Set zvol discard_granularity to the volblocksize. 2012-08-07T21:55:31+00:00 Etienne Dechamps etienne.dechamps@ovh.net 2012-08-01T08:29:59+00:00 ee5fd0bb80d68ef095f831784cbb17181b2ba898 Currently, zvols have a discard granularity set to 0, which suggests to the upper layer that discard requests of arbirarily small size and alignment can be made efficiently. In practice however, ZFS does not handle unaligned discard requests efficiently: indeed, it is unable to free a part of a block. It will write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and inefficient (see dnode_free_range). With this patch, zvol block devices expose volblocksize as their discard granularity, so the upper layer is aware that it's not supposed to send discard requests smaller than volblocksize.

Linux 3.5 compat, end_writeback() changed to clear_inode() 2012-07-23T19:29:36+00:00 Richard Yao ryao@cs.stonybrook.edu 2012-07-23T18:39:25+00:00 739a1a82e0f366923e8d9bc8f9ad4b1c680a780b The end_writeback() function was changed by moving the call to inode_sync_wait() earlier in to evict(). This effecitvely changes the ordering of the sync but it does not impact the details of the zfs implementation. However, as part of this change end_writeback() was renamed to clear_inode() to reflect the new semantics. This change does impact us and clear_inode() now maps to end_writeback() for kernels prior to 3.5.

Move partition scanning from userspace to module. 2012-07-17T16:17:31+00:00 Etienne Dechamps etienne.dechamps@ovh.net 2012-07-11T13:06:32+00:00 b5a28807cdec3c05aa69cbe4689cd914dc94783a Currently, zpool online -e (dynamic vdev expansion) doesn't work on whole disks because we're invoking ioctl(BLKRRPART) from userspace while ZFS still has a partition open on the disk, which results in EBUSY. This patch moves the BLKRRPART invocation from the zpool utility to the module. Specifically, this is done just before opening the device in vdev_disk_open() which is called inside vdev_reopen(). This requires jumping through some hoops to get to the disk device from the partition device, and to make sure we can still open the partition after the BLKRRPART call. Note that this new code path is triggered on dynamic vdev expansion only; other actions, like creating a new pool, are unchanged and still call BLKRRPART from userspace. This change also depends on API changes which are available in 2.6.37 and latter kernels. The build system has been updated to detect this, but there is no compatibility mode for older kernels. This means that online expansion will NOT be available in older kernels. However, it will still be possible to expand the vdev offline.
