From 43a705076e51c5af21ec4260a35699775ea298f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2009 12:49:55 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] md: support updating bitmap parameters via sysfs. A new attribute directory 'bitmap' in 'md' is created which contains files for configuring the bitmap. 'location' identifies where the bitmap is, either 'none', or 'file' or 'sector offset from metadata'. Writing 'location' can create or remove a bitmap. Adding a 'file' bitmap this way is not yet supported. 'chunksize' and 'time_base' must be set before 'location' can be set. 'chunksize' can be set before creating a bitmap, but is currently always over-ridden by the bitmap superblock. 'time_base' and 'backlog' can be updated at any time.
