Cache set congested threshold values congested_read_threshold_us and congested_write_threshold_us can be set via sysfs interface. These two values are 'unsigned int' type, but sysfs interface uses strtoul to convert input string. So if people input a large number like 9999999999, the value indeed set is 1410065407, which is not expected behavior. This patch replaces sysfs_strtoul() by sysfs_strtoul_clamp() when convert input string to unsigned int value, and set value range in [0, UINT_MAX], to avoid the above integer overflow errors.

Currently sysfs_strtoul_clamp() is defined as, 82 #define sysfs_strtoul_clamp(file, var, min, max) \ 83 do { \ 84 if (attr == &sysfs_ ## file) \ 85 return strtoul_safe_clamp(buf, var, min, max) \ 86 ?: (ssize_t) size; \ 87 } while (0) The problem is, if bit width of var is less then unsigned long, min and max may not protect var from integer overflow, because overflow happens in strtoul_safe_clamp() before checking min and max. To fix such overflow in sysfs_strtoul_clamp(), to make min and max take effect, this patch adds an unsigned long variable, and uses it to macro strtoul_safe_clamp() to convert an unsigned long value in range defined by [min, max]. Then assign this value to var. By this method, if bit width of var is less than unsigned long, integer overflow won't happen before min and max are checking. Now sysfs_strtoul_clamp() can properly handle smaller data type like unsigned int, of cause min and max should be defined in range of unsigned int too.

Stale && dirty keys can be produced in the follow way: After writeback in write_dirty_finish(), dirty keys k1 will replace by clean keys k2 ==>ret = bch_btree_insert(dc->disk.c, &keys, NULL, &w->key); ==>btree_insert_fn(struct btree_op *b_op, struct btree *b) ==>static int bch_btree_insert_node(struct btree *b, struct btree_op *op, struct keylist *insert_keys, atomic_t *journal_ref, Then two steps: A) update k1 to k2 in btree node memory; bch_btree_insert_keys(b, op, insert_keys, replace_key) B) Write the bset(contains k2) to cache disk by a 30s delay work bch_btree_leaf_dirty(b, journal_ref). But before the 30s delay work write the bset to cache device, these things happened: A) GC works, and reclaim the bucket k2 point to; B) Allocator works, and invalidate the bucket k2 point to, and increase the gen of the bucket, and place it into free_inc fifo; C) Until now, the 30s delay work still does not finish work, so in the disk, the key still is k1, it is dirty and stale (its gen is smaller than the gen of the bucket). and then the machine power off suddenly happens; D) When the machine power on again, after the btree reconstruction, the stale dirty key appear. In bch_extent_bad(), when expensive_debug_checks is off, it would treat the dirty key as good even it is stale keys, and it would cause bellow probelms: A) In read_dirty() it would cause machine crash: BUG_ON(ptr_stale(dc->disk.c, &w->key, 0)); B) It could be worse when reads hits stale dirty keys, it would read old incorrect data. This patch tolerate the existence of these stale && dirty keys, and treat them as bad key in bch_extent_bad().

When there are multiple bcache devices, after a reboot the name of bcache devices may change (e.g. current /dev/bcache1 was /dev/bcache0 before reboot). Therefore we need the backing device UUID (sb.uuid) to identify each bcache device. Backing device uuid can be found by program bcache-super-show, but directly exporting backing_dev_uuid by sysfs file /sys/block/bcache<?>/bcache/backing_dev_uuid is a much simpler method. With backing_dev_uuid, and partition uuids from /dev/disk/by-partuuid/, now we can identify each bcache device and its partitions conveniently.

This patch export dc->backing_dev_name to sysfs file /sys/block/bcache<?>/bcache/backing_dev_name, then people or user space tools may know the backing device name of this bcache device. Of cause it can be done by parsing sysfs links, but this method can be much simpler to find the link between bcache device and backing device.

In stats.c:bch_cache_accounting_clear(), a hard coded number '7' is used in memset(). It is because in struct cache_stats, there are 7 atomic_t type members. This is not good when new members added into struct stats, the hard coded number will only clear part of memory. This patch replaces 'sizeof(unsigned long) * 7' by more generic 'sizeof(struct cache_stats))', to avoid potential error if new member added into struct cache_stats.

This is because in should_writeback(), we were hitting a case where the partial stripe condition was returning true and so should_writeback() was returning true early. If that hadn't been the case, it would have hit the would_skip test, and as would_skip == s->iop.bypass == true, should_writeback() would have returned false. Looking at the git history from 'commit 72c27061 ("bcache: Write out full stripes")', it looks like the idea was to optimise for raid5/6: * If a stripe is already dirty, force writes to that stripe to writeback mode - to help build up full stripes of dirty data To fix this issue, make sure that should_writeback() on a discard op never returns true.

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct foo { int stuff; void *entry[]; }; instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Set maximum possible write zeroes sectors in one write zeroes command according to nvme write zeroes command definition. This patch was posted as a part of block-write-zeroes support implementation (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9454859/), but did not make into mainline kernel as it got reverted due to failure on the Linus's machine. In this patch in order to be more cautious, we use NVMe controller's maximum hardware sector size which is calculated based on the controller's MDTS (Maximum Data Transfer Size) field to calculate the maximum sectors for the write zeroes request.

Actually, this is not necessary, we could save the default hctx into ctx->hctxs if the type is not supported when map swqueues and use it directly with ctx->hctxs[type].

When a new I/O request arrives for a bfq_queue, say Q, bfq checks whether that request is close to (a) the head request of some other queue waiting to be served, or (b) the last request dispatched for the in-service queue (in case Q itself is not the in-service queue) If a queue, say Q2, is found for which the above condition holds, then bfq merges Q and Q2, to hopefully get a more sequential I/O in the resulting merged queue, and thus a possibly higher throughput. Case (b) is checked by comparing the new request for Q with the last request dispatched, assuming that the latter necessarily belonged to the in-service queue. Unfortunately, this assumption is no longer always correct, since commit d0edc247 ("block, bfq: inject other-queue I/O into seeky idle queues on NCQ flash"). When the assumption does not hold, queues that must not be merged may be merged, causing unexpected loss of control on per-queue service guarantees. This commit solves this problem by adding an extra field, which stores the actual last request dispatched for the in-service queue, and by using this new field to correctly check case (b).

Writes tend to starve reads. bfq counters this problem by overcharging writes with an inflated service w.r.t. the actual service (number of sector written) they receive. Yet his overcharging is useless, and actually causes unfairness in the opposite direction, when bfq happens to be enforcing strong I/O control. bfq does this enforcing when the scenario is asymmetric, i.e., when some bfq_queue or group of bfq_queues is to be granted a different bandwidth than some other bfq_queue or group of bfq_queues. So, in such a scenario, this commit disables write overcharging. Signed-off-by: NPaolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

The weight of a queue is removed from the list when both the following two conditions become true: (1) the bfq_queue is flagged as inactive (2) the has no in-flight request any longer; Unfortunately, in the rare cases where condition (2) becomes true before condition (1), the removal fails, because the function to remove the weight of the queue (bfq_weights_tree_remove) is rightly invoked in the path that deactivates the bfq_queue, but mistakenly invoked *before* the function that actually performs the deactivation (bfq_deactivate_bfqq). This commits moves the invocation of bfq_weights_tree_remove for condition (1) to after bfq_deactivate_bfqq. As a consequence of this move, it is necessary to add a further reference to the queue when the weight of a queue is added, because the queue might otherwise be freed before bfq_weights_tree_remove is invoked. This commit adds this reference and makes all related modifications. Signed-off-by: NPaolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

In bfq_update_peak_rate, to check whether an I/O request rq is sequential, only the seek distance of rq w.r.t. the last request dispatched is controlled. This is not sufficient for non-rotational storage, where the size of rq is at least as relevant. This commit adds the missing control.

bfq detects the creation of multiple bfq_queues shortly after each other, namely a burst of queue creations in the terminology used in the code. If the burst is large, then no queue in the burst is granted - either I/O-dispatch plugging when the queue remains temporarily idle while in service; - or weight raising, because it causes even longer plugging. In fact, such a plugging tends to lower throughput, while these bursts are typically due to applications or services that spawn multiple processes, to reach a common goal as soon as possible. Examples are a "git grep" or the booting of a system. Unfortunately, disabling plugging may cause a loss of service guarantees in asymmetric scenarios, i.e., if queue weights are differentiated or if more than one group is active. This commit addresses this issue by no longer disabling I/O-dispatch plugging for queues in large bursts.

If the in-service bfq_queue is sync and remains temporarily idle, then I/O dispatching (from other queues) may be plugged. It may be dome for two reasons: either to boost throughput, or to preserve the bandwidth share of the in-service queue. In the first case, if the I/O of the in-service queue, when it finally arrives, consists only of one small I/O request, then it makes sense to plug even the I/O of the in-service queue. In fact, serving such a small request immediately is likely to lower throughput instead of boosting it, whereas waiting a little bit is likely to let that request grow, thanks to request merging, and become more profitable in terms of throughput (this is likely to happen exactly because the I/O of the queue has been detected to boost throughput). On the opposite end, if I/O dispatching is being plugged only to preserve the bandwidth of the in-service queue, then it would be better not to plug also the I/O of the in-service queue, because such a plugging is likely to cause only loss of bandwidth for the queue. Unfortunately, no distinction is made between the two cases, and the I/O of the in-service queue is always plugged in case just a small I/O request arrives. This commit draws this missing distinction and does not perform harmful plugging. Signed-off-by: NPaolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

This is a preparatory commit for commits that need to check only one of the two main reasons for idling. This change should also improve the quality of the code a little bit, by splitting a function that contains very long, non-trivial and little related comments.

In asymmetric scenarios, i.e., when some bfq_queue or bfq_group needs to be guaranteed a different bandwidth than other bfq_queues or bfq_groups, these service guaranteed can be provided only by plugging I/O dispatch, completely or partially, when the queue in service remains temporarily empty. A case where asymmetry is particularly strong is when some active bfq_queues belong to a higher-priority class than some other active bfq_queues. Unfortunately, this important case is not considered at all in the code for detecting asymmetric scenarios. This commit adds the missing logic.

Before commit 18e5a57d ("block, bfq: postpone rq preparation to insert or merge"), the destination queue for a request was chosen by a different hook than the one that then inserted the request. So, between the execution of the two hooks, the bic of the process generating the request could happen to be redirected to a different bfq_queue. As a consequence, the destination bfq_queue stored in the request could be wrong. Such an event does not need to ba handled any longer.

With some unlucky sequences of events, the function bfq_updated_next_req updates the current budget of a bfq_queue to a lower value than the service received by the queue using such a budget. Unfortunately, if this happens, then the return value of the function bfq_bfqq_budget_left becomes inconsistent. This commit solves this problem by lower-bounding the budget computed in bfq_updated_next_req to the service currently charged to the queue.

To boost throughput on devices with internal queueing and in scenarios where device idling is not strictly needed, bfq immediately starts serving a new bfq_queue if the in-service bfq_queue remains without pending I/O, even if new I/O may arrive soon for the latter queue. Then, if such I/O actually arrives soon, bfq preempts the new in-service bfq_queue so as to give the previous queue a chance to go on being served (in case the previous queue should actually be the one to be served, according to its timestamps). However, the in-service bfq_queue, say Q, may also be without further budget when it remains also pending I/O. Since bfq changes budgets dynamically to fit the needs of bfq_queues, this happens more often than one may expect. If this happens, then there is no point in trying to go on serving Q when new I/O arrives for it soon: Q would be expired immediately after being selected for service. This would only cause useless overhead. This commit avoids such a useless selection. Signed-off-by: NPaolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

The speed at which a bfq_queue receives I/O is one of the parameters by which bfq decides whether the queue is soft real-time (i.e., whether the queue contains the I/O of a soft real-time application). In particular, when a bfq_queue remains without outstanding I/O requests, bfq computes the minimum time instant, named soft_rt_next_start, at which the next request of the queue may arrive for the queue to be deemed as soft real time. Unfortunately this filtering may cause problems with a queue in interactive weight raising. In fact, such a queue may be conveying the I/O needed to load a soft real-time application. The latter will actually exhibit a soft real-time I/O pattern after it finally starts doing its job. But, if soft_rt_next_start is updated for an interactive bfq_queue, and the queue has received a lot of service before remaining with no outstanding request (likely to happen on a fast device), then soft_rt_next_start is assigned such a high value that, for a very long time, the queue is prevented from being possibly considered as soft real time. This commit removes the updating of soft_rt_next_start for bfq_queues in interactive weight raising.

The mtip32xx driver uses managed resources for DMA coherent memory and irqs, but then always pairs them with free calls anyway, making the resource tracking rather pointless. Given some DMA allocations are transient anyway, the irq freeing seems to require ordering vs other hardware access the best solution seems to be to stop using the managed resource API entirely.
