2017-01-13block: don't try to discard from __blkdev_issue_zerooutChristoph Hellwig1-7/+6
Discard can return -EIO asynchronously if the alignment for the request isn't suitable for the driver, which makes a proper fallback to other methods in __blkdev_issue_zeroout impossible. Thus only issue a sync discard from blkdev_issue_zeroout an don't try discard at all from __blkdev_issue_zeroout as a non-invasive workaround. One more reason why abusing discard for zeroing must die..

2017-01-12block: Rename blk_queue_zone_size and bdev_zone_sizeDamien Le Moal2-9/+9
All block device data fields and functions returning a number of 512B sectors are by convention named xxx_sectors while names in the form xxx_size are generally used for a number of bytes. The blk_queue_zone_size and bdev_zone_size functions were not following this convention so rename them. No functional change is introduced by this patch.

ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

2016-12-19block: check partition alignmentStefan Haberland1-0/+3
Partitions that are not aligned to the blocksize of a device may cause invalid I/O requests because the blocklayer cares only about alignment within the partition when building requests on partitions. device |--------4096--------|--------4096--------|--------4096--------| partition offset 512byte |-512-|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|--------4096--------| When reading/writing one 4k block of the partition this maps to reading/writing with an offset of 512 byte of the device leading to unaligned requests for the device which in turn may cause unexpected behavior of the device driver. For DASD devices we have to translate the block number into a cylinder, head, record format. The unaligned requests lead to wrong calculation and therefore to misdirected I/O. In a "good" case this leads to I/O errors because the underlying hardware detects the wrong addressing. In a worst case scenario this might destroy data on the device. To prevent partitions that are not aligned to the physical blocksize of a device check for the alignment in the blkpg_ioctl.

2016-12-19block: allow WRITE_SAME commands with the SG_IO ioctlMauricio Faria de Oliveira1-0/+3
The WRITE_SAME commands are not present in the blk_default_cmd_filter write_ok list, and thus are failed with -EPERM when the SG_IO ioctl() is executed without CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability (e.g., unprivileged users). [ sg_io() -> blk_fill_sghdr_rq() > blk_verify_command() -> -EPERM ] The problem can be reproduced with the sg_write_same command # sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda # # capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \ 'sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda' Write same: pass through os error: Operation not permitted # For comparison, the WRITE_VERIFY command does not observe this problem, since it is in that list: # capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \ 'sg_write_verify --num 1 --ilen 512 --lba 0 /dev/sda' # So, this patch adds the WRITE_SAME commands to the list, in order for the SG_IO ioctl to finish successfully: # capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \ 'sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda' # That case happens to be exercised by QEMU KVM guests with 'scsi-block' devices (qemu "-device scsi-block" [1], libvirt "<disk type='block' device='lun'>" [2]), which employs the SG_IO ioctl() and runs as an unprivileged user (libvirt-qemu). In that scenario, when a filesystem (e.g., ext4) performs its zero-out calls, which are translated to write-same calls in the guest kernel, and then into SG_IO ioctls to the host kernel, SCSI I/O errors may be observed in the guest: [...] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#0 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE [...] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#0 Sense Key : Aborted Command [current] [...] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#0 Add.

2016-12-14blk-mq: Fix failed allocation path when mapping queuesGabriel Krisman Bertazi1-5/+21
In blk_mq_map_swqueue, there is a memory optimization that frees the tags of a queue that has gone unmapped. Later, if that hctx is remapped after another topology change, the tags need to be reallocated. If this allocation fails, a simple WARN_ON triggers, but the block layer ends up with an active hctx without any corresponding set of tags. Then, any income IO to that hctx can trigger an Oops. I can reproduce it consistently by running IO, flipping CPUs on and off and eventually injecting a memory allocation failure in that path. In the fix below, if the system experiences a failed allocation of any hctx's tags, we remap all the ctxs of that queue to the hctx_0, which should always keep it's tags. There is a minor performance hit, since our mapping just got worse after the error path, but this is the simplest solution to handle this error path. The performance hit will disappear after another successful remap. I considered dropping the memory optimization all together, but it seemed a bad trade-off to handle this very specific error case. This should apply cleanly on top of Jens' for-next branch.

2016-12-14blk-mq: Avoid memory reclaim when remapping queuesGabriel Krisman Bertazi1-3/+3
While stressing memory and IO at the same time we changed SMT settings, we were able to consistently trigger deadlocks in the mm system, which froze the entire machine. I think that under memory stress conditions, the large allocations performed by blk_mq_init_rq_map may trigger a reclaim, which stalls waiting on the block layer remmaping completion, thus deadlocking the system. The trace below was collected after the machine stalled, waiting for the hotplug event completion. The simplest fix for this is to make allocations in this path non-reclaimable, with GFP_NOIO. With this patch, We couldn't hit the issue anymore. This should apply on top of Jens's for-next branch cleanly. Changes since v1: - Use GFP_NOIO instead of GFP_NOWAIT.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially for cycles that end up being as busy as this one. The major parts of this pull request is: - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small private implementation instead of using the pig that is fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph. - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the writeback queue throttling code. - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode that combines pure polling with an initial sleep.

2016-12-12mm: don't cap request size based on read-ahead settingJens Axboe2-0/+2
We ran into a funky issue, where someone doing 256K buffered reads saw 128K requests at the device level. Turns out it is read-ahead capping the request size, since we use 128K as the default setting. This doesn't make a lot of sense - if someone is issuing 256K reads, they should see 256K reads, regardless of the read-ahead setting, if the underlying device can support a 256K read in a single command. This patch introduces a bdi hint, io_pages. This is the soft max IO size for the lower level, I've hooked it up to the bdev settings here. Read-ahead is modified to issue the maximum of the user request size, and the read-ahead max size, but capped to the max request size on the device side. The latter is done to avoid reading ahead too much, if the application asks for a huge read. With this patch, the kernel behaves like the application expects.

2016-12-09block: improve handling of the magic discard payloadChristoph Hellwig4-78/+21
Instead of allocating a single unused biovec for discard requests, send them down without any payload. Instead we allow the driver to add a "special" payload using a biovec embedded into struct request (unioned over other fields never used while in the driver), and overloading the number of segments for this case. This has a couple of advantages: - we don't have to allocate the bio_vec - the amount of special casing for discard requests in the block layer is significantly reduced - using this same scheme for other request types is trivial, which will be important for implementing the new WRITE_ZEROES op on devices where it actually requires a payload (e.g. SCSI) - we can get rid of playing games with the request length, as we'll never touch it and completions will work just fine - it will allow us to support ranged discard operations in the future by merging non-contiguous discard bios into a single request - last but not least it removes a lot of code This patch is the common base for my WIP series for ranges discards and to remove discard_zeroes_data in favor of always using REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES, so it would be good to get it in quickly.

2016-12-05block: fix unintended fallthrough in generic_make_request_checks()Nicolai Stange1-0/+1
Since commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout") messages like the following show up: EXT4-fs (dm-1): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 2368848 at logical offset 0 with max blocks 1 with error 95 EXT4-fs (dm-1): This should not happen!! Data will be lost Due to the following fallthrough introduced with commit 2d253440b5af ("block: Define zoned block device operations"), generic_make_request_checks() would accept a REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME bio only if the block device supports "write same" *and* is a zoned one: switch (bio_op(bio)) { [...] case REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME: if (!bdev_write_same(bio->bi_bdev)) goto not_supported; case REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT: case REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET: if (!bdev_is_zoned(bio->bi_bdev)) goto not_supported; break; [...] } Thus, although the bio setup as done by __blkdev_issue_write_same() from commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout") would succeed, its actual submission would not, resulting in the EOPNOTSUPP == 95.

This adds a new block layer operation to zero out a range of LBAs. This allows to implement zeroing for devices that don't use either discard with a predictable zero pattern or WRITE SAME of zeroes. The prominent example of that is NVMe with the Write Zeroes command, but in the future, this should also help with improving the way zeroing discards work. For this operation, suitable entry is exported in sysfs which indicate the number of maximum bytes allowed in one write zeroes operation by the device.

2016-12-01block: Check partition alignment on zoned block devicesDamien Le Moal1-0/+65
Both blkdev_report_zones and blkdev_reset_zones can operate on a partition of a zoned block device. However, the first and last zones reported for a partition make sense only if the partition start sector and size are aligned on the device zone size. The same applies for zone reset. Resetting the first or the last zone of a partition straddling zones may impact neighboring partitions. Finally, if a partition start sector is not at the beginning of a sequential zone, it will be impossible to write to the first sectors of the partition on a host-managed device. Avoid all these problems and incoherencies by ignoring partitions that are not zone aligned. Note: Even with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled, bdev_is_zoned() will report the correct disk zoning type (host-aware, host-managed or none) but bdev_zone_size() will always return 0 for zoned block devices (i.e. the zone size is unknown). So test this as a way to ensure that a zoned block device is being handled as such. As a result, for a host-aware devices, unaligned zone partitions will be accepted with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled. That is, the disk will be treated as a regular block device (as it should). If zoned block device support is enabled, only aligned partitions will be accepted.

This patch enables a hybrid polling mode. Instead of polling after IO submission, we can induce an artificial delay, and then poll after that. For example, if the IO is presumed to complete in 8 usecs from now, we can sleep for 4 usecs, wake up, and then do our polling. This still puts a sleep/wakeup cycle in the IO path, but instead of the wakeup happening after the IO has completed, it'll happen before. With this hybrid scheme, we can achieve big latency reductions while still using the same (or less) amount of CPU.
