[ Upstream commit 6d399783e9d4e9bd44931501948059d24ad96ff8 ]

Commit 57c67df(md/raid10: submit IO from originating thread instead of
md thread) submits bio directly for normal disks but not for replacement
disks. There is no point we shouldn't do this for replacement disks.

<title>md/raid1/10: fix potential deadlock</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4cf189eee2dd17d60c9141b7f7fe0f277ff74740</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 61eb2b43b99ebdc9bc6bc83d9792257b243e7cb3 upstream.

Neil Brown pointed out a potential deadlock in raid 10 code with
bio_split/chain. The raid1 code could have the same issue, but recent
barrier rework makes it less likely to happen. The deadlock happens in
below sequence:

1. generic_make_request(bio), this will set current-&gt;bio_list
2. raid10_make_request will split bio to bio1 and bio2
3. __make_request(bio1), wait_barrer, add underlayer disk bio to
current-&gt;bio_list
4. __make_request(bio2), wait_barrer

If raise_barrier happens between 3 &amp; 4, since wait_barrier runs at 3,
raise_barrier waits for IO completion from 3. And since raise_barrier
sets barrier, 4 waits for raise_barrier. But IO from 3 can't be
dispatched because raid10_make_request() doesn't finished yet.

The solution is to adjust the IO ordering. Quotes from Neil:
"
It is much safer to:

    if (need to split) {
        split = bio_split(bio, ...)
        bio_chain(...)
        make_request_fn(split);
        generic_make_request(bio);
   } else
        make_request_fn(mddev, bio);

This way we first process the initial section of the bio (in 'split')
which will queue some requests to the underlying devices.  These
requests will be queued in generic_make_request.
Then we queue the remainder of the bio, which will be added to the end
of the generic_make_request queue.
Then we return.
generic_make_request() will pop the lower-level device requests off the
queue and handle them first.  Then it will process the remainder
of the original bio once the first section has been fully processed.
"

Note, this only happens in read path. In write path, the bio is flushed to
underlaying disks either by blk flush (from schedule) or offladed to raid1/10d.
It's queued in current-&gt;bio_list.

commit 9b622e2bbcf049c82e2550d35fb54ac205965f50 upstream.

md pending write counter must be incremented after bio is split,
otherwise it gets decremented too many times in end bio callback and
becomes negative.

[ Upstream commit 299b0685e31c9f3dcc2d58ee3beca761a40b44b3 ]

'reshape_position' tracks where in the reshape we have reached.
'reshape_safe' tracks where in the reshape we have safely recorded
in the metadata.

These are compared to determine when to update the metadata.
So it is important that reshape_safe is initialised properly.
Currently it isn't.  When starting a reshape from the beginning
it usually has the correct value by luck.  But when reducing the
number of devices in a RAID10, it has the wrong value and this leads
to the metadata not being updated correctly.
This can lead to corruption if the reshape is not allowed to complete.

This patch is suitable for any -stable kernel which supports RAID10
reshape, which is 3.5 and later.

<title>md/raid10: always initialise -&gt;state on newly allocated r10_bio</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cb8b12b5d81cf8522076f99a90bc3b795825c3b3</id>
<content type='text'>
Most places which allocate an r10_bio zero the -&gt;state, some don't.
As the r10_bio comes from a mempool, and the allocation function uses
kzalloc it is often zero anyway.  But sometimes it isn't and it is
best to be safe.

I only noticed this because of the bug fixed by an earlier patch
where the r10_bios allocated for a reshape were left around to
be used by a subsequent resync.  In that case the R10BIO_IsReshape
flag caused problems.
