2009-10-16dm snapshot: allow chunk size to be less than page sizeMikulas Patocka1-16/+0
Allow the snapshot chunk size to be smaller than the page size The code is now capable of handling this due to some previous fixes and enhancements. As the page size varies between computers, prior to this patch, the chunk size of a snapshot dictated which machines could read it: Snapshots created on one machine might not be readable on another.

Multiple instances of dec_pending() can run concurrently so a lock is needed when it saves the first error code.

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.

2009-10-16md/async: don't pass a memory pointer as a page pointer.NeilBrown1-2/+2
md/raid6 passes a list of 'struct page *' to the async_tx routines, which then either DMA map them for offload, or take the page_address for CPU based calculations. For RAID6 we sometime leave 'blanks' in the list of pages. For CPU based calcs, we want to treat theses as a page of zeros. For offloaded calculations, we simply don't pass a page to the hardware. Currently the 'blanks' are encoded as a pointer to raid6_empty_zero_page. This is a 4096 byte memory region, not a 'struct page'. This is mostly handled correctly but is rather ugly. So change the code to pass and expect a NULL pointer for the blanks. When taking page_address of a page, we need to check for a NULL and in that case use raid6_empty_zero_page.

2009-10-16md: Fix handling of raid5 array which is being reshaped to fewer devices.NeilBrown2-20/+19
When a raid5 (or raid6) array is being reshaped to have fewer devices, conf->raid_disks is the latter and hence smaller number of devices. However sometimes we want to use a number which is the total number of currently required devices - the larger of the 'old' and 'new' sizes. Before we implemented reducing the number of devices, this was always 'new' i.e. ->raid_disks. Now we need max(raid_disks, previous_raid_disks) in those places. This particularly affects assembling an array that was shutdown while in the middle of a reshape to fewer devices. md.c needs a similar fix when interpreting the md metadata.

2009-10-16md/raid456: downlevel multicore operations to raid_run_opsDan Williams2-36/+51
The percpu conversion allowed a straightforward handoff of stripe processing to the async subsytem that initially showed some modest gains (+4%). However, this model is too simplistic and leads to stripes bouncing between raid5d and the async thread pool for every invocation of handle_stripe(). As reported by Holger this can fall into a pathological situation severely impacting throughput (6x performance loss). By downleveling the parallelism to raid_run_ops the pathological stripe_head bouncing is eliminated. This version still exhibits an average 11% throughput loss for: mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-q] -n 16 -l 6 echo 1024 > /sys/block/md0/md/stripe_cache_size dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048 ...but the results are at least stable and can be used as a base for further multicore experimentation.

2009-10-16md: raid1/raid10: handle allocation errors during array setup.NeilBrown2-4/+5
Both raid1 and raid10 create a mempool during startup. If the 'alloc' function for this mempool fails, unplug_slaves is called. If that happens when the pool is being initialised, unplug_slaves will try to use the 'conf' structure that isn't filled in yet, and badness will happen. So ensure that unplug_slaves doesn't get called unless we know that the conf structure if fully initialised. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2009-10-06block: Seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requests v2Nikanth Karthikesan1-6/+10
Commit a9327cac440be4d8333bba975cbbf76045096275 added seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requests. And exported the number of read and write requests in progress seperately through sysfs. But Corrado Zoccolo <czoccolo@gmail.com> reported getting strange output from "iostat -kx 2". Global values for service time and utilization were garbage. For interval values, utilization was always 100%, and service time is higher than normal. So this was reverted by commit 0f78ab9899e9d6acb09d5465def618704255963b The problem was in part_round_stats_single(), I missed the following: if (now == part->stamp) return; - if (part->in_flight) { + if (part_in_flight(part)) { __part_stat_add(cpu, part, time_in_queue, part_in_flight(part) * (now - part->stamp)); __part_stat_add(cpu, part, io_ticks, (now - part->stamp)); With this chunk included, the reported regression gets fixed.

2009-09-14block: Optimal I/O limit wrapperMartin K. Petersen1-1/+1
Implement blk_limits_io_opt() and make blk_queue_io_opt() a wrapper around it. DM needs this to avoid poking at the queue_limits directly. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

2009-09-14Seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requestsNikanth Karthikesan1-6/+10
Currently, there is a single in_flight counter measuring the number of requests in the request_queue. But some monitoring tools would like to know how many read requests and write requests are in progress. Split the current in_flight counter into two seperate counters for read and write. This information is exported as a sysfs attribute, as changing the currently available stat files would break the existing tools.

2009-09-11bio: first step in sanitizing the bio->bi_rw flag testingJens Axboe9-22/+24
Get rid of any functions that test for these bits and make callers use bio_rw_flagged() directly. Then it is at least directly apparent what variable and flag they check. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-09-10md: Fix "strchr" [drivers/md/dm-log-userspace.ko] undefined!Geert Uytterhoeven1-1/+1
Commit b8313b6da7e2e7c7f47d93d8561969a3ff9ba0ea ("dm log: remove incorrect field from userspace table output") added a call to strstr() with a single-character "needle" string parameter. Unfortunately some versions of gcc replace such calls to strstr() by calls to strchr() behind our back. This causes linking errors if strchr() is defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k): | WARNING: "strchr" [drivers/md/dm-log-userspace.ko] undefined! Avoid this by explicitly calling strchr() instead. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
