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.

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.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
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.

Allow userspace dm log implementations to register their log device so it
is no longer missing from the list of device dependencies.
When device mapper targets use a device they normally call dm_get_device
which includes it in the device list returned to userspace applications
such as LVM through the DM_TABLE_DEPS ioctl. Userspace log devices
don't use dm_get_device as userspace opens them so they are missing from
the list of dependencies.
This patch extends the DM_ULOG_CTR operation to allow userspace to
respond with the name of the log device (if appropriate) to be
registered via 'dm_get_device'. DM_ULOG_REQUEST_VERSION is incremented.
This is backwards compatible. If the kernel and userspace log server
have both been updated, the new information will be passed down to the
kernel and the device will be registered. If the kernel is new, but
the log server is old, the log server will not pass down any device
information and the kernel will simply bypass the device registration
as before. If the kernel is old but the log server is new, the log
server will see the old version number and not pass the device info.

Initial EXPERIMENTAL implementation of device-mapper thin provisioning
with snapshot support. The 'thin' target is used to create instances of
the virtual devices that are hosted in the 'thin-pool' target. The
thin-pool target provides data sharing among devices. This sharing is
made possible using the persistent-data library in the previous patch.
The main highlight of this implementation, compared to the previous
implementation of snapshots, is that it allows many virtual devices to
be stored on the same data volume, simplifying administration and
allowing sharing of data between volumes (thus reducing disk usage).
Another big feature is support for arbitrary depth of recursive
snapshots (snapshots of snapshots of snapshots ...). The previous
implementation of snapshots did this by chaining together lookup tables,
and so performance was O(depth). This new implementation uses a single
data structure so we don't get this degradation with depth.

This is a fairly serious bug in RAID10.
When a RAID10 array is degraded and a hot-spare is activated, the
spare does not take up the empty slot, but rather replaces the first
working device.
This is likely to make the array non-functional. It would normally
be possible to recover the data, but that would need care and is not
guaranteed.
This bug was introduced in commit
2bb77736ae
which first appeared in 3.1.

In 3.0 we changed the way recovery_disabled was handle so that instead
of testing against zero, we test an mddev-> value against a conf->
value.
Two problems:
1/ one place in raid1 was missed and still sets to '1'.
2/ We didn't explicitly set the conf-> value at array creation
time.
It defaulted to '0' just like the mddev value does so they
could appear equal and thus disable recovery.
This did not affect normal 'md' as it calls bind_rdev_to_array
which changes the mddev value. However the dmraid interface
doesn't call this and so doesn't change ->recovery_disabled; so at
array start all recovery is incorrectly disabled.
So initialise the 'conf' value to one less that the mddev value, so
the will only be the same when explicitly set that way.

This bug was introduced in 415e72d034
which was in 2.6.36.
There is a small window of time between when a device fails and when
it is removed from the array. During this time we might still read
from it, but we won't write to it - so it is possible that we could
read stale data.
We didn't need the test of 'Faulty' before because the test on
In_sync is sufficient. Since we started allowing reads from the early
part of non-In_sync devices we need a test on Faulty too.
This is suitable for any kernel from 2.6.36 onwards, though the patch
might need a bit of tweaking in 3.0 and earlier.

RAID1 and RAID10 handle write requests by queuing them for handling by
a separate thread. This is because when a write-intent-bitmap is
active we might need to update the bitmap first, so it is good to
queue a lot of writes, then do one big bitmap update for them all.
However writeback request devices to appear to be congested after a
while so it can make some guesstimate of throughput. The infinite
queue defeats that (note that RAID5 has already has a finite queue so
it doesn't suffer from this problem).
So impose a limit on the number of pending write requests. By default
it is 1024 which seems to be generally suitable. Make it configurable
via module option just in case someone finds a regression.

- Don't set it in bitmap_init_from_disk as bitmap_set_memory_bits
sets it when needed
- in bitmap_daemon_work, if we find a counter that is '1', but
need_sync is set, then set BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING again (it was

Two related problems:
1/ some error paths call "md_unregister_thread(mddev->thread)"
without subsequently clearing ->thread. A subsequent call
to mddev_unlock will try to wake the thread, and crash.
2/ Most calls to md_wakeup_thread are protected against the thread
disappeared either by:
- holding the ->mutex
- having an active request, so something else must be keeping
the array active.
However mddev_unlock calls md_wakeup_thread after dropping the
mutex and without any certainty of an active request, so the
->thread could theoretically disappear.
So we need a spinlock to provide some protections.
So change md_unregister_thread to take a pointer to the thread
pointer, and ensure that it always does the required locking, and
clears the pointer properly.

This should allow up to 4TB per device.
However we multiply this by 2 (to get sectors) before casting to a
larger type, so sizes above 2TB get truncated.
Also we allow rdev->sectors to be larger than 4TB, so it is possible
for the array to be resized larger than the metadata can handle.
So make sure rdev->sectors never exceeds 4TB when 0.90 metadata is in

A write can complete at two different places:
1/ when the last member-device write completes, through
raid10_end_write_request
2/ in make_request() when we remove the initial bias from ->remaining.
These two should do exactly the same thing and the comment says they
do, but they don't.
So factor the correct code out into a function and call it in both
places. This makes the code much more similar to RAID1.
The difference is only significant if there is an error, and they
usually take a while, so it is unlikely that there will be an error
already when make_request is completing, so this is unlikely to cause
real problems.

Waiting for a 'blocked' rdev to become unblocked in the raid5d thread
cannot work with internal metadata as it is the raid5d thread which
will clear the blocked flag.
This wasn't a problem in 3.0 and earlier as we only set the blocked
flag when external metadata was used then.
However we now set it always, so we need to be more careful.

Queue idling is used for the anticipation of immediate

Add the ability to parse and use metadata devices to dm-raid. Although
not strictly required, without the metadata devices, many features of
RAID are unavailable. They are used to store a superblock and bitmap.
The role, or position in the array, of each device must be recorded in
its superblock. This is to help with fault handling, array reshaping,
and sanity checks. RAID 4/5/6 devices must be loaded in a specific order:
in this way, the 'array_position' field helps validate the correctness
of the mapping when it is loaded. It can be used during reshaping to
identify which devices are added/removed. Fault handling is impossible
without this field. For example, when a device fails it is recorded in
the superblock. If this is a RAID1 device and the offending device is
removed from the array, there must be a way during subsequent array
assembly to determine that the failed device was the one removed. This
is done by correlating the 'array_position' field and the bit-field
variable 'failed_devices'.

If we write a full chunk in the snapshot, skip reading the origin device
because the whole chunk will be overwritten anyway.
This patch changes the snapshot write logic when a full chunk is written.
In this case:
1. allocate the exception
2. dispatch the bio (but don't report the bio completion to device mapper)
3. write the exception record
4. report bio completed
Callbacks must be done through the kcopyd thread, because callbacks must not
race with each other. So we create two new functions:
dm_kcopyd_prepare_callback: allocate a job structure and prepare the callback.
(This function must not be called from interrupt context.)
dm_kcopyd_do_callback: submit callback.
(This function may be called from interrupt context.)
Performance test (on snapshots with 4k chunk size):

Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate
whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge
function returns. When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots
which can split them if necessary. Snapshot I/O may be significantly
fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance.
Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size
if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't
provide a merge function. After the patch, dm_set_device_limits
restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge
function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't
provide a merge function.
The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge
function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be
remapped. Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can
now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge
function. Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes,
it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the
filesystem on snapshot store.
If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function
(such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.

For normal kernel pages, CPU cache is synchronized by the dma layer.
However, this is not done for pages allocated with vmalloc. If we do I/O
to/from vmallocated pages, we must synchronize CPU cache explicitly.
Prior to doing I/O on vmallocated page we must call
flush_kernel_vmap_range to flush dirty cache on the virtual address.
After finished read we must call invalidate_kernel_vmap_range to
invalidate cache on the virtual address, so that accesses to the virtual
address return newly read data and not stale data from CPU cache.

We already attempt to fix read errors found during normal IO

It is best to try to repair them at any time they are found,

be corrected by over-writing with good data.
If both (all) devices have known bad blocks in the sync section we

Also if we hit a read error during recovery we don't try to fix it.

2/ read submission must be ready to issue multiple reads to

could mean that a single large read cannot be served by any one
device, but can still be served by the array.
This requires keeping count of the number of outstanding requests

There are two times that we might read in raid5:
1/ when a read request fits within a chunk on a single
working device.
In this case, if there is any bad block in the range of
the read, we simply fail the cache-bypass read and
perform the read though the stripe cache.
2/ when reading into the stripe cache. In this case we
mark as failed any device which has a bad block in that
strip (1 page wide).
Note that we will both avoid reading and avoid writing.
This is correct (as we will never read from the block, there
is no point writing), but not optimal (as writing could 'fix'
the error) - that will be addressed later.
If we have not seen any write errors on the device yet, we treat a bad
block like a recent read error. This will encourage an attempt to fix
the read error which will either generate a write error, or will
ensure good data is stored there. We don't yet forget the bad block
in that case. That comes later.
Now that we honour bad blocks when reading we can allow devices with
bad blocks into the array.

It is only safe to choose not to write to a bad block if that bad
block is safely recorded in metadata - i.e. if it has been
'acknowledged'.
If it hasn't we need to wait for the acknowledgement.
We support that using rdev->blocked wait and
md_wait_for_blocked_rdev by introducing a new device flag
'BlockedBadBlock'.
This flag is only advisory.
It is cleared whenever we acknowledge a bad block, so that a waiter
can re-check the particular bad blocks that it is interested it.
It should be set by a caller when they find they need to wait.
This (set after test) is inherently racy, but as
md_wait_for_blocked_rdev already has a timeout, losing the race will
have minimal impact.
When we clear "Blocked" was also clear "BlockedBadBlocks" incase it
was set incorrectly (see above race).
We also modify the way we manage 'Blocked' to fit better with the new
handling of 'BlockedBadBlocks' and to make it consistent between
externally managed and internally managed metadata. This requires
that each raidXd loop checks if the metadata needs to be written and
triggers a write (md_check_recovery) if needed. Otherwise a queued
write request might cause raidXd to wait for the metadata to write,
and only that thread can write it.
Before writing metadata, we set FaultRecorded for all devices that
are Faulty, then after writing the metadata we clear Blocked for any
device for which the Fault was certainly Recorded.
The 'faulty' device flag now appears in sysfs if the device is faulty
*or* it has unacknowledged bad blocks. So user-space which does not
understand bad blocks can continue to function correctly.
User space which does, should not assume a device is faulty until it
sees the 'faulty' flag, and then sees the list of unacknowledged bad
blocks is empty.

When we get a read error during recovery, RAID10 previously
arranged for the recovering device to appear to fail so that
the recovery stops and doesn't restart. This is misleading and wrong.
Instead, make use of the new recovery_disabled handling and mark

Add appropriate checks in add_disk and remove_disk so that devices
are removed and not re-added when recovery is disabled.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
If we hit a read error while recovering a mirror, we want to abort the
recovery without necessarily failing the disk - as having a disk this
a read error is better than not having an array at all.
Currently this is managed with a per-array flag "recovery_disabled"
and is only implemented for RAID1. For RAID10 we will need finer
grained control as we might want to disable recovery for individual
devices separately.
So push more of the decision making into the personality.
'recovery_disabled' is now a 'cookie' which is copied when the
personality want to disable recovery and is changed when a device is
added to the array as this is used as a trigger to 'try recovery
again'.
This will allow RAID10 to get the control that it needs.

running, the mempool may overflow and mempool allocations may start
blocking until another entry is freed to the mempool. Because the same
thread is used to free entries to the mempool and allocate entries from
the mempool, this may result in a deadlock.
This patch changes it so that one mempool entry contains all 9 "struct
kcopyd_job" required to fulfill the whole request. The allocation is
done only once in dm_kcopyd_copy and no further mempool allocations are
done during request processing.
If dm_kcopyd_copy is not run in the completion thread, this
implementation is deadlock-free.
MIN_JOBS needs reducing accordingly and we've chosen to reduce it
further to 8.

Don't split SUB_JOB_SIZE jobs
If the job size equals SUB_JOB_SIZE, there is no point in splitting it.
Splitting it just unnecessarily wastes time, because the split job size
is SUB_JOB_SIZE too.

This patch adds a check that a block device has a request function
defined before it is used. Otherwise, misconfiguration can cause an oops.
Because we are allowing devices with zero size e.g. an offline multipath
device as in commit 2cd54d9bed
("dm: allow offline devices") there needs to be an additional check
to ensure devices are initialised. Some block devices, like a loop
device without a backing file, exist but have no request function.
Reproducer is trivial: dm-mirror on unbound loop device
(no backing file on loop devices)
dmsetup create x --table "0 8 mirror core 2 8 sync 2 /dev/loop0 0 /dev/loop1 0"
and mirror resync will immediatelly cause OOps.

The sysfs attribute 'resync_start' (known internally as recovery_cp),
records where a resync is up to. A value of 0 means the array is
not known to be in-sync at all. A value of MaxSector means the array
is believed to be fully in-sync.
When the size of member devices of an array (RAID1,RAID4/5/6) is
increased, the array can be increased to match. This process sets
resync_start to the old end-of-device offset so that the new part of
the array gets resynced.
However with RAID1 (and RAID6) a resync is not technically necessary
and may be undesirable. So it would be good if the implied resync
after the array is resized could be avoided.
So: change 'resync_start' so the value can be changed while the array
is active, and as a precaution only allow it to be changed while
resync/recovery is 'frozen'. Changing it once resync has started is
not going to be useful anyway.
This allows the array to be resized without a resync by:
write 'frozen' to 'sync_action'
write new size to 'component_size' (this will set resync_start)
write 'none' to 'resync_start'
write 'idle' to 'sync_action'.
Also slightly improve some tests on recovery_cp when resizing
raid1/raid5. Now that an arbitrary value could be set we should be
more careful in our tests.

When a loop ends with an 'if' with a large body, it is neater
to make the if 'continue' on the inverse condition, and then
the body is indented less.
Apply this pattern 3 times, and wrap some other long lines.

Currently the rdev on which a read error happened could be removed
before we perform the fix_error handling. This requires extra tests
for NULL.
So delay the rdev_dec_pending call until after the call to
fix_read_error so that we can be sure that the rdev still exists.
This allows an 'if' clause to be removed so the body gets re-indented
back one level.

The current handling and freeing of these pages is a bit fragile.
We only keep the list of allocated pages in each bio, so we need to
still have a valid bio when freeing the pages, which is a bit clumsy.
So simply store the allocated page list in the r1_bio so it can easily
be found and freed when we are finished with the r1_bio.

If we get a read error during resync/recovery we current repeat with
single-page reads to find out just where the error is, and possibly
read each page from a different device.
With check/repair we don't currently do that, we just fail.
However it is possible that while all devices fail on the large 64K
read, we might be able to satisfy each 4K from one device or another.
So call fix_sync_read_error before process_checks to maximise the
chance of finding good data and writing it out to the devices with
read errors.
For this to work, we need to set the 'uptodate' flags properly after
fix_sync_read_error has succeeded.

These changes are mostly cosmetic:
1/ change mddev->raid_disks to conf->raid_disks because the later is
technically safer, though in current practice it doesn't matter in
this particular context.
2/ Rearrange two for / if loops to have an early 'continue' so the
body of the 'if' doesn't need to be indented so much.

If a bitmap is found to be 'stale' the events_cleared value
is set to match 'events'.
However if the array is degraded this does not get stored on disk.
This can subsequently lead to incorrect behaviour.
So change bitmap_update_sb to always update events_cleared in the
superblock from the known events_cleared.
For neatness also set ->state from ->flags.
This requires updating ->state whenever we update ->flags, which makes
sense anyway.
This is suitable for any active -stable release.

The 'add_new_disk' ioctl can be used to add a device either as a
spare, or as an active disk that just needs to be resynced based on
write-intent-bitmap information (re-add)
Currently if a re-add is requested but fails we add as a spare
instead. This makes it impossible for user-space to check for
failure.
So change to require that a re-add attempt will either succeed or
completely fail. User-space can then decide what to do next.

There is a race when creating an md device by opening /dev/mdXX.
If two processes do this at much the same time they will follow the
call path
__blkdev_get -> get_gendisk -> kobj_lookup
The first will call
-> md_probe -> md_alloc -> add_disk -> blk_register_region
and the race happens when the second gets to kobj_lookup after
add_disk has called blk_register_region but before it returns to
md_alloc.
In the case the second will not call md_probe (as the probe is already
done) but will get a handle on the gendisk, return to __blkdev_get
which will then call md_open (via the ->open) pointer.
As mddev->gendisk hasn't been set yet, md_open will think something is
wrong an return with ERESTARTSYS.
This can loop endlessly while the first thread makes no progress
through add_disk. Nothing is blocking it, but due to scheduler
behaviour it doesn't get a turn.
So this is essentially a live-lock.
We fix this by simply moving the assignment to mddev->gendisk before
the call the add_disk() so md_open doesn't get confused.
Also move blk_queue_flush earlier because add_disk should be as late
as possible.
To make sure that md_open doesn't complete until md_alloc has done all
that is needed, we take mddev->open_mutex during the last part of
md_alloc. md_open will wait for this.
This can cause a lock-up on boot so Cc:ing for stable.
For 2.6.36 and earlier a different patch will be needed as the
'blk_queue_flush' call isn't there.

A raid0 array doesn't set 'dev_sectors' as each device might
contribute a different number of sectors.
So when converting to a RAID4 or RAID5 we need to set dev_sectors
as they need the number.
We have already verified that in fact all devices do contribute
the same number of sectors, so use that number.

We previously needed to set ->queue_lock to match the raid5
device_lock so we could safely use queue_flag_* operations (e.g. for
