cache_block_size . Fix a lock-inversion detected by LOCKDEP in dm-cache . Fix a dangling bio bug in the dm-thinp target's process_deferred_bios error path . Fix corruption due to non-atomic transaction commit which allowed a metadata superblock to be written before all other metadata was successfully written -- this is common to all targets that use the persistent-data library's transaction manager (dm-thinp, dm-cache and dm-era). . Various small cleanups in the DM core . Add the dm-era target which is useful for keeping track of which blocks were written within a user defined period of time called an 'era'. Use cases include tracking changed blocks for backup software, and partially invalidating the contents of a cache to restore cache coherency after rolling back a vendor snapshot. . Improve the on-disk layout of multithreaded writes to the dm-thin-pool by splitting the pool's deferred bio list to be a per-thin device list and then sorting that list using an rb_tree. The subsequent read throughput of the data written via multiple threads improved by ~70%. . Simplify the multipath target's handling of queuing IO by pushing requests back to the request queue rather than queueing the IO internally. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABAgAGBQJTPv/6AAoJEMUj8QotnQNagQYH/3EkB2f66TRfjRQpVAZuchw/ U0IbVWcMJKMdhj3uaSNzIkAbTgF+QsZUOLHP/7Q6zLq0M2J3WGrJn2ELqq53MenF E0+rJ8duKnJ5oLhhVT62ukBDh3XHWT0JyijXPWNa2gUoYwJqM9BAlXbC/OTfUNaZ mBCxvUWGME8k3ht310GhwvzBQjYuxIXhw8XlbGvakb9S83SZwNpCh231iumOEzPe Vzfx/xTto0fH3R5/knNV/H9xt0Dv4vt4Aqbqqys9UbQvPzj9qN/mxUZIFg+LZh/w WuvHHw6HcAiNNrQGFcm6i1AK2jJ+F61K3afMlYsiamTxMNM+0q/B9HemkX/0ieU= =lY8m -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'dm-3.15-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper changes from Mike Snitzer: - Fix dm-cache corruption caused by discard_block_size > cache_block_size - Fix a lock-inversion detected by LOCKDEP in dm-cache - Fix a dangling bio bug in the dm-thinp target's process_deferred_bios error path - Fix corruption due to non-atomic transaction commit which allowed a metadata superblock to be written before all other metadata was successfully written -- this is common to all targets that use the persistent-data library's transaction manager (dm-thinp, dm-cache and dm-era). - Various small cleanups in the DM core - Add the dm-era target which is useful for keeping track of which blocks were written within a user defined period of time called an 'era'.
