* dm io: remove struct paddingRichard Kennedy2008-07-21
| | | | | | | | Rearrange struct dm_io. Shrinks size from 40 -> 32 allowing more objects/slab. Signed-off-by: Richard Kennedy <richard@rsk.demon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
* dm: remove md argument from specific_minorFrederik Deweerdt2008-04-25
| | | | | | | | | | | The small patch below: - Removes the unused md argument from both specific_minor() and next_free_minor() - Folds kmalloc + memset(0) into a single kzalloc call in alloc_dev() This has been compile tested on x86.

* dm kcopyd: remove redundant client countingMikulas Patocka2008-04-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | Remove client counting code that is no longer needed. Initialization and destruction is made globally from dm_init and dm_exit and is not based on client counts. Initialization allocates only one empty slab cache, so there is no negative impact from performing the initialization always, regardless of whether some client uses kcopyd or not.

* dm: split dm_suspend io_lock hold into twoMilan Broz2008-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Change io_locking to allow processing flush in separate thread. Because we have DMF_BLOCK_IO already set, any possible new ios are queued in dm_requests now.

* dm: table detect io beyond deviceJun'ichi Nomura2007-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a panic on shrinking a DM device if there is outstanding I/O to the part of the device that is being removed. (Normally this doesn't happen - a filesystem would be resized first, for example.) The bug is that __clone_and_map() assumes dm_table_find_target() always returns a valid pointer. It may fail if a bio arrives from the block layer but its target sector is no longer included in the DM btree. This patch appends an empty entry to table->targets[] which will be returned by a lookup beyond the end of the device. After calling dm_table_find_target(), __clone_and_map() and target_message() check for this condition using dm_target_is_valid(). Sample test script to trigger oops:

* dm: fix thaw_bdevJun'ichi Nomura2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bd_mount_sem counter corruption bug in device-mapper. thaw_bdev() should be called only when freeze_bdev() was called for the device. Otherwise, thaw_bdev() will up bd_mount_sem and corrupt the semaphore counter. struct block_device with the corrupted semaphore may remain in slab cache and be reused later. Attached patch will fix it by calling unlock_fs() instead. unlock_fs() will determine whether it should call thaw_bdev() by checking the device is frozen or not. Easy reproducer is: #!/bin/sh while [ 1 ]; do dmsetup --notable create a dmsetup --nolockfs suspend a dmsetup remove a done It's not easy to see the effect of corrupted semaphore. So I have tested with putting printk below in bdev_alloc_inode(): if (atomic_read(&ei->bdev.bd_mount_sem.count) != 1) printk(KERN_DEBUG "Incorrect semaphore count = %d (%p)\n", atomic_read(&ei->bdev.bd_mount_sem.count), &ei->bdev); Without the patch, I saw something like: Incorrect semaphore count = 17 (f2ab91c0) With the patch, the message didn't appear. The bug was introduced in 2.6.16 with this bug fix: commit d9dde59ba03095e526640988c0fedd75e93bc8b7 Date: Fri Feb 24 13:04:24 2006 -0800 [PATCH] dm: missing bdput/thaw_bdev at removal Need to unfreeze and release bdev otherwise the bdev inode with inconsistent state is reused later and cause problem. and backported to 2.6.15.5. It occurs only in free_dev(), which is called only when the dm device is removed. The buggy code is executed only if md->suspended_bdev is non-NULL and that can happen only when the device was suspended without noflush.

* [BLOCK] Don't pin lots of memory in mempoolsJens Axboe2007-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we scale the mempool sizes depending on memory installed in the machine, except for the bio pool itself which sits at a fixed 256 entry pre-allocation. There's really no point in "optimizing" this OOM path, we just need enough preallocated to make progress. A single unit is enough, lets scale it down to 2 just to be on the safe side.

* [PATCH] dm-multipath: fix stall on noflush suspend/resumeJun'ichi Nomura2007-01-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow noflush suspend/resume of device-mapper device only for the case where the device size is unchanged. Otherwise, dm-multipath devices can stall when resumed if noflush was used when suspending them, all paths have failed and queue_if_no_path is set. Explanation: 1. Something is doing fsync() on the block dev, holding inode->i_sem 2. The fsync write is blocked by all-paths-down and queue_if_no_path 3. Someone requests to suspend the dm device with noflush. Pending writes are left in queue. 4. In the middle of dm_resume(), __bind() tries to get inode->i_sem to do __set_size() and waits forever. 'noflush suspend' is a new device-mapper feature introduced in early 2.6.20. So I hope the fix being included before 2.6.20 is released. Example of reproducer: 1. Create a multipath device by dmsetup 2. Fail all paths during mkfs 3. Do dmsetup suspend --noflush and load new map with healthy paths 4.

* [PATCH] dm: suspend: add noflush pushbackKiyoshi Ueda2006-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In device-mapper I/O is sometimes queued within targets for later processing. For example the multipath target can be configured to store I/O when no paths are available instead of returning it -EIO. This patch allows the device-mapper core to instruct a target to transfer the contents of any such in-target queue back into the core. This frees up the resources used by the target so the core can replace that target with an alternative one and then resend the I/O to it. Without this patch the only way to change the target in such circumstances involves returning the I/O with an error back to the filesystem/application. In the multipath case, this patch will let us add new paths for existing I/O to try after all the existing paths have failed. DMF_NOFLUSH_SUSPENDING ---------------------- If the DM_NOFLUSH_FLAG ioctl option is specified at suspend time, the DMF_NOFLUSH_SUSPENDING flag is set in md->flags during dm_suspend(). It is always cleared before dm_suspend() returns. The flag must be visible while the target is flushing pending I/Os so it is set before presuspend where the flush starts and unset after the wait for md->pending where the flush ends. Target drivers can check this flag by calling dm_noflush_suspending(). DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE / DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE ----------------------------------- A target's map() function can now return DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE to request the device mapper core queue the bio. Similarly, a target's end_io() function can return DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE to request the same. This has been labelled 'pushback'. The __map_bio() and clone_endio() functions in the core treat these return values as errors and call dec_pending() to end the I/O. dec_pending ----------- dec_pending() saves the pushback request in struct dm_io->error. Once all the split clones have ended, dec_pending() will put the original bio on the md->pushback list. Note that this supercedes any I/O errors. It is possible for the suspend with DM_NOFLUSH_FLAG to be aborted while in progress (e.g. by user interrupt). dec_pending() checks for this and returns -EIO if it happened. pushdback list and pushback_lock -------------------------------- The bio is queued on md->pushback temporarily in dec_pending(), and after all pending I/Os return, md->pushback is merged into md->deferred in dm_suspend() for re-issuing at resume time. md->pushback_lock protects md->pushback. The lock should be held with irq disabled because dec_pending() can be called from interrupt context. Queueing bios to md->pushback in dec_pending() must be done atomically with the check for DMF_NOFLUSH_SUSPENDING flag. So md->pushback_lock is held when checking the flag. Otherwise dec_pending() may queue a bio to md->pushback after the interrupted dm_suspend() flushes md->pushback. Then the bio would be left in md->pushback. Flag setting in dm_suspend() can be done without md->pushback_lock because the flag is checked only after presuspend and the set value is already made visible via the target's presuspend function. The flag can be checked without md->pushback_lock (e.g. the first part of the dec_pending() or target drivers), because the flag is checked again with md->pushback_lock held when the bio is really queued to md->pushback as described above. So even if the flag is cleared after the lockless checkings, the bio isn't left in md->pushback but returned to applications with -EIO. Other notes on the current patch -------------------------------- - md->pushback is added to the struct mapped_device instead of using md->deferred directly because md->io_lock which protects md->deferred is rw_semaphore and can't be used in interrupt context like dec_pending(), and md->io_lock protects the DMF_BLOCK_IO flag of md->flags too. - Don't issue lock_fs() in dm_suspend() if the DM_NOFLUSH_FLAG ioctl option is specified, because I/Os generated by lock_fs() would be pushed back and never return if there were no valid devices. - If an error occurs in dm_suspend() after the DMF_NOFLUSH_SUSPENDING flag is set, md->pushback must be flushed because I/Os may be queued to the list already. (flush_and_out label in dm_suspend()) Test results ------------ I have tested using multipath target with the next patch. The following tests are for regression/compatibility: - I/Os succeed when valid paths exist; - I/Os fail when there are no valid paths and queue_if_no_path is not set; - I/Os are queued in the multipath target when there are no valid paths and queue_if_no_path is set; - The queued I/Os above fail when suspend is issued without the DM_NOFLUSH_FLAG ioctl option. I/Os spanning 2 multipath targets also fail. The following tests are for the normal code path of new pushback feature: - Queued I/Os in the multipath target are flushed from the target but don't return when suspend is issued with the DM_NOFLUSH_FLAG ioctl option; - The I/Os above are queued in the multipath target again when resume is issued without path recovery; - The I/Os above succeed when resume is issued after path recovery or table load; - Queued I/Os in the multipath target succeed when resume is issued with the DM_NOFLUSH_FLAG ioctl option after table load. I/Os spanning 2 multipath targets also succeed. The following tests are for the error paths of the new pushback feature: - When the bdget_disk() fails in dm_suspend(), the DMF_NOFLUSH_SUSPENDING flag is cleared and I/Os already queued to the pushback list are flushed properly. - When suspend with the DM_NOFLUSH_FLAG ioctl option is interrupted, o I/Os which had already been queued to the pushback list at the time don't return, and are re-issued at resume time; o I/Os which hadn't been returned at the time return with EIO.

* [PATCH] dm: map and endio return code clarificationKiyoshi Ueda2006-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tighten the use of return values from the target map and end_io functions. Values of 2 and above are now explictly reserved for future use. There are no existing targets using such values. The patch has no effect on existing behaviour. o Reserve return values of 2 and above from target map functions. Any positive value currently indicates "mapping complete", but all existing drivers use the value 1. We now make that a requirement so we can assign new meaning to higher values in future. The new definition of return values from target map functions is: < 0 : error = 0 : The target will handle the io (DM_MAPIO_SUBMITTED). = 1 : Mapping completed (DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED). > 1 : Reserved (undefined). Previously this was the same as '= 1'. o Reserve return values of 2 and above from target end_io functions for similar reasons. DM_ENDIO_INCOMPLETE is introduced for a return value of 1. Test results: I have tested by using the multipath target. I/Os succeed when valid paths exist. I/Os are queued in the multipath target when there are no valid paths and queue_if_no_path is set. I/Os fail when there are no valid paths and queue_if_no_path is not set.

* [PATCH] dm: use private biosetsStefan Bader2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found a problem within device-mapper that occurs in low-mem situations. It was found using a mirror target but I think in theory it would hit any setup that stacks device-mapper devices (like LVM on top of multipath). Since device-mapper core uses the common fs_bioset in clone_bio(), and a private, but still global, bio_set in split_bvec() it is possible that the filesystem and the first level target successfully get bios but the lower level target doesn't because there is no more memory and the pool was drained by upper layers. So the remapping will be stuck forever. To solve this device-mapper core needs to use a private bio_set for each device.

* [PATCH] dm table: add target preresumeMilan Broz2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a target preresume hook. It is called before the targets are resumed and if it returns an error the resume gets cancelled. The crypt target will use this to indicate that it is unable to process I/O because no encryption key has been supplied.

* [PATCH] dm: add uevent change event on resumeHannes Reinecke2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Device-mapper devices are not accessible until a 'resume' ioctl has been issued. For userspace to find out when this happens we need to generate an uevent for udev to take appropriate action. As discussed at OLS we should send 'change' events for 'resume'. We can think of no useful purpose served by also having 'suspend' events.

* [PATCH] dm: prevent removal if openAlasdair G Kergon2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you misuse the device-mapper interface (or there's a bug in your userspace tools) it's possible to end up with 'unlinked' mapped devices that cannot be removed until you reboot (along with uninterruptible processes). This patch prevents you from removing a device that is still open. It introduces dm_lock_for_deletion() which is called when a device is about to be removed to ensure that nothing has it open and nothing further can open it. It uses a private open_count for this which also lets us remove one of the problematic bdget_disk() calls elsewhere.

* [PATCH] dm: add module ref countingJeff Mahoney2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reference counting on dm-mod is zero if no mapped devices are open. This is incorrect, and can lead to an oops if the module is unloaded while mapped devices exist. This patch claims a reference to the module whenever a device is created, and drops it again when the device is freed. Devices must be removed before dm-mod is unloaded.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a chicken and egg problem between the block layer and dm in which the gendisk associated with a mapping keeps a reference-less pointer to the mapped_device. This patch uses a new flag DMF_FREEING to indicate when the mapped_device is no longer valid.
