Mike Snitzer 00c4fc3b1f dm ioctl: increase granularity of type_lock when loading table
Hold the mapped device's type_lock before calling populate_table() since
it is where the table's type is determined based on the specified
targets.  There is no need to allow concurrent table loads to race to
establish the table's targets or type.

This eliminates the need to grab the lock in dm_table_set_type().

Also verify that the type_lock is held in both dm_set_md_type() and
dm_get_md_type().

Mike Snitzer 169e2cc279 dm: allow error target to replace bio-based and request-based targets
It may be useful to switch a request-based table to the "error" target.
Enhance the DM core to allow a hybrid target_type which is capable of
handling either bios (via .map) or requests (via .map_rq).

Add a request-based map function (.map_rq) to the "error" target_type;
making it DM's first hybrid target.  Train dm_table_set_type() to prefer
the mapped device's established type (request-based or bio-based).  If
the mapped device doesn't have an established type default to making the
table with the hybrid target(s) bio-based.

Tested 'dmsetup wipe_table' to work on both bio-based and request-based
devices.

Mikulas Patocka 83d5e5b0af dm: optimize use SRCU and RCU
This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.

Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.

dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.

If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

Mikulas Patocka c0820cf5ad dm: introduce per_bio_data
Introduce a field per_bio_data_size in struct dm_target.

Targets can set this field in the constructor. If a target sets this
field to a non-zero value, "per_bio_data_size" bytes of auxiliary data
are allocated for each bio submitted to the target. These data can be
used for any purpose by the target and help us improve performance by
removing some per-target mempools.

Per-bio data is accessed with dm_per_bio_data. The
argument data_size must be the same as the value per_bio_data_size in
dm_target.

If the target has a pointer to per_bio_data, it can get a pointer to
the bio with dm_bio_from_per_bio_data() function (data_size must be the
same as the value passed to dm_per_bio_data).

Mike Snitzer 3ae7065616 dm: retain table limits when swapping to new table with no devices
Add a safety net that will re-use the DM device's existing limits in the
event that DM device has a temporary table that doesn't have any
component devices.  This is to reduce the chance that requests not
respecting the hardware limits will reach the device.

DM recalculates queue limits based only on devices which currently exist
in the table.  This creates a problem in the event all devices are
temporarily removed such as all paths being lost in multipath.  DM will
reset the limits to the maximum permissible, which can then assemble
requests which exceed the limits of the paths when the paths are
restored.  The request will fail the blk_rq_check_limits() test when
sent to a path with lower limits, and will be retried without end by
multipath.  This became a much bigger issue after v3.6 commit fe86cdcef
("block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking
drivers").

Milan Broz c3c4555edd dm table: clear add_random unless all devices have it set
Always clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM if any underlying device does not
have it set. Otherwise devices with predictable characteristics may
contribute entropy.

QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM specifies whether or not queue IO timings
contribute to the random pool.

For bio-based targets this flag is always 0 because such devices have no
real queue.

For request-based devices this flag was always set to 1 by default.

Now set it according to the flags on underlying devices. If there is at
least one device which should not contribute, set the flag to zero: If a
device, such as fast SSD storage, is not suitable for supplying entropy,
a request-based queue stacked over it will not be either.

Because the checking logic is exactly same as for the rotational flag,
share the iteration function with device_is_nonrot().

Mikulas Patocka 31998ef193 dm: reject trailing characters in sccanf input
Device mapper uses sscanf to convert arguments to numbers. The problem is that
the way we use it ignores additional unmatched characters in the scanned string.

For example, this `if (sscanf(string, "%d", &number) == 1)' will match a number,
but also it will match number with some garbage appended, like "123abc".

As a result, device mapper accepts garbage after some numbers. For example
the command `dmsetup create vg1-new --table "0 16384 linear 254:1bla 34816bla"'
will pass without an error.

This patch fixes all sscanf uses in device mapper. It appends "%c" with
a pointer to a dummy character variable to every sscanf statement.

The construct `if (sscanf(string, "%d%c", &number, &dummy) == 1)' succeeds
only if string is a null-terminated number (optionally preceded by some
whitespace characters). If there is some character appended after the number,
sscanf matches "%c", writes the character to the dummy variable and returns 2.
We check the return value for 1 and consequently reject numbers with some
garbage appended.

Martin K. Petersen b1bd055d39 block: Introduce blk_set_stacking_limits function
Stacking driver queue limits are typically bounded exclusively by the
capabilities of the low level devices, not by the stacking driver
itself.

This patch introduces blk_set_stacking_limits() which has more liberal
metrics than the default queue limits function. This allows us to
inherit topology parameters from bottom devices without manually
tweaking the default limits in each driver prior to calling the stacking
function.

Since there is now a clear distinction between stacking and low-level
devices, blk_set_default_limits() has been modified to carry the more
conservative values that we used to manually set in
blk_queue_make_request().

Mikulas Patocka d5b9dd04bd dm: ignore merge_bvec for snapshots when safe
Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate
whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge
function returns.  When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots
which can split them if necessary.  Snapshot I/O may be significantly
fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance.

Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size
if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't
provide a merge function.  After the patch, dm_set_device_limits
restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge
function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't
provide a merge function.

The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge
function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be
remapped.  Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can
now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge
function.  Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes,
it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the
filesystem on snapshot store.

If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function
(such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.

advertises discard support.  But, to be clear, targets that don't

requests.

Milan Broz f4808ca99a dm table: reject devices without request fns

defined before it is used.  Otherwise, misconfiguration can cause an oops.

Because we are allowing devices with zero size e.g. an offline multipath
device as in commit 2cd54d9bed
("dm: allow offline devices") there needs to be an additional check
to ensure devices are initialised.  Some block devices, like a loop
device without a backing file, exist but have no request function.

Reproducer is trivial: dm-mirror on unbound loop device
(no backing file on loop devices)

dmsetup create x --table "0 8 mirror core 2 8 sync 2 /dev/loop0 0 /dev/loop1 0"

and mirror resync will immediatelly cause OOps.

Mike Snitzer a63a5cf84d dm: improve block integrity support
The current block integrity (DIF/DIX) support in DM is verifying that
all devices' integrity profiles match during DM device resume (which
is past the point of no return).  To some degree that is unavoidable
(stacked DM devices force this late checking).  But for most DM
devices (which aren't stacking on other DM devices) the ideal time to
verify all integrity profiles match is during table load.

Introduce the notion of an "initialized" integrity profile: a profile
that was blk_integrity_register()'d with a non-NULL 'blk_integrity'
template.  Add blk_integrity_is_initialized() to allow checking if a
profile was initialized.

Update DM integrity support to:
- check all devices with _initialized_ integrity profiles match
  during table load; uninitialized profiles (e.g. for underlying DM
  device(s) of a stacked DM device) are ignored.
- disallow a table load that would result in an integrity profile that
  conflicts with a DM device's existing (in-use) integrity profile
- avoid clearing an existing integrity profile
- validate all integrity profiles match during resume; but if they
  don't all we can do is report the mismatch (during resume we're past
  the point of no return)

Instead we defer the allocation decision to MD and DM since we know at
metadevice creation time whether integrity passthrough is needed or not.

Mike Snitzer 72d4cd9f38 block: max hardware sectors limit wrapper
Implement blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() and make
blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() a wrapper around it.

DM needs this to avoid setting queue_limits' max_hw_sectors and
max_sectors directly.  dm_set_device_limits() now leverages
blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() logic to establish the appropriate
max_hw_sectors minimum (PAGE_SIZE).  Fixes issue where DM was
incorrectly setting max_sectors rather than max_hw_sectors (which
caused dm_merge_bvec()'s max_hw_sectors check to be ineffective).

Martin K. Petersen e692cb668f block: Deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use queue_limits instead
When stacking devices, a request_queue is not always available. This
forced us to have a no_cluster flag in the queue_limits that could be
used as a carrier until the request_queue had been set up for a
metadevice.

There were several problems with that approach. First of all it was up
to the stacking device to remember to set queue flag after stacking had
completed. Also, the queue flag and the queue limits had to be kept in
sync at all times. We got that wrong, which could lead to us issuing
commands that went beyond the max scatterlist limit set by the driver.

The proper fix is to avoid having two flags for tracking the same thing.
We deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use the queue limit directly in the
block layer merging functions. The queue_limit 'no_cluster' is turned
into 'cluster' to avoid double negatives and to ease stacking.
Clustering defaults to being enabled as before. The queue flag logic is
removed from the stacking function, and explicitly setting the cluster
flag is no longer necessary in DM and MD.

Tejun Heo d4d7762995 block: clean up blkdev_get() wrappers and their users
After recent blkdev_get() modifications, open_by_devnum() and
open_bdev_exclusive() are simple wrappers around blkdev_get().
Replace them with blkdev_get_by_dev() and blkdev_get_by_path().

blkdev_get_by_dev() is identical to open_by_devnum().
blkdev_get_by_path() is slightly different in that it doesn't
automatically add %FMODE_EXCL to @mode.

All users are converted.  Most conversions are mechanical and don't
introduce any behavior difference.  There are several exceptions.

* btrfs now sets FMODE_EXCL in btrfs_device->mode, so there's no
  reason to OR it explicitly on blkdev_put().

* gfs2, nilfs2 and the generic mount_bdev() now set FMODE_EXCL in
  sb->s_mode.

* With the above changes, sb->s_mode now always should contain
  FMODE_EXCL.  WARN_ON_ONCE() added to kill_block_super() to detect
  errors.

The new blkdev_get_*() functions are with proper docbook comments.
While at it, add function description to blkdev_get() too.

Tejun Heo e525fd89d3 block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive access
Over time, block layer has accumulated a set of APIs dealing with bdev
open, close, claim and release.

* blkdev_get/put() are the primary open and close functions.

* bd_claim/release() deal with exclusive open.

* open/close_bdev_exclusive() are combination of open and claim and
  the other way around, respectively.

* bd_link/unlink_disk_holder() to create and remove holder/slave
  symlinks.

* open_by_devnum() wraps bdget() + blkdev_get().

The interface is a bit confusing and the decoupling of open and claim
makes it impossible to properly guarantee exclusive access as
in-kernel open + claim sequence can disturb the existing exclusive
open even before the block layer knows the current open if for another
exclusive access.  Reorganize the interface such that,

* blkdev_get() is extended to include exclusive access management.
  @holder argument is added and, if is @FMODE_EXCL specified, it will
  gain exclusive access atomically w.r.t. other exclusive accesses.

* blkdev_put() is similarly extended.  It now takes @mode argument and
  if @FMODE_EXCL is set, it releases an exclusive access.  Also, when
  the last exclusive claim is released, the holder/slave symlinks are
  removed automatically.

* bd_claim/release() and close_bdev_exclusive() are no longer
  necessary and either made static or removed.

* bd_link_disk_holder() remains the same but bd_unlink_disk_holder()
  is no longer necessary and removed.

* open_bdev_exclusive() becomes a simple wrapper around lookup_bdev()
  and blkdev_get().  It also has an unexpected extra bdev_read_only()
  test which probably should be moved into blkdev_get().

* open_by_devnum() is modified to take @holder argument and pass it to
  blkdev_get().

Most of bdev open/close operations are unified into blkdev_get/put()
and most exclusive accesses are tested atomically at the open time (as
it should).  This cleans up code and removes some, both valid and
invalid, but unnecessary all the same, corner cases.

open_bdev_exclusive() and open_by_devnum() can use further cleanup -
rename to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_get_by_devt() and drop
special features.  Well, let's leave them for another day.

Most conversions are straight-forward.  drbd conversion is a bit more
involved as there was some reordering, but the logic should stay the
same.

Tejun Heo e09b457bdb block: simplify holder symlink handling
Code to manage symlinks in /sys/block/*/{holders|slaves} are overly
complex with multiple holder considerations, redundant extra
references to all involved kobjects, unused generic kobject holder
support and unnecessary mixup with bd_claim/release functionalities.

Strip it down to what's necessary (single gendisk holder) and make it
use a separate interface.  This is a step for cleaning up
bd_claim/release.  This patch makes dm-table slightly more complex but
it will be simplified again with further changes.

devices that support them.

A target that supports discards should set num_discard_requests to

Verify table's underlying devices support discards prior to setting the
associated DM device as capable of discards (via QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD).

Kiyoshi Ueda ecdb2e257a dm table: remove dm_get from dm_table_get_md
Remove the dm_get() in dm_table_get_md() because dm_table_get_md() could
be called from presuspend/postsuspend, which are called while
mapped_device is in DMF_FREEING state, where dm_get() is not allowed.

Justification for that is the lifetime of both objects: As far as the
current dm design/implementation, mapped_device is never freed while
targets are doing something, because dm core waits for targets to become
quiet in dm_put() using presuspend/postsuspend.  So targets should be
able to touch mapped_device without holding reference count of the
mapped_device, and we should allow targets to touch mapped_device even
if it is in DMF_FREEING state.

Backgrounds:
I'm trying to remove the multipath internal queue, since dm core now has
a generic queue for request-based dm.  In the patch-set, the multipath
target wants to request dm core to start/stop queue.  One of such
start/stop requests can happen during postsuspend() while the target
waits for pg-init to complete, because the target stops queue when
starting pg-init and tries to restart it when completing pg-init.  Since
queue belongs to mapped_device, it involves calling dm_table_get_md()
and dm_put().  On the other hand, postsuspend() is called in dm_put()
for mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, and that triggers
BUG_ON(DMF_FREEING) in the 2nd dm_put().

I had tried to solve this problem by changing only multipath not to
touch mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, but I couldn't and I
came up with a question why we need dm_get() in dm_table_get_md().

André Goddard Rosa e7d2860b69 tree-wide: convert open calls to remove spaces to skip_spaces() lib function
Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading
spaces from strings all over the tree.

It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  64688     584     592   65864   10148 (TOTALS-BEFORE)
  64641     584     592   65817   10119 (TOTALS-AFTER)

Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to
remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space".

and found occurrences of this pattern on 3 more files:
