Subject: [PATCH 1/8] md: change chunk_sectors and stripe cache counts to unsigned int
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2026 08:54:45 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260624155452.211646-2-nishidafmly@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260624155452.211646-1-nishidafmly@gmail.com>

chunk_sectors, new_chunk_sectors, prev_chunk_sectors, max_nr_stripes,
and min_nr_stripes are never negative. Using signed int is semantically
wrong and prevents the compiler from optimizing division/modulo by
power-of-two chunk sizes to right shifts in the hot I/O path.

Change all struct fields and derived local variables to unsigned int:
  mddev->chunk_sectors
  mddev->new_chunk_sectors
  r5conf->chunk_sectors
  r5conf->prev_chunk_sectors
  r5conf->max_nr_stripes
  r5conf->min_nr_stripes
  Local: sectors_per_chunk, new_chunk, chunk_sectors

The min() in r5c_check_cached_full_stripe() required both operands to
match signedness; this is now satisfied with max_nr_stripes unsigned.
