      bcache: set max writeback rate when I/O request is idle · ea8c5356
      Coly Li 提交于
      Commit b1092c9a ("bcache: allow quick writeback when backing idle")
      allows the writeback rate to be faster if there is no I/O request on a
      bcache device. It works well if there is only one bcache device attached
      to the cache set. If there are many bcache devices attached to a cache
      set, it may introduce performance regression because multiple faster
      writeback threads of the idle bcache devices will compete the btree level
      locks with the bcache device who have I/O requests coming.
      
      This patch fixes the above issue by only permitting fast writebac when
      all bcache devices attached on the cache set are idle. And if one of the
      bcache devices has new I/O request coming, minimized all writeback
      throughput immediately and let PI controller __update_writeback_rate()
      to decide the upcoming writeback rate for each bcache device.
      
      Also when all bcache devices are idle, limited wrieback rate to a small
      number is wast of thoughput, especially when backing devices are slower
      non-rotation devices (e.g. SATA SSD). This patch sets a max writeback
      rate for each backing device if the whole cache set is idle. A faster
      writeback rate in idle time means new I/Os may have more available space
      for dirty data, and people may observe a better write performance then.
      
      Please note bcache may change its cache mode in run time, and this patch
      still works if the cache mode is switched from writeback mode and there
      is still dirty data on cache.

      bcache: finish incremental GC · 5c25c4fc
      Tang Junhui 提交于
      In GC thread, we record the latest GC key in gc_done, which is expected
      to be used for incremental GC, but in currently code, we didn't realize
      it. When GC runs, front side IO would be blocked until the GC over, it
      would be a long time if there is a lot of btree nodes.
      
      This patch realizes incremental GC, the main ideal is that, when there
      are front side I/Os, after GC some nodes (100), we stop GC, release locker
      of the btree node, and go to process the front side I/Os for some times
      (100 ms), then go back to GC again.
      
      By this patch, when we doing GC, I/Os are not blocked all the time, and
      there is no obvious I/Os zero jump problem any more.
      
      Patch v2: Rename some variables and macros name as Coly suggested.

      block: Add and use op_stat_group() for indexing disk_stat fields. · ddcf35d3
      Michael Callahan 提交于
      Add and use a new op_stat_group() function for indexing partition stat
      fields rather than indexing them by rq_data_dir() or bio_data_dir().
      This function works similarly to op_is_sync() in that it takes the
      request::cmd_flags or bio::bi_opf flags and determines which stats
      should et updated.
      
      In addition, the second parameter to generic_start_io_acct() and
      generic_end_io_acct() is now a REQ_OP rather than simply a read or
      write bit and it uses op_stat_group() on the parameter to determine
      the stat group.
      
      Note that the partition in_flight counts are not part of the per-cpu
      statistics and as such are not indexed via this function.  It's now
      indexed by op_is_write().
      
      tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17.  Updated to pass around REQ_OP.

      bcache: store disk name in struct cache and struct cached_dev · 6e916a7e
      Coly Li 提交于
      Current code uses bdevname() or bio_devname() to reference gendisk
      disk name when bcache needs to display the disk names in kernel message.
      It was safe before bcache device failure handling patch set merged in,
      because when devices are failed, there was deadlock to prevent bcache
      printing error messages with gendisk disk name. But after the failure
      handling patch set merged, the deadlock is fixed, so it is possible
      that the gendisk structure bdev->hd_disk is released when bdevname() is
      called to reference bdev->bd_disk->disk_name[]. This is why I receive
      bug report of NULL pointers deference panic.
      
      This patch stores gendisk disk name in a buffer inside struct cache and
      struct cached_dev, then print out the offline device name won't reference
      bdev->hd_disk anymore. And this patch also avoids extra function calls
      of bdevname() and bio_devnmae().
      
      Changelog:
      v3, add Reviewed-by from Hannes.
      v2, call bdevname() earlier in register_bdev()
      v1, first version with segguestion from Junhui Tang.

      bcache: add io_disable to struct cached_dev · c7b7bd07
      Coly Li 提交于
      If a bcache device is configured to writeback mode, current code does not
      handle write I/O errors on backing devices properly.
      
      In writeback mode, write request is written to cache device, and
      latter being flushed to backing device. If I/O failed when writing from
      cache device to the backing device, bcache code just ignores the error and
      upper layer code is NOT noticed that the backing device is broken.
      
      This patch tries to handle backing device failure like how the cache device
      failure is handled,
      - Add a error counter 'io_errors' and error limit 'error_limit' in struct
        cached_dev. Add another io_disable to struct cached_dev to disable I/Os
        on the problematic backing device.
      - When I/O error happens on backing device, increase io_errors counter. And
        if io_errors reaches error_limit, set cache_dev->io_disable to true, and
        stop the bcache device.
      
      The result is, if backing device is broken of disconnected, and I/O errors
      reach its error limit, backing device will be disabled and the associated
      bcache device will be removed from system.
      
      Changelog:
      v2: remove "bcache: " prefix in pr_error(), and use correct name string to
          print out bcache device gendisk name.
      v1: indeed this is new added in v2 patch set.

      bcache: add backing_request_endio() for bi_end_io · 27a40ab9
      Coly Li 提交于
      In order to catch I/O error of backing device, a separate bi_end_io
      call back is required. Then a per backing device counter can record I/O
      errors number and retire the backing device if the counter reaches a
      per backing device I/O error limit.
      
      This patch adds backing_request_endio() to bcache backing device I/O code
      path, this is a preparation for further complicated backing device failure
      handling. So far there is no real code logic change, I make this change a
      separate patch to make sure it is stable and reliable for further work.

      bcache: fix inaccurate io state for detached bcache devices · bc082a55
      Tang Junhui 提交于
      When we run IO in a detached device,  and run iostat to shows IO status,
      normally it will show like bellow (Omitted some fields):
      Device: ... avgrq-sz avgqu-sz   await r_await w_await  svctm  %util
      sdd        ... 15.89     0.53    1.82    0.20    2.23   1.81  52.30
      bcache0    ... 15.89   115.42    0.00    0.00    0.00   2.40  69.60
      but after IO stopped, there are still very big avgqu-sz and %util
      values as bellow:
      Device: ... avgrq-sz avgqu-sz   await r_await w_await  svctm  %util
      bcache0   ...      0   5326.32    0.00    0.00    0.00   0.00 100.10
      
      The reason for this issue is that, only generic_start_io_acct() called
      and no generic_end_io_acct() called for detached device in
      cached_dev_make_request(). See the code:
      //start generic_start_io_acct()
      generic_start_io_acct(q, rw, bio_sectors(bio), &d->disk->part0);
      if (cached_dev_get(dc)) {
      	//will callback generic_end_io_acct()
      }
      else {
      	//will not call generic_end_io_acct()
      }
      
      This patch calls generic_end_io_acct() in the end of IO for detached
      devices, so we can show IO state correctly.

      bcache: add CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE to struct cache_set flags · 771f393e
      Coly Li 提交于
      When too many I/Os failed on cache device, bch_cache_set_error() is called
      in the error handling code path to retire whole problematic cache set. If
      new I/O requests continue to come and take refcount dc->count, the cache
      set won't be retired immediately, this is a problem.
      
      Further more, there are several kernel thread and self-armed kernel work
      may still running after bch_cache_set_error() is called. It needs to wait
      quite a while for them to stop, or they won't stop at all. They also
      prevent the cache set from being retired.
      
      The solution in this patch is, to add per cache set flag to disable I/O
      request on this cache and all attached backing devices. Then new coming I/O
      requests can be rejected in *_make_request() before taking refcount, kernel
      threads and self-armed kernel worker can stop very fast when flags bit
      CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set.
      
      Because bcache also do internal I/Os for writeback, garbage collection,
      bucket allocation, journaling, this kind of I/O should be disabled after
      bch_cache_set_error() is called. So closure_bio_submit() is modified to
      check whether CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set on cache_set->flags. If set,
      closure_bio_submit() will set bio->bi_status to BLK_STS_IOERR and
      return, generic_make_request() won't be called.
      
      A sysfs interface is also added to set or clear CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE bit
      from cache_set->flags, to disable or enable cache set I/O for debugging. It
      is helpful to trigger more corner case issues for failed cache device.
      
      Changelog
      v4, add wait_for_kthread_stop(), and call it before exits writeback and gc
          kernel threads.
      v3, change CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE from 4 to 3, since it is bit index.
          remove "bcache: " prefix when printing out kernel message.
      v2, more changes by previous review,
      - Use CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE of cache_set->flags, suggested by Junhui.
      - Check CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE in bch_btree_gc() to stop a while-loop, this
        is reported and inspired from origal patch of Pavel Vazharov.

      All the crash issue happened when a bypass IO coming, in such scenario
      s->iop.bio is pointed to the s->orig_bio. In search_free(), it finishes the
      s->orig_bio by calling bio_complete(), and after that, s->iop.bio became
      invalid, then kernel would crash when calling bio_put(). Maybe its upper
      layer's faulty, since bio should not be freed before we calling bio_put(),
      but we'd better calling bio_put() first before calling bio_complete() to
      notify upper layer ending this bio.
      
      This patch moves bio_complete() under bio_put() to avoid kernel crash.

      bcache: fix unmatched generic_end_io_acct() & generic_start_io_acct() · b40503ea
      Zhai Zhaoxuan 提交于
      The function cached_dev_make_request() and flash_dev_make_request() call
      generic_start_io_acct() with (struct bcache_device)->disk when they start a
      closure. Then the function bio_complete() calls generic_end_io_acct() with
      (struct search)->orig_bio->bi_disk when the closure has done.
      Since the `bi_disk` is not the bcache device, the generic_end_io_acct() is
      called with a wrong device queue.
      
      It causes the "inflight" (in struct hd_struct) counter keep increasing
      without decreasing.
      
      This patch fix the problem by calling generic_end_io_acct() with
      (struct bcache_device)->disk.

      bcache: allow quick writeback when backing idle · b1092c9a
      Michael Lyle 提交于
      If the control system would wait for at least half a second, and there's
      been no reqs hitting the backing disk for awhile: use an alternate mode
      where we have at most one contiguous set of writebacks in flight at a
      time. (But don't otherwise delay).  If front-end IO appears, it will
      still be quick, as it will only have to contend with one real operation
      in flight.  But otherwise, we'll be sending data to the backing disk as
      quickly as it can accept it (with one op at a time).

      bcache: ret IOERR when read meets metadata error · b221fc13
      Rui Hua 提交于
      The read request might meet error when searching the btree, but the error
      was not handled in cache_lookup(), and this kind of metadata failure will
      not go into cached_dev_read_error(), finally, the upper layer will receive
      bi_status=0.  In this patch we judge the metadata error by the return
      value of bch_btree_map_keys(), there are two potential paths give rise to
      the error:
      
      1. Because the btree is not totally cached in memery, we maybe get error
         when read btree node from cache device (see bch_btree_node_get()), the
         likely errno is -EIO, -ENOMEM
      
      2. When read miss happens, bch_btree_insert_check_key() will be called to
         insert a "replace_key" to btree(see cached_dev_cache_miss(), just for
         doing preparatory work before insert the missed data to cache device),
         a failure can also happen in this situation, the likely errno is
         -ENOMEM
      
      bch_btree_map_keys() will return MAP_DONE in normal scenario, but we will
      get either -EIO or -ENOMEM in above two cases. if this happened, we should
      NOT recover data from backing device (when cache device is dirty) because
      we don't know whether bkeys the read request covered are all clean.  And
      after that happened, s->iop.status is still its initially value(0) before
      we submit s->bio.bio, we set it to BLK_STS_IOERR, so it can go into
      cached_dev_read_error(), and finally it can be passed to upper layer, or
      recovered by reread from backing device.

      bcache: recover data from backing when data is clean · e393aa24
      Rui Hua 提交于
      When we send a read request and hit the clean data in cache device, there
      is a situation called cache read race in bcache(see the commit in the tail
      of cache_look_up(), the following explaination just copy from there):
      The bucket we're reading from might be reused while our bio is in flight,
      and we could then end up reading the wrong data. We guard against this
      by checking (in bch_cache_read_endio()) if the pointer is stale again;
      if so, we treat it as an error (s->iop.error = -EINTR) and reread from
      the backing device (but we don't pass that error up anywhere)
      
      It should be noted that cache read race happened under normal
      circumstances, not the circumstance when SSD failed, it was counted
      and shown in  /sys/fs/bcache/XXX/internal/cache_read_races.
      
      Without this patch, when we use writeback mode, we will never reread from
      the backing device when cache read race happened, until the whole cache
      device is clean, because the condition
      (s->recoverable && (dc && !atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty))) is false in
      cached_dev_read_error(). In this situation, the s->iop.error(= -EINTR)
      will be passed up, at last, user will receive -EINTR when it's bio end,
      this is not suitable, and wield to up-application.
      
      In this patch, we use s->read_dirty_data to judge whether the read
      request hit dirty data in cache device, it is safe to reread data from
      the backing device when the read request hit clean data. This can not
      only handle cache read race, but also recover data when failed read
      request from cache device.

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
         GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
         LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
         GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
         ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
         LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
         LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      bcache: fix wrong cache_misses statistics · c1573137
      tang.junhui 提交于
      Currently, Cache missed IOs are identified by s->cache_miss, but actually,
      there are many situations that missed IOs are not assigned a value for
      s->cache_miss in cached_dev_cache_miss(), for example, a bypassed IO
      (s->iop.bypass = 1), or the cache_bio allocate failed. In these situations,
      it will go to out_put or out_submit, and s->cache_miss is null, which leads
      bch_mark_cache_accounting() to treat this IO as a hit IO.

      bcache: only permit to recovery read error when cache device is clean · d59b2379
      Coly Li 提交于
      When bcache does read I/Os, for example in writeback or writethrough mode,
      if a read request on cache device is failed, bcache will try to recovery
      the request by reading from cached device. If the data on cached device is
      not synced with cache device, then requester will get a stale data.
      
      For critical storage system like database, providing stale data from
      recovery may result an application level data corruption, which is
      unacceptible.
      
      With this patch, for a failed read request in writeback or writethrough
      mode, recovery a recoverable read request only happens when cache device
      is clean. That is to say, all data on cached device is up to update.
      
      For other cache modes in bcache, read request will never hit
      cached_dev_read_error(), they don't need this patch.
      
      Please note, because cache mode can be switched arbitrarily in run time, a
      writethrough mode might be switched from a writeback mode. Therefore
      checking dc->has_data in writethrough mode still makes sense.
      
      Changelog:
      V4: Fix parens error pointed by Michael Lyle.
      v3: By response from Kent Oversteet, he thinks recovering stale data is a
          bug to fix, and option to permit it is unnecessary. So this version
          the sysfs file is removed.
      v2: rename sysfs entry from allow_stale_data_on_failure  to
          allow_stale_data_on_failure, and fix the confusing commit log.
      v1: initial patch posted.

      block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index · 74d46992
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O.  The
      block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
      request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
      is open.  Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
      passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
      
      For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
      once per block device.  But given that the block layer also does
      partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
      used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
      
      Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
      sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
      over the stack.
