Move the deletion of sysfs attributes from reconfig_mutex to open_mutex didn't really help as a process can try to take open_mutex while holding reconfig_mutex, so the same deadlock can happen, just requiring one more process to be involved in the chain. I looks like I cannot easily use locking to wait for the sysfs deletion to complete, so don't. The only things that we cannot do while the deletions are still pending is other things which can change the sysfs namespace: run, takeover, stop. Each of these can fail with -EBUSY. So set a flag while doing a sysfs deletion, and fail run, takeover, stop if that flag is set. This is suitable for 2.6.35.x Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

This allows md/raid5 to fully work as a dm target. Normally md uses a 'filemap' which contains a list of pages of bits each of which may be written separately. dm-log uses and all-or-nothing approach to writing the log, so when using a dm-log, ->filemap is NULL and the flags normally stored in filemap_attr are stored in ->logattrs instead.

1/ use md_unplug in bitmap.c as we will soon be using bitmaps under arrays with no queue attached. 2/ Don't bother plugging the queue when we set a bit in the bitmap. The reason for this was to encourage as many bits as possible to get set before we unplug and write stuff out. However every personality already plugs the queue after bitmap_startwrite either directly (raid1/raid10) or be setting STRIPE_BIT_DELAY which causes the queue to be plugged later (raid5).

Most array level changes leave the list of devices largely unchanged, possibly causing one at the end to become redundant. However conversions between RAID0 and RAID10 need to renumber all devices (except 0). This renumbering is currently being done in the ->run method when the new personality takes over. However this is too late as the common code in md.c might already have invalidated some of the devices if they had a ->raid_disk number that appeared to high. Moving it into the ->takeover method is too early as the array is still active at that time and wrong ->raid_disk numbers could cause confusion. So add a ->new_raid_disk field to mdk_rdev_s and use it to communicate the new raid_disk number. Now the common code knows exactly which devices need to be renumbered, and which can be invalidated, and can do it all at a convenient time when the array is suspend. It can also update some symlinks in sysfs which previously were not be updated correctly. Reported-by: NMaciej Trela <maciej.trela@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

When updating the event count for a simple clean <-> dirty transition, we try to avoid updating the spares so they can safely spin-down. As the event_counts across an array must be +/- 1, this means decrementing the event_count on a dirty->clean transition. This is not always safe and we have to avoid the unsafe time. We current do this with a misguided idea about it being safe or not depending on whether the event_count is odd or even. This approach only works reliably in a few common instances, but easily falls down. So instead, simply keep internal state concerning whether it is safe or not, and always assume it is not safe when an array is first assembled. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

We used to pass the personality make_request function direct to the block layer so the first argument had to be a queue.

Some levels expect the 'redundancy group' to be present, others don't. So when we change level of an array we might need to add or remove this group. This requires fixing up the current practice of overloading ->private to indicate (when ->pers == NULL) that something needs to be removed. So create a new ->to_remove to fill that role. When changing levels, we may need to add or remove attributes. When changing RAID5 -> RAID6, we both add and remove the same thing. It is important to catch this and optimise it out as the removal is delayed until a lock is released, so trying to add immediately would cause problems.

We've noticed severe lasting performance degradation of our raid arrays when we have drives that yield large amounts of media errors. The raid10 module will queue each failed read for retry, and also will attempt call fix_read_error() to perform the read recovery. Read recovery is performed while the array is frozen, so repeated recovery attempts can degrade the performance of the array for extended periods of time. With this patch I propose adding a per md device max number of corrected read attempts. Each rdev will maintain a count of read correction attempts in the rdev->read_errors field (not used currently for raid10). When we enter fix_read_error() we'll check to see when the last read error occurred, and divide the read error count by 2 for every hour since the last read error. If at that point our read error count exceeds the read error threshold, we'll fail the raid device. In addition in this patch I add sysfs nodes (get/set) for the per md max_read_errors attribute, the rdev->read_errors attribute, and added some printk's to indicate when fix_read_error fails to repair an rdev. For testing I used debugfs->fail_make_request to inject IO errors to the rdev while doing IO to the raid array.

In this case, the metadata needs to not be in the same sector as the bitmap. md will not read/write any bitmap metadata. Config must be done via sysfs and when a recovery makes the array non-degraded again, writing 'true' to 'bitmap/can_clear' will allow bits in the bitmap to be cleared again.

A new attribute directory 'bitmap' in 'md' is created which contains files for configuring the bitmap. 'location' identifies where the bitmap is, either 'none', or 'file' or 'sector offset from metadata'. Writing 'location' can create or remove a bitmap. Adding a 'file' bitmap this way is not yet supported. 'chunksize' and 'time_base' must be set before 'location' can be set. 'chunksize' can be set before creating a bitmap, but is currently always over-ridden by the bitmap superblock. 'time_base' and 'backlog' can be updated at any time.

For md arrays were metadata is managed externally, the kernel does not know about a superblock so the superblock offset is 0. If we want to have a write-intent-bitmap near the end of the devices of such an array, we should support sector_t sized offset. We need offset be possibly negative for when the bitmap is before the metadata, so use loff_t instead. Also add sanity check that bitmap does not overlap with data.

Previously barriers were only supported on RAID1. This is because other levels requires synchronisation across all devices and so needed a different approach. Here is that approach. When a barrier arrives, we send a zero-length barrier to every active device. When that completes - and if the original request was not empty - we submit the barrier request itself (with the barrier flag cleared) and then submit a fresh load of zero length barriers. The barrier request itself is asynchronous, but any subsequent request will block until the barrier completes. The reason for clearing the barrier flag is that a barrier request is allowed to fail. If we pass a non-empty barrier through a striping raid level it is conceivable that part of it could succeed and part could fail. That would be way too hard to deal with. So if the first run of zero length barriers succeed, we assume all is sufficiently well that we send the request and ignore errors in the second run of barriers. RAID5 needs extra care as write requests may not have been submitted to the underlying devices yet. So we flush the stripe cache before proceeding with the barrier. Note that the second set of zero-length barriers are submitted immediately after the original request is submitted. Thus when a personality finds mddev->barrier to be set during make_request, it should not return from make_request until the corresponding per-device request(s) have been queued. That will be done in later patches. Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Reviewed-by: NAndre Noll <maan@systemlinux.org>

A write intent bitmap can be removed from an array while the array is active. When this happens, all IO is suspended and flushed before the bitmap is removed. However it is possible that bitmap_daemon_work is still running to clear old bits from the bitmap. If it is, it can dereference the bitmap after it has been freed. So introduce a new mutex to protect bitmap_daemon_work and get it before destroying a bitmap. This is suitable for any current -stable kernel.

A recent commit: commit 449aad3e introduced the possibility of an A-B/B-A deadlock between bd_mutex and reconfig_mutex. __blkdev_get holds bd_mutex while calling md_open which takes reconfig_mutex, do_md_run is always called with reconfig_mutex held, and it now takes bd_mutex in the call the revalidate_disk. This potential deadlock was not caught by lockdep due to the use of mutex_lock_interruptible_nexted which was introduced by commit d63a5a74 do avoid a warning of an impossible deadlock. It is quite possible to split reconfig_mutex in to two locks. One protects the array data structures while it is being reconfigured, the other ensures that an array is never even partially open while it is being deactivated. In particular, the second lock prevents an open from completing between the time when do_md_stop checks if there are any active opens, and the time when the array is either set read-only, or when ->pers is set to NULL. So we can be certain that no IO is in flight as the array is being destroyed. So create a new lock, open_mutex, just to ensure exclusion between 'open' and 'stop'. This avoids the deadlock and also avoids the lockdep warning mentioned in commit d63a5a74Reported-by: N"Mike Snitzer" <snitzer@gmail.com> Reported-by: N"H.

This patch replaces md_integrity_check() by two new public functions: md_integrity_register() and md_integrity_add_rdev() which are both personality-independent. md_integrity_register() is called from the ->run and ->hot_remove methods of all personalities that support data integrity. The function iterates over the component devices of the array and determines if all active devices are integrity capable and if their profiles match. If this is the case, the common profile is registered for the mddev via blk_integrity_register(). The second new function, md_integrity_add_rdev() is called from the ->hot_add_disk methods, i.e. whenever a new device is being added to a raid array. If the new device does not support data integrity, or has a profile different from the one already registered, data integrity for the mddev is disabled. For raid0 and linear, only the call to md_integrity_register() from the ->run method is necessary. Signed-off-by: NAndre Noll <maan@systemlinux.org> Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

If the superblock of a component device indicates the presence of a bitmap but the corresponding raid personality does not support bitmaps (raid0, linear, multipath, faulty), then something is seriously wrong and we'd better refuse to run such an array. Currently, this check is performed while the superblocks are examined, i.e. before entering personality code. Therefore the generic md layer must know which raid levels support bitmaps and which do not. This patch avoids this layer violation without adding identical code to various personalities. This is accomplished by introducing a new public function to md.c, md_check_no_bitmap(), which replaces the hard-coded checks in the superblock loading functions. A call to md_check_no_bitmap() is added to the ->run method of each personality which does not support bitmaps and assembly is aborted if at least one component device contains a bitmap.

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.
