2013-06-26MD: Remember the last sync operation that was performedJonathan Brassow
MD: Remember the last sync operation that was performed This patch adds a field to the mddev structure to track the last sync operation that was performed. This is especially useful when it comes to what is recorded in mismatch_cnt in sysfs. If the last operation was "data-check", then it reports the number of descrepancies found by the user-initiated check. If it was a "repair" operation, then it is reporting the number of descrepancies repaired. etc. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2013-06-14md: Wait for md_check_recovery before attempting device removal.Hannes Reinecke
When a device has failed, it needs to be removed from the personality module before it can be removed from the array as a whole. The first step is performed by md_check_recovery() which is called from the raid management thread. So when a HOT_REMOVE ioctl arrives, wait briefly for md_check_recovery to have run. This increases the chance that the ioctl will succeed. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <nfbrown@suse.de>

2013-06-13md: md_stop_writes() should always freeze recovery.NeilBrown
__md_stop_writes() will currently sometimes freeze recovery. So any caller must be ready for that to happen, and indeed they are. However if __md_stop_writes() doesn't freeze_recovery, then a recovery could start before mddev_suspend() is called, which could be awkward. This can particularly cause problems or dm-raid. So change __md_stop_writes() to always freeze recovery. This is safe and more predicatable.

2013-04-30md: bad block list should default to disabled.NeilBrown
Maintenance of a bad-block-list currently defaults to 'enabled' and is then disabled when it cannot be supported. This is backwards and causes problem for dm-raid which didn't know to disable it. So fix the defaults, and only enabled for v1.x metadata which explicitly has bad blocks enabled. The problem with dm-raid has been present since badblock support was added in v3.1, so this patch is suitable for any -stable from 3.1 onwards.

2013-04-24md: don't update metadata when stopping a read-only array.NeilBrown
read-only arrays should stay that way as much as possible. Updating the metadata - which could be triggered by a re-add while assembling the array metadata - should be avoided. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2013-04-24md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.NeilBrown
When assembling an array incrementally we might want to make it device available when "enough" devices are present, but maybe not "all" devices are present. If the remaining devices appear before the array is actually used, they should be added transparently. We do this by using the "read-auto" mode where the array acts like it is read-only until a write request arrives. Current an add-device request switches a read-auto array to active. This means that only one device can be added after the array is first made read-auto. This isn't a problem for RAID5, but is not ideal for RAID6 or RAID10. Also we don't really want to switch the array to read-auto at all when re-adding a device as this doesn't really imply any change. So: - remove the "md_update_sb()" call from add_new_disk(). This isn't really needed as just adding a disk doesn't require a metadata update. Instead, just set MD_CHANGE_DEVS. This will effect a metadata update soon enough, once the array is not read-only. - Allow the ADD_NEW_DISK ioctl to succeed without activating a read-auto array, providing the MD_DISK_SYNC flag is set. In this case, the device will be rejected if it cannot be added with the correct device number, or has an incorrect event count. - Teach remove_and_add_spares() to be careful about adding spares when the array is read-only (or read-mostly) - only add devices that are thought to be in-sync, and only do it if the array is in-sync itself. - In md_check_recovery, use remove_and_add_spares in the read-only case, rather than open coding just the 'remove' part of it.

2013-04-24md: HOT_DISK_REMOVE shouldn't make a read-auto device active.NeilBrown
If a fail device or a spare is removed from an array, there is not need to make the array 'active'. If/when the array does become active for some other reason the metadata will be update to reflect the removal. If that never happens and the array is stopped while still read-auto, then there is no loss in forgetting the that the device had 'failed'. A read-only array will leave failed devices attached to the array personality, so we need to explicitly call remove_and_add_spares() to free it (clearing Blocked just like we do in store_slot()). Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2013-04-24md: use common code for all calls to ->hot_remove_disk()NeilBrown
slot_store and remove_and_add_spares both call ->hot_remove_disk(), but with slightly different tests and consequences, which is at least untidy and might be buggy. So modify remove_and_add_spaces() so that it can be asked to remove a specific device, and call it from slot_store(). We also clear the Blocked flag to ensure that doesn't prevent removal. The purpose of Blocked is to prevent automatic removal by the kernel before an error is acknowledged. If the array is read/write then user-space would have not reason to remove a device unless it was known to be 'spare' or 'faulty' in which it would have already cleared the Blocked flag. If the array is read-only, the flag might still be blocked, but there is no harm in clearing the flag for read-only arrays. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2013-04-24md: never update metadata when array is read-only.NeilBrown
Normally we don't even try to update the metadata if the array is read-only. However future patches will increase the number of things that can happen on a read-only array, so it is safest to explicitly disable this. Every time that mddev->ro is set to 0, either - md_update_sb will be called again (at least if MD_CHANGE_DEVS is set) or - the mddev->thread is scheduled, which will also run md_update_sb if needed. So this is safe: if the array ever become read-write the metadata will be updated. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

It's only three patches (the first one was committed to workqueue tree) but the merge strategy is a bit involved due to the dependencies. * Because the conversion needs features from wq/for-3.10, block/for-3.10/core is based on rc3, and wq/for-3.10 has conflicts with rc3, I pulled mainline (rc5) into wq/for-3.10 to prevent those workqueue conflicts from flaring up in block tree. * Resolving the issue that Jan and Dave raised about debugging requires arch-wide changes.

2013-03-20MD: Prevent sysfs operations on uninitialized kobjectsJonathan Brassow
MD: Prevent sysfs operations on uninitialized kobjects Device-mapper does not use sysfs; but when device-mapper is leveraging MD's RAID personalities, MD sometimes attempts to update sysfs. This patch adds checks for 'mddev-kobj.sd' in sysfs_[un]link_rdev to ensure it is about to operate on something valid. This patch also checks for 'mddev->kobj.sd' before calling 'sysfs_notify' in 'remove_and_add_spares'. Although 'sysfs_notify' already makes this check, doing so in 'remove_and_add_spares' prevents an additional mutex operation.

2013-02-26md: fix two bugs when attempting to resize RAID0 array.NeilBrown
You cannot resize a RAID0 array (in terms of making the devices bigger), but the code doesn't entirely stop you. So: disable setting of the available size on each device for RAID0 and Linear devices. This must not change as doing so can change the effective layout of data. Make sure that the size that raid0_size() reports is accurate, but rounding devices sizes to chunk sizes. As the device sizes cannot change now, this isn't so important, but it is best to be safe. Without this change: mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -z max mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -Z max then read to the end of the array can cause a BUG in a RAID0 array. These bugs have been present ever since it became possible to resize any device, which is a long time. So the fix is suitable for any -stable kerenl.

2013-02-21md: protect against crash upon fsync on ro arraySebastian Riemer
If an fsync occurs on a read-only array, we need to send a completion for the IO and may not increment the active IO count. Otherwise, we hit a bug trace and can't stop the MD array anymore. By advice of Christoph Hellwig we return success upon a flush request but we return -EROFS for other writes. We detect flush requests by checking if the bio has zero sectors.

2012-11-30wait: add wait_event_lock_irq() interfaceLukas Czerner
New wait_event{_interruptible}_lock_irq{_cmd} macros added. This commit moves the private wait_event_lock_irq() macro from MD to regular wait includes, introduces new macro wait_event_lock_irq_cmd() instead of using the old method with omitting cmd parameter which is ugly and makes a use of new macros in the MD. It also introduces the _interruptible_ variant. The use of new interface is when one have a special lock to protect data structures used in the condition, or one also needs to invoke "cmd" before putting it to sleep. All new macros are expected to be called with the lock taken. The lock is released before sleep and is reacquired afterwards. We will leave the macro with the lock held. Note to DM: IMO this should also fix theoretical race on waitqueue while using simultaneously wait_event_lock_irq() and wait_event() because of lack of locking around current state setting and wait queue removal.

If 'resync_max' is set to 0 (as is often done when starting a reshape, so the mdadm can remain in control during a sensitive period), and if the reshape request is initially delayed because another array using the same array is resyncing or reshaping etc, when user-space cannot easily tell when the delay changes from being due to a conflicting reshape, to being due to resync_max = 0. So introduce a new state: (curr_resync == 3) to reflect this, make sure it is visible both via /proc/mdstat and via the "sync_completed" sysfs attribute, and ensure that the event transition from one delay state to the other is properly notified.

The purpose of this is to make accidental auto-assembly of the wrong arrays less of a risk, and to allow arrays to be started to read suspend-to-disk images without actually changing anything (as might happen if the array were dirty and a resync seemed necessary). Explicitly writing the 'sync_action' for a read-auto array currently doesn't clear the read-auto state, so the sync action doesn't happen, which can be confusing.

2012-10-11md: avoid taking the mutex on some ioctls.NeilBrown
Some ioctls don't need to take the mutex and doing so can cause a delay as it is held during super-block update. So move those ioctls out of the mutex and rely on rcu locking to ensure we don't access stale data. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Pull block IO update from Jens Axboe: "Core block IO bits for 3.7. Not a huge round this time, it contains: - First series from Kent cleaning up and generalizing bio allocation and freeing. - WRITE_SAME support from Martin. - Mikulas patches to prevent O_DIRECT crashes when someone changes the block size of a device. - Make bio_split() work on data-less bio's (like trim/discards). - A few other minor fixups." Fixed up silent semantic mis-merge as per Mikulas Patocka and Andrew Morton. It is due to the VM no longer using a prio-tree (see commit 6b2dbba8b6ac: "mm: replace vma prio_tree with an interval tree"). So make set_blocksize() use mapping_mapped() instead of open-coding the internal VM knowledge that has changed. * 'for-3.7/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (26 commits) block: makes bio_split support bio without data scatterlist: refactor the sg_nents scatterlist: add sg_nents fs: fix include/percpu-rwsem.h export error percpu-rw-semaphore: fix documentation typos fs/block_dev.c:1644:5: sparse: symbol 'blkdev_mmap' was not declared blockdev: turn a rw semaphore into a percpu rw semaphore Fix a crash when block device is read and block size is changed at the same time block: fix request_queue->flags initialization block: lift the initial queue bypass mode on blk_register_queue() instead of blk_init_allocated_queue() block: ioctl to zero block ranges block: Make blkdev_issue_zeroout use WRITE SAME block: Implement support for WRITE SAME block: Consolidate command flag and queue limit checks for merges block: Clean up special command handling logic block/blk-tag.c: Remove useless kfree block: remove the duplicated setting for congestion_threshold block: reject invalid queue attribute values block: Add bio_clone_bioset(), bio_clone_kmalloc() block: Consolidate bio_alloc_bioset(), bio_kmalloc() ...
2012-09-19md: make sure metadata is updated when spares are activated or removed.NeilBrown
It isn't always necessary to update the metadata when spares are removed as the presence-or-not of a spare isn't really important to the integrity of an array. Also activating a spare doesn't always require updating the metadata as the update on 'recovery-completed' is usually sufficient. However the introduction of 'replacement' devices have made these transitions sometimes more important. For example the 'Replacement' flag isn't cleared until the original device is removed, so we need to ensure a metadata update after that 'spare' is removed. So set MD_CHANGE_DEVS whenever a spare is activated or removed, to complement the current situation where it is set when a spare is added or a device is failed (or a number of other less common situations). This is suitable for -stable as out-of-data metadata could lead to data corruption. This is only relevant for 3.3 and later 9when 'replacement' as introduced.

2012-09-09block: Add bio_clone_bioset(), bio_clone_kmalloc()Kent Overstreet
Previously, there was bio_clone() but it only allocated from the fs bio set; as a result various users were open coding it and using __bio_clone(). This changes bio_clone() to become bio_clone_bioset(), and then we add bio_clone() and bio_clone_kmalloc() as wrappers around it, making use of the functionality the last patch adedd. This will also help in a later patch changing how bio cloning works.

2012-09-09block: Generalized bio pool freeingKent Overstreet
With the old code, when you allocate a bio from a bio pool you have to implement your own destructor that knows how to find the bio pool the bio was originally allocated from. This adds a new field to struct bio (bi_pool) and changes bio_alloc_bioset() to use it. This makes various bio destructors unnecessary, so they're then deleted. v6: Explain the temporary if statement in bio_put Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> CC: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> CC: Alasdair Kergon <agk@redhat.com> CC: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> CC: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2012-08-16md: Don't truncate size at 4TB for RAID0 and LinearNeilBrown
commit 27a7b260f71439c40546b43588448faac01adb93 md: Fix handling for devices from 2TB to 4TB in 0.90 metadata. changed 0.90 metadata handling to truncated size to 4TB as that is all that 0.90 can record. However for RAID0 and Linear, 0.90 doesn't need to record the size, so this truncation is not needed and causes working arrays to become too small. So avoid the truncation for RAID0 and Linear This bug was introduced in 3.1 and is suitable for any stable kernels from then onwards. As the offending commit was tagged for 'stable', any stable kernel that it was applied to should also get this patch. That includes at least 2.6.32, 2.6.33 and 3.0.
