Switch the thin pool to read-only mode when dm_thin_insert_block() fails
since there is little reason to expect the cause of the failure to be
resolved without further action by user space.

This issue was noticed with the device-mapper-test-suite using:
dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n /exhausting_metadata_space_causes_fail_mode/

The quantity of errors logged in this case must be reduced.

Commit 2fc48021

 ("dm persistent
metadata: add space map threshold callback") introduced a regression
to the metadata block allocation path that resulted in errors being
ignored.  This regression was uncovered by running the following
device-mapper-test-suite test:
dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n /exhausting_metadata_space_causes_fail_mode/

The ignored error codes in sm_metadata_new_block() could crash the
kernel through use of either the dm-thin or dm-cache targets, e.g.:

device-mapper: thin: 253:4: reached low water mark for metadata device: sending event.

There is a possible leak of snapshot space in case of crash.

The reason for space leaking is that chunks in the snapshot device are
allocated sequentially, but they are finished (and stored in the metadata)
out of order, depending on the order in which copying finished.

For example, supposed that the metadata contains the following records
SUPERBLOCK
METADATA (blocks 0 ... 250)
DATA 0
DATA 1
DATA 2
...
DATA 250

Now suppose that you allocate 10 new data blocks 251-260. Suppose that
copying of these blocks finish out of order (block 260 finished first
and the block 251 finished last). Now, the snapshot device looks like
this:
SUPERBLOCK
METADATA (blocks 0 ... 250, 260, 259, 258, 257, 256)
DATA 0
DATA 1
DATA 2
...
DATA 250
DATA 251
DATA 252
DATA 253
DATA 254
DATA 255
METADATA (blocks 255, 254, 253, 252, 251)
DATA 256
DATA 257
DATA 258
DATA 259
DATA 260

Now, if the machine crashes after writing the first metadata block but
before writing the second metadata block, the space for areas DATA 250-255
is leaked, it contains no valid data and it will never be used in the
future.

This patch makes dm-snapshot complete exceptions in the same order they
were allocated, thus fixing this bug.

Note: when backporting this patch to the stable kernel, change the version
field in the following way:
* if version in the stable kernel is {1, 11, 1}, change it to {1, 12, 0}
* if version in the stable kernel is {1, 10, 0} or {1, 10, 1}, change it
  to {1, 10, 2}
Userspace reads the version to determine if the bug was fixed, so the
version change is needed.

Rather than storing the cblock in each cache entry, we allocate all

Saves 4 bytes of memory per cache block.  In addition, this gives us an
easy way of looking up cache entries by cblock.

We no longer need to keep an explicit bitset to track which cblocks
have been allocated.  And no searching is needed to find free cblocks.

"Passthrough" is a dm-cache operating mode (like writethrough or
writeback) which is intended to be used when the cache contents are not
known to be coherent with the origin device.  It behaves as follows:

* All reads are served from the origin device (all reads miss the cache)
* All writes are forwarded to the origin device; additionally, write
  hits cause cache block invalidates

This mode decouples cache coherency checks from cache device creation,
largely to avoid having to perform coherency checks while booting.  Boot
scripts can create cache devices in passthrough mode and put them into
service (mount cached filesystems, for example) without having to worry
about coherency.  Coherency that exists is maintained, although the
cache will gradually cool as writes take place.

Later, applications can perform coherency checks, the nature of which
will depend on the type of the underlying storage.  If coherency can be
verified, the cache device can be transitioned to writet...

This patch allows the removal of an open device to be deferred until
it is closed.  (Previously such a removal attempt would fail.)

The deferred remove functionality is enabled by setting the flag
DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE in the ioctl structure on DM_DEV_REMOVE or
DM_REMOVE_ALL ioctl.

On return from DM_DEV_REMOVE, the flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE indicates if
the device was removed immediately or flagged to be removed on close -
if the flag is clear, the device was removed.

On return from DM_DEV_STATUS and other ioctls, the flag
DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE is set if the device is scheduled to be removed on
closure.

A device that is scheduled to be deleted can be revived using the
message "@cancel_deferred_remove". This message clears the
DMF_DEFERRED_REMOVE flag so that the device won't be deleted on close.

dm-crypt can already activate TCRYPT (TrueCrypt compatible) containers
in LRW or XTS block encryption mode.

TCRYPT containers prior to version 4.1 use CBC mode with some additional
tweaks, this patch adds support for these containers.

This new mode is implemented using special IV generator named TCW
(TrueCrypt IV with whitening).  TCW IV only supports containers that are
encrypted with one cipher (Tested with AES, Twofish, Serpent, CAST5 and
TripleDES).

While this mode is legacy and is known to be vulnerable to some
watermarking attacks (e.g. revealing of hidden disk existence) it can
still be useful to activate old containers without using 3rd party
software or for independent forensic analysis of such containers.

(Both the userspace and kernel code is an independent implementation
based on the format documentation and it completely avoids use of
original source code.)

The TCW IV generator uses two additional keys: Kw (whitening seed, size
is always 16 bytes - TCW_WHITENING_SIZE) and Kiv (IV seed, size is
always the IV size of the selected cipher).  These keys are concatenated
at the end of the main encryption key provided in mapping table.

While whitening is completely independent from IV, it is implemented
inside IV generator for simplification.

The whitening value is always 16 bytes long and is calculated per sector
from provided Kw as initial seed, xored with sector number and mixed
with CRC32 algorithm.  Resulting value is xored with ciphertext sector
content.

IV is calculated from the provided Kiv as initial IV seed and xored with
sector number.

Detailed calculation can be found in the Truecrypt documentation for
version < 4.1 and will also be described on dm-crypt site, see:
http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/wiki/DMCrypt

The experimental support for activation of these containers is already
present in git devel brach of cryptsetup.

Some encryption modes use extra keys (e.g. loopAES has IV seed) which
are not used in block cipher initialization but are part of key string
in table constructor.

This patch adds an additional field which describes the length of the
extra key(s) and substracts it before real key encryption setting.

The key_size always includes the size, in bytes, of the key provided
in mapping table.

The key_parts describes how many parts (usually keys) are contained in
the whole key buffer.  And key_extra_size contains size in bytes of
additional keys part (this number of bytes must be subtracted because it
is processed by the IV generator).

| K1 | K2 | .... | K64 |      Kiv       |
|----------- key_size ----------------- |
|                      |-key_extra_size-|
|     [64 keys]        |  [1 key]       | => key_parts = 65

Example where key string contains main key K, whitening key
Kw and IV seed Kiv:

|     K       |   Kiv   |       Kw      |
|--------------- key_size --------------|
|             |-----key_extra_size------|
|  [1 key]    | [1 key] |     [1 key]   | => key_parts = 3

Because key_extra_size is calculated during IV mode setting, key
initialization is moved after this step.

For now, this change has no effect to supported modes (thanks to ilog2
rounding) but it is required by the following patch.

Also, fix a sparse warning in crypt_iv_lmk_one().

When pg_init is running no I/O can be submitted to the underlying
devices, as the path priority etc might change.  When using queue_io for
this, requests will be piling up within multipath as the block I/O
scheduler just sees a _very fast_ device.  All of this queued I/O has to
be resubmitted from within multipathing once pg_init is done.

This approach has the problem that it's virtually impossible to
abort I/O when pg_init is running, and we're adding heavy load
to the devices after pg_init since all of the queued I/O needs to be
resubmitted _before_ any requests can be pulled off of the request queue
and normal operation continues.

This patch will requeue the I/O that triggers the pg_init call, and
return 'busy' when pg_init is in progress.  With these changes the block
I/O scheduler will stop submitting I/O during pg_init, resulting in a
quicker path switch and less I/O pressure (and memory consumption) after
pg_init.

Whenever multipath_dtr() is happening we must prevent queueing any
further path activation work.  Implement this by adding a new
'pg_init_disabled' flag to the multipath structure that denotes future
path activation work should be skipped if it is set.  By disabling
pg_init and then re-enabling in flush_multipath_work() we also avoid the
potential for pg_init to be initiated while suspending an mpath device.

Without this patch a race condition exists that may result in a kernel
panic:

1) If after pg_init_done() decrements pg_init_in_progress to 0, a call
   to wait_for_pg_init_completion() assumes there are no more pending path
   management commands.
2) If pg_init_required is set by pg_init_done(), due to retryable
   mode_select errors, then process_queued_ios() will again queue the
   path activation work.
3) If free_multipath() completes before activate_path() work is called a

On the other hand, dm-switch needs to process bulk data using messages
so excessive use of GFP_NOIO could cause trouble.

The patch also lowers the default number of arguments from 64 to 8, so
that there is smaller load on GFP_NOIO allocations.

  watchdog: sunxi: Fix section mismatch
  watchdog: kempld_wdt: Fix bit mask definition
  watchdog: ts72xx_wdt: locking bug in ioctl

This driver has a section mismatch, for probe and remove functions,
leading to the following warning during the compilation.

WARNING: drivers/watchdog/built-in.o(.data+0x24): Section mismatch in
reference from the variable sunxi_wdt_driver to the function
