      bcache: add separate workqueue for journal_write to avoid deadlock · 0f843e65
      Guoju Fang 提交于
      After write SSD completed, bcache schedules journal_write work to
      system_wq, which is a public workqueue in system, without WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
      flag. system_wq is also a bound wq, and there may be no idle kworker on
      current processor. Creating a new kworker may unfortunately need to
      reclaim memory first, by shrinking cache and slab used by vfs, which
      depends on bcache device. That's a deadlock.
      
      This patch create a new workqueue for journal_write with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
      flag. It's rescuer thread will work to avoid the deadlock.

      xen/blkfront: When purging persistent grants, keep them in the buffer · f151ba98
      Boris Ostrovsky 提交于
      Commit a46b5367 ("xen/blkfront: cleanup stale persistent grants")
      added support for purging persistent grants when they are not in use. As
      part of the purge, the grants were removed from the grant buffer, This
      eventually causes the buffer to become empty, with BUG_ON triggered in
      get_free_grant(). This can be observed even on an idle system, within
      20-30 minutes.
      
      We should keep the grants in the buffer when purging, and only free the
      grant ref.

      block: fix deadline elevator drain for zoned block devices · 854f31cc
      Damien Le Moal 提交于
      When the deadline scheduler is used with a zoned block device, writes
      to a zone will be dispatched one at a time. This causes the warning
      message:
      
      deadline: forced dispatching is broken (nr_sorted=X), please report this
      
      to be displayed when switching to another elevator with the legacy I/O
      path while write requests to a zone are being retained in the scheduler
      queue.
      
      Prevent this message from being displayed when executing
      elv_drain_elevator() for a zoned block device. __blk_drain_queue() will
      loop until all writes are dispatched and completed, resulting in the
      desired elevator queue drain without extensive modifications to the
      deadline code itself to handle forced-dispatch calls.

      block: use nanosecond resolution for iostat · b57e99b4
      Omar Sandoval 提交于
      Klaus Kusche reported that the I/O busy time in /proc/diskstats was not
      updating properly on 4.18. This is because we started using ktime to
      track elapsed time, and we convert nanoseconds to jiffies when we update
      the partition counter. However, this gets rounded down, so any I/Os that
      take less than a jiffy are not accounted for. Previously in this case,
      the value of jiffies would sometimes increment while we were doing I/O,
      so at least some I/Os were accounted for.
      
      Let's convert the stats to use nanoseconds internally. We still report
      milliseconds as before, now more accurately than ever. The value is
      still truncated to 32 bits for backwards compatibility.

      null_blk: fix zoned support for non-rq based operation · b228ba1c
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      The supported added for zones in null_blk seem to assume that only rq
      based operation is possible. But this depends on the queue_mode setting,
      if this is set to 0, then cmd->bio is what we need to be operating on.
      Right now any attempt to load null_blk with queue_mode=0 will
      insta-crash, since cmd->rq is NULL and null_handle_cmd() assumes it to
      always be set.
      
      Make the zoned code deal with bio's instead, or pass in the
      appropriate sector/nr_sectors instead.

      blkcg: use tryget logic when associating a blkg with a bio · 31118850
      Dennis Zhou (Facebook) 提交于
      There is a very small change a bio gets caught up in a really
      unfortunate race between a task migration, cgroup exiting, and itself
      trying to associate with a blkg. This is due to css offlining being
      performed after the css->refcnt is killed which triggers removal of
      blkgs that reach their blkg->refcnt of 0.
      
      To avoid this, association with a blkg should use tryget and fallback to
      using the root_blkg.

      blkcg: delay blkg destruction until after writeback has finished · 59b57717
      Dennis Zhou (Facebook) 提交于
      Currently, blkcg destruction relies on a sequence of events:
        1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called and blkgs
           release their reference to the blkcg. This immediately destroys
           the cgwbs (writeback).
        2. With blkgs giving up their reference, the blkcg ref count should
           become zero and eventually call blkcg_css_free() which finally
           frees the blkcg.
      
      Jiufei Xue reported that there is a race between blkcg_bio_issue_check()
      and cgroup_rmdir(). To remedy this, blkg destruction becomes contingent
      on the completion of all writeback associated with the blkcg. A count of
      the number of cgwbs is maintained and once that goes to zero, blkg
      destruction can follow. This should prevent premature blkg destruction
      related to writeback.
      
      The new process for blkcg cleanup is as follows:
        1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called which offlines
           writeback. Blkg destruction is delayed on the cgwb_refcnt count to
           avoid punting potentially large amounts of outstanding writeback
           to root while maintaining any ongoing policies. Here, the base
           cgwb_refcnt is put back.
        2. When the cgwb_refcnt becomes zero, blkcg_destroy_blkgs() is called
           and handles destruction of blkgs. This is where the css reference
           held by each blkg is released.
        3. Once the blkcg ref count goes to zero, blkcg_css_free() is called.
           This finally frees the blkg.
      
      It seems in the past blk-throttle didn't do the most understandable
      things with taking data from a blkg while associating with current. So,
      the simplification and unification of what blk-throttle is doing caused
      this.

      Revert "blk-throttle: fix race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir()" · 6b065462
      Dennis Zhou (Facebook) 提交于
      This reverts commit 4c699480.
      
      Destroying blkgs is tricky because of the nature of the relationship. A
      blkg should go away when either a blkcg or a request_queue goes away.
      However, blkg's pin the blkcg to ensure they remain valid. To break this
      cycle, when a blkcg is offlined, blkgs put back their css ref. This
      eventually lets css_free() get called which frees the blkcg.
      
      The above commit (4c699480) breaks this order of events by trying to
      destroy blkgs in css_free(). As the blkgs still hold references to the
      blkcg, css_free() is never called.
      
      The race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir() will be
      addressed in the following patch by delaying destruction of a blkg until
      all writeback associated with the blkcg has been finished.
