2008-05-14Remove blkdev warning triggered by using mdNeil Brown
As setting and clearing queue flags now requires that we hold a spinlock on the queue, and as blk_queue_stack_limits is called without that lock, get the lock inside blk_queue_stack_limits. For blk_queue_stack_limits to be able to find the right lock, each md personality needs to set q->queue_lock to point to the appropriate lock. Those personalities which didn't previously use a spin_lock, us q->__queue_lock. So always initialise that lock when allocated. With this in place, setting/clearing of the QUEUE_FLAG_PLUGGED bit will no longer cause warnings as it will be clear that the proper lock is held. Thanks to Dan Williams for review and fixing the silly bugs.

2008-05-13md: fix raid5 'repair' operationsDan Williams
commit bd2ab67030e9116f1e4aae1289220255412b37fd "md: close a livelock window in handle_parity_checks5" introduced a bug in handling 'repair' operations. After a repair operation completes we clear the state bits tracking this operation. However, they are cleared too early and this results in the code deciding to re-run the parity check operation. Since we have done the repair in memory the second check does not find a mismatch and thus does not do a writeback. Test results: $ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action $ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt 51072 $ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action $ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt 0 (also fix incorrect indentation) Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Tested-by: George Spelvin <linux@horizon.com> Acked-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-04-30md: fix up switching md arrays between read-only and read-writeNeilBrown
When setting an array to 'readonly' or to 'active' via sysfs, we must make the appropriate set_disk_ro call too. Also when switching to "read_auto" (which is like readonly, but blocks on the first write so that metadata can be marked 'dirty') we need to be more careful about what state we are changing from.

2008-04-30md: fix 'safemode' handling for external metadata.NeilBrown
'safemode' relates to marking an array as 'clean' if there has been no write traffic for a while (a couple of seconds), to reduce the chance of the array being found dirty on reboot. ->safemode is set to '1' when there have been no write for a while, and it gets set to '0' when the superblock is updates with the 'clean' flag set. This requires a few fixes for 'external' metadata: - When an array is set to 'clean' via sysfs, 'safemode' must be cleared. - when we write to an array that has 'safemode' set (there must have been some delay in updating the metadata), we need to clear safemode. - Don't try to update external metadata in md_check_recovery for safemode transitions - it won't work. Also, don't try to support "immediate safe mode" (safemode==2) for external metadata, it cannot really work (the safemode timeout can be set very low if this is really needed).

2008-04-28raid: remove leading TAB on printk messagesNick Andrew
MD drivers use one printk() call to print 2 log messages and the second line may be prefixed by a TAB character. It may also output a trailing space before newline. klogd (I think) turns the TAB character into the 2 characters '^I' when logging to a file. This looks ugly. Instead of a leading TAB to indicate continuation, prefix both output lines with 'raid:' or similar. Also remove any trailing space in the vicinity of the affected code and consistently end the sentences with a period.

2008-04-28md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performanceDan Williams
Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false.

2008-04-25dm: unplug queues in threadsMikulas Patocka
Remove an avoidable 3ms delay on some dm-raid1 and kcopyd I/O. It is specified that any submitted bio without BIO_RW_SYNC flag may plug the queue (i.e. block the requests from being dispatched to the physical device). The queue is unplugged when the caller calls blk_unplug() function. Usually, the sequence is that someone calls submit_bh to submit IO on a buffer. The IO plugs the queue and waits (to be possibly joined with other adjacent bios). Then, when the caller calls wait_on_buffer(), it unplugs the queue and submits the IOs to the disk. This was happenning: When doing O_SYNC writes, function fsync_buffers_list() submits a list of bios to dm_raid1, the bios are added to dm_raid1 write queue and kmirrord is woken up. fsync_buffers_list() calls wait_on_buffer(). That unplugs the queue, but there are no bios on the device queue as they are still in the dm_raid1 queue. wait_on_buffer() starts waiting until the IO is finished. kmirrord is scheduled, kmirrord takes bios and submits them to the devices. The submitted bio plugs the harddisk queue but there is no one to unplug it. (The process that called wait_on_buffer() is already sleeping.) So there is a 3ms timeout, after which the queues on the harddisks are unplugged and requests are processed. This 3ms timeout meant that in certain workloads (e.g. O_SYNC, 8kb writes), dm-raid1 is 10 times slower than md raid1. Every time we submit something asynchronously via dm_io, we must unplug the queue actually to send the request to the device. This patch adds an unplug call to kmirrord - while processing requests, it keeps the queue plugged (so that adjacent bios can be merged); when it finishes processing all the bios, it unplugs the queue to submit the bios. It also fixes kcopyd which has the same potential problem. All kcopyd requests are submitted with BIO_RW_SYNC.

Fix regression in dm-crypt introduced in commit 3a7f6c990ad04e6f576a159876c602d14d6f7fef ("dm crypt: use async crypto"). If write requests need to be split into pieces, the code must not process them in parallel because the crypto context cannot be shared. So there can be parallel crypto operations on one part of the write, but only one write bio can be processed at a time. This is not optimal and the workqueue code needs to be optimized for parallel processing, but for now it solves the problem without affecting the performance of synchronous crypto operation (most of current dm-crypt users). http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10242 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10207 Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com> Cc: "Rafael J.
