Pull md bugfixes from Neil Brown: "A few bugfixes for md Some tagged for -stable" * tag 'md-3.10-fixes' of git://neil.brown.name/md: md/raid1,5,10: Disable WRITE SAME until a recovery strategy is in place md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places. md/raid1: consider WRITE as successful only if at least one non-Faulty and non-rebuilding drive completed it. md: md_stop_writes() should always freeze recovery.
2013-06-13md/raid1,5,10: Disable WRITE SAME until a recovery strategy is in placeH. Peter Anvin
There are cases where the kernel will believe that the WRITE SAME command is supported by a block device which does not, in fact, support WRITE SAME. This currently happens for SATA drivers behind a SAS controller, but there are probably a hundred other ways that can happen, including drive firmware bugs. After receiving an error for WRITE SAME the block layer will retry the request as a plain write of zeroes, but mdraid will consider the failure as fatal and consider the drive failed. This has the effect that all the mirrors containing a specific set of data are each offlined in very rapid succession resulting in data loss. However, just bouncing the request back up to the block layer isn't ideal either, because the whole initial request-retry sequence should be inside the write bitmap fence, which probably means that md needs to do its own conversion of WRITE SAME to write zero. Until the failure scenario has been sorted out, disable WRITE SAME for raid1, raid5, and raid10. [neilb: added raid5] This patch is appropriate for any -stable since 3.7 when write_same support was added. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: H.

2013-06-13md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places.NeilBrown
Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they really should call freeze_array. The former is only intended to be called from "make_request". The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the management thread. Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock. Using freeze_array should not. As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore. The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits 050b66152f87c7 (raid10) and 6b740b8d79252f13 (raid1) which appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable kernel since then. This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and will need to be applied by hand.

2013-06-13md/raid1: consider WRITE as successful only if at least one non-Faulty and ↵Alex Lyakas
non-rebuilding drive completed it. Without that fix, the following scenario could happen: - RAID1 with drives A and B; drive B was freshly-added and is rebuilding - Drive A fails - WRITE request arrives to the array. It is failed by drive A, so r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_WriteError, but the rebuilding drive B succeeds in writing it, so the same r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_Uptodate. - r1_bio arrives to handle_write_finished, badblocks are disabled, md_error()->error() does nothing because we don't fail the last drive of raid1 - raid_end_bio_io() calls call_bio_endio() - As a result, in call_bio_endio(): if (!test_bit(R1BIO_Uptodate, &r1_bio->state)) clear_bit(BIO_UPTODATE, &bio->bi_flags); this code doesn't clear the BIO_UPTODATE flag, and the whole master WRITE succeeds, back to the upper layer. So we returned success to the upper layer, even though we had written the data onto the rebuilding drive only. But when we want to read the data back, we would not read from the rebuilding drive, so this data is lost. [neilb - applied identical change to raid10 as well] This bug can result in lost data, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel.

2013-06-13md: md_stop_writes() should always freeze recovery.NeilBrown
__md_stop_writes() will currently sometimes freeze recovery. So any caller must be ready for that to happen, and indeed they are. However if __md_stop_writes() doesn't freeze_recovery, then a recovery could start before mddev_suspend() is called, which could be awkward. This can particularly cause problems or dm-raid. So change __md_stop_writes() to always freeze recovery. This is safe and more predicatable.

2013-05-10dm bufio: avoid a possible __vmalloc deadlockMikulas Patocka
This patch uses memalloc_noio_save to avoid a possible deadlock in dm-bufio. (it could happen only with large block size, at most PAGE_SIZE << MAX_ORDER (typically 8MiB). __vmalloc doesn't fully respect gfp flags. The specified gfp flags are used for allocation of requested pages, structures vmap_area, vmap_block and vm_struct and the radix tree nodes. However, the kernel pagetables are allocated always with GFP_KERNEL. Thus the allocation of pagetables can recurse back to the I/O layer and cause a deadlock. This patch uses the function memalloc_noio_save to set per-process PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and the function memalloc_noio_restore to restore it. When this flag is set, all allocations in the process are done with implied GFP_NOIO flag, thus the deadlock can't happen. This should be backported to stable kernels, but they don't have the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and memalloc_noio_save/memalloc_noio_restore functions. So, PF_MEMALLOC should be set and restored instead.

2013-05-10dm stripe: fix regression in stripe_width calculationMike Snitzer
Fix a regression in the calculation of the stripe_width in the dm stripe target which led to incorrect processing of device limits. The stripe_width is the stripe device length divided by the number of stripes. The group of commits in the range f14fa69 ("dm stripe: fix size test") to eb850de ("dm stripe: support for non power of 2 chunksize") interfered with each other (a merging error) and led to the stripe_width being set incorrectly to the stripe device length divided by chunk_size * stripe_count. For example, a stripe device's table with: 0 33553920 striped 3 512 ... should result in a stripe_width of 11184640 (33553920 / 3), but due to the bug it was getting set to 21845 (33553920 / (512 * 3)). The impact of this bug is that device topologies that previously worked fine with the stripe target are no longer considered valid. In particular, there is a higher risk of seeing this issue if one of the stripe devices has a 4K logical block size. Resulting in an error message like this: "device-mapper: table: 253:4: len=21845 not aligned to h/w logical block size 4096 of dm-1" The fix is to swap the order of the divisions and to use a temporary variable for the second one, so that width retains the intended value.

2013-04-24md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.NeilBrown
When assembling an array incrementally we might want to make it device available when "enough" devices are present, but maybe not "all" devices are present. If the remaining devices appear before the array is actually used, they should be added transparently. We do this by using the "read-auto" mode where the array acts like it is read-only until a write request arrives. Current an add-device request switches a read-auto array to active. This means that only one device can be added after the array is first made read-auto. This isn't a problem for RAID5, but is not ideal for RAID6 or RAID10. Also we don't really want to switch the array to read-auto at all when re-adding a device as this doesn't really imply any change. So: - remove the "md_update_sb()" call from add_new_disk(). This isn't really needed as just adding a disk doesn't require a metadata update. Instead, just set MD_CHANGE_DEVS. This will effect a metadata update soon enough, once the array is not read-only. - Allow the ADD_NEW_DISK ioctl to succeed without activating a read-auto array, providing the MD_DISK_SYNC flag is set. In this case, the device will be rejected if it cannot be added with the correct device number, or has an incorrect event count. - Teach remove_and_add_spares() to be careful about adding spares when the array is read-only (or read-mostly) - only add devices that are thought to be in-sync, and only do it if the array is in-sync itself. - In md_check_recovery, use remove_and_add_spares in the read-only case, rather than open coding just the 'remove' part of it.

If/when the array does become active for some other reason the metadata will be update to reflect the removal. If that never happens and the array is stopped while still read-auto, then there is no loss in forgetting the that the device had 'failed'. A read-only array will leave failed devices attached to the array personality, so we need to explicitly call remove_and_add_spares() to free it (clearing Blocked just like we do in store_slot()).
