* blk-mq: Clarify comments in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list()Bart Van Assche2017-04-071-10/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() implementation got modified several times but the comments in that function were not updated every time. Since it is nontrivial what is going on, update the comments in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list().

* blk-mq: Make it safe to use RCU to iterate over blk_mq_tag_set.tag_listBart Van Assche2017-04-071-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the next patch in this series will use RCU to iterate over tag_list, make this safe. Add lockdep_assert_held() statements in functions that iterate over tag_list to make clear that using list_for_each_entry() instead of list_for_each_entry_rcu() is fine in these functions.

* blk-mq-sched: provide hooks for initializing hardware queue dataOmar Sandoval2017-04-072-42/+43
| | | | | | | | | | Schedulers need to be informed when a hardware queue is added or removed at runtime so they can allocate/free per-hardware queue data. So, replace the blk_mq_sched_init_hctx_data() helper, which only makes sense at init time, with .init_hctx() and .exit_hctx() hooks.

* Merge branch 'for-linus' into for-4.12/blockJens Axboe2017-04-076-146/+262
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We've added a considerable amount of fixes for stalls and issues with the blk-mq scheduling in the 4.11 series since forking off the for-4.12/block branch. We need to do improvements on top of that for 4.12, so pull in the previous fixes to make our lives easier going forward. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
| * blk-mq: Restart a single queue if tag sets are sharedBart Van Assche2017-04-073-26/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To improve scalability, if hardware queues are shared, restart a single hardware queue in round-robin fashion. Rename blk_mq_sched_restart_queues() to reflect the new semantics. Remove blk_mq_sched_mark_restart_queue() because this function has no callers. Remove flag QUEUE_FLAG_RESTART because this patch removes the code that uses this flag.

| * blk-mq: remap queues when adding/removing hardware queuesOmar Sandoval2017-04-071-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() used to remap hardware queues, which is the behavior that drivers expect. However, commit 4e68a011428a changed blk_mq_queue_reinit() to not remap queues for the case of CPU hotplugging, inadvertently making blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() not remap queues as well. This breaks, for example, NBD's multi-connection mode, leaving the added hardware queues unused. Fix it by making blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() explicitly remap the queues.

| * blk-mq-sched: fix crash in switch error pathOmar Sandoval2017-04-075-47/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In elevator_switch(), if blk_mq_init_sched() fails, we attempt to fall back to the original scheduler. However, at this point, we've already torn down the original scheduler's tags, so this causes a crash. Doing the fallback like the legacy elevator path is much harder for mq, so fix it by just falling back to none, instead.

| * blk-mq: use the right hctx when getting a driver tag failsOmar Sandoval2017-04-073-17/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While dispatching requests, if we fail to get a driver tag, we mark the hardware queue as waiting for a tag and put the requests on a hctx->dispatch list to be run later when a driver tag is freed. However, blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() may dispatch requests from multiple hardware queues if using a single-queue scheduler with a multiqueue device. If blk_mq_get_driver_tag() fails, it doesn't update the hardware queue we are processing. This means we end up using the hardware queue of the previous request, which may or may not be the same as that of the current request. If it isn't, the wrong hardware queue will end up waiting for a tag, and the requests will be on the wrong dispatch list, leading to a hang. The fix is twofold: 1. Make sure we save which hardware queue we were trying to get a request for in blk_mq_get_driver_tag() regardless of whether it succeeds or not. 2. Make blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() take a request_queue instead of a blk_mq_hw_queue to make it clear that it must handle multiple hardware queues, since I've already messed this up on a couple of occasions. This didn't appear in testing with nvme and mq-deadline because nvme has more driver tags than the default number of scheduler tags. However, with the blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() fix, it showed up with nbd. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we return true in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() if we queued IO successfully, but we really want to return whether or not the we made progress.

In current implementation of blk_mq_check_expired(), if the request queue becomes dying, un-started requests are handled as being completed/freed immediately. This way is wrong, and can cause rq corruption or double allocation[1][2], when doing I/O and removing&resetting NVMe device at the sametime. This patch fixes several issues reported by Yi Zhang.

Now that we have bio_chain() and bio_inc_remaining(), it is not possible, in general, for a driver to know when the bio is really complete. Only bio_endio() knows that. So move the trace_block_bio_complete() call to bio_endio(). Now trace_block_bio_complete() pairs with trace_block_bio_queue(). Any bio for which a 'queue' event is traced, will subsequently generate a 'complete' event. There are a few cases where completion tracing is not wanted. 1/ If blk_update_request() has already generated a completion trace event at the 'request' level, there is no point generating one at the bio level too. In this case the bi_sector and bi_size will have changed, so the bio level event would be wrong 2/ If the bio hasn't actually been queued yet, but is being aborted early, then a trace event could be confusing. Some filesystems call bio_endio() but do not want tracing. 3/ The bio_integrity code interposes itself by replacing bi_end_io, then restoring it and calling bio_endio() again. This would produce two identical trace events if left like that. To handle these, we introduce a flag BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION and only produce the trace event when this is set. We address point 1 above by clearing the flag in blk_update_request(). We address point 2 above by only setting the flag when generic_make_request() is called. We address point 3 above by clearing the flag after generating a completion event. When bio_split() is used on a bio, particularly in blk_queue_split(), there is an extra complication. A new bio is split off the front, and may be handle directly without going through generic_make_request(). The old bio, which has been advanced, is passed to generic_make_request(), so it will trigger a trace event a second time. Probably the best result when a split happens is to see a single 'queue' event for the whole bio, then multiple 'complete' events - one for each component. To achieve this was can: - copy the BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION flag to the new bio in bio_split() - avoid generating a 'queue' event if BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION is already set. This way, the split-off bio won't create a queue event, the original won't either even if it re-submitted to generic_make_request(), but both will produce completion events, each for their own range. So if generic_make_request() is called (which generates a QUEUED event), then bi_endio() will create a single COMPLETE event for each range that the bio is split into, unless the driver has explicitly requested it not to.

As a result async writeback can get starved in presence of readers. As an example take a benchmark simulating postgreSQL database running over a standard rotating SATA drive. There are 16 processes doing random reads from a huge file (2*machine memory), 1 process doing random writes to the huge file and calling fsync once per 50000 writes and 1 process doing sequential 8k writes to a relatively small file wrapping around at the end of the file and calling fsync every 5 writes. Under this load read latency easily exceeds the target latency of 75 ms (just because there are so many reads happening against a relatively slow disk) and thus writeback is throttled to a point where only 1 write request is allowed at a time. Blktrace data then looks like: 8,0 1 0 8.347751764 0 m N cfq workload slice:40000000 8,0 1 0 8.347755256 0 m N cfq293A / set_active wl_class: 0 wl_type:0 8,0 1 0 8.347784100 0 m N cfq293A / Not idling. st->count:1 8,0 1 3814 8.347763916 5839 UT N [kworker/u9:2] 1 8,0 0 0 8.347777605 0 m N cfq293A / Not idling. st->count:1 8,0 1 0 8.347784100 0 m N cfq293A / Not idling. st->count:1 8,0 3 1596 8.354364057 0 C R 156109528 + 8 (6906954) [0] 8,0 3 0 8.354383193 0 m N cfq6196SN / complete rqnoidle 0 8,0 3 0 8.354386476 0 m N cfq schedule dispatch 8,0 3 0 8.354399397 0 m N cfq293A / Not idling. st->count:1 8,0 3 0 8.354404705 0 m N cfq293A / dispatch_insert 8,0 3 0 8.354409454 0 m N cfq293A / dispatched a request 8,0 3 0 8.354412527 0 m N cfq293A / activate rq, drv=1 8,0 3 1597 8.354414692 0 D W 145961400 + 24 (6718452) [swapper/0] 8,0 3 0 8.354484184 0 m N cfq293A / Not idling. st->count:1 8,0 3 0 8.354487536 0 m N cfq293A / slice expired t=0 8,0 3 0 8.354498013 0 m N / served: vt=5888102466265088 min_vt=5888074869387264 8,0 3 0 8.354502692 0 m N cfq293A / sl_used=6737519 disp=1 charge=6737519 iops=0 sect=24 8,0 3 0 8.354505695 0 m N cfq293A / del_from_rr ... 8,0 0 1810 8.354728768 0 C W 145961400 + 24 (314076) [0] 8,0 0 0 8.354746927 0 m N cfq293A / complete rqnoidle 0 ... 8,0 1 3829 8.389886102 5839 G W 145962968 + 24 [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 3830 8.389888127 5839 P N [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 3831 8.389908102 5839 A W 145978336 + 24 <- (8,4) 44000 8,0 1 3832 8.389910477 5839 Q W 145978336 + 24 [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 3833 8.389914248 5839 I W 145962968 + 24 (28146) [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 0 8.389919137 0 m N cfq293A / insert_request 8,0 1 0 8.389924305 0 m N cfq293A / add_to_rr 8,0 1 3834 8.389933175 5839 UT N [kworker/u9:2] 1 ... 8,0 0 0 9.455290997 0 m N cfq workload slice:40000000 8,0 0 0 9.455294769 0 m N cfq293A / set_active wl_class:0 wl_type:0 8,0 0 0 9.455303499 0 m N cfq293A / fifo=ffff880003166090 8,0 0 0 9.455306851 0 m N cfq293A / dispatch_insert 8,0 0 0 9.455311251 0 m N cfq293A / dispatched a request 8,0 0 0 9.455314324 0 m N cfq293A / activate rq, drv=1 8,0 0 2043 9.455316210 6204 D W 145962968 + 24 (1065401962) [pgioperf] 8,0 0 0 9.455392407 0 m N cfq293A / Not idling. st->count:1 8,0 0 0 9.455395969 0 m N cfq293A / slice expired t=0 8,0 0 0 9.455404210 0 m N / served: vt=5888958194597888 min_vt=5888941810597888 8,0 0 0 9.455410077 0 m N cfq293A / sl_used=4000000 disp=1 charge=4000000 iops=0 sect=24 8,0 0 0 9.455416851 0 m N cfq293A / del_from_rr ... 8,0 0 2045 9.455648515 0 C W 145962968 + 24 (332305) [0] 8,0 0 0 9.455668350 0 m N cfq293A / complete rqnoidle 0 ... 8,0 1 4371 9.455710115 5839 G W 145978336 + 24 [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 4372 9.455712350 5839 P N [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 4373 9.455730159 5839 A W 145986616 + 24 <- (8,4) 52280 8,0 1 4374 9.455732674 5839 Q W 145986616 + 24 [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 4375 9.455737563 5839 I W 145978336 + 24 (27448) [kworker/u9:2] 8,0 1 0 9.455742871 0 m N cfq293A / insert_request 8,0 1 0 9.455747550 0 m N cfq293A / add_to_rr 8,0 1 4376 9.455756629 5839 UT N [kworker/u9:2] 1 So we can see a Q event for a write request, then IO is blocked by writeback throttling and G and I events for the request happen only once other writeback IO is completed. Thus CFQ always sees only one write request. When it sees it, it queues the async queue behind all the read queues and the async queue gets scheduled after about one second. When it is scheduled, that one request gets dispatched and async queue is expired as it has no more requests to submit. Overall we submit about one write request per second. Although this scheduling is beneficial for read latency, writes are heavily starved and this causes large delays all over the system (due to processes blocking on page lock, transaction starts, etc.). When writeback throttling is disabled, write throughput is about one fifth of a read throughput which roughly matches readers/writers ratio and overall the system stalls are much shorter. Mixing writeback throttling logic with CFQ throttling logic is always a recipe for surprises as CFQ assumes it sees the big part of the picture which is not necessarily true when writeback throttling is blocking requests. So disable writeback throttling logic by default when CFQ is used as an IO scheduler. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 4.10 I introduced a patch that associates the ioc priority with each request in the block layer. This work was done in the single queue block layer code. This patch unifies ioc priority to request mapping across the single/multi queue block layers. I have tested this patch with the null block device driver with the following parameters. null_blk queue_mode=2 irqmode=0 use_per_node_hctx=1 nr_devices=1 I have not seen a performance regression with this patch and I would appreciate any feedback or additional testing. I have also verified that io priorities are passed to the device when using the SQ and MQ path to a SATA HDD that supports io priorities.

* | blk-throttle: add latency target supportShaohua Li2017-03-281-4/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One hard problem adding .low limit is to detect idle cgroup. If one cgroup doesn't dispatch enough IO against its low limit, we must have a mechanism to determine if other cgroups dispatch more IO. We added the think time detection mechanism before, but it doesn't work for all workloads. Here we add a latency based approach. We already have mechanism to calculate latency threshold for each IO size. For every IO dispatched from a cgorup, we compare its latency against its threshold and record the info. If most IO latency is below threshold (in the code I use 75%), the cgroup could be treated idle and other cgroups can dispatch more IO. Currently this latency target check is only for SSD as we can't calcualte the latency target for hard disk. And this is only for cgroup leaf node so far.

For a SSD, the IO latency highly depends on request size. To calculate latency threshold, we sample some data, eg, average latency for request size 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k .. 1M. The latency threshold of each request size will be the sample latency (I'll call it base latency) plus latency target. For example, the base latency for request size 4k is 80us and user configures latency target 60us. The 4k latency threshold will be 80 + 60 = 140us. To sample data, we calculate the order base 2 of rounded up IO sectors. If the IO size is bigger than 1M, it will be accounted as 1M. Since the calculation does round up, the base latency will be slightly smaller than actual value. Also if there isn't any IO dispatched for a specific IO size, we will use the base latency of smaller IO size for this IO size. But we shouldn't sample data at any time. The base latency is supposed to be latency where disk isn't congested, because we use latency threshold to schedule IOs between cgroups. If disk is congested, the latency is higher, using it for scheduling is meaningless. Hence we only do the sampling when block throttling is in the LOW limit, with assumption disk isn't congested in such state. If the assumption isn't true, eg, low limit is too high, calculated latency threshold will be higher. Hard disk is completely different. Latency depends on spindle seek instead of request size. Currently this feature is SSD only, we probably can use a fixed threshold like 4ms for hard disk though. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

* | blk-throttle: add interface for per-cgroup target latencyShaohua Li2017-03-281-4/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here we introduce per-cgroup latency target. The target determines how a cgroup can afford latency increasement. We will use the target latency to calculate a threshold and use it to schedule IO for cgroups. If a cgroup's bandwidth is below its low limit but its average latency is below the threshold, other cgroups can safely dispatch more IO even their bandwidth is higher than their low limits. On the other hand, if the first cgroup's latency is higher than the threshold, other cgroups are throttled to their low limits. So the target latency determines how we efficiently utilize free disk resource without sacifice of worload's IO latency. For example, assume 4k IO average latency is 50us when disk isn't congested. A cgroup sets the target latency to 30us. Then the cgroup can accept 50+30=80us IO latency. If the cgroupt's average IO latency is 90us and its bandwidth is below low limit, other cgroups are throttled to their low limit. If the cgroup's average IO latency is 60us, other cgroups are allowed to dispatch more IO. When other cgroups dispatch more IO, the first cgroup's IO latency will increase. If it increases to 81us, we then throttle other cgroups. User will configure the interface in this way: echo "8:16 rbps=2097152 wbps=max latency=100 idle=200" > io.low latency is in microsecond unit By default, latency target is 0, which means to guarantee IO latency.

In such case, the queue state machine will remain in LIMIT_LOW state and all other cgroups will be throttled according to low limit. This is unfair for other cgroups. We should treat the cgroup idle and upgrade the state machine to lower state. We also have a downgrade logic. If the state machine upgrades because of cgroup idle (real idle), the state machine will downgrade soon as the cgroup is below its low limit. This isn't what we want. A more complicated case is cgroup isn't idle when queue is in LIMIT_LOW. But when queue gets upgraded to lower state, other cgroups could dispatch more IO and this cgroup can't dispatch enough IO, so the cgroup is below its low limit and looks like idle (fake idle). In this case, the queue should downgrade soon. The key to determine if we should do downgrade is to detect if cgroup is truely idle. Unfortunately it's very hard to determine if a cgroup is real idle. This patch uses the 'think time check' idea from CFQ for the purpose. Please note, the idea doesn't work for all workloads. For example, a workload with io depth 8 has disk utilization 100%, hence think time is 0, eg, not idle. But the workload can run higher bandwidth with io depth 16. Compared to io depth 16, the io depth 8 workload is idle. We use the idea to roughly determine if a cgroup is idle. We treat a cgroup idle if its think time is above a threshold (by default 1ms for SSD and 100ms for HD). The idea is think time above the threshold will start to harm performance. HD is much slower so a longer think time is ok. The patch (and the latter patches) uses 'unsigned long' to track time. We convert 'ns' to 'us' with 'ns >> 10'. This is fast but loses precision, should not a big deal. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
* | blk-throttle: make bandwidth change smoothShaohua Li2017-03-281-3/+54

This could make some cgroups dispatch more IO but others not, and even some cgroups could dispatch less IO than their low limit. For example, cg1 low limit 10MB/s, cg2 limit 80MB/s, assume disk maximum bandwidth is 120M/s for the workload. Their bps could something like this: cg1/cg2 bps: T1: 10/80 -> T2: 60/60 -> T3: 10/80 At T1, all cgroups reach low limit, so they can dispatch more IO later. Then cg1 dispatch more IO and cg2 has no room to dispatch enough IO. At T2, cg2 only dispatches 60M/s. Since We detect cg2 dispatches less IO than its low limit 80M/s, we downgrade the queue from LIMIT_MAX to LIMIT_LOW, then all cgroups are throttled to their low limit (T3). cg2 will have bandwidth below its low limit at most time. The big problem here is we don't know the maximum bandwidth of the workload, so we can't make smart decision to avoid the situation. This patch makes cgroup bandwidth change smooth. After disk upgrades from LIMIT_LOW to LIMIT_MAX, we don't allow cgroups use all bandwidth upto their max limit immediately. Their bandwidth limit will be increased gradually to avoid above situation. So above example will became something like: cg1/cg2 bps: 10/80 -> 15/105 -> 20/100 -> 25/95 -> 30/90 -> 35/85 -> 40/80 -> 45/75 -> 22/98 In this way cgroups bandwidth will be above their limit in majority time, this still doesn't fully utilize disk bandwidth, but that's something we pay for sharing. Scale up is linear. The limit scales up 1/2 .low limit every throtl_slice after upgrade. The scale up will stop if the adjusted limit hits .max limit. Scale down is exponential. We cut the scale value half if a cgroup doesn't hit its .low limit. If the scale becomes 0, we then fully downgrade the queue to LIMIT_LOW state. Note this doesn't completely avoid cgroup running under its low limit. The best way to guarantee cgroup doesn't run under its limit is to set max limit. For example, if we set cg1 max limit to 40, cg2 will never run under its low limit. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cgroup could be assigned a limit, but doesn't dispatch enough IO, eg the cgroup is idle. When this happens, the cgroup doesn't hit its limit, so we can't move the state machine to higher level and all cgroups will be throttled to their lower limit, so we waste bandwidth. Detecting idle cgroup is hard. This patch handles a simple case, a cgroup doesn't dispatch any IO. We ignore such cgroup's limit, so other cgroups can use the bandwidth. Please note this will be replaced with a more sophisticated algorithm later, but this demonstrates the idea how we handle idle cgroups, so I leave it here.
