2011-10-11md: removing typedefs: mdk_rdev_t -> struct md_rdevNeilBrown
The typedefs are just annoying. 'mdk' probably refers to 'md_k.h' which used to be an include file that defined this thing. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-10-07md/raid0: convert some printks to pr_debug.NeilBrown

2011-09-25dm crypt: always disable discard_zeroes_dataMilan Broz
If optional discard support in dm-crypt is enabled, discards requests bypass the crypt queue and blocks of the underlying device are discarded. For the read path, discarded blocks are handled the same as normal ciphertext blocks, thus decrypted. So if the underlying device announces discarded regions return zeroes, dm-crypt must disable this flag because after decryption there is just random noise instead of zeroes.

2011-09-25dm table: avoid crash if integrity profile changesMike Snitzer
Commit a63a5cf (dm: improve block integrity support) introduced a two-phase initialization of a DM device's integrity profile. This patch avoids dereferencing a NULL 'template_disk' pointer in blk_integrity_register() if there is an integrity profile mismatch in dm_table_set_integrity(). This can occur if the integrity profiles for stacked devices in a DM table are changed between the call to dm_table_prealloc_integrity() and dm_table_set_integrity().

2011-09-23md: don't delay reboot by 1 second if no MD devices existDaniel P. Berrange
The md_notify_reboot() method includes a call to mdelay(1000), to deal with "exotic SCSI devices" which are too volatile on reboot. The delay is unconditional. Even if the machine does not have any block devices, let alone MD devices, the kernel shutdown sequence is slowed down. 1 second does not matter much with physical hardware, but with certain virtualization use cases any wasted time in the bootup & shutdown sequence counts for alot. * drivers/md/md.c: md_notify_reboot() - only impose a delay if there was at least one MD device to be stopped during reboot Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

2011-09-21md/bitmap: improve handling of 'allclean'.NeilBrown
The 'allclean' flag is used to cache the fact that there is nothing to do, so we can avoid waking up and scanning the bitmap regularly. The two sorts of pages that might need the attention of the bitmap daemon are BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and BITMAP_PAGE_NEEDWRITE pages. So make sure allclean reflects exactly when there are none of those. So: set it before scanning all pages with either bit set. clear it whenever these bits are set clear it when we desire not to clear one of these bits. don't clear it any other time. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-09-21md/bitmap: rename and tidy up BITMAP_PAGE_CLEANNeilBrown
The flag 'BITMAP_PAGE_CLEAN' has a confusing name as it doesn't mean that the page is clean, but rather that there are counters in the page which allow bits in the bitmap to be cleared - i.e. maybe cleaning can happen. So change it to BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and fix some irregularities: - Don't set it in bitmap_init_from_disk as bitmap_set_memory_bits sets it when needed - in bitmap_daemon_work, if we find a counter that is '1', but need_sync is set, then set BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING again (it was recently cleared) to ensure we don't forget about this bit.

2011-09-21md: Avoid waking up a thread after it has been freed.NeilBrown
Two related problems: 1/ some error paths call "md_unregister_thread(mddev->thread)" without subsequently clearing ->thread. A subsequent call to mddev_unlock will try to wake the thread, and crash. 2/ Most calls to md_wakeup_thread are protected against the thread disappeared either by: - holding the ->mutex - having an active request, so something else must be keeping the array active. However mddev_unlock calls md_wakeup_thread after dropping the mutex and without any certainty of an active request, so the ->thread could theoretically disappear. So we need a spinlock to provide some protections. So change md_unregister_thread to take a pointer to the thread pointer, and ensure that it always does the required locking, and clears the pointer properly.

2011-09-12block: remove support for bio remapping from ->make_requestChristoph Hellwig
There is very little benefit in allowing to let a ->make_request instance update the bios device and sector and loop around it in __generic_make_request when we can archive the same through calling generic_make_request from the driver and letting the loop in generic_make_request handle it.

2011-09-10md: Fix handling for devices from 2TB to 4TB in 0.90 metadata.NeilBrown
0.90 metadata uses an unsigned 32bit number to count the number of kilobytes used from each device. This should allow up to 4TB per device. However we multiply this by 2 (to get sectors) before casting to a larger type, so sizes above 2TB get truncated. Also we allow rdev->sectors to be larger than 4TB, so it is possible for the array to be resized larger than the metadata can handle. So make sure rdev->sectors never exceeds 4TB when 0.90 metadata is in used. Also the sanity check at the end of super_90_load should include level 1 as it used ->size too. (RAID0 and Linear don't use ->size at all). Reported-by: Pim Zandbergen <P.Zandbergen@macroscoop.nl> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-09-10md/raid1,10: Remove use-after-free bug in make_request.NeilBrown
A single request to RAID1 or RAID10 might result in multiple requests if there are known bad blocks that need to be avoided. To detect if we need to submit another write request we test: if (sectors_handled < (bio->bi_size >> 9)) { However this is after we call **_write_done() so the 'bio' no longer belongs to us - the writes could have completed and the bio freed. So move the **_write_done call until after the test against bio->bi_size.

2011-09-10md/raid10: unify handling of write completion.NeilBrown
A write can complete at two different places: 1/ when the last member-device write completes, through raid10_end_write_request 2/ in make_request() when we remove the initial bias from ->remaining. These two should do exactly the same thing and the comment says they do, but they don't. So factor the correct code out into a function and call it in both places. This makes the code much more similar to RAID1. The difference is only significant if there is an error, and they usually take a while, so it is unlikely that there will be an error already when make_request is completing, so this is unlikely to cause real problems.

2011-08-31md/raid5: fix a hang on device failure.NeilBrown
Waiting for a 'blocked' rdev to become unblocked in the raid5d thread cannot work with internal metadata as it is the raid5d thread which will clear the blocked flag. This wasn't a problem in 3.0 and earlier as we only set the blocked flag when external metadata was used then. However we now set it always, so we need to be more careful.

2011-08-30md: fix clearing of 'blocked' flag in the presence of bad blocks.NeilBrown
When the 'blocked' flag on a device is cleared while there are unacknowledged bad blocks we must fail the device. This is needed for backwards compatability of the interface.

2011-08-25md: use REQ_NOIDLE flag in md_super_write()Namhyung Kim
Queue idling is used for the anticipation of immediate sequencial I/O's but md_super_write() is a kind of one- shot operation, coupled with md_super_wait(), so the idling in this case will be just a waste of time. Specifying REQ_NOIDLE prevents it. Instead of adding the flag to submit_bio() directly, use pre-defined macro WRITE_FLUSH_FUA.

2011-08-25md: ensure changes to 'write-mostly' are reflected in metadata.NeilBrown

2011-08-02dm table: set flush capability based on underlying devicesMike Snitzer
DM has always advertised both REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA flush capabilities regardless of whether or not a given DM device's underlying devices also advertised a need for them. Block's flush-merge changes from 2.6.39 have proven to be more costly for DM devices. Performance regressions have been reported even when DM's underlying devices do not advertise that they have a write cache. Fix the performance regressions by configuring a DM device's flushing capabilities based on those of the underlying devices' capabilities.

2011-08-02dm raid: support metadata devicesJonathan Brassow
Add the ability to parse and use metadata devices to dm-raid. Although not strictly required, without the metadata devices, many features of RAID are unavailable. They are used to store a superblock and bitmap. The role, or position in the array, of each device must be recorded in its superblock. This is to help with fault handling, array reshaping, and sanity checks. RAID 4/5/6 devices must be loaded in a specific order: in this way, the 'array_position' field helps validate the correctness of the mapping when it is loaded. It can be used during reshaping to identify which devices are added/removed. Fault handling is impossible without this field. For example, when a device fails it is recorded in the superblock. If this is a RAID1 device and the offending device is removed from the array, there must be a way during subsequent array assembly to determine that the failed device was the one removed. This is done by correlating the 'array_position' field and the bit-field variable 'failed_devices'.

2011-08-02dm snapshot: skip reading origin when overwriting complete chunkMikulas Patocka
If we write a full chunk in the snapshot, skip reading the origin device because the whole chunk will be overwritten anyway. This patch changes the snapshot write logic when a full chunk is written. In this case: 1. allocate the exception 2. dispatch the bio (but don't report the bio completion to device mapper) 3. write the exception record 4. report bio completed Callbacks must be done through the kcopyd thread, because callbacks must not race with each other. So we create two new functions: dm_kcopyd_prepare_callback: allocate a job structure and prepare the callback. (This function must not be called from interrupt context.) dm_kcopyd_do_callback: submit callback. (This function may be called from interrupt context.) Performance test (on snapshots with 4k chunk size): without the patch: non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 17.7MB/s direct-io sequential write (dd): 20.9MB/s non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.44s with the patch: non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 26.5MB/s direct-io sequential write (dd): 33.2MB/s non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.27s Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2011-08-02dm: ignore merge_bvec for snapshots when safeMikulas Patocka
Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge function returns. When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots which can split them if necessary. Snapshot I/O may be significantly fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance. Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't provide a merge function. After the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't provide a merge function. The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be remapped. Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge function. Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes, it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the filesystem on snapshot store. If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function (such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.
