commit 9e753ba9b9b405e3902d9f08aec5f2ea58a0c317 upstream.

Commit d595567dc4f0 (MD: fix invalid stored role for a disk) broke linear
hotadd. Let's only fix the role for disks in raid1/10.
Based on Guoqing's original patch.

[ Upstream commit d595567dc4f0c1d90685ec1e2e296e2cad2643ac ]

If we change the number of array's device after device is removed from array,
then add the device back to array, we can see that device is added as active
role instead of spare which we expected.

Please see the below link for details:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-raid&amp;m=153736982015076&amp;w=2

This is caused by that we prefer to use device's previous role which is
recorded by saved_raid_disk, but we should respect the new number of
conf-&gt;raid_disks since it could be changed after device is removed.

[ Upstream commit 6aaa58c994277647f8b05ffef3b9b225a2d08f36 ]

I noticed kmemleak report memory leak when run create/stop
md in a loop, backtrace:
[&lt;000000001ca975e7&gt;] mempool_create_node+0x86/0xd0
[&lt;0000000095576bcd&gt;] md_run+0x1057/0x1410 [md_mod]

[&lt;000000004142cacf&gt;] blkdev_ioctl+0x680/0xd00

The root cause is we alloc mddev-&gt;flush_pool and
mddev-&gt;flush_bio_pool in md_run, but from do_md_stop
will not call into md_stop but __md_stop, move the
mempool_destroy to __md_stop fixes the problem for me.

The bug was introduced in 5a409b4f56d5, the fixes should go to
4.18+

Previously, mddev_put() had a couple different paths for freeing a
mddev, due to the fact that the kobject wasn't initialized when the
mddev was first allocated. If we move the kobject_init() to when it's
first allocated and just use kobject_add() later, we can clean all this
up.

This also removes a hack in mddev_put() to avoid freeing biosets under a
spinlock, which involved copying biosets on the stack after the reset
bioset_init() changes.

There is a lock contention when there are many processes which send flush bios
to md device. eg. Create many lvs on one raid device and mkfs.xfs on each lv.

Now it just can handle flush request sequentially. It needs to wait mddev-&gt;flush_bio
to be NULL, otherwise get mddev-&gt;lock.

This patch remove mddev-&gt;flush_bio and handle flush bio asynchronously.
I did a test with command dbench -s 128 -t 300. This is the test result:

The test is done on raid1 disk with two rotational disks

V5: V4 is more complicated than the version with memory pool. So revert to the memory pool
version

V4: use address of fbio to do hash to choose free flush info.
V3:
Shaohua suggests mempool is overkill. In v3 it allocs memory during creating raid device
and uses a simple bitmap to record which resource is free.

Fix a bug from v2. It should set flush_pending to 1 at first.

V2:
Neil pointed out two problems. One is counting error problem and another is return value
when allocat memory fails.
1. counting error problem
This isn't safe.  It is only safe to call rdev_dec_pending() on rdevs
that you previously called
                          atomic_inc(&amp;rdev-&gt;nr_pending);
If an rdev was added to the list between the start and end of the flush,
this will do something bad.

Now it doesn't use bio_chain. It uses specified call back function for each
flush bio.
2. Returned on IO error when kmalloc fails is wrong.
I use mempool suggested by Neil in V2
3. Fixed some places pointed by Guoqing

There is a lock contention when there are many processes which send flush bios
to md device. eg. Create many lvs on one raid device and mkfs.xfs on each lv.

Now it just can handle flush request sequentially. It needs to wait mddev-&gt;flush_bio
to be NULL, otherwise get mddev-&gt;lock.

This patch remove mddev-&gt;flush_bio and handle flush bio asynchronously.
I did a test with command dbench -s 128 -t 300. This is the test result:

The test is done on raid1 disk with two rotational disks

V5: V4 is more complicated than the version with memory pool. So revert to the memory pool
version

V4: use address of fbio to do hash to choose free flush info.
V3:
Shaohua suggests mempool is overkill. In v3 it allocs memory during creating raid device
and uses a simple bitmap to record which resource is free.

Fix a bug from v2. It should set flush_pending to 1 at first.

For raid6, when two disk of the array are offline, two spare disks can
be added into the array. Before spare disks recovery completing,
system reboot and mdadm thinks it is ok to restart the degraded
array by md_ioctl(). Since disks in raid6 is not only_parity(),
raid5_run() will abort, when there is no PPL feature or not setting
'start_dirty_degraded' parameter. Therefore, mddev-&gt;pers is NULL.

But, mddev-&gt;raid_disks has been set and it will not be cleared when
raid5_run abort. md_ioctl() can execute cmd 'HOT_REMOVE_DISK' to
remove a disk by mdadm, which will cause NULL pointer dereference
in remove_and_add_spares() finally.
