2011-08-31md/raid5: fix a hang on device failure.NeilBrown1-1/+1
Waiting for a 'blocked' rdev to become unblocked in the raid5d thread cannot work with internal metadata as it is the raid5d thread which will clear the blocked flag. This wasn't a problem in 3.0 and earlier as we only set the blocked flag when external metadata was used then. However we now set it always, so we need to be more careful. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-08-30md: fix clearing of 'blocked' flag in the presence of bad blocks.NeilBrown1-1/+1
When the 'blocked' flag on a device is cleared while there are unacknowledged bad blocks we must fail the device. This is needed for backwards compatability of the interface. The code currently uses the wrong test for "unacknowledged bad blocks exist". Change it to the right test. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-08-25md/linear: avoid corrupting structure while waiting for rcu_free to complete.NeilBrown1-1/+1
I don't know what I was thinking putting 'rcu' after a dynamically sized array! The array could still be in use when we call rcu_free() (That is the point) so we mustn't corrupt it. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-08-25md: use REQ_NOIDLE flag in md_super_write()Namhyung Kim1-1/+1
Queue idling is used for the anticipation of immediate sequencial I/O's but md_super_write() is a kind of one- shot operation, coupled with md_super_wait(), so the idling in this case will be just a waste of time. Specifying REQ_NOIDLE prevents it. Instead of adding the flag to submit_bio() directly, use pre-defined macro WRITE_FLUSH_FUA.

2011-08-25md: ensure changes to 'write-mostly' are reflected in metadata.NeilBrown1-0/+5
The 'write-mostly' flag can be changed through sysfs. With 0.90 metadata, those changes are reflected in the metadata. For 1.x metadata, they aren't. So fix super_1_sync to record 'write-mostly' status. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2011-08-25md: report failure if a 'set faulty' request doesn't.NeilBrown1-1/+6
Sometimes a device will refuse to be set faulty. e.g. RAID1 will never let the last working device become faulty. So check if "md_error()" did manage to set the faulty flag and fail with EBUSY if it didn't.

2011-08-02dm table: set flush capability based on underlying devicesMike Snitzer2-1/+43
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.

2011-08-02dm crypt: optionally support discard requestsMilan Broz1-4/+45
Add optional parameter field to dmcrypt table and support "allow_discards" option. Discard requests bypass crypt queue processing. Bio is simple remapped to underlying device. Note that discard will be never enabled by default because of security consequences. It is up to the administrator to enable it for encrypted devices. (Note that userspace cryptsetup does not understand new optional parameters yet. Support for this will come later. Until then, you should use 'dmsetup' to enable and disable this.)

2011-08-02dm raid: support metadata devicesJonathan Brassow2-18/+406
Add the ability to parse and use metadata devices to dm-raid. Although not strictly required, without the metadata devices, many features of RAID are unavailable. They are used to store a superblock and bitmap. The role, or position in the array, of each device must be recorded in its superblock. This is to help with fault handling, array reshaping, and sanity checks. RAID 4/5/6 devices must be loaded in a specific order: in this way, the 'array_position' field helps validate the correctness of the mapping when it is loaded. It can be used during reshaping to identify which devices are added/removed. Fault handling is impossible without this field. For example, when a device fails it is recorded in the superblock. If this is a RAID1 device and the offending device is removed from the array, there must be a way during subsequent array assembly to determine that the failed device was the one removed. This is done by correlating the 'array_position' field and the bit-field variable 'failed_devices'.

2011-08-02dm ioctl: forbid multiple device specifiersMikulas Patocka1-0/+6

2011-08-02dm ioctl: introduce __get_dev_cellMikulas Patocka1-17/+24

2011-08-02dm snapshot: skip reading origin when overwriting complete chunkMikulas Patocka2-3/+88
If we write a full chunk in the snapshot, skip reading the origin device because the whole chunk will be overwritten anyway. This patch changes the snapshot write logic when a full chunk is written. In this case: 1. allocate the exception 2. dispatch the bio (but don't report the bio completion to device mapper) 3. write the exception record 4. report bio completed Callbacks must be done through the kcopyd thread, because callbacks must not race with each other. So we create two new functions: dm_kcopyd_prepare_callback: allocate a job structure and prepare the callback. (This function must not be called from interrupt context.) dm_kcopyd_do_callback: submit callback. (This function may be called from interrupt context.) Performance test (on snapshots with 4k chunk size): without the patch: non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 17.7MB/s direct-io sequential write (dd): 20.9MB/s non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.44s with the patch: non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 26.5MB/s direct-io sequential write (dd): 33.2MB/s non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.27s Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2011-08-02dm: ignore merge_bvec for snapshots when safeMikulas Patocka3-2/+64
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.

2011-08-02dm table: fix discard supportMike Snitzer2-9/+9
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'.

2011-08-02dm io: flush cpu cache with vmapped ioMikulas Patocka1-2/+27
For normal kernel pages, CPU cache is synchronized by the dma layer. However, this is not done for pages allocated with vmalloc. If we do I/O to/from vmallocated pages, we must synchronize CPU cache explicitly. Prior to doing I/O on vmallocated page we must call flush_kernel_vmap_range to flush dirty cache on the virtual address. After finished read we must call invalidate_kernel_vmap_range to invalidate cache on the virtual address, so that accesses to the virtual address return newly read data and not stale data from CPU cache. This patch fixes metadata corruption on dm-snapshots on PA-RISC and possibly other architectures with caches indexed by virtual address.

2011-07-28md/raid10: Handle read errors during recovery better.NeilBrown1-33/+121
Currently when we get a read error during recovery, we simply abort the recovery. Instead, repeat the read in page-sized blocks. On successful reads, write to the target. On read errors, record a bad block on the destination, and only if that fails do we abort the recovery. As we now retry reads we need to know where we read from. This was in bi_sector but that can be changed during a read attempt. So store the correct from_addr and to_addr in the r10_bio for later access. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown<neilb@suse.de>
2011-07-28md/raid10: simplify read error handling during recovery.NeilBrown1-5/+4
If a read error is detected during recovery the code currently fails the read device. This isn't really necessary. recovery_request_write will signal a write error to end_sync_write and it will record a write error on the destination device which will record a bad block there or kick it from the array. So just remove this call to do md_error. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2011-07-28md/raid10: attempt to fix read errors during resync/checkNeilBrown1-4/+5
We already attempt to fix read errors found during normal IO and a 'repair' process. It is best to try to repair them at any time they are found, so move a test so that during sync and check a read error will be corrected by over-writing with good data. If both (all) devices have known bad blocks in the sync section we won't try to fix even though the bad blocks might not overlap. That should be considered later. Also if we hit a read error during recovery we don't try to fix it. It would only be possible to fix if there were at least three copies of data, which is not very common with RAID10. But it should still be considered later. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

When recovering one or more devices, if all the good devices have bad blocks we should record a bad block on the device being rebuilt. If this fails, we need to abort the recovery. To ensure we don't think that we aborted later than we actually did, we need to move the check for MD_RECOVERY_INTR earlier in md_do_sync, in particular before mddev->curr_resync is updated.

During resync/recovery limit the size of the request to avoid reading into a bad block that does not start at-or-before the current read address. Similarly if there is a bad block at this address, don't allow the current request to extend beyond the end of that bad block. Now that we don't ever read from known bad blocks, it is safe to allow devices with those blocks into the array. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
