2021-06-04dm space maps: improve performance with inc/dec on ranges of blocksJoe Thornber1-38/+53
When we break sharing on btree nodes we typically need to increment the reference counts to every value held in the node. This can cause a lot of repeated calls to the space maps. Fix this by changing the interface to the space map inc/dec methods to take ranges of adjacent blocks to be operated on. For installations that are using a lot of snapshots this will reduce cpu overhead of fundamental operations such as provisioning a new block, or deleting a snapshot, by as much as 10 times.

Just being consistent with locking, but reality is dm_pool_metadata_close is called once pool is being destroyed so access to pool shouldn't be contended. Also, use pmd_write_lock_in_core rather than __pmd_write_lock in dm_pool_commit_metadata and rename __pmd_write_lock to pmd_write_lock_in_core -- there was no need for the alias.

2019-04-18dm thin metadata: do not write metadata if no changes occurredMike Snitzer1-3/+23
Otherwise, just activating a thin-pool and thin device and then deactivating them will cause the thin-pool metadata to be changed (e.g. superblock written) -- even without any metadata being changed. Add 'in_service' flag to struct dm_pool_metadata and set it in pmd_write_lock() because all on-disk metadata changes must take a write lock of pmd->root_lock. Once 'in_service' is set it is never cleared. __commit_transaction() will return 0 if 'in_service' is not set. dm_pool_commit_metadata() is updated to use __pmd_write_lock() so that it isn't the sole reason for putting a thin-pool in service. Also fix dm_pool_commit_metadata() to open the next transaction if the return from __commit_transaction() is 0. Not seeing why the early return ever made since for a return of 0 given that dm-io's async_io(), as used by bufio, always returns 0. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

2019-01-15dm thin: fix passdown_double_checking_shared_status()Joe Thornber1-2/+2
Commit 00a0ea33b495 ("dm thin: do not queue freed thin mapping for next stage processing") changed process_prepared_discard_passdown_pt1() to increment all the blocks being discarded until after the passdown had completed to avoid them being prematurely reused. IO issued to a thin device that breaks sharing with a snapshot, followed by a discard issued to snapshot(s) that previously shared the block(s), results in passdown_double_checking_shared_status() being called to iterate through the blocks double checking their reference count is zero and issuing the passdown if so. So a side effect of commit 00a0ea33b495 is passdown_double_checking_shared_status() was broken. Fix this by checking if the block reference count is greater than 1. Also, rename dm_pool_block_is_used() to dm_pool_block_is_shared().

2018-09-10dm thin metadata: try to avoid ever aborting transactionsJoe Thornber1-1/+35
Committing a transaction can consume some metadata of it's own, we now reserve a small amount of metadata to cover this. Free metadata reported by the kernel will not include this reserve. If any of the reserve has been used after a commit we enter a new internal state PM_OUT_OF_METADATA_SPACE. This is reported as PM_READ_ONLY, so no userland changes are needed. If the metadata device is resized the pool will move back to PM_WRITE. These changes mean we never need to abort and rollback a transaction due to running out of metadata space. This is particularly important because there have been a handful of reports of data corruption against DM thin-provisioning that can all be attributed to the thin-pool having ran out of metadata space.

2018-01-17dm thin metadata: THIN_MAX_CONCURRENT_LOCKS should be 6Dennis Yang1-1/+5
For btree removal, there is a corner case that a single thread could takes 6 locks which is more than THIN_MAX_CONCURRENT_LOCKS(5) and leads to deadlock. A btree removal might eventually call rebalance_children()->rebalance3() to rebalance entries of three neighbor child nodes when shadow_spine has already acquired two write locks. In rebalance3(), it tries to shadow and acquire the write locks of all three child nodes. However, shadowing a child node requires acquiring a read lock of the original child node and a write lock of the new block. Although the read lock will be released after block shadowing, shadowing the third child node in rebalance3() could still take the sixth lock. (2 write locks for shadow_spine + 2 write locks for the first two child nodes's shadow + 1 write lock for the last child node's shadow + 1 read lock for the last child node) Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dennis Yang <dennisyang@qnap.com> Acked-by: Joe Thornber <thornber@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

2016-07-20dm thin: fix a race condition between discarding and provisioning a blockJoe Thornber1-0/+30
The discard passdown was being issued after the block was unmapped, which meant the block could be reprovisioned whilst the passdown discard was still in flight. We can only identify unshared blocks (safe to do a passdown a discard to) once they're unmapped and their ref count hits zero. Block ref counts are now used to guard against concurrent allocation of these blocks that are being discarded. So now we unmap the block, issue passdown discards, and the immediately increment ref counts for regions that have been discarded via passed down (this is safe because allocation occurs within the same thread). We then decrement ref counts once the passdown discard IO is complete -- signaling these blocks may now be allocated.

If a thin metadata operation fails the current transaction will abort, whereby causing potential for IO layers up the stack (e.g. filesystems) to have data loss. As such, set THIN_METADATA_NEEDS_CHECK_FLAG in the thin metadata's superblock which: 1) requires the user verify the thin metadata is consistent (e.g. use thin_check, etc) 2) suggests the user verify the thin data is consistent (e.g. use fsck) The only way to clear the superblock's THIN_METADATA_NEEDS_CHECK_FLAG is to run thin_repair. On metadata operation failure: abort current metadata transaction, set pool in read-only mode, and now set the needs_check flag. As part of this change, constraints are introduced or relaxed: * don't allow a pool to transition to write mode if needs_check is set * don't allow data or metadata space to be resized if needs_check is set * if a thin pool's metadata space is exhausted: the kernel will now force the user to take the pool offline for repair before the kernel will allow the metadata space to be extended.

If the user attempted to use a larger metadata device on creation they would get an error like the following: device-mapper: space map common: space map too large device-mapper: transaction manager: couldn't create metadata space map device-mapper: thin metadata: tm_create_with_sm failed device-mapper: table: 252:17: thin-pool: Error creating metadata object device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table Fix this by allowing the initial metadata space map creation to cap its size at the max number of blocks supported (DM_SM_METADATA_MAX_BLOCKS). get_metadata_dev_size() must also impose DM_SM_METADATA_MAX_BLOCKS (via THIN_METADATA_MAX_SECTORS), otherwise extending metadata would cap at THIN_METADATA_MAX_SECTORS_WARNING (which is larger than supported). Also, the calculation for THIN_METADATA_MAX_SECTORS didn't account for the sizeof the disk_bitmap_header. So the supported maximum metadata size is a bit smaller (reduced from 33423360 to 33292800 sectors). Lastly, remove the "excess space will not be used" warning message from get_metadata_dev_size(); it resulted in printing the warning multiple times. Factor out warn_if_metadata_device_too_big(), call it from pool_ctr() and maybe_resize_metadata_dev(). Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Acked-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com>
2014-02-17dm thin: avoid metadata commit if a pool's thin devices haven't changedMike Snitzer1-0/+17
Commit 905e51b ("dm thin: commit outstanding data every second") introduced a periodic commit. This commit occurs regardless of whether any thin devices have made changes. Fix the periodic commit to check if any of a pool's thin devices have changed using dm_pool_changed_this_transaction().

2014-01-07dm thin: fix discard support to a previously shared blockJoe Thornber1-0/+20
If a snapshot is created and later deleted the origin dm_thin_device's snapshotted_time will have been updated to reflect the snapshot's creation time. The 'shared' flag in the dm_thin_lookup_result struct returned from dm_thin_find_block() is an approximation based on snapshotted_time -- this is done to avoid 0(n), or worse, time complexity. In this case, the shared flag would be true. But because the 'shared' flag reflects an approximation a block can be incorrectly assumed to be shared (e.g. false positive for 'shared' because the snapshot no longer exists). This could result in discards issued to a thin device not being passed down to the pool's underlying data device. To fix this we double check that a thin block is really still in-use after a mapping is removed using dm_pool_block_is_used(). If the reference count for a block is now zero the discard is allowed to be passed down. Also add a 'definitely_not_shared' member to the dm_thin_new_mapping structure -- reflects that the 'shared' flag in the response from dm_thin_find_block() can only be held as definitive if false is returned.

2013-12-10dm thin: allow pool in read-only mode to transition to read-write modeJoe Thornber1-0/+8
A thin-pool may be in read-only mode because the pool's data or metadata space was exhausted. To allow for recovery, by adding more space to the pool, we must allow a pool to transition from PM_READ_ONLY to PM_WRITE mode. Otherwise, running out of space will render the pool permanently read-only. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
2013-05-10dm thin: generate event when metadata threshold passedJoe Thornber1-0/+14
Generate a dm event when the amount of remaining thin pool metadata space falls below a certain level. The threshold is taken to be a quarter of the size of the metadata device with a minimum threshold of 4MB.
