A Boolean field "snap_exists" in an rbd mapping is used to indicate
whether a mapped snapshot has been removed from an image's snapshot
context, to stop sending requests for that snapshot as soon as we
know it's gone.
Generalize the interpretation of this field so it applies to
non-snapshot (i.e. "head") mappings. That is, define its value
to be false until the mapping has been set, and then define it to be
true for both snapshot mappings or head mappings.
Rename the field "exists" to reflect the broader interpretation.
The rbd_mapping structure is on its way out, so move the field
back into the rbd_device structure.

When processing a request, rbd_rq_fn() makes clones of the bio's in
the request's bio chain and submits the results to osd's to be
satisfied. If a request bio straddles the boundary between objects
backing the rbd image, it must be represented by two cloned bio's,
one for the first part (at the end of one object) and one for the
second (at the beginning of the next object).
This has been handled by a function bio_chain_clone(), which
includes an interface only a mother could love, and which has
been found to have other problems.
This patch defines two new fairly generic bio functions (one which
replaces bio_chain_clone()) to help out the situation, and then
revises rbd_rq_fn() to make use of them.
First, bio_clone_range() clones a portion of a single bio, starting
at a given offset within the bio and including only as many bytes
as requested. As a convenience, a request to clone the entire bio
is passed directly to bio_clone().
Second, bio_chain_clone_range() performs a similar function,
producing a chain of cloned bio's covering a sub-range of the
source chain. No bio_pair structures are used, and if successful
the result will represent exactly the specified range.
Using bio_chain_clone_range() makes bio_rq_fn() a little easier
to understand, because it avoids the need to pass very much
state information between consecutive calls. By avoiding the need
to track a bio_pair structure, it also eliminates the problem
described here: http://tracker.newdream.net/issues/2933
Note that a block request (and therefore the complete length of
a bio chain processed in rbd_rq_fn()) is an unsigned int, while
the result of rbd_segment_length() is u64. This change makes
this range trunctation explicit, and trips a bug if the the
segment boundary is too far off.

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.

"aborting" requests, or force-detaching the disk, is intended for
completely blocked/hung local backing devices which do no longer
complete requests at all, not even do error completions. In this
situation, usually a hard-reset and failover is the only way out.
By "aborting", basically faking a local error-completion,
we allow for a more graceful swichover by cleanly migrating services.
Still the affected node has to be rebooted "soon".
By completing these requests, we allow the upper layers to re-use
the associated data pages.
If later the local backing device "recovers", and now DMAs some data
from disk into the original request pages, in the best case it will
just put random data into unused pages; but typically it will corrupt
meanwhile completely unrelated data, causing all sorts of damage.
Which means delayed successful completion,
especially for READ requests,
is a reason to panic().
We assume that a delayed *error* completion is OK,
though we still will complain noisily about it.

xfstests has always had random failures of tests due to loop devices
failing to be torn down and hence leaving filesytems that cannot be
unmounted. This causes test runs to immediately stop.
Over the past 6 or 7 years we've added hacks like explicit unmount
-d commands for loop mounts, losetup -d after unmount -d fails, etc,
but still the problems persist. Recently, the frequency of loop
related failures increased again to the point that xfstests 259 will
reliably fail with a stray loop device that was not torn down.
That is despite the fact the test is above as simple as it gets -
loop 5 or 6 times running mkfs.xfs with different paramters:
lofile=$(losetup -f)
losetup $lofile "$testfile"
"$MKFS_XFS_PROG" -b size=512 $lofile >/dev/null || echo "mkfs failed!"
sync
losetup -d $lofile
And losteup -d $lofile is failing with EBUSY on 1-3 of these loops
every time the test is run.
Turns out that blkid is running simultaneously with losetup -d, and
so it sees an elevated reference count and returns EBUSY. But why
is blkid running? It's obvious, isn't it? udev has decided to try
and find out what is on the block device as a result of a creation
notification. And it is racing with mkfs, so might still be scanning
the device when mkfs finishes and we try to tear it down.
So, make losetup -d force autoremove behaviour. That is, when the
last reference goes away, tear down the device. xfstests wants it
*gone*, not causing random teardown failures when we know that all
the operations the tests have specifically run on the device have
completed and are no longer referencing the loop device.

It must be at least 9 (SECTOR_SHIFT), because the Linux bio system
assumes that minimum granularity.
It also must be less than 32 (at the moment anyway) because there
exist spots in the code that store the size of a "segment" (object
backing an rbd image) in a signed int variable, which can be 32 bits
including the sign. We should be able to relax this limit once

The two calls to rbd_do_op() from rbd_rq_fn() differ only in the
value passed for the snapshot id and the snapshot context.
For reads the snapshot always comes from the mapping, and for writes
the snapshot id is always CEPH_NOSNAP.
The snapshot context is always null for reads. For writes, the
snapshot context always comes from the rbd header, but it is
acquired under protection of header semaphore and could change
thereafter, so we can't simply use what's available inside
rbd_do_op().
Eliminate the snapid parameter from rbd_do_op(), and set it
based on the I/O direction inside that function instead. Always
pass the snapshot context acquired in the caller, but reset it
to a null pointer inside rbd_do_op() if the operation is a read.

The goal in implementing this architecture is to exploit the hardware

(network, block, console, etc). This is similar to how PVHVM guests

for QEMU. The end result is that we share a lot of the generic Xen
drivers and infrastructure.
