In commit 070ad7e793dc ("floppy: convert to delayed work and
single-thread wq") the 'fd_timeout' timer was converted to a delayed
work. However, the "del_timer(&fd_timeout)" was lost in the process,
and any previous pending timeouts would stay active when we then
re-queued the timeout.
This resulted in the floppy probe sequence having a (stale) 20s timeout
rather than the intended 3s timeout, and thus made booting with the
floppy driver (but no actual floppy controller) take much longer than it
should.
Of course, there's little reason for most people to compile the floppy
driver into the kernel at all, which is why most people never noticed.
Canceling the delayed work where we used to do the del_timer() fixes the
issue, and makes the floppy probing use the proper new timeout instead.
The three second timeout is still very wasteful, but better than the 20s
one.

Fix a regression introduced by 7eaceaccab5f40 ("block: remove per-queue
plugging"). In that patch, Jens removed the whole mm_unplug_device()
function, which used to be the trigger to make umem start to work.
We need to implement unplugging to make umem start to work, or I/O will
never be triggered.

We must not look at mdev->actlog, unless we have a get_ldev() reference.
It also does not make much sense to try to disconnect or pull-ahead of
the peer, if we don't have good local data.
Only even consider congestion policies, if our local disk is D_UP_TO_DATE.

If a read is aborted due to force-detach of a supposedly unresponsive
local backing device, and retried on the peer, it can happen that the
local request later still completes (hopefully with an error).
As it may already have been completed to upper layers meanwhile,
it must not be retried again now.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
...
[<d1e17561>] ? _drbd_bm_set_bits+0x151/0x240 [drbd]
[<d1e236f8>] ? receive_bitmap+0x4f8/0xbc0 [drbd]
This fixes an off-by-one error in the receive_bitmap() path,
if run-length encoded bitmap transfer is enabled.
If the bitmap is an exact multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which means the visible
capacity of the drbd device is an exact multiple of 128 MiB (for 4k page
size), and bitmap compression (use-rle) is enabled (which became default
with 8.4), and the very last bit is dirty and reported in an rle
comressed bitmap packet, we ended up trying to kmap_atomic a page pointer
that does not exist (bitmap->bm_pages[last index + 1]).
bug introduced by:
Date: Fri Jul 24 15:33:24 2009 +0200
set bits: optimize for complete last word, fix off-by-one-word corner case
made effective by:
Date: Thu Dec 16 00:32:38 2010 +0100
drbd: get rid of unused debug code
Long time ago, we had paranoia code in the bitmap that allocated one
extra word, assigned a magic value, and checked on every occasion that
the magic value was still unchanged.
That debug code is unused, the extra long word complicates code a bit.
Get rid of it.
No-one triggered this bug in the last few years, because a large subset
of our userbase is unaffected:
* typically the last few blocks of a device are not modified
frequently, and remain unset
* use-rle was disabled by default in drbd < 8.4
* those with slightly "odd" device sizes, or
* drbd internal meta data (which will skew the device size slightly,
thus makes it harder to have a bug relevant device size)

Part of the ring structure is the 'id' field which is under
control of the frontend. The frontend stamps it with "some"
value (this some in this implementation being a value less
than BLK_RING_SIZE), and when it gets a response expects
said value to be in the response structure. We have a check
for the id field when spolling new requests but not when
de-spolling responses.
We also add an extra check in add_id_to_freelist to make
sure that the 'struct request' was not NULL - as we cannot
pass a NULL to __blk_end_request_all, otherwise that crashes
(and all the operations that the response is dealing with
end up with __blk_end_request_all).
Lastly we also print the name of the operation that failed.

We weren't copying the id field so when we sent the response
back to the frontend (especially with a 64-bit host and 32-bit
guest), we ended up using a random value. This lead to the
frontend crashing as it would try to pass to __blk_end_request_all
a NULL 'struct request' (b/c it would use the 'id' to find the
proper 'struct request' in its shadow array) and end up crashing:

If we reset the virtio-blk device before the requests already dispatched
to the virtio-blk driver from the block layer are finised, we will stuck
in blk_cleanup_queue() and the remove will fail.
blk_cleanup_queue() calls blk_drain_queue() to drain all requests queued
before DEAD marking. However it will never success if the device is
already stopped. We'll have q->in_flight[] > 0, so the drain will not
finish.
How to reproduce the race:
1. hot-plug a virtio-blk device
2. keep reading/writing the device in guest
3. hot-unplug while the device is busy serving I/O
Test:
~1000 rounds of hot-plug/hot-unplug test passed with this patch.
Changes in v3:
- Drop blk_abort_queue and blk_abort_request
- Use __blk_end_request_all to complete request dispatched to driver
Changes in v2:
- Drop req_in_flight
- Use virtqueue_detach_unused_buf to get request dispatched to driver

configurable timeout for backing devices by the new disk-timeout option
And huge number of bug fixes:
* Fixed a write ordering problem on SyncTarget nodes for a write
to a block that gets resynced at the same time. The bug can
only be triggered with a device that has a firmware that
actually reorders writes to the same block
* Fixed a race between disconnect and receive_state, that could cause
a IO lockup
* Fixed resend/resubmit for requests with disk or network timeout
* Make sure that hard state changed do not disturb the connection
establishing process (I.e. detach due to an IO error). When the
bug was triggered it caused a retry in the connect process
* Postpone soft state changes to no disturb the connection
establishing process (I.e. becoming primary). When the bug
was triggered it could cause both nodes going into SyncSource state
* Fixed a refcount leak that could cause failures when trying to
unload a protocol family modules, that was used by DRBD
* Dedicated page pool for meta data IOs
* Deny normal detach (as opposed to --forced) if the user tries
to detach from the last UpToDate disk in the resource
* Fixed a possible protocol error that could be caused by
"unusual" BIOs.
* Enforce the disk-timeout option also on meta-data IO operations
* Implemented stable bitmap pages when we do a full write out of
the bitmap
* Fixed a rare compatibility issue with DRBD's older than 8.3.7
when negotiating the bio_size
* Fixed a rare race condition where an empty resync could stall with
if pause/unpause events happen in parallel
* Made the re-establishing of connections quicker, if it got a broken pipe
once. Previously there was a bug in the code caused it to waste the first
successful established connection after a broken pipe event.

Block layer now handles O_EXCL in a generic way for block devices.
The semantics is however different for floppy and all other block devices,
as floppy driver contains its own O_EXCL handling.
The semantics for all-but-floppy bdevs is "there can be at most one O_EXCL
open of this file", while for floppy bdev the semantics is "if someone has
the bdev open with O_EXCL, noone else can open it".
There is actual userspace-observable change in behavior because of this
since commit e525fd89d380c ("block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive
access") -- on kernels containing this commit, mount of /dev/fd0 causes
the fd0 block device be claimed with _EXCL, preventing subsequent
open(/dev/fd0).
Bring things back into shape, i.e. make it possible, analogically to
other block devices, to mount the floppy and open() it afterwards --
remove the floppy-specific handling and let the generic bdev code O_EXCL
handling take over.

There are several races in floppy driver between bottom half
(scheduled_work) and timers (fd_timeout, fd_timer). Due to slowness
of the actual floppy devices, those races are never (at least to my
knowledge) triggered on a bare floppy metal. However on virtualized
(emulated) floppy drives, which are of course magnitudes faster
than the real ones, these races trigger reliably. They usually exhibit
themselves as NULL pointer dereferences during DMA setup, such as

but other instances can be easily seen as well. This can be observed at least under
VMWare, VirtualBox and KVM.
This patch converts all the timers and bottom halfs to be processed in a single
workqueue. This aproach has been already discussed back in 2010 if I remember
correctly, and Acked by Linus [1], but it then never made it to the tree.
This all is based on original idea and code of Stephen Hemminger. I have
ported original Stepen's code to the current state of the floppy driver, and
performed quite some testing (on real hardware), which didn't reveal any issues
(this includes not only writing and reading data, but also formatting
(unfortunately I didn't find any Double-Density disks any more)). Ability to
handle errors properly (supplying known bad floppies) has also been verified.

The blkdev major must be released upon exit, or else the module can't
attach to devices using the same majors upon being loaded again. Also
avoid leaking the minor tracking bitmap.

- devices beyond xvdzz didn't get proper names assigned at all
- extended devices with minors not representable within the kernel's
major/minor bit split spilled into foreign majors

The variables 'StatusProcEntry' and 'UserCommandProcEntry' are
assigned to once and then never used. This patch gets rid of the
variables.
While I was there I also fixed the indentation of the function to use
tabs rather than spaces for the lines that did not already do so.

In 2009 Philip Reiser notied that a few users of netlink connector
interface needed a capability check and added the idiom
cap_raised(nsp->eff_cap, CAP_SYS_ADMIN) to a few of them, on the premise
that netlink was asynchronous.
In 2011 Patrick McHardy noticed we were being silly because netlink is
synchronous and removed eff_cap from the netlink_skb_params and changed
the idiom to cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN).
Looking at those spots with a fresh eye we should be calling
capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN). The only reason I can see for not calling capable
is that it once appeared we were not in the same task as the caller which
would have made calling capable() impossible.
In the initial user_namespace the only difference between between
cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN) and capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) are a
few sanity checks and the fact that capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) sets
PF_SUPERPRIV if we use the capability.
Since we are going to be using root privilege setting PF_SUPERPRIV seems
the right thing to do.
The motivation for this that patch is that in a child user namespace
cap_raised(current_cap(),...) tests your capabilities with respect to that
child user namespace not capabilities in the initial user namespace and
thus will allow processes that should be unprivielged to use the kernel
services that are only protected with cap_raised(current_cap(),..).
To fix possible user_namespace issues and to just clean up the code
replace cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN) with
capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

THIS_MODULE is NULL only when drbd is compiled as built-in,
so the #ifdef CONFIG_MODULES should be #ifdef MODULE instead.
This fixes the warning:
drivers/block/drbd/drbd_main.c: In function ‘drbd_buildtag’:
drivers/block/drbd/drbd_main.c:4187:24: warning: the comparison will always evaluate as ‘true’ for the address of ‘__this_module’ will never be NULL [-Waddress]
