2022-07-20block: don't allow the same type rq_qos add more than onceJinke Han1-7/+11
In our test of iocost, we encountered some list add/del corruptions of inner_walk list in ioc_timer_fn. The reason can be described as follows: cpu 0 cpu 1 ioc_qos_write ioc_qos_write ioc = q_to_ioc(queue); if (!ioc) { ioc = kzalloc(); ioc = q_to_ioc(queue); if (!ioc) { ioc = kzalloc(); ... rq_qos_add(q, rqos); } ... rq_qos_add(q, rqos); ... } When the io.cost.qos file is written by two cpus concurrently, rq_qos may be added to one disk twice. In that case, there will be two iocs enabled and running on one disk. They own different iocgs on their active list. In the ioc_timer_fn function, because of the iocgs from two iocs have the same root iocg, the root iocg's walk_list may be overwritten by each other and this leads to list add/del corruptions in building or destroying the inner_walk list. And so far, the blk-rq-qos framework works in case that one instance for one type rq_qos per queue by default. This patch make this explicit and also fix the crash above.

Use atomic_try_cmpxchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in check_scale_change and atomic64_try_cmpxchg in blkcg_iolatency_done_bio. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).

2022-05-26blk-iolatency: Fix inflight count imbalances and IO hangs on offlineTejun Heo1-58/+64
iolatency needs to track the number of inflight IOs per cgroup. As this tracking can be expensive, it is disabled when no cgroup has iolatency configured for the device. To ensure that the inflight counters stay balanced, iolatency_set_limit() freezes the request_queue while manipulating the enabled counter, which ensures that no IO is in flight and thus all counters are zero. Unfortunately, iolatency_set_limit() isn't the only place where the enabled counter is manipulated. iolatency_pd_offline() can also dec the counter and trigger disabling. As this disabling happens without freezing the q, this can easily happen while some IOs are in flight and thus leak the counts. This can be easily demonstrated by turning on iolatency on an one empty cgroup while IOs are in flight in other cgroups and then removing the cgroup. Note that iolatency shouldn't have been enabled elsewhere in the system to ensure that removing the cgroup disables iolatency for the whole device. The following keeps flipping on and off iolatency on sda: echo +io > /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control while true; do mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/test echo '8:0 target=100000' > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/io.latency sleep 1 rmdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test sleep 1 done and there's concurrent fio generating direct rand reads: fio --name test --filename=/dev/sda --direct=1 --rw=randread \ --runtime=600 --time_based --iodepth=256 --numjobs=4 --bs=4k while monitoring with the following drgn script: while True: for css in css_for_each_descendant_pre(prog['blkcg_root'].css.address_of_()): for pos in hlist_for_each(container_of(css, 'struct blkcg', 'css').blkg_list): blkg = container_of(pos, 'struct blkcg_gq', 'blkcg_node') pd = blkg.pd[prog['blkcg_policy_iolatency'].plid] if pd.value_() == 0: continue iolat = container_of(pd, 'struct iolatency_grp', 'pd') inflight = iolat.rq_wait.inflight.counter.value_() if inflight: print(f'inflight={inflight} {disk_name(blkg.q.disk).decode("utf-8")} ' f'{cgroup_path(css.cgroup).decode("utf-8")}') time.sleep(1) The monitoring output looks like the following: inflight=1 sda /user.slice inflight=1 sda /user.slice ... inflight=14 sda /user.slice inflight=13 sda /user.slice inflight=17 sda /user.slice inflight=15 sda /user.slice inflight=18 sda /user.slice inflight=17 sda /user.slice inflight=20 sda /user.slice inflight=19 sda /user.slice <- fio stopped, inflight stuck at 19 inflight=19 sda /user.slice inflight=19 sda /user.slice If a cgroup with stuck inflight ends up getting throttled, the throttled IOs will never get issued as there's no completion event to wake it up leading to an indefinite hang. This patch fixes the bug by unifying enable handling into a work item which is automatically kicked off from iolatency_set_min_lat_nsec() which is called from both iolatency_set_limit() and iolatency_pd_offline() paths. Punting to a work item is necessary as iolatency_pd_offline() is called under spinlocks while freezing a request_queue requires a sleepable context. This also simplifies the code reducing LOC sans the comments and avoids the unnecessary freezes which were happening whenever a cgroup's latency target is newly set or cleared.

2022-03-14block: fix rq-qos breakage from skipping rq_qos_done_bio()Tejun Heo1-1/+1
a647a524a467 ("block: don't call rq_qos_ops->done_bio if the bio isn't tracked") made bio_endio() skip rq_qos_done_bio() if BIO_TRACKED is not set. While this fixed a potential oops, it also broke blk-iocost by skipping the done_bio callback for merged bios. Before, whether a bio goes through rq_qos_throttle() or rq_qos_merge(), rq_qos_done_bio() would be called on the bio on completion with BIO_TRACKED distinguishing the former from the latter. rq_qos_done_bio() is not called for bios which wenth through rq_qos_merge(). This royally confuses blk-iocost as the merged bios never finish and are considered perpetually in-flight. One reliably reproducible failure mode is an intermediate cgroup geting stuck active preventing its children from being activated due to the leaf-only rule, leading to loss of control. The following is from resctl-bench protection scenario which emulates isolating a web server like workload from a memory bomb run on an iocost configuration which should yield a reasonable level of protection. # cat /sys/block/nvme2n1/device/model Samsung SSD 970 PRO 512GB # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/io.cost.model 259:0 ctrl=user model=linear rbps=834913556 rseqiops=93622 rrandiops=102913 wbps=618985353 wseqiops=72325 wrandiops=71025 # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/io.cost.qos 259:0 enable=1 ctrl=user rpct=95.00 rlat=18776 wpct=95.00 wlat=8897 min=60.00 max=100.00 # resctl-bench -m 29.6G -r out.json run protection::scenario=mem-hog,loops=1 ...

Fix it by introducing a new flag BIO_QOS_MERGED to mark merged bios and calling rq_qos_done_bio() on them too. For consistency and clarity, rename BIO_TRACKED to BIO_QOS_THROTTLED. The flag checks are moved into rq_qos_done_bio() so that it's next to the code paths that set the flags.

2019-07-05blk-iolatency: fix STS_AGAIN handlingDennis Zhou1-37/+14
The iolatency controller is based on rq_qos. It increments on rq_qos_throttle() and decrements on either rq_qos_cleanup() or rq_qos_done_bio(). a3fb01ba5af0 fixes the double accounting issue where blk_mq_make_request() may call both rq_qos_cleanup() and rq_qos_done_bio() on REQ_NO_WAIT. So checking STS_AGAIN prevents the double decrement. The above works upstream as the only way we can get STS_AGAIN is from blk_mq_get_request() failing. The STS_AGAIN handling isn't a real problem as bio_endio() skipping only happens on reserved tag allocation failures which can only be caused by driver bugs and already triggers WARN. However, the fix creates a not so great dependency on how STS_AGAIN can be propagated. Internally, we (Facebook) carry a patch that kills read ahead if a cgroup is io congested or a fatal signal is pending. This combined with chained bios progagate their bi_status to the parent is not already set can can cause the parent bio to not clean up properly even though it was successful. This consequently leaks the inflight counter and can hang all IOs under that blkg. To nip the adverse interaction early, this removes the rq_qos_cleanup() callback in iolatency in favor of cleaning up always on the rq_qos_done_bio() path.

2018-12-17block: fix blk-iolatency accounting underflowDennis Zhou1-1/+1
The blk-iolatency controller measures the time from rq_qos_throttle() to rq_qos_done_bio() and attributes this time to the first bio that needs to create the request. This means if a bio is plug-mergeable or bio-mergeable, it gets to bypass the blk-iolatency controller. The recent series [1], to tag all bios w/ blkgs undermined how iolatency was determining which bios it was charging and should process in rq_qos_done_bio(). Because all bios are being tagged, this caused the atomic_t for the struct rq_wait inflight count to underflow and result in a stall. This patch adds a new flag BIO_TRACKED to let controllers know that a bio is going through the rq_qos path. blk-iolatency now checks if this flag is set to see if it should process the bio in rq_qos_done_bio(). Overloading BLK_QUEUE_ENTERED works, but makes the flag rules confusing. BIO_THROTTLED was another candidate, but the flag is set for all bios that have gone through blk-throttle code. Overloading a flag comes with the burden of making sure that when either implementation changes, a change in setting rules for one doesn't cause a bug in the other.

2018-12-07blkcg: associate blkg when associating a deviceDennis Zhou1-3/+1
Previously, blkg association was handled by controller specific code in blk-throttle and blk-iolatency. However, because a blkg represents a relationship between a blkcg and a request_queue, it makes sense to keep the blkg->q and bio->bi_disk->queue consistent. This patch moves association into the bio_set_dev macro(). This should cover the majority of cases where the device is set/changed keeping the two pointers consistent. Fallback code is added to blkcg_bio_issue_check() to catch any missing paths.

There are several scenarios where blkg_lookup_create() can fail such as the blkcg dying, request_queue is dying, or simply being OOM. Most handle this by simply falling back to the q->root_blkg and calling it a day. This patch implements the notion of closest blkg. During blkg_lookup_create(), if it fails to create, return the closest blkg found or the q->root_blkg. blkg_try_get_closest() is introduced and used during association so a bio is always attached to a blkg.

2018-12-07blkcg: update blkg_lookup_create() to do lockingDennis Zhou1-1/+1
To know when to create a blkg, the general pattern is to do a blkg_lookup() and if that fails, lock and do the lookup again, and if that fails finally create. It doesn't make much sense for everyone who wants to do creation to write this themselves. This changes blkg_lookup_create() to do locking and implement this pattern.

2018-12-07blkcg: fix ref count issue with bio_blkcg() using task_cssDennis Zhou1-1/+1
The bio_blkcg() function turns out to be inconsistent and consequently dangerous to use. The first part returns a blkcg where a reference is owned by the bio meaning it does not need to be rcu protected. However, the third case, the last line, is problematic: return css_to_blkcg(task_css(current, io_cgrp_id)); This can race against task migration and the cgroup dying. It is also semantically different as it must be called rcu protected and is susceptible to failure when trying to get a reference to it. This patch adds association ahead of calling bio_blkcg() rather than after. This makes association a required and explicit step along the code paths for calling bio_blkcg(). In blk-iolatency, association is moved above the bio_blkcg() call to ensure it will not return %NULL. BFQ uses the old bio_blkcg() function, but I do not want to address it in this series due to the complexity. I have created a private version documenting the inconsistency and noting not to use it.

2018-09-28blk-iolatency: keep track of previous windows statsJosef Bacik1-7/+13
We apply a smoothing to the scale changes in order to keep sawtoothy behavior from occurring. However our window for checking if we've missed our target can sometimes be lower than the smoothing interval (500ms), especially on faster drives like ssd's. In order to deal with this keep track of the running tally of the previous intervals that we threw away because we had already done a scale event recently. This is needed for the ssd case as these low latency drives will have bursts of latency, and if it happens to be ok for the window that directly follows the opening of the scale window we could unthrottle when previous windows we were missing our target.

2018-09-28blk-iolatency: use a percentile approache for ssd'sJosef Bacik1-34/+145
We use an average latency approach for determining if we're missing our latency target. This works well for rotational storage where we have generally consistent latencies, but for ssd's and other low latency devices you have more of a spikey behavior, which means we often won't throttle misbehaving groups because a lot of IO completes at drastically faster times than our latency target. Instead keep track of how many IO's miss our target and how many IO's are done in our time window. If the p(90) latency is above our target then we know we need to throttle. With this change in place we are seeing the same throttling behavior with our testcase on ssd's as we see with rotational drives.

There is logic to keep cgroups that haven't done a lot of IO in the most recent scale window from being punished for over-active higher priority groups. However for things like ssd's where the windows are pretty short we'll end up with small numbers of samples, so 5% of samples will come out to 0 if there aren't enough. Make the floor 1 sample to keep us from improperly bailing out of scaling down. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Hitting the case where blk_queue_depth() returned 1 uncovered the fact that iolatency doesn't actually handle this case properly, it simply doesn't scale down anybody. For this case we should go straight into applying the time delay, which we weren't doing. Since we already limit the floor at 1 request this if statement is not needed, and this allows us to set our depth to 1 which allows us to apply the delay if needed.

2018-09-28blk-iolatency: use q->nr_requests directlyJosef Bacik1-3/+3
We were using blk_queue_depth() assuming that it would return nr_requests, but we hit a case in production on drives that had to have NCQ turned off in order for them to not shit the bed which resulted in a qd of 1, even though the nr_requests was much larger. iolatency really only cares about requests we are allowed to queue up, as any io that get's onto the request list is going to be serviced soonish, so we want to be throttling before the bio gets onto the request list. To make iolatency work as expected, simply use q->nr_requests instead of blk_queue_depth() as that is what we actually care about.

2018-08-02block: make iolatency avg_lat exponentially decayDennis Zhou (Facebook)1-15/+45
Currently, avg_lat is calculated by accumulating the mean of every window in a long running cumulative average. As time goes on, the metric becomes less and less useful due to the accumulated history. This patch reuses the same calculation done in load averages to make the avg_lat metric more lively. Unlike load averages, the avg only advances when a window elapses (due to an io). Idle periods extend the most recent window. Bucketing is used to limit the history of avg_lat by binding it to the window size. So, the window range for 1/exp (decay rate) is [1 min, 2.5 min) when windows elapse immediately. The current sample window size is exposed in the debug info to enable calculation of the window range.
