2009-12-14md: add MODULE_DESCRIPTION for all md related modules.NeilBrown

2009-12-14raid: improve MD/raid10 handling of correctable read errors.Robert Becker
We've noticed severe lasting performance degradation of our raid arrays when we have drives that yield large amounts of media errors. The raid10 module will queue each failed read for retry, and also will attempt call fix_read_error() to perform the read recovery. Read recovery is performed while the array is frozen, so repeated recovery attempts can degrade the performance of the array for extended periods of time. With this patch I propose adding a per md device max number of corrected read attempts. Each rdev will maintain a count of read correction attempts in the rdev->read_errors field (not used currently for raid10). When we enter fix_read_error() we'll check to see when the last read error occurred, and divide the read error count by 2 for every hour since the last read error. If at that point our read error count exceeds the read error threshold, we'll fail the raid device. In addition in this patch I add sysfs nodes (get/set) for the per md max_read_errors attribute, the rdev->read_errors attribute, and added some printk's to indicate when fix_read_error fails to repair an rdev. For testing I used debugfs->fail_make_request to inject IO errors to the rdev while doing IO to the raid array.

2009-12-14md/bitmap: update dirty flag when bitmap bits are explicitly set.NeilBrown
There is a sysfs file which allows bits in the write-intent bitmap to be explicit set - indicating that the block is thought to be 'dirty'. When this happens we should really set recovery_cp backwards to include the block to reflect this dirtiness. In particular, a 'resync' process will refuse to start if recovery_cp is beyond the end of the array, so this is needed to allow a resync to be triggered. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-12-14md: Support write-intent bitmaps with externally managed metadata.NeilBrown
In this case, the metadata needs to not be in the same sector as the bitmap. md will not read/write any bitmap metadata. Config must be done via sysfs and when a recovery makes the array non-degraded again, writing 'true' to 'bitmap/can_clear' will allow bits in the bitmap to be cleared again.

2009-12-14md/bitmap: move setting of daemon_lastrun out of bitmap_read_sbNeilBrown
Setting daemon_lastrun really has nothing to do with reading the bitmap superblock, it just happens to be needed at the same time. bitmap_read_sb is about to become options, so move that code out to after the call to bitmap_read_sb. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-12-14md: support updating bitmap parameters via sysfs.NeilBrown
A new attribute directory 'bitmap' in 'md' is created which contains files for configuring the bitmap. 'location' identifies where the bitmap is, either 'none', or 'file' or 'sector offset from metadata'. Writing 'location' can create or remove a bitmap. Adding a 'file' bitmap this way is not yet supported. 'chunksize' and 'time_base' must be set before 'location' can be set. 'chunksize' can be set before creating a bitmap, but is currently always over-ridden by the bitmap superblock. 'time_base' and 'backlog' can be updated at any time.

2009-12-14md: factor out parsing of fixed-point numbersNeilBrown

2009-12-14md: support bitmap offset appropriate for external-metadata arrays.NeilBrown
For md arrays were metadata is managed externally, the kernel does not know about a superblock so the superblock offset is 0. If we want to have a write-intent-bitmap near the end of the devices of such an array, we should support sector_t sized offset. We need offset be possibly negative for when the bitmap is before the metadata, so use loff_t instead. Also add sanity check that bitmap does not overlap with data. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-12-14md: remove needless setting of thread->timeout in raid10_quiesceNeilBrown
As bitmap_create and bitmap_destroy already set thread->timeout as appropriate, there is no need to do it in raid10_quiesce. There is a possible need to wake the thread after the timeout has been set low, but it is better to do that where the timeout is actually set low, in bitmap_create.

2009-12-14md/raid5: don't complete make_request on barrier until writes are scheduledNeilBrown
The post-barrier-flush is sent by md as soon as make_request on the barrier write completes. For raid5, the data might not be in the per-device queues yet. So for barrier requests, wait for any pre-reading to be done so that the request will be in the per-device queues. We use the 'preread_active' count to check that nothing is still in the preread phase, and delay the decrement of this count until after write requests have been submitted to the underlying devices. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-12-14md: support barrier requests on all personalities.NeilBrown
Previously barriers were only supported on RAID1. This is because other levels requires synchronisation across all devices and so needed a different approach. Here is that approach. When a barrier arrives, we send a zero-length barrier to every active device. When that completes - and if the original request was not empty - we submit the barrier request itself (with the barrier flag cleared) and then submit a fresh load of zero length barriers. The barrier request itself is asynchronous, but any subsequent request will block until the barrier completes. The reason for clearing the barrier flag is that a barrier request is allowed to fail. If we pass a non-empty barrier through a striping raid level it is conceivable that part of it could succeed and part could fail. That would be way too hard to deal with. So if the first run of zero length barriers succeed, we assume all is sufficiently well that we send the request and ignore errors in the second run of barriers. RAID5 needs extra care as write requests may not have been submitted to the underlying devices yet. So we flush the stripe cache before proceeding with the barrier. Note that the second set of zero-length barriers are submitted immediately after the original request is submitted. Thus when a personality finds mddev->barrier to be set during make_request, it should not return from make_request until the corresponding per-device request(s) have been queued. That will be done in later patches. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Andre Noll <maan@systemlinux.org>
2009-12-14md: don't reset curr_resync_completed after an interrupted resyncNeilBrown

2009-12-14md: adjust resync_min usefully when resync aborts.NeilBrown
When a 'check' or 'repair' finished we should clear resync_min so that a future check/repair will cover the whole array (by default). However if it is interrupted, we should update resync_min to where we got up to, so that when the check/repair continues it just does the remainder of the array.

2009-12-14md/bitmap: protect against bitmap removal while being updated.NeilBrown
A write intent bitmap can be removed from an array while the array is active. When this happens, all IO is suspended and flushed before the bitmap is removed. However it is possible that bitmap_daemon_work is still running to clear old bits from the bitmap. If it is, it can dereference the bitmap after it has been freed. So introduce a new mutex to protect bitmap_daemon_work and get it before destroying a bitmap. This is suitable for any current -stable kernel.

2009-12-11tty: split the lock up a bit furtherAlan Cox
The tty count sanity check may need the BKL, that isn't clear. However it is clear that the count use of the lock is internal and independant of the bigger use of the lock. Furthermore the file list locking is also separately locked already Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2009-12-11tty: Move the leader test in disassociateAlan Cox
There are two call points, both want to check that tty->signal->leader is set. Move the test into disassociate_ctty() as that will make locking changes easier in a bit Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

We know that the redirect field is handled via its own locking in all places Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
