      md: clean up do_md_stop · 6e17b027
      NeilBrown 提交于
      There is only one error exit from do_md_stop, so make that more
      explicit and discard the 'err' variable.
      Also drop the 'revalidate' variable by moving the unlock calls around.

      md: fix another deadlock with removing sysfs attributes. · bb4f1e9d
      NeilBrown 提交于
      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

      block: push down BKL into .open and .release · 6e9624b8
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      The open and release block_device_operations are currently
      called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must
      first make sure that all drivers that currently rely
      on this have no regressions.
      
      This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release
      operations for all block drivers to prepare for the
      next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL
      with their own locks or remove it completely when it can
      be shown that it is not needed.
      
      The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only
      remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block
      layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none
      of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}.
      
      Most of these two functions is also under the protection
      of bdev->bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
      ->open and ->release, and the common code does not
      access any global data structures that need the BKL.

      block: unify flags for struct bio and struct request · 7b6d91da
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too.
      This allows to more easily trace the type of I/O from the filesystem
      down to the block driver.  There were two flags in the bio that were
      missing in the requests:  BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD.  Also I've
      renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them.
      
      Note that the flags are in bio.h despite having the REQ_ name - as
      blkdev.h includes bio.h that is the only way to go for now.

      md: Don't update ->recovery_offset when reshaping an array to fewer devices. · 70fffd0b
      NeilBrown 提交于
      When an array is reshaped to have fewer devices, the reshape proceeds
      from the end of the devices to the beginning.
      
      If a device happens to be non-In_sync (which is possible but rare)
      we would normally update the ->recovery_offset as the reshape
      progresses. However that would be wrong as the recover_offset records
      that the early part of the device is in_sync, while in fact it would
      only be the later part that is in_sync, and in any case the offset
      number would be measured from the wrong end of the device.
      
      Relatedly, if after a reshape a spare is discovered to not be
      recoverred all the way to the end, not allow spare_active
      to incorporate it in the array.
      
      This becomes relevant in the following sample scenario:
      
      A 4 drive RAID5 is converted to a 6 drive RAID6 in a combined
      operation.
      The RAID5->RAID6 conversion will cause a 5 drive to be included as a
      spare, then the 5drive -> 6drive reshape will effectively rebuild that
      spare as it progresses.  The 6th drive is treated as in_sync the whole
      time as there is never any case that we might consider reading from
      it, but must not because there is no valid data.
      
      If we interrupt this reshape part-way through and reverse it to return
      to a 5-drive RAID6 (or event a 4-drive RAID5), we don't want to update
      the recovery_offset - as that would be wrong - and we don't want to
      include that spare as active in the 5-drive RAID6 when the reversed
      reshape completed and it will be mostly out-of-sync still.

      md: fix handling of array level takeover that re-arranges devices. · e93f68a1
      NeilBrown 提交于
      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.

      Restore partition detection of newly created md arrays. · f3b99be1
      NeilBrown 提交于
      Commit  b821eaa5 broke partition
      detection for md arrays.
      
      The logic was almost right.  However if revalidate_disk is called
      when the device is not yet open, bdev->bd_disk won't be set, so the
      flush_disk() Call will not set bd_invalidated.
      
      So when md_open is called we still need to ensure that
      ->bd_invalidated gets set.  This is easily done with a call to
      check_disk_size_change in the place where the offending commit removed
      check_disk_change.  At the important times, the size will have changed
      from 0 to non-zero, so check_disk_size_change will set bd_invalidated.

      sysfs: Implement sysfs tagged directory support. · 3ff195b0
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      The problem.  When implementing a network namespace I need to be able
      to have multiple network devices with the same name.  Currently this
      is a problem for /sys/class/net/*, /sys/devices/virtual/net/*, and
      potentially a few other directories of the form /sys/ ... /net/*.
      
      What this patch does is to add an additional tag field to the
      sysfs dirent structure.  For directories that should show different
      contents depending on the context such as /sys/class/net/, and
      /sys/devices/virtual/net/ this tag field is used to specify the
      context in which those directories should be visible.  Effectively
      this is the same as creating multiple distinct directories with
      the same name but internally to sysfs the result is nicer.
      
      I am calling the concept of a single directory that looks like multiple
      directories all at the same path in the filesystem tagged directories.
      
      For the networking namespace the set of directories whose contents I need
      to filter with tags can depend on the presence or absence of hotplug
      hardware or which modules are currently loaded.  Which means I need
      a simple race free way to setup those directories as tagged.
      
      To achieve a reace free design all tagged directories are created
      and managed by sysfs itself.
      
      Users of this interface:
      - define a type in the sysfs_tag_type enumeration.
      - call sysfs_register_ns_types with the type and it's operations
      - sysfs_exit_ns when an individual tag is no longer valid
      
      - Implement mount_ns() which returns the ns of the calling process
        so we can attach it to a sysfs superblock.
      - Implement ktype.namespace() which returns the ns of a syfs kobject.
      
      Everything else is left up to sysfs and the driver layer.
      
      For the network namespace mount_ns and namespace() are essentially
      one line functions, and look to remain that.
      
      Tags are currently represented a const void * pointers as that is
      both generic, prevides enough information for equality comparisons,
      and is trivial to create for current users, as it is just the
      existing namespace pointer.
      
      The work needed in sysfs is more extensive.  At each directory
      or symlink creating I need to check if the directory it is being
      created in is a tagged directory and if so generate the appropriate
      tag to place on the sysfs_dirent.  Likewise at each symlink or
      directory removal I need to check if the sysfs directory it is
      being removed from is a tagged directory and if so figure out
      which tag goes along with the name I am deleting.
      
      Currently only directories which hold kobjects, and
      symlinks are supported.  There is not enough information
      in the current file attribute interfaces to give us anything
      to discriminate on which makes it useless, and there are
      no potential users which makes it an uninteresting problem
      to solve.
