block: Move SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT definitions into

2018-03-17T20:45:23+00:00

It happens often while I'm preparing a patch for a block driver that I'm wondering: is a definition of SECTOR_SIZE and/or SECTOR_SHIFT available for this driver? Do I have to introduce definitions of these constants before I can use these constants? To avoid this confusion, move the existing definitions of SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT into the header file such that these become available for all block drivers. Make the SECTOR_SIZE definition in the uapi msdos_fs.h header file conditional to avoid that including that header file after causes the compiler to complain about a SECTOR_SIZE redefinition. Note: the SECTOR_SIZE / SECTOR_SHIFT / SECTOR_BITS definitions have not been removed from uapi header files nor from NAND drivers in which these constants are used for another purpose than converting block layer offsets and sizes into a number of sectors.

block: null_blk: fix 'Invalid parameters' when loading module

2018-03-06T17:35:09+00:00

On ARM64, the default page size has been 64K on some distributions, and we should allow ARM64 people to play null_blk. This patch fixes the issue by extend page bitmap size for supporting other non-4KB PAGE_SIZE.

null_blk: add 'requeue' fault attribute

2018-02-28T19:23:35+00:00

Similarly to the support we have for testing/faking timeouts for null_blk, this adds support for triggering a requeue condition. Considering the issues around restart we've been seeing, this should be a useful addition to the testing arsenal to ensure that we are handling requeue conditions correctly. This works for queue mode 1 (legacy request_fn based path) and 2 (blk-mq path), as there's no good way to do requeue with a bio based driver. This is similar to the timeout path. For the blk-mq path, we alternate between passing back BLK_STS_RESOURCE and manually calling blk_mq_requeue_request() in the driver. The former will hit the core requeue path, while the latter exercises the IO scheduler requeue path. Reviewed-by: Bart Van Assche Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: introduce BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE

2018-01-31T03:18:28+00:00

This status is returned from driver to block layer if device related resource is unavailable, but driver can guarantee that IO dispatch will be triggered in future when the resource is available. Convert some drivers to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. Also, if driver returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE and SCHED_RESTART is set, rerun queue after a delay (BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE) to avoid IO stalls. BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE is 3 ms because both scsi-mq and nvmefc are using that magic value. If a driver can make sure there is in-flight IO, it is safe to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE because: 1) If all in-flight IOs complete before examining SCHED_RESTART in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), SCHED_RESTART must be cleared, so queue is run immediately in this case by blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(); 2) if there is any in-flight IO after/when examining SCHED_RESTART in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(): - if SCHED_RESTART isn't set, queue is run immediately as handled in 1) - otherwise, this request will be dispatched after any in-flight IO is completed via blk_mq_sched_restart() 3) if SCHED_RESTART is set concurently in context because of BLK_STS_RESOURCE, blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() will cover the above two cases and make sure IO hang can be avoided. One invariant is that queue will be rerun if SCHED_RESTART is set. Suggested-by: Jens Axboe Tested-by: Laurence Oberman Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

Merge branch 'for-4.16/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2018-01-29T19:51:49+00:00

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main pull request for block IO related changes for the 4.16 kernel. Nothing major in this pull request, but a good amount of improvements and fixes all over the map. This contains: - BFQ improvements, fixes, and cleanups from Angelo, Chiara, and Paolo. - Support for SMR zones for deadline and mq-deadline from Damien and Christoph. - Set of fixes for bcache by way of Michael Lyle, including fixes from himself, Kent, Rui, Tang, and Coly. - Series from Matias for lightnvm with fixes from Hans Holmberg, Javier, and Matias. Mostly centered around pblk, and the removing rrpc 1.2 in preparation for supporting 2.0. - A couple of NVMe pull requests from Christoph. Nothing major in here, just fixes and cleanups, and support for command tracing from Johannes. - Support for blk-throttle for tracking reads and writes separately. From Joseph Qi. A few cleanups/fixes also for blk-throttle from Weiping. - Series from Mike Snitzer that enables dm to register its queue more logically, something that's alwways been problematic on dm since it's a stacked device. - Series from Ming cleaning up some of the bio accessor use, in preparation for supporting multipage bvecs. - Various fixes from Ming closing up holes around queue mapping and quiescing. - BSD partition fix from Richard Narron, fixing a problem where we can't mount newer (10/11) FreeBSD partitions. - Series from Tejun reworking blk-mq timeout handling. The previous scheme relied on atomic bits, but it had races where we would think a request had timed out if it to reused at the wrong time. - null_blk now supports faking timeouts, to enable us to better exercise and test that functionality separately. From me. - Kill the separate atomic poll bit in the request struct. After this, we don't use the atomic bits on blk-mq anymore at all. From me. - sgl_alloc/free helpers from Bart. - Heavily contended tag case scalability improvement from me. - Various little fixes and cleanups from Arnd, Bart, Corentin, Douglas, Eryu, Goldwyn, and myself" * 'for-4.16/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (186 commits) block: remove smart1,2.h nvme: add tracepoint for nvme_complete_rq nvme: add tracepoint for nvme_setup_cmd nvme-pci: introduce RECONNECTING state to mark initializing procedure nvme-rdma: remove redundant boolean for inline_data nvme: don't free uuid pointer before printing it nvme-pci: Suspend queues after deleting them bsg: use pr_debug instead of hand crafted macros blk-mq-debugfs: don't allow write on attributes with seq_operations set nvme-pci: Fix queue double allocations block: Set BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION on new bio during split blk-throttle: use queue_is_rq_based block: Remove kblockd_schedule_delayed_work{,_on}() blk-mq: Avoid that blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() introduces unintended delays blk-mq: Rename blk_mq_request_direct_issue() into blk_mq_request_issue_directly() lib/scatterlist: Fix chaining support in sgl_alloc_order() blk-throttle: track read and write request individually block: add bdev_read_only() checks to common helpers block: fail op_is_write() requests to read-only partitions blk-throttle: export io_serviced_recursive, io_service_bytes_recursive ...

null_blk: remove explicit 'select FAULT_INJECTION'

2018-01-11T14:58:31+00:00

Selecting FAULT_INJECTION causes a Kconfig warning when CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL is not set: warning: (BLK_DEV_NULL_BLK && DRM_I915_SELFTEST) selects FAULT_INJECTION which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL) The other drivers that use FAULT_INJECTION tend to have a separate Kconfig symbol for turning on that feature, so let's do the same thing here. This may add a bit more complexity than we like, but it avoids the warning and is more consistent with the rest of the kernel.

null_blk: add option for managing IO timeouts

2018-01-10T16:06:23+00:00

Use the fault injection framework to provide a way for null_blk to configure timeouts. This only works for queue_mode 1 and 2, since the bio mode doesn't have code for tracking timeouts. Let's say you want to have a 10% chance of timing out every 100,000 requests, and for 5 total timeouts, you could do: modprobe null_blk timeout="100000,10,0,5" This is useful for adding blktests to test that IO timeouts are handled appropriately.

null_blk: wire up timeouts

2018-01-09T21:59:19+00:00

This is needed to ensure that we actually handle timeouts. Without it, the queue_mode=1 path will never call blk_add_timer(), and the queue_mode=2 path will continually just return EH_RESET_TIMER and we never actually complete the offending request. This was used to test the new timeout code, and the changes around killing off REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
