[PATCH 00/15] Multipath patch dump

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch set is has multiple parts.

patch 01 is just a resubmit of my previous patch, with Martin's
corrections added.

Patches 02 - 06 are miscellaneous fixes and cleanups

Patches 07 - 09 are related to adding a new format wildcard, at the
        request of HPE, that allows multipath to get and display
        information from the vendor specific VPD pages

Patches 10 - 15 are the part that needs the most review, patch 14
        especially. It turns out that on machines with a large number
        of cores, io_destroy(), which is used by the directio checker,
        can take a long time to complete. Talking to some kernel people
        at Red Hat, I was told that this isn't a bug. It's working as
        expected, and multipath shouldn't be issuing so many
        io_destroy() calls (1 per path, when multipath or multipathd
        stops). Cutting out the io_destroy calls involved a major change
        to the directio checker. It's pretty hard to test a lot of the
        corner cases on actual hardware, so I've written a bunch of
        unit tests for this (patch 15).
