2016-09-23cfq: fix starvation of asynchronous writesGlauber Costa
While debugging timeouts happening in my application workload (ScyllaDB), I have observed calls to open() taking a long time, ranging everywhere from 2 seconds - the first ones that are enough to time out my application - to more than 30 seconds. The problem seems to happen because XFS may block on pending metadata updates under certain circumnstances, and that's confirmed with the following backtrace taken by the offcputime tool (iovisor/bcc): ffffffffb90c57b1 finish_task_switch ffffffffb97dffb5 schedule ffffffffb97e310c schedule_timeout ffffffffb97e1f12 __down ffffffffb90ea821 down ffffffffc046a9dc xfs_buf_lock ffffffffc046abfb _xfs_buf_find ffffffffc046ae4a xfs_buf_get_map ffffffffc046babd xfs_buf_read_map ffffffffc0499931 xfs_trans_read_buf_map ffffffffc044a561 xfs_da_read_buf ffffffffc0451390 xfs_dir3_leaf_read.constprop.16 ffffffffc0452b90 xfs_dir2_leaf_lookup_int ffffffffc0452e0f xfs_dir2_leaf_lookup ffffffffc044d9d3 xfs_dir_lookup ffffffffc047d1d9 xfs_lookup ffffffffc0479e53 xfs_vn_lookup ffffffffb925347a path_openat ffffffffb9254a71 do_filp_open ffffffffb9242a94 do_sys_open ffffffffb9242b9e sys_open ffffffffb97e42b2 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath 00007fb0698162ed [unknown] Inspecting my run with blktrace, I can see that the xfsaild kthread exhibit very high "Dispatch wait" times, on the dozens of seconds range and consistent with the open() times I have saw in that run. Still from the blktrace output, we can after searching a bit, identify the request that wasn't dispatched: 8,0 11 152 81.092472813 804 A WM 141698288 + 8 <- (8,1) 141696240 8,0 11 153 81.092472889 804 Q WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1] 8,0 11 154 81.092473207 804 G WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1] 8,0 11 206 81.092496118 804 I WM 141698288 + 8 ( 22911) [xfsaild/sda1] <==== 'I' means Inserted (into the IO scheduler) ===================================> 8,0 0 289372 96.718761435 0 D WM 141698288 + 8 (15626265317) [swapper/0] <==== Only 15s later the CFQ scheduler dispatches the request ======================> As we can see above, in this particular example CFQ took 15 seconds to dispatch this request. Going back to the full trace, we can see that the xfsaild queue had plenty of opportunity to run, and it was selected as the active queue many times. It would just always be preempted by something else (example): 8,0 1 0 81.117912979 0 m N cfq1618SN / insert_request 8,0 1 0 81.117913419 0 m N cfq1618SN / add_to_rr 8,0 1 0 81.117914044 0 m N cfq1618SN / preempt 8,0 1 0 81.117914398 0 m N cfq767A / slice expired t=1 8,0 1 0 81.117914755 0 m N cfq767A / resid=40 8,0 1 0 81.117915340 0 m N / served: vt=1948520448 min_vt=1948520448 8,0 1 0 81.117915858 0 m N cfq767A / sl_used=1 disp=0 charge=0 iops=1 sect=0 where cfq767 is the xfsaild queue and cfq1618 corresponds to one of the ScyllaDB IO dispatchers. The requests preempting the xfsaild queue are synchronous requests. That's a characteristic of ScyllaDB workloads, as we only ever issue O_DIRECT requests. While it can be argued that preempting ASYNC requests in favor of SYNC is part of the CFQ logic, I don't believe that doing so for 15+ seconds is anyone's goal. Moreover, unless I am misunderstanding something, that breaks the expectation set by the "fifo_expire_async" tunable, which in my system is set to the default. Looking at the code, it seems to me that the issue is that after we make an async queue active, there is no guarantee that it will execute any request. When the queue itself tests if it cfq_may_dispatch() it can bail if it sees SYNC requests in flight. An incoming request from another queue can also preempt it in such situation before we have the chance to execute anything (as seen in the trace above). This patch sets the must_dispatch flag if we notice that we have requests that are already fifo_expired. This flag is always cleared after cfq_dispatch_request() returns from cfq_dispatch_requests(), so it won't pin the queue for subsequent requests (unless they are themselves expired) Care is taken during preempt to still allow rt requests to preempt us regardless. Testing my workload with this patch applied produces much better results. From the application side I see no timeouts, and the open() latency histogram generated by systemtap looks much better, with the worst outlier at 131ms: Latency histogram of xfs_buf_lock acquisition (microseconds): value |-------------------------------------------------- count 0 | 11 1 |@@@@ 161 2 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 1966 4 |@ 54 8 | 36 16 | 7 32 | 0 64 | 0 ~ 1024 | 0 2048 | 0 4096 | 1 8192 | 1 16384 | 2 32768 | 0 65536 | 0 131072 | 1 262144 | 0 524288 | 0 Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glauber@scylladb.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> CC: linux-block@vger.kernel.org CC: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glauber@scylladb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2016-09-19blk-throttle: Extend slice if throttle group is not emptyVivek Goyal
Right now, if slice is expired, we start a new slice. If a bio is queued, we keep on extending slice by throtle_slice interval (100ms). This worked well as long as pending timer function got executed with-in few milli seconds of scheduled time. But looks like with recent changes in timer subsystem, slack can be much longer depending on the expiry time of the scheduled timer. commit 500462a9de65 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel") This means, by the time timer function gets executed, it is possible the delay from scheduled time is more than 100ms. That means current code will conclude that existing slice has expired and a new one needs to be started. New slice will be 100ms by default and that will not be sufficient to meet rate requirement of group given the bio size and bio will not be dispatched and we will start a new timer function to wait. And when that timer expires, same process will repeat and we will wait again and this can easily be an infinite loop. Solve this issue by starting a new slice only if throttle gropup is empty. If it is not empty, that means there should be an active slice going on. Ideally it should not be expired but given the slack, it is possible that it has expired.

2016-09-15blk-mq: don't redistribute hardware queues on a CPU hotplug eventChristoph Hellwig
Currently blk-mq will totally remap hardware context when a CPU hotplug even happened, which causes major havoc for drivers, as they are never told about this remapping. E.g. any carefully sorted out CPU affinity will just be completely messed up. The rebuild also doesn't really help for the common case of cpu hotplug, which is soft onlining / offlining of cpus - in this case we should just leave the queue and irq mapping as is. If it actually worked it would have helped in the case of physical cpu hotplug, although for that we'd need a way to actually notify the driver. Note that drivers may already be able to accommodate such a topology change on their own, e.g. using the reset_controller sysfs file in NVMe will cause the driver to get things right for this case. With the rebuild removed we will simplify retain the queue mapping for a soft offlined CPU that will work when it comes back online, and will map any newly onlined CPU to queue 0 until the driver initiates a rebuild of the queue map.

We do this in a few places, if the CPU is offline. This isn't allowed, though, since on multi queue hardware, we can't just move a request from one software queue to another, if they map to different hardware queues. The request and tag isn't valid on another hardware queue. This can happen if plugging races with CPU offlining. But it does no harm, since it can only happen in the window where we are currently busy freezing the queue and flushing IO, in preparation for redoing the software <-> hardware queue mappings.

2016-08-24block: make sure a big bio is split into at most 256 bvecsMing Lei
After arbitrary bio size was introduced, the incoming bio may be very big. We have to split the bio into small bios so that each holds at most BIO_MAX_PAGES bvecs for safety reason, such as bio_clone().

2016-08-04block: fix bdi vs gendisk lifetime mismatchDan Williams
The name for a bdi of a gendisk is derived from the gendisk's devt. However, since the gendisk is destroyed before the bdi it leaves a window where a new gendisk could dynamically reuse the same devt while a bdi with the same name is still live. Arrange for the bdi to hold a reference against its "owner" disk device while it is registered. Otherwise we can hit sysfs duplicate name collisions like the following: WARNING: CPU: 10 PID: 2078 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x64/0x80 sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/bdi/259:1' Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL580 Gen8, BIOS P79 05/06/2015 0000000000000286 0000000002c04ad5 ffff88006f24f970 ffffffff8134caec ffff88006f24f9c0 0000000000000000 ffff88006f24f9b0 ffffffff8108c351 0000001f0000000c ffff88105d236000 ffff88105d1031e0 ffff8800357427f8 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8134caec>] dump_stack+0x63/0x87 [<ffffffff8108c351>] __warn+0xd1/0xf0 [<ffffffff8108c3cf>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x5f/0x80 [<ffffffff812a0d34>] sysfs_warn_dup+0x64/0x80 [<ffffffff812a0e1e>] sysfs_create_dir_ns+0x7e/0x90 [<ffffffff8134faaa>] kobject_add_internal+0xaa/0x320 [<ffffffff81358d4e>] ? vsnprintf+0x34e/0x4d0 [<ffffffff8134ff55>] kobject_add+0x75/0xd0 [<ffffffff816e66b2>] ? mutex_lock+0x12/0x2f [<ffffffff8148b0a5>] device_add+0x125/0x610 [<ffffffff8148b788>] device_create_groups_vargs+0xd8/0x100 [<ffffffff8148b7cc>] device_create_vargs+0x1c/0x20 [<ffffffff811b775c>] bdi_register+0x8c/0x180 [<ffffffff811b7877>] bdi_register_dev+0x27/0x30 [<ffffffff813317f5>] add_disk+0x175/0x4a0 Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Reported-by: Yi Zhang <yizhan@redhat.com> Tested-by: Yi Zhang <yizhan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Fixed up missing 0 return in bdi_register_owner().

2016-08-04blk-mq: Allow timeouts to run while queue is freezingGabriel Krisman Bertazi
In case a submitted request gets stuck for some reason, the block layer can prevent the request starvation by starting the scheduled timeout work. If this stuck request occurs at the same time another thread has started a queue freeze, the blk_mq_timeout_work will not be able to acquire the queue reference and will return silently, thus not issuing the timeout. But since the request is already holding a q_usage_counter reference and is unable to complete, it will never release its reference, preventing the queue from completing the freeze started by first thread. This puts the request_queue in a hung state, forever waiting for the freeze completion. This was observed while running IO to a NVMe device at the same time we toggled the CPU hotplug code. Eventually, once a request got stuck requiring a timeout during a queue freeze, we saw the CPU Hotplug notification code get stuck inside blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait, as shown in the trace below.

This can be achieved with percpu_refcount_tryget, which does not require the counter to be alive. This way the timeout work can do it's job and terminate a stuck request even during a freeze, returning its reference and avoiding the deadlock. Allowing the timeout to run is just a part of the fix, since for some devices, we might get stuck again inside the device driver's timeout handler, should it attempt to allocate a new request in that path - which is a quite common action for Abort commands, which need to be sent after a timeout. In NVMe, for instance, we call blk_mq_alloc_request from inside the timeout handler, which will fail during a freeze, since it also tries to acquire a queue reference. I considered a similar change to blk_mq_alloc_request as a generic solution for further device driver hangs, but we can't do that, since it would allow new requests to disturb the freeze process. I thought about creating a new function in the block layer to support unfreezable requests for these occasions, but after working on it for a while, I feel like this should be handled in a per-driver basis. I'm now experimenting with changes to the NVMe timeout path, but I'm open to suggestions of ways to make this generic.

2016-08-04block: add missing group association in bio-cloning functionsPaolo Valente
When a bio is cloned, the newly created bio must be associated with the same blkcg as the original bio (if BLK_CGROUP is enabled). If this operation is not performed, then the new bio is not associated with any group, and the group of the current task is returned when the group of the bio is requested. Depending on the cloning frequency, this may cause a large percentage of the bios belonging to a given group to be treated as if belonging to other groups (in most cases as if belonging to the root group). The expected group isolation may thereby be broken. This commit adds the missing association in bio-cloning functions.
