<title>block: fix an integer overflow in logical block size</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ad6bf88a6c19a39fb3b0045d78ea880325dfcf15</id>
<content type='text'>
Logical block size has type unsigned short. That means that it can be at
most 32768. However, there are architectures that can run with 64k pages
(for example arm64) and on these architectures, it may be possible to
create block devices with 64k block size.

For exmaple (run this on an architecture with 64k pages):

Mount will fail with this error because it tries to read the superblock using 2-sector
access:
  device-mapper: writecache: I/O is not aligned, sector 2, size 1024, block size 65536
  EXT4-fs (dm-0): unable to read superblock

This patch changes the logical block size from unsigned short to unsigned
int to avoid the overflow.

<title>md: improve handling of bio with REQ_PREFLUSH in md_flush_request()</title>

<content type='text'>
If pers-&gt;make_request fails in md_flush_request(), the bio is lost. To
fix this, pass back a bool to indicate if the original make_request call
should continue to handle the I/O and instead of assuming the flush logic
will push it to completion.

Convert md_flush_request to return a bool and no longer calls the raid
driver's make_request function.  If the return is true, then the md flush
logic has or will complete the bio and the md make_request call is done.
If false, then the md make_request function needs to keep processing like
it is a normal bio. Let the original call to md_handle_request handle any
need to retry sending the bio to the raid driver's make_request function
should it be needed.

Also mark md_flush_request and the make_request function pointer as
__must_check to issue warnings should these critical return values be
ignored.

<title>md: add feature flag MD_FEATURE_RAID0_LAYOUT</title>

<id>urn:sha1:33f2c35a54dfd75ad0e7e86918dcbe4de799a56c</id>
<content type='text'>
Due to a bug introduced in Linux 3.14 we cannot determine the
correctly layout for a multi-zone RAID0 array - there are two
possibilities.

It is possible to tell the kernel which to chose using a module
parameter, but this can be clumsy to use.  It would be best if
the choice were recorded in the metadata.
So add a feature flag for this purpose.
If it is set, then the 'layout' field of the superblock is used
to determine which layout to use.

If this flag is not set, then mddev-&gt;layout gets set to -1,
which causes the module parameter to be required.

If the drives in a RAID0 are not all the same size, the array is
divided into zones.
The first zone covers all drives, to the size of the smallest.
The second zone covers all drives larger than the smallest, up to
the size of the second smallest - etc.

A change in Linux 3.14 unintentionally changed the layout for the
second and subsequent zones.  All the correct data is still stored, but
each chunk may be assigned to a different device than in pre-3.14 kernels.
This can lead to data corruption.

It is not possible to determine what layout to use - it depends which
kernel the data was written by.
So we add a module parameter to allow the old (0) or new (1) layout to be
specified, and refused to assemble an affected array if that parameter is
not set.

<title>md raid0/linear: Mark array as 'broken' and fail BIOs if a member is gone</title>
<updated>2019-09-03T21:49:28Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Guilherme G. Piccoli</name>

<published>2019-09-03T19:49:00Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/linux/commit/?id=62f7b1989c02feed9274131b2fd5e990de4aba6f'/>
<id>urn:sha1:62f7b1989c02feed9274131b2fd5e990de4aba6f</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently md raid0/linear are not provided with any mechanism to validate
if an array member got removed or failed. The driver keeps sending BIOs
regardless of the state of array members, and kernel shows state 'clean'
in the 'array_state' sysfs attribute. This leads to the following
situation: if a raid0/linear array member is removed and the array is
mounted, some user writing to this array won't realize that errors are
happening unless they check dmesg or perform one fsync per written file.
Despite udev signaling the member device is gone, 'mdadm' cannot issue the
STOP_ARRAY ioctl successfully, given the array is mounted.

In other words, no -EIO is returned and writes (except direct ones) appear
normal. Meaning the user might think the wrote data is correctly stored in
the array, but instead garbage was written given that raid0 does stripping
(and so, it requires all its members to be working in order to not corrupt
data). For md/linear, writes to the available members will work fine, but
if the writes go to the missing member(s), it'll cause a file corruption
situation, whereas the portion of the writes to the missing devices aren't
written effectively.

This patch changes this behavior: we check if the block device's gendisk
is UP when submitting the BIO to the array member, and if it isn't, we flag
the md device as MD_BROKEN and fail subsequent I/Os to that device; a read
request to the array requiring data from a valid member is still completed.
While flagging the device as MD_BROKEN, we also show a rate-limited warning
in the kernel log.

A new array state 'broken' was added too: it mimics the state 'clean' in
every aspect, being useful only to distinguish if the array has some member
missing. We rely on the MD_BROKEN flag to put the array in the 'broken'
state. This state cannot be written in 'array_state' as it just shows
one or more members of the array are missing but acts like 'clean', it
wouldn't make sense to write it.

With this patch, the filesystem reacts much faster to the event of missing
array member: after some I/O errors, ext4 for instance aborts the journal
and prevents corruption. Without this change, we're able to keep writing
in the disk and after a machine reboot, e2fsck shows some severe fs errors
that demand fixing. This patch was tested in ext4 and xfs filesystems, and
requires a 'mdadm' counterpart to handle the 'broken' state.

Prior patches ensured that any bio that interacts with a request_queue
is properly associated with a blkg. This makes bio-&gt;bi_css unnecessary
as blkg maintains a reference to blkcg already.

This removes the bio field bi_css and transfers corresponding uses to
access via bi_blkg.
