module ref counting
The reference counting on dm-mod is zero if no mapped devices are open.  This
is incorrect, and can lead to an oops if the module is unloaded while mapped
devices exist.

This patch claims a reference to the module whenever a device is created, and
drops it again when the device is freed.

Devices must be removed before dm-mod is unloaded.

fba9f90e56 [PATCH] dm: add DMF_FREEING
There is a chicken and egg problem between the block layer and dm in which the
gendisk associated with a mapping keeps a reference-less pointer to the
mapped_device.

This patch uses a new flag DMF_FREEING to indicate when the mapped_device is
no longer valid.  This is checked to prevent any attempt to open the device
from succeeding while the device is being destroyed.

ba61fdd17d [PATCH] dm: fix idr minor allocation
One part of the system can attempt to use a mapped device before another has
finished initialising it or while it is being freed.

This patch introduces a place holder value, MINOR_ALLOCED, to mark the minor
as allocated but in a state where it can't be used, such as mid-allocation or
mid-free.  At the end of the initialization, it replaces the place holder with
the pointer to the mapped_device, making it available to the rest of the dm
subsystem.

2ca3310e78 [PATCH] device-mapper: fix md->lock deadlocks in core
This patch is an attempt to fix deadlocks discovered in the core dm.

The problems boil down to md->lock having to be held in too many places, so
I've split it into two: md->suspend_lock and md->io_lock.

suspend_lock is now held throughout dm_suspended() as well as dm_resume()
and dm_swap_table() so that these functions cannot run concurrently:
there's no requirement for that and it added complexity.

DMF_FS_LOCKED becomes redundant: DMF_SUSPENDED provides adequate
protection.

436d41087d [PATCH] device-mapper multipath: Avoid possible suspension deadlock
To avoid deadlock when suspending a multipath device after all its paths have
failed, stop queueing any I/O that is about to fail *before* calling
freeze_bdev instead of after.

Instead of setting a multipath 'suspended' flag which would have to be reset
if an error occurs during the process, save the previous queueing state and
leave userspace to restore if it wishes.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
