This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled libceph: don't use bio_iter as a flag to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.yuz extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.yuz tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From 282f152ee1eab0457e4f64f65f106dac7ab9a988 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Elder <elder@inktank.com> Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2012 14:57:13 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 31/78] libceph: don't use bio_iter as a flag commit abdaa6a849af1d63153682c11f5bbb22dacb1f6b upstream. Recently a bug was fixed in which the bio_iter field in a ceph message was not being properly re-initialized when a message got re-transmitted: commit 43643528cce60ca184fe8197efa8e8da7c89a037 Author: Yan, Zheng <zheng.z.yan@intel.com> rbd: Clear ceph_msg->bio_iter for retransmitted message We are now only initializing the bio_iter field when we are about to start to write message data (in prepare_write_message_data()), rather than every time we are attempting to write any portion of the message data (in write_partial_msg_pages()). This means we no longer need to use the msg->bio_iter field as a flag. So just don't do that any more. Trust prepare_write_message_data() to ensure msg->bio_iter is properly initialized, every time we are about to begin writing (or re-writing) a message's bio data.
