9 * Each stripe contains one buffer per disc. Each buffer can be in
10 * one of a number of states stored in "flags". Changes between
11 * these states happen *almost* exclusively under a per-stripe
12 * spinlock. Some very specific changes can happen in bi_end_io, and
13 * these are not protected by the spin lock.
15 * The flag bits that are used to represent these states are:
16 * R5_UPTODATE and R5_LOCKED
18 * State Empty == !UPTODATE, !LOCK
19 * We have no data, and there is no active request
20 * State Want == !UPTODATE, LOCK
21 * A read request is being submitted for this block
22 * State Dirty == UPTODATE, LOCK
23 * Some new data is in this buffer, and it is being written out
24 * State Clean == UPTODATE, !LOCK
25 * We have valid data which is the same as on disc
27 * The possible state transitions are:
29 * Empty -> Want - on read or write to get old data for parity calc
30 * Empty -> Dirty - on compute_parity to satisfy write/sync request.(RECONSTRUCT_WRITE)
31 * Empty -> Clean - on compute_block when computing a block for failed drive
32 * Want -> Empty - on failed read
33 * Want -> Clean - on successful completion of read request
34 * Dirty -> Clean - on successful completion of write request
35 * Dirty -> Clean - on failed write
36 * Clean -> Dirty - on compute_parity to satisfy write/sync (RECONSTRUCT or RMW)
38 * The Want->Empty, Want->Clean, Dirty->Clean, transitions
39 * all happen in b_end_io at interrupt time.
40 * Each sets the Uptodate bit before releasing the Lock bit.
41 * This leaves one multi-stage transition:
42 * Want->Dirty->Clean
43 * This is safe because thinking that a Clean buffer is actually dirty
44 * will at worst delay some action, and the stripe will be scheduled
45 * for attention after the transition is complete.
47 * There is one possibility that is not covered by these states. That
48 * is if one drive has failed and there is a spare being rebuilt. We
49 * can't distinguish between a clean block that has been generated
50 * from parity calculations, and a clean block that has been
51 * successfully written to the spare ( or to parity when resyncing).
52 * To distingush these states we have a stripe bit STRIPE_INSYNC that
53 * is set whenever a write is scheduled to the spare, or to the parity
54 * disc if there is no spare. A sync request clears this bit, and
55 * when we find it set with no buffers locked, we know the sync is
56 * complete.
58 * Buffers for the md device that arrive via make_request are attached
59 * to the appropriate stripe in one of two lists linked on b_reqnext.
60 * One list (bh_read) for read requests, one (bh_write) for write.
61 * There should never be more than one buffer on the two lists
62 * together, but we are not guaranteed of that so we allow for more.
64 * If a buffer is on the read list when the associated cache buffer is
65 * Uptodate, the data is copied into the read buffer and it's b_end_io
66 * routine is called. This may happen in the end_request routine only
67 * if the buffer has just successfully been read. end_request should
68 * remove the buffers from the list and then set the Uptodate bit on
69 * the buffer. Other threads may do this only if they first check
70 * that the Uptodate bit is set. Once they have checked that they may
71 * take buffers off the read queue.
73 * When a buffer on the write list is committed for write it is copied
74 * into the cache buffer, which is then marked dirty, and moved onto a
75 * third list, the written list (bh_written). Once both the parity
76 * block and the cached buffer are successfully written, any buffer on
77 * a written list can be returned with b_end_io.
79 * The write list and read list both act as fifos. The read list is
80 * protected by the device_lock. The write and written lists are
81 * protected by the stripe lock. The device_lock, which can be
82 * claimed while the stipe lock is held, is only for list
83 * manipulations and will only be held for a very short time. It can
84 * be claimed from interrupts.
87 * Stripes in the stripe cache can be on one of two lists (or on
88 * neither). The "inactive_list" contains stripes which are not
89 * currently being used for any request. They can freely be reused
90 * for another stripe. The "handle_list" contains stripes that need
91 * to be handled in some way. Both of these are fifo queues. Each
92 * stripe is also (potentially) linked to a hash bucket in the hash
93 * table so that it can be found by sector number. Stripes that are
94 * not hashed must be on the inactive_list, and will normally be at
95 * the front. All stripes start life this way.
97 * The inactive_list, handle_list and hash bucket lists are all protected by the
98 * device_lock.
99 * - stripes on the inactive_list never have their stripe_lock held.
100 * - stripes have a reference counter. If count==0, they are on a list.
101 * - If a stripe might need handling, STRIPE_HANDLE is set.
102 * - When refcount reaches zero, then if STRIPE_HANDLE it is put on
103 * handle_list else inactive_list
105 * This, combined with the fact that STRIPE_HANDLE is only ever
106 * cleared while a stripe has a non-zero count means that if the
107 * refcount is 0 and STRIPE_HANDLE is set, then it is on the
108 * handle_list and if recount is 0 and STRIPE_HANDLE is not set, then
109 * the stripe is on inactive_list.
111 * The possible transitions are:
112 * activate an unhashed/inactive stripe (get_active_stripe())
113 * lockdev check-hash unlink-stripe cnt++ clean-stripe hash-stripe unlockdev
114 * activate a hashed, possibly active stripe (get_active_stripe())
115 * lockdev check-hash if(!cnt++)unlink-stripe unlockdev
116 * attach a request to an active stripe (add_stripe_bh())
117 * lockdev attach-buffer unlockdev
118 * handle a stripe (handle_stripe())
119 * lockstripe clrSTRIPE_HANDLE ... (lockdev check-buffers unlockdev) .. change-state .. record io needed unlockstripe schedule io
120 * release an active stripe (release_stripe())
121 * lockdev if (!--cnt) { if STRIPE_HANDLE, add to handle_list else add to inactive-list } unlockdev
123 * The refcount counts each thread that have activated the stripe,
124 * plus raid5d if it is handling it, plus one for each active request
125 * on a cached buffer.

176 * Plugging:
178 * To improve write throughput, we need to delay the handling of some
179 * stripes until there has been a chance that several write requests
180 * for the one stripe have all been collected.
181 * In particular, any write request that would require pre-reading
182 * is put on a "delayed" queue until there are no stripes currently
183 * in a pre-read phase. Further, if the "delayed" queue is empty when
184 * a stripe is put on it then we "plug" the queue and do not process it
185 * until an unplug call is made. (the unplug_io_fn() is called).
187 * When preread is initiated on a stripe, we set PREREAD_ACTIVE and add
188 * it to the count of prereading stripes.
189 * When write is initiated, or the stripe refcnt == 0 (just in case) we
190 * clear the PREREAD_ACTIVE flag and decrement the count
191 * Whenever the delayed queue is empty and the device is not plugged, we
192 * move any strips from delayed to handle and clear the DELAYED flag and set PREREAD_ACTIVE.
193 * In stripe_handle, if we find pre-reading is necessary, we do it if
194 * PREREAD_ACTIVE is set, else we set DELAYED which will send it to the delayed queue.
195 * HANDLE gets cleared if stripe_handle leave nothing locked.
