With the locking rework in the last patch, this shouldn't be needed anymore -
btree_node_write_work() only takes b->write_lock which is never held for very
long.
Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <kmo@daterainc.com>
Add a new lock, b->write_lock, which is required to actually modify - or write -
a btree node; this lock is only held for short durations.
This means we can write out a btree node without taking b->lock, which _is_ held
for long durations - solving a deadlock when btree_flush_write() (from the
journalling code) is called with a btree node locked.
Right now just occurs in bch_btree_set_root(), but with an upcoming journalling
rework is going to happen a lot more.
This also turns b->lock is now more of a read/intent lock instead of a
read/write lock - but not completely, since it still blocks readers. May turn it
into a real intent lock at some point in the future.

This isn't a bulletproof fix; btree_node_free() -> bch_bucket_free() puts the
bucket on the unused freelist, where it can be reused right away without any
ordering requirements. It would be better to wait on at least a journal write to
go down before reusing the bucket. bch_btree_set_root() does this, and inserting
into non leaf nodes is completely synchronous so we should be ok, but future
patches are just going to get rid of the unused freelist - it was needed in the
past for various reasons but shouldn't be anymore.

Change the invalidate tracepoint to indicate how much data we're invalidating,

Deadlock happened because a foreground write slept, waiting for a bucket
to be allocated. Normally the gc would mark buckets available for invalidation.
But the moving_gc was stuck waiting for outstanding writes to complete.
These writes used the bcache_wq, the same queue foreground writes used.
This fix gives moving_gc its own work queue, so it was still finish moving
even if foreground writes are stuck waiting for allocation. It also makes
work queue a parameter to the data_insert path, so moving_gc can use its
workqueue for writes.

The on disk bucket gens are allowed to be out of date, when we reuse buckets
that didn't have any live data in them. To deal with this, the initial gc has to
update the bucket gen when we find a pointer gen newer than the bucket's gen.
Unfortunately we weren't doing this for pointers in the journal that we're about
to replay.

* tag 'md/3.14-fixes' of git://neil.brown.name/md:
md/raid5: Fix CPU hotplug callback registration
md/raid1: restore ability for check and repair to fix read errors.
Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Interestingly, the raid5 code can actually prevent double initialization and
hence can use the following simplified form of callback registration:
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
put_online_cpus();
A hotplug operation that occurs between registering the notifier and calling
get_online_cpus(), won't disrupt anything, because the code takes care to
perform the memory allocations only once.
So reorganize the code in raid5 this way to fix the deadlock with callback
registration.

commit 30bc9b5387
md/raid1: fix bio handling problems in process_checks()
Move the bio_reset() to a point before where BIO_UPTODATE is checked,
so that check now always report that the bio is uptodate, even if it is not.
This causes process_check() to sometimes treat read-errors as
successful matches so the good data isn't written out.
This patch preserves the flag until it is needed.
Bug was introduced in 3.11, but backported to 3.10-stable (as it fixed
an even worse bug). So suitable for any -stable since 3.10.

The BUG_ON at the end of __bch_btree_mark_key can be triggered due to
an integer overflow error:
BITMASK(GC_SECTORS_USED, struct bucket, gc_mark, 2, 13);
...
SET_GC_SECTORS_USED(g, min_t(unsigned,
GC_SECTORS_USED(g) + KEY_SIZE(k),
(1 << 14) - 1));
BUG_ON(!GC_SECTORS_USED(g));
In bcache.h, the SECTORS_USED bitfield is defined to be 13 bits wide.
While the SET_ code tries to ensure that the field doesn't overflow by
clamping it to (1<<14)-1 == 16383, this is incorrect because 16383
requires 14 bits. Therefore, if GC_SECTORS_USED() + KEY_SIZE() =
8192, the SET_ statement tries to store 8192 into a 13-bit field. In
a 13-bit field, 8192 becomes zero, thus triggering the BUG_ON.
Therefore, create a field width constant and a max value constant, and
use those to create the bitfield and check the inputs to
SET_GC_SECTORS_USED. Arguably the BITMASK() template ought to have
BUG_ON checks for too-large values, but that's a separate patch.

In the cluster evironment, cluster write has poor performance because
userspace_flush() has to contact a userspace program (cmirrord) for
clear/mark/flush requests. But both mark and flush requests require
cmirrord to communicate the message to all the cluster nodes for each
flush call. This behaviour is really slow.
To address this we now merge mark and flush requests together to reduce
the kernel-userspace-kernel time. We allow a new directive,
"integrated_flush" that can be used to instruct the kernel log code to
combine flush and mark requests when directed by userspace. If not
directed by userspace (due to an older version of the userspace code
perhaps), the kernel will function as it did previously - preserving
backwards compatibility. Additionally, flush requests are performed
lazily when only clear requests exist.

As release_stripe and __release_stripe decrement ->count and then
manipulate ->lru both under ->device_lock, it is important that
get_active_stripe() increments ->count and clears ->lru also under
->device_lock.
However we currently list_del_init ->lru under the lock, but increment
the ->count outside the lock. This can lead to races and list
corruption.
So move the atomic_inc(&sh->count) up inside the ->device_lock
protected region.
Note that we still increment ->count without device lock in the case
where get_free_stripe() was called, and in fact don't take
->device_lock at all in that path.
This is safe because if the stripe_head can be found by
get_free_stripe, then the hash lock assures us the no-one else could
possibly be calling release_stripe() at the same time.

This bug was introduced in commit 7e664b3dec ("dm space map metadata:
fix extending the space map").
When extending a dm-thin metadata volume we:
- Switch the space map into a simple bootstrap mode, which allocates
all space linearly from the newly added space.
- Add new bitmap entries for the new space
- Increment the reference counts for those newly allocated bitmap
entries
- Commit changes to disk
- Switch back out of bootstrap mode.
But, the disk commit may allocate space itself, if so this fact will be
lost when switching out of bootstrap mode.
The bug exhibited itself as an error when the bitmap_root, with an
erroneous ref count of 0, was subsequently decremented as part of a
later disk commit. This would cause the disk commit to fail, and thinp
to enter read_only mode. The metadata was not damaged (thin_check
passed).
The fix is to put the increments + commit into a loop, running until
the commit has not allocated extra space. In practise this loop only
runs twice.
With this fix the following device mapper testsuite test passes:
dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n thin_remove_works_after_resize

Here's the big driver core and sysfs patch set for 3.14-rc1.
There's a lot of work here moving sysfs logic out into a "kernfs" to
allow other subsystems to also have a virtual filesystem with the same
attributes of sysfs (handle device disconnect, dynamic creation /
removal as needed / unneeded, etc. This is primarily being done for
the cgroups filesystem, but the goal is to also move debugfs to it when
it is ready, solving all of the known issues in that filesystem as well.
The code isn't completed yet, but all should be stable now (there is a
big section that was reverted due to problems found when testing.)
There's also some other smaller fixes, and a driver core addition that
allows for a "collection" of objects, that the DRM people will be using
soon (it's in this tree to make merges after -rc1 easier.)
All of this has been in linux-next with no reported issues.

The cache's policy may have been established using the "default" alias,
which is currently the "mq" policy but the default policy may change in
the future. It is useful to know exactly which policy is being used.
Add a 'real' member to the dm_cache_policy_type structure and have the
"default" dm_cache_policy_type point to the real "mq"
dm_cache_policy_type. Update dm_cache_policy_get_name() to check if
real is set, if so report the name of the real policy (not the alias).

Before a write starts we set a bit in the write-intent bitmap.
When the write completes we clear that bit if the write was successful
to all devices. However if the write wasn't fully successful we
should not clear the bit. If the faulty drive is subsequently
re-added, the fact that the bit is still set ensure that we will
re-write the data that is missing.
This logic is mediated by the STRIPE_DEGRADED flag - we only clear the
bitmap bit when this flag is not set.
Currently we correctly set the flag if a write starts when some
devices are failed or missing. But we do *not* set the flag if some
device failed during the write attempt.
This is wrong and can result in clearing the bit inappropriately.
So: set the flag when a write fails.
This bug has been present since bitmaps were introduces, so the fix is
suitable for any -stable kernel.

Verify that the cmd parameter passed to md_ioctl() is valid before
doing anything.
This fixes mddev->hold_active being set to 0 when an invalid ioctl
command is passed to md_ioctl() before the array has been configured.
Clearing mddev->hold_active in that case can lead to a livelock
situation when an invalid ioctl number is given to md_ioctl() by a
process when the mddev is currently being opened by another process:
Process 1 Process 2
--------- ---------
md_alloc()
mddev_find()
-> returns a new mddev with
hold_active == UNTIL_IOCTL
add_disk()
-> sends KOBJ_ADD uevent
(sees KOBJ_ADD uevent for device)
md_open()
md_ioctl(INVALID_IOCTL)
-> returns ENODEV and clears
mddev->hold_active
md_release()
md_put()
-> deletes the mddev as
hold_active is 0
md_open()
mddev_find()
-> returns a newly
allocated mddev with
mddev->gendisk == NULL
-> returns with ERESTARTSYS
(kernel restarts the open syscall)

This reverts commit be35f48610 ("dm: wait until embedded kobject is
released before destroying a device") and provides an improved fix.
The kobject release code that calls the completion must be placed in a
non-module file, otherwise there is a module unload race (if the process
calling dm_kobject_release is preempted and the DM module unloaded after
the completion is triggered, but before dm_kobject_release returns).
To fix this race, this patch moves the completion code to dm-builtin.c
which is always compiled directly into the kernel if BLK_DEV_DM is
selected.
The patch introduces a new dm_kobject_holder structure, its purpose is
to keep the completion and kobject in one place, so that it can be
accessed from non-module code without the need to export the layout of
struct mapped_device to that code.

This patch modifies dm-snapshot so that it prefetches the buffers when
loading the exceptions.
The number of buffers read ahead is specified in the DM_PREFETCH_CHUNKS
macro. The current value for DM_PREFETCH_CHUNKS (12) was found to
provide the best performance on a single 15k SCSI spindle. In the
future we may modify this default or make it configurable.
Also, introduce the function dm_bufio_set_minimum_buffers to setup
bufio's number of internal buffers before freeing happens. dm-bufio may
hold more buffers if enough memory is available. There is no guarantee
that the specified number of buffers will be available - if you need a
guarantee, use the argument reserved_buffers for
dm_bufio_client_create.

level_store() currently does not make sure the metadata is
updates to reflect the new raid level. It simply sets MD_CHANGE_DEVS.
Any level with a ->thread will quickly notice this and update the
metadata. However RAID0 and Linear do not have a thread so no
metadata update happens until the array is stopped. At that point the
metadata is written.
This is later that we would like. While the delay doesn't risk any
data it can cause confusion. So if there is no md thread, immediately
update the metadata after a level change.

MD RAID1: Further conditionalize 'fullsync'

Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
When adding a new device into an array it is normally important to
clear any stale data from ->recovery_offset else the new device may
not be recovered properly.
However when re-adding a device which is known to be nearly in-sync,
this is not needed and can be detrimental. The (bitmap-based)
resync will still happen, and further recovery is only needed from
where-ever it was already up to.
So if save_raid_disk is set, signifying a re-add, don't clear
->recovery_offset.

Since commit d70ed2e4fa
MD: Allow restarting an interrupted incremental recovery.
we don't write out the metadata to devices while they are recovering.
This had a good reason, but has unfortunate consequences. This patch
changes things to make them work better.
At issue is what happens if the array is shut down while a recovery is
happening, particularly a bitmap-guided recovery.
Ideally the recovery should pick up where it left off.
However the metadata cannot represent the state "A recovery is in
process which is guided by the bitmap".
Before the above mentioned commit, we wrote metadata to the device
which said "this is being recovered and it is up to <here>". So after
a restart, a full recovery (not bitmap-guided) would happen from
where-ever it was up to.
After the commit the metadata wasn't updated so it still said "This
device is fully in sync with <this> event count". That leads to a
bitmap-based recovery following the whole bitmap, which should be a
lot less work than a full recovery from some starting point. So this
was an improvement.
However updates some metadata but not all leads to other problems.
In particular, the metadata written to the fully-up-to-date device
record that the array has all devices present (even though some are
recovering). So on restart, mdadm wants to find all devices and
expects them to have current event counts.
Obviously it doesn't (some have old event counts) so (when assembling
with --incremental) it waits indefinitely for the rest of the expected
devices.
It really is wrong to not update all the metadata together. Do that
is bound to cause confusion.
Instead, we should make it possible to record the truth in the
metadata. i.e. we need to be able to record that a device is being
recovered based on the bitmap.
We already have a Feature flag to say that recovery is happening. We
now add another one to say that it is a bitmap-based recovery.
With this we can remove the code that disables the write-out of
metadata on some devices.
So this patch:
- moves the setting of 'saved_raid_disk' from add_new_disk to
the validate_super methods. This makes sure it is always set
properly, both when adding a new device to an array, and when
assembling an array from a collection of devices.
- Adds a metadata flag MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_BITMAP which is only
used if MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_OFFSET is set, and record that a
bitmap-based recovery is allowed.
This is only present in v1.x metadata. v0.90 doesn't support
devices which are in the middle of recovery at all.
- Only skips writing metadata to Faulty devices.
- Also allows rdev state to be set to "-insync" via sysfs.
This can be used for external-metadata arrays. When the
'role' is set the device is assumed to be in-sync. If, after
setting the role, we set the state to "-insync", the role is
moved to saved_raid_disk which effectively says the device is
partly in-sync with that slot and needs a bitmap recovery.
