The stripe cache has two goals:
1. cache data, so next time if data can be found in stripe cache, disk access
can be avoided.
2. stable data. data is copied from bio to stripe cache and calculated parity.
data written to disk is from stripe cache, so if upper layer changes bio data,
data written to disk isn't impacted.
In my environment, I can guarantee 2 will not happen. And BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES
can guarantee 2 too. For 1, it's not common too. block plug mechanism will
dispatch a bunch of sequentail small requests together. And since I'm using
SSD, I'm using small chunk size. It's rare case stripe cache is really useful.
So I'd like to avoid the copy from bio to stripe cache and it's very helpful
for performance. In my 1M randwrite tests, avoid the copy can increase the
performance more than 30%.
Of course, this shouldn't be enabled by default. It's reported enabling
BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES can harm some workloads before, so I added an option to
control it.

The (lockless) release_list reduces lock contention, but there is excessive
queueing and dequeuing of stripes on this list. A stripe will currently be
queued on the release_list with a stripe reference count > 1. This can cause
the raid5 kernel thread(s) to dequeue the stripe and decrement the refcount
without doing any other useful processing of the stripe. The are two cases
when the stripe can be put on the release_list multiple times before it is
actually handled by the kernel thread(s).
1) make_request() activates the stripe processing in 4k increments. When a
write request is large enough to span multiple chunks of a stripe_head, the
first 4k chunk adds the stripe to the plug list. The next 4k chunk that is
processed for the same stripe puts the stripe on the release_list with a
refcount=2. This can cause the kernel thread to process and decrement the
stripe before the stripe us unplugged, which again will put it back on the
release_list.
2) Whenever IO is scheduled on a stripe (pre-read and/or write), the stripe
refcount is set to the number of active IO (for each chunk). The stripe is
released as each IO complete, and can be queued and dequeued multiple times
on the release_list, until its refcount finally reached zero.
This simple patch will ensure a stripe is only queued on the release_list when
its refcount=1 and is ready to be handled by the kernel thread(s). I added some
instrumentation to raid5 and counted the number of times striped were queued on
the release_list for a variety of write IO sizes. Without this patch the number
of times stripes got queued on the release_list was 100-500% higher than with
the patch. The excess queuing will increase with the IO size. The patch also
improved throughput by 5-10%.

If it is found that we need to pre-read some blocks before a write
can succeed, we normally set STRIPE_DELAYED and don't actually perform
the read until STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE subsequently gets set.
However for a degraded RAID6 we currently perform the reads as soon
as we see that a write is pending. This significantly hurts
throughput.
So:
- when handle_stripe_dirtying find a block that it wants on a device
that is failed, set STRIPE_DELAY, instead of doing nothing, and
- when fetch_block detects that a read might be required to satisfy a
write, only perform the read if STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE is set,
and if we would actually need to read something to complete the write.
This also helps RAID5, though less often as RAID5 supports a
read-modify-write cycle. For RAID5 the read is performed too early
only if the write is not a full 4K aligned write (i.e. no an
R5_OVERWRITE).
Also clean up a couple of horrible bits of formatting.

md: fix problem when adding device to read-only array with bitmap.
added a called to md_reap_sync_thread() which cause a reshape thread
to be interrupted (in particular, it could cause md_thread() to never even
call md_do_sync()).
However it didn't set MD_RECOVERY_INTR so ->finish_reshape() would not
know that the reshape didn't complete.
This only happens when mddev->ro is set and normally reshape threads
don't run in that situation. But raid5 and raid10 can start a reshape
thread during "run" is the array is in the middle of a reshape.
They do this even if ->ro is set.
So it is best to set MD_RECOVERY_INTR before abortingg the
sync thread, just in case.
Though it rare for this to trigger a problem it can cause data corruption
because the reshape isn't finished properly.
So it is suitable for any stable which the offending commit was applied to.

The driver_override field allows us to specify the driver for a device
rather than relying on the driver to provide a positive match of the
device. This shortcuts the existing process of looking up the vendor and
device ID, adding them to the driver new_id, binding the device, then
removing the ID, but it also provides a couple advantages.
First, the above existing process allows the driver to bind to any device
matching the new_id for the window where it's enabled. This is often not
desired, such as the case of trying to bind a single device to a meta
driver like pci-stub or vfio-pci. Using driver_override we can do this
deterministically using:
echo pci-stub > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:03:00.0/driver_override
echo 0000:03:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:03:00.0/driver/unbind
echo 0000:03:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe
Previously we could not invoke drivers_probe after adding a device to
new_id for a driver as we get non-deterministic behavior whether the driver
we intend or the standard driver will claim the device. Now it becomes a
deterministic process, only the driver matching driver_override will probe
the device.
To return the device to the standard driver, we simply clear the
driver_override and reprobe the device:
echo > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:03:00.0/driver_override
echo 0000:03:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:03:00.0/driver/unbind
echo 0000:03:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe
Another advantage to this approach is that we can specify a driver override
to force a specific binding or prevent any binding. For instance when an
IOMMU group is exposed to userspace through VFIO we require that all
devices within that group are owned by VFIO. However, devices can be
hot-added into an IOMMU group, in which case we want to prevent the device
from binding to any driver (override driver = "none") or perhaps have it
automatically bind to vfio-pci. With driver_override it's a simple matter
for this field to be set internally when the device is first discovered to
prevent driver matches.
