release_stripe still has big lock contention. We just add the stripe to a llist
without taking device_lock. We let the raid5d thread to do the real stripe
release, which must hold device_lock anyway. In this way, release_stripe
doesn't hold any locks.

The side effect is the released stripes order is changed. But sounds not a big
deal, stripes are never handled in order. And I thought block layer can already
do nice request merge, which means order isn't that important.

I kept the unplug release batch, which is unnecessary with this patch from lock
contention avoid point of view, and actually if we delete it, the stripe_head
release_list and lru can share storage. But the unplug release batch is also
helpful for request merge. We probably can delay wakeup raid5d till unplug, but
I'm still afraid of the case which raid5d is running.

When the last process closes /dev/mdX sync_blockdev will be called so
that all buffers get flushed.
So if it is then opened for the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to be sent there will
be nothing to flush.

However if we open /dev/mdX in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl just
moments before some other process which was writing closes their file
descriptor, then there won't be a 'last close' and the buffers might
not get flushed.

So do_md_stop() calls sync_blockdev().  However at this point it is
holding ->reconfig_mutex.  So if the array is currently 'clean' then
the writes from sync_blockdev() will not complete until the array
can be marked dirty and that won't happen until some other thread
can get ->reconfig_mutex.  So we deadlock.

We need to move the sync_blockdev() call to before we take
->reconfig_mutex.
However then some other thread could open /dev/mdX and write to it
after we call sync_blockdev() and before we actually stop the array.
This can leave dirty data in the page cache which is awkward.

So introduce new flag MD_STILL_CLOSED.  Set it before calling
sync_blockdev(), clear it if anyone does open the file, and abort the
STOP_ARRAY attempt if it gets set before we lock against further
opens.

It is still possible to get problems if you open /dev/mdX, write to
it, then issue the STOP_ARRAY ioctl.  Just don't do that.

If a device in a RAID4/5/6 is being replaced while another is being
recovered, then the writes to the replacement device currently don't
happen, resulting in corruption when the replacement completes and the
new drive takes over.

This is because the replacement writes are only triggered when
's.replacing' is set and not when the similar 's.sync' is set (which
is the case during resync and recovery - it means all devices need to
be read).

So schedule those writes when s.replacing is set as well.

In this case we cannot use "STRIPE_INSYNC" to record that the
replacement has happened as that is needed for recording that any
parity calculation is complete.  So introduce STRIPE_REPLACED to
record if the replacement has happened.

For safety we should also check that STRIPE_COMPUTE_RUN is not set.
This has a similar effect to the "s.locked == 0" test.  The latter
ensure that now IO has been flagged but not started.  The former
checks if any parity calculation has been flagged by not started.
We must wait for both of these to complete before triggering the
'replace'.

Add a similar test to the subsequent check for "are we finished yet".
This possibly isn't needed (is subsumed in the STRIPE_INSYNC test),
but it makes it more obvious that the REPLACE will happen before we
think we are finished.

Finally if a NeedReplace device is not UPTODATE then that is an
error.  We really must trigger a warning.

This bug was introduced in commit 9a3e1101
(md/raid5:  detect and handle replacements during recovery.)
which introduced replacement for raid5.
That was in 3.3-rc3, so any stable kernel since then would benefit
from this fix.

Recent change to use bio_copy_data() in raid1 when repairing
an array is faulty.

The underlying may have changed the bio in various ways using
bio_advance and these need to be undone not just for the 'sbio' which
is being copied to, but also the 'pbio' (primary) which is being
copied from.

So perform the reset on all bios that were read from and do it early.

This also ensure that the sbio->bi_io_vec[j].bv_len passed to
memcmp is correct.

This fixes a crash during a 'check' of a RAID1 array.  The crash was

commit 7ceb17e8
    md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.

allowed a bit more than just that.  It also allows devices to be added
to a read-write array and to end up skipping recovery.

This patch removes the offending piece of code pending a rewrite for a
subsequent release.

More specifically:
 If the array has a bitmap, then the device will still need a bitmap
 based resync ('saved_raid_disk' is set under different conditions
 is a bitmap is present).
 If the array doesn't have a bitmap, then this is correct as long as
 nothing has been written to the array since the metadata was checked
 by ->validate_super.  However there is no locking to ensure that there
 was no write.

Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption so
patch is suitable for 3.10-stable.

1/ When an different between blocks is found, data is copied from
   one bio to the other.  However bv_len is used as the length to
   copy and this could be zero.  So use r10_bio->sectors to calculate
   length instead.
   Using bv_len was probably always a bit dubious, but the introduction
   of bio_advance made it much more likely to be a problem.

2/ When preparing some blocks for sync, we don't set BIO_UPTODATE
   except on bios that we schedule for a read.  This ensures that
   missing/failed devices don't confuse the loop at the top of
   sync_request write.
   Commit 8be185f2 "raid10: Use bio_reset()"
   removed a loop which set BIO_UPTDATE on all appropriate bios.
   So we need to re-add that flag.

The journal replay code starts by finding something that looks like a

Trouble is, the logic was wrong - journal_read_bucket() returns true if
it found journal entries we need, but if the range of journal entries
we're looking for loops around the end of the journal - in that case
journal_read_bucket() could return true when it hadn't found the highest

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.

Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.

dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.

If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

Fix a boundary condition that caused failure for certain device sizes.

The problem is reported at
  http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/issues/detail?id=160

For certain device sizes the number of hashes at a specific level was
calculated incorrectly.

It happens for example for a device with data and metadata block size 4096
that has 16385 blocks and algorithm sha256.

The user can test if he is affected by this bug by running the
"veritysetup verify" command and also by activating the dm-verity kernel
driver and reading the whole block device. If it passes without an error,
then the user is not affected.

The condition for the bug is:

Split the total number of data blocks (data_block_bits) into bit strings,
each string has hash_per_block_bits bits. hash_per_block_bits is
rounddown(log2(metadata_block_size/hash_digest_size)). Equivalently, you
can say that you convert data_blocks_bits to 2^hash_per_block_bits base.

If there some zero bit string below the most significant bit string and at
least one bit below this zero bit string is set, then the bug happens.

The same bug exists in the userspace veritysetup tool, so you must use
fixed veritysetup too if you want to use devices that are affected by
this boundary condition.

    md/raid10: Allow skipping recovery when clean arrays are assembled

Causes raid10 to skip a recovery in certain cases where it is safe to
do so.  Unfortunately it also causes a reshape to be skipped which is
never safe.  The result is that an attempt to reshape a RAID10 will
appear to complete instantly, but no data will have been moves so the
array will now contain garbage.
(If nothing is written, you can recovery by simple performing the
reverse reshape which will also complete instantly).

There is a bug in 'check_reshape' for raid5.c  To checks
that the new minimum number of devices is large enough (which is
good), but it does so also after the reshape has started (bad).

This is bad because
 - the calculation is now wrong as mddev->raid_disks has changed
   already, and
 - it is pointless because it is now too late to stop.

So only perform that test when reshape has not been committed to.

1/ If a RAID10 is being reshaped to a fewer number of devices
 and is stopped while this is ongoing, then when the array is

 This will lead to an access error or memory corruption.

2/ A sanity test for a reshaping RAID10 array is restarted
 is slightly incorrect.

already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you
