2f1a7a61fc o table creation works again. 2001-09-26 19:48:20 +00:00

f9e8171a44 o remove steve's insane ramblings from my code. 2001-09-26 14:32:07 +00:00

04c89ae74c o Use ERR_PTR and PTR_ERR rather than an extra argument. 2001-09-20 19:25:58 +00:00

6c15d652d4 o Removed the error reporting function from the target constructor function
arguments. Errors are now reported by setting a pointer in the table to
   point to an error message.

de37c802d7 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)

9b90e8ee2c 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.

9f1da34243 o As promised earlier, the device registration is now hashed and the
lists are private to dm-blkdev.c

fd36a66ccc Changes to device handling;
o Only one list of block devices for all tables
 o Locking to ensure that block devices only get opened once
 o Block device handling is now in dm-blkdev.c
 o We open block devices when we create the tables and hold them open until
   the table is destroyed (this prevents the module for the device being
   unloaded after table parsing and before the table is used)
 o We compute the hardsect size when the table is created rather than when
   someone requests it.

Still to fix/change:

 o Probably want to hash the device lists in dm-blkdev.c and also remove refs
   to struct dm_bdev outside this file.
 o Need to ensure that hardsect_size doesn't change when new tables are
   swapped in (maybe this ought to be a per volume parameter and the tables
   will only parse if they match the value for the volume?).

Things are changing fast here, so if you want a stable version of thic code
try checking out yesterdays.

fee7b9e6a5 o Now we handle target modules correctly
o Moved the linear target into its own module (not really because it needs to
   be there, but because its useful to have a simple example so people can see
   what we are doing)

Btw, this needs testing properly.

3f03a60736 o first sattab at custom fs. Very rough ATM.
Mount the dm-fs filesystem on /device-mapper (will fix later).  mkdir
to create a device, inside that directory every file you create is a table
file.  If there are errors <table>.err will appear automagically.  Mv a table
file to ACTIVE to activeate the device.  I'm not happy with mv being the
binding command, symlink would be better.

f058895e26 o added global dm_table_lookup_device(path)
o changed linear target to : <device_path> <start>

a46d94071b o added reference counting to the destination devices, make sure that the
destructor for any targets you write call dm_table_remove_device.

0f29dc2f2d o split struct mapped_device into mapped_device and dm_table
o seperated loading of a table from binding a table to the device

These should allow multiple tables to be managed by dm-fs

bfba809c79 o added proper suspend/resume support, it now waits for all 'in flight' io's
to complete.

  
  moved comment to dm.h
