bcache: allocate meta data pages as compound pages

2020-08-21T08:53:05+00:00

commit 5fe48867856367142d91a82f2cbf7a57a24cbb70 upstream.

There are some meta data of bcache are allocated by multiple pages,
and they are used as bio bv_page for I/Os to the cache device. for
example cache_set->uuids, cache->disk_buckets, journal_write->data,
bset_tree->data.

For such meta data memory, all the allocated pages should be treated
as a single memory block. Then the memory management and underlying I/O
code can treat them more clearly.

This patch adds __GFP_COMP flag to all the location allocating >0 order
pages for the above mentioned meta data. Then their pages are treated
as compound pages now.

bcache: fix failure in journal relplay

2019-06-11T10:23:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 631207314d88e9091be02fbdd1fdadb1ae2ed79a ]

journal replay failed with messages:
Sep 10 19:10:43 ceph kernel: bcache: error on
bb379a64-e44e-4812-b91d-a5599871a3b1: bcache: journal entries
2057493-2057567 missing! (replaying 2057493-2076601), disabling
caching

The reason is in journal_reclaim(), when discard is enabled, we send
discard command and reclaim those journal buckets whose seq is old
than the last_seq_now, but before we write a journal with last_seq_now,
the machine is restarted, so the journal with the last_seq_now is not
written to the journal bucket, and the last_seq_wrote in the newest
journal is old than last_seq_now which we expect to be, so when we doing
replay, journals from last_seq_wrote to last_seq_now are missing.

It's hard to write a journal immediately after journal_reclaim(),
and it harmless if those missed journal are caused by discarding
since those journals are already wrote to btree node. So, if miss
seqs are started from the beginning journal, we treat it as normal,
and only print a message to show the miss journal, and point out
it maybe caused by discarding.

Patch v2 add a judgement condition to ignore the missed journal
only when discard enabled as Coly suggested.

bcache: return error immediately in bch_journal_replay()

2019-06-11T10:23:55+00:00

[ Upstream commit 68d10e6979a3b59e3cd2e90bfcafed79c4cf180a ]

When failure happens inside bch_journal_replay(), calling
cache_set_err_on() and handling the failure in async way is not a good
idea. Because after bch_journal_replay() returns, registering code will
continue to execute following steps, and unregistering code triggered
by cache_set_err_on() is running in same time. First it is unnecessary
to handle failure and unregister cache set in an async way, second there
might be potential race condition to run register and unregister code
for same cache set.

So in this patch, if failure happens in bch_journal_replay(), we don't
call cache_set_err_on(), and just print out the same error message to
kernel message buffer, then return -EIO immediately caller. Then caller
can detect such failure and handle it in synchrnozied way.

bcache: never set KEY_PTRS of journal key to 0 in journal_reclaim()

2019-06-11T10:23:39+00:00

commit 1bee2addc0c8470c8aaa65ef0599eeae96dd88bc upstream.

In journal_reclaim() ja->cur_idx of each cache will be update to
reclaim available journal buckets. Variable 'int n' is used to count how
many cache is successfully reclaimed, then n is set to c->journal.key
by SET_KEY_PTRS(). Later in journal_write_unlocked(), a for_each_cache()
loop will write the jset data onto each cache.

The problem is, if all jouranl buckets on each cache is full, the
following code in journal_reclaim(),

529 for_each_cache(ca, c, iter) {
530       struct journal_device *ja = &ca->journal;
531       unsigned int next = (ja->cur_idx + 1) % ca->sb.njournal_buckets;
532
533       /* No space available on this device */
534       if (next == ja->discard_idx)
535               continue;
536
537       ja->cur_idx = next;
538       k->ptr[n++] = MAKE_PTR(0,
539                         bucket_to_sector(c, ca->sb.d[ja->cur_idx]),
540                         ca->sb.nr_this_dev);
541 }
542
543 bkey_init(k);
544 SET_KEY_PTRS(k, n);

If there is no available bucket to reclaim, the if() condition at line
534 will always true, and n remains 0. Then at line 544, SET_KEY_PTRS()
will set KEY_PTRS field of c->journal.key to 0.

Setting KEY_PTRS field of c->journal.key to 0 is wrong. Because in
journal_write_unlocked() the journal data is written in following loop,

649	for (i = 0; i < KEY_PTRS(k); i++) {
650-671		submit journal data to cache device
672	}

If KEY_PTRS field is set to 0 in jouranl_reclaim(), the journal data
won't be written to cache device here. If system crahed or rebooted
before bkeys of the lost journal entries written into btree nodes, data
corruption will be reported during bcache reload after rebooting the
system.

Indeed there is only one cache in a cache set, there is no need to set
KEY_PTRS field in journal_reclaim() at all. But in order to keep the
for_each_cache() logic consistent for now, this patch fixes the above
problem by not setting 0 KEY_PTRS of journal key, if there is no bucket
available to reclaim.

bcache: Fix building error on MIPS

commit cf33c1ee5254c6a430bc1538232b49c3ea13e613 upstream.

This patch try to fix the building error on MIPS. The reason is MIPS
has already defined the PTR macro, which conflicts with the PTR macro
in include/uapi/linux/bcache.h.

bcache: remove driver private bio splitting code

2015-08-13T18:31:40+00:00

The bcache driver has always accepted arbitrarily large bios and split
them internally.  Now that every driver must accept arbitrarily large
bios this code isn't nessecary anymore.

block: add a bi_error field to struct bio

2015-07-29T14:55:15+00:00

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:

 (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
 (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback

The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario.  Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.

So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

When running with multiple cache devices, if one of the devices has a completely

we'd go into an infinite loop.
