And also re-enable partial-zero-out + discard aligned.
With the introduction of REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES,
we started to use that for both WRITE_ZEROES and DISCARDS,
hoping that WRITE_ZEROES would "do what we want",
UNMAP if possible, zero-out the rest.
The example scenario is some LVM "thin" backend.
While an un-allocated block on dm-thin reads as zeroes, on a dm-thin
with "skip_block_zeroing=true", after a partial block write allocated
that block, that same block may well map "undefined old garbage" from
the backends on LBAs that have not yet been written to.
If we cannot distinguish between zero-out and discard on the receiving
side, to avoid "undefined old garbage" to pop up randomly at later times
on supposedly zero-initialized blocks, we'd need to map all discards to
zero-out on the receiving side. But that would potentially do a full
alloc on thinly provisioned backends, even when the expectation was to
unmap/trim/discard/de-allocate.
We need to distinguish on the protocol level, whether we need to guarantee
zeroes (and thus use zero-out, potentially doing the mentioned full-alloc),
or if we want to put the emphasis on discard, and only do a "best effort
zeroing" (by "discarding" blocks aligned to discard-granularity, and zeroing
only potential unaligned head and tail clippings to at least *try* to
avoid "false positives" in an online-verify later), hoping that someone
set skip_block_zeroing=false.
For some discussion regarding this on dm-devel, see also
https://www.mail-archive.com/dm-devel%40redhat.com/msg07965.htmlhttps://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2018-January/msg00271.html
For backward compatibility, P_TRIM means zero-out, unless the
DRBD_FF_WZEROES feature flag is agreed upon during handshake.
To have upper layers even try to submit WRITE ZEROES requests,
we need to announce "efficient zeroout" independently.
We need to fixup max_write_zeroes_sectors after blk_queue_stack_limits():
if we can handle "zeroes" efficiently on the protocol,
we want to do that, even if our backend does not announce
max_write_zeroes_sectors itself.

In preparing to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
removes the discouraged use of AHASH_REQUEST_ON_STACK in favor of
the smaller SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK by converting from ahash-wrapped-shash
to direct shash. By removing a layer of indirection this both improves
performance and reduces stack usage. The stack allocation will be made
a fixed size in a later patch to the crypto subsystem.
The bulk of the lines in this change are simple s/ahash/shash/, but the
main logic differences are in drbd_csum_ee() and drbd_csum_bio(), which
externalizes the page walking with k(un)map_atomic() instead of using

Recently, drbd_recv_header() was changed to potentially
implicitly "unplug" the backend device(s), in case there
is currently nothing to receive.
Be more explicit about it: re-introduce the original drbd_recv_header(),
and introduce a new drbd_recv_header_maybe_unplug() for use by the
receiver "main loop".
Using explicit plugging via blk_start_plug(); blk_finish_plug();
really helps the io-scheduler of the backend with merging requests.
Wrap the receiver "main loop" with such a plug.
Also catch unplug events on the Primary,
and try to propagate.
This is performance relevant. Without this, if the receiving side does
not merge requests, number of IOPS on the peer can me significantly
higher than IOPS on the Primary, and can easily become the bottleneck.
Together, both changes should help to reduce the number of IOPS
as seen on the backend of the receiving side, by increasing
the chance of merging mergable requests, without trading latency
for more throughput.

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

drbd does not modify the bi_io_vec of the cloned bio,
so there is no need to clone that part. So bio_clone_fast()
is the better choice.
For bio_clone_fast() we need to specify a bio_set.
We could use fs_bio_set, which bio_clone() uses, or
drbd_md_io_bio_set, which drbd uses for metadata, but it is
generally best to avoid sharing bio_sets unless you can
be certain that there are no interdependencies.
So create a new bio_set, drbd_io_bio_set, and use bio_clone_fast().
Also remove a "XXX cannot fail ???" comment because it definitely
cannot fail - bio_clone_fast() doesn't fail if the GFP flags allow for

For larger devices, the array of bitmap page pointers can grow very
large (8000 pointers per TB of storage).
For each activity log transaction, we need to flush the associated
bitmap pages to stable storage. Currently, we just "mark" the respective
pages while setting up the transaction, then tell the bitmap code to
write out all marked pages, but skip unchanged pages.
But one such transaction can affect only a small number of bitmap pages,
there is no need to scan the full array of several (ten-)thousand
page pointers to find the few marked ones.
Instead, remember the index numbers of the few affected pages,
and later only re-check those to skip duplicates and unchanged ones.

When resync is finished, we already call the "after-resync-target"
handler (on the former sync target, obviously), once per volume.
Paired with the before-resync-target handler, you can create snapshots,
before the resync causes the volumes to become inconsistent,
and discard those snapshots again, once they are no longer needed.
It was also overloaded to be paired with the "fence-peer" handler,
to "unfence" once the volumes are up-to-date and known good.
This has some disadvantages, though: we call "fence-peer" for the whole
connection (once for the group of volumes), but would call unfence as
side-effect of after-resync-target once for each volume.
Also, we fence on a (current, or about to become) Primary,
which will later become the sync-source.
Calling unfence only as a side effect of the after-resync-target
handler opens a race window, between a new fence on the Primary
(SyncTarget) and the unfence on the SyncTarget, which is difficult to
close without some kind of "cluster wide lock" in those handlers.
We would not need those handlers if we could still communicate.
Which makes trying to aquire a cluster wide lock from those handlers
seem like a very bad idea.
This introduces the "unfence-peer" handler, which will be called
per connection (once for the group of volumes), just like the fence
handler, only once all volumes are back in sync, and on the SyncSource.
Which is expected to be the node that previously called "fence", the
node that is currently allowed to be Primary, and thus the only node
that could trigger a new "fence" that could race with this unfence.
Which makes us not need any cluster wide synchronization here,
serializing two scripts running on the same node is trivial.

We can avoid spurious data divergence caused by partially-ignored
discards on certain backends with discard_zeroes_data=0, if we
translate partial unaligned discard requests into explicit zero-out.
The relevant use case is LVM/DM thin.
If on different nodes, DRBD is backed by devices with differing
discard characteristics, discards may lead to data divergence
(old data or garbage left over on one backend, zeroes due to
unmapped areas on the other backend). Online verify would now
potentially report tons of spurious differences.
While probably harmless for most use cases (fstrim on a file system),
DRBD cannot have that, it would violate our promise to upper layers
that our data instances on the nodes are identical.
To be correct and play safe (make sure data is identical on both copies),
we would have to disable discard support, if our local backend (on a
Primary) does not support "discard_zeroes_data=true".
We'd also have to translate discards to explicit zero-out on the
receiving (typically: Secondary) side, unless the receiving side
supports "discard_zeroes_data=true".
Which both would allocate those blocks, instead of unmapping them,
in contrast with expectations.
LVM/DM thin does set discard_zeroes_data=0,
because it silently ignores discards to partial chunks.
We can work around this by checking the alignment first.
For unaligned (wrt. alignment and granularity) or too small discards,
we zero-out the initial (and/or) trailing unaligned partial chunks,
but discard all the aligned full chunks.
At least for LVM/DM thin, the result is effectively "discard_zeroes_data=1".
Arguably it should behave this way internally, by default,
and we'll try to make that happen.
But our workaround is still valid for already deployed setups,
and for other devices that may behave this way.
Setting discard-zeroes-if-aligned=yes will allow DRBD to use
discards, and to announce discard_zeroes_data=true, even on
backends that announce discard_zeroes_data=false.
Setting discard-zeroes-if-aligned=no will cause DRBD to always
fall-back to zero-out on the receiving side, and to not even
announce discard capabilities on the Primary, if the respective
backend announces discard_zeroes_data=false.
We used to ignore the discard_zeroes_data setting completely.
To not break established and expected behaviour, and suddenly
cause fstrim on thin-provisioned LVs to run out-of-space,
instead of freeing up space, the default value is "yes".

During handshake communication, we also reconsider our device size,
using drbd_determine_dev_size(). Just in case we need to change the
offsets or layout of our on-disk metadata, we lock out application
and other meta data IO, and wait for the activity log to be "idle"
(no more referenced extents).
If this handshake happens just after a connection loss, with a fencing
policy of "resource-and-stonith", we have frozen IO.
If, additionally, the activity log was "starving" (too many incoming
random writes at that point in time), it won't become idle, ever,
because of the frozen IO, and this would be a lockup of the receiver
thread, and consquentially of DRBD.
Previous logic (re-)initialized with a special "empty" transaction
block, which required the activity log to fully drain first.
Instead, write out some standard activity log transactions.
Using lc_try_lock_for_transaction() instead of lc_try_lock() does not
care about pending activity log references, avoiding the potential

Instead of using a rwlock for synchronizing state changes across
resources, take the request locks of all resources for global state
changes. Use resources_mutex to serialize global state changes.
This means that taking the request lock of a resource is now enough to

global state lock was needed as well.)

No functional changes in this patch, but it prepares us for returning
a more useful cookie related to the IO that was queued up.

As generic_make_request() is now able to handle arbitrarily sized bios,
it's no longer necessary for each individual block driver to define its
own ->merge_bvec_fn() callback. Remove every invocation completely.

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.
This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.
v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.
