There are two BUG reports that raid5 will hang at bitmap_startwrite([1],[2]), root cause is that bitmap start write and end write is unbalanced, it's not quite clear where, and while reviewing raid5 code, it's found that bitmap operations can be optimized. For example, for a 4 disks raid5, with chunksize=8k, if user issue a IO (0 + 48k) to the array: ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │chunk 0 │ │ ┌────────────┬─────────────┬─────────────┬────────────┼ │ sh0 │A0: 0 + 4k │A1: 8k + 4k │A2: 16k + 4k │A3: P │ │ ┼────────────┼─────────────┼─────────────┼────────────┼ │ sh1 │B0: 4k + 4k │B1: 12k + 4k │B2: 20k + 4k │B3: P │ ┼──────┴────────────┴─────────────┴─────────────┴────────────┼ │chunk 1 │ │ ┌────────────┬─────────────┬─────────────┬────────────┤ │ sh2 │C0: 24k + 4k│C1: 32k + 4k │C2: P │C3: 40k + 4k│ │ ┼────────────┼─────────────┼─────────────┼────────────┼ │ sh3 │D0: 28k + 4k│D1: 36k + 4k │D2: P │D3: 44k + 4k│ └──────┴────────────┴─────────────┴─────────────┴────────────┘ Before this patch, 4 stripe head will be used, and each sh will attach bio for 3 disks, and each attached bio will trigger bitmap_startwrite() once, which means total 12 times. - 3 times (0 + 4k), for (A0, A1 and A2) - 3 times (4 + 4k), for (B0, B1 and B2) - 3 times (8 + 4k), for (C0, C1 and C3) - 3 times (12 + 4k), for (D0, D1 and D3) After this patch, md upper layer will calculate that IO range (0 + 48k) is corresponding to the bitmap (0 + 16k), and call bitmap_startwrite() just once. Noted that this patch will align bitmap ranges to the chunks, for example, if user issue a IO (0 + 4k) to array: - Before this patch, 1 time (0 + 4k), for A0; - After this patch, 1 time (0 + 8k) for chunk 0; Usually, one bitmap bit will represent more than one disk chunk, and this doesn't have any difference. And even if user really created a array that one chunk contain multiple bits, the overhead is that more data will be recovered after power failure. Also remove STRIPE_BITMAP_PENDING since it's not used anymore.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
