dm-crypt should only increase device limits, it should not decrease them. This fixes a bug where the user could creates a crypt device with 1024 sector size on the top of scsi device that had 4096 logical block size. The limit 4096 would be lost and the user could incorrectly send 1024-I/Os to the crypt device.

Quoting Documentation/device-mapper/cache.txt: The 'dirty' state for a cache block changes far too frequently for us to keep updating it on the fly. So we treat it as a hint. In normal operation it will be written when the dm device is suspended. If the system crashes all cache blocks will be assumed dirty when restarted. This got broken in commit f177940a ("dm cache metadata: switch to using the new cursor api for loading metadata") in 4.9, which removed the code that consulted cmd->clean_when_opened (CLEAN_SHUTDOWN on-disk flag) when loading cache blocks. This results in data corruption on an unclean shutdown with dirty cache blocks on the fast device. After the crash those blocks are considered clean and may get evicted from the cache at any time. This can be demonstrated by doing a lot of reads to trigger individual evictions, but uncache is more predictable: ### Disable auto-activation in lvm.conf to be able to do uncache in ### time (i.e. see uncache doing flushing) when the fix is applied. # xfs_io -d -c 'pwrite -b 4M -S 0xaa 0 1G' /dev/vdb # vgcreate vg_cache /dev/vdb /dev/vdc # lvcreate -L 1G -n lv_slowdev vg_cache /dev/vdb # lvcreate -L 512M -n lv_cachedev vg_cache /dev/vdc # lvcreate -L 256M -n lv_metadev vg_cache /dev/vdc # lvconvert --type cache-pool --cachemode writeback vg_cache/lv_cachedev --poolmetadata vg_cache/lv_metadev # lvconvert --type cache vg_cache/lv_slowdev --cachepool vg_cache/lv_cachedev # xfs_io -d -c 'pwrite -b 4M -S 0xbb 0 512M' /dev/mapper/vg_cache-lv_slowdev # xfs_io -d -c 'pread -v 254M 512' /dev/mapper/vg_cache-lv_slowdev | head -n 2 0fe00000: bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb ................ 0fe00010: bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb ................ # dmsetup status vg_cache-lv_slowdev 0 2097152 cache 8 27/65536 128 8192/8192 1 100 0 0 0 8192 7065 2 metadata2 writeback 2 migration_threshold 2048 smq 0 rw - ^^^^ 7065 * 64k = 441M yet to be written to the slow device # echo b >/proc/sysrq-trigger # vgchange -ay vg_cache # xfs_io -d -c 'pread -v 254M 512' /dev/mapper/vg_cache-lv_slowdev | head -n 2 0fe00000: bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb ................ 0fe00010: bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb ................ # lvconvert --uncache vg_cache/lv_slowdev Flushing 0 blocks for cache vg_cache/lv_slowdev.

policy_hint_size starts as 0 during __write_initial_superblock(). It isn't until the policy is loaded that policy_hint_size is set in-core (cmd->policy_hint_size). But it never got recorded in the on-disk superblock because __commit_transaction() didn't deal with transfering the in-core cmd->policy_hint_size to the on-disk superblock. The in-core cmd->policy_hint_size gets initialized by metadata_open()'s __begin_transaction_flags() which re-reads all superblock fields. Because the superblock's policy_hint_size was never properly stored, when the cache was created, hints_array_available() would always return false when re-activating a previously created cache. This means __load_mappings() always considered the hints invalid and never made use of the hints (these hints served to optimize). Another detremental side-effect of this oversight is the cache_check utility would fail with: "invalid hint width: 0" Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

The metadata low watermark threshold is set by the kernel. But the kernel depends on userspace to extend the thinpool metadata device when the threshold is crossed. Since the metadata low watermark threshold is not visible to userspace, upon receiving an event, userspace cannot tell that the kernel wants the metadata device extended, instead of some other eventing condition. Making it visible (but not settable) enables userspace to affirmatively know the kernel is asking for a metadata device extension, by comparing metadata_low_watermark against nr_free_blocks_metadata, also reported in status. Current solutions like dmeventd have their own thresholds for extending the data and metadata devices, and both devices are checked against their thresholds on each event. This lessens the value of the kernel-set threshold, since userspace will either extend the metadata device sooner, when receiving another event; or will receive the metadata lowater event and do nothing, if dmeventd's threshold is less than the kernel's. (This second case is dangerous. The metadata lowater event will not be re-sent, so no further event will be generated before the metadata device is out if space, unless some other event causes userspace to recheck its thresholds.)

When using external metadata device and internal hash, recalculate the checksums when the device is created - so that dm-integrity doesn't have to overwrite the device.

dm-integrity locks a range of sectors to prevent concurrent I/O or journal writeback. These locks were not fair - so that many small overlapping I/Os could starve a large I/O indefinitely. Fix this by making the range locks fair. The ranges that are waiting are added to the list "wait_list". If a new I/O overlaps some of the waiting I/Os, it is not dispatched, but it is also added to that wait list. Entries on the wait list are processed in first-in-first-out order, so that an I/O can't starve indefinitely.

Add a new class for dm-delay that delays flush requests. Previously, flushes were delayed as writes, but it caused problems if the user needed to create a device with one or a few slow sectors for the purpose of testing - all flushes would be forwarded to this device and delayed, and that skews the test results.

The vm_area_struct is one of the most fundamental memory management objects, but the management of it is entirely open-coded evertwhere, ranging from allocation and freeing (using kmem_cache_[z]alloc and kmem_cache_free) to initializing all the fields. We want to unify this in order to end up having some unified initialization of the vmas, and the first step to this is to at least have basic allocation functions. Right now those functions are literally just wrappers around the kmem_cache_*() calls. This is a purely mechanical conversion: # new vma: kmem_cache_zalloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_alloc() # copy old vma kmem_cache_alloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_dup(old) # free vma kmem_cache_free(vm_area_cachep, vma) -> vm_area_free(vma) to the point where the old vma passed in to the vm_area_dup() function isn't even used yet (because I've left all the old manual initialization alone).
