Trying to do both SCSI and NVMe bio-based handling with branching in the
same common code has proven too tedious on a code maintenance level. In
addition it slightly hurts IO performance.
Fix this by factoring out __map_bio() and __map_bio_nvme().

This DM multipath NVMe bio-based support requires CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH
to not be set. In the future hopefully NVMe multipath and DM multipath
can co-exist more seemlessly. But as is, if CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH=Y
then all the individal NVMe paths will remain hidden to upper layers and
as such DM multipath will not be able to manage them.
Though NVMe's native multipathing doesn't multipath namespaces across
subsystems; so technically a user _could_ use CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH=Y
and also use DM multipath to multipath across subsystems.

Upper level bio-based drivers that stack immediately ontop of NVMe can
leverage direct_make_request(). In addition DM's NVMe bio-based

If dm_table_determine_type() establishes DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED then
all devices in the DM table do not support partial completions. Also,
the table has a single immutable target that doesn't require DM core to

No apparent need to generic_start_io_acct() until before the IO is ready
for submission. start_io_acct() is the proper place to do this
accounting -- it is also where DM accounts for pending IO and, if
enabled, starts dm-stats accounting.
Replace start_io_acct()'s part_round_stats() with generic_start_io_acct().
This eliminates needing to take part_stat_lock() multiple times when
starting an IO on bio-based devices.

Eliminates need for a separate mempool to allocate 'struct dm_io'
objects from. As such, it saves an extra mempool allocation for each
original bio that DM core is issued.
This complicates the per-bio-data accessor functions by needing to
conditonally add extra padding to get to a target's per-bio-data. But
in the end this provides a decent performance improvement for all
bio-based DM devices.
On an NVMe-loop based testbed to a ramdisk (~3100 MB/s): bio-based
DM linear performance improved by 2% (went from 2665 to 2777 MB/s).

DM targets can request multiple bios be sent to them by DM core (see:

A dm device can, in general, represent a tree of targets, each of which
handles a sub-range of the range of blocks handled by the parent.
The bio sequencing managed by generic_make_request() requires that bios
are generated and handled in a depth-first manner. Each call to a
make_request_fn() may submit bios to a single member device, and may
submit bios for a reduced region of the same device as the
make_request_fn.
In particular, any bios submitted to member devices must be expected to
be processed in order, so a later one must never wait for an earlier
one.
This ordering is usually achieved by using bio_split() to reduce a bio
to a size that can be completely handled by one target, and resubmitting
the remainder to the originating device. bio_queue_split() shows the
canonical approach.
dm doesn't follow this approach, largely because it has needed to split
bios since long before bio_split() was available. It currently can
submit bios to separate targets within the one dm_make_request() call.
Dependencies between these targets, as can happen with dm-snap, can
cause deadlocks if either bios gets stuck behind the other in the queues
managed by generic_make_request(). This requires the 'rescue'
functionality provided by dm_offload_{start,end}.
Some of this requirement can be removed by changing the order of bio
submission to follow the canonical approach. That is, if dm finds that
it needs to split a bio, the remainder should be sent to
generic_make_request() rather than being handled immediately. This
delays the handling until the first part is completely processed, so the
deadlock problems do not occur.
__split_and_process_bio() can be called both from dm_make_request() and
from dm_wq_work(). When called from dm_wq_work() the current approach
is perfectly satisfactory as each bio will be processed immediately.
When called from dm_make_request(), current->bio_list will be non-NULL,
and in this case it is best to create a separate "clone" bio for the
remainder.
When we use bio_clone_bioset() to split off the front part of a bio
and chain the two together and submit the remainder to
generic_make_request(), it is important that the newly allocated
bio is used as the head to be processed immediately, and the original
bio gets "bio_advance()"d and sent to generic_make_request() as the
remainder. Otherwise, if the newly allocated bio is used as the
remainder, and if it then needs to be split again, then the next
bio_clone_bioset() call will be made while holding a reference a bio
(result of the first clone) from the same bioset. This can potentially
exhaust the bioset mempool and result in a memory allocation deadlock.
Note that there is no race caused by reassigning cio.io->bio after already
calling __map_bio(). This bio will only be dereferenced again after
dec_pending() has found io->io_count to be zero, and this cannot happen
before the dec_pending() call at the end of __split_and_process_bio().
To provide the clone bio when splitting, we use q->bio_split. This
was previously being freed by bio-based dm to avoid having excess
rescuer threads. As bio_split bio sets no longer create rescuer
threads, there is little cost and much gain from restoring the
q->bio_split bio set.

In order to avoid redoing synchronization/recovery/reshape partially,
the raid set got frozen until after all passed in table line flags had

followed, or reshaping may lead to data corruption caused by the active

had retrieved a stale reshape position.
Harden by retrieving the actual resync/recovery/reshape position
during resume whilst the active table is suspended thus avoiding
to keep the raid set frozen altogether. This prevents superfluous
redoing of an already resynchronized or recovered segment and,
most importantly, potential for redoing of an already reshaped

When system is under memory pressure it is observed that dm bufio
shrinker often reclaims only one buffer per scan. This change fixes
the following two issues in dm bufio shrinker that cause this behavior:
1. ((nr_to_scan - freed) <= retain_target) condition is used to
terminate slab scan process. This assumes that nr_to_scan is equal
to the LRU size, which might not be correct because do_shrink_slab()
in vmscan.c calculates nr_to_scan using multiple inputs.
As a result when nr_to_scan is less than retain_target (64) the scan
will terminate after the first iteration, effectively reclaiming one
buffer per scan and making scans very inefficient. This hurts vmscan
performance especially because mutex is acquired/released every time
dm_bufio_shrink_scan() is called.
New implementation uses ((LRU size - freed) <= retain_target)
condition for scan termination. LRU size can be safely determined
inside __scan() because this function is called after dm_bufio_lock().
2. do_shrink_slab() uses value returned by dm_bufio_shrink_count() to
determine number of freeable objects in the slab. However dm_bufio
always retains retain_target buffers in its LRU and will terminate
a scan when this mark is reached. Therefore returning the entire LRU size
from dm_bufio_shrink_count() is misleading because that does not
represent the number of freeable objects that slab will reclaim during
a scan. Returning (LRU size - retain_target) better represents the
number of freeable objects in the slab. This way do_shrink_slab()
returns 0 when (LRU size < retain_target) and vmscan will not try to
scan this shrinker avoiding scans that will not reclaim any memory.

Merge tag 'at24-4.15-fixes-for-wolfram' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brgl/linux into i2c/for-current
Please consider pulling the following fixes for v4.15. While it doesn't
fix any regression introduced in the v4.15 merge window, we have a
feature in at24 since linux v4.8 - reading the mac address block from
at24mac series - which turned out to be not working.
This pull request contains changes that fix it together with a patch
that hardens the read and write argument sanitization with
out-of-bounds checks that were missing.
