The raid5 sync_request() processing calls handle_stripe() within the context of the resync-thread. The resync-thread issues the first set of read requests and this adds execution latency and slows down the scheduling of the next sync_request(). The current rebuild/resync speed of raid5 is not much faster than what rotational HDDs can sustain. Testing the following patch on a 6-drive array, I can increase the rebuild speed from 100 MB/s to 175 MB/s. The sync_request() now just sets STRIPE_HANDLE and releases the stripe. This creates some more parallelism between the resync-thread and raid5 kernel daemon. Signed-off-by: Eivind Sarto <esarto@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

A chunk aligned read increases counter active_aligned_reads and decreases it after sub-device handle it successfully. But when a read error occurs, the read redispatched by raid5d, and the active_aligned_reads will not be decreased until we can grab a stripe head in retry_aligned_read. Now suppose, a barrier io comes, set conf->quiesce to 2, and wait until both active_stripes and active_aligned_reads are zero. The retried chunk aligned read gets stuck at get_active_stripe waiting until conf->quiesce becomes 0. Retry_aligned_read and barrier io are waiting each other now. One possible solution is that we ignore conf->quiesce, let the retried aligned read finish. I reproduced this deadlock and test this patch on centos6.0 Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

The stripe cache has two goals: 1. cache data, so next time if data can be found in stripe cache, disk access can be avoided. 2. stable data. data is copied from bio to stripe cache and calculated parity. data written to disk is from stripe cache, so if upper layer changes bio data, data written to disk isn't impacted. In my environment, I can guarantee 2 will not happen. And BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES can guarantee 2 too. For 1, it's not common too. block plug mechanism will dispatch a bunch of sequentail small requests together. And since I'm using SSD, I'm using small chunk size. It's rare case stripe cache is really useful. So I'd like to avoid the copy from bio to stripe cache and it's very helpful for performance. In my 1M randwrite tests, avoid the copy can increase the performance more than 30%. Of course, this shouldn't be enabled by default. It's reported enabling BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES can harm some workloads before, so I added an option to control it.

The (lockless) release_list reduces lock contention, but there is excessive queueing and dequeuing of stripes on this list. A stripe will currently be queued on the release_list with a stripe reference count > 1. This can cause the raid5 kernel thread(s) to dequeue the stripe and decrement the refcount without doing any other useful processing of the stripe. The are two cases when the stripe can be put on the release_list multiple times before it is actually handled by the kernel thread(s). 1) make_request() activates the stripe processing in 4k increments. When a write request is large enough to span multiple chunks of a stripe_head, the first 4k chunk adds the stripe to the plug list. The next 4k chunk that is processed for the same stripe puts the stripe on the release_list with a refcount=2. This can cause the kernel thread to process and decrement the stripe before the stripe us unplugged, which again will put it back on the release_list. 2) Whenever IO is scheduled on a stripe (pre-read and/or write), the stripe refcount is set to the number of active IO (for each chunk). The stripe is released as each IO complete, and can be queued and dequeued multiple times on the release_list, until its refcount finally reached zero. This simple patch will ensure a stripe is only queued on the release_list when its refcount=1 and is ready to be handled by the kernel thread(s). I added some instrumentation to raid5 and counted the number of times striped were queued on the release_list for a variety of write IO sizes. Without this patch the number of times stripes got queued on the release_list was 100-500% higher than with the patch. The excess queuing will increase with the IO size. The patch also improved throughput by 5-10%. Signed-off-by: Eivind Sarto <esarto@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

If it is found that we need to pre-read some blocks before a write can succeed, we normally set STRIPE_DELAYED and don't actually perform the read until STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE subsequently gets set. However for a degraded RAID6 we currently perform the reads as soon as we see that a write is pending. This significantly hurts throughput. So: - when handle_stripe_dirtying find a block that it wants on a device that is failed, set STRIPE_DELAY, instead of doing nothing, and - when fetch_block detects that a read might be required to satisfy a write, only perform the read if STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE is set, and if we would actually need to read something to complete the write. This also helps RAID5, though less often as RAID5 supports a read-modify-write cycle. For RAID5 the read is performed too early only if the write is not a full 4K aligned write (i.e. no an R5_OVERWRITE). Also clean up a couple of horrible bits of formatting.

Commit 8313b8e5 md: fix problem when adding device to read-only array with bitmap. added a called to md_reap_sync_thread() which cause a reshape thread to be interrupted (in particular, it could cause md_thread() to never even call md_do_sync()). However it didn't set MD_RECOVERY_INTR so ->finish_reshape() would not know that the reshape didn't complete. This only happens when mddev->ro is set and normally reshape threads don't run in that situation. But raid5 and raid10 can start a reshape thread during "run" is the array is in the middle of a reshape. They do this even if ->ro is set. So it is best to set MD_RECOVERY_INTR before abortingg the sync thread, just in case. Though it rare for this to trigger a problem it can cause data corruption because the reshape isn't finished properly. So it is suitable for any stable which the offending commit was applied to.

If mddev->ro is set, md_to_sync will (correctly) abort. However in that case MD_RECOVERY_INTR isn't set. If a RESHAPE had been requested, then ->finish_reshape() will be called and it will think the reshape was successful even though nothing happened. Normally a resync will not be requested if ->ro is set, but if an array is stopped while a reshape is on-going, then when the array is started, the reshape will be restarted. If the array is also set read-only at this point, the reshape will instantly appear to success, resulting in data corruption. Consequently, this patch is suitable for any -stable kernel.

The mapping from OF device IDs to platform device IDs is wrong. TYPE_NCPXXWB473 is 0, TYPE_NCPXXWL333 is 1, so ntc_thermistor_id[TYPE_NCPXXWB473] is { "ncp15wb473", TYPE_NCPXXWB473 } while ntc_thermistor_id[TYPE_NCPXXWL333] is { "ncp18wb473", TYPE_NCPXXWB473 }. So the name is wrong for all but the "ntc,ncp15wb473" entry, and the type is wrong for the "ntc,ncp15wl333" entry. So map the entries by index, it is neither elegant nor robust but at least it is correct.

In commit 9e8269de, support was added for ntc_thermistor devices being declared in the device tree and implemented on top of IIO. With that change, a dependency was added to the ntc_thermistor driver: depends on (!OF && !IIO) || (OF && IIO) This construct has the drawback that the driver can no longer be selected when OF is set and IIO isn't, nor when IIO is set and OF is not. This is a regression for the original users of the driver. As the new code depends on IIO and is useless without OF, include it only if both are enabled, and set the dependencies accordingly. This is clearer, more simple and more correct.

When a memory error happens on an in-use page or (free and in-use) hugepage, the victim page is isolated with its refcount set to one. When you try to unpoison it later, unpoison_memory() calls put_page() for it twice in order to bring the page back to free page pool (buddy or free hugepage list). However, if another memory error occurs on the page which we are unpoisoning, memory_failure() returns without releasing the refcount which was incremented in the same call at first, which results in memory leak and unconsistent num_poisoned_pages statistics. This patch fixes it.

This however caused another NULL ptr dereference during early boot when loopback kernel thread splices to tmpfs as reported by Stephan Kulow: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000360 IP: get_mem_cgroup_from_mm.isra.42+0x2b/0x60 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: btrfs dm_multipath dm_mod scsi_dh multipath raid10 raid456 async_raid6_recov async_memcpy async_pq raid6_pq async_xor xor async_tx raid1 raid0 md_mod parport_pc parport nls_utf8 isofs usb_storage iscsi_ibft iscsi_boot_sysfs arc4 ecb fan thermal nfs lockd fscache nls_iso8859_1 nls_cp437 sg st hid_generic usbhid af_packet sunrpc sr_mod cdrom ata_generic uhci_hcd virtio_net virtio_blk ehci_hcd usbcore ata_piix floppy processor button usb_common virtio_pci virtio_ring virtio edd squashfs loop ppa] CPU: 0 PID: 97 Comm: loop1 Not tainted 3.15.0-rc5-5-default #1 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Call Trace: __mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin+0x40/0xe0 mem_cgroup_charge_file+0x8b/0xd0 shmem_getpage_gfp+0x66b/0x7b0 shmem_file_splice_read+0x18f/0x430 splice_direct_to_actor+0xa2/0x1c0 do_lo_receive+0x5a/0x60 [loop] loop_thread+0x298/0x720 [loop] kthread+0xc6/0xe0 ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 Also Branimir Maksimovic reported the following oops which is tiggered for the swapcache charge path from the accounting code for kernel threads: CPU: 1 PID: 160 Comm: kworker/u8:5 Tainted: P OE 3.15.0-rc5-core2-custom #159 Hardware name: System manufacturer System Product Name/MAXIMUSV GENE, BIOS 1903 08/19/2013 task: ffff880404e349b0 ti: ffff88040486a000 task.ti: ffff88040486a000 RIP: get_mem_cgroup_from_mm.isra.42+0x2b/0x60 Call Trace: __mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin+0x45/0xf0 mem_cgroup_charge_file+0x9c/0xe0 shmem_getpage_gfp+0x62c/0x770 shmem_write_begin+0x38/0x40 generic_perform_write+0xc5/0x1c0 __generic_file_aio_write+0x1d1/0x3f0 generic_file_aio_write+0x4f/0xc0 do_sync_write+0x5a/0x90 do_acct_process+0x4b1/0x550 acct_process+0x6d/0xa0 do_exit+0x827/0xa70 kthread+0xc3/0xf0 This patch fixes the issue by reintroducing mm check into get_mem_cgroup_from_mm. We could do the same trick in __mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin as we do for the regular page cache path but it is not worth troubles. The check is not that expensive and it is better to have get_mem_cgroup_from_mm more robust.

MADV_WILLNEED currently does not read swapped out shmem pages back in. Commit 0cd6144a ("mm + fs: prepare for non-page entries in page cache radix trees") made find_get_page() filter exceptional radix tree entries but failed to convert all find_get_page() callers that WANT exceptional entries over to find_get_entry(). One of them is shmem swap readahead in madvise, which now skips over any swap-out records. Convert it to find_get_entry().

In some testing I ran today (some fio jobs that spread over two nodes), we end up spending 40% of the time in filemap_check_errors(). That smells fishy. Looking further, this is basically what happens: blkdev_aio_read() generic_file_aio_read() filemap_write_and_wait_range() if (!mapping->nr_pages) filemap_check_errors() and filemap_check_errors() always attempts two test_and_clear_bit() on the mapping flags, thus dirtying it for every single invocation. The patch below tests each of these bits before clearing them, avoiding this issue. In my test case (4-socket box), performance went from 1.7M IOPS to 4.0M IOPS.

For handling a free hugepage in memory failure, the race will happen if another thread hwpoisoned this hugepage concurrently. So we need to check PageHWPoison instead of !PageHWPoison. If hwpoison_filter(p) returns true or a race happens, then we need to unlock_page(hpage).

The 'renameat2()' system call was incorrectly added as a ENTRY_COMP() in the parisc system call table by commit 18e480aa ("parisc: add renameat2 syscall"). That causes a link-time error due to there not being any compat version of that system call: arch/parisc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table': (.rodata+0xad0): undefined reference to `compat_sys_renameat2' make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 Easily fixed by marking the system call as being the same for compat as for native by using ENTRY_SAME() instead of ENTRY_COMP().
