commit 58ac323084ebf44f8470eeb8b82660f9d0ee3689 upstream.

Stale &amp;&amp; dirty keys can be produced in the follow way:
After writeback in write_dirty_finish(), dirty keys k1 will
replace by clean keys k2
==&gt;ret = bch_btree_insert(dc-&gt;disk.c, &amp;keys, NULL, &amp;w-&gt;key);
==&gt;btree_insert_fn(struct btree_op *b_op, struct btree *b)
==&gt;static int bch_btree_insert_node(struct btree *b,
       struct btree_op *op,
       struct keylist *insert_keys,
       atomic_t *journal_ref,
Then two steps:
A) update k1 to k2 in btree node memory;
   bch_btree_insert_keys(b, op, insert_keys, replace_key)
B) Write the bset(contains k2) to cache disk by a 30s delay work
   bch_btree_leaf_dirty(b, journal_ref).
But before the 30s delay work write the bset to cache device,
these things happened:
A) GC works, and reclaim the bucket k2 point to;
B) Allocator works, and invalidate the bucket k2 point to,
   and increase the gen of the bucket, and place it into free_inc
   fifo;
C) Until now, the 30s delay work still does not finish work,
   so in the disk, the key still is k1, it is dirty and stale
   (its gen is smaller than the gen of the bucket). and then the
   machine power off suddenly happens;
D) When the machine power on again, after the btree reconstruction,
   the stale dirty key appear.

In bch_extent_bad(), when expensive_debug_checks is off, it would
treat the dirty key as good even it is stale keys, and it would
cause bellow probelms:
A) In read_dirty() it would cause machine crash:
   BUG_ON(ptr_stale(dc-&gt;disk.c, &amp;w-&gt;key, 0));
B) It could be worse when reads hits stale dirty keys, it would
   read old incorrect data.

This patch tolerate the existence of these stale &amp;&amp; dirty keys,
and treat them as bad key in bch_extent_bad().

commit 9951379b0ca88c95876ad9778b9099e19a95d566 upstream.

Some users see panics like the following when performing fstrim on a

We have observed it where both:
1) LVM/devmapper is involved (bcache backing device is LVM volume) and
2) writeback cache is involved (bcache cache_mode is writeback)

On one machine, we can reliably reproduce it with:

 # echo writeback &gt; /sys/block/bcache0/bcache/cache_mode
   (not sure whether above line is required)
 # mount /dev/bcache0 /test
 # for i in {0..10}; do
	file="$(mktemp /test/zero.XXX)"
	dd if=/dev/zero of="$file" bs=1M count=256
	sync
	rm $file
    done
  # fstrim -v /test

Observing this with tracepoints on, we see the following writes:

fstrim-18019 [022] .... 91107.302026: bcache_write: 73f95583-561c-408f-a93a-4cbd2498f5c8 inode 0  DS 4260112 + 196352 hit 0 bypass 1

&lt;crash&gt;

Note the final one has different hit/bypass flags.

This is because in should_writeback(), we were hitting a case where
the partial stripe condition was returning true and so
should_writeback() was returning true early.

If that hadn't been the case, it would have hit the would_skip test, and
as would_skip == s-&gt;iop.bypass == true, should_writeback() would have
returned false.

Looking at the git history from 'commit 72c270612bd3 ("bcache: Write out
full stripes")', it looks like the idea was to optimise for raid5/6:

       * If a stripe is already dirty, force writes to that stripe to
	 writeback mode - to help build up full stripes of dirty data

To fix this issue, make sure that should_writeback() on a discard op
never returns true.

&lt;crash&gt;

Note the final one has different hit/bypass flags.

This is because in should_writeback(), we were hitting a case where
the partial stripe condition was returning true and so
should_writeback() was returning true early.

If that hadn't been the case, it would have hit the would_skip test, and
as would_skip == s-&gt;iop.bypass == true, should_writeback() would have
returned false.

Looking at the git history from 'commit 72c270612bd3 ("bcache: Write out
full stripes")', it looks like the idea was to optimise for raid5/6:

       * If a stripe is already dirty, force writes to that stripe to
	 writeback mode - to help build up full stripes of dirty data

To fix this issue, make sure that should_writeback() on a discard op
never returns true.

commit 2d6cb6edd2c7fb4f40998895bda45006281b1ac5 upstream.

refill-&gt;end record the last key of writeback, for example, at the first
time, keys (1,128K) to (1,1024K) are flush to the backend device, but
the end key (1,1024K) is not included, since the bellow code:
	if (bkey_cmp(k, refill-&gt;end) &gt;= 0) {
		ret = MAP_DONE;
		goto out;
	}
And in the next time when we refill writeback keybuf again, we searched
key start from (1,1024K), and got a key bigger than it, so the key
(1,1024K) missed.
This patch modify the above code, and let the end key to be included to
the writeback key buffer.

commit c157313791a999646901b3e3c6888514ebc36d62 upstream.

Currently, Cache missed IOs are identified by s-&gt;cache_miss, but actually,
there are many situations that missed IOs are not assigned a value for
s-&gt;cache_miss in cached_dev_cache_miss(), for example, a bypassed IO
(s-&gt;iop.bypass = 1), or the cache_bio allocate failed. In these situations,
it will go to out_put or out_submit, and s-&gt;cache_miss is null, which leads
bch_mark_cache_accounting() to treat this IO as a hit IO.

commit 0f843e65d9eef4936929bb036c5f771fb261eea4 upstream.

After write SSD completed, bcache schedules journal_write work to
system_wq, which is a public workqueue in system, without WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
flag. system_wq is also a bound wq, and there may be no idle kworker on
current processor. Creating a new kworker may unfortunately need to
reclaim memory first, by shrinking cache and slab used by vfs, which
depends on bcache device. That's a deadlock.

This patch create a new workqueue for journal_write with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
flag. It's rescuer thread will work to avoid the deadlock.

commit 330a4db89d39a6b43f36da16824eaa7a7509d34d upstream.

mutex_destroy does nothing most of time, but it's better to call
it to make the code future proof and it also has some meaning
for like mutex debug.

As Coly pointed out in a previous review, bcache_exit() may not be
able to handle all the references properly if userspace registers
cache and backing devices right before bch_debug_init runs and
bch_debug_init failes later. So not exposing userspace interface
until everything is ready to avoid that issue.

commit 81baf90af2dcc8259e99e2f236024524b55313fc upstream.

alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_workqueue().

Dedicated workqueues have been used since bcache_wq and moving_gc_wq
are workqueues for writes and are being used on a memory reclaim path.
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set to ensure forward progress under memory
pressure.
Since there are only a fixed number of work items, explicit concurrency
limit is unnecessary here.

commit 86755b7a96faed57f910f9e6b8061e019ac1ec08 upstream.

This can happen e.g. during disk cloning.

This is an incomplete fix: it does not catch duplicate UUIDs earlier
when things are still unattached.  It does not unregister the device.
Further changes to cope better with this are planned but conflict with
Coly's ongoing improvements to handling device errors.  In the meantime,
one can manually stop the device after this has happened.

Attempts to attach a duplicate device result in:

[  136.372404] loop: module loaded
[  136.424461] bcache: register_bdev() registered backing device loop0
[  136.424464] bcache: bch_cached_dev_attach() Tried to attach loop0 but duplicate UUID already attached

My test procedure is:

  dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=imgfile bs=1024 count=262144
  losetup -f imgfile
