Philipp Reisner 298307ed1d drbd: Remove obsolete check
Smatch complained about it this redundanct check.

The check was introduced in 2006-09-13. On 2007-07-24 the body of the
function was enclosed by get_ldev()/put_ldev() reference counting.
Since then the check is useless and miss leading.

Philipp Reisner fd0017c124 drbd: fix regression: potential NULL pointer dereference
recent commit
    drbd: always write bitmap on detach
introduced a bitmap writeout during detach,
which obviously needs some meta data device to write to.

Unfortunately, that same error path may be taken if we fail to attach,
e.g. due to UUID mismatch, after we changed state to D_ATTACHING,
but before the lower level device pointer is even assigned.

We need to test for presence of mdev->ldev.

Lars Ellenberg edc9f5eb7a drbd: always write bitmap on detach
If we detach due to local read-error (which sets a bit in the bitmap),
stay Primary, and then re-attach (which re-reads the bitmap from disk),
we potentially lost the "out-of-sync" (or, "bad block") information in
the bitmap.

Always (try to) write out the changed bitmap pages before going diskless.

That way, we don't lose the bit for the bad block,
the next resync will fetch it from the peer, and rewrite
it locally, which may result in block reallocation in some
lower layer (or the hardware), and thereby "heal" the bad blocks.

If the bitmap writeout errors out as well, we will (again: try to)
mark the "we need a full sync" bit in our super block,
if it was a READ error; writes are covered by the activity log already.

If that superblock does not make it to disk either, we are sorry.

Maybe we just lost an entire disk or controller (or iSCSI connection),
and there actually are no bad blocks at all, so we don't need to
re-fetch from the peer, there is no "auto-healing" necessary.

Philipp Reisner 19fffd7b03 drbd: Call drbd_md_sync() explicitly after a state change on the connection
Without this, the meta-data gets updates after 5 seconds by the
md_sync_timer. Better to do it immeditaly after a state change.

If the asender detects a network failure, it may take a bit until
the worker processes the according after-conn-state-change work item.

  The worker might be blocked in sending something, i.e. it
  takes until it gets into its timeout. That is 6 seconds by
  default which is longer than the 5 seconds of the md_sync_timer.

Lars Ellenberg b792b655cd drbd: fix potential list_add corruption
If the md_sync_timer triggers a second time,
while the work queued during the first time is still pending,
this could result in list_add() of an already added item,
and corrupt the work item list.

This likely only triggered because of the erroneous
batch-dequeueing of work items fixed with
  drbd: dequeue single work items in wait_for_work()

Still, skip queueing if md_sync_work is already queued.

Lars Ellenberg 0c84966601 drbd: differentiate between normal and forced detach
Aborting local requests (not waiting for completion from the lower level
disk) is dangerous: if the master bio has been completed to upper
layers, data pages may be re-used for other things already.
If local IO is still pending and later completes,
this may cause crashes or corrupt unrelated data.

Only abort local IO if explicitly requested.
Intended use case is a lower level device that turned into a tarpit,
not completing io requests, not even doing error completion.

Lars Ellenberg 9a278a7906 drbd: allow read requests to be retried after force-detach
Sometimes, a lower level block device turns into a tar-pit,
not completing requests at all, not even doing error completion.

We can force-detach from such a tar-pit block device,
either by disk-timeout, or by drbdadm detach --force.

Queueing for retry only from the request destruction path (kref hit 0)
makes it impossible to retry affected read requests from the peer,
until the local IO completion happened, as the locally submitted
bio holds a reference on the drbd request object.

If we can only complete READs when the local completion finally
happens, we would not need to force-detach in the first place.

Instead, queue for retry where we otherwise had done the error completion.

The logic for when to get or put a reference is in mod_rq_state().

To not get confused in the freeze/thaw respectively resend/restart

also introduces additional state flags:
RQ_COMPLETION_SUSP, and RQ_EXP_BARR_ACK.

Lars Ellenberg b6dd1a8976 drbd: remove struct drbd_tl_epoch objects (barrier works)
cherry-picked and adapted from drbd 9 devel branch

DRBD requests (struct drbd_request) are already on the per resource
transfer log list, and carry their epoch number. We do not need to
additionally link them on other ring lists in other structs.

The drbd sender thread can recognize itself when to send a P_BARRIER,
by tracking the currently processed epoch, and how many writes
have been processed for that epoch.

If the epoch of the request to be processed does not match the currently
processed epoch, any writes have been processed in it, a P_BARRIER for
this last processed epoch is send out first.
The new epoch then becomes the currently processed epoch.

To not get stuck in drbd_al_begin_io() waiting for P_BARRIER_ACK,
the sender thread also needs to handle the case when the current
epoch was closed already, but no new requests are queued yet,
and send out P_BARRIER as soon as possible.

This is done by comparing the per resource "current transfer log epoch"
(tconn->current_tle_nr) with the per connection "currently processed
epoch number" (tconn->send.current_epoch_nr), while waiting for
new requests to be processed in wait_for_work().

Lars Ellenberg 2312f0b3c5 drbd: fix potential deadlock during "restart" of conflicting writes
w_restart_write(), run from worker context, calls __drbd_make_request()
and further drbd_al_begin_io(, delegate=true), which then
potentially deadlocks.  The previous patch moved a BUG_ON to expose
such call paths, which would now be triggered.

Also, if we call __drbd_make_request() from resource worker context,
like w_restart_write() did, and that should block for whatever reason
(!drbd_state_is_stable(), resource suspended, ...),
we potentially deadlock the whole resource, as the worker
is needed for state changes and other things.

Create a dedicated retry workqueue for this instead.

Also make sure that inc_ap_bio()/dec_ap_bio() are properly paired,
even if do_retry() needs to retry itself,
in case __drbd_make_request() returns != 0.

Lars Ellenberg d5d7ebd422 drbd: on attach, enforce clean meta data
Detection of unclean shutdown has moved into user space.

The kernel code will, whenever it updates the meta data, mark it as
"unclean", and will refuse to attach to such unclean meta data.

"drbdadm up" now schedules "drbdmeta apply-al", which will apply
the activity log to the bitmap, and/or reinitialize it, if necessary,
as well as set a "clean" indicator flag.

This moves a bit code out of kernel space.
As a side effect, it also prevents some 8.3 module from accidentally
ignoring the 8.4 style activity log, if someone should downgrade,
whether on purpose, or accidentally because he changed kernel versions
without providing an 8.4 for the new kernel, and the new kernel comes
with in-tree 8.3.
