2013-06-26bcache: Track dirty data by stripeKent Overstreet
To make background writeback aware of raid5/6 stripes, we first need to track the amount of dirty data within each stripe - we do this by breaking up the existing sectors_dirty into per stripe atomic_ts Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
2013-06-26bcache: Initialize sectors_dirty when attachingKent Overstreet
Previously, dirty_data wouldn't get initialized until the first garbage collection... which was a bit of a problem for background writeback (as the PD controller keys off of it) and also confusing for users. This is also prep work for making background writeback aware of raid5/6 stripes. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
2013-06-26bcache: Fix/revamp tracepointsKent Overstreet
The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null pointer deref in one of the tracepoints. Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it was changed to an empty inline function. Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

2013-03-23bcache: A block layer cacheKent Overstreet
Does writethrough and writeback caching, handles unclean shutdown, and has a bunch of other nifty features motivated by real world usage. See the wiki at http://bcache.evilpiepirate.org for more. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
