2015-06-27block: fix bogus EFAULT error from SG_IO ioctlPaolo Bonzini
Whenever blk_fill_sghdr_rq fails, its errno code is ignored and changed to EFAULT. This can cause very confusing errors: $ sg_persist -k /dev/sda persistent reservation in: pass through os error: Bad address The fix is trivial, just propagate the return value from blk_fill_sghdr_rq.

This reverts commit 5f1b670d0bef508a5554d92525f5f6d00d640b38. Justification for revert as reported in this dm-devel post: https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-June/msg00160.html this change should not be pushed to mainline yet. Firstly, Christoph has a newer version of the patch that fixes silent data corruption problem: https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-May/msg00229.html And the new version still depends on LLDDs to always complete requests to the end when error happens, while block API doesn't enforce such a requirement. If the assumption is ever broken, the inconsistency between request and bio (e.g. rq->__sector and rq->bio) will cause silent data corruption: https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-June/msg00022.html Reported-by: Junichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

2015-06-07block, cgroup: implement policy-specific per-blkcg dataArianna Avanzini
The block IO (blkio) controller enables the block layer to provide service guarantees in a hierarchical fashion. Specifically, service guarantees are provided by registered request-accounting policies. As of now, a proportional-share and a throttling policy are available. They are implemented, respectively, by the CFQ I/O scheduler and the blk-throttle subsystem. Unfortunately, as for adding new policies, the current implementation of the block IO controller is only halfway ready to allow new policies to be plugged in. This commit provides a solution to make the block IO controller fully ready to handle new policies. In what follows, we first describe briefly the current state, and then list the changes made by this commit. The throttling policy does not need any per-cgroup information to perform its task. In contrast, the proportional share policy uses, for each cgroup, both the weight assigned by the user to the cgroup, and a set of dynamically- computed weights, one for each device. The first, user-defined weight is stored in the blkcg data structure: the block IO controller allocates a private blkcg data structure for each cgroup in the blkio cgroups hierarchy (regardless of which policy is active). In other words, the block IO controller internally mirrors the blkio cgroups with private blkcg data structures. On the other hand, for each cgroup and device, the corresponding dynamically- computed weight is maintained in the following, different way. For each device, the block IO controller keeps a private blkcg_gq structure for each cgroup in blkio. In other words, block IO also keeps one private mirror copy of the blkio cgroups hierarchy for each device, made of blkcg_gq structures. Each blkcg_gq structure keeps per-policy information in a generic array of dynamically-allocated 'dedicated' data structures, one for each registered policy (so currently the array contains two elements). To be inserted into the generic array, each dedicated data structure embeds a generic blkg_policy_data structure. Consider now the array contained in the blkcg_gq structure corresponding to a given pair of cgroup and device: one of the elements of the array contains the dedicated data structure for the proportional-share policy, and this dedicated data structure contains the dynamically-computed weight for that pair of cgroup and device. The generic strategy adopted for storing per-policy data in blkcg_gq structures is already capable of handling new policies, whereas the one adopted with blkcg structures is not, because per-policy data are hard-coded in the blkcg structures themselves (currently only data related to the proportional- share policy). This commit addresses the above issues through the following changes: . It generalizes blkcg structures so that per-policy data are stored in the same way as in blkcg_gq structures. Specifically, it lets also the blkcg structure store per-policy data in a generic array of dynamically-allocated dedicated data structures. We will refer to these data structures as blkcg dedicated data structures, to distinguish them from the dedicated data structures inserted in the generic arrays kept by blkcg_gq structures. To allow blkcg dedicated data structures to be inserted in the generic array inside a blkcg structure, this commit also introduces a new blkcg_policy_data structure, which is the equivalent of blkg_policy_data for blkcg dedicated data structures. . It adds to the blkcg_policy structure, i.e., to the descriptor of a policy, a cpd_size field and a cpd_init field, to be initialized by the policy with, respectively, the size of the blkcg dedicated data structures, and the address of a constructor function for blkcg dedicated data structures. . It moves the CFQ-specific fields embedded in the blkcg data structure (i.e., the fields related to the proportional-share policy), into a new blkcg dedicated data structure called cfq_group_data.

2015-06-02writeback, blkcg: propagate non-root blkcg congestion stateTejun Heo
Now that bdi layer can handle per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested state, blk_{set|clear}_congested() can propagate non-root blkcg congestion state to them. This can be easily achieved by disabling the root_rl tests in blk_{set|clear}_congested(). Note that we still need those tests when !CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK as otherwise we'll end up flipping root blkcg wb's congestion state for events happening on other blkcgs. v2: Updated for bdi_writeback_congested.

2015-06-02writeback, blkcg: restructure blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested()Tejun Heo
blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() take @q and set or clear, respectively, the congestion state of its bdi's root wb. Because bdi used to be able to handle congestion state only on the root wb, the callers of those functions tested whether the congestion is on the root blkcg and skipped if not. This is cumbersome and makes implementation of per cgroup bdi_writeback congestion state propagation difficult. This patch renames blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() to blk_{set|clear}_congested(), and makes them take request_list instead of request_queue and test whether the specified request_list is the root one before updating bdi_writeback congestion state. This makes the tests in the callers unnecessary and simplifies them. As there are no external users of these functions, the definitions are moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to block/blk-core.c. This patch doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior difference.

Accordingly, for cgroup writeback support, the congestion status at bdi (backing_dev_info) should be split and updated separately from matching blkg's. This patch prepares by adding blkg->wb_congested and associating a blkg with its matching per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested on creation. v2: Updated to associate bdi_writeback_congested instead of bdi_writeback.

2015-06-02writeback: make backing_dev_info host cgroup-specific bdi_writebacksTejun Heo
For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi (backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb (bdi_writeback). This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks). On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg. This allows using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a dedicated wb to each memcg. This means that there may be multiple wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg. As congested state is per blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested state. This is achieved by tracking congested state via bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg. bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup. cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page being dirtied or current task. Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree by its memcg id. Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be retrieved using inode_to_wb(). Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb. v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL. Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed. Both detected by the kbuild bot. v2: Updated so that wb association is per inode and wb is per memcg rather than blkcg.

2015-06-02writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.hTejun Heo
With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup; unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h makes cyclic include dependency quite likely. This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files which need access to more backing-dev details now include backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block and cgroup. v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

2015-06-02writeback: move backing_dev_info->state into bdi_writebackTejun Heo
Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback) and the role of the separation is unclear. For cgroup support for writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi. To achieve that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback IOs for a cgroup independently. This patch moves bdi->state into wb. * enum bdi_state is renamed to wb_state and the prefix of all enums is changed from BDI_ to WB_. * Explicit zeroing of bdi->state is removed without adding zeoring of wb->state as the whole data structure is zeroed on init anyway. * As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state introducing no behavior changes.

2015-06-02cgroup, block: implement task_get_css() and use it in bio_associate_current()Tejun Heo
bio_associate_current() currently open codes task_css() and css_tryget_online() to find and pin $current's blkcg css. Abstract it into task_get_css() which is implemented from cgroup side. As a task is always associated with an online css for every subsystem except while the css_set update is propagating, task_get_css() retries till css_tryget_online() succeeds. This is a cleanup and shouldn't lead to noticeable behavior changes.

2015-06-02blkcg: always create the blkcg_gq for the root blkcgTejun Heo
Currently, blkcg does a minor optimization where the root blkcg is created when the first blkcg policy is activated on a queue and destroyed on the deactivation of the last. On systems where blkcg is configured but not used, this saves one blkcg_gq struct per queue. On systems where blkcg is actually used, there's no difference. The only case where this can lead to any meaninful, albeit still minute, save in memory consumption is when all blkcg policies are deactivated after being widely used in the system, which is a hihgly unlikely scenario. The conditional existence of root blkcg_gq has already created several bugs in blkcg and became an issue once again for the new per-cgroup wb_congested mechanism for cgroup writeback support leading to a NULL dereference when no blkcg policy is active. This is really not worth bothering with. This patch makes blkcg always allocate and link the root blkcg_gq and release it only on queue destruction.

2015-05-28block: discard bdi_unregister() in favour of bdi_destroy()NeilBrown
bdi_unregister() now contains very little functionality. It contains a "WARN_ON" if bdi->dev is NULL. This warning is of no real consequence as bdi->dev isn't needed by anything else in the function, and it triggers if blk_cleanup_queue() -> bdi_destroy() is called before bdi_unregister, which happens since Commit: 6cd18e711dd8 ("block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered.") So this isn't wanted. It also calls bdi_set_min_ratio(). This needs to be called after writes through the bdi have all been flushed, and before the bdi is destroyed. Calling it early is better than calling it late as it frees up a global resource. Calling it immediately after bdi_wb_shutdown() in bdi_destroy() perfectly fits these requirements. So bdi_unregister() can be discarded with the important content moved to bdi_destroy(), as can the writeback_bdi_unregister event which is already not used.

2015-05-22block, dm: don't copy bios for request clonesChristoph Hellwig
Currently dm-multipath has to clone the bios for every request sent to the lower devices, which wastes cpu cycles and ties down memory. This patch instead adds a new REQ_CLONE flag that instructs req_bio_endio to not complete bios attached to a request, which we set on clone requests similar to bios in a flush sequence. With this change I/O errors on a path failure only get propagated to dm-multipath, which can then either resubmit the I/O or complete the bios on the original request. I've done some basic testing of this on a Linux target with ALUA support, and it survives path failures during I/O nicely.

2015-05-22block: remove management of bi_remaining when restoring original bi_end_ioMike Snitzer
Commit c4cf5261 ("bio: skip atomic inc/dec of ->bi_remaining for non-chains") regressed all existing callers that followed this pattern: 1) saving a bio's original bi_end_io 2) wiring up an intermediate bi_end_io 3) restoring the original bi_end_io from intermediate bi_end_io 4) calling bio_endio() to execute the restored original bi_end_io The regression was due to BIO_CHAIN only ever getting set if bio_inc_remaining() is called. For the above pattern it isn't set until step 3 above (step 2 would've needed to establish BIO_CHAIN). As such the first bio_endio(), in step 2 above, never decremented __bi_remaining before calling the intermediate bi_end_io -- leaving __bi_remaining with the value 1 instead of 0. When bio_inc_remaining() occurred during step 3 it brought it to a value of 2. When the second bio_endio() was called, in step 4 above, it should've called the original bi_end_io but it didn't because there was an extra reference that wasn't dropped (due to atomic operations being optimized away since BIO_CHAIN wasn't set upfront). Fix this issue by removing the __bi_remaining management complexity for all callers that use the above pattern -- bio_chain() is the only interface that _needs_ to be concerned with __bi_remaining. For the above pattern callers just expect the bi_end_io they set to get called! Remove bio_endio_nodec() and also remove all bio_inc_remaining() calls that aren't associated with the bio_chain() interface. Also, the bio_inc_remaining() interface has been moved local to bio.c.

2015-05-20block: replace trylock with mutex_lock in blkdev_reread_part()Ming Lei
The only possible problem of using mutex_lock() instead of trylock is about deadlock. If there aren't any locks held before calling blkdev_reread_part(), deadlock can't be caused by this conversion. If there are locks held before calling blkdev_reread_part(), and if these locks arn't required in open, close handler and I/O path, deadlock shouldn't be caused too. Both user space's ioctl(BLKRRPART) and md_setup_drive() from init/do_mounts_md.c belongs to the 1st case, so the conversion is safe for the two cases. For loop, the previous patches in this pathset has fixed the ABBA lock dependency, so the conversion is OK. For nbd, tx_lock is held when calling the function: - both open and release won't hold the lock - when blkdev_reread_part() is run, I/O thread has been stopped already, so tx_lock won't be acquired in I/O path at that time. - so the conversion won't cause deadlock for nbd For dasd, both dasd_open(), dasd_release() and request function don't acquire any mutex/semphone, so the conversion should be safe.

The following appears in blk_sq_make_request: /* * If we have multiple hardware queues, just go directly to * one of those for sync IO. */ We clearly don't have multiple hardware queues, here! This comment was introduced with this commit 07068d5b8e (blk-mq: split make request handler for multi and single queue): We want slightly different behavior from them: - On single queue devices, we currently use the per-process plug for deferred IO and for merging. - On multi queue devices, we don't use the per-process plug, but we want to go straight to hardware for SYNC IO. The old code had this: use_plug = !is_flush_fua && ((q->nr_hw_queues == 1) || !is_sync); and that was converted to: use_plug = !is_flush_fua && !is_sync; which is not equivalent. For the single queue case, that second half of the && expression is always true. So, what I think was actually inteded follows (and this more closely matches what is done in blk_queue_bio).

We can remove this atomic_dec_and_test() in the completion path, if nobody else is holding a reference to the bio.

2015-04-27block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered.NeilBrown
Because of the peculiar way that md devices are created (automatically when the device node is opened), a new device can be created and registered immediately after the blk_unregister_region(disk_devt(disk), disk->minors); call in del_gendisk(). Therefore it is important that all visible artifacts of the previous device are removed before this call. In particular, the 'bdi'. Since: commit c4db59d31e39ea067c32163ac961e9c80198fd37 Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to default_backing_dev_info moved the device_unregister(bdi->dev); call from bdi_unregister() to bdi_destroy() it has been quite easy to lose a race and have a new (e.g.) "md127" be created after the blk_unregister_region() call and before bdi_destroy() is ultimately called by the final 'put_disk', which must come after del_gendisk(). The new device finds that the bdi name is already registered in sysfs and complains > [ 9627.630029] WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 3330 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x5a/0x70() > [ 9627.630032] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/bdi/9:127' We can fix this by moving the bdi_destroy() call out of blk_release_queue() (which can happen very late when a refcount reaches zero) and into blk_cleanup_queue() - which happens exactly when the md device driver calls it. Then it is only necessary for md to call blk_cleanup_queue() before del_gendisk(). As loop.c devices are also created on demand by opening the device node, we make the same change there.
