This test on ->writes_pending cannot be safe as the counter
can be incremented at any moment and cannot be locked against.
Change it to test conf->active_stripes, which at least
can be locked against. More changes are still needed.
A future patch will change ->writes_pending, and testing it here will
be very inconvenient.

This reverts commit e8d7c33232e5fdfa761c3416539bc5b4acd12db5.
Now that raid5 doesn't abuse bi_phys_segments any more, we no longer
need to impose these limits.

When a read request, which bypassed the cache, fails, we need to retry
it through the cache.
This involves attaching it to a sequence of stripe_heads, and it may not
be possible to get all the stripe_heads we need at once.
We do what we can, and record how far we got in ->bi_phys_segments so
we can pick up again later.
There is only ever one bio which may have a non-zero offset stored in
->bi_phys_segments, the one that is either active in the single thread
which calls retry_aligned_read(), or is in conf->retry_read_aligned
waiting for retry_aligned_read() to be called again.
So we only need to store one offset value. This can be in a local
variable passed between remove_bio_from_retry() and
retry_aligned_read(), or in the r5conf structure next to the
->retry_read_aligned pointer.
Storing it there allows the last usage of ->bi_phys_segments to be
removed from md/raid5.c.

a counter
md/raid5 needs to keep track of how many stripe_heads are processing a
bio so that it can delay calling bio_endio() until all stripe_heads
have completed. It currently uses 16 bits of ->bi_phys_segments for
this purpose.
16 bits is only enough for 256M requests, and it is possible for a
single bio to be larger than this, which causes problems. Also, the
bio struct contains a larger counter, __bi_remaining, which has a
purpose very similar to the purpose of our counter. So stop using
->bi_phys_segments, and instead use __bi_remaining.
This means we don't need to initialize the counter, as our caller
initializes it to '1'. It also means we can call bio_endio() directly
as it tests this counter internally.

We currently gather bios that need to be returned into a bio_list
and call bio_endio() on them all together.
The original reason for this was to avoid making the calls while
holding a spinlock.
Locking has changed a lot since then, and that reason is no longer
valid.
So discard return_io() and various return_bi lists, and just call
bio_endio() directly as needed.

If a device fails during a write, we must ensure the failure is
recorded in the metadata before the completion of the write is
acknowleged.
Commit c3cce6cda162 ("md/raid5: ensure device failure recorded before
write request returns.") added code for this, but it was
unnecessarily complicated. We already had similar functionality for
handling updates to the bad-block-list, thanks to Commit de393cdea66c
("md: make it easier to wait for bad blocks to be acknowledged.")
So revert most of the former commit, and instead avoid collecting
completed writes if MD_CHANGE_PENDING is set. raid5d() will then flush
the metadata and retry the stripe_head.
As this change can leave a stripe_head ready for handling immediately
after handle_active_stripes() returns, we change raid5_do_work() to
pause when MD_CHANGE_PENDING is set, so that it doesn't spin.
We check MD_CHANGE_PENDING *after* analyse_stripe() as it could be set
asynchronously. After analyse_stripe(), we have collected stable data
about the state of devices, which will be used to make decisions.

We use md_write_start() to increase the count of pending writes, and
md_write_end() to decrement the count. We currently count bios
submitted to md/raid5. Change it count stripe_heads that a WRITE bio
has been attached to.
So now, raid5_make_request() calls md_write_start() and then
md_write_end() to keep the count elevated during the setup of the
request.
add_stripe_bio() calls md_write_start() for each stripe_head, and the
completion routines always call md_write_end(), instead of only
calling it when raid5_dec_bi_active_stripes() returns 0.
make_discard_request also calls md_write_start/end().
The parallel between md_write_{start,end} and use of bi_phys_segments
can be seen in that:
Whenever we set bi_phys_segments to 1, we now call md_write_start.
Whenever we increment it on non-read requests with
raid5_inc_bi_active_stripes(), we now call md_write_start().
Whenever we decrement bi_phys_segments on non-read requsts with
raid5_dec_bi_active_stripes(), we now call md_write_end().
This reduces our dependence on keeping a per-bio count of active
stripes in bi_phys_segments.
md_write_inc() is added which parallels md_write_start(), but requires
that a write has already been started, and is certain never to sleep.
This can be used inside a spinlocked region when adding to a write
request.

Allow writing to 'consistency_policy' attribute when the array is
active. Add a new function 'change_consistency_policy' to the
md_personality operations structure to handle the change in the
personality code. Values "ppl" and "resync" are accepted and
turn PPL on and off respectively.
When enabling PPL its location and size should first be set using
'ppl_sector' and 'ppl_size' attributes and a valid PPL header should be
written at this location on each member device.
Enabling or disabling PPL is performed under a suspended array. The
raid5_reset_stripe_cache function frees the stripe cache and allocates
it again in order to allocate or free the ppl_pages for the stripes in
the stripe cache.

Add a function to modify the log by removing an rdev when a drive fails
or adding when a spare/replacement is activated as a raid member.
Removing a disk just clears the child log rdev pointer. No new stripes
will be accepted for this child log in ppl_write_stripe() and running io
units will be processed without writing PPL to the device.
Adding a disk sets the child log rdev pointer and writes an empty PPL
header.

Load the log from each disk when starting the array and recover if the
array is dirty.
The initial empty PPL is written by mdadm. When loading the log we
verify the header checksum and signature. For external metadata arrays
the signature is verified in userspace, so here we read it from the
header, verifying only if it matches on all disks, and use it later when
writing PPL.
In addition to the header checksum, each header entry also contains a
checksum of its partial parity data. If the header is valid, recovery is
performed for each entry until an invalid entry is found. If the array
is not degraded and recovery using PPL fully succeeds, there is no need
to resync the array because data and parity will be consistent, so in
this case resync will be disabled.
Due to compatibility with IMSM implementations on other systems, we
can't assume that the recovery data block size is always 4K. Writes
generated by MD raid5 don't have this issue, but when recovering PPL
written in other environments it is possible to have entries with
512-byte sector granularity. The recovery code takes this into account
and also the logical sector size of the underlying drives.

Implement the calculation of partial parity for a stripe and PPL write
logging functionality. The description of PPL is added to the
documentation. More details can be found in the comments in raid5-ppl.c.
Attach a page for holding the partial parity data to stripe_head.
Allocate it only if mddev has the MD_HAS_PPL flag set.
Partial parity is the xor of not modified data chunks of a stripe and is
calculated as follows:
- reconstruct-write case:
xor data from all not updated disks in a stripe
- read-modify-write case:
xor old data and parity from all updated disks in a stripe
Implement it using the async_tx API and integrate into raid_run_ops().
It must be called when we still have access to old data, so do it when
STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN is set, but before ops_run_prexor5(). The result is
stored into sh->ppl_page.
Partial parity is not meaningful for full stripe write and is not stored
in the log or used for recovery, so don't attempt to calculate it when
stripe has STRIPE_FULL_WRITE.
Put the PPL metadata structures to md_p.h because userspace tools
(mdadm) will also need to read/write PPL.
Warn about using PPL with enabled disk volatile write-back cache for
now. It can be removed once disk cache flushing before writing PPL is
implemented.

Previous patch (raid5: only dispatch IO from raid5d for harddisk raid)
defers IO dispatching. The goal is to create better IO pattern. At that
time, we don't sort the deffered IO and hope the block layer can do IO
merge and sort. Now the raid5-cache writeback could create large amount
of bios. And if we enable muti-thread for stripe handling, we can't
control when to dispatch IO to raid disks. In a lot of time, we are
dispatching IO which block layer can't do merge effectively.
This patch moves further for the IO dispatching defer. We accumulate
bios, but we don't dispatch all the bios after a threshold is met. This
'dispatch partial portion of bios' stragety allows bios coming in a
large time window are sent to disks together. At the dispatching time,
there is large chance the block layer can merge the bios. To make this
more effective, we dispatch IO in ascending order. This increases
request merge chance and reduces disk seek.

In raid5-cache writeback mode, we have two types of stripes to handle.
- stripes which aren't cached yet
- stripes which are cached and flushing out to raid disks
Upperlayer is more sensistive to latency of the first type of stripes
generally. But we only one handle list for all these stripes, where the
two types of stripes are mixed together. When reclaim flushes a lot of
stripes, the first type of stripes could be noticeably delayed. On the
other hand, if the log space is tight, we'd like to handle the second
type of stripes faster and free log space.
This patch destinguishes the two types stripes. They are added into
different handle list. When we try to get a stripe to handl, we prefer
the first type of stripes unless log space is tight.
This should have no impact for !writeback case.

Currently only dm and md/raid5 bios trigger
trace_block_bio_complete(). Now that we have bio_chain() and
bio_inc_remaining(), it is not possible, in general, for a driver to
know when the bio is really complete. Only bio_endio() knows that.
So move the trace_block_bio_complete() call to bio_endio().
Now trace_block_bio_complete() pairs with trace_block_bio_queue().
Any bio for which a 'queue' event is traced, will subsequently
generate a 'complete' event.
There are a few cases where completion tracing is not wanted.
1/ If blk_update_request() has already generated a completion
trace event at the 'request' level, there is no point generating
one at the bio level too. In this case the bi_sector and bi_size
will have changed, so the bio level event would be wrong
2/ If the bio hasn't actually been queued yet, but is being aborted
early, then a trace event could be confusing. Some filesystems
call bio_endio() but do not want tracing.
3/ The bio_integrity code interposes itself by replacing bi_end_io,
then restoring it and calling bio_endio() again. This would produce
two identical trace events if left like that.
To handle these, we introduce a flag BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION and only
produce the trace event when this is set.
We address point 1 above by clearing the flag in blk_update_request().
We address point 2 above by only setting the flag when
generic_make_request() is called.
We address point 3 above by clearing the flag after generating a
completion event.
When bio_split() is used on a bio, particularly in blk_queue_split(),
there is an extra complication. A new bio is split off the front, and
may be handle directly without going through generic_make_request().
The old bio, which has been advanced, is passed to
generic_make_request(), so it will trigger a trace event a second
time.
Probably the best result when a split happens is to see a single
'queue' event for the whole bio, then multiple 'complete' events - one
for each component. To achieve this was can:
- copy the BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION flag to the new bio in bio_split()
- avoid generating a 'queue' event if BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION is already set.
This way, the split-off bio won't create a queue event, the original
won't either even if it re-submitted to generic_make_request(),
but both will produce completion events, each for their own range.
So if generic_make_request() is called (which generates a QUEUED
event), then bi_endio() will create a single COMPLETE event for each
range that the bio is split into, unless the driver has explicitly
requested it not to.

Before this patch, device InJournal will be included in prexor
(SYNDROME_SRC_WANT_DRAIN) but not in reconstruct (SYNDROME_SRC_WRITTEN). So it
will break parity calculation. With srctype == SYNDROME_SRC_WRITTEN, we need
include both dev with non-null ->written and dev with R5_InJournal. This fixes
logic in 1e6d690(md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache)

Firstly bio_clone_mddev() is used in raid normal I/O and isn't
in resync I/O path.
Secondly all the direct access to bvec table in raid happens on
resync I/O except for write behind of raid1, in which we still
use bio_clone() for allocating new bvec table.
So this patch replaces bio_clone() with bio_clone_fast()
in bio_clone_mddev().
Also kill bio_clone_mddev() and call bio_clone_fast() directly, as
suggested by Christoph Hellwig.

stripes which are being reclaimed are still accounted into cached
stripes. The reclaim takes time. r5c_do_reclaim isn't aware of the
stripes and does unnecessary stripe reclaim. In practice, I saw one
stripe is reclaimed one time. This will cause bad IO pattern. Fixing
this by excluding the reclaing stripes in the check.

It is important to be able to flush all stripes in raid5-cache.
Therefore, we need reserve some space on the journal device for
these flushes. If flush operation includes pending writes to the
stripe, we need to reserve (conf->raid_disk + 1) pages per stripe
for the flush out. This reduces the efficiency of journal space.
If we exclude these pending writes from flush operation, we only
need (conf->max_degraded + 1) pages per stripe.
With this patch, when log space is critical (R5C_LOG_CRITICAL=1),
pending writes will be excluded from stripe flush out. Therefore,
we can reduce reserved space for flush out and thus improve journal
device efficiency.

Chunk aligned read significantly reduces CPU usage of raid456.
However, it is not safe to fully bypass the write back cache.
This patch enables chunk aligned read with write back cache.
For chunk aligned read, we track stripes in write back cache at
a bigger granularity, "big_stripe". Each chunk may contain more
than one stripe (for example, a 256kB chunk contains 64 4kB-page,
so this chunk contain 64 stripes). For chunk_aligned_read, these
stripes are grouped into one big_stripe, so we only need one lookup
for the whole chunk.
For each big_stripe, struct big_stripe_info tracks how many stripes
of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. We count how many
stripes of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. These
counters are tracked in a radix tree (big_stripe_tree).
r5c_tree_index() is used to calculate keys for the radix tree.
chunk_aligned_read() calls r5c_big_stripe_cached() to look up
big_stripe of each chunk in the tree. If this big_stripe is in the
tree, chunk_aligned_read() aborts. This look up is protected by
rcu_read_lock().
It is necessary to remember whether a stripe is counted in
big_stripe_tree. Instead of adding new flag, we reuses existing flags:
STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE. If either of these
two flags are set, the stripe is counted in big_stripe_tree. This
requires moving set_bit(STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE) to
r5c_try_caching_write(); and moving clear_bit of
STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE to
r5c_finish_stripe_write_out().

We made raid5 stripe handling multi-thread before. It works well for
SSD. But for harddisk, the multi-threading creates more disk seek, so
not always improve performance. For several hard disks based raid5,
multi-threading is required as raid5d becames a bottleneck especially
for sequential write.
To overcome the disk seek issue, we only dispatch IO from raid5d if the
array is harddisk based. Other threads can still handle stripes, but
can't dispatch IO.
Idealy, we should control IO dispatching order according to IO position
interrnally. Right now we still depend on block layer, which isn't very
efficient sometimes though.
My setup has 9 harddisks, each disk can do around 180M/s sequential
write. So in theory, the raid5 can do 180 * 8 = 1440M/s sequential
write. The test machine uses an ATOM CPU. I measure sequential write
with large iodepth bandwidth to raid array:
without patch: ~600M/s
without patch and group_thread_cnt=4: 750M/s
with patch and group_thread_cnt=4: 950M/s
with patch, group_thread_cnt=4, skip_copy=1: 1150M/s
We are pretty close to the maximum bandwidth in the large iodepth
iodepth case. The performance gap of small iodepth sequential write
between software raid and theory value is still very big though, because
we don't have an efficient pipeline.

write-back cache in degraded mode introduces corner cases to the array.
Although we try to cover all these corner cases, it is safer to just
disable write-back cache when the array is in degraded mode.
In this patch, we disable writeback cache for degraded mode:
1. On device failure, if the array enters degraded mode, raid5_error()
will submit async job r5c_disable_writeback_async to disable
writeback;
2. In r5c_journal_mode_store(), it is invalid to enable writeback in
degraded mode;
3. In r5c_try_caching_write(), stripes with s->failed>0 will be handled
in write-through mode.

Write back cache requires a complex RMW mechanism, where old data is
read into dev->orig_page for prexor, and then xor is done with
dev->page. This logic is already implemented in the write path.
However, current read path is not awared of this requirement. When
the array is optimal, the RMW is not required, as the data are
read from raid disks. However, when the target stripe is degraded,
complex RMW is required to generate right data.
To keep read path as clean as possible, we handle read path by
flushing degraded, in-journal stripes before processing reads to
missing dev.
Specifically, when there is read requests to a degraded stripe
with data in journal, handle_stripe_fill() calls
r5c_make_stripe_write_out() and exits. Then handle_stripe_dirtying()
will do the complex RMW and flush the stripe to RAID disks. After
that, read requests are handled.
There is one more corner case when there is non-overwrite bio for
the missing (or out of sync) dev. handle_stripe_dirtying() will not
be able to process the non-overwrite bios without constructing the
data in handle_stripe_fill(). This is fixed by delaying non-overwrite
bios in handle_stripe_dirtying(). So handle_stripe_fill() works on
these bios after the stripe is flushed to raid disks.

With write back cache, we use orig_page to do prexor. This patch
makes sure we read data into orig_page for it.
Flag R5_OrigPageUPTDODATE is added to show whether orig_page
has the latest data from raid disk.

the a couple conditions in handle_stripe_dirtying().

The mddev->flags are used for different purposes. There are a lot of
places we check/change the flags without masking unrelated flags, we
could check/change unrelated flags. These usage are most for superblock
write, so spearate superblock related flags. This should make the code
clearer and also fix real bugs.

Current implementation employ 16bit counter of active stripes in lower
bits of bio->bi_phys_segments. If request is big enough to overflow
this counter bio will be completed and freed too early.
Fortunately this not happens in default configuration because several
other limits prevent that: stripe_cache_size * nr_disks effectively
limits count of active stripes. And small max_sectors_kb at lower
disks prevent that during normal read/write operations.
Overflow easily happens in discard if it's enabled by module parameter
"devices_handle_discard_safely" and stripe_cache_size is set big enough.
This patch limits requests size with 256Mb - 8Kb to prevent overflows.

RMW of r5c write back cache uses an extra page to store old data for
prexor. handle_stripe_dirtying() allocates this page by calling
alloc_page(). However, alloc_page() may fail.
To handle alloc_page() failures, this patch adds an extra page to
disk_info. When alloc_page fails, handle_stripe() trys to use these
pages. When these pages are used by other stripe (R5C_EXTRA_PAGE_IN_USE),
the stripe is added to delayed_list.

With raid5 cache, we committing data from journal device. When
there is flush request, we need to flush journal device's cache.
This was not needed in raid5 journal, because we will flush the
journal before committing data to raid disks.
This is similar to FUA, except that we also need flush journal for
FUA. Otherwise, corruptions in earlier meta data will stop recovery
from reaching FUA data.

There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space.
For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes.
To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal.
In current implementation, reclaim happens when:
1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim
if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds.
2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes,
or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k)
(r5c_check_cached_full_stripe)
3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage)
4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data)
r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim.
For stripe cache:
When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached,
or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer
than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes
are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure
is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes.
For log space:
To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space
to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total
number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current
implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending
data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case).
Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached
stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and
parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space
required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space
calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as
reclaim_required_space.
Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and
R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log
device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL
is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of
reclaim_required_space.
r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in
a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their
first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint)
should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list.
When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out
stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is
set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the
log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two
phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as:
1. write data to journal
(r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data)
2. call bio_endio
(r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes).
Then the writing-out phase is as:
1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out)
2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW)
3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device
4. Write data and parity to RAID disks
This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with
stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write
data to journal device.
Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch.
With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation
and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal
device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will
reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of
parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes.
This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state:
- STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE,
- STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE,
Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in
r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list.
STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for
stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list
are not considered as "active".
For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block
being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data
is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page
from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the
->page data back into the parity block.
r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back
cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy.
There are some known limitations of the cache implementation:
1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes
of smaller granularity are write through.
2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later
writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by
moving log_io to r5dev.
3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which
is a significant bottleneck for some workloads.
4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in
the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data
(sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces
availability of the array.

This patch adds state machine for raid5-cache. With log device, the
raid456 array could operate in two different modes (r5c_journal_mode):
- write-back (R5C_MODE_WRITE_BACK)
- write-through (R5C_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH)
Existing code of raid5-cache only has write-through mode. For write-back
cache, it is necessary to extend the state machine.
With write-back cache, every stripe could operate in two different
phases:
- caching
- writing-out
In caching phase, the stripe handles writes as:
- write to journal
- return IO
In writing-out phase, the stripe behaviors as a stripe in write through
mode R5C_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH.
STRIPE_R5C_CACHING is added to sh->state to differentiate caching and
writing-out phase.
Please note: this is a "no-op" patch for raid5-cache write-through
mode.
The following detailed explanation is copied from the raid5-cache.c:
/*
* raid5 cache state machine
*
* With rhe RAID cache, each stripe works in two phases:
* - caching phase
* - writing-out phase
*
* These two phases are controlled by bit STRIPE_R5C_CACHING:
* if STRIPE_R5C_CACHING == 0, the stripe is in writing-out phase
* if STRIPE_R5C_CACHING == 1, the stripe is in caching phase
*
* When there is no journal, or the journal is in write-through mode,
* the stripe is always in writing-out phase.
*
* For write-back journal, the stripe is sent to caching phase on write
* (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying). r5c_make_stripe_write_out() kicks off
* the write-out phase by clearing STRIPE_R5C_CACHING.
*
* Stripes in caching phase do not write the raid disks. Instead, all
* writes are committed from the log device. Therefore, a stripe in
* caching phase handles writes as:
* - write to log device
* - return IO
*
* Stripes in writing-out phase handle writes as:
* - calculate parity
* - write pending data and parity to journal
* - write data and parity to raid disks
* - return IO for pending writes
