The MSDOS/MBR partition table includes a 32-bit unique ID, often referred to as the NT disk signature. When combined with a partition number within the table, this can form a unique ID similar in concept to EFI/GPT's partition UUID. Constructing and recording this value in struct partition_meta_info allows MSDOS partitions to be referred to on the kernel command-line using the following syntax: root=PARTUUID=0002dd75-01 Signed-off-by:

Reduce the minimum length for a root=PARTUUID= parameter to be considered valid from 36 to 1. EFI/GPT partition UUIDs are always exactly 36 characters long, hence the previous limit. However, the next patch will support DOS/MBR UUIDs too, which have a different, shorter, format. Instead of validating any particular length, just ensure that at least some non-empty value was given by the user. Also, consider a missing UUID value to be a parsing error, in the same vein as if /PARTNROFF exists and can't be parsed. As such, make both error cases print a message and disable rootwait. Convert to pr_err while we're at it. Signed-off-by:

This will allow other types of UUID to be stored here, aside from true UUIDs. This also simplifies code that uses this field, since it's usually constructed from a, used as a, or compared to other, strings. Note: A simplistic approach here would be to set uuid_str[36]=0 whenever a /PARTNROFF option was found to be present. However, this modifies the input string, and causes subsequent calls to devt_from_partuuid() not to see the /PARTNROFF option, which causes different results. In order to avoid misleading future maintainers, this parameter is marked const. Signed-off-by:

The 8.3.12 commit drbd: Bugfix for the connection behavior fixes a "wasted established connection", if a former connection attempt failed during its early stages. However it opened a window for a regression, if a connection attempt fails during its last stages. The result was a terminated receiver thread, that left behind the supposedly transient "C_UNCONNECTED" state. Any later requests to change the connection state fail, as they wait for the connection state to "stabilize". Fix: short circuit and keep retrying to restablish a new connection, if we don't reach C_WF_REPORT_PARAMS. Signed-off-by:

If the disk has failed already, there is no point trying to change the bitmap. drbd_set_out_of_sync() already had this safeguard, time to add it to drbd_set_in_sync() as well. This also prevents some warning messages, like FIXME asender in bm_change_bits_to, bitmap locked for 'detach' by worker if our disk fails during resync, while there are some resync acks queued up.

recent commit drbd: always write bitmap on detach introduced a bitmap writeout during detach, which obviously needs some meta data device to write to. Unfortunately, that same error path may be taken if we fail to attach, e.g. due to UUID mismatch, after we changed state to D_ATTACHING, but before the lower level device pointer is even assigned. We need to test for presence of mdev->ldev. Signed-off-by: -

If we detach due to local read-error (which sets a bit in the bitmap), stay Primary, and then re-attach (which re-reads the bitmap from disk), we potentially lost the "out-of-sync" (or, "bad block") information in the bitmap. Always (try to) write out the changed bitmap pages before going diskless. That way, we don't lose the bit for the bad block, the next resync will fetch it from the peer, and rewrite it locally, which may result in block reallocation in some lower layer (or the hardware), and thereby "heal" the bad blocks. If the bitmap writeout errors out as well, we will (again: try to) mark the "we need a full sync" bit in our super block, if it was a READ error; writes are covered by the activity log already. If that superblock does not make it to disk either, we are sorry. Maybe we just lost an entire disk or controller (or iSCSI connection), and there actually are no bad blocks at all, so we don't need to re-fetch from the peer, there is no "auto-healing" necessary.

The intention of force-detach is to be able to deal with a completely unresponsive lower level IO stack, which does not even deliver error completions anymore, but no completion at all. In all other cases, we must still wait for the meta data IO completion. Signed-off-by:

This has not yet been observed, but conceivably, when using GFP_KERNEL allocations from drbd_md_sync(), drbd_flush_after_epoch() or receive_SyncParam(), we could trigger additional IO to our own device, or an other device in a criss-cross setup, and end up in a local deadlock, or potentially a distributed deadlock in a criss-cross setup involving the peer blocked in a similar way waiting for us to make progress.

The former comment arguing that GFP_KERNEL was good enough was wrong: it did not take resize into account at all, and assumed the only path leading here was the normal attach on a still secondary device, so no deadlock would be possible. Both resize on a Primary, or attach on a diskless Primary, could potentially deadlock. drbd_bm_resize() is called while IO to the respective device is suspended, so we must use GFP_NOIO to avoid potential deadlock.

"aborting" requests, or force-detaching the disk, is intended for completely blocked/hung local backing devices which do no longer complete requests at all, not even do error completions. In this situation, usually a hard-reset and failover is the only way out. By "aborting", basically faking a local error-completion, we allow for a more graceful swichover by cleanly migrating services. Still the affected node has to be rebooted "soon". By completing these requests, we allow the upper layers to re-use the associated data pages. If later the local backing device "recovers", and now DMAs some data from disk into the original request pages, in the best case it will just put random data into unused pages; but typically it will corrupt meanwhile completely unrelated data, causing all sorts of damage. Which means delayed successful completion, especially for READ requests, is a reason to panic(). We assume that a delayed *error* completion is OK, though we still will complain noisily about it.

is_valid_transition() might return SS_NOTHING_TO_DO. The condition function _req_st_cond() returned SS_NOTHING_TO_DO, which caused the wait_event to abort too early. Therefore drbd_req_state() did not consume the next CL_ST_CHG_SUCCESS or SS_CW_FAILED_BY_PEER causing serve disruption of the state machine logic... Detaching from a single volue was one way to trigger this bug. Signed-off-by:

We use the RQ_POSTPONED flag to mark a request for several reasons. It may be a conflicting request in a dual-primary setup, where conflict detection and resolution on the peer decided that this request needs to be re-submitted, it needs to re-enter drbd_make_request() to fix the data divergence caused by these conflicting, partially overlapping, quasi-simultaneous requests. In this case we need to mark the corresponding area as out-of-sync, before we call drbd_al_complete_io(). We also use the RQ_POSTPONED flag to just "push back" a request, before even processing it, if IO is suspended for some reason. In this case, as this request was neither submitted nor sent yet, we must not touch the bitmap. Signed-off-by:

A postponed request might has RQ_IN_ACT_LOG already set, but is POSTPONED before it gets something in the RQ_LOCAL_MASK set. Up to now this caused a left-over active extent. Fix that by only testing for the RQ_IN_ACT_LOG bit in drbd_req_destroy() Signed-off-by:

Without this, the meta-data gets updates after 5 seconds by the md_sync_timer. Better to do it immeditaly after a state change. If the asender detects a network failure, it may take a bit until the worker processes the according after-conn-state-change work item. The worker might be blocked in sending something, i.e. it takes until it gets into its timeout. That is 6 seconds by default which is longer than the 5 seconds of the md_sync_timer. Signed-off-by:

With merging the commit 'drbd: Delay/reject other state changes while establishing a connection' the condition check for clearing the flag was wrong. Move the bit clearing to the __drbd_set_state() function in order to have it already cleared for the other parts of the function. I.e. clearing the susp_fen in the after_state_ch() function.

The previous way of doing the state change was also okay since the state change on the susp flag gets propagated from the mdev to the tconn. Fortunately all this goes away in drbd-9.0 Signed-off-by:

If the md_sync_timer triggers a second time, while the work queued during the first time is still pending, this could result in list_add() of an already added item, and corrupt the work item list. This likely only triggered because of the erroneous batch-dequeueing of work items fixed with drbd: dequeue single work items in wait_for_work() Still, skip queueing if md_sync_work is already queued.

As long as we still use drbd_queue_work_front(), we must only dequeue the single first item during normal operation. The comment in drbd_worker() even says so, but bc8a5a1 drbd: remove struct drbd_tl_epoch objects (barrier works) introduced the batch dequeueing again via list_splice_init() in wait_for_work(). Change back to list_move() of the first item, if any. Signed-off-by:

If the preconditions for a state change change after the wait_event() we might hit the BUG() statement in conn_set_state(). With holding the spin_lock while evaluating the condition AND until the actual state change we ensure the the preconditions can not change anymore. Signed-off-by:

drbd_adm_disk_opts() does wait_event(mdev->al_wait, lc_try_lock(mdev->act_log)); drbd_al_shrink(mdev); If the device is very busy, this can take a very long time to succeed. Fix this by temporarily suspending IO, then quickly change the settings, and resume. Signed-off-by:

We must only send P_BARRIER for epochs we actually sent P_DATA in. If we (re-)establish a connection, we reinitialized the send.current_epoch_nr, but forgot to reset send.current_epoch_writes. This could result in a spurious P_BARRIER with stale epoch information, and a disconnect/reconnect cycle once the then "unexpected" P_BARRIER_ACK is received: BAD! BarrierAck #28823 received, expected #28829! Introduce re_init_if_first_write() and maybe_send_barrier() helpers, and call them appropriately for read/write/set-out-of-sync requests. Signed-off-by:

drbd_disconnected() is supposed to clear the resync lru cache, by calling drbd_rs_cancel_all(). We must do so before we call drbd_flush_workqueue(), as at least the callback w_restart_disk_io() may wait for resync progres, and would otherwise deadlock. drbd_finish_peer_reqs() may again populate that cache, which will then potentially be stale after the next resync handshake and bitmap exchange, we have to do it again after that. A stale resync lru cache causes no harm but ugly messages like this: BAD! sector=196608s enr=6 rs_left=-256 rs_failed=0 count=256 cstate=SyncTarget Signed-off-by:
