In the far-too-complicated closure code - closures can have destructors,
for probably dubious reasons; they get run after the closure is no
longer waiting on anything but before dropping the parent ref, intended
just for freeing whatever memory the closure is embedded in.
Trouble is, when remaining goes to 0 and we've got nothing more to run -
we also have to unlock the closure, setting remaining to -1. If there's
a destructor, that unlock isn't doing anything - nobody could be trying
to lock it if we're about to free it - but if the unlock _is needed...
that check for a destructor was racy. Argh.

dm-switch is a new target that maps IO to underlying block devices
efficiently when there is a large number of fixed-sized address regions
but there is no simple pattern to allow for a compact mapping
representation such as dm-stripe.
Though we have developed this target for a specific storage device, Dell
EqualLogic, we have made an effort to keep it as general purpose as
possible in the hope that others may benefit.

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.
Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.
dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.
If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

Fix a boundary condition that caused failure for certain device sizes.
The problem is reported at
http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/issues/detail?id=160
For certain device sizes the number of hashes at a specific level was
calculated incorrectly.
It happens for example for a device with data and metadata block size 4096
that has 16385 blocks and algorithm sha256.
The user can test if he is affected by this bug by running the
"veritysetup verify" command and also by activating the dm-verity kernel
driver and reading the whole block device. If it passes without an error,
then the user is not affected.
The condition for the bug is:
Split the total number of data blocks (data_block_bits) into bit strings,
each string has hash_per_block_bits bits. hash_per_block_bits is
rounddown(log2(metadata_block_size/hash_digest_size)). Equivalently, you
can say that you convert data_blocks_bits to 2^hash_per_block_bits base.
If there some zero bit string below the most significant bit string and at
least one bit below this zero bit string is set, then the bug happens.
The same bug exists in the userspace veritysetup tool, so you must use
fixed veritysetup too if you want to use devices that are affected by
this boundary condition.

When multipath needs to retry an ioctl the reference to the
current live table needs to be dropped. Otherwise a deadlock
occurs when all paths are down:
- dm_blk_ioctl takes a reference to the current table
and spins in multipath_ioctl().
- A new table is being loaded, but upon resume the process
hangs in dm_table_destroy() waiting for references to
drop to zero.
With this patch the reference to the old table is dropped
prior to retry, thereby avoiding the deadlock.

commit 7e83ccbecd608b971f340e951c9e84cd0343002f
md/raid10: Allow skipping recovery when clean arrays are assembled
Causes raid10 to skip a recovery in certain cases where it is safe to
do so. Unfortunately it also causes a reshape to be skipped which is
never safe. The result is that an attempt to reshape a RAID10 will
appear to complete instantly, but no data will have been moves so the
array will now contain garbage.
(If nothing is written, you can recovery by simple performing the
reverse reshape which will also complete instantly).
Bug was introduced in 3.10, so this is suitable for 3.10-stable.

There is a bug in 'check_reshape' for raid5.c To checks
that the new minimum number of devices is large enough (which is
good), but it does so also after the reshape has started (bad).
This is bad because
- the calculation is now wrong as mddev->raid_disks has changed
already, and
- it is pointless because it is now too late to stop.
So only perform that test when reshape has not been committed to.

1/ If a RAID10 is being reshaped to a fewer number of devices
and is stopped while this is ongoing, then when the array is
reassembled the 'mirrors' array will be allocated too small.
This will lead to an access error or memory corruption.
2/ A sanity test for a reshaping RAID10 array is restarted
is slightly incorrect.
Due to the first bug, this is suitable for any -stable
kernel since 3.5 where this code was introduced.

Some of bcache's utility code has made it into the rest of the kernel,
so drop the bcache versions.
Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under
generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you
already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you
submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT
when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation
could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has
a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error
handling.

Now that we're tracking dirty data per stripe, we can add two
optimizations for raid5/6:
* If a stripe is already dirty, force writes to that stripe to
writeback mode - to help build up full stripes of dirty data
* When flushing dirty data, preferentially write out full stripes first
if there are any.

The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null
pointer deref in one of the tracepoints.
Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a
performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it
was changed to an empty inline function.
Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as
part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even
on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

The most significant change is that btree reads are now done
synchronously, instead of asynchronously and doing the post read stuff
from a workqueue.
This was originally done because we can't block on IO under
generic_make_request(). But - we already have a mechanism to punt cache
lookups to workqueue if needed, so if we just use that we don't have to
deal with the complexity of doing things asynchronously.
The main benefit is this makes the locking situation saner; we can hold
our write lock on the btree node until we're finished reading it, and we
don't need that btree_node_read_done() flag anymore.
Also, for writes, btree_write() was broken out into btree_node_write()
and btree_leaf_dirty() - the old code with the boolean argument was dumb
and confusing.
The prio_blocked mechanism was improved a bit too, now the only counter
is in struct btree_write, we don't mess with transfering a count from
struct btree anymore.
This required changing garbage collection to block prios at the start
and unblock when it finishes, which is cleaner than what it was doing
anyways (the old code had mostly the same effect, but was doing it in a
convoluted way)
And the btree iter btree_node_read_done() uses was converted to a real
mempool.

it comes to what is recorded in mismatch_cnt in sysfs. If the
last operation was "data-check", then it reports the number of
descrepancies found by the user-initiated check. If it was a
"repair" operation, then it is reporting the number of
descrepancies repaired. etc.

RAID5 uses a 'per-array' value for the 'size' of each device.
RAID0 uses a 'per-device' value - it can be different for each device.
When converting a RAID5 to a RAID0 we must ensure that the per-device
size of each device matches the per-array size for the RAID5, else
the array will change size.
If the metadata cannot record a changed per-device size (as is the
case with v0.90 metadata) the array could get bigger on restart. This
does not cause data corruption, so it not a big issue and is mainly
yet another a reason to not use 0.90.

It isn't really enough to check that the rdev is present, we need to

As 'enough' accesses conf->prev and conf->geo, which can change
spontanously, it should guard against changes.
This can be done with device_lock as start_reshape holds device_lock
while updating 'geo' and end_reshape holds it while updating 'prev'.
So 'error' needs to hold 'device_lock'.
On the other hand, raid10_end_read_request knows which of the two it
really wants to access, and as it is an active request on that one,
the value cannot change underneath it.
So change _enough to take flag rather than a pointer, pass the
appropriate flag from raid10_end_read_request(), and remove the locking.
All other calls to 'enough' are made with reconfig_mutex held, so
neither 'prev' nor 'geo' can change.

DM RAID: Fix raid_resume not reviving failed devices in all cases
When a device fails in a RAID array, it is marked as Faulty. Later,
md_check_recovery is called which (through the call chain) calls
'hot_remove_disk' in order to have the personalities remove the device
from use in the array.
Sometimes, it is possible for the array to be suspended before the
personalities get their chance to perform 'hot_remove_disk'. This is
normally not an issue. If the array is deactivated, then the failed
device will be noticed when the array is reinstantiated. If the
array is resumed and the disk is still missing, md_check_recovery will
be called upon resume and 'hot_remove_disk' will be called at that
time. However, (for dm-raid) if the device has been restored,
a resume on the array would cause it to attempt to revive the device
by calling 'hot_add_disk'. If 'hot_remove_disk' had not been called,
a situation is then created where the device is thought to concurrently
be the replacement and the device to be replaced. Thus, the device
is first sync'ed with the rest of the array (because it is the replacement
device) and then marked Faulty and removed from the array (because
it is also the device being replaced).
The solution is to check and see if the device had properly been removed
before the array was suspended. This is done by seeing whether the
device's 'raid_disk' field is -1 - a condition that implies that
'md_check_recovery -> remove_and_add_spares (where raid_disk is set to -1)
-> hot_remove_disk' has been called. If 'raid_disk' is not -1, then
'hot_remove_disk' must be called to complete the removal of the previously
faulty device before it can be revived via 'hot_add_disk'.

Pull md bugfixes from Neil Brown:

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.
|
|
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]

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.

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.
