      md: use msleep() in md_notify_reboot() · 7d959f6e
      Eric Dumazet authored
      Calling mdelay(1000) from process context, even while a reboot
      is in progress, does not make sense.
      
      Using msleep() allows other threads to make progress.

      On Ubuntu 21.10 (ppc64le) building raid6test with gcc (Ubuntu

      lib/raid6/test/Makefile: Use $(pound) instead of \# for Make 4.3 · 633174a7
      Paul Menzel authored
      Buidling raid6test on Ubuntu 21.10 (ppc64le) with GNU Make 4.3 shows the
      errors below:
      
          $ cd lib/raid6/test/
          $ make
          <stdin>:1:1: error: stray ‘\’ in program
          <stdin>:1:2: error: stray ‘#’ in program
          <stdin>:1:11: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ \
              before ‘<’ token
      
          [...]
      
      The errors come from the HAS_ALTIVEC test, which fails, and the POWER
      optimized versions are not built. That’s also reason nobody noticed on the
      other architectures.
      
      GNU Make 4.3 does not remove the backslash anymore. From the 4.3 release
      announcment:
      
      > * WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
      >   Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
      >   no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
      >   thus a call such as:
      >     foo := $(shell echo '#')
      >   is legal.  Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
      >     foo := $(shell echo '\#')
      >   Now this latter will resolve to "\#".  If you want to write makefiles
      >   portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
      >     H := \#
      >     foo := $(shell echo '$H')
      >   This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
      >   To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.
      
      So, do the same as commit 9564a8cf ("Kbuild: fix # escaping in .cmd
      files for future Make") and commit 929bef46 ("bpf: Use $(pound) instead
      of \# in Makefiles") and define and use a $(pound) variable.
      
      Reference for the change in make:
      https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/make.git/commit/?id=c6966b323811c37acedff05b57

      lib/raid6/test: fix multiple definition linking error · a5359ddd
      Dirk Müller authored
      GCC 10+ defaults to -fno-common, which enforces proper declaration of
      external references using "extern". without this change a link would
      fail with:
      
        lib/raid6/test/algos.c:28: multiple definition of `raid6_call';
        lib/raid6/test/test.c:22: first defined here
      
      the pq.h header that is included already includes an extern declaration
      so we can just remove the redundant one here.

      Those counters are not necessary after commit 11bb45e8aaf6 ("md: drop queue
      limitation for RAID1 and RAID10"). Remove them from all code (conf and
      plug structs). raid1_plug_cb and raid10_plug_cb are identical, so move
      definition of raid1_plug_cb to common raid1-10 definitions and use it for
      RAID10 too.

      bcache: fixup multiple threads crash · 887554ab
      Mingzhe Zou authored
      When multiple threads to check btree nodes in parallel, the main
      thread wait for all threads to stop or CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE flag:
      
      wait_event_interruptible(check_state->wait,
                               atomic_read(&check_state->started) == 0 ||
                               test_bit(CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE, &c->flags));
      
      However, the bch_btree_node_read and bch_btree_node_read_done
      maybe call bch_cache_set_error, then the CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE
      will be set. If the flag already set, the main thread return
      error. At the same time, maybe some threads still running and
      read NULL pointer, the kernel will crash.
      
      This patch change the event wait condition, the main thread must
      wait for all threads to stop.

      bcache: fixup bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() multithreaded CPU false sharing · 7b1002f7
      Mingzhe Zou authored
      When attaching a cached device (a.k.a backing device) to a cache
      device, bch_sectors_dirty_init() is called to count dirty sectors
      and stripes (see what bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() does) on the
      cache device.
      
      When bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() is called, set_bit(stripe,
      d->full_dirty_stripes) or clear_bit(stripe, d->full_dirty_stripes)
      operation will always be performed. In full_dirty_stripes, each 1bit
      represents stripe_size (8192) sectors (512B), so 1bit=4MB (8192*512),
      and each CPU cache line=64B=512bit=2048MB. When 20 threads process
      a cached disk with 100G dirty data, a single thread processes about
      23M at a time, and 20 threads total 460M. These full_dirty_stripes
      bits corresponding to the 460M data is likely to fall in the same CPU
      cache line. When one of these threads performs a set_bit or clear_bit
      operation, the same CPU cache line of other threads will become invalid
      and must read the full_dirty_stripes from the main memory again. Compared
      with single thread, the time of a bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add()
      call is increased by about 50 times in our test (100G dirty data,
      20 threads, bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() is called more than
      20 million times).
      
      This patch tries to test_bit before set_bit or clear_bit operation.
      Therefore, a lot of force set and clear operations will be avoided,
      and most of bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() calls will only read CPU
      cache line.
