To grow size of super 1.0 raid array, it is necessary to check the device
max usable size.
Now it uses rdev->sectors for max usable size. If one disk is 500G and the
raid device only uses the 100GB of this disk. rdev->sectors can't tell the
real max usable size. The max usable size should be
dev_size-(superblock_size+bitmap_size+badblock_size).
Also, remove unnecessary sb_start update in super_1_rdev_size_change().

When array convert to clustered bitmap, the safe_mode_delay doesn't
clean and vice versa. the /sys/block/mdX/md/safe_mode_delay keep original
value after changing bitmap type. In safe_delay_store(), the code forbids
setting mddev->safemode_delay when array is clustered. So in cluster-md
env, the expected safemode_delay value should be 0.
Reproducible steps:
```
node1 # mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sd{b,c,d}
node1 # mdadm -C /dev/md0 -b internal -e 1.2 -n 2 -l mirror /dev/sdb /dev/sdc
node1 # cat /sys/block/md0/md/safe_mode_delay
0.204
node1 # mdadm -G /dev/md0 -b none
node1 # mdadm --grow /dev/md0 --bitmap=clustered
node1 # cat /sys/block/md0/md/safe_mode_delay
0.204 <== doesn't change, should ZERO for cluster-md
node1 # mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sd{b,c,d}
node1 # mdadm -C /dev/md0 -b clustered -e 1.2 -n 2 -l mirror /dev/sdb /dev/sdc

The following deadlock was captured. The first process is holding 'kernfs_mutex'
and hung by io. The io was staging in 'r1conf.pending_bio_list' of raid1 device,
this pending bio list would be flushed by second process 'md127_raid1', but
it was hung by 'kernfs_mutex'. Using sysfs_notify_dirent_safe() to replace
sysfs_notify() can fix it. There were other sysfs_notify() invoked from io
path, removed all of them.

Use generic io accounting functions to manage io stats. There was an
attempt to do this earlier in commit 18c0b223cf99 ("md: use generic io
stats accounting functions to simplify io stat accounting"), but it did
not include a call to generic_end_io_acct() and caused issues with
tracking in-flight IOs, so it was later removed in commit 74672d069b29
("md: fix md io stats accounting broken").
This patch attempts to fix this by using both disk_start_io_acct() and
disk_end_io_acct(). To make it possible, a struct md_io is allocated for
every new md bio, which includes the io start_time. A new mempool is
introduced for this purpose. We override bio->bi_end_io with our own
callback and call disk_start_io_acct() before passing the bio to
md_handle_request(). When it completes, we call disk_end_io_acct() and
the original bi_end_io callback.
This adds correct statistics about in-flight IOs and IO processing time,
interpreted e.g. in iostat as await, svctm, aqu-sz and %util.
It also fixes a situation where too many IOs where reported if a bio was
re-submitted to the mddev, because io accounting is now performed only
on newly arriving bios.

In mddev_create_serial_pool(), memalloc scope APIs memalloc_noio_save()
and memalloc_noio_restore() are used when allocating memory by calling
mempool_create_kmalloc_pool(). After adding the memalloc scope APIs in

around mempool_create_kmalloc_pool() any longer.

In raid5.c:resize_chunk(), scribble_alloc() is called with GFP_NOIO
flag, then it is sent into kvmalloc_array() inside scribble_alloc().
The problem is kvmalloc_array() eventually calls kvmalloc_node() which
does not accept non GFP_KERNEL compatible flag like GFP_NOIO, then
kmalloc_node() is called indeed to allocate physically continuous
pages. When system memory is under heavy pressure, and the requesting
size is large, there is high probability that allocating continueous
pages will fail.
But simply using GFP_KERNEL flag to call kvmalloc_array() is also
progblematic. In the code path where scribble_alloc() is called, the
raid array is suspended, if kvmalloc_node() triggers memory reclaim I/Os
and such I/Os go back to the suspend raid array, deadlock will happen.
What is desired here is to allocate non-physically (a.k.a virtually)
continuous pages and avoid memory reclaim I/Os. Michal Hocko suggests
to use the mmealloc sceope APIs to restrict memory reclaim I/O in
allocating context, specifically to call memalloc_noio_save() when
suspend the raid array and to call memalloc_noio_restore() when
resume the raid array.
This patch adds the memalloc scope APIs in mddev_suspend() and
mddev_resume(), to restrict memory reclaim I/Os during the raid array
is suspended. The benifit of adding the memalloc scope API in the
unified entry point mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() is, no matter which
md raid array type (personality), we are sure the deadlock by recursive
memory reclaim I/O won't happen on the suspending context.
Please notice that the memalloc scope APIs only take effect on the raid
array suspending context, if the memory allocation is from another new
created kthread after raid array suspended, the recursive memory reclaim
I/Os won't be restricted. The mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() entries are
used for the critical section where the raid metadata is modifying,
creating a kthread to allocate memory inside the critical section is
queer and very probably being buggy.

Since the purpose of call flush_workqueue in new_dev_store is to ensure
md_delayed_delete() has completed, so we should check rdev->del_work is
pending or not.
To suppress lockdep warning, we have to check mddev->del_work while
md_delayed_delete is attached to rdev->del_work, so it is not aligned
to the purpose of flush workquee. So a new workqueue is needed to avoid
the awkward situation, and introduce a new func flush_rdev_wq to flush
the new workqueue after check if there was pending work.
Also like new_dev_store, ADD_NEW_DISK ioctl has the same purpose to flush
workqueue while it holds bdev->bd_mutex, so make the same change applies
to the ioctl to avoid similar lock issue.
And md_delayed_delete actually wants to delete rdev, so rename the function
to rdev_delayed_delete.

Since works (rdev->del_work and mddev->del_work) are queued in md_misc_wq,
then lockdep_map lock is held if either of them are running, then both of
them try to hold kernfs lock by call kobject_del. Then if new_dev_store
or array_state_store are triggered by write to the related sysfs node, so
the write operation gets kernfs lock, but need the lockdep_map because all
of them would trigger flush_workqueue(md_misc_wq) finally, then the same
lockdep_map lock is needed.
To suppress the lockdep warnning, we should flush the workqueue in case the
related work is pending. And several works are attached to md_misc_wq, so
we need to check which work should be checked:
1. for __md_stop_writes, the purpose of call flush workqueue is ensure sync
thread is started if it was starting, so check mddev->del_work is pending
or not since md_start_sync is attached to mddev->del_work.
2. __md_stop flushes md_misc_wq to ensure event_work is done, check the
event_work is enough. Assume raid_{ctr,dtr} -> md_stop -> __md_stop doesn't
need the kernfs lock.
3. both new_dev_store (holds kernfs lock) and ADD_NEW_DISK ioctl (holds the
bdev->bd_mutex) call flush_workqueue to ensure md_delayed_delete has
completed, this case will be handled in next patch.
4. md_open flushes workqueue to ensure the previous md is disappeared, but
it holds bdev->bd_mutex then try to flush workqueue, so it is better to
check mddev->del_work as well to avoid potential lock issue, this will be
done in another patch.

Current make_request based drivers use either blk_alloc_queue_node or
blk_alloc_queue to allocate a queue, and then set up the make_request_fn
function pointer and a few parameters using the blk_queue_make_request
helper. Simplify this by passing the make_request pointer to
blk_alloc_queue, and while at it merge the _node variant into the main
helper by always passing a node_id, and remove the superfluous gfp_mask
parameter. A lower-level __blk_alloc_queue is kept for the blk-mq case.

Since raid1 had already used bucket based mechanism to reduce
the conflict between write IO and resync IO, it is possible to
speed up performance for io serialization with refer to the
same mechanism.
To align with the barrier bucket mechanism, we created arrays
(with the same number of BARRIER_BUCKETS_NR) for spinlock, rb
tree and waitqueue. Then we can reduce lock competition with
multiple spinlocks, boost search performance with multiple rb
trees and also reduce thundering herd problem with multiple
waitqueues.

Obviously, IO serialization could cause the degradation of
performance a lot. In order to reduce the degradation, so a
rb interval tree is added in raid1 to speed up the check of
collision.
So, a rb root is needed in md_rdev, then abstract all the
serialize related members to a new struct (serial_in_rdev),
embed it into md_rdev.
Of course, we need to free the struct if it is not needed
anymore, so rdev/rdevs_uninit_serial are added accordingly.
And they should be called when destroty memory pool or can't
alloc memory.
And we need to consider to call mddev_destroy_serial_pool
in case serialize_policy/write-behind is disabled, bitmap
is destroyed or in __md_stop_writes.

So far, IO serialization is used for two scenarios:
1. raid1 which enables write-behind mode, and there is rdev in the array
which is multi-queue device and flaged with writemostly.
2. IO serialization is enabled or disabled by change serialize_policy.
So introduce rdev_need_serial to check the first scenario. And for 1, IO
serialization is enabled automatically while 2 is controlled manually.
And it is possible that both scenarios are true, so for create serial pool,
rdev/rdevs_init_serial should be separate from check if the pool existed or
not. Then for destroy pool, we need to check if the pool is needed by other
rdevs due to the first scenario.

1. The related resources (spin_lock, list and waitqueue) are needed for
address raid1 reorder overlap issue too, in this case, rdev is set to
NULL for mddev_create/destroy_serial_pool which implies all rdevs need
to handle these resources.
And also add "is_suspend" to mddev_destroy_serial_pool since it will
be called under suspended situation, which also makes both create and
destroy pool have same arguments.
2. Introduce rdevs_init_serial which is called if raid1 io serialization
is enabled since all rdevs need to init related stuffs.
3. rdev_init_serial and clear_bit(CollisionCheck, &rdev->flags) should
be called between suspend and resume.
No need to export mddev_create_serial_pool since it is only called in
md-mod module.

We have a test case as follow:
mdadm -CR /dev/md1 -l 1 -n 4 /dev/sd[a-d] \
--assume-clean --bitmap=internal
mdadm -S /dev/md1
mdadm -A /dev/md1 /dev/sd[b-c] --run --force
mdadm --zero /dev/sda
mdadm /dev/md1 -a /dev/sda
echo offline > /sys/block/sdc/device/state
echo offline > /sys/block/sdb/device/state
sleep 5
mdadm -S /dev/md1
echo running > /sys/block/sdb/device/state
echo running > /sys/block/sdc/device/state
mdadm -A /dev/md1 /dev/sd[a-c] --run --force
When we readd /dev/sda to the array, it started to do recovery.
After offline the other two disks in md1, the recovery have
been interrupted and superblock update info cannot be written
to the offline disks. While the spare disk (/dev/sda) can continue
to update superblock info.
After stopping the array and assemble it, we found the array
run fail, with the follow kernel message:
[ 172.986064] md: kicking non-fresh sdb from array!
[ 173.004210] md: kicking non-fresh sdc from array!
[ 173.022383] md/raid1:md1: active with 0 out of 4 mirrors
[ 173.022406] md1: failed to create bitmap (-5)
[ 173.023466] md: md1 stopped.
Since both sdb and sdc have the value of 'sb->events' smaller than
that in sda, they have been kicked from the array. However, the only
remained disk sda is in 'spare' state before stop and it cannot be
added to conf->mirrors[] array. In the end, raid array assemble
and run fail.
In fact, we can use the older disk sdb or sdc to assemble the array.
That means we should not choose the 'spare' disk as the fresh disk in
analyze_sbs().
To fix the problem, we do not compare superblock events when it is
a spare disk, as same as validate_super.

If pers->make_request fails in md_flush_request(), the bio is lost. To
fix this, pass back a bool to indicate if the original make_request call
should continue to handle the I/O and instead of assuming the flush logic
will push it to completion.
Convert md_flush_request to return a bool and no longer calls the raid
driver's make_request function. If the return is true, then the md flush
logic has or will complete the bio and the md make_request call is done.
If false, then the md make_request function needs to keep processing like
it is a normal bio. Let the original call to md_handle_request handle any
need to retry sending the bio to the raid driver's make_request function
should it be needed.
Also mark md_flush_request and the make_request function pointer as
__must_check to issue warnings should these critical return values be
ignored.

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.

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 memb |
