2015-02-06md: make reconfig_mutex optional for writes to md sysfs files.NeilBrown
Rather than using mddev_lock() to take the reconfig_mutex when writing to any md sysfs file, we only take mddev_lock() in the particular _store() functions that require it. Admittedly this is most, but it isn't all. This also allows us to remove special-case handling for new_dev_store (in md_attr_store). Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: move mddev_lock and related to md.hNeilBrown
The one which is not inline (mddev_unlock) gets EXPORTed. This makes the locking available to personality modules so that it doesn't have to be imposed upon them. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: use mddev->lock to protect updates to resync_{min,max}.NeilBrown
There are interdependencies between these two sysfs attributes and whether a resync is currently running. Rather than depending on reconfig_mutex to ensure no races when testing these interdependencies are met, use the spinlock. This will allow the mutex to be remove from protecting this code in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: minor cleanup in safe_delay_store.NeilBrown
There isn't really much room for races with ->safemode_delay. But as I am trying to clean up any racy code and will soon be removing reconfig_mutex protection from most _store() functions: - only set mddev->safemode_delay once, to ensure no code can see an intermediate value - use safemode_timer to call md_safemode_timeout() rather than calling it directly, to ensure it never races with itself. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: move GET_BITMAP_FILE ioctl out from mddev_lock.NeilBrown
It makes more sense to report bitmap_info->file, rather than bitmap->file (the later is only available once the array is active). With that change, use mddev->lock to protect bitmap_info being set to NULL, and we can call get_bitmap_file() without taking the mutex. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: tidy up set_bitmap_fileNeilBrown
1/ delay setting mddev->bitmap_info.file until 'f' looks usable, so we don't have to unset it. 2/ Don't allow bitmap file to be set if bitmap_info.file is already set. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: remove unnecessary 'buf' from get_bitmap_file.NeilBrown
'buf' is only used because d_path fills from the end of the buffer instead of from the start. We don't need a separate buf to handle that, we just need to use memmove() to move the string to the start. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: remove mddev_lock from rdev_attr_show()NeilBrown
No rdev attributes need locking for 'show', though state_show() might benefit from ensuring it sees a consistent set of flags. None even use rdev->mddev, so testing for it isn't really needed and it certainly doesn't need to be held constant. So improve state_show() and remove the locking. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: remove mddev_lock() from md_attr_show()NeilBrown
Most attributes can be read safely without any locking. A race might lead to a slightly out-dated value, but nothing wrong. We already have locking in some places where needed. All that remains is can_clear_show(), behind_writes_used_show() and action_show() which are easily fixed. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-06md: remove need for mddev_lock() in md_seq_show()NeilBrown
The only access in md_seq_show that could suffer from races not protected by ->lock is walking the rdev list. This can receive sufficient protection from 'rcu'. So use rdev_for_each_rcu() and get rid of mddev_lock(). Now reading /proc/mdstat will never block in md_seq_show. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-04md: protect ->pers changes with mddev->lockNeilBrown
->pers is already protected by ->reconfig_mutex, and cannot possibly change when there are threads running or outstanding IO. However there are some places where we access ->pers not in a thread or IO context, and where ->reconfig_mutex is unnecessarily heavy-weight: level_show and md_seq_show(). So protect all changes, and those accesses, with ->lock. This is a step toward taking those accesses out from under reconfig_mutex. [Fixed missing "mddev->pers" -> "pers" conversion, thanks to Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>] Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-04md: level_store: group all important changes into one place.NeilBrown
Gather all the changes that can happen atomically and might be relevant to other code into one place. This will make it easier to refine the locking. Note that this puts quite a few things between mddev_detach() and ->free(). Enabling this was the point of some recent patches. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-04md: rename ->stop to ->freeNeilBrown
Now that the ->stop function only frees the private data, rename is accordingly. Also pass in the private pointer as an arg rather than using mddev->private. This flexibility will be useful in level_store(). 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 to clear ->private (it was some time ago before ->to_remove was introduced). Setting ->to_remove in ->free() is a bit of a wart, but not a big problem at the moment. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-04md: split detach operation out from ->stop.NeilBrown
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(). Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-04md: make merge_bvec_fn more robust in face of personality changes.NeilBrown
There is no locking around calls to merge_bvec_fn(), so it is possible that calls which coincide with a level (or personality) change could go wrong. So create a central dispatch point for these functions and use rcu_read_lock(). If the array is suspended, reject any merge that can be rejected. If not, we know it is safe to call the function. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-04md: make ->congested robust against personality changes.NeilBrown
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. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2015-02-04md: rename mddev->write_lock to mddev->lockNeilBrown
This lock is used for (slightly) more than helping with writing superblocks, and it will soon be extended further. So the name is inappropriate. Also, the _irq variant hasn't been needed since 2.6.37 as it is never taking from interrupt or bh context. So: -rename write_lock to lock -document what it protects -remove _irq ... except in md_flush_request() as there is no wait_event_lock() (with no _irq). This can be cleaned up after appropriate changes to wait.h. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2014-12-11md: Check MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING as well as ->sync_thread.NeilBrown
A recent change to md started the ->sync_thread from a asynchronously from a work_queue rather than synchronously. This means that there can be a small window between the time when MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING is set and when ->sync_thread is set. So code that checks ->sync_thread might now conclude that the thread has not been started and (because a lock is held) will not be started. That is no longer the case. Most of those places are best fixed by testing MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING as well. To make this completely reliable, we wake_up(&resync_wait) after clearing that flag as well as after clearing ->sync_thread. Other places are better served by flushing the relevant workqueue to ensure that that if the sync thread was starting, it has now started. This is particularly best if we are about to stop the sync thread. Fixes: ac05f256691fe427a3e84c19261adb0b67dd73c0 Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2014-11-17md: Always set RECOVERY_NEEDED when clearing RECOVERY_FROZENNeilBrown
md_check_recovery will skip any recovery and also clear MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED if MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN is set. So when we clear _FROZEN, we must set _NEEDED and ensure that md_check_recovery gets run. Otherwise we could miss out on something that is needed. In particular, this can make it impossible to remove a failed device from an array is the 'recovery-needed' processing didn't happen.

2014-10-14md: don't start resync thread directly from md thread.NeilBrown
The main 'md' thread is needed for processing writes, so if it blocks write requests could be delayed. Starting a new thread requires some GFP_KERNEL allocations and so can wait for writes to complete. This can deadlock. So instead, ask a workqueue to start the sync thread. There is no particular rush for this to happen, so any work queue will do. MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING is used to ensure only one thread is started.

printk may cause long time lapse if value of printk_delay in sysctl is configured large by user.

2014-10-14md: be more relaxed about stopping an array which isn't started.NeilBrown
In general we don't allow an array to be stopped if it is in use. However if the array hasn't really been started yet, then any apparent use is an anomily, probably due to 'udev' or similar having a look to see what is there. This means that if something goes wrong while assembling an array it cannot reliably be un-assembled - STOP_ARRAY could fail. There is no value here, so change do_md_stop() to succeed despite concurrent opens if the array has not yet been activated. i.e. if ->pers is NULL.

2014-07-31md: disable probing for md devices 512 and over.NeilBrown
The way md devices are traditionally created in the kernel is simply to open the device with the desired major/minor number. This can be problematic as some support tools, notably udev and programs run by udev, can open a device just to see what is there, and find that it has created something. It is easy for a race to cause udev to open an md device just after it was destroy, causing it to suddenly re-appear. For some time we have had an alternate way to create md devices echo md_somename > /sys/modules/md_mod/paramaters/new_array This will always use a minor number of 512 or higher, which mdadm normally avoids. Using this makes the creation-by-opening unnecessary, but does not disable it, so it is still there to cause problems. This patch disable probing for devices with a major of 9 (MD_MAJOR) and a minor of 512 and up. This devices created by writing to new_array cannot be re-created by opening the node in /dev. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2014-07-03md: flush writes before starting a recovery.NeilBrown
When we write to a degraded array which has a bitmap, we make sure the relevant bit in the bitmap remains set when the write completes (so a 're-add' can quickly rebuilt a temporarily-missing device). If, immediately after such a write starts, we incorporate a spare, commence recovery, and skip over the region where the write is happening (because the 'needs recovery' flag isn't set yet), then that write will not get to the new device. Once the recovery finishes the new device will be trusted, but will have incorrect data, leading to possible corruption. We cannot set the 'needs recovery' flag when we start the write as we do not know easily if the write will be "degraded" or not. That depends on details of the particular raid level and particular write request. This patch fixes a corruption issue of long standing and so it suitable for any -stable kernel. It applied correctly to 3.0 at least and will minor editing to earlier kernels.

2014-05-29md: always set MD_RECOVERY_INTR when interrupting a reshape thread.NeilBrown
Commit 8313b8e57f55b15e5b7f7fc5d1630bbf686a9a97 md: fix problem when adding device to read-only array with bitmap. added a called to md_reap_sync_thread() which cause a reshape thread to be interrupted (in particular, it could cause md_thread() to never even call md_do_sync()). However it didn't set MD_RECOVERY_INTR so ->finish_reshape() would not know that the reshape didn't complete. This only happens when mddev->ro is set and normally reshape threads don't run in that situation. But raid5 and raid10 can start a reshape thread during "run" is the array is in the middle of a reshape. They do this even if ->ro is set. So it is best to set MD_RECOVERY_INTR before abortingg the sync thread, just in case. Though it rare for this to trigger a problem it can cause data corruption because the reshape isn't finished properly. So it is suitable for any stable which the offending commit was applied to.

2014-05-28md: always set MD_RECOVERY_INTR when aborting a reshape or other "resync".NeilBrown
If mddev->ro is set, md_to_sync will (correctly) abort. However in that case MD_RECOVERY_INTR isn't set. If a RESHAPE had been requested, then ->finish_reshape() will be called and it will think the reshape was successful even though nothing happened. Normally a resync will not be requested if ->ro is set, but if an array is stopped while a reshape is on-going, then when the array is started, the reshape will be restarted. If the array is also set read-only at this point, the reshape will instantly appear to success, resulting in data corruption. Consequently, this patch is suitable for any -stable kernel.

2014-04-09md: avoid oops on unload if some process is in poll or select.NeilBrown
If md-mod is unloaded while some process is in poll() or select(), then that process maintains a pointer to md_event_waiters, and when the try to unlink from that list, they will oops. The procfs infrastructure ensures that ->poll won't be called after remove_proc_entry, but doesn't provide a wait_queue_head for us to use, and the waitqueue code doesn't provide a way to remove all listeners from a waitqueue. So we need to: 1/ make sure no further references to md_event_waiters are taken (by setting md_unloading) 2/ wake up all processes currently waiting, and 3/ wait until all those processes have disconnected from our wait_queue_head.
