bcache uses a Proportion-Differentiation Controller algorithm to control
writeback rate to cached devices. In the PD controller algorithm, dirty
stripes of thin flash device should not be counted in, because flash only
volumes never write back dirty data.
Currently dirty stripe counter for thin flash device is not initialized
when the thin flash device starts. Which means the following calculation
in PD controller will reference an undefined dirty stripes number, and
all cached devices attached to the same cache set where the thin flash
device lies on may have an inaccurate writeback rate.
This patch calles bch_sectors_dirty_init() in flash_dev_run(), to
correctly initialize dirty stripe counter when the thin flash device
starts to run. This patch also does following parameter data type change,
-void bch_sectors_dirty_init(struct cached_dev *dc);
+void bch_sectors_dirty_init(struct bcache_device *);
to call this function conveniently in flash_dev_run().

Most importantly, solve a crash where %llu was used to format signed

writeback_rate_debug, as only 20 bytes were allocated for this and
%llu writes 20 characters plus a null.
Always use the units mechanism rather than having different output
paths for simplicity.
Also, correct problems with display output where 1.10 was a larger
number than 1.09, by multiplying by 10 and then dividing by 1024 instead
of dividing by 100. (Remainders of >= 1000 would print as .10).
Minor changes: Always display the decimal point instead of trying to
omit it based on number of digits shown. Decide what units to use
based on 1000 as a threshold, not 1024 (in other words, always print
at most 3 digits before the decimal point).

In currently, we only alloc 6 open buckets for each cache set,
but in usually, we always attach about 10 or so backend devices for
each cache set, and the each bcache device are always accessed by
about 10 or so threads in top application layer. So 6 open buckets
are too few, It has led to that each of the same thread write data
to different buckets, which would cause low efficiency write-back,
and also cause buckets inefficient, and would be Very easy to run
out of.
I add debug message in bch_open_buckets_alloc() to print alloc bucket
info, and test with ten bcache devices with a cache set, and each
bcache device is accessed by ten threads.
From the debug message, we can see that, after the modification, One
bucket is more likely to assign to the same thread, and the data from
the same thread are more likely to write the same bucket. Usually the
same thread always write/read the same backend device, so it is good
for write-back and also promote the usage efficiency of buckets.

__update_write_rate() uses a Proportion-Differentiation Controller
algorithm to control writeback rate. A dirty target number is used in
this PD controller to control writeback rate. A larger target number
will make the writeback rate smaller, on the versus, a smaller target
number will make the writeback rate larger.
bcache uses the following steps to calculate the target number,
1) cache_sectors = all-buckets-of-cache-set * buckets-size
2) cache_dirty_target = cache_sectors * cached-device-writeback_percent
3) target = cache_dirty_target *
(sectors-of-cached-device/sectors-of-all-cached-devices-of-this-cache-set)
The calculation at step 1) for cache_sectors is incorrect, which does
not consider dirty blocks occupied by flash only volume.
A flash only volume can be took as a bcache device without cached
device. All data sectors allocated for it are persistent on cache device
and marked dirty, they are not touched by bcache writeback and garbage
collection code. So data blocks of flash only volume should be ignore
when calculating cache_sectors of cache set.
Current code does not subtract dirty sectors of flash only volume, which
results a larger target number from the above 3 steps. And in sequence
the cache device's writeback rate is smaller then a correct value,
writeback speed is slower on all cached devices.
This patch fixes the incorrect slower writeback rate by subtracting
dirty sectors of flash only volumes in __update_writeback_rate().

In release_stripe_plug(), if a stripe_head has its STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST
set, it indicates that this stripe_head is already in the raid5_plug_cb
list and release_stripe() would be called instead to drop a reference
count. Otherwise, the STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST bit would be set for this
stripe_head and it will get queued into the raid5_plug_cb list.
Since break_stripe_batch_list() did not preserve STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST,
A stripe could be re-added to plug list while it is still on that list
in the following situation. If stripe_head A is added to another
stripe_head B's batch list, in this case A will have its
batch_head != NULL and be added into the plug list. After that,
stripe_head B gets handled and called break_stripe_batch_list() to
reset all the batched stripe_head(including A which is still on
the plug list)'s state and reset their batch_head to NULL.
Before the plug list gets processed, if there is another write request
comes in and get stripe_head A, A will have its batch_head == NULL
(cleared by calling break_stripe_batch_list() on B) and be added to
plug list once again.

-->test_and_clear_bit(STRIPE_BATCH_READY, sh3)
--->return 0 as sh->batch == NULL
-> sh3->batch_head = sh1
-> unlock (sh2, sh3)
In CPU1, handle_stripe will continue handle sh3 even it's in batch stripe list
of sh1. By moving sh3->batch_head assignment in to batch_lock, we make it
impossible to clear STRIPE_BATCH_READY before batch_head is set.

bitmap_resize() does not work for file-backed bitmaps.
The buffer_heads are allocated and initialized when
the bitmap is read from the file, but resize doesn't
read from the file, it loads from the internal bitmap.
When it comes time to write the new bitmap, the bh is
non-existent and we crash.
The common case when growing an array involves making the array larger,
and that normally means making the bitmap larger. Doing
that inside the kernel is possible, but would need more code.
It is probably easier to require people who use file-backed
bitmaps to remove them and re-add after a reshape.
So this patch disables the resizing of arrays which have
file-backed bitmaps. This is better than crashing.

We don't need to update the original dm request partially when ending
each cloned bio: just update original dm request once when the whole
cloned request is finished. This still allows full support for partial
completion because a new 'completed' counter accounts for incremental
progress as the clone bios complete.
Partial request update can be a bit expensive, so we should try to avoid
it, especially because it is run in softirq context.
Avoiding all the partial request updates fixes both hard lockup and
soft lockups that were easily reproduced while running Laurence's
test[1] on IB/SRP.
BTW, after d4acf3650c ("block: Make blk_mq_delay_kick_requeue_list()

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The

is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

are counted as only one pending_stripe. Flag has_flush_payload is
added to show whether the io unit has flush_payload;
2. In r5l_log_endio(), check flags has_null_flush and
has_flush_payload with log->io_list_lock held. After the lock

if "flag is set" or "race is possible"
"flag is set" is trivially "mddev->in_sync".
"race is possible" should be tested by "mddev->sync_checkers".
If sync_checkers is 0, then there can be no race. set_in_sync() will
wait in percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_sync() for an RCU grace period,
and as md_write_start() holds the rcu_read_lock(), set_in_sync() will
be sure ot see the update to writes_pending.
If sync_checkers is > 0, there could be race. If md_write_start()
happened entirely between
if (!mddev->in_sync &&
percpu_ref_is_zero(&mddev->writes_pending)) {
and
mddev->in_sync = 1;
in set_in_sync(), then it would not see that is_sync had been set,
and set_in_sync() would not see that writes_pending had been
incremented.
This bug means that in_sync is sometimes not set when it should be.
Consequently there is a small chance that the array will be marked as
"clean" when in fact it is inconsistent.
