2014-04-09md/raid1: r1buf_pool_alloc: free allocate pages when subsequent allocation ↵NeilBrown
fails. When performing a user-request check/repair (MD_RECOVERY_REQUEST is set) on a raid1, we allocate multiple bios each with their own set of pages. If the page allocations for one bio fails, we currently do *not* free the pages allocated for the previous bios, nor do we free the bio itself. This patch frees all the already-allocate pages, and makes sure that all the bios are freed as well. This bug can cause a memory leak which can ultimately OOM a machine. It was introduced in 3.10-rc1.

2014-02-05md/raid1: restore ability for check and repair to fix read errors.NeilBrown
commit 30bc9b53878a9921b02e3b5bc4283ac1c6de102a md/raid1: fix bio handling problems in process_checks() Move the bio_reset() to a point before where BIO_UPTODATE is checked, so that check now always report that the bio is uptodate, even if it is not. This causes process_check() to sometimes treat read-errors as successful matches so the good data isn't written out. This patch preserves the flag until it is needed. Bug was introduced in 3.11, but backported to 3.10-stable (as it fixed an even worse bug). So suitable for any -stable since 3.10.

2014-01-14md/raid1: fix request counting bug in new 'barrier' code.NeilBrown
The new iobarrier implementation in raid1 (which keeps normal writes and resync activity separate) counts every request what is not before the current resync point in either next_window_requests or current_window_requests. It flags that the request is counted by setting ->start_next_window. allow_barrier follows this model exactly and decrements one of the *_window_requests if and only if ->start_next_window is set. However wait_barrier(), which increments *_window_requests uses a slightly different test for setting -.start_next_window (which is set from the return value of this function). So there is a possibility of the counts getting out of sync, and this leads to the resync hanging. So change wait_barrier() to return a non-zero value in exactly the same cases that it increments *_window_requests. But was introduced in 3.13-rc1.

2013-11-19raid1: Rewrite the implementation of iobarrier.majianpeng
There is an iobarrier in raid1 because of contention between normal IO and resync IO. It suspends all normal IO when resync/recovery happens. However if normal IO is out side the resync window, there is no contention. So this patch changes the barrier mechanism to only block IO that could contend with the resync that is currently happening. We partition the whole space into five parts. |---------|-----------|------------|----------------|-------| start next_resync start_next_window end_window start + RESYNC_WINDOW = next_resync next_resync + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE = start_next_window start_next_window + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE = end_window Firstly we introduce some concepts: 1 - RESYNC_WINDOW: For resync, there are 32 resync requests at most at the same time. A sync request is RESYNC_BLOCK_SIZE(64*1024). So the RESYNC_WINDOW is 32 * RESYNC_BLOCK_SIZE, that is 2MB. 2 - NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE: the distance between next_resync and start_next_window. It also indicates the distance between start_next_window and end_window. It is currently 3 * RESYNC_WINDOW_SIZE but could be tuned if this turned out not to be optimal. 3 - next_resync: the next sector at which we will do sync IO. 4 - start: a position which is at most RESYNC_WINDOW before next_resync. 5 - start_next_window: a position which is NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE beyond next_resync. Normal-io after this position doesn't need to wait for resync-io to complete. 6 - end_window: a position which is 2 * NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE beyond next_resync. This also doesn't need to wait, but is counted differently. 7 - current_window_requests: the count of normalIO between start_next_window and end_window. 8 - next_window_requests: the count of normalIO after end_window. NormalIO will be partitioned into four types: NormIO1: the end sector of bio is smaller or equal the start NormIO2: the start sector of bio larger or equal to end_window NormIO3: the start sector of bio larger or equal to start_next_window. NormIO4: the location between start_next_window and end_window |--------|-----------|--------------------|----------------|-------------| | start | next_resync | start_next_window | end_window | NormIO1 NormIO4 NormIO4 NormIO3 NormIO2 For NormIO1, we don't need any io barrier. For NormIO4, we used a similar approach to the original iobarrier mechanism. The normalIO and resyncIO must be kept separate. For NormIO2/3, we add two fields to struct r1conf: "current_window_requests" and "next_window_requests". They indicate the count of active requests in the two window. For these, we don't wait for resync io to complete. For resync action, if there are NormIO4s, we must wait for it. If not, we can proceed. But if resync action reaches start_next_window and current_window_requests > 0 (that is there are NormIO3s), we must wait until the current_window_requests becomes zero. When current_window_requests becomes zero, start_next_window also moves forward. Then current_window_requests will replaced by next_window_requests. There is a problem which when and how to change from NormIO2 to NormIO3. Only then can sync action progress. We add a field in struct r1conf "start_next_window". A: if start_next_window == MaxSector, it means there are no NormIO2/3. So start_next_window = next_resync + NEXT_NORMALIO_DISTANCE B: if current_window_requests == 0 && next_window_requests != 0, it means start_next_window move to end_window There is another problem which how to differentiate between old NormIO2(now it is NormIO3) and NormIO2. For example, there are many bios which are NormIO2 and a bio which is NormIO3. NormIO3 firstly completed, so the bios of NormIO2 became NormIO3. We add a field in struct r1bio "start_next_window". This is used to record the position conf->start_next_window when the call to wait_barrier() is made in make_request(). In allow_barrier(), we check the conf->start_next_window. If r1bio->stat_next_window == conf->start_next_window, it means there is no transition between NormIO2 and NormIO3. If r1bio->start_next_window != conf->start_next_window, it mean there was a transition between NormIO2 and NormIO3. There can only have been one transition. So it only means the bio is old NormIO2. For one bio, there may be many r1bio's. So we make sure all the r1bio->start_next_window are the same value. If we met blocked_dev in make_request(), it must call allow_barrier and wait_barrier. So the former and the later value of conf->start_next_window will be change. If there are many r1bio's with differnet start_next_window, for the relevant bio, it depend on the last value of r1bio. It will cause error. To avoid this, we must wait for previous r1bios to complete. Signed-off-by: Jianpeng Ma <majianpeng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

2013-10-24md: Fix skipping recovery for read-only arrays.Lukasz Dorau
Since: commit 7ceb17e87bde79d285a8b988cfed9eaeebe60b86 md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array. spares are activated on a read-only array. In case of raid1 and raid10 personalities it causes that not-in-sync devices are marked in-sync without checking if recovery has been finished. If a read-only array is degraded and one of its devices is not in-sync (because the array has been only partially recovered) recovery will be skipped. This patch adds checking if recovery has been finished before marking a device in-sync for raid1 and raid10 personalities. In case of raid5 personality such condition is already present (at raid5.c:6029). Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption.

2013-07-18md/raid1: fix bio handling problems in process_checks()NeilBrown
Recent change to use bio_copy_data() in raid1 when repairing an array is faulty. The underlying may have changed the bio in various ways using bio_advance and these need to be undone not just for the 'sbio' which is being copied to, but also the 'pbio' (primary) which is being copied from. So perform the reset on all bios that were read from and do it early. This also ensure that the sbio->bi_io_vec[j].bv_len passed to memcmp is correct. This fixes a crash during a 'check' of a RAID1 array. The crash was introduced in 3.10 so this is suitable for 3.10-stable.

If any are found to be marked as failed and their superblocks can be read, an attempt is made to reintegrate them into the array.

2013-06-13md/raid1,5,10: Disable WRITE SAME until a recovery strategy is in placeH. Peter Anvin
There are cases where the kernel will believe that the WRITE SAME command is supported by a block device which does not, in fact, support WRITE SAME. This currently happens for SATA drivers behind a SAS controller, but there are probably a hundred other ways that can happen, including drive firmware bugs. After receiving an error for WRITE SAME the block layer will retry the request as a plain write of zeroes, but mdraid will consider the failure as fatal and consider the drive failed. This has the effect that all the mirrors containing a specific set of data are each offlined in very rapid succession resulting in data loss. However, just bouncing the request back up to the block layer isn't ideal either, because the whole initial request-retry sequence should be inside the write bitmap fence, which probably means that md needs to do its own conversion of WRITE SAME to write zero. Until the failure scenario has been sorted out, disable WRITE SAME for raid1, raid5, and raid10. [neilb: added raid5] This patch is appropriate for any -stable since 3.7 when write_same support was added. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: H.

2013-06-13md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places.NeilBrown
Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they really should call freeze_array. The former is only intended to be called from "make_request". The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the management thread. Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock. Using freeze_array should not. As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore. The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits 050b66152f87c7 (raid10) and 6b740b8d79252f13 (raid1) which appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable kernel since then. This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and will need to be applied by hand.

2013-06-13md/raid1: consider WRITE as successful only if at least one non-Faulty and ↵Alex Lyakas
non-rebuilding drive completed it. Without that fix, the following scenario could happen: - RAID1 with drives A and B; drive B was freshly-added and is rebuilding - Drive A fails - WRITE request arrives to the array. It is failed by drive A, so r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_WriteError, but the rebuilding drive B succeeds in writing it, so the same r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_Uptodate. - r1_bio arrives to handle_write_finished, badblocks are disabled, md_error()->error() does nothing because we don't fail the last drive of raid1 - raid_end_bio_io() calls call_bio_endio() - As a result, in call_bio_endio(): if (!test_bit(R1BIO_Uptodate, &r1_bio->state)) clear_bit(BIO_UPTODATE, &bio->bi_flags); this code doesn't clear the BIO_UPTODATE flag, and the whole master WRITE succeeds, back to the upper layer. So we returned success to the upper layer, even though we had written the data onto the rebuilding drive only. But when we want to read the data back, we would not read from the rebuilding drive, so this data is lost. [neilb - applied identical change to raid10 as well] This bug can result in lost data, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel.

More prep work for immutable bvecs: A few places in the code were either open coding or using the wrong version - fix. After we introduce the bvec iter, it'll no longer be possible to modify the biovec through bio_for_each_segment_all() - it doesn't increment a pointer to the current bvec, you pass in a struct bio_vec (not a pointer) which is updated with what the current biovec would be (taking into account bi_bvec_done and bi_size).

__bio_for_each_segment() iterates bvecs from the specified index instead of bio->bv_idx. Currently, the only usage is to walk all the bvecs after the bio has been advanced by specifying 0 index. For immutable bvecs, we need to split these apart; bio_for_each_segment() is going to have a different implementation. This will also help document the intent of code that's using it - bio_for_each_segment_all() is only legal to use for code that owns the bio.

2013-02-26md/raid1,raid10: fix deadlock with freeze_array()NeilBrown
When raid1/raid10 needs to fix a read error, it first drains all pending requests by calling freeze_array(). This calls flush_pending_writes() if it needs to sleep, but some writes may be pending in a per-process plug rather than in the per-array request queue. When raid1{,0}_unplug() moves the request from the per-process plug to the per-array request queue (from which flush_pending_writes() can flush them), it needs to wake up freeze_array(), or freeze_array() will never flush them and so it will block forever. So add the requires wake_up() calls. This bug was introduced by commit f54a9d0e59c4bea3db733921ca9147612a6f292c for raid1 and a similar commit for RAID10, and so has been present since linux-3.6. As the bug causes a deadlock I believe this fix is suitable for -stable.

2012-11-30wait: add wait_event_lock_irq() interfaceLukas Czerner
New wait_event{_interruptible}_lock_irq{_cmd} macros added. This commit moves the private wait_event_lock_irq() macro from MD to regular wait includes, introduces new macro wait_event_lock_irq_cmd() instead of using the old method with omitting cmd parameter which is ugly and makes a use of new macros in the MD. It also introduces the _interruptible_ variant. The use of new interface is when one have a special lock to protect data structures used in the condition, or one also needs to invoke "cmd" before putting it to sleep. All new macros are expected to be called with the lock taken. The lock is released before sleep and is reacquired afterwards. We will leave the macro with the lock held. Note to DM: IMO this should also fix theoretical race on waitqueue while using simultaneously wait_event_lock_irq() and wait_event() because of lack of locking around current state setting and wait queue removal.

2012-11-27md/raid1{,0}: fix deadlock in bitmap_unplug.NeilBrown
If the raid1 or raid10 unplug function gets called from a make_request function (which is very possible) when there are bios on the current->bio_list list, then it will not be able to successfully call bitmap_unplug() and it could need to submit more bios and wait for them to complete. But they won't complete while current->bio_list is non-empty. So detect that case and handle the unplugging off to another thread just like we already do when called from within the scheduler. RAID1 version of bug was introduced in 3.6, so that part of fix is suitable for 3.6.y. RAID10 part won't apply.

2012-10-31md/raid1: Fix assembling of arrays containing Replacements.NeilBrown
setup_conf in raid1.c uses conf->raid_disks before assigning a value. It is used when including 'Replacement' devices. The consequence is that assembling an array which contains a replacement will misbehave and either not include the replacement, or not include the device being replaced. Though this doesn't lead directly to data corruption, it could lead to reduced data safety. So use mddev->raid_disks, which is initialised, instead. Bug was introduced by commit c19d57980b38a5bb613a898937a1cf85f422fb9b md/raid1: recognise replacements when assembling arrays. in 3.3, so fix is suitable for 3.3.y thru 3.6.y.

2012-07-31md: remove plug_cnt feature of plugging.NeilBrown
This seemed like a good idea at the time, but after further thought I cannot see it making a difference other than very occasionally and testing to try to exercise the case it is most likely to help did not show any performance difference by removing it. So remove the counting of active plugs and allow 'pending writes' to be activated at any time, not just when no plugs are active. This is only relevant when there is a write-intent bitmap, and the updating of the bitmap will likely introduce enough delay that the single-threading of bitmap updates will be enough to collect large numbers of updates together. Removing this will make it easier to centralise the unplug code, and will clear the other for other unplug enhancements which have a measurable effect.

2012-07-31md/raid1: don't abort a resync on the first badblock.NeilBrown
If a resync of a RAID1 array with 2 devices finds a known bad block one device it will neither read from, or write to, that device for this block offset. So there will be one read_target (The other device) and zero write targets. This condition causes md/raid1 to abort the resync assuming that it has finished - without known bad blocks this would be true. When there are no write targets because of the presence of bad blocks we should only skip over the area covered by the bad block. RAID10 already gets this right, raid1 doesn't. Or didn't. As this can cause a 'sync' to abort early and appear to have succeeded it could lead to some data corruption, so it suitable for -stable.

2012-07-31md/raid1: prevent merging too large requestShaohua Li
For SSD, if request size exceeds specific value (optimal io size), request size isn't important for bandwidth. In such condition, if making request size bigger will cause some disks idle, the total throughput will actually drop. A good example is doing a readahead in a two-disk raid1 setup. So when should we split big requests? We absolutly don't want to split big request to very small requests. Even in SSD, big request transfer is more efficient. This patch only considers request with size above optimal io size. If all disks are busy, is it worth doing a split? Say optimal io size is 16k, two requests 32k and two disks. We can let each disk run one 32k request, or split the requests to 4 16k requests and each disk runs two. It's hard to say which case is better, depending on hardware. So only consider case where there are idle disks. For readahead, split is always better in this case. And in my test, below patch can improve > 30% thoughput. Hmm, not 100%, because disk isn't 100% busy. Such case can happen not just in readahead, for example, in directio. But I suppose directio usually will have bigger IO depth and make all disks busy, so I ignored it. Note: if the raid uses any hard disk, we don't prevent merging. That will make performace worse.

2012-07-31md/raid1: read balance chooses idlest disk for SSDShaohua Li
SSD hasn't spindle, distance between requests means nothing. And the original distance based algorithm sometimes can cause severe performance issue for SSD raid. Considering two thread groups, one accesses file A, the other access file B. The first group will access one disk and the second will access the other disk, because requests are near from one group and far between groups. In this case, read balance might keep one disk very busy but the other relative idle. For SSD, we should try best to distribute requests to as many disks as possible. There isn't spindle move penality anyway. With below patch, I can see more than 50% throughput improvement sometimes depending on workloads. The only exception is small requests can be merged to a big request which typically can drive higher throughput for SSD too. Such small requests are sequential reads. Unlike hard disk, sequential read which can't be merged (for example direct IO, or read without readahead) can be ignored for SSD. Again there is no spindle move penality. readahead dispatches small requests and such requests can be merged. Last patch can help detect sequential read well, at least if concurrent read number isn't greater than raid disk number. In that case, distance based algorithm doesn't work well too. V2: For hard disk and SSD mixed raid, doesn't use distance based algorithm for random IO too. This makes the algorithm generic for raid with SSD.
