Kent Overstreet 4f024f3797 block: Abstract out bvec iterator
Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

Kent Overstreet f73a1c7d11 block: Add bio_end_sector()
Just a little convenience macro - main reason to add it now is preparing
for immutable bio vecs, it'll reduce the size of the patch that puts
bi_sector/bi_size/bi_idx into a struct bvec_iter.

NeilBrown ba13da47ff md: add proper merge_bvec handling to RAID0 and Linear.
These personalities currently set a max request size of one page
when any member device has a merge_bvec_fn because they don't
bother to call that function.

This causes extra works in splitting and combining requests.

So make the extra effort to call the merge_bvec_fn when it exists
so that we end up with larger requests out the bottom.

NeilBrown dafb20fa34 md: tidy up rdev_for_each usage.
md.h has an 'rdev_for_each()' macro for iterating the rdevs in an
mddev.  However it uses the 'safe' version of list_for_each_entry,
and so requires the extra variable, but doesn't include 'safe' in the
name, which is useful documentation.

Consequently some places use this safe version without needing it, and
many use an explicity list_for_each entry.

So:
 - rename rdev_for_each to rdev_for_each_safe
 - create a new rdev_for_each which uses the plain
   list_for_each_entry,
 - use the 'safe' version only where needed, and convert all other
   list_for_each_entry calls to use rdev_for_each.

NeilBrown 09cd9270ea md/linear: fix hot-add of devices to linear arrays.
commit d70ed2e4fa
broke hot-add to a linear array.
After that commit, metadata if not written to devices until they
have been fully integrated into the array as determined by
saved_raid_disk.  That patch arranged to clear that field after
a recovery completed.

However for linear arrays, there is no recovery - the integration is
instantaneous.  So we need to explicitly clear the saved_raid_disk
field.

Martin K. Petersen a91a2785b2 block: Require subsystems to explicitly allocate bio_set integrity mempool
MD and DM create a new bio_set for every metadevice. Each bio_set has an
integrity mempool attached regardless of whether the metadevice is
capable of passing integrity metadata. This is a waste of memory.

Instead we defer the allocation decision to MD and DM since we know at
metadevice creation time whether integrity passthrough is needed or not.

Automatic integrity mempool allocation can then be removed from
bioset_create() and we make an explicit integrity allocation for the
fs_bio_set.

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.

Tejun Heo e9c7469bb4 md: implment REQ_FLUSH/FUA support
This patch converts md to support REQ_FLUSH/FUA instead of now
deprecated REQ_HARDBARRIER.  In the core part (md.c), the following
changes are notable.

* Unlike REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA don't interfere with
  processing of other requests and thus there is no reason to mark the
  queue congested while FLUSH/FUA is in progress.

* REQ_FLUSH/FUA failures are final and its users don't need retry
  logic.  Retry logic is removed.

* Preflush needs to be issued to all member devices but FUA writes can
  be handled the same way as other writes - their processing can be
  deferred to request_queue of member devices.  md_barrier_request()
  is renamed to md_flush_request() and simplified accordingly.

For linear, raid0 and multipath, the core changes are enough.  raid1,
5 and 10 need the following conversions.

* raid1: Handling of FLUSH/FUA bio's can simply be deferred to
  request_queues of member devices.  Barrier related logic removed.

* raid5: Queue draining logic dropped.  FUA bit is propagated through
  biodrain and stripe resconstruction such that all the updated parts
  of the stripe are written out with FUA writes if any of the dirtying
  writes was FUA.  preread_active_stripes handling in make_request()
  is updated as suggested by Neil Brown.

* raid10: FUA bit needs to be propagated to write clones.

linear, raid0, 1, 5 and 10 tested.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my

If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch

the specific arch.

NeilBrown 627a2d3c29 md: deal with merge_bvec_fn in component devices better.
If a component device has a merge_bvec_fn then as we never call it
we must ensure we never need to.  Currently this is done by setting
max_sector to 1 PAGE, however this does not stop a bio being created
with several sub-page iovecs that would violate the merge_bvec_fn.

So instead set max_segments to 1 and set the segment boundary to the
same as a page boundary to ensure there is only ever one single-page
segment of IO requested at a time.

This can particularly be an issue when 'xen' is used as it is
known to submit multiple small buffers in a single bio.

Martin K. Petersen 086fa5ff08 block: Rename blk_queue_max_sectors to blk_queue_max_hw_sectors
The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_<limit name>.
blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion.
Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to
set max_hw_sectors.

Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability.  This can
be removed after the merge window is closed.

NeilBrown a2826aa92e md: support barrier requests on all personalities.
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.

As revalidate_disk calls check_disk_size_change, it will cause

Andre Noll ac5e7113e7 md: Push down data integrity code to personalities.
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.

Current, when we update the 'conf' structure, when adding a

Due to the lack of memory ordering guarantees, we may have races around
mddev->conf.

In particular, the correct contents of the structure we get from

they might not be correct w.r.t mddev->raid_disks.

Andre Noll 0894cc3066 md: Move check for bitmap presence to personality code.
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.
