2011-01-14block cfq: compensate preempted queue even if it has no slice assignedShaohua Li1-4/+15
If a queue is preempted before it gets slice assigned, the queue doesn't get compensation, which looks unfair. For such queue, we compensate it for a whole slice. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
2011-01-14block cfq: make queue preempt work for queues from different workloadShaohua Li1-0/+9
I got this: fio-874 [007] 2157.724514: 8,32 m N cfq874 preempt fio-874 [007] 2157.724519: 8,32 m N cfq830 slice expired t=1 fio-874 [007] 2157.724520: 8,32 m N cfq830 sl_used=1 disp=0 charge=1 iops=0 sect=0 fio-874 [007] 2157.724521: 8,32 m N cfq830 set_active wl_prio:0 wl_type:0 fio-874 [007] 2157.724522: 8,32 m N cfq830 Not idling. st->count:1 cfq830 is an async queue, and preempted by a sync queue cfq874. But since we have cfqg->saved_workload_slice mechanism, the preempt is a nop. Looks currently our preempt is totally broken if the two queues are not from the same workload type. Below patch fixes it. This will might make async queue starvation, but it's what our old code does before cgroup is added.

2010-11-08cfq-iosched: don't idle if a deep seek queue is slowShaohua Li1-0/+11
If a deep seek queue slowly deliver requests but disk is much faster, idle for the queue just wastes disk throughput. If the queue delevers all requests before half its slice is used, the patch disable idle for it. In my test, application delivers 32 requests one time, the disk can accept 128 requests at maxium and disk is fast. without the patch, the throughput is just around 30m/s, while with it, the speed is about 80m/s. The disk is a SSD, but is detected as a rotational disk. I can configure it as SSD, but I thought the deep seek queue logic should be fixed too, for example, considering a fast raid.

A queue is idle at cfq_dispatch_requests(), but it gets noidle later. Unless other task explictly does unplug or all requests are drained, we will not deliever requests to the disk even cfq_arm_slice_timer doesn't make the queue idle. For example, cfq_should_idle() returns true because of service_tree->count == 1, and then other queues are added. Note, I didn't see obvious performance impacts so far with the patch, but just thought this could be a problem.

2010-10-01blkio: Recalculate the throttled bio dispatch time upon throttle limit changeVivek Goyal1-2/+2
o Currently any cgroup throttle limit changes are processed asynchronousy and the change does not take affect till a new bio is dispatched from same group. o It might happen that a user sets a redicuously low limit on throttling. Say 1 bytes per second on reads. In such cases simple operations like mount a disk can wait for a very long time. o Once bio is throttled, there is no easy way to come out of that wait even if user increases the read limit later. o This patch fixes it. Now if a user changes the cgroup limits, we recalculate the bio dispatch time according to new limits. o Can't take queueu lock under blkcg_lock, hence after the change I wake up the dispatch thread again which recalculates the time. So there are some variables being synchronized across two threads without lock and I had to make use of barriers. Hoping I have used barriers correctly. Any review of memory barrier code especially will help. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2010-09-20cfq: improve fsync performance for small filesCorrado Zoccolo1-14/+4
Fsync performance for small files achieved by cfq on high-end disks is lower than what deadline can achieve, due to idling introduced between the sync write happening in process context and the journal commit. Moreover, when competing with a sequential reader, a process writing small files and fsync-ing them is starved. This patch fixes the two problems by: - marking journal commits as WRITE_SYNC, so that they get the REQ_NOIDLE flag set, - force all queues that have REQ_NOIDLE requests to be put in the noidle tree. Having the queue associated to the fsync-ing process and the one associated to journal commits in the noidle tree allows: - switching between them without idling, - fairness vs. competing idling queues, since they will be serviced only after the noidle tree expires its slice.

o Implement another CFQ mode where we charge group in terms of number of requests dispatched instead of measuring the time. Measuring in terms of time is not possible when we are driving deeper queue depths and there are requests from multiple cfq queues in the request queue. o This mode currently gets activated if one sets slice_idle=0 and associated disk supports NCQ. Again the idea is that on an NCQ disk with idling disabled most of the queues will dispatch 1 or more requests and then cfq queue expiry happens and we don't have a way to measure time. So start providing fairness in terms of IOPS. o Currently IOPS mode works only with cfq group scheduling. CFQ is following different scheduling algorithms for queue and group scheduling. These IOPS stats are used only for group scheduling hence in non-croup mode nothing should change. o For CFQ group scheduling one can disable slice idling so that we don't idle on queue and drive deeper request queue depths (achieving better throughput), at the same time group idle is enabled so one should get service differentiation among groups.

2010-06-17cfq: Don't allow queue merges for queues that have no process referencesJeff Moyer1-2/+11
Hi, A user reported a kernel bug when running a particular program that did the following: created 32 threads - each thread took a mutex, grabbed a global offset, added a buffer size to that offset, released the lock - read from the given offset in the file - created a new thread to do the same - exited The result is that cfq's close cooperator logic would trigger, as the threads were issuing I/O within the mean seek distance of one another. This workload managed to routinely trigger a use after free bug when walking the list of merge candidates for a particular cfqq (cfqq->new_cfqq). The logic used for merging queues looks like this: static void cfq_setup_merge(struct cfq_queue *cfqq, struct cfq_queue *new_cfqq) { int process_refs, new_process_refs; struct cfq_queue *__cfqq; /* Avoid a circular list and skip interim queue merges */ while ((__cfqq = new_cfqq->new_cfqq)) { if (__cfqq == cfqq) return; new_cfqq = __cfqq; } process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(cfqq); /* * If the process for the cfqq has gone away, there is no * sense in merging the queues. */ if (process_refs == 0) return; /* * Merge in the direction of the lesser amount of work. */ new_process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(new_cfqq); if (new_process_refs >= process_refs) { cfqq->new_cfqq = new_cfqq; atomic_add(process_refs, &new_cfqq->ref); } else { new_cfqq->new_cfqq = cfqq; atomic_add(new_process_refs, &cfqq->ref); } } When a merge candidate is found, we add the process references for the queue with less references to the queue with more. The actual merging of queues happens when a new request is issued for a given cfqq. In the case of the test program, it only does a single pread call to read in 1MB, so the actual merge never happens. Normally, this is fine, as when the queue exits, we simply drop the references we took on the other cfqqs in the merge chain: /* * If this queue was scheduled to merge with another queue, be * sure to drop the reference taken on that queue (and others in * the merge chain). See cfq_setup_merge and cfq_merge_cfqqs. */ __cfqq = cfqq->new_cfqq; while (__cfqq) { if (__cfqq == cfqq) { WARN(1, "cfqq->new_cfqq loop detected\n"); break; } next = __cfqq->new_cfqq; cfq_put_queue(__cfqq); __cfqq = next; } However, there is a hole in this logic. Consider the following (and keep in mind that each I/O keeps a reference to the cfqq): q1->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 2 process references q3->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 3 process references // the process associated with q2 exits // q2 now has 2 process references // queue 1 exits, drops its reference on q2 // q2 now has 1 process reference // q3 exits, so has 0 process references, and hence drops its references // to q2, which leaves q2 also with 0 process references q4 comes along and wants to merge with q3 q3->new_cfqq still points at q2! We follow that link and end up at an already freed cfqq. So, the fix is to not follow a merge chain if the top-most queue does not have a process reference, otherwise any queue in the chain could be already freed. I also changed the logic to disallow merging with a queue that does not have any process references. Previously, we did this check for one of the merge candidates, but not the other. That doesn't really make sense. Without the attached patch, my system would BUG within a couple of seconds of running the reproducer program. With the patch applied, my system ran the program for over an hour without issues. This addresses the following bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16217 Thanks a ton to Phil Carns for providing the bug report and an excellent reproducer.

2010-05-24cfq-iosched: compact io_context radix_treeKonstantin Khlebnikov1-5/+39
Use small consequent indexes as radix tree keys instead of sparse cfqd address. This change will reduce radix tree depth from 11 (6 for 32-bit hosts) to 1 if host have <=64 disks under cfq control, or to 0 if there only one disk. So, this patch save 10*560 bytes for each process (5*296 for 32-bit hosts) For each cfqd allocate cic index from ida. To unlink dead cic from tree without cfqd access store index into ->key. (bit 0 -- dead mark, bits 1..30 -- index: ida produce id in range 0..2^31-1) Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Remove ->dead_key field from cfq_io_context to shrink its size to 128 bytes. (64 bytes for 32-bit hosts) Use lower bit in ->key as dead-mark, instead of moving key to separate field. After this for dead cfq_io_context we got cic->key != cfqd automatically. Thus, io_context's last-hit cache should work without changing. Now to check ->key for non-dead state compare it with cfqd, instead of checking ->key for non-null value as it was before. Plus remove obsolete race protection in cfq_cic_lookup.

2010-04-26blk-cgroup: config options re-arrangementVivek Goyal1-1/+1
This patch fixes few usability and configurability issues. o All the cgroup based controller options are configurable from "Genral Setup/Control Group Support/" menu. blkio is the only exception. Hence make this option visible in above menu and make it configurable from there to bring it inline with rest of the cgroup based controllers. o Get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED. This option currently does two things. - Enable printing of cgroup paths in blktrace - Enables CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP, which in turn displays additional stat files in cgroup. If we are using group scheduling, blktrace data is of not really much use if cgroup information is not present. To get this data, currently one has to also enable CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED, which in turn brings the overhead of all the additional debug stat files which is not desired. Hence, this patch moves printing of cgroup paths under CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED. This allows us to get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED completely. Now all the debug stat files are controlled only by CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP which can be enabled through config menu.

2010-04-26blkio: Fix another BUG_ON() crash due to cfqq movement across groupsVivek Goyal1-17/+16
o Once in a while, I was hitting a BUG_ON() in blkio code. empty_time was assuming that upon slice expiry, group can't be marked empty already (except forced dispatch). But this assumption is broken if cfqq can move (group_isolation=0) across groups after receiving a request. I think most likely in this case we got a request in a cfqq and accounted the rq in one group, later while adding the cfqq to tree, we moved the queue to a different group which was already marked empty and after dispatch from slice we found group already marked empty and raised alarm. This patch does not error out if group is already marked empty. This can introduce some empty_time stat error only in case of group_isolation=0. This is better than crashing. In case of group_isolation=1 we should still get same stats as before this patch. [ 222.308546] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 222.309311] kernel BUG at block/blk-cgroup.c:236!

2010-04-21blkio: Fix blkio crash during rq stat updateVivek Goyal1-10/+26
blkio + cfq was crashing even when two sequential readers were put in two separate cgroups (group_isolation=0). The reason being that cfqq can migrate across groups based on its being sync-noidle or not, it can happen that at request insertion time, cfqq belonged to one cfqg and at request dispatch time, it belonged to root group. In this case request stats per cgroup can go wrong and it also runs into BUG_ON(). This patch implements rq stashing away a cfq group pointer and not relying on cfqq->cfqg pointer alone for rq stat accounting.

2010-04-13io-controller: Add a new interface "weight_device" for IO-ControllerGui Jianfeng1-1/+1
Currently, IO Controller makes use of blkio.weight to assign weight for all devices. Here a new user interface "blkio.weight_device" is introduced to assign different weights for different devices. blkio.weight becomes the default value for devices which are not configured by "blkio.weight_device" You can use the following format to assigned specific weight for a given device: #echo "major:minor weight" > blkio.weight_device major:minor represents device number. And you can remove weight for a given device as following: #echo "major:minor 0" > blkio.weight_device V1->V2 changes: - use user interface "weight_device" instead of "policy" suggested by Vivek - rename some struct suggested by Vivek - rebase to 2.6-block "for-linus" branch - remove an useless list_empty check pointed out by Li Zefan - some trivial typo fix V2->V3 changes: - Move policy_*_node() functions up to get rid of forward declarations - rename related functions by adding prefix "blkio_" Signed-off-by: Gui Jianfeng <guijianfeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2010-04-09cfq-iosched: Fix the incorrect timeslice accounting with forced_dispatchDivyesh Shah1-2/+5
When CFQ dispatches requests forcefully due to a barrier or changing iosched, it runs through all cfqq's dispatching requests and then expires each queue. However, it does not activate a cfqq before flushing its IOs resulting in using stale values for computing slice_used. This patch fixes it by calling activate queue before flushing reuqests from each queue. This is useful mostly for barrier requests because when the iosched is changing it really doesnt matter if we have incorrect accounting since we're going to break down all structures anyway. We also now expire the current timeslice before moving on with the dispatch to accurately account slice used for that cfqq.

2010-04-09blkio: Add more debug-only per-cgroup statsDivyesh Shah1-18/+32
1) group_wait_time - This is the amount of time the cgroup had to wait to get a timeslice for one of its queues from when it became busy, i.e., went from 0 to 1 request queued. This is different from the io_wait_time which is the cumulative total of the amount of time spent by each IO in that cgroup waiting in the scheduler queue. This stat is a great way to find out any jobs in the fleet that are being starved or waiting for longer than what is expected (due to an IO controller bug or any other issue). 2) empty_time - This is the amount of time a cgroup spends w/o any pending requests. This stat is useful when a job does not seem to be able to use its assigned disk share by helping check if that is happening due to an IO controller bug or because the job is not submitting enough IOs. 3) idle_time - This is the amount of time spent by the IO scheduler idling for a given cgroup in anticipation of a better request than the exising ones from other queues/cgroups. All these stats are recorded using start and stop events. When reading these stats, we do not add the delta between the current time and the last start time if we're between the start and stop events. We avoid doing this to make sure that these numbers are always monotonically increasing when read. Since we're using sched_clock() which may use the tsc as its source, it may induce some inconsistency (due to tsc resync across cpus) if we included the current delta.

2010-04-09blkio: Add io_queued and avg_queue_size statsDivyesh Shah1-0/+11
These stats are useful for getting a feel for the queue depth of the cgroup, i.e., how filled up its queues are at a given instant and over the existence of the cgroup. This ability is useful when debugging problems in the wild as it helps understand the application's IO pattern w/o having to read through the userspace code (coz its tedious or just not available) or w/o the ability to run blktrace (since you may not have root access and/or not want to disturb performance).

2010-04-09blkio: Add io_merged statDivyesh Shah1-0/+11
This includes both the number of bios merged into requests belonging to this cgroup as well as the number of requests merged together. In the past, we've observed different merging behavior across upstream kernels, some by design some actual bugs. This stat helps a lot in debugging such problems when applications report decreased throughput with a new kernel version. This needed adding an extra elevator function to capture bios being merged as I did not want to pollute elevator code with blkiocg knowledge and hence needed the accounting invocation to come from CFQ.
