Currently bcache does not handle backing device failure, if backing device is offline and disconnected from system, its bcache device can still be accessible. If the bcache device is in writeback mode, I/O requests even can success if the requests hit on cache device. That is to say, when and how bcache handles offline backing device is undefined. This patch tries to handle backing device offline in a rather simple way, - Add cached_dev->status_update_thread kernel thread to update backing device status in every 1 second. - Add cached_dev->offline_seconds to record how many seconds the backing device is observed to be offline. If the backing device is offline for BACKING_DEV_OFFLINE_TIMEOUT (30) seconds, set dc->io_disable to 1 and call bcache_device_stop() to stop the bache device which linked to the offline backing device. Now if a backing device is offline for BACKING_DEV_OFFLINE_TIMEOUT seconds, its bcache device will be removed, then user space application writing on it will get error immediately, and handler the device failure in time. This patch is quite simple, does not handle more complicated situations. Once the bcache device is stopped, users need to recovery the backing device, register and attach it manually. Changelog: v3: call wait_for_kthread_stop() before exits kernel thread. v2: remove "bcache: " prefix when calling pr_warn(). v1: initial version.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
