2024-05-20dm: always manage discard support in terms of max_hw_discard_sectorsMike Snitzer
Commit 4f563a64732d ("block: add a max_user_discard_sectors queue limit") changed block core to set max_discard_sectors to: min(lim->max_hw_discard_sectors, lim->max_user_discard_sectors) Since commit 1c0e720228ad ("dm: use queue_limits_set") it was reported dm-thinp was failing in a few fstests (generic/347 and generic/405) with the first WARN_ON_ONCE in dm_cell_key_has_valid_range() being reported, e.g.: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 30 at drivers/md/dm-bio-prison-v1.c:128 dm_cell_key_has_valid_range+0x3d/0x50 blk_set_stacking_limits() sets max_user_discard_sectors to UINT_MAX, so given how block core now sets max_discard_sectors (detailed above) it follows that blk_stack_limits() stacks up the underlying device's max_hw_discard_sectors and max_discard_sectors is set to match it. If max_hw_discard_sectors exceeds dm's BIO_PRISON_MAX_RANGE, then dm_cell_key_has_valid_range() will trigger the warning with: WARN_ON_ONCE(key->block_end - key->block_begin > BIO_PRISON_MAX_RANGE) Aside from this warning, the discard will fail. Fix this and other DM issues by governing discard support in terms of max_hw_discard_sectors instead of max_discard_sectors.

2023-10-31dm error: Add support for zoned block devicesDamien Le Moal
dm-error is used in several test cases in the xfstests test suite to check the handling of IO errors in file systems. However, with several file systems getting native support for zoned block devices (e.g. btrfs and f2fs), dm-error's lack of zoned block device support creates problems as the file system attempts executing zone commands (e.g. a zone append operation) against a dm-error non-zoned block device, which causes various issues in the block layer (e.g. WARN_ON triggers). This commit adds supports for zoned block devices to dm-error, allowing a DM device table containing an error target to be exposed as a zoned block device (if all targets have a compatible zoned model support and mapping). This is done as follows: 1) Allow passing 2 arguments to an error target, similar to dm-linear: a backing device and a start sector. These arguments are optional and dm-error retains its characteristics if the arguments are not specified. 2) Implement the iterate_devices method so that dm-core can normally check the zone support and restrictions (e.g. zone alignment of the targets). When the backing device arguments are not specified, the iterate_devices method never calls the fn() argument. When no backing device is specified, as before, we assume that the DM device is not zoned. When the backing device arguments are specified, the zoned model of the DM device will depend on the backing device type: - If the backing device is zoned and its model and mapping is compatible with other targets of the device, the resulting device will be zoned, with the dm-error mapped portion always returning errors (similar to the default non-zoned case). - If the backing device is not zoned, then the DM device will not be either. This zone support for dm-error requires the definition of a functional report_zones operation so that dm_revalidate_zones() can operate correctly and resources for emulating zone append operations initialized. This is necessary for cases where dm-error is used to partially map a device and have an overall correct handling of zone append. This means that dm-error does not fail report zones operations. Two changes that are not obvious are included to avoid issues: 1) dm_table_supports_zoned_model() is changed to directly check if the backing device of a wildcard target (= dm-error target) is zoned. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to catch the invalid setup of dm-error without a backing device (non zoned case) being combined with zoned targets. 2) dm_table_supports_dax() is modified to return false if the wildcard target is found. Otherwise, when dm-error is set without a backing device, we end up with a NULL pointer dereference in set_dax_synchronous (dax_dev is NULL). This is consistent with the current behavior because dm_table_supports_dax() always returned false for targets that do not define the iterate_devices method.

2019-04-25dm mpath: fix missing call of path selector type->end_ioYufen Yu
After commit 396eaf21ee17 ("blk-mq: improve DM's blk-mq IO merging via blk_insert_cloned_request feedback"), map_request() will requeue the tio when issued clone request return BLK_STS_RESOURCE or BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. Thus, if device driver status is error, a tio may be requeued multiple times until the return value is not DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE. That means type->start_io may be called multiple times, while type->end_io is only called when IO complete. In fact, even without commit 396eaf21ee17, setup_clone() failure can also cause tio requeue and associated missed call to type->end_io. The service-time path selector selects path based on in_flight_size, which is increased by st_start_io() and decreased by st_end_io(). Missed calls to st_end_io() can lead to in_flight_size count error and will cause the selector to make the wrong choice. In addition, queue-length path selector will also be affected. To fix the problem, call type->end_io in ->release_clone_rq before tio requeue. map_info is passed to ->release_clone_rq() for map_request() error path that result in requeue.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last couple days, but the whole set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. Change summary: - Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of namespace modes or state. This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error" requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus devices. - Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations. This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent memory support. - 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event. Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally, fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for -stable. - ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

2015-02-09dm: allocate requests in target when stacking on blk-mq devicesMike Snitzer
For blk-mq request-based DM the responsibility of allocating a cloned request is transfered from DM core to the target type. Doing so enables the cloned request to be allocated from the appropriate blk-mq request_queue's pool (only the DM target, e.g. multipath, can know which block device to send a given cloned request to). Care was taken to preserve compatibility with old-style block request completion that requires request-based DM _not_ acquire the clone request's queue lock in the completion path. As such, there are now 2 different request-based DM target_type interfaces: 1) the original .map_rq() interface will continue to be used for non-blk-mq devices -- the preallocated clone request is passed in from DM core. 2) a new .clone_and_map_rq() and .release_clone_rq() will be used for blk-mq devices -- blk_get_request() and blk_put_request() are used respectively from these hooks. dm_table_set_type() was updated to detect if the request-based target is being stacked on blk-mq devices, if so DM_TYPE_MQ_REQUEST_BASED is set. DM core disallows switching the DM table's type after it is set. This means that there is no mixing of non-blk-mq and blk-mq devices within the same request-based DM table.

Train dm_table_set_type() to prefer the mapped device's established type (request-based or bio-based).

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.
