2023-01-29block, bfq: initialize bfqq->decrease_time_jif correctlyKemeng Shi
Inject limit is updated or reset when time_is_before_eq_jiffies( decrease_time_jif + several msecs) or think-time state changes. decrease_time_jif is initialized to 0 and will be set to current jiffies when inject limit is updated or reset. If the jiffies is slightly greater than LONG_MAX, time_is_after_eq_jiffies(0) will keep for a long time, so as time_is_after_eq_jiffies(decrease_time_jif + several msecs). If the think-time state never chages, then the injection will not work as expected for long time. To be more specific: Function bfq_update_inject_limit maybe triggered when jiffies pasts decrease_time_jif + msecs_to_jiffies(10) in bfq_add_request by setting bfqd->wait_dispatch to true. Function bfq_reset_inject_limit are called in two conditions: 1. jiffies pasts bfqq->decrease_time_jif + msecs_to_jiffies(1000) in function bfq_add_request. 2. jiffies pasts bfqq->decrease_time_jif + msecs_to_jiffies(100) or bfq think-time state change from short to long. Fix this by initializing bfqq->decrease_time_jif to current jiffies to trigger service injection soon when service injection conditions are met.

2023-01-29block, bfq: correctly raise inject limit in bfq_choose_bfqq_for_injectionKemeng Shi
Function bfq_choose_bfqq_for_injection may temporarily raise inject limit to one request if current inject_limit is 0 before search of the source queue for injection. However the search below will reset inject limit to bfqd->in_service_queue which is zero for raised inject limit. Then the temporarily raised inject limit never works as expected. Assigment limit to bfqd->in_service_queue in search is needed as limit maybe overwriten to min_t(unsigned int, 1, limit) for condition that a large in-flight request is on non-rotational devices in found queue. So we need to reset limit to bfqd->in_service_queue for normal case. Actually, we have already make sure bfqd->rq_in_driver is < limit before search, then -Limit is >= 1 as bfqd->rq_in_driver is >= 0. Then min_t(unsigned int, 1, limit) is always 1. So we can simply check bfqd->rq_in_driver with 1 instead of result of min_t(unsigned int, 1, limit) for larget request in non-rotational device case to avoid overwritting limit and the bug is gone. -For normal case, we have already check bfqd->rq_in_driver is < limit, so we can return found bfqq unconditionally to remove unncessary check.

2023-01-29blk-cgroup: support to track if policy is onlineYu Kuai
A new field 'online' is added to blkg_policy_data to fix following 2 problem: 1) In blkcg_activate_policy(), if pd_alloc_fn() with 'GFP_NOWAIT' failed, 'queue_lock' will be dropped and pd_alloc_fn() will try again without 'GFP_NOWAIT'. In the meantime, remove cgroup can race with it, and pd_offline_fn() will be called without pd_init_fn() and pd_online_fn(). This way null-ptr-deference can be triggered. 2) In order to synchronize pd_free_fn() from blkg_free_workfn() and blkcg_deactivate_policy(), 'list_del_init(&blkg->q_node)' will be delayed to blkg_free_workfn(), hence pd_offline_fn() can be called first in blkg_destroy(), and then blkcg_deactivate_policy() will call it again, we must prevent it. The new field 'online' will be set after pd_online_fn() and will be cleared after pd_offline_fn(), in the meantime pd_offline_fn() will only be called if 'online' is set.

2023-01-29blk-cgroup: dropping parent refcount after pd_free_fn() is doneYu Kuai
Some cgroup policies will access parent pd through child pd even after pd_offline_fn() is done. If pd_free_fn() for parent is called before child, then UAF can be triggered. Hence it's better to guarantee the order of pd_free_fn(). Currently refcount of parent blkg is dropped in __blkg_release(), which is before pd_free_fn() is called in blkg_free_work_fn() while blkg_free_work_fn() is called asynchronously. This patch make sure pd_free_fn() called from removing cgroup is ordered by delaying dropping parent refcount after calling pd_free_fn() for child. BTW, pd_free_fn() will also be called from blkcg_deactivate_policy() from deleting device, and following patches will guarantee the order.

2023-01-29block: treat poll queue enter similarly to timeoutsJens Axboe
We ran into an issue where a production workload would randomly grind to a halt and not continue until the pending IO had timed out. This turned out to be a complicated interaction between queue freezing and polled IO: 1) You have an application that does polled IO. At any point in time, there may be polled IO pending. 2) You have a monitoring application that issues a passthrough command, which is marked with side effects such that it needs to freeze the queue. 3) Passthrough command is started, which calls blk_freeze_queue_start() on the device. At this point the queue is marked frozen, and any attempt to enter the queue will fail (for non-blocking) or block. 4) Now the driver calls blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait(), which will return when the queue is quiesced and pending IO has completed. 5) The pending IO is polled IO, but any attempt to poll IO through the normal iocb_bio_iopoll() -> bio_poll() will fail when it gets to bio_queue_enter() as the queue is frozen. Rather than poll and complete IO, the polling threads will sit in a tight loop attempting to poll, but failing to enter the queue to do so. The end result is that progress for either application will be stalled until all pending polled IO has timed out. This causes obvious huge latency issues for the application doing polled IO, but also long delays for passthrough command. Fix this by treating queue enter for polled IO just like we do for timeouts. This allows quick quiesce of the queue as we still poll and complete this IO, while still disallowing queueing up new IO.

2023-01-29block: don't allow multiple bios for IOCB_NOWAIT issueJens Axboe
If we're doing a large IO request which needs to be split into multiple bios for issue, then we can run into the same situation as the below marked commit fixes - parts will complete just fine, one or more parts will fail to allocate a request. This will result in a partially completed read or write request, where the caller gets EAGAIN even though parts of the IO completed just fine. Do the same for large bios as we do for splits - fail a NOWAIT request with EAGAIN.

2023-01-29block, bfq: balance I/O injection among underutilized actuatorsDavide Zini
Upon the invocation of its dispatch function, BFQ returns the next I/O request of the in-service bfq_queue, unless some exception holds. One such exception is that there is some underutilized actuator, different from the actuator for which the in-service queue contains I/O, and that some other bfq_queue happens to contain I/O for such an actuator. In this case, the next I/O request of the latter bfq_queue, and not of the in-service bfq_queue, is returned (I/O is injected from that bfq_queue). To find such an actuator, a linear scan, in increasing index order, is performed among actuators. Performing a linear scan entails a prioritization among actuators: an underutilized actuator may be considered for injection only if all actuators with a lower index are currently fully utilized, or if there is no pending I/O for any lower-index actuator that happens to be underutilized. This commits breaks this prioritization and tends to distribute injection uniformly across actuators. This is obtained by adding the following condition to the linear scan: even if an actuator A is underutilized, A is however skipped if its load is higher than that of the next actuator.

2023-01-29block, bfq: inject I/O to underutilized actuatorsDavide Zini
The main service scheme of BFQ for sync I/O is serving one sync bfq_queue at a time, for a while. In particular, BFQ enforces this scheme when it deems the latter necessary to boost throughput or to preserve service guarantees. Unfortunately, when BFQ enforces this policy, only one actuator at a time gets served for a while, because each bfq_queue contains I/O only for one actuator. The other actuators may remain underutilized. Actually, BFQ may serve (inject) extra I/O, taken from other bfq_queues, in parallel with that of the in-service queue. This injection mechanism may provide the ground for dealing also with the above actuator-underutilization problem. Yet BFQ does not take the actuator load into account when choosing which queue to pick extra I/O from. In addition, BFQ may happen to inject extra I/O only when the in-service queue is temporarily empty. In view of these facts, this commit extends the injection mechanism in such a way that the latter: (1) takes into account also the actuator load; (2) checks such a load on each dispatch, and injects I/O for an underutilized actuator, if there is one and there is I/O for it. To perform the check in (2), this commit introduces a load threshold, currently set to 4. A linear scan of each actuator is performed, until an actuator is found for which the following two conditions hold: the load of the actuator is below the threshold, and there is at least one non-in-service queue that contains I/O for that actuator. If such a pair (actuator, queue) is found, then the head request of that queue is returned for dispatch, instead of the head request of the in-service queue. We have set the threshold, empirically, to the minimum possible value for which an actuator is fully utilized, or close to be fully utilized. By doing so, injected I/O 'steals' as few drive-queue slots as possibile to the in-service queue. This reduces as much as possible the probability that the service of I/O from the in-service bfq_queue gets delayed because of slot exhaustion, i.e., because all the slots of the drive queue are filled with I/O injected from other queues (NCQ provides for 32 slots). This new mechanism also counters actuator underutilization in the case of asymmetric configurations of bfq_queues. Namely if there are few bfq_queues containing I/O for some actuators and many bfq_queues containing I/O for other actuators. Or if the bfq_queues containing I/O for some actuators have lower weights than the other bfq_queues.

This patch implements the code to gather the content of the independent_access_ranges structure from the request_queue and copy it into the queue's bfq_data. This copy is done at queue initialization. We copy the access ranges into the bfq_data to avoid taking the queue lock each time we access the ranges. This implementation, however, puts a limit to the maximum independent ranges supported by the scheduler. Such a limit is equal to the constant BFQ_MAX_ACTUATORS. This limit was placed to avoid the allocation of dynamic memory.

2023-01-29block, bfq: turn bfqq_data into an array in bfq_io_cqPaolo Valente
When a bfq_queue Q is merged with another queue, several pieces of information are saved about Q. These pieces are stored in the bfqq_data field in the bfq_io_cq data structure of the process associated with Q. Yet, with a multi-actuator drive, a process may get associated with multiple bfq_queues: one queue for each of the N actuators. Each of these queues may undergo a merge. So, the bfq_io_cq data structure must be able to accommodate the above information for N queues. This commit solves this problem by turning the bfqq_data scalar field into an array of N elements (and by changing code so as to handle this array). This solution is written under the assumption that bfq_queues associated with different actuators cannot be cross-merged. This assumption holds naturally with basic queue merging: the latter is triggered by spatial locality, and sectors for different actuators are not close to each other (apart from the corner case of the last sectors served by a given actuator and the first sectors served by the next actuator). As for stable cross-merging, the assumption here is that it is disabled.

2023-01-29block, bfq: move io_cq-persistent bfqq data into a dedicated structPaolo Valente
With a multi-actuator drive, a process may get associated with multiple bfq_queues: one queue for each of the N actuators. So, the bfq_io_cq data structure must be able to accommodate its per-queue persistent information for N queues. Currently it stores this information for just one queue, in several scalar fields. This is a preparatory commit for moving to accommodating persistent information for N queues. In particular, this commit packs all the above scalar fields into a single data structure. Then there is now only one field, in bfq_io_cq, that stores all the above information. This scalar field will then be turned into an array by a following commit.

2023-01-29block, bfq: forbid stable merging of queues associated with different actuatorsPaolo Valente
If queues associated with different actuators are merged, then control is lost on each actuator. Therefore some actuator may be underutilized, and throughput may decrease. This problem cannot occur with basic queue merging, because the latter is triggered by spatial locality, and sectors for different actuators are not close to each other. Yet it may happen with stable merging. To address this issue, this commit prevents stable merging from occurring among queues associated with different actuators.

2023-01-29block, bfq: split sync bfq_queues on a per-actuator basisPaolo Valente
Single-LUN multi-actuator SCSI drives, as well as all multi-actuator SATA drives appear as a single device to the I/O subsystem [1]. Yet they address commands to different actuators internally, as a function of Logical Block Addressing (LBAs). A given sector is reachable by only one of the actuators. For example, Seagate’s Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) version contains two actuators and maps the lower half of the SATA LBA space to the lower actuator and the upper half to the upper actuator. Evidently, to fully utilize actuators, no actuator must be left idle or underutilized while there is pending I/O for it. The block layer must somehow control the load of each actuator individually. This commit lays the ground for allowing BFQ to provide such a per-actuator control. BFQ associates an I/O-request sync bfq_queue with each process doing synchronous I/O, or with a group of processes, in case of queue merging. Then BFQ serves one bfq_queue at a time. While in service, a bfq_queue is emptied in request-position order. Yet the same process, or group of processes, may generate I/O for different actuators. In this case, different streams of I/O (each for a different actuator) get all inserted into the same sync bfq_queue. So there is basically no individual control on when each stream is served, i.e., on when the I/O requests of the stream are picked from the bfq_queue and dispatched to the drive. This commit enables BFQ to control the service of each actuator individually for synchronous I/O, by simply splitting each sync bfq_queue into N queues, one for each actuator. In other words, a sync bfq_queue is now associated to a pair (process, actuator). As a consequence of this split, the per-queue proportional-share policy implemented by BFQ will guarantee that the sync I/O generated for each actuator, by each process, receives its fair share of service. This is just a preparatory patch. If the I/O of the same process happens to be sent to different queues, then each of these queues may undergo queue merging. To handle this event, the bfq_io_cq data structure must be properly extended. In addition, stable merging must be disabled to avoid loss of control on individual actuators. Finally, also async queues must be split. These issues are described in detail and addressed in next commits. As for this commit, although multiple per-process bfq_queues are provided, the I/O of each process or group of processes is still sent to only one queue, regardless of the actuator the I/O is for. The forwarding to distinct bfq_queues will be enabled after addressing the above issues.

2023-01-17blk-mq: Build default queue map via group_cpus_evenly()Ming Lei
The default queue mapping builder of blk_mq_map_queues doesn't take NUMA topo into account, so the built mapping is pretty bad, since CPUs belonging to different NUMA node are assigned to same queue. It is observed that IOPS drops by ~30% when running two jobs on same hctx of null_blk from two CPUs belonging to two NUMA nodes compared with from same NUMA node. Address the issue by reusing group_cpus_evenly() for building queue mapping since group_cpus_evenly() does group cpus according to CPU/NUMA locality. Also performance data becomes more stable with this given correct queue mapping is applied wrt. numa locality viewpoint, for example, on one two nodes arm64 machine with 160 cpus, node 0(cpu 0~79), node 1(cpu 80~159): 1) modprobe null_blk nr_devices=1 submit_queues=2 2) run 'fio(t/io_uring -p 0 -n 4 -r 20 /dev/nullb0)', and observe that IOPS becomes much stable on multiple tests: - unpatched: IOPS is 2.5M ~ 4.5M - patched: IOPS is 4.3M ~ 5.0M Lots of drivers may benefit from the change, such as nvme pci poll, nvme tcp, ...

When there are no read queues read requests will be assigned a default queue on allocation. However, blk_mq_get_cached_request() is not prepared for that and will fail all attempts to grab read requests from the cache. Worst case it doubles the number of requests allocated, roughly half of which will be returned by blk_mq_free_plug_rqs(). It only affects batched allocations and so is io_uring specific.

2022-12-25treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()Steven Rostedt (Google)
Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added called "shutdown". After a timer is set to this state, then it can no longer be re-armed. The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the object holding the timer is freed. It also ignores any locations where the timer->function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(), as that is not considered a "trivial" case. This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following commands: $ cat timer.cocci @@ expression ptr, slab; identifier timer, rfield; @@ ( - del_timer(&ptr->timer); + timer_shutdown(&ptr->timer); | - del_timer_sync(&ptr->timer); + timer_shutdown_sync(&ptr->timer); ) ... when strict when != ptr->timer ( kfree_rcu(ptr, rfield); | kmem_cache_free(slab, ptr); | kfree(ptr); ) $ spatch timer.cocci . > /tmp/t.patch $ patch -p1 < /tmp/t.patch Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221123201306.823305113@linutronix.de/ Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Acked-by: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz> [ LED ] Acked-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@kernel.org> [ wireless ] Acked-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> [ networking ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
