| * badblocks: fix overlapping check for clearingTomasz Majchrzak2016-10-121-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current bad block clear implementation assumes the range to clear overlaps with at least one bad block already stored. If given range to clear precedes first bad block in a list, the first entry is incorrectly updated. Check not only if stored block end is past clear block end but also if stored block start is before clear block end.

| * | latent_entropy: Mark functions with __latent_entropyEmese Revfy2016-10-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and variables. If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields. These specific functions have been selected because they are init functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of latent entropy.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlocking a mutex twice is wrong.

* | | | block: invalidate the page cache when issuing BLKZEROOUTDarrick J. Wong2016-10-111-6/+12
| |_|/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "fallocate for block devices", v11. This is a patchset to fix page cache coherency with BLKZEROOUT and implement fallocate for block devices. The first patch is a fix to the existing BLKZEROOUT ioctl to invalidate the page cache if the zeroing command to the underlying device succeeds. Without this patch we still have the pagecache coherence bug that's been in the kernel forever. The second patch changes the internal block device functions to reject attempts to discard or zeroout that are not aligned to the logical block size. Previously, we only checked that the start/len parameters were 512-byte aligned, which caused kernel BUG_ONs for unaligned IOs to 4k-LBA devices. The third patch creates an fallocate handler for block devices, wires up the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE flag to zeroing-discard, and connects FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE to write-same so that we can have a consistent fallocate interface between files and block devices. It also allows the combination of PUNCH_HOLE and NO_HIDE_STALE to invoke non-zeroing discard. Test cases for the new block device fallocate are now in xfstests as generic/349-351. This patch (of 3): Invalidate the page cache (as a regular O_DIRECT write would do) to avoid returning stale cache contents at a later time.

E.g. any carefully sorted out CPU affinity will just be completely messed up. The rebuild also doesn't really help for the common case of cpu hotplug, which is soft onlining / offlining of cpus - in this case we should just leave the queue and irq mapping as is. If it actually worked it would have helped in the case of physical cpu hotplug, although for that we'd need a way to actually notify the driver. Note that drivers may already be able to accommodate such a topology change on their own, e.g. using the reset_controller sysfs file in NVMe will cause the driver to get things right for this case. With the rebuild removed we will simplify retain the queue mapping for a soft offlined CPU that will work when it comes back online, and will map any newly onlined CPU to queue 0 until the driver initiates a rebuild of the queue map.

Still from the blktrace output, we can after searching a bit, identify the request that wasn't dispatched: 8,0 11 152 81.092472813 804 A WM 141698288 + 8 <- (8,1) 141696240 8,0 11 153 81.092472889 804 Q WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1] 8,0 11 154 81.092473207 804 G WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1] 8,0 11 206 81.092496118 804 I WM 141698288 + 8 ( 22911) [xfsaild/sda1] <==== 'I' means Inserted (into the IO scheduler) ===================================> 8,0 0 289372 96.718761435 0 D WM 141698288 + 8 (15626265317) [swapper/0] <==== Only 15s later the CFQ scheduler dispatches the request ======================> As we can see above, in this particular example CFQ took 15 seconds to dispatch this request. Going back to the full trace, we can see that the xfsaild queue had plenty of opportunity to run, and it was selected as the active queue many times. It would just always be preempted by something else (example): 8,0 1 0 81.117912979 0 m N cfq1618SN / insert_request 8,0 1 0 81.117913419 0 m N cfq1618SN / add_to_rr 8,0 1 0 81.117914044 0 m N cfq1618SN / preempt 8,0 1 0 81.117914398 0 m N cfq767A / slice expired t=1 8,0 1 0 81.117914755 0 m N cfq767A / resid=40 8,0 1 0 81.117915340 0 m N / served: vt=1948520448 min_vt=1948520448 8,0 1 0 81.117915858 0 m N cfq767A / sl_used=1 disp=0 charge=0 iops=1 sect=0 where cfq767 is the xfsaild queue and cfq1618 corresponds to one of the ScyllaDB IO dispatchers. The requests preempting the xfsaild queue are synchronous requests. That's a characteristic of ScyllaDB workloads, as we only ever issue O_DIRECT requests. While it can be argued that preempting ASYNC requests in favor of SYNC is part of the CFQ logic, I don't believe that doing so for 15+ seconds is anyone's goal. Moreover, unless I am misunderstanding something, that breaks the expectation set by the "fifo_expire_async" tunable, which in my system is set to the default. Looking at the code, it seems to me that the issue is that after we make an async queue active, there is no guarantee that it will execute any request. When the queue itself tests if it cfq_may_dispatch() it can bail if it sees SYNC requests in flight. An incoming request from another queue can also preempt it in such situation before we have the chance to execute anything (as seen in the trace above). This patch sets the must_dispatch flag if we notice that we have requests that are already fifo_expired. This flag is always cleared after cfq_dispatch_request() returns from cfq_dispatch_requests(), so it won't pin the queue for subsequent requests (unless they are themselves expired) Care is taken during preempt to still allow rt requests to preempt us regardless. Testing my workload with this patch applied produces much better results. From the application side I see no timeouts, and the open() latency histogram generated by systemtap looks much better, with the worst outlier at 131ms: Latency histogram of xfs_buf_lock acquisition (microseconds): value |-------------------------------------------------- count 0 | 11 1 |@@@@ 161 2 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 1966 4 |@ 54 8 | 36 16 | 7 32 | 0 64 | 0 ~ 1024 | 0 2048 | 0 4096 | 1 8192 | 1 16384 | 2 32768 | 0 65536 | 0 131072 | 1 262144 | 0 524288 | 0 Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glauber@scylladb.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> CC: linux-block@vger.kernel.org CC: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glauber@scylladb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, if slice is expired, we start a new slice. If a bio is queued, we keep on extending slice by throtle_slice interval (100ms). This worked well as long as pending timer function got executed with-in few milli seconds of scheduled time. But looks like with recent changes in timer subsystem, slack can be much longer depending on the expiry time of the scheduled timer. commit 500462a9de65 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel") This means, by the time timer function gets executed, it is possible the delay from scheduled time is more than 100ms. That means current code will conclude that existing slice has expired and a new one needs to be started. New slice will be 100ms by default and that will not be sufficient to meet rate requirement of group given the bio size and bio will not be dispatched and we will start a new timer function to wait. And when that timer expires, same process will repeat and we will wait again and this can easily be an infinite loop. Solve this issue by starting a new slice only if throttle gropup is empty. If it is not empty, that means there should be an active slice going on. Ideally it should not be expired but given the slack, it is possible that it has expired.

This patch fixes the following kernel crash: > [ 172.660142] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 > [ 172.660229] IP: [<ffffffff811e53b4>] bio_trim+0xf/0x2a > [ 172.660289] PGD 7faf3e067 PUD 7f9279067 PMD 0 > [ 172.660399] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP > [...] > [ 172.664780] Call Trace: > [ 172.664813] [<ffffffffa007f3be>] ? raid1_make_request+0x2e8/0xad7 [raid1] > [ 172.664846] [<ffffffff811f07da>] ? blk_queue_split+0x377/0x3d4 > [ 172.664880] [<ffffffffa005fb5f>] ? md_make_request+0xf6/0x1e9 [md_mod] > [ 172.664912] [<ffffffff811eb860>] ? generic_make_request+0xb5/0x155 > [ 172.664947] [<ffffffffa0445c89>] ? prio_io+0x85/0x95 [bcache] > [ 172.664981] [<ffffffffa0448252>] ? register_cache_set+0x355/0x8d0 [bcache] > [ 172.665016] [<ffffffffa04497d3>] ? register_bcache+0x1006/0x1174 [bcache] The issue can be reproduced by the following steps: - create one raid1 over two virtio-blk - build bcache device over the above raid1 and another cache device and bucket size is set as 2Mbytes - set cache mode as writeback - run random write over ext4 on the bcache device Fixes: 54efd50(block: make generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios) Reported-by: Sebastian Roesner <sroesner-kernelorg@roesner-online.de> Reported-by: Eric Wheeler <bcache@lists.ewheeler.net> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org (4.3+) Cc: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Acked-by: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

* block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opfJens Axboe2016-08-077-32/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger, rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break at compile time instead of at runtime. No intended functional changes in this commit.
