md-cluster: fix no recovery job when adding/re-adding a disk
The commit db5e653d ("md: delay choosing sync action to md_start_sync()") delays the start of the sync action. In a clustered environment, this will cause another node to first activate the spare disk and skip recovery. As a result, no nodes will perform recovery when a disk is added or re-added. Before db5e653d: ``` node1 node2 ---------------------------------------------------------------- md_check_recovery + md_update_sb | sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED + md_choose_sync_action process_metadata_update | remove_and_add_spares //node1 has not finished adding + call mddev->sync_work //the spare disk:do nothing md_start_sync starts md_do_sync md_do_sync + grabbed resync_lockres:DLM_LOCK_EX + do syncing job md_check_recovery sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED process_metadata_update //activate spare disk ... ... md_do_sync waiting to grab resync_lockres:EX ``` After db5e653d: (note: if 'cmd:idle' sets MD_RECOVERY_INTR after md_check_recovery starts md_start_sync, setting the INTR action will exacerbate the delay in node1 calling the md_do_sync function.) ``` node1 node2 ---------------------------------------------------------------- md_check_recovery + md_update_sb | sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED + calls mddev->sync_work process_metadata_update //node1 has not finished adding //the spare disk:do nothing md_start_sync + md_choose_sync_action | remove_and_add_spares + calls md_do_sync md_check_recovery md_update_sb sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED process_metadata_update //activate spare disk ... ... ... ... md_do_sync + grabbed resync_lockres:EX + raid1_sync_request skip sync under conf->fullsync:0 md_do_sync 1. waiting to grab resync_lockres:EX 2. when node1 could grab EX lock, node1 will skip resync under recovery_offset:MaxSector ``` How to trigger: ```(commands @node1) # to easily watch the recovery status echo 2000 > /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max ssh root@node2 "echo 2000 > /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max" mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -b clustered -n 2 /dev/sda /dev/sdb --assume-clean ssh root@node2 mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sda /dev/sdb mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --fail /dev/sda --remove /dev/sda mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sdc === "cat /proc/mdstat" on both node, there are no recovery action. === ``` How to fix: because md layer code logic is hard to restore for speeding up sync job on local node, we add new cluster msg to pending the another node to active disk.
