* Report number of requests waiting for activity log transactions.
* timing details of peer_requests to in_flight_summary.
* FLUSH details
DRBD devides the incoming request stream into "epochs",
in which peers are allowed to re-order writes independendly.
These epochs are separated by P_BARRIER on the replication link.
Such barrier packets, depending on configuration, may cause
the receiving side to drain the lower level device request queues
and call blkdev_issue_flush().
This is known to be an other major source of latency in DRBD.
Track timing details of calls to blkdev_issue_flush(),
and add them to in_flight_summary.

To be able to diagnose bottlenecks and root causes of "slow" IO on DRBD,

Try to close the race between open() and debugfs_remove_recursive()
from inside an object destructor.
Once open succeeds, the object should stay around.
Open should not succeed if the object has already reached its destructor.
This may be overkill, but to make that happen, we check for existence of
a parent directory, "stale-ness" of "this" dentry, and serialize
kref_get_unless_zero() on the outermost object relevant for this file
with d_delete() on this dentry (using the parent's i_mutex).

A request that is to be shipped to the peer goes through a few stages:
- queued
- sent, waiting for ack
- ack received, waiting for "barrier ack", which is re-order epoch being
closed on the peer by acknowledging a "cache flush" equivalent
on the lower level device.
In the later two stages, depending on protocol, we may have already
completed this request to the upper layers, so it won't be found anymore
on device->pending_master_completion[] lists.
Track the oldest request yet to be sent (req_next), the oldest not yet
acknowledged (req_ack_pending) and the oldest "still waiting for
something from the peer" (req_not_net_done), doing short list walks on
the transfer log to find the next pending one whenever such a request

In setups involving a DRBD-proxy and connections that experience a lot of
buffer-bloat it might be necessary to set ping-timeout to an
unusual high value. By default DRBD uses the same value to wait if a newly
established TCP-connection is stable. Since the DRBD-proxy is usually located
in the same data center such a long wait time may hinder DRBD's connect process.

Checksum based resync trades CPU cycles for network bandwidth,
in situations where we expect much of the to-be-resynced blocks
to be actually identical on both sides already.
In a "network hickup" scenario, it won't help:
all to-be-resynced blocks will typically be different.
The use case is for the resync of *potentially* different blocks
after crash recovery -- the crash recovery had marked larger areas
(those covered by the activity log) as need-to-be-resynced,
just in case. Most of those blocks will be identical.
This option makes it possible to configure checksum based resync,
but only actually use it for the first resync after primary crash.

This fixes one recent regresion,

The bug:
drbd_try_clear_on_disk_bm() assumed that all "count" bits have to be
accounted in the resync extent corresponding to the start sector.
Since we allow application requests to cross our "extent" boundaries,
this assumption is no longer true, resulting in possible misaccounting,
scary messages
("BAD! sector=12345s enr=6 rs_left=-7 rs_failed=0 count=58 cstate=..."),
and potentially, if the last bit to be cleared during resync would
reside in previously misaccounted resync extent, the resync would never
be recognized as finished, but would be "stalled" forever, even though
all blocks are in sync again and all bits have been cleared...
The regression was introduced by
drbd: get rid of atomic update on disk bitmap works
For an "empty" resync (rs_total == 0), we must not "finish" the
resync on the SyncSource before the SyncTarget knows all relevant
information (sync uuid). We need to wait for the full round-trip,
the SyncTarget will then explicitly notify us.
Also for normal, non-empty resyncs (rs_total > 0), the resync-finished
condition needs to be tested before the schedule() in wait_for_work, or

Just because it is the oldest not yet completed request
does not make it the oldest request waiting for disk.
Or waiting for the peer.
And we completely missed already completed requests
that would still hold references to activity log extents,
waiting only for the barrier ack.
Find two oldest not yet completely processed requests,
one that is still waiting for local completion,
and one that is still waiting for some response from the peer.
These may or may not be the same request object.
Then separately apply the network and disk timeouts, respectively.

In the implementation as it was, the two peers sent each other
a challenge, and expects the challenge hashed with the shared
secret back.
A attacker could simply wait for the challenge of the peer, and
send the same challenge back. Then it waits for the response, and
sends the same response back.
Prevent this by not accepting a challenge from the peer that is
the same as the challenge sent to the peer.

Once our sender thread needs to wait_for_work(),
and actually needs to schedule(), just before we do that,
we already check if it is useful to implicitly close the last epoch.
The condition was too strict: only implicitly close the epoch,
if there have been no new (write) requests at all.
The assumption was that if there were new requests, they would
always be communicated one way or another, and would send necessary
epoch separating barriers explicitly.
This is not always true, e.g. when becoming diskless,
or while explicitly starting a full resync.
The last communicated epoch could stay open for a long time,
locking down corresponding activity log extents.
It is safe to always implicitly send that last barrier, as soon as we
determin that there cannot be more requests in the last communicated
epoch, even if there have been (uncommunicated) new requests in new
epochs meanwhile.

When batching more updates to the activity log into single transactions,
we lost the ability for new requests to force themselves into the active
set: all preparation steps became non-blocking, and if all currently
hot extents keep busy, they could starve out new incoming requests
to cold extents for quite a while.
This can only happen if your IO backend accepts more IO operations per
average DRBD replication round trip time than you have al-extents
configured.
If we have incoming requests to cold extents,
at least do one blocking update per transaction.
In an artificial worst-case workload on SSD with an asynchronous 600 ms
replication link, with al-extents = 7 (the minimum we allow), and
concurrent full resynch, without this patch, some write requests have
been observed to be starved for 40 seconds.
With this patch, application observed a worst case latency of twice the
replication round trip time.

We want to store in persistent meta data what the peer DRBD can handle,
which, due to spreading requests to multiple bios,
may be more than its backing device can handle.
Otherwise, if a disconnected Primary temporarily loses access to its local data
as well, we may accidentally shrink the max-bio setting, portentially causing
already assembled, but not yet processed, application bios to be spuriously
failed due to device limits.

In the drbd make request function, specifically in
drbd_send_and_submit(), we decide whether we want to send the actual
write request, or only a "set this block out of sync" information.
We do so based on the current connection state, while holding the req_lock.
The connection state is not supposed to change while holding the req_lock.
But in drbd_start_resync, we did change that state anyways,
while only holding the global_state_lock, which is enough to change
sync-after dependencies (paused vs active resync), but
not good enough to change the connection state.
Fix: in drbd_start_resync, first grab the req_lock to serialize with
drbd_send_and_submit(), before grabbing the global_state_lock
to be able to evaluate the sync-after dependencies.

We plan to use genl_family->parallel_ops = true in the future,

For now, only selectively drop genl_lock() in drbd_set_role(),

When a 'cluster wide' disconnect executes, the result comes back
from the peer, and immediately after that the connection breaks
then _conn_rq_cond() reported back SS_CW_SUCCESS.
Therefore _conn_request_state() calls conn_set_state(), which
has a BUG() in it.
The BUG() is hit because conn_is_valid_transition() does not like
the transaction. Which goes back to is_valid_soft_transition()
returning SS_OUTDATE_WO_CONN.
This fix is to consider an error reported by is_valid_soft_transition()
even when the peer agreed to the transaction.

Before, application IO could pre-empt resync activity
for up to hardcoded 20 seconds per resync request.
A very busy server could throttle the effective resync bandwidth
down to one request per 20 seconds.
Now, we only let application IO pre-empt resync traffic
while the current resync rate estimate is above c-min-rate.
If you disable the c-min-rate throttle feature (set c-min-rate = 0),
application IO will no longer pre-empt resync traffic at all.

If max-buffers and socket buffer sizes are "too small" for the chosen
resync rate, this could lead potentially lead to a distributed deadlock,
which may or may not resolve itself via the "ko-count" and request
timeout mechanism, or could be resolved by forced disconnect.
One option to deal with this is proper configuration:
use larger max-buffer and socket buffers settings,
or reduce the resync rate.
But even with bad configuration we should not deadlock,
but "gracefully" recover.
The issue is avoided by using only up to max-buffers/2 for resync
requests, and by using max-buffers not as a hard limit for data buffer
allocations, but as a throttle threshold only.

Since 2010, "use rolling marks for resync speed calculation"
