Al Viro ff01bb4832 fs: move code out of buffer.c
Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c.  Export
kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it.  Reduce
buffer_head.h requirement accordingly.

Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit
obsolete to bother moving.  The small comment replacing it says enough.

There is very little benefit in allowing to let a ->make_request
instance update the bios device and sector and loop around it in
__generic_make_request when we can archive the same through calling
generic_make_request from the driver and letting the loop in

Note that various drivers got the return value from ->make_request and

Mike Snitzer ed8b752bcc dm table: set flush capability based on underlying devices
DM has always advertised both REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA flush capabilities
regardless of whether or not a given DM device's underlying devices
also advertised a need for them.

Block's flush-merge changes from 2.6.39 have proven to be more costly
for DM devices.  Performance regressions have been reported even when
DM's underlying devices do not advertise that they have a write cache.

Fix the performance regressions by configuring a DM device's flushing
capabilities based on those of the underlying devices' capabilities.

Mikulas Patocka d5b9dd04bd dm: ignore merge_bvec for snapshots when safe
Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate
whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge
function returns.  When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots
which can split them if necessary.  Snapshot I/O may be significantly
fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance.

Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size
if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't
provide a merge function.  After the patch, dm_set_device_limits
restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge
function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't
provide a merge function.

The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge
function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be
remapped.  Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can
now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge
function.  Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes,
it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the
filesystem on snapshot store.

If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function
(such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.

Mike Snitzer 936688d7eb dm table: fix discard support
Remove 'discards_supported' from the dm_table structure.  The same
information can be easily discovered from the table's target(s) in
dm_table_supports_discards().

Before this fix dm_table_supports_discards() would skip checking the
individual targets' 'discards_supported' flag if any one target in the
table didn't set num_discard_requests > 0.  Now the per-target
'discards_supported' flag is effective at insuring the final DM device
advertises discard support.  But, to be clear, targets that don't
support discards (!num_discard_requests) will not receive discard
requests.

Also DMWARN if a target sets 'discards_supported' override but forgets
to set 'num_discard_requests'.

Martin K. Petersen a91a2785b2 block: Require subsystems to explicitly allocate bio_set integrity mempool
MD and DM create a new bio_set for every metadevice. Each bio_set has an
integrity mempool attached regardless of whether the metadevice is
capable of passing integrity metadata. This is a waste of memory.

Instead we defer the allocation decision to MD and DM since we know at
metadevice creation time whether integrity passthrough is needed or not.

Automatic integrity mempool allocation can then be removed from
bioset_create() and we make an explicit integrity allocation for the
fs_bio_set.

Kiyoshi Ueda 052189a2ec dm: remove superfluous irq disablement in dm_request_fn
This patch changes spin_lock_irq() to spin_lock() in dm_request_fn().
This patch is just a clean-up and no functional change.

The spin_lock_irq() was leftover from the early request-based dm code,
where map_request() used to enable interrupts.
Since current map_request() never enables interrupts, we can change it
to spin_lock() to match the prior spin_unlock().

Auditing through the dm and block-layer code called from
map_request(), I confirmed all functions save/restore interrupt
status, so no function returning with interrupts enabled.
Also I haven't observed any problem on my test environment which
uses scsi and lpfc driver after heavy I/O testing with occasional
path down/up.

Added BUG_ON() to detect breakage in future.

Mike Snitzer c217649bf2 dm: dont take i_mutex to change device size
No longer needlessly hold md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex when changing the
size of a DM device.  This additional locking is unnecessary because
i_size_write() is already protected by the existing critical section in
dm_swap_table().  DM already has a reference on md->bdev so the
associated bd_inode may be changed without lifetime concerns.

A negative side-effect of having held md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex was
that a concurrent DM device resize and flush (via fsync) would deadlock.
Dropping md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex eliminates this potential for
deadlock.  The following reproducer no longer deadlocks:

Tejun Heo 6a8736d10c dm: relax ordering of bio-based flush implementation
Unlike REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA doesn't mandate any ordering
against other bio's.  This patch relaxes ordering around flushes.

* A flush bio is no longer deferred to workqueue directly.  It's
  processed like other bio's but __split_and_process_bio() uses
  md->flush_bio as the clone source.  md->flush_bio is initialized to
  empty flush during md initialization and shared for all flushes.

* As a flush bio now travels through the same execution path as other
  bio's, there's no need for dedicated error handling path either.  It
  can use the same error handling path in dec_pending().  Dedicated
  error handling removed along with md->flush_error.

* When dec_pending() detects that a flush has completed, it checks
  whether the original bio has data.  If so, the bio is queued to the
  deferred list w/ REQ_FLUSH cleared; otherwise, it's completed.

* As flush sequencing is handled in the usual issue/completion path,
  dm_wq_work() no longer needs to handle flushes differently.  Now its
  only responsibility is re-issuing deferred bio's the same way as
  _dm_request() would.  REQ_FLUSH handling logic including
  process_flush() is dropped.

* There's no reason for queue_io() and dm_wq_work() write lock
  dm->io_lock.  queue_io() now only uses md->deferred_lock and
  dm_wq_work() read locks dm->io_lock.

* bio's no longer need to be queued on the deferred list while a flush
  is in progress making DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD unncessary.  Drop it.

This avoids stalling the device during flushes and simplifies the
implementation.

Tejun Heo 29e4013de7 dm: implement REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm
This patch converts request-based dm to support the new REQ_FLUSH/FUA.

The original request-based flush implementation depended on
request_queue blocking other requests while a barrier sequence is in
progress, which is no longer true for the new REQ_FLUSH/FUA.

In general, request-based dm doesn't have infrastructure for cloning
one source request to multiple targets, but the original flush
implementation had a special mostly independent path which can issue
flushes to multiple targets and sequence them.  However, the
capability isn't currently in use and adds a lot of complexity.
Moreoever, it's unlikely to be useful in its current form as it
doesn't make sense to be able to send out flushes to multiple targets
when write requests can't be.

This patch rips out special flush code path and deals handles
REQ_FLUSH/FUA requests the same way as other requests.  The only
special treatment is that REQ_FLUSH requests use the block address 0
when finding target, which is enough for now.

* added BUG_ON(!dm_target_is_valid(ti)) in dm_request_fn() as
  suggested by Mike Snitzer

This patch converts bio-based dm to support REQ_FLUSH/FUA instead of
now deprecated REQ_HARDBARRIER.

* -EOPNOTSUPP handling logic dropped.

* Preflush is handled as before but postflush is dropped and replaced
  with passing down REQ_FUA to member request_queues.  This replaces
  one array wide cache flush w/ member specific FUA writes.

* __split_and_process_bio() now calls __clone_and_map_flush() directly
  for flushes and guarantees all FLUSH bio's going to targets are zero
`  length.

* It's now guaranteed that all FLUSH bio's which are passed onto dm
  targets are zero length.  bio_empty_barrier() tests are replaced
  with REQ_FLUSH tests.

* Empty WRITE_BARRIERs are replaced with WRITE_FLUSHes.

* Dropped unlikely() around REQ_FLUSH tests.  Flushes are not unlikely
  enough to be marked with unlikely().

* Block layer now filters out REQ_FLUSH/FUA bio's if the request_queue
  doesn't support cache flushing.  Advertise REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA
  capability.

* Request based dm isn't converted yet.  dm_init_request_based_queue()
  resets flush support to 0 for now.  To avoid disturbing request
  based dm code, dm->flush_error is added for bio based dm while
  requested based dm continues to use dm->barrier_error.

Lightly tested linear, stripe, raid1, snap and crypt targets.  Please
proceed with caution as I'm not familiar with the code base.

Mike Snitzer a79245b3e5 dm: split discard requests on target boundaries
Update __clone_and_map_discard to loop across all targets in a DM
device's table when it processes a discard bio.  If a discard crosses a
target boundary it must be split accordingly.

Update __issue_target_requests and __issue_target_request to allow a
cloned discard bio to have a custom start sector and size.

Split max_io_len_target_boundary out of max_io_len so that the discard
support can make use of it without duplicating max_io_len code.

Avoiding max_io_len's split_io logic enables DM's discard support to
submit the entire discard request to a target.  But discards must still
be split on target boundaries.

Allow discards to be passed through to linear mappings if at least one
underlying device supports it.  Discards will be forwarded only to
devices that support them.

A target that supports discards should set num_discard_requests to
indicate how many times each discard request must be submitted to it.

Verify table's underlying devices support discards prior to setting the
associated DM device as capable of discards (via QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD).

Mike Snitzer 4a0b4ddf26 dm: do not initialise full request queue when bio based
Change bio-based mapped devices no longer to have a fully initialized
request_queue (request_fn, elevator, etc).  This means bio-based DM
devices no longer register elevator sysfs attributes ('iosched/' tree
or 'scheduler' other than "none").

In contrast, a request-based DM device will continue to have a full
request_queue and will register elevator sysfs attributes.  Therefore
a user can determine a DM device's type by checking if elevator sysfs
attributes exist.

First allocate a minimalist request_queue structure for a DM device
(needed for both bio and request-based DM).

Initialization of a full request_queue is deferred until it is known
that the DM device is request-based, at the end of the table load
sequence.

Factor DM device's request_queue initialization:
- common to both request-based and bio-based into dm_init_md_queue().
- specific to request-based into dm_init_request_based_queue().

The md->type_lock mutex is used to protect md->queue, in addition to
md->type, during table_load().

A DM device's first table_load will establish the immutable md->type.
But md->queue initialization, based on md->type, may fail at that time
(because blk_init_allocated_queue cannot allocate memory).  Therefore
any subsequent table_load must (re)try dm_setup_md_queue independently of
establishing md->type.

Mike Snitzer a5664dad7e dm ioctl: make bio or request based device type immutable
Determine whether a mapped device is bio-based or request-based when
loading its first (inactive) table and don't allow that to be changed
later.

This patch performs different device initialisation in each of the two
cases.  (We don't think it's necessary to add code to support changing
between the two types.)

Allowed md->type transitions:
  DM_TYPE_NONE to DM_TYPE_BIO_BASED
  DM_TYPE_NONE to DM_TYPE_REQUEST_BASED

We now prevent table_load from replacing the inactive table with a
conflicting type of table even after an explicit table_clear.

Introduce 'type_lock' into the struct mapped_device to protect md->type
and to prepare for the next patch that will change the queue
initialization and allocate memory while md->type_lock is held.

Mikulas Patocka 708e929513 dm: skip second flush on bio unsupported error
When processing barriers, skip the second flush if processing the bio
failed with -EOPNOTSUPP.  This can happen with discard+barrier requests.
If the device doesn't support discard, there would be two useless
SYNCHRONIZE CACHE commands.  The first dm_flush cannot be so easily
optimized out, so we leave it there.

Previously, -EOPNOTSUPP could be received in dec_pending only with empty
barriers and we ignored that error, assuming the device not supporting
cache flushes has cache always consistent.  With the addition of discard
barriers, this -EOPNOTSUPP can also be generated by discards and we
must record it in md->barrier_error for process_barrier.

Kiyoshi Ueda 3f77316de0 dm: separate device deletion from dm_put
This patch separates the device deletion code from dm_put()
to make sure the deletion happens in the process context.

By this patch, device deletion always occurs in an ioctl (process)
context and dm_put() can be called in interrupt context.
As a result, the request-based dm's bad dm_put() usage pointed out
by Mikulas below disappears.
    http://marc.info/?l=dm-devel&m=126699981019735&w=2

Without this patch, I confirmed there is a case to crash the system:
    dm_put() => dm_table_destroy() => vfree() => BUG_ON(in_interrupt())

Some more backgrounds and details:
In request-based dm, a device opener can remove a mapped_device
while the last request is still completing, because bios in the last
request complete first and then the device opener can close and remove
the mapped_device before the last request completes:
  CPU0                                          CPU1
  =================================================================
  <<INTERRUPT>>
  blk_end_request_all(clone_rq)
    blk_update_request(clone_rq)
      bio_endio(clone_bio) == end_clone_bio
        blk_update_request(orig_rq)
          bio_endio(orig_bio)
                                                <<I/O completed>>
                                                dm_blk_close()
                                                dev_remove()
                                                  dm_put(md)
                                                    <<Free md>>
   blk_finish_request(clone_rq)
     ....
     dm_end_request(clone_rq)
       free_rq_clone(clone_rq)
       blk_end_request_all(orig_rq)
       rq_completed(md)

So request-based dm used dm_get()/dm_put() to hold md for each I/O
until its request completion handling is fully done.
However, the final dm_put() can call the device deletion code which
must not be run in interrupt context and may cause kernel panic.

To solve the problem, this patch moves the device deletion code,
dm_destroy(), to predetermined places that is actually deleting
the mapped_device in ioctl (process) context, and changes dm_put()
just to decrement the reference count of the mapped_device.
By this change, dm_put() can be used in any context and the symmetric
model below is introduced:
    dm_create():  create a mapped_device
    dm_destroy(): destroy a mapped_device
    dm_get():     increment the reference count of a mapped_device
    dm_put():     decrement the reference count of a mapped_device

dm_destroy() waits for all references of the mapped_device to disappear,
then deletes the mapped_device.

dm_destroy() uses active waiting with msleep(1), since deleting
the mapped_device isn't performance-critical task.
And since at this point, nobody opens the mapped_device and no new
reference will be taken, the pending counts are just for racing
completing activity and will eventually decrease to zero.

For the unlikely case of the forced module unload, dm_destroy_immediate(),
which doesn't wait and forcibly deletes the mapped_device, is also
introduced and used in dm_hash_remove_all().  Otherwise, "rmmod -f"
may be stuck and never return.
And now, because the mapped_device is deleted at this point, subsequent
accesses to the mapped_device may cause NULL pointer references.

                                  dm_put(md)

Arnd Bergmann 6e9624b8ca block: push down BKL into .open and .release
The open and release block_device_operations are currently
called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must
first make sure that all drivers that currently rely
on this have no regressions.

This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release
operations for all block drivers to prepare for the
next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL
with their own locks or remove it completely when it can
be shown that it is not needed.

The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only
remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block
layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none
of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}.

Most of these two functions is also under the protection
of bdev->bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
->open and ->release, and the common code does not
access any global data structures that need the BKL.

Mikulas Patocka a97f925a32 dm: free dm_io before bio_endio not after
Free the dm_io structure before calling bio_endio() instead of after it,
to ensure that the io_pool containing it is not referenced after it is
freed.

This partially fixes a problem described here
  https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2010-February/msg00109.html

thread 1:
bio_endio(bio, io_error);
/* scheduling happens */
					thread 2:
					close the device
					remove the device
thread 1:
free_io(md, io);

Thread 2, when removing the device, sees non-empty md->io_pool (because the
io hasn't been freed by thread 1 yet) and may crash with BUG in mempool_free.
Thread 1 may also crash, when freeing into a nonexisting mempool.

To fix this we must make sure that bio_endio() is the last call and
the md structure is not accessed afterwards.

There is another bio_endio in process_barrier, but it is called from the thread
and the thread is destroyed prior to freeing the mempools, so this call is
not affected by the bug.

A similar bug exists with module unloads - the module may be unloaded
immediately after bio_endio - but that is more difficult to fix.

Kiyoshi Ueda ecdb2e257a dm table: remove dm_get from dm_table_get_md
Remove the dm_get() in dm_table_get_md() because dm_table_get_md() could
be called from presuspend/postsuspend, which are called while
mapped_device is in DMF_FREEING state, where dm_get() is not allowed.

Justification for that is the lifetime of both objects: As far as the
current dm design/implementation, mapped_device is never freed while
targets are doing something, because dm core waits for targets to become
quiet in dm_put() using presuspend/postsuspend.  So targets should be
able to touch mapped_device without holding reference count of the
mapped_device, and we should allow targets to touch mapped_device even
if it is in DMF_FREEING state.

Backgrounds:
I'm trying to remove the multipath internal queue, since dm core now has
a generic queue for request-based dm.  In the patch-set, the multipath
target wants to request dm core to start/stop queue.  One of such
start/stop requests can happen during postsuspend() while the target
waits for pg-init to complete, because the target stops queue when
starting pg-init and tries to restart it when completing pg-init.  Since
queue belongs to mapped_device, it involves calling dm_table_get_md()
and dm_put().  On the other hand, postsuspend() is called in dm_put()
for mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, and that triggers
BUG_ON(DMF_FREEING) in the 2nd dm_put().

I had tried to solve this problem by changing only multipath not to
touch mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, but I couldn't and I
came up with a question why we need dm_get() in dm_table_get_md().
