* bcache: Advertise that flushes are supportedKent Overstreet2013-07-121-1/+7
| | | | | | | | Whoops - bcache's flush/FUA was mostly correct, but flushes get filtered out unless we say we support them... Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <kmo@daterainc.com> Cc: linux-stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> # >= v3.10
* bcache: Use standard utility codeKent Overstreet2013-07-011-69/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some of bcache's utility code has made it into the rest of the kernel, so drop the bcache versions. Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error handling. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
* bcache: FUA fixesKent Overstreet2013-07-011-1/+12
| | | | | | | Journal writes need to be marked FUA, not just REQ_FLUSH. And btree node writes have... weird ordering requirements. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
* bcache: Write out full stripesKent Overstreet2013-06-261-16/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we're tracking dirty data per stripe, we can add two optimizations 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 * When flushing dirty data, preferentially write out full stripes first if there are any.

* bcache: Track dirty data by stripeKent Overstreet2013-06-261-1/+2
| | | | | | | | To make background writeback aware of raid5/6 stripes, we first need to track the amount of dirty data within each stripe - we do this by breaking up the existing sectors_dirty into per stripe atomic_ts Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
* bcache: Fix/revamp tracepointsKent Overstreet2013-06-261-31/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null pointer deref in one of the tracepoints. Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it was changed to an empty inline function. Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

* bcache: Style/checkpatch fixesKent Overstreet2013-03-251-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | Took out some nested functions, and fixed some more checkpatch complaints. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> Cc: linux-bcache@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
* bcache: A block layer cacheKent Overstreet2013-03-231-0/+1409
Does writethrough and writeback caching, handles unclean shutdown, and has a bunch of other nifty features motivated by real world usage. See the wiki at http://bcache.evilpiepirate.org for more. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
