* blk: optimization for classic pollingNitesh Shetty2018-02-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the dependency on interrupts to wake up task. Set task state as TASK_RUNNING, if need_resched() returns true, while polling for IO completion. Earlier, polling task used to sleep, relying on interrupt to wake it up. This made some IO take very long when interrupt-coalescing is enabled in NVMe. Reference: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-nvme/2018-February/015435.html Changes since v2->v3: -using __set_current_state() instead of set_current_state() Changes since v1->v2: -setting task state once in blk_poll, instead of multiple callers.

* vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacementLinus Torvalds2018-02-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL* variables as described by Al, done by this script: for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done with de-mangling cleanups yet to come. NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al. The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done. Scripted-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* block, bfq: add requeue-request hookPaolo Valente2018-02-071-25/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 'a6a252e64914 ("blk-mq-sched: decide how to handle flush rq via RQF_FLUSH_SEQ")' makes all non-flush re-prepared requests for a device be re-inserted into the active I/O scheduler for that device. As a consequence, I/O schedulers may get the same request inserted again, even several times, without a finish_request invoked on that request before each re-insertion. This fact is the cause of the failure reported in [1]. For an I/O scheduler, every re-insertion of the same re-prepared request is equivalent to the insertion of a new request. For schedulers like mq-deadline or kyber, this fact causes no harm. In contrast, it confuses a stateful scheduler like BFQ, which keeps state for an I/O request, until the finish_request hook is invoked on the request. In particular, BFQ may get stuck, waiting forever for the number of request dispatches, of the same request, to be balanced by an equal number of request completions (while there will be one completion for that request). In this state, BFQ may refuse to serve I/O requests from other bfq_queues. The hang reported in [1] then follows. However, the above re-prepared requests undergo a requeue, thus the requeue_request hook of the active elevator is invoked for these requests, if set. This commit then addresses the above issue by properly implementing the hook requeue_request in BFQ.

* block: Add should_fail_bio() for bpf error injectionHoward McLauchlan2018-02-061-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The classic error injection mechanism, should_fail_request() does not support use cases where more information is required (from the entire struct bio, for example). To that end, this patch introduces should_fail_bio(), which calls should_fail_request() under the hood but provides a convenient place for kprobes to hook into if they require the entire struct bio. This patch also replaces some existing calls to should_fail_request() with should_fail_bio() with no degradation in performance.

* blk-wbt: account flush requests correctlyJens Axboe2018-02-061-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mikulas reported a workload that saw bad performance, and figured out what it was due to various other types of requests being accounted as reads. Flush requests, for instance. Due to the high latency of those, we heavily throttle the writes to keep the latencies in balance. But they really should be accounted as writes. Fix this by checking the exact type of the request. If it's a read, account as a read, if it's a write or a flush, account as a write. Any other request we disregard. Previously everything would have been mistakenly accounted as reads. Reported-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.12+ Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

This turns out to be because we don't check for a data carrying request on the mq scheduler path, and since blk_phys_contig_segment() returns true for a non-data request, we decrement the initial segment count of 0 and end up with 0xffff in the unsigned short. There are a few issues here: 1) We should initialize the segment count for a discard to 1. 2) The discard merging is currently using the data limits for segments and sectors. Fix this up by having attempt_merge() correctly identify the request, and by initializing the segment count correctly for discards. This can only be triggered with mq-deadline on discard capable devices right now, which isn't a common configuration. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
| * blk-mq: introduce BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCEMing Lei2018-01-302-4/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This status is returned from driver to block layer if device related resource is unavailable, but driver can guarantee that IO dispatch will be triggered in future when the resource is available. Convert some drivers to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. Also, if driver returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE and SCHED_RESTART is set, rerun queue after a delay (BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE) to avoid IO stalls. BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE is 3 ms because both scsi-mq and nvmefc are using that magic value. If a driver can make sure there is in-flight IO, it is safe to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE because: 1) If all in-flight IOs complete before examining SCHED_RESTART in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), SCHED_RESTART must be cleared, so queue is run immediately in this case by blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(); 2) if there is any in-flight IO after/when examining SCHED_RESTART in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(): - if SCHED_RESTART isn't set, queue is run immediately as handled in 1) - otherwise, this request will be dispatched after any in-flight IO is completed via blk_mq_sched_restart() 3) if SCHED_RESTART is set concurently in context because of BLK_STS_RESOURCE, blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() will cover the above two cases and make sure IO hang can be avoided. One invariant is that queue will be rerun if SCHED_RESTART is set.

Most of that stuff is as simple as 'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local variables used to hold the future return value'. Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those in this series - it's large enough as it is. Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are arch-independent, but POLL### are not. The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll() work on all architectures. As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered at all on sparc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In mixed read/write workload on SSD, write latency is much lower than read. But now we only track and record read latency and then use it as threshold base for both read and write io latency accounting. As a result, write io latency will always be considered as good and bad_bio_cnt is much smaller than 20% of bio_cnt. That is to mean, the tg to be checked will be treated as idle most of the time and still let others dispatch more ios, even it is truly running under low limit and wants its low limit to be guaranteed, which is not we expected in fact. So track read and write request individually, which can bring more precise latency control for low limit idle detection.

In particular, weight raising has a maximum duration, equal to the time needed to start a large application. If a weight-raised process goes on doing I/O beyond this maximum duration, it loses weight-raising. This mechanism is evidently vulnerable to the following false positives: I/O-bound applications that will go on doing I/O for much longer than the duration of weight-raising. These applications have basically no benefit from being weight-raised at the beginning of their I/O. On the opposite end, while being weight-raised, these applications a) unjustly steal throughput to applications that may truly need low latency; b) make BFQ uselessly perform device idling; device idling results in loss of device throughput with most flash-based storage, and may increase latencies when used purposelessly. This commit adds a countermeasure to reduce both the above problems. To introduce this countermeasure, we provide the following extra piece of information (full details in the comments added by this commit). During the start-up of the large application used as a reference to set the duration of weight-raising, involved processes transfer at most ~110K sectors each. Accordingly, a process initially deemed as interactive has no right to be weight-raised any longer, once transferred 110K sectors or more. Basing on this consideration, this commit early-ends weight-raising for a bfq_queue if the latter happens to have received an amount of service at least equal to 110K sectors (actually, a little bit more, to keep a safety margin). I/O-bound applications that reach a high throughput, such as file copy, get to this threshold much before the allowed weight-raising period finishes. Thus this early ending of weight-raising reduces the amount of time during which these applications cause the problems described above.

Similarly, storms of synchronous writes, such as those that sync(2) may trigger, can starve synchronous reads. In their turn, these two problems may also cause BFQ to loose control on latency for interactive and soft real-time applications. For example, on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5S SSD, LibreOffice Writer takes 0.6 seconds to start if the device is idle, but it takes more than 45 seconds (!) if there are sequential writes in the background. This commit addresses this issue by limiting the maximum percentage of tags that asynchronous I/O requests and synchronous write requests can consume. In particular, this commit grants a higher threshold to synchronous writes, to prevent the latter from being starved by asynchronous I/O. According to the above test, LibreOffice Writer now starts in about 1.2 seconds on average, regardless of the background workload, and apart from some rare outlier. To check this improvement, run, e.g., sudo ./comm_startup_lat.sh bfq 5 5 seq 10 "lowriter --terminate_after_init" for the comm_startup_lat benchmark in the S suite [1].

But dm-rq currently can't get the underlying queue's dispatch feedback at all. Without knowing whether a request was issued or not (e.g. due to underlying queue being busy) the dm-rq elevator will not be able to provide effective IO merging (as a side-effect of dm-rq currently blindly destaging a request from its elevator only to requeue it after a delay, which kills any opportunity for merging). This obviously causes very bad sequential IO performance. Fix this by updating blk_insert_cloned_request() to use blk_mq_request_direct_issue(). blk_mq_request_direct_issue() allows a request to be issued directly to the underlying queue and returns the dispatch feedback (blk_status_t). If blk_mq_request_direct_issue() returns BLK_SYS_RESOURCE the dm-rq driver will now use DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE to _not_ destage the request. Whereby preserving the opportunity to merge IO. With this, request-based DM's blk-mq sequential IO performance is vastly improved (as much as 3X in mpath/virtio-scsi testing).

The race can be triggered in the following two sitations: 1) when one CPU is becoming DEAD, blk_mq_hctx_notify_dead() is called to dispatch requests from the DEAD cpu context, but at that time, this DEAD CPU has been cleared from 'cpu_online_mask', so all CPUs in hctx->cpumask may become offline, and cause hctx->next_cpu set a bad value. 2) blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() is called from CPU B, and found the queue should be run on the other CPU A, then CPU A may become offline at the same time and all CPUs in hctx->cpumask become offline. This patch deals with this issue by re-selecting next CPU, and making sure it is set correctly.

Reason for this is block/genhd.c:add_disk() has requires that the request_queue (and associated bdi) be tied to the gendisk before add_disk() is called -- because add_disk() also deals with exposing the request_queue via blk_register_queue(). DM's dynamic creation of arbitrary device types (and associated request_queue types) requires the DM device's gendisk be available so that DM table loads can establish a master/slave relationship with subordinate devices that are referenced by loaded DM tables -- using bd_link_disk_holder(). But until these DM tables, and their associated subordinate devices, are known DM cannot know what type of request_queue it needs -- nor what its queue_limits should be. This chicken and egg scenario has created all manner of problems for DM and, at times, the block layer. Summary of changes: - Add device_add_disk_no_queue_reg() and add_disk_no_queue_reg() variant that drivers may use to add a disk without also calling blk_register_queue(). Driver must call blk_register_queue() once its request_queue is fully initialized. - Return early from blk_unregister_queue() if QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED is not set. It won't be set if driver used add_disk_no_queue_reg() but driver encounters an error and must del_gendisk() before calling blk_register_queue(). - Export blk_register_queue(). These changes allow DM to use add_disk_no_queue_reg() to anchor its gendisk as the "master" for master/slave relationships DM must establish with subordinate devices referenced in DM tables that get loaded. Once all "slave" devices for a DM device are known its request_queue can be properly initialized and then advertised via sysfs -- important improvement being that no request_queue resource initialization performed by blk_register_queue() is missed for DM devices anymore.

Expand the scope of blk_unregister_queue()'s q->sysfs_lock use so it is held until after the 'queue' kobj is removed. To do so blk_mq_unregister_dev() must not also take q->sysfs_lock. So rename __blk_mq_unregister_dev() to blk_mq_unregister_dev(). Also, blk_unregister_queue() should use q->queue_lock to protect against any concurrent writes to q->queue_flags -- even though chances are the queue is being cleaned up so no concurrent writes are likely.

| * | block: convert REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE to stealing rq->__deadline bitJens Axboe2018-01-104-20/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We only have one atomic flag left. Instead of using an entire unsigned long for that, steal the bottom bit of the deadline field that we already reserved. Remove ->atomic_flags, since it's now unused.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We reduce the resolution of request expiry, but since we're already using jiffies for this where resolution depends on the kernel configuration and since the timeout resolution is coarse anyway, that should be fine.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We don't need this to be an atomic flag, it can be a regular flag. We either end up on the same CPU for the polling, in which case the state is sane, or we did the sleep which would imply the needed barrier to ensure we see the right state.
