2011-06-30drbd: when receive times out on meta socket, also check last receive time on ↵Lars Ellenberg
data socket If we have an asymetrically congested network, we may send P_PING, but due to congestion, the corresponding P_PING_ACK would time out, and we would drop a (congested, but otherwise) healthy connection ("PingAck did not arrive in time.")

2011-06-30drbd: account bitmap IO during resync as resync-(related-)-ioLars Ellenberg
If we have a good resync rate, we will frequently update the on-disk bitmap, which, if not accounted for as resync io, may let an otherwise idle device appear to be "busy", and cause us to throttle resync.

2011-06-30drbd: don't cond_resched_lock with IRQs disabledLars Ellenberg
The last commit, drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receive, introduced a cond_resched_lock(), where the lock in question is taken with irqs disabled. As we must not schedule with IRQs disabled, and cond_resched_lock_irq() does not exist, yet, we re-aquire the spin_lock_irq() for each bitmap page processed in turn.

2011-06-30drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receiveLars Ellenberg
During bitmap exchange, when using the RLE bitmap compression scheme, we have a code path that can set the whole bitmap at once. To avoid holding spin_lock_irq() for too long, we used to lock out other bitmap modifications during bitmap exchange by other means, and then, knowing we have exclusive access to the bitmap, modify it without the spinlock, and with IRQs enabled. Since we now allow local IO to continue, potentially setting additional bits during the bitmap receive phase, this is no longer true, and we get uncoordinated updates of bitmap members, causing bm_set to no longer accurately reflect the total number of set bits. To actually see this, you'd need to have a large bitmap, use RLE bitmap compression, and have busy IO during sync handshake and bitmap exchange. Fix this by taking the spin_lock_irq() in this code path as well, but calling cond_resched_lock() after each page worth of bits processed.

2011-05-24loop: handle on-demand devices correctlyNamhyung Kim
When finding or allocating a loop device, loop_probe() did not take partition numbers into account so that it can result to a different device. Consider following example: $ sudo modprobe loop max_part=15 $ ls -l /dev/loop* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 0 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 16 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 32 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 48 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop3 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 64 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop4 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 80 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop5 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 96 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop6 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 112 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop7 $ sudo mknod /dev/loop8 b 7 128 $ sudo losetup /dev/loop8 ~/temp/disk-with-3-parts.img $ sudo losetup -a /dev/loop128: [0805]:278201 (/home/namhyung/temp/disk-with-3-parts.img) $ ls -l /dev/loop* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 0 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 16 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 2048 2011-05-24 22:18 /dev/loop128 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 2049 2011-05-24 22:18 /dev/loop128p1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 2050 2011-05-24 22:18 /dev/loop128p2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 2051 2011-05-24 22:18 /dev/loop128p3 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 32 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 48 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop3 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 64 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop4 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 80 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop5 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 96 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop6 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 112 2011-05-24 22:16 /dev/loop7 brw-r--r-- 1 root root 7, 128 2011-05-24 22:17 /dev/loop8 After this patch, /dev/loop8 - instead of /dev/loop128 - was accessed correctly. In addition, 'range' passed to blk_register_region() should include all range of dev_t that LOOP_MAJOR can address.

2011-05-24loop: limit 'max_part' module param to DISK_MAX_PARTSNamhyung Kim
The 'max_part' parameter controls the number of maximum partition a loop block device can have. However if a user specifies very large value it would exceed the limitation of device minor number and can cause a kernel panic (or, at least, produce invalid device nodes in some cases). On my desktop system, following command kills the kernel. On qemu, it triggers similar oops but the kernel was alive: $ sudo modprobe loop max_part0000 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at /media/Linux_Data/project/linux/fs/sysfs/group.c:65! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: CPU 0 Modules linked in: loop(+) Pid: 43, comm: insmod Tainted: G W 2.6.39-qemu+ #155 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8113ce61>] [<ffffffff8113ce61>] internal_create_group= +0x2a/0x170 RSP: 0018:ffff880007b3fde8 EFLAGS: 00000246 RAX: 00000000ffffffef RBX: ffff880007b3d878 RCX: 00000000000007b4 RDX: ffffffff8152da50 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff880007b3d878 RBP: ffff880007b3fe38 R08: ffff880007b3fde8 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: ffff88000783b4a8 R11: ffff880007b3d878 R12: ffffffff8152da50 R13: ffff880007b3d868 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffff880007b3d800 FS: 0000000002137880(0063) GS:ffff880007c00000(0000) knlGS:00000000000000= 00 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000422680 CR3: 0000000007b50000 CR4: 00000000000006b0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 0000000000000000 DR7: 0000000000000000 Process insmod (pid: 43, threadinfo ffff880007b3e000, task ffff880007afb9c= 0) Stack: ffff880007b3fe58 ffffffff811e66dd ffff880007b3fe58 ffffffff811e570b 0000000000000010 ffff880007b3d800 ffff880007a7b390 ffff880007b3d868 0000000000400920 ffff880007b3d800 ffff880007b3fe48 ffffffff8113cfc8 Call Trace: [<ffffffff811e66dd>] ? device_add+0x4bc/0x5af [<ffffffff811e570b>] ? dev_set_name+0x3c/0x3e [<ffffffff8113cfc8>] sysfs_create_group+0xe/0x12 [<ffffffff810b420e>] blk_trace_init_sysfs+0x14/0x16 [<ffffffff8116a090>] blk_register_queue+0x47/0xf7 [<ffffffff8116f527>] add_disk+0xdf/0x290 [<ffffffffa00060eb>] loop_init+0xeb/0x1b8 [loop] [<ffffffffa0006000>] ? 0xffffffffa0005fff [<ffffffff8100020a>] do_one_initcall+0x7a/0x12e [<ffffffff81096804>] sys_init_module+0x9c/0x1e0 [<ffffffff813329bb>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: c3 55 48 89 e5 41 57 41 56 41 89 f6 41 55 41 54 49 89 d4 53 48 89 fb= 48 83 ec 28 48 85 ff 74 0b 85 f6 75 0b 48 83 7f 30 00 75 14 <0f> 0b eb fe = 48 83 7f 30 00 b9 ea ff ff ff 0f 84 18 01 00 00 49 RIP [<ffffffff8113ce61>] internal_create_group+0x2a/0x170 RSP <ffff880007b3fde8> ---[ end trace a123eb592043acad ]--- Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Cc: Laurent Vivier <Laurent.Vivier@bull.net> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-05-24drbd: fix schedule in atomicLars Ellenberg
An administrative detach used to request a state change directly to D_DISKLESS, first suspending IO to avoid the last put_ldev() occuring from an endio handler, potentially in irq context. This is not enough on the receiving side (typically secondary), we may miss some peer_req on the way to local disk, which then may do the last put_ldev() from their drbd_peer_request_endio(). This patch makes the detach always go through the intermediate D_FAILED state. We may consider to rename it D_DETACHING. Alternative approach would be to create yet an other work item to be scheduled on the worker, do the destructor work from there, and get the timing right. manually picked commit 564040f from the drbd 8.4 branch.

2011-05-24drbd: Take a more conservative approach when deciding max_bio_sizePhilipp Reisner
The old (optimistic) implementation could shrink the bio size on an primary device. Shrinking the bio size on a primary device is bad. Since there we might get BIOs with the old (bigger) size shortly after we published the new size. The new implementation is more conservative, and eventually increases the max_bio_size on a primary device (which is valid). It does so, when it knows the local limit AND the remote limit. We cache the last seen max_bio_size of the peer in the meta data, and rely on that, to make the operation of single nodes more efficient.

2011-05-24drbd: fix disconnect/reconnect loop, if ping-timeout == ping-intLars Ellenberg
If there is no replication traffic within the idle timeout (ping-int seconds), DRBD will send a P_PING, and adjust the timeout to ping-timeout. If there is no P_PING_ACK received within this ping-timeout, DRBD finally drops the connection, and tries to re-establish it. To decide which timeout was active, we compared the current timeout with the ping-timeout, and dropped the connection, if that was the case. By default, ping-int is 10 seconds, ping-timeout is 500 ms. Unfortunately, if you configure ping-timeout to be the same as ping-int, expiry of the idle-timeout had been mistaken for a missing ping ack, and caused an immediate reconnection attempt. Fix: Allow both timeouts to be equal, use a local variable to store which timeout is active.

2011-05-24drbd: fix potential distributed deadlockLars Ellenberg
We limit ourselves to a configurable maximum number of pages used as temporary bio pages. If the configured "max_buffers" is not big enough to match the bandwidth of the respective deployment, a distributed deadlock could be triggered by e.g. fast online verify and heavy application IO. TCP connections would block on congestion, because both receivers would wait on pages to become available. Fortunately the respective senders in this case would be able to give back some pages already. So do that.

In case a write failes on the local disk, go into D_INCONSISTENT disk state. That causes future reads of that block to be shipped to the peer. Read retry remote was already in place. Actually the documentation needs to get fixed now. Since the application is still shielded from the error. (as long as we have only a single disk failing) The difference to detach is that we keep the disk. And therefore might keep all the other, still working sectors up to date.

2011-05-18xen/p2m/m2p/gnttab: Support GNTMAP_host_map in the M2P override.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
We only supported the M2P (and P2M) override only for the GNTMAP_contains_pte type mappings. Meaning that we grants operations would "contain the machine address of the PTE to update" If the flag is unset, then the grant operation is "contains a host virtual address". The latter case means that the Hypervisor takes care of updating our page table (specifically the PTE entry) with the guest's MFN. As such we should not try to do anything with the PTE. Previous to this patch we would try to clear the PTE which resulted in Xen hypervisor being upset with us: (XEN) mm.c:1066:d0 Attempt to implicitly unmap a granted PTE c0100000ccc59067 (XEN) domain_crash called from mm.c:1067 (XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#3: (XEN) ----[ Xen-4.0-110228 x86_64 debug=y Not tainted ]---- and crashing us. This patch allows us to inhibit the PTE clearing in the PV guest if the GNTMAP_contains_pte is not set. On the m2p_remove_override path we provide the same parameter. Sadly in the grant-table driver we do not have a mechanism to tell m2p_remove_override whether to clear the PTE or not. Since the grant-table driver is used by user-space, we can safely assume that it operates only on PTE's. Hence the implementation for it to work on !GNTMAP_contains_pte returns -EOPNOTSUPP. In the future we can implement the support for this. It will require some extra accounting structure to keep track of the page[i], and the flag. [v1: Added documentation details, made it return -EOPNOTSUPP instead of trying to do a half-way implementation] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

This is to fix the problem that if you had more than two tape drives, you couldn't, for example, erase or rewind them all at the same time. Signed-off-by: Stephen M.

It causes NMIs which are undesirable at best, unsurvivable at worst. Prefer the soft reset instead. Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron <scameron@beardog.cce.hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-05-06cciss: do soft reset if hard reset is brokenStephen M. Cameron
on driver load, if reset_devices is set, and the hard reset attempts fail, try to bring up the controller to the point that a command can be sent, and send it a soft reset command, then after the reset undo whatever driver initialization was done to get it to the point to take a command, and re-do it after the reset. This is to get kdump to work on all the "non-resettable" controllers (except 64xx controllers which can't be reset due to the potentially shared cache module.) Signed-off-by: Stephen M.

2011-05-06cciss: use new doorbell-bit-5 reset methodStephen M. Cameron
The bit-2-doorbell reset method seemed to cause (survivable) NMIs on some systems and (unsurvivable) IOCK NMIs on some G7 servers. Firmware guys implemented a new doorbell method to alleviate these problems triggered by bit 5 of the doorbell register. We want to use it if it's available. Signed-off-by: Stephen M.
