NeilBrown 2230dfe4cc md: beginnings of bad block management.
This the first step in allowing md to track bad-blocks per-device so
that we can fail individual blocks rather than the whole device.

This patch just adds a data structure for recording bad blocks, with
routines to add, remove, search the list.

NeilBrown a519b26dbe md: remove suspicious size_of()
When calling bioset_create we pass the size of the front_pad as
   sizeof(mddev)
which looks suspicious as mddev is a pointer and so it looks like a
common mistake where
   sizeof(*mddev)
was intended.
The size is actually correct as we want to store a pointer in the
front padding of the bios created by the bioset, so make the intent
more explicit by using
   sizeof(mddev_t *)

NeilBrown 8cfa7b0f67 md/raid5: Avoid BUG caused by multiple failures.
While preparing to write a stripe we keep the parity block or blocks
locked (R5_LOCKED) - towards the end of schedule_reconstruction.

If the array is discovered to have failed before this write completes
we can leave those blocks LOCKED, and init_stripe will notice that a
free stripe still has a locked block and will complain.

So clear the R5_LOCKED flag in handle_failed_stripe, and demote the
'BUG' to a 'WARN_ON'.

NeilBrown 700c721389 md/raid10: Improve decision on whether to fail a device with a read error.
Normally we would fail a device with a READ error.  However if doing
so causes the array to fail, it is better to leave the device
in place and just return the read error to the caller.

The current test for decide if the array will fail is overly
simplistic.
We have a function 'enough' which can tell if the array is failed or
not, so use it to guide the decision.

NeilBrown 2bb77736ae md/raid10: Make use of new recovery_disabled handling
When we get a read error during recovery, RAID10 previously
arranged for the recovering device to appear to fail so that
the recovery stops and doesn't restart.  This is misleading and wrong.

Instead, make use of the new recovery_disabled handling and mark
the target device and having recovery disabled.

are removed and not re-added when recovery is disabled.

NeilBrown 5389042ffa md: change managed of recovery_disabled.
If we hit a read error while recovering a mirror, we want to abort the
recovery without necessarily failing the disk - as having a disk this
a read error is better than not having an array at all.

Currently this is managed with a per-array flag "recovery_disabled"
and is only implemented for RAID1.  For RAID10 we will need finer
grained control as we might want to disable recovery for individual
devices separately.

So push more of the decision making into the personality.
'recovery_disabled' is now a 'cookie' which is copied when the
personality want to disable recovery and is changed when a device is
added to the array as this is used as a trigger to 'try recovery
again'.

This will allow RAID10 to get the control that it needs.

For RAID6 if we are writing at all and there is a failed device, then

This case isn't needed for RAID5 - we will do a read-modify-write in
that case.
So make that test a separate test in fetch_block6 rather than merged

Make a similar change in fetch_block5 so the one bit that is not

NeilBrown c4c1663be4 md/raid5: replace sh->lock with an 'active' flag.
sh->lock is now mainly used to ensure that two threads aren't running
in the locked part of handle_stripe[56] at the same time.

That can more neatly be achieved with an 'active' flag which we set
while running handle_stripe.  If we find the flag is set, we simply
requeue the stripe for later by setting STRIPE_HANDLE.

For safety we take ->device_lock while examining the state of the
stripe and creating a summary in 'stripe_head_state / r6_state'.
This possibly isn't needed but as shared fields like ->toread,
->towrite are checked it is safer for now at least.

We leave the label after the old 'unlock' called "unlock" because it
will disappear in a few patches, so renaming seems pointless.

This leaves the stripe 'locked' for longer as we clear STRIPE_ACTIVE
later, but that is not a problem.

NeilBrown 4274215d24 md: avoid endless recovery loop when waiting for fail device to complete.
If a device fails in a way that causes pending request to take a while
to complete, md will not be able to immediately remove it from the
array in remove_and_add_spares.
It will then incorrectly look like a spare device and md will try to
recover it even though it is failed.
This leads to a recovery process starting and instantly aborting over
and over again.

We should check if the device is faulty before considering it to be a
spare.  This will avoid trying to start a recovery that cannot
proceed.

Namhyung Kim 9b2dc8b665 md/raid5: fix raid5_set_bi_hw_segments
The @bio->bi_phys_segments consists of active stripes count in the
lower 16 bits and processed stripes count in the upper 16 bits. So
logical-OR operator should be bitwise one.

This bug has been present since 2.6.27 and the fix is suitable for any
-stable kernel since then.  Fortunately the bad code is only used on
error paths and is relatively unlikely to be hit.

Jonathan Brassow d6b212f4b1 MD: raid5 do not set fullsync
Add check to determine if a device needs full resync or if partial resync will do

RAID 5 was assuming that if a device was not In_sync, it must undergo a full
resync.  We add a check to see if 'saved_raid_disk' is the same as 'raid_disk'.
If it is, we can safely skip the full resync and rely on the bitmap for
partial recovery instead.  This is the legitimate purpose of 'saved_raid_disk',
from md.h:
int saved_raid_disk;            /* role that device used to have in the

If device-mapper (dm-raid.c) is to define its own on-disk superblock and be

Moving the wakeup's of the personality and sync/recovery threads out of

1) It allows bitmap_load to be called before the sync_thread is run and
2) when MD personalities are used by device-mapper (dm-raid.c), the start-up
of the array is better alligned with device-mapper primatives
(CTR/resume/suspend/DTR).  I/O - in this case, recovery operations - should
not happen until after a resume has taken place.

Remove the spinlock protecting the pages allocation.  The spinlock is only

The spinlock is taken in kcopyd_get_pages and kcopyd_put_pages.

kcopyd_get_pages is only called from run_pages_job, which is only
called from process_jobs called from do_work.

kcopyd_put_pages is called from client_alloc_pages (which is initialization
function) or from run_complete_job. run_complete_job is only called from
process_jobs called from do_work.

Another spinlock, kc->job_lock is taken each time someone pushes or pops
some work for the worker thread.  Once we take kc->job_lock, we
guarantee that any written memory is visible to the other CPUs.

Mikulas Patocka c6ea41fbbe dm kcopyd: preallocate sub jobs to avoid deadlock
There's a possible theoretical deadlock in dm-kcopyd because multiple
allocations from the same mempool are required to finish a request.
Avoid this by preallocating sub jobs.

There is a mempool of 512 entries. Each request requires up to 9
entries from the mempool. If we have at least 57 concurrent requests
running, the mempool may overflow and mempool allocations may start
blocking until another entry is freed to the mempool. Because the same
thread is used to free entries to the mempool and allocate entries from
the mempool, this may result in a deadlock.

This patch changes it so that one mempool entry contains all 9 "struct
kcopyd_job" required to fulfill the whole request. The allocation is
done only once in dm_kcopyd_copy and no further mempool allocations are
done during request processing.

If dm_kcopyd_copy is not run in the completion thread, this
implementation is deadlock-free.

MIN_JOBS needs reducing accordingly and we've chosen to reduce it
further to 8.

Milan Broz f4808ca99a dm table: reject devices without request fns
This patch adds a check that a block device has a request function
defined before it is used.  Otherwise, misconfiguration can cause an oops.

Because we are allowing devices with zero size e.g. an offline multipath
device as in commit 2cd54d9bed
("dm: allow offline devices") there needs to be an additional check
to ensure devices are initialised.  Some block devices, like a loop
device without a backing file, exist but have no request function.

Reproducer is trivial: dm-mirror on unbound loop device
(no backing file on loop devices)

dmsetup create x --table "0 8 mirror core 2 8 sync 2 /dev/loop0 0 /dev/loop1 0"

and mirror resync will immediatelly cause OOps.

NeilBrown b098636cf0 md: allow resync_start to be set while an array is active.
The sysfs attribute 'resync_start' (known internally as recovery_cp),
records where a resync is up to.  A value of 0 means the array is
not known to be in-sync at all.  A value of MaxSector means the array
is believed to be fully in-sync.

When the size of member devices of an array (RAID1,RAID4/5/6) is
increased, the array can be increased to match.  This process sets
resync_start to the old end-of-device offset so that the new part of
the array gets resynced.

However with RAID1 (and RAID6) a resync is not technically necessary
and may be undesirable.  So it would be good if the implied resync
after the array is resized could be avoided.

So: change 'resync_start' so the value can be changed while the array
is active, and as a precaution only allow it to be changed while
resync/recovery is 'frozen'.  Changing it once resync has started is
not going to be useful anyway.

This allows the array to be resized without a resync by:
  write 'frozen' to 'sync_action'
  write new size to 'component_size' (this will set resync_start)
  write 'none' to 'resync_start'
  write 'idle' to 'sync_action'.

Also slightly improve some tests on recovery_cp when resizing
raid1/raid5.  Now that an arbitrary value could be set we should be
more careful in our tests.

Currently the rdev on which a read error happened could be removed
before we perform the fix_error handling.  This requires extra tests
for NULL.

So delay the rdev_dec_pending call until after the call to
fix_read_error so that we can be sure that the rdev still exists.

This allows an 'if' clause to be removed so the body gets re-indented

NeilBrown af6d7b760c md/raid1: improve handling of pages allocated for write-behind.
The current handling and freeing of these pages is a bit fragile.
We only keep the list of allocated pages in each bio, so we need to
still have a valid bio when freeing the pages, which is a bit clumsy.

So simply store the allocated page list in the r1_bio so it can easily
be found and freed when we are finished with the r1_bio.

NeilBrown 7ca78d57d1 md/raid1: try fix_sync_read_error before process_checks.
If we get a read error during resync/recovery we current repeat with
single-page reads to find out just where the error is, and possibly
read each page from a different device.

With check/repair we don't currently do that, we just fail.
However it is possible that while all devices fail on the large 64K
read, we might be able to satisfy each 4K from one device or another.

So call fix_sync_read_error before process_checks to maximise the
chance of finding good data and writing it out to the devices with
read errors.

For this to work, we need to set the 'uptodate' flags properly after
fix_sync_read_error has succeeded.

NeilBrown 8258c53208 md/bitmap: fix saving of events_cleared and other state.
If a bitmap is found to be 'stale' the events_cleared value
is set to match 'events'.
However if the array is degraded this does not get stored on disk.
This can subsequently lead to incorrect behaviour.

So change bitmap_update_sb to always update events_cleared in the
superblock from the known events_cleared.
For neatness also set ->state from ->flags.
This requires updating ->state whenever we update ->flags, which makes
sense anyway.

This is suitable for any active -stable release.

NeilBrown b0140891a8 md: Fix race when creating a new md device.
There is a race when creating an md device by opening /dev/mdXX.

If two processes do this at much the same time they will follow the
call path
  __blkdev_get -> get_gendisk -> kobj_lookup

The first will call
  -> md_probe -> md_alloc -> add_disk -> blk_register_region

and the race happens when the second gets to kobj_lookup after
add_disk has called blk_register_region but before it returns to
md_alloc.

In the case the second will not call md_probe (as the probe is already
done) but will get a handle on the gendisk, return to __blkdev_get
which will then call md_open (via the ->open) pointer.

As mddev->gendisk hasn't been set yet, md_open will think something is
wrong an return with ERESTARTSYS.

This can loop endlessly while the first thread makes no progress
through add_disk.  Nothing is blocking it, but due to scheduler
behaviour it doesn't get a turn.
So this is essentially a live-lock.

We fix this by simply moving the assignment to mddev->gendisk before
the call the add_disk() so md_open doesn't get confused.
Also move blk_queue_flush earlier because add_disk should be as late
as possible.

To make sure that md_open doesn't complete until md_alloc has done all
that is needed, we take mddev->open_mutex during the last part of
md_alloc.  md_open will wait for this.

This can cause a lock-up on boot so Cc:ing for stable.
For 2.6.36 and earlier a different patch will be needed as the
'blk_queue_flush' call isn't there.

Mike Snitzer a63a5cf84d dm: improve block integrity support
The current block integrity (DIF/DIX) support in DM is verifying that
all devices' integrity profiles match during DM device resume (which
is past the point of no return).  To some degree that is unavoidable
(stacked DM devices force this late checking).  But for most DM
devices (which aren't stacking on other DM devices) the ideal time to
verify all integrity profiles match is during table load.

Introduce the notion of an "initialized" integrity profile: a profile
that was blk_integrity_register()'d with a non-NULL 'blk_integrity'
template.  Add blk_integrity_is_initialized() to allow checking if a
profile was initialized.

Update DM integrity support to:
- check all devices with _initialized_ integrity profiles match
  during table load; uninitialized profiles (e.g. for underlying DM
  device(s) of a stacked DM device) are ignored.
- disallow a table load that would result in an integrity profile that
  conflicts with a DM device's existing (in-use) integrity profile
- avoid clearing an existing integrity profile
- validate all integrity profiles match during resume; but if they
  don't all we can do is report the mismatch (during resume we're past
  the point of no return)

Mustafa Mesanovic 2991520200 dm stripe: implement merge method
Implement a merge function in the striped target.

When the striped target's underlying devices provide a merge_bvec_fn
(like all DM devices do via dm_merge_bvec) it is important to call down
to them when building a biovec that doesn't span a stripe boundary.

Without the merge method, a striped DM device stacked on DM devices
causes bios with a single page to be submitted which results
in unnecessary overhead that hurts performance.

This change really helps filesystems (e.g. XFS and now ext4) which take
care to assemble larger bios.  By implementing stripe_merge(), DM and the
stripe target no longer undermine the filesystem's work by only allowing
a single page per bio.  Buffered IO sees the biggest improvement
(particularly uncached reads, buffered writes to a lesser degree).  This
is especially so for more capable "enterprise" storage LUNs.

The performance improvement has been measured to be ~12-35% -- when a
reasonable chunk_size is used (e.g. 64K) in conjunction with a stripe
count that is a power of 2.

In contrast, the performance penalty is ~5-7% for the pathological worst
case stripe configuration (small chunk_size with a stripe count that is
not a power of 2).  The reason for this is that stripe_map_sector() is
now called once for every call to dm_merge_bvec().  stripe_map_sector()
will use slower division if stripe count isn't a power of 2.

Mike Snitzer a490a07a67 dm mpath: allow table load with no priority groups
This patch adjusts the multipath target to allow a table with both 0
priority groups and 0 for the initial priority group number.

If any mpath device is held open when all paths in the last priority
group have failed, userspace multipathd will attempt to reload the
associated DM table to reflect the fact that the device no longer has
any priority groups.  But the reload attempt always failed because the
multipath target did not allow 0 priority groups.

All multipath target messages related to priority group (enable_group,
disable_group, switch_group) will handle a priority group of 0 (will
cause error).

When reloading a multipath table with 0 priority groups, userspace
multipathd must be updated to specify an initial priority group number
of 0 (rather than 1).

NeilBrown f0b4f7e2f2 md: Fix - again - partition detection when array becomes active
Revert
    b821eaa572
and
    f3b99be19d

When I wrote the first of these I had a wrong idea about the
lifetime of 'struct block_device'.  It can disappear at any time that
the block device is not open if it falls out of the inode cache.

So relying on the 'size' recorded with it to detect when the
device size has changed and so we need to revalidate, is wrong.

Rather, we really do need the 'changed' attribute stored directly in
the mddev and set/tested as appropriate.

Without this patch, a sequence of:
   mknod / open / close / unlink

(which can cause a block_device to be created and then destroyed)
will result in a rescan of the partition table and consequence removal
and addition of partitions.
Several of these in a row can get udev racing to create and unlink and
other code can get confused.

With the patch, the rescan is only performed when needed and so there
are no races.

This is suitable for any stable kernel from 2.6.35.

NeilBrown da9cf5050a md: avoid spinlock problem in blk_throtl_exit
blk_throtl_exit assumes that ->queue_lock still exists,
so make sure that it does.
To do this, we stop redirecting ->queue_lock to conf->device_lock
and leave it pointing where it is initialised - __queue_lock.

As the blk_plug functions check the ->queue_lock is held, we now
take that spin_lock explicitly around the plug functions.  We don't
need the locking, just the warning removal.

This is needed for any kernel with the blk_throtl code, which is
which is 2.6.37 and later.

NeilBrown 8f5f02c460 md: correctly handle probe of an 'mdp' device.
'mdp' devices are md devices with preallocated device numbers
for partitions. As such it is possible to mknod and open a partition
before opening the whole device.

this causes  md_probe() to be called with a device number of a
partition, which in-turn calls mddev_find with such a number.

However mddev_find expects the number of a 'whole device' and
does the wrong thing with partition numbers.

So add code to mddev_find to remove the 'partition' part of
a device number and just work with the 'whole device'.

NeilBrown cbe6ef1d26 md: don't set_capacity before array is active.
If the desired size of an array is set (via sysfs) before the array is
active (which is the normal sequence), we currrently call set_capacity
immediately.
This means that a subsequent 'open' (as can be caused by some
udev-triggers program) will notice the new size and try to probe for
partitions.  However as the array isn't quite ready yet the read will
fail.  Then when the array is read, as the size doesn't change again
we don't try to re-probe.

So when setting array size via sysfs, only call set_capacity if the
array is already active.

Krzysztof Wojcik 02214dc546 FIX: md: process hangs at wait_barrier after 0->10 takeover
Following symptoms were observed:
1. After raid0->raid10 takeover operation we have array with 2
missing disks.
When we add disk for rebuild, recovery process starts as expected
but it does not finish- it stops at about 90%, md126_resync process
hangs in "D" state.
2. Similar behavior is when we have mounted raid0 array and we
execute takeover to raid10. After this when we try to unmount array-
it causes process umount hangs in "D"

In scenarios above processes hang at the same function- wait_barrier
in raid10.c.
Process waits in macro "wait_event_lock_irq" until the
"!conf->barrier" condition will be true.
In scenarios above it never happens.

Reason was that at the end of level_store, after calling pers->run,
we call mddev_resume. This calls pers->quiesce(mddev, 0) with
RAID10, that calls lower_barrier.
However raise_barrier hadn't been called on that 'conf' yet,
so conf->barrier becomes negative, which is bad.

This patch introduces setting conf->barrier=1 after takeover
operation. It prevents to become barrier negative after call
lower_barrier().

NeilBrown f21e9ff7f7 md: Remove the AllReserved flag for component devices.
This flag is not needed and is used badly.

Devices that are included in a native-metadata array are reserved
exclusively for that array - and currently have AllReserved set.
They all are bd_claimed for the rdev and so cannot be shared.

Devices that are included in external-metadata arrays can be shared
among multiple arrays - providing there is no overlap.
These are bd_claimed for md in general - not for a particular rdev.

When changing the amount of a device that is used in an array we need
to check for overlap.  This currently includes a check on AllReserved
So even without overlap, sharing with an AllReserved device is not
allowed.
However the bd_claim usage already precludes sharing with these
devices, so the test on AllReserved is not needed.  And in fact it is
wrong.

As this is the only use of AllReserved, simply remove all usage and
definition of AllReserved.

Commit e09b457b (block: simplify holder symlink handling) incorrectly
assumed that there is only one link at maximum.  dm may use multiple
links and expects block layer to track reference count for each link,
which is different from and unrelated to the exclusive device holder
identified by @holder when the device is opened.

Remove the single holder assumption and automatic removal of the link
and revive the per-link reference count tracking.  The code
essentially behaves the same as before commit e09b457b sans the
unnecessary kobject reference count dancing.

While at it, note that this facility should not be used by anyone else
than the current ones.  Sysfs symlinks shouldn't be abused like this
and the whole thing doesn't belong in the block layer at all.

These values are internal and should never be exposed to user-space

Unfortunately they are as ->curr_resync is assigned to
->curr_resync_completed and that value is directly visible through

In all internal cases it is, but the symbol is exported for dm-raid to
call and in that case the lock won't be help.
Do make an exported version which takes the lock, and an internal
version which does not.

NeilBrown 0ca69886a8 md: Ensure no IO request to get md device before it is properly initialised.
When an md device is in the process of coming on line it is possible
for an IO request (typically a partition table probe) to get through
before the array is fully initialised, which can cause unexpected
behaviour (e.g. a crash).

So explicitly record when the array is ready for IO and don't allow IO
through until then.

There is no possibility for a similar problem when the array is going
off-line as there must only be one 'open' at that time, and it is busy
off-lining the array and so cannot send IO requests.  So no memory
barrier is needed in md_stop()

This has been a bug since commit 409c57f380 in 2.6.30 which
introduced md_make_request.  Before then, each personality would
register its own make_request_fn when it was ready.
This is suitable for any stable kernel from 2.6.30.y onwards.

NeilBrown 6c98791014 md: fix regression resulting in delays in clearing bits in a bitmap
commit 589a594be1 (2.6.37-rc4) fixed a problem were md_thread would
sometimes call the ->run function at a bad time.

If an error is detected during array start up after the md_thread has
been started, the md_thread is killed.  This resulted in the ->run
function being called once.  However the array may not be in a state
that it is safe to call ->run.

However the fix imposed meant that  ->run was not called on a timeout.
This means that when an array goes idle, bitmap bits do not get
cleared promptly.  While the array is busy the bits will still be
cleared when appropriate so this is not very serious.  There is no
risk to data.

Change the test so that we only avoid calling ->run when the thread
is being stopped.  This more explicitly addresses the problem situation.

This is suitable for 2.6.37-stable and any -stable kernel to which
589a594be1 was applied.

NeilBrown 9d09e663d5 dm: raid456 basic support
This patch is the skeleton for the DM target that will be
the bridge from DM to MD (initially RAID456 and later RAID1).  It
provides a way to use device-mapper interfaces to the MD RAID456
drivers.

As with all device-mapper targets, the nominal public interfaces are the
constructor (CTR) tables and the status outputs (both STATUSTYPE_INFO
and STATUSTYPE_TABLE).  The CTR table looks like the following:

1: <s> <l> raid \
2:	<raid_type> <#raid_params> <raid_params> \
3:	<#raid_devs> <meta_dev1> <dev1> .. <meta_devN> <devN>

Line 1 contains the standard first three arguments to any device-mapper
target - the start, length, and target type fields.  The target type in
this case is "raid".

Line 2 contains the arguments that define the particular raid
type/personality/level, the required arguments for that raid type, and
any optional arguments.  Possible raid types include: raid4, raid5_la,
raid5_ls, raid5_rs, raid6_zr, raid6_nr, and raid6_nc.  (again, raid1 is
planned for the future.)  The list of required and optional parameters
is the same for all the current raid types.  The required parameters are
positional, while the optional parameters are given as key/value pairs.
The possible parameters are as follows:
 <chunk_size>		Chunk size in sectors.
 [[no]sync]		Force/Prevent RAID initialization
 [rebuild <idx>]	Rebuild the drive indicated by the index
 [daemon_sleep <ms>]	Time between bitmap daemon work to clear bits
 [min_recovery_rate <kB/sec/disk>]	Throttle RAID initialization
 [max_recovery_rate <kB/sec/disk>]	Throttle RAID initialization
 [max_write_behind <value>]		See '-write-behind=' (man mdadm)
 [stripe_cache <sectors>]		Stripe cache size for higher RAIDs

Line 3 contains the list of devices that compose the array in
metadata/data device pairs.  If the metadata is stored separately, a '-'
is given for the metadata device position.  If a drive has failed or is
missing at creation time, a '-' can be given for both the metadata and
data drives for a given position.

Examples:
# RAID4 - 4 data drives, 1 parity
# No metadata devices specified to hold superblock/bitmap info
# Chunk size of 1MiB
# (Lines separated for easy reading)
0 1960893648 raid \
	raid4 1 2048 \
	5 - 8:17 - 8:33 - 8:49 - 8:65 - 8:81

# RAID4 - 4 data drives, 1 parity (no metadata devices)
# Chunk size of 1MiB, force RAID initialization,
#	min recovery rate at 20 kiB/sec/disk
0 1960893648 raid \
        raid4 4 2048 min_recovery_rate 20 sync\
        5 - 8:17 - 8:33 - 8:49 - 8:65 - 8:81

Performing a 'dmsetup table' should display the CTR table used to
construct the mapping (with possible reordering of optional
parameters).

Performing a 'dmsetup status' will yield information on the state and
health of the array.  The output is as follows:
1: <s> <l> raid \
2:	<raid_type> <#devices> <1 health char for each dev> <resync_ratio>

Line 1 is standard DM output.  Line 2 is best shown by example:
	0 1960893648 raid raid4 5 AAAAA 2/490221568
Here we can see the RAID type is raid4, there are 5 devices - all of
which are 'A'live, and the array is 2/490221568 complete with recovery.

Chandra Seetharaman 4e2d19e46b dm mpath: delay activate_path retry on SCSI_DH_RETRY
This patch adds a user-configurable 'pg_init_delay_msecs' feature.  Use
this feature to specify the number of milliseconds to delay before
retrying scsi_dh_activate, when SCSI_DH_RETRY is returned.

SCSI Device Handlers return SCSI_DH_IMM_RETRY if we could retry
activation immediately and SCSI_DH_RETRY in cases where it is better to
retry after some delay.

Currently we immediately retry scsi_dh_activate irrespective of
SCSI_DH_IMM_RETRY and SCSI_DH_RETRY.

The 'pg_init_delay_msecs' feature may be provided during table create or
load, e.g.:
    dmsetup create --table "0 20971520 multipath 3 queue_if_no_path \
	pg_init_delay_msecs 2500 ..." mpatha

The default for 'pg_init_delay_msecs' is 2000 milliseconds.
Maximum configurable delay is 60000 milliseconds.  Specifying a
'pg_init_delay_msecs' of 0 will cause immediate retry.

Kiyoshi Ueda 052189a2ec dm: remove superfluous irq disablement in dm_request_fn
This patch changes spin_lock_irq() to spin_lock() in dm_request_fn().
This patch is just a clean-up and no functional change.

The spin_lock_irq() was leftover from the early request-based dm code,
where map_request() used to enable interrupts.
Since current map_request() never enables interrupts, we can change it
to spin_lock() to match the prior spin_unlock().

Auditing through the dm and block-layer code called from
map_request(), I confirmed all functions save/restore interrupt
status, so no function returning with interrupts enabled.
Also I haven't observed any problem on my test environment which
uses scsi and lpfc driver after heavy I/O testing with occasional
path down/up.

Added BUG_ON() to detect breakage in future.

Milan Broz 3474578593 dm crypt: add loop aes iv generator
This patch adds a compatible implementation of the block
chaining mode used by the Loop-AES block device encryption
system (http://loop-aes.sourceforge.net/) designed
by Jari Ruusu.

It operates on full 512 byte sectors and uses CBC
with an IV derived from the sector number, the data and
optionally extra IV seed.

This means that after CBC decryption the first block of sector
must be tweaked according to decrypted data.

Loop-AES can use three encryption schemes:
 version 1: is plain aes-cbc mode (already compatible)
 version 2: uses 64 multikey scheme with own IV generator
 version 3: the same as version 2 with additional IV seed
            (it uses 65 keys, last key is used as IV seed)

The IV generator is here named lmk (Loop-AES multikey)
and for the cipher specification looks like: aes:64-cbc-lmk

Version 2 and 3 is recognised according to length
of provided multi-key string (which is just hexa encoded
"raw key" used in original Loop-AES ioctl).

Configuration of the device and decoding key string will
be done in userspace (cryptsetup).
(Loop-AES stores keys in gpg encrypted file, raw keys are
output of simple hashing of lines in this file).

The tfm is used according to sector offset

Currently dm-crypt does all the encryption work for a single dm-crypt
mapping in a single workqueue. This does not scale well when multiple
CPUs are submitting IO at a high rate. The single CPU running the single
thread cannot keep up with the encryption and encrypted IO performance
tanks.

This patch changes the crypto workqueue to be per CPU. This means
that as long as the IO submitter (or the interrupt target CPUs
for reads) runs on different CPUs the encryption work will be also
parallel.

To avoid a bottleneck on the IO worker I also changed those to be
per-CPU threads.

There is still some shared data, so I suspect some bouncing
cache lines. But I haven't done a detailed study on that yet.

Mikulas Patocka 8d35d3e37e dm kcopyd: delay unplugging
Make kcopyd merge more I/O requests by using device unplugging.

Without this patch, each I/O request is dispatched separately to the device.
If the device supports tagged queuing, there are many small requests sent
to the device. To improve performance, this patch will batch as many requests
as possible, allowing the queue to merge consecutive requests, and send them
to the device at once.

In my tests (15k SCSI disk), this patch improves sequential write throughput:

  Sequential write throughput (chunksize of 4k, 32k, 512k)
  unpatched: 15.2, 18.5, 17.5 MB/s
  patched:   14.4, 22.6, 23.0 MB/s

In most common uses (snapshot or two-way mirror), kcopyd is only used for
two devices, one for reading and the other for writing, thus this optimization
is implemented only for two devices. The optimization may be extended to n-way
mirrors with some code complexity increase.

We keep track of two block devices to unplug (one for read and the
other for write) and unplug them when exiting "do_work" thread.  If
there are more devices used (in theory it could happen, in practice it
is rare), we unplug immediately.

Peter Jones 84c89557a3 dm ioctl: allow rename to fill empty uuid
Allow the uuid of a mapped device to be set after device creation.
Previously the uuid (which is optional) could only be set by
DM_DEV_CREATE.  If no uuid was supplied it could not be set later.

Sometimes it's necessary to create the device before the uuid is known,
and in such cases the uuid must be filled in after the creation.

This patch extends DM_DEV_RENAME to accept a uuid accompanied by
a new flag DM_UUID_FLAG.  This can only be done once and if no
uuid was previously supplied.  It cannot be used to change an
existing uuid.

DM_VERSION_MINOR is also bumped to 19 to indicate this interface
extension is available.

Mikulas Patocka d9bf0b508d dm io: remove BIO_RW_SYNCIO flag from kcopyd
Remove the REQ_SYNC flag to improve write throughput when writing
to the origin with a snapshot on the same device (using the CFQ I/O
scheduler).

Sequential write throughput (chunksize of 4k, 32k, 512k)
  unpatched:  8.5,  8.6,  9.3 MB/s
  patched:   15.2, 18.5, 17.5 MB/s

Snapshot exception reallocations are triggered by writes that are
usually async, so mark the associated dm_io_request as async as well.
This helps when using the CFQ I/O scheduler because it has separate
queues for sync and async I/O.  Async is optimized for throughput; sync
for latency.  With this change we're consciously favoring throughput over
latency.

Mike Snitzer 09c9d4c9b6 dm mpath: disable blk_abort_queue
Revert commit 224cb3e981
  dm: Call blk_abort_queue on failed paths

Multipath began to use blk_abort_queue() to allow for
lower latency path deactivation.  This was found to
cause list corruption:

   the cmd gets blk_abort_queued/timedout run on it and the scsi eh
   somehow is able to complete and run scsi_queue_insert while
   scsi_request_fn is still trying to process the request.

Mike Snitzer c217649bf2 dm: dont take i_mutex to change device size
No longer needlessly hold md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex when changing the
size of a DM device.  This additional locking is unnecessary because
i_size_write() is already protected by the existing critical section in
dm_swap_table().  DM already has a reference on md->bdev so the
associated bd_inode may be changed without lifetime concerns.

A negative side-effect of having held md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex was
that a concurrent DM device resize and flush (via fsync) would deadlock.
Dropping md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex eliminates this potential for
deadlock.  The following reproducer no longer deadlocks:

NeilBrown bf572541ab md: fix regression with re-adding devices to arrays with no metadata
Commit 1a855a0606 (2.6.37-rc4) fixed a problem where devices were
re-added when they shouldn't be but caused a regression in a less
common case that means sometimes devices cannot be re-added when they
should be.

In particular, when re-adding a device to an array without metadata
we should always access the device, but after the above commit we
didn't.

This patch sets the In_sync flag in that case so that the re-add
succeeds.

This patch is suitable for any -stable kernel to which 1a855a0606 was
applied.

Mike Snitzer 72d4cd9f38 block: max hardware sectors limit wrapper
Implement blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() and make
blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() a wrapper around it.

DM needs this to avoid setting queue_limits' max_hw_sectors and
max_sectors directly.  dm_set_device_limits() now leverages
blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() logic to establish the appropriate
max_hw_sectors minimum (PAGE_SIZE).  Fixes issue where DM was
incorrectly setting max_sectors rather than max_hw_sectors (which
caused dm_merge_bvec()'s max_hw_sectors check to be ineffective).

Martin K. Petersen e692cb668f block: Deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use queue_limits instead
When stacking devices, a request_queue is not always available. This
forced us to have a no_cluster flag in the queue_limits that could be
used as a carrier until the request_queue had been set up for a
metadevice.

There were several problems with that approach. First of all it was up
to the stacking device to remember to set queue flag after stacking had
completed. Also, the queue flag and the queue limits had to be kept in
sync at all times. We got that wrong, which could lead to us issuing
commands that went beyond the max scatterlist limit set by the driver.

The proper fix is to avoid having two flags for tracking the same thing.
We deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use the queue limit directly in the
block layer merging functions. The queue_limit 'no_cluster' is turned
into 'cluster' to avoid double negatives and to ease stacking.
Clustering defaults to being enabled as before. The queue flag logic is
removed from the stacking function, and explicitly setting the cluster
flag is no longer necessary in DM and MD.

NeilBrown 589a594be1 md: protect against NULL reference when waiting to start a raid10.
When we fail to start a raid10 for some reason, we call
md_unregister_thread to kill the thread that was created.

Unfortunately md_thread() will then make one call into the handler
(raid10d) even though md_wakeup_thread has not been called.  This is
not safe and as md_unregister_thread is called after mddev->private
has been set to NULL, it will definitely cause a NULL dereference.

So fix this at both ends:
 - md_thread should only call the handler if THREAD_WAKEUP has been
   set.
 - raid10 should call md_unregister_thread before setting things
   to NULL just like all the other raid modules do.

This is applicable to 2.6.35 and later.
