2011-05-29pnfs-obj: report errors and .encode_layoutreturn Implementation.Boaz Harrosh3-2/+297
An io_state pre-allocates an error information structure for each possible osd-device that might error during IO. When IO is done if all was well the io_state is freed. (as today). If the I/O has ended with an error, the io_state is queued on a per-layout err_list. When eventually encode_layoutreturn() is called, each error is properly encoded on the XDR buffer and only then the io_state is removed from err_list and de-allocated. It is up to the io_engine to fill in the segment that fault and the type of osd_error that occurred. By calling objlayout_io_set_result() for each failing device.

2011-05-29pnfs: client statsJ. Bruce Fields1-0/+25
A pNFS client auto-negotiates a lot of features (minorversion level, pNFS layout type, etc.). This is convenient, but makes certain kinds of failures hard for a user to detect. For example, if the client falls back on 4.0, or falls back to MDS IO because the user didn't connect to the right iscsi disks before mounting, the only symptoms may be reduced performance, which may not be noticed till long after the actual failure, and may be difficult for a user to diagnose. However, such "failures" may also be perfectly normal in some cases, so we don't want to spam the system logs with them. One approach would be to put some more information into /proc/self/mountstats.

2011-05-29eCryptfs: Cleanup inode initialization codeTyler Hicks2-68/+69
The eCryptfs inode get, initialization, and dentry interposition code has two separate paths. One is for when dentry interposition is needed after doing things like a mkdir in the lower filesystem and the other is needed after a lookup. Unlocking new inodes and doing a d_add() needs to happen at different times, depending on which type of dentry interposing is being done. This patch cleans up the inode get and initialization code paths and splits them up so that the locking and d_add() differences mentioned above can be handled appropriately in a later patch.

Replace the arbitrary calculation of an initial io struct mempool size with a constant. The code calculated the number of reserved structures based on the request size and used a "magic" multiplication constant of 4. This patch changes it to reserve a fixed number - itself still chosen quite arbitrarily. Further testing might show if there is a better number to choose. Note that if there is no memory pressure, we can still allocate an arbitrary number of "struct io" structures. One structure is enough to process the whole request.

2011-05-29dm kcopyd: remove superfluous page allocation spinlockMikulas Patocka1-10/+1
Remove the spinlock protecting the pages allocation. The spinlock is only taken on initialization or from single-threaded workqueue. Therefore, the spinlock is useless. The spinlock is taken in kcopyd_get_pages and kcopyd_put_pages. kcopyd_get_pages is only called from run_pages_job, which is only called from process_jobs called from do_work. kcopyd_put_pages is called from client_alloc_pages (which is initialization function) or from run_complete_job. run_complete_job is only called from process_jobs called from do_work. Another spinlock, kc->job_lock is taken each time someone pushes or pops some work for the worker thread. Once we take kc->job_lock, we guarantee that any written memory is visible to the other CPUs.

2011-05-29dm kcopyd: preallocate sub jobs to avoid deadlockMikulas Patocka1-20/+29
There's a possible theoretical deadlock in dm-kcopyd because multiple allocations from the same mempool are required to finish a request. Avoid this by preallocating sub jobs. There is a mempool of 512 entries. Each request requires up to 9 entries from the mempool. If we have at least 57 concurrent requests running, the mempool may overflow and mempool allocations may start blocking until another entry is freed to the mempool. Because the same thread is used to free entries to the mempool and allocate entries from the mempool, this may result in a deadlock. This patch changes it so that one mempool entry contains all 9 "struct kcopyd_job" required to fulfill the whole request. The allocation is done only once in dm_kcopyd_copy and no further mempool allocations are done during request processing. If dm_kcopyd_copy is not run in the completion thread, this implementation is deadlock-free. MIN_JOBS needs reducing accordingly and we've chosen to reduce it further to 8.

2011-05-29dm kcopyd: avoid pointless job splittingMikulas Patocka1-1/+1
Don't split SUB_JOB_SIZE jobs If the job size equals SUB_JOB_SIZE, there is no point in splitting it. Splitting it just unnecessarily wastes time, because the split job size is SUB_JOB_SIZE too. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2011-05-29dm mpath: do not fail paths after integrity errorsMartin K. Petersen1-1/+1
Integrity errors need to be passed to the owner of the integrity metadata for processing. Consequently EILSEQ should be passed up the stack. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Martin K.

2011-05-29dm table: reject devices without request fnsMilan Broz1-0/+17
This patch adds a check that a block device has a request function defined before it is used. Otherwise, misconfiguration can cause an oops. Because we are allowing devices with zero size e.g. an offline multipath device as in commit 2cd54d9bedb79a97f014e86c0da393416b264eb3 ("dm: allow offline devices") there needs to be an additional check to ensure devices are initialised. Some block devices, like a loop device without a backing file, exist but have no request function. Reproducer is trivial: dm-mirror on unbound loop device (no backing file on loop devices) dmsetup create x --table "0 8 mirror core 2 8 sync 2 /dev/loop0 0 /dev/loop1 0" and mirror resync will immediatelly cause OOps.
