[PATCH] dm: Devices not having .iterate_devices may want to set max_io_len

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

 



After commit 5091cdec56fa "dm: change max_io_len() to use
blk_max_size_offset()" my out-of-tree driver stopped to work.
The reason is that now ti->max_io_len from such target is ignored:
max_io_len() ignores ti->max_io_len, while
dm_calculate_queue_limits() never stacks ti->chunk_sectors into
ti_limits.chunk_sectors.

Here I see two possible solutions, both are in dm_calculate_queue_limits():

1)Move ti_limits.chunk_sectors assignment down, so it will be made
right under combine_limits label. Thus, every time ti->max_io_len
will transform into chunk_sectors, even in case of device
has no .iterate_devices method;

2)Move io_hints call under the label (like it's made in this patch),
so one can set desired chunk_sectors there.

First solution looks less clear, since in two drivers chunk_sectors
are assigned in io_hints (see unstripe_io_hints() and dmz_io_hints()),
and this rewrites, and we should not rewrite it.

Second solution does not break anything since we change only
order with ->iterate_devices(device_area_is_invalid), while
device_area_is_invalid never touches chunk_sectors. So I choosed it.
