I've at least identified two possible memory leaks in blkback, both
related to the shutdown path of a VBD:

- blkback doesn't wait for any pending purge work to finish before
  cleaning the list of free_pages. The purge work will call
  put_free_pages and thus we might end up with pages being added to
  the free_pages list after we have emptied it. Fix this by making
  sure there's no pending purge work before exiting
  xen_blkif_schedule, and moving the free_page cleanup code to
  xen_blkif_free.
- blkback doesn't wait for pending requests to end before cleaning
  persistent grants and the list of free_pages. Again this can add
  pages to the free_pages list or persistent grants to the
  persistent_gnts red-black tree. Fixed by moving the persistent
  grants and free_pages cleanup code to xen_blkif_free.

Also, add some checks in xen_blkif_free to make sure we are cleaning
everything.

Check that the ring does not have an insane amount of requests
(more than there could fit on the ring).

If we detect this case we will stop processing the requests
and wait until the XenBus disconnects the ring.

The existing check RING_REQUEST_CONS_OVERFLOW which checks for how
many responses we have created in the past (rsp_prod_pvt) vs
requests consumed (req_cons) and whether said difference is greater or
equal to the size of the ring, does not catch this case.

Wha the condition does check if there is a need to process more
as we still have a backlog of responses to finish. Note that both
of those values (rsp_prod_pvt and req_cons) are not exposed on the
shared ring.

To understand this problem a mini crash course in ring protocol
response/request updates is in place.

There are four entries: req_prod and rsp_prod; req_event and rsp_event
to track the ring entries. We are only concerned about the first two -
which set the tone of this bug.

The req_prod is a value incremented by frontend for each request put
on the ring. Conversely the rsp_prod is a value incremented by the backend
for each response put on the ring (rsp_prod gets set by rsp_prod_pvt when
pushing the responses on the ring).  Both values can
wrap and are modulo the size of the ring (in block case that is 32).
Please see RING_GET_REQUEST and RING_GET_RESPONSE for the more details.

The culprit here is that if the difference between the
req_prod and req_cons is greater than the ring size we have a problem.
Fortunately for us, the '__do_block_io_op' loop:

	rc = blk_rings->common.req_cons;
	rp = blk_rings->common.sring->req_prod;

	while (rc != rp) {

		..
		blk_rings->common.req_cons = ++rc; /* before make_response() */

	}

will loop up to the point when rc == rp. The macros inside of the
loop (RING_GET_REQUEST) is smart and is indexing based on the modulo
of the ring size. If the frontend has provided a bogus req_prod value
we will loop until the 'rc == rp' - which means we could be processing
already processed requests (or responses) often.

The reason the RING_REQUEST_CONS_OVERFLOW is not helping here is
b/c it only tracks how many responses we have internally produced
and whether we would should process more. The astute reader will
notice that the macro RING_REQUEST_CONS_OVERFLOW provides two
arguments - more on this later.

For example, if we were to enter this function with these values:

       	blk_rings->common.sring->req_prod =  X+31415 (X is the value from
		the last time __do_block_io_op was called).
        blk_rings->common.req_cons = X
        blk_rings->common.rsp_prod_pvt = X

The RING_REQUEST_CONS_OVERFLOW(&blk_rings->common, blk_rings->common.req_cons)
is doing:

	req_cons - rsp_prod_pvt >= 32

Which is,
	X - X >= 32 or 0 >= 32

And that is false, so we continue on looping (this bug).

If we re-use said macro RING_REQUEST_CONS_OVERFLOW and pass in the rp
instead (sring->req_prod) of rc, the this macro can do the check:

     req_prod - rsp_prov_pvt >= 32

Which is,
       X + 31415 - X >= 32 , or 31415 >= 32

which is true, so we can error out and break out of the function.

Unfortunatly the difference between rsp_prov_pvt and req_prod can be
at 32 (which would error out in the macro). This condition exists when
the backend is lagging behind with the responses and still has not finished
responding to all of them (so make_response has not been called), and
the rsp_prov_pvt + 32 == req_cons. This ends up with us not being able
to use said macro.

Hence introducing a new macro called RING_REQUEST_PROD_OVERFLOW which does
a simple check of:

    req_prod - rsp_prod_pvt > RING_SIZE

And with the X values from above:

   X + 31415 - X > 32

Returns true. Also not that if the ring is full (which is where
the RING_REQUEST_CONS_OVERFLOW triggered), we would not hit the
same condition:

   X + 32 - X > 32

Which is false.

Lets use that macro.
Note that in v5 of this patchset the macro was different - we used an
earlier version.

Currently xen-blkback passes the logical sector size over xenbus and
xen-blkfront sets up the paravirt disk with that logical block size.
But newer drives usually have the logical sector size set to 512 for
compatibility reasons and would show the actual sector size only in
physical sector size.
This results in the device being partitioned and accessed in dom0 with
the correct sector size, but the guest thinks 512 bytes is the correct
block size. And that results in poor performance.

To fix this, blkback gets modified to pass also physical-sector-size
over xenbus and blkfront to use both values to set up the paravirt
disk. I did not just change the passed in sector-size because I am
not sure having a bigger logical sector size than the physical one
is valid (and that would happen if a newer dom0 kernel hits an older
domU kernel). Also this way a domU set up before should still be
accessible (just some tools might detect the unaligned setup).

Indirect descriptors introduce a new block operation
(BLKIF_OP_INDIRECT) that passes grant references instead of segments
in the request. This grant references are filled with arrays of
blkif_request_segment_aligned, this way we can send more segments in a
request.

The proposed implementation sets the maximum number of indirect grefs
(frames filled with blkif_request_segment_aligned) to 256 in the
backend and 32 in the frontend. The value in the frontend has been
chosen experimentally, and the backend value has been set to a sane
value that allows expanding the maximum number of indirect descriptors
in the frontend if needed.

The migration code has changed from the previous implementation, in
which we simply remapped the segments on the shared ring. Now the
maximum number of segments allowed in a request can change depending
on the backend, so we have to requeue all the requests in the ring and
in the queue and split the bios in them if they are bigger than the
new maximum number of segments.

This mechanism allows blkback to change the number of grants
persistently mapped at run time.

The algorithm uses a simple LRU mechanism that removes (if needed) the
persistent grants that have not been used since the last LRU run, or
if all grants have been used it removes the first grants in the list
(that are not in use).

The algorithm allows the user to change the maximum number of
persistent grants, by changing max_persistent_grants in sysfs.

Since we are storing the persistent grants used inside the request
struct (to be able to mark them as "unused" when unmapping), we no
longer need the bitmap (unmap_seg).

Using balloon pages for all granted pages allows us to simplify the
logic in blkback, especially in the xen_blkbk_map function, since now
we can decide if we want to map a grant persistently or not after we
have actually mapped it. This could not be done before because
persistent grants used ballooned pages, whereas non-persistent grants
used pages from the kernel.

This patch also introduces several changes, the first one is that the
list of free pages is no longer global, now each blkback instance has
it's own list of free pages that can be used to map grants. Also, a
run time parameter (max_buffer_pages) has been added in order to tune
the maximum number of free pages each blkback instance will keep in
it's buffer.

[v1: The new_map int->bool had already been changed]
Signed-off-by: NKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

This patch implements persistent grants for the xen-blk{front,back}
mechanism. The effect of this change is to reduce the number of unmap
operations performed, since they cause a (costly) TLB shootdown. This
allows the I/O performance to scale better when a large number of VMs
are performing I/O.

Previously, the blkfront driver was supplied a bvec[] from the request
queue. This was granted to dom0; dom0 performed the I/O and wrote
directly into the grant-mapped memory and unmapped it; blkfront then
removed foreign access for that grant. The cost of unmapping scales
badly with the number of CPUs in Dom0. An experiment showed that when
Dom0 has 24 VCPUs, and guests are performing parallel I/O to a
ramdisk, the IPIs from performing unmap's is a bottleneck at 5 guests
(at which point 650,000 IOPS are being performed in total). If more
than 5 guests are used, the performance declines. By 10 guests, only
400,000 IOPS are being performed.

This patch improves performance by only unmapping when the connection
between blkfront and back is broken.

On startup blkfront notifies blkback that it is using persistent
grants, and blkback will do the same. If blkback is not capable of
persistent mapping, blkfront will still use the same grants, since it
is compatible with the previous protocol, and simplifies the code
complexity in blkfront.

To perform a read, in persistent mode, blkfront uses a separate pool
of pages that it maps to dom0. When a request comes in, blkfront
transmutes the request so that blkback will write into one of these
free pages. Blkback keeps note of which grefs it has already
mapped. When a new ring request comes to blkback, it looks to see if
it has already mapped that page. If so, it will not map it again. If
the page hasn't been previously mapped, it is mapped now, and a record
is kept of this mapping. Blkback proceeds as usual. When blkfront is
notified that blkback has completed a request, it memcpy's from the
shared memory, into the bvec supplied. A record that the {gref, page}
tuple is mapped, and not inflight is kept.

Writes are similar, except that the memcpy is peformed from the
supplied bvecs, into the shared pages, before the request is put onto
the ring.

Blkback stores a mapping of grefs=>{page mapped to by gref} in
a red-black tree. As the grefs are not known apriori, and provide no
guarantees on their ordering, we have to perform a search
through this tree to find the page, for every gref we receive. This
operation takes O(log n) time in the worst case. In blkfront grants
are stored using a single linked list.

The maximum number of grants that blkback will persistenly map is
currently set to RING_SIZE * BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST, to
prevent a malicios guest from attempting a DoS, by supplying fresh
grefs, causing the Dom0 kernel to map excessively. If a guest
is using persistent grants and exceeds the maximum number of grants to
map persistenly the newly passed grefs will be mapped and unmaped.
Using this approach, we can have requests that mix persistent and
non-persistent grants, and we need to handle them correctly.
This allows us to set the maximum number of persistent grants to a
lower value than RING_SIZE * BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST, although
setting it will lead to unpredictable performance.

In writing this patch, the question arrises as to if the additional
cost of performing memcpys in the guest (to/from the pool of granted
pages) outweigh the gains of not performing TLB shootdowns. The answer
to that question is `no'. There appears to be very little, if any
additional cost to the guest of using persistent grants. There is
perhaps a small saving, from the reduced number of hypercalls
performed in granting, and ending foreign access.

Part of the blkdev_issue_discard(xx) operation is that it can also
issue a secure discard operation that will permanantly remove the
sectors in question. We advertise that we can support that via the
'discard-secure' attribute and on the request, if the 'secure' bit
is set, we will attempt to pass in REQ_DISCARD | REQ_SECURE.

[v1: Used 'flag' instead of 'secure:1' bit]
[v2: Use 'reserved' uint8_t instead of adding a new value]
[v3: Check for nseg when mapping instead of operation]

The xenbus module provides xenbus_map_ring_valloc() and
xenbus_map_ring_vfree().  Use these to map the ring pages granted by

We emulate the barrier requests by draining the outstanding bio's
and then sending the WRITE_FLUSH command. To drain the I/Os
we use the refcnt that is used during disconnect to wait for all
the I/Os before disconnecting from the frontend. We latch on its
value and if it reaches either the threshold for disconnect or when
there are no more outstanding I/Os, then we have drained all I/Os.

..aka ATA TRIM/SCSI UNMAP command to be passed through the frontend
and used as appropiately by the backend. We also advertise
certain granulity parameters to the frontend so it can plug them in.
If the backend is a realy device - we just end up using
'blkdev_issue_discard' while for loopback devices - we just punch
a hole in the image file.

When do block-attach/block-detach test with below steps, umount hangs
in the guest. Furthermore shutdown ends up being stuck when umounting file-systems.

1. start guest.
2. attach new block device by xm block-attach in Dom0.
3. mount new disk in guest.
4. execute xm block-detach to detach the block device in dom0 until timeout
5. Any request to the disk will hung.

Root cause:
This issue is caused when setting backend device's state to
'XenbusStateClosing', which sends to the frontend the XenbusStateClosing
notification. When frontend receives the notification it tries to release
the disk in blkfront_closing(), but at that moment the disk is still in use
by guest, so frontend refuses to close. Specifically it sets the disk state to
XenbusStateClosing and sends the notification to backend - when backend receives the
event, it disconnects the vbd from real device, and sets the vbd device state to
XenbusStateClosing. The backend disconnects the real device/file, and any IO
requests to the disk in guest will end up in ether, leaving disk DEAD and set to
XenbusStateClosing. When the guest wants to disconnect the disk, umount will
hang on blkif_release()->xlvbd_release_gendisk() as it is unable to send any IO
to the disk, which prevents clean system shutdown.

Solution:
Don't disconnect backend until frontend state switched to XenbusStateClosed.
