If a bcache device is configured to writeback mode, current code does not handle write I/O errors on backing devices properly. In writeback mode, write request is written to cache device, and latter being flushed to backing device. If I/O failed when writing from cache device to the backing device, bcache code just ignores the error and upper layer code is NOT noticed that the backing device is broken. This patch tries to handle backing device failure like how the cache device failure is handled, - Add a error counter 'io_errors' and error limit 'error_limit' in struct cached_dev. Add another io_disable to struct cached_dev to disable I/Os on the problematic backing device. - When I/O error happens on backing device, increase io_errors counter. And if io_errors reaches error_limit, set cache_dev->io_disable to true, and stop the bcache device. The result is, if backing device is broken of disconnected, and I/O errors reach its error limit, backing device will be disabled and the associated bcache device will be removed from system. Changelog: v2: remove "bcache: " prefix in pr_error(), and use correct name string to print out bcache device gendisk name. v1: indeed this is new added in v2 patch set.

In order to catch I/O error of backing device, a separate bi_end_io call back is required. Then a per backing device counter can record I/O errors number and retire the backing device if the counter reaches a per backing device I/O error limit. This patch adds backing_request_endio() to bcache backing device I/O code path, this is a preparation for further complicated backing device failure handling. So far there is no real code logic change, I make this change a separate patch to make sure it is stable and reliable for further work. Changelog: v2: Fix code comments typo, remove a redundant bch_writeback_add() line added in v4 patch set. v1: indeed this is new added in this patch set.

In bch_mca_scan(), There are some confusion and logical error in the use of loop variables. In this patch, we clarify them as: 1) nr: the number of btree nodes needs to scan, which will decrease after we scan a btree node, and should not be less than 0; 2) i: the number of btree nodes have scanned, includes both btree_cache_freeable and btree_cache, which should not be bigger than btree_cache_used; 3) freed: the number of btree nodes have freed.

When there are too many I/O errors on cache device, current bcache code will retire the whole cache set, and detach all bcache devices. But the detached bcache devices are not stopped, which is problematic when bcache is in writeback mode. If the retired cache set has dirty data of backing devices, continue writing to bcache device will write to backing device directly. If the LBA of write request has a dirty version cached on cache device, next time when the cache device is re-registered and backing device re-attached to it again, the stale dirty data on cache device will be written to backing device, and overwrite latest directly written data. This situation causes a quite data corruption. But we cannot simply stop all attached bcache devices when the cache set is broken or disconnected. For example, use bcache to accelerate performance of an email service. In such workload, if cache device is broken but no dirty data lost, keep the bcache device alive and permit email service continue to access user data might be a better solution for the cache device failure. Nix <nix@esperi.org.uk> points out the issue and provides the above example to explain why it might be necessary to not stop bcache device for broken cache device. Pavel Goran <via-bcache@pvgoran.name> provides a brilliant suggestion to provide "always" and "auto" options to per-cached device sysfs file stop_when_cache_set_failed. If cache set is retiring and the backing device has no dirty data on cache, it should be safe to keep the bcache device alive. In this case, if stop_when_cache_set_failed is set to "auto", the device failure handling code will not stop this bcache device and permit application to access the backing device with a unattached bcache device. Changelog: [mlyle: edited to not break string constants across lines] v3: fix typos pointed out by Nix. v2: change option values of stop_when_cache_set_failed from 1/0 to "auto"/"always". v1: initial version, stop_when_cache_set_failed can be 0 (not stop) or 1 (always stop).

When too many I/Os failed on cache device, bch_cache_set_error() is called in the error handling code path to retire whole problematic cache set. If new I/O requests continue to come and take refcount dc->count, the cache set won't be retired immediately, this is a problem. Further more, there are several kernel thread and self-armed kernel work may still running after bch_cache_set_error() is called. It needs to wait quite a while for them to stop, or they won't stop at all. They also prevent the cache set from being retired. The solution in this patch is, to add per cache set flag to disable I/O request on this cache and all attached backing devices. Then new coming I/O requests can be rejected in *_make_request() before taking refcount, kernel threads and self-armed kernel worker can stop very fast when flags bit CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set. Because bcache also do internal I/Os for writeback, garbage collection, bucket allocation, journaling, this kind of I/O should be disabled after bch_cache_set_error() is called. So closure_bio_submit() is modified to check whether CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set on cache_set->flags. If set, closure_bio_submit() will set bio->bi_status to BLK_STS_IOERR and return, generic_make_request() won't be called. A sysfs interface is also added to set or clear CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE bit from cache_set->flags, to disable or enable cache set I/O for debugging. It is helpful to trigger more corner case issues for failed cache device. Changelog v4, add wait_for_kthread_stop(), and call it before exits writeback and gc kernel threads. v3, change CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE from 4 to 3, since it is bit index. remove "bcache: " prefix when printing out kernel message. v2, more changes by previous review, - Use CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE of cache_set->flags, suggested by Junhui. - Check CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE in bch_btree_gc() to stop a while-loop, this is reported and inspired from origal patch of Pavel Vazharov. v1, initial version.

struct delayed_work writeback_rate_update in struct cache_dev is a delayed worker to call function update_writeback_rate() in period (the interval is defined by dc->writeback_rate_update_seconds). When a metadate I/O error happens on cache device, bcache error handling routine bch_cache_set_error() will call bch_cache_set_unregister() to retire whole cache set. On the unregister code path, this delayed work is stopped by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync(&dc->writeback_rate_update). dc->writeback_rate_update is a special delayed work from others in bcache. In its routine update_writeback_rate(), this delayed work is re-armed itself. That means when cancel_delayed_work_sync() returns, this delayed work can still be executed after several seconds defined by dc->writeback_rate_update_seconds. The problem is, after cancel_delayed_work_sync() returns, the cache set unregister code path will continue and release memory of struct cache set. Then the delayed work is scheduled to run, __update_writeback_rate() will reference the already released cache_set memory, and trigger a NULL pointer deference fault. This patch introduces two more bcache device flags, - BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING bit set: bcache device is in writeback mode and running, it is OK for dc->writeback_rate_update to re-arm itself. bit clear:bcache device is trying to stop dc->writeback_rate_update, this delayed work should not re-arm itself and quit. - BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING bit set: routine update_writeback_rate() is executing. bit clear: routine update_writeback_rate() quits. This patch also adds a function cancel_writeback_rate_update_dwork() to wait for dc->writeback_rate_update quits before cancel it by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync(). In order to avoid a deadlock by unexpected quit dc->writeback_rate_update, after time_out seconds this function will give up and continue to call cancel_delayed_work_sync(). And here I explain how this patch stops self re-armed delayed work properly with the above stuffs. update_writeback_rate() sets BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING at its beginning and clears BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING at its end. Before calling cancel_writeback_rate_update_dwork() clear flag BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING. Before calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() wait utill flag BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING is clear. So when calling cancel_delayed_work_sync(), dc->writeback_rate_update must be already re- armed, or quite by seeing BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING cleared. In both cases delayed work routine update_writeback_rate() won't be executed after cancel_delayed_work_sync() returns. Inside update_writeback_rate() before calling schedule_delayed_work(), flag BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING is checked before. If this flag is cleared, it means someone is about to stop the delayed work. Because flag BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING is set already and cancel_delayed_work_sync() has to wait for this flag to be cleared, we don't need to worry about race condition here. If update_writeback_rate() is scheduled to run after checking BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING and before calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() in cancel_writeback_rate_update_dwork(), it is also safe. Because at this moment BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING is cleared with memory barrier. As I mentioned previously, update_writeback_rate() will see BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING is clear and quit immediately. Because there are more dependences inside update_writeback_rate() to struct cache_set memory, dc->writeback_rate_update is not a simple self re-arm delayed work. After trying many different methods (e.g. hold dc->count, or use locks), this is the only way I can find which works to properly stop dc->writeback_rate_update delayed work.

In patch "bcache: fix cached_dev->count usage for bch_cache_set_error()", cached_dev_get() is called when creating dc->writeback_thread, and cached_dev_put() is called when exiting dc->writeback_thread. This modification works well unless people detach the bcache device manually by 'echo 1 > /sys/block/bcache<N>/bcache/detach' Because this sysfs interface only calls bch_cached_dev_detach() which wakes up dc->writeback_thread but does not stop it. The reason is, before patch "bcache: fix cached_dev->count usage for bch_cache_set_error()", inside bch_writeback_thread(), if cache is not dirty after writeback, cached_dev_put() will be called here. And in cached_dev_make_request() when a new write request makes cache from clean to dirty, cached_dev_get() will be called there. Since we don't operate dc->count in these locations, refcount d->count cannot be dropped after cache becomes clean, and cached_dev_detach_finish() won't be called to detach bcache device. This patch fixes the issue by checking whether BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING is set inside bch_writeback_thread(). If this bit is set and cache is clean (no existing writeback_keys), break the while-loop, call cached_dev_put() and quit the writeback thread. Please note if cache is still dirty, even BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING is set the writeback thread should continue to perform writeback, this is the original design of manually detach. It is safe to do the following check without locking, let me explain why, + if (!test_bit(BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING, &dc->disk.flags) && + (!atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty) || !dc->writeback_running)) { If the kenrel thread does not sleep and continue to run due to conditions are not updated in time on the running CPU core, it just consumes more CPU cycles and has no hurt. This should-sleep-but-run is safe here. We just focus on the should-run-but-sleep condition, which means the writeback thread goes to sleep in mistake while it should continue to run. 1, First of all, no matter the writeback thread is hung or not, kthread_stop() from cached_dev_detach_finish() will wake up it and terminate by making kthread_should_stop() return true. And in normal run time, bit on index BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING is always cleared, the condition !test_bit(BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING, &dc->disk.flags) is always true and can be ignored as constant value. 2, If one of the following conditions is true, the writeback thread should go to sleep, "!atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty)" or "!dc->writeback_running)" each of them independently controls the writeback thread should sleep or not, let's analyse them one by one. 2.1 condition "!atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty)" If dc->has_dirty is set from 0 to 1 on another CPU core, bcache will call bch_writeback_queue() immediately or call bch_writeback_add() which indirectly calls bch_writeback_queue() too. In bch_writeback_queue(), wake_up_process(dc->writeback_thread) is called. It sets writeback thread's task state to TASK_RUNNING and following an implicit memory barrier, then tries to wake up the writeback thread. In writeback thread, its task state is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE before doing the condition check. If other CPU core sets the TASK_RUNNING state after writeback thread setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, the writeback thread will be scheduled to run very soon because its state is not TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. If other CPU core sets the TASK_RUNNING state before writeback thread setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, the implict memory barrier of wake_up_process() will make sure modification of dc->has_dirty on other CPU core is updated and observed on the CPU core of writeback thread. Therefore the condition check will correctly be false, and continue writeback code without sleeping. 2.2 condition "!dc->writeback_running)" dc->writeback_running can be changed via sysfs file, every time it is modified, a following bch_writeback_queue() is alwasy called. So the change is always observed on the CPU core of writeback thread. If dc->writeback_running is changed from 0 to 1 on other CPU core, this condition check will observe the modification and allow writeback thread to continue to run without sleeping. Now we can see, even without a locking protection, multiple conditions check is safe here, no deadlock or process hang up will happen. I compose a separte patch because that patch "bcache: fix cached_dev->count usage for bch_cache_set_error()" already gets a "Reviewed-by:" from Hannes Reinecke. Also this fix is not trivial and good for a separate patch.

When bcache metadata I/O fails, bcache will call bch_cache_set_error() to retire the whole cache set. The expected behavior to retire a cache set is to unregister the cache set, and unregister all backing device attached to this cache set, then remove sysfs entries of the cache set and all attached backing devices, finally release memory of structs cache_set, cache, cached_dev and bcache_device. In my testing when journal I/O failure triggered by disconnected cache device, sometimes the cache set cannot be retired, and its sysfs entry /sys/fs/bcache/<uuid> still exits and the backing device also references it. This is not expected behavior. When metadata I/O failes, the call senquence to retire whole cache set is, bch_cache_set_error() bch_cache_set_unregister() bch_cache_set_stop() __cache_set_unregister() <- called as callback by calling clousre_queue(&c->caching) cache_set_flush() <- called as a callback when refcount of cache_set->caching is 0 cache_set_free() <- called as a callback when refcount of catch_set->cl is 0 bch_cache_set_release() <- called as a callback when refcount of catch_set->kobj is 0 I find if kernel thread bch_writeback_thread() quits while-loop when kthread_should_stop() is true and searched_full_index is false, clousre callback cache_set_flush() set by continue_at() will never be called. The result is, bcache fails to retire whole cache set. cache_set_flush() will be called when refcount of closure c->caching is 0, and in function bcache_device_detach() refcount of closure c->caching is released to 0 by clousre_put(). In metadata error code path, function bcache_device_detach() is called by cached_dev_detach_finish(). This is a callback routine being called when cached_dev->count is 0. This refcount is decreased by cached_dev_put(). The above dependence indicates, cache_set_flush() will be called when refcount of cache_set->cl is 0, and refcount of cache_set->cl to be 0 when refcount of cache_dev->count is 0. The reason why sometimes cache_dev->count is not 0 (when metadata I/O fails and bch_cache_set_error() called) is, in bch_writeback_thread(), refcount of cache_dev is not decreased properly. In bch_writeback_thread(), cached_dev_put() is called only when searched_full_index is true and cached_dev->writeback_keys is empty, a.k.a there is no dirty data on cache. In most of run time it is correct, but when bch_writeback_thread() quits the while-loop while cache is still dirty, current code forget to call cached_dev_put() before this kernel thread exits. This is why sometimes cache_set_flush() is not executed and cache set fails to be retired. The reason to call cached_dev_put() in bch_writeback_rate() is, when the cache device changes from clean to dirty, cached_dev_get() is called, to make sure during writeback operatiions both backing and cache devices won't be released. Adding following code in bch_writeback_thread() does not work, static int bch_writeback_thread(void *arg) } + if (atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty)) + cached_dev_put() + return 0; } because writeback kernel thread can be waken up and start via sysfs entry: echo 1 > /sys/block/bcache<N>/bcache/writeback_running It is difficult to check whether backing device is dirty without race and extra lock. So the above modification will introduce potential refcount underflow in some conditions. The correct fix is, to take cached dev refcount when creating the kernel thread, and put it before the kernel thread exits. Then bcache does not need to take a cached dev refcount when cache turns from clean to dirty, or to put a cached dev refcount when cache turns from ditry to clean. The writeback kernel thread is alwasy safe to reference data structure from cache set, cache and cached device (because a refcount of cache device is taken for it already), and no matter the kernel thread is stopped by I/O errors or system reboot, cached_dev->count can always be used correctly. The patch is simple, but understanding how it works is quite complicated. Changelog: v2: set dc->writeback_thread to NULL in this patch, as suggested by Hannes. v1: initial version for review.

It happens often while I'm preparing a patch for a block driver that I'm wondering: is a definition of SECTOR_SIZE and/or SECTOR_SHIFT available for this driver? Do I have to introduce definitions of these constants before I can use these constants? To avoid this confusion, move the existing definitions of SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT into the <linux/blkdev.h> header file such that these become available for all block drivers. Make the SECTOR_SIZE definition in the uapi msdos_fs.h header file conditional to avoid that including that header file after <linux/blkdev.h> causes the compiler to complain about a SECTOR_SIZE redefinition. Note: the SECTOR_SIZE / SECTOR_SHIFT / SECTOR_BITS definitions have not been removed from uapi header files nor from NAND drivers in which these constants are used for another purpose than converting block layer offsets and sizes into a number of sectors.

After investigating this issue, we've found it is caused by a race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir(), which is described below: writeback kworker cgroup_rmdir cgroup_destroy_locked kill_css css_killed_ref_fn css_killed_work_fn offline_css blkcg_css_offline blkcg_bio_issue_check rcu_read_lock blkg_lookup spin_trylock(q->queue_lock) blkg_destroy spin_unlock(q->queue_lock) blk_throtl_bio spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock) ... spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock) rcu_read_unlock Since rcu can only prevent blkg from releasing when it is being used, the blkg->refcnt can be decreased to 0 during blkg_destroy() and schedule blkg release. Then trying to blkg_get() in blk_throtl_bio() will complains the WARNING. And then the corresponding blkg_put() will schedule blkg release again, which result in double free. This race is introduced by commit ae118896 ("blkcg: consolidate blkg creation in blkcg_bio_issue_check()"). Before this commit, it will lookup first and then try to lookup/create again with queue_lock. Since revive this logic is a bit drastic, so fix it by only offlining pd during blkcg_css_offline(), and move the rest destruction (especially blkg_put()) into blkcg_css_free(), which should be the right way as discussed.

The current BSG design tries to shoe-horn the transport-specific passthrough commands into the overall framework for SCSI passthrough requests. This has a couple problems: - each passthrough queue has to set the QUEUE_FLAG_SCSI_PASSTHROUGH flag despite not dealing with SCSI commands at all. Because of that these queues could also incorrectly accept SCSI commands from in-kernel users or through the legacy SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl. - the real SCSI bsg queues also incorrectly accept bsg requests of the BSG_SUB_PROTOCOL_SCSI_TRANSPORT type - the bsg transport code is almost unredable because it tries to reuse different SCSI concepts for its own purpose. This patch instead adds a new bsg_ops structure to handle the two cases differently, and thus solves all of the above problems. Another side effect is that the bsg-lib queues also don't need to embedd a struct scsi_request anymore.

This flag was added by fe0f07d0 ("direct-io: only inc/deci inode->i_dio_count for file systems") as means to optimise the atomic modificaiton of the variable for blockdevices. However with the advent of 542ff7bf ("block: new direct I/O implementation") it became unused. So let's remove it.

This flag was added by 60392573 ("direct-io: add flag to allow aio writes beyond i_size") to support XFS. However, with the rework of XFS' DIO's path to use iomap in acdda3aa ("xfs: use iomap_dio_rw") it became redundant. So let's remove it.

The call to check_disk_change() then saw an event flag indicating a possible media change and tried to flush any cached data for the device. As part of the flush, it tried to acquire the super_block->s_umount lock associated with the cdrom device. This was the same super_block as created and locked by the previous task. The first task acquires the s_umount lock and then the sr_mutex_lock; the second task acquires the sr_mutex_lock and then the s_umount lock. This patch fixes the issue by moving check_disk_change() out of cdrom_open() and let the caller take care of it.
