Commit Message

Kinga Stefaniuk May 14, 2024, 9:35 a.m. UTC
In mdadm commit 49b69533e8 ("mdmonitor: check if udev has finished
events processing") mdmonitor has been learnt to wait for udev to finish
processing, and later in commit 9935cf0f64f3 ("Mdmonitor: Improve udev
event handling") pooling for MD events on /proc/mdstat file has been
deprecated because relying on udev events is more reliable and less bug
prone (we are not competing with udev).

After those changes we are still observing missing mdmonitor events in
some scenarios, especially SpareEvent is likely to be missed. With this
patch MD will be able to generate more change uevents and wakeup
mdmonitor more frequently to give it possibility to notice events.
MD has md_new_events() functionality to trigger events and with this
patch this function is extended to generate udev CHANGE uevents. It
cannot be done directly because this function is called on interrupts
context, so appropriate workqueue is created. Uevents are less time
critical, it is safe to use workqueue. It is limited to CHANGE event as
there is no need to generate other uevents for now.
With this change, mdmonitor events are less likely to be missed. Our
internal tests suite confirms that, mdmonitor reliability is (again)
improved.

md already define it's own workqueue, please use that instead.

And there is only a few place that this is called under irq context,
you can use kobject_uevent() directly, and then as you said "mdmonitor
events are less likely to be missed".

This is the wrong place, you should do this before release mddev.

And please use cancel_work_sync() here, no need to flush pending work in
this case, you don't need a change uevent while the array is removed.

Thanks,
Kuai
