[RFC PATCH 0/4] Low water mark disk events

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

 



Hi all,

here is a patchset to implement 'low water mark' disk events.
This event corresponds to a TP Soft Threshold Reached UA for
SCSI or a 'low watermark' event for dm-thin.
It utilises the existing 'disk event' infrastructure from the
blocklayer to send out the events via udev.
And it also cleans up the ambiguous MEDIA_CHANGE event handling
from libata, where AN (asynchronous notification) events would
be signalled via SCSI events, and polled MEDIA_CHANGE events
would be signalled via disk events.
And I've added thin provisioning support to brd, too, to have
a simple testbed for the new low water mark disk event.

As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.

Hannes Reinecke (4):
  scsi,block: enable disk event forwarding
  block,scsi: Low water mark disk event
  dm-thin: enable low water mark disk event
  brd: thin provisioning support
