b16b1b6cd0 md/bitmap: fix calculation of 'chunks' - missing shift.
commit 61a0d80c "md/bitmap: discard CHUNK_BLOCK_SHIFT macro"
replaced CHUNK_BLOCK_RATIO() by the same text that was
replacing CHUNK_BLOCK_SHIFT() - which is clearly wrong.

The result is that 'chunks' is often too small by 1,
which can sometimes result in a crash (not sure how).

So use the correct replacement, and get rid of CHUNK_BLOCK_RATIO
which is no longe used.

afbaa90b80 md/bitmap: prevent bitmap_daemon_work running while initialising bitmap
If a bitmap is added while the array is active, it is possible
for bitmap_daemon_work to run while the bitmap is being
initialised.
This is particularly a problem if bitmap_daemon_work sees
bitmap->filemap as non-NULL before it has been filled in properly.
So hold bitmap_info.mutex while filling in ->filemap
to prevent problems.

This patch is suitable for any -stable kernel, though it might not
apply cleanly before about 3.1.

9e41dd35b3 MD: Bitmap version cleanup.
bitmap_new_disk_sb() would still create V3 bitmap superblock
with host-endian layout.

Perhaps I'm confused, but shouldn't bitmap_new_disk_sb() be
creating a V4 bitmap superblock instead, that is portable,
as per comment in bitmap.h?

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.

When commit 69e51b449d (md/bitmap:  separate out loading a bitmap...)
created bitmap_load, it missed calling it after bitmap_create when a
bitmap is created through the sysfs interface.
So if a bitmap is added this way, we don't allocate memory properly
and can crash.

This is suitable for any -stable release since 2.6.35.

915c420ddf md/bitmap: be more consistent when setting new bits in memory bitmap.
For each active region corresponding to a bit in the bitmap with have
a 14bit counter (and some flags).
This counts
   number of active writes + bit in the on-disk bitmap + delay-needed.

The "delay-needed" is because we always want a delay before clearing a
bit.  So the number here is normally number of active writes plus 2.
If there have been no writes for a while, we drop to 1.
If still no writes we clear the bit and drop to 0.

So for consistency, when setting bit from the on-disk bitmap or by
request from user-space it is best to set the counter to '2' to start
with.

In particular we might also set the NEEDED_MASK flag at this time, and
in all other cases NEEDED_MASK is only set when the counter is 2 or
more.

961902c0f8 md/bitmap: It is OK to clear bits during recovery.
commit d0a4bb4927 introduced a
regression which is annoying but fairly harmless.

When writing to an array that is undergoing recovery (a spare
in being integrated into the array), writing to the array will
set bits in the bitmap, but they will not be cleared when the
write completes.

For bits covering areas that have not been recovered yet this is not a
problem as the recovery will clear the bits.  However bits set in
already-recovered region will stay set and never be cleared.
This doesn't risk data integrity.  The only negatives are:
 - next time there is a crash, more resyncing than necessary will
   be done.
 - the bitmap doesn't look clean, which is confusing.

While an array is recovering we don't want to update the
'events_cleared' setting in the bitmap but we do still want to clear
bits that have very recently been set - providing they were written to
the recovering device.

So split those two needs - which previously both depended on 'success'
and always clear the bit of the write went to all devices.

7c8f424798 md/lock: ensure updates to page_attrs are properly locked.
Page attributes are set using __set_bit rather than set_bit as
it normally called under a spinlock so the extra atomicity is not
needed.

However there are two places where we might set or clear page
attributes without holding the spinlock.
So add the spinlock in those cases.

This might be the cause of occasional reports that bits a aren't
getting clear properly - theory is that BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING gets lost
when BITMAP_PAGE_NEEDWRITE is set or cleared.  This is an
inconvenience, not a threat to data safety.

2585f3ef8c md/bitmap: improve handling of 'allclean'.
The 'allclean' flag is used to cache the fact that there is nothing to
do, so we can avoid waking up and scanning the bitmap regularly.

The two sorts of pages that might need the attention of the bitmap
daemon are BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and BITMAP_PAGE_NEEDWRITE pages.

So make sure allclean reflects exactly when there are none of those.
So:
  set it before scanning all pages with either bit set.
  clear it whenever these bits are set
  clear it when we desire not to clear one of these bits.
  don't clear it any other time.

5a537df44d md/bitmap: rename and tidy up BITMAP_PAGE_CLEAN
The flag 'BITMAP_PAGE_CLEAN' has a confusing name as it doesn't mean
that the page is clean, but rather that there are counters in the page
which allow bits in the bitmap to be cleared - i.e. maybe cleaning can
happen.

So change it to BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and fix some irregularities:
 - Don't set it in bitmap_init_from_disk as bitmap_set_memory_bits
   sets it when needed
 - in bitmap_daemon_work, if we find a counter that is '1', but
   need_sync is set, then set BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING again (it was
   recently cleared) to ensure we don't forget about this bit.

8258c53208 md/bitmap: fix saving of events_cleared and other state.
If a bitmap is found to be 'stale' the events_cleared value
is set to match 'events'.
However if the array is degraded this does not get stored on disk.
This can subsequently lead to incorrect behaviour.

So change bitmap_update_sb to always update events_cleared in the
superblock from the known events_cleared.
For neatness also set ->state from ->flags.
This requires updating ->state whenever we update ->flags, which makes
sense anyway.

This is suitable for any active -stable release.

75d3da43cb md: Don't let implementation detail of curr_resync leak out through sysfs.
mddev->curr_resync has artificial values of '1' and '2' which are used
by the code which ensures only one resync is happening at a time on
any given device.

These values are internal and should never be exposed to user-space
(except when translated appropriately as in the 'pending' status in
/proc/mdstat).

Unfortunately they are as ->curr_resync is assigned to
->curr_resync_completed and that value is directly visible through
sysfs.

So change the assignments to ->curr_resync_completed to get the same
valued from elsewhere in a form that doesn't have the magic '1' or '2'
values.

One of the purposes is largely mirrored by MD_CHANGE_PENDING which is

purpose fully.

The two purposes are:
 1/ tell md_update_sb that an update is needed and that it is just a
   clean/dirty transition.
 2/ tell user-space that an transition from clean to dirty is pending
    (something wants to write), and tell te kernel (by clearin the
    flag) that the transition is OK.

The first purpose remains wit MD_CHANGE_CLEAN, the second is moved
fully to MD_CHANGE_PENDING.

Normally md uses a 'filemap' which contains a list of pages of bits
each of which may be written separately.
dm-log uses and all-or-nothing approach to writing the log, so
when using a dm-log, ->filemap is NULL and the flags normally stored
in filemap_attr are stored in ->logattrs instead.

ef42567335 md/bitmap: optimise scanning of empty bitmaps.
A bitmap is stored as one page per 2048 bits.
If none of the bits are set, the page is not allocated.

When bitmap_get_counter finds that a page isn't allocate,
it just reports that one bit work of space isn't flagged,
rather than reporting that 2048 bits worth of space are
unflagged.
This can cause searches for flagged bits (e.g. bitmap_close_sync)
to do more work than is really necessary.

So change bitmap_get_counter (when creating) to report a number of
blocks that more accurately reports the range of the device for which
no counter currently exists.

b63d7c2e29 md/bitmap: clean up plugging calls.
1/ use md_unplug in bitmap.c as we will soon be using bitmaps under
  arrays with no queue attached.

2/ Don't bother plugging the queue when we set a bit in the bitmap.
   The reason for this was to encourage as many bits as possible to
   get set before we unplug and write stuff out.
   However every personality already plugs the queue after
   bitmap_startwrite either directly (raid1/raid10) or be setting
   STRIPE_BIT_DELAY which causes the queue to be plugged later
   (raid5).

5ff5afffe6 md/bitmap: reduce dependence on sysfs.
For dm-raid45 we will want to use bitmaps in dm-targets which don't
have entries in sysfs, so cope with the mddev not living in sysfs.

Fixes some whitespace problems
Fixed some checkpatch.pl complaints.
Replaced kmalloc ... memset(0), with kzalloc
Fixed an unlikely memory leak on an error path.
Reformatted a number of 'if/else' sets, sometimes
replacing goto with an else clause.
Removed some old comments and commented-out code.

676e42d896 md: be more careful setting MD_CHANGE_CLEAN
When MD_CHANGE_CLEAN is set we might block in md_write_start.
So we should only set it when fairly sure that something will clear
it.

There are two places where it is set so as to encourage a metadata
update to record the progress of resync/recovery.  This should only
be done if the internal metadata update mechanisms are in use, which
can be tested by by inspecting '->persistent'.
