The stripe cache has two goals:
1. cache data, so next time if data can be found in stripe cache, disk access
can be avoided.
2. stable data. data is copied from bio to stripe cache and calculated parity.
data written to disk is from stripe cache, so if upper layer changes bio data,
data written to disk isn't impacted.

In my environment, I can guarantee 2 will not happen. And BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES
can guarantee 2 too. For 1, it's not common too. block plug mechanism will
dispatch a bunch of sequentail small requests together. And since I'm using
SSD, I'm using small chunk size. It's rare case stripe cache is really useful.

So I'd like to avoid the copy from bio to stripe cache and it's very helpful
for performance. In my 1M randwrite tests, avoid the copy can increase the
performance more than 30%.

Of course, this shouldn't be enabled by default. It's reported enabling
BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES can harm some workloads before, so I added an option to
control it.

The (lockless) release_list reduces lock contention, but there is excessive
queueing and dequeuing of stripes on this list.  A stripe will currently be
queued on the release_list with a stripe reference count > 1.  This can cause
the raid5 kernel thread(s) to dequeue the stripe and decrement the refcount
without doing any other useful processing of the stripe.  The are two cases
when the stripe can be put on the release_list multiple times before it is
actually handled by the kernel thread(s).
1) make_request() activates the stripe processing in 4k increments.  When a
   write request is large enough to span multiple chunks of a stripe_head, the
   first 4k chunk adds the stripe to the plug list.  The next 4k chunk that is
   processed for the same stripe puts the stripe on the release_list with a
   refcount=2.  This can cause the kernel thread to process and decrement the
   stripe before the stripe us unplugged, which again will put it back on the
   release_list.
2) Whenever IO is scheduled on a stripe (pre-read and/or write), the stripe
   refcount is set to the number of active IO (for each chunk).  The stripe is
   released as each IO complete, and can be queued and dequeued multiple times
   on the release_list, until its refcount finally reached zero.

This simple patch will ensure a stripe is only queued on the release_list when
its refcount=1 and is ready to be handled by the kernel thread(s).  I added some
instrumentation to raid5 and counted the number of times striped were queued on
the release_list for a variety of write IO sizes.  Without this patch the number
of times stripes got queued on the release_list was 100-500% higher than with
the patch.  The excess queuing will increase with the IO size.  The patch also
improved throughput by 5-10%.

If it is found that we need to pre-read some blocks before a write
can succeed, we normally set STRIPE_DELAYED and don't actually perform
the read until STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE subsequently gets set.

However for a degraded RAID6 we currently perform the reads as soon
as we see that a write is pending.  This significantly hurts
throughput.

So:
 - when handle_stripe_dirtying find a block that it wants on a device
   that is failed, set STRIPE_DELAY, instead of doing nothing, and
 - when fetch_block detects that a read might be required to satisfy a
   write, only perform the read if STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE is set,
   and if we would actually need to read something to complete the write.

This also helps RAID5, though less often as RAID5 supports a
read-modify-write cycle.  For RAID5 the read is performed too early
only if the write is not a full 4K aligned write (i.e. no an
R5_OVERWRITE).

Also clean up a couple of horrible bits of formatting.

   md: fix problem when adding device to read-only array with bitmap.

added a called to md_reap_sync_thread() which cause a reshape thread
to be interrupted (in particular, it could cause md_thread() to never even
call md_do_sync()).
However it didn't set MD_RECOVERY_INTR so ->finish_reshape() would not
know that the reshape didn't complete.

This only happens when mddev->ro is set and normally reshape threads
don't run in that situation.  But raid5 and raid10 can start a reshape
thread during "run" is the array is in the middle of a reshape.
They do this even if ->ro is set.

So it is best to set MD_RECOVERY_INTR before abortingg the
sync thread, just in case.

Though it rare for this to trigger a problem it can cause data corruption
because the reshape isn't finished properly.
So it is suitable for any stable which the offending commit was applied to.

If mddev->ro is set, md_to_sync will (correctly) abort.
However in that case MD_RECOVERY_INTR isn't set.

If a RESHAPE had been requested, then ->finish_reshape() will be
called and it will think the reshape was successful even though
nothing happened.

Normally a resync will not be requested if ->ro is set, but if an
array is stopped while a reshape is on-going, then when the array is
started, the reshape will be restarted.  If the array is also set
read-only at this point, the reshape will instantly appear to success,
resulting in data corruption.

Consequently, this patch is suitable for any -stable kernel.

The DM crypt target used per-cpu structures to hold pointers to a
ablkcipher_request structure.  The code assumed that the work item keeps
executing on a single CPU, so it didn't use synchronization when
accessing this structure.

If a CPU is disabled by writing 0 to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online,
the work item could be moved to another CPU.  This causes dm-crypt
crashes, like the following, because the code starts using an incorrect
ablkcipher_request:

Fix this bug by removing the per-cpu definition.  The structure
ablkcipher_request is accessed via a pointer from convert_context.
Consequently, if the work item is rescheduled to a different CPU, the
thread still uses the same ablkcipher_request.

1/ this is ineffective: user-space need to be involved in any 'safemode' handling,
2/ The safemode management code doesn't cope with safemode==2 on external metadata

If md-mod is unloaded while some process is in poll() or select(),

The procfs infrastructure ensures that ->poll won't be called after

 2/ wake up all processes currently waiting, and

dm_bio_prison_cell must be allocated as a side-effect of bio_detain():

We can't process deferred bios with the rcu lock held, since
dm_bio_prison_cell allocation may block if the bio-prison's cell mempool
is exhausted.

To fix:

- Introduce a refcount and completion field to each thin_c

- Add thin_get/put methods for adjusting the refcount.  If the refcount
  hits zero then the completion is triggered.

- Initialise refcount to 1 when creating thin_c

- When iterating the active_thins list we thin_get() whilst the rcu
  lock is held.

- After the rcu lock is dropped we process the deferred bios for that
  thin.

- When destroying a thin_c we thin_put() and then wait for the
  completion -- to avoid a race between the worker thread iterating
  from that thin_c and destroying the thin_c.

When suspending a cache the policy is walked and the individual policy
hints written to the metadata via sync_metadata().  This led to this
lock order:

When loading the cache target the policy is populated while the metadata
lock is held:

      cache_metadata->root_lock
         policy->lock

Fix this potential lock-inversion (ABBA) deadlock in sync_metadata() by
ensuring the cache_metadata root_lock is held whilst all the hints are
written, rather than being repeatedly locked while policy->lock is held
(as was the case with each callout that policy_walk_mappings() made to
the old save_hint() method).

LOCKDEP reported paths can lead to a deadlock since the two paths,
suspending a target and loading a target, never occur at the same time.

A thin-pool will allocate blocks using FIFO order for all thin devices
which share the thin-pool.  Because of this simplistic allocation the
thin-pool's space can become fragmented quite easily; especially when
multiple threads are requesting blocks in parallel.

Sort each thin device's deferred_bio_list based on logical sector to
help reduce fragmentation of the thin-pool's ondisk layout.

The following tables illustrate the realized gains/potential offered by
sorting each thin device's deferred_bio_list.  An "io size"-sized random
read of the device would result in "seeks/io" fragments being read, with
an average "distance/seek" between each fragment.

process_queued_ios() has served 3 functions:
  1) select pg and pgpath if none is selected
  2) start pg_init if requested
  3) dispatch queued IOs when pg is ready

Basically, a call to queue_work(process_queued_ios) can be replaced by
dm_table_run_md_queue_async(), which runs request queue and ends up
calling map_io(), which does 1), 2) and 3).

Exception is when !pg_ready() (which means either pg_init is running or
requested), then multipath_busy() prevents map_io() being called from
request_fn.

If pg_init is running, it should be ok as long as pg_init_done() does
the right thing when pg_init is completed, I.e.: restart pg_init if
!pg_ready() or call dm_table_run_md_queue_async() to kick map_io().

If pg_init is requested, we have to make sure the request is detected
and pg_init will be started.  pg_init is requested in 3 places:
  a) __choose_pgpath() in map_io()
  b) __choose_pgpath() in multipath_ioctl()
  c) pg_init retry in pg_init_done()
a) is ok because map_io() calls __pg_init_all_paths(), which does 2).
b) needs a call to __pg_init_all_paths(), which does 2).
c) needs a call to __pg_init_all_paths(), which does 2).

So this patch removes process_queued_ios() and ensures that
__pg_init_all_paths() is called at the appropriate locations.

There is no reason why multipath needs to queue requests internally for
queue_if_no_path or pg_init; we should rather push them back onto the
request queue.

And while we're at it we can simplify the conditional statement in
map_io() to make it easier to read.

Since mpath no longer does internal queuing of I/O the table info no
longer emits the internal queue_size.  Instead it displays 1 if queuing
is being used or 0 if it is not.

Introduce dm_table_run_md_queue_async() to run the request_queue of the
mapped_device associated with a request-based DM table.

Also add dm_md_get_queue() wrapper to extract the request_queue from a
mapped_device.

This patch moves condition checks as a preparation of following
patches and has no effect on behaviour.
process_queued_ios() is the only caller of __pg_init_all_paths()
and 2 condition checks are moved from outside to inside without
side effects.

Replace rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL).

The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure
is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure.  And in the
case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize.  So,
rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to
RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL).
