2009-09-19Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissionsKay Sievers
This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero, random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no other userspace process applies the expected permissions. This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Commit b8313b6da7e2e7c7f47d93d8561969a3ff9ba0ea ("dm log: remove incorrect field from userspace table output") added a call to strstr() with a single-character "needle" string parameter. Unfortunately some versions of gcc replace such calls to strstr() by calls to strchr() behind our back.

2009-09-04dm snapshot: fix on disk chunk size validationMikulas Patocka
Fix some problems seen in the chunk size processing when activating a pre-existing snapshot. For a new snapshot, the chunk size can either be supplied by the creator or a default value can be used. For an existing snapshot, the chunk size in the snapshot header on disk should always be used. If someone attempts to load an existing snapshot and has the 'default chunk size' option set, the kernel uses its default value even when it is incorrect for the snapshot being loaded. This patch ensures the correct on-disk value is always used. Secondly, when the code does use the chunk size stored on the disk it is prudent to revalidate it, so the code can exit cleanly if it got corrupted as happened in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461506 .

2009-09-04dm snapshot: fix header corruption race on invalidationMikulas Patocka
If a persistent snapshot fills up, a race can corrupt the on-disk header which causes a crash on any future attempt to activate the snapshot (typically while booting). This patch fixes the race. When the snapshot overflows, __invalidate_snapshot is called, which calls snapshot store method drop_snapshot. It goes to persistent_drop_snapshot that calls write_header. write_header constructs the new header in the "area" location. Concurrently, an existing kcopyd job may finish, call copy_callback and commit_exception method, that goes to persistent_commit_exception. persistent_commit_exception doesn't do locking, relying on the fact that callbacks are single-threaded, but it can race with snapshot invalidation and overwrite the header that is just being written while the snapshot is being invalidated. The result of this race is a corrupted header being written that can lead to a crash on further reactivation (if chunk_size is zero in the corrupted header). The fix is to use separate memory areas for each.

2009-09-04dm log: userspace add luid to distinguish between concurrent log instancesJonathan Brassow
Device-mapper userspace logs (like the clustered log) are identified by a universally unique identifier (UUID). This identifier is used to associate requests from the kernel to a specific log in userspace. The UUID must be unique everywhere, since multiple machines may use this identifier when communicating about a particular log, as is the case for cluster logs. Sometimes, device-mapper/LVM may re-use a UUID. This is the case during pvmoves, when moving from one segment of an LV to another, or when resizing a mirror, etc. In these cases, a new log is created with the same UUID and loaded in the "inactive" slot. When a device-mapper "resume" is issued, the "live" table is deactivated and the new "inactive" table becomes "live". (The "inactive" table can also be removed via a device-mapper 'clear' command.) The above two issues were colliding. More than one log was being created with the same UUID, and there was no way to distinguish between them. So, sometimes the wrong log would be swapped out during the exchange. The solution is to create a locally unique identifier, 'luid', to go along with the UUID. This new identifier is used to determine exactly which log is being referenced by the kernel when the log exchange is made. The identifier is not universally safe, but it does not need to be, since create/destroy/suspend/resume operations are bound to a specific machine; and these are the operations that make up the exchange.

2009-09-04dm raid1: do not allow log_failure variable to unset after being setJonathan Brassow
This patch fixes a bug which was triggering a case where the primary leg could not be changed on failure even when the mirror was in-sync. The case involves the failure of the primary device along with the transient failure of the log device. The problem is that bios can be put on the 'failures' list (due to log failure) before 'fail_mirror' is called due to the primary device failure. Normally, this is fine, but if the log device failure is transient, a subsequent iteration of the work thread, 'do_mirror', will reset 'log_failure'. The 'do_failures' function then resets the 'in_sync' variable when processing bios on the failures list. The 'in_sync' variable is what is used to determine if the primary device can be switched in the event of a failure. Since this has been reset, the primary device is incorrectly assumed to be not switchable. The case has been seen in the cluster mirror context, where one machine realizes the log device is dead before the other machines. As the responsibilities of the server migrate from one node to another (because the mirror is being reconfigured due to the failure), the new server may think for a moment that the log device is fine - thus resetting the 'log_failure' variable. In any case, it is inappropiate for us to reset the 'log_failure' variable. The above bug simply illustrates that it can actually hurt us.

2009-09-04dm log: remove incorrect field from userspace table outputJonathan Brassow
The output of 'dmsetup table' includes an internal field that should not be there. This patch removes it. To make the fix simpler, we first reorder a constructor argument The 'device size' argument is generated internally. Currently it is placed as the last space-separated word of the constructor string. However, we need to use a version of the string without this word, so we move it to the beginning instead so it is trivial to skip past it. We keep a copy of the arguments passed to userspace for creating a log, just in case we need to resend them. These are the same arguments that are desired in the STATUSTYPE_TABLE request, except for one. When creating the userspace log, the userspace daemon must know the size of the mirror, so that is added to the arguments given in the constructor table. We were printing this extra argument out as well, which is a mistake. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

2009-09-04dm table: fix queue_limit checking device iteratorMikulas Patocka
The logic to check for valid device areas is inverted relative to proper use with iterate_devices. The iterate_devices method calls its callback for every underlying device in the target. If any callback returns non-zero, iterate_devices exits immediately. But the callback device_area_is_valid() returns 0 on error and 1 on success. The overall effect without is that an error is issued only if every device is invalid. This patch renames device_area_is_valid to device_area_is_invalid and inverts the logic so that one invalid device is sufficient to raise an error.

2009-09-04dm multipath: fix oops when request based io fails when no pathsKiyoshi Ueda
The patch posted at http://marc.info/?l=dm-devel&m=124539787228784&w=2 which was merged into cec47e3d4a861e1d942b3a580d0bbef2700d2bb2 ("dm: prepare for request based option") introduced a regression in request-based dm. If map_request() calls dm_kill_unmapped_request() to complete a cloned bio without dispatching it, clone->bio is still set when dm_end_request() is called and the BUG_ON(clone->bio) is incorrect. The patch fixes this bug by freeing bio in dm_end_request() if the clone has bio. I've redone my tests to cover all I/O paths and confirmed there's no other regression.

2009-08-13md: allow upper limit for resync/reshape to be set when array is read-onlyNeilBrown
Normally we only allow the upper limit for a reshape to be decreased when the array not performing a sync/recovery/reshape, otherwise there could be races. But if an array is part-way through a reshape when it is assembled the reshape is started immediately leaving no window to set an upper bound. If the array is started read-only, the reshape will be suspended until the array becomes writable, so that provides a window during which it is perfectly safe to reduce the upper limit of a reshape. So: allow the upper limit (sync_max) to be reduced even if the reshape thread is running, as long as the array is still read-only. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2009-08-13md/raid5: allow new reshape modes to be restarted in the middle.NeilBrown
md/raid5 doesn't allow a reshape to restart if it involves writing over the same part of disk that it would be reading from. This happens at the beginning of a reshape that increases the number of devices, at the end of a reshape that decreases the number of devices, and continuously for a reshape that does not change the number of devices. The current code is correct for the "increase number of devices" case as the critical section at the start is handled by userspace performing a backup. It does not work for reducing the number of devices, or the no-change case. For 'reducing', we need to invert the test. For no-change we cannot really be sure things will be safe, so simply require the array to be read-only, which is how the user-space code which carefully starts such arrays works.

2009-08-13md: never advance 'events' counter by more than 1.NeilBrown
When assembling arrays, md allows two devices to have different event counts as long as the difference is only '1'. This is to cope with a system failure between updating the metadata on two difference devices. However there are currently times when we update the event count by 2. This was done to keep the event count even when the array is clean and odd when it is dirty, which allows us to avoid writing common update to spare devices and so allow those spares to go to sleep. This is bad for the above reason. So change it to never increase by two. This means that the alignment between 'odd/even' and 'clean/dirty' might take a little longer to attain, but that is only a small cost. The spares will get a few more updates but that will still be spared (;-) most updates and can still go to sleep. Prior to this patch there was a small chance that after a crash an array would fail to assemble due to the overly large event count mismatch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

A recent commit: commit 449aad3e25358812c43afc60918c5ad3819488e7 introduced the possibility of an A-B/B-A deadlock between bd_mutex and reconfig_mutex. __blkdev_get holds bd_mutex while calling md_open which takes reconfig_mutex, do_md_run is always called with reconfig_mutex held, and it now takes bd_mutex in the call the revalidate_disk. This potential deadlock was not caught by lockdep due to the use of mutex_lock_interruptible_nexted which was introduced by commit d63a5a74dee87883fda6b7d170244acaac5b05e8 do avoid a warning of an impossible deadlock. It is quite possible to split reconfig_mutex in to two locks. One protects the array data structures while it is being reconfigured, the other ensures that an array is never even partially open while it is being deactivated. In particular, the second lock prevents an open from completing between the time when do_md_stop checks if there are any active opens, and the time when the array is either set read-only, or when ->pers is set to NULL. So we can be certain that no IO is in flight as the array is being destroyed. So create a new lock, open_mutex, just to ensure exclusion between 'open' and 'stop'. This avoids the deadlock and also avoids the lockdep warning mentioned in commit d63a5a74d Reported-by: "Mike Snitzer" <snitzer@gmail.com> Reported-by: "H.

2009-08-03md: Use revalidate_disk to effect changes in size of device.NeilBrown
As revalidate_disk calls check_disk_size_change, it will cause any capacity change of a gendisk to be propagated to the blockdev inode. So use that instead of mucking about with locks and i_size_write. Also add a call to revalidate_disk in do_md_run and a few other places where the gendisk capacity is changed.

2009-08-03md: allow raid5_quiesce to work properly when reshape is happening.NeilBrown
The ->quiesce method is not supposed to stop resync/recovery/reshape, just normal IO. But in raid5 we don't have a way to know which stripes are being used for normal IO and which for resync etc, so we need to wait for all stripes to be idle to be sure that all writes have completed. However reshape keeps at least some stripe busy for an extended period of time, so a call to raid5_quiesce can block for several seconds needlessly. So arrange for reshape etc to pause briefly while raid5_quiesce is trying to quiesce the array so that the active_stripes count can drop to zero. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-08-03md/raid5: set reshape_position correctly when reshape starts.NeilBrown

2009-08-03md: Handle growth of v1.x metadata correctly.NeilBrown
The v1.x metadata does not have a fixed size and can grow when devices are added. If it grows enough to require an extra sector of storage, we need to update the 'sb_size' to match. Without this, md can write out an incomplete superblock with a bad checksum, which will be rejected when trying to re-assemble the array.

2009-08-03md: avoid array overflow with bad v1.x metadataNeilBrown

2009-08-03md: when a level change reduces the number of devices, remove the excess.NeilBrown
When an array is changed from RAID6 to RAID5, fewer drives are needed. So any device that is made superfluous by the level conversion must be marked as not-active. For the RAID6->RAID5 conversion, this will be a drive which only has 'Q' blocks on it. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-08-03md: Push down data integrity code to personalities.Andre Noll
This patch replaces md_integrity_check() by two new public functions: md_integrity_register() and md_integrity_add_rdev() which are both personality-independent. md_integrity_register() is called from the ->run and ->hot_remove methods of all personalities that support data integrity. The function iterates over the component devices of the array and determines if all active devices are integrity capable and if their profiles match. If this is the case, the common profile is registered for the mddev via blk_integrity_register(). The second new function, md_integrity_add_rdev() is called from the ->hot_add_disk methods, i.e. whenever a new device is being added to a raid array. If the new device does not support data integrity, or has a profile different from the one already registered, data integrity for the mddev is disabled. For raid0 and linear, only the call to md_integrity_register() from the ->run method is necessary. Signed-off-by: Andre Noll <maan@systemlinux.org> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2009-07-23dm table: pass correct dev area size to device_area_is_validMike Snitzer
Incorrect device area lengths are being passed to device_area_is_valid(). The regression appeared in 2.6.31-rc1 through commit 754c5fc7ebb417b23601a6222a6005cc2e7f2913. With the dm-stripe target, the size of the target (ti->len) was used instead of the stripe_width (ti->len/#stripes).

2009-07-23dm: remove queue next_ordered workaround for barriersMike Snitzer
This patch removes DM's bio-based vs request-based conditional setting of next_ordered. For bio-based DM the next_ordered check is no longer a concern (as that check is now in the __make_request path). For request-based DM the default of QUEUE_ORDERED_NONE is now appropriate. bio-based DM was changed to work-around the previously misplaced next_ordered check with this commit: 99360b4c18f7675b50d283301d46d755affe75fd request-based DM does not yet support barriers but reacted to the above bio-based DM change with this commit: 5d67aa2366ccb8257d103d0b43df855605c3c086 The above changes are no longer needed given Neil Brown's recent fix to put the next_ordered check in the __make_request path: db64f680ba4b5c56c4be59f0698000df89ff0281 Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: Jun'ichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> Cc: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Acked-by: Kiyoshi Ueda <k-ueda@ct.jp.nec.com> Acked-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2009-07-23dm raid1: wake kmirrord when requeueing delayed bios after remote recoveryMikulas Patocka
The recent commit 7513c2a761d69d2a93f17146b3563527d3618ba0 (dm raid1: add is_remote_recovering hook for clusters) changed do_writes() to update the ms->writes list but forgot to wake up kmirrord to process it. The rule is that when anything is being added on ms->reads, ms->writes or ms->failures and the list was empty before we must call wakeup_mirrord (for immediate processing) or delayed_wake (for delayed processing). Otherwise the bios could sit on the list indefinitely. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

2009-07-01block: Create bip slabs with embedded integrity vectorsMartin K. Petersen
This patch restores stacking ability to the block layer integrity infrastructure by creating a set of dedicated bip slabs. Each bip slab has an embedded bio_vec array at the end. This cuts down on memory allocations and also simplifies the code compared to the original bvec version. Only the largest bip slab is backed by a mempool. The pool is contained in the bio_set so stacking drivers can ensure forward progress. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@carl.(none)>
2009-07-01md: use interruptible wait when duration is controlled by userspace.NeilBrown
User space can set various limits on an md array so that resync waits when it gets to a certain point, or so that I/O is blocked for a short while. When md is waiting against one of these limit, it should use an interruptible wait so as not to add to the load average, and so are not to trigger a warning if the wait goes on for too long.
