Rather than adjusting max_nr_stripes whenever {grow,drop}_one_stripe()
succeeds, do it inside the functions.
Also choose the correct hash to handle next inside the functions.
This removes duplication and will help with future new uses of
{grow,drop}_one_stripe.
This also fixes a minor bug where the "md/raid:%md: allocate XXkB"

Depending on the available coding we allow optimized rmw logic for write
operations. To support easier testing this patch allows manual control
of the rmw/rcw descision through the interface /sys/block/mdX/md/rmw_level.
The configuration can handle three levels of control.
rmw_level=0: Disable rmw for all RAID types. Hardware assisted P/Q
calculation has no implementation path yet to factor in/out chunks of
a syndrome. Enforcing this level can be benefical for slow CPUs with
hardware syndrome support and fast SSDs.
rmw_level=1: Estimate rmw IOs and rcw IOs. Execute rmw only if we will
save IOs. This equals the "old" unpatched behaviour and will be the
default.
rmw_level=2: Execute rmw even if calculated IOs for rmw and rcw are
equal. We might have higher CPU consumption because of calculating the
parity twice but it can be benefical otherwise. E.g. RAID4 with fast
dedicated parity disk/SSD. The option is implemented just to be
forward-looking and will ONLY work with this patch!

Glue it altogehter. The raid6 rmw path should work the same as the
already existing raid5 logic. So emulate the prexor handling/flags
and split functions as needed.
1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer.
2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome
at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity.
3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only
the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync.
4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw
run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and
call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly.
5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k
unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger
stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce
cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under
layer disks.
With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write
together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe
of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps
of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including
ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes
running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to
increase IO size.
Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only
include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes
have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state
(no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new
read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch
list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in
exactly the same state in the life circly.
I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6
PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer
disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make
sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write.
Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded.
A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data
blocks, and one may be missing.
Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code
spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed.
So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.

Now that the ->stop function only frees the private data,

Finally, don't clear ->private. It doesn't make sense to clear
it seeing that isn't what we free, and it is no longer necessary
to clear ->private (it was some time ago before ->to_remove was
introduced).

Each md personality has a 'stop' operation which does two
things:
1/ it finalizes some aspects of the array to ensure nothing
is accessing the ->private data
2/ it frees the ->private data.
All the steps in '1' can apply to all arrays and so can be
performed in common code.
This is useful as in the case where we change the personality which
manages an array (in level_store()), it would be helpful to do
step 1 early, and step 2 later.
So split the 'step 1' functionality out into a new mddev_detach().

There is no locking around calls to merge_bvec_fn(), so
it is possible that calls which coincide with a level (or personality)

There is currently no locking around calls to the 'congested'
bdi function. If called at an awkward time while an array is
being converted from one level (or personality) to another, there
is a tiny chance of running code in an unreferenced module etc.
So add a 'congested' function to the md_personality operations
structure, and call it with appropriate locking from a central
'mddev_congested'.
When the array personality is changing the array will be 'suspended'
so no IO is processed.
If mddev_congested detects this, it simply reports that the
array is congested, which is a safe guess.
As mddev_suspend calls synchronize_rcu(), mddev_congested can
avoid races by included the whole call inside an rcu_read_lock()
region.
This require that the congested functions for all subordinate devices
can be run under rcu_lock. Fortunately this is the case.

That last condition is unclear and over cautious.
There are two related issues here.
If a partial write is destined for a missing device, then
either RMW or RCW can work. We must read all the available
block. Only then can the missing blocks be calculated, and
then the parity update performed.
If RMW is not an option, then there is a complication even
without partial writes. If we would need to read a missing
device to perform the reconstruction, then we must first read every
block so the missing device data can be computed.
This is the case for RAID6 (Which currently does not support
RMW) and for times when we don't trust the parity (after a crash)
and so are in the process of resyncing it.
So make these two cases more clear and separate, and perform
the relevant tests more thoroughly.

If a non-page-aligned write is destined for a device which
is missing/faulty, we can deadlock.
As the target device is missing, a read-modify-write cycle
is not possible.
As the write is not for a full-page, a recontruct-write cycle
is not possible.
This should be handled by logic in fetch_block() which notices
there is a non-R5_OVERWRITE write to a missing device, and so
loads all blocks.
However since commit 67f455486d, that code requires
STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE before it will active, and those circumstances
never set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE.
So: in handle_stripe_dirtying, if neither rmw or rcw was possible,
set STRIPE_DELAYED, which will cause STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE be set
after a suitable delay.

It is critical that fetch_block() and handle_stripe_dirtying()
are consistent in their analysis of what needs to be loaded.
Otherwise raid5 can wait forever for a block that won't be loaded.
Currently when writing to a RAID5 that is resyncing, to a location
beyond the resync offset, handle_stripe_dirtying chooses a
reconstruct-write cycle, but fetch_block() assumes a
read-modify-write, and a lockup can happen.
So treat that case just like RAID6, just as we do in
handle_stripe_dirtying. RAID6 always does reconstruct-write.
This bug was introduced when the behaviour of handle_stripe_dirtying
was changed in 3.7, so the patch is suitable for any kernel since,
though it will need careful merging for some versions.

It has come to my attention (thanks Martin) that 'discard_zeroes_data'
is only a hint. Some devices in some cases don't do what it
says on the label.
The use of DISCARD in RAID5 depends on reads from discarded regions
being predictably zero. If a write to a previously discarded region
performs a read-modify-write cycle it assumes that the parity block
was consistent with the data blocks. If all were zero, this would
be the case. If some are and some aren't this would not be the case.
This could lead to data corruption after a device failure when
data needs to be reconstructed from the parity.
As we cannot trust 'discard_zeroes_data', ignore it by default
and so disallow DISCARD on all raid4/5/6 arrays.
As many devices are trustworthy, and as there are benefits to using
DISCARD, add a module parameter to over-ride this caution and cause
DISCARD to work if discard_zeroes_data is set.
If a site want to enable DISCARD on some arrays but not on others they
should select DISCARD support at the filesystem level, and set the
raid456 module parameter.

As this is a data-safety issue, I believe this patch is suitable for

During recovery of a double-degraded RAID6 it is possible for
some blocks not to be recovered properly, leading to corruption.
If a write happens to one block in a stripe that would be written to a
missing device, and at the same time that stripe is recovering data
to the other missing device, then that recovered data may not be written.
This patch skips, in the double-degraded case, an optimisation that is
only safe for single-degraded arrays.
Bug was introduced in 2.6.32 and fix is suitable for any kernel since
then. In an older kernel with separate handle_stripe5() and
handle_stripe6() functions the patch must change handle_stripe6().

If a stripe in a raid6 array received a write to each data block while
the array is degraded, and if any of these writes to a missing device
are not page-aligned, then a live-lock happens.
In this case the P and Q blocks need to be read so that the part of
the missing block which is *not* being updated by the write can be
constructed. Due to a logic error, these blocks are not loaded, so
the update cannot proceed and the stripe is 'handled' repeatedly in an
infinite loop.
This bug is unlikely as most writes are page aligned. However as it
can lead to a livelock it is suitable for -stable. It was introduced
in 3.16.

The raid5 sync_request() processing calls handle_stripe() within the context of
the resync-thread. The resync-thread issues the first set of read requests
and this adds execution latency and slows down the scheduling of the next
sync_request().
The current rebuild/resync speed of raid5 is not much faster than what
rotational HDDs can sustain.
Testing the following patch on a 6-drive array, I can increase the rebuild
speed from 100 MB/s to 175 MB/s.
The sync_request() now just sets STRIPE_HANDLE and releases the stripe. This
creates some more parallelism between the resync-thread and raid5 kernel daemon.

A chunk aligned read increases counter active_aligned_reads and
decreases it after sub-device handle it successfully. But when a read
error occurs, the read redispatched by raid5d, and the
active_aligned_reads will not be decreased until we can grab a stripe
head in retry_aligned_read. Now suppose, a barrier io comes, set
conf->quiesce to 2, and wait until both active_stripes and
active_aligned_reads are zero. The retried chunk aligned read gets
stuck at get_active_stripe waiting until conf->quiesce becomes 0.
Retry_aligned_read and barrier io are waiting each other now.
One possible solution is that we ignore conf->quiesce, let the retried

The stripe cache has two goals:
1. cache data, so next time if data can be found in stripe cache, disk access
can be avoided.
2. stable data. data is copied from bio to stripe cache and calculated parity.
data written to disk is from stripe cache, so if upper layer changes bio data,
data written to disk isn't impacted.
In my environment, I can guarantee 2 will not happen. And BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES
can guarantee 2 too. For 1, it's not common too. block plug mechanism will
dispatch a bunch of sequentail small requests together. And since I'm using
SSD, I'm using small chunk size. It's rare case stripe cache is really useful.
So I'd like to avoid the copy from bio to stripe cache and it's very helpful
for performance. In my 1M randwrite tests, avoid the copy can increase the
performance more than 30%.
Of course, this shouldn't be enabled by default. It's reported enabling
BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES can harm some workloads before, so I added an option to
control it.

The (lockless) release_list reduces lock contention, but there is excessive
queueing and dequeuing of stripes on this list. A stripe will currently be
queued on the release_list with a stripe reference count > 1. This can cause
the raid5 kernel thread(s) to dequeue the stripe and decrement the refcount
without doing any other useful processing of the stripe. The are two cases
when the stripe can be put on the release_list multiple times before it is
actually handled by the kernel thread(s).
1) make_request() activates the stripe processing in 4k increments. When a
write request is large enough to span multiple chunks of a stripe_head, the
first 4k chunk adds the stripe to the plug list. The next 4k chunk that is
processed for the same stripe puts the stripe on the release_list with a
refcount=2. This can cause the kernel thread to process and decrement the
stripe before the stripe us unplugged, which again will put it back on the
release_list.
2) Whenever IO is scheduled on a stripe (pre-read and/or write), the stripe
refcount is set to the number of active IO (for each chunk). The stripe is
released as each IO complete, and can be queued and dequeued multiple times
on the release_list, until its refcount finally reached zero.
This simple patch will ensure a stripe is only queued on the release_list when
its refcount=1 and is ready to be handled by the kernel thread(s). I added some
instrumentation to raid5 and counted the number of times striped were queued on
the release_list for a variety of write IO sizes. Without this patch the number
of times stripes got queued on the release_list was 100-500% higher than with
the patch. The excess queuing will increase with the IO size. The patch also
improved throughput by 5-10%.

If it is found that we need to pre-read some blocks before a write
can succeed, we normally set STRIPE_DELAYED and don't actually perform
the read until STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE subsequently gets set.
However for a degraded RAID6 we currently perform the reads as soon
as we see that a write is pending. This significantly hurts
throughput.
So:
- when handle_stripe_dirtying find a block that it wants on a device
that is failed, set STRIPE_DELAY, instead of doing nothing, and
- when fetch_block detects that a read might be required to satisfy a
write, only perform the read if STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE is set,
and if we would actually need to read something to complete the write.
This also helps RAID5, though less often as RAID5 supports a
read-modify-write cycle. For RAID5 the read is performed too early
only if the write is not a full 4K aligned write (i.e. no an
R5_OVERWRITE).
Also clean up a couple of horrible bits of formatting.

In NUMA machine, prepare_to_wait/finish_wait in make_request exposes a
lot of contention for sequential workload (or big request size
workload). For such workload, each bio includes several stripes. So we
can just do prepare_to_wait/finish_wait once for the whold bio instead
of every stripe. This reduces the lock contention completely for such
workload. Random workload might have the similar lock contention too,
but I didn't see it yet, maybe because my stroage is still not fast
enough.

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Interestingly, the raid5 code can actually prevent double initialization and
hence can use the following simplified form of callback registration:
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
put_online_cpus();
A hotplug operation that occurs between registering the notifier and calling
get_online_cpus(), won't disrupt anything, because the code takes care to
perform the memory allocations only once.
So reorganize the code in raid5 this way to fix the deadlock with callback
registration.

As release_stripe and __release_stripe decrement ->count and then
manipulate ->lru both under ->device_lock, it is important that
get_active_stripe() increments ->count and clears ->lru also under
->device_lock.
However we currently list_del_init ->lru under the lock, but increment
the ->count outside the lock. This can lead to races and list
corruption.
So move the atomic_inc(&sh->count) up inside the ->device_lock
protected region.
Note that we still increment ->count without device lock in the case
where get_free_stripe() was called, and in fact don't take
->device_lock at all in that path.
This is safe because if the stripe_head can be found by
get_free_stripe, then the hash lock assures us the no-one else could
possibly be calling release_stripe() at the same time.

Before a write starts we set a bit in the write-intent bitmap.
When the write completes we clear that bit if the write was successful
to all devices. However if the write wasn't fully successful we
should not clear the bit. If the faulty drive is subsequently
re-added, the fact that the bit is still set ensure that we will
re-write the data that is missing.
This logic is mediated by the STRIPE_DEGRADED flag - we only clear the
bitmap bit when this flag is not set.
Currently we correctly set the flag if a write starts when some
devices are failed or missing. But we do *not* set the flag if some
device failed during the write attempt.
This is wrong and can result in clearing the bit inappropriately.
So: set the flag when a write fails.
This bug has been present since bitmaps were introduces, so the fix is
suitable for any -stable kernel.

commit 6d183de407
md/raid5: fix newly-broken locking in get_active_stripe.
simplified a BUG_ON, but removed too much so now it sometimes fires
when it shouldn't.
When the STRIPE_EXPANDING flag is set, the stripe_head might be on a
special list while multiple stripe_heads are collected, or it might
not be on any list, even a 'free' list when the refcount is zero. As
long as STRIPE_EXPANDING is set, it will be found and added back to a
list eventually.
So both of the BUG_ONs which test for the ->lru being empty or not
need to avoid the case where STRIPE_EXPANDING is set.
The patch which broke this was marked for -stable, so this patch needs
to be applied to any branch that received 6d183de4

commit 566c09c534 raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe()
modified the locking in get_active_stripe() reducing the range
protected by the (highly contended) device_lock.
Unfortunately it reduced the range too much opening up some races.
One race can occur if get_priority_stripe runs between the
test on sh->count and device_lock being taken.
This will mean that sh->lru is not empty while get_active_stripe
thinks ->count is zero resulting in a 'BUG' firing.
Another race happens if __release_stripe is called immediately
after sh->count is tested and found to be non-zero. If STRIPE_HANDLE
is not set, get_active_stripe should increment ->active_stripes
when it increments ->count from 0, but as it didn't think it was 0,
it doesn't.
Extending device_lock to cover the test on sh->count close these
races.
While we are here, fix the two BUG tests:
-If count is zero, then lru really must not be empty, or we've
lock the stripe_head somehow - no other tests are relevant.
-STRIPE_ON_RELEASE_LIST is completely independent of ->lru so
testing it is pointless.

We currently use kthread_should_stop() in various places in the
sync/reshape code to abort early.
However some places set MD_RECOVERY_INTR but don't immediately call
md_reap_sync_thread() (and we will shortly get another one).
When this happens we are relying on md_check_recovery() to reap the
thread and that only happen when it finishes normally.
So MD_RECOVERY_INTR must lead to a normal finish without the
kthread_should_stop() test.
So replace all relevant tests, and be more careful when the thread is
interrupted not to acknowledge that latest step in a reshape as it may
not be fully committed yet.
Also add a test on MD_RECOVERY_INTR in the 'is_mddev_idle' loop
so we don't wait have to wait for the speed to drop before we can abort.

get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two
paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is
stripe is found.
The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses
conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks,
conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded,
conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except
stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely.
With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free
stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined
by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a
lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which
is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current
stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned
to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl
list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new
locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash
locks, lock contention is relieved significantly.
The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are
changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash
locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem.
If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The
tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first.
Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it
to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to
temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash
lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which
means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe.
One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't
across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so
each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but
other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are
even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several
mega bytes memory isn't a big deal.
This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of
get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though
because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended,
the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second
path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size
randwrite) still has lock contentions.

to one, the second bio has bi_vcnt 1 which is set in raid5. This will confuse
SCSI and cause oops.

If there are not enough stripes to handle, we'd better not always
queue all available work_structs. If one worker can only handle small
or even none stripes, it will impact request merge and create lock
contention.
With this patch, the number of work_struct running will depend on
pending stripes number. Note: some statistics info used in the patch
are accessed without locking protection. This should doesn't matter,
we just try best to avoid queue unnecessary work_struct.

Some requests - particularly 'discard' and 'read' are handled
differently depending on whether a reshape is active or not.
It is harmless to assume reshape is active if it isn't but wrong
to act as though reshape is not active when it is.
So when we start reshape - after making clear to all requests that
reshape has started - use mddev_suspend/mddev_resume to flush out all
requests. This will ensure that no requests will be assuming the
absence of reshape once it really starts.

make_request() access various shape parameters (raid_disks, chunk_size
etc) which might be changed by raid5_start_reshape().
If the later is called at and awkward time during the form, the wrong
stripe_head might be used.
So introduce a 'seqcount' and after finding a stripe_head make sure
there is no reason to expect that we got the wrong one.

This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes.
This time I use workqueue.
raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size
aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a
state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks
of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The
state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one
thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is
multi-threading.
To get better performance, we have some requirements:
a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better
handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some
times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy.
local node running has wide adaptability.
b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent
configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean
better performance because of lock contentions.
My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are
interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And
userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility
and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool
implementation is disfavor.
Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be
bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to
do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in
affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running
thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number.
In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node.
stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread
of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way,
stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread
number by limiting dispatched work_struct number.
The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical
work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the
unit is a stripe. But we can't do that:
a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting
and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make
workqueue lock contended very heavily.
b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we
might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block
plug is meaningless.
This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa
binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads.
Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might
decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends
on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might
not be proper for all setups.

release_stripe still has big lock contention. We just add the stripe to a llist
without taking device_lock. We let the raid5d thread to do the real stripe
release, which must hold device_lock anyway. In this way, release_stripe
doesn't hold any locks.
The side effect is the released stripes order is changed. But sounds not a big
deal, stripes are never handled in order. And I thought block layer can already
do nice request merge, which means order isn't that important.
I kept the unplug release batch, which is unnecessary with this patch from lock
contention avoid point of view, and actually if we delete it, the stripe_head
release_list and lru can share storage. But the unplug release batch is also
helpful for request merge. We probably can delay wakeup raid5d till unplug, but
I'm still afraid of the case which raid5d is running.

If a device in a RAID4/5/6 is being replaced while another is being
recovered, then the writes to the replacement device currently don't
happen, resulting in corruption when the replacement completes and the
new drive takes over.
This is because the replacement writes are only triggered when
's.replacing' is set and not when the similar 's.sync' is set (which
is the case during resync and recovery - it means all devices need to
be read).
So schedule those writes when s.replacing is set as well.
In this case we cannot use "STRIPE_INSYNC" to record that the
replacement has happened as that is needed for recording that any
parity calculation is complete. So introduce STRIPE_REPLACED to
record if the replacement has happened.
For safety we should also check that STRIPE_COMPUTE_RUN is not set.
This has a similar effect to the "s.locked == 0" test. The latter
ensure that now IO has been flagged but not started. The former
checks if any parity calculation has been flagged by not started.
We must wait for both of these to complete before triggering the
'replace'.
Add a similar test to the subsequent check for "are we finished yet".
This possibly isn't needed (is subsumed in the STRIPE_INSYNC test),
but it makes it more obvious that the REPLACE will happen before we
think we are finished.
Finally if a NeedReplace device is not UPTODATE then that is an
error. We really must trigger a warning.
This bug was introduced in commit 9a3e1101b8
(md/raid5: detect and handle replacements during recovery.)
which introduced replacement for raid5.
That was in 3.3-rc3, so any stable kernel since then would benefit
from this fix.

There is a bug in 'check_reshape' for raid5.c To checks
that the new minimum number of devices is large enough (which is
good), but it does so also after the reshape has started (bad).
This is bad because
- the calculation is now wrong as mddev->raid_disks has changed
already, and
- it is pointless because it is now too late to stop.
So only perform that test when reshape has not been committed to.

md/raid1,5,10: Disable WRITE SAME until a recovery strategy is in place
md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places.
md/raid1: consider WRITE as successful only if at least one non-Faulty and non-rebuilding drive completed it.
md: md_stop_writes() should always freeze recovery.
There are cases where the kernel will believe that the WRITE SAME
command is supported by a block device which does not, in fact,
support WRITE SAME. This currently happens for SATA drivers behind a
SAS controller, but there are probably a hundred other ways that can
happen, including drive firmware bugs.
After receiving an error for WRITE SAME the block layer will retry the
request as a plain write of zeroes, but mdraid will consider the
failure as fatal and consider the drive failed. This has the effect
that all the mirrors containing a specific set of data are each
offlined in very rapid succession resulting in data loss.
However, just bouncing the request back up to the block layer isn't
ideal either, because the whole initial request-retry sequence should
be inside the write bitmap fence, which probably means that md needs
to do its own conversion of WRITE SAME to write zero.
Until the failure scenario has been sorted out, disable WRITE SAME for
raid1, raid5, and raid10.

This is the pull request for the earlier patchset[1] with the same

workqueue tree) but the merge strategy is a bit involved due to the
dependencies.
* Because the conversion needs features from wq/for-3.10,
block/for-3.10/core is based on rc3, and wq/for-3.10 has conflicts
with rc3, I pulled mainline (rc5) into wq/for-3.10 to prevent those
workqueue conflicts from flaring up in block tree.
* Resolving the issue that Jan and Dave raised about debugging
requires arch-wide changes. The patchset is being worked on[2] but
it'll have to go through -mm after these changes show up in -next,
and not included in this pull request.
The three commits are located in the following git branch.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git writeback-workqueue
Pulling it into block/for-3.10/core produces a conflict in
drivers/md/raid5.c between the following two commits.
e3620a3ad5 ("MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available")
2f6db2a707 ("raid5: use bio_reset()")
The conflict is trivial - one removes an "if ()" conditional while the
other removes "rbi->bi_next = NULL" right above it. We just need to
remove both. The merged branch is available at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git block-test-merge
so that you can use it for verification. The test merge commit has
proper merge description.
While these changes are a bit of pain to route, they make code simpler
and even have, while minute, measureable performance gain[3] even on a
workload which isn't particularly favorable to showing the benefits of
this conversion.

A number of problems can occur due to races between
resync/recovery and discard.
- if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is
happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event
before all of the individual discard requests have completed
(so some devices are still locked, but not all).
Since commit ca64cae960
md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished.
this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device,
so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other
devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared.
This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up.
- If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward
time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks
in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is
one).
So:
- keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have
completed their discard request
- make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at
the same time.
This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is
happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a
discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up
the discard at the appropriate time.
Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for
any -stable kernel since 3.7.

MD RAID5: Fix kernel oops when RAID4/5/6 is used via device-mapper
Commit a9add5d (v3.8-rc1) added blktrace calls to the RAID4/5/6 driver.
However, when device-mapper is used to create RAID4/5/6 arrays, the
mddev->gendisk and mddev->queue fields are not setup. Therefore, calling
things like trace_block_bio_remap will cause a kernel oops. This patch
conditionalizes those calls on whether the proper fields exist to make
the calls. (Device-mapper will call trace_block_bio_remap on its own.)
This patch is suitable for the 3.8.y stable kernel.

md/raid5: make sure to_read and to_write never go negative.
It has been possible for handle_stripe_dirtying to be called
when there isn't actually any work to do.
It then calls schedule_reconstruction() which will set R5_LOCKED
on the parity block(s) even when nothing else is happening.
This then causes problems in do_release_stripe().
So add checks to schedule_reconstruction() so that if it doesn't
find anything to do, it just aborts.
This bug was introduced in v3.7, so the patch is suitable

"Below are the core block IO bits for 3.9. It was delayed a few days
since my workstation kept crashing every 2-8h after pulling it into
current -git, but turns out it is a bug in the new pstate code (divide

- The big cfq/blkcg update from Tejun and and Vivek.
- Additional block and writeback tracepoints from Tejun.
- Improvement of the should sort (based on queues) logic in the plug

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

bio completion didn't kick block_bio_complete TP. Only dm was
explicitly triggering the TP on IO completion. This makes
block_bio_complete TP useless for tracers which want to know about
bios, and all other bio based drivers skip generating blktrace
completion events.
This patch makes all bio completions via bio_endio() generate
block_bio_complete TP.
* Explicit trace_block_bio_complete() invocation removed from dm and
the trace point is unexported.
* @rq dropped from trace_block_bio_complete(). bios may fly around
w/o queue associated. Verifying and accessing the assocaited queue
belongs to TP probes.
* blktrace now gets both request and bio completions. Make it ignore
bio completions if request completion path is happening.
This makes all bio based drivers generate blktrace completion events
properly and makes the block_bio_complete TP actually useful.
v2: With this change, block_bio_complete TP could be invoked on sg
commands which have bio's with %NULL bi_bdev. Update TP
assignment code to check whether bio->bi_bdev is %NULL before
dereferencing.

New wait_event{_interruptible}_lock_irq{_cmd} macros added. This commit
moves the private wait_event_lock_irq() macro from MD to regular wait
includes, introduces new macro wait_event_lock_irq_cmd() instead of using
the old method with omitting cmd parameter which is ugly and makes a use
of new macros in the MD. It also introduces the _interruptible_ variant.
The use of new interface is when one have a special lock to protect data
structures used in the condition, or one also needs to invoke "cmd"
before putting it to sleep.
All new macros are expected to be called with the lock taken. The lock
is released before sleep and is reacquired afterwards. We will leave the
macro with the lock held.
Note to DM: IMO this should also fix theoretical race on waitqueue while
using simultaneously wait_event_lock_irq() and wait_event() because of
lack of locking around current state setting and wait queue removal.

commit 9e44476851
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.

stripe_handle.
The chunk of code in stripe_handle which responds to a
*_result value in reconstruct_state is really the completion
of some processing that happened outside of handle_stripe
(possibly asynchronously) and so should be one of the first
things done in handle_stripe().
After the next patch it will be important that it happens before
handle_stripe_clean_event(), as that will clear some dev->flags
bit that this code tests.

to_read and to_write are part of the result of analysing
a stripe before handling it.
Their use is to avoid some loops and tests if the values are
known to be zero. Thus it is not a problem if they are a
little bit larger than they should be.
So decrementing them in handle_failed_stripe serves little value, and
due to races it could cause some loops to be skipped incorrectly.
So remove those decrements.

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.

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.

When a replacement device becomes active, we mark the device that it
replaces as 'faulty' so that it can subsequently get removed.
However 'calc_degraded' only pays attention to the primary device, not
the replacement, so the array appears to become degraded, which is
wrong.
So teach 'calc_degraded' to consider any replacement if a primary
device is faulty.
This is suitable for -stable as an incorrect 'degraded' value can
confuse md and could lead to data corruption.
This is only relevant for 3.3 and later.

This reverts commit 895e3c5c58.
While this patch seemed like a good idea and did help some workloads,
it hurts other workloads.
Large sequential O_DIRECT writes were faster,
Small random O_DIRECT writes were slower.
Other changes (batching RAID5 writes) have improved the sequential
writes using a different mechanism, so the net result of this patch
is definitely negative. So revert it.

make_request() does stripe release for every stripe and the stripe usually has
count 1, which makes previous release_stripe() optimization not work. In my
test, this release_stripe() becomes the heaviest pleace to take
conf->device_lock after previous patches applied.
Below patch makes stripe release batch. All the stripes will be released in
unplug. The STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST bit is to protect concurrent access stripe
lru.

This seemed like a good idea at the time, but after further thought I
cannot see it making a difference other than very occasionally and
testing to try to exercise the case it is most likely to help did not
show any performance difference by removing it.
So remove the counting of active plugs and allow 'pending writes' to
be activated at any time, not just when no plugs are active.
This is only relevant when there is a write-intent bitmap, and the
updating of the bitmap will likely introduce enough delay that
the single-threading of bitmap updates will be enough to collect large
numbers of updates together.
Removing this will make it easier to centralise the unplug code, and
will clear the other for other unplug enhancements which have a
measurable effect.

'sync' writes set both REQ_SYNC and REQ_NOIDLE.
O_DIRECT writes set REQ_SYNC but not REQ_NOIDLE.
We currently assume that a REQ_SYNC request will not be followed by
more requests and so set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE to expedite the
request.
This is appropriate for sync requests, but not for O_DIRECT requests.
So make the setting of STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE conditional on REQ_NOIDLE
rather than REQ_SYNC. This is consistent with the documented meaning
of REQ_NOIDLE:
__REQ_NOIDLE, /* don't anticipate more IO after this one */

Add a per-stripe lock to protect stripe specific data. The purpose is to reduce
lock contention of conf->device_lock.
stripe ->toread, ->towrite are protected by per-stripe lock. Accessing bio
list of the stripe is always serialized by this lock, so adding bio to the
lists (add_stripe_bio()) and removing bio from the lists (like
ops_run_biofill()) not race.
If bio in ->read, ->written ... list are not shared by multiple stripes, we
don't need any lock to protect ->read, ->written, because STRIPE_ACTIVE will
protect them. If the bio are shared, there are two protections:
1. bi_phys_segments acts as a reference count
2. traverse the list uses r5_next_bio, which makes traverse never access bio
not belonging to the stripe
Let's have an example:
| stripe1 | stripe2 | stripe3 |
...bio1......|bio2|bio3|....bio4.....
stripe2 has 4 bios, when it's finished, it will decrement bi_phys_segments for
all bios, but only end_bio for bio2 and bio3. bio1->bi_next still points to
bio2, but this doesn't matter. When stripe1 is finished, it will not touch bio2
because of r5_next_bio check. Next time stripe1 will end_bio for bio1 and
stripe3 will end_bio bio4.
before add_stripe_bio() addes a bio to a stripe, we already increament the bio
bi_phys_segments, so don't worry other stripes release the bio.

Neil pointed out the bitmap write optimization in handle_stripe_clean_event()
is unnecessary, because the chance one stripe gets written twice in the mean
time is rare. We can always do a bitmap_startwrite when a write request is
added to a stripe and bitmap_endwrite after write request is done. Delete the
optimization. With it, we can delete some cases of device_lock.

The value returned by "mddev_check_plug" is only valid until the
next 'schedule' as that will unplug things. This could happen at any
call to mempool_alloc.
So just calling mddev_check_plug at the start doesn't really make
sense.
So call it just before, or just after, queuing things for the thread.
As the action that happens at unplug is to wake the thread, this makes
lots of sense.
If we cannot add a plug (which requires a small GFP_ATOMIC alloc) we
wake thread immediately.
RAID5 is a bit different. Requests are queued for the thread and the
thread is woken by release_stripe. So we don't need to wake the
thread on failure.
However the thread doesn't perform certain actions when there is any
active plug, so it is important to install a plug before waking the
thread. So for RAID5 we install the plug *before* queuing the request
and waking the thread.
Without this patch it is possible for raid1 or raid10 to queue a
request without then waking the thread, resulting in the array locking
up.
Also change raid10 to only flush_pending_write when there are not
active plugs, just like raid1.
This patch is suitable for 3.0 or later. I plan to submit it to
-stable, but I'll like to let it spend a few weeks in mainline
first to be sure it is completely safe.

There isn't locking setting STRIPE_DELAYED and STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE bits, but
the two bits have relationship. A delayed stripe can be moved to hold list only
when preread active stripe count is below IO_THRESHOLD. If a stripe has both
the bits set, such stripe will be in delayed list and preread count not 0,
which will make such stripe never leave delayed list.

Having the 'name' arg optional and defaulting to the current

changing the level of an array we can end up using the
name of the old level instead of the new one.
So make it non-optional and always explicitly pass the name
of the level that the array will be.

If a RAID5 has both a failed device and a device marked as
'WantReplacement', then we should preferentially replace the failed
device.
However the current code replaces whichever is found first.
So split into 2 loops, check fail failed/missing first, and only check
for WantReplacement if nothing is failed or missing.

After a reshape which reduced the number of devices we need
to disconnect the extra devices.
The code for this doesn't currently handle 'replacement' devices.
It is very unlikely that such devices will be present, but it is
safest to handle them anyway.

When reshaping we can avoid costly intermediate backup by
changing the 'start' address of the array on the device
(if there is enough room).
So as a first step, allow such a change to be requested
through sysfs, and recorded in v1.x metadata.
(As we didn't previous check that all 'pad' fields were zero,
we need a new FEATURE flag for this.
A (belatedly) check that all remaining 'pad' fields are
zero to avoid a repeat of this)
The new data offset must be requested separately for each device.
This allows each to have a different change in the data offset.
This is not likely to be used often but as data_offset can be
set per-device, new_data_offset should be too.
This patch also removes the 'acknowledged' arg to rdev_set_badblocks as
it is never used and never will be. At the same time we add a new
arg ('in_new') which is currently always zero but will be used more
soon.
When a reshape finishes we will need to update the data_offset
and rdev->sectors. So provide an exported function to do that.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
Currently a reshape operation always progresses from the start
of the array to the end unless the number of devices is being
reduced, in which case it progressed in the opposite direction.
To reverse a partial reshape which changes the number of devices
you can stop the array and re-assemble with the raid-disks numbers
reversed and it will undo.
However for a reshape that does not change the number of devices
it is not possible to reverse the reshape in the middle - you have to
wait until it completes.
So add a 'reshape_direction' attribute with is either 'forwards' or
'backwards' and can be explicitly set when delta_disks is zero.
This will become more important when we allow the data_offset to
change in a reshape. Then the explicit statement of what direction is
being used will be more useful.
This can be enabled in raid5 trivially as it already supports
reverse reshape and just needs to use a different trigger to request it.
