    Btrfs: rename the scrub context structure · d9d181c1
    Stefan Behrens 提交于
    The device replace procedure makes use of the scrub code. The scrub
    code is the most efficient code to read the allocated data of a disk,
    i.e. it reads sequentially in order to avoid disk head movements, it
    skips unallocated blocks, it uses read ahead mechanisms, and it
    contains all the code to detect and repair defects.
    This commit is a first preparation step to adapt the scrub code to
    be shareable for the device replace procedure.
    The block device will be removed from the scrub context state
    structure in a later step. It used to be the source block device.
    The scrub code as it is used for the device replace procedure reads
    the source data from whereever it is optimal. The source device might
    even be gone (disconnected, for instance due to a hardware failure).
    Or the drive can be so faulty so that the device replace procedure
    tries to avoid access to the faulty source drive as much as possible,
    and only if all other mirrors are damaged, as a last resort, the
    source disk is accessed.
    The modified scrub code operates as if it would handle the source
    drive and thereby generates an exact copy of the source disk on the
    target disk, even if the source disk is not present at all. Therefore
    the block device pointer to the source disk is removed in a later
    patch, and therefore the context structure is renamed (this is the
    goal of the current patch) to reflect that no source block device
    scope is there anymore.
    
    Summary:
    This first preparation step consists of a textual substitution of the
    term "dev" to the term "ctx" whereever the scrub context is used.
