* block: fix oops in blk_queue_io_stat()Jens Axboe2009-02-022-3/+11
| | | | | | | | Some initial probe requests don't have disk->queue mapped yet, so we can't rely on a non-NULL queue in blk_queue_io_stat(). Wrap it in blk_do_io_stat(). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* cfq-iosched: Allow RT requests to pre-empt ongoing BE timesliceDivyesh Shah2009-01-301-1/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the ability to pre-empt an ongoing BE timeslice when a RT request is waiting for the current timeslice to complete. This reduces the wait time to disk for RT requests from an upper bound of 4 (current value of cfq_quantum) to 1 disk request. Applied Jens' suggeested changes to avoid the rb lookup and use !cfq_class_rt() and retested.

| * cfq-iosched: fix race between exiting queue and exiting taskJens Axboe2008-12-291-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Original patch from Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de> When a queue exits the queue lock is taken and cfq_exit_queue() would free all the cic's associated with the queue. But when a task exits, cfq_exit_io_context() gets cic one by one and then locks the associated queue to call __cfq_exit_single_io_context. It looks like between getting a cic from the ioc and locking the queue, the queue might have exited on another cpu. Fix this by rechecking the cfq_io_context queue key inside the queue lock again, and not calling into __cfq_exit_single_io_context() if somebody beat us to it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | zero is invalid for max_phys_segments, max_hw_segments, and max_segment_size. It's better to use use min_not_zero instead of min. min() works though (because the commit 0e435ac makes sure that these values are set to the default values, non zero, if a queue is initialized properly). With this patch, blk_queue_stack_limits does the almost same thing that dm's combine_restrictions_low() does. I think that it's easy to remove dm's combine_restrictions_low.

| * block: add one-hit cache for disk partition lookupJens Axboe2008-12-291-4/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | disk_map_sector_rcu() returns a partition from a sector offset, which we use for IO statistics on a per-partition basis. The lookup itself is an O(N) list lookup, where N is the number of partitions. This actually hurts performance quite a bit, even on the lower end partitions. On higher numbered partitions, it can get pretty bad. Solve this by adding a one-hit cache for partition lookup. This makes the lookup O(1) for the case where we do most IO to one partition. Even for mixed partition workloads, amortized cost is pretty close to O(1) since the natural IO batching makes the one-hit cache last for lots of IOs.

| * cfq-iosched: remove limit of dispatch depth of max 4 times quantumJens Axboe2008-12-291-6/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This basically limits the hardware queue depth to 4*quantum at any point in time, which is 16 with the default settings. As CFQ uses other means to shrink the hardware queue when necessary in the first place, there's really no need for this extra heuristic. Additionally, it ends up hurting performance in some cases.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Barrier completion had the following assumptions. * start_ordered() couldn't finish the whole sequence properly. If all actions are to be skipped, q->ordseq is set correctly but the actual completion was never triggered thus hanging the barrier request. * Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's always at least one request in the queue when drain completes. Both assumptions are true but these assumptions need to be removed to improve empty barrier implementation. This patch makes the following changes. * Make start_ordered() use blk_ordered_complete_seq() to mark skipped steps complete and notify __elv_next_request() that it should fetch the next request if the whole barrier has completed inside start_ordered(). * Make drain completion path in elv_complete_request() check whether the queue is empty.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Because barrier mode can be changed dynamically, whether barrier is supported or not can be determined only when actually issuing the barrier and there is no point in checking it earlier. Drop barrier support check in generic_make_request() and __make_request(), and update comment around the support check in blk_do_ordered(). * There is no reason to check discard support in both generic_make_request() and __make_request(). Drop the check in __make_request(). While at it, move error action block to the end of the function and add unlikely() to q existence test. * Barrier request, be it empty or not, is never passed to low level driver and thus it's meaningless to try to copy back req->sector to bio->bi_sector on error. In addition, the notion of failed sector doesn't make any sense for empty barrier to begin with. Drop the code block from __end_that_request_first().

The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer. The buffer layer can then suppress needless printks. This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun) buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the logs without this patch. During boot I see blocks of messages like " __ratelimit: 211 callbacks suppressed Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242847 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 1 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242878 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242872 " in my logs. My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC code and multipathd. This topology includes an "active" and "ghost" path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi layer messages. I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this patch for a while now on several boxes without issue. A few runs of bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup. Thanks for John Stultz for the quiet_error finalization.

Add a BLK_MIN_SG_TIMEOUT to match the existign BLK_DEFAULT_SG_TIMEOUT.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update FMODE_NDELAY before each ioctl call so that we can kill the magic FMODE_NDELAY_NOW. It would be even better to do this directly in setfl(), but for that we'd need to have FMODE_NDELAY for all files, not just block special files.

* | block: fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary maskMilan Broz2008-12-032-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask for stacked md/dm devices. When stacking devices (LVM over MD over SCSI) some of the request queue parameters are not set up correctly in some cases by default, namely max_segment_size and and seg_boundary mask. If you create MD device over SCSI, these attributes are zeroed. Problem become when there is over this mapping next device-mapper mapping - queue attributes are set in DM this way: request_queue max_segment_size seg_boundary_mask SCSI 65536 0xffffffff MD RAID1 0 0 LVM 65536 -1 (64bit) Unfortunately bio_add_page (resp. bio_phys_segments) calculates number of physical segments according to these parameters. During the generic_make_request() is segment cout recalculated and can increase bio->bi_phys_segments count over the allowed limit. (After bio_clone() in stack operation.) Thi is specially problem in CCISS driver, where it produce OOPS here BUG_ON(creq->nr_phys_segments > MAXSGENTRIES); (MAXSEGENTRIES is 31 by default.) Sometimes even this command is enough to cause oops: dd iflag=direct if=/dev/<vg>/<lv> of=/dev/null bs=128000 count=10 This command generates bios with 250 sectors, allocated in 32 4k-pages (last page uses only 1024 bytes). For LVM layer, it allocates bio with 31 segments (still OK for CCISS), unfortunatelly on lower layer it is recalculated to 32 segments and this violates CCISS restriction and triggers BUG_ON(). The patch tries to fix it by: * initializing attributes above in queue request constructor blk_queue_make_request() * make sure that blk_queue_stack_limits() inherits setting (DM uses its own function to set the limits because it blk_queue_stack_limits() was introduced later. It should probably switch to use generic stack limit function too.) * sets the default seg_boundary value in one place (blkdev.h) * use this mask as default in DM (instead of -1, which differs in 64bit) Bugs related to this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471639 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8672 Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com> Cc: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Cc: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Miller <mike.miller@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* | block: internal dequeue shouldn't start timerTejun Heo2008-12-033-10/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blkdev_dequeue_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are equivalent and both start the timeout timer. Barrier code dequeues the original barrier request but doesn't passes the request itself to lower level driver, only broken down proxy requests; however, as the original barrier code goes through the same dequeue path and timeout timer is started on it. If barrier sequence takes long enough, this timer expires but the low level driver has no idea about this request and oops follows. Timeout timer shouldn't have been started on the original barrier request as it never goes through actual IO. This patch unexports elv_dequeue_request(), which has no external user anyway, and makes it operate on elevator proper w/o adding the timer and make blkdev_dequeue_request() call elv_dequeue_request() and add timer. Internal users which don't pass the request to driver - barrier code and end_that_request_last() - are converted to use elv_dequeue_request().
