2013-04-18Revert "block: add missing block_bio_complete() tracepoint"Linus Torvalds1-0/+1
This reverts commit 3a366e614d0837d9fc23f78cdb1a1186ebc3387f. Wanlong Gao reports that it causes a kernel panic on his machine several minutes after boot. Reverting it removes the panic. Jens says: "It's not quite clear why that is yet, so I think we should just revert the commit for 3.9 final (which I'm assuming is pretty close). The wifi is crap at the LSF hotel, so sending this email instead of queueing up a revert and pull request."

2013-03-01dm: add target num_write_bios fnAlasdair G Kergon1-7/+15
Add a num_write_bios function to struct target. If an instance of a target sets this, it will be queried before the target's mapping function is called on a write bio, and the response controls the number of copies of the write bio that the target will receive. This provides a convenient way for a target to send the same data to more than one device. The new cache target uses this in writethrough mode, to send the data both to the cache and the backing device. Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2013-03-01dm: merge io_pool and tio_poolJun'ichi Nomura1-49/+27
This patch merges io_pool and tio_pool into io_pool and cleans up related functions. Though device-mapper used to have 2 pools of objects for each dm device, the use of bioset frontbad for per-bio data has shrunk the number of pools to 1 for both bio-based and request-based device types. (See c0820cf5 "dm: introduce per_bio_data" and 94818742 "dm: Use bioset's front_pad for dm_rq_clone_bio_info") So dm no longer has to maintain 2 different pointers. No functional changes.

For bio-based dm, it is good because clone bios do not exist during the table replacement. For request-based dm, however, (not-yet-mapped) clone bios may stay in request queue and survive during the table replacement. So freeing the old bioset could cause the oops in bio_put(). Since the size of front_pad may change only with bio-based dm, it is not necessary to replace bioset for request-based dm.

2013-01-14block: add missing block_bio_complete() tracepointTejun Heo1-1/+0
bio completion didn't kick block_bio_complete TP. Only dm was explicitly triggering the TP on IO completion. This makes block_bio_complete TP useless for tracers which want to know about bios, and all other bio based drivers skip generating blktrace completion events. This patch makes all bio completions via bio_endio() generate block_bio_complete TP. * Explicit trace_block_bio_complete() invocation removed from dm and the trace point is unexported. * @rq dropped from trace_block_bio_complete(). bios may fly around w/o queue associated. Verifying and accessing the assocaited queue belongs to TP probes. * blktrace now gets both request and bio completions. Make it ignore bio completions if request completion path is happening. This makes all bio based drivers generate blktrace completion events properly and makes the block_bio_complete TP actually useful. v2: With this change, block_bio_complete TP could be invoked on sg commands which have bio's with %NULL bi_bdev. Update TP assignment code to check whether bio->bi_bdev is %NULL before dereferencing.

2012-12-21dm: introduce per_bio_dataMikulas Patocka1-18/+15
Introduce a field per_bio_data_size in struct dm_target. Targets can set this field in the constructor. If a target sets this field to a non-zero value, "per_bio_data_size" bytes of auxiliary data are allocated for each bio submitted to the target. These data can be used for any purpose by the target and help us improve performance by removing some per-target mempools. Per-bio data is accessed with dm_per_bio_data. The argument data_size must be the same as the value per_bio_data_size in dm_target. If the target has a pointer to per_bio_data, it can get a pointer to the bio with dm_bio_from_per_bio_data() function (data_size must be the same as the value passed to dm_per_bio_data).

2012-10-12dm: store dm_target_io in bio front_padMikulas Patocka1-59/+49
Use the recently-added bio front_pad field to allocate struct dm_target_io. Prior to this patch, dm_target_io was allocated from a mempool. For each dm_target_io, there is exactly one bio allocated from a bioset. This patch merges these two allocations into one allocation: we create a bioset with front_pad equal to the size of dm_target_io so that every bio allocated from the bioset has sizeof(struct dm_target_io) bytes before it. We allocate a bio and use the bytes before the bio as dm_target_io. _tio_cache is removed and the tio_pool mempool is now only used for request-based devices.

2012-09-26dm: retain table limits when swapping to new table with no devicesMike Snitzer1-1/+14
Add a safety net that will re-use the DM device's existing limits in the event that DM device has a temporary table that doesn't have any component devices. This is to reduce the chance that requests not respecting the hardware limits will reach the device. DM recalculates queue limits based only on devices which currently exist in the table. This creates a problem in the event all devices are temporarily removed such as all paths being lost in multipath. DM will reset the limits to the maximum permissible, which can then assemble requests which exceed the limits of the paths when the paths are restored. The request will fail the blk_rq_check_limits() test when sent to a path with lower limits, and will be retried without end by multipath. This became a much bigger issue after v3.6 commit fe86cdcef ("block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking drivers").

2012-09-26dm: handle requests beyond end of device instead of using BUG_ONMike Snitzer1-18/+38
The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7ad950280e4b2208 ("dm: implement REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly drastic (but simple) response to this situation. I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone and original request with -EIO. map_request() will assign the valid target returned by dm_table_find_target to tio->ti. But when the target isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().

2011-10-31dm: export dm get mdAlasdair G Kergon1-0/+1
Export dm_get_md() for the new thin provisioning target to use. Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2011-10-31dm table: add immutable featureAlasdair G Kergon1-0/+9
Introduce DM_TARGET_IMMUTABLE to indicate that the target type cannot be mixed with any other target type, and once loaded into a device, it cannot be replaced with a table containing a different type. The thin provisioning pool device will use this. Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

2011-10-31dm: use local printk ratelimitNamhyung Kim1-0/+10
printk_ratelimit() shares global ratelimiting state with all other subsystems, so its usage is discouraged. Instead, define and use dm's local state. Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2011-09-12block: remove support for bio remapping from ->make_requestChristoph Hellwig1-7/+7
There is very little benefit in allowing to let a ->make_request instance update the bios device and sector and loop around it in __generic_make_request when we can archive the same through calling generic_make_request from the driver and letting the loop in generic_make_request handle it. Note that various drivers got the return value from ->make_request and returned non-zero values for errors.

2011-08-02dm table: set flush capability based on underlying devicesMike Snitzer1-1/+0
DM has always advertised both REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA flush capabilities regardless of whether or not a given DM device's underlying devices also advertised a need for them. Block's flush-merge changes from 2.6.39 have proven to be more costly for DM devices. Performance regressions have been reported even when DM's underlying devices do not advertise that they have a write cache. Fix the performance regressions by configuring a DM device's flushing capabilities based on those of the underlying devices' capabilities.

2011-08-02dm: ignore merge_bvec for snapshots when safeMikulas Patocka1-0/+61
Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge function returns. When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots which can split them if necessary. Snapshot I/O may be significantly fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance. Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't provide a merge function. After the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't provide a merge function. The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be remapped. Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge function. Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes, it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the filesystem on snapshot store. If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function (such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.

2011-08-02dm table: fix discard supportMike Snitzer1-1/+2
Remove 'discards_supported' from the dm_table structure. The same information can be easily discovered from the table's target(s) in dm_table_supports_discards(). Before this fix dm_table_supports_discards() would skip checking the individual targets' 'discards_supported' flag if any one target in the table didn't set num_discard_requests > 0. Now the per-target 'discards_supported' flag is effective at insuring the final DM device advertises discard support. But, to be clear, targets that don't support discards (!num_discard_requests) will not receive discard requests. Also DMWARN if a target sets 'discards_supported' override but forgets to set 'num_discard_requests'.

2011-03-17block: Require subsystems to explicitly allocate bio_set integrity mempoolMartin K. Petersen1-3/+9
MD and DM create a new bio_set for every metadevice. Each bio_set has an integrity mempool attached regardless of whether the metadevice is capable of passing integrity metadata. This is a waste of memory. Instead we defer the allocation decision to MD and DM since we know at metadevice creation time whether integrity passthrough is needed or not. Automatic integrity mempool allocation can then be removed from bioset_create() and we make an explicit integrity allocation for the fs_bio_set. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

2011-01-13dm: remove superfluous irq disablement in dm_request_fnKiyoshi Ueda1-2/+4
This patch changes spin_lock_irq() to spin_lock() in dm_request_fn(). This patch is just a clean-up and no functional change. The spin_lock_irq() was leftover from the early request-based dm code, where map_request() used to enable interrupts. Since current map_request() never enables interrupts, we can change it to spin_lock() to match the prior spin_unlock(). Auditing through the dm and block-layer code called from map_request(), I confirmed all functions save/restore interrupt status, so no function returning with interrupts enabled. Also I haven't observed any problem on my test environment which uses scsi and lpfc driver after heavy I/O testing with occasional path down/up. Added BUG_ON() to detect breakage in future.

kmirrord_wq, kcopyd_work and md->wq are created per dm instance and serve only a single work item from the dm instance, so non-reentrant workqueues would provide the same ordering guarantees as ordered ones while allowing CPU affinity and use of the workqueues for other purposes.
