dm: update target status functions to support IMA measurement
For device mapper targets to take advantage of IMA's measurement
capabilities, the status functions for the individual targets need to be
updated to handle the status_type_t case for value STATUSTYPE_IMA.
Update status functions for the following target types, to log their
respective attributes to be measured using IMA.
01. cache
02. crypt
03. integrity
04. linear
05. mirror
06. multipath
07. raid
08. snapshot
09. striped
10. verity
For rest of the targets, handle the STATUSTYPE_IMA case by setting the
measurement buffer to NULL.
For IMA to measure the data on a given system, the IMA policy on the
system needs to be updated to have the following line, and the system
needs to be restarted for the measurements to take effect.
/etc/ima/ima-policy
measure func=CRITICAL_DATA label=device-mapper template=ima-buf
The measurements will be reflected in the IMA logs, which are located at:
/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/binary_runtime_measurements
These IMA logs can later be consumed by various attestation clients
running on the system, and send them to external services for attesting
the system.
The DM target data measured by IMA subsystem can alternatively
be queried from userspace by setting DM_IMA_MEASUREMENT_FLAG with
DM_TABLE_STATUS_CMD.

The crash can be reproduced by running the lvm2 testsuite test
lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh for several minutes, e.g.:
while :; do make check T=shell/lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh; done
The crash happens in this call chain:
do_waker -> policy_tick -> smq_tick -> end_hotspot_period -> clear_bitset
-> memset -> __memset -- which accesses an invalid pointer in the vmalloc
area.
The work entry on the workqueue is executed even after the bitmap was
freed. The problem is that cancel_delayed_work doesn't wait for the
running work item to finish, so the work item can continue running and
re-submitting itself even after cache_postsuspend. In order to make sure
that the work item won't be running, we must use cancel_delayed_work_sync.
Also, change flush_workqueue to drain_workqueue, so that if some work item
submits itself or another work item, we are properly waiting for both of
them.

GFP_NOWAIT allocation can fail anytime - it doesn't wait for memory being
available and it fails if the mempool is exhausted and there is not enough
memory.
If we go down this path:
map_bio -> mg_start -> alloc_migration -> mempool_alloc(GFP_NOWAIT)
we can see that map_bio() doesn't check the return value of mg_start(),
and the bio is leaked.
If we go down this path:
map_bio -> mg_start -> mg_lock_writes -> alloc_prison_cell ->
dm_bio_prison_alloc_cell_v2 -> mempool_alloc(GFP_NOWAIT) ->
mg_lock_writes -> mg_complete
the bio is ended with an error - it is unacceptable because it could
cause filesystem corruption if the machine ran out of memory
temporarily.
Change GFP_NOWAIT to GFP_NOIO, so that the mempool code will properly
wait until memory becomes available. mempool_alloc with GFP_NOIO can't
fail, so remove the code paths that deal with allocation failure.

DM cache now defaults to passing discards down to the origin device.
User may disable this using the "no_discard_passdown" feature when
creating the cache device.
If the cache's underlying origin device doesn't support discards then
passdown is disabled (with warning). Similarly, if the underlying
origin device's max_discard_sectors is less than a cache block discard
passdown will be disabled (this is required because sizing of the cache
internal discard bitset depends on it).

A reload of the cache's DM table is needed during resize because
otherwise a crash will occur when attempting to access smq policy
entries associated with the portion of the cache that was recently
extended.
The reason is cache-size based data structures in the policy will not be
resized, the only way to safely extend the cache is to allow for a
proper cache policy initialization that occurs when the cache table is
loaded. For example the smq policy's space_init(), init_allocator(),
calc_hotspot_params() must be sized based on the extended cache size.
The fix for this is to disallow cache resizes of this pattern:
1) suspend "cache" target's device
2) resize the fast device used for the cache
3) resume "cache" target's device
Instead, the last step must be a full reload of the cache's DM table.

Now that the writethrough code is much simpler there is no need to track

Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
Discontinue issuing writethrough write IO in series to the origin and
then cache.
Use bio_clone_fast() to create a new origin clone bio that will be
mapped to the origin device and then bio_chain() it to the bio that gets
remapped to the cache device. The origin clone bio does _not_ have a
copy of the per_bio_data -- as such check_if_tick_bio_needed() will not
be called.
The cache bio (parent bio) will not complete until the origin bio has
completed -- this fulfills bio_clone_fast()'s requirements as well as
the requirement to not complete the original IO until the write IO has
completed to both the origin and cache device.
Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
When a DM cache in writeback mode moves data between the slow and fast
device it can often avoid a copy if the triggering bio either:
i) covers the whole block (no point copying if we're about to overwrite it)
ii) the migration is a promotion and the origin block is currently discarded
Prior to this fix there was a race with case (ii). The discard status
was checked with a shared lock held (rather than exclusive). This meant
another bio could run in parallel and write data to the origin, removing
the discard state. After the promotion the parallel write would have
been lost.
With this fix the discard status is re-checked once the exclusive lock
has been aquired. If the block is no longer discarded it falls back to
the slower full copy path.

- Fix DM integrity to use init_completion
- A couple DM log-writes target fixes
- Simplify DAX flushing by eliminating the unnecessary flush
abstraction that was stood up for DM's use.
* tag 'for-4.14/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm:
dax: remove the pmem_dax_ops->flush abstraction
dm integrity: use init_completion instead of COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK
dm integrity: make blk_integrity_profile structure const
dm integrity: do not check integrity for failed read operations
dm log writes: fix >512b sectorsize support
dm log writes: don't use all the cpu while waiting to log blocks
dm ioctl: constify ioctl lookup table
dm: constify argument arrays
dm integrity: count and display checksum failures
dm integrity: optimize writing dm-bufio buffers that are partially changed
dm rq: do not update rq partially in each ending bio
dm rq: make dm-sq requeuing behavior consistent with dm-mq behavior
dm mpath: complain about unsupported __multipath_map_bio() return values
dm mpath: avoid that building with W=1 causes gcc 7 to complain about fall-through
The arrays of 'struct dm_arg' are never modified by the device-mapper
core, so constify them so that they are placed in .rodata.
(Exception: the args array in dm-raid cannot be constified because it is
allocated on the stack and modified.)

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
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.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.
