Due to a bug introduced in Linux 3.14 we cannot determine the
correctly layout for a multi-zone RAID0 array - there are two
possibilities.
It is possible to tell the kernel which to chose using a module
parameter, but this can be clumsy to use. It would be best if
the choice were recorded in the metadata.
So add a feature flag for this purpose.
If it is set, then the 'layout' field of the superblock is used
to determine which layout to use.
If this flag is not set, then mddev->layout gets set to -1,
which causes the module parameter to be required.

If the drives in a RAID0 are not all the same size, the array is
divided into zones.
The first zone covers all drives, to the size of the smallest.
The second zone covers all drives larger than the smallest, up to
the size of the second smallest - etc.
A change in Linux 3.14 unintentionally changed the layout for the
second and subsequent zones. All the correct data is still stored, but
each chunk may be assigned to a different device than in pre-3.14 kernels.
This can lead to data corruption.
It is not possible to determine what layout to use - it depends which
kernel the data was written by.
So we add a module parameter to allow the old (0) or new (1) layout to be
specified, and refused to assemble an affected array if that parameter is
not set.

If stripe in batch list is set with STRIPE_HANDLE flag, then the stripe

error happens to the batch_head at the same time, break_stripe_batch_list
is called, then below warning could happen (the same report in [1]), it

While MD continues to count read errors returned by the lower layer.
If those errors are -EILSEQ, instead of -EIO, it should NOT increase
the read_errors count.
When RAID6 is set up on dm-integrity target that detects massive
corruption, the leg will be ejected from the array. Even if the
issue is correctable with a sector re-write and the array has
necessary redundancy to correct it.
The leg is ejected because it runs up the rdev->read_errors beyond
conf->max_nr_stripes. The return status in dm-drypt when there is
a data integrity error is -EILSEQ (BLK_STS_PROTECTION).

When elevator_init_mq() is called from blk_mq_init_allocated_queue(),
the only information known about the device is the number of hardware
queues as the block device scan by the device driver is not completed
yet for most drivers. The device type and elevator required features
are not set yet, preventing to correctly select the default elevator
most suitable for the device.
This currently affects all multi-queue zoned block devices which default
to the "none" elevator instead of the required "mq-deadline" elevator.
These drives currently include host-managed SMR disks connected to a
smartpqi HBA and null_blk block devices with zoned mode enabled.
Upcoming NVMe Zoned Namespace devices will also be affected.
Fix this by adding the boolean elevator_init argument to
blk_mq_init_allocated_queue() to control the execution of
elevator_init_mq(). Two cases exist:
1) elevator_init = false is used for calls to
blk_mq_init_allocated_queue() within blk_mq_init_queue(). In this
case, a call to elevator_init_mq() is added to __device_add_disk(),
resulting in the delayed initialization of the queue elevator
after the device driver finished probing the device information. This
effectively allows elevator_init_mq() access to more information
about the device.
2) elevator_init = true preserves the current behavior of initializing
the elevator directly from blk_mq_init_allocated_queue(). This case
is used for the special request based DM devices where the device
gendisk is created before the queue initialization and device
information (e.g. queue limits) is already known when the queue
initialization is executed.
Additionally, to make sure that the elevator initialization is never
done while requests are in-flight (there should be none when the device
driver calls device_add_disk()), freeze and quiesce the device request
queue before calling blk_mq_init_sched() in elevator_init_mq().

Currently md raid0/linear are not provided with any mechanism to validate
if an array member got removed or failed. The driver keeps sending BIOs
regardless of the state of array members, and kernel shows state 'clean'
in the 'array_state' sysfs attribute. This leads to the following
situation: if a raid0/linear array member is removed and the array is
mounted, some user writing to this array won't realize that errors are
happening unless they check dmesg or perform one fsync per written file.
Despite udev signaling the member device is gone, 'mdadm' cannot issue the
STOP_ARRAY ioctl successfully, given the array is mounted.
In other words, no -EIO is returned and writes (except direct ones) appear
normal. Meaning the user might think the wrote data is correctly stored in
the array, but instead garbage was written given that raid0 does stripping
(and so, it requires all its members to be working in order to not corrupt
data). For md/linear, writes to the available members will work fine, but
if the writes go to the missing member(s), it'll cause a file corruption
situation, whereas the portion of the writes to the missing devices aren't
written effectively.
This patch changes this behavior: we check if the block device's gendisk
is UP when submitting the BIO to the array member, and if it isn't, we flag
the md device as MD_BROKEN and fail subsequent I/Os to that device; a read
request to the array requiring data from a valid member is still completed.
While flagging the device as MD_BROKEN, we also show a rate-limited warning
in the kernel log.
A new array state 'broken' was added too: it mimics the state 'clean' in
every aspect, being useful only to distinguish if the array has some member
missing. We rely on the MD_BROKEN flag to put the array in the 'broken'
state. This state cannot be written in 'array_state' as it just shows
one or more members of the array are missing but acts like 'clean', it
wouldn't make sense to write it.
With this patch, the filesystem reacts much faster to the event of missing
array member: after some I/O errors, ext4 for instance aborts the journal
and prevents corruption. Without this change, we're able to keep writing
in the disk and after a machine reboot, e2fsck shows some severe fs errors
that demand fixing. This patch was tested in ext4 and xfs filesystems, and
requires a 'mdadm' counterpart to handle the 'broken' state.

The race was when a thread using closure_sync() notices cl->s->done == 1
before the thread calling closure_put() calls wake_up_process(). Then,
it's possible for that thread to return and exit just before
wake_up_process() is called - so we're trying to wake up a process that
no longer exists.
rcu_read_lock() is sufficient to protect against this, as there's an rcu
barrier somewhere in the process teardown path.

Until revalidate_disk() has completed, the size of a new md array will
appear to be zero.
So we shouldn't report, through array_state, that the array is active
until that time.
udev rules check array_state to see if the array is ready. As soon as
it appear to be zero, fsck can be run. If it find the size to be
zero, it will fail.
So add a new flag to provide an interlock between do_md_run() and
array_state_show(). This flag is set while do_md_run() is active and
it prevents array_state_show() from reporting that the array is
active.
Before do_md_run() is called, ->pers will be NULL so array is
definitely not active.
After do_md_run() is called, revalidate_disk() will have run and the
array will be completely ready.
We also move various sysfs_notify*() calls out of md_run() into
do_md_run() after MD_NOT_READY is cleared. This ensure the
information is ready before the notification is sent.
Prior to v4.12, array_state_show() was called with the
mddev->reconfig_mutex held, which provided exclusion with do_md_run().
Note that MD_NOT_READY cleared twice. This is deliberate to cover
both success and error paths with minimal noise.

Since commit 4ad23a976413 ("MD: use per-cpu counter for
writes_pending"), set_in_sync() is substantially more expensive: it
can wait for a full RCU grace period which can be 10s of milliseconds.
So we should only call it when the cost is justified.
md_check_recovery() currently calls set_in_sync() every time it finds
anything to do (on non-external active arrays). For an array
performing resync or recovery, this will be quite often.
Each call will introduce a delay to the md thread, which can noticeable
affect IO submission latency.
In md_check_recovery() we only need to call set_in_sync() if
'safemode' was non-zero at entry, meaning that there has been not
recent IO. So we save this "safemode was nonzero" state, and only
call set_in_sync() if it was non-zero.
This measurably reduces mean and maximum IO submission latency during
resync/recovery.

If the sector number is too high, dm_table_find_target() should return a

However, for some table sizes, the code in dm_table_find_target() that

Fix this bug by testing the sector number at the beginning of

Fix a crash that was introduced by the commit 724376a04d1a. The crash is
reported here: https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/issues/468
When reading from the integrity device, the function
dm_integrity_map_continue calls find_journal_node to find out if the
location to read is present in the journal. Then, it calculates how many
sectors are consecutively stored in the journal. Then, it locks the range
with add_new_range and wait_and_add_new_range.
The problem is that during wait_and_add_new_range, we hold no locks (we
don't hold ic->endio_wait.lock and we don't hold a range lock), so the
journal may change arbitrarily while wait_and_add_new_range sleeps.
The code then goes to __journal_read_write and hits
BUG_ON(journal_entry_get_sector(je) != logical_sector); because the
journal has changed.
In order to fix this bug, we need to re-check the journal location after
wait_and_add_new_range. We restrict the length to one block in order to
not complicate the code too much.

dm-zoned is observed to lock up or livelock in case of hardware
failure or some misconfiguration of the backing zoned device.
This patch adds a new dm-zoned target function that checks the status of
the backing device. If the request queue of the backing device is found
to be in dying state or the SCSI backing device enters offline state,
the health check code sets a dm-zoned target flag prompting all further
incoming I/O to be rejected. In order to detect backing device failures
timely, this new function is called in the request mapping path, at the
beginning of every reclaim run and before performing any metadata I/O.
The proper way out of this situation is to do
dmsetup remove <dm-zoned target>
and recreate the target when the problem with the backing device
is resolved.

Some errors are ignored in the I/O path during queueing chunks
for processing by chunk works. Since at least these errors are
transient in nature, it should be possible to retry the failed
incoming commands.
The fix -
Errors that can happen while queueing chunks are carried upwards
to the main mapping function and it now returns DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE
for any incoming requests that can not be properly queued.
Error logging/debug messages are added where needed.

There are several places in reclaim code where errors are not
propagated to the main function, dmz_reclaim(). This function
is responsible for unlocking zones that might be still locked
at the end of any failed reclaim iterations. As the result,
some device zones may be left permanently locked for reclaim,
degrading target's capability to reclaim zones.
This patch fixes these issues as follows -
Make sure that dmz_reclaim_buf(), dmz_reclaim_seq_data() and
dmz_reclaim_rnd_data() return error codes to the caller.
dmz_reclaim() function is renamed to dmz_do_reclaim() to avoid
clashing with "struct dmz_reclaim" and is modified to return the
error to the caller.
dmz_get_zone_for_reclaim() now returns an error instead of NULL
pointer and reclaim code checks for that error.
Error logging/debug messages are added where necessary.

This patch fixes a problem in dm-kcopyd that may leave jobs in
complete queue indefinitely in the event of backing storage failure.
This behavior has been observed while running 100% write file fio
workload against an XFS volume created on top of a dm-zoned target
device. If the underlying storage of dm-zoned goes to offline state
under I/O, kcopyd sometimes never issues the end copy callback and
dm-zoned reclaim work hangs indefinitely waiting for that completion.
This behavior was traced down to the error handling code in
process_jobs() function that places the failed job to complete_jobs
queue, but doesn't wake up the job handler. In case of backing device
failure, all outstanding jobs may end up going to complete_jobs queue
via this code path and then stay there forever because there are no
more successful I/O jobs to wake up the job handler.
This patch adds a wake() call to always wake up kcopyd job wait queue
for all I/O jobs that fail before dm_io() gets called for that job.
The patch also sets the write error status in all sub jobs that are
failed because their master job has failed.

Revert the commit bd293d071ffe65e645b4d8104f9d8fe15ea13862. The proper
fix has been made available with commit d0a255e795ab ("loop: set
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO for the worker thread").
Note that the fix offered by commit bd293d071ffe doesn't really prevent
the deadlock from occuring - if we look at the stacktrace reported by
Junxiao Bi, we see that it hangs in bit_wait_io and not on the mutex -
i.e. it has already successfully taken the mutex. Changing the mutex
from mutex_lock to mutex_trylock won't help with deadlocks that happen
afterwards.

can't work
When add one disk to array, the md_reap_sync_thread is responsible
to activate the spare and set In_sync flag for the new member in
spare_active().
But if raid1 has one member disk A, and disk B is added to the array.
Then we offline A before all the datas are synchronized from A to B,
obviously B doesn't have the latest data as A, but B is still marked
with In_sync flag.
So let's not call spare_active under the condition, otherwise B is
still showed with 'U' state which is not correct.

When a disk is added to array, the following path is called in mdadm.
Manage_subdevs -> sysfs_freeze_array
-> Manage_add
-> sysfs_set_str(&info, NULL, "sync_action","idle")
Then from kernel side, Manage_add invokes the path (add_new_disk ->
validate_super = super_1_validate) to set In_sync flag.
Since In_sync means "device is in_sync with rest of array", and the new
added disk need to resync thread to help the synchronization of data.
And md_reap_sync_thread would call spare_active to set In_sync for the
new added disk finally. So don't set In_sync if array is in frozen.

When the 'last' device in a RAID1 or RAID10 reports an error,
we do not mark it as failed. This would serve little purpose
as there is no risk of losing data beyond that which is obviously
lost (as there is with RAID5), and there could be other sectors
on the device which are readable, and only readable from this device.
This in general this maximises access to data.
However the current implementation also stops an admin from removing
the last device by direct action. This is rarely useful, but in many
case is not harmful and can make automation easier by removing special
cases.
Also, if an attempt to write metadata fails the device must be marked
as faulty, else an infinite loop will result, attempting to update
the metadata on all non-faulty devices.
So add 'fail_last_dev' member to 'struct mddev', then we can bypasses
the 'last disk' checks for RAID1 and RAID10, and control the behavior
per array by change sysfs node.

When write bio return error, it would be added to conf->retry_list
and wait for raid1d thread to retry write and acknowledge badblocks.
In narrow_write_error(), the error bio will be split in the unit of
badblock shift (such as one sector) and raid1d thread issues them
one by one. Until all of the splited bio has finished, raid1d thread
can go on processing other things, which is time consuming.
But, there is a scene for error handling that is not necessary.
When the device has been set faulty, flush_bio_list() may end
bios in pending_bio_list with error status. Since these bios
has not been issued to the device actually, error handlding to
retry write and acknowledge badblocks make no sense.
Even without that scene, when the device is faulty, badblocks info
can not be written out to the device. Thus, we also no need to
handle the error IO.

However, this misses the chance to re-write the right data to P. This

Also, when re-read is skipped, we also missed the chance to reset
rdev->read_errors to 0. It can fail the disk when there are many read

SCSI maintains its own driver private data hooked off of each SCSI
request, and the pridate data won't be freed after scsi_queue_rq()
returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE or BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. An upper layer driver
(e.g. dm-rq) may need to retry these SCSI requests, before SCSI has
fully dispatched them, due to a lower level SCSI driver's resource
limitation identified in scsi_queue_rq(). Currently SCSI's per-request
private data is leaked when the upper layer driver (dm-rq) frees and
then retries these requests in response to BLK_STS_RESOURCE or
BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE returns from scsi_queue_rq().
This usecase is so specialized that it doesn't warrant training an
existing blk-mq interface (e.g. blk_mq_free_request) to allow SCSI to
account for freeing its driver private data -- doing so would add an
extra branch for handling a special case that all other consumers of
SCSI (and blk-mq) won't ever need to worry about.
So the most pragmatic way forward is to delegate freeing SCSI driver
private data to the upper layer driver (dm-rq). Do so by adding
new .cleanup_rq callback and calling a new blk_mq_cleanup_rq() method
from dm-rq. A following commit will implement the .cleanup_rq() hook
in scsi_mq_ops.

Pull more device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Fix zone state management race in DM zoned target by eliminating the
unnecessary DMZ_ACTIVE state.
- A couple fixes for issues the DM snapshot target's optional discard
support added during first week of the 5.3 merge.
- Increase default size of outstanding IO that is allowed for a each
dm-kcopyd client and introduce tunable to allow user adjust.
- Update DM core to use printk ratelimiting functions rather than
duplicate them and in doing so fix an issue where DMDEBUG_LIMIT()
rate limited KERN_DEBUG messages had excessive "callbacks suppressed"
messages.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"Primarily just the virtio_pmem driver:
- virtio_pmem
The new virtio_pmem facility introduces a paravirtualized
persistent memory device that allows a guest VM to use DAX
mechanisms to access a host-file with host-page-cache. It arranges
for MAP_SYNC to be disabled and instead triggers a host fsync()
when a 'write-cache flush' command is sent to the virtual disk
device.
- Miscellaneous small fixups"
* tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm:
virtio_pmem: fix sparse warning
xfs: disable map_sync for async flush
ext4: disable map_sync for async flush
dax: check synchronous mapping is supported
dm: enable synchronous dax

Currently, kcopyd has a sub-job size of 64KB and a maximum number of 8
sub-jobs. As a result, for any kcopyd job, we have a maximum of 512KB of
I/O in flight.
This upper limit to the amount of in-flight I/O under-utilizes fast
devices and results in decreased throughput, e.g., when writing to a
snapshotted thin LV with I/O size less than the pool's block size (so
COW is performed using kcopyd).
Increase kcopyd's default sub-job size to 512KB, so we have a maximum of
4MB of I/O in flight for each kcopyd job. This results in an up to 96%
improvement of bandwidth when writing to a snapshotted thin LV, with I/O
sizes less than the pool's block size.
Also, add dm_mod.kcopyd_subjob_size_kb module parameter to allow users
to fine tune the sub-job size of kcopyd. The default value of this
parameter is 512KB and the maximum allowed value is 1024KB.
We evaluate the performance impact of the change by running the
snap_breaking_throughput benchmark, from the device mapper test suite
[1].
The benchmark:
1. Creates a 1G thin LV
2. Provisions the thin LV
3. Takes a snapshot of the thin LV
4. Writes to the thin LV with:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/vg/thin_lv oflag=direct bs=<I/O size>
Running this benchmark with various thin pool block sizes and dd I/O
sizes (all combinations triggering the use of kcopyd) we get the
following results:
+-----------------+-------------+------------------+-----------------+
| Pool block size | dd I/O size | BW before (MB/s) | BW after (MB/s) |
+-----------------+-------------+------------------+-----------------+
| 1 MB | 256 KB | 242 | 280 |
| 1 MB | 512 KB | 238 | 295 |
