Now multi-page bvec can cover CONFIG_THP_SWAP, so we don't need to increase BIO_MAX_PAGES for it. CONFIG_THP_SWAP needs to split one THP into normal pages and adds them all to one bio. With multipage-bvec, it just takes one bvec to hold them all. Reviewed-by:

This patch introduces one extra iterator variable to bio_for_each_segment_all(), then we can allow bio_for_each_segment_all() to iterate over multi-page bvec. Given it is just one mechannical & simple change on all bio_for_each_segment_all() users, this patch does tree-wide change in one single patch, so that we can avoid to use a temporary helper for this conversion.

bch_bio_alloc_pages() is always called on one new bio, so it is safe to access the bvec table directly. Given it is the only kind of this case, open code the bvec table access since bio_for_each_segment_all() will be changed to support for iterating over multipage bvec. Acked-by:

It is more efficient to use bio_for_each_bvec() to map sg, meantime we have to consider splitting multipage bvec as done in blk_bio_segment_split(). Reviewed-by:

Ming Lei authored
First it is more efficient to use bio_for_each_bvec() in both blk_bio_segment_split() and __blk_recalc_rq_segments() to compute how many multi-page bvecs there are in the bio. Secondly once bio_for_each_bvec() is used, the bvec may need to be splitted because its length can be very longer than max segment size, so we have to split the big bvec into several segments. Thirdly when splitting multi-page bvec into segments, the max segment limit may be reached, so the bio split need to be considered under this situation too. Reviewed-by:

bio_for_each_bvec() is used for iterating over multi-page bvec for bio split & merge code. rq_for_each_bvec() can be used for drivers which may handle the multi-page bvec directly, so far loop is one perfect use case. Reviewed-by:

This patch introduces helpers of 'mp_bvec_iter_*' for multi-page bvec support. The introduced helpers treate one bvec as real multi-page segment, which may include more than one pages. The existed helpers of bvec_iter_* are interfaces for supporting current bvec iterator which is thought as single-page by drivers, fs, dm and etc. These introduced helpers will build single-page bvec in flight, so this way won't break current bio/bvec users, which needn't any change. Follows some multi-page bvec background: - bvecs stored in bio->bi_io_vec is always multi-page style - bvec(struct bio_vec) represents one physically contiguous I/O buffer, now the buffer may include more than one page after multi-page bvec is supported, and all these pages represented by one bvec is physically contiguous. Before multi-page bvec support, at most one page is included in one bvec, we call it single-page bvec. - .bv_page of the bvec points to the 1st page in the multi-page bvec - .bv_offset of the bvec is the offset of the buffer in the bvec The effect on the current drivers/filesystem/dm/bcache/...: - almost everyone supposes that one bvec only includes one single page, so we keep the sp interface not changed, for example, bio_for_each_segment() still returns single-page bvec - bio_for_each_segment_all() will return single-page bvec too - during iterating, iterator variable(struct bvec_iter) is always updated in multi-page bvec style, and bvec_iter_advance() is kept not changed - returned(copied) single-page bvec is built in flight by bvec helpers from the stored multi-page bvec Reviewed-by:

It is wrong to use bio->bi_vcnt to figure out how many segments there are in the bio even though CLONED flag isn't set on this bio, because this bio may be splitted or advanced. So always use bio_segments() in blk_recount_segments(), and it shouldn't cause any performance loss now because the physical segment number is figured out in blk_queue_split() and BIO_SEG_VALID is set meantime since bdced438 ("block: setup bi_phys_segments after splitting").

bio_readpage_error currently uses bi_vcnt to decide if it is worth retrying an I/O. But the vector count is mostly an implementation artifact - it really should figure out if there is more than a single sector worth retrying. Use bi_size for that and shift by PAGE_SHIFT. This really should be blocks/sectors, but given that btrfs doesn't support a sector size different from the PAGE_SIZE using the page size keeps the changes to a minimum. Reviewed-by:

This patch fixes a race condition where a write is mapped to the last sectors of a line. The write is synced to the device but the L2P is not updated yet. When the line is garbage collected before the L2P update is performed, the sectors are ignored by the GC logic and the line is freed before all sectors are moved. When the L2P is finally updated, it contains a mapping to a freed line, subsequent reads of the corresponding LBAs fail. This patch introduces a per line counter specifying the number of sectors that are synced to the device but have not been updated in the L2P. Lines with a counter of greater than zero will not be selected for GC. Signed-off-by:

In order to respect mw_cuinits, pblk's write buffer maintains a backpointer to protect data not yet persisted; when writing to the write buffer, this backpointer defines a threshold that pblk's rate-limiter enforces. On small PU configurations, the following scenarios might take place: (i) the threshold is larger than the write buffer and (ii) the threshold is smaller than the write buffer, but larger than the maximun allowed split bio - 256KB at this moment (Note that writes are not always split - we only do this when we the size of the buffer is smaller than the buffer). In both cases, pblk's rate-limiter prevents the I/O to be written to the buffer, thus stalling. This patch fixes the original backpointer implementation by considering the threshold both on buffer creation and on the rate-limiters path, when bio_split is triggered (case (ii) above). Fixes: 766c8ceb ("lightnvm: pblk: guarantee that backpointer is respected on writer stall") Signed-off-by:

pblk stripes writes of minimal write size across all non-offline chunks in a line, which means that the maximum write pointer delta should not exceed the minimal write size. Extend the line write pointer balance check to cover this case, and ignore the offline chunk wps. This will render us a warning during recovery if something unexpected has happened to the chunk write pointers (i.e. powerloss, a spurious chunk reset, ..). Reported-by:

In 'commit 752f66a7 ("bcache: use REQ_PRIO to indicate bio for metadata")' REQ_META is replaced by REQ_PRIO to indicate metadata bio. This assumption is not always correct, e.g. XFS uses REQ_META to mark metadata bio other than REQ_PRIO. This is why Nix noticed that bcache does not cache metadata for XFS after the above commit. Thanks to Dave Chinner, he explains the difference between REQ_META and REQ_PRIO from view of file system developer. Here I quote part of his explanation from mailing list, REQ_META is used for metadata. REQ_PRIO is used to communicate to the lower layers that the submitter considers this IO to be more important that non REQ_PRIO IO and so dispatch should be expedited. IOWs, if the filesystem considers metadata IO to be more important that user data IO, then it will use REQ_PRIO | REQ_META rather than just REQ_META. Then it seems bios with REQ_META or REQ_PRIO should both be cached for performance optimation, because they are all probably low I/O latency demand by upper layer (e.g. file system). So in this patch, when we want to decide whether to bypass the cache, REQ_META and REQ_PRIO are both checked. Then both metadata and high priority I/O requests will be handled properly. Reported-by:

Cache set sysfs entry io_error_halflife is used to set c->error_decay. c->error_decay is in type unsigned int, and it is converted by strtoul_or_return(), therefore overflow to c->error_decay is possible for a large input value. This patch fixes the overflow by using strtoul_safe_clamp() to convert input string to an unsigned long value in range [0, UINT_MAX], then divides by 88 and set it to c->error_decay. Signed-off-by:

c->error_limit is in type unsigned int, it is set via cache set sysfs file io_error_limit. Inside the bcache code, input string is converted by strtoul_or_return() and set the converted value to c->error_limit. Because the converted value is unsigned long, and c->error_limit is unsigned int, if the input is large enought, overflow will happen to c->error_limit. This patch uses sysfs_strtoul_clamp() to convert input string, and set the range in [0, UINT_MAX] to avoid the potential overflow. Signed-off-by:

c->journal_delay_ms is in type unsigned short, it is set via sysfs interface and converted by sysfs_strtoul() from input string to unsigned short value. Therefore overflow to unsigned short might be happen when the converted value exceed USHRT_MAX. e.g. writing 65536 into sysfs file journal_delay_ms, c->journal_delay_ms is set to 0.

Current code already uses d_strtoul_nonzero() to convert input string to an unsigned integer, to make sure writeback_rate_p_term_inverse won't be zero value. But overflow may happen when converting input string to an unsigned integer value by d_strtoul_nonzero(), then dc->writeback_rate_p_term_inverse can still be set to 0 even if the sysfs file input value is not zero, e.g. 4294967296 (a.k.a UINT_MAX+1). If dc->writeback_rate_p_term_inverse is set to 0, it might cause a dev-zero error in following code from __update_writeback_rate(), int64_t proportional_scaled = div_s64(error, dc->writeback_rate_p_term_inverse); This patch replaces d_strtoul_nonzero() by sysfs_strtoul_clamp() and limit the value range in [1, UINT_MAX]. Then the unsigned integer overflow and dev-zero error can be avoided. Signed-off-by:

dc->writeback_rate_i_term_inverse can be set via sysfs interface. It is in type unsigned int, and convert from input string by d_strtoul(). The problem is d_strtoul() does not check valid range of the input, if 4294967296 is written into sysfs file writeback_rate_i_term_inverse, an overflow of unsigned integer will happen and value 0 is set to dc->writeback_rate_i_term_inverse. In writeback.c:__update_writeback_rate(), there are following lines of code, integral_scaled = div_s64(dc->writeback_rate_integral, dc->writeback_rate_i_term_inverse); If dc->writeback_rate_i_term_inverse is set to 0 via sysfs interface, a div-zero error might be triggered in the above code. Therefore we need to add a range limitation in the sysfs interface, this is what this patch does, use sysfs_stroul_clamp() to replace d_strtoul() and restrict the input range in [1, UINT_MAX].

Sysfs file writeback_delay is used to configure dc->writeback_delay which is type unsigned int. But bcache code uses sysfs_strtoul() to convert the input string, therefore it might be overflowed if the input value is too large. E.g. input value is 4294967296 but indeed 0 is set to dc->writeback_delay. This patch uses sysfs_strtoul_clamp() to convert the input string and set the result value range in [0, UINT_MAX] to avoid such unsigned integer overflow. Signed-off-by:

When setting bcache parameters via sysfs, there are some variables are defined as bit-field value. Current bcache code in sysfs.c uses either d_strtoul() or sysfs_strtoul() to convert the input string to unsigned integer value and set it to the corresponded bit-field value. The problem is, the bit-field value only takes the lowest bit of the converted value. If input is 2, the expected value (like bool value) of the bit-field value should be 1, but indeed it is 0. The following sysfs files for bit-field variables have such problem, bypass_torture_test, for dc->bypass_torture_test writeback_metadata, for dc->writeback_metadata writeback_running, for dc->writeback_running verify, for c->verify key_merging_disabled, for c->key_merging_disabled gc_always_rewrite, for c->gc_always_rewrite btree_shrinker_disabled,for c->shrinker_disabled copy_gc_enabled, for c->copy_gc_enabled This patch uses sysfs_strtoul_bool() to set such bit-field variables, then if the converted value is non-zero, the bit-field variables will be set to 1, like setting a bool value like expensive_debug_checks.

When setting bool values via sysfs interface, e.g. writeback_metadata, if writing 1 into writeback_metadata file, dc->writeback_metadata is set to 1, but if writing 2 into the file, dc->writeback_metadata is 0. This is misleading, a better result should be 1 for all non-zero input value. It is because dc->writeback_metadata is a bit-field variable, and current code simply use d_strtoul() to convert a string into integer and takes the lowest bit value. To fix such error, we need a routine to convert the input string into unsigned integer, and set target variable to 1 if the converted integer is non-zero. This patch introduces a new macro called sysfs_strtoul_bool(), it can be used to convert input string into bool value, we can use it to set bool value for bit-field vairables. Signed-off-by:
