Any file under /proc/net opened more than once leaked the refcounter
on the module it belongs to.
The problem is that module_get is called for each file opening while
module_put is called only when /proc inode is destroyed. So, lets put
module counter if we are dealing with already initialised inode.

In 2.6.25, ramdisk devices show up in /proc/partitions, which is a
behaviour change from the old rd.c. Add GENHD_FL_SUPPRESS_PARTITION_INFO,
which was present in rd.c.
All kernels prior to 2.6.25 weren't displaying ramdisks in
/proc/partitions. Since there are many userspace tools using information
from /proc/partitions some of them may now behave incorrectly (I didn't
tested any though). For example before 2.6.25 /proc/partitions was empty
if no block devices like hard disks and such were detected by kernel. Now
all 16 ramdisks are always visible there. Some software may rely on such
information (I mean, on empty /proc/partitions).
There was quite similar situation back in 2004, and ramdisks were excluded
back from displaying. Thats why I called this a regression (maybe a bit
unfortunate). See this patch for info:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.3-rc2/2.6.3-rc2-mm1/broken-out/nbd-proc-partitions-fix.patch
I also think that someone somewhere (long time ago) excluded ramdisks from
/proc/partitions for good reasons. It is possible that now such new
"feature" is harmless, but I think there are more chances that someone
will say "hey, /proc/partitions has changed, now my software doesn't work"
then "hey where did my new 2.6.25 feature go". nbd devices are also
excluded, maybe for very same (unknown to me) reasons.

__exit_signal() does flush_sigqueue(tsk->pending) outside of ->siglock.
This can race with another thread doing sigqueue_free(), we can free the
same SIGQUEUE_PREALLOC sigqueue twice or corrupt the pending->list.
Note that even sys_exit_group() can trigger this race, not only
sys_timer_delete().
Move the callsite of flush_sigqueue(tsk->pending) under ->siglock.
This patch doesn't touch flush_sigqueue(->shared_pending) below, it is
called when there are no other threads which can play with signals, and
sigqueue_free() can't be used outside of our thread group.

When we get any IO error during a recovery (rebuilding a spare), we abort
the recovery and restart it.
For RAID6 (and multi-drive RAID1) it may not be best to restart at the
beginning: when multiple failures can be tolerated, the recovery may be
able to continue and re-doing all that has already been done doesn't make
sense.
We already have the infrastructure to record where a recovery is up to
and restart from there, but it is not being used properly.
This is because:
- We sometimes abort with MD_RECOVERY_ERR rather than just MD_RECOVERY_INTR,
which causes the recovery not be be checkpointed.
- We remove spares and then re-added them which loses important state
information.
The distinction between MD_RECOVERY_ERR and MD_RECOVERY_INTR really isn't
needed. If there is an error, the relevant drive will be marked as
Faulty, and that is enough to ensure correct handling of the error. So we
first remove MD_RECOVERY_ERR, changing some of the uses of it to
MD_RECOVERY_INTR.
Then we cause the attempt to remove a non-faulty device from an array to
fail (unless recovery is impossible as the array is too degraded). Then
when remove_and_add_spares attempts to remove the devices on which
recovery can continue, it will fail, they will remain in place, and
recovery will continue on them as desired.
Issue: If we are halfway through rebuilding a spare and another drive
fails, and a new spare is immediately available, do we want to:
1/ complete the current rebuild, then go back and rebuild the new spare or
2/ restart the rebuild from the start and rebuild both devices in
parallel.
Both options can be argued for. The code currently takes option 2 as
a/ this requires least code change
b/ this results in a minimally-degraded array in minimal time.

In some configurations, a raid6 resync can be limited by CPU speed
(Calculating P and Q and moving data) rather than by device speed. In
these cases there is nothing to be gained byt serialising resync of arrays
that share a device, and doing the resync in parallel can provide benefit.
So add a sysfs tunable to flag an array as being allowed to resync in
parallel with other arrays that use (a different part of) the same device.

This additional notification to 'array_state' is needed to allow the
monitor application to learn about stop events via sysfs. The
sysfs_notify("sync_action") call that comes at the end of do_md_stop()
(via md_new_event) is insufficient since the 'sync_action' attribute has
been removed by this point.
(Seems like a sysfs-notify-on-removal patch is a better fix. Currently
removal updates the event count but does not wake up waiters)

When an array enters write pending, 'array_state' changes, so we must be
sure to sysfs_notify.
Also, when waiting for user-space to acknowledge 'write-pending' by
marking the metadata as dirty, we don't want to wait for MD_CHANGE_DEVS to
be cleared as that might not happen. So explicity test for the bits that
we are really interested in.

When performing a "recovery" or "check" pass on a RAID1 array, we read
from each device and possible, if there is a difference or a read error,
write back to some devices.
We use the same 'bio' for both read and write, resetting various fields
between the two operations.
We forgot to reset bv_offset and bv_len however. These are often left
unchanged, but in the case where there is an IO error one or two sectors
into a page, they are changed.
This results in correctable errors not being corrected properly. It does
not result in any data corruption.

Last night we had scsi problems and a hardware raid unit was offlined
during heavy i/o. While this happened we got for about 3 minutes a huge
number messages like these
Apr 12 03:36:07 pfs1n14 kernel: [197510.696595] raid5:md7: read error not correctable (sector 2993096568 on sdj2).
I guess the high error rate is responsible for not scheduling other events
- during this time the system was not pingable and in the end also other
devices run into scsi command timeouts causing problems on these unrelated
devices as well.

It is possible to add a write-intent bitmap to an active array, or remove
the bitmap that is there.
When we do with the 'quiesce' the array, which causes make_request to
block in "wait_barrier()".
However we are sampling the value of "mddev->bitmap" before the
wait_barrier call, and using it afterwards. This can result in using a
bitmap structure that has been freed.

Fuse allocates a separate bdi for each filesystem, and registers them
in sysfs with "MAJOR:MINOR" of sb->s_dev (st_dev). This works fine for
anon devices normally used by fuse, but can conflict with an already
registered BDI for "fuseblk" filesystems, where sb->s_dev represents a
real block device. In particularl this happens if a non-partitioned
device is being mounted.
Fix by registering with a different name for "fuseblk" filesystems.

causes both the scsi_device and scsi_target to fire scsi_bus_uevents.
