2015-08-05char: make misc_deregister a void functionGreg Kroah-Hartman
With well over 200+ users of this api, there are a mere 12 users that actually checked the return value of this function. And all of them really didn't do anything with that information as the system or module was shutting down no matter what. So stop pretending like it matters, and just return void from misc_deregister(). If something goes wrong in the call, you will get a WARNING splat in the syslog so you know how to fix up your driver. Other than that, there's nothing that can go wrong.

2015-07-24md/raid5: clear R5_NeedReplace when no longer needed.NeilBrown
This flag is currently never cleared, which can in rare cases trigger a warn-on if it is still set but the block isn't InSync. So clear it when it isn't need, which includes if the replacement device has failed. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>
2015-07-24Fix read-balancing during node failureGoldwyn Rodrigues
During a node failure, We need to suspend read balancing so that the reads are directed to the first device and stale data is not read. Suspending writes is not required because these would be recorded and synced eventually. A new flag MD_CLUSTER_SUSPEND_READ_BALANCING is set in recover_prep(). area_resyncing() will respond true for the entire devices if this flag is set and the request type is READ. The flag is cleared in recover_done(). Signed-off-by: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@suse.com> Reported-By: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>
2015-07-24md-cluster: fix bitmap sub-offset in bitmap_read_sbGoldwyn Rodrigues
bitmap_read_sb is modifying mddev->bitmap_info.offset. This works for the first bitmap read. However, when multiple bitmaps need to be opened by the same node, it ends up corrupting the offset. Fix it by using a local variable. Also, bitmap_read_sb is not required in bitmap_copy_from_slot since it is called in bitmap_create. Remove bitmap_read_sb().

2015-07-24md: Return error if request_module fails and returns positive valueGoldwyn Rodrigues
request_module() can return 256 (process exited) in some cases, which is not as specified in the documentation before the request_module() definition. Convert the error to -ENOENT. The positive error number results in bitmap_create() returning a value that is meant to be an error but doesn't look like one, so it is dereferenced as a point and causes a crash. (not needed for stable as this is "experimental" code) Fixes: edb39c9deda8 ("Introduce md_cluster_operations to handle cluster functions") Signed-off-By: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>

2015-07-24md/raid1: fix test for 'was read error from last working device'.NeilBrown
When we get a read error from the last working device, we don't try to repair it, and don't fail the device. We simple report a read error to the caller. However the current test for 'is this the last working device' is wrong. When there is only one fully working device, it assumes that a non-faulty device is that device. However a spare which is rebuilding would be non-faulty but so not the only working device. So change the test from "!Faulty" to "In_sync". If ->degraded says there is only one fully working device and this device is in_sync, this must be the one. This bug has existed since we allowed read_balance to read from a recovering spare in v3.0 Reported-and-tested-by: Alexander Lyakas <alex.bolshoy@gmail.com> Fixes: 76073054c95b ("md/raid1: clean up read_balance.")

2015-07-23md: Skip cluster setup for dm-raidGoldwyn Rodrigues
There is a bug that the bitmap superblock isn't initialised properly for dm-raid, so a new field can have garbage in new fields. (dm-raid does initialisation in the kernel - md initialised the superblock in mdadm). This means that for dm-raid we cannot currently trust the new ->nodes field. So: - use __GFP_ZERO to initialise the superblock properly for all new arrays - initialise all fields in bitmap_info in bitmap_new_disk_sb - ignore ->nodes for dm arrays (yes, this is a hack) This bug exposes dm-raid to bug in the (still experimental) md-cluster code, so it is suitable for -stable. It does cause crashes.

2015-07-22md: flush ->event_work before stopping array.NeilBrown
The 'event_work' worker used by dm-raid may still be running when the array is stopped. This can result in an oops.

2015-07-22md/raid10: always set reshape_safe when initializing reshape_position.NeilBrown
'reshape_position' tracks where in the reshape we have reached. 'reshape_safe' tracks where in the reshape we have safely recorded in the metadata. These are compared to determine when to update the metadata. So it is important that reshape_safe is initialised properly. Currently it isn't. When starting a reshape from the beginning it usually has the correct value by luck. But when reducing the number of devices in a RAID10, it has the wrong value and this leads to the metadata not being updated correctly. This can lead to corruption if the reshape is not allowed to complete. This patch is suitable for any -stable kernel which supports RAID10 reshape, which is 3.5 and later. Fixes: 3ea7daa5d7fd ("md/raid10: add reshape support") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org (v3.5+ please wait for -final to be out for 2 weeks) Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>
2015-07-22md/raid5: avoid races when changing cache size.NeilBrown
Cache size can grow or shrink due to various pressures at any time. So when we resize the cache as part of a 'grow' operation (i.e. change the size to allow more devices) we need to blocks that automatic growing/shrinking. So introduce a mutex. auto grow/shrink uses mutex_trylock() and just doesn't bother if there is a blockage. Resizing the whole cache holds the mutex to ensure that the correct number of new stripes is allocated. This bug can result in some stripes not being freed when an array is stopped. This leads to the kmem_cache not being freed and a subsequent array can try to use the same kmem_cache and get confused. Fixes: edbe83ab4c27 ("md/raid5: allow the stripe_cache to grow and shrink.")

2015-07-16dm thin: stay in out-of-data-space mode once no_space_timeout expiresMike Snitzer
This fixes an issue where running out of data space would cause the thin-pool's metadata to become read-only. There was no reason to make metadata read-only -- calling set_pool_mode() with PM_READ_ONLY was a misguided way to error all queued and future write IOs. We can accomplish the same by degrading from PM_OUT_OF_DATA_SPACE to PM_OUT_OF_DATA_SPACE with error_if_no_space enabled. Otherwise, the use of PM_READ_ONLY could cause a race where commit() was started before the PM_READ_ONLY transition but dm_pool_commit_metadata() would go on to fail because the block manager had transitioned to read-only. The return of -EPERM from dm_pool_commit_metadata(), due to attempting to commit while in read-only mode, caused the thin-pool to set 'needs_check' because a metadata_operation_failed(). This needless cascade of failures makes life for users more difficult than needed. Reported-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
2015-07-13dm: fix use after free crash due to incorrect cleanup sequenceMikulas Patocka
Linux 4.2-rc1 Commit 0f20972f7bf6 ("dm: factor out a common cleanup_mapped_device()") moved a common cleanup code to a separate function. Unfortunately, that commit incorrectly changed the order of cleanup, so that it destroys the mapped_device's srcu structure 'io_barrier' before destroying its workqueue. The function that is executed on the workqueue (dm_wq_work) uses the srcu structure, thus it may use it after being freed. That results in a crash in the LVM test suite's mirror-vgreduce-removemissing.sh test.

Pull core block IO update from Jens Axboe: "Nothing really major in here, mostly a collection of smaller optimizations and cleanups, mixed with various fixes. In more detail, this contains: - Addition of policy specific data to blkcg for block cgroups. From Arianna Avanzini. - Various cleanups around command types from Christoph. - Cleanup of the suspend block I/O path from Christoph. - Plugging updates from Shaohua and Jeff Moyer, for blk-mq. - Eliminating atomic inc/dec of both remaining IO count and reference count in a bio. From me. - Fixes for SG gap and chunk size support for data-less (discards) IO, so we can merge these better. From me. - Small restructuring of blk-mq shared tag support, freeing drivers from iterating hardware queues. From Keith Busch. - A few cfq-iosched tweaks, from Tahsin Erdogan and me. Makes the IOPS mode the default for non-rotational storage" * 'for-4.2/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (35 commits) cfq-iosched: fix other locations where blkcg_to_cfqgd() can return NULL cfq-iosched: fix sysfs oops when attempting to read unconfigured weights cfq-iosched: move group scheduling functions under ifdef cfq-iosched: fix the setting of IOPS mode on SSDs blktrace: Add blktrace.c to BLOCK LAYER in MAINTAINERS file block, cgroup: implement policy-specific per-blkcg data block: Make CFQ default to IOPS mode on SSDs block: add blk_set_queue_dying() to blkdev.h blk-mq: Shared tag enhancements block: don't honor chunk sizes for data-less IO block: only honor SG gap prevention for merges that contain data block: fix returnvar.cocci warnings block, dm: don't copy bios for request clones block: remove management of bi_remaining when restoring original bi_end_io block: replace trylock with mutex_lock in blkdev_reread_part() block: export blkdev_reread_part() and __blkdev_reread_part() suspend: simplify block I/O handling block: collapse bio bit space block: remove unused BIO_RW_BLOCK and BIO_EOF flags block: remove BIO_EOPNOTSUPP ...
2015-06-25md: clear Blocked flag on failed devices when array is read-only.Neil Brown
The Blocked flag indicates that a device has failed but that this fact hasn't been recorded in the metadata yet. Writes to such devices cannot be allowed until the metadata has been updated. On a read-only array, the Blocked flag will never be cleared. This prevents the device being removed from the array. If the metadata is being handled by the kernel (i.e. !mddev->external), then we can be sure that if the array is switch to writable, then a metadata update will happen and will record the failure. So we don't need the flag set. If metadata is externally managed, it is upto the external manager to clear the 'blocked' flag.

2015-06-25md: unlock mddev_lock on an error path.NeilBrown

2015-06-25md: clear mddev->private when it has been freed.NeilBrown
If ->private is set when ->run is called, it is assumed to be a 'config' prepared as part of 'reshape'. So it is important when we free that config, that we also clear ->private. This is not often a problem as the mddev will normally be discarded shortly after the config us freed. However if an 'assemble' races with a final close, the assemble can use the old mddev which has a stale ->private. This leads to any of various sorts of crashes. So clear ->private after calling ->free().

2015-06-17dm cache: switch the "default" cache replacement policy from mq to smqMike Snitzer
The Stochastic multiqueue (SMQ) policy (vs MQ) offers the promise of less memory utilization, improved performance and increased adaptability in the face of changing workloads. SMQ also does not have any cumbersome tuning knobs. Users may switch from "mq" to "smq" simply by appropriately reloading a DM table that is using the cache target. Doing so will cause all of the mq policy's hints to be dropped. Also, performance of the cache may degrade slightly until smq recalculates the origin device's hotspots that should be cached. In the future the "mq" policy will just silently make use of "smq" and the mq code will be removed. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Acked-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com>
2015-06-17dm space map metadata: fix occasional leak of a metadata block on resizeJoe Thornber
The metadata space map has a simplified 'bootstrap' mode that is operational when extending the space maps. Whilst in this mode it's possible for some refcount decrement operations to become queued (eg, as a result of shadowing one of the bitmap indexes). These decrements were not being applied when switching out of bootstrap mode. The effect of this bug was the leaking of a 4k metadata block. This is detected by the latest version of thin_check as a non fatal error. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
