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.

Once a device is failed we really want to completely ignore it.
It should go away soon anyway.
In particular the presence of bad blocks on it should not cause us to
block as we won't be trying to write there anyway.
So as soon as we can check if a device is Faulty, do so and pretend
that it is already gone if it is Faulty.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
When we mark blocks as bad we need them to be acknowledged by the
metadata handler promptly.
For an in-kernel metadata handler that was already being done. But
for an external metadata handler we need to alert it of the change by
sending a notification through the sysfs file. This adds that
notification.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
Once a device is marked Faulty the badblocks - whether acknowledged or
not - become irrelevant. So they shouldn't cause the device to be
marked as Blocked.
Without this patch, a process might write "-blocked" to clear the
Blocked status, but while that will correctly fail the device, it
won't remove the apparent 'blocked' status.

When we are accessing an mddev via sysfs we know that the
mddev cannot disappear because it has an embedded kobj which
is refcounted by sysfs.
And we also take the mddev_lock.
However this is not enough.
The final mddev_put could have been called and the
mddev_delayed_delete is waiting for sysfs to let go so it can destroy
the kobj and mddev.
In this state there are a lot of changes that should not be attempted.
To to guard against this we:
- initialise mddev->all_mddevs in on last put so the state can be
easily detected.
- in md_attr_show and md_attr_store, check ->all_mddevs under
all_mddevs_lock and mddev_get the mddev if it still appears to
be active.
This means that if we get to sysfs as the mddev is being deleted we
will get -EBUSY.
rdev_attr_store and rdev_attr_show are similar but already have
sufficient protection. They check that rdev->mddev still points to
mddev after taking mddev_lock. As this is cleared before delayed
removal which can only be requested under the mddev_lock, this
ensure the rdev and mddev are still alive.

We like md devices to disappear when they really are not needed.
However it is not possible to tell from the current state whether it
is needed or not. We can only tell from recent history of changes.
In particular immediately after we create an md device it looks very
similar to immediately after we have finished with it.
So we always preserve a newly created md device until something
significant happens. This state is stored in 'hold_active'.
The normal case is to keep it until an ioctl happens, as that will
normally either activate it, or explicitly de-activate it. If it
doesn't then it was probably created by mistake and it is now time to
get rid of it.
We can also modify an array via sysfs (instead of via ioctl) and we
currently treat any change via sysfs like an ioctl as a sign that if
it now isn't more active, it should be destroyed.
However this is not appropriate as changes made via sysfs are more
gradual so we should look for a more definitive change.
So this patch only clears 'hold_active' from UNTIL_IOCTL to clear when
the array_state is changed via sysfs. Other changes via sysfs
are ignored.

Page attributes are set using __set_bit rather than set_bit as
it normally called under a spinlock so the extra atomicity is not
needed.
However there are two places where we might set or clear page
attributes without holding the spinlock.
So add the spinlock in those cases.
This might be the cause of occasional reports that bits a aren't
getting clear properly - theory is that BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING gets lost
when BITMAP_PAGE_NEEDWRITE is set or cleared. This is an
inconvenience, not a threat to data safety.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
All updates that occur under STRIPE_ACTIVE should be globally visible
when STRIPE_ACTIVE clears. test_and_set_bit() implies a barrier, but
clear_bit() does not.
This is suitable for 3.1-stable.

Rx byte count was off; instead use the hardware's count. Tx packet
count was counting pre-TSO packets; instead count on-the-wire packets.
Report hardware dropped frame count as rx_fifo_errors.
- The count of transmitted packets reported by the forcedeth driver
reports pre-TSO (TCP Segmentation Offload) packet counts and not the
count of the number of packets sent on the wire. This change fixes
the forcedeth driver to report the correct count. Fixed the code by
copying the count stored in the NIC H/W to the value reported by the
driver.
- Count rx_drop_frame errors as rx_fifo_errors:
We see a lot of rx_drop_frame errors if we disable the rx bottom-halves
for too long. Normally, rx_fifo_errors would be counted in this case.
The rx_drop_frame error count is private to forcedeth and is not
reported by ifconfig or sysfs. The rx_fifo_errors count is currently
unused in the forcedeth driver. It is reported by ifconfig as overruns.
This change reports rx_drop_frame errors as rx_fifo_errors.

This patch makes the cpuidle_states structure global (single copy)
instead of per-cpu. The statistics needed on per-cpu basis
by the governor are kept per-cpu. This simplifies the cpuidle
subsystem as state registration is done by single cpu only.
Having single copy of cpuidle_states saves memory. Rare case
of asymmetric C-states can be handled within the cpuidle driver
and architectures such as POWER do not have asymmetric C-states.
Having single/global registration of all the idle states,
dynamic C-state transitions on x86 are handled by
the boot cpu. Here, the boot cpu would disable all the devices,
re-populate the states and later enable all the devices,
irrespective of the cpu that would receive the notification first.

The cpuidle_device->prepare() mechanism causes updates to the
cpuidle_state[].flags, setting and clearing CPUIDLE_FLAG_IGNORE
to tell the governor not to chose a state on a per-cpu basis at
run-time. State demotion is now handled by the driver and it returns
the actual state entered. Hence, this mechanism is not required.
Also this removes per-cpu flags from cpuidle_state enabling
it to be made global.

Cpuidle governor only suggests the state to enter using the
governor->select() interface, but allows the low level driver to
override the recommended state. The actual entered state
may be different because of software or hardware demotion. Software
demotion is done by the back-end cpuidle driver and can be accounted
correctly. Current cpuidle code uses last_state field to capture the
actual state entered and based on that updates the statistics for the
state entered.
Ideally the driver enter routine should update the counters,
and it should return the state actually entered rather than the time
spent there. The generic cpuidle code should simply handle where
the counters live in the sysfs namespace, not updating the counters.
