2012-11-20md: make sure everything is freed when dm-raid stops an array.NeilBrown1-2/+14
md_stop() would stop an array, but not free various attached data structures. For internal arrays, these are freed later in do_md_stop() or mddev_put(), but they don't apply for dm-raid arrays. So get md_stop() to free them, and only all it from dm-raid. For internal arrays we now call __md_stop. Reported-by: majianpeng <majianpeng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2012-10-11md: refine reporting of resync/reshape delays.NeilBrown1-7/+18
If 'resync_max' is set to 0 (as is often done when starting a reshape, so the mdadm can remain in control during a sensitive period), and if the reshape request is initially delayed because another array using the same array is resyncing or reshaping etc, when user-space cannot easily tell when the delay changes from being due to a conflicting reshape, to being due to resync_max = 0. So introduce a new state: (curr_resync == 3) to reflect this, make sure it is visible both via /proc/mdstat and via the "sync_completed" sysfs attribute, and ensure that the event transition from one delay state to the other is properly notified.

2012-10-11md: make sure manual changes to recovery checkpoint are saved.NeilBrown1-0/+2
If you make an array bigger but suppress resync of the new region with mdadm --grow /dev/mdX --size=max --assume-clean then stop the array before anything is written to it, the effect of the "--assume-clean" is lost and the array will resync the new space when restarted.

2012-10-11md: writing to sync_action should clear the read-auto state.NeilBrown1-0/+7
In some cases array are started in 'read-auto' state where in nothing gets written to any device until the array is written to. The purpose of this is to make accidental auto-assembly of the wrong arrays less of a risk, and to allow arrays to be started to read suspend-to-disk images without actually changing anything (as might happen if the array were dirty and a resync seemed necessary). Explicitly writing the 'sync_action' for a read-auto array currently doesn't clear the read-auto state, so the sync action doesn't happen, which can be confusing. So allow any successful write to sync_action to clear any read-auto state. Reported-by: Alexander Kühn <alexander.kuehn@nagilum.de> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2012-09-19md: make sure metadata is updated when spares are activated or removed.NeilBrown1-1/+5
It isn't always necessary to update the metadata when spares are removed as the presence-or-not of a spare isn't really important to the integrity of an array. Also activating a spare doesn't always require updating the metadata as the update on 'recovery-completed' is usually sufficient. However the introduction of 'replacement' devices have made these transitions sometimes more important. For example the 'Replacement' flag isn't cleared until the original device is removed, so we need to ensure a metadata update after that 'spare' is removed. So set MD_CHANGE_DEVS whenever a spare is activated or removed, to complement the current situation where it is set when a spare is added or a device is failed (or a number of other less common situations). This is suitable for -stable as out-of-data metadata could lead to data corruption. This is only relevant for 3.3 and later 9when 'replacement' as introduced.

This seemed like a good idea at the time, but after further thought I cannot see it making a difference other than very occasionally and testing to try to exercise the case it is most likely to help did not show any performance difference by removing it. So remove the counting of active plugs and allow 'pending writes' to be activated at any time, not just when no plugs are active. This is only relevant when there is a write-intent bitmap, and the updating of the bitmap will likely introduce enough delay that the single-threading of bitmap updates will be enough to collect large numbers of updates together. Removing this will make it easier to centralise the unplug code, and will clear the other for other unplug enhancements which have a measurable effect.

2012-07-19md: avoid crash when stopping md array races with closing other open fds.NeilBrown1-13/+23
md will refuse to stop an array if any other fd (or mounted fs) is using it. When any fs is unmounted of when the last open fd is closed all pending IO will be flushed (e.g. sync_blockdev call in __blkdev_put) so there will be no pending IO to worry about when the array is stopped. However in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to stop the array one must first get and open fd on the block device. If some fd is being used to write to the block device and it is closed after mdadm open the block device, but before mdadm issues the STOP_ARRAY ioctl, then there will be no last-close on the md device so __blkdev_put will not call sync_blockdev. If this happens, then IO can still be in-flight while md tears down the array and bad things can happen (use-after-free and subsequent havoc). So in the case where do_md_stop is being called from an open file descriptor, call sync_block after taking the mutex to ensure there will be no new openers. This is needed when setting a read-write device to read-only too. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: majianpeng <majianpeng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2012-07-19md: fix bug in handling of new_data_offsetNeilBrown1-0/+1
commit c6563a8c38fde3c1c7fc925a10bde3ca20799301 md: add possibility to change data-offset for devices. introduced a 'new_data_offset' attribute which should normally be the same as 'data_offset', but can be explicitly set to a different value to allow a reshape operation to move the data. Unfortunately when the 'data_offset' is explicitly set through sysfs, the new_data_offset is not also set, so the two would become out-of-sync incorrectly. One result of this is that trying to set the 'size' after the 'data_offset' would fail because it is not permitted to set the size when the 'data_offset' and 'new_data_offset' are different - as that can be confusing. Consequently when mdadm tried to do this while assembling an IMSM array it would fail. This bug was introduced in 3.5-rc1.

2012-05-22DM RAID: Set recovery flags on resumeJonathan Brassow1-3/+2
Properly initialize MD recovery flags when resuming device-mapper devices. When a device-mapper device is suspended, all I/O must stop. This is done by calling 'md_stop_writes' and 'mddev_suspend'. These calls in-turn manipulate the recovery flags - including setting 'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN'. The DM device may have been suspended while recovery was not yet complete, so the process needs to pick-up where it left off. Since 'mddev_resume' does not unset 'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN' and set 'MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED', we must do it ourselves. 'MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED' can safely be set in 'mddev_resume', but 'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN' must be set outside of 'mddev_resume' due to how MD handles RAID reshaping. (e.g. It is possible for a user to delay reshaping a RAID5->RAID6 by purposefully setting 'MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN'. Clearing it in 'mddev_resume' would override the desired behavior.) Because 'mddev_resume' already unconditionally calls 'md_wakeup_thread(mddev->thread)' there is no need to make this call from 'raid_resume' since it calls 'mddev_resume'. Also clean up where level_store calls mddev_resume() - it current duplicates some of the funcitons of that call. - NB Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2012-05-22md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage.NeilBrown1-2/+3
An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2012-05-21md: use resync_max_sectors for reshape as well as resync.NeilBrown1-3/+5
Some resync type operations need to act on the address space of the device, others on the address space of the array. This only affects RAID10, so it sets resync_max_sectors to the array size (it defaults to the device size), and that is currently used for resync only. However reshape of a RAID10 must be done against the array size, not device size, so change code to use resync_max_sectors for both the resync and the reshape cases. This does not affect RAID5 or RAID1, just RAID10. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2012-05-21md: add possibility to change data-offset for devices.NeilBrown1-21/+196
When reshaping we can avoid costly intermediate backup by changing the 'start' address of the array on the device (if there is enough room). So as a first step, allow such a change to be requested through sysfs, and recorded in v1.x metadata. (As we didn't previous check that all 'pad' fields were zero, we need a new FEATURE flag for this. A (belatedly) check that all remaining 'pad' fields are zero to avoid a repeat of this) The new data offset must be requested separately for each device. This allows each to have a different change in the data offset. This is not likely to be used often but as data_offset can be set per-device, new_data_offset should be too. This patch also removes the 'acknowledged' arg to rdev_set_badblocks as it is never used and never will be. At the same time we add a new arg ('in_new') which is currently always zero but will be used more soon. When a reshape finishes we will need to update the data_offset and rdev->sectors. So provide an exported function to do that. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2012-05-21md: allow a reshape operation to be reversed.NeilBrown1-2/+65
Currently a reshape operation always progresses from the start of the array to the end unless the number of devices is being reduced, in which case it progressed in the opposite direction. To reverse a partial reshape which changes the number of devices you can stop the array and re-assemble with the raid-disks numbers reversed and it will undo. However for a reshape that does not change the number of devices it is not possible to reverse the reshape in the middle - you have to wait until it completes. So add a 'reshape_direction' attribute with is either 'forwards' or 'backwards' and can be explicitly set when delta_disks is zero. This will become more important when we allow the data_offset to change in a reshape. Then the explicit statement of what direction is being used will be more useful. This can be enabled in raid5 trivially as it already supports reverse reshape and just needs to use a different trigger to request it. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2012-05-21md: using GFP_NOIO to allocate bio for flush requestShaohua Li1-1/+1
A flush request is usually issued in transaction commit code path, so using GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory for flush request bio falls into the classic deadlock issue. This is suitable for any -stable kernel to which it applies as it avoids a possible deadlock.

2012-05-17MD: Add del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend (fix nasty panic)Jonathan Brassow1-0/+2
Use del_timer_sync to remove timer before mddev_suspend finishes. We don't want a timer going off after an mddev_suspend is called. This is especially true with device-mapper, since it can call the destructor function immediately following a suspend. This results in the removal (kfree) of the structures upon which the timer depends - resulting in a very ugly panic. Therefore, we add a del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend to prevent this.

2012-04-24md: fix possible corruption of array metadata on shutdown.NeilBrown1-1/+2
commit c744a65c1e2d59acc54333ce8 md: don't set md arrays to readonly on shutdown. removed the possibility of a 'BUG' when data is written to an array that has just been switched to read-only, but also introduced the possibility that the array metadata could be corrupted. If, when md_notify_reboot gets the mddev lock, the array is in a state where it is assembled but hasn't been started (as can happen if the personality module is not available, or in other unusual situations), then incorrect metadata will be written out making it impossible to re-assemble the array. So only call __md_stop_writes() if the array has actually been activated. This patch is needed for any stable kernel which has had the above commit applied.

2012-04-24md: don't call ->add_disk unless there is good reason.NeilBrown1-2/+2
Commit 7bfec5f35c68121e7b18 md/raid5: If there is a spare and a want_replacement device, start replacement. cause md_check_recovery to call ->add_disk much more often. Instead of only when the array is degraded, it is now called whenever md_check_recovery finds anything useful to do, which includes updating the metadata for clean<->dirty transition. This causes unnecessary work, and causes info messages from ->add_disk to be reported much too often. So refine md_check_recovery to only do any actual recovery checking (including ->add_disk) if MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED is set. This fix is suitable for 3.3.y: Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Jan Ceuleers <jan.ceuleers@computer.org> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2012-03-19md: fix clearing of the 'changed' flags for the bad blocks list.NeilBrown1-1/+2
In super_1_sync (the first hunk) we need to clear 'changed' before checking read_seqretry(), otherwise we might race with other code adding a bad block and so won't retry later. In md_update_sb (the second hunk), in the case where there is no metadata (neither persistent nor external), we treat any bad blocks as an error. However we need to clear the 'changed' flag before calling md_ack_all_badblocks, else it won't do anything. This patch is suitable for -stable release 3.0 and later.

2012-03-19md/raid10: handle merge_bvec_fn in member devices.NeilBrown1-0/+1
Currently we don't honour merge_bvec_fn in member devices so if there is one, we force all requests to be single-page at most. This is not ideal. So enhance the raid10 merge_bvec_fn to check that function in children as well. This introduces a small problem. There is no locking around calls the ->merge_bvec_fn and subsequent calls to ->make_request. So a device added between these could end up getting a request which violates its merge_bvec_fn. Currently the best we can do is synchronize_sched(). This will work providing no preemption happens. If there is preemption, we just have to hope that new devices are largely consistent with old devices. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2012-03-19md: tidy up rdev_for_each usage.NeilBrown1-37/+37
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.

2012-03-19md: don't set md arrays to readonly on shutdown.NeilBrown1-22/+15
It seems that with recent kernel, writeback can still be happening while shutdown is happening, and consequently data can be written after the md reboot notifier switches all arrays to read-only. This causes a BUG. So don't switch them to read-only - just mark them clean and set 'safemode' to '2' which mean that immediately after any write the array will be switch back to 'clean'. This could result in the shutdown happening when array is marked dirty, thus forcing a resync on reboot. However if you reboot without performing a "sync" first, you get to keep both halves. This is suitable for any stable kernel (though there might be some conflicts with obvious fixes in earlier kernels). Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
