2018-08-27block: bsg: move atomic_t ref_count variable to refcount APIJohn Pittman1-4/+4
Currently, variable ref_count within the bsg_device struct is of type atomic_t. For variables being used as reference counters, the refcount API should be used instead of atomic. The newer refcount API works to prevent counter overflows and use-after-free bugs. So, move this varable from the atomic API to refcount, potentially avoiding the issues mentioned.

2018-08-27blk-wbt: improve waking of tasksJens Axboe1-7/+56
We have two potential issues: 1) After commit 2887e41b910b, we only wake one process at the time when we finish an IO. We really want to wake up as many tasks as can queue IO. Before this commit, we woke up everyone, which could cause a thundering herd issue. 2) A task can potentially consume two wakeups, causing us to (in practice) miss a wakeup. Fix both by providing our own wakeup function, which stops __wake_up_common() from waking up more tasks if we fail to get a queueing token. With the strict ordering we have on the wait list, this wakes the right tasks and the right amount of tasks. Based on a patch from Jianchao Wang <jianchao.w.wang@oracle.com>.

2018-08-23blk-wbt: don't maintain inflight counts if disabledJens Axboe2-1/+21
A previous commit removed the ability to have per-rq flags. We used those flags to maintain inflight counts. Since we don't have those anymore, we have to always maintain inflight counts, even if wbt is disabled. This is clearly suboptimal. Add a queue quiesce around changing the wbt latency settings from sysfs to work around this. With that, we can reliably put the enabled check in our bio_to_wbt_flags(), since we know the WBT_TRACKED flag will be consistent for the lifetime of the request.

2018-08-21blk-mq: sync the update nr_hw_queues with blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iterJianchao Wang2-1/+17
For blk-mq, part_in_flight/rw will invoke blk_mq_in_flight/rw to account the inflight requests. It will access the queue_hw_ctx and nr_hw_queues w/o any protection. When updating nr_hw_queues and blk_mq_in_flight/rw occur concurrently, panic comes up. Before update nr_hw_queues, the q will be frozen. So we could use q_usage_counter to avoid the race. percpu_ref_is_zero is used here so that we will not miss any in-flight request. The access to nr_hw_queues and queue_hw_ctx in blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter are under rcu critical section, __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues could use synchronize_rcu to ensure the zeroed q_usage_counter to be globally visible.

2018-08-21blk-mq: init hctx sched after update ctx and hctx mappingJianchao Wang5-65/+98
Currently, when update nr_hw_queues, IO scheduler's init_hctx will be invoked before the mapping between ctx and hctx is adapted correctly by blk_mq_map_swqueue. The IO scheduler init_hctx (kyber) may depend on this mapping and get wrong result and panic finally. A simply way to fix this is that switch the IO scheduler to 'none' before update the nr_hw_queues, and then switch it back after update nr_hw_queues. blk_mq_sched_init_/exit_hctx are removed due to nobody use them any more.

2018-08-16block, bfq: reduce write overchargePaolo Valente1-14/+19
When a sync request is dispatched, the queue that contains that request, and all the ancestor entities of that queue, are charged with the number of sectors of the request. In constrast, if the request is async, then the queue and its ancestor entities are charged with the number of sectors of the request, multiplied by an overcharge factor. This throttles the bandwidth for async I/O, w.r.t. to sync I/O, and it is done to counter the tendency of async writes to steal I/O throughput to reads. On the opposite end, the lower this parameter, the stabler I/O control, in the following respect. The lower this parameter is, the less the bandwidth enjoyed by a group decreases - when the group does writes, w.r.t. to when it does reads; - when other groups do reads, w.r.t. to when they do writes. The fixes "block, bfq: always update the budget of an entity when needed" and "block, bfq: readd missing reset of parent-entity service" improved I/O control in bfq to such an extent that it has been possible to revise this overcharge factor downwards. This commit introduces the resulting, new value. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

On wbt invariant is that if one IO is tracked via WBT_TRACKED, rqw->inflight should be updated for tracking this IO. But commit c1c80384c8f ("block: remove external dependency on wbt_flags") forgets to remove the early handling of !rwb_enabled(rwb) inside wbt_wait(), then the inflight counter may not be increased in wbt_wait(), but decreased in wbt_done() for this kind of IO, so this counter may become negative, then wbt_wait() may wait forever.

2018-08-09Blk-throttle: reduce tail io latency when iops limit is enforcedLiu Bo1-6/+1
When an application's iops has exceeded its cgroup's iops limit, surely it is throttled and kernel will set a timer for dispatching, thus IO latency includes the delay. However, the dispatch delay which is calculated by the limit and the elapsed jiffies is suboptimal. As the dispatch delay is only calculated once the application's iops is (iops limit + 1), it doesn't need to wait any longer than the remaining time of the current slice. The difference can be proved by the following fio job and cgroup iops setting, ----- $ echo 4 > /mnt/config/nullb/disk1/mbps # limit nullb's bandwidth to 4MB/s for testing. $ echo "253:1 riops=100 rbps=max" > /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/cg1/io.max $ cat r2.job [global] name=fio-rand-read filename=/dev/nullb1 rw=randread bs=4k direct=1 numjobs=1 time_based=1 runtime=60 group_reporting=1 [file1] size=4G ioengine=libaio iodepth=1 rate_iops=50000 norandommap=1 thinktime=4ms ----- wo patch: file1: (g=0): rw=randread, bs=(R) 4096B-4096B, (W) 4096B-4096B, (T) 4096B-4096B, ioengine=libaio, iodepth=1 fio-3.7-66-gedfc Starting 1 process read: IOPS=99, BW=400KiB/s (410kB/s)(23.4MiB/60001msec) slat (usec): min=10, max=336, avg=27.71, stdev=17.82 clat (usec): min=2, max=28887, avg=5929.81, stdev=7374.29 lat (usec): min=24, max=28901, avg=5958.73, stdev=7366.22 clat percentiles (usec): | 1.00th=[ 4], 5.00th=[ 4], 10.00th=[ 4], 20.00th=[ 4], | 30.00th=[ 4], 40.00th=[ 4], 50.00th=[ 6], 60.00th=[11731], | 70.00th=[11863], 80.00th=[11994], 90.00th=[12911], 95.00th=[22676], | 99.00th=[23725], 99.50th=[23987], 99.90th=[23987], 99.95th=[25035], | 99.99th=[28967] w/ patch: file1: (g=0): rw=randread, bs=(R) 4096B-4096B, (W) 4096B-4096B, (T) 4096B-4096B, ioengine=libaio, iodepth=1 fio-3.7-66-gedfc Starting 1 process read: IOPS=100, BW=400KiB/s (410kB/s)(23.4MiB/60005msec) slat (usec): min=10, max=155, avg=23.24, stdev=16.79 clat (usec): min=2, max=12393, avg=5961.58, stdev=5959.25 lat (usec): min=23, max=12412, avg=5985.91, stdev=5951.92 clat percentiles (usec): | 1.00th=[ 3], 5.00th=[ 3], 10.00th=[ 4], 20.00th=[ 4], | 30.00th=[ 4], 40.00th=[ 5], 50.00th=[ 47], 60.00th=[11863], | 70.00th=[11994], 80.00th=[11994], 90.00th=[11994], 95.00th=[11994], | 99.00th=[11994], 99.50th=[11994], 99.90th=[12125], 99.95th=[12125], | 99.99th=[12387] Signed-off-by: Liu Bo <bo.liu@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

2018-08-09blk-mq: count the hctx as active before allocating tagJianchao Wang2-2/+9
Currently, we count the hctx as active after allocate driver tag successfully. If a previously inactive hctx try to get tag first time, it may fails and need to wait. However, due to the stale tag ->active_queues, the other shared-tags users are still able to occupy all driver tags while there is someone waiting for tag. Consequently, even if the previously inactive hctx is waked up, it still may not be able to get a tag and could be starved. To fix it, we count the hctx as active before try to allocate driver tag, then when it is waiting the tag, the other shared-tag users will reserve budget for it.

2018-08-07blk-wbt: Avoid lock contention and thundering herd issue in wbt_waitAnchal Agarwal1-31/+24
I am currently running a large bare metal instance (i3.metal) on EC2 with 72 cores, 512GB of RAM and NVME drives, with a 4.18 kernel. I have a workload that simulates a database workload and I am running into lockup issues when writeback throttling is enabled,with the hung task detector also kicking in. Crash dumps show that most CPUs (up to 50 of them) are all trying to get the wbt wait queue lock while trying to add themselves to it in __wbt_wait (see stack traces below).

The original intention of the code seems to be to wake up one thread only however, it uses wake_up_all() in __wbt_done(), and then uses the following check in __wbt_wait to have only one thread actually get out of the wait loop: if (waitqueue_active(&rqw->wait) && rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry) return false; The problem with this is that the wait entry in wbt_wait is define with DEFINE_WAIT, which uses the autoremove wakeup function. That means that the above check is invalid - the wait entry will have been removed from the queue already by the time we hit the check in the loop. Secondly, auto-removing the wait entries also means that the wait queue essentially gets reordered "randomly" (e.g. threads re-add themselves in the order they got to run after being woken up). Additionally, new requests entering wbt_wait might overtake requests that were queued earlier, because the wait queue will be (temporarily) empty after the wake_up_all, so the waitqueue_active check will not stop them. This can cause certain threads to starve under high load. The fix is to leave the woken up requests in the queue and remove them in finish_wait() once the current thread breaks out of the wait loop in __wbt_wait. This will ensure new requests always end up at the back of the queue, and they won't overtake requests that are already in the wait queue. With that change, the loop in wbt_wait is also in line with many other wait loops in the kernel. Waking up just one thread drastically reduces lock contention, as does moving the wait queue add/remove out of the loop. A significant drop in lockdep's lock contention numbers is seen when running the test application on the patched kernel.

2018-08-04Partially revert "block: fail op_is_write() requests to read-only partitions"Linus Torvalds1-2/+3
It turns out that commit 721c7fc701c7 ("block: fail op_is_write() requests to read-only partitions"), while obviously correct, causes problems for some older lvm2 installations. The reason is that the lvm snapshotting will continue to write to the snapshow COW volume, even after the volume has been marked read-only. End result: snapshot failure. This has actually been fixed in newer version of the lvm2 tool, but the old tools still exist, and the breakage was reported both in the kernel bugzilla and in the Debian bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200439 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=900442 The lvm2 fix is here https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commit;h=a6fdb9d9d70f51c49ad11a87ab4243344e6701a3 but until everybody has updated to recent versions, we'll have to weaken the "never write to read-only partitions" check. It now allows the write to happen, but causes a warning, something like this: generic_make_request: Trying to write to read-only block-device dm-3 (partno X) Modules linked in: nf_tables xt_cgroup xt_owner kvm_intel iwlmvm kvm irqbypass iwlwifi CPU: 1 PID: 77 Comm: kworker/1:1 Not tainted 4.17.9-gentoo #3 Hardware name: LENOVO 20B6A019RT/20B6A019RT, BIOS GJET91WW (2.41 ) 09/21/2016 Workqueue: ksnaphd do_metadata RIP: 0010:generic_make_request_checks+0x4ac/0x600 ...

The passed 'nr' from userspace represents the total depth, meantime inside 'struct blk_mq_tags', 'nr_tags' stores the total tag depth, and 'nr_reserved_tags' stores the reserved part. There are two issues in blk_mq_tag_update_depth() now: 1) for growing tags, we should have used the passed 'nr', and keep the number of reserved tags not changed. 2) the passed 'nr' should have been used for checking against 'tags->nr_tags', instead of number of the normal part.

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.

We find the memory use-after-free issue in __blk_drain_queue() on the kernel 4.14. After read the latest kernel 4.18-rc6 we think it has the same problem. Memory is allocated for q->fq in the blk_init_allocated_queue(). If the elevator init function called with error return, it will run into the fail case to free the q->fq. Then the __blk_drain_queue() uses the same memory after the free of the q->fq, it will lead to the unpredictable event. The patch is to set q->fq as NULL in the fail case of blk_init_allocated_queue().

The if-block that sets a successful return value in aix_partition() uses 'lvip[].pps_per_lv' and 'n[].name' potentially uninitialized. For example, if 'numlvs' is zero or alloc_lvn() fails, neither is initialized, but are used anyway if alloc_pvd() succeeds after it. So, make the alloc_pvd() call conditional on their initialization. This has been hit when attaching an apparently corrupted/stressed AIX LUN, misleading the kernel to pr_warn() invalid data and hang.

This allows bio_integrity_bytes() to be called from drivers instead of open coding it. Acked-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Edwards <gedwards@ddn.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2018-07-26block: bio_iov_iter_get_pages: pin more pages for multi-segment IOsMartin Wilck1-3/+32
bio_iov_iter_get_pages() currently only adds pages for the next non-zero segment from the iov_iter to the bio. That's suboptimal for callers, which typically try to pin as many pages as fit into the bio. This patch converts the current bio_iov_iter_get_pages() into a static helper, and introduces a new helper that allocates as many pages as 1) fit into the bio, 2) are present in the iov_iter, 3) and can be pinned by MM. Error is returned only if zero pages could be pinned. Because of 3), a zero return value doesn't necessarily mean all pages have been pinned. Callers that have to pin every page in the iov_iter must still call this function in a loop (this is currently the case). This change matters most for __blkdev_direct_IO_simple(), which calls bio_iov_iter_get_pages() only once. If it obtains less pages than requested, it returns a "short write" or "short read", and __generic_file_write_iter() falls back to buffered writes, which may lead to data corruption.

2018-07-26block: bio_iov_iter_get_pages: fix size of last iovecMartin Wilck1-10/+8
If the last page of the bio is not "full", the length of the last vector slot needs to be corrected. This slot has the index (bio->bi_vcnt - 1), but only in bio->bi_io_vec. In the "bv" helper array, which is shifted by the value of bio->bi_vcnt at function invocation, the correct index is (nr_pages - 1). v2: improved readability following suggestions from Ming Lei. v3: followed a formatting suggestion from Christoph Hellwig.
