[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 0/5] mkfs.gfs2 device topology-related fixes

This patch set improves handling of various combinations of device topology
values/io limits. It addresses two main problems: misaligned devices and
devices which report strange optimal/minumum values which can not be used for
resource group alignment. Some tests which failed before this patch set are
added in patch 5.

Andrew Price (5):
  mkfs.gfs2: Add an extended option for device topology testing
  mkfs.gfs2: Warn when device is misaligned
  mkfs.gfs2: Disable rgrp alignment when dev topology is unsuitable
  mkfs.gfs2: Disregard device topology if zero-sized sectors reported
  gfs2-utils tests: Add tests for device topology handling in mkfs.gfs2
