      nullb: badbblocks support · 2f54a613
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      Sometime disk could have tracks broken and data there is inaccessable,
      but data in other parts can be accessed in normal way. MD RAID supports
      such disks. But we don't have a good way to test it, because we can't
      control which part of a physical disk is bad. For a virtual disk, this
      can be easily controlled.
      
      This patch adds a new 'badblock' attribute. Configure it in this way:
      echo "+1-100" > xxx/badblock, this will make sector [1-100] as bad
      blocks.
      echo "-20-30" > xxx/badblock, this will make sector [20-30] good
      
      If badblocks are accessed, the nullb disk will return IO error. Other
      parts of the disk can accessed in normal way.

      nullb: emulate cache · deb78b41
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      Software must flush disk cache to guarantee data safety. To check if
      software correctly does disk cache flush, we must know the behavior of
      disk. But physical disk behavior is uncontrollable. Even software
      doesn't do the flush, the disk probably does the flush. This patch tries
      to emulate a cache in the test disk.
      
      All write will go to a cache first, when the cache is full, we then
      flush some data to disk storage. A flush request will flush all data of
      the cache to disk storage. A FUA write will write to memory store
      directly and revalidate data in cache. If there is a power failure (by
      writing to power attribute, 'echo 0 > disk_name/power'), we discard all
      data in the cache, but preserve the data in disk storage. Later we can
      power on the disk again as usual (write 1 to 'power' attribute), then we
      can check data integrity and very if software does everything correctly.
      
      A new attribute 'cache_size' (in MB) is added to configure cache size.

      nullb: bandwidth control · eff2c4f1
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      In test, we usually expect controllable disk speed. For example, in a
      raid array, we'd like some disks are fast and some are slow. MD RAID
      actually has a feature for this. To test the feature, we'd like to make
      the disk run in specific speed.
      
      block throttling probably can be used for this purpose, but it requires
      cgroup setup. Here we just implement a simple throttling mechanism in
      the driver. There is slight fluctuation in the mechanism, but it's good
      enough for test.
      
      To configure the bandwidth cap, user sets the 'mbps' attribute. mbps is
      MB/s.

      nullb: add interface to power on disk · cedcafad
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      The device created in nullb configfs interface isn't power on by
      default. After user configures the device, user can do 'echo 1 >
      xxx/nullb/device_name/power' to power on the device, which will create a
      disk. the xxx/nullb/device_name/index is the disk index, so if the index
      is 2, the new created disk should be named as /dev/nullb2. Note, the
      'index' is only valid after disk is power on.
      
      'echo 0 > xxx/nullb/device_name/power' will remove the disk. Note, this
      doesn't remove the device. To remove the device, user should do 'rmdir
      xxx/nullb/device_name'. Removing the device will remove the disk too.

      nullb: add configfs interface · 3bf2bd20
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      Add configfs interface for nullb. configfs interface is more flexible
      and easy to configure in a per-disk basis.
      
      Configuration is something like this:
      mount -t configfs none /mnt
      
      Checking which features the driver supports:
      cat /mnt/nullb/features
      
      The 'features' attribute is for future extension. We probably will add
      new features into the driver, userspace can check this attribute to find
      the supported features.
      
      Create/remove a device:
      mkdir/rmdir /mnt/nullb/a
      
      Then configure the device by setting attributes under /mnt/nullb/a, most
      of nullb supported module parameters are converted to attributes:
      size; /* device size in MB */
      completion_nsec; /* time in ns to complete a request */
      submit_queues; /* number of submission queues */
      home_node; /* home node for the device */
      queue_mode; /* block interface */
      blocksize; /* block size */
      irqmode; /* IRQ completion handler */
      hw_queue_depth; /* queue depth */
      use_lightnvm; /* register as a LightNVM device */
      blocking; /* blocking blk-mq device */
      use_per_node_hctx; /* use per-node allocation for hardware context */
      
      Note, creating a device doesn't create a disk immediately. Creating a
      disk is done in two phases: create a device and then power on the
      device. Next patch will introduce device power on.

      block: introduce new block status code type · 2a842aca
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
      we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
      instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
      status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
      and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
      we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
      errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
      the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
      will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
      for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.
      
      For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
      to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
      fruite to improve it.
      
      blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
      typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

      block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ space · aebf526b
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it

      cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op
      fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough
      operations.
      
      Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
      private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
      can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

      lightnvm: control life of nvm_dev in driver · b0b4e09c
      Matias Bjørling 提交于
      LightNVM compatible device drivers does not have a method to expose
      LightNVM specific sysfs entries.
      
      To enable LightNVM sysfs entries to be exposed, lightnvm device
      drivers require a struct device to attach it to. To allow both the
      actual device driver and lightnvm sysfs entries to coexist, the device
      driver tracks the lifetime of the nvm_dev structure.
      
      This patch refactors NVMe and null_blk to handle the lifetime of struct
      nvm_dev, which eliminates the need for struct gendisk when a lightnvm
