commit e836007089ba8fdf24e636ef2b007651fb4582e6 upstream.

We've found that using raid0 with the 'original' layout and discard
enabled with different disk sizes (such that at least two zones are
created) can result in data corruption. This is due to the fact that
the discard handling in 'raid0_handle_discard()' assumes the 'alternate'
layout. We've seen this corruption using ext4 but other filesystems are
likely susceptible as well.

More specifically, while multiple zones are necessary to create the
corruption, the corruption may not occur with multiple zones if they
layout in such a way the layout matches what the 'alternate' layout
would have produced. Thus, not all raid0 devices with the 'original'
layout, different size disks and discard enabled will encounter this
corruption.

The 3.14 kernel inadvertently changed the raid0 disk layout for different
size disks. Thus, running a pre-3.14 kernel and post-3.14 kernel on the
same raid0 array could corrupt data. This lead to the creation of the
'original' layout (to match the pre-3.14 layout) and the 'alternate' layout
(to match the post 3.14 layout) in the 5.4 kernel time frame and an option
to tell the kernel which layout to use (since it couldn't be autodetected).
However, when the 'original' layout was added back to 5.4 discard support
for the 'original' layout was not added leading this issue.

I've been able to reliably reproduce the corruption with the following
test case:

1. create raid0 array with different size disks using original layout
2. mkfs
3. mount -o discard
4. create lots of files
5. remove 1/2 the files
6. fstrim -a (or just the mount point for the raid0 array)
7. umount
8. fsck -fn /dev/md0 (spews all sorts of corruptions)

Let's fix this by adding proper discard support to the 'original' layout.
The fix 'maps' the 'original' layout disks to the order in which they are
read/written such that we can compare the disks in the same way that the
current 'alternate' layout does. A 'disk_shift' field is added to
'struct strip_zone'. This could be computed on the fly in
raid0_handle_discard() but by adding this field, we save some computation
in the discard path.

Note we could also potentially fix this by re-ordering the disks in the
zones that follow the first one, and then always read/writing them using
the 'alternate' layout. However, that is seen as a more substantial change,
and we are attempting the least invasive fix at this time to remedy the
corruption.

I've verified the change using the reproducer mentioned above. Typically,
the corruption is seen after less than 3 iterations, while the patch has
run 500+ iterations.

commit 1727fd5015d8f93474148f94e34cda5aa6ad4a43 upstream.

Current code produces a warning as shown below when total characters
in the constituent block device names plus the slashes exceeds 200.
snprintf() returns the number of characters generated from the given
input, which could cause the expression “200 – len” to wrap around
to a large positive number. Fix this by using scnprintf() instead,
which returns the actual number of characters written into the buffer.

<title>md/raid0: Ignore RAID0 layout if the second zone has only one device</title>

commit ea23994edc4169bd90d7a9b5908c6ccefd82fa40 upstream.

The RAID0 layout is irrelevant if all members have the same size so the
array has only one zone. It is *also* irrelevant if the array has two
zones and the second zone has only one device, for example if the array
has two members of different sizes.

So in that case it makes sense to allow assembly even when the layout is
undefined, like what is done when the array has only one zone.

[ Upstream commit 33f2c35a54dfd75ad0e7e86918dcbe4de799a56c ]

Due to a bug introduced in Linux 3.14 we cannot determine the
correctly layout for a multi-zone RAID0 array - there are two
possibilities.

It is possible to tell the kernel which to chose using a module
parameter, but this can be clumsy to use.  It would be best if
the choice were recorded in the metadata.
So add a feature flag for this purpose.
If it is set, then the 'layout' field of the superblock is used
to determine which layout to use.

If this flag is not set, then mddev-&gt;layout gets set to -1,
which causes the module parameter to be required.

<title>block: fix an integer overflow in logical block size</title>

commit ad6bf88a6c19a39fb3b0045d78ea880325dfcf15 upstream.

Logical block size has type unsigned short. That means that it can be at
most 32768. However, there are architectures that can run with 64k pages
(for example arm64) and on these architectures, it may be possible to
create block devices with 64k block size.

For exmaple (run this on an architecture with 64k pages):

Mount will fail with this error because it tries to read the superblock using 2-sector
access:
  device-mapper: writecache: I/O is not aligned, sector 2, size 1024, block size 65536
  EXT4-fs (dm-0): unable to read superblock

This patch changes the logical block size from unsigned short to unsigned
int to avoid the overflow.

[ Upstream commit 3874d73e06c9b9dc15de0b7382fc223986d75571 ]

The message should match the parameter, i.e. raid0.default_layout.

[ Upstream commit c84a1372df929033cb1a0441fb57bd3932f39ac9 ]

If the drives in a RAID0 are not all the same size, the array is
divided into zones.
The first zone covers all drives, to the size of the smallest.
The second zone covers all drives larger than the smallest, up to
the size of the second smallest - etc.

A change in Linux 3.14 unintentionally changed the layout for the
second and subsequent zones.  All the correct data is still stored, but
each chunk may be assigned to a different device than in pre-3.14 kernels.
This can lead to data corruption.

It is not possible to determine what layout to use - it depends which
kernel the data was written by.
So we add a module parameter to allow the old (0) or new (1) layout to be
specified, and refused to assemble an affected array if that parameter is
not set.

<title>md: remove special meaning of -&gt;quiesce(.., 2)</title>

commit b03e0ccb5ab9df3efbe51c87843a1ffbecbafa1f upstream.

The '2' argument means "wake up anything that is waiting".
This is an inelegant part of the design and was added
to help support management of suspend_lo/suspend_hi setting.
Now that suspend_lo/hi is managed in mddev_suspend/resume,
that need is gone.
These is still a couple of places where we call 'quiesce'
with an argument of '2', but they can safely be changed to
call -&gt;quiesce(.., 1); -&gt;quiesce(.., 0) which
achieve the same result at the small cost of pausing IO
briefly.

This removes a small "optimization" from suspend_{hi,lo}_store,
but it isn't clear that optimization served a useful purpose.
The code now is a lot clearer.
