2012-11-27md/raid1{,0}: fix deadlock in bitmap_unplug.NeilBrown
If the raid1 or raid10 unplug function gets called from a make_request function (which is very possible) when there are bios on the current->bio_list list, then it will not be able to successfully call bitmap_unplug() and it could need to submit more bios and wait for them to complete. But they won't complete while current->bio_list is non-empty. So detect that case and handle the unplugging off to another thread just like we already do when called from within the scheduler. RAID1 version of bug was introduced in 3.6, so that part of fix is suitable for 3.6.y. RAID10 part won't apply.

Request based dm attempts to re-run the request queue off the request completion path.

2012-11-22md/raid10: decrement correct pending counter when writing to replacement.NeilBrown
When a write to a replacement device completes, we carefully and correctly found the rdev that the write actually went to and the blithely called rdev_dec_pending on the primary rdev, even if this write was to the replacement. This means that any writes to an array while a replacement was ongoing would cause the nr_pending count for the primary device to go negative, so it could never be removed. This bug has been present since replacement was introduced in 3.3, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel since then.

2012-11-22md/raid10: close race that lose writes lost when replacement completes.NeilBrown
When a replacement operation completes there is a small window when the original device is marked 'faulty' and the replacement still looks like a replacement. The faulty should be removed and the replacement moved in place very quickly, bit it isn't instant. So the code write out to the array must handle the possibility that the only working device for some slot in the replacement - but it doesn't. If the primary device is faulty it just gives up. This can lead to corruption. So make the code more robust: if either the primary or the replacement is present and working, write to them. Only when neither are present do we give up. This bug has been present since replacement was introduced in 3.3, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel since then.

2012-11-21md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished.NeilBrown
commit 9e44476851e91c86c98eb92b9bc27fb801f89072 MD: raid5 avoid unnecessary zero page for trim change raid5 to clear R5_Discard when the complete request is handled rather than when submitting the per-device discard request. However it did not clear R5_Discard for the parity device. This means that if the stripe_head was reused before it expired from the cache, the setting would be wrong and a hang would result. Also if the R5_Uptodate bit happens to be set, R5_Discard again won't be cleared. But R5_Uptodate really should be clear at this point. So make sure R5_Discard is cleared in all cases, and clear R5_Uptodate when a 'discard' completes. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Commit 2863b9eb didn't take into account the changes to add TRIM support to RAID10 (commit 532a2a3fb). That is, when using dm-raid.c to create the RAID10 arrays, there is no mddev->gendisk or mddev->queue. The code added to support TRIM simply assumes that mddev->queue is available without checking.

2012-10-31md/raid1: Fix assembling of arrays containing Replacements.NeilBrown
setup_conf in raid1.c uses conf->raid_disks before assigning a value. It is used when including 'Replacement' devices. The consequence is that assembling an array which contains a replacement will misbehave and either not include the replacement, or not include the device being replaced. Though this doesn't lead directly to data corruption, it could lead to reduced data safety. So use mddev->raid_disks, which is initialised, instead.

2012-10-12dm: store dm_target_io in bio front_padMikulas Patocka
Use the recently-added bio front_pad field to allocate struct dm_target_io. Prior to this patch, dm_target_io was allocated from a mempool. For each dm_target_io, there is exactly one bio allocated from a bioset. This patch merges these two allocations into one allocation: we create a bioset with front_pad equal to the size of dm_target_io so that every bio allocated from the bioset has sizeof(struct dm_target_io) bytes before it. We allocate a bio and use the bytes before the bio as dm_target_io. _tio_cache is removed and the tio_pool mempool is now only used for request-based devices.

2012-10-11md: refine reporting of resync/reshape delays.NeilBrown
If 'resync_max' is set to 0 (as is often done when starting a reshape, so the mdadm can remain in control during a sensitive period), and if the reshape request is initially delayed because another array using the same array is resyncing or reshaping etc, when user-space cannot easily tell when the delay changes from being due to a conflicting reshape, to being due to resync_max = 0. So introduce a new state: (curr_resync == 3) to reflect this, make sure it is visible both via /proc/mdstat and via the "sync_completed" sysfs attribute, and ensure that the event transition from one delay state to the other is properly notified.

2012-10-11md/raid5: be careful not to resize_stripes too big.NeilBrown

2012-10-11md: writing to sync_action should clear the read-auto state.NeilBrown
In some cases array are started in 'read-auto' state where in nothing gets written to any device until the array is written to. The purpose of this is to make accidental auto-assembly of the wrong arrays less of a risk, and to allow arrays to be started to read suspend-to-disk images without actually changing anything (as might happen if the array were dirty and a resync seemed necessary). Explicitly writing the 'sync_action' for a read-auto array currently doesn't clear the read-auto state, so the sync action doesn't happen, which can be confusing. So allow any successful write to sync_action to clear any read-auto state. Reported-by: Alexander Kühn <alexander.kuehn@nagilum.de> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2012-10-11MD: raid5 avoid unnecessary zero page for trimShaohua Li
We want to avoid zero discarded dev page, because it's useless for discard. But if we don't zero it, another read/write hit such page in the cache and will get inconsistent data. To avoid zero the page, we don't set R5_UPTODATE flag after construction is done. In this way, discard write request is still issued and finished, but read will not hit the page. If the stripe gets accessed soon, we need reread the stripe, but since the chance is low, the reread isn't a big deal.

2012-10-11MD: raid5 trim supportShaohua Li
Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

2012-10-11DM RAID: Fix for "sync" directive ineffectivenessJonathan Brassow
There are two table arguments that can be given to a DM RAID target that control whether the array is forced to (re)synchronize or skip initialization: "sync" and "nosync". When "sync" is given, we set mddev->recovery_cp to 0 in order to cause the device to resynchronize. This is insufficient if there is a bitmap in use, because the array will simply look at the bitmap and see that there is no recovery necessary. The fix is to skip over the loading of the superblocks when "sync" is given, causing new superblocks to be written that will force the array to go through initialization (i.e. synchronization).

Some ioctls don't need to take the mutex and doing so can cause a delay as it is held during super-block update. So move those ioctls out of the mutex and rely on rcu locking to ensure we don't access stale data. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2012-10-11MD: change the parameter of md threadShaohua Li
Change the thread parameter, so the thread can carry extra info. Next patch will use it. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2012-10-11md/raid10: submit IO from originating thread instead of md thread.NeilBrown
queuing writes to the md thread means that all requests go through the one processor which may not be able to keep up with very high request rates. So use the plugging infrastructure to submit all requests on unplug. If a 'schedule' is needed, we fall back on the old approach of handing the requests to the thread for it to handle. This is nearly identical to a recent patch which provided similar functionality to RAID1. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2012-10-11md: raid 10 supports TRIMShaohua Li
This makes md raid 10 support TRIM. If one disk supports discard and another not, or one has discard_zero_data and another not, there could be inconsistent between data from such disks. But this should not matter, discarded data is useless. This will add extra copy in rebuild though. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
