2017-12-22blk-mq: improve heavily contended tag caseJens Axboe
Even with a number of waitqueues, we can get into a situation where we are heavily contended on the waitqueue lock. I got a report on spc1 where we're spending seconds doing this. Arguably the use case is nasty, I reproduce it with one device and 1000 threads banging on the device. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't be handling it better. What ends up happening is that a thread will fail to get a tag, add itself to the waitqueue, and subsequently get woken up when a tag is freed - only to find itself going back to sleep on the waitqueue. Instead of waking all threads, use an exclusive wait and wake up our sbitmap batch count instead. This seems to work well for me (massive improvement for this use case), and it survives basic testing. But I haven't fully verified it yet. An additional improvement is running the queue and checking for a new tag BEFORE needing to add ourselves to the waitqueue. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2017-04-14sbitmap: add sbitmap_get_shallow() operationOmar Sandoval
This operation supports the use case of limiting the number of bits that can be allocated for a given operation. Rather than setting aside some bits at the end of the bitmap, we can set aside bits in each word of the bitmap. This means we can keep the allocation hints spread out and support sbitmap_resize() nicely at the cost of lower granularity for the allowed depth.

2017-03-02kasan, sched/headers: Uninline kasan_enable/disable_current()Ingo Molnar
<linux/kasan.h> is a low level header that is included early in affected kernel headers. But it includes <linux/sched.h> which complicates the cleanup of sched.h dependencies. But kasan.h has almost no need for sched.h: its only use of scheduler functionality is in two inline functions which are not used very frequently - so uninline kasan_enable_current() and kasan_disable_current(). Also add a <linux/sched.h> dependency to a .c file that depended on kasan.h including it. This paves the way to remove the <linux/sched.h> include from kasan.h.

2017-01-18sbitmap: fix wakeup hang after sbq resizeOmar Sandoval
When we resize a struct sbitmap_queue, we update the wakeup batch size, but we don't update the wait count in the struct sbq_wait_states. If we resized down from a size which could use a bigger batch size, these counts could be too large and cause us to miss necessary wakeups. To fix this, update the wait counts when we resize (ensuring some careful memory ordering so that it's safe w.r.t. concurrent clears). This also fixes a theoretical issue where two threads could end up bumping the wait count up by the batch size, which could also potentially lead to hangs.

2017-01-18sbitmap: use smp_mb__after_atomic() in sbq_wake_up()Omar Sandoval
We always do an atomic clear_bit() right before we call sbq_wake_up(), so we can use smp_mb__after_atomic(). While we're here, comment the memory barriers in here a little more. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2016-09-17sbitmap: don't update the allocation hint on clear after resizeOmar Sandoval
If we have a bunch of high-numbered bits allocated and then we resize the struct sbitmap_queue, when those bits get cleared, we'll update the hint and then have to re-randomize it repeatedly. Avoid that by checking that the cleared bit is still a valid hint. No measurable performance difference in the common case.

2016-09-17sbitmap: re-initialize allocation hints after resizeOmar Sandoval
After a struct sbitmap_queue is resized smaller, the allocation hints may still be set to bits beyond the new depth of the bitmap. This means that, for example, if the number of blk-mq tags is reduced through sysfs, more requests than the nominal queue depth may be in flight. It's tempting to fix this at resize time by doing a one-time reinitialization of the hints, but this can race with __sbitmap_queue_get() updating the hint. Instead, check the hint before we use it. This caused no measurable performance difference in my synthetic benchmarks. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-09-17sbitmap: randomize initial alloc_hint valuesOmar Sandoval
In order to get good cache behavior from a sbitmap, we want each CPU to stick to its own cacheline(s) as much as possible. This might happen naturally as the bitmap gets filled up and the alloc_hint values spread out, but we really want this behavior from the start. blk-mq apparently intended to do this, but the code to do this was never wired up. Get rid of the dead code and make it part of the sbitmap library. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-09-17sbitmap: push alloc policy into sbitmap_queueOmar Sandoval
Again, there's no point in passing this in every time. Make it part of struct sbitmap_queue and clean up the API. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-09-17sbitmap: push per-cpu last_tag into sbitmap_queueOmar Sandoval
Allocating your own per-cpu allocation hint separately makes for an awkward API. Instead, allocate the per-cpu hint as part of the struct sbitmap_queue. There's no point for a struct sbitmap_queue without the cache, but you can still use a bare struct sbitmap. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-09-17sbitmap: allocate wait queues on a specific nodeOmar Sandoval
The original bt_alloc() we converted from was using kzalloc(), not kzalloc_node(), to allocate the wait queues. This was probably an oversight, so fix it for sbitmap_queue_init_node(). Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-09-17blk-mq: abstract tag allocation out into sbitmap libraryOmar Sandoval
This is a generally useful data structure, so make it available to anyone else who might want to use it. It's also a nice cleanup separating the allocation logic from the rest of the tag handling logic. The code is behind a new Kconfig option, CONFIG_SBITMAP, which is only selected by CONFIG_BLOCK for now. This should be a complete noop functionality-wise.
