block: rework zone reporting

2019-11-13T02:12:07+00:00

Avoid the need to allocate a potentially large array of struct blk_zone in the block layer by switching the ->report_zones method interface to a callback model. Now the caller simply supplies a callback that is executed on each reported zone, and private data for it.

dm: add zone open, close and finish support

2019-11-07T13:36:08+00:00

Implement REQ_OP_ZONE_OPEN, REQ_OP_ZONE_CLOSE and REQ_OP_ZONE_FINISH support to allow explicit control of zone states. Contains contributions from Matias Bjorling, Hans Holmberg and Damien Le Moal.

block: Kill gfp_t argument of blkdev_report_zones()

2019-07-12T02:04:37+00:00

Only GFP_KERNEL and GFP_NOIO are used with blkdev_report_zones(). In preparation of using vmalloc() for large report buffer and zone array allocations used by this function, remove its "gfp_t gfp_mask" argument and rely on the caller context to use memalloc_noio_save/restore() where necessary (block layer zone revalidation and dm-zoned I/O error path).

dm: Check for device sector overflow if CONFIG_LBDAF is not set

2018-12-18T14:02:26+00:00

Reference to a device in device-mapper table contains offset in sectors. If the sector_t is 32bit integer (CONFIG_LBDAF is not set), then several device-mapper targets can overflow this offset and validity check is then performed on a wrong offset and a wrong table is activated. See for example (on 32bit without CONFIG_LBDAF) this overflow: # dmsetup create test --table "0 2048 linear /dev/sdg 4294967297" # dmsetup table test 0 2048 linear 8:96 1 This patch adds explicit check for overflow if the offset is sector_t type.

block: add a report_zones method

2018-10-25T17:17:40+00:00

Dispatching a report zones command through the request queue is a major pain due to the command reply payload rewriting necessary. Given that blkdev_report_zones() is executing everything synchronously, implement report zones as a block device file operation instead, allowing major simplification of the code in many places. sd, null-blk, dm-linear and dm-flakey being the only block device drivers supporting exposing zoned block devices, these drivers are modified to provide the device side implementation of the report_zones() block device file operation. For device mappers, a new report_zones() target type operation is defined so that the upper block layer calls blkdev_report_zones() can be propagated down to the underlying devices of the dm targets. Implementation for this new operation is added to the dm-linear and dm-flakey targets.

dm linear: fix linear_end_io conditional definition

2018-10-11T03:22:24+00:00

The dm-linear target is independent of the dm-zoned target. For code requiring support for zoned block devices, use CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED instead of CONFIG_DM_ZONED. While at it, similarly to dm linear, also enable the DM_TARGET_ZONED_HM feature in dm-flakey only if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is defined.

dm linear: eliminate linear_end_io call if CONFIG_DM_ZONED disabled

2018-10-10T16:11:09+00:00

It is best to avoid any extra overhead associated with bio completion. DM core will indirectly call a DM target's .end_io if it is defined. In the case of DM linear, there is no need to do so (for every bio that completes) if CONFIG_DM_ZONED is not enabled. Avoiding an extra indirect call for every bio completion is very important for ensuring DM linear doesn't incur more overhead that further widens the performance gap between dm-linear and raw block devices.

dax: Introduce a ->copy_to_iter dax operation

2018-05-23T06:18:31+00:00

Similar to the ->copy_from_iter() operation, a platform may want to deploy an architecture or device specific routine for handling reads from a dax_device like /dev/pmemX. On x86 this routine will point to a machine check safe version of copy_to_iter(). For now, add the plumbing to device-mapper and the dax core.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2018-04-10T17:25:57+00:00

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were several late changes that have only now just settled. Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f145 ("fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases. The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment. The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight. A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for 4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot over 156 configs. An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and passing all unit tests. The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event() functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will need to wait for 4.18. Summary: - A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection of unmap operations (truncate / hole punch) colliding with in-progress device-DMA. A fix for these collisions remains a work-in-progress pending resolution of truncate latency and starvation regressions. - The of_pmem driver expands the users of libnvdimm outside of x86 and ACPI to describe an implementation of persistent memory on PowerPC with Open Firmware / Device tree. - Address Range Scrub (ARS) handling is completely rewritten to account for the fact that ARS may run for 100s of seconds and there is no platform defined way to cancel it. ARS will now no longer block namespace initialization. - The NVDIMM Namespace Label implementation is updated to handle label areas as small as 1K, down from 128K. - Miscellaneous cleanups and updates to unit test infrastructure" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (39 commits) libnvdimm, of_pmem: workaround OF_NUMA=n build error nfit, address-range-scrub: add module option to skip initial ars nfit, address-range-scrub: rework and simplify ARS state machine nfit, address-range-scrub: determine one platform max_ars value powerpc/powernv: Create platform devs for nvdimm buses doc/devicetree: Persistent memory region bindings libnvdimm: Add device-tree based driver libnvdimm: Add of_node to region and bus descriptors libnvdimm, region: quiet region probe libnvdimm, namespace: use a safe lookup for dimm device name libnvdimm, dimm: fix dpa reservation vs uninitialized label area libnvdimm, testing: update the default smart ctrl_temperature libnvdimm, testing: Add emulation for smart injection commands nfit, address-range-scrub: introduce nfit_spa->ars_state libnvdimm: add an api to cast a 'struct nd_region' to its 'struct device' nfit, address-range-scrub: fix scrub in-progress reporting dax, dm: allow device-mapper to operate without dax support dax: introduce CONFIG_DAX_DRIVER fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn if truncate collides with a busy page ext2, dax: introduce ext2_dax_aops ...

dm: remove fmode_t argument from .prepare_ioctl hook

2018-04-04T16:12:39+00:00

Use the fmode_t that is passed to dm_blk_ioctl() rather than inconsistently (varies across targets) drop it on the floor by overriding it with the fmode_t stored in 'struct dm_dev'. All the persistent reservation functions weren't using the fmode_t they got back from .prepare_ioctl so remove them. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer
