block: centralize PI remapping logic to the block layer

2019-09-18T02:03:49+00:00

Currently t10_pi_prepare/t10_pi_complete functions are called during the
NVMe and SCSi layers command preparetion/completion, but their actual
place should be the block layer since T10-PI is a general data integrity
feature that is used by block storage protocols. Introduce .prepare_fn
and .complete_fn callbacks within the integrity profile that each type
can implement according to its needs.

block: split .sysfs_lock into two locks

2019-08-27T16:40:20+00:00

The kernfs built-in lock of 'kn->count' is held in sysfs .show/.store
path. Meantime, inside block's .show/.store callback, q->sysfs_lock is
required.

However, when mq & iosched kobjects are removed via
blk_mq_unregister_dev() & elv_unregister_queue(), q->sysfs_lock is held
too. This way causes AB-BA lock because the kernfs built-in lock of
'kn-count' is required inside kobject_del() too, see the lockdep warning[1].

On the other hand, it isn't necessary to acquire q->sysfs_lock for
both blk_mq_unregister_dev() & elv_unregister_queue() because
clearing REGISTERED flag prevents storing to 'queue/scheduler'
from being happened. Also sysfs write(store) is exclusive, so no
necessary to hold the lock for elv_unregister_queue() when it is
called in switching elevator path.

So split .sysfs_lock into two: one is still named as .sysfs_lock for
covering sync .store, the other one is named as .sysfs_dir_lock
for covering kobjects and related status change.

sysfs itself can handle the race between add/remove kobjects and
showing/storing attributes under kobjects. For switching scheduler
via storing to 'queue/scheduler', we use the queue flag of
QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED with .sysfs_lock for avoiding the race, then
we can avoid to hold .sysfs_lock during removing/adding kobjects.

block: annotate refault stalls from IO submission

2019-08-14T14:50:01+00:00

psi tracks the time tasks wait for refaulting pages to become
uptodate, but it does not track the time spent submitting the IO. The
submission part can be significant if backing storage is contended or
when cgroup throttling (io.latency) is in effect - a lot of time is
spent in submit_bio(). In that case, we underreport memory pressure.

Annotate submit_bio() to account submission time as memory stall when
the bio is reading userspace workingset pages.

blk-zoned: implement REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL

2019-08-05T03:41:29+00:00

This implements REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL as a special case of the block
device zone reset operations where we just simply issue bio with the
newly introduced req op.

We issue this req op when the number of sectors is equal to the device's
partition's number of sectors and device has no partitions.

We also add support so that blk_op_str() can print the new reset-all
zone operation.

This patch also adds a generic make request check for newly
introduced REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL req_opf. We simply return error
when queue is zoned and reset-all flag is not set for
REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL.

block: Disable write plugging for zoned block devices

2019-07-10T20:18:01+00:00

Simultaneously writing to a sequential zone of a zoned block device
from multiple contexts requires mutual exclusion for BIO issuing to
ensure that writes happen sequentially. However, even for a well
behaved user correctly implementing such synchronization, BIO plugging
may interfere and result in BIOs from the different contextx to be
reordered if plugging is done outside of the mutual exclusion section,
e.g. the plug was started by a function higher in the call chain than
the function issuing BIOs.

         Context A                     Context B

   | blk_start_plug()
   | ...
   | seq_write_zone()
     | mutex_lock(zone)
     | bio-0->bi_iter.bi_sector = zone->wp
     | zone->wp += bio_sectors(bio-0)
     | submit_bio(bio-0)
     | bio-1->bi_iter.bi_sector = zone->wp
     | zone->wp += bio_sectors(bio-1)
     | submit_bio(bio-1)
     | mutex_unlock(zone)
     | return
   | -----------------------> | seq_write_zone()
  				| mutex_lock(zone)
     				| bio-2->bi_iter.bi_sector = zone->wp
     				| zone->wp += bio_sectors(bio-2)
				| submit_bio(bio-2)
				| mutex_unlock(zone)
   | <------------------------- |
   | blk_finish_plug()

In the above example, despite the mutex synchronization ensuring the
correct BIO issuing order 0, 1, 2, context A BIOs 0 and 1 end up being
issued after BIO 2 of context B, when the plug is released with
blk_finish_plug().

While this problem can be addressed using the blk_flush_plug_list()
function (in the above example, the call must be inserted before the
zone mutex lock is released), a simple generic solution in the block
layer avoid this additional code in all zoned block device user code.
The simple generic solution implemented with this patch is to introduce
the internal helper function blk_mq_plug() to access the current
context plug on BIO submission. This helper returns the current plug
only if the target device is not a zoned block device or if the BIO to
be plugged is not a write operation. Otherwise, the caller context plug
is ignored and NULL returned, resulting is all writes to zoned block
device to never be plugged.

blkcg: implement REQ_CGROUP_PUNT

2019-07-10T15:00:57+00:00

When a shared kthread needs to issue a bio for a cgroup, doing so
synchronously can lead to priority inversions as the kthread can be
trapped waiting for that cgroup.  This patch implements
REQ_CGROUP_PUNT flag which makes submit_bio() punt the actual issuing
to a dedicated per-blkcg work item to avoid such priority inversions.

This will be used to fix priority inversions in btrfs compression and
should be generally useful as we grow filesystem support for
comprehensive IO control.

block: init flush rq ref count to 1

2019-07-10T15:00:57+00:00

We discovered a problem in newer kernels where a disconnect of a NBD
device while the flush request was pending would result in a hang.  This
is because the blk mq timeout handler does

        if (!refcount_inc_not_zero(&rq->ref))
                return true;

to determine if it's ok to run the timeout handler for the request.
Flush_rq's don't have a ref count set, so we'd skip running the timeout
handler for this request and it would just sit there in limbo forever.

Fix this by always setting the refcount of any request going through
blk_init_rq() to 1.  I tested this with a nbd-server that dropped flush
requests to verify that it hung, and then tested with this patch to
verify I got the timeout as expected and the error handling kicked in.
