Hannes Reinecke ae11b1b36d [SCSI] scsi_dh: attach to hardware handler from dm-mpath
multipath keeps a separate device table which may be
more current than the built-in one.
So we should make sure to always call ->attach whenever
a multipath map with hardware handler is instantiated.
And we should call ->detach on removal, too.

Dan Williams 2339788376 md: fix merge error
The original STRIPE_OP_IO removal patch had the following hunk:

-               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; ) {
+               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; )
                        set_bit(R5_Wantwrite, &sh->dev[i].flags);
-                       if (!test_and_set_bit(STRIPE_OP_IO, &sh->ops.pending))
-                               sh->ops.count++;
-               }

However it appears the hunk became broken after merging:
-               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; ) {
+               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; )
                        set_bit(R5_Wantwrite, &sh->dev[i].flags);
                        set_bit(R5_LOCKED, &dev->flags);
                        s.locked++;
-                       if (!test_and_set_bit(STRIPE_OP_IO, &sh->ops.pending))

Mikulas Patocka a8d41b59f3 dm snapshot: fix race during exception creation
Fix a race condition that returns incorrect data when a write causes an
exception to be allocated whilst a read is still in flight.

The race condition happens as follows:
* A read to non-reallocated sector in the snapshot is submitted so that the
  read is routed to the original device.
* A write to the original device is submitted. The write causes an exception
  that reallocates the block.  The write proceeds.
* The original read is dequeued and reads the wrong data.

This race can be triggered with CFQ scheduler and one thread writing and
multiple threads reading simultaneously.

(This patch relies upon the earlier dm-kcopyd-per-device.patch to avoid a
deadlock.)

NeilBrown 4b80991c6c md: Protect access to mddev->disks list using RCU
All modifications and most access to the mddev->disks list are made
under the reconfig_mutex lock.  However there are three places where
the list is walked without any locking.  If a reconfig happens at this
time, havoc (and oops) can ensue.

So use RCU to protect these accesses:
  - wrap them in rcu_read_{,un}lock()
  - use list_for_each_entry_rcu
  - add to the list with list_add_rcu
  - delete from the list with list_del_rcu
  - delay the 'free' with call_rcu rather than schedule_work

Note that export_rdev did a list_del_init on this list.  In almost all
cases the entry was not in the list anymore so it was a no-op and so
safe.  It is no longer safe as after list_del_rcu we may not touch
the list_head.
An audit shows that export_rdev is called:
  - after unbind_rdev_from_array, in which case the delete has
     already been done,
  - after bind_rdev_to_array fails, in which case the delete isn't needed.
  - before the device has been put on a list at all (e.g. in
      add_new_disk where reading the superblock fails).
  - and in autorun devices after a failure when the device is on a
      different list.

So remove the list_del_init call from export_rdev, and add it back
immediately before the called to export_rdev for that last case.

Note also that ->same_set is sometimes used for lists other than
mddev->list (e.g. candidates).  In these cases rcu is not needed.

NeilBrown f2ea68cf42 md: only count actual openers as access which prevent a 'stop'
Open isn't the only thing that increments ->active.  e.g. reading
/proc/mdstat will increment it briefly.  So to avoid false positives
in testing for concurrent access, introduce a new counter that counts
just the number of times the md device it open.

Andre Noll d07bd3bcc4 md: Fix check for overlapping devices.
The checks in overlaps() expect all parameters either in block-based
or sector-based quantities. However, its single caller passes two
rdev->data_offset arguments as well as two rdev->size arguments, the
former being sector counts while the latter are measured in 1K blocks.

This could cause rdev_size_store() to accept an invalid size from user
space. Fix it by passing only sector-based quantities to overlaps().

Neil Brown d7027458d6 md: Tidy up rdev_size_store a bit:
- used strict_strtoull in place of simple_strtoull
 - use my_mddev in place of rdev->mddev (they have the same value)
and more significantly,
 - don't adjust mddev->size to fit, rather reject changes which make
   rdev->size smaller than mddev->size

Adjusting mddev->size is a hangover from bind_rdev_to_array which
does a similar thing.  But it really is a better design to insist that
mddev->size is set as required, then the rdev->sizes are set to allow
for that.  The previous way invites confusion.

Alasdair G Kergon cc371e66e3 Add bvec_merge_data to handle stacked devices and ->merge_bvec()
When devices are stacked, one device's merge_bvec_fn may need to perform
the mapping and then call one or more functions for its underlying devices.

The following bio fields are used:
  bio->bi_sector
  bio->bi_bdev
  bio->bi_size
  bio->bi_rw  using bio_data_dir()

This patch creates a new struct bvec_merge_data holding a copy of those
fields to avoid having to change them directly in the struct bio when
going down the stack only to have to change them back again on the way
back up.  (And then when the bio gets mapped for real, the whole
exercise gets repeated, but that's a problem for another day...)

Dan Williams b5470dc5fc md: resolve external metadata handling deadlock in md_allow_write
md_allow_write() marks the metadata dirty while holding mddev->lock and then
waits for the write to complete.  For externally managed metadata this causes a
deadlock as userspace needs to take the lock to communicate that the metadata
update has completed.

Change md_allow_write() in the 'external' case to start the 'mark active'
operation and then return -EAGAIN.  The expected side effects while waiting for
userspace to write 'active' to 'array_state' are holding off reshape (code
currently handles -ENOMEM), cause some 'stripe_cache_size' change requests to
fail, cause some GET_BITMAP_FILE ioctl requests to fall back to GFP_NOIO, and
cause updates to 'raid_disks' to fail.  Except for 'stripe_cache_size' changes
these failures can be mitigated by coordinating with mdmon.

md_write_start() still prevents writes from occurring until the metadata
handler has had a chance to take action as it unconditionally waits for
MD_CHANGE_CLEAN to be cleared.

The intended global interpretation is that raid5_run_ops can build a chain
of xor and memcpy operations.  When MD registers the compute-xor it tells
async_tx to keep the operation handle around so that another item in the
dependency chain can be submitted. If we are just computing a block to
satisfy a read then we can terminate the chain immediately.  raid5_run_ops
gives a better context for this test since it cares about the entire chain.

Dan Williams ecc65c9b3f md: replace STRIPE_OP_CHECK with 'check_states'
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

The STRIPE_OP_* flags record the state of stripe operations which are
performed outside the stripe lock.  Their use in indicating which
operations need to be run is straightforward; however, interpolating what
the next state of the stripe should be based on a given combination of
these flags is not straightforward, and has led to bugs.  An easier to read
implementation with minimal degrees of freedom is needed.

Towards this goal, this patch introduces explicit states to replace what was
previously interpolated from the STRIPE_OP_* flags.  For now this only converts
the handle_parity_checks5 path, removing a user of the
ops.{pending,ack,complete,count} fields of struct stripe_operations.

This conversion also found a remaining issue with the current code.  There is
a small window for a drive to fail between when we schedule a repair and when
the parity calculation for that repair completes.  When this happens we will
writeback to 'failed_num' when we really want to write back to 'pd_idx'.

1/ It is a layering violation for MD to need to manage the DMA and

2/ Bad precedent to toggle the 'ops' flags outside the lock

Neil Brown a0da84f35b Improve setting of "events_cleared" for write-intent bitmaps.
When an array is degraded, bits in the write-intent bitmap are not
cleared, so that if the missing device is re-added, it can be synced
by only updated those parts of the device that have changed since
it was removed.

The enable this a 'events_cleared' value is stored. It is the event
counter for the array the last time that any bits were cleared.

Sometimes - if a device disappears from an array while it is 'clean' -
the events_cleared value gets updated incorrectly (there are subtle
ordering issues between updateing events in the main metadata and the
bitmap metadata) resulting in the missing device appearing to require
a full resync when it is re-added.

With this patch, we update events_cleared precisely when we are about
to clear a bit in the bitmap.  We record events_cleared when we clear
the bit internally, and copy that to the superblock which is written
out before the bit on storage.  This makes it more "obviously correct".

We also need to update events_cleared when the event_count is going
backwards (as happens on a dirty->clean transition of a non-degraded
array).

"fixes".

We shouldn't acknowledge that a stripe has been expanded (When
reshaping a raid5 by adding a device) until the moved data has

acknowledging (by calling md_done_sync) when the POST_XOR

So track in s.locked whether there are pending writes, and don't
call md_done_sync yet if there are.

Note: we all set R5_LOCKED on devices which are are about to
read from.  This probably isn't technically necessary, but is
usually done when writing a block, and justifies the use of
s.locked here.

Neil Brown 8c2e870a62 Ensure interrupted recovery completed properly (v1 metadata plus bitmap)
If, while assembling an array, we find a device which is not fully
in-sync with the array, it is important to set the "fullsync" flags.
This is an exact analog to the setting of this flag in hot_add_disk
methods.

Currently, only v1.x metadata supports having devices in an array
which are not fully in-sync (it keep track of how in sync they are).
The 'fullsync' flag only makes a difference when a write-intent bitmap
is being used.  In this case it tells recovery to ignore the bitmap
and recovery all blocks.

This fix is already in place for raid1, but not raid5/6 or raid10.

So without this fix, a raid1 ir raid4/5/6 array with version 1.x
metadata and a write intent bitmaps, that is stopped in the middle
of a recovery, will appear to complete the recovery instantly
after it is reassembled, but the recovery will not be correct.

If you might have an array like that, issueing
   echo repair > /sys/block/mdXX/md/sync_action

will make sure recovery completes properly.

Dan Williams e0a115e5aa md: fix prexor vs sync_request race
During the initial array synchronization process there is a window between
when a prexor operation is scheduled to a specific stripe and when it
completes for a sync_request to be scheduled to the same stripe.  When
this happens the prexor completes and the stripe is unconditionally marked
"insync", effectively canceling the sync_request for the stripe.  Prior to
2.6.23 this was not a problem because the prexor operation was done under
sh->lock.  The effect in older kernels being that the prexor would still
erroneously mark the stripe "insync", but sync_request would be held off
and re-mark the stripe as "!in_sync".

Change the write completion logic to not mark the stripe "in_sync" if a
prexor was performed.  The effect of the change is to sometimes not set
STRIPE_INSYNC.  The worst this can do is cause the resync to stall waiting
for STRIPE_INSYNC to be set.  If this were happening, then STRIPE_SYNCING

available blocks to eventually be read, at which point prexor would never
be used on that stripe any more and STRIPE_INSYNC would eventually be set.

echo repair > /sys/block/mdN/md/sync_action will correct arrays that may
have lost this race.

Chandra Seetharaman bab7cfc733 [SCSI] scsi_dh: Add a single threaded workqueue for initializing paths
Before this patch set (SCSI hardware handlers), initialization of a
path was done asynchronously. Doing that requires a workqueue in each
device/hardware handler module and leads to unneccessary complication
in the device handler code, making it difficult to read the code and
follow the state diagram.

Moving that workqueue to this level makes the device handler code simpler.
Hence, the workqueue is moved to dm level.

A new workqueue is added instead of adding it to the existing workqueue
(kmpathd) for the following reasons:
	1. Device activation has to happen faster, stacking them along
	   with the other workqueue might lead to unnecessary delay
	   in the activation of the path.
	2. The effect could be felt the other way too. i.e the current
	   events that are handled by the existing workqueue might get
	   a delayed response.

Chandra Seetharaman cfae5c9bb6 [SCSI] scsi_dh: Use SCSI device handler in dm-multipath
This patch converts dm-mpath to use scsi device handlers instead of
dm's hardware handlers.

This patch does not add any new functionality. Old behaviors remain and
userspace tools work as is except that arguments supplied with hardware
handler are ignored.

One behavioral exception is: Activation of a path is synchronous in this
patch, opposed to the older behavior of being asynchronous (changed in
patch 07: scsi_dh: Add a single threaded workqueue for initializing a path)

Note: There is no need to get a reference for the device handler module
(as it was done in the dm hardware handler case) here as the reference
is held when the device was first found. Instead we check and make sure
that support for the specified device is present at table load time.

NeilBrown dfc7064500 md: restart recovery cleanly after device failure.
When we get any IO error during a recovery (rebuilding a spare), we abort
the recovery and restart it.

For RAID6 (and multi-drive RAID1) it may not be best to restart at the
beginning: when multiple failures can be tolerated, the recovery may be
able to continue and re-doing all that has already been done doesn't make
sense.

We already have the infrastructure to record where a recovery is up to
and restart from there, but it is not being used properly.
This is because:
  - We sometimes abort with MD_RECOVERY_ERR rather than just MD_RECOVERY_INTR,
    which causes the recovery not be be checkpointed.
  - We remove spares and then re-added them which loses important state
    information.

The distinction between MD_RECOVERY_ERR and MD_RECOVERY_INTR really isn't
needed.  If there is an error, the relevant drive will be marked as
Faulty, and that is enough to ensure correct handling of the error.  So we
first remove MD_RECOVERY_ERR, changing some of the uses of it to
MD_RECOVERY_INTR.

Then we cause the attempt to remove a non-faulty device from an array to
fail (unless recovery is impossible as the array is too degraded).  Then
when remove_and_add_spares attempts to remove the devices on which
recovery can continue, it will fail, they will remain in place, and
recovery will continue on them as desired.

Issue:  If we are halfway through rebuilding a spare and another drive
fails, and a new spare is immediately available,  do we want to:
 1/ complete the current rebuild, then go back and rebuild the new spare or
 2/ restart the rebuild from the start and rebuild both devices in
    parallel.

Both options can be argued for.  The code currently takes option 2 as
  a/ this requires least code change
  b/ this results in a minimally-degraded array in minimal time.

Bernd Schubert 90b08710e4 md: allow parallel resync of md-devices.
In some configurations, a raid6 resync can be limited by CPU speed
(Calculating P and Q and moving data) rather than by device speed.  In
these cases there is nothing to be gained byt serialising resync of arrays
that share a device, and doing the resync in parallel can provide benefit.
 So add a sysfs tunable to flag an array as being allowed to resync in
parallel with other arrays that use (a different part of) the same device.

Dan Williams 4f54b0e948 md: notify userspace on 'stop' events
This additional notification to 'array_state' is needed to allow the
monitor application to learn about stop events via sysfs.  The
sysfs_notify("sync_action") call that comes at the end of do_md_stop()
(via md_new_event) is insufficient since the 'sync_action' attribute has
been removed by this point.

(Seems like a sysfs-notify-on-removal patch is a better fix.  Currently
removal updates the event count but does not wake up waiters)

When an array enters write pending, 'array_state' changes, so we must be
sure to sysfs_notify.

Also, when waiting for user-space to acknowledge 'write-pending' by
marking the metadata as dirty, we don't want to wait for MD_CHANGE_DEVS to
be cleared as that might not happen.  So explicity test for the bits that
we are really interested in.

NeilBrown 698b18c1e8 md: raid1: Fix restoration of bio between failed read and write.
When performing a "recovery" or "check" pass on a RAID1 array, we read
from each device and possible, if there is a difference or a read error,
write back to some devices.

We use the same 'bio' for both read and write, resetting various fields
between the two operations.

We forgot to reset bv_offset and bv_len however.  These are often left
unchanged, but in the case where there is an IO error one or two sectors
into a page, they are changed.

This results in correctable errors not being corrected properly.  It does
not result in any data corruption.

Bernd Schubert 6be9d49401 md: md: raid5 rate limit error printk
Last night we had scsi problems and a hardware raid unit was offlined
during heavy i/o.  While this happened we got for about 3 minutes a huge
number messages like these

Apr 12 03:36:07 pfs1n14 kernel: [197510.696595] raid5:md7: read error not correctable (sector 2993096568 on sdj2).

I guess the high error rate is responsible for not scheduling other events
- during this time the system was not pingable and in the end also other
devices run into scsi command timeouts causing problems on these unrelated
devices as well.

When we do with the 'quiesce' the array, which causes make_request to

However we are sampling the value of "mddev->bitmap" before the

Neil Brown e7e72bf641 Remove blkdev warning triggered by using md
As setting and clearing queue flags now requires that we hold a spinlock
on the queue, and as blk_queue_stack_limits is called without that lock,
get the lock inside blk_queue_stack_limits.

For blk_queue_stack_limits to be able to find the right lock, each md
personality needs to set q->queue_lock to point to the appropriate lock.
Those personalities which didn't previously use a spin_lock, us
q->__queue_lock.  So always initialise that lock when allocated.

With this in place, setting/clearing of the QUEUE_FLAG_PLUGGED bit will no
longer cause warnings as it will be clear that the proper lock is held.

Thanks to Dan Williams for review and fixing the silly bugs.

Dan Williams c8894419ac md: fix raid5 'repair' operations
commit bd2ab67030 "md: close a livelock window
in handle_parity_checks5" introduced a bug in handling 'repair' operations.
After a repair operation completes we clear the state bits tracking this
operation.  However, they are cleared too early and this results in the code
deciding to re-run the parity check operation.  Since we have done the repair
in memory the second check does not find a mismatch and thus does not do a
writeback.

Test results:
$ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action
$ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt
51072
$ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action
$ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt
0

(also fix incorrect indentation)
