Pull Ceph update from Sage Weil:
 "There are a few different groups of commits here.  The largest is
  Alex's ongoing work to enable the coming RBD features (cloning,
  striping).  There is some cleanup in libceph that goes along with it.

  Cyril and David have fixed some problems with NFS reexport (leaking
  dentries and page locks), and there is a batch of patches from Yan
  fixing problems with the fs client when running against a clustered
  MDS.  There are a few bug fixes mixed in for good measure, many of
  which will be going to the stable trees once they're upstream.

  My apologies for the late pull.  There is still a gremlin in the rbd
  map/unmap code and I was hoping to include the fix for that as well,
  but we haven't been able to confirm the fix is correct yet; I'll send
  that in a separate pull once it's nailed down."

c3e946ce72 rbd: get rid of rbd_{get,put}_dev()
The functions rbd_get_dev() and rbd_put_dev() are trivial wrappers
that add no value, and their existence suggests they may do more
than what they do.

4a6c9ee93c aoe: allow comma separator in aoe_iflist value
By default, the aoe driver uses any ethernet interface for AoE, but the
aoe_iflist module parameter provides a convenient way to limit AoE
traffic to a specific list of local network interfaces.

This change allows a list to be specified using the comma character as a
separator.  For example,

  modprobe aoe aoe_iflist=eth2,eth3

Before, it was inconvenient to get the quoting right in shell scripts
when setting aoe_iflist to have more than one network interface.

c450ba0fc1 aoe: allow user to disable target failure timeout
With this change, the aoe driver treats the value zero as special for
the aoe_deadsecs module parameter.  Normally, this value specifies the
number of seconds during which the driver will continue to attempt
retransmits to an unresponsive AoE target.  After aoe_deadsecs has
elapsed, the aoe driver marks the aoe device as "down" and fails all
I/O.

The new meaning of an aoe_deadsecs of zero is for the driver to
retransmit commands indefinitely.

71114ec45f aoe: use dynamic number of remote ports for AoE storage target
Many AoE targets have four or fewer network ports, but some existing
storage devices have many, and the AoE protocol sets no limit.

This patch allows the use of more than eight remote MAC addresses per AoE
target, while reducing the amount of memory used by the aoe driver in
cases where there are many AoE targets with fewer than eight MAC addresses
each.

e52a293264 aoe: avoid races between device destruction and discovery
This change avoids a race that could result in a NULL pointer derference
following a WARNing from kobject_add_internal, "don't try to register
things with the same name in the same directory."

The problem was found with a test that forgets and discovers an
aoe device in a loop:

  while test ! -r /tmp/stop; do
	aoe-flush -a
	aoe-discover
  done

The race was between aoedev_flush taking aoedevs out of the devlist,
allowing a new discovery of the same AoE target to take place before the
driver gets around to calling sysfs_remove_group.  Fixing that one
revealed another race between do_open and add_disk, and this patch avoids
that, too.

The fix required some care, because for flushing (forgetting) an aoedev,
some of the steps must be performed under lock and some must be able to
sleep.  Also, for discovering a new aoedev, some steps might sleep.

The check for a bad aoedev pointer remains from a time when about half of
this patch was done, and it was possible for the
bdev->bd_disk->private_data to become corrupted.  The check should be
removed eventually, but it is not expected to add significant overhead,
occurring in the aoeblk_open routine.

bbb44e30d0 aoe: improve handling of misbehaving network paths
An AoE target can have multiple network ports used for AoE, and in the
aoe driver, those are tracked by the aoetgt struct.  These changes allow
the aoe driver to handle network paths, or aoetgts, that are not working
well, compared to the others.

Paths that do not get responses despite the retransmission of AoE
commands are marked as "tainted", and non-tainted paths are preferred.

Meanwhile, the aoe driver attempts to "probe" the tainted path in the
background by issuing reads of LBA 0 that are padded out to full
(possibly jumbo-frame) size.  If the probes get responses, then the path
is "redeemed", and its taint is removed.

This mechanism has been shown to be helpful in transparently handling
and recovering from real-world network "brown outs" in ways that the
earlier "shoot the help-needing target in the head" mechanism could not.

b91316f2b7 aoe: return real minor number for static minors
The value returned by the static minor device number number allocator is

of partitions per aoedev.

Without this fix the support for systems without udev is incomplete, and
the few users of aoe on such systems will have surprising results when
device nodes names do not match the AoE target.

0a41409c51 aoe: remove vestigial request queue allocation
Before the aoe driver was an I/O request handler, it was a
make_request-style block driver.  Even so, there was a problem where
sysfs expected a request queue to exist, so one was provided in commit
7135a71b19 ("aoe: allocate unused request_queue for sysfs").

During the transition to the request-handler style, a patch was merged
that was based on a driver without the noop queue, and the noop queue
remained in place after the patch was merged, even though a new
functional queue was introduced by the patch, allocated through
blk_init_queue.

The user impact is a memory leak proportional to the number of AoE
targets discovered.  This patch removes the memory leak and cleans up
vestiges of the old do-nothing queue from the aoeblk_gdalloc function.

fe7252bf51 aoe: copy fallback timing information on destination failover
Commit f3b8e07af774 ("aoe: commands in retransmit queue use new
destination on failure") omits the copying of the coarse-grained time
when an AoE command was sent during the failover from one destination
MAC address on the AoE target to another.

The coarse-grained timing is only used when the system time changes or
an unlikely length of time has passed since the sending of the AoE
command.  Users will not be impacted unless their system clock is very
inaccurate or something unusual (e.g., 10 GbE link reset) happens during
the period when the aoe driver is handling the failure of a port on the
AoE target.  Being effected will mean that an AoE target could be
considered "down" too eagerly.

3fc9b03248 aoe: commands in retransmit queue use new destination on failure
When one remote MAC address isn't working as a destination for AoE
commands, the frames used to track information associated with the AoE
commands are moved to a new aoetgt (defined by the tuple of {AoE major,
AoE minor, target MAC address}).

This patch makes sure that the frames on the queue for retransmits that
need to be done are updated to use the new destination, so that
retransmits will be sent through a working network path.

Without this change, packets on the retransmit queue will be needlessly
retransmitted to the unresponsive destination MAC, possibly causing
premature target failure before there's time for the retransmit timer to
run again, decide to retransmit again, and finally update the destination
to a working MAC address on the AoE target.

5f0c9c48e7 aoe: use high-resolution RTTs with fallback to low-res
These changes improve the accuracy of the decision about whether it's time
to retransmit an AoE command by using the microsecond-resolution
gettimeofday instead of jiffies.

Because the system time can jump suddenly, the decision reverts to using
jiffies if the high-resolution time difference is relatively large.
Otherwise the AoE targets could be considered failed inappropriately.

3a0c40d2d2 aoe: improve network congestion handling
The aoe driver already had some congestion handling, but it was limited in
its ability to cope with the kind of congestion that can arise on more
complex networks such as those involving paths through multiple ethernet
switches.

Some of the lessons from TCP's history of development can be applied to
improving the congestion control and avoidance on AoE storage networks.
These changes use familar concepts from Van Jacobson's "Congestion
Avoidance and Control" paper from '88, without adding significant
overhead.

This patch depends on an upcoming patch that covers the failover case when
AoE commands being retransmitted are transferred from one retransmit queue
to another.  Another upcoming patch increases the timing accuracy.

     there is going to be no more over-the-wall pulls and how the
     situation on individual pulls can be improved.

   - A few cleanups from Akinobu Mita for drbd and cciss.

   - Queue improvement for loop from Lukas.  This grew into adding a
     generic interface for waiting/checking an even with a specific
     lock, allowing this to be pulled out of md and now loop and drbd is
     also using it.

   - A few fixes for xen back/front block driver from Roger Pau Monne.

   - Partition improvements from Stephen Warren, allowing partiion UUID
     to be used as an identifier."

b8f5c6edca rbd: don't use ENOTSUPP
ENOTSUPP is not a standard errno (it shows up as "Unknown error 524"
in an error message).  This is what was getting produced when the
the local rbd code does not implement features required by a
discovered rbd image.

Change the error code returned in this case to ENXIO.

2fd82b9e92 rbd: get rid of RBD_MAX_SEG_NAME_LEN
RBD_MAX_SEG_NAME_LEN represents the maximum length of an rbd object
name (i.e., one of the objects providing storage backing an rbd
image).

Another symbol, MAX_OBJ_NAME_SIZE, is used in the osd client code to
define the maximum length of any object name in an osd request.

Right now they disagree, with RBD_MAX_SEG_NAME_LEN being too big.

There's no real benefit at this point to defining the rbd object
name length limit separate from any other object name, so just
get rid of RBD_MAX_SEG_NAME_LEN and use MAX_OBJ_NAME_SIZE in its
place.

42382b709b rbd: do not allow remove of mounted-on image
There is no check in rbd_remove() to see if anybody holds open the
image being removed.  That's not cool.

Add a simple open count that goes up and down with opens and closes
(releases) of the device, and don't allow an rbd image to be removed
if the count is non-zero.

Protect the updates of the open count value with ctl_mutex to ensure
the underlying rbd device doesn't get removed while concurrently
being opened.

13c76aba78 drbd: close race between drbd_set_role and drbd_connect
drbd_set_role(, R_PRIMARY, ) does the state change to Primary,
some more housekeeping, and possibly generates a new UUID set.

All of this holding the "state_mutex".

The connection handshake involves sending of various state information,
including the current data generation UUID set, and two connection
state changes from C_WF_CONNECTION to C_WF_REPORT_PARAMS further to
a number of different outcomes, resync being one of them.

If the connection handshake happens between the state change to Primary
and the generation of the new UUIDs, the resync decision based on the
old UUID set may be confused, depending on circumstances.

Make sure that, before we do the handshake, any promotion to Primary
role will either be complete (including the housekeeping stuff), or can
see, and serialize with, the ongoing handshake, based on the
"STATE_SENT" bit, which is set when we start the handshake, and cleared
only when we leave C_WF_REPORT_PARAMS again.

The check was introduced in 2006-09-13. On 2007-07-24 the body of the

Since then the check is useless and miss leading.

7b5a35225b loop: Limit the number of requests in the bio list
Currently there is not limitation of number of requests in the loop bio
list. This can lead into some nasty situations when the caller spawns
tons of bio requests taking huge amount of memory. This is even more
obvious with discard where blkdev_issue_discard() will submit all bios
for the range and wait for them to finish afterwards. On really big loop
devices and slow backing file system this can lead to OOM situation as
reported by Dave Chinner.

With this patch we will wait in loop_make_request() if the number of
bios in the loop bio list would exceed 'nr_congestion_on'.
We'll wake up the process as we process the bios form the list. Some
threshold hysteresis is in place to avoid high frequency oscillation.
