NeilBrown 490773268c md: move io accounting out of personalities into md_make_request
While I generally prefer letting personalities do as much as possible,
given that we have a central md_make_request anyway we may as well use
it to simplify code.
Also this centralises knowledge of ->gendisk which will help later.

NeilBrown a64c876fd3 md: manage redundancy group in sysfs when changing level.
Some levels expect the 'redundancy group' to be present,
others don't.
So when we change level of an array we might need to
add or remove this group.

This requires fixing up the current practice of overloading ->private
to indicate (when ->pers == NULL) that something needs to be removed.
So create a new ->to_remove to fill that role.

When changing levels, we may need to add or remove attributes.  When
changing RAID5 -> RAID6, we both add and remove the same thing.  It is
important to catch this and optimise it out as the removal is delayed
until a lock is released, so trying to add immediately would cause
problems.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

NeilBrown ef286f6fa6 md: fix some lockdep issues between md and sysfs.
======
This fix is related to
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15142
but does not address that exact issue.
======

sysfs does like attributes being removed while they are being accessed
(i.e. read or written) and waits for the access to complete.

As accessing some md attributes takes the same lock that is held while
removing those attributes a deadlock can occur.

This patch addresses 3 issues in md that could lead to this deadlock.

Two relate to calling flush_scheduled_work while the lock is held.
This is probably a bad idea in general and as we use schedule_work to
delete various sysfs objects it is particularly bad.

In one case flush_scheduled_work is called from md_alloc (called by
md_probe) called from do_md_run which holds the lock.  This call is
only present to ensure that ->gendisk is set.  However we can be sure
that gendisk is always set (though possibly we couldn't when that code
was originally written.  This is because do_md_run is called in three
different contexts:
  1/ from md_ioctl.  This requires that md_open has succeeded, and it
     fails if ->gendisk is not set.
  2/ from writing a sysfs attribute.  This can only happen if the
     mddev has been registered in sysfs which happens in md_alloc
     after ->gendisk has been set.
  3/ from autorun_array which is only called by autorun_devices, which
     checks for ->gendisk to be set before calling autorun_array.
So the call to md_probe in do_md_run can be removed, and the check on
->gendisk can also go.


In the other case flush_scheduled_work is being called in do_md_stop,
purportedly to wait for all md_delayed_delete calls (which delete the
component rdevs) to complete.  However there really isn't any need to
wait for them - they have already been disconnected in all important
ways.

The third issue is that raid5->stop() removes some attribute names
while the lock is held.  There is already some infrastructure in place
to delay attribute removal until after the lock is released (using
schedule_work).  So extend that infrastructure to remove the
raid5_attrs_group.

This does not address all lockdep issues related to the sysfs
"s_active" lock.  The rest can be address by splitting that lockdep
context between symlinks and non-symlinks which hopefully will happen.

NeilBrown 9eb07c2592 md: fix 'degraded' calculation when starting a reshape.
This code was written long ago when it was not possible to
reshape a degraded array.  Now it is so the current level of
degraded-ness needs to be taken in to account.  Also newly addded
devices should only reduce degradedness if they are deemed to be
in-sync.

In particular, if you convert a RAID5 to a RAID6, and increase the
number of devices at the same time, then the 5->6 conversion will
make the array degraded so the current code will produce a wrong
value for 'degraded' - "-1" to be precise.

If the reshape runs to completion end_reshape will calculate a correct
new value for 'degraded', but if a device fails during the reshape an
incorrect decision might be made based on the incorrect value of
"degraded".

This patch is suitable for 2.6.32-stable and if they are still open,
2.6.31-stable and 2.6.30-stable as well.

NeilBrown 729a18663a md/raid5: don't complete make_request on barrier until writes are scheduled
The post-barrier-flush is sent by md as soon as make_request on the
barrier write completes.  For raid5, the data might not be in the
per-device queues yet.  So for barrier requests, wait for any
pre-reading to be done so that the request will be in the per-device
queues.

We use the 'preread_active' count to check that nothing is still in
the preread phase, and delay the decrement of this count until after
write requests have been submitted to the underlying devices.

NeilBrown a2826aa92e md: support barrier requests on all personalities.
Previously barriers were only supported on RAID1.  This is because
other levels requires synchronisation across all devices and so needed
a different approach.
Here is that approach.

When a barrier arrives, we send a zero-length barrier to every active
device.  When that completes - and if the original request was not
empty -  we submit the barrier request itself (with the barrier flag
cleared) and then submit a fresh load of zero length barriers.

The barrier request itself is asynchronous, but any subsequent
request will block until the barrier completes.

The reason for clearing the barrier flag is that a barrier request is
allowed to fail.  If we pass a non-empty barrier through a striping
raid level it is conceivable that part of it could succeed and part
could fail.  That would be way too hard to deal with.
So if the first run of zero length barriers succeed, we assume all is
sufficiently well that we send the request and ignore errors in the
second run of barriers.

RAID5 needs extra care as write requests may not have been submitted
to the underlying devices yet.  So we flush the stripe cache before
proceeding with the barrier.

Note that the second set of zero-length barriers are submitted
immediately after the original request is submitted.  Thus when
a personality finds mddev->barrier to be set during make_request,
it should not return from make_request until the corresponding
per-device request(s) have been queued.

That will be done in later patches.

NeilBrown c148ffdcda md/raid5: Allow dirty-degraded arrays to be assembled when only party is degraded.
Normally is it not safe to allow a raid5 that is both dirty and
degraded to be assembled without explicit request from that admin, as
it can cause hidden data corruption.
This is because 'dirty' means that the parity cannot be trusted, and
'degraded' means that the parity needs to be used.

However, if the device that is missing contains only parity, then
there is no issue and assembly can continue.
This particularly applies when a RAID5 is being converted to a RAID6
and there is an unclean shutdown while the conversion is happening.

So check for whether the degraded space only contains parity, and
in that case, allow the assembly.

NeilBrown 7ef90146a1 Don't unconditionally set in_sync on newly added device in raid5_reshape
When a reshape finds that it can add spare devices into the array,
those devices might already be 'in_sync' if they are beyond the old
size of the array, or they might not if they are within the array.

The first case happens when we change an N-drive RAID5 to an
N+1-drive RAID5.
The second happens when we convert an N-drive RAID5 to an
N+1-drive RAID6.

So set the flag more carefully.
Also, ->recovery_offset is only meaningful when the flag is clear,
so only set it in that case.

This change needs the preceding two to ensure that the non-in_sync
device doesn't get evicted from the array when it is stopped, in the
case where v0.90 metadata is used.

This value is visible through sysfs and is used by mdadm
when it manages a reshape (backing up data that is about to be

Current it does not get updated properly when a reshape

that is in the middle of being reshaped.

NeilBrown 5dd33c9a4c md/async: don't pass a memory pointer as a page pointer.
md/raid6 passes a list of 'struct page *' to the async_tx routines,
which then either DMA map them for offload, or take the page_address
for CPU based calculations.

For RAID6 we sometime leave 'blanks' in the list of pages.
For CPU based calcs, we want to treat theses as a page of zeros.
For offloaded calculations, we simply don't pass a page to the
hardware.

Currently the 'blanks' are encoded as a pointer to
raid6_empty_zero_page.  This is a 4096 byte memory region, not a
'struct page'.  This is mostly handled correctly but is rather ugly.

So change the code to pass and expect a NULL pointer for the blanks.
When taking page_address of a page, we need to check for a NULL and
in that case use raid6_empty_zero_page.

NeilBrown 5e5e3e78ed md: Fix handling of raid5 array which is being reshaped to fewer devices.
When a raid5 (or raid6) array is being reshaped to have fewer devices,
conf->raid_disks is the latter and hence smaller number of devices.
However sometimes we want to use a number which is the total number of
currently required devices - the larger of the 'old' and 'new' sizes.
Before we implemented reducing the number of devices, this was always
'new' i.e. ->raid_disks.
Now we need max(raid_disks, previous_raid_disks) in those places.

This particularly affects assembling an array that was shutdown while
in the middle of a reshape to fewer devices.

md.c needs a similar fix when interpreting the md metadata.

Dan Williams 417b8d4ac8 md/raid456: downlevel multicore operations to raid_run_ops
The percpu conversion allowed a straightforward handoff of stripe
processing to the async subsytem that initially showed some modest gains
(+4%).  However, this model is too simplistic and leads to stripes
bouncing between raid5d and the async thread pool for every invocation
of handle_stripe().  As reported by Holger this can fall into a
pathological situation severely impacting throughput (6x performance
loss).

By downleveling the parallelism to raid_run_ops the pathological
stripe_head bouncing is eliminated.  This version still exhibits an
average 11% throughput loss for:

	mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-q] -n 16 -l 6
	echo 1024 > /sys/block/md0/md/stripe_cache_size
	dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048

...but the results are at least stable and can be used as a base for
further multicore experimentation.

If descriptor2 depends on the result from descriptor1 then a fence is
required (on descriptor2) to disable this optimization.  The async_tx
api could implicitly identify dependencies via the 'depend_tx'
parameter, but that would constrain cases where the dependency chain
only specifies a completion order rather than a data dependency.  So,
provide an ASYNC_TX_FENCE to explicitly identify data dependencies.

Dan Williams 07a3b417dc md/raid456: distribute raid processing over multiple cores
Now that the resources to handle stripe_head operations are allocated
percpu it is possible for raid5d to distribute stripe handling over
multiple cores.  This conversion also adds a call to cond_resched() in
the non-multicore case to prevent one core from getting monopolized for
raid operations.

[ Based on an original patch by Yuri Tikhonov ]

Implement the state machine for handling the RAID-6 parities check and
repair functionality.  Note that the raid6 case does not need to check
for new failures, like raid5, as it will always writeback the correct
disks.  The raid5 case can be updated to check zero_sum_result to avoid
getting confused by new failures rather than retrying the entire check
operation.

Yuri Tikhonov a9b39a741a md/raid6: asynchronous handle_stripe_dirtying6
In the synchronous implementation of stripe dirtying we processed a
degraded stripe with one call to handle_stripe_dirtying6().  I.e.
compute the missing blocks from the other drives, then copy in the new
data and reconstruct the parities.

In the asynchronous case we do not perform stripe operations directly.
Instead, operations are scheduled with flags to be later serviced by
raid_run_ops.  So, for the degraded case the final reconstruction step
can only be carried out after all blocks have been brought up to date by
being read, or computed.  Like the raid5 case schedule_reconstruction()
sets STRIPE_OP_RECONSTRUCT to request a parity generation pass and
through operation chaining can handle compute and reconstruct in a
single raid_run_ops pass.

Dan Williams ac6b53b6e6 md/raid6: asynchronous raid6 operations
[ Based on an original patch by Yuri Tikhonov ]

The raid_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api and
the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+pq+copy
operations asynchronously, outside the lock.

The operations performed by RAID-6 are the same as in the RAID-5 case
except for no support of STRIPE_OP_PREXOR operations. All the others
are supported:
STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL
 - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request
STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK
 - generate missing blocks (1 or 2) in the cache from the other blocks
STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN
 - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request
STRIPE_OP_RECONSTRUCT
 - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache
STRIPE_OP_CHECK
 - verify that the parity is correct

The flow is the same as in the RAID-5 case, and reuses some routines, namely:
1/ ops_complete_postxor (renamed to ops_complete_reconstruct)
2/ ops_complete_compute (updated to set up to 2 targets uptodate)
3/ ops_run_check (renamed to ops_run_check_p for xor parity checks)

NeilBrown 67ac6011db md/raid5: allow new reshape modes to be restarted in the middle.
md/raid5 doesn't allow a reshape to restart if it involves writing
over the same part of disk that it would be reading from.
This happens at the beginning of a reshape that increases the number
of devices, at the end of a reshape that decreases the number of
devices, and continuously for a reshape that does not change the
number of devices.

The current code is correct for the "increase number of devices"
case as the critical section at the start is handled by userspace
performing a backup.

It does not work for reducing the number of devices, or the
no-change case.
For 'reducing', we need to invert the test.  For no-change we cannot
really be sure things will be safe, so simply require the array
to be read-only, which is how the user-space code which carefully
starts such arrays works.

The ->quiesce method is not supposed to stop resync/recovery/reshape,
just normal IO.
But in raid5 we don't have a way to know which stripes are being
used for normal IO and which for resync etc, so we need to wait for
all stripes to be idle to be sure that all writes have completed.

However reshape keeps at least some stripe busy for an extended period
of time, so a call to raid5_quiesce can block for several seconds
needlessly.
So arrange for reshape etc to pause briefly while raid5_quiesce is
trying to quiesce the array so that the active_stripes count can

NeilBrown a8c906ca3f md/raid5 - avoid deadlocks in get_active_stripe during reshape
md has functionality to 'quiesce' and array so that all pending
IO completed and no new IO starts.  This is used to achieve a
stable state before making internal changes.

Currently this quiescing applies equally to normal IO, resync
IO, and reshape IO.
However there is a problem with applying it to reshape IO.
Reshape can have multiple 'stripe_heads' that must be active together.
If the quiesce come between allocating the first and the last of
such a collection, then we deadlock, as the last will not be allocated
until the quiesce is lifted, the quiesce will not be lifted until the
first (which has been allocated) gets used, and that first cannot be
used until the last is allocated.

It is not necessary to inhibit reshape IO when a quiesce is
requested.  Those places in the code that require a full quiesce will
ensure the reshape thread is not running at all.

So allow reshape requests to get access to new stripe_heads without
being blocked by a 'quiesce'.

This only affects in-place reshapes (i.e. where the array does not
grow or shrink) and these are only newly supported.  So this patch is
not needed in earlier kernels.

In support of inter-channel chaining async_tx utilizes an ack flag to
gate whether a dependent operation can be chained to another.  While the
flag is not set the chain can be considered open for appending.  Setting
the ack flag closes the chain and flags the descriptor for garbage
collection.  The ASYNC_TX_DEP_ACK flag essentially means "close the
chain after adding this dependency".  Since each operation can only have
one child the api now implicitly sets the ack flag at dependency
submission time.  This removes an unnecessary management burden from
clients of the api.

NeilBrown c03f6a1969 md: update sync_completed and reshape_position even more often.
There are circumstances when a user-space process might need to
"oversee" a resync/reshape process.  For example when doing an
in-place reshape of a raid5, it is prudent to take a backup of each
section before reshaping it as this is the only way to provide
safety against an unplanned shutdown (i.e. crash/power failure).

The sync_max sysfs value can be used to stop the resync from
advancing beyond a particular point.
So user-space can:
  suspend IO to the first section and back it up
  set 'sync_max' to the end of the section
  wait for 'sync_completed' to reach that point
  resume IO on the first section and move on to the next section.

However this process requires the kernel and user-space to run in
lock-step which could introduce unnecessary delays.

It would be better if a 'double buffered' approach could be used with
userspace and kernel space working on different sections with the
'next' section always ready when the 'current' section is finished.

One problem with implementing this is that sync_completed is only
guaranteed to be updated when the sync process reaches sync_max.
(it is updated on a time basis at other times, but it is hard to rely
on that).  This defeats some of the double buffering.

With this patch, sync_completed (and reshape_position) get updated as
the current position approaches sync_max, so there is room for
userspace to advance sync_max early without losing updates.

To be precise, sync_completed is updated when the current sync
position reaches half way between the current value of sync_completed
and the value of sync_max.  This will usually be a good time for user
space to update sync_max.

If sync_max does not get updated, the updates to sync_completed
(together with associated metadata updates) will occur at an
exponentially increasing frequency which will get unreasonably fast
(one update every page) immediately before the process hits sync_max
and stops.  So the update rate will be unreasonably fast only for an
insignificant period of time.

NeilBrown acb180b0e3 md: improve usefulness and accuracy of sysfs file md/sync_completed.
The sync_completed file reports how much of a resync (or recovery or
reshape) has been completed.
However due to the possibility of out-of-order completion of writes,
it is not certain to be accurate.

We have an internal value - mddev->curr_resync_completed - which is an
accurate value (though it might not always be quite so uptodate).

So:
 - make curr_resync_completed be uptodate a little more often,
   particularly when raid5 reshape updates status in the metadata
 - report curr_resync_completed in the sysfs file
 - allow poll/select to report all updates to md/sync_completed.

This makes sync_completed completed usable by any external metadata
handler that wants to record this status information in its metadata.

NeilBrown c8f517c444 md/raid5 revise rules for when to update metadata during reshape
We currently update the metadata :
 1/ every 3Megabytes
 2/ When the place we will write new-layout data to is recorded in
    the metadata as still containing old-layout data.

Rule one exists to avoid having to re-do too much reshaping in the
face of a crash/restart.  So it should really be time based rather
than size based.  So change it to "every 10 seconds".

Rule two turns out to be too harsh when restriping an array
'in-place', as in that case the metadata much be updates for every
stripe.
For the in-place update, it can only possibly be safe from a crash if
some user-space program data a backup of every e.g. few hundred
stripes before allowing them to be reshaped.  In that case, the
constant metadata update is pointless.
So only update the metadata if the new metadata will report that the
end of the 'old-layout' data is beyond where we are currently
writing 'new-layout' data.

NeilBrown ab69ae12ce md/raid5: be more careful about write ordering when reshaping.
When we are reshaping an array, it is very important that we read
the data from a particular sector offset before writing new data
at that offset.

In most cases when growing or shrinking an array we read long before
we even consider writing.  But when restriping an array without
changing it size, there is a small possibility that we might have
some data to available write before the read has happened at the same
location.  This would require some stripes to be in cache already.

To guard against this small possibility, we check, before writing,
that the 'old' stripe at the same location is not in the process of
being read.  And we ensure that we mark all 'source' stripes as such
before allowing new 'destination' stripes to proceed.

remember what the chunk size was before the reshape that is currently

This seems like duplication with "chunk_size" and "new_chunk" in
mddev_t, and to some extent it is, but there are differences.
The values in mddev_t are always defined and often the same.
The prev* values are only defined if a reshape is underway.

Also (and more significantly) the raid5_conf_t values will be changed
at the same time (inside an appropriate lock) that the reshape is
started by setting reshape_position.  In contrast, the new_chunk value
is set when the sysfs file is written which could be well before the
reshape starts.

of disks (chunk parity or chunk size).  So make the difference more

NeilBrown ec32a2bd35 md: allow number of drives in raid5 to be reduced
When reshaping a raid5 to have fewer devices, we work from the end of
the array to the beginning.
md_do_sync gives addresses to sync_request that go from the beginning
to the end.  So largely ignore them use the internal state variable
"reshape_progress" to keep track of what to do next.

Never allow the size to be reduced below the minimum (4 for raid6,
3 otherwise).

We require that the size of the array has already been reduced before
the array is reshaped to a smaller size.  This is because simply
reducing the size is an easily reversible operation, while the reshape
is immediately destructive and so is not reversible for the blocks at
the ends of the devices.
Thus to reshape an array to have fewer devices, you must first write
an appropriately small size to md/array_size.

When reshape finished, we remove any drives that are no longer
needed and fix up ->degraded.

notices that the reshape has finished be sync_request being
given a large value, and handles any cleanup them.

This patch changes it so md_check_recovery calls into an

The clean-up from sync_request can do things that need to be
done promptly, typically things local to the raid5_conf_t
structure.

The "finish_reshape" method is called under the mddev_lock
so it can do things involving reconfiguring the device.

This allows us to get rid of md_set_array_sectors_locked, which
would have caused a deadlock if you tried to stop and array

   b) A reshape attempt that reduces the default size to less than the set
      array size should be blocked
2/ once userspace sets the size the kernel will not change it
3/ writing 'default' to this attribute returns control of the size to the
   kernel and reverts to the size reported by the personality

Also, convert locations that need to know the default size from directly
reading ->array_sectors to <pers>_size.  Resync/reshape operations
always follow the default size.

Finally, fixup other locations that read a number of 1k-blocks from

This makes moving an array to a machine with a larger PAGE_SIZE, or

For RAID10 and RAID4/5/6, this is non-trivial to fix as the resync
process works on whole pages at a time, and assumes them to be wholly
within a stripe.  For other raid personalities, this restriction is
not needed at all and can be dropped.

  is not part0.  ie. part_stat_*() are now essentially all_stat_*().

* {disk|all}_stat_*() are gone.

* part_round_stats() is updated similary.  It handles part0 stats
  automatically and disk_round_stats() is killed.

* part_{inc|dec}_in_fligh() is implemented which automatically updates
  part0 stats for parts other than part0.

* disk_map_sector_rcu() is updated to return part0 if no part matches.
  Combined with the above changes, this makes NULL special case
  handling in callers unnecessary.

* Separate stats show code paths for disk are collapsed into part
  stats show code paths.

* Rename disk_stat_lock/unlock() to part_stat_lock/unlock()

While at it, reposition stat handling macros a bit and add missing
parentheses around macro parameters.

Tejun Heo c995905916 block: fix diskstats access
There are two variants of stat functions - ones prefixed with double
underbars which don't care about preemption and ones without which
disable preemption before manipulating per-cpu counters.  It's unclear
whether the underbarred ones assume that preemtion is disabled on
entry as some callers don't do that.

This patch unifies diskstats access by implementing disk_stat_lock()
and disk_stat_unlock() which take care of both RCU (for partition
access) and preemption (for per-cpu counter access).  diskstats access
should always be enclosed between the two functions.  As such, there's
no need for the versions which disables preemption.  They're removed
and double underbars ones are renamed to drop the underbars.  As an
extra argument is added, there's no danger of using the old version
unconverted.

disk_stat_lock() uses get_cpu() and returns the cpu index and all
diskstat functions which access per-cpu counters now has @cpu
argument to help RT.

This change adds RCU or preemption operations at some places but also
collapses several preemption ops into one at others.  Overall, the
performance difference should be negligible as all involved ops are
very lightweight per-cpu ones.

NeilBrown ac4090d24c Don't let a blocked_rdev interfere with read request in raid5/6
When we have externally managed metadata, we need to mark a failed
device as 'Blocked' and not allow any writes until that device
have been marked as faulty in the metadata and the Blocked flag has
been removed.

However it is perfectly OK to allow read requests when there is a
Blocked device, and with a readonly array, there may not be any
metadata-handler watching for blocked devices.

So in raid5/raid6 only allow a Blocked device to interfere with
Write request or resync.  Read requests go through untouched.

raid1 and raid10 already differentiate between read and write
properly.

NeilBrown dba034eef2 Fail safely when trying to grow an array with a write-intent bitmap.
We cannot currently change the size of a write-intent bitmap.
So if we change the size of an array which has such a bitmap, it
tries to set bits beyond the end of the bitmap.

For now, simply reject any request to change the size of an array
which has a bitmap.  mdadm can remove the bitmap and add a new one
after the array has changed size.

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.

Note, the compute operation that is performed in the course of doing a 'repair'

check result is not zero) is tracked separately with the 'check_state'

moving this check out to handle_issuing_new_read_requests5 the helper routine
__handle_issuing_new_read_requests5 can be simplified.
