block: fix the return errno for direct IO

2019-04-17T06:37:53+00:00

commit a89afe58f1a74aac768a5eb77af95ef4ee15beaa upstream.

If the last bio returned is not dio->bio, the status of the bio will
not assigned to dio->bio if it is error. This will cause the whole IO
status wrong.

We always have to assign bio->bi_status to dio->bio.bi_status because we
will only check dio->bio.bi_status when we return the whole IO to
the upper layer.

blockdev: Fix livelocks on loop device

2019-01-23T07:09:50+00:00

commit 04906b2f542c23626b0ef6219b808406f8dddbe9 upstream.

bd_set_size() updates also block device's block size. This is somewhat
unexpected from its name and at this point, only blkdev_open() uses this
functionality. Furthermore, this can result in changing block size under
a filesystem mounted on a loop device which leads to livelocks inside
__getblk_gfp() like:

mount -t ext4 /dev/loop0 /mnt
losetup -c /dev/loop0
l /mnt

Fix the problem by moving initialization of a block device block size
into a separate function and call it when needed.

Thanks to Tetsuo Handa  for help with
debugging the problem.

fs/mpage.c: fix mpage_writepage() for pages with buffers

2017-10-13T23:18:33+00:00

When using FAT on a block device which supports rw_page, we can hit
BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in try_to_free_buffers().  This is because we
call clean_buffers() after unlocking the page we've written.  Introduce
a new clean_page_buffers() which cleans all buffers associated with a
page and call it from within bdev_write_page().

block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index

2017-08-23T18:49:55+00:00

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O.  The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open.  Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device.  But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

Pull Writeback error handling updates from Jeff Layton:
 "This pile represents the bulk of the writeback error handling fixes
  that I have for this cycle. Some of the earlier patches in this pile
  may look trivial but they are prerequisites for later patches in the
  series.

  The aim of this set is to improve how we track and report writeback
  errors to userland. Most applications that care about data integrity
  will periodically call fsync/fdatasync/msync to ensure that their
  writes have made it to the backing store.

  For a very long time, we have tracked writeback errors using two flags
  in the address_space: AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC. Those flags are set when a
  writeback error occurs (via mapping_set_error) and are cleared as a
  side-effect of filemap_check_errors (as you noted yesterday). This
  model really sucks for userland.

  Only the first task to call fsync (or msync or fdatasync) will see the
  error. Any subsequent task calling fsync on a file will get back 0
  (unless another writeback error occurs in the interim). If I have
  several tasks writing to a file and calling fsync to ensure that their
  writes got stored, then I need to have them coordinate with one
  another. That's difficult enough, but in a world of containerized
  setups that coordination may even not be possible.

  But wait...it gets worse!

  The calls to filemap_check_errors can be buried pretty far down in the
  call stack, and there are internal callers of filemap_write_and_wait
  and the like that also end up clearing those errors. Many of those
  callers ignore the error return from that function or return it to
  userland at nonsensical times (e.g. truncate() or stat()). If I get
  back -EIO on a truncate, there is no reason to think that it was
  because some previous writeback failed, and a subsequent fsync() will
  (incorrectly) return 0.

  This pile aims to do three things:

   1) ensure that when a writeback error occurs that that error will be
      reported to userland on a subsequent fsync/fdatasync/msync call,
      regardless of what internal callers are doing

   2) report writeback errors on all file descriptions that were open at
      the time that the error occurred. This is a user-visible change,
      but I think most applications are written to assume this behavior
      anyway. Those that aren't are unlikely to be hurt by it.

   3) document what filesystems should do when there is a writeback
      error. Today, there is very little consistency between them, and a
      lot of cargo-cult copying. We need to make it very clear what
      filesystems should do in this situation.

  To achieve this, the set adds a new data type (errseq_t) and then
  builds new writeback error tracking infrastructure around that. Once
  all of that is in place, we change the filesystems to use the new
  infrastructure for reporting wb errors to userland.

  Note that this is just the initial foray into cleaning up this mess.
  There is a lot of work remaining here:

   1) convert the rest of the filesystems in a similar fashion. Once the
      initial set is in, then I think most other fs' will be fairly
      simple to convert. Hopefully most of those can in via individual
      filesystem trees.

   2) convert internal waiters on writeback to use errseq_t for
      detecting errors instead of relying on the AS_* flags. I have some
      draft patches for this for ext4, but they are not quite ready for
      prime time yet.

  This was a discussion topic this year at LSF/MM too. If you're
  interested in the gory details, LWN has some good articles about this:

block: convert to errseq_t based writeback error tracking

2017-07-06T11:02:28+00:00

This is a very minimal conversion to errseq_t based error tracking
for raw block device access. Just have it use the standard
file_write_and_wait_range call.

Note that there are internal callers that call sync_blockdev
and the like that are not affected by this. They'll continue
to use the AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC flags for error reporting like
they always have for now.
