2019-09-13dm bufio: introduce a global cache replacementMikulas Patocka
This commit introduces a global cache replacement (instead of per-client cleanup). If one bufio client uses the cache heavily and another client is not using it, we want to let the first client use most of the cache. The old algorithm would partition the cache equally betwen the clients and that is sub-optimal. For cache replacement, we use the clock algorithm because it doesn't require taking any lock when the buffer is accessed.

2019-08-15Revert "dm bufio: fix deadlock with loop device"Mikulas Patocka
Revert the commit bd293d071ffe65e645b4d8104f9d8fe15ea13862. The proper fix has been made available with commit d0a255e795ab ("loop: set PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO for the worker thread"). Note that the fix offered by commit bd293d071ffe doesn't really prevent the deadlock from occuring - if we look at the stacktrace reported by Junxiao Bi, we see that it hangs in bit_wait_io and not on the mutex - i.e. it has already successfully taken the mutex. Changing the mutex from mutex_lock to mutex_trylock won't help with deadlocks that happen afterwards.

2019-07-12dm bufio: fix deadlock with loop deviceJunxiao Bi
When thin-volume is built on loop device, if available memory is low, the following deadlock can be triggered: One process P1 allocates memory with GFP_FS flag, direct alloc fails, memory reclaim invokes memory shrinker in dm_bufio, dm_bufio_shrink_scan() runs, mutex dm_bufio_client->lock is acquired, then P1 waits for dm_buffer IO to complete in __try_evict_buffer(). But this IO may never complete if issued to an underlying loop device that forwards it using direct-IO, which allocates memory using GFP_KERNEL (see: do_blockdev_direct_IO()). If allocation fails, memory reclaim will invoke memory shrinker in dm_bufio, dm_bufio_shrink_scan() will be invoked, and since the mutex is already held by P1 the loop thread will hang, and IO will never complete.

2018-04-30dm bufio: fix buffer alignmentMikulas Patocka
Commit 6b5e718cc138 ("dm bufio: relax alignment constraint on slab cache") relaxed alignment on dm-bufio cache, however it may break dm-crypt or dm-integrity. dm-crypt and dm-integrity require that the size of bio vector entries (bv_len) is aligned on its sector size. bv_offset doesn't have to be aligned, but bv_len must be. XFS sends unaligned bios, but they do not cross page boundary, so the requirement for aligned bv_len is met. Commit 6b5e718cc138 made dm-bufio send unaligned bios that cross page boundary, this could break dm-crypt and dm-integrity. Reinstates the alignment. Note that misaligned entries only happen when we use slab/slub debugging. Without debugging, the entries are always aligned.

2018-04-03dm bufio: don't embed a bio in the dm_buffer structureMikulas Patocka
The bio structure consumes a substantial part of dm_buffer. The bio structure is only needed when doing I/O on the buffer, thus we don't have to embed it in the buffer. Allocate the bio structure only when doing I/O. We don't need to create a bio_set because, in case of allocation failure, dm-bufio falls back to using dm-io (which keeps its own bio_set).

2017-12-08dm bufio: fix shrinker scans when (nr_to_scan < retain_target)Suren Baghdasaryan
When system is under memory pressure it is observed that dm bufio shrinker often reclaims only one buffer per scan. This change fixes the following two issues in dm bufio shrinker that cause this behavior: 1. ((nr_to_scan - freed) <= retain_target) condition is used to terminate slab scan process. This assumes that nr_to_scan is equal to the LRU size, which might not be correct because do_shrink_slab() in vmscan.c calculates nr_to_scan using multiple inputs. As a result when nr_to_scan is less than retain_target (64) the scan will terminate after the first iteration, effectively reclaiming one buffer per scan and making scans very inefficient. This hurts vmscan performance especially because mutex is acquired/released every time dm_bufio_shrink_scan() is called. New implementation uses ((LRU size - freed) <= retain_target) condition for scan termination. LRU size can be safely determined inside __scan() because this function is called after dm_bufio_lock(). 2. do_shrink_slab() uses value returned by dm_bufio_shrink_count() to determine number of freeable objects in the slab. However dm_bufio always retains retain_target buffers in its LRU and will terminate a scan when this mark is reached. Therefore returning the entire LRU size from dm_bufio_shrink_count() is misleading because that does not represent the number of freeable objects that slab will reclaim during a scan. Returning (LRU size - retain_target) better represents the number of freeable objects in the slab. This way do_shrink_slab() returns 0 when (LRU size < retain_target) and vmscan will not try to scan this shrinker avoiding scans that will not reclaim any memory.

2017-11-16dm bufio: fix integer overflow when limiting maximum cache sizeEric Biggers
The default max_cache_size_bytes for dm-bufio is meant to be the lesser of 25% of the size of the vmalloc area and 2% of the size of lowmem. However, on 32-bit systems the intermediate result in the expression (VMALLOC_END - VMALLOC_START) * DM_BUFIO_VMALLOC_PERCENT / 100 overflows, causing the wrong result to be computed. For example, on a 32-bit system where the vmalloc area is 520093696 bytes, the result is 1174405 rather than the expected 130023424, which makes the maximum cache size much too small (far less than 2% of lowmem). This causes severe performance problems for dm-verity users on affected systems. Fix this by using mult_frac() to correctly multiply by a percentage. Do this for all places in dm-bufio that multiply by a percentage. Also replace (VMALLOC_END - VMALLOC_START) with VMALLOC_TOTAL, which contrary to the comment is now defined in include/linux/vmalloc.h.

to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-08-23block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions indexChristoph Hellwig
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code). For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists once per block device. But given that the block layer also does partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is used for said remapping in generic_make_request. Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all over the stack.

2017-05-31dm: make flush bios explicitly syncJan Kara
Commit b685d3d65ac7 ("block: treat REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH as synchronous") removed REQ_SYNC flag from WRITE_{FUA|PREFLUSH|...} definitions. generic_make_request_checks() however strips REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH flags from a bio when the storage doesn't report volatile write cache and thus write effectively becomes asynchronous which can lead to performance regressions. Fix the problem by making sure all bios which are synchronous are properly marked with REQ_SYNC.

2017-05-16dm bufio: make the parameter "retain_bytes" unsigned longMikulas Patocka
Change the type of the parameter "retain_bytes" from unsigned to unsigned long, so that on 64-bit machines the user can set more than 4GiB of data to be retained. Also, change the type of the variable "count" in the function "__evict_old_buffers" to unsigned long. The assignment "count = c->n_buffers[LIST_CLEAN] + c->n_buffers[LIST_DIRTY];" could result in unsigned long to unsigned overflow and that could result in buffers not being freed when they should. While at it, avoid division in get_retain_buffers(). Division is slow, we can change it to shift because we have precalculated the log2 of block size.

2017-05-08mm, vmalloc: use __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitlyMichal Hocko
__vmalloc* allows users to provide gfp flags for the underlying allocation. This API is quite popular $ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l 77 The only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space. About half of users don't use this flag, though. This signals that we make the API unnecessarily too complex. This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to be mapped to the vmalloc space. Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM are simplified and drop the flag.

2017-05-01dm bufio: check new buffer allocation watermark every 30 secondsMikulas Patocka
dm-bufio checks a watermark when it allocates a new buffer in __bufio_new(). However, it doesn't check the watermark when the user changes /sys/module/dm_bufio/parameters/max_cache_size_bytes. This may result in a problem - if the watermark is high enough so that all possible buffers are allocated and if the user lowers the value of "max_cache_size_bytes", the watermark will never be checked against the new value because no new buffer would be allocated. To fix this, change __evict_old_buffers() so that it checks the watermark. __evict_old_buffers() is called every 30 seconds, so if the user reduces "max_cache_size_bytes", dm-bufio will react to this change within 30 seconds and decrease memory consumption.

2017-05-01dm bufio: avoid a possible ABBA deadlockMikulas Patocka
__get_memory_limit() tests if dm_bufio_cache_size changed and calls __cache_size_refresh() if it did. It takes dm_bufio_clients_lock while it already holds the client lock. However, lock ordering is violated because in cleanup_old_buffers() dm_bufio_clients_lock is taken before the client lock. This results in a possible deadlock and lockdep engine warning. Fix this deadlock by changing mutex_lock() to mutex_trylock(). If the lock can't be taken, it will be re-checked next time when a new buffer is allocated. Also add "unlikely" to the if condition, so that the optimizer assumes that the condition is false.

2017-01-14sched/core: Remove set_task_state()Davidlohr Bueso
This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must not be done. As of the following commit: be628be0956 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()") ... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing the helper to be removed. However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference with either calls. Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs get_current_state(). Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used, which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

2016-12-08dm bufio: drop the lock when doing GFP_NOIO allocationMikulas Patocka
If the first allocation attempt using GFP_NOWAIT fails, drop the lock and retry using GFP_NOIO allocation (lock is dropped because the allocation can take some time). Note that we won't do GFP_NOIO allocation when we loop for the second time, because the lock shouldn't be dropped between __wait_for_free_buffer and __get_unclaimed_buffer.

2016-12-08dm bufio: avoid sleeping while holding the dm_bufio lockDouglas Anderson

The problem has been reproduced on fairly easily: 0. Be running Chrome OS w/ verity enabled on the root filesystem 1. Pick test patch: http://crosreview.com/412360 2. Install launchBalloons.sh and balloon.arm from http://crbug.com/468342 ...that's just a memory stress test app. 3. On a 4GB rk3399 machine, run nice ./launchBalloons.sh 4 900 100000 ...that tries to eat 4 * 900 MB of memory and keep accessing. 4. Login to the Chrome web browser and restore many tabs With that, I've seen printouts like: DOUG: long bufio 90758 ms ...and stack trace always show's we're in dm_bufio_prefetch(). The problem is that we try to allocate memory with GFP_NOIO while we're holding the dm_bufio lock. Instead we should be using GFP_NOWAIT. Using GFP_NOIO can cause us to sleep while holding the lock and that causes the above problems. The current behavior explained by David Rientjes: It will still try reclaim initially because __GFP_WAIT (or __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM) is set by GFP_NOIO. This is the cause of contention on dm_bufio_lock() that the thread holds. You want to pass GFP_NOWAIT instead of GFP_NOIO to alloc_buffer() when holding a mutex that can be contended by a concurrent slab shrinker (if count_objects didn't use a trylock, this pattern would trivially deadlock). This change significantly increases responsiveness of the system while in this state. It makes a real difference because it unblocks kswapd. In the bug report analyzed, kswapd was hung: kswapd0 D ffffffc000204fd8 0 72 2 0x00000000 Call trace: [<ffffffc000204fd8>] __switch_to+0x9c/0xa8 [<ffffffc00090b794>] __schedule+0x440/0x6d8 [<ffffffc00090bac0>] schedule+0x94/0xb4 [<ffffffc00090be44>] schedule_preempt_disabled+0x28/0x44 [<ffffffc00090d900>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x120/0x1ac [<ffffffc00090d9d8>] mutex_lock+0x4c/0x68 [<ffffffc000708e7c>] dm_bufio_shrink_count+0x38/0x78 [<ffffffc00030b268>] shrink_slab.part.54.constprop.65+0x100/0x464 [<ffffffc00030dbd8>] shrink_zone+0xa8/0x198 [<ffffffc00030e578>] balance_pgdat+0x328/0x508 [<ffffffc00030eb7c>] kswapd+0x424/0x51c [<ffffffc00023f06c>] kthread+0x10c/0x114 [<ffffffc000203dd0>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x40 By unblocking kswapd memory pressure should be reduced.
