* blk-throttle: Make dispatch stats per cpuVivek Goyal2011-05-201-6/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we take blkg_stat lock for even updating the stats. So even if a group has no throttling rules (common case for root group), we end up taking blkg_lock, for updating the stats. Make dispatch stats per cpu so that these can be updated without taking blkg lock. If cpu goes offline, these stats simply disappear. No protection has been provided for that yet. Do we really need anything for that? Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

* blk-throttle: Use task_subsys_state() to determine a task's blkio_cgroupVivek Goyal2011-05-161-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currentlly we first map the task to cgroup and then cgroup to blkio_cgroup. There is a more direct way to get to blkio_cgroup from task using task_subsys_state(). Use that. The real reason for the fix is that it also avoids a race in generic cgroup code. During remount/umount rebind_subsystems() is called and it can do following with and rcu protection. cgrp->subsys[i] = NULL; That means if somebody got hold of cgroup under rcu and then it tried to do cgroup->subsys[] to get to blkio_cgroup, it would get NULL which is wrong. I was running into this race condition with ltp running on a upstream derived kernel and that lead to crash. So ideally we should also fix cgroup generic code to wait for rcu grace period before setting pointer to NULL. Li Zefan is not very keen on introducing synchronize_wait() as he thinks it will slow down moun/remount/umount operations. So for the time being atleast fix the kernel crash by taking a more direct route to blkio_cgroup. One tester had reported a crash while running LTP on a derived kernel and with this fix crash is no more seen while the test has been running for over 6 days.

* blk-cgroup: Add unaccounted time to timeslice_used.Justin TerAvest2011-03-121-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | There are two kind of times that tasks are not charged for: the first seek and the extra time slice used over the allocated timeslice. Both of these exported as a new unaccounted_time stat. I think it would be good to have this reported in 'time' as well, but that is probably a separate discussion.

* blkio: Recalculate the throttled bio dispatch time upon throttle limit changeVivek Goyal2010-10-011-10/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Currently any cgroup throttle limit changes are processed asynchronousy and the change does not take affect till a new bio is dispatched from same group. o It might happen that a user sets a redicuously low limit on throttling. Say 1 bytes per second on reads. In such cases simple operations like mount a disk can wait for a very long time. o Once bio is throttled, there is no easy way to come out of that wait even if user increases the read limit later. o This patch fixes it. Now if a user changes the cgroup limits, we recalculate the bio dispatch time according to new limits. o Can't take queueu lock under blkcg_lock, hence after the change I wake up the dispatch thread again which recalculates the time. So there are some variables being synchronized across two threads without lock and I had to make use of barriers. Hoping I have used barriers correctly. Any review of memory barrier code especially will help. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

* blk-cgroup: config options re-arrangementVivek Goyal2010-04-261-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes few usability and configurability issues. o All the cgroup based controller options are configurable from "Genral Setup/Control Group Support/" menu. blkio is the only exception. Hence make this option visible in above menu and make it configurable from there to bring it inline with rest of the cgroup based controllers. o Get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED. This option currently does two things. - Enable printing of cgroup paths in blktrace - Enables CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP, which in turn displays additional stat files in cgroup. If we are using group scheduling, blktrace data is of not really much use if cgroup information is not present. To get this data, currently one has to also enable CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED, which in turn brings the overhead of all the additional debug stat files which is not desired. Hence, this patch moves printing of cgroup paths under CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED. This allows us to get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED completely. Now all the debug stat files are controlled only by CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP which can be enabled through config menu.

* blkio: Fix another BUG_ON() crash due to cfqq movement across groupsVivek Goyal2010-04-261-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Once in a while, I was hitting a BUG_ON() in blkio code. empty_time was assuming that upon slice expiry, group can't be marked empty already (except forced dispatch). But this assumption is broken if cfqq can move (group_isolation=0) across groups after receiving a request. I think most likely in this case we got a request in a cfqq and accounted the rq in one group, later while adding the cfqq to tree, we moved the queue to a different group which was already marked empty and after dispatch from slice we found group already marked empty and raised alarm. This patch does not error out if group is already marked empty. This can introduce some empty_time stat error only in case of group_isolation=0. This is better than crashing. In case of group_isolation=1 we should still get same stats as before this patch. [ 222.308546] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 222.309311] kernel BUG at block/blk-cgroup.c:236!

* io-controller: Add a new interface "weight_device" for IO-ControllerGui Jianfeng2010-04-131-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, IO Controller makes use of blkio.weight to assign weight for all devices. Here a new user interface "blkio.weight_device" is introduced to assign different weights for different devices. blkio.weight becomes the default value for devices which are not configured by "blkio.weight_device" You can use the following format to assigned specific weight for a given device: #echo "major:minor weight" > blkio.weight_device major:minor represents device number. And you can remove weight for a given device as following: #echo "major:minor 0" > blkio.weight_device V1->V2 changes: - use user interface "weight_device" instead of "policy" suggested by Vivek - rename some struct suggested by Vivek - rebase to 2.6-block "for-linus" branch - remove an useless list_empty check pointed out by Li Zefan - some trivial typo fix V2->V3 changes: - Move policy_*_node() functions up to get rid of forward declarations - rename related functions by adding prefix "blkio_" Signed-off-by: Gui Jianfeng <guijianfeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* blkio: Add more debug-only per-cgroup statsDivyesh Shah2010-04-091-0/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) group_wait_time - This is the amount of time the cgroup had to wait to get a timeslice for one of its queues from when it became busy, i.e., went from 0 to 1 request queued. This is different from the io_wait_time which is the cumulative total of the amount of time spent by each IO in that cgroup waiting in the scheduler queue. This stat is a great way to find out any jobs in the fleet that are being starved or waiting for longer than what is expected (due to an IO controller bug or any other issue). 2) empty_time - This is the amount of time a cgroup spends w/o any pending requests. This stat is useful when a job does not seem to be able to use its assigned disk share by helping check if that is happening due to an IO controller bug or because the job is not submitting enough IOs. 3) idle_time - This is the amount of time spent by the IO scheduler idling for a given cgroup in anticipation of a better request than the exising ones from other queues/cgroups. All these stats are recorded using start and stop events. When reading these stats, we do not add the delta between the current time and the last start time if we're between the start and stop events. We avoid doing this to make sure that these numbers are always monotonically increasing when read. Since we're using sched_clock() which may use the tsc as its source, it may induce some inconsistency (due to tsc resync across cpus) if we included the current delta.

This stat helps a lot in debugging such problems when applications report decreased throughput with a new kernel version. This needed adding an extra elevator function to capture bios being merged as I did not want to pollute elevator code with blkiocg knowledge and hence needed the accounting invocation to come from CFQ.

* blkio: Implement dynamic io controlling policy registrationVivek Goyal2009-12-041-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o One of the goals of block IO controller is that it should be able to support mulitple io control policies, some of which be operational at higher level in storage hierarchy. o To begin with, we had one io controlling policy implemented by CFQ, and I hard coded the CFQ functions called by blkio. This created issues when CFQ is compiled as module. o This patch implements a basic dynamic io controlling policy registration functionality in blkio. This is similar to elevator functionality where ioschedulers register the functions dynamically. o Now in future, when more IO controlling policies are implemented, these can dynakically register with block IO controller.

* blkio: Export some symbols from blkio as its user CFQ can be a moduleVivek Goyal2009-12-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | o blkio controller is inside the kernel and cfq makes use of interfaces exported by blkio. CFQ can be a module too, hence export symbols used by CFQ. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
