When two md arrays share some block device (e.g each uses different
partitions on the one device), a resync of one array will wait for
the resync on the other to finish.
This can be a long time and as it currently waits TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE,
the softlockup code notices and complains.
So use TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE instead and make sure to flush signals
before calling schedule.

When stopping an md array, or just switching to read-only, we
currently call invalidate_partition while holding the mddev lock.
The main reason for this is probably to ensure all dirty buffers
are flushed (invalidate_partition calls fsync_bdev).
However if any dirty buffers are found, it will almost certainly cause
a deadlock as starting writeout will require an update to the
superblock, and performing that updates requires taking the mddev
lock - which is already held.
This deadlock can be demonstrated by running "reboot -f -n" with
a root filesystem on md/raid, and some dirty buffers in memory.
All other calls to stop an array should already happen after a flush.
The normal sequence is to stop using the array (e.g. umount) which
will cause __blkdev_put to call sync_blockdev. Then open the
array and issue the STOP_ARRAY ioctl while the buffers are all still
clean.
So this invalidate_partition is normally a no-op, except for one case
where it will cause a deadlock.
So remove it.

Removing faulty devices from an array is a two stage process.
First the device is moved from being a part of the active array
to being similar to a spare device. Then it can be removed
by a request from user space.
The first step is currently not performed for read-only arrays,
so the second step can never succeed.
So allow readonly arrays to remove failed devices (which aren't
blocked).

We cannot currently change the size of a write-intent bitmap.
So if we change the size of an array which has such a bitmap, it
tries to set bits beyond the end of the bitmap.

A recent patch allowed do_md_stop to know whether it was being called
via an ioctl or not, and thus where to allow for an extra open file
descriptor when checking if it is in use.
This broke then switch to readonly performed by the shutdown notifier,
which needs to work even when the array is still (apparently) active
(as md doesn't get told when the filesystem becomes readonly).
So restore this feature by pretending that there can be lots of
file descriptors open, but we still want do_md_stop to switch to
readonly.

All modifications and most access to the mddev->disks list are made
under the reconfig_mutex lock. However there are three places where
the list is walked without any locking. If a reconfig happens at this
time, havoc (and oops) can ensue.
So use RCU to protect these accesses:
- wrap them in rcu_read_{,un}lock()
- use list_for_each_entry_rcu
- add to the list with list_add_rcu
- delete from the list with list_del_rcu
- delay the 'free' with call_rcu rather than schedule_work
Note that export_rdev did a list_del_init on this list. In almost all
cases the entry was not in the list anymore so it was a no-op and so
safe. It is no longer safe as after list_del_rcu we may not touch
the list_head.
An audit shows that export_rdev is called:
- after unbind_rdev_from_array, in which case the delete has
already been done,
- after bind_rdev_to_array fails, in which case the delete isn't needed.
- before the device has been put on a list at all (e.g. in
add_new_disk where reading the superblock fails).
- and in autorun devices after a failure when the device is on a
different list.
So remove the list_del_init call from export_rdev, and add it back
immediately before the called to export_rdev for that last case.
Note also that ->same_set is sometimes used for lists other than
mddev->list (e.g. candidates). In these cases rcu is not needed.

md_allow_write() marks the metadata dirty while holding mddev->lock and then
waits for the write to complete. For externally managed metadata this causes a
deadlock as userspace needs to take the lock to communicate that the metadata
update has completed.
Change md_allow_write() in the 'external' case to start the 'mark active'
operation and then return -EAGAIN. The expected side effects while waiting for
userspace to write 'active' to 'array_state' are holding off reshape (code
currently handles -ENOMEM), cause some 'stripe_cache_size' change requests to
fail, cause some GET_BITMAP_FILE ioctl requests to fall back to GFP_NOIO, and
cause updates to 'raid_disks' to fail. Except for 'stripe_cache_size' changes
these failures can be mitigated by coordinating with mdmon.
md_write_start() still prevents writes from occurring until the metadata
handler has had a chance to take action as it unconditionally waits for
MD_CHANGE_CLEAN to be cleared.

offset_store and rdev_size_store allow control of the region of a

They only allow these values to be set when an array is being assembled,
as changing them on an active array could be dangerous.
However when adding a spare device to an array, we might need to
set the offset and size before starting recovery. So allow
these values to be set also if "->raid_disk < 0" which indicates that
the device is still a spare.

Arrays personalities such as 'raid0' and 'linear' have no redundancy,
and so marking them as 'clean' or 'dirty' is not meaningful.
So always allow write requests without requiring a superblock update.

not possible to send a sync request we don't need a 'dirty' flag because

When we get any IO error during a recovery (rebuilding a spare), we abort
the recovery and restart it.
For RAID6 (and multi-drive RAID1) it may not be best to restart at the
beginning: when multiple failures can be tolerated, the recovery may be
able to continue and re-doing all that has already been done doesn't make
sense.
We already have the infrastructure to record where a recovery is up to
and restart from there, but it is not being used properly.
This is because:
- We sometimes abort with MD_RECOVERY_ERR rather than just MD_RECOVERY_INTR,
which causes the recovery not be be checkpointed.
- We remove spares and then re-added them which loses important state
information.
The distinction between MD_RECOVERY_ERR and MD_RECOVERY_INTR really isn't
needed. If there is an error, the relevant drive will be marked as
Faulty, and that is enough to ensure correct handling of the error. So we
first remove MD_RECOVERY_ERR, changing some of the uses of it to
MD_RECOVERY_INTR.
Then we cause the attempt to remove a non-faulty device from an array to
fail (unless recovery is impossible as the array is too degraded). Then
when remove_and_add_spares attempts to remove the devices on which
recovery can continue, it will fail, they will remain in place, and
recovery will continue on them as desired.
Issue: If we are halfway through rebuilding a spare and another drive
fails, and a new spare is immediately available, do we want to:
1/ complete the current rebuild, then go back and rebuild the new spare or
2/ restart the rebuild from the start and rebuild both devices in
parallel.
Both options can be argued for. The code currently takes option 2 as
a/ this requires least code change
b/ this results in a minimally-degraded array in minimal time.

'safemode' relates to marking an array as 'clean' if there has been no write

->safemode is set to '1' when there have been no write for a while, and it

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

If an md array is "auto-read-only", then this appears in /proc/mdstat as
/dev/md0: active(auto-read-only)
whereas if it is truely readonly, it appears as
/dev/md0: active (read-only)
The difference being a space.
One program known to parse this file expects the space and gets badly
confused. It will be fixed, but it would be best if what the kernel generates
is more consistent too.

When we access attributes of an rdev (component device on an md array) through
sysfs, we really need to lock the array against concurrent changes. We
currently do that when we change an attribute, but not when we read an
attribute. We need to lock when reading as well else rdev->mddev could become
NULL while we are accessing it.
So add appropriate locking (mddev_lock) to rdev_attr_show.
rdev_size_store requires some extra care as well as it needs to unlock the
mddev while scanning other mddevs for overlapping regions. We currently
assume that rdev->mddev will still be unchanged after the scan, but that
cannot be certain. So take a copy of rdev->mddev for use at the end of the
function.

A resync/reshape/recovery thread will refuse to progress when the array is
marked read-only. So whenever it mark it not read-only, it is important to
wake up thread resync thread. There is one place we didn't do this.
The problem manifests if the start_ro module parameters is set, and a raid5
array that is in the middle of a reshape (restripe) is started. The array
will initially be semi-read-only (meaning it acts like it is readonly until
the first write). So the reshape will not proceed.
On the first write, the array will become read-write, but the reshape will not
be started, and there is no event which will ever restart that thread.

Due to possible deadlock issues we need to use a schedule work to kobject_del
an 'rdev' object from a different thread.
A recent change means that kobject_add no longer gets a refernce, and
kobject_del doesn't put a reference. Consequently, we need to explicitly hold
a reference to ensure that the last reference isn't dropped before the
scheduled work get a chance to call kobject_del.
Also, rename delayed_delete to md_delayed_delete to that it is more obvious in
a stack trace which code is to blame.

Currently, a given device is "claimed" by a particular array so that it cannot
be used by other arrays.
This is not ideal for DDF and other metadata schemes which have their own
partitioning concept.
So for externally managed metadata, just claim the device for md in general,
require that "offset" and "size" are set properly for each device, and make
sure that if a device is included in different arrays then the active sections
do not overlap.
This involves adding another flag to the rdev which makes it awkward to set
"->flags = 0" to clear certain flags. So now clear flags explicitly by name
when we want to clear things.

If you try to start an array for which the number of raid disks is listed as
zero, md will currently try to read metadata off any devices that have been
given. This was done because the value of raid_disks is used to signal
whether array details have been provided by userspace (raid_disks > 0) or must
be read from the devices (raid_disks == 0).
However for an array without persistent metadata (or with externally managed
metadata) this is the wrong thing to do. So we add a test in do_md_run to
give an error if raid_disks is zero for non-persistent arrays.
This requires that mddev->persistent is set corrently at this point, which it
currently isn't for in-kernel autodetected arrays.
So set ->persistent for autodetect arrays, and remove the settign in
super_*_validate which is now redundant.
Also clear ->persistent when stopping an array so it is consistently zero when
starting an array.

When a device fails, we must not allow an further writes to the array until
the device failure has been recorded in array metadata. When metadata is
managed externally, this requires some synchronisation...
Allow/require userspace to explicitly remove failed devices from active
service in the array by writing 'none' to the 'slot' attribute. If this
reduces the number of failed devices to 0, the write block will automatically
be lowered.

- Add a state flag 'external' to indicate that the metadata is managed
externally (by user-space) so important changes need to be
left of user-space to handle.
Alternates are non-persistant ('none') where there is no stable metadata -
after the array is stopped there is no record of it's status - and
internal which can be version 0.90 or version 1.x
These are selected by writing to the 'metadata' attribute.
- move the updating of superblocks (sync_sbs) to after we have checked if
there are any superblocks or not.
- New array state 'write_pending'. This means that the metadata records
the array as 'clean', but a write has been requested, so the metadata has
to be updated to record a 'dirty' array before the write can continue.
This change is reported to md by writing 'active' to the array_state
attribute.
- tidy up marking of sb_dirty:
- don't set sb_dirty when resync finishes as md_check_recovery
calls md_update_sb when the sync thread finishes anyway.
- Don't set sb_dirty in multipath_run as the array might not be dirty.
- don't mark superblock dirty when switching to 'clean' if there
is no internal superblock (if external, userspace can choose to
update the superblock whenever it chooses to).

When an array is started read-only, MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED can be set but no

We could remove the test for MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED, but doing so would leave a
small gap after requesting a sync action, where 'sync_action' would still
report the old value.
So make sure that for a read-only array, 'sync_action' always returns 'idle'.

In current release kernels the md module (Software RAID) uses a static
array (dev_t[128]) to store partition/device info temporarily for
autostart.
I discovered this (and that the devices are added as disks/partitions are
discovered at boot) while I was debugging why only one of my MD arrays would
come up whole, while all the others were short a disk.
I eventually discovered that it was enumerating through all of 9 of my 11 hds
(2 had only 4 partitions apiece) while the other 9 have 15 partitions (I
wanted 64 per drive...). The last partition of the 8th drive in my 9 drive
raid 5 sets wasn't added, thus making the final md array short both a parity
and data disk, and it was started later, elsewhere.
This patch replaces that static array with a list.

Use the proper accessor function instead.
As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete,
the 'size' argument is now redundant. Remove it.
Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed
