      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.

      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: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h · 66114cad

      With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
      declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
      unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
      makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.

      essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it.  c files
      which need access to more backing-dev details now include
      backing-dev.h directly.  This takes backing-dev.h off the common

      bio: skip atomic inc/dec of ->bi_cnt for most use cases · dac56212
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      Struct bio has a reference count that controls when it can be freed.
      Most uses cases is allocating the bio, which then returns with a
      single reference to it, doing IO, and then dropping that single
      reference. We can remove this atomic_dec_and_test() in the completion
      path, if nobody else is holding a reference to the bio.
      
      If someone does call bio_get() on the bio, then we flag the bio as
      now having valid count and that we must properly honor the reference
      count when it's being put.
