Linux-2.6.12-rc2 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! 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -07:00


md/raid0: typedef removal: raid0_conf_t -> struct r0conf Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 2011-10-11 16:48:59 +11:00
md: raid0: Replace hash table lookup by looping over all strip_zones. The number of strip_zones of a raid0 array is bounded by the number of drives in the array and is in fact much smaller for typical setups. For example, any raid0 array containing identical disks will have only a single strip_zone. Therefore, the hash tables which are used for quickly finding the strip_zone that holds a particular sector are of questionable value and add quite a bit of unnecessary complexity. This patch replaces the hash table lookup by equivalent code which simply loops over all strip zones to find the zone that holds the given sector. In order to make this loop as fast as possible, the zone->start field of struct strip_zone has been renamed to zone_end, and it now stores the beginning of the next zone in sectors. This allows to save one addition in the loop. Subsequent cleanup patches will remove the hash table structure.

md: raid0: Represent device offset in sectors. Rename zone->dev_offset to zone->dev_start to make sure all users have been converted. Signed-off-by: Andre Noll <maan@systemlinux.org> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 2009-01-09 08:31:06 +11:00
md: add proper merge_bvec handling to RAID0 and Linear. These personalities currently set a max request size of one page when any member device has a merge_bvec_fn because they don't bother to call that function. This causes extra works in splitting and combining requests. So make the extra effort to call the merge_bvec_fn when it exists so that we end up with larger requests out the bottom.
