It is very normal to see allocation failure, especially with blk-mq request_queues, so it's unnecessary to report this error and annoy people. In practice this 'blk_get_request() returned -11' error gets logged quite frequently when a blk-mq DM multipath device sees heavy IO. This change is marked for stable@ because the annoying message in question was included in stable@ commit 7083abbb.

Previously, cache blocks were being allocated in reverse order. Fix this by pulling the block off the head of the free list. Shouldn't have any impact on performance or latency but it is more correct to have the cache blocks allocated/mapped in ascending order. This fix will slightly increase the chances of two adjacent oblocks being in adjacent cblocks. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

The background_tracker holds a set of promotions/demotions that the cache policy wishes the core target to implement. When adding a new operation to the tracker it's possible that an operation on the same block is already present (but in practise this doesn't appear to be happening). Catch these situations and do the appropriate cleanup. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

Requesting a sync on an active raid device via a table reload (see 'sync' parameter in Documentation/device-mapper/dm-raid.txt) skips the super_load() call that defines the superblock size (rdev->sb_size) -- resulting in an oops if/when super_sync()->memset() is called. Fix by moving the initialization of the superblock start and size out of super_load() to the caller (analyse_superblocks).

When slub_debug is enabled kmalloc returns unaligned memory. XFS uses this unaligned memory for its buffers (if an unaligned buffer crosses a page, XFS frees it and allocates a full page instead - see the function xfs_buf_allocate_memory). dm-integrity checks if bv_offset is aligned on page size and this check fail with slub_debug and XFS. Fix this bug by removing the bv_offset check, leaving only the check for bv_len.

To fix it, we need to ensure the test of DMF_FREEING & DMF_DELETING and dm_get() are done in an atomic way, so _minor_lock is used. The other callers of dm_get() have also been checked to be OK: some callers invoke dm_get() under _minor_lock, some callers invoke it under _hash_lock, and dm_start_request() invoke it after increasing md->open_count.

The structure srcu_struct can be very big, its size is proportional to the value CONFIG_NR_CPUS. The Fedora kernel has CONFIG_NR_CPUS 8192, the field io_barrier in the struct mapped_device has 84kB in the debugging kernel and 50kB in the non-debugging kernel. The large size may result in failure of the function kzalloc_node. In order to avoid the allocation failure, we use the function kvzalloc_node, this function falls back to vmalloc if a large contiguous chunk of memory is not available. This patch also moves the field io_barrier to the last position of struct mapped_device - the reason is that on many processor architectures, short memory offsets result in smaller code than long memory offsets - on x86-64 it reduces code size by 320 bytes. Note to stable kernel maintainers - the kernels 4.11 and older don't have the function kvzalloc_node, you can use the function vzalloc_node instead.

The SCSI layer allows ZBC drives to have a smaller last runt zone. For such a device, specifying the entire capacity for a dm-zoned target table entry fails because the specified capacity is not aligned on a device zone size indicated in the request queue structure of the device. Fix this problem by ignoring the last runt zone in the entry length when seting up the dm-zoned target (ctr method) and when iterating table entries of the target (iterate_devices method). This allows dm-zoned users to still easily setup a target using the entire device capacity (as mandated by dm-zoned) or the aligned capacity excluding the last runt zone. While at it, replace direct references to the device queue chunk_sectors limit with calls to the accessor blk_queue_zone_sectors().

Now that we have the ability log filesystem writes using a flat buffer, add support for DAX. The motivation for this support is the need for an xfstest that can test the new MAP_SYNC DAX flag. By logging the filesystem activity with dm-log-writes we can show that the MAP_SYNC page faults are writing out their metadata as they happen, instead of requiring an explicit msync/fsync. Unfortunately we can't easily track data that has been written via mmap() now that the dax_flush() abstraction was removed by commit c3ca015f ("dax: remove the pmem_dax_ops->flush abstraction"). Otherwise we could just treat each flush as a big write, and store the data that is being synced to media. It may be worthwhile to add the dax_flush() entry point back, just as a notifier so we can do this logging.

Currently dm-log-writes supports writing filesystem data via BIOs, and writing internal metadata from a flat buffer via write_metadata(). For DAX writes, though, we won't have a BIO, but will instead have an iterator that we'll want to use to fill a flat data buffer. So, create write_inline_data() which allows us to write filesystem data using a flat buffer as a source, and wire it up in log_one_block().

Discontinue issuing writethrough write IO in series to the origin and then cache. Use bio_clone_fast() to create a new origin clone bio that will be mapped to the origin device and then bio_chain() it to the bio that gets remapped to the cache device. The origin clone bio does _not_ have a copy of the per_bio_data -- as such check_if_tick_bio_needed() will not be called. The cache bio (parent bio) will not complete until the origin bio has completed -- this fulfills bio_clone_fast()'s requirements as well as the requirement to not complete the original IO until the write IO has completed to both the origin and cache device.

Joe Thornber authored
When a DM cache in writeback mode moves data between the slow and fast device it can often avoid a copy if the triggering bio either: i) covers the whole block (no point copying if we're about to overwrite it) ii) the migration is a promotion and the origin block is currently discarded Prior to this fix there was a race with case (ii). The discard status was checked with a shared lock held (rather than exclusive). This meant another bio could run in parallel and write data to the origin, removing the discard state. After the promotion the parallel write would have been lost. With this fix the discard status is re-checked once the exclusive lock has been aquired. If the block is no longer discarded it falls back to the slower full copy path.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable dm_cache_metadata.ref_count is used as pure reference counter.

This is the possible reason for different hard to reproduce problems on my ARMv7-SMP test system. The symptoms are in recent kernels imprecise external aborts, and in older kernels various kinds of network stalls and unexpected page allocation failures. My testing indicates that the trouble started between v4.5 and v4.6 and prevails up to v4.14. Using the dirty_tx before acquiring the spin lock is clearly wrong and was first introduced with v4.6.
