2017-06-26lightnvm: pblk: redesign GC algorithmJavier González
At the moment, in order to get enough read parallelism, we have recycled several lines at the same time. This approach has proven not to work well when reaching capacity, since we end up mixing valid data from all lines, thus not maintaining a sustainable free/recycled line ratio. The new design, relies on a two level workqueue mechanism. In the first level, we read the metadata for a number of lines based on the GC list they reside on (this is governed by the number of valid sectors in each line). In the second level, we recycle a single line at a time. Here, we issue reads in parallel, while a single GC write thread places data in the write buffer. This design allows to (i) only move data from one line at a time, thus maintaining a sane free/recycled ration and (ii) maintain the GC writer busy with recycled data.

2017-06-26lightnvm: pblk: choose optimal victim GC lineJavier González
At the moment, we separate the closed lines on three different list based on their number of valid sectors. GC recycles lines from each list based on capacity. Lines from each list are taken in a FIFO fashion. Since the number of lines is limited (it corresponds to the number of blocks in a LUN, which is somewhere between 1000-2000), we can afford scanning the lists to choose the optimal line to be recycled. This helps specially in lines with a high number of valid sectors. If the number of blocks per LUN increases, we will consider a more efficient policy.

2017-06-26lightnvm: pblk: sched. metadata on write threadJavier González
At the moment, line metadata is persisted on a separate work queue, that is kicked each time that a line is closed. The assumption when designing this was that freeing the write thread from creating a new write request was better than the potential impact of writes colliding on the media (user I/O and metadata I/O). Experimentation has proven that this assumption is wrong; collision can cause up to 25% of bandwidth and introduce long tail latencies on the write thread, which potentially cause user write threads to spend more time spinning to get a free entry on the write buffer. This patch moves the metadata logic to the write thread. When a line is closed, remaining metadata is written in memory and is placed on a metadata queue. The write thread then takes the metadata corresponding to the previous line, creates the write request and schedules it to minimize collisions on the media. Using this approach, we see that we can saturate the media's bandwidth, which helps reducing both write latencies and the spinning time for user writer threads.

2017-06-26lightnvm: pblk: generalize erase pathJavier González
Erase I/Os are scheduled with the following goals in mind: (i) minimize LUNs collisions with write I/Os, and (ii) even out the price of erasing on every write, instead of putting all the burden on when garbage collection runs. This works well on the current design, but is specific to the default mapping algorithm. This patch generalizes the erase path so that other mapping algorithms can select an arbitrary line to be erased instead. It also gets rid of the erase semaphore since it creates jittering for user writes.

2017-04-23lightnvm: pblk: fix erase counters on error failJavier González
When block erases fail, these blocks are marked bad. The number of valid blocks in the line was not updated, which could cause an infinite loop on the erase path. Fix this atomic counter and, in order to avoid taking an irq lock on the interrupt context, make the erase counters atomic too. Also, in the case that a significant number of blocks become bad in a line, the result is the double shared metadata buffer (emeta) to stop the pipeline until all metadata is flushed to the media. Increase the number of metadata lines from 2 to 4 to avoid this case.

2017-04-16lightnvm: physical block device (pblk) targetJavier González
This patch introduces pblk, a host-side translation layer for Open-Channel SSDs to expose them like block devices. The translation layer allows data placement decisions, and I/O scheduling to be managed by the host, enabling users to optimize the SSD for their specific workloads. An open-channel SSD has a set of LUNs (parallel units) and a collection of blocks. Each block can be read in any order, but writes must be sequential. Writes may also fail, and if a block requires it, must also be reset before new writes can be applied. To manage the constraints, pblk maintains a logical to physical address (L2P) table, write cache, garbage collection logic, recovery scheme, and logic to rate-limit user I/Os versus garbage collection I/Os. The L2P table is fully-associative and manages sectors at a 4KB granularity. Pblk stores the L2P table in two places, in the out-of-band area of the media and on the last page of a line. In the cause of a power failure, pblk will perform a scan to recover the L2P table. The user data is organized into lines. A line is data striped across blocks and LUNs. The lines enable the host to reduce the amount of metadata to maintain besides the user data and makes it easier to implement RAID or erasure coding in the future. pblk implements multi-tenant support and can be instantiated multiple times on the same drive. Each instance owns a portion of the SSD - both regarding I/O bandwidth and capacity - providing I/O isolation for each case. Finally, pblk also exposes a sysfs interface that allows user-space to peek into the internals of pblk. The interface is available at /dev/block/*/pblk/ where * is the block device name exposed.

2017-04-16lightnvm: submit erases using the I/O pathJavier González
Until now erases have been submitted as synchronous commands through a dedicated erase function. In order to enable targets implementing asynchronous erases, refactor the erase path so that it uses the normal async I/O submission functions. If a target requires sync I/O, it can implement it internally. Also, adapt rrpc to use the new erase path. Signed-off-by: Javier González <javier@cnexlabs.com> Fixed spelling error.

According to error handling in this function, it is likely that going to 'out' was expected here. Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling <matias@cnexlabs.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2017-02-15lightnvm: set default lun range when no luns are specifiedMatias Bjørling
The create target ioctl takes a lun begin and lun end parameter, which defines the range of luns to initialize a target with. If the user does not set the parameters, it default to only using lun 0. Instead, defaults to use all luns in the OCSSD, as it is the usual behaviour users want. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling <matias@cnexlabs.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2017-02-15lightnvm: fix off-by-one error on target initializationMatias Bjørling
If one specifies the end lun id to be the absolute number of luns, without taking zero indexing into account, the lightnvm core will pass the off-by-one end lun id to target creation, which then panics during nvm_ioctl_dev_create.

2017-01-31lightnvm: allow targets to use sysfsJavier González
In order to register through the sysfs interface, a driver needs to know its kobject. On a disk structure, this happens when the partition information is added (device_add_disk), which for lightnvm takes place after the target has been initialized. This means that on target initialization, the kboject has not been created yet. This patch adds a target function to let targets initialize their own kboject as a child of the disk kobject.
