blk-mq: improve warning for running a queue on the wrong CPU

2016-08-24T21:38:01Z

__blk_mq_run_hw_queue() currently warns if we are running the queue on a CPU that isn't set in its mask. However, this can happen if a CPU is being offlined, and the workqueue handling will place the work on CPU0 instead. Improve the warning so that it only triggers if the batch cpu in the hardware queue is currently online. If it triggers for that case, then it's indicative of a flow problem in blk-mq, so we want to retain it for that case. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: don't overwrite rq->mq_ctx

2016-08-24T21:34:35Z

We do this in a few places, if the CPU is offline. This isn't allowed, though, since on multi queue hardware, we can't just move a request from one software queue to another, if they map to different hardware queues. The request and tag isn't valid on another hardware queue. This can happen if plugging races with CPU offlining. But it does no harm, since it can only happen in the window where we are currently busy freezing the queue and flushing IO, in preparation for redoing the software <-> hardware queue mappings.

block: make sure a big bio is split into at most 256 bvecs

2016-08-24T14:17:24Z

After arbitrary bio size was introduced, the incoming bio may be very big. We have to split the bio into small bios so that each holds at most BIO_MAX_PAGES bvecs for safety reason, such as bio_clone(). This patch fixes the following kernel crash: > [ 172.660142] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 > [ 172.660229] IP: [] bio_trim+0xf/0x2a > [ 172.660289] PGD 7faf3e067 PUD 7f9279067 PMD 0 > [ 172.660399] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP > [...] > [ 172.664780] Call Trace: > [ 172.664813] [] ? raid1_make_request+0x2e8/0xad7 [raid1] > [ 172.664846] [] ? blk_queue_split+0x377/0x3d4 > [ 172.664880] [] ? md_make_request+0xf6/0x1e9 [md_mod] > [ 172.664912] [] ? generic_make_request+0xb5/0x155 > [ 172.664947] [] ? prio_io+0x85/0x95 [bcache] > [ 172.664981] [] ? register_cache_set+0x355/0x8d0 [bcache] > [ 172.665016] [] ? register_bcache+0x1006/0x1174 [bcache] The issue can be reproduced by the following steps: - create one raid1 over two virtio-blk - build bcache device over the above raid1 and another cache device and bucket size is set as 2Mbytes - set cache mode as writeback - run random write over ext4 on the bcache device Fixes: 54efd50(block: make generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios) Reported-by: Sebastian Roesner Reported-by: Eric Wheeler Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org (4.3+) Cc: Shaohua Li Acked-by: Kent Overstreet Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf

2016-08-07T20:41:02Z

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger, rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break at compile time instead of at runtime. No intended functional changes in this commit.

blk-mq: fix deadlock in blk_mq_register_disk() error path

block: fix bdi vs gendisk lifetime mismatch

2016-08-04T20:19:16Z

The name for a bdi of a gendisk is derived from the gendisk's devt. However, since the gendisk is destroyed before the bdi it leaves a window where a new gendisk could dynamically reuse the same devt while a bdi with the same name is still live. Arrange for the bdi to hold a reference against its "owner" disk device while it is registered. Otherwise we can hit sysfs duplicate name collisions like the following: WARNING: CPU: 10 PID: 2078 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x64/0x80 sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/bdi/259:1' Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL580 Gen8, BIOS P79 05/06/2015 0000000000000286 0000000002c04ad5 ffff88006f24f970 ffffffff8134caec ffff88006f24f9c0 0000000000000000 ffff88006f24f9b0 ffffffff8108c351 0000001f0000000c ffff88105d236000 ffff88105d1031e0 ffff8800357427f8 Call Trace: [] dump_stack+0x63/0x87 [] __warn+0xd1/0xf0 [] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x5f/0x80 [] sysfs_warn_dup+0x64/0x80 [] sysfs_create_dir_ns+0x7e/0x90 [] kobject_add_internal+0xaa/0x320 [] ? vsnprintf+0x34e/0x4d0 [] kobject_add+0x75/0xd0 [] ? mutex_lock+0x12/0x2f [] device_add+0x125/0x610 [] device_create_groups_vargs+0xd8/0x100 [] device_create_vargs+0x1c/0x20 [] bdi_register+0x8c/0x180 [] bdi_register_dev+0x27/0x30 [] add_disk+0x175/0x4a0 Cc: Reported-by: Yi Zhang Tested-by: Yi Zhang Signed-off-by: Dan Williams Fixed up missing 0 return in bdi_register_owner().

blk-mq: Allow timeouts to run while queue is freezing

2016-08-04T20:19:16Z

In case a submitted request gets stuck for some reason, the block layer can prevent the request starvation by starting the scheduled timeout work. If this stuck request occurs at the same time another thread has started a queue freeze, the blk_mq_timeout_work will not be able to acquire the queue reference and will return silently, thus not issuing the timeout. But since the request is already holding a q_usage_counter reference and is unable to complete, it will never release its reference, preventing the queue from completing the freeze started by first thread. This puts the request_queue in a hung state, forever waiting for the freeze completion. This was observed while running IO to a NVMe device at the same time we toggled the CPU hotplug code. Eventually, once a request got stuck requiring a timeout during a queue freeze, we saw the CPU Hotplug notification code get stuck inside blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait, as shown in the trace below.

This can be achieved with percpu_refcount_tryget, which does not require the counter to be alive. This way the timeout work can do it's job and terminate a stuck request even during a freeze, returning its reference and avoiding the deadlock. Allowing the timeout to run is just a part of the fix, since for some devices, we might get stuck again inside the device driver's timeout handler, should it attempt to allocate a new request in that path - which is a quite common action for Abort commands, which need to be sent after a timeout. In NVMe, for instance, we call blk_mq_alloc_request from inside the timeout handler, which will fail during a freeze, since it also tries to acquire a queue reference. I considered a similar change to blk_mq_alloc_request as a generic solution for further device driver hangs, but we can't do that, since it would allow new requests to disturb the freeze process. I thought about creating a new function in the block layer to support unfreezable requests for these occasions, but after working on it for a while, I feel like this should be handled in a per-driver basis. I'm now experimenting with changes to the NVMe timeout path, but I'm open to suggestions of ways to make this generic.
