For a long time, the receiving side has spread "too large" incoming
requests over multiple bios. No need to shrink our max_bio_size
(max_hw_sectors) if the peer is reconfigured to use a different storage.
The problem manifests itself if we are not the top of the device stack
(DRBD is used a LVM PV).
A hardware reconfiguration on the peer may cause the supported
max_bio_size to shrink, and the connection handshake would now
unnecessarily shrink the max_bio_size on the active node.
There is no way to notify upper layers that they have to "re-stack"
their limits. So they won't notice at all, and may keep submitting bios
that are suddenly considered "too large for device".
We already check for compatibility and ignore changes on the peer,
the code only was masked out unless we have a fully established connection.
We just need to allow it a bit earlier during the handshake.
Also consider max_hw_sectors in our merge bvec function, just in case.

The sanity check when receiving P_BARRIER_ACK does expect all write
requests with a given req->epoch to have been either all replicated,
or all not replicated.
Because req->epoch was assigned before calling maybe_pull_ahead(),
this expectation was not met, leading to an off-by-one in the sanity
check, and further to a "Protocol Error".
Fix: move the call to maybe_pull_ahead() a few lines up,
and assign req->epoch only after that.

When we notice a disk failure on the receiving side,
we stop sending it new incoming writes.
Depending on exact timing of various events, the same transfer log epoch
could end up containing both replicated (before we noticed the failure)
and local-only requests (after we noticed the failure).
The sanity checks in tl_release(), called when receiving a
P_BARRIER_ACK, check that the ack'ed transfer log epoch matches
the expected epoch, and the number of contained writes matches
the number of ack'ed writes.
In this case, they counted both replicated and local-only writes,
but the peer only acknowledges those it has seen. We get a mismatch,
resulting in a protocol error and disconnect/reconnect cycle.
Messages logged are
"BAD! BarrierAck #%u received with n_writes=%u, expected n_writes=%u!\n"
A similar issue can also be triggered when starting a resync while
having a healthy replication link, by invalidating one side, forcing a
full sync, or attaching to a diskless node.
Fix this by closing the current epoch if the state changes in a way
that would cause the replication intent of the next write.
Epochs now contain either only non-replicated,
or only replicated writes.

If we detach due to local read-error (which sets a bit in the bitmap),
stay Primary, and then re-attach (which re-reads the bitmap from disk),
we potentially lost the "out-of-sync" (or, "bad block") information in
the bitmap.
Always (try to) write out the changed bitmap pages before going diskless.
That way, we don't lose the bit for the bad block,
the next resync will fetch it from the peer, and rewrite
it locally, which may result in block reallocation in some
lower layer (or the hardware), and thereby "heal" the bad blocks.
If the bitmap writeout errors out as well, we will (again: try to)
mark the "we need a full sync" bit in our super block,
if it was a READ error; writes are covered by the activity log already.
If that superblock does not make it to disk either, we are sorry.
Maybe we just lost an entire disk or controller (or iSCSI connection),
and there actually are no bad blocks at all, so we don't need to
re-fetch from the peer, there is no "auto-healing" necessary.

We use the RQ_POSTPONED flag to mark a request for several reasons.
It may be a conflicting request in a dual-primary setup,
where conflict detection and resolution on the peer decided that
this request needs to be re-submitted, it needs to re-enter
drbd_make_request() to fix the data divergence caused by these
conflicting, partially overlapping, quasi-simultaneous requests.
In this case we need to mark the corresponding area as out-of-sync,
before we call drbd_al_complete_io().
We also use the RQ_POSTPONED flag to just "push back" a request,
before even processing it, if IO is suspended for some reason.
In this case, as this request was neither submitted nor sent yet,
we must not touch the bitmap.

Requests of an acked epoch are stored on the barrier_acked_requests list. In
case the private bio of such a request completes while IO on the drbd device
is suspended [req_mod(completed_ok)] then the request stays there.
When thawing IO because the fence_peer handler returned, then we use
tl_clear() to apply the connection_lost_while_pending event to all requests
on the transfer-log and the barrier_acked_requests list.
Up to now the connection_lost_while_pending event was not applied
on requests on the barrier_acked_requests list. Fixed that.
I.e. now the connection_lost_while_pending and resend events are

DRBD has a concept of request epochs or reorder-domains,

Older DRBD is not able to handle zero-sized requests at all,
so we need to map empty flushes to these drbd barriers.

(unless not supported or explicitly disabled),

Sometimes, a lower level block device turns into a tar-pit,
not completing requests at all, not even doing error completion.
We can force-detach from such a tar-pit block device,
either by disk-timeout, or by drbdadm detach --force.
Queueing for retry only from the request destruction path (kref hit 0)
makes it impossible to retry affected read requests from the peer,
until the local IO completion happened, as the locally submitted
bio holds a reference on the drbd request object.
If we can only complete READs when the local completion finally
happens, we would not need to force-detach in the first place.
Instead, queue for retry where we otherwise had done the error completion.

DRBD requests (struct drbd_request) are already on the per resource
transfer log list, and carry their epoch number. We do not need to
additionally link them on other ring lists in other structs.
The drbd sender thread can recognize itself when to send a P_BARRIER,
by tracking the currently processed epoch, and how many writes
have been processed for that epoch.
If the epoch of the request to be processed does not match the currently
processed epoch, any writes have been processed in it, a P_BARRIER for
this last processed epoch is send out first.
The new epoch then becomes the currently processed epoch.
To not get stuck in drbd_al_begin_io() waiting for P_BARRIER_ACK,
the sender thread also needs to handle the case when the current
epoch was closed already, but no new requests are queued yet,
and send out P_BARRIER as soon as possible.
This is done by comparing the per resource "current transfer log epoch"
(tconn->current_tle_nr) with the per connection "currently processed
epoch number" (tconn->send.current_epoch_nr), while waiting for
new requests to be processed in wait_for_work().
