* dm ioctl: introduce flag indicating uevent was generatedPeter Rajnoha2010-03-061-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | Set a new DM_UEVENT_GENERATED_FLAG when returning from ioctls to indicate that a uevent was actually generated. This tells the userspace caller that it may need to wait for the event to be processed. Signed-off-by: Peter Rajnoha <prajnoha@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
* dm: free dm_io before bio_endio not afterMikulas Patocka2010-03-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Free the dm_io structure before calling bio_endio() instead of after it, to ensure that the io_pool containing it is not referenced after it is freed. This partially fixes a problem described here https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2010-February/msg00109.html thread 1: bio_endio(bio, io_error); /* scheduling happens */ thread 2: close the device remove the device thread 1: free_io(md, io); Thread 2, when removing the device, sees non-empty md->io_pool (because the io hasn't been freed by thread 1 yet) and may crash with BUG in mempool_free. Thread 1 may also crash, when freeing into a nonexisting mempool. To fix this we must make sure that bio_endio() is the last call and the md structure is not accessed afterwards. There is another bio_endio in process_barrier, but it is called from the thread and the thread is destroyed prior to freeing the mempools, so this call is not affected by the bug. A similar bug exists with module unloads - the module may be unloaded immediately after bio_endio - but that is more difficult to fix.

* dm table: remove dm_get from dm_table_get_mdKiyoshi Ueda2010-03-061-12/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the dm_get() in dm_table_get_md() because dm_table_get_md() could be called from presuspend/postsuspend, which are called while mapped_device is in DMF_FREEING state, where dm_get() is not allowed. Justification for that is the lifetime of both objects: As far as the current dm design/implementation, mapped_device is never freed while targets are doing something, because dm core waits for targets to become quiet in dm_put() using presuspend/postsuspend. So targets should be able to touch mapped_device without holding reference count of the mapped_device, and we should allow targets to touch mapped_device even if it is in DMF_FREEING state. Backgrounds: I'm trying to remove the multipath internal queue, since dm core now has a generic queue for request-based dm. In the patch-set, the multipath target wants to request dm core to start/stop queue. One of such start/stop requests can happen during postsuspend() while the target waits for pg-init to complete, because the target stops queue when starting pg-init and tries to restart it when completing pg-init. Since queue belongs to mapped_device, it involves calling dm_table_get_md() and dm_put(). On the other hand, postsuspend() is called in dm_put() for mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, and that triggers BUG_ON(DMF_FREEING) in the 2nd dm_put(). I had tried to solve this problem by changing only multipath not to touch mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, but I couldn't and I came up with a question why we need dm_get() in dm_table_get_md().

* dm mpath: fix stall when requeueing ioKiyoshi Ueda2010-02-161-4/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes the problem that system may stall if target's ->map_rq returns DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE in map_request(). E.g. stall happens on 1 CPU box when a dm-mpath device with queue_if_no_path bounces between all-paths-down and paths-up on I/O load. When target's ->map_rq returns DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE, map_request() requeues the request and returns to dm_request_fn(). Then, dm_request_fn() doesn't exit the I/O dispatching loop and continues processing the requeued request again. This map and requeue loop can be done with interrupt disabled, so 1 CPU system can be stalled if this situation happens. For example, commands below can stall my 1 CPU box within 1 minute or so: # dmsetup table mp mp: 0 2097152 multipath 1 queue_if_no_path 0 1 1 service-time 0 1 2 8:144 1 1 # while true; do dd if=/dev/mapper/mp of=/dev/null bs=1M count=100; done & # while true; do \ > dmsetup message mp 0 "fail_path 8:144" \ > dmsetup suspend --noflush mp \ > dmsetup resume mp \ > dmsetup message mp 0 "reinstate_path 8:144" \ > done To fix the problem above, this patch changes dm_request_fn() to exit the I/O dispatching loop once if a request is requeued in map_request().

| | | | | | | | | | | | When swapping a new table into place, retain the old table until its replacement is in place.

* dm: bind new table before destroying oldAlasdair G Kergon2009-12-101-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When replacing a mapped device's table during a 'resume', delay the destruction of the old table until the new one is successfully in place. This will make it easier for a later patch to transfer internal state information from the old table to the new one (something we do not currently support) while giving us more options for reversion if a later part of the operation fails. Devices are always in the suspended state during dm_swap_table(). This patch reinforces the requirement that all I/O must have been flushed from the table targets while in this state (including any in workqueues). In the case of 'noflush' suspending, unprocessed I/O should have been 'pushed back' to the dm core prior to this point, for resubmission after the new table is in place.

* dm: add request based barrier supportKiyoshi Ueda2009-12-101-18/+196
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds barrier support for request-based dm. CORE DESIGN The design is basically same as bio-based dm, which emulates barrier by mapping empty barrier bios before/after a barrier I/O. But request-based dm has been using struct request_queue for I/O queueing, so the block-layer's barrier mechanism can be used. o Summary of the block-layer's behavior (which is depended by dm-core) Request-based dm uses QUEUE_ORDERED_DRAIN_FLUSH ordered mode for I/O barrier. It means that when an I/O requiring barrier is found in the request_queue, the block-layer makes pre-flush request and post-flush request just before and just after the I/O respectively. After the ordered sequence starts, the block-layer waits for all in-flight I/Os to complete, then gives drivers the pre-flush request, the barrier I/O and the post-flush request one by one. It means that the request_queue is stopped automatically by the block-layer until drivers complete each sequence. o dm-core For the barrier I/O, treats it as a normal I/O, so no additional code is needed. For the pre/post-flush request, flushes caches by the followings: 1. Make the number of empty barrier requests required by target's num_flush_requests, and map them (dm_rq_barrier()). 2. Waits for the mapped barriers to complete (dm_rq_barrier()). If error has occurred, save the error value to md->barrier_error (dm_end_request()). (*) Basically, the first reported error is taken. But -EOPNOTSUPP supersedes any error and DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE follows. 3. Requeue the pre/post-flush request if the error value is DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE. Otherwise, completes with the error value (dm_rq_barrier_work()). The pre/post-flush work above is done in the kernel thread (kdmflush) context, since memory allocation which might sleep is needed in dm_rq_barrier() but sleep is not allowed in dm_request_fn(), which is an irq-disabled context. Also, clones of the pre/post-flush request share an original, so such clones can't be completed using the softirq context. Instead, complete them in the context of underlying device drivers. It should be safe since there is no I/O dispatching during the completion of such clones. For suspend, the workqueue of kdmflush needs to be flushed after the request_queue has been stopped. Otherwise, the next flush work can be kicked even after the suspend completes. TARGET INTERFACE No new interface is added. Just use the existing num_flush_requests in struct target_type as same as bio-based dm.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch factors out the clone completion code, dm_done(), from dm_softirq_done() in preparation for a subsequent patch. No functional change. dm_done() will be used in barrier completion, which can't use and doesn't need softirq. The softirq_done callback needs to get a clone from an original request but it can't in the case of barrier, where an original request is shared by multiple clones. On the other hand, the completion of barrier clones doesn't involve re-submitting requests, which was the primary reason of the need for softirq.

However, it this no longer true for barrier requests. So use md->pending to count the number of in-flight clones.

* dm: simplify request based suspendKiyoshi Ueda2009-12-101-144/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The semantics of bio-based dm were changed recently in the case of suspend with "--nolockfs" but without "--noflush". Before 2.6.30, I/Os submitted before the suspend invocation were always flushed. From 2.6.30 onwards, I/Os submitted before the suspend invocation might not be flushed. (For details, see http://marc.info/?t=123994433400003&r=1&w=2) This patch brings the behaviour of request-based dm into line with bio-based dm, simplifying the code and preparing for a subsequent patch that will wait for all in_flight I/Os to complete without stopping request_queue and use dm_wait_for_completion() for it. This change in semantics simplifies the suspend code as follows: o Suspend is implemented as stopping request_queue in request-based dm, and all I/Os are queued in the request_queue even after suspend is invoked. o In the old semantics, we had to track whether I/Os were queued before or after the suspend invocation, so a special barrier-like request called 'suspend marker' was introduced. o With the new semantics, we don't need to flush any I/O so we can remove the marker and the code related to the marker handling and I/O flushing. After removing this codes, the suspend sequence is now: 1. Flush all I/Os by lock_fs() if needed. 2. Stop dispatching any I/O by stopping the request_queue. 3. Wait for all in-flight I/Os to be completed or requeued.

Global values for service time and utilization were garbage. For interval values, utilization was always 100%, and service time is higher than normal. So this was reverted by commit 0f78ab9899e9d6acb09d5465def618704255963b The problem was in part_round_stats_single(), I missed the following: if (now == part->stamp) return; - if (part->in_flight) { + if (part_in_flight(part)) { __part_stat_add(cpu, part, time_in_queue, part_in_flight(part) * (now - part->stamp)); __part_stat_add(cpu, part, io_ticks, (now - part->stamp)); With this chunk included, the reported regression gets fixed.

If map_request() calls dm_kill_unmapped_request() to complete a cloned bio without dispatching it, clone->bio is still set when dm_end_request() is called and the BUG_ON(clone->bio) is incorrect. The patch fixes this bug by freeing bio in dm_end_request() if the clone has bio. I've redone my tests to cover all I/O paths and confirmed there's no other regression.

* dm: remove queue next_ordered workaround for barriersMike Snitzer2009-07-231-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes DM's bio-based vs request-based conditional setting of next_ordered. For bio-based DM the next_ordered check is no longer a concern (as that check is now in the __make_request path). For request-based DM the default of QUEUE_ORDERED_NONE is now appropriate. bio-based DM was changed to work-around the previously misplaced next_ordered check with this commit: 99360b4c18f7675b50d283301d46d755affe75fd request-based DM does not yet support barriers but reacted to the above bio-based DM change with this commit: 5d67aa2366ccb8257d103d0b43df855605c3c086 The above changes are no longer needed given Neil Brown's recent fix to put the next_ordered check in the __make_request path: db64f680ba4b5c56c4be59f0698000df89ff0281 Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: Jun'ichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> Cc: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Acked-by: Kiyoshi Ueda <k-ueda@ct.jp.nec.com> Acked-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

* dm: enable request based optionKiyoshi Ueda2009-06-221-26/+136
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables request-based dm. o Request-based dm and bio-based dm coexist, since there are some target drivers which are more fitting to bio-based dm. Also, there are other bio-based devices in the kernel (e.g. md, loop). Since bio-based device can't receive struct request, there are some limitations on device stacking between bio-based and request-based. type of underlying device bio-based request-based ---------------------------------------------- bio-based OK OK request-based -- OK The device type is recognized by the queue flag in the kernel, so dm follows that. o The type of a dm device is decided at the first table binding time. Once the type of a dm device is decided, the type can't be changed. o Mempool allocations are deferred to at the table loading time, since mempools for request-based dm are different from those for bio-based dm and needed mempool type is fixed by the type of table. o Currently, request-based dm supports only tables that have a single target. To support multiple targets, we need to support request splitting or prevent bio/request from spanning multiple targets. The former needs lots of changes in the block layer, and the latter needs that all target drivers support merge() function. Both will take a time.

* dm: prepare for request based optionKiyoshi Ueda2009-06-221-4/+701
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds core functions for request-based dm. When struct mapped device (md) is initialized, md->queue has an I/O scheduler and the following functions are used for request-based dm as the queue functions: make_request_fn: dm_make_request() pref_fn: dm_prep_fn() request_fn: dm_request_fn() softirq_done_fn: dm_softirq_done() lld_busy_fn: dm_lld_busy() Actual initializations are done in another patch (PATCH 2). Below is a brief summary of how request-based dm behaves, including: - making request from bio - cloning, mapping and dispatching request - completing request and bio - suspending md - resuming md bio to request ============== md->queue->make_request_fn() (dm_make_request()) calls __make_request() for a bio submitted to the md. Then, the bio is kept in the queue as a new request or merged into another request in the queue if possible. Cloning and Mapping =================== Cloning and mapping are done in md->queue->request_fn() (dm_request_fn()), when requests are dispatched after they are sorted by the I/O scheduler. dm_request_fn() checks busy state of underlying devices using target's busy() function and stops dispatching requests to keep them on the dm device's queue if busy. It helps better I/O merging, since no merge is done for a request once it is dispatched to underlying devices. Actual cloning and mapping are done in dm_prep_fn() and map_request() called from dm_request_fn(). dm_prep_fn() clones not only request but also bios of the request so that dm can hold bio completion in error cases and prevent the bio submitter from noticing the error. (See the "Completion" section below for details.) After the cloning, the clone is mapped by target's map_rq() function and inserted to underlying device's queue using blk_insert_cloned_request(). Completion ========== Request completion can be hooked by rq->end_io(), but then, all bios in the request will have been completed even error cases, and the bio submitter will have noticed the error. To prevent the bio completion in error cases, request-based dm clones both bio and request and hooks both bio->bi_end_io() and rq->end_io(): bio->bi_end_io(): end_clone_bio() rq->end_io(): end_clone_request() Summary of the request completion flow is below: blk_end_request() for a clone request => blk_update_request() => bio->bi_end_io() == end_clone_bio() for each clone bio => Free the clone bio => Success: Complete the original bio (blk_update_request()) Error: Don't complete the original bio => blk_finish_request() => rq->end_io() == end_clone_request() => blk_complete_request() => dm_softirq_done() => Free the clone request => Success: Complete the original request (blk_end_request()) Error: Requeue the original request end_clone_bio() completes the original request on the size of the original bio in successful cases. Even if all bios in the original request are completed by that completion, the original request must not be completed yet to keep the ordering of request completion for the stacking. So end_clone_bio() uses blk_update_request() instead of blk_end_request(). In error cases, end_clone_bio() doesn't complete the original bio. It just frees the cloned bio and gives over the error handling to end_clone_request(). end_clone_request(), which is called with queue lock held, completes the clone request and the original request in a softirq context (dm_softirq_done()), which has no queue lock, to avoid a deadlock issue on submission of another request during the completion: - The submitted request may be mapped to the same device - Request submission requires queue lock, but the queue lock has been held by itself and it doesn't know that The clone request has no clone bio when dm_softirq_done() is called. So target drivers can't resubmit it again even error cases. Instead, they can ask dm core for requeueing and remapping the original request in that cases. suspend ======= Request-based dm uses stopping md->queue as suspend of the md. For noflush suspend, just stops md->queue. For flush suspend, inserts a marker request to the tail of md->queue. And dispatches all requests in md->queue until the marker comes to the front of md->queue. Then, stops dispatching request and waits for the all dispatched requests to complete. After that, completes the marker request, stops md->queue and wake up the waiter on the suspend queue, md->wait. resume ====== Starts md->queue.

* dm: calculate queue limits during resume not loadMike Snitzer2009-06-221-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, device-mapper maintains a separate instance of 'struct queue_limits' for each table of each device. When the configuration of a device is to be changed, first its table is loaded and this structure is populated, then the device is 'resumed' and the calculated queue_limits are applied. This places restrictions on how userspace may process related devices, where it is often advantageous to 'load' tables for several devices at once before 'resuming' them together. As the new queue_limits only take effect after the 'resume', if they are changing and one device uses another, the latter must be 'resumed' before the former may be 'loaded'. This patch moves the calculation of these queue_limits out of the 'load' operation into 'resume'. Since we are no longer pre-calculating this struct, we no longer need to maintain copies within our dm structs. dm_set_device_limits() now passes the 'start' of the device's data area (aka pe_start) as the 'offset' to blk_stack_limits(). init_valid_queue_limits() is replaced by blk_set_default_limits().

* dm ioctl: support cookies for udevMilan Broz2009-06-221-6/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for passing a 32 bit "cookie" into the kernel with the DM_SUSPEND, DM_DEV_RENAME and DM_DEV_REMOVE ioctls. The (unsigned) value of this cookie is returned to userspace alongside the uevents issued by these ioctls in the variable DM_COOKIE. This means the userspace process issuing these ioctls can be notified by udev after udev has completed any actions triggered. To minimise the interface extension, we pass the cookie into the kernel in the event_nr field which is otherwise unused when calling these ioctls. Incrementing the version number allows userspace to determine in advance whether or not the kernel supports the cookie. If the kernel does support this but userspace does not, there should be no impact as the new variable will just get ignored.

However there could be other devices already suspended, for example when creating additional snapshots of a device. bdget_disk() can wait for IO and allocate memory resulting in waiting for the already-suspended device - deadlock. This patch changes the code so that it gets the reference to struct block_device when struct mapped_device is allocated and initialized in alloc_dev() where it is always OK to allocate memory or wait for I/O. It drops the reference when it is destroyed in free_dev(). Thus there is no call to bdget_disk() while any device is suspended. Previously unlock_fs() was called only if bdev was held. Now it is called unconditionally, but the superfluous calls are harmless because it returns immediately if the filesystem was not previously frozen. This patch also now allows the device size to be changed in a noflush suspend because the bdev is held. This has no adverse effect.

* dm: rename suspended_bdev to bdevMikulas Patocka2009-06-221-18/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | Rename suspended_bdev to bdev. This patch doesn't change any functionality, just renames the variable. In the next patch, the variable will be used even for non-suspended device. (Pre-requisite for the per-target barrier support patches.)

* dm: avoid unsupported spanning of md stripe boundariesMikulas Patocka2009-06-221-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A bio that has two or more vector entries, size less than or equal to page size, that crosses a stripe boundary of an underlying md device is accepted by device mapper (it conforms to all its limits) but not by the underlying device. The fix is: If device mapper selects the one-page maximum request size, it also needs to set its own q->merge_bvec_fn to reject any bios with multiple vector entries that span more pages. The problem was discovered in the following scenario: * MD - RAID-0 * LV on the top of it (raid1, snapshot or striped with chunk size/stripe larger than RAID-0 stripe) * one of the logical volumes is exported to xen domU * inside xen domU it is partitioned, the key point is that the partition must be unaligned on page boundary (fdisk normally aligns the partition to 63 sectors which will trigger it) * install the system on the partitioned disk in domU This causes I/O failures in dom0.

* dm: sysfs skip output when device is being destroyedMilan Broz2009-06-221-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Do not process sysfs attributes when device is being destroyed. Otherwise code can cause BUG_ON(test_bit(DMF_FREEING, &md->flags)); in dm_put() call. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
