      block: ensure to split after potentially bouncing a bio · 23688bf4
      Junichi Nomura 提交于
      blk_queue_bio() does split then bounce, which makes the segment
      counting based on pages before bouncing and could go wrong. Move
      the split to after bouncing, like we do for blk-mq, and the we
      fix the issue of having the bio count for segments be wrong.

      block: defer timeouts to a workqueue · 287922eb
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Timer context is not very useful for drivers to perform any meaningful abort
      action from.  So instead of calling the driver from this useless context
      defer it to a workqueue as soon as possible.
      
      Note that while a delayed_work item would seem the right thing here I didn't
      dare to use it due to the magic in blk_add_timer that pokes deep into timer
      internals.  But maybe this encourages Tejun to add a sensible API for that to
      the workqueue API and we'll all be fine in the end :)
      
      Contains a major update from Keith Bush:
      
      "This patch removes synchronizing the timeout work so that the timer can
       start a freeze on its own queue. The timer enters the queue, so timer
       context can only start a freeze, but not wait for frozen."

      SCSI: Fix NULL pointer dereference in runtime PM · 4fd41a85
      Ken Xue 提交于
      The routines in scsi_pm.c assume that if a runtime-PM callback is
      invoked for a SCSI device, it can only mean that the device's driver
      has asked the block layer to handle the runtime power management (by
      calling blk_pm_runtime_init(), which among other things sets q->dev).
      
      However, this assumption turns out to be wrong for things like the ses
      driver.  Normally ses devices are not allowed to do runtime PM, but
      userspace can override this setting.  If this happens, the kernel gets
      a NULL pointer dereference when blk_post_runtime_resume() tries to use
      the uninitialized q->dev pointer.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by checking q->dev in block layer before
      handle runtime PM. Since ses doesn't define any PM callbacks and call
      blk_pm_runtime_init(), the crash won't occur.
      
      This fixes Bugzilla #101371.

      block: Always check queue limits for cloned requests · bf4e6b4e
      Hannes Reinecke 提交于
      When a cloned request is retried on other queues it always needs
      to be checked against the queue limits of that queue.
      Otherwise the calculations for nr_phys_segments might be wrong,
      leading to a crash in scsi_init_sgtable().
      
      To clarify this the patch renames blk_rq_check_limits()
      to blk_cloned_rq_check_limits() and removes the symbol
      export, as the new function should only be used for
      cloned requests and never exported.

      mm, page_alloc: rename __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM · 71baba4b
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      __GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
      could not sleep.  Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
      context and callers that are not willing to sleep.  The latter should
      clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake.  As clearing
      __GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
      wrong flags.  This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
      indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
      them prevents it.

      mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd
      
      __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
      spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
      have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
      to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
      lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".
      
      Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
      were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
      an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
      reserves.
      
      This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
      cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
      __GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
      are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
      callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
      redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
      kswapd for background reclaim.
      
      This patch then converts a number of sites
      
      o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
        pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.
      
      o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
        __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
        into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
        are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.
      
      o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
        helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
        checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
        positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
        is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
        flag manipulations.
      
      o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
        and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.
      
      The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
      and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
      In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.
      
      The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
      GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
      now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
      if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

      block: generic request_queue reference counting · 3ef28e83
      Dan Williams 提交于
      Allow pmem, and other synchronous/bio-based block drivers, to fallback
      on a per-cpu reference count managed by the core for tracking queue
      live/dead state.
      
      The existing per-cpu reference count for the blk_mq case is promoted to
      be used in all block i/o scenarios.  This involves initializing it by
      default, waiting for it to drop to zero at exit, and holding a live
      reference over the invocation of q->make_request_fn() in
      generic_make_request().  The blk_mq code continues to take its own
      reference per blk_mq request and retains the ability to freeze the
      queue, but the check that the queue is frozen is moved to
      generic_make_request().
      
      This fixes crash signatures like the following:

      block: don't release bdi while request_queue has live references · b02176f3
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      bdi's are initialized in two steps, bdi_init() and bdi_register(), but
      destroyed in a single step by bdi_destroy() which, for a bdi embedded
      in a request_queue, is called during blk_cleanup_queue() which makes
      the queue invisible and starts the draining of remaining usages.
      
      A request_queue's user can access the congestion state of the embedded
      bdi as long as it holds a reference to the queue.  As such, it may
      access the congested state of a queue which finished
      blk_cleanup_queue() but hasn't reached blk_release_queue() yet.
      Because the congested state was embedded in backing_dev_info which in
      turn is embedded in request_queue, accessing the congested state after
      bdi_destroy() was called was fine.  The bdi was destroyed but the
      memory region for the congested state remained accessible till the
      queue got released.
      
      a13f35e8 ("writeback: don't embed root bdi_writeback_congested in
      bdi_writeback") changed the situation.  Now, the root congested state
      which is expected to be pinned while request_queue remains accessible
      is separately reference counted and the base ref is put during
      bdi_destroy().  This means that the root congested state may go away
      prematurely while the queue is between bdi_dstroy() and
      blk_cleanup_queue(), which was detected by Andrey's KASAN tests.
      
      The root cause of this problem is that bdi doesn't distinguish the two
      steps of destruction, unregistration and release, and now the root
      congested state actually requires a separate release step.  To fix the
      issue, this patch separates out bdi_unregister() and bdi_exit() from
      bdi_destroy().  bdi_unregister() is called from blk_cleanup_queue()
      and bdi_exit() from blk_release_queue().  bdi_destroy() is now just a
      simple wrapper calling the two steps back-to-back.
      
      While at it, the prototype of bdi_destroy() is moved right below
      bdi_setup_and_register() so that the counterpart operations are
      located together.

      blkcg: consolidate blkg creation in blkcg_bio_issue_check() · ae118896
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkg (blkcg_gq) currently is created by blkcg policies invoking
      blkg_lookup_create() which ends up repeating about the same code in
      different policies.  Theoretically, this can avoid the overhead of
      looking and/or creating blkg's if blkcg is enabled but no policy is in
      use; however, the cost of blkg lookup / creation is very low
      especially if only the root blkcg is in use which is highly likely if
      no blkcg policy is in active use - it boils down to a single very
      predictable conditional and surrounding RCU protection.
      
      This patch consolidates blkg creation to a new function
      blkcg_bio_issue_check() which is called during bio issue from
      generic_make_request_checks().  blkcg_bio_issue_check() is now the
      only function which tries to create missing blkg's.  The subsequent
      policy and request_list operations just perform blkg_lookup() and if
      missing falls back to the root.
      
      * blk_get_rl() no longer tries to create blkg.  It uses blkg_lookup()
        instead of blkg_lookup_create().
      
      * blk_throtl_bio() is now called from blkcg_bio_issue_check() with rcu
        read locked and blkg already looked up.  Both throtl_lookup_tg() and
        throtl_lookup_create_tg() are dropped.
      
      * cfq is similarly updated.  cfq_lookup_create_cfqg() is replaced with
        cfq_lookup_cfqg()which uses blkg_lookup().
      
      This consolidates blkg handling and avoids unnecessary blkg creation
      retries under memory pressure.  In addition, this provides a common
      bio entry point into blkcg where things like common accounting can be
      performed.

      block: make generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios · 54efd50b
      Kent Overstreet 提交于
      The way the block layer is currently written, it goes to great lengths
      to avoid having to split bios; upper layer code (such as bio_add_page())
      checks what the underlying device can handle and tries to always create
      bios that don't need to be split.
      
      But this approach becomes unwieldy and eventually breaks down with
      stacked devices and devices with dynamic limits, and it adds a lot of
      complexity. If the block layer could split bios as needed, we could
      eliminate a lot of complexity elsewhere - particularly in stacked
      drivers. Code that creates bios can then create whatever size bios are
      convenient, and more importantly stacked drivers don't have to deal with
      both their own bio size limitations and the limitations of the
      (potentially multiple) devices underneath them.  In the future this will
      let us delete merge_bvec_fn and a bunch of other code.
      
      We do this by adding calls to blk_queue_split() to the various
      make_request functions that need it - a few can already handle arbitrary
      size bios. Note that we add the call _after_ any call to
      blk_queue_bounce(); this means that blk_queue_split() and
      blk_recalc_rq_segments() don't need to be concerned with bouncing
      affecting segment merging.
      
      Some make_request_fn() callbacks were simple enough to audit and verify
      they don't need blk_queue_split() calls. The skipped ones are:
      
       * nfhd_make_request (arch/m68k/emu/nfblock.c)
       * axon_ram_make_request (arch/powerpc/sysdev/axonram.c)
       * simdisk_make_request (arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c)
       * brd_make_request (ramdisk - drivers/block/brd.c)
       * mtip_submit_request (drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.c)
       * loop_make_request
       * null_queue_bio
       * bcache's make_request fns
      
      Some others are almost certainly safe to remove now, but will be left
      for future patches.

      block: manipulate bio->bi_flags through helpers · b7c44ed9
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      Some places use helpers now, others don't. We only have the 'is set'
      helper, add helpers for setting and clearing flags too.
      
      It was a bit of a mess of atomic vs non-atomic access. With
      BIO_UPTODATE gone, we don't have any risk of concurrent access to the
      flags. So relax the restriction and don't make any of them atomic. The
      flags that do have serialization issues (reffed and chained), we
      already handle those separately.

      block: add a bi_error field to struct bio · 4246a0b6
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
      
       (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
       (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
      
      The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
      error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
      when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
      bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario.  Having both mechanisms
      available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
      and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
      them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
      of error returns.
      
      So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
      bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

      writeback, blkcg: propagate non-root blkcg congestion state · 482cf79c
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Now that bdi layer can handle per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested state,
      blk_{set|clear}_congested() can propagate non-root blkcg congestion
      state to them.
      
      This can be easily achieved by disabling the root_rl tests in
      blk_{set|clear}_congested().  Note that we still need those tests when
      !CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK as otherwise we'll end up flipping root blkcg
      wb's congestion state for events happening on other blkcgs.

      writeback, blkcg: restructure blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() · d40f75a0
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() take @q and set or clear,
      respectively, the congestion state of its bdi's root wb.  Because bdi
      used to be able to handle congestion state only on the root wb, the
      callers of those functions tested whether the congestion is on the
      root blkcg and skipped if not.
      
      This is cumbersome and makes implementation of per cgroup
      bdi_writeback congestion state propagation difficult.  This patch
      renames blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() to
      blk_{set|clear}_congested(), and makes them take request_list instead
      of request_queue and test whether the specified request_list is the
      root one before updating bdi_writeback congestion state.  This makes
      the tests in the callers unnecessary and simplifies them.
      
      As there are no external users of these functions, the definitions are
      moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to block/blk-core.c.
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior difference.

      writeback: move backing_dev_info->state into bdi_writeback · 4452226e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
      and the role of the separation is unclear.  For cgroup support for
      writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
      wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi.  To achieve
      that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
      IOs for a cgroup independently.
      
      This patch moves bdi->state into wb.
      
      * enum bdi_state is renamed to wb_state and the prefix of all enums is
        changed from BDI_ to WB_.
      
      * Explicit zeroing of bdi->state is removed without adding zeoring of
        wb->state as the whole data structure is zeroed on init anyway.
      
      * As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
        uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
        introducing no behavior changes.

      block, dm: don't copy bios for request clones · 5f1b670d
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Currently dm-multipath has to clone the bios for every request sent
      to the lower devices, which wastes cpu cycles and ties down memory.
      
      This patch instead adds a new REQ_CLONE flag that instructs req_bio_endio
      to not complete bios attached to a request, which we set on clone
      requests similar to bios in a flush sequence.  With this change I/O
      errors on a path failure only get propagated to dm-multipath, which
      can then either resubmit the I/O or complete the bios on the original
      request.
      
      I've done some basic testing of this on a Linux target with ALUA support,
      and it survives path failures during I/O nicely.

      blk-mq: make plug work for mutiple disks and queues · 5b3f341f
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      Last patch makes plug work for multiple queue case. However it only
      works for single disk case, because it assumes only one request in the
      plug list. If a task is accessing multiple disks, eg MD/DM, the
      assumption is wrong. Let blk_attempt_plug_merge() record request from
      the same queue.
      
      V2: use NULL parameter in !mq case. Fix a bug. Add comments in
      blk_attempt_plug_merge to make it less (hopefully) confusion.

      blk: clean up plug · dd6cf3e1
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      Current code looks like inner plug gets flushed with a
      blk_finish_plug(). Actually it's a nop. All requests/callbacks are added
      to current->plug, while only outmost plug is assigned to current->plug.
      So inner plug always has empty request/callback list, which makes
      blk_flush_plug_list() a nop. This tries to make the code more clear.

      block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered. · 6cd18e71
      NeilBrown 提交于
      Because of the peculiar way that md devices are created (automatically
      when the device node is opened), a new device can be created and
      registered immediately after the
      	blk_unregister_region(disk_devt(disk), disk->minors);
      call in del_gendisk().
      
      Therefore it is important that all visible artifacts of the previous
      device are removed before this call.  In particular, the 'bdi'.
      
      Since:
      commit c4db59d3
      Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
          fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to default_backing_dev_info
      
      moved the
         device_unregister(bdi->dev);
      call from bdi_unregister() to bdi_destroy() it has been quite easy to
      lose a race and have a new (e.g.) "md127" be created after the
      blk_unregister_region() call and before bdi_destroy() is ultimately
      called by the final 'put_disk', which must come after del_gendisk().
      
      The new device finds that the bdi name is already registered in sysfs
      and complains
      
      > [ 9627.630029] WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 3330 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x5a/0x70()
      > [ 9627.630032] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/bdi/9:127'
      
      We can fix this by moving the bdi_destroy() call out of
      blk_release_queue() (which can happen very late when a refcount
      reaches zero) and into blk_cleanup_queue() - which happens exactly when the md
      device driver calls it.
      
      Then it is only necessary for md to call blk_cleanup_queue() before
      del_gendisk().  As loop.c devices are also created on demand by
      opening the device node, we make the same change there.
