Merge tag 'for-4.12/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - A major update for DM cache that reduces the latency for deciding whether blocks should migrate to/from the cache. The bio-prison-v2 interface supports this improvement by enabling direct dispatch of work to workqueues rather than having to delay the actual work dispatch to the DM cache core. So the dm-cache policies are much more nimble by being able to drive IO as they see fit. One immediate benefit from the improved latency is a cache that should be much more adaptive to changing workloads. - Add a new DM integrity target that emulates a block device that has additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing integrity information. - Add a new authenticated encryption feature to the DM crypt target that builds on the capabilities provided by the DM integrity target. - Add MD interface for switching the raid4/5/6 journal mode and update the DM raid target to use it to enable aid4/5/6 journal write-back support. - Switch the DM verity target over to using the asynchronous hash crypto API (this helps work better with architectures that have access to off-CPU algorithm providers, which should reduce CPU utilization). - Various request-based DM and DM multipath fixes and improvements from Bart and Christoph. - A DM thinp target fix for a bio structure leak that occurs for each discard IFF discard passdown is enabled. - A fix for a possible deadlock in DM bufio and a fix to re-check the new buffer allocation watermark in the face of competing admin changes to the 'max_cache_size_bytes' tunable. - A couple DM core cleanups. * tag 'for-4.12/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (50 commits) dm bufio: check new buffer allocation watermark every 30 seconds dm bufio: avoid a possible ABBA deadlock dm mpath: make it easier to detect unintended I/O request flushes dm mpath: cleanup QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH bit manipulation by introducing assign_bit() dm mpath: micro-optimize the hot path relative to MPATHF_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH dm: introduce enum dm_queue_mode to cleanup related code dm mpath: verify __pg_init_all_paths locking assumptions at runtime dm: verify suspend_locking assumptions at runtime dm block manager: remove an unused argument from dm_block_manager_create() dm rq: check blk_mq_register_dev() return value in dm_mq_init_request_queue() dm mpath: delay requeuing while path initialization is in progress dm mpath: avoid that path removal can trigger an infinite loop dm mpath: split and rename activate_path() to prepare for its expanded use dm ioctl: prevent stack leak in dm ioctl call dm integrity: use previously calculated log2 of sectors_per_block dm integrity: use hex2bin instead of open-coded variant dm crypt: replace custom implementation of hex2bin() dm crypt: remove obsolete references to per-CPU state dm verity: switch to using asynchronous hash crypto API dm crypt: use WQ_HIGHPRI for the IO and crypt workqueues ...
