Move the nonrot flag into the queue_limits feature field so that it can
be set atomically with the queue frozen.
Use the chance to switch to defaulting to non-rotational and require
the driver to opt into rotational, which matches the polarity of the
sysfs interface.
For the z2ram, ps3vram, 2x memstick, ubiblock and dcssblk the new
rotational flag is not set as they clearly are not rotational despite
this being a behavior change. There are some other drivers that
unconditionally set the rotational flag to keep the existing behavior
as they arguably can be used on rotational devices even if that is
probably not their main use today (e.g. virtio_blk and drbd).
The flag is automatically inherited in blk_stack_limits matching the

Move the cache control settings into the queue_limits so that the flags

Add new features and flags field for the driver set flags, and internal
(usually sysfs-controlled) flags in the block layer. Note that we'll
eventually remove enough field from queue_limits to bring it back to the

The disable flag is inverted compared to the previous meaning, which
means it now survives a rescan, similar to the max_sectors and
max_discard_sectors user limits.
The FLUSH and FUA flags are now inherited by blk_stack_limits, which
simplified the code in dm a lot, but also causes a slight behavior
change in that dm-switch and dm-unstripe now advertise a write cache
despite setting num_flush_bios to 0. The I/O path will handle this
gracefully, but as far as I can tell the lack of num_flush_bios
and thus flush support is a pre-existing data integrity bug in those
targets that really needs fixing, after which a non-zero num_flush_bios
should be required in dm for targets that map to underlying devices.

The generic stacking of limits implemented in the block layer cannot
correctly handle stacking of zone resource limits (max open zones and
max active zones) because these limits are for an entire device but the
stacking may be for a portion of that device (e.g. a dm-linear target
that does not cover an entire block device). As a result, when DM
devices are created on top of zoned block devices, the DM device never
has any zone resource limits advertized, which is only correct if all
underlying target devices also have no zone resource limits.
If at least one target device has resource limits, the user may see
either performance issues (if the max open zone limit of the device is
exceeded) or write I/O errors if the max active zone limit of one of
the underlying target devices is exceeded.
While it is very difficult to correctly and reliably stack zone resource
limits in general, cases where targets are not sharing zone resources of
the same device can be dealt with relatively easily. Such situation
happens when a target maps all sequential zones of a zoned block device:
for such mapping, other targets mapping other parts of the same zoned
block device can only contain conventional zones and thus will not
require any zone resource to correctly handle write operations.
For a mapped device constructed with such targets, which includes mapped
devices constructed with targets mapping entire zoned block devices, the
zone resource limits can be reliably determined using the non-zero
minimum of the zone resource limits of all targets.
For mapped devices that include targets partially mapping the set of
sequential write required zones of zoned block devices, instead of
advertizing no zone resource limits, it is also better to set the mapped
device limits to the non-zero minimum of the limits of all targets. In
this case the limits for a target depend on the number of sequential
zones being mapped: if this number of zone is larger than the limits,
then the limits of the device apply and can be used. If on the other
hand the target maps a number of zones smaller than the limits, then no
limits is needed and we can assume that the target has no limits (limits
set to 0).
This commit improves zone resource limits handling as described above
by modifying dm_set_zones_restrictions() to iterate the targets of a
mapped device to evaluate the max open and max active zone limits. This
relies on an internal "stacking" of the limits of the target devices
combined with a direct counting of the number of sequential zones
mapped by the targets.
1) For a target mapping an entire zoned block device, the limits for the
target are set to the limits of the device.
2) For a target partially mapping a zoned block device, the number of
mapped sequential zones is used to determine the limits: if the
target maps more sequential write required zones than the device
limits, then the limits of the device are used as-is. If the number
of mapped sequential zones is lower than the limits, then we assume
that the target has no limits (limits set to 0).
As this evaluation is done for each target, the zone resource limits
for the mapped device are evaluated as the non-zero minimum of the
limits of all the targets.
For configurations resulting in unreliable limits, i.e. a table
containing a target partially mapping a zoned device, a warning message
is issued.
The counting of mapped sequential zones for the target is done using the
new function dm_device_count_zones() which performs a report zones on
the entire block device with the callback dm_device_count_zones_cb().
This count of mapped sequential zones is also used to determine if the
mapped device contains only conventional zones. This allows simplifying
dm_set_zones_restrictions() to not do a report zones just for this.
For mapped devices mapping only conventional zones, as before, the
mapped device is changed to a regular device by setting its zoned limit
to false and clearing all its zone related limits.

dm_revalidate_zones() is called from dm_set_zone_restrictions() when the
mapped device queue limits are not yet set. However,
dm_revalidate_zones() calls blk_revalidate_disk_zones() and this
function consults and modifies the mapped device queue limits. Thus,
currently, blk_revalidate_disk_zones() operates on limits that are not
yet initialized.
Fix this by moving the call to dm_revalidate_zones() out of
dm_set_zone_restrictions() and into dm_table_set_restrictions() after
executing queue_limits_set().
To further cleanup dm_set_zones_restrictions(), the message about the
type of zone append (native or emulated) is also moved inside
dm_revalidate_zones().

Move the integrity information into the queue limits so that it can be
set atomically with other queue limits, and that the sysfs changes to
the read_verify and write_generate flags are properly synchronized.
This also allows to provide a more useful helper to stack the integrity
fields, although it still is separate from the main stacking function
as not all stackable devices want to inherit the integrity settings.
Even with that it greatly simplifies the code in md and dm.
Note that the integrity field is moved as-is into the queue limits.
While there are good arguments for removing the separate blk_integrity
structure, this would cause a lot of churn and might better be done at a
later time if desired. However the integrity field in the queue_limits
structure is now unconditional so that various ifdefs can be avoided or
replaced with IS_ENABLED(). Given that tiny size of it that seems like
a worthwhile trade off.

Block layer integrity configuration is a bit complex right now, as it
indirects through operation vectors for a simple two-dimensional
configuration:
a) the checksum type of none, ip checksum, crc, crc64
b) the presence or absence of a reference tag
Remove the integrity profile, and instead add a separate csum_type flag
which replaces the existing ip-checksum field and a new flag that
indicates the presence of the reference tag.
This removes up to two layers of indirect calls, remove the need to
offload the no-op verification of non-PI metadata to a workqueue and
generally simplifies the code. The downside is that block/t10-pi.c now
has to be built into the kernel when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY is
supported. Given that both nvme and SCSI require t10-pi.ko, it is loaded
for all usual configurations that enabled CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY
already, though.

Root cause is that --revert-reshape update the raid_disks from 5 to 4,
while reshape position is still set, and after reassembling the array,
reshape position will be read from super block, then during reshape the
checking of 'writepos' that is caculated by old reshape position will
fail.
Fix this panic the easy way first, by converting the BUG_ON() to
WARN_ON(), and stop the reshape if checkings fail.
Noted that mdadm must fix --revert-shape as well, and probably md/raid
should enhance metadata validation as well, however this means
reassemble will fail and there must be user tools to fix the wrong
metadata.

MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING will always be set when trying to register a new

The test 07reshape5intr will add a new disk to array, then start

__write_sb_page() rounds up the io size to the optimal io size if it
doesn't exceed the data offset, but it doesn't check the final size
exceeds the bitmap length.
For example:
page count - 1
page size - 4K
data offset - 1M
optimal io size - 256K
The final io size would be 256K (64 pages) but md_bitmap_storage_alloc()
allocated 1 page, the IO would write 1 valid page and 63 pages that
happens to be allocated afterwards. This leaks memory to the raid device
superblock.
This issue caused a data transfer failure in nvme-tcp. The network
drivers checks the first page of an IO with sendpage_ok(), it returns
true if the page isn't a slabpage and refcount >= 1. If the page
!sendpage_ok() the network driver disables MSG_SPLICE_PAGES.
As of now the network layer assumes all the pages of the IO are
sendpage_ok() when MSG_SPLICE_PAGES is on.
The bitmap pages aren't slab pages, the first page of the IO is
sendpage_ok(), but the additional pages that happens to be allocated
after the bitmap pages might be !sendpage_ok(). That cause
skb_splice_from_iter() to stop the data transfer, in the case below it
hangs 'mdadm --create'.
The bug is reproducible, in order to reproduce we need nvme-over-tcp
controllers with optimal IO size bigger than PAGE_SIZE. Creating a raid
with bitmap over those devices reproduces the bug.
In order to simulate large optimal IO size you can use dm-stripe with a
single device.
Script to reproduce the issue on top of brd devices using dm-stripe is
attached below (will be added to blktest).
I have added some logs to test the theory:

Deadlock occurs when mddev is being suspended while some flush bio is in
progress. It is a complex issue.
T1. the first flush is at the ending stage, it clears 'mddev->flush_bio'
and tries to submit data, but is blocked because mddev is suspended
by T4.
T2. the second flush sets 'mddev->flush_bio', and attempts to queue
md_submit_flush_data(), which is already running (T1) and won't
execute again if on the same CPU as T1.
T3. the third flush inc active_io and tries to flush, but is blocked because
'mddev->flush_bio' is not NULL (set by T2).
T4. mddev_suspend() is called and waits for active_io dec to 0 which is inc
by T3.

The root issue is non-atomic inc/dec of active_io during flush process.
active_io is dec before md_submit_flush_data is queued, and inc soon
after md_submit_flush_data() run.
md_flush_request
active_io + 1
submit_flushes
active_io - 1
md_submit_flush_data
md_handle_request

If active_io is dec after md_handle_request() instead of within
submit_flushes(), make_request() can be called directly intead of
md_handle_request() in md_submit_flush_data(), and active_io will
only inc and dec once in the whole flush process. Deadlock will be
fixed.
Additionally, the only difference between fixing the issue and before is
that there is no return error handling of make_request(). But after
previous patch cleaned md_write_start(), make_requst() only return error
in raid5_make_request() by dm-raid, see commit 41425f96d7 ("dm-raid456,
md/raid456: fix a deadlock for dm-raid456 while io concurrent with
reshape)". Since dm always splits data and flush operation into two
separate io, io size of flush submitted by dm always is 0, make_request()
will not be called in md_submit_flush_data(). To prevent future
modifications from introducing issues, add WARN_ON to ensure
make_request() no error is returned in this context.

The deletion of safemode_timer in mddev_suspend() is redundant and
potentially harmful now. If timer is about to be woken up but gets
deleted, 'in_sync' will remain 0 until the next write, causing array
to stay in the 'active' state instead of transitioning to 'clean'.
Commit 0d9f4f135e ("MD: Add del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend (fix

after dm is destroyed, the resource which the timer depends on might
have been freed.
However, commit 0dd84b3193 ("md: call __md_stop_writes in md_stop")
added __md_stop_writes() to md_stop(), which is called before freeing
resource. Timer is deleted in __md_stop_writes(), and the origin issue

If there are extreme heavy write I/O continuously hit on relative small

c->gc_stats.in_use continue to increase and exceed CUTOFF_CACHE_ADD.
If 'c->gc_stats.in_use > CUTOFF_CACHE_ADD' happens, all following write

returns 'true'. Because all writes bypass the cache device, counter
c->sectors_to_gc has no chance to be negative value, and garbage

To avoid the above situation, this patch uses a quite conservative way
to fix: if 'c->gc_stats.in_use > CUTOFF_CACHE_ADD' happens, only wakes
up garbage collection thread when the whole cache device is clean.
Before the fix, the writes-always-bypass situation happens after 10+
hours write I/O pressure on 512GB Intel optane memory which acts as
cache device. After this fix, such situation doesn't happen after 36+
hours testing.

Currently, if the gc is running, when the allocator found free_inc
is empty, allocator has to wait the gc finish. Before that, the
IO is blocked.
But actually, there would be some buckets is reclaimable before gc,
and gc will never mark this kind of bucket to be unreclaimable.
So we can put these buckets into free_inc in gc running to avoid
IO being blocked.

Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer:
- Fix DM discard regressions due to DM core switching over to using
queue_limits_set() without DM core and targets first being updated to
set (and stack) discard limits in terms of max_hw_discard_sectors and
not max_discard_sectors
- Fix stable@ DM integrity discard support to set device's
discard_granularity limit to the device's logical block size

Commit 4f563a6473 ("block: add a max_user_discard_sectors queue
limit") changed block core to set max_discard_sectors to:
min(lim->max_hw_discard_sectors, lim->max_user_discard_sectors)
Since commit 1c0e720228 ("dm: use queue_limits_set") it was reported
dm-thinp was failing in a few fstests (generic/347 and generic/405)
with the first WARN_ON_ONCE in dm_cell_key_has_valid_range() being
reported, e.g.:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 30 at drivers/md/dm-bio-prison-v1.c:128 dm_cell_key_has_valid_range+0x3d/0x50
blk_set_stacking_limits() sets max_user_discard_sectors to UINT_MAX,
so given how block core now sets max_discard_sectors (detailed above)
it follows that blk_stack_limits() stacks up the underlying device's
max_hw_discard_sectors and max_discard_sectors is set to match it. If
max_hw_discard_sectors exceeds dm's BIO_PRISON_MAX_RANGE, then
dm_cell_key_has_valid_range() will trigger the warning with:
WARN_ON_ONCE(key->block_end - key->block_begin > BIO_PRISON_MAX_RANGE)
Aside from this warning, the discard will fail. Fix this and other DM
issues by governing discard support in terms of max_hw_discard_sectors
instead of max_discard_sectors.

dm-integrity could set discard_granularity lower than the logical block
size. This could result in failures when sending discard requests to
dm-integrity.
This fix is needed for kernels prior to 6.10.
