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. slightly changed the code by Shaohua Signed-off-by: NSong Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Signed-off-by: NShaohua Li <shli@fb.com>

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 */ Signed-off-by: NSong Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Signed-off-by: NShaohua Li <shli@fb.com>

Yi reported a memory leak of raid5 with DIF/DIX enabled disks. raid5 doesn't alloc/free bio, instead it reuses bios. There are two issues in current code: 1. the code calls bio_init (from init_stripe->raid5_build_block->bio_init) then bio_reset (ops_run_io). The bio is reused, so likely there is integrity data attached. bio_init will clear a pointer to integrity data and makes bio_reset can't release the data 2. bio_reset is called before dispatching bio. After bio is finished, it's possible we don't free bio's integrity data (eg, we don't call bio_reset again) Both issues will cause memory leak. The patch moves bio_init to stripe creation and bio_reset to bio end io. This will fix the two issues. Reported-by: NYi Zhang <yizhan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NShaohua Li <shli@fb.com>

After array enters in faulty state (e.g. number of failed drives becomes more then accepted for raid5 level) it sets error flags (one of this flags is MD_CHANGE_PENDING). For internal metadata arrays MD_CHANGE_PENDING cleared into md_update_sb, but not for external metadata arrays. MD_CHANGE_PENDING flag set prevents to finish all new or non-finished IOs to array and hold them in pending state. In some cases this can leads to deadlock situation. For example, we have faulty array (2 of 4 drives failed) and udev handle array state changes and blkid started (or other userspace application that used array to read/write) but unable to finish reads due to IO hold. At the same time we unable to get exclusive access to array (to stop array in our case) because another external application still use this array. Fix makes possible to return IO with errors immediately. So external application can finish working with array and give exclusive access to other applications to perform required management actions with array.

The counter conf->empty_inactive_list_nr is only used for determine if the raid5 is congested which is deal with in function raid5_congested(). It was increased in get_free_stripe() when conf->inactive_list got to be empty and decreased in release_inactive_stripe_list() when splice temp_inactive_list to conf->inactive_list. However, this may have a problem when raid5_get_active_stripe or stripe_add_to_batch_list was called, because these two functions may call list_del_init(&sh->lru) to delete sh from "conf->inactive_list + hash" which may cause "conf->inactive_list + hash" to be empty when atomic_inc_not_zero(&sh->count) got false. So a check should be done at these two point and increase empty_inactive_list_nr accordingly. Otherwise the counter may get to be negative number which would influence async readahead from VFS.

Every time a device is removed with ->hot_remove_disk() a synchronize_rcu() call is made which can delay several milliseconds in some case. If lots of devices fail at once - as could happen with a large RAID10 where one set of devices are removed all at once - these delays can add up to be very inconcenient. As failure is not reversible we can check for that first, setting a separate flag if it is found, and then all synchronize_rcu() once for all the flagged devices.

break_stripe_batch_list breaks up a batch and copies some flags from the batch head to the members, preserving others. It doesn't preserve or copy STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE. This is not normally a problem as STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE is cleared when a stripe_head is added to a batch, and is not set on stripe_heads already in a batch. However there is no locking to ensure one thread doesn't set the flag after it has just been cleared in another. This does occasionally happen. md/raid5 maintains a count of the number of stripe_heads with STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE set: conf->preread_active_stripes. When break_stripe_batch_list clears STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE inadvertently this could becomes incorrect and will never again return to zero. md/raid5 delays the handling of some stripe_heads until preread_active_stripes becomes zero. So when the above mention race happens, those stripe_heads become blocked and never progress, resulting is write to the array handing. So: change break_stripe_batch_list to preserve STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE in the members of a batch.

My test release stripes in this order: - release all stripes with hash 0 - raid5_get_active_stripe still sleeps since active_stripes > max_nr_stripes * 3 / 4 - release all stripes with hash other than 0. active_stripes becomes 0 - raid5_get_active_stripe still sleeps, since nobody wakes up wait_for_stripe[0] The system live locks. The problem is active_stripes isn't a per-hash count. Revert the patch makes the live lock go away.
