From ac6b53b6e6acab27e4f3e2383f9ac1f0d7c6200b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2009 13:40:19 -0700 Subject: md/raid6: asynchronous raid6 operations [ Based on an original patch by Yuri Tikhonov ] The raid_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+pq+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. The operations performed by RAID-6 are the same as in the RAID-5 case except for no support of STRIPE_OP_PREXOR operations. All the others are supported: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate missing blocks (1 or 2) in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_RECONSTRUCT - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct The flow is the same as in the RAID-5 case, and reuses some routines, namely: 1/ ops_complete_postxor (renamed to ops_complete_reconstruct) 2/ ops_complete_compute (updated to set up to 2 targets uptodate) 3/ ops_run_check (renamed to ops_run_check_p for xor parity checks) [neilb@suse.de: fixes to get it to pass mdadm regression suite] Reviewed-by: Andre Noll Signed-off-by: Yuri Tikhonov Signed-off-by: Ilya Yanok Signed-off-by: Dan Williams --- drivers/md/Kconfig | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'drivers/md/Kconfig') diff --git a/drivers/md/Kconfig b/drivers/md/Kconfig index 41b3ae25b813..abb8636bfde2 100644 --- a/drivers/md/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/md/Kconfig @@ -124,6 +124,8 @@ config MD_RAID456 select MD_RAID6_PQ select ASYNC_MEMCPY select ASYNC_XOR + select ASYNC_PQ + select ASYNC_RAID6_RECOV ---help--- A RAID-5 set of N drives with a capacity of C MB per drive provides the capacity of C * (N - 1) MB, and protects against a failure -- cgit v1.2.1
