* dm thin: support discard with non power of two block sizeMike Snitzer2012-10-121-10/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Support discards when the pool's block size is not a power of 2. The block layer assumes discard_granularity is a power of 2 (in blkdev_issue_discard), so we set this to the largest power of 2 that is a divides into the number of sectors in each block, but never less than DATA_DEV_BLOCK_SIZE_MIN_SECTORS. This patch eliminates the "Discard support must be disabled when the block size is not a power of 2" constraint that was imposed in commit 55f2b8b ("dm thin: support for non power of 2 pool blocksize"). That commit was incomplete: using a block size that is not a power of 2 shouldn't mean disabling discard support on the device completely.

Not a huge round this time, it contains: - First series from Kent cleaning up and generalizing bio allocation and freeing. - WRITE_SAME support from Martin. - Mikulas patches to prevent O_DIRECT crashes when someone changes the block size of a device. - Make bio_split() work on data-less bio's (like trim/discards). - A few other minor fixups." Fixed up silent semantic mis-merge as per Mikulas Patocka and Andrew Morton. It is due to the VM no longer using a prio-tree (see commit 6b2dbba8b6ac: "mm: replace vma prio_tree with an interval tree").

| * block: Implement support for WRITE SAMEMartin K. Petersen2012-09-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The WRITE SAME command supported on some SCSI devices allows the same block to be efficiently replicated throughout a block range. Only a single logical block is transferred from the host and the storage device writes the same data to all blocks described by the I/O. This patch implements support for WRITE SAME in the block layer. The blkdev_issue_write_same() function can be used by filesystems and block drivers to replicate a buffer across a block range. This can be used to efficiently initialize software RAID devices, etc. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

| * block: Add bio_clone_bioset(), bio_clone_kmalloc()Kent Overstreet2012-09-093-27/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, there was bio_clone() but it only allocated from the fs bio set; as a result various users were open coding it and using __bio_clone(). This changes bio_clone() to become bio_clone_bioset(), and then we add bio_clone() and bio_clone_kmalloc() as wrappers around it, making use of the functionality the last patch adedd. This will also help in a later patch changing how bio cloning works.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, dm_rq_clone_bio_info needed to be freed by the bio's destructor to avoid a memory leak in the blk_rq_prep_clone() error path. This gets rid of a memory allocation and means we can kill dm_rq_bio_destructor. The _rq_bio_info_cache kmem cache is unused now and needs to be deleted, but due to the way io_pool is used and overloaded this looks not quite trivial so I'm leaving it for a later patch. v6: Fix comment on struct dm_rq_clone_bio_info, per Tejun Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Alasdair Kergon <agk@redhat.com> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

A lot of activities this round including considerable API and behavior cleanups. * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item. The handling of the timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors. delayed_work is updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as expected. * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded timer+work usages. mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added. These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface and behave like timer which is executed with process context. * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and half-broken under certain circumstances. This problem doesn't exist for non-reentrant workqueues. While non-reentrancy check isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario the overhead isn't too high. All workqueues are made non-reentrant. This removes the distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and flush_[delayed_]_work_sync(). The former is now as strong as the latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished execution of any previous queueing on return. * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU hotplug handling significantly. * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU hotplug. There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them." Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts. Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more. * 'for-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: (46 commits) workqueue: remove spurious WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq()) from try_to_grab_pending() workqueue: use cwq_set_max_active() helper for workqueue_set_max_active() workqueue: introduce cwq_set_max_active() helper for thaw_workqueues() workqueue: remove @delayed from cwq_dec_nr_in_flight() workqueue: fix possible stall on try_to_grab_pending() of a delayed work item workqueue: use hotcpu_notifier() for workqueue_cpu_down_callback() workqueue: use __cpuinit instead of __devinit for cpu callbacks workqueue: rename manager_mutex to assoc_mutex workqueue: WORKER_REBIND is no longer necessary for idle rebinding workqueue: WORKER_REBIND is no longer necessary for busy rebinding workqueue: reimplement idle worker rebinding workqueue: deprecate __cancel_delayed_work() workqueue: reimplement cancel_delayed_work() using try_to_grab_pending() workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of __cancel + queue workqueue: use irqsafe timer for delayed_work workqueue: clean up delayed_work initializers and add missing one workqueue: make deferrable delayed_work initializer names consistent workqueue: cosmetic whitespace updates for macro definitions workqueue: deprecate system_nrt[_freezable]_wq workqueue: deprecate flush[_delayed]_work_sync() ...

Mark them deprecated and convert all users to flush[_delayed]_work(). If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are non-reentrant and the regular flushes guarantee that the work item is not pending or running on any CPU on return, so there's no reason to use the sync flushes at all and they're going away.

Avoid this by checking the discard limits of the pool's data device. If an incompatibility is found then the pool's 'discard passdown' feature is disabled. Change thin_io_hints to ensure that a thin device always uses the same queue limits as its pool device. Introduce requested_pf to track whether or not the table line originally contained the no_discard_passdown flag and use this directly for table output. We prepare the correct setting for discard_passdown directly in bind_control_target (called from pool_io_hints) and store it in adjusted_pf rather than waiting until we have access to pool->pf in pool_preresume.

This is to reduce the chance that requests not respecting the hardware limits will reach the device. DM recalculates queue limits based only on devices which currently exist in the table. This creates a problem in the event all devices are temporarily removed such as all paths being lost in multipath. DM will reset the limits to the maximum permissible, which can then assemble requests which exceed the limits of the paths when the paths are restored. The request will fail the blk_rq_check_limits() test when sent to a path with lower limits, and will be retried without end by multipath. This became a much bigger issue after v3.6 commit fe86cdcef ("block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking drivers").

Now set it according to the flags on underlying devices. If there is at least one device which should not contribute, set the flag to zero: If a device, such as fast SSD storage, is not suitable for supplying entropy, a request-based queue stacked over it will not be either.

This turns out to be incorrect when processing discards that do not exactly cover a complete number of blocks, so the target must always set discard_zeroes_data_unsupported. The thin pool target will zero blocks when they are allocated if the skip_block_zeroing feature is not specified. The block layer may send a discard that only partly covers a block.

In reality it is the number of 'near' copies. So change it to make this number explicit. This bug makes it possible to run arrays without enough drives present, which is dangerous. It is appropriate for an -stable kernel, but will almost certainly need to be modified for some of them.

Also activating a spare doesn't always require updating the metadata as the update on 'recovery-completed' is usually sufficient. However the introduction of 'replacement' devices have made these transitions sometimes more important. For example the 'Replacement' flag isn't cleared until the original device is removed, so we need to ensure a metadata update after that 'spare' is removed. So set MD_CHANGE_DEVS whenever a spare is activated or removed, to complement the current situation where it is set when a spare is added or a device is failed (or a number of other less common situations). This is suitable for -stable as out-of-data metadata could lead to data corruption. This is only relevant for 3.3 and later 9when 'replacement' as introduced.

However 'calc_degraded' only pays attention to the primary device, not the replacement, so the array appears to become degraded, which is wrong. So teach 'calc_degraded' to consider any replacement if a primary device is faulty. This is suitable for -stable as an incorrect 'degraded' value can confuse md and could lead to data corruption.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A 'struct r10bio' has an array of per-copy information at the end. This array is declared with size [0] and r10bio_pool_alloc allocates enough extra space to store the per-copy information depending on the number of copies needed. So declaring a 'struct r10bio on the stack isn't going to work. It won't allocate enough space, and memory corruption will ensue. So in the two places where this is done, declare a sufficiently large structure and use that instead. The two call-sites of this bug were introduced in 3.4 and 3.5 so this is suitable for both those kernels. The patch will have to be modified for 3.4 as it only has one bug.

So remove the counting of active plugs and allow 'pending writes' to be activated at any time, not just when no plugs are active. This is only relevant when there is a write-intent bitmap, and the updating of the bitmap will likely introduce enough delay that the single-threading of bitmap updates will be enough to collect large numbers of updates together. Removing this will make it easier to centralise the unplug code, and will clear the other for other unplug enhancements which have a measurable effect.

So there will be one read_target (The other device) and zero write targets. This condition causes md/raid1 to abort the resync assuming that it has finished - without known bad blocks this would be true. When there are no write targets because of the presence of bad blocks we should only skip over the area covered by the bad block. RAID10 already gets this right, raid1 doesn't. Or didn't. As this can cause a 'sync' to abort early and appear to have succeeded it could lead to some data corruption, so it suitable for -stable.

In such condition, if making request size bigger will cause some disks idle, the total throughput will actually drop. A good example is doing a readahead in a two-disk raid1 setup. So when should we split big requests? We absolutly don't want to split big request to very small requests. Even in SSD, big request transfer is more efficient. This patch only considers request with size above optimal io size. If all disks are busy, is it worth doing a split? Say optimal io size is 16k, two requests 32k and two disks. We can let each disk run one 32k request, or split the requests to 4 16k requests and each disk runs two. It's hard to say which case is better, depending on hardware. So only consider case where there are idle disks. For readahead, split is always better in this case. And in my test, below patch can improve > 30% thoughput. Hmm, not 100%, because disk isn't 100% busy. Such case can happen not just in readahead, for example, in directio. But I suppose directio usually will have bigger IO depth and make all disks busy, so I ignored it. Note: if the raid uses any hard disk, we don't prevent merging. That will make performace worse.

And the original distance based algorithm sometimes can cause severe performance issue for SSD raid. Considering two thread groups, one accesses file A, the other access file B. The first group will access one disk and the second will access the other disk, because requests are near from one group and far between groups. In this case, read balance might keep one disk very busy but the other relative idle. For SSD, we should try best to distribute requests to as many disks as possible. There isn't spindle move penality anyway. With below patch, I can see more than 50% throughput improvement sometimes depending on workloads. The only exception is small requests can be merged to a big request which typically can drive higher throughput for SSD too. Such small requests are sequential reads. Unlike hard disk, sequential read which can't be merged (for example direct IO, or read without readahead) can be ignored for SSD. Again there is no spindle move penality. readahead dispatches small requests and such requests can be merged. Last patch can help detect sequential read well, at least if concurrent read number isn't greater than raid disk number. In that case, distance based algorithm doesn't work well too. V2: For hard disk and SSD mixed raid, doesn't use distance based algorithm for random IO too. This makes the algorithm generic for raid with SSD.
