      dm mpath: requeue I/O during pg_init · b63349a7
      由 Hannes Reinecke 提交于 
      When pg_init is running no I/O can be submitted to the underlying
devices, as the path priority etc might change.  When using queue_io for
this, requests will be piling up within multipath as the block I/O
scheduler just sees a _very fast_ device.  All of this queued I/O has to
be resubmitted from within multipathing once pg_init is done.

This approach has the problem that it's virtually impossible to
abort I/O when pg_init is running, and we're adding heavy load
to the devices after pg_init since all of the queued I/O needs to be
resubmitted _before_ any requests can be pulled off of the request queue
and normal operation continues.

This patch will requeue the I/O that triggers the pg_init call, and
return 'busy' when pg_init is in progress.  With these changes the block
I/O scheduler will stop submitting I/O during pg_init, resulting in a
quicker path switch and less I/O pressure (and memory consumption) after
pg_init.

      dm mpath: fix race condition between multipath_dtr and pg_init_done · 954a73d5
      由 Shiva Krishna Merla 提交于 
      Whenever multipath_dtr() is happening we must prevent queueing any
further path activation work.  Implement this by adding a new
'pg_init_disabled' flag to the multipath structure that denotes future
path activation work should be skipped if it is set.  By disabling
pg_init and then re-enabling in flush_multipath_work() we also avoid the
potential for pg_init to be initiated while suspending an mpath device.

Without this patch a race condition exists that may result in a kernel
panic:

1) If after pg_init_done() decrements pg_init_in_progress to 0, a call
   to wait_for_pg_init_completion() assumes there are no more pending path
   management commands.
2) If pg_init_required is set by pg_init_done(), due to retryable
   mode_select errors, then process_queued_ios() will again queue the
   path activation work.
3) If free_multipath() completes before activate_path() work is called a
   NULL pointer dereference like the following can be seen when
   accessing members of the recently destructed multipath:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000090

      dm: allocate buffer for messages with small number of arguments using GFP_NOIO · f36afb39
      由 Mikulas Patocka 提交于 
      dm-mpath and dm-thin must process messages even if some device is
suspended, so we allocate argv buffer with GFP_NOIO. These messages have
a small fixed number of arguments.

On the other hand, dm-switch needs to process bulk data using messages
so excessive use of GFP_NOIO could cause trouble.

The patch also lowers the default number of arguments from 64 to 8, so
that there is smaller load on GFP_NOIO allocations.
