1081230b74 Merge branch 'for-4.3/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This first core part of the block IO changes contains:

   - Cleanup of the bio IO error signaling from Christoph.  We used to
     rely on the uptodate bit and passing around of an error, now we
     store the error in the bio itself.

   - Improvement of the above from myself, by shrinking the bio size
     down again to fit in two cachelines on x86-64.

   - Revert of the max_hw_sectors cap removal from a revision again,
     from Jeff Moyer.  This caused performance regressions in various
     tests.  Reinstate the limit, bump it to a more reasonable size
     instead.

   - Make /sys/block/<dev>/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
     Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
     when deleting files.  Enable the admin to configure the size down.
     We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX
     sectors.

   - Improvement of the SGP gaps logic from Keith Busch.

   - Enable the block core to handle arbitrarily sized bios, which
     enables a nice simplification of bio_add_page() (which is an IO hot
     path).  From Kent.

   - Improvements to the partition io stats accounting, making it
     faster.  From Ming Lei.

   - Also from Ming Lei, a basic fixup for overflow of the sysfs pending
     file in blk-mq, as well as a fix for a blk-mq timeout race
     condition.

   - Ming Lin has been carrying Kents above mentioned patches forward
     for a while, and testing them.  Ming also did a few fixes around
     that.

   - Sasha Levin found and fixed a use-after-free problem introduced by
     the bio->bi_error changes from Christoph.

   - Small blk cgroup cleanup from Viresh Kumar"

55ce74d4bf md/raid1: ensure device failure recorded before write request returns.
When a write to one of the legs of a RAID1 fails, the failure is
recorded in the metadata of the other leg(s) so that after a restart
the data on the failed drive wont be trusted even if that drive seems
to be working again  (maybe a cable was unplugged).

Similarly when we record a bad-block in response to a write failure,
we must not let the write complete until the bad-block update is safe.

Currently there is no interlock between the write request completing
and the metadata update.  So it is possible that the write will
complete, the app will confirm success in some way, and then the
machine will crash before the metadata update completes.

This is an extremely small hole for a racy to fit in, but it is
theoretically possible and so should be closed.

So:
 - set MD_CHANGE_PENDING when requesting a metadata update for a
   failed device, so we can know with certainty when it completes
 - queue requests that experienced an error on a new queue which
   is only processed after the metadata update completes
 - call raid_end_bio_io() on bios in that queue when the time comes.

985ca973b6 md: close some races between setting and checking sync_action.
When checking sync_action in a script, we want to be sure it is
as accurate as possible.
As resync/reshape etc doesn't always start immediately (a separate
thread is scheduled to do it), it is best if 'action_show'
checks if MD_RECOVER_NEEDED is set (which it does) and in that
case reports what is likely to start soon (which it only sometimes
does).

So:
 - report 'reshape' if reshape_position suggests one might start.
 - set MD_RECOVERY_RECOVER in raid1_reshape(), because that is very
   likely to happen next.

423f04d63c md/raid1: extend spinlock to protect raid1_end_read_request against inconsistencies
raid1_end_read_request() assumes that the In_sync bits are consistent
with the ->degaded count.
raid1_spare_active updates the In_sync bit before the ->degraded count
and so exposes an inconsistency, as does error()
So extend the spinlock in raid1_spare_active() and error() to hide those
inconsistencies.

This should probably be part of
  Commit: 34cab6f420 ("md/raid1: fix test for 'was read error from

b7c44ed9d2 block: manipulate bio->bi_flags through helpers
Some places use helpers now, others don't. We only have the 'is set'
helper, add helpers for setting and clearing flags too.

It was a bit of a mess of atomic vs non-atomic access. With
BIO_UPTODATE gone, we don't have any risk of concurrent access to the
flags. So relax the restriction and don't make any of them atomic. The
flags that do have serialization issues (reffed and chained), we
already handle those separately.

4246a0b63b block: add a bi_error field to struct bio
Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:

 (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
 (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback

The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario.  Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.

So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

90382ed9af Fix read-balancing during node failure
During a node failure, We need to suspend read balancing so that the
reads are directed to the first device and stale data is not read.
Suspending writes is not required because these would be recorded and
synced eventually.

A new flag MD_CLUSTER_SUSPEND_READ_BALANCING is set in recover_prep().
area_resyncing() will respond true for the entire devices if this
flag is set and the request type is READ. The flag is cleared
in recover_done().

34cab6f420 md/raid1: fix test for 'was read error from last working device'.
When we get a read error from the last working device, we don't
try to repair it, and don't fail the device.  We simple report a
read error to the caller.

However the current test for 'is this the last working device' is
wrong.
When there is only one fully working device, it assumes that a
non-faulty device is that device.  However a spare which is rebuilding
would be non-faulty but so not the only working device.

So change the test from "!Faulty" to "In_sync".  If ->degraded says
there is only one fully working device and this device is in_sync,
this must be the one.

This bug has existed since we allowed read_balance to read from
a recovering spare in v3.0

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.

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.

Also pass in the private pointer as an arg rather than using

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

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().

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.

If a read error is experienced on that device, fix_read_error()

It is incorrect that fix_read_error() ignores non-InSync devices.

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.

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.

Having an incorrect value in a counter can cause raise_barrier()
to hangs, so this is suitable for -stable.

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)
on a raid1, we allocate multiple bios each with their own set of pages.

If the page allocations for one bio fails, we currently do *not* free
the pages allocated for the previous bios, nor do we free the bio itself.

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

This bug can cause a memory leak which can ultimately OOM a machine.
It was introduced in 3.10-rc1.

1877db7558 md/raid1: restore ability for check and repair to fix read errors.
commit 30bc9b5387
    md/raid1: fix bio handling problems in process_checks()

Move the bio_reset() to a point before where BIO_UPTODATE is checked,
so that check now always report that the bio is uptodate, even if it is not.

This causes process_check() to sometimes treat read-errors as
successful matches so the good data isn't written out.

This patch preserves the flag until it is needed.

Bug was introduced in 3.11, but backported to 3.10-stable (as it fixed
an even worse bug).  So suitable for any -stable since 3.10.

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.

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.

9092c02d94 DM RAID: Add ability to restore transiently failed devices on resume
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.
