Given that we support it by default, makes sense that we go the extra mile to actually use the SUCCESS flag.

2019-04-05nvmet-fc: use zero-sized array and struct_size() in kzalloc()Gustavo A. R. Silva1-5/+2
Update the code to use a zero-sized array instead of a pointer in structure nvmet_fc_tgt_queue and use struct_size() in kzalloc(). Notice that one of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo entry[]; }; instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(struct boo) * count, GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

2019-04-01md: batch flush requests.NeilBrown2-4/+26
Currently if many flush requests are submitted to an md device is quick succession, they are serialized and can take a long to process them all. We don't really need to call flush all those times - a single flush call can satisfy all requests submitted before it started. So keep track of when the current flush started and when it finished, allow any pending flush that was requested before the flush started to complete without waiting any more.

2019-04-01Revert "MD: fix lock contention for flush bios"NeilBrown2-119/+62
This reverts commit 5a409b4f56d50b212334f338cb8465d65550cd85. This patch has two problems. 1/ it make multiple calls to submit_bio() from inside a make_request_fn. The bios thus submitted will be queued on current->bio_list and not submitted immediately. As the bios are allocated from a mempool, this can theoretically result in a deadlock - all the pool of requests could be in various ->bio_list queues and a subsequent mempool_alloc could block waiting for one of them to be released. 2/ It aims to handle a case when there are many concurrent flush requests. It handles this by submitting many requests in parallel - all of which are identical and so most of which do nothing useful. It would be more efficient to just send one lower-level request, but allow that to satisfy multiple upper-level requests.

2019-04-01Don't jump to compute_result state from check_result stateNigel Croxon1-15/+4
Changing state from check_state_check_result to check_state_compute_result not only is unsafe but also doesn't appear to serve a valid purpose. A raid6 check should only be pushing out extra writes if doing repair and a mis-match occurs. The stripe dev management will already try and do repair writes for failing sectors. This patch makes the raid6 check_state_check_result handling work more like raid5's. If somehow too many failures for a check, just quit the check operation for the stripe. When any checks pass, don't try and use check_state_compute_result for a purpose it isn't needed for and is unsafe for. Just mark the stripe as in sync for passing its parity checks and let the stripe dev read/write code and the bad blocks list do their job handling I/O errors.

Now block IO stack is basically ready for supporting multi-page bvec, however it isn't enabled on passthrough IO.

Implement multi-page support for passthrough IO by limitting each bvec as block device's segment and applying all kinds of queue limit in blk_add_pc_page().

This can confuse filesystem tools which are SSD-aware; in my case I frequently forget to tell mkfs.btrfs that my loop device on tmpfs is nonrotational, and that I really don't need any automatic metadata redundancy. The attached patch fixes this by introspecting the rotational flag of the mapped file's underlying block device, if it exists. If the mapped file's filesystem has no associated block device - as is the case on e.g. tmpfs - we assume nonrotational storage. If there is a better way to identify such non-devices I'd love to hear them.

2019-04-01block, bfq: save & resume weight on a queue merge/splitFrancesco Pollicino2-0/+11
bfq saves the state of a queue each time a merge occurs, to be able to resume such a state when the queue is associated again with its original process, on a split. Unfortunately bfq does not save & restore also the weight of the queue. If the weight is not correctly resumed when the queue is recycled, then the weight of the recycled queue could differ from the weight of the original queue. This commit adds the missing save & resume of the weight.

2019-04-01block, bfq: print SHARED instead of pid for shared queues in logsFrancesco Pollicino2-4/+29
The function "bfq_log_bfqq" prints the pid of the process associated with the queue passed as input. Unfortunately, if the queue is shared, then more than one process is associated with the queue. The pid that gets printed in this case is the pid of one of the associated processes. Which process gets printed depends on the exact sequence of merge events the queue underwent. So printing such a pid is rather useless and above all is often rather confusing because it reports a random pid between those of the associated processes. This commit addresses this issue by printing SHARED instead of a pid if the queue is shared.

2019-04-01block, bfq: always protect newly-created queues from existing active queuesPaolo Valente1-13/+51
If many bfq_queues belonging to the same group happen to be created shortly after each other, then the processes associated with these queues have typically a common goal. In particular, bursts of queue creations are usually caused by services or applications that spawn many parallel threads/processes. Examples are systemd during boot, or git grep. If there are no other active queues, then, to help these processes get their job done as soon as possible, the best thing to do is to reach a high throughput. To this goal, it is usually better to not grant either weight-raising or device idling to the queues associated with these processes. And this is exactly what BFQ currently does. There is however a drawback: if, in contrast, some other queues are already active, then the newly created queues must be protected from the I/O flowing through the already existing queues. In this case, the best thing to do is the opposite as in the other case: it is much better to grant weight-raising and device idling to the newly-created queues, if they deserve it. This commit addresses this issue by doing so if there are already other active queues. This change also helps eliminating false positives, which occur when the newly-created queues do not belong to an actual large burst of creations, but some background task (e.g., a service) happens to trigger the creation of new queues in the middle, i.e., very close to when the victim queues are created. These false positive may cause total loss of control on process latencies.

2019-04-01block, bfq: do not merge queues on flash storage with queueingPaolo Valente3-6/+73
To boost throughput with a set of processes doing interleaved I/O (i.e., a set of processes whose individual I/O is random, but whose merged cumulative I/O is sequential), BFQ merges the queues associated with these processes, i.e., redirects the I/O of these processes into a common, shared queue. In the shared queue, I/O requests are ordered by their position on the medium, thus sequential I/O gets dispatched to the device when the shared queue is served. Queue merging costs execution time, because, to detect which queues to merge, BFQ must maintain a list of the head I/O requests of active queues, ordered by request positions. Measurements showed that this costs about 10% of BFQ's total per-request processing time. Request processing time becomes more and more critical as the speed of the underlying storage device grows. Yet, fortunately, queue merging is basically useless on the very devices that are so fast to make request processing time critical. To reach a high throughput, these devices must have many requests queued at the same time. But, in this configuration, the internal scheduling algorithms of these devices do also the job of queue merging: they reorder requests so as to obtain as much as possible a sequential I/O pattern. As a consequence, with processes doing interleaved I/O, the throughput reached by one such device is likely to be the same, with and without queue merging. In view of this fact, this commit disables queue merging, and all related housekeeping, for non-rotational devices with internal queueing. The total, single-lock-protected, per-request processing time of BFQ drops to, e.g., 1.9 us on an Intel Core i7-2760QM@2.40GHz (time measured with simple code instrumentation, and using the throughput-sync.sh script of the S suite [1], in performance-profiling mode). To put this result into context, the total, single-lock-protected, per-request execution time of the lightest I/O scheduler available in blk-mq, mq-deadline, is 0.7 us (mq-deadline is ~800 LOC, against ~10500 LOC for BFQ). Disabling merging provides a further, remarkable benefit in terms of throughput. Merging tends to make many workloads artificially more uneven, mainly because of shared queues remaining non empty for incomparably more time than normal queues. So, if, e.g., one of the queues in a set of merged queues has a higher weight than a normal queue, then the shared queue may inherit such a high weight and, by staying almost always active, may force BFQ to perform I/O plugging most of the time. This evidently makes it harder for BFQ to let the device reach a high throughput. As a practical example of this problem, and of the benefits of this commit, we measured again the throughput in the nasty scenario considered in previous commit messages: dbench test (in the Phoronix suite), with 6 clients, on a filesystem with journaling, and with the journaling daemon enjoying a higher weight than normal processes. With this commit, the throughput grows from ~150 MB/s to ~200 MB/s on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5 SSD. This is the same peak throughput reached by any of the other I/O schedulers. As such, this is also likely to be the maximum possible throughput reachable with this workload on this device, because I/O is mostly random, and the other schedulers basically just pass I/O requests to the drive as fast as possible.

2019-04-01block, bfq: tune service injection basing on request service timesPaolo Valente2-59/+409
The processes associated with a bfq_queue, say Q, may happen to generate their cumulative I/O at a lower rate than the rate at which the device could serve the same I/O. This is rather probable, e.g., if only one process is associated with Q and the device is an SSD. It results in Q becoming often empty while in service. If BFQ is not allowed to switch to another queue when Q becomes empty, then, during the service of Q, there will be frequent "service holes", i.e., time intervals during which Q gets empty and the device can only consume the I/O already queued in its hardware queues. This easily causes considerable losses of throughput. To counter this problem, BFQ implements a request injection mechanism, which tries to fill the above service holes with I/O requests taken from other bfq_queues. The hard part in this mechanism is finding the right amount of I/O to inject, so as to both boost throughput and not break Q's bandwidth and latency guarantees. To this goal, the current version of this mechanism measures the bandwidth enjoyed by Q while it is being served, and tries to inject the maximum possible amount of extra service that does not cause Q's bandwidth to decrease too much. This solution has an important shortcoming. For bandwidth measurements to be stable and reliable, Q must remain in service for a much longer time than that needed to serve a single I/O request. Unfortunately, this does not hold with many workloads. This commit addresses this issue by changing the way the amount of injection allowed is dynamically computed. It tunes injection as a function of the service times of single I/O requests of Q, instead of Q's bandwidth. Single-request service times are evidently meaningful even if Q gets very few I/O requests completed while it is in service. As a testbed for this new solution, we measured the throughput reached by BFQ for one of the nastiest workloads and configurations for this scheduler: the workload generated by the dbench test (in the Phoronix suite), with 6 clients, on a filesystem with journaling, and with the journaling daemon enjoying a higher weight than normal processes. With this commit, the throughput grows from ~100 MB/s to ~150 MB/s on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5.

2019-04-01block, bfq: do not idle for lowest-weight queuesPaolo Valente3-94/+118
In most cases, it is detrimental for throughput to plug I/O dispatch when the in-service bfq_queue becomes temporarily empty (plugging is performed to wait for the possible arrival, soon, of new I/O from the in-service queue). There is however a case where plugging is needed for service guarantees. If a bfq_queue, say Q, has a higher weight than some other active bfq_queue, and is sync, i.e., contains sync I/O, then, to guarantee that Q does receive a higher share of the throughput than other lower-weight queues, it is necessary to plug I/O dispatch when Q remains temporarily empty while being served. For this reason, BFQ performs I/O plugging when some active bfq_queue has a higher weight than some other active bfq_queue. But this is unnecessarily overkill. In fact, if the in-service bfq_queue actually has a weight lower than or equal to the other queues, then the queue *must not* be guaranteed a higher share of the throughput than the other queues. So, not plugging I/O cannot cause any harm to the queue. And can boost throughput. Taking advantage of this fact, this commit does not plug I/O for sync bfq_queues with a weight lower than or equal to the weights of the other queues. Here is an example of the resulting throughput boost with the dbench workload, which is particularly nasty for BFQ. With the dbench test in the Phoronix suite, BFQ reaches its lowest total throughput with 6 clients on a filesystem with journaling, in case the journaling daemon has a higher weight than normal processes. Before this commit, the total throughput was ~80 MB/sec on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5, after this commit it is ~100 MB/sec.

2019-04-01block, bfq: increase idling for weight-raised queuesPaolo Valente1-0/+2
If a sync bfq_queue has a higher weight than some other queue, and remains temporarily empty while in service, then, to preserve the bandwidth share of the queue, it is necessary to plug I/O dispatching until a new request arrives for the queue. In addition, a timeout needs to be set, to avoid waiting for ever if the process associated with the queue has actually finished its I/O. Even with the above timeout, the device is however not fed with new I/O for a while, if the process has finished its I/O. If this happens often, then throughput drops and latencies grow. For this reason, the timeout is kept rather low: 8 ms is the current default. Unfortunately, such a low value may cause, on the opposite end, a violation of bandwidth guarantees for a process that happens to issue new I/O too late. The higher the system load, the higher the probability that this happens to some process. This is a problem in scenarios where service guarantees matter more than throughput. One important case are weight-raised queues, which need to be granted a very high fraction of the bandwidth. To address this issue, this commit lower-bounds the plugging timeout for weight-raised queues to 20 ms. This simple change provides relevant benefits. For example, on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5S, with which gnome-terminal starts in 0.6 seconds if there is no other I/O in progress, the same applications starts in - 0.8 seconds, instead of 1.2 seconds, if ten files are being read sequentially in parallel - 1 second, instead of 2 seconds, if, in parallel, five files are being read sequentially, and five more files are being written sequentially Tested-by: Holger Hoffstätte <holger@applied-asynchrony.com> Tested-by: Oleksandr Natalenko <oleksandr@natalenko.name> Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
