* block: restore multiple bd_link_disk_holder() supportTejun Heo2011-01-142-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e09b457b (block: simplify holder symlink handling) incorrectly assumed that there is only one link at maximum. dm may use multiple links and expects block layer to track reference count for each link, which is different from and unrelated to the exclusive device holder identified by @holder when the device is opened. Remove the single holder assumption and automatic removal of the link and revive the per-link reference count tracking. The code essentially behaves the same as before commit e09b457b sans the unnecessary kobject reference count dancing. While at it, note that this facility should not be used by anyone else than the current ones. Sysfs symlinks shouldn't be abused like this and the whole thing doesn't belong in the block layer at all.

| * dm: raid456 basic supportNeilBrown2011-01-133-0/+722
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is the skeleton for the DM target that will be the bridge from DM to MD (initially RAID456 and later RAID1). It provides a way to use device-mapper interfaces to the MD RAID456 drivers. As with all device-mapper targets, the nominal public interfaces are the constructor (CTR) tables and the status outputs (both STATUSTYPE_INFO and STATUSTYPE_TABLE). The CTR table looks like the following: 1: <s> <l> raid \ 2: <raid_type> <#raid_params> <raid_params> \ 3: <#raid_devs> <meta_dev1> <dev1> .. <meta_devN> <devN> Line 1 contains the standard first three arguments to any device-mapper target - the start, length, and target type fields. The target type in this case is "raid". Line 2 contains the arguments that define the particular raid type/personality/level, the required arguments for that raid type, and any optional arguments. Possible raid types include: raid4, raid5_la, raid5_ls, raid5_rs, raid6_zr, raid6_nr, and raid6_nc. (again, raid1 is planned for the future.) The list of required and optional parameters is the same for all the current raid types. The required parameters are positional, while the optional parameters are given as key/value pairs. The possible parameters are as follows: <chunk_size> Chunk size in sectors. [[no]sync] Force/Prevent RAID initialization [rebuild <idx>] Rebuild the drive indicated by the index [daemon_sleep <ms>] Time between bitmap daemon work to clear bits [min_recovery_rate <kB/sec/disk>] Throttle RAID initialization [max_recovery_rate <kB/sec/disk>] Throttle RAID initialization [max_write_behind <value>] See '-write-behind=' (man mdadm) [stripe_cache <sectors>] Stripe cache size for higher RAIDs Line 3 contains the list of devices that compose the array in metadata/data device pairs. If the metadata is stored separately, a '-' is given for the metadata device position. If a drive has failed or is missing at creation time, a '-' can be given for both the metadata and data drives for a given position. Examples: # RAID4 - 4 data drives, 1 parity # No metadata devices specified to hold superblock/bitmap info # Chunk size of 1MiB # (Lines separated for easy reading) 0 1960893648 raid \ raid4 1 2048 \ 5 - 8:17 - 8:33 - 8:49 - 8:65 - 8:81 # RAID4 - 4 data drives, 1 parity (no metadata devices) # Chunk size of 1MiB, force RAID initialization, # min recovery rate at 20 kiB/sec/disk 0 1960893648 raid \ raid4 4 2048 min_recovery_rate 20 sync\ 5 - 8:17 - 8:33 - 8:49 - 8:65 - 8:81 Performing a 'dmsetup table' should display the CTR table used to construct the mapping (with possible reordering of optional parameters). Performing a 'dmsetup status' will yield information on the state and health of the array. The output is as follows: 1: <s> <l> raid \ 2: <raid_type> <#devices> <1 health char for each dev> <resync_ratio> Line 1 is standard DM output. Line 2 is best shown by example: 0 1960893648 raid raid4 5 AAAAA 2/490221568 Here we can see the RAID type is raid4, there are 5 devices - all of which are 'A'live, and the array is 2/490221568 complete with recovery.

| * dm mpath: delay activate_path retry on SCSI_DH_RETRYChandra Seetharaman2011-01-131-10/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a user-configurable 'pg_init_delay_msecs' feature. Use this feature to specify the number of milliseconds to delay before retrying scsi_dh_activate, when SCSI_DH_RETRY is returned. SCSI Device Handlers return SCSI_DH_IMM_RETRY if we could retry activation immediately and SCSI_DH_RETRY in cases where it is better to retry after some delay. Currently we immediately retry scsi_dh_activate irrespective of SCSI_DH_IMM_RETRY and SCSI_DH_RETRY. The 'pg_init_delay_msecs' feature may be provided during table create or load, e.g.: dmsetup create --table "0 20971520 multipath 3 queue_if_no_path \ pg_init_delay_msecs 2500 ..." mpatha The default for 'pg_init_delay_msecs' is 2000 milliseconds. Maximum configurable delay is 60000 milliseconds. Specifying a 'pg_init_delay_msecs' of 0 will cause immediate retry.

| * dm: remove superfluous irq disablement in dm_request_fnKiyoshi Ueda2011-01-131-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes spin_lock_irq() to spin_lock() in dm_request_fn(). This patch is just a clean-up and no functional change. The spin_lock_irq() was leftover from the early request-based dm code, where map_request() used to enable interrupts. Since current map_request() never enables interrupts, we can change it to spin_lock() to match the prior spin_unlock(). Auditing through the dm and block-layer code called from map_request(), I confirmed all functions save/restore interrupt status, so no function returning with interrupts enabled. Also I haven't observed any problem on my test environment which uses scsi and lpfc driver after heavy I/O testing with occasional path down/up. Added BUG_ON() to detect breakage in future.

| * dm log: use PTR_ERR value instead of ENOMEMDan Carpenter2011-01-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's nicer to return the PTR_ERR() value instead of just returning -ENOMEM. In the current code the PTR_ERR() value is always equal to -ENOMEM so this doesn't actually affect anything, but still... In addition, dm_dirty_log_create() doesn't check for a specific -ENOMEM return. So this change is safe relative to potential for a non -ENOMEM return in the future.

It operates on full 512 byte sectors and uses CBC with an IV derived from the sector number, the data and optionally extra IV seed. This means that after CBC decryption the first block of sector must be tweaked according to decrypted data. Loop-AES can use three encryption schemes: version 1: is plain aes-cbc mode (already compatible) version 2: uses 64 multikey scheme with own IV generator version 3: the same as version 2 with additional IV seed (it uses 65 keys, last key is used as IV seed) The IV generator is here named lmk (Loop-AES multikey) and for the cipher specification looks like: aes:64-cbc-lmk Version 2 and 3 is recognised according to length of provided multi-key string (which is just hexa encoded "raw key" used in original Loop-AES ioctl). Configuration of the device and decoding key string will be done in userspace (cryptsetup). (Loop-AES stores keys in gpg encrypted file, raw keys are output of simple hashing of lines in this file).

| * dm crypt: add multi key capabilityMilan Broz2011-01-131-21/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds generic multikey handling to be used in following patch for Loop-AES mode compatibility. This patch extends mapping table to optional keycount and implements generic multi-key capability. With more keys defined the <key> string is divided into several <keycount> sections and these are used for tfms. The tfm is used according to sector offset (sector 0->tfm[0], sector 1->tfm[1], sector N->tfm[N modulo keycount]) (only power of two values supported for keycount here). Because of tfms per-cpu allocation, this mode can be take a lot of memory on large smp systems.

| * dm crypt: add post iv call to iv generatorMilan Broz2011-01-131-13/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IV (initialisation vector) can in principle depend not only on sector but also on plaintext data (or other attributes). Change IV generator interface to work directly with dmreq structure to allow such dependence in generator. Also add post() function which is called after the crypto operation. This allows tricky modification of decrypted data or IV internals. In asynchronous mode the post() can be called after ctx->sector count was increased so it is needed to add iv_sector copy directly to dmreq structure.

| * dm crypt: scale to multiple cpusAndi Kleen2011-01-131-58/+196
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently dm-crypt does all the encryption work for a single dm-crypt mapping in a single workqueue. This does not scale well when multiple CPUs are submitting IO at a high rate. The single CPU running the single thread cannot keep up with the encryption and encrypted IO performance tanks. This patch changes the crypto workqueue to be per CPU. This means that as long as the IO submitter (or the interrupt target CPUs for reads) runs on different CPUs the encryption work will be also parallel. To avoid a bottleneck on the IO worker I also changed those to be per-CPU threads. There is still some shared data, so I suspect some bouncing cache lines. But I haven't done a detailed study on that yet. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

Without this patch, each I/O request is dispatched separately to the device. If the device supports tagged queuing, there are many small requests sent to the device. To improve performance, this patch will batch as many requests as possible, allowing the queue to merge consecutive requests, and send them to the device at once. In my tests (15k SCSI disk), this patch improves sequential write throughput: Sequential write throughput (chunksize of 4k, 32k, 512k) unpatched: 15.2, 18.5, 17.5 MB/s patched: 14.4, 22.6, 23.0 MB/s In most common uses (snapshot or two-way mirror), kcopyd is only used for two devices, one for reading and the other for writing, thus this optimization is implemented only for two devices. The optimization may be extended to n-way mirrors with some code complexity increase. We keep track of two block devices to unplug (one for read and the other for write) and unplug them when exiting "do_work" thread. If there are more devices used (in theory it could happen, in practice it is rare), we unplug immediately.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the REQ_SYNC flag to improve write throughput when writing to the origin with a snapshot on the same device (using the CFQ I/O scheduler). Sequential write throughput (chunksize of 4k, 32k, 512k) unpatched: 8.5, 8.6, 9.3 MB/s patched: 15.2, 18.5, 17.5 MB/s Snapshot exception reallocations are triggered by writes that are usually async, so mark the associated dm_io_request as async as well. This helps when using the CFQ I/O scheduler because it has separate queues for sync and async I/O. Async is optimized for throughput; sync for latency. With this change we're consciously favoring throughput over latency.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | No longer needlessly hold md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex when changing the size of a DM device. This additional locking is unnecessary because i_size_write() is already protected by the existing critical section in dm_swap_table(). DM already has a reference on md->bdev so the associated bd_inode may be changed without lifetime concerns. A negative side-effect of having held md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex was that a concurrent DM device resize and flush (via fsync) would deadlock. Dropping md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex eliminates this potential for deadlock.

| * md: Fix removal of extra drives when converting RAID6 to RAID5NeilBrown2011-01-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a RAID6 is converted to a RAID5, the extra drive should be discarded. However it isn't due to a typo in a comparison. This bug was introduced in commit e93f68a1fc6 in 2.6.35-rc4 and is suitable for any -stable since than. As the extra drive is not removed, the 'degraded' counter is wrong and so the RAID5 will not respond correctly to a subsequent failure. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When adding a spare to an active array, we should check the slot number, but allow it to be larger than raid_disks if a reshape is being prepared. Apply the same test when adding a device to an array-under-construction. It already had most of the test in place, but not quite all. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The values exported in the sync_completed file are unsigned long, which overflows with very large drives, resulting in wrong values reported. Since sync_completed uses sectors as unit, we'll start getting wrong values with components larger than 2TB. This patch simply replaces the use of unsigned long by unsigned long long.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sysfs attributes 'suspend_lo' and 'suspend_hi' describe a region to which read/writes are suspended so that the under lying data can be manipulated without user-space noticing. Currently the window they describe can only move forwards along the device. However this is an unnecessary restriction which will cause problems with planned developments. So relax this restriction and allow these endpoints to move arbitrarily. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
| * md: Don't let implementation detail of curr_resync leak out through sysfs.NeilBrown2011-01-143-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mddev->curr_resync has artificial values of '1' and '2' which are used by the code which ensures only one resync is happening at a time on any given device. These values are internal and should never be exposed to user-space (except when translated appropriately as in the 'pending' status in /proc/mdstat). Unfortunately they are as ->curr_resync is assigned to ->curr_resync_completed and that value is directly visible through sysfs. So change the assignments to ->curr_resync_completed to get the same valued from elsewhere in a form that doesn't have the magic '1' or '2' values. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

| * md: Be more careful about clearing flags bit in ->recoveryNeilBrown2011-01-141-37/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting ->recovery to 0 is generally not a good idea as it could clear bits that shouldn't be cleared. In particular, MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN should only be cleared on explicit request from user-space. So when we need to clear things, just clear the bits that need clearing. As there are a few different places which reap a resync process - and some do an incomplte job - factor out the code for doing the from md_check_recovery and call that function instead of open coding part of it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As md_stop_writes manipulates the sync_thread and calls md_update_sb, it need to be called with mddev_lock held. In all internal cases it is, but the symbol is exported for dm-raid to call and in that case the lock won't be help.

| * md: Ensure no IO request to get md device before it is properly initialised.NeilBrown2011-01-142-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an md device is in the process of coming on line it is possible for an IO request (typically a partition table probe) to get through before the array is fully initialised, which can cause unexpected behaviour (e.g. a crash). So explicitly record when the array is ready for IO and don't allow IO through until then. There is no possibility for a similar problem when the array is going off-line as there must only be one 'open' at that time, and it is busy off-lining the array and so cannot send IO requests. So no memory barrier is needed in md_stop() This has been a bug since commit 409c57f3801 in 2.6.30 which introduced md_make_request. Before then, each personality would register its own make_request_fn when it was ready. This is suitable for any stable kernel from 2.6.30.y onwards.

| * md: fix regression resulting in delays in clearing bits in a bitmapNeilBrown2011-01-141-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 589a594be1fb (2.6.37-rc4) fixed a problem were md_thread would sometimes call the ->run function at a bad time. If an error is detected during array start up after the md_thread has been started, the md_thread is killed. This resulted in the ->run function being called once. However the array may not be in a state that it is safe to call ->run. However the fix imposed meant that ->run was not called on a timeout. This means that when an array goes idle, bitmap bits do not get cleared promptly. While the array is busy the bits will still be cleared when appropriate so this is not very serious. There is no risk to data. Change the test so that we only avoid calling ->run when the thread is being stopped. This more explicitly addresses the problem situation. This is suitable for 2.6.37-stable and any -stable kernel to which 589a594be1fb was applied. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
