The intention when creating the "new_array" parameter and the possibility of having array names line "md_HOME" was to transition away from the old way of creating arrays and to eventually only use this new way. The "old" way of creating array is to create a device node in /dev and then open it. The act of opening creates the array. This is problematic because sometimes the device node can be opened when we don't want to create an array. This can easily happen when some rule triggered by udev looks at a device as it is being destroyed. The node in /dev continues to exist for a short period after an array is stopped, and opening it during this time recreates the array (as an inactive array). Unfortunately no clear plan for the transition was created. It is now time to fix that. This patch allows devices with numeric names, like "md999" to be created by writing to "new_array". This will only work if the minor number given is not already in use. This will allow mdadm to support the creation of arrays with numbers > 511 (currently not possible) by writing to new_array. mdadm can, at some point, use this approach to create *all* arrays, which will allow the transition to only using the new-way.

Allocate both struct ppl_io_unit and its header_page from a shared mempool to avoid a possible deadlock. Implement allocate and free functions for the mempool, remove the second pool for allocating header_page. The header_pages are now freed with their io_units, not when the ppl bio completes. Also, use GFP_NOWAIT instead of GFP_ATOMIC for allocating ppl_io_unit because we can handle failed allocations and there is no reason to utilize emergency reserves. Suggested-by:

raid0_make_request() should use a private bio_set rather than the shared fs_bio_set, which is only meant for filesystems to use. raid0_make_request() shouldn't loop around using the bio_set multiple times as that can deadlock. So use mddev->bio_set and pass the tail to generic_make_request() instead of looping on it. Signed-off-by:

linear_make_request() uses fs_bio_set, which is meant for filesystems to use, and loops, possible allocating from the same bio set multiple times. These behaviors can theoretically cause deadlocks, though as linear requests are hardly ever split, it is unlikely in practice. Change to use mddev->bio_set - otherwise unused for linear, and submit the tail of a split request to generic_make_request() for it to handle. Signed-off-by:

chunk_aligned_read() currently uses fs_bio_set - which is meant for filesystems to use - and loops if multiple splits are needed, which is not best practice. As this is only used for READ requests, not writes, it is unlikely to cause a problem. However it is best to be consistent in how we split bios, and to follow the pattern used in raid1/raid10. So create a private bioset, bio_split, and use it to perform a single split, submitting the remainder to generic_make_request() for later processing. Signed-off-by:

handle_read_error() duplicates a lot of the work that raid10_read_request() does, so it makes sense to just use that function. handle_read_error() relies on the same r10bio being re-used so that, in the case of a read-only array, setting IO_BLOCKED in r1bio->devs[].bio ensures read_balance() won't re-use that device. So when called from raid10_make_request() we clear that array, but not when called from handle_read_error(). Two parts of handle_read_error() that need to be preserved are the warning message it prints, so they are conditionally added to raid10_read_request(). If the failing rdev can be found, messages are printed. Otherwise they aren't. Not that as rdev_dec_pending() has already been called on the failing rdev, we need to use rcu_read_lock() to get a new reference from the conf. We only use this to get the name of the failing block device. With this change, we no longer need inc_pending(). Signed-off-by:

raid10 splits requests in two different ways for two different reasons. First, bio_split() is used to ensure the bio fits with a chunk. Second, multiple r10bio structures are allocated to represent the different sections that need to go to different devices, to avoid known bad blocks. This can be simplified to just use bio_split() once, and not to use multiple r10bios. We delay the split until we know a maximum bio size that can be handled with a single r10bio, and then split the bio and queue the remainder for later handling. As with raid1, we allocate a new bio_set to help with the splitting. It is not correct to use fs_bio_set in a device driver. Signed-off-by:

handle_read_error() duplicates a lot of the work that raid1_read_request() does, so it makes sense to just use that function. This doesn't quite work as handle_read_error() relies on the same r1bio being re-used so that, in the case of a read-only array, setting IO_BLOCKED in r1bio->bios[] ensures read_balance() won't re-use that device. So we need to allow a r1bio to be passed to raid1_read_request(), and to have that function mostly initialise the r1bio, but leave the bios[] array untouched. Two parts of handle_read_error() that need to be preserved are the warning message it prints, so they are conditionally added to raid1_read_request(). Note that this highlights a minor bug on alloc_r1bio(). It doesn't initalise the bios[] array, so it is possible that old content is there, which might cause read_balance() to ignore some devices with no good reason. With this change, we no longer need inc_pending(), or the sectors_handled arg to alloc_r1bio(). As handle_read_error() is called from raid1d() and allocates memory, there is tiny chance of a deadlock. All element of various pools could be queued waiting for raid1 to handle them, and there may be no extra memory free. Achieving guaranteed forward progress would probably require a second thread and another mempool. Instead of that complexity, add __GFP_HIGH to any allocations when read1_read_request() is called from raid1d. Signed-off-by:

raid1 currently splits requests in two different ways for two different reasons. First, bio_split() is used to ensure the bio fits within a resync accounting region. Second, multiple r1bios are allocated for each bio to handle the possiblity of known bad blocks on some devices. This can be simplified to just use bio_split() once, and not use multiple r1bios. We delay the split until we know a maximum bio size that can be handled with a single r1bio, and then split the bio and queue the remainder for later handling. This avoids all loops inside raid1.c request handling. Just a single read, or a single set of writes, is submitted to lower-level devices for each bio that comes from generic_make_request(). When the bio needs to be split, generic_make_request() will do the necessary looping and call md_make_request() multiple times. raid1_make_request() no longer queues request for raid1 to handle, so we can remove that branch from the 'if'. This patch also creates a new private bio_set (conf->bio_split) for splitting bios. Using fs_bio_set is wrong, as it is meant to be used by filesystems, not block devices. Using it inside md can lead to deadlocks under high memory pressure. Delete unused variable in raid1_write_request() (Shaohua) Signed-off-by:

Use resize_stripes() instead of raid5_reset_stripe_cache() to allocate or free sh->ppl_page at runtime for all stripes in the stripe cache. raid5_reset_stripe_cache() required suspending the mddev and could deadlock because of GFP_KERNEL allocations. Move the 'newsize' check to check_reshape() to allow reallocating the stripes with the same number of disks. Allocate sh->ppl_page in alloc_stripe() instead of grow_buffers(). Pass 'struct r5conf *conf' as a parameter to alloc_stripe() because it is needed to check whether to allocate ppl_page. Add free_stripe() and use it to free stripes rather than directly call kmem_cache_free(). Also free sh->ppl_page in free_stripe(). Set MD_HAS_PPL at the end of ppl_init_log() instead of explicitly setting it in advance and add another parameter to log_init() to allow calling ppl_init_log() without the bit set. Don't try to calculate partial parity or add a stripe to log if it does not have ppl_page set. Enabling ppl can now be performed without suspending the mddev, because the log won't be used until new stripes are allocated with ppl_page. Calling mddev_suspend/resume is still necessary when disabling ppl, because we want all stripes to finish before stopping the log, but resize_stripes() can be called after mddev_resume() when ppl is no longer active.

Use a single no_mem_stripes list instead of per member device lists for handling stripes that need retrying in case of failed io_unit allocation. Because io_units are allocated from a memory pool shared between all member disks, the no_mem_stripes list should be checked when an io_unit for any member is freed. This fixes a deadlock that could happen if there are stripes in more than one no_mem_stripes list. Signed-off-by:

fix_sync_read_error() modifies a bio on a newly faulty device by setting bi_end_io to end_sync_write. This ensure that put_buf() will still call rdev_dec_pending() as required, but makes sure that subsequent code in fix_sync_read_error() doesn't try to read from the device. Unfortunately this interacts badly with sync_request_write() which assumes that any bio with bi_end_io set to non-NULL other than end_sync_read is safe to write to. As the device is now faulty it doesn't make sense to write. As the bio was recently used for a read, it is "dirty" and not suitable for immediate submission. In particular, ->bi_next might be non-NULL, which will cause generic_make_request() to complain. Break this interaction by refusing to write to devices which are marked as Faulty.

When recoverying a single missing/failed device in a RAID6, those stripes where the Q block is on the missing device are handled a bit differently. In these cases it is easy to check that the P block is correct, so we do. This results in the P block be destroy. Consequently the P block needs to be read a second time in order to compute Q. This causes lots of seeks and hurts performance. It shouldn't be necessary to re-read P as it can be computed from the DATA. But we only compute blocks on missing devices, since c337869d ("md: do not compute parity unless it is on a failed drive"). So relax the change made in that commit to allow computing of the P block in a RAID6 which it is the only missing that block. This makes RAID6 recovery run much faster as the disk just "before" the recovering device is no longer seeking back-and-forth. Reported-by-tested-by:
