[PATCH 00/19] md: support llbitmap reshape for raid10 and raid5
From: Yu Kuai
Date: Sat Apr 18 2026 - 23:10:40 EST
llbitmap currently tracks one live bitmap geometry, but reshape needs old and
new mapping to coexist until reshape completion. That breaks normal bitmap
accounting in three places:
- bios that cross reshape_position cannot be accounted as one bitmap range
- checkpointed dirty state must move forward as reshape advances
- interrupted reshape must resume with the same llbitmap interpretation after
reassembly
The main pieces are:
- add bitmap-side range preparation so md core uses one bitmap API
- split reshape-crossing bios in raid10/raid5 before bitmap accounting
- let llbitmap stage target geometry and remap checkpointed bits in one bitmap
- teach raid10/raid5 to provide exact old/new mapping and drive llbitmap
reshape progress
Validation
Runtime:
- custom QEMU llbitmap reshape matrix passed for raid10 and raid5:
- expanded/changed bit-state checks with query_bit
- cross-boundary writes during reshape
- heavier raid5 write path that previously warned/crashed
- degraded stop/assemble data verification after reshape
- interrupted reshape stop/assemble/continue for raid10 and raid5
- mdadm test 02r5grow passed in disk mode
The temporary query_bit validation hook is intentionally kept out of this
submission series.
Yu Kuai (19):
md: add exact bitmap mapping and reshape hooks
md: add helper to split bios at reshape offset
md/md-llbitmap: track bitmap sync_size explicitly
md/md-llbitmap: allocate page controls independently
md/md-llbitmap: grow the page cache in place for reshape
md/md-llbitmap: track target reshape geometry fields
md/md-llbitmap: finish reshape geometry
md/md-llbitmap: refuse reshape while llbitmap still needs sync
md/md-llbitmap: add reshape range mapping helpers
md/md-llbitmap: don't skip reshape ranges from bitmap state
md/md-llbitmap: remap checkpointed bits as reshape progresses
md/md-llbitmap: clamp state-machine walks to tracked bits
md/raid10: reject llbitmap chunk shrink during reshape
md/raid10: wire llbitmap reshape lifecycle
md/raid10: split reshape bios before bitmap accounting
md/raid5: add exact old and new llbitmap mapping helpers
md/raid5: reject llbitmap chunk shrink during reshape
md/raid5: wire llbitmap reshape lifecycle
md/raid5: split reshape bios before bitmap accounting
