      md: remove rd%d links immediately after stopping an array. · c4647292
      NeilBrown 提交于
      md maintains link in sys/mdXX/md/ to identify which device has
      which role in the array. e.g.
         rd2 -> dev-sda
      
      indicates that the device with role '2' in the array is sda.
      
      These links are only present when the array is active.  They are
      created immediately after ->run is called, and so should be removed
      immediately after ->stop is called.
      However they are currently removed a little bit later, and it is
      possible for ->run to be called again, thus adding these links, before
      they are removed.
      
      So move the removal earlier so they are consistently only present when
      the array is active.

      md: remove ability to explicit set an inactive array to 'clean'. · 5bf29597
      NeilBrown 提交于
      Being able to write 'clean' to an 'array_state' of an inactive array
      to activate it in 'clean' mode is both unnecessary and inconvenient.
      
      It is unnecessary because the same can be achieved by writing
      'active'.  This activates and array, but it still remains 'clean'
      until the first write.
      
      It is inconvenient because writing 'clean' is more often used to
      cause an 'active' array to revert to 'clean' mode (thus blocking
      any writes until a 'write-pending' is promoted to 'active').
      
      Allowing 'clean' to both activate an array and mark an active array as
      clean can lead to races:  One program writes 'clean' to mark the
      active array as clean at the same time as another program writes
      'inactive' to deactivate (stop) and active array.  Depending on which
      writes first, the array could be deactivated and immediately
      reactivated which isn't what was desired.
      
      So just disable the use of 'clean' to activate an array.
      
      This avoids a race that can be triggered with mdadm-3.0 and external
      metadata, so it suitable for -stable.

      md: tidy up status_resync to handle large arrays. · dd71cf6b
      NeilBrown 提交于
      Two problems in status_resync.
      1/ It still used Kilobytes as the basic block unit, while most code
         now uses sectors uniformly.
      2/ It doesn't allow for the possibility that max_sectors exceeds
         the range of "unsigned long".
      
      So
       - change "max_blocks" to "max_sectors", and store sector numbers
         in there and in 'resync'
       - Make 'rt' a 'sector_t' so it can temporarily hold the number of
         remaining sectors.
       - use sector_div rather than normal division.
       - change the magic '100' used to preserve precision to '32'.
         + making it a power of 2 makes division easier
         + it doesn't need to be as large as it was chosen when we averaged
           speed over the entire run.  Now we average speed over the last 30
           seconds or so.

      md/raid10: don't clear bitmap during recovery if array will still be degraded. · 18055569
      NeilBrown 提交于
      If we have a raid10 with multiple missing devices, and we recover just
      one of these to a spare, then we risk (depending on the bitmap and
      array chunk size) clearing bits of the bitmap for which recovery isn't
      complete (because a device is still missing).
      
      This can lead to a subsequent "re-add" being recovered without
      any IO happening, which would result in loss of data.
      
      This patch takes the safe approach of not clearing bitmap bits
      if the array will still be degraded.
      
      This patch is suitable for all active -stable kernels.

      md: fix loading of out-of-date bitmap. · b74fd282
      NeilBrown 提交于
      When md is loading a bitmap which it knows is out of date, it fills
      each page with 1s and writes it back out again.  However the
      write_page call makes used of bitmap->file_pages and
      bitmap->last_page_size which haven't been set correctly yet.  So this
      can sometimes fail.
      
      Move the setting of file_pages and last_page_size to before the call
      to write_page.
      
      This bug can cause the assembly on an array to fail, thus making the
      data inaccessible.  Hence I think it is a suitable candidate for
      -stable.

      md: update sync_completed and reshape_position even more often. · c03f6a19
      NeilBrown 提交于
      There are circumstances when a user-space process might need to
      "oversee" a resync/reshape process.  For example when doing an
      in-place reshape of a raid5, it is prudent to take a backup of each
      section before reshaping it as this is the only way to provide
      safety against an unplanned shutdown (i.e. crash/power failure).
      
      The sync_max sysfs value can be used to stop the resync from
      advancing beyond a particular point.
      So user-space can:
        suspend IO to the first section and back it up
        set 'sync_max' to the end of the section
        wait for 'sync_completed' to reach that point
        resume IO on the first section and move on to the next section.
      
      However this process requires the kernel and user-space to run in
      lock-step which could introduce unnecessary delays.
      
      It would be better if a 'double buffered' approach could be used with
      userspace and kernel space working on different sections with the
      'next' section always ready when the 'current' section is finished.
      
      One problem with implementing this is that sync_completed is only
      guaranteed to be updated when the sync process reaches sync_max.
      (it is updated on a time basis at other times, but it is hard to rely
      on that).  This defeats some of the double buffering.
      
      With this patch, sync_completed (and reshape_position) get updated as
      the current position approaches sync_max, so there is room for
      userspace to advance sync_max early without losing updates.
      
      To be precise, sync_completed is updated when the current sync
      position reaches half way between the current value of sync_completed
      and the value of sync_max.  This will usually be a good time for user
      space to update sync_max.
      
      If sync_max does not get updated, the updates to sync_completed
      (together with associated metadata updates) will occur at an
      exponentially increasing frequency which will get unreasonably fast
      (one update every page) immediately before the process hits sync_max
      and stops.  So the update rate will be unreasonably fast only for an
      insignificant period of time.

      md: improve usefulness and accuracy of sysfs file md/sync_completed. · acb180b0
      NeilBrown 提交于
      The sync_completed file reports how much of a resync (or recovery or
      reshape) has been completed.
      However due to the possibility of out-of-order completion of writes,
      it is not certain to be accurate.
      
      We have an internal value - mddev->curr_resync_completed - which is an
      accurate value (though it might not always be quite so uptodate).
      
      So:
       - make curr_resync_completed be uptodate a little more often,
         particularly when raid5 reshape updates status in the metadata
       - report curr_resync_completed in the sysfs file
       - allow poll/select to report all updates to md/sync_completed.
      
      This makes sync_completed completed usable by any external metadata
      handler that wants to record this status information in its metadata.

      dm kcopyd: fix callback race · 340cd444
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      If the thread calling dm_kcopyd_copy is delayed due to scheduling inside
      split_job/segment_complete and the subjobs complete before the loop in
      split_job completes, the kcopyd callback could be invoked from the
      thread that called dm_kcopyd_copy instead of the kcopyd workqueue.
      
      dm_kcopyd_copy -> split_job -> segment_complete -> job->fn()
      
      Snapshots depend on the fact that callbacks are called from the singlethreaded
      kcopyd workqueue and expect that there is no racing between individual
      callbacks. The racing between callbacks can lead to corruption of exception
      store and it can also mean that exception store callbacks are called twice
      for the same exception - a likely reason for crashes reported inside
      pending_complete() / remove_exception().
      
      This patch fixes two problems:
      
      1. job->fn being called from the thread that submitted the job (see above).
      
      - Fix: hand over the completion callback to the kcopyd thread.
      
      2. job->fn(read_err, write_err, job->context); in segment_complete
      reports the error of the last subjob, not the union of all errors.
      
      - Fix: pass job->write_err to the callback to report all error bits
        (it is done already in run_complete_job)

      dm: implement basic barrier support · af7e466a
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      Barriers are submitted to a worker thread that issues them in-order.
      
      The thread is modified so that when it sees a barrier request it waits
      for all pending IO before the request then submits the barrier and
      waits for it.  (We must wait, otherwise it could be intermixed with
      following requests.)
      
      Errors from the barrier request are recorded in a per-device barrier_error
      variable. There may be only one barrier request in progress at once.
      
      For now, the barrier request is converted to a non-barrier request when
      sending it to the underlying device.
      
      This patch guarantees correct barrier behavior if the underlying device
      doesn't perform write-back caching. The same requirement existed before
      barriers were supported in dm.
      
      Bottom layer barrier support (sending barriers by target drivers) and
      handling devices with write-back caches will be done in further patches.
