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.

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.

When a write error is detected, don't mark the device as failed

If we get an uncorrectable read error - record a bad block rather than
failing the device.
And if these errors (which may be due to known bad blocks) cause
recovery to be impossible, record a bad block on the recovering
devices, or abort the recovery.
As we might abort a recovery without failing a device we need to teach
RAID5 about recovery_disabled handling.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
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.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
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.

As no personality understand bad block lists yet, we must

sh->lock is now mainly used to ensure that two threads aren't running

That can more neatly be achieved with an 'active' flag which we set
while running handle_stripe. If we find the flag is set, we simply
requeue the stripe for later by setting STRIPE_HANDLE.
For safety we take ->device_lock while examining the state of the
stripe and creating a summary in 'stripe_head_state / r6_state'.
This possibly isn't needed but as shared fields like ->toread,
->towrite are checked it is safer for now at least.
We leave the label after the old 'unlock' called "unlock" because it

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.
