bcb97940f3 [PATCH] md: Change case of raid level reported in sys/mdX/md/level
I had thought that keeping the reported tail level clearly different
from the module name was a good idea, but I've changed my mind.

'raid5' is better and probably less confusing than 'RAID-5'.

defd94b754 [SCSI] seperate max_sectors from max_hw_sectors
- export __blk_put_request and blk_execute_rq_nowait
needed for async REQ_BLOCK_PC requests
- seperate max_hw_sectors and max_sectors for block/scsi_ioctl.c and
SG_IO bio.c helpers per Jens's last comments. Since block/scsi_ioctl.c SG_IO was
already testing against max_sectors and SCSI-ml was setting max_sectors and
max_hw_sectors to the same value this does not change any scsi SG_IO behavior. It only
prepares ll_rw_blk.c, scsi_ioctl.c and bio.c for when SCSI-ml begins to set
a valid max_hw_sectors for all LLDs. Today if a LLD does not set it
SCSI-ml sets it to a safe default and some LLDs set it to a artificial low
value to overcome memory and feedback issues.

Note: Since we now cap max_sectors to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS, which is 1024,
drivers that used to call blk_queue_max_sectors with a large value of
max_sectors will now see the fs requests capped to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS.

5036805be7 [PATCH] md: use correct size of raid5 stripe cache when measuring how full it is
The raid5 stripe cache was recently changed from fixed size (NR_STRIPES) to
variable size (conf->max_nr_stripes).  However there are two places that still
use the constant and as a result, reducing the size of the stripe cache can
result in a deadlock.

6aea114a72 [PATCH] md: fix --re-add for raid1 and raid6
If you have an array with a write-intent-bitmap, and you remove a device, then
re-add it, a full recovery isn't needed.  We detect a re-add by looking at
saved_raid_disk.  For raid1, it doesn't matter which disk it was, only whether
or not it was an active device.  The old code being removed set a value of
'mirror' which was then ignored, so it can go.  The changed code performs the
correct check.

For raid6, if there are two missing devices, make sure we chose the right slot
on --re-add rather than always the first slot.

22dfdf5212 [PATCH] md: improve read speed to raid10 arrays using 'far copies'
raid10 has two different layouts.  One uses near-copies (so multiple
copies of a block are at the same or similar offsets of different
devices) and the other uses far-copies (so multiple copies of a block
are stored a greatly different offsets on different devices).  The point
of far-copies is that it allows the first section (normally first half)
to be layed out in normal raid0 style, and thus provide raid0 sequential
read performance.

Unfortunately, the read balancing in raid10 makes some poor decisions
for far-copies arrays and you don't get the desired performance.  So
turn off that bad bit of read_balance for far-copies arrays.

With this patch, read speed of an 'f2' array is comparable with a raid0
with the same number of devices, though write speed is ofcourse still
very slow.

7692c5dd48 [PATCH] device-mapper raid1: drop mark_region spinlock fix
The spinlock region_lock is held while calling mark_region which can sleep.
Drop the spinlock before calling that function.

A region's state and inclusion in the clean list are altered by rh_inc and
rh_dec.  The state variable is set to RH_CLEAN in rh_dec, but only if
'pending' is zero.  It is set to RH_DIRTY in rh_inc, but not if it is already
so.  The changes to 'pending', the state, and the region's inclusion in the
clean list need to be atomicly.

0e56822d30 [PATCH] device-mapper: mirror log bitset fix
The linux bitset operators (test_bit, set_bit etc) work on arrays of "unsigned
long".  dm-log uses such bitsets but treats them as arrays of uint32_t, only
allocating and zeroing a multiple of 4 bytes (as 'clean_bits' is a uint32_t).

The patch below fixes this problem.

The problem is specific to 64-bit big endian machines such as s390x or ppc-64
and can prevent pvmove terminating.

In the simplest case, if "region_count" were (say) 30, then
bitset_size (below) would be 4 and bitset_uint32_count would be 1.
Thus the memory for this butset, after allocation and zeroing would
be
   0 0 0 0 X X X X
On a bigendian 64bit machine, bit 0 for this bitset is in the 8th
byte! (and every bit that dm-log would use would be in the X area).

   0 0 0 0 X X X X
                 ^
                 here

which hasn't been cleared properly.

As the dm-raid1 code only syncs and counts regions which have a 0 in the
'sync_bits' bitset, and only finishes when it has counted high enough, a large
number of 1's among those 'X's will cause the sync to not complete.

It is worth noting that the code uses the same bitsets for in-memory and
on-disk logs.  As these bitsets are host-endian and host-sized, this means
that they cannot safely be moved between computers with

c4cc66351a [PATCH] device-mapper: list_versions fix
In some circumstances the LIST_VERSIONS output is truncated because the size
calculation forgets about a 'uint32_t' in each structure - but the inclusion
of the whole of ALIGN_MASK frequently compensates for the omission.

This is a quick workaround to use an upper bound.  (The code ought to be fixed
to supply the actual size.)

Running 'dmsetup targets' may demonstrate the problem: when I run it, the last
line comes out as 'erro' instead of 'error'.  Consequently, 'lvcreate --type
error' doesn't work.

c0e485216d [PATCH] md: fix is_mddev_idle calculation now that disk/sector accounting happens when request completes
md needs to monitor the rate of requests to its devices when doing
resync/recovery so that it can back-off when there is non-resync IO.  It
does this by comparing resync IO, which it counts, with total IO which is
taken from disk_stats.

disk_stats were recently changed to account sectors when a request
completes instead of when it is queued.  This upsets md's calculations.

We could do the sync_io accounting at the end of requests too, but that has
problems.  If an underlying device is an md array, the accounting will
still be done when the request is submitted.  This could be changed for
some raid levels, but it cannot be changed for raid0 or linear without
substantial code changes.

So instead, we increase the error that is_mddev_idle allows, up to the
maximum amount of resync IO that can be in flight at any time.  The
calculation is current fragile as each personality as different limits for
in-flight resync.  This should be fixed up.

For now, this simple patch fixes the problem.

Increasing the error margin decreases the sensitivity to non-resync IO.  To
partially compensate for this, the time to wait when non-resync IO is
detected is increased so that less steady IO is required to keep the resync
at bay.

7eec314d75 [PATCH] md: improve 'scan_mode' and rename it to 'sync_action'
The current sync_action for an array can be one of

   idle  - nothing happening
   resync - reduncancy being recalcualted
   recover - missing device being recoverred to spare
   check   - user initiated check of redundancy
   repair  - like resync but user-initiated and ignores
             bitmap optimisation.

Each of these strings can also be written to the 'sync_action' file to cause
that action to happen (if appropriate).

While 'sync' is not technically correct, as a recovery is *not* a 'sync', I
think it is the most servicable word here.  Also 'action' is a strong word
than 'mode'.

f91de92ed6 [PATCH] md: allow md arrays to be started read-only (module parameter).
When an md array is started, the superblock will be written, and resync may
commense.  This is not good if you want to be completely read-only as, for
example, when preparing to resume from a suspend-to-disk image.

So introduce a module parameter "start_ro" which can be set
to '1' at boot, at module load, or via
  /sys/module/md_mod/parameters/start_ro

When this is set, new arrays get an 'auto-ro' mode, which disables all
internal io (superblock updates, resync, recovery) and is automatically
switched to 'rw' when the first write request arrives.

The array can be set to true 'ro' mode using 'mdadm -r' before the first
write request, or resync can be started without a write using 'mdadm -w'.

The intial code for making these devices appear in sysfs used dynamic
names, which would change whenever a hot-spare was swapped for a failed or
missing device.  This turns out not to be practical in sysfs for a number
of reasons.

This patch changes then naming of component devices to be based on the
result of 'bdevname'.  This is stable and should be unique.

a9701a3047 [PATCH] md: support BIO_RW_BARRIER for md/raid1
We can only accept BARRIER requests if all slaves handle
barriers, and that can, of course, change with time....

So we keep track of whether the whole array seems safe for barriers,
and also whether each individual rdev handles barriers.

We initially assumes barriers are OK.

When writing the superblock we try a barrier, and if that fails, we flag
things for no-barriers.  This will usually clear the flags fairly quickly.

If writing the superblock finds that BIO_RW_BARRIER is -ENOTSUPP, we need to
resubmit, so introduce function "md_super_wait" which waits for requests to
finish, and retries ENOTSUPP requests without the barrier flag.

When writing the real raid1, write requests which were BIO_RW_BARRIER but
which aresn't supported need to be retried.  So raid1d is enhanced to do this,
and when any bio write completes (i.e.  no retry needed) we remove it from the
r1bio, so that devices needing retry are easy to find.

We should hardly ever get -ENOTSUPP errors when writing data to the raid.
It should only happen if:
  1/ the device used to support BARRIER, but now doesn't.  Few devices
     change like this, though raid1 can!
or
  2/ the array has no persistent superblock, so there was no opportunity to
     pre-test for barriers when writing the superblock.

Two refinements to the 'attempt-overwrite-on-read-error' mechanism.
1/ If the array is read-only, don't attempt an over-write.
2/ If there are more than max_nr_stripes read errors on a device with
   no success, fail the drive.  This will make sure a dead
   drive will be eventually kicked even when we aren't trying
   to rewrite (which would normally kick a dead drive more quickly.

007583c925 [PATCH] md: change raid5 sysfs attribute to not create a new directory
There isn't really a need for raid5 attributes to be an a subdirectory,
so this patch moves them from
  /sys/block/mdX/md/raid5/attribute
to
  /sys/block/mdX/md/attribute

This suggests that all md personalities should co-operate about
namespace usage, but that shouldn't be a problem.

86e6ffdd24 [PATCH] md: extend md sysfs support to component devices.
Each device in an md array how has a corresponding
  /sys/block/mdX/md/devNN/
directory which can contain attributes.  Currently there is only 'state' which
summarises the state, nd 'super' which has a copy of the superblock, and
'block' which is a symlink to the block device.

Also, /sys/block/mdX/md/rdNN represents slot 'NN' in the array, and is a
symlink to the relevant 'devNN'.  Obviously spare devices do not have a slot
in the array, and so don't have such a symlink.

4e5314b56a [PATCH] md: better handling of readerrors with raid5.
This patch changes the behaviour of raid5 when it gets a read error.
Instead of just failing the device, it tried to find out what should have
been there, and writes it over the bad block.  For some media-errors, this
has a reasonable chance of fixing the error.  If the write succeeds, and a
subsequent read succeeds as well, raid5 decided the address is OK and
conitnues.

Instead of failing a drive on read-error, we attempt to re-write the block,
and then re-read.  If that all works, we allow the device to remain in the
array.

6985c43f39 [PATCH] Three one-liners in md.c
The main problem fixes is that in certain situations stopping md arrays may
take longer than you expect, or may require multiple attempts.  This would
only happen when resync/recovery is happening.

This patch fixes three vaguely related bugs.

1/ The recent change to use kthreads got the setting of the
   process name wrong.  This fixes it.
2/ The recent change to use kthreads lost the ability for
   md threads to be signalled with SIG_KILL.  This restores that.
3/ There is a long standing bug in that if:
    - An array needs recovery (onto a hot-spare) and
    - The recovery is being blocked because some other array being
       recovered shares a physical device and
    - The recovery thread is killed with SIG_KILL
   Then the recovery will appear to have completed with no IO being
   done, which can cause data corruption.
   This patch makes sure that incomplete recovery will be treated as
   incomplete.

Note that any kernel affected by bug 2 will not suffer the problem of bug
3, as the signal can never be delivered.  Thus the current 2.6.14-rc
kernels are not susceptible to data corruption.  Note also that if arrays
are shutdown (with "mdadm -S" or "raidstop") then the problem doesn't
occur.  It only happens if a SIGKILL is independently delivered as done by
'init' when shutting down.

485ef69ede [PATCH] device-mapper: Fix queue_if_no_path initialisation
When creating a multipath device, if the queue_if_no_path parameter is
specified it gets ignored.

While the queue_if_no_path variable is correctly set to 1, the
saved_queue_if_no_path gets set to 0.  When the device is subsequently made
live (resumed), the saved value (0) always overwrites the live value (1) so
the option *always* gets turned off.

The fix adds a parameter to the queue_if_no_path() function to indicate
whether the previous value should be preserved or not - if not, as when the
device is being set up, the saved value is set to the new value (1).

72626685dc [PATCH] md: add write-intent-bitmap support to raid5
Most awkward part of this is delaying write requests until bitmap updates have
been flushed.

To achieve this, we have a sequence number (seq_flush) which is incremented
each time the raid5 is unplugged.

If the raid thread notices that this has changed, it flushes bitmap changes,
and assigned the value of seq_flush to seq_write.

When a write request arrives, it is given the number from seq_write, and that
write request may not complete until seq_flush is larger than the saved seq
number.

We have a new queue for storing stripes which are waiting for a bitmap flush
and an extra flag for stripes to record if the write was 'degraded' and so
should not clear the a bit in the bitmap.

3178b0dbdf [PATCH] md: do not set mddev->bitmap until bitmap is fully initialised
When hot-adding a bitmap, bitmap_daemon_work could get called while the bitmap
is being created, so don't set mddev->bitmap until the bitmap is ready.

This requires freeing the bitmap inside bitmap_create if creation failed
part-way through.

15945fee6f [PATCH] md: support md/linear array with components greater than 2 terabytes.
linear currently uses division by the size of the smallest componenet device
to find which device a request goes to.  If that smallest device is larger
than 2 terabytes, then the division will not work on some systems.

So we introduce a pre-shift, and take care not to make the hash table too
large, much like the code in raid0.

Also get rid of conf->nr_zones, which is not needed.

4b6d287f62 [PATCH] md: add write-behind support for md/raid1
If a device is flagged 'WriteMostly' and the array has a bitmap, and the
bitmap superblock indicates that write_behind is allowed, then write_behind is
enabled for WriteMostly devices.

Write requests will be acknowledges as complete to the caller (via b_end_io)
when all non-WriteMostly devices have completed the write, but will not be
cleared from the bitmap until all devices complete.

This requires memory allocation to make a local copy of the data being
written.  If there is insufficient memory, then we fall-back on normal write
semantics.

   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   rh_dec()

device, it is mostly an inconvenience.  I'm pretty sure there is no risk of

e3b9703e27 [PATCH] md: yet another attempt to get bitmap-based resync to do the right thing in all cases...
Firstly, R1BIO_Degraded was being set in a number of places in the resync
code, but is never used there, so get rid of those settings.

Then: When doing a resync, we want to clear the bit in the bitmap iff the
array will be non-degraded when the sync has completed.  However the current
code would clear the bitmap if the array was non-degraded when the resync
*started*, which obviously isn't right (it is for 'resync' but not for
'recovery' - i.e.  rebuilding a failed drive).

This patch calculated 'still_degraded' and uses the to tell bitmap_start_sync
whether this sync should clear the corresponding bit.

This patch is an attempt to fix deadlocks discovered in the core dm.

The problems boil down to md->lock having to be held in too many places, so
I've split it into two: md->suspend_lock and md->io_lock.

suspend_lock is now held throughout dm_suspended() as well as dm_resume()
and dm_swap_table() so that these functions cannot run concurrently:
there's no requirement for that and it added complexity.

DMF_FS_LOCKED becomes redundant: DMF_SUSPENDED provides adequate

3e1d1d28d9 [PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

Due to the use of write-behind, it is possible for md to write a page to

7bfa19f274 [PATCH] md: allow md to update multiple superblocks in parallel.
currently, md updates all superblocks (one on each device) in series.  It
waits for one write to complete before starting the next.  This isn't a big
problem as superblock updates don't happen that often.

However it is neater to do it in parallel, and if the drives in the array have
gone to "sleep" after a period of idleness, then waking them is parallel is
faster (and someone else should be worrying about power drain).

Futher, we will need parallel superblock updates for a future patch which
keeps the intent-logging bitmap near the superblock.

Also remove the silly code that retired superblock updates 100 times.  This
simply never made sense.

3d310eb7b3 [PATCH] md: fix deadlock due to md thread processing delayed requests.
Before completing a 'write' the md superblock might need to be updated.
This is best done by the md_thread.

The current code schedules this up and queues the write request for later
handling by the md_thread.

However some personalities (Raid5/raid6) will deadlock if the md_thread
tries to submit requests to its own array.

So this patch changes things so the processes submitting the request waits
for the superblock to be written and then submits the request itself.

This fixes a recently-created deadlock in raid5/raid6

As the array-wide clean bit (in the superblock) is set more agressively than
the bits in the bitmap are cleared, it is possible to have an array which is
clean despite there being bits set in the bitmap.

These bits will currently never get cleared, as they can only be cleared by a
resync pass, which never happens.

No, when reading bits from disk, be aware of whether the whole array is known
to be in sync, and act accordingly.

32a7627cf3 [PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging
With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged
to a bitmap file.  Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set
before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all
sectors are complete.

After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise
resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated.

Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can
make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction.  This is not implemented in
this patch.

Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a
separate device.

The patch only provided infrastructure.  It does not update any personalities
to bitmap intent logging.

Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file.  This patch has minimal
impact on such arrays.

57afd89f98 [PATCH] md: improve the interface to sync_request
1/ change the return value (which is number-of-sectors synced)
 from 'int' to 'sector_t'.
 The number of sectors is usually easily small enough to fit
 in an int, but if resync needs to abort, it may want to return
 the total number of remaining sectors, which could be large.
 Also errors cannot be returned as negative numbers now, so use
 0 instead
2/ Add a 'skipped' return parameter to allow the array to report
 that it skipped the sectors.  This allows md to take this into account
 in the speed calculations.
 Currently there is no important skipping, but the bitmap-based-resync
 that is coming will use this.

06d91a5fe0 [PATCH] md: improve locking on 'safemode' and move superblock writes
When md marks the superblock dirty before a write, it calls
generic_make_request (to write the superblock) from within
generic_make_request (to write the first dirty block), which could cause

With this patch, the superblock write is always done by the helper thread, and
write request are delayed until that write completes.

Also, the locking around marking the array dirty and writing the superblock is
improved to avoid possible races.

fca4d848f0 [PATCH] md: merge md_enter_safemode into md_check_recovery
md_enter_safemode checks if it is time to mark the md superblock as 'clean'.
i.e.  if all writes have completed and a suitable delay has passed.

This is currently called from md_handle_safemode which in-turn is called
(almost) every time md_check_recovery is called, and from the end of
md_do_sync which causes the mddev->thread to run, which will always call
md_check_recovery as well.

So it doesn't need to be a separate function and fits quite well into
md_check_recovery.

The "almost" is because multipathd calls md_check_recovery but not
md_handle_safemode.  This is OK because the code from md_enter_safemode is a
no-op if mddev->safemode == 0, which it always is for a multipathd (providing
we don't allow it to be set to 2 on a signal...)

Also convert analyze_sbs to return void, and the value it returned was
always 0.

d28446fe2d [PATCH] md: close a small race in md thread deregistration
There is a tiny race when de-registering an MD thread, in that the thread
could disappear before it is set a SIGKILL, causing send_sig to have
problems.  

This is most easily closed by holding tasklist_lock between enabling the
thread to exit (setting ->run to NULL) and telling it to exit.

(akpm: ick.  Needs to use kthread API and stop using signals)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
