md-cluster is only supportted by raid1 and raid10, there is no need to
include md-cluster.h for other personalities.

Also move APIs that is only used in md-cluster.c from md.h to
md-cluster.h.

<id>urn:sha1:35a0a409fa269c287c4378f1aefe84ae8b5211a1</id>
<content type='text'>
The commit db5e653d7c9f ("md: delay choosing sync action to
md_start_sync()") delays the start of the sync action. In a
clustered environment, this will cause another node to first
activate the spare disk and skip recovery. As a result, no
nodes will perform recovery when a disk is added or re-added.

Before db5e653d7c9f:

```
   node1                                node2
----------------------------------------------------------------

 + md_update_sb
 |  sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED
 + md_choose_sync_action           process_metadata_update
 |  remove_and_add_spares           //node1 has not finished adding
 + call mddev-&gt;sync_work            //the spare disk:do nothing

md_start_sync
 starts md_do_sync

md_do_sync
 + grabbed resync_lockres:DLM_LOCK_EX
 + do syncing job

md_check_recovery
 sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED
                                 process_metadata_update
                                   //activate spare disk

                                 ... ...

                                 md_do_sync
                                  waiting to grab resync_lockres:EX
```

After db5e653d7c9f:

(note: if 'cmd:idle' sets MD_RECOVERY_INTR after md_check_recovery
starts md_start_sync, setting the INTR action will exacerbate the
delay in node1 calling the md_do_sync function.)

```

                                    //activate spare disk

  ... ...                         ... ...

                                  md_do_sync
                                   + grabbed resync_lockres:EX
                                   + raid1_sync_request skip sync under
				     conf-&gt;fullsync:0
md_do_sync
 1. waiting to grab resync_lockres:EX
 2. when node1 could grab EX lock,
    node1 will skip resync under recovery_offset:MaxSector
```

How to trigger:

```(commands @node1)
 # to easily watch the recovery status
echo 2000 &gt; /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max
ssh root@node2 "echo 2000 &gt; /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max"

mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -b clustered -n 2 /dev/sda /dev/sdb --assume-clean
ssh root@node2 mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sda /dev/sdb
mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --fail /dev/sda --remove /dev/sda
mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sdc

=== "cat /proc/mdstat" on both node, there are no recovery action. ===
```

How to fix:

because md layer code logic is hard to restore for speeding up sync job
on local node, we add new cluster msg to pending the another node to
active disk.

should be included in the area.

<title>md-cluster/raid10: resize all the bitmaps before start reshape</title>

<content type='text'>
To support add disk under grow mode, we need to resize
all the bitmaps of each node before reshape, so that we
can ensure all nodes have the same view of the bitmap of
the clustered raid.

So after the master node resized the bitmap, it broadcast
a message to other slave nodes, and it checks the size of
each bitmap are same or not by compare pages. We can only
continue the reshaping after all nodes update the bitmap
to the same size (by checking the pages), otherwise revert
bitmap size to previous value.

The resize_bitmaps interface and BITMAP_RESIZE message are
introduced in md-cluster.c for the purpose.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd</id>
<content type='text'>
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

<content type='text'>
To update size for cluster raid, we need to make
sure all nodes can perform the change successfully.
However, it is possible that some of them can't do
it due to failure (bitmap_resize could fail). So
we need to consider the issue before we set the
capacity unconditionally, and we use below steps
to perform sanity check.

1. A change the size, then broadcast METADATA_UPDATED
   msg.
2. B and C receive METADATA_UPDATED change the size
   excepts call set_capacity, sync_size is not update
   if the change failed. Also call bitmap_update_sb
   to sync sb to disk.
3. A checks other node's sync_size, if sync_size has
   been updated in all nodes, then send CHANGE_CAPACITY
   msg otherwise send msg to revert previous change.
4. B and C call set_capacity if receive CHANGE_CAPACITY
   msg, otherwise pers-&gt;resize will be called to restore
   the old value.

<title>md-cluster: gather resync infos and enable recv_thread after bitmap is ready</title>

<id>urn:sha1:51e453aecb267b6a99b1d2853bccd5bba7340236</id>
<content type='text'>
The in-memory bitmap is not ready when node joins cluster,
so it doesn't make sense to make gather_all_resync_info()
called so earlier, we need to call it after the node's
bitmap is setup. Also, recv_thread could be wake up after
node joins cluster, but it could cause problem if node
receives RESYNCING message without persionality since
mddev-&gt;pers-&gt;quiesce is called in process_suspend_info.

This commit introduces a new cluster interface load_bitmaps
to fix above problems, load_bitmaps is called in bitmap_load
where bitmap and persionality are ready, and load_bitmaps
does the following tasks:

1. call gather_all_resync_info to load all the node's
   bitmap info.
2. set MD_CLUSTER_ALREADY_IN_CLUSTER bit to recv_thread
   could be wake up, and wake up recv_thread if there is
   pending recv event.

Then ack_bast only wakes up recv_thread after IN_CLUSTER
bit is ready otherwise MD_CLUSTER_PENDING_RESYNC_EVENT is
set.

<content type='text'>
For clustered raid, we need to do extra actions when change
bitmap to none.

1. check if all the bitmap lock could be get or not, if yes then
   we can continue the change since cluster raid is only active
   in current node. Otherwise return fail and unlock the related
   bitmap locks
