8811b5968f raid5: make_request use batch stripe release
make_request() does stripe release for every stripe and the stripe usually has
count 1, which makes previous release_stripe() optimization not work. In my
test, this release_stripe() becomes the heaviest pleace to take
conf->device_lock after previous patches applied.

Below patch makes stripe release batch. All the stripes will be released in
unplug. The STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST bit is to protect concurrent access stripe
lru.

0021b7bc04 md: remove plug_cnt feature of plugging.
This seemed like a good idea at the time, but after further thought I
cannot see it making a difference other than very occasionally and
testing to try to exercise the case it is most likely to help did not
show any performance difference by removing it.

So remove the counting of active plugs and allow 'pending writes' to
be activated at any time, not just when no plugs are active.

This is only relevant when there is a write-intent bitmap, and the
updating of the bitmap will likely introduce enough delay that
the single-threading of bitmap updates will be enough to collect large
numbers of updates together.

Removing this will make it easier to centralise the unplug code, and
will clear the other for other unplug enhancements which have a
measurable effect.

895e3c5c58 md/raid5: For odirect-write performance, do not set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE.
'sync' writes set both REQ_SYNC and REQ_NOIDLE.
O_DIRECT writes set REQ_SYNC but not REQ_NOIDLE.

We currently assume that a REQ_SYNC request will not be followed by
more requests and so set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE to expedite the
request.
This is appropriate for sync requests, but not for O_DIRECT requests.

So make the setting of STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE conditional on REQ_NOIDLE
rather than REQ_SYNC.  This is consistent with the documented meaning
of REQ_NOIDLE:

b17459c050 raid5: add a per-stripe lock
Add a per-stripe lock to protect stripe specific data. The purpose is to reduce
lock contention of conf->device_lock.

stripe ->toread, ->towrite are protected by per-stripe lock.  Accessing bio
list of the stripe is always serialized by this lock, so adding bio to the
lists (add_stripe_bio()) and removing bio from the lists (like
ops_run_biofill()) not race.

If bio in ->read, ->written ... list are not shared by multiple stripes, we
don't need any lock to protect ->read, ->written, because STRIPE_ACTIVE will
protect them. If the bio are shared,  there are two protections:
1. bi_phys_segments acts as a reference count
2. traverse the list uses r5_next_bio, which makes traverse never access bio
not belonging to the stripe

Let's have an example:
|  stripe1 |  stripe2    |  stripe3  |
...bio1......|bio2|bio3|....bio4.....

stripe2 has 4 bios, when it's finished, it will decrement bi_phys_segments for
all bios, but only end_bio for bio2 and bio3. bio1->bi_next still points to
bio2, but this doesn't matter. When stripe1 is finished, it will not touch bio2
because of r5_next_bio check. Next time stripe1 will end_bio for bio1 and
stripe3 will end_bio bio4.

before add_stripe_bio() addes a bio to a stripe, we already increament the bio
bi_phys_segments, so don't worry other stripes release the bio.

Neil pointed out the bitmap write optimization in handle_stripe_clean_event()
is unnecessary, because the chance one stripe gets written twice in the mean
time is rare. We can always do a bitmap_startwrite when a write request is
added to a stripe and bitmap_endwrite after write request is done.  Delete the
optimization. With it, we can delete some cases of device_lock.

b357f04a67 md: fix up plugging (again).
The value returned by "mddev_check_plug" is only valid until the
next 'schedule' as that will unplug things.  This could happen at any
call to mempool_alloc.
So just calling mddev_check_plug at the start doesn't really make
sense.

So call it just before, or just after, queuing things for the thread.
As the action that happens at unplug is to wake the thread, this makes
lots of sense.
If we cannot add a plug (which requires a small GFP_ATOMIC alloc) we
wake thread immediately.

RAID5 is a bit different.  Requests are queued for the thread and the
thread is woken by release_stripe.  So we don't need to wake the
thread on failure.
However the thread doesn't perform certain actions when there is any
active plug, so it is important to install a plug before waking the
thread.  So for RAID5 we install the plug *before* queuing the request
and waking the thread.

Without this patch it is possible for raid1 or raid10 to queue a
request without then waking the thread, resulting in the array locking
up.

Also change raid10 to only flush_pending_write when there are not
active plugs, just like raid1.

This patch is suitable for 3.0 or later.  I plan to submit it to
-stable, but I'll like to let it spend a few weeks in mainline
first to be sure it is completely safe.

fab363b5ff raid5: delayed stripe fix
There isn't locking setting STRIPE_DELAYED and STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE bits, but
the two bits have relationship. A delayed stripe can be moved to hold list only
when preread active stripe count is below IO_THRESHOLD. If a stripe has both
the bits set, such stripe will be in delayed list and preread count not 0,
which will make such stripe never leave delayed list.

c6563a8c38 md: add possibility to change data-offset for devices.
When reshaping we can avoid costly intermediate backup by
changing the 'start' address of the array on the device
(if there is enough room).

So as a first step, allow such a change to be requested
through sysfs, and recorded in v1.x metadata.

(As we didn't previous check that all 'pad' fields were zero,
 we need a new FEATURE flag for this.
 A (belatedly) check that all remaining 'pad' fields are
 zero to avoid a repeat of this)

The new data offset must be requested separately for each device.
This allows each to have a different change in the data offset.
This is not likely to be used often but as data_offset can be
set per-device, new_data_offset should be too.

This patch also removes the 'acknowledged' arg to rdev_set_badblocks as
it is never used and never will be.  At the same time we add a new
arg ('in_new') which is currently always zero but will be used more
soon.

When a reshape finishes we will need to update the data_offset
and rdev->sectors.  So provide an exported function to do that.

2c810cddc4 md: allow a reshape operation to be reversed.
Currently a reshape operation always progresses from the start
of the array to the end unless the number of devices is being
reduced, in which case it progressed in the opposite direction.

To reverse a partial reshape which changes the number of devices
you can stop the array and re-assemble with the raid-disks numbers
reversed and it will undo.

However for a reshape that does not change the number of devices
it is not possible to reverse the reshape in the middle - you have to
wait until it completes.

So add a 'reshape_direction' attribute with is either 'forwards' or
'backwards' and can be explicitly set when delta_disks is zero.

This will become more important when we allow the data_offset to
change in a reshape.  Then the explicit statement of what direction is
being used will be more useful.

This can be enabled in raid5 trivially as it already supports
reverse reshape and just needs to use a different trigger to request it.

dafb20fa34 md: tidy up rdev_for_each usage.
md.h has an 'rdev_for_each()' macro for iterating the rdevs in an
mddev.  However it uses the 'safe' version of list_for_each_entry,
and so requires the extra variable, but doesn't include 'safe' in the
name, which is useful documentation.

Consequently some places use this safe version without needing it, and
many use an explicity list_for_each entry.

So:
 - rename rdev_for_each to rdev_for_each_safe
 - create a new rdev_for_each which uses the plain
   list_for_each_entry,
 - use the 'safe' version only where needed, and convert all other
   list_for_each_entry calls to use rdev_for_each.

adding it as a replacement for a want_replacement device.

This requires that common md code attempt hot_add even when the array
is not formally degraded.

If a Replacement is seen, file it as such.

If we see two replacements (or two normal devices) for the one slot,
abort.

dd054fce88 md/raid5: handle activation of replacement device when recovery completes.
When recovery completes - as reported by a call to ->spare_active,
we clear In_sync on the original and set it on the replacement.

Then when the original gets removed we move the replacement from
'replacement' to 'rdev'.

This could race with other code that is looking at these pointers,
so we use memory barriers and careful ordering to ensure that
a reader might see one device twice, but never no devices.
Then the readers guard against using both devices, which could
only happen when writing.

9a3e1101b8 md/raid5: detect and handle replacements during recovery.
During recovery we want to write to the replacement but not
the original.  So we have two new flags
 - R5_NeedReplace if this stripe has a replacement that needs to
   be written at some stage
 - R5_WantReplace if NeedReplace, and the data is available, and
   a 'sync' has been requested on this stripe.

We also distinguish between 'sync and replace' which need to read
all other devices, and 'replace' which only needs to read the
devices being replaced.

Note that during resync we always write to any replacement device.
It might not need to be written to, but as we don't read to compare,
we have to write to be sure.

977df36255 md/raid5: writes should get directed to replacement as well as original.
When writing, we need to submit two writes, one to the original, and
one to the replacement - if there is a replacement.

If the write to the replacement results in a write error, we just fail
the device.  We only try to record write errors to the original.

When writing for recovery, we shouldn't write to the original.  This
will be addressed in a subsequent patch that generally addresses
recovery.

14a75d3e07 md/raid5: preferentially read from replacement device if possible.
If a replacement device is present and has been recovered far enough,
then use it for reading into the stripe cache.

If we get an error we don't try to repair it, we just fail the device.
A replacement device that gives errors does not sound sensible.

This requires removing the setting of R5_ReadError when we get
a read error during a read that bypasses the cache.  It was probably
a bad idea anyway as we don't know that every block in the read
caused an error, and it could cause ReadError to be set for the
replacement device, which is bad.

Remove the duplication by only setting the fields that lower level
devices don't touch in raid5_build_block, and only set the changeable
fields in ops_run_io.

671488cc25 md/raid5: allow each slot to have an extra replacement device
Just enhance data structures to record a second device per slot to be
used as a 'replacement' device, replacing the original.
We also have a second bio in each slot in each stripe_head.  This will
only be used when writing to the array - we need to write to both the
original and the replacement at the same time, so will need two bios.

For now, only try using the replacement drive for aligned-reads.
In this case, we prefer the replacement if it has been recovered far
enough, otherwise use the original.

This includes a small enhancement.  Previously we would only do
aligned reads if the target device was fully recovered.  Now we also
do them if it has recovered far enough.

Soon an array will be able to have multiple devices with the
same raid_disk number (an original and a replacement).  So removing
a device based on the number won't work.  So pass the actual device
handle instead.

908f4fbd26 md/raid5: be more thorough in calculating 'degraded' value.
When an array is being reshaped to change the number of devices,
the two halves can be differently degraded.  e.g. one could be
missing a device and the other not.

So we need to be more careful about calculating the 'degraded'
attribute.

Instead of just inc/dec at appropriate times, perform a full
re-calculation examining both possible cases.  This doesn't happen
often so it not a big cost, and we already have most of the code to
do it.

30d7a48368 md/raid5: ensure correct assessment of drives during degraded reshape.
While reshaping a degraded array (as when reshaping a RAID0 by first
converting it to a degraded RAID4) we currently get confused about
which devices are in_sync.  In most cases we get it right, but in the
region that is being reshaped we need to treat non-failed devices as
in-sync when we have the data but haven't actually written it out yet.

9283d8c5af md/raid5: never wait for bad-block acks on failed device.
Once a device is failed we really want to completely ignore it.
It should go away soon anyway.

In particular the presence of bad blocks on it should not cause us to
block as we won't be trying to write there anyway.

So as soon as we can check if a device is Faulty, do so and pretend
that it is already gone if it is Faulty.
