md: rename some drivers/md/ files to have an "md-" prefix

2017-10-17T02:06:36Z

Motivated by the desire to illiminate the imprecise nature of DM-specific patches being unnecessarily sent to both the MD maintainer and mailing-list. Which is born out of the fact that DM files also reside in drivers/md/ Now all MD-specific files in drivers/md/ start with either "raid" or "md-" and the MAINTAINERS file has been updated accordingly.

md/multipath: typedef removal: multipath_conf_t -> struct mpconf

md: remove typedefs: mddev_t -> struct mddev

2011-10-11T05:47:53Z

Having mddev_t and 'struct mddev_s' is ugly and not preferred Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: removing typedefs: mdk_rdev_t -> struct md_rdev

2011-10-11T05:45:26Z

The typedefs are just annoying. 'mdk' probably refers to 'md_k.h' which used to be an include file that defined this thing. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md/multipath: discard ->working_disks in favour of ->degraded

2011-05-11T04:38:02Z

conf->working_disks duplicates information already available in mddev->degraded. So remove working_disks. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: remove mddev_to_conf "helper" macro

2009-06-16T06:54:21Z

Having a macro just to cast a void* isn't really helpful. I would must rather see that we are simply de-referencing ->private, than have to know what the macro does. So open code the macro everywhere and remove the pointless cast. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: move lots of #include lines out of .h files and into .c

2009-03-31T03:33:13Z

This makes the includes more explicit, and is preparation for moving md_k.h to drivers/md/md.h Remove include/raid/md.h as its only remaining use was to #include other files. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md: move headers out of include/linux/raid/

2009-03-31T03:27:03Z

Move the headers with the local structures for the disciplines and bitmap.h into drivers/md/ so that they are more easily grepable for hacking and not far away. md.h is left where it is for now as there are some uses from the outside. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: NeilBrown
