2010-03-06dm: eliminate some holes data structuresMike Snitzer1-13/+13
Eliminate a 4-byte hole in 'struct dm_io_memory' by moving 'offset' above the 'ptr' to which it applies (size reduced from 24 to 16 bytes). And by association, 1-4 byte hole is eliminated in 'struct dm_io_request' (size reduced from 56 to 48 bytes). Eliminate all 6 4-byte holes and 1 cache-line in 'struct dm_snapshot' (size reduced from 392 to 368 bytes).

2009-12-10dm snapshot: merge consecutive chunks togetherMike Snitzer1-10/+21
s->store->type->prepare_merge returns the number of chunks that can be copied linearly working backwards from the returned chunk number. For example, if it returns 3 chunks with old_chunk == 10 and new_chunk == 20, then chunk 20 can be copied to 10, chunk 19 to 9 and 18 to 8. Until now kcopyd only copied one chunk at a time. This patch now copies the full set at once. Consequently, snapshot_merge_process() needs to delay the merging of all chunks if any have writes in progress, not just the first chunk in the region that is to be merged. snapshot-merge's performance is now comparable to the original snapshot-origin target.

2009-12-10dm snapshot: trigger exceptions in remaining snapshots during mergeMikulas Patocka1-0/+83
When there is one merging snapshot and other non-merging snapshots, snapshot_merge_process() must make exceptions in the non-merging snapshots. Use a sequence count to resolve the race between I/O to chunks that are about to be merged. The count increases each time an exception reallocation finishes. Use wait_event() to wait until the count changes.

2009-12-10dm snapshot: avoid allocating exceptions in mergeMikulas Patocka1-1/+56
The snapshot-merge target should not allocate new exceptions because the intent is to merge all of its exceptions as quickly and safely as possible. This patch introduces the snapshot-merge mapping function and updates __origin_write() so that it doesn't allocate exceptions on any snapshots that are being merged. If a write request to a merging snapshot device is to be dispatched directly to the origin (because the chunk is not remapped or was already merged), snapshot_merge_map() must make exceptions in other snapshots so calls do_origin().

2009-12-10dm snapshot: rework writing to originMikulas Patocka1-106/+49
To track the completion of exceptions relating to the same location on the device, the current code selects one exception as primary_pe, links the other exceptions to it and uses reference counting to wait until all the reallocations are complete. It is considered too complicated to extend this code to handle the new snapshot-merge target, where sets of non-overlapping chunks would also need to become linked. Instead, a simpler (but less efficient) approach is taken. Bios are linked to one exception. When it completes, bios are simply retried, and if other related exceptions are still outstanding, they'll get queued again to wait for another one.

2009-12-10dm snapshot: add merge targetMikulas Patocka1-12/+41
The snapshot-merge target allows a snapshot to be merged back into the snapshot's origin device. One anticipated use of snapshot merging is the rollback of filesystems to back out problematic system upgrades. This patch adds snapshot-merge target management to both dm_snapshot_init() and dm_snapshot_exit(). As an initial place-holder, snapshot-merge is identical to the snapshot target.

2009-12-10dm snapshot: allow live exception store handover between tablesMike Snitzer1-27/+236
Permit in-use snapshot exception data to be 'handed over' from one snapshot instance to another. This is a pre-requisite for patches that allow the changes made in a snapshot device to be merged back into its origin device and also allows device resizing. The basic call sequence is: dmsetup load new_snapshot (referencing the existing in-use cow device) - the ctr code detects that the cow is already in use and allows the two snapshot target instances to be linked together dmsetup suspend original_snapshot dmsetup resume new_snapshot - the new_snapshot becomes live, and if anything now tries to access the original one it will receive -EIO dmsetup remove original_snapshot (There can only be two snapshot targets referencing the same cow device simultaneously.)

2009-12-10dm snapshot: cope with chunk size larger than originMikulas Patocka1-0/+2
Under some special conditions the snapshot hash_size is calculated as zero. This patch instead sets a minimum value of 64, the same as for the pending exception table. rounddown_pow_of_two(0) is an undefined operation (it expands to shift by -1). init_exception_table with an argument of 0 would fail with -ENOMEM. The way to trigger the problem is to create a snapshot with a chunk size that is larger than the origin device.

2009-10-16dm snapshot: sort by chunk size to fix raceMikulas Patocka1-1/+6
Avoid a race causing corruption when snapshots of the same origin have different chunk sizes by sorting the internal list of snapshots by chunk size, largest first. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=182659 For example, let's have two snapshots with different chunk sizes. The first snapshot (1) has small chunk size and the second snapshot (2) has large chunk size. Let's have chunks A, B, C in these snapshots: snapshot1: ====A==== ====B==== snapshot2: ==========C========== (Chunk size is a power of 2. Chunks are aligned.) A write to the origin at a position within A and C comes along. It triggers reallocation of A, then reallocation of C and links them together using A as the 'primary' exception. Then another write to the origin comes along at a position within B and C. It creates pending exception for B. C already has a reallocation in progress and it already has a primary exception (A), so nothing is done to it: B and C are not linked. If the reallocation of B finishes before the reallocation of C, because there is no link with the pending exception for C it does not know to wait for it and, the second write is dispatched to the origin and causes data corruption in the chunk C in snapshot2. To avoid this situation, we maintain snapshots sorted in descending order of chunk size. This leads to a guaranteed ordering on the links between the pending exceptions and avoids the problem explained above - both A and B now get linked to C.

2009-09-04dm snapshot: implement iterate devicesMike Snitzer1-2/+21

2009-04-02dm snapshot: avoid having two exceptions for the same chunkMikulas Patocka1-0/+13
We need to check if the exception was completed after dropping the lock. After regaining the lock, __find_pending_exception checks if the exception was already placed into &s->pending hash. But we don't check if the exception was already completed and placed into &s->complete hash. If the process waiting in alloc_pending_exception was delayed at this point because of a scheduling latency and the exception was meanwhile completed, we'd miss that and allocate another pending exception for already completed chunk. It would lead to a situation where two records for the same chunk exist and potential data corruption because multiple snapshot I/Os to the affected chunk could be redirected to different locations in the snapshot.
