* Add details about pending meta data operations to in_flight_summary.
* Report number of requests waiting for activity log transactions.
* timing details of peer_requests to in_flight_summary.
* FLUSH details
DRBD devides the incoming request stream into "epochs",
in which peers are allowed to re-order writes independendly.
These epochs are separated by P_BARRIER on the replication link.
Such barrier packets, depending on configuration, may cause
the receiving side to drain the lower level device request queues
and call blkdev_issue_flush().
This is known to be an other major source of latency in DRBD.
Track timing details of calls to blkdev_issue_flush(),
and add them to in_flight_summary.
* data socket stats
To be able to diagnose bottlenecks and root causes of "slow" IO on DRBD,
it is useful to see network buffer stats along with the timing details of

Try to close the race between open() and debugfs_remove_recursive()
from inside an object destructor.
Once open succeeds, the object should stay around.
Open should not succeed if the object has already reached its destructor.
This may be overkill, but to make that happen, we check for existence of
a parent directory, "stale-ness" of "this" dentry, and serialize
kref_get_unless_zero() on the outermost object relevant for this file
with d_delete() on this dentry (using the parent's i_mutex).

Background resynchronisation does some "side-stepping", or throttles
itself, if it detects application IO activity, and the current resync
rate estimate is above the configured "cmin-rate".
What was not detected: if there is no application IO,
because it blocks on activity log transactions.
Introduce a new atomic_t ap_actlog_cnt, tracking such blocked requests,
and count non-zero as application IO activity.
This counter is exposed at proc_details level 2 and above.
Also make sure to release the currently locked resync extent

A request that is to be shipped to the peer goes through a few stages:
- queued
- sent, waiting for ack
- ack received, waiting for "barrier ack", which is re-order epoch being
closed on the peer by acknowledging a "cache flush" equivalent
on the lower level device.
In the later two stages, depending on protocol, we may have already
completed this request to the upper layers, so it won't be found anymore
on device->pending_master_completion[] lists.
Track the oldest request yet to be sent (req_next), the oldest not yet
acknowledged (req_ack_pending) and the oldest "still waiting for
something from the peer" (req_not_net_done), doing short list walks on
the transfer log to find the next pending one whenever such a request
makes progress.
Now we have a fast way to look up the oldest requests,
don't do a transfer log walk every time.

In setups involving a DRBD-proxy and connections that experience a lot of
buffer-bloat it might be necessary to set ping-timeout to an
unusual high value. By default DRBD uses the same value to wait if a newly
established TCP-connection is stable. Since the DRBD-proxy is usually located
in the same data center such a long wait time may hinder DRBD's connect process.
In such setups socket-check-timeout should be set to
at least to the round trip time between DRBD and DRBD-proxy. I.e. in most
cases to 1.

'drbd: Keep the listening socket open while trying to connect to the peer'

Checksum based resync trades CPU cycles for network bandwidth,
in situations where we expect much of the to-be-resynced blocks
to be actually identical on both sides already.
In a "network hickup" scenario, it won't help:
all to-be-resynced blocks will typically be different.
The use case is for the resync of *potentially* different blocks
after crash recovery -- the crash recovery had marked larger areas
(those covered by the activity log) as need-to-be-resynced,
just in case. Most of those blocks will be identical.
This option makes it possible to configure checksum based resync,
but only actually use it for the first resync after primary crash.

During handshake, we compare backend sizes, and user set limits,
and agree on what device size we are going to expose.
We remember that last-agreed-size in our meta data.
But if we come up diskless, we have to accept what the peer
presents us with. We used to accept the peers maximum potential
capacity (backend size), which is wrong, and could lead to IO errors
due to access beyond end of device.
Instead, we need to accept the peer's current size.
Unless that is communicated as 0, in which case we

We intentionally do not serialize /proc/drbd access with

Because of that, cat /proc/drbd may race with resync just being
finished, still see the sync state, and find information about

of blocks within this resync has just been reset to 0

This fixes one recent regresion,
and one long existing bug.
The bug:
drbd_try_clear_on_disk_bm() assumed that all "count" bits have to be
accounted in the resync extent corresponding to the start sector.
Since we allow application requests to cross our "extent" boundaries,
this assumption is no longer true, resulting in possible misaccounting,
scary messages
("BAD! sector=12345s enr=6 rs_left=-7 rs_failed=0 count=58 cstate=..."),
and potentially, if the last bit to be cleared during resync would
reside in previously misaccounted resync extent, the resync would never
be recognized as finished, but would be "stalled" forever, even though
all blocks are in sync again and all bits have been cleared...
The regression was introduced by
drbd: get rid of atomic update on disk bitmap works
For an "empty" resync (rs_total == 0), we must not "finish" the
resync on the SyncSource before the SyncTarget knows all relevant
information (sync uuid). We need to wait for the full round-trip,
the SyncTarget will then explicitly notify us.
Also for normal, non-empty resyncs (rs_total > 0), the resync-finished
condition needs to be tested before the schedule() in wait_for_work, or
it is likely to be missed.
