ae77cbc1e7 RAID: add tilegx SIMD implementation of raid6
This change adds TILE-Gx SIMD instructions to the software raid
(md), modeling the Altivec implementation. This is only for Syndrome
generation; there is more that could be done to improve recovery,
as in the recent Intel SSE3 recovery implementation.

The code unrolls 8 times; this turns out to be the best on tilegx
hardware among the set 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16.  The code reads one
cache-line of data from each disk, stores P and Q then goes to the
next cache-line.

The test code in sys/linux/lib/raid6/test reports 2008 MB/s data
read rate for syndrome generation using 18 disks (16 data and 2
parity). It was 1512 MB/s before this SIMD optimizations. This is
running on 1 core with all the data in cache.

This is based on the paper The Mathematics of RAID-6.
(http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hpa/raid6.pdf).

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.

2c810cddc4 md: allow a reshape operation to be reversed.
Currently a reshape operation always progresses from the start
of the array to the end unless the number of devices is being
reduced, in which case it progressed in the opposite direction.

To reverse a partial reshape which changes the number of devices
you can stop the array and re-assemble with the raid-disks numbers
reversed and it will undo.

However for a reshape that does not change the number of devices
it is not possible to reverse the reshape in the middle - you have to
wait until it completes.

So add a 'reshape_direction' attribute with is either 'forwards' or
'backwards' and can be explicitly set when delta_disks is zero.

This will become more important when we allow the data_offset to
change in a reshape.  Then the explicit statement of what direction is
being used will be more useful.

This can be enabled in raid5 trivially as it already supports
reverse reshape and just needs to use a different trigger to request it.

2d78f8c451 md: create externally visible flags for supporting hot-replace.
hot-replace is a feature being added to md which will allow a
device to be replaced without removing it from the array first.

With hot-replace a spare can be activated and recovery can start while
the original device is still in place, thus allowing a transition from
an unreliable device to a reliable device without leaving the array
degraded during the transition.  It can also be use when the original
device is still reliable but it not wanted for some reason.

This will eventually be supported in RAID4/5/6 and RAID10.

This patch adds a super-block flag to distinguish the replacement
device.  If an old kernel sees this flag it will reject the device.

It also adds two per-device flags which are viewable and settable via
sysfs.
   "want_replacement" can be set to request that a device be replaced.
   "replacement" is set to show that this device is replacing another
   device.

The "rd%d" links in /sys/block/mdXx/md only apply to the original
device, not the replacement.  We currently don't make links for the
replacement - there doesn't seem to be a need.

Space must have been allocated when array was created.
A feature flag is set when the badblock list is non-empty, to
ensure old kernels don't load and trust the whole device.

We only update the on-disk badblocklist when it has changed.
If the badblocklist (or other metadata) is stored on a bad block, we
don't cope very well.

If metadata has no room for bad block, flag bad-blocks as disabled,
and do the same for 0.90 metadata.

f701d589aa md/raid6: move raid6 data processing to raid6_pq.ko
Move the raid6 data processing routines into a standalone module
(raid6_pq) to prepare them to be called from async_tx wrappers and other
non-md drivers/modules.  This precludes a circular dependency of raid456
needing the async modules for data processing while those modules in
turn depend on raid456 for the base level synchronous raid6 routines.

To support this move:
1/ The exportable definitions in raid6.h move to include/linux/raid/pq.h
2/ The raid6_call, recovery calls, and table symbols are exported
3/ Extra #ifdef __KERNEL__ statements to enable the userspace raid6test to
   compile

eea1bf384e md: Fix is_mddev_idle test (again).
There are two problems with is_mddev_idle.

1/ sync_io is 'atomic_t' and hence 'int'.  curr_events and all the
   rest are 'long'.
   So if sync_io were to wrap on a 64bit host, the value of
   curr_events would go very negative suddenly, and take a very
   long time to return to positive.

   So do all calculations as 'int'.  That gives us plenty of precision
   for what we need.

2/ To initialise rdev->last_events we simply call is_mddev_idle, on
   the assumption that it will make sure that last_events is in a
   suitable range.  It used to do this, but now it does not.
   So now we need to be more explicit about initialisation.

4044ba58dd md: don't retry recovery of raid1 that fails due to error on source drive.
If a raid1 has only one working drive and it has a sector which
gives an error on read, then an attempt to recover onto a spare will
fail, but as the single remaining drive is not removed from the
array, the recovery will be immediately re-attempted, resulting
in an infinite recovery loop.

So detect this situation and don't retry recovery once an error
on the lone remaining drive is detected.

Allow recovery to be retried once every time a spare is added
in case the problem wasn't actually a media error.

efeb53c0e5 md: Allow md devices to be created by name.
Using sequential numbers to identify md devices is somewhat artificial.
Using names can be a lot more user-friendly.

Also, creating md devices by opening the device special file is a bit
awkward.

So this patch provides a new option for creating and naming devices.

Writing a name such as "md_home" to
    /sys/modules/md_mod/parameters/new_array
will cause an array with that name to be created.  It will appear in
/sys/block/ /proc/partitions and /proc/mdstat as 'md_home'.
It will have an arbitrary minor number allocated.

md devices that a created by an open are destroyed on the last
close when the device is inactive.
For named md devices, they will not be destroyed until the array
is explicitly stopped, either with the STOP_ARRAY ioctl or by
writing 'clear' to /sys/block/md_XXXX/md/array_state.

The name of the array must start 'md_' to avoid conflict with
other devices.

d3374825ce md: make devices disappear when they are no longer needed.
Currently md devices, once created, never disappear until the module
is unloaded.  This is essentially because the gendisk holds a
reference to the mddev, and the mddev holds a reference to the
gendisk, this a circular reference.

If we drop the reference from mddev to gendisk, then we need to ensure
that the mddev is destroyed when the gendisk is destroyed.  However it
is not possible to hook into the gendisk destruction process to enable
this.

So we drop the reference from the gendisk to the mddev and destroy the
gendisk when the mddev gets destroyed.  However this has a
complication.
Between the call
   __blkdev_get->get_gendisk->kobj_lookup->md_probe
and the call
   __blkdev_get->md_open

there is no obvious way to hold a reference on the mddev any more, so
unless something is done, it will disappear and gendisk will be
destroyed prematurely.

Also, once we decide to destroy the mddev, there will be an unlockable
moment before the gendisk is unlinked (blk_unregister_region) during
which a new reference to the gendisk can be created.  We need to
ensure that this reference can not be used.  i.e. the ->open must
fail.

So:
 1/  in md_probe we set a flag in the mddev (hold_active) which
     indicates that the array should be treated as active, even
     though there are no references, and no appearance of activity.
     This is cleared by md_release when the device is closed if it
     is no longer needed.
     This ensures that the gendisk will survive between md_probe and
     md_open.

 2/  In md_open we check if the mddev we expect to open matches
     the gendisk that we did open.
     If there is a mismatch we return -ERESTARTSYS and modify
     __blkdev_get to retry from the top in that case.
     In the -ERESTARTSYS sys case we make sure to wait until
     the old gendisk (that we succeeded in opening) is really gone so
     we loop at most once.

Some udev configurations will always open an md device when it first
appears.   If we allow an md device that was just created by an open
to disappear on an immediate close, then this can race with such udev
configurations and result in an infinite loop the device being opened
and closed, then re-open due to the 'ADD' even from the first open,
and then close and so on.
So we make sure an md device, once created by an open, remains active
at least until some md 'ioctl' has been made on it.  This means that
all normal usage of md devices will allow them to disappear promptly
when not needed, but the worst that an incorrect usage will do it
cause an inactive md device to be left in existence (it can easily be
removed).

As an array can be stopped by writing to a sysfs attribute
  echo clear > /sys/block/mdXXX/md/array_state
we need to use scheduled work for deleting the gendisk and other
kobjects.  This allows us to wait for any pending gendisk deletion to
complete by simply calling flush_scheduled_work().

struct mdp_superblock_s (typedefed with mdp_super_t) according to md with
metadata 0.90, and struct mdp_superblock_1 according to md with metadata
1.0 and later,

These two types of superblock are very different,

The md_print_devices code processed them both in mdp_super_t, that would
lead to wrong informaton dump like:

159ec1fc06 md: use list_for_each_entry macro directly
The rdev_for_each macro defined in <linux/raid/md_k.h> is identical to
list_for_each_entry_safe, from <linux/list.h>, it should be defined to
use list_for_each_entry_safe, instead of reinventing the wheel.

But some calls to each_entry_safe don't really need a safe version,
just a direct list_for_each_entry is enough, this could save a temp
variable (tmp) in every function that used rdev_for_each.

In this patch, most rdev_for_each loops are replaced by list_for_each_entry,
totally save many tmp vars; and only in the other situations that will call
list_del to delete an entry, the safe version is used.

ccacc7d2cf md: raid0: make hash_spacing and preshift sector-based.
This patch renames the hash_spacing and preshift members of struct
raid0_private_data to spacing and sector_shift respectively and
changes the semantics as follows:

We always have spacing = 2 * hash_spacing. In case
sizeof(sector_t) > sizeof(u32) we also have sector_shift = preshift + 1
while sector_shift = preshift = 0 otherwise.

Note that the values of nb_zone and zone are unaffected by these changes
because in the sector_div() preceeding the assignement of these two
variables both arguments double.

The 'state' file for a device reports, for example, when the device
has failed.  Changes should be reported to userspace ASAP without
the possibility of blocking on low-memory.  sysfs_notify does
have that possibility (as it takes a mutex which can be held
across a kmalloc) so use sysfs_notify_dirent instead.

ab5bd5cbc8 md: Convert remaining 1k representations in linear.c to sectors.
This patch renames hash_spacing and preshift to  spacing and
sector_shift respectively with the following change of semantics:

Case 1: (sizeof(sector_t) <= sizeof(u32)).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In this case, we have sector_shift = preshift = 0 and spacing =
2 * hash_spacing.

Hence, the index for the hash table which is computed by the new code
in which_dev() as sector / spacing equals the old value which was
(sector/2) / hash_spacing.

Note also that the value of nb_zone stays the same because both sz
and base double.

Case 2: (sizeof(sector_t) > sizeof(u32)).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(aka the shifting dance case). Here we have sector_shift = preshift +
1 and

spacing = 2 * hash_spacing

during the computation of nb_zone and curr_sector, but

spacing = hash_spacing

in which_dev() because in the last hunk of the patch for linear.c we
shift down conf->spacing (= 2 * hash_spacing) by one more bit than
in the old code.

Hence in the computation of nb_zone, sz and base have the same value
as before, so nb_zone is not affected. Also curr_sector in the next
hunk stays the same.

In which_dev() the hash table index is computed as

(sector >> sector_shift) / spacing

In view of sector_shift = preshift + 1 and spacing = hash_spacing,
this equals

((sector/2) >> preshift) / hash_spacing

which is the value computed by the old code.

4b80991c6c md: Protect access to mddev->disks list using RCU
All modifications and most access to the mddev->disks list are made
under the reconfig_mutex lock.  However there are three places where
the list is walked without any locking.  If a reconfig happens at this
time, havoc (and oops) can ensue.

So use RCU to protect these accesses:
  - wrap them in rcu_read_{,un}lock()
  - use list_for_each_entry_rcu
  - add to the list with list_add_rcu
  - delete from the list with list_del_rcu
  - delay the 'free' with call_rcu rather than schedule_work

Note that export_rdev did a list_del_init on this list.  In almost all
cases the entry was not in the list anymore so it was a no-op and so
safe.  It is no longer safe as after list_del_rcu we may not touch
the list_head.
An audit shows that export_rdev is called:
  - after unbind_rdev_from_array, in which case the delete has
     already been done,
  - after bind_rdev_to_array fails, in which case the delete isn't needed.
  - before the device has been put on a list at all (e.g. in
      add_new_disk where reading the superblock fails).
  - and in autorun devices after a failure when the device is on a
      different list.

So remove the list_del_init call from export_rdev, and add it back
immediately before the called to export_rdev for that last case.

Note also that ->same_set is sometimes used for lists other than
mddev->list (e.g. candidates).  In these cases rcu is not needed.

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.
