We will soon be interpreting the layout (and chunksize etc) from multiple places to support reshape. So split it out into separate function. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

When RAID10 supports reshape it will need a 'previous' and a 'current' geometry, so introduce that here. Use the 'prev' geometry when before the reshape_position, and the current 'geo' when beyond it. At other times, use both as appropriate. For now, both are identical (And reshape_position is never set). When we use the 'prev' geometry, we must use the old data_offset. When we use the current (And a reshape is happening) we must use the new_data_offset. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Some resync type operations need to act on the address space of the device, others on the address space of the array. This only affects RAID10, so it sets resync_max_sectors to the array size (it defaults to the device size), and that is currently used for resync only. However reshape of a RAID10 must be done against the array size, not device size, so change code to use resync_max_sectors for both the resync and the reshape cases. This does not affect RAID5 or RAID1, just RAID10. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Some code in raid1 and raid10 use sync_page_io to read/write pages when responding to read errors. As we will shortly support changing data_offset for raid10, this function must understand new_data_offset. So add that understanding. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

We will shortly be adding reshape support for RAID10 which will require it having 2 concurrent geometries (before and after). To make that easier, collect most geometry fields into 'struct geom' and access them from there. Then we will more easily be able to add a second set of fields. Note that 'copies' is not in this struct and so cannot be changed. There is little need to change this number and doing so is a lot more difficult as it requires reallocating more things. So leave it out for now. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

The important issue here is incorporating the different in data_offset into calculations concerning when we might need to over-write data that is still thought to be valid. To this end we find the minimum offset difference across all devices and add that where appropriate. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

As there can now be two different data_offsets - an 'old' and a 'new' - we need to carefully choose between them. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

When reshaping we can avoid costly intermediate backup by changing the 'start' address of the array on the device (if there is enough room). So as a first step, allow such a change to be requested through sysfs, and recorded in v1.x metadata. (As we didn't previous check that all 'pad' fields were zero, we need a new FEATURE flag for this. A (belatedly) check that all remaining 'pad' fields are zero to avoid a repeat of this) The new data offset must be requested separately for each device. This allows each to have a different change in the data offset. This is not likely to be used often but as data_offset can be set per-device, new_data_offset should be too. This patch also removes the 'acknowledged' arg to rdev_set_badblocks as it is never used and never will be. At the same time we add a new arg ('in_new') which is currently always zero but will be used more soon. When a reshape finishes we will need to update the data_offset and rdev->sectors. So provide an exported function to do that. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Currently a reshape operation always progresses from the start of the array to the end unless the number of devices is being reduced, in which case it progressed in the opposite direction. To reverse a partial reshape which changes the number of devices you can stop the array and re-assemble with the raid-disks numbers reversed and it will undo. However for a reshape that does not change the number of devices it is not possible to reverse the reshape in the middle - you have to wait until it completes. So add a 'reshape_direction' attribute with is either 'forwards' or 'backwards' and can be explicitly set when delta_disks is zero. This will become more important when we allow the data_offset to change in a reshape. Then the explicit statement of what direction is being used will be more useful. This can be enabled in raid5 trivially as it already supports reverse reshape and just needs to use a different trigger to request it. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

The old code was sector_div(stride, fc); the new code was sector_dir(size, conf->near_copies); 'size' is right (the stride various wasn't really needed), but 'fc' means 'far_copies', and that is an important difference. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Use del_timer_sync to remove timer before mddev_suspend finishes. We don't want a timer going off after an mddev_suspend is called. This is especially true with device-mapper, since it can call the destructor function immediately following a suspend. This results in the removal (kfree) of the structures upon which the timer depends - resulting in a very ugly panic. Therefore, we add a del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend to prevent this.

raid10 stores dev_sectors in 'conf' separately from the one in 'mddev' because it can have a very significant effect on block addressing and so need to be updated carefully. However raid10_resize isn't updating it at all! To update it correctly, we need to make sure it is a proper multiple of the chunksize taking various details of the layout in to account. This calculation is currently done in setup_conf. So split it out from there and call it from raid10_resize as well. Then set conf->dev_sectors properly. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

commit 61a0d80c "md/bitmap: discard CHUNK_BLOCK_SHIFT macro" replaced CHUNK_BLOCK_RATIO() by the same text that was replacing CHUNK_BLOCK_SHIFT() - which is clearly wrong. The result is that 'chunks' is often too small by 1, which can sometimes result in a crash (not sure how). So use the correct replacement, and get rid of CHUNK_BLOCK_RATIO which is no longe used.

The autofs packet size has had a very unfortunate size problem on x86: because the alignment of 'u64' differs in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, and because the packet data was not 8-byte aligned, the size of the autofsv5 packet structure differed between 32-bit and 64-bit modes despite looking otherwise identical (300 vs 304 bytes respectively). We first fixed that up by making the 64-bit compat mode know about this problem in commit a32744d4 ("autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64"), and that made a 32-bit 'systemd' work happily on a 64-bit kernel because everything then worked the same way as on a 32-bit kernel. But it turned out that 'automount' had actually known and worked around this problem in user space, so fixing the kernel to do the proper 32-bit compatibility handling actually *broke* 32-bit automount on a 64-bit kernel, because it knew that the packet sizes were wrong and expected those incorrect sizes. As a result, we ended up reverting that compatibility mode fix, and thus breaking systemd again, in commit fcbf94b9. With both automount and systemd doing a single read() system call, and verifying that they get *exactly* the size they expect but using different sizes, it seemed that fixing one of them inevitably seemed to break the other. At one point, a patch I seriously considered applying from Michael Tokarev did a "strcmp()" to see if it was automount that was doing the operation. Ugly, ugly. However, a prettier solution exists now thanks to the packetized pipe mode. By marking the communication pipe as being packetized (by simply setting the O_DIRECT flag), we can always just write the bigger packet size, and if user-space does a smaller read, it will just get that partial end result and the extra alignment padding will simply be thrown away. This makes both automount and systemd happy, since they now get the size they asked for, and the kernel side of autofs simply no longer needs to care - it could pad out the packet arbitrarily. Of course, if there is some *other* user of autofs (please, please, please tell me it ain't so - and we haven't heard of any) that tries to read the packets with multiple writes, that other user will now be broken - the whole point of the packetized mode is that one system call gets exactly one packet, and you cannot read a packet in pieces.

Linus Torvalds authored
The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that as a special packetized mode. When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer). End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway), and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of the packet. NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF). Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to explicitly support bigger packets some day. The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface, allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

This reverts commit a32744d4. While that commit was technically the right thing to do, and made the x86-64 compat mode work identically to native 32-bit mode (and thus fixing the problem with a 32-bit systemd install on a 64-bit kernel), it turns out that the automount binaries had workarounds for this compat problem. Now, the workarounds are disgusting: doing an "uname()" to find out the architecture of the kernel, and then comparing it for the 64-bit cases and fixing up the size of the read() in automount for those. And they were confused: it's not actually a generic 64-bit issue at all, it's very much tied to just x86-64, which has different alignment for an 'u64' in 64-bit mode than in 32-bit mode. But the end result is that fixing the compat layer actually breaks the case of a 32-bit automount on a x86-64 kernel. There are various approaches to fix this (including just doing a "strcmp()" on current->comm and comparing it to "automount"), but I think that I will do the one that teaches pipes about a special "packet mode", which will allow user space to not have to care too deeply about the padding at the end of the autofs packet. That change will make the compat workaround unnecessary, so let's revert it first, and get automount working again in compat mode. The packetized pipes will then fix autofs for systemd.

Clearing bit 5 of CACHE_MODE_0 is necessary to prevent GPU hangs in OpenGL programs such as Google MapsGL, Google Earth, and gzdoom when using separate stencil buffers. Without it, the GPU tries to use the LRA eviction policy, which isn't supported. This was supposed to be off by default, but seems to be on for many machines. This cannot be done in gen6_init_clock_gating with most of the other workaround bits; the render ring needs to exist. Otherwise, the register write gets dropped on the floor (one printk will show it changed, but a second printk immediately following shows the value reverts to the old one).

Pull build fixes for less mainstream architectures from Paul Gortmaker: "These are fixes for frv(1), blackfin(2), powerpc(1) and xtensa(4). Fortunately the touches are nearly all specific to files just used by the arch in question. The two touches to shared/common files [kernel/irq/debug.h and drivers/pci/Makefile] are trivial to assess as no risk to anyone. Half of them relate to xtensa directly. It was only when I fixed the last xtensa issue that I realized that the arch has been broken for a significant time, and isn't a specific v3.4 regression. So if you wanted, we could leave xtensa lying bleeding in the street for a couple more weeks and queue those for 3.5. But given they are no risk to anyone outside of xtensa, I figured to just leave them in. If you are OK with taking the xtensa fixes, then please pull to get: - one last implicit include uncovered by system.h that is in a file specific to just one powerpc defconfig. (I'd sync'd with BenH). - fix an oversight in the PCI makefile where shared code wasn't being compiled for ARCH=frv - fix a missing include for GPIO in blackfin framebuffer. - audit and tag endif in blackfin ezkit board file, in order to find and fix the misplaced endif masking a block of code. - fix irq/debug.h choice of temporary macro names to be more internal so they don't conflict with names used by xtensa. - fix a reference to an undeclared local var in xtensa's signal.c - fix an implicit bug.h usage in xtensa's asm/io.h uncovered by my removing bug.h from kernel.h - fix xtensa to properly indicate it is using asm-generic/hardirq.h in order to resolve the link error - undefined ack_bad_irq The xtensa still fails final link as my latest binutils does something evil when ld forward-relocates unlikely() blocks, but in theory people who have older/valid toolchains could now use the thing." * 'for-v3.4-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: xtensa: fix build fail on undefined ack_bad_irq blackfin: fix ifdef fustercluck in mach-bf538/boards/ezkit.c blackfin: fix compile error in bfin-lq035q1-fb.c pci: frv architecture needs generic setup-bus infrastructure irq: hide debug macros so they don't collide with others. xtensa: fix build error in xtensa/include/asm/io.h xtensa: fix build failure in xtensa/kernel/signal.c powerpc: fix system.h fallout in sysdev/scom.c [chroma_defconfig]

In xen_restore_fl_direct(), xen_force_evtchn_callback() was being called even if no events were pending. This resulted in (depending on workload) about a 100 times as many xen_version hypercalls as necessary. Fix this by correcting the sense of the conditional jump. This seems to give a significant performance benefit for some workloads. There is some subtle tricksy "..since the check here is trying to check both pending and masked in a single cmpw, but I think this is correct. It will call check_events now only when the combined mask+pending word is 0x0001 (aka unmasked, pending)."
