36d1c6476b md/raid6: move the spare page to a percpu allocation
In preparation for asynchronous handling of raid6 operations move the
spare page to a percpu allocation to allow multiple simultaneous
synchronous raid6 recovery operations.

Make this allocation cpu hotplug aware to maximize allocation
efficiency.

80ffb3ccea Fix new incorrect error return from do_md_stop.
Recent commit c8c00a6915
changed the exit paths in do_md_stop and was not quite
careful enough.  There is one path were 'err' now needs
to be cleared but it isn't.
So setting an array to readonly (with mdadm --readonly) will
work, but will incorrectly report and error: ENXIO.

4d484a4a7a md: allow upper limit for resync/reshape to be set when array is read-only
Normally we only allow the upper limit for a reshape to be decreased
when the array not performing a sync/recovery/reshape, otherwise there
could be races.  But if an array is part-way through a reshape when it
is assembled the reshape is started immediately leaving no window
to set an upper bound.

If the array is started read-only, the reshape will be suspended until
the array becomes writable, so that provides a window during which it
is perfectly safe to reduce the upper limit of a reshape.

So: allow the upper limit (sync_max) to be reduced even if the reshape
thread is running, as long as the array is still read-only.

67ac6011db md/raid5: allow new reshape modes to be restarted in the middle.
md/raid5 doesn't allow a reshape to restart if it involves writing
over the same part of disk that it would be reading from.
This happens at the beginning of a reshape that increases the number
of devices, at the end of a reshape that decreases the number of
devices, and continuously for a reshape that does not change the
number of devices.

The current code is correct for the "increase number of devices"
case as the critical section at the start is handled by userspace
performing a backup.

It does not work for reducing the number of devices, or the
no-change case.
For 'reducing', we need to invert the test.  For no-change we cannot
really be sure things will be safe, so simply require the array
to be read-only, which is how the user-space code which carefully
starts such arrays works.

51d5668cb2 md: never advance 'events' counter by more than 1.
When assembling arrays, md allows two devices to have different event
counts as long as the difference is only '1'.  This is to cope with
a system failure between updating the metadata on two difference
devices.

However there are currently times when we update the event count by
2.  This was done to keep the event count even when the array is clean
and odd when it is dirty, which allows us to avoid writing common
update to spare devices and so allow those spares to go to sleep.

This is bad for the above reason.  So change it to never increase by
two.  This means that the alignment between 'odd/even' and
'clean/dirty' might take a little longer to attain, but that is only a
small cost.  The spares will get a few more updates but that will
still be spared (;-) most updates and can still go to sleep.

Prior to this patch there was a small chance that after a crash an
array would fail to assemble due to the overly large event count
mismatch.

c8c00a6915 Remove deadlock potential in md_open
A recent commit:
  commit 449aad3e25

introduced the possibility of an A-B/B-A deadlock between
bd_mutex and reconfig_mutex.

__blkdev_get holds bd_mutex while calling md_open which takes
   reconfig_mutex,
do_md_run is always called with reconfig_mutex held, and it now
   takes bd_mutex in the call the revalidate_disk.

This potential deadlock was not caught by lockdep due to the
use of mutex_lock_interruptible_nexted which was introduced
by
   commit d63a5a74de
do avoid a warning of an impossible deadlock.

It is quite possible to split reconfig_mutex in to two locks.
One protects the array data structures while it is being
reconfigured, the other ensures that an array is never even partially
open while it is being deactivated.
In particular, the second lock prevents an open from completing
between the time when do_md_stop checks if there are any active opens,
and the time when the array is either set read-only, or when ->pers is
set to NULL.  So we can be certain that no IO is in flight as the
array is being destroyed.

So create a new lock, open_mutex, just to ensure exclusion between
'open' and 'stop'.

This avoids the deadlock and also avoids the lockdep warning mentioned
in commit d63a5a74d

As revalidate_disk calls check_disk_size_change, it will cause
any capacity change of a gendisk to be propagated to the blockdev

i_size_write.

Also add a call to revalidate_disk in do_md_run and a few other places
where the gendisk capacity is changed.

64bd660b51 md: allow raid5_quiesce to work properly when reshape is happening.
The ->quiesce method is not supposed to stop resync/recovery/reshape,
just normal IO.
But in raid5 we don't have a way to know which stripes are being
used for normal IO and which for resync etc, so we need to wait for
all stripes to be idle to be sure that all writes have completed.

However reshape keeps at least some stripe busy for an extended period
of time, so a call to raid5_quiesce can block for several seconds
needlessly.
So arrange for reshape etc to pause briefly while raid5_quiesce is
trying to quiesce the array so that the active_stripes count can
drop to zero.

If it grows enough to require an extra sector of storage,

ac5e7113e7 md: Push down data integrity code to personalities.
This patch replaces md_integrity_check() by two new public functions:
md_integrity_register() and md_integrity_add_rdev() which are both
personality-independent.

md_integrity_register() is called from the ->run and ->hot_remove
methods of all personalities that support data integrity.  The
function iterates over the component devices of the array and
determines if all active devices are integrity capable and if their
profiles match. If this is the case, the common profile is registered
for the mddev via blk_integrity_register().

The second new function, md_integrity_add_rdev() is called from the
->hot_add_disk methods, i.e. whenever a new device is being added
to a raid array. If the new device does not support data integrity,
or has a profile different from the one already registered, data
integrity for the mddev is disabled.

For raid0 and linear, only the call to md_integrity_register() from
the ->run method is necessary.

a732c207d1 dm: remove queue next_ordered workaround for barriers
This patch removes DM's bio-based vs request-based conditional setting
of next_ordered.  For bio-based DM the next_ordered check is no longer a
concern (as that check is now in the __make_request path).  For
request-based DM the default of QUEUE_ORDERED_NONE is now appropriate.

bio-based DM was changed to work-around the previously misplaced
next_ordered check with this commit:
99360b4c18

request-based DM does not yet support barriers but reacted to the above
bio-based DM change with this commit:
5d67aa2366

The above changes are no longer needed given Neil Brown's recent fix to
put the next_ordered check in the __make_request path:

wakeup_mirrord (for immediate processing) or delayed_wake (for delayed

This patch restores stacking ability to the block layer integrity
infrastructure by creating a set of dedicated bip slabs.  Each bip slab
has an embedded bio_vec array at the end.  This cuts down on memory
allocations and also simplifies the code compared to the original bvec
version.  Only the largest bip slab is backed by a mempool.  The pool is
contained in the bio_set so stacking drivers can ensure forward
progress.

User space can set various limits on an md array so that resync waits
when it gets to a certain point, or so that I/O is blocked for a short
while.
When md is waiting against one of these limit, it should use an
interruptible wait so as not to add to the load average, and so are
not to trigger a warning if the wait goes on for too long.

f40c67f0f7 dm mpath: change to be request based
This patch converts dm-multipath target to request-based from bio-based.

Basically, the patch just converts the I/O unit from struct bio
to struct request.
In the course of the conversion, it also changes the I/O queueing
mechanism.  The change in the I/O queueing is described in details
as follows.

I/O queueing mechanism change
-----------------------------
In I/O submission, map_io(), there is no mechanism change from
bio-based, since the clone request is ready for retry as it is.
However, in I/O complition, do_end_io(), there is a mechanism change
from bio-based, since the clone request is not ready for retry.

In do_end_io() of bio-based, the clone bio has all needed memory
for resubmission.  So the target driver can queue it and resubmit
it later without memory allocations.
The mechanism has almost no overhead.

On the other hand, in do_end_io() of request-based, the clone request
doesn't have clone bios, so the target driver can't resubmit it
as it is.  To resubmit the clone request, memory allocation for
clone bios is needed, and it takes some overheads.
To avoid the overheads just for queueing, the target driver doesn't
queue the clone request inside itself.
Instead, the target driver asks dm core for queueing and remapping
the original request of the clone request, since the overhead for
queueing is just a freeing memory for the clone request.

As a result, the target driver doesn't need to record/restore
the information of the original request for resubmitting
the clone request.  So dm_bio_details in dm_mpath_io is removed.

multipath_busy()
---------------------
The target driver returns "busy", only when the following case:
  o The target driver will map I/Os, if map() function is called
  and
  o The mapped I/Os will wait on underlying device's queue due to
    their congestions, if map() function is called now.

In other cases, the target driver doesn't return "busy".
Otherwise, dm core will keep the I/Os and the target driver can't
do what it wants.
(e.g. the target driver can't map I/Os now, so wants to kill I/Os.)

e6ee8c0b76 dm: enable request based option
This patch enables request-based dm.

o Request-based dm and bio-based dm coexist, since there are
  some target drivers which are more fitting to bio-based dm.
  Also, there are other bio-based devices in the kernel
  (e.g. md, loop).
  Since bio-based device can't receive struct request,
  there are some limitations on device stacking between
  bio-based and request-based.

                     type of underlying device
                   bio-based      request-based
   ----------------------------------------------
    bio-based         OK                OK
    request-based     --                OK

  The device type is recognized by the queue flag in the kernel,
  so dm follows that.

o The type of a dm device is decided at the first table binding time.
  Once the type of a dm device is decided, the type can't be changed.

o Mempool allocations are deferred to at the table loading time, since
  mempools for request-based dm are different from those for bio-based
  dm and needed mempool type is fixed by the type of table.

o Currently, request-based dm supports only tables that have a single
  target.  To support multiple targets, we need to support request
  splitting or prevent bio/request from spanning multiple targets.
  The former needs lots of changes in the block layer, and the latter
  needs that all target drivers support merge() function.
  Both will take a time.

cec47e3d4a dm: prepare for request based option
This patch adds core functions for request-based dm.

When struct mapped device (md) is initialized, md->queue has
an I/O scheduler and the following functions are used for
request-based dm as the queue functions:
    make_request_fn: dm_make_request()
    pref_fn:         dm_prep_fn()
    request_fn:      dm_request_fn()
    softirq_done_fn: dm_softirq_done()
    lld_busy_fn:     dm_lld_busy()
Actual initializations are done in another patch (PATCH 2).

Below is a brief summary of how request-based dm behaves, including:
  - making request from bio
  - cloning, mapping and dispatching request
  - completing request and bio
  - suspending md
  - resuming md

  bio to request
  ==============
  md->queue->make_request_fn() (dm_make_request()) calls __make_request()
  for a bio submitted to the md.
  Then, the bio is kept in the queue as a new request or merged into
  another request in the queue if possible.

  Cloning and Mapping
  ===================
  Cloning and mapping are done in md->queue->request_fn() (dm_request_fn()),
  when requests are dispatched after they are sorted by the I/O scheduler.

  dm_request_fn() checks busy state of underlying devices using
  target's busy() function and stops dispatching requests to keep them
  on the dm device's queue if busy.
  It helps better I/O merging, since no merge is done for a request
  once it is dispatched to underlying devices.

  Actual cloning and mapping are done in dm_prep_fn() and map_request()
  called from dm_request_fn().
  dm_prep_fn() clones not only request but also bios of the request
  so that dm can hold bio completion in error cases and prevent
  the bio submitter from noticing the error.
  (See the "Completion" section below for details.)

  After the cloning, the clone is mapped by target's map_rq() function
    and inserted to underlying device's queue using
    blk_insert_cloned_request().

  Completion
  ==========
  Request completion can be hooked by rq->end_io(), but then, all bios
  in the request will have been completed even error cases, and the bio
  submitter will have noticed the error.
  To prevent the bio completion in error cases, request-based dm clones
  both bio and request and hooks both bio->bi_end_io() and rq->end_io():
      bio->bi_end_io(): end_clone_bio()
      rq->end_io():     end_clone_request()

  Summary of the request completion flow is below:
  blk_end_request() for a clone request
    => blk_update_request()
       => bio->bi_end_io() == end_clone_bio() for each clone bio
          => Free the clone bio
          => Success: Complete the original bio (blk_update_request())
             Error:   Don't complete the original bio
    => blk_finish_request()
       => rq->end_io() == end_clone_request()
          => blk_complete_request()
             => dm_softirq_done()
                => Free the clone request
                => Success: Complete the original request (blk_end_request())
                   Error:   Requeue the original request

  end_clone_bio() completes the original request on the size of
  the original bio in successful cases.
  Even if all bios in the original request are completed by that
  completion, the original request must not be completed yet to keep
  the ordering of request completion for the stacking.
  So end_clone_bio() uses blk_update_request() instead of
  blk_end_request().
  In error cases, end_clone_bio() doesn't complete the original bio.
  It just frees the cloned bio and gives over the error handling to
  end_clone_request().

  end_clone_request(), which is called with queue lock held, completes
  the clone request and the original request in a softirq context
  (dm_softirq_done()), which has no queue lock, to avoid a deadlock
  issue on submission of another request during the completion:
      - The submitted request may be mapped to the same device
      - Request submission requires queue lock, but the queue lock
        has been held by itself and it doesn't know that

  The clone request has no clone bio when dm_softirq_done() is called.
  So target drivers can't resubmit it again even error cases.
  Instead, they can ask dm core for requeueing and remapping
  the original request in that cases.

  suspend
  =======
  Request-based dm uses stopping md->queue as suspend of the md.
  For noflush suspend, just stops md->queue.

  For flush suspend, inserts a marker request to the tail of md->queue.
  And dispatches all requests in md->queue until the marker comes to
  the front of md->queue.  Then, stops dispatching request and waits
  for the all dispatched requests to complete.
  After that, completes the marker request, stops md->queue and
  wake up the waiter on the suspend queue, md->wait.

  resume
  ======
  Starts md->queue.

f5db4af466 dm raid1: add userspace log
This patch contains a device-mapper mirror log module that forwards
requests to userspace for processing.

The structures used for communication between kernel and userspace are
located in include/linux/dm-log-userspace.h.  Due to the frequency,
diversity, and 2-way communication nature of the exchanges between
kernel and userspace, 'connector' was chosen as the interface for
communication.

The first log implementations written in userspace - "clustered-disk"
and "clustered-core" - support clustered shared storage.   A userspace
daemon (in the LVM2 source code repository) uses openAIS/corosync to
process requests in an ordered fashion with the rest of the nodes in the
cluster so as to prevent log state corruption.  Other implementations
with no association to LVM or openAIS/corosync, are certainly possible.

(Imagine if two machines are writing to the same region of a mirror.
They would both mark the region dirty, but you need a cluster-aware
entity that can handle properly marking the region clean when they are
done.  Otherwise, you might clear the region when the first machine is
done, not the second.)

754c5fc7eb dm: calculate queue limits during resume not load
Currently, device-mapper maintains a separate instance of 'struct
queue_limits' for each table of each device.  When the configuration of
a device is to be changed, first its table is loaded and this structure
is populated, then the device is 'resumed' and the calculated
queue_limits are applied.

This places restrictions on how userspace may process related devices,
where it is often advantageous to 'load' tables for several devices
at once before 'resuming' them together.  As the new queue_limits
only take effect after the 'resume', if they are changing and one
device uses another, the latter must be 'resumed' before the former
may be 'loaded'.

This patch moves the calculation of these queue_limits out of
the 'load' operation into 'resume'.  Since we are no longer
pre-calculating this struct, we no longer need to maintain copies
within our dm structs.

dm_set_device_limits() now passes the 'start' of the device's
data area (aka pe_start) as the 'offset' to blk_stack_limits().

init_valid_queue_limits() is replaced by blk_set_default_limits().

Copy the table's queue_limits to the DM device's request_queue.  This
properly initializes the queue's topology limits and also avoids having
to track the evolution of 'struct queue_limits' in

Also fixes a bug that was introduced in dm_table_set_restrictions() via
commit ae03bf639a.  In addition to
establishing 'bounce_pfn' in the queue's limits blk_queue_bounce_limit()
also performs an allocation to setup the ISA DMA pool.  This allocation
resulted in "sleeping function called from invalid context" when called
from dm_table_set_restrictions().

60935eb21d dm ioctl: support cookies for udev
Add support for passing a 32 bit "cookie" into the kernel with the
DM_SUSPEND, DM_DEV_RENAME and DM_DEV_REMOVE ioctls.  The (unsigned)
value of this cookie is returned to userspace alongside the uevents
issued by these ioctls in the variable DM_COOKIE.

This means the userspace process issuing these ioctls can be notified
by udev after udev has completed any actions triggered.

To minimise the interface extension, we pass the cookie into the
kernel in the event_nr field which is otherwise unused when calling
these ioctls.  Incrementing the version number allows userspace to
determine in advance whether or not the kernel supports the cookie.
If the kernel does support this but userspace does not, there should
be no impact as the new variable will just get ignored.

The service time is estimated by dividing the in-flight I/O size

02ab823fd1 dm mpath: add start_io and nr_bytes to path selectors
This patch makes two additions to the dm path selector interface for
dynamic load balancers:
  o a new hook, start_io()
  o a new parameter 'nr_bytes' to select_path()/start_io()/end_io()
    to pass the size of the I/O

start_io() is called when a target driver actually submits I/O
to the selected path.
Path selectors can use it to start accounting of the I/O.
(e.g. counting the number of in-flight I/Os.)
The start_io hook is based on the patch posted by Stefan Bader:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2005-October/msg00050.html

nr_bytes, the size of the I/O, is so path selectors can take the
size of the I/O into account when deciding which path to use.
dm-service-time uses it to estimate service time, for example.
(Added the nr_bytes member to dm_mpath_io instead of using existing
 details.bi_size, since request-based dm patch deletes it.)

32a926da5a dm: always hold bdev reference
Fix a potential deadlock when creating multiple snapshots by holding a
reference to struct block_device for the whole lifecycle of every dm
device instead of obtaining it independently at each point it is needed.

bdget_disk() was called while the device was being suspended, in
dm_suspend().  However there could be other devices already suspended,
for example when creating additional snapshots of a device. bdget_disk()
can wait for IO and allocate memory resulting in waiting for the
already-suspended device - deadlock.

This patch changes the code so that it gets the reference to struct
block_device when struct mapped_device is allocated and initialized in
alloc_dev() where it is always OK to allocate memory or wait for I/O.
It drops the reference when it is destroyed in free_dev().  Thus there
is no call to bdget_disk() while any device is suspended.

Previously unlock_fs() was called only if bdev was held.  Now it is
called unconditionally, but the superfluous calls are harmless because
it returns immediately if the filesystem was not previously frozen.

This patch also now allows the device size to be changed in a
noflush suspend because the bdev is held.  This has no adverse effect.

Use i_size_read() instead of reading i_size.

If someone changes the size of the device simultaneously, i_size_read
is guaranteed to return a valid value (either the old one or the new one).

i_size can return some intermediate invalid value (on 32-bit computers
with 64-bit i_size, the reads to both halves of i_size can be interleaved
with updates to i_size, resulting in garbage being returned).

8cbeb67ad5 dm: avoid unsupported spanning of md stripe boundaries
A bio that has two or more vector entries, size less than or equal to
page size, that crosses a stripe boundary of an underlying md device is
accepted by device mapper (it conforms to all its limits) but not by the
underlying device.

The fix is: If device mapper selects the one-page maximum request size,
it also needs to set its own q->merge_bvec_fn to reject any bios with
multiple vector entries that span more pages.

The problem was discovered in the following scenario:
  * MD - RAID-0
  * LV on the top of it (raid1, snapshot or striped with chunk
size/stripe larger than RAID-0 stripe)
  * one of the logical volumes is exported to xen domU
  * inside xen domU it is partitioned, the key point is that the partition
must be unaligned on page boundary (fdisk normally aligns the partition to
63 sectors which will trigger it)
  * install the system on the partitioned disk in domU
This causes I/O failures in dom0.

53b351f972 dm mpath: flush keventd queue in destructor
The commit fe9cf30eb8 moves dm table event
submission from kmultipath queue to kernel kevent queue to avoid a
deadlock.

There is a possibility of race condition because kevent queue is not flushed
in the multipath destructor. The scenario is:
- some event happens and is queued to keventd
- keventd thread is delayed due to scheuling latency or some other work
- multipath device is destroyed
- keventd now attempts to process work_struct that is residing in already
  released memory.

The patch flushes the keventd queue in multipath constructor.
I've already fixed similar bug in dm-raid1.

a72986c562 dm raid1: keep retrying alloc if mempool_alloc failed
If the code can't handle allocation failures, use __GFP_NOFAIL so that
in case of memory pressure the allocator will retry indefinitely and
won't return NULL which would cause a crash in the function.

This is still not a correct fix, it may cause a classic deadlock when
memory manager waits for I/O being done and I/O waits for some free memory.
I/O code shouldn't allocate any memory. But in this case it probably
doesn't matter much in practice, people usually do not swap on RAID.

e54f77ddda dm mpath: call activate fn for each path in pg_init
Fixed a problem affecting reinstatement of passive paths.

Before we moved the hardware handler from dm to SCSI, it performed a pg_init
for a path group and didn't maintain any state about each path in hardware
handler code.

But in SCSI dh, such state is now maintained, as we want to fail I/O early on a
path if it is not the active path.

All the hardware handlers have a state now and set to active or some form of
inactive.  They have prep_fn() which uses this state to fail the I/O without
it ever being sent to the device.

So in effect when dm-multipath calls scsi_dh_activate(), activate is
sent to only one path and the "state" of that path is changed appropriately
to "active" while other paths in the same path group are never changed
as they never got an "activate".

In order make sure all the paths in a path group gets their state set
properly when a pg_init happens, we need to call scsi_dh_activate() on
all paths in a path group.

Doing this at the hardware handler layer is not a good option as we
want the multipath layer to define the relationship between path and path
groups and not the hardware handler.

Attached patch sends an "activate" on each path in a path group when a
path group is switched. It also sends an activate when a path is reinstated.

a0cf7ea954 dm mpath: change attached scsi_dh
When specifying a different hardware handler via multipath
features we should be able to override the built-in defaults.

The problem here is the hardware table from scsi_dh is compiled
in and cannot be changed from userland. The multipath.conf OTOH
is purely user-defined and, what's more, the user might have a valid
reason for modifying it.
(EG EMC Clariion can well be run in PNR mode even though ALUA is
active, or the user might want to try ALUA on any as-of-yet unknown
devices)

So _not_ allowing multipath to override the device handler setting
will just add to the confusion and makes error tracking even more
difficult.

0894cc3066 md: Move check for bitmap presence to personality code.
If the superblock of a component device indicates the presence of a
bitmap but the corresponding raid personality does not support bitmaps
(raid0, linear, multipath, faulty), then something is seriously wrong
and we'd better refuse to run such an array.

Currently, this check is performed while the superblocks are examined,
i.e. before entering personality code. Therefore the generic md layer
must know which raid levels support bitmaps and which do not.

This patch avoids this layer violation without adding identical code
to various personalities. This is accomplished by introducing a new
public function to md.c, md_check_no_bitmap(), which replaces the
hard-coded checks in the superblock loading functions.

A call to md_check_no_bitmap() is added to the ->run method of each
personality which does not support bitmaps and assembly is aborted
if at least one component device contains a bitmap.

Having a macro just to cast a void* isn't really helpful.
I would must rather see that we are simply de-referencing ->private,
than have to know what the macro does.

So open code the macro everywhere and remove the pointless cast.

This setting doesn't seem to make sense (half the chunk size??) and

The segment boundary exported by raid0 should simply be the minimum

b414579f45 md: raid0: remove ->dev pointer from strip_zone structure
If we treat conf->devlist more like a 2 dimensional array,
we can get the devlist for a particular zone simply by indexing
that array, so we don't need to store the pointers to subarrays
in strip_zone.  This makes strip_zone smaller and so (hopefully)
searches faster.

49f357a22b md: raid0: remove ->sectors from the strip_zone structure.
storing ->sectors is redundant as is can be computed from the
difference  z->zone_end - (z-1)->zone_end

The one place where it is used, it is just as efficient to use
a zone_end value instead.

And removing it makes strip_zone smaller, so they array of these that
is searched on every request has a better chance to say in cache.

So discard the field and get the value from elsewhere.

Currently the raid0 configuration is allocated in raid0_run() while

dc58266385 md: raid0: Replace hash table lookup by looping over all strip_zones.
The number of strip_zones of a raid0 array is bounded by the number of
drives in the array and is in fact much smaller for typical setups. For
example, any raid0 array containing identical disks will have only
a single strip_zone.

Therefore, the hash tables which are used for quickly finding the
strip_zone that holds a particular sector are of questionable value
and add quite a bit of unnecessary complexity.

This patch replaces the hash table lookup by equivalent code which
simply loops over all strip zones to find the zone that holds the
given sector.

In order to make this loop as fast as possible, the zone->start field
of struct strip_zone has been renamed to zone_end, and it now stores
the beginning of the next zone in sectors. This allows to save one
addition in the loop.

Subsequent cleanup patches will remove the hash table structure.

55782138e4 tracing/events: convert block trace points to TRACE_EVENT()
TRACE_EVENT is a more generic way to define tracepoints. Doing so adds
these new capabilities to this tracepoint:

  - zero-copy and per-cpu splice() tracing
  - binary tracing without printf overhead
  - structured logging records exposed under /debug/tracing/events
  - trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins
  - user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions
  ...

Cons:

  - no dev_t info for the output of plug, unplug_timer and unplug_io events.
    no dev_t info for getrq and sleeprq events if bio == NULL.
    no dev_t info for rq_abort,...,rq_requeue events if rq->rq_disk == NULL.

    This is mainly because we can't get the deivce from a request queue.
    But this may change in the future.

  - A packet command is converted to a string in TP_assign, not TP_print.
    While blktrace do the convertion just before output.

    Since pc requests should be rather rare, this is not a big issue.

  - In blktrace, an event can have 2 different print formats, but a TRACE_EVENT
    has a unique format, which means we have some unused data in a trace entry.

    The overhead is minimized by using __dynamic_array() instead of __array().

I've benchmarked the ioctl blktrace vs the splice based TRACE_EVENT tracing:

      dd                   dd + ioctl blktrace       dd + TRACE_EVENT (splice)
1     7.36s, 42.7 MB/s     7.50s, 42.0 MB/s          7.41s, 42.5 MB/s
2     7.43s, 42.3 MB/s     7.48s, 42.1 MB/s          7.43s, 42.4 MB/s
3     7.38s, 42.6 MB/s     7.45s, 42.2 MB/s          7.41s, 42.5 MB/s

So the overhead of tracing is very small, and no regression when using
those trace events vs blktrace.

And the binary output of TRACE_EVENT is much smaller than blktrace:

 # ls -l -h
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.8M 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.0
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 195K 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.1

a8c906ca3f md/raid5 - avoid deadlocks in get_active_stripe during reshape
md has functionality to 'quiesce' and array so that all pending
IO completed and no new IO starts.  This is used to achieve a
stable state before making internal changes.

Currently this quiescing applies equally to normal IO, resync
IO, and reshape IO.
However there is a problem with applying it to reshape IO.
Reshape can have multiple 'stripe_heads' that must be active together.
If the quiesce come between allocating the first and the last of
such a collection, then we deadlock, as the last will not be allocated
until the quiesce is lifted, the quiesce will not be lifted until the
first (which has been allocated) gets used, and that first cannot be
used until the last is allocated.

It is not necessary to inhibit reshape IO when a quiesce is
requested.  Those places in the code that require a full quiesce will
ensure the reshape thread is not running at all.

So allow reshape requests to get access to new stripe_heads without
being blocked by a 'quiesce'.

This only affects in-place reshapes (i.e. where the array does not
grow or shrink) and these are only newly supported.  So this patch is
not needed in earlier kernels.

88ba2aa586 async_tx: kill ASYNC_TX_DEP_ACK flag
In support of inter-channel chaining async_tx utilizes an ack flag to
gate whether a dependent operation can be chained to another.  While the
flag is not set the chain can be considered open for appending.  Setting
the ack flag closes the chain and flags the descriptor for garbage
collection.  The ASYNC_TX_DEP_ACK flag essentially means "close the
chain after adding this dependency".  Since each operation can only have
one child the api now implicitly sets the ack flag at dependency
submission time.  This removes an unnecessary management burden from
clients of the api.

[ Impact: clean up and enforce one dependency per operation ]
