commit 80b4812407c6b1f66a4f2430e69747a13f010839 upstream.
The 'enough' function is written to work with 'near' arrays only
in that is implicitly assumes that the offset from one 'group' of
devices to the next is the same as the number of copies.
In reality it is the number of 'near' copies.
So change it to make this number explicit.
This bug makes it possible to run arrays without enough drives
present, which is dangerous.
It is appropriate for an -stable kernel, but will almost certainly
need to be modified for some of them.

commit b50c259e25d9260b9108dc0c2964c26e5ecbe1c1 upstream.
If we discover a bad block when reading we split the request and
potentially read some of it from a different device.
The code path of this has two bugs in RAID10.
1/ we get a spin_lock with _irq, but unlock without _irq!!
2/ The calculation of 'sectors_handled' is wrong, as can be clearly
seen by comparison with raid1.c
This leads to at least 2 warnings and a probable crash is a RAID10
ever had known bad blocks.

commit e8b849158508565e0cd6bc80061124afc5879160 upstream.
commit e875ecea266a543e643b19e44cf472f1412708f9
md/raid10 record bad blocks as needed during recovery.
added code to the "cannot recover this block" path to record a bad
block rather than fail the whole recovery.
Unfortunately this new case was placed *after* r10bio was freed rather
than *before*, yet it still uses r10bio.
This is will crash with a null dereference.
So move the freeing of r10bio down where it is safe.

commit 61e4947c99c4494336254ec540c50186d186150b upstream.
Since:
commit 7ceb17e87bde79d285a8b988cfed9eaeebe60b86
md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.
spares are activated on a read-only array. In case of raid1 and raid10
personalities it causes that not-in-sync devices are marked in-sync
without checking if recovery has been finished.
If a read-only array is degraded and one of its devices is not in-sync
(because the array has been only partially recovered) recovery will be skipped.
This patch adds checking if recovery has been finished before marking a device
in-sync for raid1 and raid10 personalities. In case of raid5 personality
such condition is already present (at raid5.c:6029).
Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption.

commit e2d59925221cd562e07fee38ec8839f7209ae603 upstream.
Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they
really should call freeze_array.
The former is only intended to be called from "make_request".
The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to
flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the
management thread.
Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock. Using freeze_array
should not.
As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in
handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass
it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore.
The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits
050b66152f87c7 (raid10) and 6b740b8d79252f13 (raid1) which
appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable
kernel since then.
This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and
will need to be applied by hand.

commit 0eb25bb027a100f5a9df8991f2f628e7d851bc1e upstream.
We always need to be careful when calling generic_make_request, as it
can start a chain of events which might free something that we are
using.
Here is one place I wasn't careful enough. If the wbio2 is not in
use, then it might get freed at the first generic_make_request call.
So perform all necessary tests first.
This bug was introduced in 3.3-rc3 (24afd80d99) and can cause an
oops, so fix is suitable for any -stable since then.

non-rebuilding drive completed it.
commit 3056e3aec8d8ba61a0710fb78b2d562600aa2ea7 upstream.
Without that fix, the following scenario could happen:
- RAID1 with drives A and B; drive B was freshly-added and is rebuilding
- Drive A fails
- WRITE request arrives to the array. It is failed by drive A, so
r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_WriteError, but the rebuilding drive B
succeeds in writing it, so the same r1_bio is marked as
R1BIO_Uptodate.
- r1_bio arrives to handle_write_finished, badblocks are disabled,
md_error()->error() does nothing because we don't fail the last drive
of raid1
- raid_end_bio_io() calls call_bio_endio()
- As a result, in call_bio_endio():
if (!test_bit(R1BIO_Uptodate, &r1_bio->state))
clear_bit(BIO_UPTODATE, &bio->bi_flags);
this code doesn't clear the BIO_UPTODATE flag, and the whole master
WRITE succeeds, back to the upper layer.
So we returned success to the upper layer, even though we had written
the data onto the rebuilding drive only. But when we want to read the
data back, we would not read from the rebuilding drive, so this data
is lost.
[neilb - applied identical change to raid10 as well]
This bug can result in lost data, so it is suitable for any
-stable kernel.

commit e7c0c3fa29280d62aa5e11101a674bb3064bd791 upstream.
When a replacement operation completes there is a small window
when the original device is marked 'faulty' and the replacement
still looks like a replacement. The faulty should be removed and
the replacement moved in place very quickly, bit it isn't instant.
So the code write out to the array must handle the possibility that
the only working device for some slot in the replacement - but it
doesn't. If the primary device is faulty it just gives up. This
can lead to corruption.
So make the code more robust: if either the primary or the
replacement is present and working, write to them. Only when
neither are present do we give up.
This bug has been present since replacement was introduced in
3.3, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel since then.

commit 884162df2aadd7414bef4935e1a54976fd4e3988 upstream.
When a write to a replacement device completes, we carefully
and correctly found the rdev that the write actually went to
and the blithely called rdev_dec_pending on the primary rdev,
even if this write was to the replacement.
This means that any writes to an array while a replacement
was ongoing would cause the nr_pending count for the primary
device to go negative, so it could never be removed.
This bug has been present since replacement was introduced in
3.3, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel since then.

commit e0ee778528bbaad28a5c69d2e219269a3a096607 upstream.
A 'struct r10bio' has an array of per-copy information at the end.
This array is declared with size [0] and r10bio_pool_alloc allocates
enough extra space to store the per-copy information depending on the
number of copies needed.
So declaring a 'struct r10bio on the stack isn't going to work. It
won't allocate enough space, and memory corruption will ensue.
So in the two places where this is done, declare a sufficiently large
structure and use that instead.
The two call-sites of this bug were introduced in 3.4 and 3.5
so this is suitable for both those kernels. The patch will have to
be modified for 3.4 as it only has one bug.

commit fc448a18ae6219af9a73257b1fbcd009efab4a81 upstream.
If a RAID10 has an odd number of chunks - as might happen when there
are an odd number of devices - the last chunk has no pair and so is
not mirrored. We don't store data there, but when recovering the last
device in an array we retry to recover that last chunk from a
non-existent location. This results in an error, and the recovery
aborts.
When we get to that last chunk we should just stop - there is nothing
more to do anyway.
This bug has been present since the introduction of RAID10, so the
patch is appropriate for any -stable kernel.

commit aba336bd1d46d6b0404b06f6915ed76150739057 upstream.
The new merge_bvec_fn which calls the corresponding function
in subsidiary devices requires that mddev->merge_check_needed
be set if any child has a merge_bvec_fn.
However were were only setting that when a device was hot-added,
not when a device was present from the start.
This bug was introduced in 3.4 so patch is suitable for 3.4.y

patch will be needed for 3.4.y.

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.

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.

When comparing two pages read from different legs of a mirror, only
compare the bytes that were read, not the whole page.
In most cases we read a whole page, but in some cases with
bad blocks or odd sizes devices we might read fewer than that.
This bug has been present "forever" but at worst it might cause
a report of two many mismatches and generate a little bit
extra resync IO, so there is no need to back-port to -stable
kernels.

'resizing' an array in this context means making use of extra
space that has become available in component devices, not adding new
devices.
It also includes shrinking the array to take up less space of
component devices.
This is not supported for array with a 'far' layout. However
for 'near' and 'offset' layout arrays, adding and removing space at
the end of the devices is easy to support, and this patch provides
that support.

Currently we don't honour merge_bvec_fn in member devices so if there
is one, we force all requests to be single-page at most.
This is not ideal.
So enhance the raid10 merge_bvec_fn to check that function in children
as well.
This introduces a small problem. There is no locking around calls
the ->merge_bvec_fn and subsequent calls to ->make_request. So a
device added between these could end up getting a request which
violates its merge_bvec_fn.
Currently the best we can do is synchronize_sched(). This will work
providing no preemption happens. If there is preemption, we just
have to hope that new devices are largely consistent with old devices.

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.

If RAID1 or RAID10 is used under LVM or some other stacking
block device, it is possible to enter a deadlock during
resync or recovery.
This can happen if the upper level block device creates
two requests to the RAID1 or RAID10. The first request gets
processed, blocks recovery and queue requests for underlying
requests in current->bio_list. A resync request then starts
which will wait for those requests and block new IO.
But then the second request to the RAID1/10 will be attempted
and it cannot progress until the resync request completes,
which cannot progress until the underlying device requests complete,
which are on a queue behind that second request.
So allow that second request to proceed even though there is
a resync request about to start.
This is suitable for any -stable kernel.

When an array is failed (some data inaccessible) then there is no
point attempting to add a spare as it could not possibly be recovered.
However that may be value in re-adding a recently removed device.
e.g. if there is a write-intent-bitmap and it is clear, then access
to the data could be restored by this action.
So don't reject a re-add to a failed array for RAID10 and RAID5 (the
only arrays types that check for a failed array).

added an smp_mb in end_sync_write.
This was to close a possible race with raid10_remove_disk.
However there is no such race as it is never attempted to remove a
disk while resync (or recovery) is happening.

If we get a read error on the last working device in a RAID10 which
contains the target block, then we don't fail the device (which is
good) but we don't abort retries, which is wrong.
We end up in an infinite loop retrying the read on the one device.
This patch fixes the problem in two places:
1/ in raid10_end_read_request we don't even ask for a retry if this
was the last usable device. This is efficient but a little racy
and will sometimes retry when it should not.
2/ in handle_read_error we are careful to exclude any device from
retry which we tried to mark as faulty (that might have failed if
it was the last device). This is race-free but less efficient.

This is a fairly serious bug in RAID10.
When a RAID10 array is degraded and a hot-spare is activated, the
spare does not take up the empty slot, but rather replaces the first
working device.
This is likely to make the array non-functional. It would normally
be possible to recover the data, but that would need care and is not
guaranteed.
This bug was introduced in commit
2bb77736ae5dca0a189829fbb7379d43364a9dac
which first appeared in 3.1.

In 3.0 we changed the way recovery_disabled was handle so that instead
of testing against zero, we test an mddev-> value against a conf->
value.
Two problems:
1/ one place in raid1 was missed and still sets to '1'.
2/ We didn't explicitly set the conf-> value at array creation
time.
It defaulted to '0' just like the mddev value does so they
could appear equal and thus disable recovery.
This did not affect normal 'md' as it calls bind_rdev_to_array
which changes the mddev value. However the dmraid interface
doesn't call this and so doesn't change ->recovery_disabled; so at
array start all recovery is incorrectly disabled.
So initialise the 'conf' value to one less that the mddev value, so
the will only be the same when explicitly set that way.

RAID1 and RAID10 handle write requests by queuing them for handling by
a separate thread. This is because when a write-intent-bitmap is
active we might need to update the bitmap first, so it is good to
queue a lot of writes, then do one big bitmap update for them all.
However writeback request devices to appear to be congested after a
while so it can make some guesstimate of throughput. The infinite
queue defeats that (note that RAID5 has already has a finite queue so
it doesn't suffer from this problem).
So impose a limit on the number of pending write requests. By default
it is 1024 which seems to be generally suitable. Make it configurable
via module option just in case someone finds a regression.

Having mddev_t and 'struct mddev_s' is ugly and not preferred
