The system-wide registry of syntax types (string/enum/int32/oct32/.../etc.) is gone and so is the horror switch() in fs_parse() that would have to grow another case every time something got added to that system-wide registry. New syntax types can be added by filesystems easily now, and their namespace is that of functions - not of system-wide enum members. IOW, they can be shared or kept private and if some turn out to be widely useful, we can make them common library helpers, etc., without having to do anything whatsoever to fs_parse() itself. And we already get that kind of requests - the thing that finally pushed me into doing that was "oh, and let's add one for timeouts - things like 15s or 2h". If some filesystem really wants that, let them do it. Without somebody having to play gatekeeper for the variants blessed by direct support in fs_parse(), TYVM. Quite a bit of boilerplate is gone.

2020-02-07Pass consistent param->type to fs_parse()Al Viro
As it is, vfs_parse_fs_string() makes "foo" and "foo=" indistinguishable; both get fs_value_is_string for ->type and NULL for ->string. To make it even more unpleasant, that combination is impossible to produce with fsconfig(). Much saner rules would be "foo" => fs_value_is_flag, NULL "foo=" => fs_value_is_string, "" "foo=bar" => fs_value_is_string, "bar" All cases are distinguishable, all results are expressable by fsconfig(), ->has_value checks are much simpler that way (to the point of the field being useless) and quite a few regressions go away (gfs2 has no business accepting -o nodebug=, for example).

2020-01-31zram: try to avoid worst-case scenario on same element pagesTaejoon Song
The worst-case scenario on finding same element pages is that almost all elements are same at the first glance but only last few elements are different. Since the same element tends to be grouped from the beginning of the pages, if we check the first element with the last element before looping through all elements, we might have some chances to quickly detect non-same element pages. 1. Test is done under LG webOS TV (64-bit arch) 2. Dump the swap-out pages (~819200 pages) 3. Analyze the pages with simple test script which counts the iteration number and measures the speed at off-line Under 64-bit arch, the worst iteration count is PAGE_SIZE / 8 bytes = 512. The speed is based on the time to consume page_same_filled() function only. The result, on average, is listed as below: Num of Iter Speed(MB/s) Looping-Forward (Orig) 38 99265 Looping-Backward 36 102725 Last-element-check (This Patch) 33 125072 The result shows that the average iteration count decreases by 13% and the speed increases by 25% with this patch. This patch does not increase the overall time complexity, though. I also ran simpler version which uses backward loop. Just looping backward also makes some improvement, but less than this patch.

2020-01-29xen/blkfront: limit allocated memory size to actual use caseJuergen Gross
Today the Xen blkfront driver allocates memory for one struct blkfront_ring_info for each communication ring. This structure is statically sized for the maximum supported configuration resulting in a size of more than 90 kB. As the main size contributor is one array inside the struct, the memory allocation can easily be limited by moving this array to be the last structure element and to allocate only the memory for the actually needed array size.

When kzalloc fail, may cause trying to destroy the workqueue from inside the workqueue. If num_connections is m (2 < m), and NO.1 ~ NO.n (1 < n < m) kzalloc are successful. The NO.(n + 1) failed. Then, nbd_start_device will return ENOMEM to nbd_start_device_ioctl, and nbd_start_device_ioctl will return immediately without running flush_workqueue. However, we still have n recv threads. If nbd_release run first, recv threads may have to drop the last config_refs and try to destroy the workqueue from inside the workqueue. To fix it, add a flush_workqueue in nbd_start_device.

2020-01-29xen/blkback: Squeeze page pools if a memory pressure is detectedSeongJae Park
Each `blkif` has a free pages pool for the grant mapping. The size of the pool starts from zero and is increased on demand while processing the I/O requests. If current I/O requests handling is finished or 100 milliseconds has passed since last I/O requests handling, it checks and shrinks the pool to not exceed the size limit, `max_buffer_pages`. Therefore, host administrators can cause memory pressure in blkback by attaching a large number of block devices and inducing I/O. Such problematic situations can be avoided by limiting the maximum number of devices that can be attached, but finding the optimal limit is not so easy. Improper set of the limit can results in memory pressure or a resource underutilization. This commit avoids such problematic situations by squeezing the pools (returns every free page in the pool to the system) for a while (users can set this duration via a module parameter) if memory pressure is detected. Discussions =========== The `blkback`'s original shrinking mechanism returns only pages in the pool which are not currently be used by `blkback` to the system. In other words, the pages that are not mapped with granted pages. Because this commit is changing only the shrink limit but still uses the same freeing mechanism it does not touch pages which are currently mapping grants. Once memory pressure is detected, this commit keeps the squeezing limit for a user-specified time duration. The duration should be neither too long nor too short. If it is too long, the squeezing incurring overhead can reduce the I/O performance. If it is too short, `blkback` will not free enough pages to reduce the memory pressure. This commit sets the value as `10 milliseconds` by default because it is a short time in terms of I/O while it is a long time in terms of memory operations. Also, as the original shrinking mechanism works for at least every 100 milliseconds, this could be a somewhat reasonable choice. I also tested other durations (refer to the below section for more details) and confirmed that 10 milliseconds is the one that works best with the test. That said, the proper duration depends on actual configurations and workloads. That's why this commit allows users to set the duration as a module parameter. Memory Pressure Test ==================== To show how this commit fixes the memory pressure situation well, I configured a test environment on a xen-running virtualization system. On the `blkfront` running guest instances, I attach a large number of network-backed volume devices and induce I/O to those. Meanwhile, I measure the number of pages that swapped in (pswpin) and out (pswpout) on the `blkback` running guest. The test ran twice, once for the `blkback` before this commit and once for that after this commit. As shown below, this commit has dramatically reduced the memory pressure: pswpin pswpout before 76,672 185,799 after 867 3,967 Optimal Aggressive Shrinking Duration ------------------------------------- To find a best squeezing duration, I repeated the test with three different durations (1ms, 10ms, and 100ms). The results are as below: duration pswpin pswpout 1 707 5,095 10 867 3,967 100 362 3,348 As expected, the memory pressure decreases as the duration increases, but the reduction become slow from the `10ms`. Based on this results, I chose the default duration as 10ms. Performance Overhead Test ========================= This commit could incur I/O performance degradation under severe memory pressure because the squeezing will require more page allocations per I/O. To show the overhead, I artificially made a worst-case squeezing situation and measured the I/O performance of a `blkfront` running guest. For the artificial squeezing, I set the `blkback.max_buffer_pages` using the `/sys/module/xen_blkback/parameters/max_buffer_pages` file. In this test, I set the value to `1024` and `0`. The `1024` is the default value. Setting the value as `0` is same to a situation doing the squeezing always (worst-case). If the underlying block device is slow enough, the squeezing overhead could be hidden. For the reason, I use a fast block device, namely the rbd[1]: # xl block-attach guest phy:/dev/ram0 xvdb w For the I/O performance measurement, I run a simple `dd` command 5 times directly to the device as below and collect the 'MB/s' results. $ for i in {1..5}; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/xvdb \ bs=4k count=$((256*512)); sync; done The results are as below. 'max_pgs' represents the value of the `blkback.max_buffer_pages` parameter. max_pgs Min Max Median Avg Stddev 0 417 423 420 419.4 2.5099801 1024 414 425 416 417.8 4.4384682 No difference proven at 95.0% confidence In short, even worst case squeezing on ramdisk based fast block device makes no visible performance degradation. Please note that this is just a very simple and minimal test. On systems using super-fast block devices and a special I/O workload, the results might be different. If you have any doubt, test on your machine with your workload to find the optimal squeezing duration for you.

gcc -O3 warns about a dummy variable that is passed down into rbd_img_fill_nodata without being initialized: drivers/block/rbd.c: In function 'rbd_img_fill_nodata': drivers/block/rbd.c:2573:13: error: 'dummy' is used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized] fctx->iter = *fctx->pos; Since this is a dummy, I assume the warning is harmless, but it's better to initialize it anyway and avoid the warning.

2020-01-03compat_ioctl: move cdrom commands into cdrom.cArnd Bergmann

2020-01-03compat_ioctl: scsi: move ioctl handling into driversArnd Bergmann
Each driver calling scsi_ioctl() gets an equivalent compat_ioctl() handler that implements the same commands by calling scsi_compat_ioctl(). The scsi_cmd_ioctl() and scsi_cmd_blk_ioctl() functions are compatible at this point, so any driver that calls those can do so for both native and compat mode, with the argument passed through compat_ptr(). With this, we can remove the entries from fs/compat_ioctl.c. The new code is larger, but should be easier to maintain and keep updated with newly added commands.

2020-01-03compat_ioctl: block: handle cdrom compat ioctl in non-cdrom driversArnd Bergmann
Various block drivers implement the CDROMMULTISESSION, CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY, and CDROMEJECT ioctl commands, relying on the block layer to handle compat_ioctl mode for them. Move this into the drivers directly as a preparation for simplifying the block layer later. When only integer arguments or no arguments are passed, the same handler can be used for .ioctl and .compat_ioctl, and when only pointer arguments are passed, the newly added blkdev_compat_ptr_ioctl can be used.

There is only one implementation of this ioctl, so move the handling out of the common block layer code into the place where it's actually needed. It also gets called indirectly through pktcdvd, which needs to be aware of this change. As I noticed, the old implementation of the compat handler failed to convert the structure on the way out, so the updated fields never got written back to user space. This is either not important, or it has never worked and should be fixed now. Reviewed-by: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@codethink.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

2019-12-20xen-blkback: support dynamic unbind/bindPaul Durrant
By simply re-attaching to shared rings during connect_ring() rather than assuming they are freshly allocated (i.e assuming the counters are zero) it is possible for vbd instances to be unbound and re-bound from and to (respectively) a running guest. This has been tested by running: while true; do fio --name=randwrite --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=16 \ --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --direct=1 --size=1G --verify=crc32; done in a PV guest whilst running: while true; do echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >unbind; echo unbound; sleep 5; echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >bind; echo bound; sleep 3; done in dom0 from /sys/bus/xen-backend/drivers/vbd to continuously unbind and re-bind its system disk image. This is a highly useful feature for a backend module as it allows it to be unloaded and re-loaded (i.e. updated) without requiring domUs to be halted. This was also tested by running: while true; do echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >unbind; echo unbound; sleep 5; rmmod xen-blkback; echo unloaded; sleep 1; modprobe xen-blkback; echo bound; cd $(pwd); sleep 3; done in dom0 whilst running the same loop as above in the (single) PV guest. Some (less stressful) testing has also been done using a Windows HVM guest with the latest 9.0 PV drivers installed.

2019-12-16nbd: fix shutdown and recv work deadlock v2Mike Christie
This fixes a regression added with: commit e9e006f5fcf2bab59149cb38a48a4817c1b538b4 Author: Mike Christie <mchristi@redhat.com> Date: Sun Aug 4 14:10:06 2019 -0500 nbd: fix max number of supported devs where we can deadlock during device shutdown. The problem occurs if the recv_work's nbd_config_put occurs after nbd_start_device_ioctl has returned and the userspace app has droppped its reference via closing the device and running nbd_release. The recv_work nbd_config_put call would then drop the refcount to zero and try to destroy the config which would try to do destroy_workqueue from the recv work. This patch just has nbd_start_device_ioctl do a flush_workqueue when it wakes so we know after the ioctl returns running works have exited. This also fixes a possible race where we could try to reuse the device while old recv_works are still running.

Objects allocated by xen_blkif_alloc come from the 'blkif_cache' kmem cache. This cache is destoyed when xen-blkif is unloaded so it is necessary to wait for the deferred free routine used for such objects to complete. This necessity was missed in commit 14855954f636 "xen-blkback: allow module to be cleanly unloaded". This patch fixes the problem by taking/releasing extra module references in xen_blkif_alloc/free() respectively.
