2007-07-17md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functionsNeilBrown1-68/+72
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.

2007-07-17md: check that internal bitmap does not overlap other dataNeilBrown1-2/+33
We current completely trust user-space to set up metadata describing an consistant array. In particlar, that the metadata, data, and bitmap do not overlap. But userspace can be buggy, and it is better to report an error than corrupt data. So put in some appropriate checks.

2007-02-09[PATCH] md: avoid possible BUG_ON in md bitmap handlingNeil Brown1-1/+21
md/bitmap tracks how many active write requests are pending on blocks associated with each bit in the bitmap, so that it knows when it can clear the bit (when count hits zero). The counter has 14 bits of space, so if there are ever more than 16383, we cannot cope. Currently the code just calles BUG_ON as "all" drivers have request queue limits much smaller than this. However is seems that some don't. Apparently some multipath configurations can allow more than 16383 concurrent write requests. So, in this unlikely situation, instead of calling BUG_ON we now wait for the count to drop down a bit. This requires a new wait_queue_head, some waiting code, and a wakeup call. Tested by limiting the counter to 20 instead of 16383 (writes go a lot slower in that case...).

2007-01-26[PATCH] md: avoid reading past the end of a bitmap fileNeilBrown1-4/+8
In most cases we check the size of the bitmap file before reading data from it. However when reading the superblock, we always read the first PAGE_SIZE bytes, which might not always be appropriate. So limit that read to the size of the file if appropriate. Also, we get the count of available bytes wrong in one place, so that too can read past the end of the file.

2006-10-03[PATCH] md: new sysfs interface for setting bits in the write-intent-bitmapPaul Clements1-0/+14
Add a new sysfs interface that allows the bitmap of an array to be dirtied. The interface is write-only, and is used as follows: echo "1000" > /sys/block/md2/md/bitmap (dirty the bit for chunk 1000 [offset 0] in the in-memory and on-disk bitmaps of array md2) echo "1000-2000" > /sys/block/md1/md/bitmap (dirty the bits for chunks 1000-2000 in md1's bitmap) This is useful, for example, in cluster environments where you may need to combine two disjoint bitmaps into one (following a server failure, after a secondary server has taken over the array). By combining the bitmaps on the two servers, a full resync can be avoided (This was discussed on the list back on March 18, 2005, "[PATCH 1/2] md bitmap bug fixes" thread).

2006-06-26[PATCH] md: Change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks-fixNeilBrown1-24/+23
Fix problems with new bmap based access to bitmap files. 1/ When not using a file based bitmap, attach a NULL list of buffers to each page so the common free_buffer routine can cope. 2/ Use submit_bh to read as well as write, rather than vfs_read. This makes read and write more symetric. 3/ sync the file before reading, to ensure that the page cache has no dirty pages that might get written out later.

2006-06-26[PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocksNeilBrown1-148/+135
If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

2005-11-09[PATCH] md: support BIO_RW_BARRIER for md/raid1NeilBrown1-3/+2
We can only accept BARRIER requests if all slaves handle barriers, and that can, of course, change with time.... So we keep track of whether the whole array seems safe for barriers, and also whether each individual rdev handles barriers. We initially assumes barriers are OK. When writing the superblock we try a barrier, and if that fails, we flag things for no-barriers. This will usually clear the flags fairly quickly. If writing the superblock finds that BIO_RW_BARRIER is -ENOTSUPP, we need to resubmit, so introduce function "md_super_wait" which waits for requests to finish, and retries ENOTSUPP requests without the barrier flag. When writing the real raid1, write requests which were BIO_RW_BARRIER but which aresn't supported need to be retried. So raid1d is enhanced to do this, and when any bio write completes (i.e. no retry needed) we remove it from the r1bio, so that devices needing retry are easy to find. We should hardly ever get -ENOTSUPP errors when writing data to the raid. It should only happen if: 1/ the device used to support BARRIER, but now doesn't. Few devices change like this, though raid1 can! or 2/ the array has no persistent superblock, so there was no opportunity to pre-test for barriers when writing the superblock.

2005-08-04[PATCH] md: always honour md bitmap being read from diskNeilBrown1-29/+23
The code currently will ignore the bitmap if the array seem to be in-sync. This is wrong if the array is degraded, and probably wrong anyway. If the bitmap says some chunks are not in in-sync, and the superblock says everything IS in sync, then something is clearly wrong, and it is safer to trust the bitmap.
