Arnd Bergmann 0e3ef49eda md: use seconds granularity for error logging
The md code stores the exact time of the last error in the
last_read_error variable using a timespec structure. It only
ever uses the seconds portion of that though, so we can
use a scalar for it.

There won't be an overflow in 2038 here, because it already
used monotonic time and 32-bit is enough for that, but I've
decided to use time64_t for consistency in the conversion.

NeilBrown d787be4092 md: reduce the number of synchronize_rcu() calls when multiple devices fail.
Every time a device is removed with ->hot_remove_disk() a synchronize_rcu() call is made
which can delay several milliseconds in some case.
If lots of devices fail at once - as could happen with a large RAID10 where one set
of devices are removed all at once - these delays can add up to be very inconcenient.

As failure is not reversible we can check for that first, setting a
separate flag if it is found, and then all synchronize_rcu() once for
all the flagged devices.  Then ->hot_remove_disk() function can skip the
synchronize_rcu() step if the flag is set.

Guoqing Jiang bb8bf15bd6 md-cluster: fix deadlock issue when add disk to an recoverying array
Add a disk to an array which is performing recovery

it caused deadlock as follows.

						wait_event(mddev->sb_wait, !test_bit(MD_CHANGE_PENDING))

md_check_recovery is triggered by wakeup mddev->thread,
but it can't clear MD_CHANGE_PENDING flag since it can't
get lock which was held by md_attr_store already.

To solve the deadlock problem, we move "->resync_finish()"
from md_do_sync to md_reap_sync_thread (after md_update_sb),
also MD_HELD_RESYNC_LOCK is introduced since it is possible
that node can't get resync lock in md_do_sync.

Then we do not need to wait for MD_CHANGE_PENDING is cleared
or not since metadata should be updated after md_update_sb,
so just call resync_finish if MD_HELD_RESYNC_LOCK is set.

We also unified the code after skip label, since set PENDING
for non-clustered case should be harmless.

Dan Williams 1501efadc5 md/raid: only permit hot-add of compatible integrity profiles
It is not safe for an integrity profile to be changed while i/o is
in-flight in the queue.  Prevent adding new disks or otherwise online
spares to an array if the device has an incompatible integrity profile.

The original change to the blk_integrity_unregister implementation in
md, commmit c7bfced9a6 "md: suspend i/o during runtime
blk_integrity_unregister" introduced an immediate hang regression.

This policy of disallowing changes the integrity profile once one has
been established is shared with DM.

Here is an abbreviated log from a test run that:
1/ Creates a degraded raid1 with an integrity-enabled device (pmem0s) [   59.076127]
2/ Tries to add an integrity-disabled device (pmem1m) [   90.489209]

Deepa Dinamani 9ebc6ef188 drivers: md: use ktime_get_real_seconds()
get_seconds() API is not y2038 safe on 32 bit systems and the API
is deprecated. Replace it with calls to ktime_get_real_seconds()
API instead. Change mddev structure types to time64_t accordingly.

32 bit signed timestamps will overflow in the year 2038.

Change the user interface mdu_array_info_s structure timestamps:
ctime and utime values used in ioctls GET_ARRAY_INFO and
SET_ARRAY_INFO to unsigned int. This will extend the field to last
until the year 2106.
The long term plan is to get rid of ctime and utime values in
this structure as this information can be read from the on-disk
meta data directly.

Clamp the tim64_t timestamps to positive values with a max of U32_MAX
when returning from GET_ARRAY_INFO ioctl to accommodate above changes
in the data type of timestamps to unsigned int.

v0.90 on disk meta data uses u32 for maintaining time stamps.
So this will also last until year 2106.
Assumption is that the usage of v0.90 will be deprecated by
year 2106.

Timestamp fields in the on disk meta data for v1.0 version already
use 64 bit data types. Remove the truncation of the bits while
writing to or reading from these from the disk.

this cannot be done with md_reload_sb because it would deadlock with

This introduces a new flag, MD_RELOAD_SB, which if set, will reload the

Goldwyn Rodrigues 70bcecdb15 md-cluster: Improve md_reload_sb to be less error prone
md_reload_sb is too simplistic and it explicitly needs to determine
the changes made by the writing node. However, there are multiple areas
where a simple reload could fail.

Instead, read the superblock of one of the "good" rdevs and update
the necessary information:

- read the superblock into a newly allocated page, by temporarily
  swapping out rdev->sb_page and calling ->load_super.
- if that fails return
- if it succeeds, call check_sb_changes
  1. iterates over list of active devices and checks the matching
   dev_roles[] value.
   	If that is 'faulty', the device must be  marked as faulty
	 - call md_error to mark the device as faulty. Make sure
	   not to set CHANGE_DEVS and wakeup mddev->thread or else
	   it would initiate a resync process, which is the responsibility
	   of the "primary" node.
	 - clear the Blocked bit
	 - Call remove_and_add_spares() to hot remove the device.
	If the device is 'spare':
	 - call remove_and_add_spares() to get the number of spares
	   added in this operation.
	 - Reduce mddev->degraded to mark the array as not degraded.
  2. reset recovery_cp
- read the rest of the rdevs to update recovery_offset. If recovery_offset
  is equal to MaxSector, call spare_active() to set it In_sync

This required that recovery_offset be initialized to MaxSector, as
opposed to zero so as to communicate the end of sync for a rdev.

Tejun Heo 66114cad64 writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h
With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.

This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it.  c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly.  This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.

v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

NeilBrown 09314799e4 md: remove 'go_faster' option from ->sync_request()
This option is not well justified and testing suggests that
it hardly ever makes any difference.

The comment suggests there might be a need to wait for non-resync
activity indicated by ->nr_waiting, however raise_barrier()
already waits for all of that.

So just remove it to simplify reasoning about speed limiting.

This allows us to remove a 'FIXME' comment from raid5.c as that

Goldwyn Rodrigues 1aee41f637 Add new disk to clustered array
Algorithm:
1. Node 1 issues mdadm --manage /dev/mdX --add /dev/sdYY which issues
   ioctl(ADD_NEW_DISC with disc.state set to MD_DISK_CLUSTER_ADD)
2. Node 1 sends NEWDISK with uuid and slot number
3. Other nodes issue kobject_uevent_env with uuid and slot number
(Steps 4,5 could be a udev rule)
4. In userspace, the node searches for the disk, perhaps
   using blkid -t SUB_UUID=""
5. Other nodes issue either of the following depending on whether the disk
   was found:
   ioctl(ADD_NEW_DISK with disc.state set to MD_DISK_CANDIDATE and
	 disc.number set to slot number)
   ioctl(CLUSTERED_DISK_NACK)
6. Other nodes drop lock on no-new-devs (CR) if device is found
7. Node 1 attempts EX lock on no-new-devs
8. If node 1 gets the lock, it sends METADATA_UPDATED after unmarking the disk
   as SpareLocal
9. If not (get no-new-dev lock), it fails the operation and sends METADATA_UPDATED
10. Other nodes understand if the device is added or not by reading the superblock again after receiving the METADATA_UPDATED message.

DLM offers callbacks when a node fails and the lock remastery

1. recover_prep: called when DLM discovers a node is down
2. recover_slot: called when DLM identifies the node and recovery

3. recover_done: called when all nodes have completed recover_slot

recover_slot() and recover_done() are also called when the node joins
initially in order to inform the node with its slot number. These slot
numbers start from one, so we deduct one to make it start with zero

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

NeilBrown 5c675f83c6 md: make ->congested robust against personality changes.
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.

Also, the _irq variant hasn't been needed since 2.6.37 as it is

So:
  -rename write_lock to lock
  -document what it protects
  -remove _irq ... except in md_flush_request() as there

NeilBrown 8313b8e57f md: fix problem when adding device to read-only array with bitmap.
If an array is started degraded, and then the missing device
is found it can be re-added and a minimal bitmap-based recovery
will bring it fully up-to-date.

If the array is read-only a recovery would not be allowed.
But also if the array is read-only and the missing device was
present very recently, then there could be no need for any
recovery at all, so we simply include the device in the read-only
array without any recovery.

However... if the missing device was removed a little longer ago
it could be missing some updates, but if a bitmap is present it will
be conditionally accepted pending a bitmap-based update.  We don't
currently detect this case properly and will include that old
device into the read-only array with no recovery even though it really
needs a recovery.

This patch keeps track of whether a bitmap-based-recovery is really
needed or not in the new Bitmap_sync rdev flag.  If that is set,
then the device will not be added to a read-only array.

Tejun Heo 324a56e16e kernfs: s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/ and rename its friends accordingly
kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode.  Nothing can make the situation any worse.  Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

This patch performs the following renames.

* s/sysfs_elem_dir/kernfs_elem_dir/
* s/sysfs_elem_symlink/kernfs_elem_symlink/
* s/sysfs_elem_attr/kernfs_elem_file/
* s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/
* s/sd/kn/ in kernfs proper
* s/parent_sd/parent/
* s/target_sd/target/
* s/dir_sd/parent/
* s/to_sysfs_dirent()/rb_to_kn()/
* misc renames of local vars when they conflict with the above

Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up
modifying them.  All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial.  While we
can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent
around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs
proper, I don't think such workaround is called for.

This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.

- mic / gpio renames were missing.  Spotted by kbuild test robot.

Linus Torvalds 0910c0bdf7 Merge branch 'for-3.13/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block IO core updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the pull request for the core changes in the block layer for
  3.13.  It contains:

   - The new blk-mq request interface.

     This is a new and more scalable queueing model that marries the
     best part of the request based interface we currently have (which
     is fully featured, but scales poorly) and the bio based "interface"
     which the new drivers for high IOPS devices end up using because
     it's much faster than the request based one.

     The bio interface has no block layer support, since it taps into
     the stack much earlier.  This means that drivers end up having to
     implement a lot of functionality on their own, like tagging,
     timeout handling, requeue, etc.  The blk-mq interface provides all
     these.  Some drivers even provide a switch to select bio or rq and
     has code to handle both, since things like merging only works in
     the rq model and hence is faster for some workloads.  This is a
     huge mess.  Conversion of these drivers nets us a substantial code
     reduction.  Initial results on converting SCSI to this model even
     shows an 8x improvement on single queue devices.  So while the
     model was intended to work on the newer multiqueue devices, it has
     substantial improvements for "classic" hardware as well.  This code
     has gone through extensive testing and development, it's now ready
     to go.  A pull request is coming to convert virtio-blk to this
     model will be will be coming as well, with more drivers scheduled
     for 3.14 conversion.

   - Two blktrace fixes from Jan and Chen Gang.

   - A plug merge fix from Alireza Haghdoost.

   - Conversion of __get_cpu_var() from Christoph Lameter.

   - Fix for sector_div() with 64-bit divider from Geert Uytterhoeven.

   - A fix for a race between request completion and the timeout
     handling from Jeff Moyer.  This is what caused the merge conflict
     with blk-mq/core, in case you are looking at that.

   - A dm stacking fix from Mike Snitzer.

   - A code consolidation fix and duplicated code removal from Kent
     Overstreet.

   - A handful of block bug fixes from Mikulas Patocka, fixing a loop
     crash and memory corruption on blk cg.

   - Elevator switch bug fix from Tomoki Sekiyama.

  A heads-up that I had to rebase this branch.  Initially the immutable
  bio_vecs had been queued up for inclusion, but a week later, it became
  clear that it wasn't fully cooked yet.  So the decision was made to
  pull this out and postpone it until 3.14.  It was a straight forward
  rebase, just pruning out the immutable series and the later fixes of
  problems with it.  The rest of the patches applied directly and no
  further changes were made"

Tejun Heo 388975ccca sysfs: clean up sysfs_get_dirent()
The pre-existing sysfs interfaces which take explicit namespace
argument are weird in that they place the optional @ns in front of
@name which is contrary to the established convention.  For example,
we end up forcing vast majority of sysfs_get_dirent() users to do
sysfs_get_dirent(parent, NULL, name), which is silly and error-prone
especially as @ns and @name may be interchanged without causing
compilation warning.

This renames sysfs_get_dirent() to sysfs_get_dirent_ns() and swap the
positions of @name and @ns, and sysfs_get_dirent() is now a wrapper
around sysfs_get_dirent_ns().  This makes confusions a lot less
likely.

There are other interfaces which take @ns before @name.  They'll be
updated by following patches.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

v2: EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() wasn't updated leading to undefined symbol
    error on module builds.  Reported by build test robot.  Fixed.

NeilBrown 260fa034ef md: avoid deadlock when dirty buffers during md_stop.
When the last process closes /dev/mdX sync_blockdev will be called so
that all buffers get flushed.
So if it is then opened for the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to be sent there will
be nothing to flush.

However if we open /dev/mdX in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl just
moments before some other process which was writing closes their file
descriptor, then there won't be a 'last close' and the buffers might
not get flushed.

So do_md_stop() calls sync_blockdev().  However at this point it is
holding ->reconfig_mutex.  So if the array is currently 'clean' then
the writes from sync_blockdev() will not complete until the array
can be marked dirty and that won't happen until some other thread
can get ->reconfig_mutex.  So we deadlock.

We need to move the sync_blockdev() call to before we take
->reconfig_mutex.
However then some other thread could open /dev/mdX and write to it
after we call sync_blockdev() and before we actually stop the array.
This can leave dirty data in the page cache which is awkward.

So introduce new flag MD_STILL_CLOSED.  Set it before calling
sync_blockdev(), clear it if anyone does open the file, and abort the
STOP_ARRAY attempt if it gets set before we lock against further
opens.

It is still possible to get problems if you open /dev/mdX, write to
it, then issue the STOP_ARRAY ioctl.  Just don't do that.

NeilBrown 7a0a5355cb md: Don't test all of mddev->flags at once.
mddev->flags is mostly used to record if an update of the
metadata is needed.  Sometimes the whole field is tested
instead of just the important bits.  This makes it difficult
to introduce more state bits.

So replace all bare tests of mddev->flags with tests for the bits
that actually need testing.
