dm mpath: support discard

Enable discard support in the DM multipath target.

This discard support depends on a few discard-specific fixes to the
block layer's request stacking driver methods.

Discard requests are optional so don't allow a failed discard to trigger
path failures.  If there is a real problem with a given path the
barriers associated with the discard (either before or after the
discard) will cause path failure.  That said, unconditionally passing
discard failures up the stack is not ideal.  This must be fixed once DM
has more information about the nature of the underlying storage failure.

14 years agodm: do not initialise full request queue when bio based

dm: do not initialise full request queue when bio based

Change bio-based mapped devices no longer to have a fully initialized
request_queue (request_fn, elevator, etc).  This means bio-based DM
devices no longer register elevator sysfs attributes ('iosched/' tree
or 'scheduler' other than "none").

In contrast, a request-based DM device will continue to have a full
request_queue and will register elevator sysfs attributes.  Therefore
a user can determine a DM device's type by checking if elevator sysfs
attributes exist.

First allocate a minimalist request_queue structure for a DM device
(needed for both bio and request-based DM).

Initialization of a full request_queue is deferred until it is known
that the DM device is request-based, at the end of the table load
sequence.

Factor DM device's request_queue initialization:
- common to both request-based and bio-based into dm_init_md_queue().
- specific to request-based into dm_init_request_based_queue().

The md->type_lock mutex is used to protect md->queue, in addition to
md->type, during table_load().

A DM device's first table_load will establish the immutable md->type.
But md->queue initialization, based on md->type, may fail at that time
(because blk_init_allocated_queue cannot allocate memory).  Therefore
any subsequent table_load must (re)try dm_setup_md_queue independently of
establishing md->type.

dm: separate device deletion from dm_put

This patch separates the device deletion code from dm_put()
to make sure the deletion happens in the process context.

By this patch, device deletion always occurs in an ioctl (process)
context and dm_put() can be called in interrupt context.
As a result, the request-based dm's bad dm_put() usage pointed out
by Mikulas below disappears.
    http://marc.info/?l=dm-devel&m=126699981019735&w=2

Without this patch, I confirmed there is a case to crash the system:
    dm_put() => dm_table_destroy() => vfree() => BUG_ON(in_interrupt())

Some more backgrounds and details:
In request-based dm, a device opener can remove a mapped_device
while the last request is still completing, because bios in the last
request complete first and then the device opener can close and remove
the mapped_device before the last request completes:
  CPU0                                          CPU1
  =================================================================
  <<INTERRUPT>>
  blk_end_request_all(clone_rq)
    blk_update_request(clone_rq)
      bio_endio(clone_bio) == end_clone_bio
        blk_update_request(orig_rq)
          bio_endio(orig_bio)
                                                <<I/O completed>>
                                                dm_blk_close()
                                                dev_remove()
                                                  dm_put(md)
                                                    <<Free md>>
   blk_finish_request(clone_rq)
     ....
     dm_end_request(clone_rq)
       free_rq_clone(clone_rq)
       blk_end_request_all(orig_rq)
       rq_completed(md)

So request-based dm used dm_get()/dm_put() to hold md for each I/O
until its request completion handling is fully done.
However, the final dm_put() can call the device deletion code which
must not be run in interrupt context and may cause kernel panic.

To solve the problem, this patch moves the device deletion code,
dm_destroy(), to predetermined places that is actually deleting
the mapped_device in ioctl (process) context, and changes dm_put()
just to decrement the reference count of the mapped_device.
By this change, dm_put() can be used in any context and the symmetric
model below is introduced:
    dm_create():  create a mapped_device
    dm_destroy(): destroy a mapped_device
    dm_get():     increment the reference count of a mapped_device
    dm_put():     decrement the reference count of a mapped_device

dm_destroy() waits for all references of the mapped_device to disappear,
then deletes the mapped_device.

dm_destroy() uses active waiting with msleep(1), since deleting
the mapped_device isn't performance-critical task.
And since at this point, nobody opens the mapped_device and no new
reference will be taken, the pending counts are just for racing
completing activity and will eventually decrease to zero.

For the unlikely case of the forced module unload, dm_destroy_immediate(),
which doesn't wait and forcibly deletes the mapped_device, is also
introduced and used in dm_hash_remove_all().  Otherwise, "rmmod -f"
may be stuck and never return.
And now, because the mapped_device is deleted at this point, subsequent
accesses to the mapped_device may cause NULL pointer references.

14 years agodm: prevent access to md being deleted

dm: prevent access to md being deleted

This patch prevents access to mapped_device which is being deleted.

Currently, even after a mapped_device has been removed from the hash,
it could be accessed through idr_find() using minor number.
That could cause a race and NULL pointer reference below:
  CPU0                          CPU1

  dev_remove(param)

14 years agokfifo: fix kfifo miss use of nozami.c
Stefani Seibold [Wed, 11 Aug 2010 01:03:37 +0000 (18:03 -0700)]
kfifo: fix kfifo miss use of nozami.c

There are different types of a fifo which can not handled in C without a
lot of overhead.  So i decided to write the API as a set of macros, which
is the only way to do a kind of template meta programming without C++.
This macros handles the different types of fifos in a transparent way.

There are a lot of benefits:

- Compile time handling of the different fifo types
- Better performance (a save put or get of an integer does only generate
  9 assembly instructions on a x86)
- Type save
- Cleaner interface, the additional kfifo_..._rec() functions are gone
- Easier to use
- Less error prone
- Different types of fifos: it is now possible to define a int fifo or
  any other type. See below for an example.
- Smaller footprint for none byte type fifos
- No need of creating a second hidden variable, like in the old DEFINE_KFIFO

The API was not changed.

There are now real in place fifos where the data space is a part of the
structure.  The fifo needs now 20 byte plus the fifo space.  Dynamic
assigned or allocated create a little bit more code.

Most of the macros code will be optimized away and simple generate a
function call.  Only the really small one generates inline code.

Additionally you can now create fifos for any data type, not only the
"unsigned char" byte streamed fifos.

There is also a new kfifo_put and kfifo_get function, to handle a single
element in a fifo.  This macros generates inline code, which is lit bit
larger but faster.

I know that this kind of macros are very sophisticated and not easy to
maintain.  But i have all tested and it works as expected.  I analyzed the
output of the compiler and for the x86 the code is as good as hand written
assembler code.  For the byte stream fifo the generate code is exact the
same as with the current kfifo implementation.  For all other types of
fifos the code is smaller before, because the interface is easier to use.

The main goal was to provide an API which is very intuitive, save and easy
to use.  So linux will get now a powerful fifo API which provides all what
a developer needs.  This will save in the future a lot of kernel space,
since there is no need to write an own implementation.  Most of the device
driver developers need a fifo, and also deep kernel development will gain
benefit from this API.

Here are the results of the text section usage:

Example 1:
                        kfifo_put/_get  kfifo_in/out    current kfifo
dynamic allocated       0x000002a8      0x00000291      0x00000299
in place                0x00000291      0x0000026e      0x00000273

kfifo.c                 new             old
text section size       0x00000be5      0x000008b2

As you can see, kfifo_put/kfifo_get creates a little bit more code than
kfifo_in/kfifo_out, but it is much faster (the code is inline).

The code is complete hand crafted and optimized.  The text section size is
as small as possible.  You get all the fifo handling in only 3 kb.  This
includes type safe fix size records, dynamic records and DMA handling.

This should be the final version. All requested features are implemented.

Note: Most features of this API doesn't have any users.  All functions
which are not used in the next 9 months will be removed.  So, please adapt
your drivers and other sources as soon as possible to the new API and post
it.

This are the features which are currently not used in the kernel:

kfifo_to_user()
kfifo_from_user()
kfifo_dma_....() macros
kfifo_esize()
kfifo_recsize()
kfifo_put()
kfifo_get()

The fixed size record elements, exclude "unsigned char" fifo's and the
variable size records fifo's

This patch:

User of the kernel fifo should never bypass the API and directly access
the fifo structure.  Otherwise it will be very hard to maintain the API.

scsi: 53c700: remove dma_is_consistent usage

BUG_ON(!dma_is_consistent(hostdata->dev, pScript) && L1_CACHE_BYTES < dma_get_cache_alignment());

dma_get_cache_alignment() on sysmtes that can not allocate coherent memory
(some old systems can't).

James Bottomley exmplained that this is necesary because the driver packs the
set of mailboxes into a single coherent area and separates the different
usages by a L1 cache stride.  So it's fatal if the dma

14 years agomemcg: avoid css_get()
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki [Wed, 11 Aug 2010 01:03:02 +0000 (18:03 -0700)]
memcg: avoid css_get()

Now, memory cgroup increments css(cgroup subsys state)'s reference count
per a charged page.  And the reference count is kept until the page is
uncharged.  But this has 2 bad effect.

 1. Because css_get/put calls atomic_inc()/dec, heavy call of them
    on large smp will not scale well.
 2. Because css's refcnt cannot be in a state as "ready-to-release",
    cgroup's notify_on_release handler can't work with memcg.
 3. css's refcnt is atomic_t, it means smaller than 32bit. Maybe too small.

This has been a problem since the 1st merge of memcg.

This is a trial to remove css's refcnt per a page. Even if we remove
refcnt, pre_destroy() does enough synchronization as
  - check res->usage == 0.
  - check no pages on LRU.

This patch removes css's refcnt per page.  Even after this patch, at the
1st look, it seems css_get() is still called in try_charge().

But the logic is.

  - If a memcg of mm->owner is cached one, consume_stock() will work.
    At success, return immediately.
  - If consume_stock returns false, css_get() is called and go to
    slow path which may be blocked. At the end of slow path,
    css_put() is called and restart from the start if necessary.

So, in the fast path, we don't call css_get() and can avoid access to
shared counter. This patch can make the most possible case fast.

14 years agomemcg: clean up try_charge main loop

memcg: clean up try_charge main loop

mem_cgroup_try_charge() has a big loop in it and seems to be hard to read.
 Most of routines are for slow path.  This patch moves codes out from the
loop and make it clear what's done.

Summary:
 - refactoring a function to detect a memcg is under acccount move or not.
 - refactoring a function to wait for the end of moving task acct.
 - refactoring a main loop('s slow path) as a function and make it clear
   why we retry or quit by return code.
 - add fatal_signal_pending() check for bypassing charge loops.

memcg: remove experimental from swap account config

It's 11 months since we changed swap_map[] to indicates SWAP_HAS_CACHE.
Since that, memcg's swap accounting has been very stable and it seems
it can be maintained.

So, I'd like to remove EXPERIMENTAL from the config.

14 years agoblkdev: cgroup whitelist permission fix
Chris Wright [Wed, 11 Aug 2010 01:02:55 +0000 (18:02 -0700)]
blkdev: cgroup whitelist permission fix

The cgroup device whitelist code gets confused when trying to grant
permission to a disk partition that is not currently open.  Part of
blkdev_open() includes __blkdev_get() on the whole disk.

Basically, the only ways to reliably allow a cgroup access to a partition
on a block device when using the whitelist are to 1) also give it access
to the whole block device or 2) make sure the partition is already open in
a different context.

The patch avoids the cgroup check for the whole disk case when opening a
partition.
