2020-02-27dm cache: fix a crash due to incorrect work item cancellingMikulas Patocka1-2/+2
The crash can be reproduced by running the lvm2 testsuite test lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh for several minutes, e.g.: while :; do make check T=shell/lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh; done The crash happens in this call chain: do_waker -> policy_tick -> smq_tick -> end_hotspot_period -> clear_bitset -> memset -> __memset -- which accesses an invalid pointer in the vmalloc area. The work entry on the workqueue is executed even after the bitmap was freed. The problem is that cancel_delayed_work doesn't wait for the running work item to finish, so the work item can continue running and re-submitting itself even after cache_postsuspend. In order to make sure that the work item won't be running, we must use cancel_delayed_work_sync. Also, change flush_workqueue to drain_workqueue, so that if some work item submits itself or another work item, we are properly waiting for both of them.

If we are in a place where it is known that interrupts are enabled, functions spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq should be used instead of spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore. spin_lock_irq and spin_unlock_irq are faster because they don't need to push and pop the flags register.

2019-10-17dm cache: fix bugs when a GFP_NOWAIT allocation failsMikulas Patocka1-26/+2
GFP_NOWAIT allocation can fail anytime - it doesn't wait for memory being available and it fails if the mempool is exhausted and there is not enough memory. If we go down this path: map_bio -> mg_start -> alloc_migration -> mempool_alloc(GFP_NOWAIT) we can see that map_bio() doesn't check the return value of mg_start(), and the bio is leaked. If we go down this path: map_bio -> mg_start -> mg_lock_writes -> alloc_prison_cell -> dm_bio_prison_alloc_cell_v2 -> mempool_alloc(GFP_NOWAIT) -> mg_lock_writes -> mg_complete the bio is ended with an error - it is unacceptable because it could cause filesystem corruption if the machine ran out of memory temporarily. Change GFP_NOWAIT to GFP_NOIO, so that the mempool code will properly wait until memory becomes available. mempool_alloc with GFP_NOIO can't fail, so remove the code paths that deal with allocation failure.

2019-03-05dm cache: add support for discard passdown to the origin deviceMike Snitzer1-26/+100
DM cache now defaults to passing discards down to the origin device. User may disable this using the "no_discard_passdown" feature when creating the cache device. If the cache's underlying origin device doesn't support discards then passdown is disabled (with warning). Similarly, if the underlying origin device's max_discard_sectors is less than a cache block discard passdown will be disabled (this is required because sizing of the cache internal discard bitset depends on it).

2018-10-04dm cache: fix resize crash if user doesn't reload cache tableMike Snitzer1-2/+7
A reload of the cache's DM table is needed during resize because otherwise a crash will occur when attempting to access smq policy entries associated with the portion of the cache that was recently extended. The reason is cache-size based data structures in the policy will not be resized, the only way to safely extend the cache is to allow for a proper cache policy initialization that occurs when the cache table is loaded. For example the smq policy's space_init(), init_allocator(), calc_hotspot_params() must be sized based on the extended cache size. The fix for this is to disallow cache resizes of this pattern: 1) suspend "cache" target's device 2) resize the fast device used for the cache 3) resume "cache" target's device Instead, the last step must be a full reload of the cache's DM table.

2017-11-10dm cache: submit writethrough writes in parallel to origin and cacheMike Snitzer1-17/+37
Discontinue issuing writethrough write IO in series to the origin and then cache. Use bio_clone_fast() to create a new origin clone bio that will be mapped to the origin device and then bio_chain() it to the bio that gets remapped to the cache device. The origin clone bio does _not_ have a copy of the per_bio_data -- as such check_if_tick_bio_needed() will not be called. The cache bio (parent bio) will not complete until the origin bio has completed -- this fulfills bio_clone_fast()'s requirements as well as the requirement to not complete the original IO until the write IO has completed to both the origin and cache device.

2017-11-10dm cache: fix race condition in the writeback mode overwrite_bio optimisationJoe Thornber1-33/+53
When a DM cache in writeback mode moves data between the slow and fast device it can often avoid a copy if the triggering bio either: i) covers the whole block (no point copying if we're about to overwrite it) ii) the migration is a promotion and the origin block is currently discarded Prior to this fix there was a race with case (ii). The discard status was checked with a shared lock held (rather than exclusive). This meant another bio could run in parallel and write data to the origin, removing the discard state. After the promotion the parallel write would have been lost. With this fix the discard status is re-checked once the exclusive lock has been aquired. If the block is no longer discarded it falls back to the slower full copy path.

2017-08-23block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions indexChristoph Hellwig1-2/+2
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code). For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists once per block device. But given that the block layer also does partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is used for said remapping in generic_make_request. Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all over the stack.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - A major update for DM cache that reduces the latency for deciding whether blocks should migrate to/from the cache. The bio-prison-v2 interface supports this improvement by enabling direct dispatch of work to workqueues rather than having to delay the actual work dispatch to the DM cache core. So the dm-cache policies are much more nimble by being able to drive IO as they see fit. One immediate benefit from the improved latency is a cache that should be much more adaptive to changing workloads. - Add a new DM integrity target that emulates a block device that has additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing integrity information. - Add a new authenticated encryption feature to the DM crypt target that builds on the capabilities provided by the DM integrity target. - Add MD interface for switching the raid4/5/6 journal mode and update the DM raid target to use it to enable aid4/5/6 journal write-back support. - Switch the DM verity target over to using the asynchronous hash crypto API (this helps work better with architectures that have access to off-CPU algorithm providers, which should reduce CPU utilization). - Various request-based DM and DM multipath fixes and improvements from Bart and Christoph. - A DM thinp target fix for a bio structure leak that occurs for each discard IFF discard passdown is enabled. - A fix for a possible deadlock in DM bufio and a fix to re-check the new buffer allocation watermark in the face of competing admin changes to the 'max_cache_size_bytes' tunable. - A couple DM core cleanups. * tag 'for-4.12/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (50 commits) dm bufio: check new buffer allocation watermark every 30 seconds dm bufio: avoid a possible ABBA deadlock dm mpath: make it easier to detect unintended I/O request flushes dm mpath: cleanup QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH bit manipulation by introducing assign_bit() dm mpath: micro-optimize the hot path relative to MPATHF_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH dm: introduce enum dm_queue_mode to cleanup related code dm mpath: verify __pg_init_all_paths locking assumptions at runtime dm: verify suspend_locking assumptions at runtime dm block manager: remove an unused argument from dm_block_manager_create() dm rq: check blk_mq_register_dev() return value in dm_mq_init_request_queue() dm mpath: delay requeuing while path initialization is in progress dm mpath: avoid that path removal can trigger an infinite loop dm mpath: split and rename activate_path() to prepare for its expanded use dm ioctl: prevent stack leak in dm ioctl call dm integrity: use previously calculated log2 of sectors_per_block dm integrity: use hex2bin instead of open-coded variant dm crypt: replace custom implementation of hex2bin() dm crypt: remove obsolete references to per-CPU state dm verity: switch to using asynchronous hash crypto API dm crypt: use WQ_HIGHPRI for the IO and crypt workqueues ...

When loading metadata make sure to set/clear the dirty bits in the cache core's dirty_bitset as well as the policy. Otherwise the cache core is unaware that any blocks were dirty when the cache was last shutdown. A very serious side-effect being that the cleaner policy would therefore never be tasked with writing back dirty data from a cache that was in writeback mode (e.g. when switching from smq policy to cleaner policy when decommissioning a writeback cache).

The cache policy interfaces have been updated to work well with the new bio-prison v2 interface's ability to queue work immediately (promotion, demotion, etc) -- overriding benefit being reduced latency on processing IO through the cache. Previously such work would be left for the DM cache core to queue on various lists and then process in batches later -- this caused a serious delay in latency for IO driven by the cache. The background tracker code was factored out so that all cache policies can make use of it. Also, the "cleaner" policy has been removed and is now a variant of the smq policy that simply disallows migrations.

This improves speed of shutting down a large cache device (which implies writing out dirty bits). - Fix a memory leak during dm-stats data structure destruction. - Fix a DM multipath round-robin path selector performance regression that was caused by less precise balancing across all paths. - Lastly, introduce a DM core fix for a long-standing DM snapshot deadlock that is rooted in the complexity of the device stack used in conjunction with block core maintaining bios on current->bio_list to manage recursion in generic_make_request(). A more comprehensive fix to block core (and its hook in the cpu scheduler) would be wonderful but this DM-specific fix is pragmatic considering how difficult it has been to make progress on a generic fix. * tag 'dm-4.11-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (22 commits) dm: flush queued bios when process blocks to avoid deadlock dm round robin: revert "use percpu 'repeat_count' and 'current_path'" dm stats: fix a leaked s->histogram_boundaries array dm space map metadata: constify dm_space_map structures dm cache metadata: use cursor api in blocks_are_clean_separate_dirty() dm persistent data: add cursor skip functions to the cursor APIs dm cache metadata: use dm_bitset_new() to create the dirty bitset in format 2 dm bitset: add dm_bitset_new() dm cache metadata: name the cache block that couldn't be loaded dm cache metadata: add "metadata2" feature dm cache metadata: use bitset cursor api to load discard bitset dm bitset: introduce cursor api dm btree: use GFP_NOFS in dm_btree_del() dm space map common: memcpy the disk root to ensure it's arch aligned dm block manager: add unlikely() annotations on dm_bufio error paths dm cache: fix corruption seen when using cache > 2TB dm raid: cleanup awkward branching in raid_message() option processing dm raid: use mddev rather than rdev->mddev dm raid: use read_disk_sb() throughout dm raid: add raid4/5/6 journaling support ...
2017-02-16dm cache metadata: add "metadata2" featureJoe Thornber1-16/+22
If "metadata2" is provided as a table argument when creating/loading a cache target a more compact metadata format, with separate dirty bits, is used. "metadata2" improves speed of shutting down a cache target. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
2017-02-16dm cache: fix corruption seen when using cache > 2TBJoe Thornber1-3/+3
A rounding bug due to compiler generated temporary being 32bit was found in remap_to_cache(). A localized cast in remap_to_cache() fixes the corruption but this preferred fix (changing from uint32_t to sector_t) eliminates potential for future rounding errors elsewhere.

2017-02-02block: Use pointer to backing_dev_info from request_queueJan Kara1-1/+1
We will want to have struct backing_dev_info allocated separately from struct request_queue. As the first step add pointer to backing_dev_info to request_queue and convert all users touching it.

2016-08-07block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opfJens Axboe1-4/+4
Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger, rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break at compile time instead of at runtime. No intended functional changes in this commit.

2016-06-07block, drivers, fs: rename REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSHMike Christie1-6/+6
To avoid confusion between REQ_OP_FLUSH, which is handled by request_fn drivers, and upper layers requesting the block layer perform a flush sequence along with possibly a WRITE, this patch renames REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH.
