3d72b7dccc o rewrite of dm_user_bmap, not tested though. 2001-09-27 10:15:02 +00:00

5d0797d4ba o Kill write funcs for error/status files
o Redo write logic for table file

Well I probably won't get a chance to work on this tomorrow, so this is my
changeset to date.

steve
02f571f081 Well when things start looking so complicated that future direction becomes
non-obvious, its time to simplify :-)

 o Moving towards a simpler and more obviously correct interface
 o Removed some fs operations in directories representing volumes
 o Changed some file names
 o Made things cleaner

more changes to follow...

arguments. Errors are now reported by setting a pointer in the table to
   point to an error message.

used by the targets correctly.

d8cffcaae7 These files are now a bit closer towards what I'm aiming at. Still a lot
more to do though.

30abca7be2 Should have been included in the previous commit. 2001-09-18 16:53:18 +00:00
steve
edce87f3fb o Changed dm_create() to return a struct mapped_device rather than an int
o Changed dm_remove() to accept a struct mapped_device argument rather than
   a name
 o We no longer have to look up devices by name, the dcache handles that
   nicely for us
 o Fixed a bug where we were freeing a structure before we'd finished with
   it.
 o The name field in struct mapped_device is now only used in a very few
   places in dm.c and will be replaced in future with a back reference to
   the dentry rather than keeping the name in two places.

66bac98fc2 o New file dmfs-super.c
o dmfs-dir.c becomes dmfs-lv.c
 o dmfs-file.c becomes dmfs-table.c
 o A few tweeks and updates

The main reason for the slow progress on these files (which are not yet used
by the device mapper) is that we are working out what this interface should
look like as we go along.

Once this has evolved a bit further and in a state where it can be used we'll
announce it on the lists for further comment.

59156de92b Error checking: only allow block devices & test for 'nodev'. 2001-09-17 21:17:30 +00:00

daaf862257 o Arbitrary mount path.
o Name length 128.

9de53d4b59 o Work in progress, please ignore these files for a day or two whilst I
get everything going.

f1571e2d46 o Fixed code where return value of vmalloc wasn't checked 2001-09-17 11:23:13 +00:00
steve
bd28d06298 o Use count should be an atomic_t 2001-09-17 09:01:23 +00:00
steve
a24e4655eb o Targets now get rw passed through so they can do COW for example
o Added error handler (not sure that this is the "correct" way to do
   this at the moment, so its a bit exprimental for now)
2001-09-14 16:22:02 +00:00

20a6c8d8e5 o Support /sbin/hotplug 2001-09-14 15:35:06 +00:00

98d264faf4 o Made pending I/O wait uninterruptible 2001-09-14 14:03:02 +00:00
steve
321902a9b5 o New ioctl(): LV_BMAP which is compatible with LVM so that hopefully LILO
will work. I haven't actually tested that, but this support at least will
   be required.

8df5d06f9a Use dmfs_ function name prefix (in line with other file systems). 2001-09-14 13:27:58 +00:00
Patrick Caulfield
e69ea529cc lc->in->f_op->read expects its buffer to be in userspace so surround it in
set_fs() etc calls
2001-09-14 12:27:57 +00:00
steve
15405b1119 o As promised earlier, the device registration is now hashed and the
lists are private to dm-blkdev.c

543ca631e9 Don't store things in _devs[-1] - it's not nice. 2001-09-14 10:54:08 +00:00
steve
f184886db1 o Forgot to create slab caches for dm-blkdev.c
o Misc code tidy
2001-09-14 10:40:20 +00:00

8432ab4324 o kmalloc error check
o error file mode
The 1st Jan 1970 date I'm seeing in /dev is a devfs issue I think.
