ea8c5356d3 bcache: set max writeback rate when I/O request is idle
Commit b1092c9af9 ("bcache: allow quick writeback when backing idle")
allows the writeback rate to be faster if there is no I/O request on a
bcache device. It works well if there is only one bcache device attached
to the cache set. If there are many bcache devices attached to a cache
set, it may introduce performance regression because multiple faster
writeback threads of the idle bcache devices will compete the btree level
locks with the bcache device who have I/O requests coming.

This patch fixes the above issue by only permitting fast writebac when
all bcache devices attached on the cache set are idle. And if one of the
bcache devices has new I/O request coming, minimized all writeback
throughput immediately and let PI controller __update_writeback_rate()
to decide the upcoming writeback rate for each bcache device.

Also when all bcache devices are idle, limited wrieback rate to a small
number is wast of thoughput, especially when backing devices are slower
non-rotation devices (e.g. SATA SSD). This patch sets a max writeback
rate for each backing device if the whole cache set is idle. A faster
writeback rate in idle time means new I/Os may have more available space
for dirty data, and people may observe a better write performance then.

Please note bcache may change its cache mode in run time, and this patch
still works if the cache mode is switched from writeback mode and there
is still dirty data on cache.

5c25c4fc74 bcache: finish incremental GC
In GC thread, we record the latest GC key in gc_done, which is expected
to be used for incremental GC, but in currently code, we didn't realize
it. When GC runs, front side IO would be blocked until the GC over, it
would be a long time if there is a lot of btree nodes.

This patch realizes incremental GC, the main ideal is that, when there
are front side I/Os, after GC some nodes (100), we stop GC, release locker
of the btree node, and go to process the front side I/Os for some times
(100 ms), then go back to GC again.

By this patch, when we doing GC, I/Os are not blocked all the time, and
there is no obvious I/Os zero jump problem any more.

Patch v2: Rename some variables and macros name as Coly suggested.

ddcf35d397 block: Add and use op_stat_group() for indexing disk_stat fields.
Add and use a new op_stat_group() function for indexing partition stat
fields rather than indexing them by rq_data_dir() or bio_data_dir().
This function works similarly to op_is_sync() in that it takes the
request::cmd_flags or bio::bi_opf flags and determines which stats
should et updated.

In addition, the second parameter to generic_start_io_acct() and
generic_end_io_acct() is now a REQ_OP rather than simply a read or
write bit and it uses op_stat_group() on the parameter to determine
the stat group.

Note that the partition in_flight counts are not part of the per-cpu
statistics and as such are not indexed via this function.  It's now
indexed by op_is_write().

tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17.  Updated to pass around REQ_OP.

6e916a7eb1 bcache: store disk name in struct cache and struct cached_dev
Current code uses bdevname() or bio_devname() to reference gendisk
disk name when bcache needs to display the disk names in kernel message.
It was safe before bcache device failure handling patch set merged in,
because when devices are failed, there was deadlock to prevent bcache
printing error messages with gendisk disk name. But after the failure
handling patch set merged, the deadlock is fixed, so it is possible
that the gendisk structure bdev->hd_disk is released when bdevname() is
called to reference bdev->bd_disk->disk_name[]. This is why I receive
bug report of NULL pointers deference panic.

This patch stores gendisk disk name in a buffer inside struct cache and
struct cached_dev, then print out the offline device name won't reference
bdev->hd_disk anymore. And this patch also avoids extra function calls
of bdevname() and bio_devnmae().

Changelog:
v3, add Reviewed-by from Hannes.
v2, call bdevname() earlier in register_bdev()
v1, first version with segguestion from Junhui Tang.

c7b7bd0740 bcache: add io_disable to struct cached_dev
If a bcache device is configured to writeback mode, current code does not
handle write I/O errors on backing devices properly.

In writeback mode, write request is written to cache device, and
latter being flushed to backing device. If I/O failed when writing from
cache device to the backing device, bcache code just ignores the error and
upper layer code is NOT noticed that the backing device is broken.

This patch tries to handle backing device failure like how the cache device
failure is handled,
- Add a error counter 'io_errors' and error limit 'error_limit' in struct
  cached_dev. Add another io_disable to struct cached_dev to disable I/Os
  on the problematic backing device.
- When I/O error happens on backing device, increase io_errors counter. And
  if io_errors reaches error_limit, set cache_dev->io_disable to true, and
  stop the bcache device.

The result is, if backing device is broken of disconnected, and I/O errors
reach its error limit, backing device will be disabled and the associated
bcache device will be removed from system.

Changelog:
v2: remove "bcache: " prefix in pr_error(), and use correct name string to
    print out bcache device gendisk name.
v1: indeed this is new added in v2 patch set.

27a40ab926 bcache: add backing_request_endio() for bi_end_io
In order to catch I/O error of backing device, a separate bi_end_io
call back is required. Then a per backing device counter can record I/O
errors number and retire the backing device if the counter reaches a
per backing device I/O error limit.

This patch adds backing_request_endio() to bcache backing device I/O code
path, this is a preparation for further complicated backing device failure
handling. So far there is no real code logic change, I make this change a
separate patch to make sure it is stable and reliable for further work.

Changelog:
v2: Fix code comments typo, remove a redundant bch_writeback_add() line
    added in v4 patch set.
v1: indeed this is new added in this patch set.

bc082a55d2 bcache: fix inaccurate io state for detached bcache devices
When we run IO in a detached device,  and run iostat to shows IO status,
normally it will show like bellow (Omitted some fields):
Device: ... avgrq-sz avgqu-sz   await r_await w_await  svctm  %util
sdd        ... 15.89     0.53    1.82    0.20    2.23   1.81  52.30
bcache0    ... 15.89   115.42    0.00    0.00    0.00   2.40  69.60
but after IO stopped, there are still very big avgqu-sz and %util
values as bellow:
Device: ... avgrq-sz avgqu-sz   await r_await w_await  svctm  %util
bcache0   ...      0   5326.32    0.00    0.00    0.00   0.00 100.10

The reason for this issue is that, only generic_start_io_acct() called
and no generic_end_io_acct() called for detached device in
cached_dev_make_request(). See the code:
//start generic_start_io_acct()
generic_start_io_acct(q, rw, bio_sectors(bio), &d->disk->part0);
if (cached_dev_get(dc)) {
	//will callback generic_end_io_acct()
}
else {
	//will not call generic_end_io_acct()
}

This patch calls generic_end_io_acct() in the end of IO for detached
devices, so we can show IO state correctly.

(Modified to use GFP_NOIO in kzalloc() by Coly Li)

v2: fix typo.
v1: the initial version.

771f393e8f bcache: add CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE to struct cache_set flags
When too many I/Os failed on cache device, bch_cache_set_error() is called
in the error handling code path to retire whole problematic cache set. If
new I/O requests continue to come and take refcount dc->count, the cache
set won't be retired immediately, this is a problem.

Further more, there are several kernel thread and self-armed kernel work
may still running after bch_cache_set_error() is called. It needs to wait
quite a while for them to stop, or they won't stop at all. They also
prevent the cache set from being retired.

The solution in this patch is, to add per cache set flag to disable I/O
request on this cache and all attached backing devices. Then new coming I/O
requests can be rejected in *_make_request() before taking refcount, kernel
threads and self-armed kernel worker can stop very fast when flags bit
CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set.

Because bcache also do internal I/Os for writeback, garbage collection,
bucket allocation, journaling, this kind of I/O should be disabled after
bch_cache_set_error() is called. So closure_bio_submit() is modified to
check whether CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set on cache_set->flags. If set,
closure_bio_submit() will set bio->bi_status to BLK_STS_IOERR and
return, generic_make_request() won't be called.

A sysfs interface is also added to set or clear CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE bit
from cache_set->flags, to disable or enable cache set I/O for debugging. It
is helpful to trigger more corner case issues for failed cache device.

Changelog
v4, add wait_for_kthread_stop(), and call it before exits writeback and gc
    kernel threads.
v3, change CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE from 4 to 3, since it is bit index.
    remove "bcache: " prefix when printing out kernel message.
v2, more changes by previous review,
- Use CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE of cache_set->flags, suggested by Junhui.
- Check CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE in bch_btree_gc() to stop a while-loop, this
  is reported and inspired from origal patch of Pavel Vazharov.
v1, initial version.

All the crash issue happened when a bypass IO coming, in such scenario
s->iop.bio is pointed to the s->orig_bio. In search_free(), it finishes the
s->orig_bio by calling bio_complete(), and after that, s->iop.bio became
invalid, then kernel would crash when calling bio_put(). Maybe its upper
layer's faulty, since bio should not be freed before we calling bio_put(),
but we'd better calling bio_put() first before calling bio_complete() to
notify upper layer ending this bio.

This patch moves bio_complete() under bio_put() to avoid kernel crash.

b40503ea4f bcache: fix unmatched generic_end_io_acct() & generic_start_io_acct()
The function cached_dev_make_request() and flash_dev_make_request() call
generic_start_io_acct() with (struct bcache_device)->disk when they start a
closure. Then the function bio_complete() calls generic_end_io_acct() with
(struct search)->orig_bio->bi_disk when the closure has done.
Since the `bi_disk` is not the bcache device, the generic_end_io_acct() is
called with a wrong device queue.

It causes the "inflight" (in struct hd_struct) counter keep increasing
without decreasing.

This patch fix the problem by calling generic_end_io_acct() with
(struct bcache_device)->disk.

b1092c9af9 bcache: allow quick writeback when backing idle
If the control system would wait for at least half a second, and there's
been no reqs hitting the backing disk for awhile: use an alternate mode
where we have at most one contiguous set of writebacks in flight at a
time. (But don't otherwise delay).  If front-end IO appears, it will
still be quick, as it will only have to contend with one real operation
in flight.  But otherwise, we'll be sending data to the backing disk as
quickly as it can accept it (with one op at a time).

b221fc130c bcache: ret IOERR when read meets metadata error
The read request might meet error when searching the btree, but the error
was not handled in cache_lookup(), and this kind of metadata failure will
not go into cached_dev_read_error(), finally, the upper layer will receive
bi_status=0.  In this patch we judge the metadata error by the return
value of bch_btree_map_keys(), there are two potential paths give rise to
the error:

1. Because the btree is not totally cached in memery, we maybe get error
   when read btree node from cache device (see bch_btree_node_get()), the
   likely errno is -EIO, -ENOMEM

2. When read miss happens, bch_btree_insert_check_key() will be called to
   insert a "replace_key" to btree(see cached_dev_cache_miss(), just for
   doing preparatory work before insert the missed data to cache device),
   a failure can also happen in this situation, the likely errno is
   -ENOMEM

bch_btree_map_keys() will return MAP_DONE in normal scenario, but we will
get either -EIO or -ENOMEM in above two cases. if this happened, we should
NOT recover data from backing device (when cache device is dirty) because
we don't know whether bkeys the read request covered are all clean.  And
after that happened, s->iop.status is still its initially value(0) before
we submit s->bio.bio, we set it to BLK_STS_IOERR, so it can go into
cached_dev_read_error(), and finally it can be passed to upper layer, or
recovered by reread from backing device.

of cache_look_up(), the following explaination just copy from there):
The bucket we're reading from might be reused while our bio is in flight,
and we could then end up reading the wrong data. We guard against this
by checking (in bch_cache_read_endio()) if the pointer is stale again;
if so, we treat it as an error (s->iop.error = -EINTR) and reread from
the backing device (but we don't pass that error up anywhere)

It should be noted that cache read race happened under normal
circumstances, not the circumstance when SSD failed, it was counted
and shown in  /sys/fs/bcache/XXX/internal/cache_read_races.

Without this patch, when we use writeback mode, we will never reread from
the backing device when cache read race happened, until the whole cache
device is clean, because the condition
(s->recoverable && (dc && !atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty))) is false in
cached_dev_read_error(). In this situation, the s->iop.error(= -EINTR)
will be passed up, at last, user will receive -EINTR when it's bio end,
this is not suitable, and wield to up-application.

In this patch, we use s->read_dirty_data to judge whether the read
request hit dirty data in cache device, it is safe to reread data from
the backing device when the read request hit clean data. This can not
only handle cache read race, but also recover data when failed read
request from cache device.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

c157313791 bcache: fix wrong cache_misses statistics
Currently, Cache missed IOs are identified by s->cache_miss, but actually,
there are many situations that missed IOs are not assigned a value for
s->cache_miss in cached_dev_cache_miss(), for example, a bypassed IO
(s->iop.bypass = 1), or the cache_bio allocate failed. In these situations,
it will go to out_put or out_submit, and s->cache_miss is null, which leads
bch_mark_cache_accounting() to treat this IO as a hit IO.

d59b237959 bcache: only permit to recovery read error when cache device is clean
When bcache does read I/Os, for example in writeback or writethrough mode,
if a read request on cache device is failed, bcache will try to recovery
the request by reading from cached device. If the data on cached device is
not synced with cache device, then requester will get a stale data.

For critical storage system like database, providing stale data from
recovery may result an application level data corruption, which is
unacceptible.

With this patch, for a failed read request in writeback or writethrough
mode, recovery a recoverable read request only happens when cache device
is clean. That is to say, all data on cached device is up to update.

For other cache modes in bcache, read request will never hit
cached_dev_read_error(), they don't need this patch.

Please note, because cache mode can be switched arbitrarily in run time, a
writethrough mode might be switched from a writeback mode. Therefore
checking dc->has_data in writethrough mode still makes sense.

Changelog:
V4: Fix parens error pointed by Michael Lyle.
v3: By response from Kent Oversteet, he thinks recovering stale data is a
    bug to fix, and option to permit it is unnecessary. So this version
    the sysfs file is removed.
v2: rename sysfs entry from allow_stale_data_on_failure  to
    allow_stale_data_on_failure, and fix the confusing commit log.
v1: initial patch posted.

c81ffa32a2 bcache: fix sequential large write IO bypass
Sequential write IOs were tested with bs=1M by FIO in writeback cache
mode, these IOs were expected to be bypassed, but actually they did not.
We debug the code, and find in check_should_bypass():
    if (!congested &&
        mode == CACHE_MODE_WRITEBACK &&
        op_is_write(bio_op(bio)) &&
        (bio->bi_opf & REQ_SYNC))
        goto rescale
that means, If in writeback mode, a write IO with REQ_SYNC flag will not
be bypassed though it is a sequential large IO, It's not a correct thing
to do actually, so this patch remove these codes.

74d46992e0 block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O.  The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open.  Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device.  But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

thing.

749b61dab3 bcache: remove driver private bio splitting code
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.

4246a0b63b block: add a bi_error field to struct bio
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.

66114cad64 writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h
With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.

This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it.  c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly.  This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.

v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

dac56212e8 bio: skip atomic inc/dec of ->bi_cnt for most use cases
Struct bio has a reference count that controls when it can be freed.
Most uses cases is allocating the bio, which then returns with a
single reference to it, doing IO, and then dropping that single
reference. We can remove this atomic_dec_and_test() in the completion
path, if nobody else is holding a reference to the bio.

If someone does call bio_get() on the bio, then we flag the bio as
now having valid count and that we must properly honor the reference
count when it's being put.

da415a096f bcache: Fix moving_gc deadlocking with a foreground write
Deadlock happened because a foreground write slept, waiting for a bucket
to be allocated. Normally the gc would mark buckets available for invalidation.
But the moving_gc was stuck waiting for outstanding writes to complete.
These writes used the bcache_wq, the same queue foreground writes used.

This fix gives moving_gc its own work queue, so it was still finish moving
even if foreground writes are stuck waiting for allocation. It also makes
work queue a parameter to the data_insert path, so moving_gc can use its
workqueue for writes.
