This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must
not be done. As of the following commit:
be628be095 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()")
... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing
the helper to be removed.
However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs
where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least
in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has
been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference
with either calls.
Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most
about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock
slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based
on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures
latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs
get_current_state().
Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used,
which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with
increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite
unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

x86-64 (known to be fast for get_current()/this_cpu_read_stable() caching)
and ppc64 (with paca) show similar improvements in the unlink microbenches.
The small delta for ppc64 (2ms), does not represent the gains on the unlink

latency runs, but always within a 20 to 50ms increase), ppc was more constant.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.
The major parts of this pull request is:
- Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
private implementation instead of using the pig that is
fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.
- Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
writeback queue throttling code.
- Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.
- Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.
- Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
and Shaun.
- Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.
- Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
Christoph.
- A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
stopping and starting in blk-mq.
- Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.
- Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.
- Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart.
- A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name
here"

The mddev->flags are used for different purposes. There are a lot of
places we check/change the flags without masking unrelated flags, we
could check/change unrelated flags. These usage are most for superblock
write, so spearate superblock related flags. This should make the code
clearer and also fix real bugs.

Unfortunately key_string may theoretically contain whitespace even after
it's processed by dm_split_args(). The reason for this is DM core
supports escaping of almost all chars including any whitespace.
If userspace passes a key to the kernel in format ":32:logon:my_prefix:my\ key"
dm-crypt will look up key "my_prefix:my key" in kernel keyring service.
So far everything's fine.
Unfortunately if userspace later calls DM_TABLE_STATUS ioctl, it will not
receive back expected ":32:logon:my_prefix:my\ key" but the unescaped version
instead. Also userpace (most notably cryptsetup) is not ready to parse
single target argument containing (even escaped) whitespace chars and any
whitespace is simply taken as delimiter of another argument.
This effect is mitigated by the fact libdevmapper curently performs
double escaping of '\' char. Any user input in format "x\ x" is
transformed into "x\\ x" before being passed to the kernel. Nonetheless
dm-crypt may be used without libdevmapper. Therefore the near-term
solution to this is to reject any key string containing whitespace.

In dm_sm_metadata_create() we temporarily change the dm_space_map

sm_metadata) to 'bootstrap_ops' (whose .destroy function doesn't).
If dm_sm_metadata_create() fails in sm_ll_new_metadata() or
sm_ll_extend(), it exits back to dm_tm_create_internal(), which calls
dm_sm_destroy() with the intention of freeing the sm_metadata, but it
doesn't (because the dm_space_map operations is still set to
'bootstrap_ops').
Fix this by setting the dm_space_map operations back to 'ops' if

Remove CTR_FLAG_MAX_WRITE_BEHIND from raid4/5/6's valid ctr flags.
Only the md raid1 personality supports setting a maximum number
of "write behind" write IOs on any legs set to "write mostly".
"write mostly" enhances throughput with slow links/disks.
Technically the "write behind" value is a write intent bitmap
property only being respected by the raid1 personality. It allows a
maximum number of "write behind" writes to any "write mostly" raid1
mirror legs to be delayed and avoids reads from such legs.
No other MD personalities supported via dm-raid make use of "write
behind", thus setting this property is superfluous; it wouldn't cause
harm but it is correct to reject it.

The kernel key service is a generic way to store keys for the use of
other subsystems. Currently there is no way to use kernel keys in dm-crypt.
This patch aims to fix that. Instead of key userspace may pass a key
description with preceding ':'. So message that constructs encryption
mapping now looks like this:
<cipher> [<key>|:<key_string>] <iv_offset> <dev_path> <start> [<#opt_params> <opt_params>]
where <key_string> is in format: <key_size>:<key_type>:<key_description>
Currently we only support two elementary key types: 'user' and 'logon'.
Keys may be loaded in dm-crypt either via <key_string> or using
classical method and pass the key in hex representation directly.
dm-crypt device initialised with a key passed in hex representation may be
replaced with key passed in key_string format and vice versa.

With that, I've seen printouts like:
DOUG: long bufio 90758 ms
...and stack trace always show's we're in dm_bufio_prefetch().
The problem is that we try to allocate memory with GFP_NOIO while
we're holding the dm_bufio lock. Instead we should be using
GFP_NOWAIT. Using GFP_NOIO can cause us to sleep while holding the
lock and that causes the above problems.
The current behavior explained by David Rientjes:
It will still try reclaim initially because __GFP_WAIT (or
__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM) is set by GFP_NOIO. This is the cause of
contention on dm_bufio_lock() that the thread holds. You want to
pass GFP_NOWAIT instead of GFP_NOIO to alloc_buffer() when holding a
mutex that can be contended by a concurrent slab shrinker (if
count_objects didn't use a trylock, this pattern would trivially
deadlock).
This change significantly increases responsiveness of the system while
in this state. It makes a real difference because it unblocks kswapd.
In the bug report analyzed, kswapd was hung:

Currently, we increase journal entry seq by 10 after recovery.
However, this is not sufficient in the following case.
After crash the journal looks like
| seq+0 | +1 | +2 | +3 | +4 | +5 | +6 | +7 | ... | +11 | +12 |
If +1 is not valid, we dropped all entries from +1 to +12; and
write seq+10:
| seq+0 | +10 | +2 | +3 | +4 | +5 | +6 | +7 | ... | +11 | +12 |
However, if we write a big journal entry with seq+11, it will
connect with some stale journal entry:
| seq+0 | +10 | +11 | +12 |
To reduce the risk of this issue, we increase seq by 10000 instead.
Shaohua: use 10000 instead of 1000. The risk should be very unlikely. The total
stripe cache size is less than 2k typically, and several stripes can fit into
one meta data block. So the total inflight meta data blocks would be quite
small, which means the the total sequence number used should be quite small.
The 10000 sequence number increase should be far more than safe.

This patch just adds a 'failfast' per-device flag which can be stored
in v0.90 or v1.x metadata.
The flag is not used yet but the intent is that it can be used for
mirrored (raid1/raid10) arrays where low latency is more important
than keeping all devices on-line.
Setting the flag for a device effectively gives permission for that
device to be marked as Faulty and excluded from the array on the first
error. The underlying driver will be directed not to retry requests
that result in failures. There is a proviso that the device must not
be marked faulty if that would cause the array as a whole to fail, it
may only be marked Faulty if the array remains functional, but is
degraded.
Failures on read requests will cause the device to be marked
as Faulty immediately so that further reads will avoid that
device. No attempt will be made to correct read errors by
over-writing with the correct data.
It is expected that if transient errors, such as cable unplug, are
possible, then something in user-space will revalidate failed
devices and re-add them when they appear to be working again.

Recovery of write-back cache has different logic to write-through only
cache. Specifically, for write-back cache, the recovery need to scan
through all active journal entries before flushing data out. Therefore,
large portion of the recovery logic is rewritten here.
To make the diffs cleaner, we split the rewrite as follows:
1. In this patch, we:
- add new data to r5l_recovery_ctx
- add new functions to recovery write-back cache
The new functions are not used in this patch, so this patch does not
change the behavior of recovery.
2. In next patch, we:
- modify main recovery procedure r5l_recovery_log() to call new
functions
- remove old functions
With cache feature, there are 2 different scenarios of recovery:
1. Data-Parity stripe: a stripe with complete parity in journal.
2. Data-Only stripe: a stripe with only data in journal (or partial
parity).
The code differentiate Data-Parity stripe from Data-Only stripe with
flag STRIPE_R5C_CACHING.
For Data-Parity stripes, we use the same procedure as raid5 journal,
where all the data and parity are replayed to the RAID devices.
For Data-Only strips, we need to finish complete calculate parity and
finish the full reconstruct write or RMW write. For simplicity, in
the recovery, we load the stripe to stripe cache. Once the array is
started, the stripe cache state machine will handle these stripes
through normal write path.
r5c_recovery_flush_log contains the main procedure of recovery. The
recovery code first scans through the journal and loads data to
stripe cache. The code keeps tracks of all these stripes in a list
(use sh->lru and ctx->cached_list), stripes in the list are
organized in the order of its first appearance on the journal.
During the scan, the recovery code assesses each stripe as
Data-Parity or Data-Only.
During scan, the array may run out of stripe cache. In these cases,
the recovery code will also call raid5_set_cache_size to increase
stripe cache size. If the array still runs out of stripe cache
because there isn't enough memory, the array will not assemble.
At the end of scan, the recovery code replays all Data-Parity
stripes, and sets proper states for Data-Only stripes. The recovery
code also increases seq number by 10 and rewrites all Data-Only
stripes to journal. This is to avoid confusion after repeated

There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space.
For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes.
To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal.
In current implementation, reclaim happens when:
1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim
if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds.
2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes,
or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k)
(r5c_check_cached_full_stripe)
3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage)
4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data)
r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim.
For stripe cache:
When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached,
or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer
than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes
are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure
is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes.
For log space:
To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space
to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total
number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current
implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending
data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case).
Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached
stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and
parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space
required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space
calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as
reclaim_required_space.
Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and
R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log
device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL
is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of
reclaim_required_space.
r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in
a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their
first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint)
should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list.
When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out
stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is
set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the
log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two
phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as:
1. write data to journal
(r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data)
2. call bio_endio
(r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes).
Then the writing-out phase is as:
1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out)
2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW)
3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device
4. Write data and parity to RAID disks
This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with
stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write
data to journal device.
Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch.
With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation
and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal
device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will
reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of
parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes.
This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state:
- STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE,
- STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE,
Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in
r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list.
STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for
stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list
are not considered as "active".
For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block
being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data
is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page
from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the
->page data back into the parity block.
r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back
cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy.
There are some known limitations of the cache implementation:
1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes
of smaller granularity are write through.
2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later
writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by
moving log_io to r5dev.
3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which
is a significant bottleneck for some workloads.
4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in
the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data
(sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces
availability of the array.

This patch adds state machine for raid5-cache. With log device, the
raid456 array could operate in two different modes (r5c_journal_mode):
- write-back (R5C_MODE_WRITE_BACK)
- write-through (R5C_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH)
Existing code of raid5-cache only has write-through mode. For write-back
cache, it is necessary to extend the state machine.
With write-back cache, every stripe could operate in two different
phases:
- caching
- writing-out
In caching phase, the stripe handles writes as:
- write to journal
- return IO
In writing-out phase, the stripe behaviors as a stripe in write through
mode R5C_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH.
STRIPE_R5C_CACHING is added to sh->state to differentiate caching and
writing-out phase.
Please note: this is a "no-op" patch for raid5-cache write-through
mode.
The following detailed explanation is copied from the raid5-cache.c:
/*
* raid5 cache state machine
*
* With rhe RAID cache, each stripe works in two phases:
* - caching phase
* - writing-out phase
*
* These two phases are controlled by bit STRIPE_R5C_CACHING:
* if STRIPE_R5C_CACHING == 0, the stripe is in writing-out phase
* if STRIPE_R5C_CACHING == 1, the stripe is in caching phase
*
* When there is no journal, or the journal is in write-through mode,
* the stripe is always in writing-out phase.
*
* For write-back journal, the stripe is sent to caching phase on write
* (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying). r5c_make_stripe_write_out() kicks off
* the write-out phase by clearing STRIPE_R5C_CACHING.
*
* Stripes in caching phase do not write the raid disks. Instead, all
* writes are committed from the log device. Therefore, a stripe in
* caching phase handles writes as:
* - write to log device
* - return IO
*
* Stripes in writing-out phase handle writes as:
* - calculate parity
* - write pending data and parity to journal
* - write data and parity to raid disks
* - return IO for pending writes

The block tracing infrastructure (accessed with blktrace/blkparse)
supports the tracing of mapping bios from one device to another.
This is currently used when a bio in a partition is mapped to the
whole device, when bios are mapped by dm, and for mapping in md/raid5.
Other md personalities do not include this tracing yet, so add it.
When a read-error is detected we redirect the request to a different device.
This could justifiably be seen as a new mapping for the originial bio,
or a secondary mapping for the bio that errors. This patch uses
the second option.
When md is used under dm-raid, the mappings are not traced as we do
not have access to the block device number of the parent.

While performing a resync/recovery, raid1 divides the
array space into three regions:
- before the resync
- at or shortly after the resync point
- much further ahead of the resync point.
Write requests to the first or third do not need to wait. Write
requests to the middle region do need to wait if resync requests are
pending.
If there are any active write requests in the middle region, resync
will wait for them.
Due to an accounting error, there is a small range of addresses,
between conf->next_resync and conf->start_next_window, where write
requests will *not* be blocked, but *will* be counted in the middle
region. This can effectively block resync indefinitely if filesystem
writes happen repeatedly to this region.
As ->next_window_requests is incremented when the sector is after
conf->start_next_window + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE
the same boundary should be used for determining when write requests
should wait.

When writing to an array with a bitmap enabled, the writes are grouped
in batches which are preceded by an update to the bitmap.
It is quite likely if that a drive develops a problem which is not
media related, that the bitmap write will be the first to report an
error and cause the device to be marked faulty (as the bitmap write is
at the start of a batch).
In this case, there is point submiting the subsequent writes to the
failed device - that just wastes times.
So re-check the Faulty state of a device before submitting a
delayed write.
This requires that we keep the 'rdev', rather than the 'bdev' in the
bio, then swap in the bdev just before final submission.

If external metadata handler supports bad blocks and unacknowledged bad
blocks are present, don't report disk via sysfs as faulty. Such
situation can be still handled so disk just has to be blocked for a
moment. It makes it consistent with kernel state as corresponding rdev
flag is also not set.
When the disk in being unblocked there are few cases:
1. Disk has been in blocked and faulty state, it is being unblocked but
it still remains in faulty state. Metadata handler will remove it from
array in the next call.
2. There is no bad block support in external metadata handler and bad
blocks are present - put the disk in blocked and faulty state (see
case 1).
3. There is bad block support in external metadata handler and all bad
blocks are acknowledged - clear all flags, continue.
4. There is bad block support in external metadata handler but there are
still unacknowledged bad blocks - clear all flags, continue. It is fine
to clear Blocked flag because it was probably not set anyway (if it was
it is case 1). BlockedBadBlocks flag can also be cleared because the
request waiting for it will set it again when it finds out that some bad
block is still not acknowledged. Recovery is not necessary but there are
no problems if the flag is set. Sysfs rdev state is still reported as
blocked (due to unacknowledged bad blocks) so metadata handler will
process remaining bad blocks and unblock disk again.

When bad blocks support is being removed, just clear rdev flag. It is
not necessary to reset badblocks->shift field. If there are bad blocks
cleared or added at the same time, it is ok for those changes to be
applied to the structure. The array is in blocked state and the drive

requeue list is processed.
* In the SCSI core queue stopping and starting should only be
performed by the scsi_internal_device_block() and
scsi_internal_device_unblock() functions but not by any other
function. Although the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call in
scsi_queue_rq() may help to reduce CPU load if a LLD queue is
full, figuring out whether or not a queue should be restarted
when requeueing a command would require to introduce additional
locking in scsi_mq_requeue_cmd() to avoid a race with
scsi_internal_device_block(). Avoid this complexity by removing
the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call from scsi_queue_rq().
* In the NVMe core only the functions that call
blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues() explicitly should start stopped
queues.
* A blk_mq_start_stopped_hwqueues() call must be added in the
xen-blkfront driver in its blkif_recover() function.

mddev->curr_resync usually records where the current resync is up to,
but during the starting phase it has some "magic" values.
1 - means that the array is trying to start a resync, but has yielded
to another array which shares physical devices, and also needs to
start a resync
2 - means the array is trying to start resync, but has found another
array which shares physical devices and has already started resync.
3 - means that resync has commensed, but it is possible that nothing
has actually been resynced yet.
It is important that this value not be visible to user-space and
particularly that it doesn't get written to the metadata, as the
resync or recovery checkpoint. In part, this is because it may be
slightly higher than the correct value, though this is very rare.
In part, because it is not a multiple of 4K, and some devices only
support 4K aligned accesses.
There are two places where this value is propagates into either
->curr_resync_completed or ->recovery_cp or ->recovery_offset.
These currently avoid the propagation of values 1 and 3, but will
allow 3 to leak through.
Change them to only propagate the value if it is > 3.
As this can cause an array to fail, the patch is suitable for -stable.

If write is the first operation on a disk and it happens not to be
aligned to page size, block layer sends read request first. If read
operation fails, the disk is set as failed as no attempt to fix the
error is made because array is in auto-readonly mode. Similarily, the
disk is set as failed for read-only array.
Take the same approach as in raid10. Don't fail the disk if array is in
readonly or auto-readonly mode. Try to redirect the request first and if
unsuccessful, return a read error.

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.
In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.
Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of
use to the block layer and a few drivers that dig into struct request
internals.
This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for
them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests. It
also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields
from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for
struct request.

If there is a bad block on a disk and there is a recovery performed from
this disk, the same bad block is reported for a new disk. It involves
setting MD_CHANGE_PENDING flag in rdev_set_badblocks. For external
metadata this flag is not being cleared as array state is reported as
'clean'. The read request to bad block in RAID5 array gets stuck as it
is waiting for a flag to be cleared - as per commit c3cce6cda1
("md/raid5: ensure device failure recorded before write request
returns.").
The meaning of MD_CHANGE_PENDING and MD_CHANGE_CLEAN flags has been
clarified in commit 070dc6dd71 ("md: resolve confusion of
MD_CHANGE_CLEAN"), however MD_CHANGE_PENDING flag has been used in
personality error handlers since and it doesn't fully comply with
initial purpose. It was supposed to notify that write request is about
to start, however now it is also used to request metadata update.
Initially (in md_allow_write, md_write_start) MD_CHANGE_PENDING flag has
been set and in_sync has been set to 0 at the same time. Error handlers
just set the flag without modifying in_sync value. Sysfs array state is
a single value so now it reports 'clean' when MD_CHANGE_PENDING flag is
set and in_sync is set to 1. Userspace has no idea it is expected to
take some action.
Swap the order that array state is checked so 'write_pending' is
reported ahead of 'clean' ('write_pending' is a misleading name but it
is too late to rename it now).

If superblock points to an invalid meta block, r5l_load_log will set
create_super with true and create an new superblock, this runtime path
would always happen if we do no writing I/O to this array since it was
created. Writing an empty meta block could avoid this unnecessary
action at the first time we created log superblock.
Another reason is for the corretness of log recovery. Currently we have
bellow code to guarantee log revocery to be correct.
if (ctx.seq > log->last_cp_seq + 1) {
int ret;
ret = r5l_log_write_empty_meta_block(log, ctx.pos, ctx.seq + 10);
if (ret)
return ret;
log->seq = ctx.seq + 11;
log->log_start = r5l_ring_add(log, ctx.pos, BLOCK_SECTORS);
r5l_write_super(log, ctx.pos);
} else {
log->log_start = ctx.pos;
log->seq = ctx.seq;
}
If we just created a array with a journal device, log->log_start and
log->last_checkpoint should all be 0, then we write three meta block
which are valid except mid one and supposed crash happened. The ctx.seq
would equal to log->last_cp_seq + 1 and log->log_start would be set to
position of mid invalid meta block after we did a recovery, this will
lead to problems which could be avoided with this patch.

This is the counterpart of raid10 fix. If a write error occurs, raid10
will try to rewrite the bio in small chunk size. If the rewrite fails,
raid10 will record the error in bad block. narrow_write_error will
always use WRITE for the bio, but actually it could be a discard. Since
discard bio hasn't payload, write the bio will cause different issues.
But discard error isn't fatal, we can safely ignore it. This is what
this patch does.
This issue should exist since discard is added, but only exposed with

A good practice is to prefix the names of functions by the name
of the subsystem.
The kthread worker API is a mix of classic kthreads and workqueues. Each
worker has a dedicated kthread. It runs a generic function that process
queued works. It is implemented as part of the kthread subsystem.
This patch renames the existing kthread worker API to use
the corresponding name from the workqueues API prefixed by
kthread_:
__init_kthread_worker() -> __kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_worker() -> kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_work() -> kthread_init_work()
insert_kthread_work() -> kthread_insert_work()
queue_kthread_work() -> kthread_queue_work()
flush_kthread_work() -> kthread_flush_work()
flush_kthread_worker() -> kthread_flush_worker()
Note that the names of DEFINE_KTHREAD_WORK*() macros stay
as they are. It is common that the "DEFINE_" prefix has
precedence over the subsystem names.
Note that INIT() macros and init() functions use different
naming scheme. There is no good solution. There are several
reasons for this solution:
+ "init" in the function names stands for the verb "initialize"
aka "initialize worker". While "INIT" in the macro names
stands for the noun "INITIALIZER" aka "worker initializer".
+ INIT() macros are used only in DEFINE() macros
+ init() functions are used close to the other kthread()
functions. It looks much better if all the functions
use the same scheme.
+ There will be also kthread_destroy_worker() that will
be used close to kthread_cancel_work(). It is related
to the init() function. Again it looks better if all
functions use the same naming scheme.
+ there are several precedents for such init() function
names, e.g. amd_iommu_init_device(), free_area_init_node(),
jump_label_init_type(), regmap_init_mmio_clk(),
+ It is not an argument but it was inconsistent even before.
