Set queue ordered mode. It doesn't really matter what we set here
because we don't ever put any requests on the queue. But we need to set
something other than QUEUE_ORDERED_NONE so that __generic_make_request
passes barrier requests to us.

Move wait queue declaration and unplug to dm_wait_for_completion.
The purpose is to minimize duplicate code in the further patches.
The patch reorders functions a little bit. It doesn't change any
functionality. For proper non-deadlock operation, add_wait_queue must
happen before set_current_state(interruptible) and before the test for
!atomic_read(&md->pending).

The logging API needs an extra function to make cluster mirroring
possible. This new function allows us to check whether a mirror
region is being recovered on another machine in the cluster. This
helps us prevent simultaneous recovery I/O and process I/O to the
same locations on disk.
Cluster-aware log modules will implement this function. Single
machine log modules will not. So, there is no performance
penalty for single machine mirrors.

upgrade_mode() sets bdev to NULL temporarily, and does not have any
locking to exclude anything from seeing that NULL.
In dm_table_any_congested() bdev_get_queue() can dereference that NULL and

We need to check if the exception was completed after dropping the lock.
After regaining the lock, __find_pending_exception checks if the exception
was already placed into &s->pending hash.
But we don't check if the exception was already completed and placed into
&s->complete hash. If the process waiting in alloc_pending_exception was
delayed at this point because of a scheduling latency and the exception
was meanwhile completed, we'd miss that and allocate another pending
exception for already completed chunk.
It would lead to a situation where two records for the same chunk exist
and potential data corruption because multiple snapshot I/Os to the
affected chunk could be redirected to different locations in the
snapshot.

If someone sends signal to a process performing synchronous dm-io call,
the kernel may crash.
The function sync_io attempts to exit with -EINTR if it has pending signal,
however the structure "io" is allocated on stack, so already submitted io
requests end up touching unallocated stack space and corrupting kernel memory.
sync_io sets its state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, so the signal can't break out
of io_schedule() --- however, if the signal was pending before sync_io entered
while (1) loop, the corruption of kernel memory will happen.
There is no way to cancel in-progress IOs, so the best solution is to ignore
signals at this point.

With my previous patch to save bi_io_vec, the size of dm_raid1_read_record
is significantly increased (the vector list takes 3072 bytes on 32-bit machines
and 4096 bytes on 64-bit machines).
The structure dm_raid1_read_record used to be allocated with kmalloc,
but kmalloc aligns the size on the next power-of-two so an object
slightly greater than 4096 will allocate 8192 bytes of memory and half of
that memory will be wasted.
This patch turns kmalloc into a slab cache which doesn't have this
padding so it will reduce the memory consumed.

Device mapper saves and restores various fields in the bio, but it doesn't save
bi_io_vec. If the device driver modifies this after a partially successful
request, dm-raid1 and dm-multipath may attempt to resubmit a bio that has
bi_size inconsistent with the size of vector.
To make requests resubmittable in dm-raid1 and dm-multipath, we must save
and restore the bio vector as well.
To reduce the memory overhead involved in this, we do not save the pages in a
vector and use a 16-bit field size if the page size is less than 65536.

We currently update the metadata :
1/ every 3Megabytes
2/ When the place we will write new-layout data to is recorded in
the metadata as still containing old-layout data.
Rule one exists to avoid having to re-do too much reshaping in the
face of a crash/restart. So it should really be time based rather
than size based. So change it to "every 10 seconds".
Rule two turns out to be too harsh when restriping an array
'in-place', as in that case the metadata much be updates for every
stripe.
For the in-place update, it can only possibly be safe from a crash if
some user-space program data a backup of every e.g. few hundred
stripes before allowing them to be reshaped. In that case, the
constant metadata update is pointless.
So only update the metadata if the new metadata will report that the
end of the 'old-layout' data is beyond where we are currently
writing 'new-layout' data.

Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
When we are reshaping an array, it is very important that we read
the data from a particular sector offset before writing new data
at that offset.
In most cases when growing or shrinking an array we read long before
we even consider writing. But when restriping an array without
changing it size, there is a small possibility that we might have
some data to available write before the read has happened at the same
location. This would require some stripes to be in cache already.
To guard against this small possibility, we check, before writing,
that the 'old' stripe at the same location is not in the process of
being read. And we ensure that we mark all 'source' stripes as such
before allowing new 'destination' stripes to proceed.

Add "prev_chunk" to raid5_conf_t, similar to "previous_raid_disks", to
remember what the chunk size was before the reshape that is currently
underway.
This seems like duplication with "chunk_size" and "new_chunk" in
mddev_t, and to some extent it is, but there are differences.
The values in mddev_t are always defined and often the same.
The prev* values are only defined if a reshape is underway.
Also (and more significantly) the raid5_conf_t values will be changed
at the same time (inside an appropriate lock) that the reshape is
started by setting reshape_position. In contrast, the new_chunk value
is set when the sysfs file is written which could be well before the
reshape starts.

During a raid5 reshape, we have some stripes in the cache that are
'before' the reshape (and are still to be processed) and some that are
'after'. They are currently differentiated by having different
->disks values as the only reshape current supported involves changing
the number of disks.
However we will soon support reshapes that do not change the number
of disks (chunk parity or chunk size). So make the difference more
explicit with a 'generation' number.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
When reshaping a raid5 to have fewer devices, we work from the end of
the array to the beginning.
md_do_sync gives addresses to sync_request that go from the beginning
to the end. So largely ignore them use the internal state variable
"reshape_progress" to keep track of what to do next.
Never allow the size to be reduced below the minimum (4 for raid6,
3 otherwise).
We require that the size of the array has already been reduced before
the array is reshaped to a smaller size. This is because simply
reducing the size is an easily reversible operation, while the reshape
is immediately destructive and so is not reversible for the blocks at
the ends of the devices.
Thus to reshape an array to have fewer devices, you must first write
an appropriately small size to md/array_size.
When reshape finished, we remove any drives that are no longer
needed and fix up ->degraded.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
When reducing the number of devices in a raid4/5/6, the reshape
process has to start at the end of the array and work down to the
beginning. So we need to handle expand_progress and expand_lo
differently.
This patch renames "expand_progress" and "expand_lo" to avoid the
implication that anything is getting bigger (expand->reshape) and
every place they are used, we make sure that they are used the right
way depending on whether delta_disks is positive or negative.
