Mike Snitzer 19b0092e26 dm cache: reduce bio front_pad size in writeback mode
A recent patch to fix the dm cache target's writethrough mode extended
the bio's front_pad to include a 1056-byte struct dm_bio_details.
Writeback mode doesn't need this, so this patch reduces the
per_bio_data_size to 16 bytes in this case instead of 1096.

The dm_bio_details structure was added in "dm cache: fix writes to
cache device in writethrough mode" which fixed commit e2e74d617e ("dm
cache: fix race in writethrough implementation").  In writeback mode
we avoid allocating the writethrough-specific members of the
per_bio_data structure (the dm_bio_details structure included).

Darrick J. Wong b844fe6918 dm cache: fix writes to cache device in writethrough mode
The dm-cache writethrough strategy introduced by commit e2e74d617e
("dm cache: fix race in writethrough implementation") issues a bio to
the origin device, remaps and then issues the bio to the cache device.
This more conservative in-series approach was selected to favor
correctness over performance (of the previous parallel writethrough).
However, this in-series implementation that reuses the same bio to write
both the origin and cache device didn't take into account that the block
layer's req_bio_endio() modifies a completing bio's bi_sector and
bi_size.  So the new writethrough strategy needs to preserve these bio
fields, and restore them before submission to the cache device,
otherwise nothing gets written to the cache (because bi_size is 0).

This patch adds a struct dm_bio_details field to struct per_bio_data,
and uses dm_bio_record() and dm_bio_restore() to ensure the bio is
restored before reissuing to the cache device.  Adding such a large
structure to the per_bio_data is not ideal but we can improve this
later, for now correctness is the important thing.

This problem initially went unnoticed because the dm-cache test-suite
uses a linear DM device for the dm-cache device's origin device.
Writethrough worked as expected because DM submits a *clone* of the
original bio, so the original bio which was reused for the cache was
never touched.

Mike Snitzer ea2dd8c1ed dm cache: policy ignore hints if generated by different version
When reading the dm cache metadata from disk, ignore the policy hints
unless they were generated by the same major version number of the same
policy module.

The hints are considered to be private data belonging to the specific
module that generated them and there is no requirement for them to make
sense to different versions of the policy that generated them.
Policy modules are all required to work fine if no previous hints are
supplied (or if existing hints are lost).

Joe Thornber e2e74d617e dm cache: fix race in writethrough implementation
We have found a race in the optimisation used in the dm cache
writethrough implementation.  Currently, dm core sends the cache target
two bios, one for the origin device and one for the cache device and
these are processed in parallel.  This patch avoids the race by
changing the code back to a simpler (slower) implementation which
processes the two writes in series, one after the other, until we can
develop a complete fix for the problem.

When the cache is in writethrough mode it needs to send WRITE bios to
both the origin and cache devices.

Previously we've been implementing this by having dm core query the
cache target on every write to find out how many copies of the bio it
wants.  The cache will ask for two bios if the block is in the cache,
and one otherwise.

Then main problem with this is it's racey.  At the time this check is
made the bio hasn't yet been submitted and so isn't being taken into
account when quiescing a block for migration (promotion or demotion).
This means a single bio may be submitted when two were needed because
the block has since been promoted to the cache (catastrophic), or two
bios where only one is needed (harmless).

I really don't want to start entering bios into the quiescing system
(deferred_set) in the get_num_write_bios callback.  Instead this patch
simplifies things; only one bio is submitted by the core, this is
first written to the origin and then the cache device in series.
Obviously this will have a latency impact.

deferred_writethrough_bios is introduced to record bios that must be
later issued to the cache device from the worker thread.  This deferred
submission, after the origin bio completes, is required given that we're
in interrupt context (writethrough_endio).

Mikulas Patocka 3b6b7813b1 dm verity: avoid deadlock
A deadlock was found in the prefetch code in the dm verity map
function.  This patch fixes this by transferring the prefetch
to a worker thread and skipping it completely if kmalloc fails.

If generic_make_request is called recursively, it queues the I/O
request on the current->bio_list without making the I/O request
and returns. The routine making the recursive call cannot wait
for the I/O to complete.

The deadlock occurs when one thread grabs the bufio_client
mutex and waits for an I/O to complete but the I/O is queued
on another thread's current->bio_list and is waiting to get
the mutex held by the first thread.

The fix recognises that prefetching is not essential.  If memory
can be allocated, it queues the prefetch request to the worker thread,
but if not, it does nothing.

Joe Thornber f046f89a99 dm thin: fix discard corruption
Fix a bug in dm_btree_remove that could leave leaf values with incorrect
reference counts.  The effect of this was that removal of a shared block
could result in the space maps thinking the block was no longer used.
More concretely, if you have a thin device and a snapshot of it, sending
a discard to a shared region of the thin could corrupt the snapshot.

Thinp uses a 2-level nested btree to store it's mappings.  This first
level is indexed by thin device, and the second level by logical
block.

Often when we're removing an entry in this mapping tree we need to
rebalance nodes, which can involve shadowing them, possibly creating a
copy if the block is shared.  If we do create a copy then children of
that node need to have their reference counts incremented.  In this
way reference counts percolate down the tree as shared trees diverge.

The rebalance functions were incrementing the children at the
appropriate time, but they were always assuming the children were
internal nodes.  This meant the leaf values (in our case packed
block/flags entries) were not being incremented.

NeilBrown f8dfcffd04 md/raid5: ensure sync and DISCARD don't happen at the same time.
A number of problems can occur due to races between
resync/recovery and discard.

- if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is
  happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event
  before all of the individual discard requests have completed
  (so some devices are still locked, but not all).
  Since commit ca64cae960
     md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished.
  this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device,
  so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other
  devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared.
  This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up.

- If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward
  time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks
  in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is
  one).

So:
 - keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have
   completed their discard request
 - make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at
   the same time.
   This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is
   happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a
   discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up
   the discard at the appropriate time.

Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for
any -stable kernel since 3.7.

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.

Jonathan Brassow e3620a3ad5 MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available
MD RAID5:  Fix kernel oops when RAID4/5/6 is used via device-mapper

Commit a9add5d (v3.8-rc1) added blktrace calls to the RAID4/5/6 driver.
However, when device-mapper is used to create RAID4/5/6 arrays, the
mddev->gendisk and mddev->queue fields are not setup.  Therefore, calling
things like trace_block_bio_remap will cause a kernel oops.  This patch
conditionalizes those calls on whether the proper fields exist to make
the calls.  (Device-mapper will call trace_block_bio_remap on its own.)

This patch is suitable for the 3.8.y stable kernel.

NeilBrown ce7d363aaf md/raid5: schedule_construction should abort if nothing to do.
Since commit 1ed850f356
    md/raid5: make sure to_read and to_write never go negative.

It has been possible for handle_stripe_dirtying to be called
when there isn't actually any work to do.
It then calls schedule_reconstruction() which will set R5_LOCKED
on the parity block(s) even when nothing else is happening.
This then causes problems in do_release_stripe().

So add checks to schedule_reconstruction() so that if it doesn't
find anything to do, it just aborts.

This bug was introduced in v3.7, so the patch is suitable
for -stable kernels since then.

io_period and total_period in struct dm_kcopyd_throttle. The actual
kcopyd activity is calculated as a percentage of time equal to
"(100 * io_period / total_period)".  This is compared with the user-defined
throttle percentage threshold and if it is exceeded, we sleep.

Mikulas Patocka a26062416e dm ioctl: allow message to return data
This patch introduces enhanced message support that allows the
device-mapper core to recognise messages that are common to all devices,
and for messages to return data to userspace.

Core messages are processed by the function "message_for_md".  If the
device mapper doesn't support the message, it is passed to the target
driver.

If the message returns data, the kernel sets the flag
DM_MESSAGE_OUT_FLAG.

Mikulas Patocka 02cde50b7e dm ioctl: optimize functions without variable params
Device-mapper ioctls receive and send data in a buffer supplied
by userspace.  The buffer has two parts.  The first part contains
a 'struct dm_ioctl' and has a fixed size.  The second part depends
on the ioctl and has a variable size.

This patch recognises the specific ioctls that do not use the variable
part of the buffer and skips allocating memory for it.

In particular, when a device is suspended and a resume ioctl is sent,
this now avoid memory allocation completely.

The variable "struct dm_ioctl tmp" is moved from the function
copy_params to its caller ctl_ioctl and renamed to param_kernel.
It is used directly when the ioctl function doesn't need any arguments.

Jun'ichi Nomura 5f01520415 dm: merge io_pool and tio_pool
This patch merges io_pool and tio_pool into io_pool and cleans up
related functions.

Though device-mapper used to have 2 pools of objects for each dm device,
the use of bioset frontbad for per-bio data has shrunk the number of
pools to 1 for both bio-based and request-based device types.
(See c0820cf5 "dm: introduce per_bio_data" and
 94818742 "dm: Use bioset's front_pad for dm_rq_clone_bio_info")

So dm no longer has to maintain 2 different pointers.

dm_calculate_queue_limits will first reset the provided limits to
defaults using blk_set_stacking_limits; whereby defeating the purpose of
retaining the original live table's limits -- as was intended via commit
3ae7065616 ("dm: retain table limits when
swapping to new table with no devices").

Fix this improper limits initialization (in the no data devices case) by
avoiding the call to dm_calculate_queue_limits.

Mikulas Patocka fd7c092e71 dm: fix truncated status strings
Avoid returning a truncated table or status string instead of setting
the DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG when the last target of a table fills the
buffer.

When processing a table or status request, the function retrieve_status
calls ti->type->status. If ti->type->status returns non-zero,
retrieve_status assumes that the buffer overflowed and sets
DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG.

However, targets don't return non-zero values from their status method
on overflow. Most targets returns always zero.

If a buffer overflow happens in a target that is not the last in the
table, it gets noticed during the next iteration of the loop in
retrieve_status; but if a buffer overflow happens in the last target, it
goes unnoticed and erroneously truncated data is returned.

In the current code, the targets behave in the following way:
* dm-crypt returns -ENOMEM if there is not enough space to store the
  key, but it returns 0 on all other overflows.
* dm-thin returns errors from the status method if a disk error happened.
  This is incorrect because retrieve_status doesn't check the error
  code, it assumes that all non-zero values mean buffer overflow.
* all the other targets always return 0.

This patch changes the ti->type->status function to return void (because
most targets don't use the return code). Overflow is detected in
retrieve_status: if the status method fills up the remaining space
completely, it is assumed that buffer overflow happened.

The regression was introduced by the change
c0820cf5 "dm: introduce per_bio_data", where dm started to replace
bioset during table replacement.
For bio-based dm, it is good because clone bios do not exist during the
table replacement.
For request-based dm, however, (not-yet-mapped) clone bios may stay in
request queue and survive during the table replacement.
So freeing the old bioset could cause the oops in bio_put().

Since the size of front_pad may change only with bio-based dm,
it is not necessary to replace bioset for request-based dm.

  since my workstation kept crashing every 2-8h after pulling it into

  by zero, will report separately).  In any case, it contains:

   - The big cfq/blkcg update from Tejun and and Vivek.

   - Additional block and writeback tracepoints from Tejun.

   - Improvement of the should sort (based on queues) logic in the plug
     flushing.

   - _io() variants of the wait_for_completion() interface, using
     io_schedule() instead of schedule() to contribute to io wait
     properly.

   - Various little fixes.

  You'll get two trivial merge conflicts, which should be easy enough to
  fix up"
