The patch titled dm: support ioctls on mapped devices has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: dm: support ioctls on mapped devices From: Milan Broz <mbroz@xxxxxxxxxx> Extend the core device-mapper infrastructure to accept arbitrary ioctls on a mapped device provided that it has exactly one target and it is capable of supporting ioctls. [We can't use unlocked_ioctl because we need 'inode': 'file' might be NULL. Is it worth changing this?] Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx> --- drivers/md/dm.c | 41 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/device-mapper.h | 5 +++ include/linux/dm-ioctl.h | 4 +-- 3 files changed, 48 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff -puN drivers/md/dm.c~dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices drivers/md/dm.c --- a/drivers/md/dm.c~dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices +++ a/drivers/md/dm.c @@ -20,6 +20,7 @@ #include <linux/idr.h> #include <linux/hdreg.h> #include <linux/blktrace_api.h> +#include <linux/smp_lock.h> static const char *_name = DM_NAME; @@ -257,6 +258,45 @@ static int dm_blk_getgeo(struct block_de return dm_get_geometry(md, geo); } +static int dm_blk_ioctl(struct inode *inode, struct file *file, + unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) +{ + struct mapped_device *md; + struct dm_table *map; + struct dm_target *tgt; + int r = -ENOTTY; + + /* We don't really need this lock, but we do need 'inode'. */ + unlock_kernel(); + + md = inode->i_bdev->bd_disk->private_data; + + map = dm_get_table(md); + + if (!map || !dm_table_get_size(map)) + goto out; + + /* We only support devices that have a single target */ + if (dm_table_get_num_targets(map) != 1) + goto out; + + tgt = dm_table_get_target(map, 0); + + if (dm_suspended(md)) { + r = -EAGAIN; + goto out; + } + + if (tgt->type->ioctl) + r = tgt->type->ioctl(tgt, inode, file, cmd, arg); + +out: + dm_table_put(map); + + lock_kernel(); + return r; +} + static inline struct dm_io *alloc_io(struct mapped_device *md) { return mempool_alloc(md->io_pool, GFP_NOIO); @@ -1348,6 +1388,7 @@ int dm_suspended(struct mapped_device *m static struct block_device_operations dm_blk_dops = { .open = dm_blk_open, .release = dm_blk_close, + .ioctl = dm_blk_ioctl, .getgeo = dm_blk_getgeo, .owner = THIS_MODULE }; diff -puN include/linux/device-mapper.h~dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices include/linux/device-mapper.h --- a/include/linux/device-mapper.h~dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices +++ a/include/linux/device-mapper.h @@ -61,6 +61,10 @@ typedef int (*dm_status_fn) (struct dm_t typedef int (*dm_message_fn) (struct dm_target *ti, unsigned argc, char **argv); +typedef int (*dm_ioctl_fn) (struct dm_target *ti, struct inode *inode, + struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, + unsigned long arg); + void dm_error(const char *message); /* @@ -88,6 +92,7 @@ struct target_type { dm_resume_fn resume; dm_status_fn status; dm_message_fn message; + dm_ioctl_fn ioctl; }; struct io_restrictions { diff -puN include/linux/dm-ioctl.h~dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices include/linux/dm-ioctl.h --- a/include/linux/dm-ioctl.h~dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices +++ a/include/linux/dm-ioctl.h @@ -285,9 +285,9 @@ typedef char ioctl_struct[308]; #define DM_DEV_SET_GEOMETRY _IOWR(DM_IOCTL, DM_DEV_SET_GEOMETRY_CMD, struct dm_ioctl) #define DM_VERSION_MAJOR 4 -#define DM_VERSION_MINOR 6 +#define DM_VERSION_MINOR 7 #define DM_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL 0 -#define DM_VERSION_EXTRA "-ioctl (2006-02-17)" +#define DM_VERSION_EXTRA "-ioctl (2006-05-30)" /* Status bits */ #define DM_READONLY_FLAG (1 << 0) /* In/Out */ _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from mbroz@xxxxxxxxxx are dm-table-get_target-fix-last-index.patch dm-support-ioctls-on-mapped-devices.patch dm-linear-support-ioctls.patch dm-mpath-support-ioctls.patch - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
