performance requirements that were requested by the Gluster distributed filesystem. Specifically, dm-thinp now takes care to aggregate IO that will be issued to the same thinp block before issuing IO to the underlying devices. This really helps improve performance on HW RAID6 devices that have a writeback cache because it avoids RMW in the HW RAID controller. - Some stable fixes: fix leak in DM bufio if integrity profiles were enabled, use memzero_explicit in DM crypt to avoid any potential for information leak, and a DM cache fix to properly mark a cache block dirty if it was promoted to the cache via the overwrite optimization. - A few simple DM persistent data library fixes - DM cache multiqueue policy block promotion improvements. - DM cache discard improvements that take advantage of range (multiblock) discard support in the DM bio-prison. This allows for much more efficient bulk discard processing (e.g. when mkfs.xfs discards the entire device). - Some small optimizations in DM core and RCU deference cleanups - DM core changes to suspend/resume code to introduce the new internal suspend/resume interface that the DM thin-pool target now uses to suspend/resume active thin devices when the thin-pool must suspend/resume. This avoids forcing userspace to track all active thin volumes in a thin-pool when the thin-pool is suspended for the purposes of metadata or data space resize. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABAgAGBQJUhcvVAAoJEMUj8QotnQNaB78H+wSA6sDJGOhc6e1KlWoFh4Hx hTmwm/O8Fxrp9StO3NPlcv9l+l9FX9pGzN/lo3OsxgWMTs/vLTKZ5SAe3/YT3/b9 6SFC7pC70+glakgMhhXWRvoeSEQC1OWb5BuvOF8irl2n+7B9NAn/zHd9pgpmyWHp nBXK2GJBMzVSiI47NMjo2n6007LgQq0xxSJ9luwdrpwjDqD1d406DrhzbHou5H2Y b8XJGQzUy0GZCX8ycwPVXo9svp2Bc+XajVcgOj5Qg7s2uV5car8NN7TxhSOKSXn2 VpiSyEa2MLHAbFuWtGs8XO98z/m5JlGf1eIgRO4s7w59URgpzdxOHXLlAoyqIGw= =opXi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'dm-3.19-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - Significant DM thin-provisioning performance improvements to meet performance requirements that were requested by the Gluster distributed filesystem.
