Currently raid5 (the only module that supports restriping) notices that the reshape has finished be sync_request being given a large value, and handles any cleanup them. This patch changes it so md_check_recovery calls into an explicit finish_reshape method as well. The clean-up from sync_request can do things that need to be done promptly, typically things local to the raid5_conf_t structure. The "finish_reshape" method is called under the mddev_lock so it can do things involving reconfiguring the device. This allows us to get rid of md_set_array_sectors_locked, which would have caused a deadlock if you tried to stop and array while a reshape was happening. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Allow userspace to set the size of the array according to the following semantics: 1/ size must be <= to the size returned by mddev->pers->size(mddev, 0, 0) a) If size is set before the array is running, do_md_run will fail if size is greater than the default size b) A reshape attempt that reduces the default size to less than the set array size should be blocked 2/ once userspace sets the size the kernel will not change it 3/ writing 'default' to this attribute returns control of the size to the kernel and reverts to the size reported by the personality Also, convert locations that need to know the default size from directly reading ->array_sectors to <pers>_size. Resync/reshape operations always follow the default size. Finally, fixup other locations that read a number of 1k-blocks from userspace to use strict_blocks_to_sectors() which checks for unsigned long long to sector_t overflow and blocks to sectors overflow.

2-drive raid5's aren't very interesting. But if you are converting a raid1 into a raid5, you will at least temporarily have one. And that it a good time to set the layout/chunksize for the new RAID5 if you aren't happy with the defaults. layout and chunksize don't actually affect the placement of data on a 2-drive raid5, so we just do some internal book-keeping.

To be able to change the 'level' of an md/raid array, we need to suspend the device so that no requests are active - then move some pointers around etc. The code already keeps counts of active requests and the ->quiesce function can be used to wait until those counts hit zero. However the quiesce function blocks new requests once they are all ready 'inside' the personality module, and that is too late if we want to replace the personality modules. So make all md requests come in through a common md_make_request function that keeps track of how many requests have entered the modules but may not yet be on the internal reference counts. Allow md_make_request to be blocked when we want to suspend the device, and make it possible to wait for all those in-transit requests to be added to internal lists so that ->quiesce can wait for them. There is still a problem that when a request completes, we drop the ref count inside the personality code so there is a short time between when the refcount hits zero, and when the personality code is no longer being used. The personality code never blocks (schedule or spinlock) between dropping the refcount and exiting the routine, so this should be safe (as put_module calls synchronize_sched() before unmapping the module code).

This patch renames the "size" field of struct mddev_s to "dev_sectors" and stores the number of 512-byte sectors instead of the number of 1K-blocks in it. All users of that field, including raid levels 1,4-6,10, are adjusted accordingly. This simplifies the code a bit because it allows to get rid of a couple of divisions/multiplications by two. In order to make checkpatch happy, some minor coding style issues have also been addressed. In particular, size_store() now uses strict_strtoull() instead of simple_strtoull().

When a drive is added to an array using ADD_NEW_DISK, there are two places we can get certain flags from: the metadata on the disk or the flags passed through the IOCTL. For the WriteMostly flag (aka MD_DISK_WRITEMOSTLY) we take the value from either of those sources depending on if it is set (i.e. we effectively 'or' the two sources together). This makes it awkward to clear, and is at best inconsistent. As documented code (in mdadm) requires that setting MD_DISK_WRITEMOSTLY in the ioctl will be effective, we resolve the inconsistency by always using the value for this flag from the ioctl, and ignoring the value on disk.

Version 1.x metadata has the ability to record the status of a partially completed drive recovery. However we only update that record on a clean shutdown. It would be nice to update it on unclean shutdowns too, particularly when using a bitmap that removes much to the 'sync' effort after an unclean shutdown. One complication with checkpointing recovery is that we only know where we are up to in terms of IO requests started, not which ones have completed. And we need to know what has completed to record how much is recovered. So occasionally pause the recovery until all submitted requests are completed, then update the record of where we are up to. When we have a bitmap, we already do that pause occasionally to keep the bitmap up-to-date. So enhance that code to record the recovery offset and schedule a superblock update. And when there is no bitmap, just pause 16 times during the resync to do a checkpoint. '16' is a fairly arbitrary number. But we don't really have any good way to judge how often is acceptable, and it seems like a reasonable number for now. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

There are two problems with is_mddev_idle. 1/ sync_io is 'atomic_t' and hence 'int'. curr_events and all the rest are 'long'. So if sync_io were to wrap on a 64bit host, the value of curr_events would go very negative suddenly, and take a very long time to return to positive. So do all calculations as 'int'. That gives us plenty of precision for what we need. 2/ To initialise rdev->last_events we simply call is_mddev_idle, on the assumption that it will make sure that last_events is in a suitable range. It used to do this, but now it does not. So now we need to be more explicit about initialisation. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Each different metadata format supported by md supports a different maximum number of devices. We really should be enforcing this maximum in the kernel, but we aren't quite doing that properly. We currently only enforce it at the 'hot_add' point, which is an older interface which is not used by current userspace. We need to also enforce it at 'add_new_disk' time for active arrays and at 'do_md_run' time when starting a new array. So move the test from 'hot_add' into 'bind_rdev_to_array' which is called from both 'hot_add' and 'add_new_disk, and add a new test in 'analyse_sbs' which is called from 'do_md_run'. This bug (or missing feature) has been around "forever" and so the patch is suitable for any -stable that is currently maintained. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

If a raid1 has only one working drive and it has a sector which gives an error on read, then an attempt to recover onto a spare will fail, but as the single remaining drive is not removed from the array, the recovery will be immediately re-attempted, resulting in an infinite recovery loop. So detect this situation and don't retry recovery once an error on the lone remaining drive is detected. Allow recovery to be retried once every time a spare is added in case the problem wasn't actually a media error. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Using sequential numbers to identify md devices is somewhat artificial. Using names can be a lot more user-friendly. Also, creating md devices by opening the device special file is a bit awkward. So this patch provides a new option for creating and naming devices. Writing a name such as "md_home" to /sys/modules/md_mod/parameters/new_array will cause an array with that name to be created. It will appear in /sys/block/ /proc/partitions and /proc/mdstat as 'md_home'. It will have an arbitrary minor number allocated. md devices that a created by an open are destroyed on the last close when the device is inactive. For named md devices, they will not be destroyed until the array is explicitly stopped, either with the STOP_ARRAY ioctl or by writing 'clear' to /sys/block/md_XXXX/md/array_state. The name of the array must start 'md_' to avoid conflict with other devices. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Currently md devices, once created, never disappear until the module is unloaded. This is essentially because the gendisk holds a reference to the mddev, and the mddev holds a reference to the gendisk, this a circular reference. If we drop the reference from mddev to gendisk, then we need to ensure that the mddev is destroyed when the gendisk is destroyed. However it is not possible to hook into the gendisk destruction process to enable this. So we drop the reference from the gendisk to the mddev and destroy the gendisk when the mddev gets destroyed. However this has a complication. Between the call __blkdev_get->get_gendisk->kobj_lookup->md_probe and the call __blkdev_get->md_open there is no obvious way to hold a reference on the mddev any more, so unless something is done, it will disappear and gendisk will be destroyed prematurely. Also, once we decide to destroy the mddev, there will be an unlockable moment before the gendisk is unlinked (blk_unregister_region) during which a new reference to the gendisk can be created. We need to ensure that this reference can not be used. i.e. the ->open must fail. So: 1/ in md_probe we set a flag in the mddev (hold_active) which indicates that the array should be treated as active, even though there are no references, and no appearance of activity. This is cleared by md_release when the device is closed if it is no longer needed. This ensures that the gendisk will survive between md_probe and md_open. 2/ In md_open we check if the mddev we expect to open matches the gendisk that we did open. If there is a mismatch we return -ERESTARTSYS and modify __blkdev_get to retry from the top in that case. In the -ERESTARTSYS sys case we make sure to wait until the old gendisk (that we succeeded in opening) is really gone so we loop at most once. Some udev configurations will always open an md device when it first appears. If we allow an md device that was just created by an open to disappear on an immediate close, then this can race with such udev configurations and result in an infinite loop the device being opened and closed, then re-open due to the 'ADD' even from the first open, and then close and so on. So we make sure an md device, once created by an open, remains active at least until some md 'ioctl' has been made on it. This means that all normal usage of md devices will allow them to disappear promptly when not needed, but the worst that an incorrect usage will do it cause an inactive md device to be left in existence (it can easily be removed). As an array can be stopped by writing to a sysfs attribute echo clear > /sys/block/mdXXX/md/array_state we need to use scheduled work for deleting the gendisk and other kobjects. This allows us to wait for any pending gendisk deletion to complete by simply calling flush_scheduled_work(). Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

It is more balanced to just do simple initialisation in mddev_find, which allocates and links a new md device, and leave all the more sophisticated allocation to md_probe (which calls mddev_find). md_probe already allocated the gendisk.

But some calls to each_entry_safe don't really need a safe version, just a direct list_for_each_entry is enough, this could save a temp variable (tmp) in every function that used rdev_for_each. In this patch, most rdev_for_each loops are replaced by list_for_each_entry, totally save many tmp vars; and only in the other situations that will call list_del to delete an entry, the safe version is used.

There is no compelling need for this, but sysfs_notify_dirent is a nicer interface and the change is good for consistency. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

It turns out that it is only safe to call blkdev_ioctl when the device is actually open (as ->bd_disk is set to NULL on last close). And it is quite possible for do_md_stop to be called when the device is not open. So discard the call to blkdev_ioctl(BLKRRPART) which was added in commit 934d9c23 It is just as easy to call this ioctl from userspace when needed (on mdadm -S) so leave it out of the kernel Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md arrays are not currently destroyed when they are stopped - they remain in /sys/block. Last time I tried this I tripped over locking too much. A consequence of this is that udev doesn't remove anything from /dev. This is rather ugly. As an interim measure until proper device removal can be achieved, make sure all partitions are removed using the BLKRRPART ioctl, and send a KOBJ_CHANGE when an md array is stopped.

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers; to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following: 1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct prototypes, make (few) callers handle both. That's this changeset. 2) for each driver convert to new methods. *ALL* drivers are converted in this series. 3) kill the old (renamed) methods. Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the end of this series no trace of old methods remain. The only reason why we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver debugging if anything goes wrong. New methods: open(bdev, mode) release(disk, mode) ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called without BKL */ compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called with BKL, legacy */ Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The new extended partition support provides a much nicer was to have partitions on md devices that the 'mdp' alternate major. We cannot really get rid of 'mdp' at this time, but we can enable extended partitions as that will probably make life easier for sysadmins. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

The 'state' file for a device reports, for example, when the device has failed. Changes should be reported to userspace ASAP without the possibility of blocking on low-memory. sysfs_notify does have that possibility (as it takes a mutex which can be held across a kmalloc) so use sysfs_notify_dirent instead.

Now that we have sysfs_notify_dirent, use it to notify changes to md/array_state. As sysfs_notify_dirent can be called in atomic context, we can remove the delayed notify and the MD_NOTIFY_ARRAY_STATE flag. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
