Shaohua Li 79bf31a3b2 md: fix a race condition for flush request handling
md_submit_flush_data calls pers->make_request, which missed the suspend check.
Fix it with the new md_handle_request API.

Shaohua Li 393debc23c md: separate request handling
With commit cc27b0c78c, pers->make_request could bail out without handling
the bio. If that happens, we should retry.  The commit fixes md_make_request
but not other call sites. Separate the request handling part, so other call
sites can use it.

Alexey Obitotskiy 5492c46e94 md: notify about new spare disk in the container
In case of external metadata arrays spare disks are added to containers
first. mdadm keeps monitoring /proc/mdstat output and when spare disk is
available, it moves it from the container to the array. The problem is
there is no notification of new spare disk in the container and mdadm
waits a long time (until timeout) before it takes the action.

Christoph Hellwig 74d46992e0 block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O.  The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open.  Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device.  But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

NeilBrown 81fe48e9aa md: fix test in md_write_start()
md_write_start() needs to clear the in_sync flag is it is set, or if
there might be a race with set_in_sync() such that the later will
set it very soon.  In the later case it is sufficient to take the
spinlock to synchronize with set_in_sync(), and then set the flag
if needed.

The current test is incorrect.
It should be:
  if "flag is set" or "race is possible"

"flag is set" is trivially "mddev->in_sync".
"race is possible" should be tested by "mddev->sync_checkers".

If sync_checkers is 0, then there can be no race.  set_in_sync() will
wait in percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_sync() for an RCU grace period,
and as md_write_start() holds the rcu_read_lock(), set_in_sync() will
be sure ot see the update to writes_pending.

If sync_checkers is > 0, there could be race.  If md_write_start()
happened entirely between
		if (!mddev->in_sync &&
		    percpu_ref_is_zero(&mddev->writes_pending)) {
and
			mddev->in_sync = 1;
in set_in_sync(), then it would not see that is_sync had been set,
and set_in_sync() would not see that writes_pending had been
incremented.

This bug means that in_sync is sometimes not set when it should be.
Consequently there is a small chance that the array will be marked as
"clean" when in fact it is inconsistent.

NeilBrown 33182d15c6 md: always clear ->safemode when md_check_recovery gets the mddev lock.
If ->safemode == 1, md_check_recovery() will try to get the mddev lock
and perform various other checks.
If mddev->in_sync is zero, it will call set_in_sync, and clear
->safemode.  However if mddev->in_sync is not zero, ->safemode will not
be cleared.

When md_check_recovery() drops the mddev lock, the thread is woken
up again.  Normally it would just check if there was anything else to
do, find nothing, and go to sleep.  However as ->safemode was not
cleared, it will take the mddev lock again, then wake itself up
when unlocking.

This results in an infinite loop, repeatedly calling
md_check_recovery(), which RCU or the soft-lockup detector
will eventually complain about.

Prior to commit 4ad23a9764 ("MD: use per-cpu counter for
writes_pending"), safemode would only be set to one when the
writes_pending counter reached zero, and would be cleared again
when writes_pending is incremented.  Since that patch, safemode
is set more freely, but is not reliably cleared.

So in md_check_recovery() clear ->safemode before checking ->in_sync.

NeilBrown 5a85071c2c md: use a separate bio_set for synchronous IO.
md devices allocate a bio_set and use it for two
distinct purposes.
mddev->bio_set is used to clone bios as part of sending
upper level requests down to lower level devices,
and it is also use for synchronous IO such as superblock
and bitmap updates, and for correcting read errors.

This multiple usage can lead to deadlocks.  It is likely
that cloned bios might be queued for write and to be
waiting for a metadata update before the write can be permitted.
If the cloning exhausted mddev->bio_set, the metadata update
may not be able to proceed.

This scenario has been seen during heavy testing, with lots of IO and
lots of memory pressure.

Address this by adding a new bio_set specifically for synchronous IO.
All synchronous IO goes directly to the underlying device and is not
queued at the md level, so request using entries from the new
mddev->sync_set will complete in a timely fashion.
Requests that use mddev->bio_set will sometimes need to wait
for synchronous IO, but will no longer risk deadlocking that iO.

Also: small simplification in mddev_put(): there is no need to
wait until the spinlock is released before calling bioset_free().

NeilBrown 9b10f6a9c2 block: remove bio_clone() and all references.
bio_clone() is no longer used.
Only bio_clone_bioset() or bio_clone_fast().
This is for the best, as bio_clone() used fs_bio_set,
and filesystems are unlikely to want to use bio_clone().

So remove bio_clone() and all references.
This includes a fix to some incorrect documentation.

NeilBrown 011067b056 blk: replace bioset_create_nobvec() with a flags arg to bioset_create()
"flags" arguments are often seen as good API design as they allow
easy extensibility.
bioset_create_nobvec() is implemented internally as a variation in
flags passed to __bioset_create().

To support future extension, make the internal structure part of the
API.
i.e. add a 'flags' argument to bioset_create() and discard
bioset_create_nobvec().

Note that the bio_split allocations in drivers/md/raid* do not need
the bvec mempool - they should have used bioset_create_nobvec().

NeilBrown cc27b0c78c md: fix deadlock between mddev_suspend() and md_write_start()
If mddev_suspend() races with md_write_start() we can deadlock
with mddev_suspend() waiting for the request that is currently
in md_write_start() to complete the ->make_request() call,
and md_write_start() waiting for the metadata to be updated
to mark the array as 'dirty'.
As metadata updates done by md_check_recovery() only happen then
the mddev_lock() can be claimed, and as mddev_suspend() is often
called with the lock held, these threads wait indefinitely for each
other.

We fix this by having md_write_start() abort if mddev_suspend()
is happening, and ->make_request() aborts if md_write_start()
aborted.
md_make_request() can detect this abort, decrease the ->active_io
count, and wait for mddev_suspend().

Commit b685d3d65a "block: treat REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH as

REQ_PREFLUSH flags from a bio when the storage doesn't report volatile
write cache and thus write effectively becomes asynchronous which can
lead to performance regressions

Fix the problem by making sure all bios which are synchronous are
properly marked with REQ_SYNC.

Since commit 6791875e2e ("md: make reconfig_mutex optional for writes
to md sysfs files.") changing array_state to 'active' does not use
mddev_lock() and will not cause a deadlock with md_allow_write(). This
revert simplifies userspace tools that write to sysfs attributes like
"stripe_cache_size" or "consistency_policy" because it removes the need
for special handling for external metadata arrays, checking for EAGAIN
and retrying the write.

as part of processing the REMOVE event.

There is an alternate mechanism for creating arrays

When using tools that work with this parameter, it is
best to disable the old semantics.

NeilBrown 039b7225e6 md: allow creation of mdNNN arrays via md_mod/parameters/new_array
The intention when creating the "new_array" parameter and the
possibility of having array names line "md_HOME" was to transition
away from the old way of creating arrays and to eventually only use
this new way.

The "old" way of creating array is to create a device node in /dev
and then open it.  The act of opening creates the array.
This is problematic because sometimes the device node can be opened
when we don't want to create an array.  This can easily happen
when some rule triggered by udev looks at a device as it is being
destroyed.  The node in /dev continues to exist for a short period
after an array is stopped, and opening it during this time recreates
the array (as an inactive array).

Unfortunately no clear plan for the transition was created.  It is now
time to fix that.

This patch allows devices with numeric names, like "md999" to be
created by writing to "new_array".  This will only work if the minor
number given is not already in use.  This will allow mdadm to
support the creation of arrays with numbers > 511 (currently not
possible) by writing to new_array.
mdadm can, at some point, use this approach to create *all* arrays,
which will allow the transition to only using the new-way.

NeilBrown 4ad23a9764 MD: use per-cpu counter for writes_pending
The 'writes_pending' counter is used to determine when the
array is stable so that it can be marked in the superblock
as "Clean".  Consequently it needs to be updated frequently
but only checked for zero occasionally.  Recent changes to
raid5 cause the count to be updated even more often - once
per 4K rather than once per bio.  This provided
justification for making the updates more efficient.

So we replace the atomic counter a percpu-refcount.
This can be incremented and decremented cheaply most of the
time, and can be switched to "atomic" mode when more
precise counting is needed.  As it is possible for multiple
threads to want a precise count, we introduce a
"sync_checker" counter to count the number of threads
in "set_in_sync()", and only switch the refcount back
to percpu mode when that is zero.

We need to be careful about races between set_in_sync()
setting ->in_sync to 1, and md_write_start() setting it
to zero.  md_write_start() holds the rcu_read_lock()
while checking if the refcount is in percpu mode.  If
it is, then we know a switch to 'atomic' will not happen until
after we call rcu_read_unlock(), in which case set_in_sync()
will see the elevated count, and not set in_sync to 1.
If it is not in percpu mode, we take the mddev->lock to
ensure proper synchronization.

It is no longer possible to quickly check if the count is zero, which
we previously did to update a timer or to schedule the md_thread.
So now we do these every time we decrement that counter, but make
sure they are fast.

mod_timer() already optimizes the case where the timeout value doesn't
actually change.  We leverage that further by always rounding off the
jiffies to the timeout value.  This may delay the marking of 'clean'
slightly, but ensure we only perform atomic operation here when absolutely
needed.

md_wakeup_thread() current always calls wake_up(), even if
THREAD_WAKEUP is already set.  That too can be optimised to avoid
calls to wake_up().

NeilBrown 55cc39f345 md: close a race with setting mddev->in_sync
If ->in_sync is being set just as md_write_start() is being called,
it is possible that set_in_sync() won't see the elevated
->writes_pending, and md_write_start() won't see the set ->in_sync.

To close this race, re-test ->writes_pending after setting ->in_sync,
and add memory barriers to ensure the increment of ->writes_pending
will be seen by the time of this second test, or the new ->in_sync
will be seen by md_write_start().

Add a spinlock to array_state_show() to ensure this temporary
instability is never visible from userspace.

NeilBrown 6497709b5d md: factor out set_in_sync()
Three separate places in md.c check if the number of active
writes is zero and, if so, sets mddev->in_sync.

There are a few differences, but there shouldn't be:
- it is always appropriate to notify the change in
  sysfs_state, and there is no need to do this outside a
  spin-locked region.
- we never need to check ->recovery_cp.  The state of resync
  is not relevant for whether there are any pending writes
  or not (which is what ->in_sync reports).

So create set_in_sync() which does the correct tests and
makes the correct changes, and call this in all three
places.

Any behaviour changes here a minor and cosmetic.

NeilBrown 497280509f md/raid5: use md_write_start to count stripes, not bios
We use md_write_start() to increase the count of pending writes, and
md_write_end() to decrement the count.  We currently count bios
submitted to md/raid5.  Change it count stripe_heads that a WRITE bio
has been attached to.

So now, raid5_make_request() calls md_write_start() and then
md_write_end() to keep the count elevated during the setup of the
request.

add_stripe_bio() calls md_write_start() for each stripe_head, and the
completion routines always call md_write_end(), instead of only
calling it when raid5_dec_bi_active_stripes() returns 0.
make_discard_request also calls md_write_start/end().

The parallel between md_write_{start,end} and use of bi_phys_segments
can be seen in that:
 Whenever we set bi_phys_segments to 1, we now call md_write_start.
 Whenever we increment it on non-read requests with
   raid5_inc_bi_active_stripes(), we now call md_write_start().
 Whenever we decrement bi_phys_segments on non-read requsts with
    raid5_dec_bi_active_stripes(), we now call md_write_end().

This reduces our dependence on keeping a per-bio count of active
stripes in bi_phys_segments.

md_write_inc() is added which parallels md_write_start(), but requires
that a write has already been started, and is certain never to sleep.
This can be used inside a spinlocked region when adding to a write
request.

Guoqing Jiang 48df498daf md: move bitmap_destroy to the beginning of __md_stop
Since we have switched to sync way to handle METADATA_UPDATED
msg for md-cluster, then process_metadata_update is depended
on mddev->thread->wqueue.

With the new change, clustered raid could possible hang if
array received a METADATA_UPDATED msg after array unregistered
mddev->thread, so we need to stop clustered raid (bitmap_destroy
-> bitmap_free -> md_cluster_stop) earlier than unregister
thread (mddev_detach -> md_unregister_thread).

And this change should be safe for non-clustered raid since
all writes are stopped before the destroy. Also in md_run,
we activate the personality (pers->run()) before activating
the bitmap (bitmap_create()). So it is pleasingly symmetric
to stop the bitmap (bitmap_destroy()) before stopping the
personality (__md_stop() calls pers->free()), we achieve this
by move bitmap_destroy to the beginning of __md_stop.

But we don't want to break the codes for waiting behind IO as
Shaohua mentioned, so introduce bitmap_wait_behind_writes to
call the codes, and call the new fun in both mddev_detach and
bitmap_destroy, then we will not break original behind IO code
and also fit the new condition well.

Allow writing to 'consistency_policy' attribute when the array is
active. Add a new function 'change_consistency_policy' to the
md_personality operations structure to handle the change in the
personality code. Values "ppl" and "resync" are accepted and
turn PPL on and off respectively.

When enabling PPL its location and size should first be set using
'ppl_sector' and 'ppl_size' attributes and a valid PPL header should be
written at this location on each member device.

Enabling or disabling PPL is performed under a suspended array.  The
raid5_reset_stripe_cache function frees the stripe cache and allocates
it again in order to allocate or free the ppl_pages for the stripes in
the stripe cache.

Add 'ppl_sector' and 'ppl_size' for rdev, which describe the location

active members if the array is started and PPL is enabled, so in the
setter functions only basic checks are performed. More checks are done
in ppl_validate_rdev() when starting the log.

These attributes are writable to allow enabling PPL for external
metadata arrays and (later) to enable/disable PPL for a running array.

However, it is possible that some of them can't do
it due to failure (bitmap_resize could fail). So
we need to consider the issue before we set the
capacity unconditionally, and we use below steps
to perform sanity check.

1. A change the size, then broadcast METADATA_UPDATED
   msg.
2. B and C receive METADATA_UPDATED change the size
   excepts call set_capacity, sync_size is not update
   if the change failed. Also call bitmap_update_sb
   to sync sb to disk.
3. A checks other node's sync_size, if sync_size has
   been updated in all nodes, then send CHANGE_CAPACITY
   msg otherwise send msg to revert previous change.
4. B and C call set_capacity if receive CHANGE_CAPACITY
   msg, otherwise pers->resize will be called to restore
   the old value.

Guoqing Jiang 0ba959774e md-cluster: use sync way to handle METADATA_UPDATED msg
Previously, when node received METADATA_UPDATED msg, it just
need to wakeup mddev->thread, then md_reload_sb will be called
eventually.

We taken the asynchronous way to avoid a deadlock issue, the
deadlock issue could happen when one node is receiving the
METADATA_UPDATED msg (wants reconfig_mutex) and trying to run
the path:

md_check_recovery -> mddev_trylock(hold reconfig_mutex)
                  -> md_update_sb-metadata_update_start
		     (want EX on token however token is
		      got by the sending node)

Since we will support resizing for clustered raid, and we
need the metadata update handling to be synchronous so that
the initiating node can detect failure, so we need to change
the way for handling METADATA_UPDATED msg.

But, we obviously need to avoid above deadlock with the
sync way. To make this happen, we considered to not hold
reconfig_mutex to call md_reload_sb, if some other thread
has already taken reconfig_mutex and waiting for the 'token',
then process_recvd_msg() can safely call md_reload_sb()
without taking the mutex. This is because we can be certain
that no other thread will take the mutex, and we also certain
that the actions performed by md_reload_sb() won't interfere
with anything that the other thread is in the middle of.

To make this more concrete, we added a new cinfo->state bit
        MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD

Which is set in lock_token() just before dlm_lock_sync() is
called, and cleared just after. As lock_token() is always
called with reconfig_mutex() held (the specific case is the
resync_info_update which is distinguished well in previous
patch), if process_recvd_msg() finds that the new bit is set,
then the mutex must be held by some other thread, and it will
keep waiting.

So process_metadata_update() can call md_reload_sb() if either
mddev_trylock() succeeds, or if MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD
is set. The tricky bit is what to do if neither of these apply.
We need to wait. Fortunately mddev_unlock() always calls wake_up()
on mddev->thread->wqueue. So we can get lock_token() to call
wake_up() on that when it sets the bit.

There are also some related changes inside this commit:
1. remove RELOAD_SB related codes since there are not valid anymore.
2. mddev is added into md_cluster_info then we can get mddev inside
   lock_token.
3. add new parameter for lock_token to distinguish reconfig_mutex
   is held or not.

And, we need to set MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD in below:
1. set it before unregister thread, otherwise a deadlock could
   appear if stop a resyncing array.
   This is because md_unregister_thread(&cinfo->recv_thread) is
   blocked by recv_daemon -> process_recvd_msg
			  -> process_metadata_update.
   To resolve the issue, MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD is
   also need to be set before unregister thread.
2. set it in metadata_update_start to fix another deadlock.
	a. Node A sends METADATA_UPDATED msg (held Token lock).
	b. Node B wants to do resync, and is blocked since it can't
	   get Token lock, but MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD is
	   not set since the callchain
	   (md_do_sync -> sync_request
        	       -> resync_info_update
		       -> sendmsg
		       -> lock_comm -> lock_token)
	   doesn't hold reconfig_mutex.
	c. Node B trys to update sb (held reconfig_mutex), but stopped
	   at wait_event() in metadata_update_start since we have set
	   MD_CLUSTER_SEND_LOCK flag in lock_comm (step 2).
	d. Then Node B receives METADATA_UPDATED msg from A, of course
	   recv_daemon is blocked forever.
   Since metadata_update_start always calls lock_token with reconfig_mutex,
   we need to set MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD here as well, and
   lock_token don't need to set it twice unless lock_token is invoked from
   lock_comm.

Finally, thanks to Neil for his great idea and help!
