There is no really need as GFP_NOIO is very likely sufficient,
and failure is not catastrophic.
Calling md_allow_write here will convert a read-auto array to

md/raid5: fix interaction of 'replace' and 'recovery'.
md/raid10: remove use-after-free bug.
If a device in a RAID4/5/6 is being replaced while another is being
recovered, then the writes to the replacement device currently don't
happen, resulting in corruption when the replacement completes and the
new drive takes over.
This is because the replacement writes are only triggered when
's.replacing' is set and not when the similar 's.sync' is set (which
is the case during resync and recovery - it means all devices need to
be read).
So schedule those writes when s.replacing is set as well.
In this case we cannot use "STRIPE_INSYNC" to record that the
replacement has happened as that is needed for recording that any
parity calculation is complete. So introduce STRIPE_REPLACED to
record if the replacement has happened.
For safety we should also check that STRIPE_COMPUTE_RUN is not set.
This has a similar effect to the "s.locked == 0" test. The latter
ensure that now IO has been flagged but not started. The former
checks if any parity calculation has been flagged by not started.
We must wait for both of these to complete before triggering the
'replace'.
Add a similar test to the subsequent check for "are we finished yet".
This possibly isn't needed (is subsumed in the STRIPE_INSYNC test),
but it makes it more obvious that the REPLACE will happen before we
think we are finished.
Finally if a NeedReplace device is not UPTODATE then that is an
error. We really must trigger a warning.
This bug was introduced in commit 9a3e1101b8
(md/raid5: detect and handle replacements during recovery.)
which introduced replacement for raid5.
That was in 3.3-rc3, so any stable kernel since then would benefit
from this fix.

Recent change to use bio_copy_data() in raid1 when repairing
an array is faulty.
The underlying may have changed the bio in various ways using
bio_advance and these need to be undone not just for the 'sbio' which
is being copied to, but also the 'pbio' (primary) which is being
copied from.
So perform the reset on all bios that were read from and do it early.
This also ensure that the sbio->bi_io_vec[j].bv_len passed to
memcmp is correct.
This fixes a crash during a 'check' of a RAID1 array. The crash was
introduced in 3.10 so this is suitable for 3.10-stable.

commit 7ceb17e87b
md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.
allowed a bit more than just that. It also allows devices to be added
to a read-write array and to end up skipping recovery.
This patch removes the offending piece of code pending a rewrite for a
subsequent release.
More specifically:
If the array has a bitmap, then the device will still need a bitmap
based resync ('saved_raid_disk' is set under different conditions
is a bitmap is present).
If the array doesn't have a bitmap, then this is correct as long as
nothing has been written to the array since the metadata was checked
by ->validate_super. However there is no locking to ensure that there
was no write.
Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption so
patch is suitable for 3.10-stable.

1/ When an different between blocks is found, data is copied from
one bio to the other. However bv_len is used as the length to
copy and this could be zero. So use r10_bio->sectors to calculate
length instead.
Using bv_len was probably always a bit dubious, but the introduction
of bio_advance made it much more likely to be a problem.
2/ When preparing some blocks for sync, we don't set BIO_UPTODATE
except on bios that we schedule for a read. This ensures that
missing/failed devices don't confuse the loop at the top of
sync_request write.
Commit 8be185f2c9 "raid10: Use bio_reset()"
removed a loop which set BIO_UPTDATE on all appropriate bios.
So we need to re-add that flag.
These bugs were introduced in 3.10, so this patch is suitable for
3.10-stable, and can remove a potential for data corruption.

Part of the job of garbage collection is to add up however many sectors

The journal replay code starts by finding something that looks like a
valid journal entry, then it does a binary search over the unchecked
region of the journal for the journal entries with the highest sequence
numbers.
Trouble is, the logic was wrong - journal_read_bucket() returns true if
it found journal entries we need, but if the range of journal entries
we're looking for loops around the end of the journal - in that case
journal_read_bucket() could return true when it hadn't found the highest
sequence number we'd seen yet, and in that case the binary search did
the wrong thing. Whoops.

Trouble is, when remaining goes to 0 and we've got nothing more to run -

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.
Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.
dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.

Fix a boundary condition that caused failure for certain device sizes.
The problem is reported at
http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/issues/detail?id=160
For certain device sizes the number of hashes at a specific level was
calculated incorrectly.
It happens for example for a device with data and metadata block size 4096
that has 16385 blocks and algorithm sha256.
The user can test if he is affected by this bug by running the
"veritysetup verify" command and also by activating the dm-verity kernel
driver and reading the whole block device. If it passes without an error,
then the user is not affected.
The condition for the bug is:
Split the total number of data blocks (data_block_bits) into bit strings,
each string has hash_per_block_bits bits. hash_per_block_bits is
rounddown(log2(metadata_block_size/hash_digest_size)). Equivalently, you
can say that you convert data_blocks_bits to 2^hash_per_block_bits base.
If there some zero bit string below the most significant bit string and at
least one bit below this zero bit string is set, then the bug happens.
The same bug exists in the userspace veritysetup tool, so you must use
fixed veritysetup too if you want to use devices that are affected by
this boundary condition.

md/raid10: Allow skipping recovery when clean arrays are assembled
Causes raid10 to skip a recovery in certain cases where it is safe to
do so. Unfortunately it also causes a reshape to be skipped which is
never safe. The result is that an attempt to reshape a RAID10 will
appear to complete instantly, but no data will have been moves so the
array will now contain garbage.
(If nothing is written, you can recovery by simple performing the
reverse reshape which will also complete instantly).
Bug was introduced in 3.10, so this is suitable for 3.10-stable.

There is a bug in 'check_reshape' for raid5.c To checks
that the new minimum number of devices is large enough (which is
good), but it does so also after the reshape has started (bad).
This is bad because
- the calculation is now wrong as mddev->raid_disks has changed
already, and
- it is pointless because it is now too late to stop.
So only perform that test when reshape has not been committed to.

1/ If a RAID10 is being reshaped to a fewer number of devices
and is stopped while this is ongoing, then when the array is
reassembled the 'mirrors' array will be allocated too small.
This will lead to an access error or memory corruption.
2/ A sanity test for a reshaping RAID10 array is restarted
is slightly incorrect.
Due to the first bug, this is suitable for any -stable
kernel since 3.5 where this code was introduced.

Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under
generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you
already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you
submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT
when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation
could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has
a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error

off the work to convert pr_debug() statements to tracepoints, and delete
pkey()/pbtree().

The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null
pointer deref in one of the tracepoints.
Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a
performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it
was changed to an empty inline function.
Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as
part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even
on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

The most significant change is that btree reads are now done
synchronously, instead of asynchronously and doing the post read stuff
from a workqueue.
This was originally done because we can't block on IO under
generic_make_request(). But - we already have a mechanism to punt cache
lookups to workqueue if needed, so if we just use that we don't have to
deal with the complexity of doing things asynchronously.
The main benefit is this makes the locking situation saner; we can hold
our write lock on the btree node until we're finished reading it, and we
don't need that btree_node_read_done() flag anymore.
Also, for writes, btree_write() was broken out into btree_node_write()
and btree_leaf_dirty() - the old code with the boolean argument was dumb
and confusing.
The prio_blocked mechanism was improved a bit too, now the only counter
is in struct btree_write, we don't mess with transfering a count from
struct btree anymore.
This required changing garbage collection to block prios at the start
and unblock when it finishes, which is cleaner than what it was doing
anyways (the old code had mostly the same effect, but was doing it in a
convoluted way)
And the btree iter btree_node_read_done() uses was converted to a real
mempool.

An old version of gcc was complaining about using a const int as the
size of a stack allocated array. Which should be fine - but using
ARRAY_SIZE() is better, anyways.
Also, refactor the code to use scnprintf().
