[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

md: Allow write-intent bitmaps to have chunksize < PAGE_SIZE md currently insists that the chunk size used for write-intent bitmaps (the amount of data that corresponds to one chunk) be at least one page. The reason for this restriction is lost in the mists of time, but a review of the code (and a vague memory) suggests that the only problem would be related to resync. Resync tries very hard to work in multiples of a page, but also needs to sync with units of a bitmap_chunk too. This connection comes out in the bitmap_start_sync call. So change bitmap_start_sync to always work in multiples of a page. If the bitmap chunk size is less that one page, we flag multiple chunks as 'syncing' and generally make them all appear to the resync routines like one chunk. All other code either already works with data ranges that could span multiple chunks, or explicitly only cares about a single chunk. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>

md: tidy up rdev_for_each usage. md.h has an 'rdev_for_each()' macro for iterating the rdevs in an mddev. However it uses the 'safe' version of list_for_each_entry, and so requires the extra variable, but doesn't include 'safe' in the name, which is useful documentation. Consequently some places use this safe version without needing it, and many use an explicity list_for_each entry. So: - rename rdev_for_each to rdev_for_each_safe - create a new rdev_for_each which uses the plain list_for_each_entry, - use the 'safe' version only where needed, and convert all other list_for_each_entry calls to use rdev_for_each.

block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device. With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain 512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size and the logical ditto. This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Fix problem with waiting while holding rcu read lock in md/bitmap.c A recent patch to protect the rdev list with rcu locking leaves us with a problem because we can sleep on memalloc while holding the rcu lock. The rcu lock is only needed while walking the linked list as uninteresting devices (failed or spares) can be removed at any time. So only take the rcu lock while actually walking the linked list. Take a refcount on the rdev during the time when we drop the lock and do the memalloc to start IO.

[PATCH] md: support BIO_RW_BARRIER for md/raid1 We can only accept BARRIER requests if all slaves handle barriers, and that can, of course, change with time.... So we keep track of whether the whole array seems safe for barriers, and also whether each individual rdev handles barriers. We initially assumes barriers are OK. When writing the superblock we try a barrier, and if that fails, we flag things for no-barriers. This will usually clear the flags fairly quickly. If writing the superblock finds that BIO_RW_BARRIER is -ENOTSUPP, we need to resubmit, so introduce function "md_super_wait" which waits for requests to finish, and retries ENOTSUPP requests without the barrier flag. When writing the real raid1, write requests which were BIO_RW_BARRIER but which aresn't supported need to be retried. So raid1d is enhanced to do this, and when any bio write completes (i.e. no retry needed) we remove it from the r1bio, so that devices needing retry are easy to find. We should hardly ever get -ENOTSUPP errors when writing data to the raid. It should only happen if: 1/ the device used to support BARRIER, but now doesn't. Few devices change like this, though raid1 can! or 2/ the array has no persistent superblock, so there was no opportunity to pre-test for barriers when writing the superblock.

md: Protect access to mddev->disks list using RCU 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. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

[PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void. Two callers try to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed by bitmap_file_kick. write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked. It always causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more conveniently be checked. When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive calls into bitmap_file_kick. bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked.

[PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging.

[PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging.

md/bitmap: fix saving of events_cleared and other state. If a bitmap is found to be 'stale' the events_cleared value is set to match 'events'. However if the array is degraded this does not get stored on disk. This can subsequently lead to incorrect behaviour. So change bitmap_update_sb to always update events_cleared in the superblock from the known events_cleared. For neatness also set ->state from ->flags. This requires updating ->state whenever we update ->flags, which makes sense anyway. This is suitable for any active -stable release. cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Improve setting of "events_cleared" for write-intent bitmaps. When an array is degraded, bits in the write-intent bitmap are not cleared, so that if the missing device is re-added, it can be synced by only updated those parts of the device that have changed since it was removed. The enable this a 'events_cleared' value is stored. It is the event counter for the array the last time that any bits were cleared. Sometimes - if a device disappears from an array while it is 'clean' - the events_cleared value gets updated incorrectly (there are subtle ordering issues between updateing events in the main metadata and the bitmap metadata) resulting in the missing device appearing to require a full resync when it is re-added. With this patch, we update events_cleared precisely when we are about to clear a bit in the bitmap. We record events_cleared when we clear the bit internally, and copy that to the superblock which is written out before the bit on storage. This makes it more "obviously correct". We also need to update events_cleared when the event_count is going backwards (as happens on a dirty->clean transition of a non-degraded array). Thanks to Mike Snitzer for identifying this problem and testing early "fixes". Cc: "Mike Snitzer" <snitzer@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>

md: support updating bitmap parameters via sysfs. A new attribute directory 'bitmap' in 'md' is created which contains files for configuring the bitmap. 'location' identifies where the bitmap is, either 'none', or 'file' or 'sector offset from metadata'. Writing 'location' can create or remove a bitmap. Adding a 'file' bitmap this way is not yet supported. 'chunksize' and 'time_base' must be set before 'location' can be set. 'chunksize' can be set before creating a bitmap, but is currently always over-ridden by the bitmap superblock. 'time_base' and 'backlog' can be updated at any time.

After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

Write requests will be acknowledges as complete to the caller (via b_end_io) when all non-WriteMostly devices have completed the write, but will not be cleared from the bitmap until all devices complete. This requires memory allocation to make a local copy of the data being written. If there is insufficient memory, then we fall-back on normal write semantics.

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Also, we get the count of available bytes wrong in one place, so that too can read past the end of the file.

md/bitmap: centralise allocation of bitmap file pages. Instead of allocating pages in read_sb_page, read_page and bitmap_read_sb, allocate them all in bitmap_init_from disk. Also replace the hack of calling "attach_page_buffers(page, NULL)" to ensure that free_buffer() won't complain, by putting a test for PagePrivate in free_buffer().

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging.

md: Allow write-intent bitmaps to have chunksize < PAGE_SIZE md currently insists that the chunk size used for write-intent bitmaps (the amount of data that corresponds to one chunk) be at least one page. The reason for this restriction is lost in the mists of time, but a review of the code (and a vague memory) suggests that the only problem would be related to resync. Resync tries very hard to work in multiples of a page, but also needs to sync with units of a bitmap_chunk too. This connection comes out in the bitmap_start_sync call. So change bitmap_start_sync to always work in multiples of a page. If the bitmap chunk size is less that one page, we flag multiple chunks as 'syncing' and generally make them all appear to the resync routines like one chunk. All other code either already works with data ranges that could span multiple chunks, or explicitly only cares about a single chunk. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

[PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void. Two callers try to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed by bitmap_file_kick. write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked. It always causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more conveniently be checked. When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive calls into bitmap_file_kick. bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked. So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void. Two callers try to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed by bitmap_file_kick. write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked. It always causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more conveniently be checked. When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive calls into bitmap_file_kick. bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked. So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

md/bitmap: rename and tidy up BITMAP_PAGE_CLEAN The flag 'BITMAP_PAGE_CLEAN' has a confusing name as it doesn't mean that the page is clean, but rather that there are counters in the page which allow bits in the bitmap to be cleared - i.e. maybe cleaning can happen. So change it to BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and fix some irregularities: - Don't set it in bitmap_init_from_disk as bitmap_set_memory_bits sets it when needed - in bitmap_daemon_work, if we find a counter that is '1', but need_sync is set, then set BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING again (it was recently cleared) to ensure we don't forget about this bit.

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/bitmap: always wait for writes on unplug. If two threads call bitmap_unplug at the same time, then one might schedule all the writes, and the other might decide that it doesn't need to wait. But really it does. It rarely hurts to wait when it isn't absolutely necessary, and the current code doesn't really focus on 'absolutely necessary' anyway. So just wait always. This can potentially lead to data corruption if a crash happens at an awkward time and data was written before the bitmap was updated. It is very unlikely, but this should go to -stable just to be safe. Appropriate for any -stable.

[PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void. Two callers try to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed by bitmap_file_kick. write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked. It always causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more conveniently be checked. When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive calls into bitmap_file_kick. bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked. So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

[PATCH] md/bitmap: change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable approach. This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e. bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we write directly to those blocks of the device. swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and store the addresses in those buffers. With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this. This approach simplifies a lot of code: - we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for, as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding writes there are. This saves a mempool. - -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if they ever were actually).

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void. Two callers try to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed by bitmap_file_kick. write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked. It always causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more conveniently be checked. When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive calls into bitmap_file_kick. bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked. So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

[PATCH] md/bitmap: cleaner separation of page attribute handlers in md/bitmap md/bitmap has some attributes per-page. Handling of these attributes in largely abstracted in set_page_attr and clear_page_attr. However get_page_attr exposes the format used to store them. So prior to changing that format, introduce test_page_attr instead of get_page_attr, and make appropriate usage changes.

md/bitmap: improve handling of 'allclean'. The 'allclean' flag is used to cache the fact that there is nothing to do, so we can avoid waking up and scanning the bitmap regularly. The two sorts of pages that might need the attention of the bitmap daemon are BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and BITMAP_PAGE_NEEDWRITE pages. So make sure allclean reflects exactly when there are none of those. So: set it before scanning all pages with either bit set. clear it whenever these bits are set clear it when we desire not to clear one of these bits. don't clear it any other time.

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging.

md/bitmap: disentangle two different 'pending' flags. There are two different 'pending' concepts in the handling of the write intent bitmap. Firstly, a 'page' from the bitmap (which container PAGE_SIZE*8 bits) may have changes (bits cleared) that should be written in due course. There is no hurry for these and the page will transition from PENDING to NEEDWRITE and will then be written, though if it ever becomes DIRTY it will be written much sooner and PENDING will be cleared. Secondly, a page of counters - which contains PAGE_SIZE/2 counters, one for each bit, can usefully have a 'pending' flag which indicates if any of the counters are low (2 or 1) and ready to be processed by bitmap_daemon_work(). If this flag is clear we can skip the whole page. These two concepts are currently combined in the bitmap-file flag. This causes a tighter connection between the counters and the bitmap file than I would like - as I want to add some flexibility to the bitmap file. So introduce a new flag with the page-of-counters, and rewrite bitmap_daemon_work() so that it handles the two different 'pending' concepts separately. This also allows us to clear BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING when we write out a dirty page, which may occasionally reduce the number of times we write a page. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void. Two callers try to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed by bitmap_file_kick. write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked. It always causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more conveniently be checked. When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive calls into bitmap_file_kick. bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked. So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks.

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device.

md/bitmap: disentangle two different 'pending' flags. There are two different 'pending' concepts in the handling of the write intent bitmap. Firstly, a 'page' from the bitmap (which container PAGE_SIZE*8 bits) may have changes (bits cleared) that should be written in due course. There is no hurry for these and the page will transition from PENDING to NEEDWRITE and will then be written, though if it ever becomes DIRTY it will be written much sooner and PENDING will be cleared. Secondly, a page of counters - which contains PAGE_SIZE/2 counters, one for each bit, can usefully have a 'pending' flag which indicates if any of the counters are low (2 or 1) and ready to be processed by bitmap_daemon_work(). If this flag is clear we can skip the whole page. These two concepts are currently combined in the bitmap-file flag. This causes a tighter connection between the counters and the bitmap file than I would like - as I want to add some flexibility to the bitmap file. So introduce a new flag with the page-of-counters, and rewrite bitmap_daemon_work() so that it handles the two different 'pending' concepts separately. This also allows us to clear BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING when we write out a dirty page, which may occasionally reduce the number of times we write a page. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

But if it is the 'current' page we will have cleared that bit ourselves, so skipping it is wrong. So: move the 'skip this page' inside 'if page != lastpage'.

md/bitmap: make _page_attr bitops atomic. Using e.g. set_bit instead of __set_bit and using test_and_clear_bit allow us to remove some locking and contract other locked ranges.

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

md: reduce CPU wastage on idle md array with a write-intent bitmap Recent patch titled Reduce CPU wastage on idle md array with a write-intent bitmap. would sometimes leave the array with dirty bitmap bits that stay dirty.

md: reduce CPU wastage on idle md array with a write-intent bitmap On an md array with a write-intent bitmap, a thread wakes up every few seconds and scans the bitmap looking for work to do. If the array is idle, there will be no work to do, but a lot of scanning is done to discover this.

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

[PATCH] md: avoid possible BUG_ON in md bitmap handling md/bitmap tracks how many active write requests are pending on blocks associated with each bit in the bitmap, so that it knows when it can clear the bit (when count hits zero). The counter has 14 bits of space, so if there are ever more than 16383, we cannot cope. Currently the code just calles BUG_ON as "all" drivers have request queue limits much smaller than this. However is seems that some don't. Apparently some multipath configurations can allow more than 16383 concurrent write requests. So, in this unlikely situation, instead of calling BUG_ON we now wait for the count to drop down a bit. This requires a new wait_queue_head, some waiting code, and a wakeup call. Tested by limiting the counter to 20 instead of 16383 (writes go a lot slower in that case...).

md/raid1: submit IO from originating thread instead of md thread. queuing writes to the md thread means that all requests go through the one processor which may not be able to keep up with very high request rates.

md/raid1: delay reads that could overtake behind-writes. When a raid1 array is configured to support write-behind on some devices, it normally only reads from other devices. If all devices are write-behind (because the rest have failed) it is possible for a read request to be serviced before a behind-write request, which would appear as data corruption. So when forced to read from a WriteMostly device, wait for any write-behind to complete, and don't start any more behind-writes. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/bitmap: It is OK to clear bits during recovery. commit d0a4bb492772ce5c4bdfba3744a99ed6f6fb238f introduced a regression which is annoying but fairly harmless. When writing to an array that is undergoing recovery (a spare in being integrated into the array), writing to the array will set bits in the bitmap, but they will not be cleared when the write completes. For bits covering areas that have not been recovered yet this is not a problem as the recovery will clear the bits. However bits set in already-recovered region will stay set and never be cleared. This doesn't risk data integrity. The only negatives are: - next time there is a crash, more resyncing than necessary will be done. - the bitmap doesn't look clean, which is confusing. While an array is recovering we don't want to update the 'events_cleared' setting in the bitmap but we do still want to clear bits that have very recently been set - providing they were written to the recovering device. So split those two needs - which previously both depended on 'success' and always clear the bit of the write went to all devices. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Improve setting of "events_cleared" for write-intent bitmaps. When an array is degraded, bits in the write-intent bitmap are not cleared, so that if the missing device is re-added, it can be synced by only updated those parts of the device that have changed since it was removed. The enable this a 'events_cleared' value is stored. It is the event counter for the array the last time that any bits were cleared. Sometimes - if a device disappears from an array while it is 'clean' - the events_cleared value gets updated incorrectly (there are subtle ordering issues between updateing events in the main metadata and the bitmap metadata) resulting in the missing device appearing to require a full resync when it is re-added. With this patch, we update events_cleared precisely when we are about to clear a bit in the bitmap. We record events_cleared when we clear the bit internally, and copy that to the superblock which is written out before the bit on storage. This makes it more "obviously correct". We also need to update events_cleared when the event_count is going backwards (as happens on a dirty->clean transition of a non-degraded array).

[PATCH] md: avoid possible BUG_ON in md bitmap handling md/bitmap tracks how many active write requests are pending on blocks associated with each bit in the bitmap, so that it knows when it can clear the bit (when count hits zero). The counter has 14 bits of space, so if there are ever more than 16383, we cannot cope. Currently the code just calles BUG_ON as "all" drivers have request queue limits much smaller than this. However is seems that some don't. Apparently some multipath configurations can allow more than 16383 concurrent write requests. So, in this unlikely situation, instead of calling BUG_ON we now wait for the count to drop down a bit. This requires a new wait_queue_head, some waiting code, and a wakeup call. Tested by limiting the counter to 20 instead of 16383 (writes go a lot slower in that case...).

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch.

md: Allow write-intent bitmaps to have chunksize < PAGE_SIZE md currently insists that the chunk size used for write-intent bitmaps (the amount of data that corresponds to one chunk) be at least one page. The reason for this restriction is lost in the mists of time, but a review of the code (and a vague memory) suggests that the only problem would be related to resync. Resync tries very hard to work in multiples of a page, but also needs to sync with units of a bitmap_chunk too. This connection comes out in the bitmap_start_sync call. So change bitmap_start_sync to always work in multiples of a page. If the bitmap chunk size is less that one page, we flag multiple chunks as 'syncing' and generally make them all appear to the resync routines like one chunk. All other code either already works with data ranges that could span multiple chunks, or explicitly only cares about a single chunk. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>

md: Don't let implementation detail of curr_resync leak out through sysfs. mddev->curr_resync has artificial values of '1' and '2' which are used by the code which ensures only one resync is happening at a time on any given device. These values are internal and should never be exposed to user-space (except when translated appropriately as in the 'pending' status in /proc/mdstat). Unfortunately they are as ->curr_resync is assigned to ->curr_resync_completed and that value is directly visible through sysfs.

md: resolve confusion of MD_CHANGE_CLEAN MD_CHANGE_CLEAN is used for two different purposes and this leads to confusion. One of the purposes is largely mirrored by MD_CHANGE_PENDING which is not used for anything else, so have MD_CHANGE_PENDING take over that purpose fully. The two purposes are: 1/ tell md_update_sb that an update is needed and that it is just a clean/dirty transition. 2/ tell user-space that an transition from clean to dirty is pending (something wants to write), and tell te kernel (by clearin the flag) that the transition is OK. The first purpose remains wit MD_CHANGE_CLEAN, the second is moved fully to MD_CHANGE_PENDING. This means that various places which conditionally set or cleared MD_CHANGE_CLEAN no longer need to be conditional. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md: improve usefulness and accuracy of sysfs file md/sync_completed. The sync_completed file reports how much of a resync (or recovery or reshape) has been completed. However due to the possibility of out-of-order completion of writes, it is not certain to be accurate. We have an internal value - mddev->curr_resync_completed - which is an accurate value (though it might not always be quite so uptodate). So: - make curr_resync_completed be uptodate a little more often, particularly when raid5 reshape updates status in the metadata - report curr_resync_completed in the sysfs file - allow poll/select to report all updates to md/sync_completed. This makes sync_completed completed usable by any external metadata handler that wants to record this status information in its metadata. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/bitmap: be more consistent when setting new bits in memory bitmap. For each active region corresponding to a bit in the bitmap with have a 14bit counter (and some flags). This counts number of active writes + bit in the on-disk bitmap + delay-needed. The "delay-needed" is because we always want a delay before clearing a bit. So the number here is normally number of active writes plus 2. If there have been no writes for a while, we drop to 1. If still no writes we clear the bit and drop to 0. So for consistency, when setting bit from the on-disk bitmap or by request from user-space it is best to set the counter to '2' to start with. In particular we might also set the NEEDED_MASK flag at this time, and in all other cases NEEDED_MASK is only set when the counter is 2 or more. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

[PATCH] md: new sysfs interface for setting bits in the write-intent-bitmap Add a new sysfs interface that allows the bitmap of an array to be dirtied. The interface is write-only, and is used as follows: echo "1000" > /sys/block/md2/md/bitmap (dirty the bit for chunk 1000 [offset 0] in the in-memory and on-disk bitmaps of array md2) echo "1000-2000" > /sys/block/md1/md/bitmap (dirty the bits for chunks 1000-2000 in md1's bitmap) This is useful, for example, in cluster environments where you may need to combine two disjoint bitmaps into one (following a server failure, after a secondary server has taken over the array). By combining the bitmaps on the two servers, a full resync can be avoided (This was discussed on the list back on March 18, 2005, "[PATCH 1/2] md bitmap bug fixes" thread).

md/bitmap: create a 'struct bitmap_counts' substructure of 'struct bitmap' The new "struct bitmap_counts" contains all the fields that are related to counting the number of active writes in each bitmap chunk. Having this separate will make it easier to change the chunksize or overall size of a bitmap atomically. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/bitmap: update dirty flag when bitmap bits are explicitly set. There is a sysfs file which allows bits in the write-intent bitmap to be explicit set - indicating that the block is thought to be 'dirty'. When this happens we should really set recovery_cp backwards to include the block to reflect this dirtiness. In particular, a 'resync' process will refuse to start if recovery_cp is beyond the end of the array, so this is needed to allow a resync to be triggered. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/bitmap: protect against bitmap removal while being updated. A write intent bitmap can be removed from an array while the array is active. When this happens, all IO is suspended and flushed before the bitmap is removed. However it is possible that bitmap_daemon_work is still running to clear old bits from the bitmap. If it is, it can dereference the bitmap after it has been freed. So introduce a new mutex to protect bitmap_daemon_work and get it before destroying a bitmap.

kernfs: s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/ and rename its friends accordingly kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in full conflict mode. Nothing can make the situation any worse. Let's take the chance to name things properly. This patch performs the following renames. * s/sysfs_elem_dir/kernfs_elem_dir/ * s/sysfs_elem_symlink/kernfs_elem_symlink/ * s/sysfs_elem_attr/kernfs_elem_file/ * s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/ * s/sd/kn/ in kernfs proper * s/parent_sd/parent/ * s/target_sd/target/ * s/dir_sd/parent/ * s/to_sysfs_dirent()/rb_to_kn()/ * misc renames of local vars when they conflict with the above Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up modifying them. All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial. While we can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs proper, I don't think such workaround is called for. This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any functional difference. - mic / gpio renames were missing. Spotted by kbuild test robot.

[PATCH] md: allow md intent bitmap to be stored near the superblock. This provides an alternate to storing the bitmap in a separate file. The bitmap can be stored at a given offset from the superblock. Obviously the creator of the array must make sure this doesn't intersect with data.... After is good for version-0.90 superblocks.

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch. Currently the bitmap is stored in a file which must (obviously) be stored on a separate device. The patch only provided infrastructure. It does not update any personalities to bitmap intent logging. Md arrays can still be used with no bitmap file. This patch has minimal impact on such arrays.

[PATCH] md: avoid possible BUG_ON in md bitmap handling md/bitmap tracks how many active write requests are pending on blocks associated with each bit in the bitmap, so that it knows when it can clear the bit (when count hits zero). The counter has 14 bits of space, so if there are ever more than 16383, we cannot cope. Currently the code just calles BUG_ON as "all" drivers have request queue limits much smaller than this. However is seems that some don't. Apparently some multipath configurations can allow more than 16383 concurrent write requests. So, in this unlikely situation, instead of calling BUG_ON we now wait for the count to drop down a bit. This requires a new wait_queue_head, some waiting code, and a wakeup call. Tested by limiting the counter to 20 instead of 16383 (writes go a lot slower in that case...).

md/raid1: delay reads that could overtake behind-writes. When a raid1 array is configured to support write-behind on some devices, it normally only reads from other devices. If all devices are write-behind (because the rest have failed) it is possible for a read request to be serviced before a behind-write request, which would appear as data corruption. So when forced to read from a WriteMostly device, wait for any write-behind to complete, and don't start any more behind-writes. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

sysfs: clean up sysfs_get_dirent() The pre-existing sysfs interfaces which take explicit namespace argument are weird in that they place the optional @ns in front of @name which is contrary to the established convention. For example, we end up forcing vast majority of sysfs_get_dirent() users to do sysfs_get_dirent(parent, NULL, name), which is silly and error-prone especially as @ns and @name may be interchanged without causing compilation warning. This renames sysfs_get_dirent() to sysfs_get_dirent_ns() and swap the positions of @name and @ns, and sysfs_get_dirent() is now a wrapper around sysfs_get_dirent_ns(). This makes confusions a lot less likely. There are other interfaces which take @ns before @name. They'll be updated by following patches.

md/bitmap: allow a bitmap with no backing storage. An md bitmap comprises two parts - internal counting of active writes per 'chunk'. - external storage of whether there are any active writes on each chunk The second requires the first, but the first doesn't require the second. Not having backing storage means that the bitmap cannot expedite resync after a crash, but it still allows us to expedite the recovery of a recently-removed device. So: allow a bitmap to exist even if there is no backing device. In that case we default to 128M chunks. A particular value of this is that we can remove and re-add a bitmap (possibly of a different granularity) on a degraded array, and not lose the information needed to fast-recover the missing device. We don't actually activate these bitmaps yet - that will come in a later patch. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

[PATCH] md: move bitmap_create to after md array has been initialised This is important because bitmap_create uses mddev->resync_max_sectors and that doesn't have a valid value until after the array has been initialised (with pers->run()). [It doesn't make a difference for current personalities that support bitmaps, but will make a difference for raid10] This has the added advantage of meaning with can move the thread->timeout manipulation inside the bitmap.c code instead of sprinkling identical code throughout all personalities.

md: change bitmap_unplug and others to void functions bitmap_unplug only ever returns 0, so it may as well be void. Two callers try to print a message if it returns non-zero, but that message is already printed by bitmap_file_kick. write_page returns an error which is not consistently checked. It always causes BITMAP_WRITE_ERROR to be set on an error, and that can more conveniently be checked. When the return of write_page is checked, an error causes bitmap_file_kick to be called - so move that call into write_page - and protect against recursive calls into bitmap_file_kick. bitmap_update_sb returns an error that is never checked. So make these 'void' and be consistent about checking the bit.

[PATCH] md: optimised resync using Bitmap based intent logging With this patch, the intent to write to some block in the array can be logged to a bitmap file. Each bit represents some number of sectors and is set before any update happens, and only cleared when all writes relating to all sectors are complete. After an unclean shutdown, information in this bitmap can be used to optimise resync - only sectors which could be out-of-sync need to be updated. Also if a drive is removed and then added back into an array, the recovery can make use of the bitmap to optimise reconstruction. This is not implemented in this patch.

md: support updating bitmap parameters via sysfs. A new attribute directory 'bitmap' in 'md' is created which contains files for configuring the bitmap. 'location' identifies where the bitmap is, either 'none', or 'file' or 'sector offset from metadata'. Writing 'location' can create or remove a bitmap. Adding a 'file' bitmap this way is not yet supported. 'chunksize' and 'time_base' must be set before 'location' can be set. 'chunksize' can be set before creating a bitmap, but is currently always over-ridden by the bitmap superblock. 'time_base' and 'backlog' can be updated at any time.

md/bitmap: add new 'space' attribute for bitmaps. If we are to allow bitmaps to be resized when the array is resized, we need to know how much space there is. So create an attribute to store this information and set appropriate defaults. It can be set more precisely via sysfs, or future metadata extensions may allow it to be recorded.
