Joe Thornber 0d200aefd4 dm thin: commit metadata before creating metadata snapshot
Userland sometimes sees a corrupt metadata block if metadata is changing
rapidly when a metadata snapshot is reserved for userland,  To make the
problem go away, commit before we take the metadata snapshot (which is a
sensible thing to do anyway).

The checksums mean userland spots this corruption immediately so there's
no risk of acting on incorrect data.  No corruption exists from the
kernel's point of view, and thin_check passes after pool shutdown.

I believe this is to do with shared blocks at the first level of the
{device, mapping} btree.  Prior to the metadata-snap support no sharing
at this level was possible, so this patch is only required after commit
cc8394d86f ("dm thin: provide userspace
access to pool metadata").

NeilBrown b357f04a67 md: fix up plugging (again).
The value returned by "mddev_check_plug" is only valid until the
next 'schedule' as that will unplug things.  This could happen at any
call to mempool_alloc.
So just calling mddev_check_plug at the start doesn't really make
sense.

So call it just before, or just after, queuing things for the thread.
As the action that happens at unplug is to wake the thread, this makes
lots of sense.
If we cannot add a plug (which requires a small GFP_ATOMIC alloc) we
wake thread immediately.

RAID5 is a bit different.  Requests are queued for the thread and the
thread is woken by release_stripe.  So we don't need to wake the
thread on failure.
However the thread doesn't perform certain actions when there is any
active plug, so it is important to install a plug before waking the
thread.  So for RAID5 we install the plug *before* queuing the request
and waking the thread.

Without this patch it is possible for raid1 or raid10 to queue a
request without then waking the thread, resulting in the array locking
up.

Also change raid10 to only flush_pending_write when there are not
active plugs, just like raid1.

This patch is suitable for 3.0 or later.  I plan to submit it to
-stable, but I'll like to let it spend a few weeks in mainline
first to be sure it is completely safe.

NeilBrown f456309106 md: support re-add of recovering devices.
We currently only allow a device to be re-added if it appear to be
in-sync.  This is overly restrictive as it may be desirable to re-add
a device that is in the middle of recovery.

So remove the test for "InSync" - the test on rdev->raid_disk is
sufficient to ensure that the re-add will succeed.

NeilBrown 32644afd89 md/raid1: fix bug in read_balance introduced by hot-replace
When we added hot_replace we doubled the number of devices
that could be in a RAID1 array.  So we doubled how far read_balance
would search.  Unfortunately we didn't double the point at which
it looped back to the beginning - so it effectively loops over
all non-replacement disks twice.
This doesn't cause bad behaviour, but it pointless and means we
never read from replacement devices.

Shaohua Li fab363b5ff raid5: delayed stripe fix
There isn't locking setting STRIPE_DELAYED and STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE bits, but
the two bits have relationship. A delayed stripe can be moved to hold list only
when preread active stripe count is below IO_THRESHOLD. If a stripe has both
the bits set, such stripe will be in delayed list and preread count not 0,
which will make such stripe never leave delayed list.

Having the 'name' arg optional and defaulting to the current
personality name is no necessary and leads to errors, as when
changing the level of an array we can end up using the
name of the old level instead of the new one.

So make it non-optional and always explicitly pass the name
of the level that the array will be.

fixed a hang, but introduced a refcounting in-balance so
that if the presence of bad-blocks ever caused an rdev to
be 'blocked' we would increment the refcount on the rdev and
never decrement it.

So added the needed rdev_dec_pending when md_wait_for_blocked_rdev

If a RAID5 has both a failed device and a device marked as
'WantReplacement', then we should preferentially replace the failed
device.
However the current code replaces whichever is found first.

for WantReplacement if nothing is failed or missing.

NeilBrown fc448a18ae md/raid10: Don't try to recovery unmatched (and unused) chunks.
If a RAID10 has an odd number of chunks - as might happen when there
are an odd number of devices - the last chunk has no pair and so is
not mirrored.  We don't store data there, but when recovering the last
device in an array we retry to recover that last chunk from a
non-existent location.  This results in an error, and the recovery
aborts.

When we get to that last chunk we should just stop - there is nothing
more to do anyway.

This bug has been present since the introduction of RAID10, so the
patch is appropriate for any -stable kernel.

Joe Thornber cc8394d86f dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadata
This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin
pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_.  This,
read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the
live target.

Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time.  The pool's status
line will give the block location for the current msnap.

Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the
thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows:

    thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev>

Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools

Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things
that have traditionally been kernel side tasks:

     i) Incremental backups.

     By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have
     changed over time.  Combined with data snapshots we can ensure
     the data doesn't change while we back it up.

     A short proof of concept script can be found here:

     https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb

     ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another.

     iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin.

     iv) Asyncronous replication.

Mikulas Patocka 35991652ba dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init
After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that
need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to
the device.  Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN.

With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl
too.  The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened.

Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd
(that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten
milliseconds.

Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due
to a path failure.  Such retries should be handled intelligently by the
code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI
commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write
commands).  For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that
if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously
marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which
might fail too.  It can be determined if the failure happens on the
device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all
SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

Mike Christie f220fd4efb dm mpath: delay retry of bypassed pg
If I/O needs retrying and only bypassed priority groups are available,
set the pg_init_delay_retry flag to wait before retrying.

If, for example, the reason for the bypass is that the controller is
getting reset or there is a firmware upgrade happening, retrying right
away would cause a flood of log messages and retries for what could be a
few seconds or even several minutes.

NeilBrown aba336bd1d md: raid1/raid10: fix problem with merge_bvec_fn
The new merge_bvec_fn which calls the corresponding function
in subsidiary devices requires that mddev->merge_check_needed
be set if any child has a merge_bvec_fn.

However were were only setting that when a device was hot-added,
not when a device was present from the start.

This bug was introduced in 3.4 so patch is suitable for 3.4.y
kernels.  However that are conflicts in raid10.c so a separate
patch will be needed for 3.4.y.

Jonathan Brassow 4f0a5e012c MD RAID1: Further conditionalize 'fullsync'
A RAID1 device does not necessarily need a fullsync if the bitmap can be used instead.

Similar to commit d6b212f4b1 in raid5.c, if a raid1
device can be brought back (i.e. from a transient failure) it shouldn't need a
complete resync.  Provided the bitmap is not to old, it will have recorded the areas
of the disk that need recovery.

Jonathan Brassow 81f382f9e0 DM RAID: Record and handle missing devices
Missing dm-raid devices should be recorded in the superblock

When specifying the devices that compose a DM RAID array, it is possible to denote
failed or missing devices with '-'s.  When this occurs, we must record this in the
superblock.  We do this by checking if the array position's data device is missing
and then forcing MD to record the superblock by setting 'MD_CHANGE_DEVS' in
'raid_resume'.  If we do not cause the superblock to be rewritten by the resume
function, it is possible for a stale superblock to be written by an out-going
in-active table (during 'raid_dtr').

Jonathan Brassow 47525e59e4 DM RAID: Set recovery flags on resume
Properly initialize MD recovery flags when resuming device-mapper devices.

When a device-mapper device is suspended, all I/O must stop.  This is done by
calling 'md_stop_writes' and 'mddev_suspend'.  These calls in-turn manipulate
the recovery flags - including setting 'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN'.  The DM device
may have been suspended while recovery was not yet complete, so the process
needs to pick-up where it left off.  Since 'mddev_resume' does not unset
'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN' and set 'MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED', we must do it ourselves.
'MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED' can safely be set in 'mddev_resume', but 'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN'
must be set outside of 'mddev_resume' due to how MD handles RAID reshaping.
(e.g.  It is possible for a user to delay reshaping a RAID5->RAID6 by purposefully
setting 'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN'.  Clearing it in 'mddev_resume' would override the
desired behavior.)

Because 'mddev_resume' already unconditionally calls 'md_wakeup_thread(mddev->thread)'
there is no need to make this call from 'raid_resume' since it calls 'mddev_resume'.

Also clean up where  level_store calls mddev_resume() - it current
duplicates some of the funcitons of that call. - NB

Use the same function for performing the initial allocation

There is no real value in freeing things the moment there is an error.
It is just as good to free the bitmap file and pages when the bitmap
is explicitly removed (and replaced?) or at shutdown.

With this gone, the bitmap will only disappear when the array is
quiescent, so we can remove some locking.

As the 'filemap' doesn't disappear now, include extra checks before
trying to write any of it out.
Also remove the check for "has it disappeared" in
