2020-07-29nvme: export nvme_find_get_ns() and nvme_put_ns()Logan Gunthorpe
nvme_find_get_ns() and nvme_put_ns() are required by the target passthru code and are exported under the NVME_TARGET_PASSTHRU namespace.

2020-07-29nvme: introduce nvme_ctrl_get_by_path()Logan Gunthorpe
nvme_ctrl_get_by_path() is analogous to blkdev_get_by_path() except it gets a struct nvme_ctrl from the path to its char dev (/dev/nvme0). It makes use of filp_open() to open the file and uses the private data to obtain a pointer to the struct nvme_ctrl. If the fops of the file do not match, -EINVAL is returned. The purpose of this function is to support NVMe-OF target passthru and is exported under the NVME_TARGET_PASSTHRU namespace.

2020-07-29nvme: fix deadlock in disconnect during scan_work and/or ana_workSagi Grimberg
A deadlock happens in the following scenario with multipath: 1) scan_work(nvme0) detects a new nsid while nvme0 is an optimized path to it, path nvme1 happens to be inaccessible. 2) Before scan_work is complete nvme0 disconnect is initiated nvme_delete_ctrl_sync() sets nvme0 state to NVME_CTRL_DELETING 3) scan_work(1) attempts to submit IO, but nvme_path_is_optimized() observes nvme0 is not LIVE.

Also we prevent ana_work from re-firing by aborting early if we are not LIVE, so we should be safe here. In addition, change the transport drivers to follow the updated state machine.

2020-07-29nvme-pci: add support for ACPI StorageD3Enable propertyDavid E. Box
This patch implements a solution for a BIOS hack used on some currently shipping Intel systems to change driver power management policy for PCIe NVMe drives. Some newer Intel platforms, like some Comet Lake systems, require that PCIe devices use D3 when doing suspend-to-idle in order to allow the platform to realize maximum power savings. This is particularly needed to support ATX power supply shutdown on desktop systems. In order to ensure this happens for root ports with storage devices, Microsoft apparently created this ACPI _DSD property as a way to influence their driver policy. To my knowledge this property has not been discussed with the NVME specification body. Though the solution is not ideal, it addresses a problem that also affects Linux since the NVMe driver's default policy of using NVMe APST during suspend-to-idle prevents the PCI root port from going to D3 and leads to higher power consumption for these platforms. The power consumption difference may be negligible on laptop systems, but many watts on desktop systems when the ATX power supply is blocked from powering down. The patch creates a new nvme_acpi_storage_d3 function to check for the StorageD3Enable property during probe and enables D3 as a quirk if set. It also provides a 'noacpi' module parameter to allow skipping the quirk if needed.

Commit 85750aeb748f ("bcache: use bio_{start,end}_io_acct") moves the io account code to the location after bio_set_dev(bio, dc->bdev) in cached_dev_make_request(). Then the account is performed incorrectly on backing device, indeed the I/O should be counted to bcache device like /dev/bcache0. With the mistaken I/O account, iostat does not display I/O counts for bcache device and all the numbers go to backing device. In writeback mode, the hard drive may have 340K+ IOPS which is impossible and wrong for spinning disk. This patch introduces bch_bio_start_io_acct() and bch_bio_end_io_acct(), which switches bio->bi_disk to bcache device before calling bio_start_io_acct() or bio_end_io_acct(). Now the I/Os are counted to bcache device, and bcache device, cache device and backing device have their correct I/O count information back.

2020-07-25bcache: avoid extra memory consumption in struct bbio for large bucket sizeColy Li
Bcache uses struct bbio to do I/Os for meta data pages like uuids, disk_buckets, prio_buckets, and btree nodes. Example writing a btree node onto cache device, the process is, - Allocate a struct bbio from mempool c->bio_meta. - Inside struct bbio embedded a struct bio, initialize bi_inline_vecs for this embedded bio. - Call bch_bio_map() to map each meta data page to each bv from the inlined bi_io_vec table. - Call bch_submit_bbio() to submit the bio into underlying block layer. - When the I/O completed, only release the struct bbio, don't touch the reference counter of the meta data pages. The struct bbio is defined as, 738 struct bbio { 739 unsigned int submit_time_us; [snipped] 748 struct bio bio; 749 }; Because struct bio is embedded at the end of struct bbio, therefore the actual size of struct bbio is sizeof(struct bio) + size of the embedded bio->bi_inline_vecs. Now all the meta data bucket size are limited to meta_bucket_pages(), if the bucket size is large than meta_bucket_pages()*PAGE_SECTORS, rested space in the bucket is unused. Therefore the most used space in meta bucket is (1<<MAX_ORDER) pages, or (1<<CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER) if it is configured. Therefore for large bucket size, it is unnecessary to calculate the allocation size of mempool c->bio_meta as, mempool_init_kmalloc_pool(&c->bio_meta, 2, sizeof(struct bbio) + sizeof(struct bio_vec) * bucket_pages(c)) It is too large, neither the Linux buddy allocator cannot allocate so much continuous pages, nor the extra allocated pages are wasted. This patch replace bucket_pages() to meta_bucket_pages() in two places, - In bch_cache_set_alloc(), when initialize mempool c->bio_meta, uses sizeof(struct bbio) + sizeof(struct bio_vec) * bucket_pages(c) to set the allocating object size. - In bch_bbio_alloc(), when calling bio_init() to set inline bvec talbe bi_inline_bvecs, uses meta_bucket_pages() to indicate number of the inline bio vencs number. Now the maximum size of embedded bio inside struct bbio exactly matches the limit of meta_bucket_pages(), no extra page wasted.

2020-07-25bcache: avoid extra memory allocation from mempool c->fill_iterColy Li
Mempool c->fill_iter is used to allocate memory for struct btree_iter in bch_btree_node_read_done() to iterate all keys of a read-in btree node. The allocation size is defined in bch_cache_set_alloc() by, mempool_init_kmalloc_pool(&c->fill_iter, 1, iter_size)) where iter_size is defined by a calculation, (sb->bucket_size / sb->block_size + 1) * sizeof(struct btree_iter_set) For 16bit width bucket_size the calculation is OK, but now the bucket size is extended to 32bit, the bucket size can be 2GB. By the above calculation, iter_size can be 2048 pages (order 11 is still accepted by buddy allocator). But the actual size holds the bkeys in meta data bucket is limited to meta_bucket_pages() already, which is 16MB. By the above calculation, if replace sb->bucket_size by meta_bucket_pages() * PAGE_SECTORS, the result is 16 pages. This is the size large enough for the mempool allocation to struct btree_iter. Therefore in worst case every time mempool c->fill_iter allocates, at most 4080 pages are wasted and won't be used. Therefore this patch uses meta_bucket_pages() * PAGE_SECTORS to calculate the iter size in bch_cache_set_alloc(), to avoid extra memory allocation from mempool c->fill_iter.

When create cache device on zoned device (e.g. zoned NVMe SSD), making a single bucket cover one or more zones of the zoned device is the simplest way to support zoned device as cache by bcache. But current maximum bucket size is 16MB and a typical zone size of zoned device is 256MB, this is the major motiviation to extend bucket size to a larger bit width. This patch is the basic and first change to support large bucket size, the major changes it makes are, - Add BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LARGE_BUCKET for the large bucket feature, INCOMPAT means it introduces incompatible on-disk format change. - Add BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_FUNCS(large_bucket, LARGE_BUCKET) routines. - Adds __le16 bucket_size_hi into struct cache_sb_disk at offset 0x8d0 for the on-disk super block format. - For the in-memory super block struct cache_sb, member bucket_size is extended from __u16 to __32. - Add get_bucket_size() to combine the bucket_size and bucket_size_hi from struct cache_sb_disk into an unsigned int value. Since we already have large bucket size helpers meta_bucket_pages(), meta_bucket_bytes() and alloc_meta_bucket_pages(), they make sure when bucket size > 8MB, the memory allocation for bcache meta data bucket won't fail no matter how large the bucket size extended. So these meta data buckets are handled properly when the bucket size width increase from 16bit to 32bit, we don't need to worry about them.

2020-07-25bcache: handle btree node memory allocation properly for bucket size > 8MBColy Li
Currently the bcache internal btree node occupies a whole bucket. When loading the btree node from cache device into memory, mca_data_alloc() will call bch_btree_keys_alloc() to allocate memory for the whole bucket size, ilog2(b->c->btree_pages) is send to bch_btree_keys_alloc() as the parameter 'page_order'. c->btree_pages is set as bucket_pages() in bch_cache_set_alloc(), for bucket size > 8MB, ilog2(b->c->btree_pages) is 12 for 4KB page size. By default the maximum page order __get_free_pages() accepts is MAX_ORDER (11), in this condition bch_btree_keys_alloc() will always fail. Because of other over-page-order allocation failure fails the cache device registration, such btree node allocation failure wasn't observed during runtime. After other blocking page allocation failures for bucket size > 8MB, this btree node allocation issue may trigger potentical risk e.g. infinite dead-loop to retry btree node allocation after failure. This patch fixes the potential problem by setting c->btree_pages to meta_bucket_pages() in bch_cache_set_alloc(). In the condition that bucket size > 8MB, meta_bucket_pages() will always return a number which won't exceed the maximum page order of the buddy allocator.

2020-07-25bcache: handle cache set verify_ondisk properly for bucket size > 8MBColy Li
In bch_btree_cache_alloc() when CONFIG_BCACHE_DEBUG is configured, allocate memory for c->verify_ondisk may fail if the bucket size > 8MB, which will require __get_free_pages() to allocate continuous pages with order > 11 (the default MAX_ORDER of Linux buddy allocator). Such over size allocation will fail, and cause 2 problems, - When CONFIG_BCACHE_DEBUG is configured, bch_btree_verify() does not work, because c->verify_ondisk is NULL and bch_btree_verify() returns immediately. - bch_btree_cache_alloc() will fail due to c->verify_ondisk allocation failed, then the whole cache device registration fails. And because of this failure, the first problem of bch_btree_verify() has no chance to be triggered. This patch fixes the above problem by two means, 1) If pages allocation of c->verify_ondisk fails, set it to NULL and returns bch_btree_cache_alloc() with -ENOMEM. 2) When calling __get_free_pages() to allocate c->verify_ondisk pages, use ilog2(meta_bucket_pages(&c->sb)) to make sure ilog2() will always generate a pages order <= MAX_ORDER (or CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER). Then the buddy system won't directly reject the allocation request. Signed-off-by: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2020-07-25bcache: handle cache prio_buckets and disk_buckets properly for bucket size ↵Coly Li
> 8MB Similar to c->uuids, struct cache's prio_buckets and disk_buckets also have the potential memory allocation failure during cache registration if the bucket size > 8MB. ca->prio_buckets can be stored on cache device in multiple buckets, its in-memory space is allocated by kzalloc() interface but normally allocated by alloc_pages() because the size > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE. So allocation of ca->prio_buckets has the MAX_ORDER restriction too. If the bucket size > 8MB, by default the page allocator will fail because the page order > 11 (default MAX_ORDER value). ca->prio_buckets should also use meta_bucket_bytes(), meta_bucket_pages() to decide its memory size and use alloc_meta_bucket_pages() to allocate pages, to avoid the allocation failure during cache set registration when bucket size > 8MB. ca->disk_buckets is a single bucket size memory buffer, it is used to iterate each bucket of ca->prio_buckets, and compose the bio based on memory of ca->disk_buckets, then write ca->disk_buckets memory to cache disk one-by-one for each bucket of ca->prio_buckets. ca->disk_buckets should have in-memory size exact to the meta_bucket_pages(), this is the size that ca->prio_buckets will be stored into each on-disk bucket. This patch fixes the above issues and handle cache's prio_buckets and disk_buckets properly for bucket size larger than 8MB.

Bcache allocates a whole bucket to store c->uuids on cache device, and allocates continuous pages to store it in-memory. When the bucket size exceeds maximum allocable continuous pages, bch_cache_set_alloc() will fail and cache device registration will fail. This patch allocates c->uuids by alloc_meta_bucket_pages(), and uses ilog2(meta_bucket_pages(c)) to indicate order of c->uuids pages when free it. When writing c->uuids to cache device, its size is decided by meta_bucket_pages(c) * PAGE_SECTORS. Now c->uuids is properly handled for bucket size > 8MB.

2020-07-25bcache: introduce meta_bucket_pages() related helper routinesColy Li
Currently the in-memory meta data like c->uuids or c->disk_buckets are allocated by alloc_bucket_pages(). The macro alloc_bucket_pages() calls __get_free_pages() to allocated continuous pages with order indicated by ilog2(bucket_pages(c)), #define alloc_bucket_pages(gfp, c) \ ((void *) __get_free_pages(__GFP_ZERO|gfp, ilog2(bucket_pages(c)))) The maximum order is defined as MAX_ORDER, the default value is 11 (and can be overwritten by CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER). In bcache code the maximum bucket size width is 16bits, this is restricted both by KEY_SIZE size and bucket_size size from struct cache_sb_disk. The maximum 16bits width and power-of-2 value is (1<<15) in unit of sector (512byte). It means the maximum value of bucket size in bytes is (1<<24) bytes a.k.a 4096 pages. When the bucket size is set to maximum permitted value, ilog2(4096) is 12, which exceeds the default maximum order __get_free_pages() can accepted, the failed pages allocation will fail cache set registration procedure and print a kernel oops message for the exceeded pages order. This patch introduces meta_bucket_pages(), meta_bucket_bytes(), and alloc_bucket_pages() helper routines. meta_bucket_pages() indicates the maximum pages can be allocated to meta data bucket, meta_bucket_bytes() indicates the according maximum bytes, and alloc_bucket_pages() does the pages allocation for meta bucket. Because meta_bucket_pages() chooses the smaller value among the bucket size and MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES, it still works when MAX_ORDER overwritten by CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER. Following patches will use these helper routines to decide maximum pages can be allocated for different meta data buckets. If the bucket size is larger than meta_bucket_bytes(), the bcache registration can continue to success, just the space more than meta_bucket_bytes() inside the bucket is wasted. Comparing bcache failed for large bucket size, wasting some space for meta data buckets is acceptable at this moment.

2020-07-25bcache: fix super block seq numbers comparision in register_cache_set()Coly Li
In register_cache_set(), c is pointer to struct cache_set, and ca is pointer to struct cache, if ca->sb.seq > c->sb.seq, it means this registering cache has up to date version and other members, the in- memory version and other members should be updated to the newer value. But current implementation makes a cache set only has a single cache device, so the above assumption works well except for a special case. The execption is when a cache device new created and both ca->sb.seq and c->sb.seq are 0, because the super block is never flushed out yet. In the location for the following if() check, 2156 if (ca->sb.seq > c->sb.seq) { 2157 c->sb.version = ca->sb.version; 2158 memcpy(c->sb.set_uuid, ca->sb.set_uuid, 16); 2159 c->sb.flags = ca->sb.flags; 2160 c->sb.seq = ca->sb.seq; 2161 pr_debug("set version = %llu\n", c->sb.version); 2162 } c->sb.version is not initialized yet and valued 0. When ca->sb.seq is 0, the if() check will fail (because both values are 0), and the cache set version, set_uuid, flags and seq won't be updated. The above problem is hiden for current code, because the bucket size is compatible among different super block version. And the next time when running cache set again, ca->sb.seq will be larger than 0 and cache set super block version will be updated properly. But if the large bucket feature is enabled, sb->bucket_size is the low 16bits of the bucket size. For a power of 2 value, when the actual bucket size exceeds 16bit width, sb->bucket_size will always be 0. Then read_super_common() will fail because the if() check to is_power_of_2(sb->bucket_size) is false. This is how the long time hidden bug is triggered. This patch modifies the if() check to the following way, 2156 if (ca->sb.seq > c->sb.seq || c->sb.seq == 0) { Then cache set's version, set_uuid, flags and seq will always be updated corectly including for a new created cache device.

2020-07-25bcache: fix overflow in offset_to_stripe()Coly Li
offset_to_stripe() returns the stripe number (in type unsigned int) from an offset (in type uint64_t) by the following calculation, do_div(offset, d->stripe_size); For large capacity backing device (e.g. 18TB) with small stripe size (e.g. 4KB), the result is 4831838208 and exceeds UINT_MAX. The actual returned value which caller receives is 536870912, due to the overflow. Indeed in bcache_device_init(), bcache_device->nr_stripes is limited in range [1, INT_MAX]. Therefore all valid stripe numbers in bcache are in range [0, bcache_dev->nr_stripes - 1]. This patch adds a upper limition check in offset_to_stripe(): the max valid stripe number should be less than bcache_device->nr_stripes. If the calculated stripe number from do_div() is equal to or larger than bcache_device->nr_stripe, -EINVAL will be returned. (Normally nr_stripes is less than INT_MAX, exceeding upper limitation doesn't mean overflow, therefore -EOVERFLOW is not used as error code.) This patch also changes nr_stripes' type of struct bcache_device from 'unsigned int' to 'int', and return value type of offset_to_stripe() from 'unsigned int' to 'int', to match their exact data ranges. All locations where bcache_device->nr_stripes and offset_to_stripe() are referenced also get updated for the above type change.

2020-07-21md/raid5: set default stripe_size as 4096Yufen Yu
In RAID5, if issued bio size is bigger than stripe_size, it will be split in the unit of stripe_size and process them one by one. Even for size less then stripe_size, RAID5 also request data from disk at least of stripe_size. Nowdays, stripe_size is equal to the value of PAGE_SIZE. Since filesystem usually issue bio in the unit of 4KB, there is no problem for PAGE_SIZE as 4KB. But, for 64KB PAGE_SIZE, bio from filesystem requests 4KB data while RAID5 issue IO at least stripe_size (64KB) each time. That will waste resource of disk bandwidth and compute xor. To avoding the waste, we want to make stripe_size configurable. This patch just set default stripe_size as 4096. User can also set the value bigger than 4KB for some special requirements, such as we know the issued io size is more than 4KB. To evaluate the new feature, we create raid5 device '/dev/md5' with 4 SSD disk and test it on arm64 machine with 64KB PAGE_SIZE. 1) We format /dev/md5 with mkfs.ext4 and mount ext4 with default configure on /mnt directory. Then, trying to test it by dbench with command: dbench -D /mnt -t 1000 10. Result show as: 'stripe_size = 64KB' Operation Count AvgLat MaxLat ---------------------------------------- NTCreateX 9805011 0.021 64.728 Close 7202525 0.001 0.120 Rename 415213 0.051 44.681 Unlink 1980066 0.079 93.147 Deltree 240 1.793 6.516 Mkdir 120 0.004 0.007 Qpathinfo 8887512 0.007 37.114 Qfileinfo 1557262 0.001 0.030 Qfsinfo 1629582 0.012 0.152 Sfileinfo 798756 0.040 57.641 Find 3436004 0.019 57.782 WriteX 4887239 0.021 57.638 ReadX 15370483 0.005 37.818 LockX 31934 0.003 0.022 UnlockX 31933 0.001 0.021 Flush 687205 13.302 530.088 Throughput 307.799 MB/sec 10 clients 10 procs max_latency=530.091 ms ------------------------------------------------------- 'stripe_size = 4KB' Operation Count AvgLat MaxLat ---------------------------------------- NTCreateX 11999166 0.021 36.380 Close 8814128 0.001 0.122 Rename 508113 0.051 29.169 Unlink 2423242 0.070 38.141 Deltree 300 1.885 7.155 Mkdir 150 0.004 0.006 Qpathinfo 10875921 0.007 35.485 Qfileinfo 1905837 0.001 0.032 Qfsinfo 1994304 0.012 0.125 Sfileinfo 977450 0.029 26.489 Find 4204952 0.019 9.361 WriteX 5981890 0.019 27.804 ReadX 18809742 0.004 33.491 LockX 39074 0.003 0.025 UnlockX 39074 0.001 0.014 Flush 841022 10.712 458.848 Throughput 376.777 MB/sec 10 clients 10 procs max_latency=458.852 ms ------------------------------------------------------- It show that setting stripe_size as 4KB has higher thoughput, i.e. (376.777 vs 307.799) and has smaller latency than that setting as 64KB. 2) We try to evaluate IO throughput for /dev/md5 by fio with config: [4KB randwrite] direct=1 numjob=2 iodepth=64 ioengine=libaio filename=/dev/md5 bs=4KB rw=randwrite [64KB write] direct=1 numjob=2 iodepth=64 ioengine=libaio filename=/dev/md5 bs=1MB rw=write The result as follow: + + | stripe_size(64KB) | stripe_size(4KB) +----------------------------------------------------+ 4KB randwrite | 15MB/s | 100MB/s +----------------------------------------------------+ 1MB write | 1000MB/s | 700MB/s The result show that when size of io is bigger than 4KB (64KB), 64KB stripe_size has much higher IOPS. But for 4KB randwrite, that means, size of io issued to device are smaller, 4KB stripe_size have better performance. Normally, default value (4096) can get relatively good performance. But if each issued io is bigger than 4096, setting value more than 4096 may get better performance. Here, we just set default stripe_size as 4096, and we will try to support setting different stripe_size by sysfs interface in the following patch.
