md: improve handling of bio with REQ_PREFLUSH in md_flush_request()

2019-12-17T18:56:14+00:00

commit 775d78319f1ceb32be8eb3b1202ccdc60e9cb7f1 upstream.

If pers->make_request fails in md_flush_request(), the bio is lost. To
fix this, pass back a bool to indicate if the original make_request call
should continue to handle the I/O and instead of assuming the flush logic
will push it to completion.

Convert md_flush_request to return a bool and no longer calls the raid
driver's make_request function.  If the return is true, then the md flush
logic has or will complete the bio and the md make_request call is done.
If false, then the md make_request function needs to keep processing like
it is a normal bio. Let the original call to md_handle_request handle any
need to retry sending the bio to the raid driver's make_request function
should it be needed.

Also mark md_flush_request and the make_request function pointer as
__must_check to issue warnings should these critical return values be
ignored.

dm zoned: reduce overhead of backing device checks

2019-12-17T18:56:12+00:00

commit e7fad909b68aa37470d9f2d2731b5bec355ee5d6 upstream.

Commit 75d66ffb48efb3 added backing device health checks and as a part
of these checks, check_events() block ops template call is invoked in
dm-zoned mapping path as well as in reclaim and flush path. Calling
check_events() with ATA or SCSI backing devices introduces a blocking
scsi_test_unit_ready() call being made in sd_check_events(). Even though
the overhead of calling scsi_test_unit_ready() is small for ATA zoned
devices, it is much larger for SCSI and it affects performance in a very
negative way.

Fix this performance regression by executing check_events() only in case
of any I/O errors. The function dmz_bdev_is_dying() is modified to call
only blk_queue_dying(), while calls to check_events() are made in a new
helper function, dmz_check_bdev().

md/raid10: prevent access of uninitialized resync_pages offset

2019-11-29T09:09:45+00:00

commit 45422b704db392a6d79d07ee3e3670b11048bd53 upstream.

Due to unneeded multiplication in the out_free_pages portion of
r10buf_pool_alloc(), when using a 3-copy raid10 layout, it is
possible to access a resync_pages offset that has not been
initialized.  This access translates into a crash of the system
within resync_free_pages() while passing a bad pointer to
put_page().  Remove the multiplication, preventing access to the
uninitialized area.

dm cache: fix bugs when a GFP_NOWAIT allocation fails

2019-10-17T15:13:50+00:00

GFP_NOWAIT allocation can fail anytime - it doesn't wait for memory being
available and it fails if the mempool is exhausted and there is not enough
memory.

If we go down this path:
  map_bio -> mg_start -> alloc_migration -> mempool_alloc(GFP_NOWAIT)
we can see that map_bio() doesn't check the return value of mg_start(),
and the bio is leaked.

If we go down this path:
  map_bio -> mg_start -> mg_lock_writes -> alloc_prison_cell ->
  dm_bio_prison_alloc_cell_v2 -> mempool_alloc(GFP_NOWAIT) ->
  mg_lock_writes -> mg_complete
the bio is ended with an error - it is unacceptable because it could
cause filesystem corruption if the machine ran out of memory
temporarily.

Change GFP_NOWAIT to GFP_NOIO, so that the mempool code will properly
wait until memory becomes available. mempool_alloc with GFP_NOIO can't
fail, so remove the code paths that deal with allocation failure.

dm snapshot: rework COW throttling to fix deadlock

2019-10-10T13:46:05+00:00

Commit 721b1d98fb517a ("dm snapshot: Fix excessive memory usage and
workqueue stalls") introduced a semaphore to limit the maximum number of
in-flight kcopyd (COW) jobs.

The implementation of this throttling mechanism is prone to a deadlock:

1. One or more threads write to the origin device causing COW, which is
   performed by kcopyd.

2. At some point some of these threads might reach the s->cow_count
   semaphore limit and block in down(&s->cow_count), holding a read lock
   on _origins_lock.

3. Someone tries to acquire a write lock on _origins_lock, e.g.,
   snapshot_ctr(), which blocks because the threads at step (2) already
   hold a read lock on it.

4. A COW operation completes and kcopyd runs dm-snapshot's completion
   callback, which ends up calling pending_complete().
   pending_complete() tries to resubmit any deferred origin bios. This
   requires acquiring a read lock on _origins_lock, which blocks.

   This happens because the read-write semaphore implementation gives
   priority to writers, meaning that as soon as a writer tries to enter
   the critical section, no readers will be allowed in, until all
   writers have completed their work.

   So, pending_complete() waits for the writer at step (3) to acquire
   and release the lock. This writer waits for the readers at step (2)
   to release the read lock and those readers wait for
   pending_complete() (the kcopyd thread) to signal the s->cow_count
   semaphore: DEADLOCK.

The above was thoroughly analyzed and documented by Nikos Tsironis as
part of his initial proposal for fixing this deadlock, see:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2019-October/msg00001.html

Fix this deadlock by reworking COW throttling so that it waits without
holding any locks. Add a variable 'in_progress' that counts how many
kcopyd jobs are running. A function wait_for_in_progress() will sleep if
'in_progress' is over the limit. It drops _origins_lock in order to
avoid the deadlock.
