4452226ea2 writeback: move backing_dev_info->state into bdi_writeback
Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear.  For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi.  To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.

This patch moves bdi->state into wb.

* enum bdi_state is renamed to wb_state and the prefix of all enums is
  changed from BDI_ to WB_.

* Explicit zeroing of bdi->state is removed without adding zeoring of
  wb->state as the whole data structure is zeroed on init anyway.

* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
  uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
  introducing no behavior changes.

09314799e4 md: remove 'go_faster' option from ->sync_request()
This option is not well justified and testing suggests that
it hardly ever makes any difference.

The comment suggests there might be a need to wait for non-resync
activity indicated by ->nr_waiting, however raise_barrier()
already waits for all of that.

So just remove it to simplify reasoning about speed limiting.

This allows us to remove a 'FIXME' comment from raid5.c as that
never used the flag.

d1901ef099 md/raid1: fix read balance when a drive is write-mostly.
When a drive is marked write-mostly it should only be the
target of reads if there is no other option.

This behaviour was broken by

commit 9dedf60313
    md/raid1: read balance chooses idlest disk for SSD

which causes a write-mostly device to be *preferred* is some cases.

Restore correct behaviour by checking and setting
best_dist_disk and best_pending_disk rather than best_disk.

We only need to test one of these as they are both changed
from -1 or >=0 at the same time.

As we leave min_pending and best_dist unchanged, any non-write-mostly
device will appear better than the write-mostly device.

1aee41f637 Add new disk to clustered array
Algorithm:
1. Node 1 issues mdadm --manage /dev/mdX --add /dev/sdYY which issues
   ioctl(ADD_NEW_DISC with disc.state set to MD_DISK_CLUSTER_ADD)
2. Node 1 sends NEWDISK with uuid and slot number
3. Other nodes issue kobject_uevent_env with uuid and slot number
(Steps 4,5 could be a udev rule)
4. In userspace, the node searches for the disk, perhaps
   using blkid -t SUB_UUID=""
5. Other nodes issue either of the following depending on whether the disk
   was found:
   ioctl(ADD_NEW_DISK with disc.state set to MD_DISK_CANDIDATE and
	 disc.number set to slot number)
   ioctl(CLUSTERED_DISK_NACK)
6. Other nodes drop lock on no-new-devs (CR) if device is found
7. Node 1 attempts EX lock on no-new-devs
8. If node 1 gets the lock, it sends METADATA_UPDATED after unmarking the disk
   as SpareLocal
9. If not (get no-new-dev lock), it fails the operation and sends METADATA_UPDATED
10. Other nodes understand if the device is added or not by reading the superblock again after receiving the METADATA_UPDATED message.

afa0f557cb md: rename ->stop to ->free
Now that the ->stop function only frees the private data,
rename is accordingly.

Also pass in the private pointer as an arg rather than using
mddev->private.  This flexibility will be useful in level_store().

Finally, don't clear ->private.  It doesn't make sense to clear
it seeing that isn't what we free, and it is no longer necessary
to clear ->private (it was some time ago before  ->to_remove was
introduced).

Setting ->to_remove in ->free() is a bit of a wart, but not a
big problem at the moment.

5aa61f427e md: split detach operation out from ->stop.
Each md personality has a 'stop' operation which does two
things:
 1/ it finalizes some aspects of the array to ensure nothing
    is accessing the ->private data
 2/ it frees the ->private data.

All the steps in '1' can apply to all arrays and so can be
performed in common code.

This is useful as in the case where we change the personality which
manages an array (in level_store()), it would be helpful to do
step 1 early, and step 2 later.

So split the 'step 1' functionality out into a new mddev_detach().

64590f45dd md: make merge_bvec_fn more robust in face of personality changes.
There is no locking around calls to merge_bvec_fn(), so
it is possible that calls which coincide with a level (or personality)
change could go wrong.

So create a central dispatch point for these functions and use
rcu_read_lock().
If the array is suspended, reject any merge that can be rejected.
If not, we know it is safe to call the function.

5c675f83c6 md: make ->congested robust against personality changes.
There is currently no locking around calls to the 'congested'
bdi function.  If called at an awkward time while an array is
being converted from one level (or personality) to another, there
is a tiny chance of running code in an unreferenced module etc.

So add a 'congested' function to the md_personality operations
structure, and call it with appropriate locking from a central
'mddev_congested'.

When the array personality is changing the array will be 'suspended'
so no IO is processed.
If mddev_congested detects this, it simply reports that the
array is congested, which is a safe guess.
As mddev_suspend calls synchronize_rcu(), mddev_congested can
avoid races by included the whole call inside an rcu_read_lock()
region.
This require that the congested functions for all subordinate devices
can be run under rcu_lock.  Fortunately this is the case.

b8cb6b4c12 md/raid1: fix_read_error should act on all non-faulty devices.
If a devices is being recovered it is not InSync and is not Faulty.

If a read error is experienced on that device, fix_read_error()
will be called, but it ignores non-InSync devices.  So it will
neither fix the error nor fail the device.

It is incorrect that fix_read_error() ignores non-InSync devices.
It should only ignore Faulty devices.  So fix it.

This became a bug when we allowed reading from a device that was being
recovered.  It is suitable for any subsequent -stable kernel.

34e97f1701 md/raid1: count resync requests in nr_pending.
Both normal IO and resync IO can be retried with reschedule_retry()
and so be counted into ->nr_queued, but only normal IO gets counted in
->nr_pending.

Before the recent improvement to RAID1 resync there could only
possibly have been one or the other on the queue.  When handling a
read failure it could only be normal IO.  So when handle_read_error()
called freeze_array() the fact that freeze_array only compares
->nr_queued against ->nr_pending was safe.

But now that these two types can interleave, we can have both normal
and resync IO requests queued, so we need to count them both in
nr_pending.

This error can lead to freeze_array() hanging if there is a read
error, so it is suitable for -stable.

c2fd4c94de md/raid1: update next_resync under resync_lock.
raise_barrier() uses next_resync as part of its calculations, so it
really should be updated first, instead of afterwards.

next_resync is always used under resync_lock so update it under
resync lock to, just before it is used.  That is safest.

This could cause normal IO and resync IO to interact badly so
it suitable for -stable.

235549605e md/raid1: Don't use next_resync to determine how far resync has progressed
next_resync is (approximately) the location for the next resync request.
However it does *not* reliably determine the earliest location
at which resync might be happening.
This is because resync requests can complete out of order, and
we only limit the number of current requests, not the distance
from the earliest pending request to the latest.

mddev->curr_resync_completed is a reliable indicator of the earliest
position at which resync could be happening.   It is updated less
frequently, but is actually reliable which is more important.

So use it to determine if a write request is before the region
being resynced and so safe from conflict.

This error can allow resync IO to interfere with normal IO which
could lead to data corruption. Hence: stable.

2f73d3c55d md/raid1: make sure resync waits for conflicting writes to complete.
The resync/recovery process for raid1 was recently changed
so that writes could happen in parallel with resync providing
they were in different regions of the device.

There is a problem though:  While a write request will always
wait for conflicting resync to complete, a resync request
will *not* always wait for conflicting writes to complete.

Two changes are needed to fix this:

1/ raise_barrier (which waits until it is safe to do resync)
   must wait until current_window_requests is zero
2/ wait_battier (which waits at the start of a new write request)
   must update current_window_requests if the request could
   possible conflict with a concurrent resync.

As concurrent writes and resync can lead to data loss,
this patch is suitable for -stable.

the change to ->start_next_window might cause them to

c6d119cf1b md/raid1: be more cautious where we read-balance during resync.
commit 79ef3a8aa1 made
it possible for reads to happen concurrently with resync.
This means that we need to be more careful where read_balancing
is allowed during resync - we can no longer be sure that any
resync that has already started will definitely finish.

So keep read_balancing to before recovery_cp, which is conservative
but safe.

This bug makes it possible to read from a device that doesn't
have up-to-date data, so it can cause data corruption.
So it is suitable for any kernel since 3.11.

2446dba03f md/raid1,raid10: always abort recover on write error.
Currently we don't abort recovery on a write error if the write error
to the recovering device was triggerd by normal IO (as opposed to
recovery IO).

This means that for one bitmap region, the recovery might write to the
recovering device for a few sectors, then not bother for subsequent
sectors (as it never writes to failed devices).  In this case
the bitmap bit will be cleared, but it really shouldn't.

The result is that if the recovering device fails and is then re-added
(after fixing whatever hardware problem triggerred the failure),
the second recovery won't redo the region it was in the middle of,
so some of the device will not be recovered properly.

If we abort the recovery, the region being processes will be cancelled
(bit not cleared) and the whole region will be retried.

As the bug can result in data corruption the patch is suitable for
-stable.  For kernels prior to 3.11 there is a conflict in raid10.c
which will require care.

da1aab3dca md/raid1: r1buf_pool_alloc: free allocate pages when subsequent allocation fails.
When performing a user-request check/repair (MD_RECOVERY_REQUEST is set)

If the page allocations for one bio fails, we currently do *not* free

This patch frees all the already-allocate pages, and makes sure that
all the bios are freed as well.

41a336e011 md/raid1: fix request counting bug in new 'barrier' code.
The new iobarrier implementation in raid1 (which keeps normal writes
and resync activity separate) counts every request what is not before
the current resync point in either next_window_requests or
current_window_requests.
It flags that the request is counted by setting ->start_next_window.

allow_barrier follows this model exactly and decrements one of the
*_window_requests if and only if ->start_next_window is set.

However wait_barrier(), which increments *_window_requests uses a
slightly different test for setting -.start_next_window (which is set
from the return value of this function).
So there is a possibility of the counts getting out of sync, and this
leads to the resync hanging.

So change wait_barrier() to return a non-zero value in exactly the
same cases that it increments *_window_requests.

But was introduced in 3.13-rc1.

79ef3a8aa1 raid1: Rewrite the implementation of iobarrier.
There is an iobarrier in raid1 because of contention between normal IO and
resync IO.  It suspends all normal IO when resync/recovery happens.

However if normal IO is out side the resync window, there is no contention.
So this patch changes the barrier mechanism to only block IO that
could contend with the resync that is currently happening.

We partition the whole space into five parts.
|---------|-----------|------------|----------------|-------|
        start   next_resync   start_next_window    end_window

start + RESYNC_WINDOW = next_resync
next_resync + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE = start_next_window
start_next_window + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE = end_window

Firstly we introduce some concepts:

1 - RESYNC_WINDOW: For resync, there are 32 resync requests at most at the
      same time. A sync request is RESYNC_BLOCK_SIZE(64*1024).
      So the RESYNC_WINDOW is 32 * RESYNC_BLOCK_SIZE, that is 2MB.
2 - NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE: the distance between next_resync
      and start_next_window.  It also indicates the distance between
      start_next_window and end_window.
      It is currently 3 * RESYNC_WINDOW_SIZE but could be tuned if
      this turned out not to be optimal.
3 - next_resync: the next sector at which we will do sync IO.
4 - start: a position which is at most RESYNC_WINDOW before
      next_resync.
5 - start_next_window:  a position which is NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE
      beyond next_resync.  Normal-io after this position doesn't need to
      wait for resync-io to complete.
6 - end_window:  a position which is 2 * NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE beyond
      next_resync.  This also doesn't need to wait, but is counted
      differently.
7 - current_window_requests:  the count of normalIO between
      start_next_window and end_window.
8 - next_window_requests: the count of normalIO after end_window.

NormalIO will be partitioned into four types:

NormIO1:  the end sector of bio is smaller or equal the start
NormIO2:  the start sector of bio larger or equal to end_window
NormIO3:  the start sector of bio larger or equal to
          start_next_window.
NormIO4:  the location between start_next_window and end_window

|--------|-----------|--------------------|----------------|-------------|
    | start   |   next_resync   |  start_next_window   |  end_window |
 NormIO1   NormIO4            NormIO4                NormIO3      NormIO2

For NormIO1, we don't need any io barrier.
For NormIO4, we used a similar approach to the original iobarrier
    mechanism.  The normalIO and resyncIO must be kept separate.
For NormIO2/3, we add two fields to struct r1conf: "current_window_requests"
    and "next_window_requests". They indicate the count of active
    requests in the two window.
    For these, we don't wait for resync io to complete.

For resync action, if there are NormIO4s, we must wait for it.
If not, we can proceed.
But if resync action reaches start_next_window and
current_window_requests > 0 (that is there are NormIO3s), we must
wait until the current_window_requests becomes zero.
When current_window_requests becomes zero,  start_next_window also
moves forward. Then current_window_requests will replaced by
next_window_requests.

There is a problem which when and how to change from NormIO2 to
NormIO3.  Only then can sync action progress.

We add a field in struct r1conf "start_next_window".

A: if start_next_window == MaxSector, it means there are no NormIO2/3.
   So start_next_window = next_resync + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE
B: if current_window_requests == 0 && next_window_requests != 0, it
   means start_next_window move to end_window

There is another problem which how to differentiate between
old NormIO2(now it is NormIO3) and NormIO2.
For example, there are many bios which are NormIO2 and a bio which is
NormIO3. NormIO3 firstly completed, so the bios of NormIO2 became NormIO3.

We add a field in struct r1bio "start_next_window".
This is used to record the position conf->start_next_window when the call
to wait_barrier() is made in make_request().

In allow_barrier(), we check the conf->start_next_window.
If r1bio->stat_next_window == conf->start_next_window, it means
there is no transition between NormIO2 and NormIO3.
If r1bio->start_next_window != conf->start_next_window, it mean
there was a transition between NormIO2 and NormIO3.  There can only
have been one transition.  So it only means the bio is old NormIO2.

For one bio, there may be many r1bio's. So we make sure
all the r1bio->start_next_window are the same value.
If we met blocked_dev in make_request(), it must call allow_barrier
and wait_barrier. So the former and the later value of
conf->start_next_window will be change.
If there are many r1bio's with differnet start_next_window,
for the relevant bio, it depend on the last value of r1bio.
It will cause error. To avoid this, we must wait for previous r1bios
to complete.

We used to use raise_barrier to suspend normal IO while we reconfigure
the array.  However raise_barrier will soon only suspend some normal
IO, not all.  So we need something else.
Change it to use freeze_array.
But freeze_array not only suspends normal io, it also suspends
resync io.
For the place where call raise_barrier for reconfigure, it isn't a

61e4947c99 md: Fix skipping recovery for read-only arrays.
Since:
        commit 7ceb17e87b
        md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.

spares are activated on a read-only array. In case of raid1 and raid10
personalities it causes that not-in-sync devices are marked in-sync
without checking if recovery has been finished.

If a read-only array is degraded and one of its devices is not in-sync
(because the array has been only partially recovered) recovery will be skipped.

This patch adds checking if recovery has been finished before marking a device
in-sync for raid1 and raid10 personalities. In case of raid5 personality
such condition is already present (at raid5.c:6029).

Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption.

30bc9b5387 md/raid1: fix bio handling problems in process_checks()
Recent change to use bio_copy_data() in raid1 when repairing
an array is faulty.

The underlying may have changed the bio in various ways using
bio_advance and these need to be undone not just for the 'sbio' which
is being copied to, but also the 'pbio' (primary) which is being
copied from.

So perform the reset on all bios that were read from and do it early.

This also ensure that the sbio->bi_io_vec[j].bv_len passed to
memcmp is correct.

This fixes a crash during a 'check' of a RAID1 array.  The crash was
introduced in 3.10 so this is suitable for 3.10-stable.

DM RAID: Add ability to restore transiently failed devices on resume

This patch adds code to the resume function to check over the devices
in the RAID array.  If any are found to be marked as failed and their
superblocks can be read, an attempt is made to reintegrate them into
the array.  This allows the user to refresh the array with a simple
suspend and resume of the array - rather than having to load a
completely new table, allocate and initialize all the structures and
throw away the old instantiation.

5026d7a9b2 md/raid1,5,10: Disable WRITE SAME until a recovery strategy is in place
There are cases where the kernel will believe that the WRITE SAME
command is supported by a block device which does not, in fact,
support WRITE SAME.  This currently happens for SATA drivers behind a
SAS controller, but there are probably a hundred other ways that can
happen, including drive firmware bugs.

After receiving an error for WRITE SAME the block layer will retry the
request as a plain write of zeroes, but mdraid will consider the
failure as fatal and consider the drive failed.  This has the effect
that all the mirrors containing a specific set of data are each
offlined in very rapid succession resulting in data loss.

However, just bouncing the request back up to the block layer isn't
ideal either, because the whole initial request-retry sequence should
be inside the write bitmap fence, which probably means that md needs
to do its own conversion of WRITE SAME to write zero.

Until the failure scenario has been sorted out, disable WRITE SAME for
raid1, raid5, and raid10.

[neilb: added raid5]

This patch is appropriate for any -stable since 3.7 when write_same
support was added.

e2d5992522 md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places.
Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they
really should call freeze_array.
The former is only intended to be called from "make_request".
The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to
flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the
management thread.

Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock.  Using freeze_array
should not.

As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in
handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass
it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore.

The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits
050b66152f (raid10) and 6b740b8d79 (raid1) which
appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable
kernel since then.

This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and
will need to be applied by hand.

3056e3aec8 md/raid1: consider WRITE as successful only if at least one non-Faulty and non-rebuilding drive completed it.
Without that fix, the following scenario could happen:

- RAID1 with drives A and B; drive B was freshly-added and is rebuilding
- Drive A fails
- WRITE request arrives to the array. It is failed by drive A, so
r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_WriteError, but the rebuilding drive B
succeeds in writing it, so the same r1_bio is marked as
R1BIO_Uptodate.
- r1_bio arrives to handle_write_finished, badblocks are disabled,
md_error()->error() does nothing because we don't fail the last drive
of raid1
- raid_end_bio_io()  calls call_bio_endio()
- As a result, in call_bio_endio():
        if (!test_bit(R1BIO_Uptodate, &r1_bio->state))
                clear_bit(BIO_UPTODATE, &bio->bi_flags);
this code doesn't clear the BIO_UPTODATE flag, and the whole master
WRITE succeeds, back to the upper layer.

So we returned success to the upper layer, even though we had written
the data onto the rebuilding drive only. But when we want to read the
data back, we would not read from the rebuilding drive, so this data
is lost.

[neilb - applied identical change to raid10 as well]

This bug can result in lost data, so it is suitable for any
-stable kernel.

pointer to the current bvec, you pass in a struct bio_vec (not a
pointer) which is updated with what the current biovec would be (taking
into account bi_bvec_done and bi_size).

So because of that it's more worthwhile to be consistent about
bio_for_each_segment()/bio_for_each_segment_all() usage.

d74c6d514f block: Add bio_for_each_segment_all()
__bio_for_each_segment() iterates bvecs from the specified index
instead of bio->bv_idx.  Currently, the only usage is to walk all the
bvecs after the bio has been advanced by specifying 0 index.

For immutable bvecs, we need to split these apart;
bio_for_each_segment() is going to have a different implementation.
This will also help document the intent of code that's using it -
bio_for_each_segment_all() is only legal to use for code that owns the
bio.

ee0b024403 md/raid1,raid10: fix deadlock with freeze_array()
When raid1/raid10 needs to fix a read error, it first drains
all pending requests by calling freeze_array().
This calls flush_pending_writes() if it needs to sleep,
but some writes may be pending in a per-process plug rather
than in the per-array request queue.

When raid1{,0}_unplug() moves the request from the per-process
plug to the per-array request queue (from which
flush_pending_writes() can flush them), it needs to wake up
freeze_array(), or freeze_array() will never flush them and so
it will block forever.

So add the requires wake_up() calls.

This bug was introduced by commit
   f54a9d0e59
for raid1 and a similar commit for RAID10, and so has been present
since linux-3.6.  As the bug causes a deadlock I believe this fix is
suitable for -stable.

eed8c02e68 wait: add wait_event_lock_irq() interface
New wait_event{_interruptible}_lock_irq{_cmd} macros added. This commit
moves the private wait_event_lock_irq() macro from MD to regular wait
includes, introduces new macro wait_event_lock_irq_cmd() instead of using
the old method with omitting cmd parameter which is ugly and makes a use
of new macros in the MD. It also introduces the _interruptible_ variant.

The use of new interface is when one have a special lock to protect data
structures used in the condition, or one also needs to invoke "cmd"
before putting it to sleep.

All new macros are expected to be called with the lock taken. The lock
is released before sleep and is reacquired afterwards. We will leave the
macro with the lock held.

Note to DM: IMO this should also fix theoretical race on waitqueue while
using simultaneously wait_event_lock_irq() and wait_event() because of
lack of locking around current state setting and wait queue removal.

874807a831 md/raid1{,0}: fix deadlock in bitmap_unplug.
If the raid1 or raid10 unplug function gets called
from a make_request function (which is very possible) when
there are bios on the current->bio_list list, then it will not
be able to successfully call bitmap_unplug() and it could
need to submit more bios and wait for them to complete.
But they won't complete while current->bio_list is non-empty.

So detect that case and handle the unplugging off to another thread
just like we already do when called from within the scheduler.

RAID1 version of bug was introduced in 3.6, so that part of fix is
suitable for 3.6.y.  RAID10 part won't apply.

setup_conf in raid1.c uses conf->raid_disks before assigning

The consequence is that assembling an array which contains a

not include the device being replaced.

Though this doesn't lead directly to data corruption, it could lead to
reduced data safety.

So use mddev->raid_disks, which is initialised, instead.

0021b7bc04 md: remove plug_cnt feature of plugging.
This seemed like a good idea at the time, but after further thought I
cannot see it making a difference other than very occasionally and
testing to try to exercise the case it is most likely to help did not
show any performance difference by removing it.

So remove the counting of active plugs and allow 'pending writes' to
be activated at any time, not just when no plugs are active.

This is only relevant when there is a write-intent bitmap, and the
updating of the bitmap will likely introduce enough delay that
the single-threading of bitmap updates will be enough to collect large
numbers of updates together.

Removing this will make it easier to centralise the unplug code, and
will clear the other for other unplug enhancements which have a
measurable effect.

b7219ccb33 md/raid1: don't abort a resync on the first badblock.
If a resync of a RAID1 array with 2 devices finds a known bad block
one device it will neither read from, or write to, that device for
this block offset.
So there will be one read_target (The other device) and zero write
targets.
This condition causes md/raid1 to abort the resync assuming that it
has finished - without known bad blocks this would be true.

When there are no write targets because of the presence of bad blocks
we should only skip over the area covered by the bad block.
RAID10 already gets this right, raid1 doesn't.  Or didn't.

As this can cause a 'sync' to abort early and appear to have succeeded
it could lead to some data corruption, so it suitable for -stable.

12cee5a8a2 md/raid1: prevent merging too large request
For SSD, if request size exceeds specific value (optimal io size), request size
isn't important for bandwidth. In such condition, if making request size bigger
will cause some disks idle, the total throughput will actually drop. A good
example is doing a readahead in a two-disk raid1 setup.

So when should we split big requests? We absolutly don't want to split big
request to very small requests. Even in SSD, big request transfer is more
efficient. This patch only considers request with size above optimal io size.

If all disks are busy, is it worth doing a split? Say optimal io size is 16k,
two requests 32k and two disks. We can let each disk run one 32k request, or
split the requests to 4 16k requests and each disk runs two. It's hard to say
which case is better, depending on hardware.

So only consider case where there are idle disks. For readahead, split is
always better in this case. And in my test, below patch can improve > 30%
thoughput. Hmm, not 100%, because disk isn't 100% busy.

Such case can happen not just in readahead, for example, in directio. But I
suppose directio usually will have bigger IO depth and make all disks busy, so
I ignored it.

Note: if the raid uses any hard disk, we don't prevent merging. That will make
performace worse.

9dedf60313 md/raid1: read balance chooses idlest disk for SSD
SSD hasn't spindle, distance between requests means nothing. And the original
distance based algorithm sometimes can cause severe performance issue for SSD
raid.

Considering two thread groups, one accesses file A, the other access file B.
The first group will access one disk and the second will access the other disk,
because requests are near from one group and far between groups. In this case,
read balance might keep one disk very busy but the other relative idle.  For
SSD, we should try best to distribute requests to as many disks as possible.
There isn't spindle move penality anyway.

With below patch, I can see more than 50% throughput improvement sometimes
depending on workloads.

The only exception is small requests can be merged to a big request which
typically can drive higher throughput for SSD too. Such small requests are
sequential reads. Unlike hard disk, sequential read which can't be merged (for
example direct IO, or read without readahead) can be ignored for SSD. Again
there is no spindle move penality. readahead dispatches small requests and such
requests can be merged.

Last patch can help detect sequential read well, at least if concurrent read
number isn't greater than raid disk number. In that case, distance based
algorithm doesn't work well too.

V2: For hard disk and SSD mixed raid, doesn't use distance based algorithm for
random IO too. This makes the algorithm generic for raid with SSD.

commit 4367af5561
   md/raid1: clear bad-block record when write succeeds.

Added a 'reschedule_retry' call possibility at the end of
end_sync_write, but didn't add matching code at the end of
sync_request_write.  So if the writes complete very quickly, or
scheduling makes it seem that way, then we can miss rescheduling
the request and the resync could hang.

Also commit 73d5c38a95
    md: avoid races when stopping resync.

Fix a race condition in this same code in end_sync_write but didn't
make the change in sync_request_write.

This patch updates sync_request_write to fix both of those.
Patch is suitable for 3.1 and later kernels.

2d4f4f3384 md/raid1: fix use-after-free bug in RAID1 data-check code.
This bug has been present ever since data-check was introduce
in 2.6.16.  However it would only fire if a data-check were
done on a degraded array, which was only possible if the array
has 3 or more devices.  This is certainly possible, but is quite
uncommon.

Since hot-replace was added in 3.3 it can happen more often as
the same condition can arise if not all possible replacements are
present.

The problem is that as soon as we submit the last read request, the
'r1_bio' structure could be freed at any time, so we really should
stop looking at it.  If the last device is being read from we will
stop looking at it.  However if the last device is not due to be read
from, we will still check the bio pointer in the r1_bio, but the
r1_bio might already be free.

So use the read_targets counter to make sure we stop looking for bios
to submit as soon as we have submitted them all.

This fix is suitable for any -stable kernel since 2.6.16.

b357f04a67 md: fix up plugging (again).
The value returned by "mddev_check_plug" is only valid until the
next 'schedule' as that will unplug things.  This could happen at any
call to mempool_alloc.
So just calling mddev_check_plug at the start doesn't really make
sense.

So call it just before, or just after, queuing things for the thread.
As the action that happens at unplug is to wake the thread, this makes
lots of sense.
If we cannot add a plug (which requires a small GFP_ATOMIC alloc) we
wake thread immediately.

RAID5 is a bit different.  Requests are queued for the thread and the
thread is woken by release_stripe.  So we don't need to wake the
thread on failure.
However the thread doesn't perform certain actions when there is any
active plug, so it is important to install a plug before waking the
thread.  So for RAID5 we install the plug *before* queuing the request
and waking the thread.

Without this patch it is possible for raid1 or raid10 to queue a
request without then waking the thread, resulting in the array locking
up.

Also change raid10 to only flush_pending_write when there are not
active plugs, just like raid1.

This patch is suitable for 3.0 or later.  I plan to submit it to
-stable, but I'll like to let it spend a few weeks in mainline
first to be sure it is completely safe.

32644afd89 md/raid1: fix bug in read_balance introduced by hot-replace
When we added hot_replace we doubled the number of devices
that could be in a RAID1 array.  So we doubled how far read_balance
would search.  Unfortunately we didn't double the point at which
it looped back to the beginning - so it effectively loops over
all non-replacement disks twice.
This doesn't cause bad behaviour, but it pointless and means we
never read from replacement devices.

c6563a8c38 md: add possibility to change data-offset for devices.
When reshaping we can avoid costly intermediate backup by
changing the 'start' address of the array on the device
(if there is enough room).

So as a first step, allow such a change to be requested
through sysfs, and recorded in v1.x metadata.

(As we didn't previous check that all 'pad' fields were zero,
 we need a new FEATURE flag for this.
 A (belatedly) check that all remaining 'pad' fields are
 zero to avoid a repeat of this)

The new data offset must be requested separately for each device.
This allows each to have a different change in the data offset.
This is not likely to be used often but as data_offset can be
set per-device, new_data_offset should be too.

This patch also removes the 'acknowledged' arg to rdev_set_badblocks as
it is never used and never will be.  At the same time we add a new
arg ('in_new') which is currently always zero but will be used more
soon.

When a reshape finishes we will need to update the data_offset
and rdev->sectors.  So provide an exported function to do that.

6b740b8d79 md/raid1: handle merge_bvec_fn in member devices.
Currently we don't honour merge_bvec_fn in member devices so if there
is one, we force all requests to be single-page at most.
This is not ideal.

So create a raid1 merge_bvec_fn to check that function in children
as well.

This introduces a small problem.  There is no locking around calls
the ->merge_bvec_fn and subsequent calls to ->make_request.  So a
device added between these could end up getting a request which
violates its merge_bvec_fn.

Currently the best we can do is synchronize_sched().  This will work
providing no preemption happens.  If there is is preemption, we just
have to hope that new devices are largely consistent with old devices.

dafb20fa34 md: tidy up rdev_for_each usage.
md.h has an 'rdev_for_each()' macro for iterating the rdevs in an
mddev.  However it uses the 'safe' version of list_for_each_entry,
and so requires the extra variable, but doesn't include 'safe' in the
name, which is useful documentation.

Consequently some places use this safe version without needing it, and
many use an explicity list_for_each entry.

So:
 - rename rdev_for_each to rdev_for_each_safe
 - create a new rdev_for_each which uses the plain
   list_for_each_entry,
 - use the 'safe' version only where needed, and convert all other
   list_for_each_entry calls to use rdev_for_each.

d6b42dcb99 md/raid1,raid10: avoid deadlock during resync/recovery.
If RAID1 or RAID10 is used under LVM or some other stacking
block device, it is possible to enter a deadlock during
resync or recovery.
This can happen if the upper level block device creates
two requests to the RAID1 or RAID10.  The first request gets
processed, blocks recovery and queue requests for underlying
requests in current->bio_list.  A resync request then starts
which will wait for those requests and block new IO.

But then the second request to the RAID1/10 will be attempted
and it cannot progress until the resync request completes,
which cannot progress until the underlying device requests complete,
which are on a queue behind that second request.

So allow that second request to proceed even though there is
a resync request about to start.

This is suitable for any -stable kernel.

d890fa2b05 md: Fix some bugs in recovery_disabled handling.
In 3.0 we changed the way recovery_disabled was handle so that instead
of testing against zero, we test an mddev-> value against a conf->
value.
Two problems:
  1/ one place in raid1 was missed and still sets to '1'.
  2/ We didn't explicitly set the conf-> value at array creation
     time.
     It defaulted to '0' just like the mddev value does so they
     could appear equal and thus disable recovery.
     This did not affect normal 'md' as it calls bind_rdev_to_array
     which changes the mddev value.  However the dmraid interface
     doesn't call this and so doesn't change ->recovery_disabled; so at
     array start all recovery is incorrectly disabled.

So initialise the 'conf' value to one less that the mddev value, so
the will only be the same when explicitly set that way.

34db0cd60f md: add proper write-congestion reporting to RAID1 and RAID10.
RAID1 and RAID10 handle write requests by queuing them for handling by
a separate thread.  This is because when a write-intent-bitmap is
active we might need to update the bitmap first, so it is good to
queue a lot of writes, then do one big bitmap update for them all.

However writeback request devices to appear to be congested after a
while so it can make some guesstimate of throughput.  The infinite
queue defeats that (note that RAID5 has already has a finite queue so
it doesn't suffer from this problem).

So impose a limit on the number of pending write requests.  By default
it is 1024 which seems to be generally suitable.  Make it configurable
via module option just in case someone finds a regression.

01f96c0a99 md: Avoid waking up a thread after it has been freed.
Two related problems:

1/ some error paths call "md_unregister_thread(mddev->thread)"
   without subsequently clearing ->thread.  A subsequent call
   to mddev_unlock will try to wake the thread, and crash.

2/ Most calls to md_wakeup_thread are protected against the thread
   disappeared either by:
      - holding the ->mutex
      - having an active request, so something else must be keeping
        the array active.
   However mddev_unlock calls md_wakeup_thread after dropping the
   mutex and without any certainty of an active request, so the
   ->thread could theoretically disappear.
   So we need a spinlock to provide some protections.

So change md_unregister_thread to take a pointer to the thread
pointer, and ensure that it always does the required locking, and
clears the pointer properly.

079fa166a2 md/raid1,10: Remove use-after-free bug in make_request.
A single request to RAID1 or RAID10 might result in multiple
requests if there are known bad blocks that need to be avoided.

To detect if we need to submit another write request we test:
 	if (sectors_handled < (bio->bi_size >> 9)) {

However this is after we call **_write_done() so the 'bio' no longer
belongs to us - the writes could have completed and the bio freed.

So move the **_write_done call until after the test against
bio->bi_size.

de393cdea6 md: make it easier to wait for bad blocks to be acknowledged.
It is only safe to choose not to write to a bad block if that bad
block is safely recorded in metadata - i.e. if it has been
'acknowledged'.

If it hasn't we need to wait for the acknowledgement.

We support that using rdev->blocked wait and
md_wait_for_blocked_rdev by introducing a new device flag
'BlockedBadBlock'.

This flag is only advisory.
It is cleared whenever we acknowledge a bad block, so that a waiter
can re-check the particular bad blocks that it is interested it.

It should be set by a caller when they find they need to wait.
This (set after test) is inherently racy, but as
md_wait_for_blocked_rdev already has a timeout, losing the race will
have minimal impact.

When we clear "Blocked" was also clear "BlockedBadBlocks" incase it
was set incorrectly (see above race).

We also modify the way we manage 'Blocked' to fit better with the new
handling of 'BlockedBadBlocks' and to make it consistent between
externally managed and internally managed metadata.   This requires
that each raidXd loop checks if the metadata needs to be written and
triggers a write (md_check_recovery) if needed.  Otherwise a queued
write request might cause raidXd to wait for the metadata to write,
and only that thread can write it.

Before writing metadata, we set FaultRecorded for all devices that
are Faulty, then after writing the metadata we clear Blocked for any
device for which the Fault was certainly Recorded.

The 'faulty' device flag now appears in sysfs if the device is faulty
*or* it has unacknowledged bad blocks.  So user-space which does not
understand bad blocks can continue to function correctly.
User space which does, should not assume a device is faulty until it
sees the 'faulty' flag, and then sees the list of unacknowledged bad
blocks is empty.

d2eb35acfd md/raid1: avoid reading from known bad blocks.
Now that we have a bad block list, we should not read from those
blocks.
There are several main parts to this:
  1/ read_balance needs to check for bad blocks, and return not only
     the chosen device, but also how many good blocks are available
     there.
  2/ fix_read_error needs to avoid trying to read from bad blocks.
  3/ read submission must be ready to issue multiple reads to
     different devices as different bad blocks on different devices
     could mean that a single large read cannot be served by any one
     device, but can still be served by the array.
     This requires keeping count of the number of outstanding requests
     per bio.  This count is stored in 'bi_phys_segments'
  4/ retrying a read needs to also be ready to submit a smaller read
     and queue another request for the rest.

This does not yet handle bad blocks when reading to perform resync,
recovery, or check.

'md_trim_bio' will also be used for RAID10, so put it in md.c and
export it.

5389042ffa md: change managed of recovery_disabled.
If we hit a read error while recovering a mirror, we want to abort the
recovery without necessarily failing the disk - as having a disk this
a read error is better than not having an array at all.

Currently this is managed with a per-array flag "recovery_disabled"
and is only implemented for RAID1.  For RAID10 we will need finer
grained control as we might want to disable recovery for individual
devices separately.

So push more of the decision making into the personality.
'recovery_disabled' is now a 'cookie' which is copied when the
personality want to disable recovery and is changed when a device is
added to the array as this is used as a trigger to 'try recovery
again'.

This will allow RAID10 to get the control that it needs.

b098636cf0 md: allow resync_start to be set while an array is active.
The sysfs attribute 'resync_start' (known internally as recovery_cp),
records where a resync is up to.  A value of 0 means the array is
not known to be in-sync at all.  A value of MaxSector means the array
is believed to be fully in-sync.

When the size of member devices of an array (RAID1,RAID4/5/6) is
increased, the array can be increased to match.  This process sets
resync_start to the old end-of-device offset so that the new part of
the array gets resynced.

However with RAID1 (and RAID6) a resync is not technically necessary
and may be undesirable.  So it would be good if the implied resync
after the array is resized could be avoided.

So: change 'resync_start' so the value can be changed while the array
is active, and as a precaution only allow it to be changed while
resync/recovery is 'frozen'.  Changing it once resync has started is
not going to be useful anyway.

This allows the array to be resized without a resync by:
  write 'frozen' to 'sync_action'
  write new size to 'component_size' (this will set resync_start)
  write 'none' to 'resync_start'
  write 'idle' to 'sync_action'.

Also slightly improve some tests on recovery_cp when resizing
raid1/raid5.  Now that an arbitrary value could be set we should be
more careful in our tests.

7ca78d57d1 md/raid1: try fix_sync_read_error before process_checks.
If we get a read error during resync/recovery we current repeat with
single-page reads to find out just where the error is, and possibly
read each page from a different device.

With check/repair we don't currently do that, we just fail.
However it is possible that while all devices fail on the large 64K
read, we might be able to satisfy each 4K from one device or another.

So call fix_sync_read_error before process_checks to maximise the
chance of finding good data and writing it out to the devices with
read errors.

For this to work, we need to set the 'uptodate' flags properly after
fix_sync_read_error has succeeded.

so that in the 'recovery_disabled' case, the device will be removed.

6746557f03 md: use bio_kmalloc rather than bio_alloc when failure is acceptable.
bio_alloc can never fail (as it uses a mempool) but an block
indefinitely, especially if the caller is holding a reference to a

So these to places which both handle failure and hold multiple bios
should not use bio_alloc, they should use bio_kmalloc.

4e78064f42 md: Fix possible deadlock with multiple mempool allocations.
It is not safe to allocate from a mempool while holding an item
previously allocated from that mempool as that can deadlock when the
mempool is close to exhaustion.

So don't use a bio list to collect the bios to write to multiple
devices in raid1 and raid10.
Instead queue each bio as it becomes available so an unplug will
activate all previously allocated bios and so a new bio has a chance
of being allocated.

This means we must set the 'remaining' count to '1' before submitting
any requests, then when all are submitted, decrement 'remaining' and
possible handle the write completion at that point.

7571ae887d md/raid1: avoid overflow in raid1 resync when bitmap is in use.
bitmap_start_sync returns - via a pass-by-reference variable - the
number of sectors before we need to check with the bitmap again.
Since commit ef42567335 this number can be substantially larger,
2^27 is a common value.

Unfortunately it is an 'int' and so when raid1.c:sync_request shifts
it 9 places to the left it becomes 0.  This results in a zero-length
read which the scsi layer justifiably complains about.

This patch just removes the shift so the common case becomes safe with
a trivially-correct patch.

In the next merge window we will convert this 'int' to a 'sector_t'

e9c7469bb4 md: implment REQ_FLUSH/FUA support
This patch converts md to support REQ_FLUSH/FUA instead of now
deprecated REQ_HARDBARRIER.  In the core part (md.c), the following
changes are notable.

* Unlike REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA don't interfere with
  processing of other requests and thus there is no reason to mark the
  queue congested while FLUSH/FUA is in progress.

* REQ_FLUSH/FUA failures are final and its users don't need retry
  logic.  Retry logic is removed.

* Preflush needs to be issued to all member devices but FUA writes can
  be handled the same way as other writes - their processing can be
  deferred to request_queue of member devices.  md_barrier_request()
  is renamed to md_flush_request() and simplified accordingly.

For linear, raid0 and multipath, the core changes are enough.  raid1,
5 and 10 need the following conversions.

* raid1: Handling of FLUSH/FUA bio's can simply be deferred to
  request_queues of member devices.  Barrier related logic removed.

* raid5: Queue draining logic dropped.  FUA bit is propagated through
  biodrain and stripe resconstruction such that all the updated parts
  of the stripe are written out with FUA writes if any of the dirtying
  writes was FUA.  preread_active_stripes handling in make_request()
  is updated as suggested by Neil Brown.

* raid10: FUA bit needs to be propagated to write clones.

linear, raid0, 1, 5 and 10 tested.

If all devices are write-behind (because the rest have failed)
it is possible for a read request to be serviced before a

964147d5c8 md/raid1: fix counting of write targets.
There is a very small race window when writing to a
RAID1 such that if a device is marked faulty at exactly the wrong
time, the write-in-progress will not be sent to the device,
but the bitmap (if present) will be updated to say that
the write was sent.

Then if the device turned out to still be usable as was re-added
to the array, the bitmap-based-resync would skip resyncing that
block, possibly leading to corruption.  This would only be a problem
if no further writes were issued to that area of the device (i.e.
that bitmap chunk).

Suitable for any pending -stable kernel.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

627a2d3c29 md: deal with merge_bvec_fn in component devices better.
If a component device has a merge_bvec_fn then as we never call it
we must ensure we never need to.  Currently this is done by setting
max_sector to 1 PAGE, however this does not stop a bio being created
with several sub-page iovecs that would violate the merge_bvec_fn.

So instead set max_segments to 1 and set the segment boundary to the
same as a page boundary to ensure there is only ever one single-page
segment of IO requested at a time.

This can particularly be an issue when 'xen' is used as it is
known to submit multiple small buffers in a single bio.

d0e260782c md: revert incorrect fix for read error handling in raid1.
commit 4706b349f was a forward port of a fix that was needed
for SLES10.  But in fact it is not needed in mainline because
the earlier commit dd00a99e7a fixes the same problem in a
better way.
Further, this commit introduces a bug in the way it interacts with
the automatic read-error-correction.  If, after a read error is
successfully corrected, the same disk is chosen to re-read - the
re-read won't be attempted but an error will be returned instead.

After reverting that commit, there is the possibility that a
read error on a read-only array (where read errors cannot
be corrected as that requires a write) will repeatedly read the same
device and continue to get an error.
So in the "Array is readonly" case, fail the drive immediately on
a read error.

ac5e7113e7 md: Push down data integrity code to personalities.
This patch replaces md_integrity_check() by two new public functions:
md_integrity_register() and md_integrity_add_rdev() which are both
personality-independent.

md_integrity_register() is called from the ->run and ->hot_remove
methods of all personalities that support data integrity.  The
function iterates over the component devices of the array and
determines if all active devices are integrity capable and if their
profiles match. If this is the case, the common profile is registered
for the mddev via blk_integrity_register().

The second new function, md_integrity_add_rdev() is called from the
->hot_add_disk methods, i.e. whenever a new device is being added
to a raid array. If the new device does not support data integrity,
or has a profile different from the one already registered, data
integrity for the mddev is disabled.

For raid0 and linear, only the call to md_integrity_register() from
the ->run method is necessary.

b522adcde9 md: 'array_size' sysfs attribute
Allow userspace to set the size of the array according to the following
semantics:

1/ size must be <= to the size returned by mddev->pers->size(mddev, 0, 0)
   a) If size is set before the array is running, do_md_run will fail
      if size is greater than the default size
   b) A reshape attempt that reduces the default size to less than the set
      array size should be blocked
2/ once userspace sets the size the kernel will not change it
3/ writing 'default' to this attribute returns control of the size to the
   kernel and reverts to the size reported by the personality

Also, convert locations that need to know the default size from directly
reading ->array_sectors to <pers>_size.  Resync/reshape operations
always follow the default size.

Finally, fixup other locations that read a number of 1k-blocks from
userspace to use strict_blocks_to_sectors() which checks for unsigned
long long to sector_t overflow and blocks to sectors overflow.

409c57f380 md: enable suspend/resume of md devices.
To be able to change the 'level' of an md/raid array, we need to
suspend the device so that no requests are active - then move some
pointers around etc.

The code already keeps counts of active requests and the ->quiesce
function can be used to wait until those counts hit zero.
However the quiesce function blocks new requests once they are all
ready 'inside' the personality module, and that is too late if we want
to replace the personality modules.

So make all md requests come in through a common md_make_request
function that keeps track of how many requests have entered the
modules but may not yet be on the internal reference counts.
Allow md_make_request to be blocked when we want to suspend the
device, and make it possible to wait for all those in-transit requests
to be added to internal lists so that ->quiesce can wait for them.

There is still a problem that when a request completes, we drop the
ref count inside the personality code so there is a short time between
when the refcount hits zero, and when the personality code is no
longer being used.
The personality code never blocks (schedule or spinlock) between
dropping the refcount and exiting the routine, so this should be safe
(as put_module calls synchronize_sched() before unmapping the module
code).

All users of that field, including raid levels 1,4-6,10, are adjusted

rid of a couple of divisions/multiplications by two.

In order to make checkpatch happy, some minor coding style issues

73d5c38a95 md: avoid races when stopping resync.
There has been a race in raid10 and raid1 for a long time
which has only recently started showing up due to a scheduler changed.

When a sync_read request finishes, as soon as reschedule_retry
is called, another thread can mark the resync request as having
completed, so md_do_sync can finish, ->stop can be called, and
->conf can be freed.  So using conf after reschedule_retry is not
safe.

Similarly, when finishing a sync_write, calling md_done_sync must be
the last thing we do, as it allows a chain of events which will free
conf and other data structures.

The first of these requires action in raid10.c
The second requires action in raid1.c and raid10.c

c995905916 block: fix diskstats access
There are two variants of stat functions - ones prefixed with double
underbars which don't care about preemption and ones without which
disable preemption before manipulating per-cpu counters.  It's unclear
whether the underbarred ones assume that preemtion is disabled on
entry as some callers don't do that.

This patch unifies diskstats access by implementing disk_stat_lock()
and disk_stat_unlock() which take care of both RCU (for partition
access) and preemption (for per-cpu counter access).  diskstats access
should always be enclosed between the two functions.  As such, there's
no need for the versions which disables preemption.  They're removed
and double underbars ones are renamed to drop the underbars.  As an
extra argument is added, there's no danger of using the old version
unconverted.

disk_stat_lock() uses get_cpu() and returns the cpu index and all
diskstat functions which access per-cpu counters now has @cpu
argument to help RT.

This change adds RCU or preemption operations at some places but also
collapses several preemption ops into one at others.  Overall, the
performance difference should be negligible as all involved ops are
very lightweight per-cpu ones.

b5470dc5fc md: resolve external metadata handling deadlock in md_allow_write
md_allow_write() marks the metadata dirty while holding mddev->lock and then
waits for the write to complete.  For externally managed metadata this causes a
deadlock as userspace needs to take the lock to communicate that the metadata
update has completed.

Change md_allow_write() in the 'external' case to start the 'mark active'
operation and then return -EAGAIN.  The expected side effects while waiting for
userspace to write 'active' to 'array_state' are holding off reshape (code
currently handles -ENOMEM), cause some 'stripe_cache_size' change requests to
fail, cause some GET_BITMAP_FILE ioctl requests to fall back to GFP_NOIO, and
cause updates to 'raid_disks' to fail.  Except for 'stripe_cache_size' changes
these failures can be mitigated by coordinating with mdmon.

md_write_start() still prevents writes from occurring until the metadata
handler has had a chance to take action as it unconditionally waits for
MD_CHANGE_CLEAN to be cleared.

dfc7064500 md: restart recovery cleanly after device failure.
When we get any IO error during a recovery (rebuilding a spare), we abort
the recovery and restart it.

For RAID6 (and multi-drive RAID1) it may not be best to restart at the
beginning: when multiple failures can be tolerated, the recovery may be
able to continue and re-doing all that has already been done doesn't make
sense.

We already have the infrastructure to record where a recovery is up to
and restart from there, but it is not being used properly.
This is because:
  - We sometimes abort with MD_RECOVERY_ERR rather than just MD_RECOVERY_INTR,
    which causes the recovery not be be checkpointed.
  - We remove spares and then re-added them which loses important state
    information.

The distinction between MD_RECOVERY_ERR and MD_RECOVERY_INTR really isn't
needed.  If there is an error, the relevant drive will be marked as
Faulty, and that is enough to ensure correct handling of the error.  So we
first remove MD_RECOVERY_ERR, changing some of the uses of it to
MD_RECOVERY_INTR.

Then we cause the attempt to remove a non-faulty device from an array to
fail (unless recovery is impossible as the array is too degraded).  Then
when remove_and_add_spares attempts to remove the devices on which
recovery can continue, it will fail, they will remain in place, and
recovery will continue on them as desired.

Issue:  If we are halfway through rebuilding a spare and another drive
fails, and a new spare is immediately available,  do we want to:
 1/ complete the current rebuild, then go back and rebuild the new spare or
 2/ restart the rebuild from the start and rebuild both devices in
    parallel.

Both options can be argued for.  The code currently takes option 2 as
  a/ this requires least code change
  b/ this results in a minimally-degraded array in minimal time.

We use the same 'bio' for both read and write, resetting various fields
between the two operations.

We forgot to reset bv_offset and bv_len however.  These are often left
unchanged, but in the case where there is an IO error one or two sectors
into a page, they are changed.

This results in correctable errors not being corrected properly.  It does
not result in any data corruption.

a35e63efa1 md: fix deadlock in md/raid1 and md/raid10 when handling a read error
When handling a read error, we freeze the array to stop any other IO while
attempting to over-write with correct data.

This is done in the raid1d(raid10d) thread and must wait for all submitted IO
to complete (except for requests that failed and are sitting in the retry
queue - these are counted in ->nr_queue and will stay there during a freeze).

However write requests need attention from raid1d as bitmap updates might be
required.  This can cause a deadlock as raid1 is waiting for requests to
finish that themselves need attention from raid1d.

So we create a new function 'flush_pending_writes' to give that attention, and
call it in freeze_array to be sure that we aren't waiting on raid1d.

Thanks to "K.Tanaka" <k-tanaka@ce.jp.nec.com> for finding and reporting this
problem.

c620727779 md: allow a maximum extent to be set for resyncing
This allows userspace to control resync/reshape progress and synchronise it
with other activities, such as shared access in a SAN, or backing up critical
sections during a tricky reshape.

Writing a number of sectors (which must be a multiple of the chunk size if
such is meaningful) causes a resync to pause when it gets to that point.

b47490c9bc md: Update md bitmap during resync.
Currently an md array with a write-intent bitmap does not updated that bitmap
to reflect successful partial resync.  Rather the entire bitmap is updated
when the resync completes.

This is because there is no guarentee that resync requests will complete in
order, and tracking each request individually is unnecessarily burdensome.

However there is value in regularly updating the bitmap, so add code to
periodically pause while all pending sync requests complete, then update the
bitmap.  Doing this only every few seconds (the same as the bitmap update
time) does not notciably affect resync performance.

    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file

cf7a44168d md: make sure read errors are auto-corrected during a 'check' resync in raid1
Whenever a read error is found, we should attempt to overwrite with correct
data to 'fix' it.

However when do a 'check' pass (which compares data blocks that are
successfully read, but doesn't normally overwrite) we don't do that.  We
should.

6712ecf8f6 Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_io
As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete,
the 'size' argument is now redundant.  Remove it.

Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed
from bi_size.  So don't do that either.

While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void.

When a raid1 array is reshaped (number of drives changed), the list of devices
is compacted, so that slots for missing devices are filled with working
devices from later slots.  This requires the "rd%d" symlinks in sysfs to be

918f02383f md: make sure a re-add after a restart honours bitmap when resyncing
Commit 1757128438 was slightly bad.  If an array
has a write-intent bitmap, and you remove a drive, then readd it, only the
changed parts should be resynced.  However after the above commit, this only
works if the array has not been shut down and restarted.

This is because it sets 'fullsync' at little more often than it should.  This
patch is more careful.

4ad1366376 md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions
bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void.  Two callers try
to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed
by bitmap_file_kick.

write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked.  It always
causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more
conveniently be checked.

When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to
be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive
calls into bitmap_file_kick.

bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked.

So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

ed45666271 md: fix bug in error handling during raid1 repair
If raid1/repair (which reads all block and fixes any differences it finds)
hits a read error, it doesn't reset the bio for writing before writing
correct data back, so the read error isn't fixed, and the device probably
gets a zero-length write which it might complain about.

dd00a99e7a md: avoid a possibility that a read error can wrongly propagate through md/raid1 to a filesystem.
When a raid1 has only one working drive, we want read error to propagate up
to the filesystem as there is no point failing the last drive in an array.

Currently the code perform this check is racy.  If a write and a read a
both submitted to a device on a 2-drive raid1, and the write fails followed
by the read failing, the read will see that there is only one working drive
and will pass the failure up, even though the one working drive is actually
the *other* one.

So, tighten up the locking.

44ce6294d0 Revert "md: improve partition detection in md array"
This reverts commit 5b479c91da.

Quoth Neil Brown:

  "It causes an oops when auto-detecting raid arrays, and it doesn't
   seem easy to fix.

   The array may not be 'open' when do_md_run is called, so
   bdev->bd_disk might be NULL, so bd_set_size can oops.

   This whole approach of opening an md device before it has been
   assembled just seems to get more and more painful.  I think I'm going
   to have to come up with something clever to provide both backward
   comparability with usage expectation, and sane integration into the
   rest of the kernel."
