6f3bc22bf5 Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: LVM
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
          If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
          return 200 OK and serve the same content:
            Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

a7f7f6248d treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'
Since commit 84af7a6194 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

2613eab119 dm mpath: add Historical Service Time Path Selector
This new selector keeps an exponential moving average of the service
time for each path (losely defined as delta between start_io and
end_io), and uses this along with the number of inflight requests to
estimate future service time for a path.  Since we don't have a prober
to account for temporally slow paths, re-try "slow" paths every once in
a while (num_paths * historical_service_time). To account for fast paths
transitioning to slow, if a path has not completed any request within
(num_paths * historical_service_time), limit the number of outstanding
requests.  To account for low volume situations where number of
inflight IOs would be zero, the last finish time of each path is
factored in.

7431b7835f dm: add clone target
Add the dm-clone target, which allows cloning of arbitrary block
devices.

dm-clone produces a one-to-one copy of an existing, read-only source
device into a writable destination device: It presents a virtual block
device which makes all data appear immediately, and redirects reads and
writes accordingly.

The main use case of dm-clone is to clone a potentially remote,
high-latency, read-only, archival-type block device into a writable,
fast, primary-type device for fast, low-latency I/O. The cloned device
is visible/mountable immediately and the copy of the source device to
the destination device happens in the background, in parallel with user
I/O.

When the cloning completes, the dm-clone table can be removed altogether
and be replaced, e.g., by a linear table, mapping directly to the
destination device.

For further information and examples of how to use dm-clone, please read
Documentation/admin-guide/device-mapper/dm-clone.rst

88cd3e6cfa dm verity: add root hash pkcs#7 signature verification
The verification is to support cases where the root hash is not secured
by Trusted Boot, UEFI Secureboot or similar technologies.

One of the use cases for this is for dm-verity volumes mounted after
boot, the root hash provided during the creation of the dm-verity volume
has to be secure and thus in-kernel validation implemented here will be
used before we trust the root hash and allow the block device to be
created.

The signature being provided for verification must verify the root hash
and must be trusted by the builtin keyring for verification to succeed.

The hash is added as a key of type "user" and the description is passed
to the kernel so it can look it up and use it for verification.

Adds CONFIG_DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG which can be turned on if root
hash verification is needed.

Kernel commandline dm_verity module parameter 'require_signatures' will
indicate whether to force root hash signature verification (for all dm
verity volumes).

e4f3fabd67 dm: add dust target
Add the dm-dust target, which simulates the behavior of bad sectors
at arbitrary locations, and the ability to enable the emulation of
the read failures at an arbitrary time.

This target behaves similarly to a linear target.  At a given time,
the user can send a message to the target to start failing read
requests on specific blocks.  When the failure behavior is enabled,
reads of blocks configured "bad" will fail with EIO.

Writes of blocks configured "bad" will result in the following:

1. Remove the block from the "bad block list".
2. Successfully complete the write.

After this point, the block will successfully contain the written
data, and will service reads and writes normally.  This emulates the
behavior of a "remapped sector" on a hard disk drive.

dm-dust provides logging of which blocks have been added or removed
to the "bad block list", as well as logging when a block has been
removed from the bad block list.  These messages can be used
alongside the messages from the driver using a dm-dust device to
analyze the driver's behavior when a read fails at a given time.

(This logging can be reduced via a "quiet" mode, if desired.)

NOTE: If the block size is larger than 512 bytes, only the first sector
of each "dust block" is detected.  Placing a limiting layer above a dust
target, to limit the minimum I/O size to the dust block size, will
ensure proper emulation of the given large block size.

6bbc923dfc dm: add support to directly boot to a mapped device
Add a "create" module parameter, which allows device-mapper targets to
be configured at boot time. This enables early use of DM targets in the
boot process (as the root device or otherwise) without the need of an
initramfs.

The syntax used in the boot param is based on the concise format from
the dmsetup tool to follow the rule of least surprise:

	dmsetup table --concise /dev/mapper/lroot

Which is:
	dm-mod.create=<name>,<uuid>,<minor>,<flags>,<table>[,<table>+][;<name>,<uuid>,<minor>,<flags>,<table>[,<table>+]+]

Where,
	<name>		::= The device name.
	<uuid>		::= xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx | ""
	<minor>		::= The device minor number | ""
	<flags>		::= "ro" | "rw"
	<table>		::= <start_sector> <num_sectors> <target_type> <target_args>
	<target_type>	::= "verity" | "linear" | ...

For example, the following could be added in the boot parameters:
dm-mod.create="lroot,,,rw, 0 4096 linear 98:16 0, 4096 4096 linear 98:32 0" root=/dev/dm-0

Only the targets that were tested are allowed and the ones that don't
change any block device when the device is create as read-only. For
example, mirror and cache targets are not allowed. The rationale behind
this is that if the user makes a mistake, choosing the wrong device to
be the mirror or the cache can corrupt data.

The only targets initially allowed are:
* crypt
* delay
* linear
* snapshot-origin
* striped
* verity

18a5bf2705 dm: add unstriped target
This device mapper "unstriped" target remaps and unstripes I/O so it
is issued solely on a single drive in a HW RAID0 or dm-striped target.

In a 4 drive HW RAID0 the striped target exposes 1/4th of the LBA range
as a virtual drive.  Each I/O to that virtual drive will only be issued
to the 1 drive that was selected of the 4 drives in the HW RAID0.

This unstriped target is most useful for Intel NVMe drives that have
multiple cores but that do not have firmware control to pin separate LBA
ranges to each discrete cpu core.

3b1a94c88b dm zoned: drive-managed zoned block device target
The dm-zoned device mapper target provides transparent write access
to zoned block devices (ZBC and ZAC compliant block devices).
dm-zoned hides to the device user (a file system or an application
doing raw block device accesses) any constraint imposed on write
requests by the device, equivalent to a drive-managed zoned block
device model.

Write requests are processed using a combination of on-disk buffering
using the device conventional zones and direct in-place processing for
requests aligned to a zone sequential write pointer position.
A background reclaim process implemented using dm_kcopyd_copy ensures
that conventional zones are always available for executing unaligned
write requests. The reclaim process overhead is minimized by managing
buffer zones in a least-recently-written order and first targeting the
oldest buffer zones. Doing so, blocks under regular write access (such
as metadata blocks of a file system) remain stored in conventional
zones, resulting in no apparent overhead.

dm-zoned implementation focus on simplicity and on minimizing overhead
(CPU, memory and storage overhead). For a 14TB host-managed disk with
256 MB zones, dm-zoned memory usage per disk instance is at most about
3 MB and as little as 5 zones will be used internally for storing metadata
and performing buffer zone reclaim operations. This is achieved using
zone level indirection rather than a full block indirection system for
managing block movement between zones.

dm-zoned primary target is host-managed zoned block devices but it can
also be used with host-aware device models to mitigate potential
device-side performance degradation due to excessive random writing.

Zoned block devices can be formatted and checked for use with the dm-zoned
target using the dmzadm utility available at:

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few
  late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last
  couple days, but the whole set has received a build success
  notification from the kbuild robot.

  Change summary:

   - Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the
     parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been
     reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block
     devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that
     namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new
     interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of
     namespace modes or state.

     This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1
     Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error"
     requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus
     devices.

   - Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted
     by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for
     dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations.
     This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are
     related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for
     other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent
     memory support.

   - 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is
     available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger
     memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would
     otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR
     (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event.
     Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from
     surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally,
     fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for
     -stable.

   - ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to
     add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM
     payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

d35a878ae1 Merge tag 'for-4.12/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - A major update for DM cache that reduces the latency for deciding
   whether blocks should migrate to/from the cache. The bio-prison-v2
   interface supports this improvement by enabling direct dispatch of
   work to workqueues rather than having to delay the actual work
   dispatch to the DM cache core. So the dm-cache policies are much more
   nimble by being able to drive IO as they see fit. One immediate
   benefit from the improved latency is a cache that should be much more
   adaptive to changing workloads.

 - Add a new DM integrity target that emulates a block device that has
   additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing integrity
   information.

 - Add a new authenticated encryption feature to the DM crypt target
   that builds on the capabilities provided by the DM integrity target.

 - Add MD interface for switching the raid4/5/6 journal mode and update
   the DM raid target to use it to enable aid4/5/6 journal write-back
   support.

 - Switch the DM verity target over to using the asynchronous hash
   crypto API (this helps work better with architectures that have
   access to off-CPU algorithm providers, which should reduce CPU
   utilization).

 - Various request-based DM and DM multipath fixes and improvements from
   Bart and Christoph.

 - A DM thinp target fix for a bio structure leak that occurs for each
   discard IFF discard passdown is enabled.

 - A fix for a possible deadlock in DM bufio and a fix to re-check the
   new buffer allocation watermark in the face of competing admin
   changes to the 'max_cache_size_bytes' tunable.

 - A couple DM core cleanups.

f26c5719b2 dm: add dax_device and dax_operations support
Allocate a dax_device to represent the capacity of a device-mapper
instance. Provide a ->direct_access() method via the new dax_operations
indirection that mirrors the functionality of the current direct_access
support via block_device_operations.  Once fs/dax.c has been converted
to use dax_operations the old dm_blk_direct_access() will be removed.

A new helper dm_dax_get_live_target() is introduced to separate some of
the dm-specifics from the direct_access implementation.

This enabling is only for the top-level dm representation to upper
layers. Converting target direct_access implementations is deferred to a
separate patch.
