| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The block size for the thin-pool's data device must remained fixed for the life of the thin-pool. Disallow any attempt to change the thin-pool's data block size. It should be noted that attempting to change the data block size via thin-pool table reload will be ignored as a side-effect of the thin-pool handover that the thin-pool target does during thin-pool table reload. Here is an example outcome of attempting to load a thin-pool table that reduced the thin-pool's data block size from 1024K to 512K.

Bart Van Assche reported that he had multipath IO lockup when he was performing cable pull tests. Analysis showed that the multipath device had a single path group with both paths active, but that the path group itself was not active. During the multipath device state transitions 'queue_io' got set but nothing could clear it. Clearing 'queue_io' only happens in __choose_pgpath(), but it won't be called if multipath_busy() returns true due to pg_ready() returning false when 'queue_io' is set. As such the !pg_ready() check in multipath_busy() is wrong because new IO will not be sent to multipath target and the multipath state change won't happen. That results in multipath IO lockup. The intent of multipath_busy() is to avoid unnecessary cycles of dequeue + request_fn + requeue if it is known that the multipath device will requeue. Such "busy" situations would be: - path group is being activated - there is no path and the multipath is setup to requeue if no path Fix multipath_busy() to return "busy" early only for these specific situations.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a race condition between the atomic_dec_and_test(&io->count) in dec_count() and the waking of the sync_io() thread. If the thread is spuriously woken immediately after the decrement it may exit, making the on stack io struct invalid, yet the dec_count could still be using it.

| * dm: allocate a special workqueue for deferred device removalMikulas Patocka2014-07-101-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit 2c140a246dc ("dm: allow remove to be deferred") introduced a deferred removal feature for the device mapper. When this feature is used (by passing a flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE to DM_DEV_REMOVE_CMD ioctl) and the user tries to remove a device that is currently in use, the device will be removed automatically in the future when the last user closes it. Device mapper used the system workqueue to perform deferred removals. However, some targets (dm-raid1, dm-mpath, dm-stripe) flush work items scheduled for the system workqueue from their destructor. If the destructor itself is called from the system workqueue during deferred removal, it introduces a possible deadlock - the workqueue tries to flush itself. Fix this possible deadlock by introducing a new workqueue for deferred removals. We allocate just one workqueue for all dm targets. The ability of dm targets to process IOs isn't dependent on deferred removal of unused targets, so a deadlock due to shared workqueue isn't possible. Also, cleanup local_init() to eliminate potential for returning success on failure.

* | md: flush writes before starting a recovery.NeilBrown2014-07-031-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we write to a degraded array which has a bitmap, we make sure the relevant bit in the bitmap remains set when the write completes (so a 're-add' can quickly rebuilt a temporarily-missing device). If, immediately after such a write starts, we incorporate a spare, commence recovery, and skip over the region where the write is happening (because the 'needs recovery' flag isn't set yet), then that write will not get to the new device. Once the recovery finishes the new device will be trusted, but will have incorrect data, leading to possible corruption. We cannot set the 'needs recovery' flag when we start the write as we do not know easily if the write will be "degraded" or not. That depends on details of the particular raid level and particular write request. This patch fixes a corruption issue of long standing and so it suitable for any -stable kernel. It applied correctly to 3.0 at least and will minor editing to earlier kernels.

| * dm thin: update discard_granularity to reflect the thin-pool blocksizeLukas Czerner2014-06-111-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DM thinp already checks whether the discard_granularity of the data device is a factor of the thin-pool block size. But when using the dm-thin-pool's discard passdown support, DM thinp was not selecting the max of the underlying data device's discard_granularity and the thin-pool's block size. Update set_discard_limits() to set discard_granularity to the max of these values. This enables blkdev_issue_discard() to properly align the discards that are sent to the DM thin device on a full block boundary. As such each discard will now cover an entire DM thin-pool block and the block will be reclaimed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add DM core support for disabling WRITE SAME on first failure to both request-based and bio-based targets. The need to disable WRITE SAME stems from SCSI enabling it by default but then disabling it when it fails. When SCSI does this it returns "permanent target failure, do not retry" using -EREMOTEIO. Update DM core to only disable WRITE SAME on failure if the returned error is -EREMOTEIO. Commit f84cb8a4 ("dm mpath: disable WRITE SAME if it fails") implemented multipath specific disabling of WRITE SAME if it fails. However, as that commit detailed, the multipath-only solution doesn't go far enough if bio-based DM targets are stacked ontop of the request-based dm-multipath target (as is commonly done using dm-linear to support partitions on multipath devices, via kpartx).

The resync-thread issues the first set of read requests and this adds execution latency and slows down the scheduling of the next sync_request(). The current rebuild/resync speed of raid5 is not much faster than what rotational HDDs can sustain. Testing the following patch on a 6-drive array, I can increase the rebuild speed from 100 MB/s to 175 MB/s. The sync_request() now just sets STRIPE_HANDLE and releases the stripe. This creates some more parallelism between the resync-thread and raid5 kernel daemon. Signed-off-by: Eivind Sarto <esarto@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A chunk aligned read increases counter active_aligned_reads and decreases it after sub-device handle it successfully. But when a read error occurs, the read redispatched by raid5d, and the active_aligned_reads will not be decreased until we can grab a stripe head in retry_aligned_read. Now suppose, a barrier io comes, set conf->quiesce to 2, and wait until both active_stripes and active_aligned_reads are zero. The retried chunk aligned read gets stuck at get_active_stripe waiting until conf->quiesce becomes 0. Retry_aligned_read and barrier io are waiting each other now. One possible solution is that we ignore conf->quiesce, let the retried aligned read finish. I reproduced this deadlock and test this patch on centos6.0 Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

In my environment, I can guarantee 2 will not happen. And BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES can guarantee 2 too. For 1, it's not common too. block plug mechanism will dispatch a bunch of sequentail small requests together. And since I'm using SSD, I'm using small chunk size. It's rare case stripe cache is really useful. So I'd like to avoid the copy from bio to stripe cache and it's very helpful for performance. In my 1M randwrite tests, avoid the copy can increase the performance more than 30%. Of course, this shouldn't be enabled by default. It's reported enabling BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES can harm some workloads before, so I added an option to control it.

A stripe will currently be queued on the release_list with a stripe reference count > 1. This can cause the raid5 kernel thread(s) to dequeue the stripe and decrement the refcount without doing any other useful processing of the stripe. The are two cases when the stripe can be put on the release_list multiple times before it is actually handled by the kernel thread(s). 1) make_request() activates the stripe processing in 4k increments. When a write request is large enough to span multiple chunks of a stripe_head, the first 4k chunk adds the stripe to the plug list. The next 4k chunk that is processed for the same stripe puts the stripe on the release_list with a refcount=2. This can cause the kernel thread to process and decrement the stripe before the stripe us unplugged, which again will put it back on the release_list. 2) Whenever IO is scheduled on a stripe (pre-read and/or write), the stripe refcount is set to the number of active IO (for each chunk). The stripe is released as each IO complete, and can be queued and dequeued multiple times on the release_list, until its refcount finally reached zero. This simple patch will ensure a stripe is only queued on the release_list when its refcount=1 and is ready to be handled by the kernel thread(s). I added some instrumentation to raid5 and counted the number of times striped were queued on the release_list for a variety of write IO sizes. Without this patch the number of times stripes got queued on the release_list was 100-500% higher than with the patch. The excess queuing will increase with the IO size. The patch also improved throughput by 5-10%. Signed-off-by: Eivind Sarto <esarto@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

However for a degraded RAID6 we currently perform the reads as soon as we see that a write is pending. This significantly hurts throughput. So: - when handle_stripe_dirtying find a block that it wants on a device that is failed, set STRIPE_DELAY, instead of doing nothing, and - when fetch_block detects that a read might be required to satisfy a write, only perform the read if STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE is set, and if we would actually need to read something to complete the write. This also helps RAID5, though less often as RAID5 supports a read-modify-write cycle. For RAID5 the read is performed too early only if the write is not a full 4K aligned write (i.e. no an R5_OVERWRITE). Also clean up a couple of horrible bits of formatting.

All from Christoph. - API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph. - Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for blk-mq from Ming Lei. - A flew of blk-mq updates from me: * Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU to queue mapping. This enables optimizations in the driver. * Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never really worked well for blk-mq. percpu_ida relies on the fact that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to exhausting) the tag space. * Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq * Various fixes for IO timeouts. * API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations. - Remove 'buffer' from struct request. This is ancient code, from when requests were always virtually mapped. Kill it, to reclaim some space in struct request. From me. - Remove 'magic' from blk_plug. Since we store these on the stack and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just get rid of it. From me. - Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two atomic reads. Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing IO on blk-mq. From me. - File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/. This includes bio.c, bio-integrity.c, bounce.c, and ioprio.c. From me, from a discussion on lkml. That should describe the meat of the pull request.

However it didn't set MD_RECOVERY_INTR so ->finish_reshape() would not know that the reshape didn't complete. This only happens when mddev->ro is set and normally reshape threads don't run in that situation. But raid5 and raid10 can start a reshape thread during "run" is the array is in the middle of a reshape. They do this even if ->ro is set. So it is best to set MD_RECOVERY_INTR before abortingg the sync thread, just in case. Though it rare for this to trigger a problem it can cause data corruption because the reshape isn't finished properly. So it is suitable for any stable which the offending commit was applied to.

However in that case MD_RECOVERY_INTR isn't set. If a RESHAPE had been requested, then ->finish_reshape() will be called and it will think the reshape was successful even though nothing happened. Normally a resync will not be requested if ->ro is set, but if an array is stopped while a reshape is on-going, then when the array is started, the reshape will be restarted. If the array is also set read-only at this point, the reshape will instantly appear to success, resulting in data corruption. Consequently, this patch is suitable for any -stable kernel.

Add a fixed timeout so IOs can only be held for a maximum of 60 seconds. If LVM is going to resize a thin-pool that is out of data space it needs to be prompt about it.

The code assumed that the work item keeps executing on a single CPU, so it didn't use synchronization when accessing this structure. If a CPU is disabled by writing 0 to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online, the work item could be moved to another CPU. This causes dm-crypt crashes, like the following, because the code starts using an incorrect ablkcipher_request: smpboot: CPU 7 is now offline BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000130 IP: [<ffffffffa1862b3d>] crypt_convert+0x12d/0x3c0 [dm_crypt] ...

The structure ablkcipher_request is accessed via a pointer from convert_context. Consequently, if the work item is rescheduled to a different CPU, the thread still uses the same ablkcipher_request. This change may undermine performance improvements intended by commit c0297721 ("dm crypt: scale to multiple cpus") on select hardware. In practice no performance difference was observed on recent hardware. But regardless, correctness is more important than performance.
