* dm persistent data: eliminate unnecessary return valuesMikulas Patocka2015-10-311-14/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | dm_bm_unlock and dm_tm_unlock return an integer value but the returned value is always 0. The calling code sometimes checks the return value and sometimes doesn't. Eliminate these unnecessary return values and also the checks for them. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
* dm btree: add ref counting ops for the leaves of top level btreesJoe Thornber2015-08-121-0/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using nested btrees, the top leaves of the top levels contain block addresses for the root of the next tree down. If we shadow a shared leaf node the leaf values (sub tree roots) should be incremented accordingly. This is only an issue if there is metadata sharing in the top levels. Which only occurs if metadata snapshots are being used (as is possible with dm-thinp). And could result in a block from the thinp metadata snap being reused early, thus corrupting the thinp metadata snap.

* dm btree: fix a recursion depth bug in btree walking codeJoe Thornber2014-11-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The walk code was using a 'ro_spine' to hold it's locked btree nodes. But this data structure is designed for the rolling lock scheme, and as such automatically unlocks blocks that are two steps up the call chain. This is not suitable for the simple recursive walk algorithm, which retraces its steps. This code is only used by the persistent array code, which in turn is only used by dm-cache. In order to trigger it you need to have a mapping tree that is more than 2 levels deep; which equates to 8-16 million cache blocks. For instance a 4T ssd with a very small block size of 32k only just triggers this bug. The fix just places the locked blocks on the stack, and stops using the ro_spine altogether.

* dm persistent data: add btree_walkJoe Thornber2013-03-011-0/+7
| | | | | | | | Add dm_btree_walk to iterate through the contents of a btree. This will be used by the dm cache target. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
* dm persistent data: use DMERR_LIMIT for errorsMike Snitzer2012-12-211-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | Nearly all of persistent-data is in the IO path so throttle error messages with DMERR_LIMIT to limit the amount logged when something has gone wrong. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
* dm persistent data: rename node to btree_nodeMikulas Patocka2012-12-211-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a compilation failure on sparc32 by renaming struct node. struct node is already defined in include/linux/node.h. On sparc32, it happens to be included through other dependencies and persistent-data doesn't compile because of conflicting declarations.

* dm: add persistent data libraryJoe Thornber2011-10-311-0/+244
The persistent-data library offers a re-usable framework for the storage and management of on-disk metadata in device-mapper targets. It's used by the thin-provisioning target in the next patch and in an upcoming hierarchical storage target.
