[ Upstream commit 94c43a13b8 ]
During handshake, if we are diskless ourselves, we used to accept any size
presented by the peer.
Which could be zero if that peer was just brought up and connected
to us without having a disk attached first, in which case both
peers would just "flip" their volume sizes.
Now, even a diskless node will ignore "zero" sizes
presented by a diskless peer.
Also a currently Diskless Primary will refuse to shrink during handshake:
it may be frozen, and waiting for a "suitable" local disk or peer to
re-appear (on-no-data-accessible suspend-io). If the peer is smaller
than what we used to be, it is not suitable.
The logic for a diskless node during handshake is now supposed to be:
believe the peer, if
- I don't have a current size myself
- we agree on the size anyways
- I do have a current size, am Secondary, and he has the only disk
- I do have a current size, am Primary, and he has the only disk,
which is larger than my current size

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
