When pblk receives a sync, all data up to that point in the write buffer must be comitted to persistent storage, and as flash memory comes with a minimal write size there is a significant cost involved both in terms of time for completing the sync and in terms of write amplification padded sectors for filling up to the minimal write size. In order to get a better understanding of the costs involved for syncs, Add a sysfs attribute to pblk: padded_dist, showing a normalized distribution of sectors padded. In order to facilitate measurements of specific workloads during the lifetime of the pblk instance, the distribution can be reset by writing 0 to the attribute. Do this by introducing counters for each possible padding: {0..(minimal write size - 1)} and calculate the normalized distribution when showing the attribute.

In a SSD, write amplification, WA, is defined as the average number of page writes per user page write. Write amplification negatively affects write performance and decreases the lifetime of the disk, so it's a useful metric to add to sysfs. In plkb's case, the number of writes per user sector is the sum of: (1) number of user writes (2) number of sectors written by the garbage collector (3) number of sectors padded (i.e. due to syncs) This patch adds persistent counters for 1-3 and two sysfs attributes to export these along with WA calculated with five decimals: write_amp_mileage: the accumulated write amplification stats for the lifetime of the pblk instance write_amp_trip: resetable stats to facilitate delta measurements, values reset at creation and if 0 is written to the attribute. 64-bit counters are used as a 32 bit counter would wrap around already after about 17 TB worth of user data. It will take a long long time before the 64 bit sector counters wrap around. The counters are stored after the bad block bitmap in the first emeta sector of each written line. There is plenty of space in the first emeta sector, so we don't need to bump the major version of the line data format.

As a preparation for future bumps of data line persistent storage versions, we need to start checking the emeta line version during recovery. Also slit up the current emeta/smeta version into two bytes (major,minor). Recovering lines with the same major number as the current pblk data line version must succeed. This means that any changes in the persistent format must be: (1) Backward compatible: if we switch back to and older kernel, recovery of lines stored with major == current_major and minor > current_minor must succeed. (2) Forward compatible: switching to a newer kernel, recovery of lines stored with major=current_major and minor < minor must handle the data format differences gracefully(i.e. initialize new data structures to default values). If we detect lines that have a different major number than the current we must abort recovery. The user must manually migrate the data in this case. Previously the version stored in the emeta header was copied from smeta, which has version 1, so we need to set the minor version to 1.

We hit an issue where a loop device on NFS was stuck in loop_get_status() doing vfs_getattr() after the NFS server died, which caused a pile-up of uninterruptible processes waiting on lo_ctl_mutex. There's no reason to hold this lock while we wait on the filesystem; let's drop it so that other processes can do their thing. We need to grab a reference on lo_backing_file while we use it, and we can get rid of the check on lo_device, which has been unnecessary since commit a34c0ae9 ("[PATCH] loop: remove the bio remapping capability") in the linux-history tree.

If a storage device handled by BFQ happens to be slower than 7.5 KB/s for a certain amount of time (in the order of a second), then the estimated peak rate of the device, maintained in BFQ, becomes equal to 0. The reason is the limited precision with which the rate is represented (details on the range of representable values in the comments introduced by this commit). This leads to a division-by-zero error where the estimated peak rate is used as divisor. Such a type of failure has been reported in [1]. This commit addresses this issue by: 1. Lower-bounding the estimated peak rate to 1 2. Adding and improving comments on the range of rates representable [1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg2739205.htmlSigned-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@yandex-team.ru> Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

When a bio completion calls back into the transport for a back-end io device, the request completion path can free the transport io job structure allowing it to be reused for other operations. The transport has a defer_rcv queue which holds temporary cmd rcv ops while waitng for io job structures. when the job frees, if there's a cmd waiting, it is picked up and submitted for processing, which can call back out to the bio path if it's a read. Unfortunately, what is unknown is the context of the original bio done call, and it may be in a state (softirq) that is not compatible with submitting the new bio in the same calling sequence. This is especially true when using scsi back-end devices as scsi is in softirq when it makes the done call. Correct by scheduling the io to be started via workq rather than calling the start new io path inline to the original bio done path.

Another abort race: An io request is started, becomes active, and is attempted to be started with the lldd. At the same time the controller is stopped/torndown and an itterator is run to abort the ios. As the io is active, it is added to the outstanding aborted io count. However on the original io request thread, the driver ends up rejecting the io due to the condition that induced the controller teardown. The driver reject path didn't check whether it was in the outstanding io count. This left the count outstanding stopping controller teardown. Correct by, in the driver reject case, setting the state to inactive and checking whether it was in the outstanding io count.

The current nvme_fc code, when an io times out, will abort the io on the fc link, then call the error recovery routine to reset the controller. It is during the reset of the controller that the transport will wait for all ios to be aborted before sending a Disconnect LS to the target. However, the reset routine only waits for the io which it generates the abort for to complete. Any io that was aborted just prior to the reset isn't in it's list to wait for. Thus the Disconnect is getting sent before the aborts have completed. Correct by removing the abort in the timeout handler. The reset will generate the abort. At that point the timeout handler can be simplified to request the reset (via the error handler) and restart the timeout timer. Also fixes a small typo in a comment in the reset handler.

If there are errors during initial controller create, the transport will teardown the partially initialized controller struct and free the ctlr memory. Trouble is - most of those errors can occur due to asynchronous events happening such io timeouts and subsystem connectivity failures. Those failures invoke async workq items to reset the controller and attempt reconnect. Those may be in progress as the main thread frees the ctrl memory, resulting in NULL ptr oops. Prevent this from happening by having the main ctrl failure thread changing state to DELETING followed by synchronously cancelling any pending queued work item. The change of state will prevent the scheduling of resets or reconnect events.

Yet another "incompatible" Samsung NVMe SSD 960 EVO and Asus motherboard combination. 960 EVO device disappears from PCIe bus within few minutes after boot-up when APST is in use and never gets back. Forcing NVME_QUIRK_NO_APST is the only way to make this drive work with this particular motherboard. NVME_QUIRK_NO_DEEPEST_PS doesn't work, upgrading motherboard's BIOS didn't help either. Since this is a desktop motherboard, the only drawback of not using APST is increased device temperature.

namespaces_mutext is used to synchronize the operations on ctrl namespaces list. Most of the time, it is a read operation. On the other hand, there are many interfaces in nvme core that need this lock, such as nvme_wait_freeze, and even more interfaces will be added. If we use mutex here, circular dependency could be introduced easily. For example: context A context B nvme_xxx nvme_xxx hold namespaces_mutext require namespaces_mutext sync context B So it is better to change it from mutex to rwsem.
