2014-08-08md: don't allow bitmap file to be added to raid0/linear.NeilBrown1-2/+2
An array can only accept a bitmap if it will call bitmap_daemon_work periodically, which means it needs a thread running. If there is no thread, don't allow a bitmap to be added. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2014-07-31md: disable probing for md devices 512 and over.NeilBrown1-2/+2
The way md devices are traditionally created in the kernel is simply to open the device with the desired major/minor number. This can be problematic as some support tools, notably udev and programs run by udev, can open a device just to see what is there, and find that it has created something. It is easy for a race to cause udev to open an md device just after it was destroy, causing it to suddenly re-appear. For some time we have had an alternate way to create md devices echo md_somename > /sys/modules/md_mod/paramaters/new_array This will always use a minor number of 512 or higher, which mdadm normally avoids. Using this makes the creation-by-opening unnecessary, but does not disable it, so it is still there to cause problems. This patch disable probing for devices with a major of 9 (MD_MAJOR) and a minor of 512 and up. This devices created by writing to new_array cannot be re-created by opening the node in /dev.

2014-07-03md: flush writes before starting a recovery.NeilBrown1-0/+13
When we write to a degraded array which has a bitmap, we make sure the relevant bit in the bitmap remains set when the write completes (so a 're-add' can quickly rebuilt a temporarily-missing device). If, immediately after such a write starts, we incorporate a spare, commence recovery, and skip over the region where the write is happening (because the 'needs recovery' flag isn't set yet), then that write will not get to the new device. Once the recovery finishes the new device will be trusted, but will have incorrect data, leading to possible corruption. We cannot set the 'needs recovery' flag when we start the write as we do not know easily if the write will be "degraded" or not. That depends on details of the particular raid level and particular write request. This patch fixes a corruption issue of long standing and so it suitable for any -stable kernel. It applied correctly to 3.0 at least and will minor editing to earlier kernels.

2014-05-29md: always set MD_RECOVERY_INTR when interrupting a reshape thread.NeilBrown1-0/+1
Commit 8313b8e57f55b15e5b7f7fc5d1630bbf686a9a97 md: fix problem when adding device to read-only array with bitmap. added a called to md_reap_sync_thread() which cause a reshape thread to be interrupted (in particular, it could cause md_thread() to never even call md_do_sync()). However it didn't set MD_RECOVERY_INTR so ->finish_reshape() would not know that the reshape didn't complete. This only happens when mddev->ro is set and normally reshape threads don't run in that situation. But raid5 and raid10 can start a reshape thread during "run" is the array is in the middle of a reshape. They do this even if ->ro is set. So it is best to set MD_RECOVERY_INTR before abortingg the sync thread, just in case. Though it rare for this to trigger a problem it can cause data corruption because the reshape isn't finished properly. So it is suitable for any stable which the offending commit was applied to.

2014-05-28md: always set MD_RECOVERY_INTR when aborting a reshape or other "resync".NeilBrown1-1/+3
If mddev->ro is set, md_to_sync will (correctly) abort. However in that case MD_RECOVERY_INTR isn't set. If a RESHAPE had been requested, then ->finish_reshape() will be called and it will think the reshape was successful even though nothing happened. Normally a resync will not be requested if ->ro is set, but if an array is stopped while a reshape is on-going, then when the array is started, the reshape will be restarted. If the array is also set read-only at this point, the reshape will instantly appear to success, resulting in data corruption. Consequently, this patch is suitable for any -stable kernel.

2014-05-06md: avoid possible spinning md thread at shutdown.NeilBrown1-1/+2
If an md array with externally managed metadata (e.g. DDF or IMSM) is in use, then we should not set safemode==2 at shutdown because: 1/ this is ineffective: user-space need to be involved in any 'safemode' handling, 2/ The safemode management code doesn't cope with safemode==2 on external metadata and md_check_recover enters an infinite loop. Even at shutdown, an infinite-looping process can be problematic, so this could cause shutdown to hang. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org (any kernel) Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2014-04-09md: avoid oops on unload if some process is in poll or select.NeilBrown1-0/+16
If md-mod is unloaded while some process is in poll() or select(), then that process maintains a pointer to md_event_waiters, and when the try to unlink from that list, they will oops. The procfs infrastructure ensures that ->poll won't be called after remove_proc_entry, but doesn't provide a wait_queue_head for us to use, and the waitqueue code doesn't provide a way to remove all listeners from a waitqueue. So we need to: 1/ make sure no further references to md_event_waiters are taken (by setting md_unloading) 2/ wake up all processes currently waiting, and 3/ wait until all those processes have disconnected from our wait_queue_head.

2014-04-09md/bitmap: don't abuse i_writecount for bitmap files.NeilBrown1-33/+16
md bitmap code currently tries to use i_writecount to stop any other process from writing to out bitmap file. But that is really an abuse and has bit-rotted so locking is all wrong. So discard that - root should be allowed to shoot self in foot. Still use it in a much less intrusive way to stop the same file being used as bitmap on two different array, and apply other checks to ensure the file is at least vaguely usable for bitmap storage (is regular, is open for write.

2014-01-14md: ensure metadata is writen after raid level change.NeilBrown1-0/+2
level_store() currently does not make sure the metadata is updates to reflect the new raid level. It simply sets MD_CHANGE_DEVS. Any level with a ->thread will quickly notice this and update the metadata. However RAID0 and Linear do not have a thread so no metadata update happens until the array is stopped. At that point the metadata is written. This is later that we would like. While the delay doesn't risk any data it can cause confusion. So if there is no md thread, immediately update the metadata after a level change. Reported-by: Richard Michael <rmichael@edgeofthenet.org> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2014-01-14md: allow a partially recovered device to be hot-added to an array.NeilBrown1-1/+2
When adding a new device into an array it is normally important to clear any stale data from ->recovery_offset else the new device may not be recovered properly. However when re-adding a device which is known to be nearly in-sync, this is not needed and can be detrimental. The (bitmap-based) resync will still happen, and further recovery is only needed from where-ever it was already up to. So if save_raid_disk is set, signifying a re-add, don't clear ->recovery_offset. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2014-01-14md: Change handling of save_raid_disk and metadata update during recovery.NeilBrown1-19/+23
Since commit d70ed2e4fafdbef0800e739 MD: Allow restarting an interrupted incremental recovery. we don't write out the metadata to devices while they are recovering. This had a good reason, but has unfortunate consequences. This patch changes things to make them work better. At issue is what happens if the array is shut down while a recovery is happening, particularly a bitmap-guided recovery. Ideally the recovery should pick up where it left off. However the metadata cannot represent the state "A recovery is in process which is guided by the bitmap". Before the above mentioned commit, we wrote metadata to the device which said "this is being recovered and it is up to <here>". So after a restart, a full recovery (not bitmap-guided) would happen from where-ever it was up to. After the commit the metadata wasn't updated so it still said "This device is fully in sync with <this> event count". That leads to a bitmap-based recovery following the whole bitmap, which should be a lot less work than a full recovery from some starting point. So this was an improvement. However updates some metadata but not all leads to other problems. In particular, the metadata written to the fully-up-to-date device record that the array has all devices present (even though some are recovering). So on restart, mdadm wants to find all devices and expects them to have current event counts. Obviously it doesn't (some have old event counts) so (when assembling with --incremental) it waits indefinitely for the rest of the expected devices. It really is wrong to not update all the metadata together. Do that is bound to cause confusion. Instead, we should make it possible to record the truth in the metadata. i.e. we need to be able to record that a device is being recovered based on the bitmap. We already have a Feature flag to say that recovery is happening. We now add another one to say that it is a bitmap-based recovery. With this we can remove the code that disables the write-out of metadata on some devices. So this patch: - moves the setting of 'saved_raid_disk' from add_new_disk to the validate_super methods. This makes sure it is always set properly, both when adding a new device to an array, and when assembling an array from a collection of devices. - Adds a metadata flag MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_BITMAP which is only used if MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_OFFSET is set, and record that a bitmap-based recovery is allowed. This is only present in v1.x metadata. v0.90 doesn't support devices which are in the middle of recovery at all. - Only skips writing metadata to Faulty devices. - Also allows rdev state to be set to "-insync" via sysfs. This can be used for external-metadata arrays. When the 'role' is set the device is assumed to be in-sync. If, after setting the role, we set the state to "-insync", the role is moved to saved_raid_disk which effectively says the device is partly in-sync with that slot and needs a bitmap recovery.

2014-01-14md: fix problem when adding device to read-only array with bitmap.NeilBrown1-3/+15
If an array is started degraded, and then the missing device is found it can be re-added and a minimal bitmap-based recovery will bring it fully up-to-date. If the array is read-only a recovery would not be allowed. But also if the array is read-only and the missing device was present very recently, then there could be no need for any recovery at all, so we simply include the device in the read-only array without any recovery. However... if the missing device was removed a little longer ago it could be missing some updates, but if a bitmap is present it will be conditionally accepted pending a bitmap-based update. We don't currently detect this case properly and will include that old device into the read-only array with no recovery even though it really needs a recovery. This patch keeps track of whether a bitmap-based-recovery is really needed or not in the new Bitmap_sync rdev flag. If that is set, then the device will not be added to a read-only array.

2013-11-19md/raid5: avoid deadlock when raid5 array has unack badblocks during ↵NeilBrown1-19/+49
md_stop_writes. When raid5 recovery hits a fresh badblock, this badblock will flagged as unack badblock until md_update_sb() is called. But md_stop will take reconfig lock which means raid5d can't call md_update_sb() in md_check_recovery(), the badblock will always be unack, so raid5d thread enters an infinite loop and md_stop_write() can never stop sync_thread. This causes deadlock. To solve this, when STOP_ARRAY ioctl is issued and sync_thread is running, we need set md->recovery FROZEN and INTR flags and wait for sync_thread to stop before we (re)take reconfig lock. This requires that raid5 reshape_request notices MD_RECOVERY_INTR (which it probably should have noticed anyway) and stops waiting for a metadata update in that case.

2013-11-19md: use MD_RECOVERY_INTR instead of kthread_should_stop in resync thread.NeilBrown1-26/+14
We currently use kthread_should_stop() in various places in the sync/reshape code to abort early. However some places set MD_RECOVERY_INTR but don't immediately call md_reap_sync_thread() (and we will shortly get another one). When this happens we are relying on md_check_recovery() to reap the thread and that only happen when it finishes normally. So MD_RECOVERY_INTR must lead to a normal finish without the kthread_should_stop() test. So replace all relevant tests, and be more careful when the thread is interrupted not to acknowledge that latest step in a reshape as it may not be fully committed yet. Also add a test on MD_RECOVERY_INTR in the 'is_mddev_idle' loop so we don't wait have to wait for the speed to drop before we can abort. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2013-11-14md: fix calculation of stacking limits on level change.NeilBrown1-0/+1
The various ->run routines of md personalities assume that the 'queue' has been initialised by the blk_set_stacking_limits() call in md_alloc(). However when the level is changed (by level_store()) the ->run routine for the new level is called for an array which has already had the stacking limits modified. This can result in incorrect final settings. So call blk_set_stacking_limits() before ->run in level_store(). A specific consequence of this bug is that it causes discard_granularity to be set incorrectly when reshaping a RAID4 to a RAID0. This is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.3 in which blk_set_stacking_limits() was introduced.

Pull block IO core updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the pull request for the core changes in the block layer for 3.13. It contains: - The new blk-mq request interface. This is a new and more scalable queueing model that marries the best part of the request based interface we currently have (which is fully featured, but scales poorly) and the bio based "interface" which the new drivers for high IOPS devices end up using because it's much faster than the request based one. The bio interface has no block layer support, since it taps into the stack much earlier. This means that drivers end up having to implement a lot of functionality on their own, like tagging, timeout handling, requeue, etc. The blk-mq interface provides all these. Some drivers even provide a switch to select bio or rq and has code to handle both, since things like merging only works in the rq model and hence is faster for some workloads. This is a huge mess. Conversion of these drivers nets us a substantial code reduction. Initial results on converting SCSI to this model even shows an 8x improvement on single queue devices. So while the model was intended to work on the newer multiqueue devices, it has substantial improvements for "classic" hardware as well. This code has gone through extensive testing and development, it's now ready to go. A pull request is coming to convert virtio-blk to this model will be will be coming as well, with more drivers scheduled for 3.14 conversion. - Two blktrace fixes from Jan and Chen Gang. - A plug merge fix from Alireza Haghdoost. - Conversion of __get_cpu_var() from Christoph Lameter. - Fix for sector_div() with 64-bit divider from Geert Uytterhoeven. - A fix for a race between request completion and the timeout handling from Jeff Moyer. This is what caused the merge conflict with blk-mq/core, in case you are looking at that. - A dm stacking fix from Mike Snitzer. - A code consolidation fix and duplicated code removal from Kent Overstreet. - A handful of block bug fixes from Mikulas Patocka, fixing a loop crash and memory corruption on blk cg. - Elevator switch bug fix from Tomoki Sekiyama.

2013-10-24md: avoid deadlock when md_set_badblocks.Bian Yu1-2/+3
When operate harddisk and hit errors, md_set_badblocks is called after scsi_restart_operations which already disabled the irq. but md_set_badblocks will call write_sequnlock_irq and enable irq. so softirq can preempt the current thread and that may cause a deadlock.

2013-09-26sysfs: clean up sysfs_get_dirent()Tejun Heo1-1/+1
The pre-existing sysfs interfaces which take explicit namespace argument are weird in that they place the optional @ns in front of @name which is contrary to the established convention. For example, we end up forcing vast majority of sysfs_get_dirent() users to do sysfs_get_dirent(parent, NULL, name), which is silly and error-prone especially as @ns and @name may be interchanged without causing compilation warning. This renames sysfs_get_dirent() to sysfs_get_dirent_ns() and swap the positions of @name and @ns, and sysfs_get_dirent() is now a wrapper around sysfs_get_dirent_ns(). This makes confusions a lot less likely. There are other interfaces which take @ns before @name. They'll be updated by following patches. This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes. v2: EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() wasn't updated leading to undefined symbol error on module builds. Reported by build test robot. Fixed.

2013-08-27md: avoid deadlock when dirty buffers during md_stop.NeilBrown1-9/+30
When the last process closes /dev/mdX sync_blockdev will be called so that all buffers get flushed. So if it is then opened for the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to be sent there will be nothing to flush. However if we open /dev/mdX in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl just moments before some other process which was writing closes their file descriptor, then there won't be a 'last close' and the buffers might not get flushed. So do_md_stop() calls sync_blockdev(). However at this point it is holding ->reconfig_mutex. So if the array is currently 'clean' then the writes from sync_blockdev() will not complete until the array can be marked dirty and that won't happen until some other thread can get ->reconfig_mutex. So we deadlock. We need to move the sync_blockdev() call to before we take ->reconfig_mutex. However then some other thread could open /dev/mdX and write to it after we call sync_blockdev() and before we actually stop the array. This can leave dirty data in the page cache which is awkward. So introduce new flag MD_STILL_CLOSED. Set it before calling sync_blockdev(), clear it if anyone does open the file, and abort the STOP_ARRAY attempt if it gets set before we lock against further opens. It is still possible to get problems if you open /dev/mdX, write to it, then issue the STOP_ARRAY ioctl. Just don't do that. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

It also allows devices to be added to a read-write array and to end up skipping recovery. This patch removes the offending piece of code pending a rewrite for a subsequent release. More specifically: If the array has a bitmap, then the device will still need a bitmap based resync ('saved_raid_disk' is set under different conditions is a bitmap is present). If the array doesn't have a bitmap, then this is correct as long as nothing has been written to the array since the metadata was checked by ->validate_super. However there is no locking to ensure that there was no write. Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption so patch is suitable for 3.10-stable.
