Careful analysis shows that this flag is not needed.
The RESCUER flag is only needed when a make_request_fn might:
- allocate a bio from the bioset
- submit it with generic_make_request() or similar
- allocate another bio from the bioset
The second allocation can block until the first bio is processed, so
a rescuer is needed to ensure the first bio does get processed. With
a rescuer it will only get processed when the make_request_fn completes.
In drbd, allocations from drbd_io_bio_set happen from drbd_new_req()
or w_restart_disk_io() which is only called to handle
RESTART_FROZEN_DISK_IO.
In former is called precisely once from the make_request_fn.
The later is never called by within the make_request_fn.
So there cannot be two allocations in the same call to the
make_request_fn, so a rescuer is not needed.
Allocations from drbd_md_io_bio_set are used for IO to the bitmap and
the activity log. There are only accessed from worker threads and
workqueues, never directly from make_request_fn.
Again, the rescuer isn't needed.

Nothing like having a very generic global variable in a tiny driver

conn_try_disconnect() could potentialy hit the BUG_ON()
in _conn_set_state() where it iterates over _drbd_set_state()
and "asserts" via BUG_ON() that the latter was successful.
If the STATE_SENT bit was not yet visible to conn_is_valid_transition()
early in _conn_request_state(), but became visible before conn_set_state()
later in that call path, we could hit the BUG_ON() after _drbd_set_state(),
because it returned SS_IN_TRANSIENT_STATE.
To avoid that race, we better protect set_bit(SENT_STATE) with the spinlock.

When requesting a detach, we first suspend IO, and also inhibit meta-data IO
by means of drbd_md_get_buffer(), because we don't want to "fail" the disk
while there is IO in-flight: the transition into D_FAILED for detach purposes
may get misinterpreted as actual IO error in a confused endio function.
We wrap it all into wait_event(), to retry in case the drbd_req_state()
returns SS_IN_TRANSIENT_STATE, as it does for example during an ongoing
connection handshake.
In that example, the receiver thread may need to grab drbd_md_get_buffer()
during the handshake to make progress. To avoid potential deadlock with
detach, detach needs to grab and release the meta data buffer inside of
that wait_event retry loop. To avoid lock inversion between
mutex_lock(&device->state_mutex) and drbd_md_get_buffer(device),
introduce a new enum chg_state_flag CS_INHIBIT_MD_IO, and move the
call to drbd_md_get_buffer() inside the state_mutex grabbed in
drbd_req_state().

If there are still resources defined, but "empty", no more volumes
or connections configured, they don't hold module reference counts,
so rmmod is possible.

| which means this context was scheduled

device->ldev = nbc; |
| if (device->ldev)
| put_ldev()
Unlikely, but possible. I was able to provoke it "reliably"
by adding an mdelay(500); after the wake_up().
Fixed by moving the if (!NULL) put_ldev() before done = 1;
Impact of the bug was that the resulting refcount imbalance
could lead to premature destruction of the object, potentially
causing a NULL pointer dereference during a subsequent detach.

The conn_higest_role() (a terribly misnamed function) returns
the role of the resource. It returned R_UNKNOWN as long as the
resource has not a single device.
Resources without devices are short living objects.
But it matters for the NOTIFY_CREATE netwlink message. It makes
a lot more sense to report R_SECONDARY for the newly created
resource than R_UNKNOWN.
I reviewd all call sites of conn_highest_role(), that change
does not matter for the other call sites.

In protocol != C, we forgot to send the P_NEG_ACK for failing writes.
Once we no longer submit to local disk, because we already "detached",
due to the typical "on-io-error detach;" config setting,
we already send the neg acks right away.
Only those requests that have been submitted,
and have been error-completed by the local disk,
would forget to send the neg-ack,
and only in asynchronous replication (protocol != C).
Unless this happened during resync,
where we already always send acks, regardless of protocol.
The primary side needs the P_NEG_ACK in order to mark
the affected block(s) for resync in its out-of-sync bitmap.
If the blocks in question are not re-written again,
we may miss to resync them later, causing data inconsistencies.
This patch will always send the neg-acks, and also at least try to
persist the out-of-sync status on the local node already.

Recently, drbd_recv_header() was changed to potentially
implicitly "unplug" the backend device(s), in case there
is currently nothing to receive.
Be more explicit about it: re-introduce the original drbd_recv_header(),
and introduce a new drbd_recv_header_maybe_unplug() for use by the
receiver "main loop".
Using explicit plugging via blk_start_plug(); blk_finish_plug();
really helps the io-scheduler of the backend with merging requests.
Wrap the receiver "main loop" with such a plug.
Also catch unplug events on the Primary,
and try to propagate.
This is performance relevant. Without this, if the receiving side does
not merge requests, number of IOPS on the peer can me significantly
higher than IOPS on the Primary, and can easily become the bottleneck.
Together, both changes should help to reduce the number of IOPS
as seen on the backend of the receiving side, by increasing
the chance of merging mergable requests, without trading latency
for more throughput.

removed
There is a race between changing I/O elevator and request_queue removal
which can trigger the warning in kobject_add_internal. A program can
use sysfs to request a change of elevator at the same time another task
is unregistering the request_queue the elevator would be attached to.
The elevator's kobject will then attempt to be connected to the
request_queue in the object tree when the request_queue has just been
removed from sysfs. This triggers the warning in kobject_add_internal
as the request_queue no longer has a sysfs directory:
kobject_add_internal failed for iosched (error: -2 parent: queue)
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 14075 at lib/kobject.c:244 kobject_add_internal+0x103/0x2d0
To fix this warning, we can check the QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED flag when
changing the elevator and use the request_queue's sysfs_lock to
serialize between clearing the flag and the elevator testing the flag.

In dm-integrity target we register integrity profile that have
both generate_fn and verify_fn callbacks set to NULL.
This is used if dm-integrity is stacked under a dm-crypt device
for authenticated encryption (integrity payload contains authentication
tag and IV seed).
In this case the verification is done through own crypto API
processing inside dm-crypt; integrity profile is only holder
of these data. (And memory is owned by dm-crypt as well.)

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

The block layer always remaps partitions before calling into the
->make_request methods of drivers. Thus the call to get_start_sect in
in_chunk_boundary will always return 0 and can be removed.

Since MSI support on some motherboards is unreliable, change the
default interrupt mode from MSI to MSI-X. This patch avoids that

my test setup:
do_IRQ: 3.193 No irq handler for vector
