Safely allow the discard blocksize to be larger than the cache blocksize
by using the bio prison's range locking support. This also improves
discard performance considerly because larger discards are issued to the
dm-cache device. The discard blocksize was always intended to be
greater than the cache blocksize. But until now it wasn't implemented
safely.
Also, by safely restoring the ability to have discard blocksize larger
than cache blocksize we're able to significantly reduce the memory used
for the cache's discard bitset. Before, with a small discard blocksize,
the discard bitset could get quite large because its size is a function
of the discard blocksize and the origin device's size. For example,
previously, using a 32KB cache blocksize with a 40TB origin resulted in
1280MB of incore memory use for the discard bitset! Now, the discard
blocksize is scaled up accordingly to ensure the discard bitset is
capped at 2**14 bits, or 16KB.

Before, if the user wanted sequential IO to be promoted to the cache
they'd have to set sequential_threshold to some nebulous large value.
Now, the user may easily disable sequential IO detection (and sequential
IO's implicit bypass of the cache) by setting sequential_threshold to 0.
Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
Rather than maintaining a separate promote_threshold variable that we
periodically update we now use the hit count of the oldest clean
block. Also add a fudge factor to discourage demoting dirty blocks.
With some tests this has a sizeable difference, because the old code
was too eager to demote blocks. For example, device-mapper-test-suite's
git_extract_cache_quick test goes from taking 190 seconds, to 142
(linear on spindle takes 250).

These code changes do not introduce a functional change.
But bio_add_page() will never attempt to build up a bio larger than
queue_max_sectors(). Similarly, bio_get_nr_vecs() is also bound by
queue_max_sectors(). Therefore, there is no point in allowing
dm_merge_bvec() to answer "how many sectors can a bio have at this
offset?" with anything larger than queue_max_sectors(). Using
queue_max_sectors() rather than BIO_MAX_SECTORS serves to more
accurately convey the limits that are being imposed.
Also, use unlikely() to clarify the fact that the defensive code in
dm_merge_bvec() relative to max_size going negative shouldn't ever
happen -- if it does happen there is a bug in the block layer for
requesting larger than dm_merge_bvec()'s initial response for a given
offset. Also, update a comment in dm_merge_bvec() relative to
max_hw_sectors_kb. And fix empty newline whitespace.

Throttle IO based on the time it's taking the worker to do one loop.
There were reports of hung task timeouts occuring and it was observed
that the excessively long avgqu-sz (as reported by iostat) was
contributing to these hung tasks.
Throttling definitely helps dm-thinp perform better under heavy IO load
(without being detremental by being overzealous). It reduces avgqu-sz
drastically, e.g.: from 60K to ~6K, and even as low as 150 once metadata
is cached by bufio, when dirty_ratio=5, dirty_background_ratio=2. And
avgqu-sz stays at or below 30K even with dirty_ratio=20,
dirty_background_ratio=10.

These changes help keep metadata backed by dm-bufio in-core longer which

Before, bufio evicted all buffers older than DM_BUFIO_DEFAULT_AGE_SECS.
Having a device (e.g. dm-thinp or dm-cache) lose all metadata just
because associated buffers had been idle for some time is unfriendly.
Now, the user may now configure the number of bytes that bufio retains
using the 'retain_bytes' module parameter. The default is 256K.
Also, the DM_BUFIO_WORK_TIMER_SECS and DM_BUFIO_DEFAULT_AGE_SECS

The walk code was using a 'ro_spine' to hold it's locked btree nodes.
But this data structure is designed for the rolling lock scheme, and
as such automatically unlocks blocks that are two steps up the call
chain. This is not suitable for the simple recursive walk algorithm,
which retraces its steps.
This code is only used by the persistent array code, which in turn is
only used by dm-cache. In order to trigger it you need to have a
mapping tree that is more than 2 levels deep; which equates to 8-16
million cache blocks. For instance a 4T ssd with a very small block
size of 32k only just triggers this bug.
The fix just places the locked blocks on the stack, and stops using
the ro_spine altogether.

Commit 48cf06bc5f ("dm raid: add discard support for RAID levels 4, 5

The dm-raid superblock (struct dm_raid_superblock) is padded to 512
bytes and that size is being used to read it in from the metadata
device into one preallocated page.
Reading or writing this on a 512-byte sector device works fine but on
a 4096-byte sector device this fails.
Set the dm-raid superblock's size to the logical block size of the
metadata device, because IO at that size is guaranteed too work. Also
add a size check to avoid silent partial metadata loss in case the
superblock should ever grow past the logical block size or PAGE_SIZE.

and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

Replaced the use of a Variable Length Array In Struct (VLAIS) with a C99
compliant equivalent. This patch allocates the appropriate amount of memory
using a char array using the SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK macro.
The new code can be compiled with both gcc and clang.

All the interesting information printed by this ioctl
is provided in /proc/mdstat and/or sysfs.
So it isn't needed and isn't used and would be best if it didn't
exist.

Most of the places that call this are doing so pointlessly.
A couple of the others a best replaced with WARN_ON().

unknown ioctls no longer get this deep into md_ioctl since
md_ioctl_valid() was introduced in 3.14.
So remove the test and the misleading comment.
