In order to provide data consistency with PPL for disks with write-back
cache enabled all data has to be flushed to disks before next PPL
entry. The disks to be flushed are marked in the bitmap. It's modified
under a mutex and it's only read after PPL io unit is submitted.
A limitation of 64 disks in the array has been introduced to keep data
structures and implementation simple. RAID5 arrays with so many disks are
not likely due to high risk of multiple disks failure. Such restriction
should not be a real life limitation.
With write-back cache disabled next PPL entry is submitted when data write
for current one completes. Data flush defers next log submission so trigger
it when there are no stripes for handling found.
As PPL assures all data is flushed to disk at request completion, just
acknowledge flush request when PPL is enabled.

In do_md_run(), md threads should not wake up until the array is fully
initialized in md_run(). However, in raid5_run(), raid5-cache may wake
up mddev->thread to flush stripes that need to be written back. This
design doesn't break badly right now. But it could lead to bad bug in
the future.
This patch tries to resolve this problem by splitting start up work
into two personality functions, run() and start(). Tasks that do not
require the md threads should go into run(), while task that require
the md threads go into start().
r5l_load_log() is moved to raid5_start(), so it is not called until
the md threads are started in do_md_run().

r5c_journal_mode_set() is called by r5c_journal_mode_store() and
raid_ctr() in dm-raid. We don't need mddev_lock() when calling from
raid_ctr(). This patch fixes this by moves the mddev_lock() to
r5c_journal_mode_store().

The '2' argument means "wake up anything that is waiting".
This is an inelegant part of the design and was added
to help support management of suspend_lo/suspend_hi setting.
Now that suspend_lo/hi is managed in mddev_suspend/resume,
that need is gone.
These is still a couple of places where we call 'quiesce'
with an argument of '2', but they can safely be changed to
call ->quiesce(.., 1); ->quiesce(.., 0) which
achieve the same result at the small cost of pausing IO
briefly.
This removes a small "optimization" from suspend_{hi,lo}_store,
but it isn't clear that optimization served a useful purpose.
The code now is a lot clearer.

Most often mddev_suspend() is called with
reconfig_mutex held. Make this a requirement in
preparation a subsequent patch. Also require
reconfig_mutex to be held for mddev_resume(),
partly for symmetry and partly to guarantee
no races with incr/decr of mddev->suspend.
Taking the mutex in r5c_disable_writeback_async() is
a little tricky as this is called from a work queue
via log->disable_writeback_work, and flush_work()
is called on that while holding ->reconfig_mutex.
If the work item hasn't run before flush_work()
is called, the work function will not be able to
get the mutex.
So we use mddev_trylock() inside the wait_event() call, and have that
abort when conf->log is set to NULL, which happens before
flush_work() is called.
We wait in mddev->sb_wait and ensure this is woken
when any of the conditions change. This requires
waking mddev->sb_wait in mddev_unlock(). This is only
like to trigger extra wake_ups of threads that needn't
be woken when metadata is being written, and that
doesn't happen often enough that the cost would be
noticeable.

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.

In r5l_log_endio(), once log->io_list_lock is released, the io unit
may be accessed (or even freed) by other threads. Current code
doesn't handle the io_unit properly, which leads to potential race
conditions.
This patch solves this race condition by:
1. Add a pending_stripe count flush_payload. Multiple flush_payloads
are counted as only one pending_stripe. Flag has_flush_payload is
added to show whether the io unit has flush_payload;
2. In r5l_log_endio(), check flags has_null_flush and
has_flush_payload with log->io_list_lock held. After the lock
is released, this IO unit is only accessed when we know the
pending_stripe counter cannot be zeroed by other threads.

"flags" arguments are often seen as good API design as they allow
easy extensibility.
bioset_create_nobvec() is implemented internally as a variation in
flags passed to __bioset_create().
To support future extension, make the internal structure part of the
API.
i.e. add a 'flags' argument to bioset_create() and discard
bioset_create_nobvec().
Note that the bio_split allocations in drivers/md/raid* do not need
the bvec mempool - they should have used bioset_create_nobvec().

Commit b685d3d65ac7 "block: treat REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH as
synchronous" removed REQ_SYNC flag from WRITE_{FUA|PREFLUSH|...}
definitions. generic_make_request_checks() however strips REQ_FUA and
REQ_PREFLUSH flags from a bio when the storage doesn't report volatile
write cache and thus write effectively becomes asynchronous which can
lead to performance regressions
Fix the problem by making sure all bios which are synchronous are
properly marked with REQ_SYNC.

Currently, sync of raid456 array cannot make progress when hitting
data in writeback r5cache.
This patch fixes this issue by flushing cached data of the stripe
before processing the sync request. This is achived by:
1. In handle_stripe(), do not set STRIPE_SYNCING if the stripe is
in write back cache;
2. In r5c_try_caching_write(), handle the stripe in sync with write
through;
3. In do_release_stripe(), make stripe in sync write out and send
it to the state machine.

For the raid456 with writeback cache, when journal device failed during
normal operation, it is still possible to persist all data, as all
pending data is still in stripe cache. However, it is necessary to handle
journal failure gracefully.
During journal failures, the following logic handles the graceful shutdown
of journal:
1. raid5_error() marks the device as Faulty and schedules async work
log->disable_writeback_work;
2. In disable_writeback_work (r5c_disable_writeback_async), the mddev is
suspended, set to write through, and then resumed. mddev_suspend()
flushes all cached stripes;
3. All cached stripes need to be flushed carefully to the RAID array.
This patch fixes issues within the process above:
1. In r5c_update_on_rdev_error() schedule disable_writeback_work for
journal failures;
2. In r5c_disable_writeback_async(), wait for MD_SB_CHANGE_PENDING,
since raid5_error() updates superblock.
3. In handle_stripe(), allow stripes with data in journal (s.injournal > 0)
to make progress during log_failed;
4. In delay_towrite(), if log failed only process data in the cache (skip
new writes in dev->towrite);
5. In __get_priority_stripe(), process loprio_list during journal device
failures.
6. In raid5_remove_disk(), wait for all cached stripes are flushed before
calling log_exit().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- A major update for DM cache that reduces the latency for deciding
whether blocks should migrate to/from the cache. The bio-prison-v2
interface supports this improvement by enabling direct dispatch of
work to workqueues rather than having to delay the actual work
dispatch to the DM cache core. So the dm-cache policies are much more
nimble by being able to drive IO as they see fit. One immediate
benefit from the improved latency is a cache that should be much more
adaptive to changing workloads.
- Add a new DM integrity target that emulates a block device that has
additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing integrity
information.
- Add a new authenticated encryption feature to the DM crypt target
that builds on the capabilities provided by the DM integrity target.
- Add MD interface for switching the raid4/5/6 journal mode and update
the DM raid target to use it to enable aid4/5/6 journal write-back
support.
- Switch the DM verity target over to using the asynchronous hash
crypto API (this helps work better with architectures that have
access to off-CPU algorithm providers, which should reduce CPU
utilization).
- Various request-based DM and DM multipath fixes and improvements from
Bart and Christoph.
- A DM thinp target fix for a bio structure leak that occurs for each
discard IFF discard passdown is enabled.
- A fix for a possible deadlock in DM bufio and a fix to re-check the
new buffer allocation watermark in the face of competing admin
changes to the 'max_cache_size_bytes' tunable.
- A couple DM core cleanups.

a counter
md/raid5 needs to keep track of how many stripe_heads are processing a
bio so that it can delay calling bio_endio() until all stripe_heads
have completed. It currently uses 16 bits of ->bi_phys_segments for
this purpose.
16 bits is only enough for 256M requests, and it is possible for a
single bio to be larger than this, which causes problems. Also, the
bio struct contains a larger counter, __bi_remaining, which has a
purpose very similar to the purpose of our counter. So stop using
->bi_phys_segments, and instead use __bi_remaining.
This means we don't need to initialize the counter, as our caller
initializes it to '1'. It also means we can call bio_endio() directly
as it tests this counter internally.

We currently gather bios that need to be returned into a bio_list
and call bio_endio() on them all together.
The original reason for this was to avoid making the calls while

valid.
So discard return_io() and various return_bi lists, and just call

We use md_write_start() to increase the count of pending writes, and
md_write_end() to decrement the count. We currently count bios
submitted to md/raid5. Change it count stripe_heads that a WRITE bio
has been attached to.
So now, raid5_make_request() calls md_write_start() and then
md_write_end() to keep the count elevated during the setup of the
request.
add_stripe_bio() calls md_write_start() for each stripe_head, and the
completion routines always call md_write_end(), instead of only
calling it when raid5_dec_bi_active_stripes() returns 0.
make_discard_request also calls md_write_start/end().
The parallel between md_write_{start,end} and use of bi_phys_segments
can be seen in that:
Whenever we set bi_phys_segments to 1, we now call md_write_start.
Whenever we increment it on non-read requests with
raid5_inc_bi_active_stripes(), we now call md_write_start().
Whenever we decrement bi_phys_segments on non-read requsts with
raid5_dec_bi_active_stripes(), we now call md_write_end().
This reduces our dependence on keeping a per-bio count of active
stripes in bi_phys_segments.
md_write_inc() is added which parallels md_write_start(), but requires
that a write has already been started, and is certain never to sleep.
This can be used inside a spinlocked region when adding to a write
request.

In r5cache recovery, the journal device is scanned page by page.
Currently, we use sync_page_io() to read journal device. This is
not efficient when we have to recovery many stripes from the journal.
To improve the speed of recovery, this patch introduces a read ahead
page pool (ra_pool) to recovery_ctx. With ra_pool, multiple consecutive
pages are read in one IO. Then the recovery code read the journal from
ra_pool.
With ra_pool, r5l_recovery_ctx has become much bigger. Therefore,
r5l_recovery_log() is refactored so r5l_recovery_ctx is not using
stack space.

Bump the flush stripe batch size to 2048. For my 12 disks raid
array, the stripes takes:
12 * 4k * 2048 = 96MB
This is still quite small. A hardware raid card generally has 1GB size,
which we suggest the raid5-cache has similar cache size.
The advantage of a big batch size is we can dispatch a lot of IO in the
same time, then we can do some scheduling to make better IO pattern.
Last patch prioritizes stripes, so we don't worry about a big flush
stripe batch will starve normal stripes.

It is important to be able to flush all stripes in raid5-cache.
Therefore, we need reserve some space on the journal device for
these flushes. If flush operation includes pending writes to the
stripe, we need to reserve (conf->raid_disk + 1) pages per stripe
for the flush out. This reduces the efficiency of journal space.
If we exclude these pending writes from flush operation, we only
need (conf->max_degraded + 1) pages per stripe.
With this patch, when log space is critical (R5C_LOG_CRITICAL=1),
pending writes will be excluded from stripe flush out. Therefore,
we can reduce reserved space for flush out and thus improve journal
device efficiency.

Chunk aligned read significantly reduces CPU usage of raid456.
However, it is not safe to fully bypass the write back cache.
This patch enables chunk aligned read with write back cache.
For chunk aligned read, we track stripes in write back cache at
a bigger granularity, "big_stripe". Each chunk may contain more
than one stripe (for example, a 256kB chunk contains 64 4kB-page,
so this chunk contain 64 stripes). For chunk_aligned_read, these
stripes are grouped into one big_stripe, so we only need one lookup
for the whole chunk.
For each big_stripe, struct big_stripe_info tracks how many stripes
of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. We count how many
stripes of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. These
counters are tracked in a radix tree (big_stripe_tree).
r5c_tree_index() is used to calculate keys for the radix tree.
chunk_aligned_read() calls r5c_big_stripe_cached() to look up
big_stripe of each chunk in the tree. If this big_stripe is in the
tree, chunk_aligned_read() aborts. This look up is protected by
rcu_read_lock().
It is necessary to remember whether a stripe is counted in
big_stripe_tree. Instead of adding new flag, we reuses existing flags:
STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE. If either of these
two flags are set, the stripe is counted in big_stripe_tree. This
requires moving set_bit(STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE) to
r5c_try_caching_write(); and moving clear_bit of
STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE to
r5c_finish_stripe_write_out().

write-back cache in degraded mode introduces corner cases to the array.
Although we try to cover all these corner cases, it is safer to just
disable write-back cache when the array is in degraded mode.
In this patch, we disable writeback cache for degraded mode:
1. On device failure, if the array enters degraded mode, raid5_error()
will submit async job r5c_disable_writeback_async to disable
writeback;
2. In r5c_journal_mode_store(), it is invalid to enable writeback in
degraded mode;
3. In r5c_try_caching_write(), stripes with s->failed>0 will be handled
in write-through mode.

For safer operation, all arrays start in write-through mode, which has been
better tested and is more mature. And actually the write-through/write-mode
isn't persistent after array restarted, so we always start array in
write-through mode. However, if recovery found data-only stripes before the
shutdown (from previous write-back mode), it is not safe to start the array in
write-through mode, as write-through mode can not handle stripes with data in
write-back cache. To solve this problem, we flush all data-only stripes in
r5l_recovery_log(). When r5l_recovery_log() returns, the array starts with
empty cache in write-through mode.
This logic is implemented in r5c_recovery_flush_data_only_stripes():
1. enable write back cache
2. flush all stripes
3. wake up conf->mddev->thread
4. wait for all stripes get flushed (reuse wait_for_quiescent)
5. disable write back cache
The wait in 4 will be waked up in release_inactive_stripe_list()
when conf->active_stripes reaches 0.
It is safe to wake up mddev->thread here because all the resource
required for the thread has been initialized.

With write back cache, we use orig_page to do prexor. This patch
makes sure we read data into orig_page for it.
Flag R5_OrigPageUPTDODATE is added to show whether orig_page
has the latest data from raid disk.
We introduce a helper function uptodate_for_rmw() to simplify
the a couple conditions in handle_stripe_dirtying().

r5l_load_log() calls functions that requires a proper conf->log,
for example, r5c_is_writeback(). Therefore, we should set
conf->log before calling r5l_load_log(). If r5l_load_log() fails,
conf->log is set back to NULL.

We only need to update sh->log_start at the end of recovery,
which is r5c_recovery_rewrite_data_only_stripes(), so it is not
necessary to set it before that. In this patch, log_start is
removed from r5c_recovery_alloc_stripe().
After updating all sh->log_start, rewrite_data_only_stripes()
also updates log->next_checkpoints to the last sh->log_start.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.
The major parts of this pull request is:
- Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
private implementation instead of using the pig that is
fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.
- Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
writeback queue throttling code.
- Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.
- Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.
- Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
and Shaun.
- Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.
- Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
Christoph.
- A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
stopping and starting in blk-mq.
- Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.
- Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.
- Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart.
- A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name
here"

The mddev->flags are used for different purposes. There are a lot of
places we check/change the flags without masking unrelated flags, we
could check/change unrelated flags. These usage are most for superblock
write, so spearate superblock related flags. This should make the code
clearer and also fix real bugs.

Currently, we increase journal entry seq by 10 after recovery.
However, this is not sufficient in the following case.
After crash the journal looks like
| seq+0 | +1 | +2 | +3 | +4 | +5 | +6 | +7 | ... | +11 | +12 |
If +1 is not valid, we dropped all entries from +1 to +12; and
write seq+10:
| seq+0 | +10 | +2 | +3 | +4 | +5 | +6 | +7 | ... | +11 | +12 |
However, if we write a big journal entry with seq+11, it will
connect with some stale journal entry:
| seq+0 | +10 | +11 | +12 |
To reduce the risk of this issue, we increase seq by 10000 instead.
Shaohua: use 10000 instead of 1000. The risk should be very unlikely. The total
stripe cache size is less than 2k typically, and several stripes can fit into
one meta data block. So the total inflight meta data blocks would be quite
small, which means the the total sequence number used should be quite small.
The 10000 sequence number increase should be far more than safe.

r5l_recovery_create_empty_meta_block() creates crc for the empty
metablock. After the metablock is updated, we need clear the
checksum before recalculate it.
Shaohua: moved checksum calculation out of
r5l_recovery_create_empty_meta_block. We should calculate it after all fields
are updated.
