* bio-integrity: Add explicit field for owner of bip_bufKent Overstreet2013-03-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | This was the only real user of BIO_CLONED, which didn't have very clear semantics. Convert to its own flag so we can get rid of BIO_CLONED. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> CC: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
* block: Add an explicit bio flag for bios that own their bvecKent Overstreet2013-03-231-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | This is for the new bio splitting code. When we split a bio, if the split occured on a bvec boundry we reuse the bvec for the new bio. But that means bio_free() can't free it, hence the explicit flag. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

* block: Add bio_for_each_segment_all()Kent Overstreet2013-03-231-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __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.

* block: Add bio_advance()Kent Overstreet2013-03-231-0/+2

* block: Convert integrity to bvec_alloc_bs()Kent Overstreet2013-03-231-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a pointer to the bvec array to struct bio_integrity_payload, instead of the bvecs always being inline; then the bvecs are allocated with bvec_alloc_bs(). Changed bvec_alloc_bs() and bvec_free_bs() to take a pointer to a mempool instead of the bioset, so that bio integrity can use a different mempool for its bvecs, and thus avoid a potential deadlock. This is eventually for immutable bio vecs - immutable bvecs aren't useful if we still have to copy them, hence the need for the pointer. Less code is always nice too, though. Also, bio_integrity_alloc() was using fs_bio_set if no bio_set was specified. This was wrong - using the bio_set doesn't protect us from memory allocation failures, because we just used kmalloc for the bio_integrity_payload. But it does introduce the possibility of deadlock, if for some reason we weren't supposed to be using fs_bio_set.

* block: Fix a buffer overrun in bio_integrity_split()Kent Overstreet2013-03-231-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | bio_integrity_split() seemed to be confusing pointers and arrays - bip_vec in bio_integrity_payload was an array appended to the end of the payload, so the bio_vecs in struct bio_pair should have come after the bio_integrity_payload they're for. Fix it by making bip_vec a pointer to the inline vecs - a later patch is going to make more use of this pointer.

* block: Avoid deadlocks with bio allocation by stacking driversKent Overstreet2013-03-231-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, if we ever try to allocate more than once from the same bio set while running under generic_make_request() (i.e. a stacking block driver), we risk deadlock. This is because of the code in generic_make_request() that converts recursion to iteration; any bios we submit won't actually be submitted (so they can complete and eventually be freed) until after we return - this means if we allocate a second bio, we're blocking the first one from ever being freed. Thus if enough threads call into a stacking block driver at the same time with bios that need multiple splits, and the bio_set's reserve gets used up, we deadlock. This can be worked around in the driver code - we could check if we're running under generic_make_request(), then mask out __GFP_WAIT when we go to allocate a bio, and if the allocation fails punt to workqueue and retry the allocation. But this is tricky and not a generic solution. This patch solves it for all users by inverting the previously described technique. We allocate a rescuer workqueue for each bio_set, and then in the allocation code if there are bios on current->bio_list we would be blocking, we punt them to the rescuer workqueue to be submitted. This guarantees forward progress for bio allocations under generic_make_request() provided each bio is submitted before allocating the next, and provided the bios are freed after they complete. Note that this doesn't do anything for allocation from other mempools. Instead of allocating per bio data structures from a mempool, code should use bio_set's front_pad. Tested it by forcing the rescue codepath to be taken (by disabling the first GFP_NOWAIT) attempt, and then ran it with bcache (which does a lot of arbitrary bio splitting) and verified that the rescuer was being invoked.

* block: Implement support for WRITE SAMEMartin K. Petersen2012-09-201-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The WRITE SAME command supported on some SCSI devices allows the same block to be efficiently replicated throughout a block range. Only a single logical block is transferred from the host and the storage device writes the same data to all blocks described by the I/O. This patch implements support for WRITE SAME in the block layer. The blkdev_issue_write_same() function can be used by filesystems and block drivers to replicate a buffer across a block range. This can be used to efficiently initialize software RAID devices, etc. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

* block: Add bio_clone_bioset(), bio_clone_kmalloc()Kent Overstreet2012-09-091-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, there was bio_clone() but it only allocated from the fs bio set; as a result various users were open coding it and using __bio_clone(). This changes bio_clone() to become bio_clone_bioset(), and then we add bio_clone() and bio_clone_kmalloc() as wrappers around it, making use of the functionality the last patch adedd. This will also help in a later patch changing how bio cloning works.

* block: Consolidate bio_alloc_bioset(), bio_kmalloc()Kent Overstreet2012-09-091-4/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, bio_kmalloc() and bio_alloc_bioset() behaved slightly different because there was some almost-duplicated code - this fixes some of that. The important change is that previously bio_kmalloc() always set bi_io_vec = bi_inline_vecs, even if nr_iovecs == 0 - unlike bio_alloc_bioset(). This would cause bio_has_data() to return true; I don't know if this resulted in any actual bugs but it was certainly wrong. bio_kmalloc() and bio_alloc_bioset() also have different arbitrary limits on nr_iovecs - 1024 (UIO_MAXIOV) for bio_kmalloc(), 256 (BIO_MAX_PAGES) for bio_alloc_bioset(). This patch doesn't fix that, but at least they're enforced closer together and hopefully they will be fixed in a later patch. This'll also help with some future cleanups - there are a fair number of functions that allocate bios (e.g. bio_clone()), and now they don't have to be duplicated for bio_alloc(), bio_alloc_bioset(), and bio_kmalloc().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we've got generic code for freeing bios allocated from bio pools, this isn't needed anymore. This patch also makes bio_free() static, since without bi_destructor there should be no need for it to be called anywhere else. bio_free() is now only called from bio_put, so we can refactor those a bit - move some code from bio_put() to bio_free() and kill the redundant bio->bi_next = NULL. v5: Switch to BIO_KMALLOC_POOL ((void *)~0), per Boaz v6: BIO_KMALLOC_POOL now NULL, drop bio_free's EXPORT_SYMBOL v7: No #define BIO_KMALLOC_POOL anymore Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reusing bios is something that's been highly frowned upon in the past, but driver code keeps doing it anyways. If it's going to happen anyways, we should provide a generic method. This'll help with getting rid of bi_destructor - drivers/block/pktcdvd.c was open coding it, by doing a bio_init() and resetting bi_destructor. This required reordering struct bio, but the block layer is not yet nearly fast enough for any cacheline effects to matter here. v5: Add a define BIO_RESET_BITS, to be very explicit about what parts of bio->bi_flags are saved. v6: Further commenting verbosity, per Tejun v9: Add a function comment Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h was including <asm/bug.h> to pseudo link them. This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here is an example that violates the principle of least surprise: CC lib/string.o lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat': lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON' make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1 $ $ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c #include <linux/bug.h> $ We've included <linux/bug.h> for the BUG infrastructure and yet we still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh - very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development. With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are: 1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the implicit presence of BUG code. 2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code. 3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to <linux/bug.h> 4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain.

* / block: implement bio_associate_current()Tejun Heo2012-03-061-0/+8
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IO scheduling and cgroup are tied to the issuing task via io_context and cgroup of %current. Unfortunately, there are cases where IOs need to be routed via a different task which makes scheduling and cgroup limit enforcement applied completely incorrectly. For example, all bios delayed by blk-throttle end up being issued by a delayed work item and get assigned the io_context of the worker task which happens to serve the work item and dumped to the default block cgroup. This is double confusing as bios which aren't delayed end up in the correct cgroup and makes using blk-throttle and cfq propio together impossible. Any code which punts IO issuing to another task is affected which is getting more and more common (e.g. btrfs). As both io_context and cgroup are firmly tied to task including userland visible APIs to manipulate them, it makes a lot of sense to match up tasks to bios. This patch implements bio_associate_current() which associates the specified bio with %current. The bio will record the associated ioc and blkcg at that point and block layer will use the recorded ones regardless of which task actually ends up issuing the bio. bio release puts the associated ioc and blkcg. It grabs and remembers ioc and blkcg instead of the task itself because task may already be dead by the time the bio is issued making ioc and blkcg inaccessible and those are all block layer cares about. elevator_set_req_fn() is updated such that the bio elvdata is being allocated for is available to the elevator. This doesn't update block cgroup policies yet. Further patches will implement the support. -v2: #ifdef CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP added around bio->bi_ioc dereference in rq_ioc() to fix build breakage.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SCSI-ml needs a way to mark a request as flush request in q->prepare_flush_fn because it needs to identify them later (e.g. in q->request_fn or prep_rq_fn). queue_flush sets REQ_HARDBARRIER in rq->cmd_flags however the block layer also sends normal REQ_TYPE_FS requests with REQ_HARDBARRIER. So SCSI-ml can't use REQ_HARDBARRIER to identify flush requests. We could change the block layer to clear REQ_HARDBARRIER bit before sending non flush requests to the lower layers. However, intorudcing the new flag looks cleaner (surely easier). Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Cc: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de> Cc: David S.

* block: unify flags for struct bio and struct requestChristoph Hellwig2010-08-071-47/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too. This allows to more easily trace the type of I/O from the filesystem down to the block driver. There were two flags in the bio that were missing in the requests: BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD. Also I've renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them. Note that the flags are in bio.h despite having the REQ_ name - as blkdev.h includes bio.h that is the only way to go for now.

* block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's ↵Ilya Loginov2009-11-261-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pages Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So, this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from the dcache or with dcache aliases. The patch fixes this. The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which flush_dcache_page() is a no-op. Every architecture was provided with this flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is equal 1 or do nothing otherwise. See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion on LKML for more information.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bio and request use the same set of failfast bits. This patch makes the following changes to simplify things. * enumify BIO_RW* bits and reorder bits such that BIOS_RW_FAILFAST_* bits coincide with __REQ_FAILFAST_* bits. * The above pushes BIO_RW_AHEAD out of sync with __REQ_FAILFAST_DEV but the matching is useless anyway. init_request_from_bio() is responsible for setting FAILFAST bits on FS requests and non-FS requests never use BIO_RW_AHEAD. Drop the code and comment from blk_rq_bio_prep(). * Define REQ_FAILFAST_MASK which is OR of all FAILFAST bits and simplify FAILFAST flags handling in init_request_from_bio().

* block: Create bip slabs with embedded integrity vectorsMartin K. Petersen2009-07-011-6/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch restores stacking ability to the block layer integrity infrastructure by creating a set of dedicated bip slabs. Each bip slab has an embedded bio_vec array at the end. This cuts down on memory allocations and also simplifies the code compared to the original bvec version. Only the largest bip slab is backed by a mempool. The pool is contained in the bio_set so stacking drivers can ensure forward progress. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

* block: drop request->hard_* and *nr_sectorsTejun Heo2009-05-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct request has had a few different ways to represent some properties of a request. ->hard_* represent block layer's view of the request progress (completion cursor) and the ones without the prefix are supposed to represent the issue cursor and allowed to be updated as necessary by the low level drivers. The thing is that as block layer supports partial completion, the two cursors really aren't necessary and only cause confusion. In addition, manual management of request detail from low level drivers is cumbersome and error-prone at the very least. Another interesting duplicate fields are rq->[hard_]nr_sectors and rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors against rq->data_len and rq->bio->bi_size. This is more convoluted than the hard_ case. rq->[hard_]nr_sectors are initialized for requests with bio but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for !pc requests. rq->data_len is initialized for all request but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for pc requests. This causes good amount of confusion throughout block layer and its drivers and determining the request length has been a bit of black magic which may or may not work depending on circumstances and what the specific LLD is actually doing. rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors represent the number of sectors in the contiguous data area at the front. This is mainly used by drivers which transfers data by walking request segment-by-segment. This value always equals rq->bio->bi_size >> 9. However, data length for pc requests may not be multiple of 512 bytes and using this field becomes a bit confusing. In general, having multiple fields to represent the same property leads only to confusion and subtle bugs. With recent block low level driver cleanups, no driver is accessing or manipulating these duplicate fields directly. Drop all the duplicates. Now rq->sector means the current sector, rq->data_len the current total length and rq->bio->bi_size the current segment length. Everything else is defined in terms of these three and available only through accessors. * blk_recalc_rq_sectors() is collapsed into blk_update_request() and now handles pc and fs requests equally other than rq->sector update. This means that now pc requests can use partial completion too (no in-kernel user yet tho). * bio_cur_sectors() is replaced with bio_cur_bytes() as block layer now uses byte count as the primary data length. * blk_rq_pos() is now guranteed to be always correct. In-block users converted. * blk_rq_bytes() is now guaranteed to be always valid as is blk_rq_sectors(). In-block users converted. * blk_rq_sectors() is now guaranteed to equal blk_rq_bytes() >> 9. More convenient one is used. * blk_rq_bytes() and blk_rq_cur_bytes() are now inlined and take const pointer to request.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix bio_kmalloc() and its destruction path bio_kmalloc() was broken in two ways. * bvec_alloc_bs() first allocates bvec using kmalloc() and then ignores it and allocates again like non-kmalloc bvecs. * bio_kmalloc_destructor() didn't check for and free bio integrity data. This patch fixes the above problems. kmalloc patch is separated out from bio_alloc_bioset() and allocates the requested number of bvecs as inline bvecs. * bio_alloc_bioset() no longer takes NULL @bs. None other than bio_kmalloc() used it and outside users can't know how it was allocated anyway. * Define and use BIO_POOL_NONE so that pool index check in bvec_free_bs() triggers if inline or kmalloc allocated bvec gets there. * Relocate destructors on top of each allocation function so that how they're used is more clear.

* block: Add flag for telling the IO schedulers NOT to anticipate more IOJens Axboe2009-04-061-8/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, CFQ will anticipate more IO from a given io context if the previously completed IO was sync. This used to be fine, since the only sync IO was reads and O_DIRECT writes. But with more "normal" sync writes being used now, we don't want to anticipate for those. Add a bio/request flag that informs the IO scheduler that this is a sync request that we should not idle for. Introduce WRITE_ODIRECT specifically for O_DIRECT writes, and make sure that the other sync writes set this flag.
