Corrent code use many kinds of "clever" way to determine operation
target's raid type, as:
raid_map != NULL
or
raid_map[MAX_NR] == RAID[56]_Q_STRIPE
To make code easy to maintenance, this patch put raid type into
bbio, and we can always get raid type from bbio with a "stupid"
way.

1: ref_count is simple than current RBIO_HOLD_BBIO_MAP_BIT flag
to keep btrfs_bio's memory in raid56 recovery implement.
2: free function for bbio will make code clean and flexible, plus
forced data type checking in compile.
Changelog v1->v2:
Rename following by David Sterba's suggestion:
put_btrfs_bio() -> btrfs_put_bio()
get_btrfs_bio() -> btrfs_get_bio()
bbio->ref_count -> bbio->refs

The commit c404e0dc (Btrfs: fix use-after-free in the finishing
procedure of the device replace) fixed a use-after-free problem
which happened when removing the source device at the end of device
replace, but at that time, btrfs didn't support device replace
on raid56, so we didn't fix the problem on the raid56 profile.
Currently, we implemented device replace for raid56, so we need
kick that problem out before we enable that function for raid56.
The fix method is very simple, we just increase the bio per-cpu
counter before we submit a raid56 io, and decrease the counter
when the raid56 io ends.

This function reused the code of parity scrub, and we just write
the right parity or corrected parity into the target device before
the parity scrub end.

The implementation is simple:
- In order to avoid changing the code logic of btrfs_map_bio and
RAID56, we add the stripes of the replace target devices at the
end of the stripe array in btrfs bio, and we sort those target
device stripes in the array. And we keep the number of the target
device stripes in the btrfs bio.
- Except write operation on RAID56, all the other operation don't
take the target device stripes into account.
- When we do write operation, we read the data from the common devices
and calculate the parity. Then write the dirty data and new parity
out, at this time, we will find the relative replace target stripes
and wirte the relative data into it.
Note: The function that copying old data on the source device to
the target device was implemented in the past, it is similar to
the other RAID type.

The implementation is:
- Read and check all the data with checksum in the same stripe.
All the data which has checksum is COW data, and we are sure
that it is not changed though we don't lock the stripe. because
the space of that data just can be reclaimed after the current
transction is committed, and then the fs can use it to store the
other data, but when doing scrub, we hold the current transaction,
that is that data can not be recovered, it is safe that read and check
it out of the stripe lock.
- Lock the stripe
- Read out all the data without checksum and parity
The data without checksum and the parity may be changed if we don't
lock the stripe, so we need read it in the stripe lock context.
- Check the parity
- Re-calculate the new parity and write back it if the old parity
is not right
- Unlock the stripe
If we can not read out the data or the data we read is corrupted,
we will try to repair it. If the repair fails. we will mark the
horizontal sub-stripe(pages on the same horizontal) as corrupted
sub-stripe, and we will skip the parity check and repair of that
horizontal sub-stripe.
And in order to skip the horizontal sub-stripe that has no data, we
introduce a bitmap. If there is some data on the horizontal sub-stripe,
we will the relative bit to 1, and when we check and repair the
parity, we will skip those horizontal sub-stripes that the relative
bits is 0.

We will introduce new operation type later, if we still use integer
variant as bool variant to record the operation type, we would add new
variant and increase the size of raid bio structure. It is not good,
by this patch, we define different number for different operation,
and we can just use a variant to record the operation type.

This patch implement the RAID5/6 common data repair function, the
implementation is similar to the scrub on the other RAID such as
RAID1, the differentia is that we don't read the data from the
mirror, we use the data repair function of RAID5/6.

Because we will reuse bbio and raid_map during the scrub later, it is
better that we don't change any variant of bbio and don't free it at
the end of IO request. So we introduced similar variants into the raid
bio, and don't access those bbio's variants any more.

This has been reported and discussed for a long time, and this hang occurs in
both 3.15 and 3.16.
Btrfs now migrates to use kernel workqueue, but it introduces this hang problem.
Btrfs has a kind of work queued as an ordered way, which means that its
ordered_func() must be processed in the way of FIFO, so it usually looks like --
normal_work_helper(arg)
work = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
work->func() <---- (we name it work X)
for ordered_work in wq->ordered_list
ordered_work->ordered_func()
ordered_work->ordered_free()
The hang is a rare case, first when we find free space, we get an uncached block
group, then we go to read its free space cache inode for free space information,
so it will
file a readahead request
btrfs_readpages()
for page that is not in page cache
__do_readpage()
submit_extent_page()
btrfs_submit_bio_hook()
btrfs_bio_wq_end_io()
submit_bio()
end_workqueue_bio() <--(ret by the 1st endio)
queue a work(named work Y) for the 2nd
also the real endio()
So the hang occurs when work Y's work_struct and work X's work_struct happens
to share the same address.
A bit more explanation,
A,B,C -- struct btrfs_work
arg -- struct work_struct
kthread:
worker_thread()
pick up a work_struct from @worklist
process_one_work(arg)
worker->current_work = arg; <-- arg is A->normal_work
worker->current_func(arg)
normal_work_helper(arg)
A = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
A->func()
A->ordered_func()
A->ordered_free() <-- A gets freed
B->ordered_func()
submit_compressed_extents()
find_free_extent()
load_free_space_inode()
... <-- (the above readhead stack)
end_workqueue_bio()
btrfs_queue_work(work C)
B->ordered_free()
As if work A has a high priority in wq->ordered_list and there are more ordered
works queued after it, such as B->ordered_func(), its memory could have been
freed before normal_work_helper() returns, which means that kernel workqueue
code worker_thread() still has worker->current_work pointer to be work
A->normal_work's, ie. arg's address.
Meanwhile, work C is allocated after work A is freed, work C->normal_work
and work A->normal_work are likely to share the same address(I confirmed this
with ftrace output, so I'm not just guessing, it's rare though).
When another kthread picks up work C->normal_work to process, and finds our
kthread is processing it(see find_worker_executing_work()), it'll think
work C as a collision and skip then, which ends up nobody processing work C.
So the situation is that our kthread is waiting forever on work C.
Besides, there're other cases that can lead to deadlock, but the real problem
is that all btrfs workqueue shares one work->func, -- normal_work_helper,
so this makes each workqueue to have its own helper function, but only a
wraper pf normal_work_helper.
With this patch, I no long hit the above hang.

Since the "_struct" suffix is mainly used for distinguish the differnt
btrfs_work between the original and the newly created one,
there is no need using the suffix since all btrfs_workers are changed
into btrfs_workqueue.
Also this patch fixed some codes whose code style is changed due to the
too long "_struct" suffix.

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames

The alloc_rbio() frees "raid_map" and "bbio" on error, so there is a
potential double free bug in raid56_parity_write(). The
raid56_parity_write() and raid56_parity_recover() functions should still
free "raid_map" and "bbio" on error if other errors occur though, so I
have added some more calls to kfree().

Btrfs has been pointer tagging bi_private and using bi_bdev
to store the stripe index and mirror number of failed IOs.
As bios bubble back up through the call chain, we use these
to decide if and how to retry our IOs. They are also used
to count IO failures on a per device basis.
Recently a bio tracepoint was added lead to crashes because
we were abusing bi_bdev.
This commit adds a btrfs bioset, and creates explicit fields
for the mirror number and stripe index. The plan is to
extend this structure for all of the fields currently in
struct btrfs_bio, which will mean one less kmalloc in
our IO path.

This adds a plugging callback to gather those smaller writes full stripe

The stripe cache allows us to avoid extra read/modify/write cycles
by caching the pages we read off the disk. Pages are cached when:
* They are read in during a read/modify/write cycle
* They are written during a read/modify/write cycle
* They are involved in a parity rebuild
Pages are not cached if we're doing a full stripe write. We're
assuming that a full stripe write won't be followed by another
partial stripe write any time soon.
This provides a substantial boost in performance for workloads that
synchronously modify adjacent offsets in the file, and for the parity
rebuild use case in general.
The size of the stripe cache isn't tunable (yet) and is set at 1024
entries.
Example on flash: dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/xxx bs=4K oflag=direct
Without the stripe cache -- 2.1MB/s
With the stripe cache 21MB/s

This builds on David Woodhouse's original Btrfs raid5/6 implementation.
The code has changed quite a bit, blame Chris Mason for any bugs.
Read/modify/write is done after the higher levels of the filesystem have
prepared a given bio. This means the higher layers are not responsible
for building full stripes, and they don't need to query for the topology
of the extents that may get allocated during delayed allocation runs.
It also means different files can easily share the same stripe.
But, it does expose us to incorrect parity if we crash or lose power
while doing a read/modify/write cycle. This will be addressed in a
later commit.
Scrub is unable to repair crc errors on raid5/6 chunks.
Discard does not work on raid5/6 (yet)
The stripe size is fixed at 64KiB per disk. This will be tunable
in a later commit.
