This is because in should_writeback(), we were hitting a case where the partial stripe condition was returning true and so should_writeback() was returning true early. If that hadn't been the case, it would have hit the would_skip test, and as would_skip == s->iop.bypass == true, should_writeback() would have returned false. Looking at the git history from 'commit 72c270612bd3 ("bcache: Write out full stripes")', it looks like the idea was to optimise for raid5/6: * If a stripe is already dirty, force writes to that stripe to writeback mode - to help build up full stripes of dirty data To fix this issue, make sure that should_writeback() on a discard op never returns true.

* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

* bcache: initialize dirty stripes in flash_dev_run()Tang Junhui2017-09-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bcache uses a Proportion-Differentiation Controller algorithm to control writeback rate to cached devices. In the PD controller algorithm, dirty stripes of thin flash device should not be counted in, because flash only volumes never write back dirty data. Currently dirty stripe counter for thin flash device is not initialized when the thin flash device starts. Which means the following calculation in PD controller will reference an undefined dirty stripes number, and all cached devices attached to the same cache set where the thin flash device lies on may have an inaccurate writeback rate. This patch calles bch_sectors_dirty_init() in flash_dev_run(), to correctly initialize dirty stripe counter when the thin flash device starts to run. This patch also does following parameter data type change, -void bch_sectors_dirty_init(struct cached_dev *dc); +void bch_sectors_dirty_init(struct bcache_device *); to call this function conveniently in flash_dev_run().

* bcache: correct cache_dirty_target in __update_writeback_rate()Tang Junhui2017-09-061-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __update_write_rate() uses a Proportion-Differentiation Controller algorithm to control writeback rate. A dirty target number is used in this PD controller to control writeback rate. A larger target number will make the writeback rate smaller, on the versus, a smaller target number will make the writeback rate larger. bcache uses the following steps to calculate the target number, 1) cache_sectors = all-buckets-of-cache-set * buckets-size 2) cache_dirty_target = cache_sectors * cached-device-writeback_percent 3) target = cache_dirty_target * (sectors-of-cached-device/sectors-of-all-cached-devices-of-this-cache-set) The calculation at step 1) for cache_sectors is incorrect, which does not consider dirty blocks occupied by flash only volume. A flash only volume can be took as a bcache device without cached device. All data sectors allocated for it are persistent on cache device and marked dirty, they are not touched by bcache writeback and garbage collection code. So data blocks of flash only volume should be ignore when calculating cache_sectors of cache set. Current code does not subtract dirty sectors of flash only volume, which results a larger target number from the above 3 steps. And in sequence the cache device's writeback rate is smaller then a correct value, writeback speed is slower on all cached devices. This patch fixes the incorrect slower writeback rate by subtracting dirty sectors of flash only volumes in __update_writeback_rate().

| | | | | | | | Originally I got this right... except that the divides didn't use do_div(), which broke 32 bit kernels. When I went to fix that, I forgot that the raid stripe size usually isn't a power of two... doh Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <kmo@daterainc.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we're tracking dirty data per stripe, we can add two optimizations for raid5/6: * If a stripe is already dirty, force writes to that stripe to writeback mode - to help build up full stripes of dirty data * When flushing dirty data, preferentially write out full stripes first if there are any.

To make background writeback aware of raid5/6 stripes, we first need to track the amount of dirty data within each stripe - we do this by breaking up the existing sectors_dirty into per stripe atomic_ts Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
