This could've been quite bad (to return success but not update the new
root to point at the old) but in practice the only known consumer of the
dm array code is the DM cache target. And the DM cache target passes in
the same old root to array_resize() anyway.

rcu_dereference() should be used in sections protected by rcu_read_lock.
For writers, holding some kind of mutex or lock,
rcu_dereference_protected() is the way to go, adding explicit lockdep
bits.
In __unbind(), we are the last user of this mapped device, so can use
the constant '1' instead of a lockdep_is_held(), not consistent with
other uses of rcu_dereference_protected() which use md->suspend_lock

Simplify the pool_io_hints code that works to establish a max_sectors
value that is a power-of-2 factor of the thin-pool's blocksize. The
biggest associated improvement is that the DM thin-pool is no longer
concerning itself with the data device's max_hw_sectors when adjusting
max_sectors.
This fixes the relative fragility of the original "dm thin: adjust
max_sectors_kb based on thinp blocksize" commit that only became
apparent when testing was performed using a DM thin-pool ontop of a
virtio_blk device. One proposed upstream patch detailed the problems
inherent in virtio_blk: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/20/611
So even though virtio_blk incorrectly set its max_hw_sectors it actually
helped make it clear that we need DM thinp to be tolerant of any future
Linux driver that incorrectly sets max_hw_sectors.
We only need to be concerned with modifying the thin-pool device's
max_sectors limit if it is smaller than the thin-pool's blocksize. In
this case the value of max_sectors does become a limiting factor when
upper layers (e.g. filesystems) construct their bios. But if the
hardware can support IOs larger than the thin-pool's blocksize the user
is encouraged to adjust the thin-pool's data device's max_sectors
accordingly -- doing so will enable the thin-pool to inherit the
established user-defined max_sectors.

Before this change it was expected that userspace would first suspend
all active thin devices, reload/resize the thin-pool target, then resume
all active thin devices. Now the thin-pool suspend/resume will trigger
the suspend/resume of all active thins via appropriate calls to
dm_internal_suspend and dm_internal_resume.
Store the mapped_device for each thin device in struct thin_c to make
these calls possible.

Rename dm_internal_{suspend,resume} to dm_internal_{suspend,resume}_fast
-- dm-stats will continue using these methods to avoid all the extra
suspend/resume logic that is not needed in order to quickly flush IO.
Introduce dm_internal_suspend_noflush() variant that actually calls the
mapped_device's target callbacks -- otherwise target-specific hooks are
avoided (e.g. dm-thin's thin_presuspend and thin_postsuspend). Common
code between dm_internal_{suspend_noflush,resume} and
dm_{suspend,resume} was factored out as __dm_{suspend,resume}.
Update dm_internal_{suspend_noflush,resume} to always take and release
the mapped_device's suspend_lock. Also update dm_{suspend,resume} to be
aware of potential for DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to be set and respond
accordingly by interruptibly waiting for the DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to
be cleared. Add lockdep annotation to dm_suspend() and dm_resume().
The existing DM_SUSPEND_FLAG remains unchanged.
DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG is set by dm_internal_suspend_noflush() and
cleared by dm_internal_resume().
Both DM_SUSPEND_FLAG and DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG may be set if a device
was already suspended when dm_internal_suspend_noflush() was called --
this can be thought of as a "nested suspend". A "nested suspend" can
occur with legacy userspace dm-thin code that might suspend all active
thin volumes before suspending the pool for resize.
But otherwise, in the normal dm-thin-pool suspend case moving forward:
the thin-pool will have DM_SUSPEND_FLAG set and all active thins from
that thin-pool will have DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG set.
Also add DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to status report. This new
DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG state is being reported to assist with
debugging (e.g. 'dmsetup info' will report an internally suspended
device accordingly).

Safely allow the discard blocksize to be larger than the cache blocksize
by using the bio prison's range locking support. This also improves
discard performance considerly because larger discards are issued to the
dm-cache device. The discard blocksize was always intended to be
greater than the cache blocksize. But until now it wasn't implemented
safely.
Also, by safely restoring the ability to have discard blocksize larger
than cache blocksize we're able to significantly reduce the memory used
for the cache's discard bitset. Before, with a small discard blocksize,
the discard bitset could get quite large because its size is a function
of the discard blocksize and the origin device's size. For example,
previously, using a 32KB cache blocksize with a 40TB origin resulted in
1280MB of incore memory use for the discard bitset! Now, the discard
blocksize is scaled up accordingly to ensure the discard bitset is
capped at 2**14 bits, or 16KB.

These code changes do not introduce a functional change.
But bio_add_page() will never attempt to build up a bio larger than
queue_max_sectors(). Similarly, bio_get_nr_vecs() is also bound by
queue_max_sectors(). Therefore, there is no point in allowing
dm_merge_bvec() to answer "how many sectors can a bio have at this
offset?" with anything larger than queue_max_sectors(). Using
queue_max_sectors() rather than BIO_MAX_SECTORS serves to more
accurately convey the limits that are being imposed.
Also, use unlikely() to clarify the fact that the defensive code in
dm_merge_bvec() relative to max_size going negative shouldn't ever
happen -- if it does happen there is a bug in the block layer for
requesting larger than dm_merge_bvec()'s initial response for a given

Throttle IO based on the time it's taking the worker to do one loop.
There were reports of hung task timeouts occuring and it was observed
that the excessively long avgqu-sz (as reported by iostat) was
contributing to these hung tasks.
Throttling definitely helps dm-thinp perform better under heavy IO load
(without being detremental by being overzealous). It reduces avgqu-sz
drastically, e.g.: from 60K to ~6K, and even as low as 150 once metadata
is cached by bufio, when dirty_ratio=5, dirty_background_ratio=2. And
avgqu-sz stays at or below 30K even with dirty_ratio=20,

The walk code was using a 'ro_spine' to hold it's locked btree nodes.
But this data structure is designed for the rolling lock scheme, and
as such automatically unlocks blocks that are two steps up the call
chain. This is not suitable for the simple recursive walk algorithm,
which retraces its steps.
This code is only used by the persistent array code, which in turn is
only used by dm-cache. In order to trigger it you need to have a
mapping tree that is more than 2 levels deep; which equates to 8-16
million cache blocks. For instance a 4T ssd with a very small block
size of 32k only just triggers this bug.
The fix just places the locked blocks on the stack, and stops using
the ro_spine altogether.

The dm-raid superblock (struct dm_raid_superblock) is padded to 512
bytes and that size is being used to read it in from the metadata
device into one preallocated page.
Reading or writing this on a 512-byte sector device works fine but on
a 4096-byte sector device this fails.
Set the dm-raid superblock's size to the logical block size of the
metadata device, because IO at that size is guaranteed too work. Also
add a size check to avoid silent partial metadata loss in case the
superblock should ever grow past the logical block size or PAGE_SIZE.

"This is the block driver pull request for 3.18. Not a lot in there
this round, and nothing earth shattering.
- A round of drbd fixes from the linbit team, and an improvement in
asender performance.
- Removal of deprecated (and unused) IRQF_DISABLED flag in rsxx and
hd from Michael Opdenacker.
- Disable entropy collection from flash devices by default, from Mike
Snitzer.
- A small collection of xen blkfront/back fixes from Roger Pau Monné
and Vitaly Kuznetsov"
* 'for-3.18/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
block: disable entropy contributions for nonrot devices
xen, blkfront: factor out flush-related checks from do_blkif_request()
xen-blkback: fix leak on grant map error path
xen/blkback: unmap all persistent grants when frontend gets disconnected
rsxx: Remove deprecated IRQF_DISABLED

The shrinker uses gfp flags to indicate what kind of operation can the
driver wait for. If __GFP_IO flag is present, the driver can wait for
block I/O operations, if __GFP_FS flag is present, the driver can wait on
operations involving the filesystem.
dm-bufio tested for __GFP_IO. However, dm-bufio can run on a loop block
device that makes calls into the filesystem. If __GFP_IO is present and
__GFP_FS isn't, dm-bufio could still block on filesystem operations if it
runs on a loop block device.
The change from __GFP_IO to __GFP_FS supposedly fixes one observed (though
unreproducible) deadlock involving dm-bufio and loop device.

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

The main 'md' thread is needed for processing writes, so if it blocks
write requests could be delayed.
Starting a new thread requires some GFP_KERNEL allocations and so can
wait for writes to complete. This can deadlock.
So instead, ask a workqueue to start the sync thread.
There is no particular rush for this to happen, so any work queue
will do.
MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING is used to ensure only one thread is started.

In general we don't allow an array to be stopped if it is in use.
However if the array hasn't really been started yet, then any
apparent use is an anomily, probably due to 'udev' or similar
having a look to see what is there.
This means that if something goes wrong while assembling an array
it cannot reliably be un-assembled - STOP_ARRAY could fail.
There is no value here, so change do_md_stop() to succeed
despite concurrent opens if the array has not yet been
activated. i.e. if ->pers is NULL.

If two threads call bitmap_unplug at the same time, then
one might schedule all the writes, and the other might
decide that it doesn't need to wait. But really it does.
It rarely hurts to wait when it isn't absolutely necessary,
and the current code doesn't really focus on 'absolutely necessary'
anyway. So just wait always.
This can potentially lead to data corruption if a crash happens
at an awkward time and data was written before the bitmap was
updated. It is very unlikely, but this should go to -stable
just to be safe. Appropriate for any -stable.

When __scan frees the required number of buffer entries that the

this fix the __scan code exited only the inner loop and continued in the
outer loop -- which could result in reduced performance due to extra
buffers being freed (e.g. unnecessarily evicted thinp metadata needing
to be synchronously re-read into bufio's cache).
Also, move dm_bufio_cond_resched to __scan's inner loop, so that
iterating the bufio client's lru lists doesn't result in scheduling

The 'last_accessed' member of the dm_buffer structure was only set when
the the buffer was created. This led to each buffer being discarded
after dm_bufio_max_age time even if it was used recently. In practice
this resulted in all thinp metadata being evicted soon after being read
-- this is particularly problematic for metadata intensive workloads
like multithreaded small random IO.
'last_accessed' is now updated each time the buffer is moved to the head
of the LRU list, so the buffer is now properly discarded if it was not
used in dm_bufio_max_age time.

Until this change, when loading a new DM table, DM core would re-open
all of the devices in the DM table. Now, DM core will avoid redundant
device opens (and closes when destroying the old table) if the old
table already has a device open using the same mode. This is achieved
by managing reference counts on the table_devices that DM core now
stores in the mapped_device structure (rather than in the dm_table
structure). So a mapped_device's active and inactive dm_tables' dm_dev
lists now just point to the dm_devs stored in the mapped_device's
table_devices list.
This improvement in DM core's device reference counting has the
side-effect of fixing a long-standing limitation of the multipath
target: a DM multipath table couldn't include any paths that were unusable
(failed). For example: if all paths have failed and you add a new,
working, path to the table; you can't use it since the table load would
fail due to it still containing failed paths. Now a re-load of a
multipath table can include failed devices and when those devices become
active again they can be used instantly.
The device list code in dm.c isn't a straight copy/paste from the code in
dm-table.c, but it's very close (aside from some variable renames). One
subtle difference is that find_table_device for the tables_devices list
will only match devices with the same name and mode. This is because we
don't want to upgrade a device's mode in the active table when an
inactive table is loaded.
Access to the mapped_device structure's tables_devices list requires a
mutex (tables_devices_lock), so that tables cannot be created and
destroyed concurrently.

Since DM core uses bio_clone_fast() for both bio-based and request-based
DM devices there is no need for DM's bioset to have a bvec mempool.
With this patch, on arch with 4KB page for example, memory usage will be
reduced by 64KB for each bio-based DM device and 1MB for each
request-based DM device.
For example, when you create 10,000 bio-based DM devices and 1,000
request-based DM devices, memory usage of biovec under no load is:
# grep biovec /proc/slabinfo
biovec-256 418068 418068 4096 ...
biovec-128 0 0 2048 ...
biovec-64 0 0 1024 ...
biovec-16 0 0 256 ...
With this patch series applied, the usage becomes:
# grep biovec /proc/slabinfo
biovec-256 116 116 4096 ...
biovec-128 0 0 2048 ...
biovec-64 0 0 1024 ...
biovec-16 0 0 256 ...
So 4096 * (418068 - 116) = 1.6GB of memory is saved in this example.

alloc_tio() uses bio_alloc_bioset() to allocate a clone-bio for a bio.
alloc_tio() takes the number of bvecs to allocate for the clone-bio.
However, with v3.14's immutable biovec changes DM now uses
__bio_clone_fast() and no longer needs to allocate bvecs.
In practice, the 'nr_iovecs' passed to alloc_tio() is always effectively
0. __clone_and_map_simple_bio() looked like it was passing non-zero
nr_iovecs, but its value was always within the range of inline bvecs and
no allocation actually happened. If allocation happened, the BUG_ON() in
__bio_clone_fast() would've triggered.
Remove the nr_iovecs parameter from alloc_tio() to prevent possible
future bio_alloc_bioset() mis-use of a new bioset interface that will no
longer allow bvecs to be allocated.
Also fix extra whitespace before the __bio_clone_fast() call in

Clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM in all block drivers that set
QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT.
Historically, all block devices have automatically made entropy
contributions. But as previously stated in commit e2e1a148 ("block: add
sysfs knob for turning off disk entropy contributions"):
- On SSD disks, the completion times aren't as random as they
are for rotational drives. So it's questionable whether they
should contribute to the random pool in the first place.
- Calling add_disk_randomness() has a lot of overhead.
There are more reliable sources for randomness than non-rotational block
devices. From a security perspective it is better to err on the side of
caution than to allow entropy contributions from unreliable "random"
sources.

It has come to my attention (thanks Martin) that 'discard_zeroes_data'
is only a hint. Some devices in some cases don't do what it
says on the label.
The use of DISCARD in RAID5 depends on reads from discarded regions
being predictably zero. If a write to a previously discarded region
performs a read-modify-write cycle it assumes that the parity block
was consistent with the data blocks. If all were zero, this would
be the case. If some are and some aren't this would not be the case.
This could lead to data corruption after a device failure when
data needs to be reconstructed from the parity.
As we cannot trust 'discard_zeroes_data', ignore it by default
and so disallow DISCARD on all raid4/5/6 arrays.
As many devices are trustworthy, and as there are benefits to using
DISCARD, add a module parameter to over-ride this caution and cause
DISCARD to work if discard_zeroes_data is set.
If a site want to enable DISCARD on some arrays but not on others they
should select DISCARD support at the filesystem level, and set the
raid456 module parameter.
raid456.devices_handle_discard_safely=Y
As this is a data-safety issue, I believe this patch is suitable for
-stable.
DISCARD support for RAID456 was added in 3.7

Both normal IO and resync IO can be retried with reschedule_retry()
and so be counted into ->nr_queued, but only normal IO gets counted in
->nr_pending.
Before the recent improvement to RAID1 resync there could only
possibly have been one or the other on the queue. When handling a
read failure it could only be normal IO. So when handle_read_error()
called freeze_array() the fact that freeze_array only compares
->nr_queued against ->nr_pending was safe.
But now that these two types can interleave, we can have both normal
and resync IO requests queued, so we need to count them both in
nr_pending.
This error can lead to freeze_array() hanging if there is a read
error, so it is suitable for -stable.

raise_barrier() uses next_resync as part of its calculations, so it
really should be updated first, instead of afterwards.
next_resync is always used under resync_lock so update it under
resync lock to, just before it is used. That is safest.
This could cause normal IO and resync IO to interact badly so
it suitable for -stable.

next_resync is (approximately) the location for the next resync request.
However it does *not* reliably determine the earliest location
at which resync might be happening.
This is because resync requests can complete out of order, and
we only limit the number of current requests, not the distance
from the earliest pending request to the latest.
mddev->curr_resync_completed is a reliable indicator of the earliest
position at which resync could be happening. It is updated less
frequently, but is actually reliable which is more important.
So use it to determine if a write request is before the region
being resynced and so safe from conflict.
This error can allow resync IO to interfere with normal IO which
could lead to data corruption. Hence: stable.

The resync/recovery process for raid1 was recently changed
so that writes could happen in parallel with resync providing
they were in different regions of the device.
There is a problem though: While a write request will always
wait for conflicting resync to complete, a resync request
will *not* always wait for conflicting writes to complete.
Two changes are needed to fix this:
1/ raise_barrier (which waits until it is safe to do resync)
must wait until current_window_requests is zero
2/ wait_battier (which waits at the start of a new write request)
must update current_window_requests if the request could
possible conflict with a concurrent resync.
As concurrent writes and resync can lead to data loss,
this patch is suitable for -stable.

If there are outstanding writes when close_sync is called,
the change to ->start_next_window might cause them to

commit 79ef3a8aa1 made
it possible for reads to happen concurrently with resync.
This means that we need to be more careful where read_balancing
is allowed during resync - we can no longer be sure that any
resync that has already started will definitely finish.
So keep read_balancing to before recovery_cp, which is conservative
but safe.
This bug makes it possible to read from a device that doesn't
have up-to-date data, so it can cause data corruption.
So it is suitable for any kernel since 3.11.

When a writeback or a promotion of a block is completed, the cell of
that block is removed from the prison, the block is marked as clean, and
the clear_dirty() callback of the cache policy is called.
Unfortunately, performing those actions in this order allows an incoming
new write bio for that block to come in before clearing the dirty status
is completed and therefore possibly causing one of these two scenarios:
Scenario A:
Thread 1 Thread 2
cell_defer() .
- cell removed from prison .
- detained bios queued .
. incoming write bio
. remapped to cache
. set_dirty() called,
. but block already dirty
. => it does nothing
clear_dirty() .
- block marked clean .
- policy clear_dirty() called .
Result: Block is marked clean even though it is actually dirty. No
writeback will occur.
Scenario B:
Thread 1 Thread 2
cell_defer() .
- cell removed from prison .
- detained bios queued .
clear_dirty() .
- block marked clean .
. incoming write bio
. remapped to cache
. set_dirty() called
. - block marked dirty
. - policy set_dirty() called
- policy clear_dirty() called .
Result: Block is properly marked as dirty, but policy thinks it is clean
and therefore never asks us to writeback it.
This case is visible in "dmsetup status" dirty block count (which
normally decreases to 0 on a quiet device).
Fix these issues by calling clear_dirty() before calling cell_defer().
Incoming bios for that block will then be detained in the cell and
released only after clear_dirty() has completed, so the race will not
occur.
Found by inspecting the code after noticing spurious dirty counts
(scenario B).

The DM crypt target accesses memory beyond allocated space resulting in
a crash on 32 bit x86 systems.
This bug is very old (it dates back to 2.6.25 commit 3a7f6c990a "dm
crypt: use async crypto"). However, this bug was masked by the fact
that kmalloc rounds the size up to the next power of two. This bug
wasn't exposed until 3.17-rc1 commit 298a9fa08a ("dm crypt: use per-bio
data"). By switching to using per-bio data there was no longer any
padding beyond the end of a dm-crypt allocated memory block.
To minimize allocation overhead dm-crypt puts several structures into one
block allocated with kmalloc. The block holds struct ablkcipher_request,
cipher-specific scratch pad (crypto_ablkcipher_reqsize(any_tfm(cc))),
struct dm_crypt_request and an initialization vector.
The variable dmreq_start is set to offset of struct dm_crypt_request
within this memory block. dm-crypt allocates the block with this size:
cc->dmreq_start + sizeof(struct dm_crypt_request) + cc->iv_size.
When accessing the initialization vector, dm-crypt uses the function
iv_of_dmreq, which performs this calculation: ALIGN((unsigned long)(dmreq
+ 1), crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) + 1).
dm-crypt allocated "cc->iv_size" bytes beyond the end of dm_crypt_request
structure. However, when dm-crypt accesses the initialization vector, it
takes a pointer to the end of dm_crypt_request, aligns it, and then uses
it as the initialization vector. If the end of dm_crypt_request is not
aligned on a crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) boundary the
alignment causes the initialization vector to point beyond the allocated
space.
Fix this bug by calculating the variable iv_size_padding and adding it
to the allocated size.
Also correct the alignment of dm_crypt_request. struct dm_crypt_request
is specific to dm-crypt (it isn't used by the crypto subsystem at all),
so it is aligned on __alignof__(struct dm_crypt_request).
Also align per_bio_data_size on ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN, so that it is
aligned as if the block was allocated with kmalloc.

Most places which allocate an r10_bio zero the ->state, some don't.
As the r10_bio comes from a mempool, and the allocation function uses
kzalloc it is often zero anyway. But sometimes it isn't and it is
best to be safe.
I only noticed this because of the bug fixed by an earlier patch
where the r10_bios allocated for a reshape were left around to
be used by a subsequent resync. In that case the R10BIO_IsReshape
flag caused problems.

When a raid10 commences a resync/recovery/reshape it allocates
some buffer space.
When a resync/recovery completes the buffer space is freed. But not
when the reshape completes.
This can result in a small memory leak.
There is a subtle side-effect of this bug. When a RAID10 is reshaped
to a larger array (more devices), the reshape is immediately followed
by a "resync" of the new space. This "resync" will use the buffer
space which was allocated for "reshape". This can cause problems
including a "BUG" in the SCSI layer. So this is suitable for -stable.

a method which, while clumsy, worked until 3.10 when BIO_OWNS_VEC

Since then it clears that bit but shouldn't. This results in a
memory leak.
So change to used the approved method of clearing unwanted bits.
As this causes a memory leak which can consume all of memory

During recovery of a double-degraded RAID6 it is possible for
some blocks not to be recovered properly, leading to corruption.
If a write happens to one block in a stripe that would be written to a
missing device, and at the same time that stripe is recovering data
to the other missing device, then that recovered data may not be written.
This patch skips, in the double-degraded case, an optimisation that is
only safe for single-degraded arrays.
Bug was introduced in 2.6.32 and fix is suitable for any kernel since
then. In an older kernel with separate handle_stripe5() and
handle_stripe6() functions the patch must change handle_stripe6().

If a stripe in a raid6 array received a write to each data block while
the array is degraded, and if any of these writes to a missing device
are not page-aligned, then a live-lock happens.
In this case the P and Q blocks need to be read so that the part of
the missing block which is *not* being updated by the write can be
constructed. Due to a logic error, these blocks are not loaded, so
the update cannot proceed and the stripe is 'handled' repeatedly in an
infinite loop.
This bug is unlikely as most writes are page aligned. However as it
can lead to a livelock it is suitable for -stable. It was introduced
in 3.16.

Commit 05f1dd5 ("block: add queue flag for disabling SG merging")
introduced a new queue flag: QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE. This gets set by
default in blk_mq_init_queue for mq-enabled devices. The effect of
the flag is to bypass the SG segment merging. Instead, the
bio->bi_vcnt is used as the number of hardware segments.
With a device mapper target on top of a device with
QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE set, we can end up sending down more segments
than a driver is prepared to handle. I ran into this when backporting
the virtio_blk mq support. It triggerred this BUG_ON, in
virtio_queue_rq:
BUG_ON(req->nr_phys_segments + 2 > vblk->sg_elems);
The queue's max is set here:
blk_queue_max_segments(q, vblk->sg_elems-2);
Basically, what happens is that a bio is built up for the dm device
(which does not have the QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE flag set) using
bio_add_page. That path will call into __blk_recalc_rq_segments, so
what you end up with is bi_phys_segments being much smaller than bi_vcnt
(and bi_vcnt grows beyond the maximum sg elements). Then, when the bio
is submitted, it gets cloned. When the cloned bio is submitted, it will
end up in blk_recount_segments, here:
if (test_bit(QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE, &q->queue_flags))
bio->bi_phys_segments = bio->bi_vcnt;
and now we've set bio->bi_phys_segments to a number that is beyond what
was registered as queue_max_segments by the driver.
The right way to fix this is to propagate the queue flag up the stack.
The rules for propagating the flag are simple:
- if the flag is set for any underlying device, it must be set for the
upper device
- consequently, if the flag is not set for any underlying device, it
should not be set for the upper device.

Without this patch I see kernel warnings printed and a load average of
1.52 after booting my test VM. With this patch the warnings are gone and
the load average is near 0.00 as expected.

Add support for quickly loading a repetitive pattern into the
dm-switch target.
In the "set_regions_mappings" message, the user may now use "Rn,m" as
one of the arguments. "n" and "m" are hexadecimal numbers. The "Rn,m"
argument repeats the last "n" arguments in the following "m" slots.
For example:
dmsetup message switch 0 set_region_mappings 1000:1 :2 R2,10
is equivalent to
dmsetup message switch 0 set_region_mappings 1000:1 :2 :1 :2 :1 :2 :1 :2 \
:1 :2 :1 :2 :1 :2 :1 :2 :1 :2

Before, if the block layer's limit stacking didn't establish an
optimal_io_size that was compatible with the cache's data block size
we'd set optimal_io_size to the data block size and minimum_io_size to 0
(which the block layer adjusts to be physical_block_size).
Update cache_io_hints() to set both minimum_io_size and optimal_io_size
to the cache's data block size. This fixes an issue where mkfs.xfs
would create more XFS Allocation Groups on cache volumes than on a
normal linear LV of comparable size.

Change dm-crypt so that it uses auxiliary data allocated with the bio.
Dm-crypt requires two allocations per request - struct dm_crypt_io and
struct ablkcipher_request (with other data appended to it). It
previously only used mempool allocations.
Some requests may require more dm_crypt_ios and ablkcipher_requests,
however most requests need just one of each of these two structures to
complete.
This patch changes it so that the first dm_crypt_io and ablkcipher_request
are allocated with the bio (using target per_bio_data_size option). If
the request needs additional values, they are allocated from the mempool.

Commit 7d48935e cleaned up the persistent-data's space-map-metadata
limits by elevating them to dm-space-map-metadata.h. Update
dm-cache-metadata to use these same limits.
The calculation for DM_CACHE_METADATA_MAX_SECTORS didn't account for the
sizeof the disk_bitmap_header. So the supported maximum metadata size
is a bit smaller (reduced from 33423360 to 33292800 sectors).

Track the size of any external origin. Previously the external origin's
size had to be a multiple of the thin-pool's block size, that is no
longer a requirement. In addition, snapshots that are larger than the

Remove the io struct off the stack in sync_io() and allocate it from
the mempool like is done in async_io().
dec_count() now always calls a callback function and always frees the io
struct back to the mempool (so sync_io and async_io share this pattern).

nr_dirty is updated without locking, causing it to drift so that it is
non-zero (either a small positive integer, or a very large one when an
underflow occurs) even when there are no actual dirty blocks. This was
due to a race between the workqueue and map function accessing nr_dirty
in parallel without proper protection.
People were seeing under runs due to a race on increment/decrement of
nr_dirty, see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/3/648
Fix this by using an atomic_t for nr_dirty.
