block: use nanosecond resolution for iostat

2018-09-22T02:26:59+00:00

Klaus Kusche reported that the I/O busy time in /proc/diskstats was not updating properly on 4.18. This is because we started using ktime to track elapsed time, and we convert nanoseconds to jiffies when we update the partition counter. However, this gets rounded down, so any I/Os that take less than a jiffy are not accounted for. Previously in this case, the value of jiffies would sometimes increment while we were doing I/O, so at least some I/Os were accounted for. Let's convert the stats to use nanoseconds internally. We still report milliseconds as before, now more accurately than ever. The value is still truncated to 32 bits for backwards compatibility.

block: Track DISCARD statistics and output them in stat and diskstat

2018-07-18T14:44:22+00:00

Add tracking of REQ_OP_DISCARD ios to the partition statistics and append them to the various stat files in /sys as well as /proc/diskstats. These are tracked with the same four stats as reads and writes: Number of discard ios completed. Number of discard ios merged Number of discard sectors completed Milliseconds spent on discard requests This is done via adding a new STAT_DISCARD define to genhd.h and then using it to index that stat field for discard requests. tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17 and other previous updates.

block: Define and use STAT_READ and STAT_WRITE

2018-07-18T14:44:18+00:00

Add defines for STAT_READ and STAT_WRITE for indexing the partition stat entries. This clarifies some fs/ code which has hardcoded 1 for STAT_WRITE and will make it easier to extend the stats with additional fields. tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17.

block drivers/block: Use octal not symbolic permissions

2018-05-24T19:38:59+00:00

Convert the S_ symbolic permissions to their octal equivalents as using octal and not symbolic permissions is preferred by many as more readable. see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/2/1945 Done with automated conversion via: $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace Miscellanea: o Wrapped modified multi-line calls to a single line where appropriate o Realign modified multi-line calls to open parenthesis Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

proc: introduce proc_create_seq{,_data}

2018-05-16T05:23:35+00:00

Variants of proc_create{,_data} that directly take a struct seq_operations argument and drastically reduces the boilerplate code in the callers. All trivial callers converted over. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

blk-mq: fix sysfs inflight counter

2018-04-26T15:02:01+00:00

When the blk-mq inflight implementation was added, /proc/diskstats was converted to use it, but /sys/block/$dev/inflight was not. Fix it by adding another helper to count in-flight requests by data direction.

block, char_dev: Use correct format specifier for unsigned ints

2018-03-15T16:59:24+00:00

register_blkdev() and __register_chrdev_region() treat the major number as an unsigned int. So print it the same way to avoid absurd error statements such as: "... major requested (-1) is greater than the maximum (511) ..." (and also fix off-by-one bugs in the error prints). While at it, also update the comment describing register_blkdev(). Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat Reviewed-by: Logan Gunthorpe Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

genhd: Fix BUG in blkdev_open()

2018-02-26T16:48:42+00:00

When two blkdev_open() calls for a partition race with device removal and recreation, we can hit BUG_ON(!bd_may_claim(bdev, whole, holder)) in blkdev_open(). The race can happen as follows: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 del_gendisk() bdev_unhash_inode(part1); blkdev_open(part1, O_EXCL) blkdev_open(part1, O_EXCL) bdev = bd_acquire() bdev = bd_acquire() blkdev_get(bdev) bd_start_claiming(bdev) - finds old inode 'whole' bd_prepare_to_claim() -> 0 bdev_unhash_inode(whole); blkdev_get(bdev); bd_start_claiming(bdev) - finds new inode 'whole' bd_prepare_to_claim() - this also succeeds as we have different 'whole' here... - bad things happen now as we have two exclusive openers of the same bdev The problem here is that block device opens can see various intermediate states while gendisk is shutting down and then being recreated. We fix the problem by introducing new lookup_sem in gendisk that synchronizes gendisk deletion with get_gendisk() and furthermore by making sure that get_gendisk() does not return gendisk that is being (or has been) deleted. This makes sure that once we ever manage to look up newly created bdev inode, we are also guaranteed that following get_gendisk() will either return failure (and we fail open) or it returns gendisk for the new device and following bdget_disk() will return new bdev inode (i.e., blkdev_open() follows the path as if it is completely run after new device is created).
