Prior to 25520d55 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk") we needed to temporarily add a zero-capacity disk before registering for blk-integrity. But adding a zero-capacity disk caused the partition table scanning to bail early, and this resulted in partitions not coming up after a probe of the BTT or blk namespaces. We can now register for integrity before the disk has been added, and this fixes the rescan problems.

When a sector mode namespace is initially created, the arena's err_lock is not initialized. If, on the other hand, the namespace already exists, the mutex is initialized. To fix the issue, I moved the mutex initialization into the arena_alloc, which is called by both discover_arenas and create_arenas. This was discovered on an older kernel where mutex_trylock checks the count to determine whether the lock is held. Because the data structure is kzalloc-d, that count was 0 (held), and I/O to the device would hang forever waiting for the lock to be released (see btt_write_pg, for example). Current kernels have a different mutex implementation that checks for a non-null owner, and so this doesn't show up as a problem. If that lock were ever contended, it might cause issues, but you'd have to be really unlucky, I think.

Due to a spec misinterpretation, the Linux implementation of the BTT log area had different padding scheme from other implementations, such as UEFI and NVML. This fixes the padding scheme, and defaults to it for new BTT layouts. We attempt to detect the padding scheme in use when probing for an existing BTT. If we detect the older/incompatible scheme, we continue using it.

由 Vishal Verma 提交于
Clearing errors or badblocks during a BTT write requires sending an ACPI DSM, which means potentially sleeping. Since a BTT IO happens in atomic context (preemption disabled, spinlocks may be held), we cannot perform error clearing in the course of an IO. Due to this error clearing for BTT IOs has hitherto been disabled. In this patch we move error clearing out of the atomic section, and thus re-enable error clearing with BTTs. When we are about to add a block to the free list, we check if it was previously marked as an error, and if it was, we add it to the freelist, but also set a flag that says error clearing will be required. We then drop the lane (ending the atomic context), and send a zero buffer so that the error can be cleared. The error flag in the free list is protected by the nd 'lane', and is set only be a thread while it holds that lane. When the error is cleared, the flag is cleared, but while holding a mutex for that freelist index. When writing, we check for two things - 1/ If the freelist mutex is held or if the error flag is set. If so, this is an error block that is being (or about to be) cleared. 2/ If the block is a known badblock based on nsio->bb The second check is required because the BTT map error flag for a map entry only gets set when an error LBA is read. If we write to a new location that may not have the map error flag set, but still might be in the region's badblock list, we can trigger an EIO on the write, which is undesirable and completely avoidable.

The IO context conversion for rw_bytes missed a case in the BTT write path (btt_map_write) which should've been marked as atomic. In reality this should not cause a problem, because map writes are to small for nsio_rw_bytes to attempt error clearing, but it should be fixed for posterity.

Currently if some one try to advance bvec beyond it's size we simply dump WARN_ONCE and continue to iterate beyond bvec array boundaries. This simply means that we endup dereferencing/corrupting random memory region. Sane reaction would be to propagate error back to calling context But bvec_iter_advance's calling context is not always good for error handling. For safity reason let truncate iterator size to zero which will break external iteration loop which prevent us from unpredictable memory range corruption. And even it caller ignores an error, it will corrupt it's own bvecs, not others. This patch does: - Return error back to caller with hope that it will react on this - Truncate iterator size Code was added long time ago here 4550dd6c, luckily no one hit it in real life :) Signed-off-by: NDmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Reviewed-by: NMing Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: NMartin K.

If we had badblocks/poison in the metadata area of a BTT, recreating the BTT would not clear the poison in all cases, notably the flog area. This is because rw_bytes will only clear errors if the request being sent down is 512B aligned and sized. Make sure that when writing the map and info blocks, the rw_bytes being sent are of the correct size/alignment. For the flog, instead of doing the smaller log_entry writes only, first do a 'wipe' of the entire area by writing zeroes in large enough chunks so that errors get cleared.

nsio_rw_bytes can clear media errors, but this cannot be done while we are in an atomic context due to locking within ACPI. From the BTT, ->rw_bytes may be called either from atomic or process context depending on whether the calls happen during initialization or during IO. During init, we want to ensure error clearing happens, and the flag marking process context allows nsio_rw_bytes to do that.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch.

Implement the base infrastructure for libnvdimm PFN devices. Similar to BTT devices they take a namespace as a backing device and layer functionality on top. In this case the functionality is reserving space for an array of 'struct page' entries to be handed out through pfn_to_page(). For now this is just the basic libnvdimm-device-model for configuring the base PFN device. As the namespace claiming mechanism for PFN devices is mostly identical to BTT devices drivers/nvdimm/claim.c is created to house the common bits.

When a BTT is instantiated on a namespace it must validate the namespace uuid matches the 'parent_uuid' stored in the btt superblock. This property enforces that changing the namespace UUID invalidates all former BTT instances on that storage. For "IO namespaces" that don't have a label or UUID, the parent_uuid is set to zero, and this validation is skipped. For such cases, old BTTs have to be invalidated by forcing the namespace to raw mode, and overwriting the BTT info blocks.

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.

Upon detection of an unarmed dimm in a region, arrange for descendant BTT, PMEM, or BLK instances to be read-only. A dimm is primarily marked "unarmed" via flags passed by platform firmware (NFIT). The flags in the NFIT memory device sub-structure indicate the state of the data on the nvdimm relative to its energy source or last "flush to persistence". For the most part there is nothing the driver can do but advertise the state of these flags in sysfs and emit a message if firmware indicates that the contents of the device may be corrupted. However, for the case of ACPI_NFIT_MEM_ARMED, the driver can arrange for the block devices incorporating that nvdimm to be marked read-only. This is a safe default as the data is still available and new writes are held off until the administrator either forces read-write mode, or the energy source becomes armed. A 'read_only' attribute is added to REGION devices to allow for overriding the default read-only policy of all descendant block devices. Signed-off-by: NDan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
