Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Significant DM thin-provisioning performance improvements to meet
performance requirements that were requested by the Gluster
distributed filesystem.
Specifically, dm-thinp now takes care to aggregate IO that will be
issued to the same thinp block before issuing IO to the underlying
devices. This really helps improve performance on HW RAID6 devices
that have a writeback cache because it avoids RMW in the HW RAID
controller.
- Some stable fixes: fix leak in DM bufio if integrity profiles were
enabled, use memzero_explicit in DM crypt to avoid any potential for
information leak, and a DM cache fix to properly mark a cache block
dirty if it was promoted to the cache via the overwrite optimization.
- A few simple DM persistent data library fixes
- DM cache multiqueue policy block promotion improvements.
- DM cache discard improvements that take advantage of range
(multiblock) discard support in the DM bio-prison. This allows for
much more efficient bulk discard processing (e.g. when mkfs.xfs
discards the entire device).
- Some small optimizations in DM core and RCU deference cleanups
- DM core changes to suspend/resume code to introduce the new internal
suspend/resume interface that the DM thin-pool target now uses to
suspend/resume active thin devices when the thin-pool must
suspend/resume.
This avoids forcing userspace to track all active thin volumes in a
thin-pool when the thin-pool is suspended for the purposes of
metadata or data space resize.

When dm-bufio sets out to use the bio built into a struct dm_buffer to
issue an IO, it needs to call bio_reset after it's done with the bio
so that we can free things attached to the bio such as the integrity
payload. Therefore, inject our own endio callback to take care of
the bio_reset after calling submit_io's end_io callback.
Test case:
1. modprobe scsi_debug delay=0 dif=1 dix=199 ato=1 dev_size_mb=300
2. Set up a dm-bufio client, e.g. dm-verity, on the scsi_debug device
3. Repeatedly read metadata and watch kmalloc-192 leak!

We never bother caching a partial block that is at the back end of the

assuming it was and trying to release it.
Now the code only releases if the cell has been set to a non NULL

block size
The discard block size can change if the origin changes size or if an
old DM cache is upgraded from using a discard block size that was equal
to cache block size.
To fix this an extent of discarded blocks is established for the purpose
of translating the old discard block size to the new in-core discard
block size and set bits. The old (potentially huge) discard bitset is
left ondisk until it is re-written using the new in-core information on
the next successful DM cache shutdown.

This could've been quite bad (to return success but not update the new

rcu_dereference() should be used in sections protected by rcu_read_lock.
For writers, holding some kind of mutex or lock,
rcu_dereference_protected() is the way to go, adding explicit lockdep
bits.
In __unbind(), we are the last user of this mapped device, so can use
the constant '1' instead of a lockdep_is_held(), not consistent with
other uses of rcu_dereference_protected() which use md->suspend_lock
mutex.

Simplify the pool_io_hints code that works to establish a max_sectors
value that is a power-of-2 factor of the thin-pool's blocksize. The
biggest associated improvement is that the DM thin-pool is no longer
concerning itself with the data device's max_hw_sectors when adjusting
max_sectors.
This fixes the relative fragility of the original "dm thin: adjust
max_sectors_kb based on thinp blocksize" commit that only became
apparent when testing was performed using a DM thin-pool ontop of a
virtio_blk device. One proposed upstream patch detailed the problems
inherent in virtio_blk: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/20/611
So even though virtio_blk incorrectly set its max_hw_sectors it actually
helped make it clear that we need DM thinp to be tolerant of any future
Linux driver that incorrectly sets max_hw_sectors.
We only need to be concerned with modifying the thin-pool device's
max_sectors limit if it is smaller than the thin-pool's blocksize. In
this case the value of max_sectors does become a limiting factor when
upper layers (e.g. filesystems) construct their bios. But if the
hardware can support IOs larger than the thin-pool's blocksize the user
is encouraged to adjust the thin-pool's data device's max_sectors
accordingly -- doing so will enable the thin-pool to inherit the
established user-defined max_sectors.

Before this change it was expected that userspace would first suspend
all active thin devices, reload/resize the thin-pool target, then resume
all active thin devices. Now the thin-pool suspend/resume will trigger
the suspend/resume of all active thins via appropriate calls to
dm_internal_suspend and dm_internal_resume.
Store the mapped_device for each thin device in struct thin_c to make
these calls possible.

Rename dm_internal_{suspend,resume} to dm_internal_{suspend,resume}_fast
-- dm-stats will continue using these methods to avoid all the extra
suspend/resume logic that is not needed in order to quickly flush IO.
Introduce dm_internal_suspend_noflush() variant that actually calls the
mapped_device's target callbacks -- otherwise target-specific hooks are
avoided (e.g. dm-thin's thin_presuspend and thin_postsuspend). Common
code between dm_internal_{suspend_noflush,resume} and
dm_{suspend,resume} was factored out as __dm_{suspend,resume}.
Update dm_internal_{suspend_noflush,resume} to always take and release
the mapped_device's suspend_lock. Also update dm_{suspend,resume} to be
aware of potential for DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to be set and respond
accordingly by interruptibly waiting for the DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to
be cleared. Add lockdep annotation to dm_suspend() and dm_resume().
The existing DM_SUSPEND_FLAG remains unchanged.
DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG is set by dm_internal_suspend_noflush() and
cleared by dm_internal_resume().
Both DM_SUSPEND_FLAG and DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG may be set if a device
was already suspended when dm_internal_suspend_noflush() was called --
this can be thought of as a "nested suspend". A "nested suspend" can
occur with legacy userspace dm-thin code that might suspend all active
thin volumes before suspending the pool for resize.
But otherwise, in the normal dm-thin-pool suspend case moving forward:
the thin-pool will have DM_SUSPEND_FLAG set and all active thins from
that thin-pool will have DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG set.
Also add DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to status report. This new
DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG state is being reported to assist with
debugging (e.g. 'dmsetup info' will report an internally suspended
device accordingly).

md_check_recovery will skip any recovery and also clear
MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED if MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN is set.
So when we clear _FROZEN, we must set _NEEDED and ensure that

Otherwise we could miss out on something that is needed.
In particular, this can make it impossible to remove a
failed device from an array is the 'recovery-needed' processing

Safely allow the discard blocksize to be larger than the cache blocksize
by using the bio prison's range locking support. This also improves
discard performance considerly because larger discards are issued to the
dm-cache device. The discard blocksize was always intended to be
greater than the cache blocksize. But until now it wasn't implemented
safely.
Also, by safely restoring the ability to have discard blocksize larger
than cache blocksize we're able to significantly reduce the memory used
for the cache's discard bitset. Before, with a small discard blocksize,
the discard bitset could get quite large because its size is a function
of the discard blocksize and the origin device's size. For example,
previously, using a 32KB cache blocksize with a 40TB origin resulted in
1280MB of incore memory use for the discard bitset! Now, the discard
blocksize is scaled up accordingly to ensure the discard bitset is
capped at 2**14 bits, or 16KB.

Rather than maintaining a separate promote_threshold variable that we
periodically update we now use the hit count of the oldest clean
block. Also add a fudge factor to discourage demoting dirty blocks.
With some tests this has a sizeable difference, because the old code
was too eager to demote blocks. For example, device-mapper-test-suite's
git_extract_cache_quick test goes from taking 190 seconds, to 142
(linear on spindle takes 250).

These code changes do not introduce a functional change.
But bio_add_page() will never attempt to build up a bio larger than
queue_max_sectors(). Similarly, bio_get_nr_vecs() is also bound by
queue_max_sectors(). Therefore, there is no point in allowing
dm_merge_bvec() to answer "how many sectors can a bio have at this
offset?" with anything larger than queue_max_sectors(). Using
queue_max_sectors() rather than BIO_MAX_SECTORS serves to more
accurately convey the limits that are being imposed.
Also, use unlikely() to clarify the fact that the defensive code in
dm_merge_bvec() relative to max_size going negative shouldn't ever
happen -- if it does happen there is a bug in the block layer for
requesting larger than dm_merge_bvec()'s initial response for a given
offset. Also, update a comment in dm_merge_bvec() relative to
max_hw_sectors_kb. And fix empty newline whitespace.

Throttle IO based on the time it's taking the worker to do one loop.
There were reports of hung task timeouts occuring and it was observed
that the excessively long avgqu-sz (as reported by iostat) was
contributing to these hung tasks.
Throttling definitely helps dm-thinp perform better under heavy IO load
(without being detremental by being overzealous). It reduces avgqu-sz
drastically, e.g.: from 60K to ~6K, and even as low as 150 once metadata
is cached by bufio, when dirty_ratio=5, dirty_background_ratio=2. And
avgqu-sz stays at or below 30K even with dirty_ratio=20,
dirty_background_ratio=10.
