94d6351e14 dm: split dm_suspend io_lock hold into two
Change io_locking to allow processing flush in separate thread.

Because we have DMF_BLOCK_IO already set, any possible
new ios are queued in dm_requests now.

In the case of interrupting previous wait there can be more
ios queued (we unlocked io_lock for a while) but this is safe.

6ed3003c19 md: fix an occasional deadlock in raid5
raid5's 'make_request' function calls generic_make_request on underlying
devices and if we run out of stripe heads, it could end up waiting for one of
those requests to complete.  This is bad as recursive calls to
generic_make_request go on a queue and are not even attempted until
make_request completes.

So: don't make any generic_make_request calls in raid5 make_request until all
waiting has been done.  We do this by simply setting STRIPE_HANDLE instead of
calling handle_stripe().

If we need more stripe_heads, raid5d will get called to process the pending
stripe_heads which will call generic_make_request from a

This change by itself causes a performance hit.  So add a change so that
raid5_activate_delayed is only called at unplug time, never in raid5.  This
seems to bring back the performance numbers.  Calling it in raid5d was
sometimes too soon...

  How about we queue it for 2.6.25-rc1 and then about when -rc2 comes out,
  we queue it for 2.6.24.y?

177a99b23e md: fix use-after-free bug when dropping an rdev from an md array
Due to possible deadlock issues we need to use a schedule work to kobject_del
an 'rdev' object from a different thread.

A recent change means that kobject_add no longer gets a refernce, and
kobject_del doesn't put a reference.  Consequently, we need to explicitly hold
a reference to ensure that the last reference isn't dropped before the
scheduled work get a chance to call kobject_del.

Also, rename delayed_delete to md_delayed_delete to that it is more obvious in
a stack trace which code is to blame.

c5d79adba7 md: allow devices to be shared between md arrays
Currently, a given device is "claimed" by a particular array so that it cannot
be used by other arrays.

This is not ideal for DDF and other metadata schemes which have their own
partitioning concept.

So for externally managed metadata, just claim the device for md in general,
require that "offset" and "size" are set properly for each device, and make
sure that if a device is included in different arrays then the active sections
do not overlap.

This involves adding another flag to the rdev which makes it awkward to set
"->flags = 0" to clear certain flags.  So now clear flags explicitly by name
when we want to clear things.

1ec4a9398d md: set and test the ->persistent flag for md devices more consistently
If you try to start an array for which the number of raid disks is listed as
zero, md will currently try to read metadata off any devices that have been
given.  This was done because the value of raid_disks is used to signal
whether array details have been provided by userspace (raid_disks > 0) or must
be read from the devices (raid_disks == 0).

However for an array without persistent metadata (or with externally managed
metadata) this is the wrong thing to do.  So we add a test in do_md_run to
give an error if raid_disks is zero for non-persistent arrays.

This requires that mddev->persistent is set corrently at this point, which it
currently isn't for in-kernel autodetected arrays.

So set ->persistent for autodetect arrays, and remove the settign in
super_*_validate which is now redundant.

Also clear ->persistent when stopping an array so it is consistently zero when
starting an array.

c620727779 md: allow a maximum extent to be set for resyncing
This allows userspace to control resync/reshape progress and synchronise it
with other activities, such as shared access in a SAN, or backing up critical
sections during a tricky reshape.

Writing a number of sectors (which must be a multiple of the chunk size if
such is meaningful) causes a resync to pause when it gets to that point.

c303da6d71 md: give userspace control over removing failed devices when external metdata in use
When a device fails, we must not allow an further writes to the array until
the device failure has been recorded in array metadata.  When metadata is
managed externally, this requires some synchronisation...

Allow/require userspace to explicitly remove failed devices from active
service in the array by writing 'none' to the 'slot' attribute.  If this
reduces the number of failed devices to 0, the write block will automatically
be lowered.

e691063a61 md: support 'external' metadata for md arrays
- Add a state flag 'external' to indicate that the metadata is managed
  externally (by user-space) so important changes need to be
  left of user-space to handle.
  Alternates are non-persistant ('none') where there is no stable metadata -
  after the  array is stopped there is no record of it's status - and
  internal which can be version 0.90 or version 1.x
  These are selected by writing to the 'metadata' attribute.

- move the updating of superblocks (sync_sbs) to after we have checked if
  there are any superblocks or not.

- New array state 'write_pending'.  This means that the metadata records
  the array as 'clean', but a write has been requested, so the metadata has
  to be updated to record a 'dirty' array before the write can continue.
  This change is reported to md by writing 'active' to the array_state
  attribute.

- tidy up marking of sb_dirty:
   - don't set sb_dirty when resync finishes as md_check_recovery
     calls md_update_sb when the sync thread finishes anyway.
   - Don't set sb_dirty in multipath_run as the array might not be dirty.
   - don't mark superblock dirty when switching to 'clean' if there
     is no internal superblock (if external, userspace can choose to
     update the superblock whenever it chooses to).

b47490c9bc md: Update md bitmap during resync.
Currently an md array with a write-intent bitmap does not updated that bitmap
to reflect successful partial resync.  Rather the entire bitmap is updated
when the resync completes.

This is because there is no guarentee that resync requests will complete in
order, and tracking each request individually is unnecessarily burdensome.

However there is value in regularly updating the bitmap, so add code to
periodically pause while all pending sync requests complete, then update the
bitmap.  Doing this only every few seconds (the same as the bitmap update
time) does not notciably affect resync performance.

91e1062592 dm crypt: use bio_add_page
Fix possible max_phys_segments violation in cloned dm-crypt bio.

In write operation dm-crypt needs to allocate new bio request
and run crypto operation on this clone. Cloned request has always
the same size, but number of physical segments can be increased
and violate max_phys_segments restriction.

This can lead to data corruption and serious hardware malfunction.
This was observed when using XFS over dm-crypt and at least
two HBA controller drivers (arcmsr, cciss) recently.

Fix it by using bio_add_page() call (which tests for other
restrictions too) instead of constructing own biovec.

All versions of dm-crypt are affected by this bug.

512875bd96 dm: table detect io beyond device
This patch fixes a panic on shrinking a DM device if there is
outstanding I/O to the part of the device that is being removed.
(Normally this doesn't happen - a filesystem would be resized first,
for example.)

The bug is that __clone_and_map() assumes dm_table_find_target()
always returns a valid pointer.  It may fail if a bio arrives from the
block layer but its target sector is no longer included in the DM
btree.

This patch appends an empty entry to table->targets[] which will
be returned by a lookup beyond the end of the device.

After calling dm_table_find_target(), __clone_and_map() and target_message()
check for this condition using
dm_target_is_valid().

Sample test script to trigger oops:

These blocks were prepared to be written out, but were never handled in
ops_run_biodrain(), so they remain locked forever.  The operations flags
are all clear which means handle_stripe() thinks nothing else needs to be
done.

This state suggests that the STRIPE_OP_PREXOR bit was sampled 'set' when it
should not have been.  This patch cleans up cases where the code looks at
sh->ops.pending when it should be looking at the consistent stack-based
snapshot of the operations flags.

Report from Joel:
	Resync done. Patch fix this bug.

This patch adds retries to the hp hardware handler, and utilizes the
MP_RETRY flag of dm-multipath.  For now in the hp handler, if we get a
pg_init completed with a check condition we just assume we can retry the
pg_init command.  We make this assumption because of incomplete data on
specific check condition code of the HP hardware, and because testing
has shown the HP path initialization command to be idempotent.
The number of times we retry is settable via the "pg_init_retries"
multipath map feature.

c9e45581ad dm mpath: add retry pg init
This patch allows a failed path group initialisation command to be retried.

It adds a generic MP_RETRY flag and a "pg_init_retries" feature to
device-mapper multipath which limits the number of retries.

1. A hw handler sends a path initialization command to the storage and
the command completes with an error code indicating the command
should be retried.

2. The hardware handler calls dm_pg_init_complete() with MP_RETRY
set in err_flags to ask the dm multipath core to retry.

3. If the retry limit has not been exceeded, pg_init() is retried.
Otherwise fail_path() is called.

If you are using the userspace multipath-tools or device-mapper-multipath
package, you can set pg_init_retries in the 'device' section of your
/etc/multipath.conf file. For example:

features                "2 pg_init_retries 7"

The number of PG retries attempted is reported in the 'dmsetup status' output.

ae9da83f6d dm: fix thaw_bdev
This patch fixes a bd_mount_sem counter corruption bug in device-mapper.

thaw_bdev() should be called only when freeze_bdev() was called for the
device.
Otherwise, thaw_bdev() will up bd_mount_sem and corrupt the semaphore counter.
struct block_device with the corrupted semaphore may remain in slab cache
and be reused later.

Attached patch will fix it by calling unlock_fs() instead.
unlock_fs() will determine whether it should call thaw_bdev()
by checking the device is frozen or not.

Easy reproducer is:
  #!/bin/sh
  while [ 1 ]; do
     dmsetup --notable create a
     dmsetup --nolockfs suspend a
     dmsetup remove a
  done

It's not easy to see the effect of corrupted semaphore.
So I have tested with putting printk below in bdev_alloc_inode():
        if (atomic_read(&ei->bdev.bd_mount_sem.count) != 1)
                printk(KERN_DEBUG "Incorrect semaphore count = %d (%p)\n",
                        atomic_read(&ei->bdev.bd_mount_sem.count),
                        &ei->bdev);

Without the patch, I saw something like:
 Incorrect semaphore count = 17 (f2ab91c0)

With the patch, the message didn't appear.

The bug was introduced in 2.6.16 with this bug fix:

commit d9dde59ba0
Date:   Fri Feb 24 13:04:24 2006 -0800

    [PATCH] dm: missing bdput/thaw_bdev at removal

    Need to unfreeze and release bdev otherwise the bdev inode with
    inconsistent state is reused later and cause problem.

and backported to 2.6.15.5.

It occurs only in free_dev(), which is called only when the dm device is
removed.  The buggy code is executed only if md->suspended_bdev is
non-NULL and that can happen only when the device was suspended without
noflush.

On 64-bit architectures there is no change at all; on 32-bit
we are increasing the size of dm-ioctl from 308 to 312 bytes.

Currently with 32-bit userspace / 64-bit kernel on x86_64
some ioctls (including rename, message) are incorrectly rejected
by the comparison against 'param + 1'.  This breaks userspace
lvrename and multipath 'fail_if_no_path' changes, for example.

(BTW Device-mapper uses its own versioning and ignores the ioctl
size bits.  Only the generic ioctl compat code on mixed arches
checks them, and that will continue to accept both sizes for now,
but we intend to list 308 as deprecated and eventually remove it.)

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in

The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce

2b12ab6d33 md: 'sync_action' in sysfs returns wrong value for readonly arrays
When an array is started read-only, MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED can be set but no
recovery will be running.  This causes 'sync_action' to report the wrong
value.

We could remove the test for MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED, but doing so would leave a
small gap after requesting a sync action, where 'sync_action' would still
report the old value.

So make sure that for a read-only array, 'sync_action' always returns 'idle'.

4d936ec1fd md: software Raid autodetect dev list not array
In current release kernels the md module (Software RAID) uses a static
array (dev_t[128]) to store partition/device info temporarily for
autostart.

I discovered this (and that the devices are added as disks/partitions are
discovered at boot) while I was debugging why only one of my MD arrays would
come up whole, while all the others were short a disk.

I eventually discovered that it was enumerating through all of 9 of my 11 hds
(2 had only 4 partitions apiece) while the other 9 have 15 partitions (I
wanted 64 per drive...).  The last partition of the 8th drive in my 9 drive
raid 5 sets wasn't added, thus making the final md array short both a parity
and data disk, and it was started later, elsewhere.

This patch replaces that static array with a list.

e4d84909dd raid5: fix 2 bugs in ops_complete_biofill
1/ ops_complete_biofill tried to avoid calling handle_stripe since all the
state necessary to return read completions is available.  However the
process of determining whether more read requests are pending requires
locking the stripe (to block add_stripe_bio from updating dev->toead).
ops_complete_biofill can run in tasklet context, so rather than upgrading
all the stripe locks from spin_lock to spin_lock_bh this patch just
unconditionally reschedules handle_stripe after completing the read
request.

2/ ops_complete_biofill needlessly qualified processing R5_Wantfill with
dev->toread.  The result being that the 'biofill' pending bit is cleared
before handling the pending read-completions on dev->read.  R5_Wantfill can
be unconditionally handled because the 'biofill' pending bit prevents new
R5_Wantfill requests from being seen by ops_run_biofill and
ops_complete_biofill.

4ad1366376 md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions
bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void.  Two callers try
to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed
by bitmap_file_kick.

write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked.  It always
causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more
conveniently be checked.

When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to
be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive
calls into bitmap_file_kick.

bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked.

So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

8314418629 Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

f0a50d3754 md: handle_stripe5 - add request/completion logic for async expand ops
When a stripe is being expanded bulk copying takes place to move the data
from the old stripe to the new.  Since raid5_run_ops only operates on one
stripe at a time these bulk copies are handled in-line under the stripe
lock.  In the dma offload case we poll for the completion of the operation.

After the data has been copied into the new stripe the parity needs to be
recalculated across the new disks.  We reuse the existing postxor
functionality to carry out this calculation.  By setting STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR
without setting STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN the completion path in handle stripe
can differentiate expand operations from normal write operations.

b5e98d65d3 md: handle_stripe5 - add request/completion logic for async read ops
When a read bio is attached to the stripe and the corresponding block is
marked R5_UPTODATE, then a read (biofill) operation is scheduled to copy
the data from the stripe cache to the bio buffer.  handle_stripe flags the

arrive while raid5_run_ops is running they will not be handled until
handle_stripe is scheduled to run again.

e89f89629b md: handle_stripe5 - add request/completion logic for async check ops
Check operations are scheduled when the array is being resynced or an
explicit 'check/repair' command was sent to the array.  Previously check
operations would destroy the parity block in the cache such that even if
parity turned out to be correct the parity block would be marked
!R5_UPTODATE at the completion of the check.  When the operation can be
carried out by a dma engine the assumption is that it can check parity as a
read-only operation.  If raid5_run_ops notices that the check was handled
by hardware it will preserve the R5_UPTODATE status of the parity disk.

When a check operation determines that the parity needs to be repaired we
reuse the existing compute block infrastructure to carry out the operation.
Repair operations imply an immediate write back of the data, so to
differentiate a repair from a normal compute operation the
STRIPE_OP_MOD_REPAIR_PD flag is added.

f38e12199a md: handle_stripe5 - add request/completion logic for async compute ops
handle_stripe will compute a block when a backing disk has failed, or when
it determines it can save a disk read by computing the block from all the
other up-to-date blocks.

Previously a block would be computed under the lock and subsequent logic in
handle_stripe could use the newly up-to-date block.  With the raid5_run_ops
implementation the compute operation is carried out a later time outside
the lock.  To preserve the old functionality we take advantage of the
dependency chain feature of async_tx to flag the block as R5_Wantcompute
and then let other parts of handle_stripe operate on the block as if it
were up-to-date.  raid5_run_ops guarantees that the block will be ready
before it is used in another operation.

However, this only works in cases where the compute and the dependent
operation are scheduled at the same time.  If a previous call to
handle_stripe sets the R5_Wantcompute flag there is no facility to pass the
async_tx dependency chain across successive calls to raid5_run_ops.  The
req_compute variable protects against this case.

* remove the req_compute BUG_ON

e33129d841 md: handle_stripe5 - add request/completion logic for async write ops
After handle_stripe5 decides whether it wants to perform a
read-modify-write, or a reconstruct write it calls
handle_write_operations5.  A read-modify-write operation will perform an
xor subtraction of the blocks marked with the R5_Wantprexor flag, copy the
new data into the stripe (biodrain) and perform a postxor operation across
all up-to-date blocks to generate the new parity.  A reconstruct write is run
when all blocks are already up-to-date in the cache so all that is needed
is a biodrain and postxor.

On the completion path STRIPE_OP_PREXOR will be set if the operation was a
read-modify-write.  The STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN flag is used in the completion
path to differentiate write-initiated postxor operations versus
expansion-initiated postxor operations.  Completion of a write triggers i/o
to the drives.

d84e0f10d3 md: common infrastructure for running operations with raid5_run_ops
All the handle_stripe operations that are to be transitioned to use
raid5_run_ops need a method to coherently gather work under the stripe-lock
and hand that work off to raid5_run_ops.  The 'get_stripe_work' routine
runs under the lock to read all the bits in sh->ops.pending that do not
have the corresponding bit set in sh->ops.ack.  This modified 'pending'
bitmap is then passed to raid5_run_ops for processing.

The transition from 'ack' to 'completion' does not need similar protection
as the existing release_stripe infrastructure will guarantee that
handle_stripe will run again after a completion bit is set, and
handle_stripe can tolerate a sh->ops.completed bit being set while the lock
is held.

A call to async_tx_issue_pending_all() is added to raid5d to kick the
offload engines once all pending stripe operations work has been submitted.
This enables batching of the submission and completion of operations.

91c0092484 md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock
When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following
attack plan:

1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock)
2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api

The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and
the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy
operations asynchronously, outside the lock.

To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed
to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests.  In this
new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work,
updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and
calling raid5_run_ops for processing.  The following flags outline the
requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops:

STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL
 - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request
STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK
 - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks
STRIPE_OP_PREXOR
 - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process
STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN
 - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request
STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR
 - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache
STRIPE_OP_CHECK
 - verify that the parity is correct
STRIPE_OP_IO
 - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside
   the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type

The flow is:
1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending
2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the
   operation to the async_tx api
3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set
   sh->ops.complete and release the stripe
4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit
   new operations that were previously blocked

Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per
major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this
routine.

Changelog:
* removed ops_complete_biodrain in favor of ops_complete_postxor and
  ops_complete_write.
* removed the raid5_run_ops workqueue
* call bi_end_io for reads in ops_complete_biofill, saves a call to
  handle_stripe
* explicitly handle the 2-disk raid5 case (xor becomes memcpy), Neil Brown
* fix race between async engines and bi_end_io call for reads, Neil Brown
* remove unnecessary spin_lock from ops_complete_biofill
* remove test_and_set/test_and_clear BUG_ONs, Neil Brown
* remove explicit interrupt handling for channel switching, this feature
  was absorbed (i.e. it is now implicit) by the async_tx api
* use return_io in ops_complete_biofill

a445685647 raid5: refactor handle_stripe5 and handle_stripe6 (v3)
handle_stripe5 and handle_stripe6 have very deep logic paths handling the
various states of a stripe_head.  By introducing the 'stripe_head_state'
and 'r6_state' objects, large portions of the logic can be moved to
sub-routines.

'struct stripe_head_state' consumes all of the automatic variables that previously
stood alone in handle_stripe5,6.  'struct r6_state' contains the handle_stripe6
specific variables like p_failed and q_failed.

One of the nice side effects of the 'stripe_head_state' change is that it
allows for further reductions in code duplication between raid5 and raid6.
The following new routines are shared between raid5 and raid6:

	handle_completed_write_requests
	handle_requests_to_failed_array
	handle_stripe_expansion

Changes:
* v2: fixed 'conf->raid_disk-1' for the raid6 'handle_stripe_expansion' path
* v3: removed the unused 'dirty' field from struct stripe_head_state
* v3: coalesced open coded bi_end_io routines into return_io()

9bc89cd82d async_tx: add the async_tx api
The async_tx api provides methods for describing a chain of asynchronous
bulk memory transfers/transforms with support for inter-transactional
dependencies.  It is implemented as a dmaengine client that smooths over
the details of different hardware offload engine implementations.  Code
that is written to the api can optimize for asynchronous operation and the
api will fit the chain of operations to the available offload resources. 
 
	I imagine that any piece of ADMA hardware would register with the
	'async_*' subsystem, and a call to async_X would be routed as
	appropriate, or be run in-line. - Neil Brown

async_tx exploits the capabilities of struct dma_async_tx_descriptor to
provide an api of the following general format:

struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *
async_<operation>(..., struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *depend_tx,
			dma_async_tx_callback cb_fn, void *cb_param)
{
	struct dma_chan *chan = async_tx_find_channel(depend_tx, <operation>);
	struct dma_device *device = chan ? chan->device : NULL;
	int int_en = cb_fn ? 1 : 0;
	struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *tx = device ?
		device->device_prep_dma_<operation>(chan, len, int_en) : NULL;

	if (tx) { /* run <operation> asynchronously */
		...
		tx->tx_set_dest(addr, tx, index);
		...
		tx->tx_set_src(addr, tx, index);
		...
		async_tx_submit(chan, tx, flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param);
	} else { /* run <operation> synchronously */
		...
		<operation>
		...
		async_tx_sync_epilog(flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param);
	}

	return tx;
}

async_tx_find_channel() returns a capable channel from its pool.  The
channel pool is organized as a per-cpu array of channel pointers.  The
async_tx_rebalance() routine is tasked with managing these arrays.  In the
uniprocessor case async_tx_rebalance() tries to spread responsibility
evenly over channels of similar capabilities.  For example if there are two
copy+xor channels, one will handle copy operations and the other will
handle xor.  In the SMP case async_tx_rebalance() attempts to spread the
operations evenly over the cpus, e.g. cpu0 gets copy channel0 and xor
channel0 while cpu1 gets copy channel 1 and xor channel 1.  When a
dependency is specified async_tx_find_channel defaults to keeping the
operation on the same channel.  A xor->copy->xor chain will stay on one
channel if it supports both operation types, otherwise the transaction will
transition between a copy and a xor resource.

Currently the raid5 implementation in the MD raid456 driver has been
converted to the async_tx api.  A driver for the offload engines on the
Intel Xscale series of I/O processors, iop-adma, is provided in a later
commit.  With the iop-adma driver and async_tx, raid456 is able to offload
copy, xor, and xor-zero-sum operations to hardware engines.
 
On iop342 tiobench showed higher throughput for sequential writes (20 - 30%
improvement) and sequential reads to a degraded array (40 - 55%
improvement).  For the other cases performance was roughly equal, +/- a few
percentage points.  On a x86-smp platform the performance of the async_tx
implementation (in synchronous mode) was also +/- a few percentage points
of the original implementation.  According to 'top' on iop342 CPU
utilization drops from ~50% to ~15% during a 'resync' while the speed
according to /proc/mdstat doubles from ~25 MB/s to ~50 MB/s.
 
The tiobench command line used for testing was: tiobench --size 2048
--block 4096 --block 131072 --dir /mnt/raid --numruns 5
* iop342 had 1GB of memory available

Details:
* if CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=n the asynchronous path is compiled away by making
  async_tx_find_channel a static inline routine that always returns NULL
* when a callback is specified for a given transaction an interrupt will
  fire at operation completion time and the callback will occur in a
  tasklet.  if the the channel does not support interrupts then a live
  polling wait will be performed
* the api is written as a dmaengine client that requests all available
  channels
* In support of dependencies the api implicitly schedules channel-switch
  interrupts.  The interrupt triggers the cleanup tasklet which causes
  pending operations to be scheduled on the next channel
* Xor engines treat an xor destination address differently than a software
  xor routine.  To the software routine the destination address is an implied
  source, whereas engines treat it as a write-only destination.  This patch
  modifies the xor_blocks routine to take a an explicit destination address
  to mirror the hardware.

fc1ff9588a dm raid1: handle log failure
When writing to a mirror, the log must be updated first.  Failure
to update the log could result in the log not properly reflecting
the state of the mirror if the machine should crash.

We change the return type of the rh_flush function to give us
the ability to check if a log write was successful.  If the
log write was unsuccessful, we fail the writes to avoid the
case where the log does not properly reflect the state of the
mirror.

A follow-up patch - which is dependent on the ability to
requeue I/O's to core device-mapper - will requeue the I/O's
for retry (allowing the mirror to be reconfigured.)

f44db678ed dm raid1: handle resync failures
Device-mapper mirroring currently takes a best effort approach to
recovery - failures during mirror synchronization are completely ignored.
This means that regions are marked 'in-sync' and 'clean' and removed
from the hash list.  Future reads and writes that query the region
will incorrectly interpret the region as in-sync.

This patch handles failures during the recovery process.  If a failure
occurs, the region is marked as 'not-in-sync' (aka RH_NOSYNC) and added
to a new list 'failed_recovered_regions'.

Regions on the 'failed_recovered_regions' list are not marked as 'clean'
upon removal from the list.  Furthermore, if the DM_RAID1_HANDLE_ERRORS
flag is set, the region is marked as 'not-in-sync'.  This action prevents
any future read-balancing from choosing an invalid device because of the
'not-in-sync' status.

If "handle_errors" is not specified when creating a mirror (leaving the
DM_RAID1_HANDLE_ERRORS flag unset), failures will be ignored exactly as they
would be without this patch.  This is to preserve backwards compatibility with
user-space tools, such as 'pvmove'.  However, since future read-balancing
policies will rely on the correct sync status of a region, a user must choose

07a83c47cf dm: disable barriers
This patch causes device-mapper to reject any barrier requests.  This is done
since most of the targets won't handle this correctly anyway.  So until the
situation improves it is better to reject these requests at the first place.
Since barrier requests won't get to the targets, the checks there can be
removed.

943317efdb dm raid1: clear region outside spinlock
A clear_region function is permitted to block (in practice, rare) but gets
called in rh_update_states() with a spinlock held.

The bits being marked and cleared by the above functions are used
to update the on-disk log, but are never read directly.  We can
perform these operations outside the spinlock since the
bits are only changed within one thread viz.
   - mark_region in rh_inc()
   - clear_region in rh_update_states().

So, we grab the clean_regions list items via list_splice() within the
spinlock and defer clear_region() until we iterate over the list for
deletion - similar to how the recovered_regions list is already handled.
We then move the flush() call down to ensure it encapsulates the changes
which are done by the later calls to clear_region().

0764147b11 dm snapshot: permit invalid activation
Allow invalid snapshots to be activated instead of failing.

This allows userspace to reinstate any given snapshot state - for
example after an unscheduled reboot - and clean up the invalid snapshot
at its leisure.

fcac03abd3 dm snapshot: fix invalidation deadlock
Process persistent exception store metadata IOs in a separate thread.

A snapshot may become invalid while inside generic_make_request().
A synchronous write is then needed to update the metadata while still
inside that function.  Since the introduction of
md-dm-reduce-stack-usage-with-stacked-block-devices.patch this has to
be performed by a separate thread to avoid deadlock.
