block: add missing group association in bio-cloning functions

2016-08-20T16:11:01+00:00

commit 20bd723ec6a3261df5e02250cd3a1fbb09a343f2 upstream. When a bio is cloned, the newly created bio must be associated with the same blkcg as the original bio (if BLK_CGROUP is enabled). If this operation is not performed, then the new bio is not associated with any group, and the group of the current task is returned when the group of the bio is requested. Depending on the cloning frequency, this may cause a large percentage of the bios belonging to a given group to be treated as if belonging to other groups (in most cases as if belonging to the root group). The expected group isolation may thereby be broken. This commit adds the missing association in bio-cloning functions.

block: make bio_inc_remaining() interface accessible again

2016-05-05T19:03:29+00:00

Commit 326e1dbb57 ("block: remove management of bi_remaining when restoring original bi_end_io") made bio_inc_remaining() private to bio.c because the only use-case that made sense was confined to the bio_chain() interface. Since that time DM thinp went on to use bio_chain() in its relatively complex implementation of async discard support. That implementation, even when converted over to use the new async __blkdev_issue_discard() interface, depends on deferred completion of the original discard bio -- which is most appropriately implemented using bio_inc_remaining(). DM thinp foolishly duplicated bio_inc_remaining(), local to dm-thin.c as __bio_inc_remaining(), so re-exporting bio_inc_remaining() allows us to put an end to that foolishness. All said, bio_inc_remaining() should really only be used in conjunction with bio_chain(). It isn't intended for generic bio reference counting.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

2016-04-04T17:41:08+00:00

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ; - >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

block: don't optimize for non-cloned bio in bio_get_last_bvec()

2016-03-12T21:12:10+00:00

For !BIO_CLONED bio, we can use .bi_vcnt safely, but it doesn't mean we can just simply return .bi_io_vec[.bi_vcnt - 1] because the start postion may have been moved in the middle of the bvec, such as splitting in the middle of bvec.

block: bio: introduce helpers to get the 1st and last bvec

2016-03-03T21:42:49+00:00

The bio passed to bio_will_gap() may be fast cloned from upper layer(dm, md, bcache, fs, ...), or from bio splitting in block core. Unfortunately bio_will_gap() just figures out the last bvec via 'bi_io_vec[prev->bi_vcnt - 1]' directly, and this way is obviously wrong. This patch introduces two helpers for getting the first and last bvec of one bio for fixing the issue.

blk-integrity: empty implementation when disabled

2015-12-03T16:32:21+00:00

This patch moves the blk_integrity_payload definition outside the CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTERITY dependency and provides empty function implementations when the kernel configuration disables integrity extensions. This simplifies drivers that make use of these to map user data so they don't need to repeat the same configuration checks. Signed-off-by: Keith Busch Updated by Jens to pass an error pointer return from bio_integrity_alloc(), otherwise if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY isn't set, we return a weird ENOMEM from __nvme_submit_user_cmd() if a meta buffer is set.

block: Replace SG_GAPS with new queue limits mask

2015-08-19T21:26:02+00:00

The SG_GAPS queue flag caused checks for bio vector alignment against PAGE_SIZE, but the device may have different constraints. This patch adds a queue limits so a driver with such constraints can set to allow requests that would have been unnecessarily split. The new gaps check takes the request_queue as a parameter to simplify the logic around invoking this function. This new limit makes the queue flag redundant, so removing it and all usage. Device-mappers will inherit the correct settings through blk_stack_limits(). Signed-off-by: Keith Busch Reviewed-by: Martin K. Petersen Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: shrink struct bio down to 2 cache lines again

2015-07-29T14:55:25+00:00

Commit bcf2843b3f8f added ->bi_error to cleanup the error passing for struct bio, but that ended up adding 4 bytes and a 4 byte hole to the size of struct bio. For a clean config, that bumped it from 128 bytes, to 136 bytes, on x86-64. The ->bi_flags member is currently an unsigned long, but it fits easily within an int. Change it to an unsigned int, adjust the the pool offset code, and move ->bi_error into the new hole. Then we end up with a 128 byte bio again. Change the bio flag set/clear to use cmpxchg to ensure we don't lose any flags when manipulating them. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: manipulate bio->bi_flags through helpers

2015-07-29T14:55:20+00:00

Some places use helpers now, others don't. We only have the 'is set' helper, add helpers for setting and clearing flags too. It was a bit of a mess of atomic vs non-atomic access. With BIO_UPTODATE gone, we don't have any risk of concurrent access to the flags. So relax the restriction and don't make any of them atomic. The flags that do have serialization issues (reffed and chained), we already handle those separately. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
