We currently use '&' and '|' which isn't the norm in the kernel
and doesn't allow easy atomicity.
So change to bit numbers and {set,clear,test}_bit.
This allows us to remove a spinlock/unlock (which was dubious anyway)
and some other simplifications.

Just do single-bit manipulations on bitmap->flags and copy whole
value between that and sb->state.
This will allow next patch which changes how bit manipulations are
performed on bitmap->flags.
This does result in BITMAP_STALE not being set in sb by
bitmap_read_sb, however as the setting is determined by other
information in the 'sb' we do not lose information this way.
Normally, bitmap_load will be called shortly which will clear
BITMAP_STALE anyway.

This function isn't really needed. It sets or clears a flag in both
bitmap->flags and sb->state.
However both times it is called, bitmap_update_sb is called soon
afterwards which copies bitmap->flags to sb->state.
So just make changes to bitmap->flags, and open-code those rather than
hiding in a function.

Instead of allocating pages in read_sb_page, read_page and
bitmap_read_sb, allocate them all in bitmap_init_from disk.
Also replace the hack of calling "attach_page_buffers(page, NULL)" to

PagePrivate in free_buffer().

An md bitmap comprises two parts
- internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'.
- external storage of whether there are any active writes on
each chunk
The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the
second.
Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite
resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery
of a recently-removed device.
So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device.
In that case we default to 128M chunks.
A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap
(possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not
lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device.
We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come
in a later patch.

If we are to allow bitmaps to be resized when the array is resized,
we need to know how much space there is.
So create an attribute to store this information and set appropriate
defaults.
It can be set more precisely via sysfs, or future metadata extensions
may allow it to be recorded.

There are two different 'pending' concepts in the handling of the
write intent bitmap.
Firstly, a 'page' from the bitmap (which container PAGE_SIZE*8 bits)
may have changes (bits cleared) that should be written in due course.
There is no hurry for these and the page will transition from
PENDING to NEEDWRITE and will then be written, though if it ever
becomes DIRTY it will be written much sooner and PENDING will be
cleared.
Secondly, a page of counters - which contains PAGE_SIZE/2 counters, one
for each bit, can usefully have a 'pending' flag which indicates if
any of the counters are low (2 or 1) and ready to be processed by
bitmap_daemon_work(). If this flag is clear we can skip the whole
page.
These two concepts are currently combined in the bitmap-file flag.
This causes a tighter connection between the counters and the bitmap
file than I would like - as I want to add some flexibility to the
bitmap file.
So introduce a new flag with the page-of-counters, and rewrite
bitmap_daemon_work() so that it handles the two different 'pending'
concepts separately.
This also allows us to clear BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING when we write out
a dirty page, which may occasionally reduce the number of times we
write a page.

A 'near' or 'offset' lay RAID10 array can be reshaped to a different
'near' or 'offset' layout, a different chunk size, and a different
number of devices.
However the number of copies cannot change.
Unlike RAID5/6, we do not support having user-space backup data that
is being relocated during a 'critical section'. Rather, the
data_offset of each device must change so that when writing any block
to a new location, it will not over-write any data that is still
'live'.
This means that RAID10 reshape is not supportable on v0.90 metadata.
The different between the old data_offset and the new_offset must be
at least the larger of the chunksize multiplied by offset copies of
each of the old and new layout. (for 'near' mode, offset_copies == 1).
A larger difference of around 64M seems useful for in-place reshapes
as more data can be moved between metadata updates.
Very large differences (e.g. 512M) seem to slow the process down due
to lots of long seeks (on oldish consumer graded devices at least).
Metadata needs to be updated whenever the place we are about to write
to is considered - by the current metadata - to still contain data in
the old layout.

When RAID10 supports reshape it will need a 'previous' and a 'current'
geometry, so introduce that here.
Use the 'prev' geometry when before the reshape_position, and the
current 'geo' when beyond it. At other times, use both as
appropriate.
For now, both are identical (And reshape_position is never set).
When we use the 'prev' geometry, we must use the old data_offset.
When we use the current (And a reshape is happening) we must use
the new_data_offset.

Some resync type operations need to act on the address space of the
device, others on the address space of the array.
This only affects RAID10, so it sets resync_max_sectors to the array
size (it defaults to the device size), and that is currently used for
resync only. However reshape of a RAID10 must be done against the
array size, not device size, so change code to use resync_max_sectors
for both the resync and the reshape cases.
This does not affect RAID5 or RAID1, just RAID10.

Some code in raid1 and raid10 use sync_page_io to
read/write pages when responding to read errors.
As we will shortly support changing data_offset for
raid10, this function must understand new_data_offset.
So add that understanding.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

We will shortly be adding reshape support for RAID10 which will
require it having 2 concurrent geometries (before and after).
To make that easier, collect most geometry fields into 'struct geom'
and access them from there. Then we will more easily be able to add
a second set of fields.
Note that 'copies' is not in this struct and so cannot be changed.
There is little need to change this number and doing so is a lot
more difficult as it requires reallocating more things.
So leave it out for now.

When reshaping we can avoid costly intermediate backup by
changing the 'start' address of the array on the device
(if there is enough room).
So as a first step, allow such a change to be requested
through sysfs, and recorded in v1.x metadata.
(As we didn't previous check that all 'pad' fields were zero,
we need a new FEATURE flag for this.
A (belatedly) check that all remaining 'pad' fields are
zero to avoid a repeat of this)
The new data offset must be requested separately for each device.
This allows each to have a different change in the data offset.
This is not likely to be used often but as data_offset can be
set per-device, new_data_offset should be too.
This patch also removes the 'acknowledged' arg to rdev_set_badblocks as
it is never used and never will be. At the same time we add a new
arg ('in_new') which is currently always zero but will be used more
soon.
When a reshape finishes we will need to update the data_offset
and rdev->sectors. So provide an exported function to do that.

Currently a reshape operation always progresses from the start
of the array to the end unless the number of devices is being
reduced, in which case it progressed in the opposite direction.
To reverse a partial reshape which changes the number of devices
you can stop the array and re-assemble with the raid-disks numbers
reversed and it will undo.
However for a reshape that does not change the number of devices
it is not possible to reverse the reshape in the middle - you have to
wait until it completes.
So add a 'reshape_direction' attribute with is either 'forwards' or
'backwards' and can be explicitly set when delta_disks is zero.
This will become more important when we allow the data_offset to
change in a reshape. Then the explicit statement of what direction is
being used will be more useful.
This can be enabled in raid5 trivially as it already supports
reverse reshape and just needs to use a different trigger to request it.

dm thin: fix table output when pool target disables discard passdown internally
|
|
When the thin pool target clears the discard_passdown parameter
internally, it incorrectly changes the table line reported to userspace.
This breaks dumb string comparisons on these table lines in generic
userspace device-mapper library code and leads to tables being reloaded
repeatedly when nothing is actually meant to be changing.
This patch corrects this by no longer changing the table line when
discard passdown was disabled.
We can still tell when discard passdown is overridden by looking for the
message "Discard unsupported by data device (sdX): Disabling discard passdown."
This automatic detection is also moved from the 'load' to the 'resume'
so that it is re-evaluated should the properties of underlying devices
change.

|
Use del_timer_sync to remove timer before mddev_suspend finishes.
We don't want a timer going off after an mddev_suspend is called. This is
especially true with device-mapper, since it can call the destructor function
immediately following a suspend. This results in the removal (kfree) of the
structures upon which the timer depends - resulting in a very ugly panic.
Therefore, we add a del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend to prevent this.

raid10 stores dev_sectors in 'conf' separately from the one in
'mddev' because it can have a very significant effect on block
addressing and so need to be updated carefully.
However raid10_resize isn't updating it at all!
To update it correctly, we need to make sure it is a proper
multiple of the chunksize taking various details of the layout
in to account.
This calculation is currently done in setup_conf. So split it
out from there and call it from raid10_resize as well.
Then set conf->dev_sectors properly.

In 2009 Philip Reiser notied that a few users of netlink connector
interface needed a capability check and added the idiom
cap_raised(nsp->eff_cap, CAP_SYS_ADMIN) to a few of them, on the premise
that netlink was asynchronous.
In 2011 Patrick McHardy noticed we were being silly because netlink is
synchronous and removed eff_cap from the netlink_skb_params and changed
the idiom to cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN).
Looking at those spots with a fresh eye we should be calling
capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN). The only reason I can see for not calling capable
is that it once appeared we were not in the same task as the caller which
would have made calling capable() impossible.
In the initial user_namespace the only difference between between
cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN) and capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) are a
few sanity checks and the fact that capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) sets
PF_SUPERPRIV if we use the capability.
Since we are going to be using root privilege setting PF_SUPERPRIV seems
the right thing to do.
The motivation for this that patch is that in a child user namespace
cap_raised(current_cap(),...) tests your capabilities with respect to that
child user namespace not capabilities in the initial user namespace and
thus will allow processes that should be unprivielged to use the kernel
services that are only protected with cap_raised(current_cap(),..).
To fix possible user_namespace issues and to just clean up the code
replace cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN) with
capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

commit c744a65c1e2d59acc54333ce8
md: don't set md arrays to readonly on shutdown.
removed the possibility of a 'BUG' when data is written to an array
that has just been switched to read-only, but also introduced the
possibility that the array metadata could be corrupted.
If, when md_notify_reboot gets the mddev lock, the array is
in a state where it is assembled but hasn't been started (as can
happen if the personality module is not available, or in other unusual
situations), then incorrect metadata will be written out making it
impossible to re-assemble the array.
So only call __md_stop_writes() if the array has actually been
activated.
This patch is needed for any stable kernel which has had the above
commit applied.

This is suitable for any stable kernel since 3.1 when bad-block
management was introduced.

bitmap_new_disk_sb() would still create V3 bitmap superblock
with host-endian layout.
Perhaps I'm confused, but shouldn't bitmap_new_disk_sb() be
creating a V4 bitmap superblock instead, that is portable,
as per comment in bitmap.h?
