commit 47a7b0d8888c04c9746812820b6e60553cc77bbc upstream.

The md-cluster is compiled as module by default,
if it is compiled by built-in way, then we can't
make md-cluster works.

commit 9c573de3283af007ea11c17bde1e4568d9417328 upstream.

blk_queue_split marks bio unmergeable, which makes sense for normal bio.
But if dispatching the bio to underlayer disk, the blk_queue_split
checks are invalid, hence it's possible the bio becomes mergeable.

In the reported bug, this bug causes trim against raid0 performance slash

<content type='text'>
commit 1501efadc524a0c99494b576923091589a52d2a4 upstream.

It is not safe for an integrity profile to be changed while i/o is
in-flight in the queue.  Prevent adding new disks or otherwise online
spares to an array if the device has an incompatible integrity profile.

The original change to the blk_integrity_unregister implementation in
md, commmit c7bfced9a671 "md: suspend i/o during runtime
blk_integrity_unregister" introduced an immediate hang regression.

This policy of disallowing changes the integrity profile once one has
been established is shared with DM.

Here is an abbreviated log from a test run that:
1/ Creates a degraded raid1 with an integrity-enabled device (pmem0s) [   59.076127]
2/ Tries to add an integrity-disabled device (pmem1m) [   90.489209]
3/ Retries with an integrity-enabled device (pmem1s) [  205.671277]

[   90.489209] md0: incompatible integrity profile for pmem1m

[  205.671277] md: super_written gets error=-5
[  205.677386] md/raid1:md0: Disk failure on pmem1m, disabling device.

<title>md: remove check for MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED in action_store.</title>

md currently doesn't allow a 'sync_action' such as 'reshape' to be set
while MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED is set.

This s a problem, particularly since commit 738a273806ee as that can
cause -&gt;check_shape to call mddev_resume() which sets
MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED.  So by the time we come to start 'reshape' it is
very likely that MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED is still set.

Testing for this flag is not really needed and is in any case very
racy as it can be set at any moment - asynchronously.  Any race
between setting a sync_action and setting MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED must
already be handled properly in some locked code, probably
md_check_recovery(), so remove the test here.

The test on MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING is also racy in the 'reshape' case
so we should test it again after getting mddev_lock().

As this fixes a race and a regression which can cause 'reshape' to
fail, it is suitable for -stable kernels since 4.1

The patch c7bfced9a6716ff66c9d61f934bb60af08d4688c committed to 4.4-rc
causes crash in LVM test shell/lvchange-raid.sh. The kernel crashes with
this BUG, the reason is that we attempt to suspend a device that is
already suspended. See also
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1283491

This patch fixes the bug by changing functions mddev_suspend and
mddev_resume to always nest.
The number of nested calls to mddev_nested_suspend is kept in the
variable mddev-&gt;suspended.
[neilb: made mddev_suspend() always nest instead of introduce mddev_nested_suspend]

The patch c7bfced9a6716ff66c9d61f934bb60af08d4688c committed to 4.4-rc
causes crash in LVM test shell/lvchange-raid.sh. The kernel crashes with
this BUG, the reason is that we attempt to suspend a device that is
already suspended. See also
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1283491

This patch fixes the bug by changing functions mddev_suspend and
mddev_resume to always nest.
The number of nested calls to mddev_nested_suspend is kept in the
variable mddev-&gt;suspended.
[neilb: made mddev_suspend() always nest instead of introduce mddev_nested_suspend]

Neil pointed out setting journal disk role to raid_disks will confuse
reshape if we support reshape eventually. Switching the role to 0 (we
should be fine as long as the value &gt;=0) and skip sysfs file creation to
avoid error.

No functional changes in this patch, but it prepares us for returning
a more useful cookie related to the IO that was queued up.

Pull md updates from Neil Brown:
 "Two major components to this update.

   1) The clustered-raid1 support from SUSE is nearly complete.  There
      are a few outstanding issues being worked on.  Maybe half a dozen
      patches will bring this to a usable state.

   2) The first stage of journalled-raid5 support from Facebook makes an
      appearance.  With a journal device configured (typically NVRAM or
      SSD), the "RAID5 write hole" should be closed - a crash during
      degraded operations cannot result in data corruption.

      The next stage will be to use the journal as a write-behind cache
      so that latency can be reduced and in some cases throughput
      increased by performing more full-stripe writes.

* tag 'md/4.4' of git://neil.brown.name/md: (66 commits)
  MD: when RAID journal is missing/faulty, block RESTART_ARRAY_RW
  MD: set journal disk -&gt;raid_disk
  MD: kick out journal disk if it's not fresh
  raid5-cache: start raid5 readonly if journal is missing
  MD: add new bit to indicate raid array with journal
  raid5-cache: IO error handling
  raid5: journal disk can't be removed
