2009-12-10dm log: add flush callback fnMikulas Patocka
Introduce a callback pointer from the log to dm-raid1 layer. Before some region is set as "in-sync", we need to flush hardware cache on all the disks. But the log module doesn't have access to the mirror_set structure. So it will use this callback. So far the callback is unused, it will be used in further patches.

2009-04-02dm raid1: add is_remote_recovering hook for clustersJonathan Brassow
The logging API needs an extra function to make cluster mirroring possible. This new function allows us to check whether a mirror region is being recovered on another machine in the cluster. This helps us prevent simultaneous recovery I/O and process I/O to the same locations on disk. Cluster-aware log modules will implement this function. Single machine log modules will not. So, there is no performance penalty for single machine mirrors.

2009-04-02dm log: remove struct dm_dirty_log_internalMike Snitzer
Remove the 'dm_dirty_log_internal' structure. The resulting cleanup eliminates extra memory allocations. Therefore exposing the internal list_head to the external 'dm_dirty_log_type' structure is a worthwhile compromise.
