Commit ea8c5356d3 ("bcache: set max writeback rate when I/O request
is idle") changes struct bch_ratelimit member rate from uint32_t to
atomic_long_t and uses atomic_long_set() in drivers/md/bcache/sysfs.c
to set new writeback rate, after the input is converted from memory
buf to long int by sysfs_strtoul_clamp().
The above change has a problem because there is an implicit return
inside sysfs_strtoul_clamp() so the following atomic_long_set()
won't be called. This error is detected by 0day system with following
snipped smatch warnings:
drivers/md/bcache/sysfs.c:271 __cached_dev_store() error: uninitialized

270 sysfs_strtoul_clamp(writeback_rate, v, 1, INT_MAX);

@271 atomic_long_set(&dc->writeback_rate.rate, v);
This patch fixes the above error by using strtoul_safe_clamp() to
convert the input buffer into a long int type result.

The pr_err statement in the code for sysfs_attatch section would run
for various error codes, which maybe confusing.
E.g,
Run the command twice:
echo 796b5c05-b03c-4bc7-9cbd-a8df5e8be891 > \
/sys/block/bcache0/bcache/attach
[the backing dev got attached on the first run]
echo 796b5c05-b03c-4bc7-9cbd-a8df5e8be891 > \
/sys/block/bcache0/bcache/attach
In dmesg, after the command run twice, we can get:
bcache: bch_cached_dev_attach() Can't attach sda6: already attached
bcache: __cached_dev_store() Can't attach 796b5c05-b03c-4bc7-9cbd-\
a8df5e8be891
: cache set not found
The first statement in the message was right, but the second was
confusing.
bch_cached_dev_attach has various pr_ statements for various error
codes, except ENOENT.
After the change, rerun above command twice:
echo 796b5c05-b03c-4bc7-9cbd-a8df5e8be891 > \
/sys/block/bcache0/bcache/attach
echo 796b5c05-b03c-4bc7-9cbd-a8df5e8be891 > \
/sys/block/bcache0/bcache/attach
In dmesg we only got:
bcache: bch_cached_dev_attach() Can't attach sda6: already attached
No confusing "cache set not found" message anymore.
And for some not exist SET-UUID:
echo 796b5c05-b03c-4bc7-9cbd-a8df5e8be898 > \

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.

Greg KH suggests that normal code should not care about debugfs. Therefore
no matter successful or failed of debugfs_create_dir() execution, it is
unncessary to check its return value.
There are two functions called debugfs_create_dir() and check the return
value, which are bch_debug_init() and closure_debug_init(). This patch
changes these two functions from int to void type, and ignore return values
of debugfs_create_dir().
This patch does not fix exact bug, just makes things work as they should.

The get_seconds function is deprecated now since it returns a 32-bit
value that will eventually overflow, and we are replacing it throughout
the kernel with ktime_get_seconds() or ktime_get_real_seconds() that
return a time64_t.
bcache uses get_seconds() to read the current system time and store it in
the superblock as well as in uuid_entry structures that are user visible.
Unfortunately, the two structures in are still limited to 32 bits, so this
won't fix any real problems but will still overflow in year 2106. Let's
at least document that properly, in case we get an updated format in the
future it can be fixed. We still have a long time before the overflow
and checking the tools at https://github.com/koverstreet/bcache-tools
reveals no access to any of them.

I attached several backend devices in the same cache set, and produced lots
of dirty data by running small rand I/O writes in a long time, then I
continue run I/O in the others cached devices, and stopped a cached device,
after a mean while, I register the stopped device again, I see the running
I/O in the others cached devices dropped significantly, sometimes even
jumps to zero.
In currently code, bcache would traverse each keys and btree node to count
the dirty data under read locker, and the writes threads can not get the
btree write locker, and when there is a lot of keys and btree node in the
registering device, it would last several seconds, so the write I/Os in
others cached device are blocked and declined significantly.
In this patch, when a device registering to a ache set, which exist others
cached devices with running I/Os, we get the amount of dirty data of the
device in an incremental way, and do not block other cached devices all the
time.

This patch base on "[PATCH] bcache: finish incremental GC".
Since incremental GC would stop 100ms when front side I/O comes, so when
there are many btree nodes, if GC only processes constant (100) nodes each
time, GC would last a long time, and the front I/Os would run out of the
buckets (since no new bucket can be allocated during GC), and I/Os be
blocked again.
So GC should not process constant nodes, but varied nodes according to the
number of btree nodes. In this patch, GC is divided into constant (100)
times, so when there are many btree nodes, GC can process more nodes each
time, otherwise GC will process less nodes each time (but no less than
MIN_GC_NODES).

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.

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().

Currently bcache does not handle backing device failure, if backing
device is offline and disconnected from system, its bcache device can still
be accessible. If the bcache device is in writeback mode, I/O requests even
can success if the requests hit on cache device. That is to say, when and
how bcache handles offline backing device is undefined.
This patch tries to handle backing device offline in a rather simple way,
- Add cached_dev->status_update_thread kernel thread to update backing
device status in every 1 second.
- Add cached_dev->offline_seconds to record how many seconds the backing
device is observed to be offline. If the backing device is offline for
BACKING_DEV_OFFLINE_TIMEOUT (30) seconds, set dc->io_disable to 1 and
call bcache_device_stop() to stop the bache device which linked to the
offline backing device.
Now if a backing device is offline for BACKING_DEV_OFFLINE_TIMEOUT seconds,
its bcache device will be removed, then user space application writing on
it will get error immediately, and handler the device failure in time.
This patch is quite simple, does not handle more complicated situations.
Once the bcache device is stopped, users need to recovery the backing
device, register and attach it manually.

It is possible that multiple I/O requests hits on failed cache device or
backing device, therefore it is quite common that CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is
set already when a task tries to set the bit from bch_cache_set_error().
Currently the message "CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE already set" is printed by
pr_warn(), which might mislead users to think a serious fault happens in
source code.
This patch uses pr_info() to print the information in such situation,
avoid extra worries. This information is helpful to understand bcache
behavior in cache device failures, so I still keep them in source code.

Commit 7e027ca4b5 ("bcache: add stop_when_cache_set_failed option to
backing device") adds stop_when_cache_set_failed option and stops bcache
device if stop_when_cache_set_failed is auto and there is dirty data on
broken cache device. There might exists a small time gap that the cache
set is released and set to NULL but bcache device is not released yet
(because they are released in parallel). During this time gap, dc->c is
NULL so CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE won't be checked, and dc->io_disable is still
false, so new coming I/O requests will be accepted and directly go into
backing device as no cache set attached to. If there is dirty data on
cache device, this behavior may introduce potential inconsistent data.
This patch sets dc->io_disable to true before calling bcache_device_stop()
to make sure the backing device will reject new coming I/O request as
well, so even in the small time gap no I/O will directly go into backing
device to corrupt data consistency.

This patch counts the errors of writeback I/Os, in dirty_endio() if

By this fix, even there is no reqular I/O request coming, if writeback I/O

Commit c7b7bd0740 ("bcache: add io_disable to struct cached_dev") tries
to stop bcache device by calling bcache_device_stop() when too many I/O
errors happened on backing device. But if there is internal I/O happening
on cache device (writeback scan, garbage collection, etc), a regular I/O
request triggers the internal I/Os may still holds a refcount of dc->count,
and the refcount may only be dropped after the internal I/O stopped.
By this patch, bch_cached_dev_error() will check if the backing device is
attached to a cache set, if yes that CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE will be set to
flags of this cache set. Then internal I/Os on cache device will be
rejected and stopped immediately, and the bcache device can be stopped.
For people who are not familiar with the interesting refcount dependance,
let me explain a bit more how the fix works. Example the writeback thread
will scan cache device for dirty data writeback purpose. Before it stopps,
it holds a refcount of dc->count. When CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE bit is set,
the internal I/O will stopped and the while-loop in bch_writeback_thread()
quits and calls cached_dev_put() to drop dc->count. If this is the last
refcount to drop, then cached_dev_detach_finish() will be called. In this
call back function, in turn closure_put(dc->disk.cl) is called to drop a
refcount of closure dc->disk.cl. If this is the last refcount of this
closure to drop, then cached_dev_flush() will be called. Then the cached
device is freed. So if CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is not set, the bache device
can not be stopped until all inernal cache device I/O stopped. For large
size cache device, and writeback thread competes locks with gc thread,
there might be a quite long time to wait.

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().

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.

In order to catch I/O error of backing device, a separate bi_end_io

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

When there are too many I/O errors on cache device, current bcache code
will retire the whole cache set, and detach all bcache devices. But the
detached bcache devices are not stopped, which is problematic when bcache
is in writeback mode.
If the retired cache set has dirty data of backing devices, continue
writing to bcache device will write to backing device directly. If the
LBA of write request has a dirty version cached on cache device, next time
when the cache device is re-registered and backing device re-attached to
it again, the stale dirty data on cache device will be written to backing
device, and overwrite latest directly written data. This situation causes
a quite data corruption.
But we cannot simply stop all attached bcache devices when the cache set is
broken or disconnected. For example, use bcache to accelerate performance
of an email service. In such workload, if cache device is broken but no
dirty data lost, keep the bcache device alive and permit email service
continue to access user data might be a better solution for the cache
device failure.
Nix <nix@esperi.org.uk> points out the issue and provides the above example
to explain why it might be necessary to not stop bcache device for broken
cache device. Pavel Goran <via-bcache@pvgoran.name> provides a brilliant
suggestion to provide "always" and "auto" options to per-cached device
sysfs file stop_when_cache_set_failed. If cache set is retiring and the
backing device has no dirty data on cache, it should be safe to keep the
bcache device alive. In this case, if stop_when_cache_set_failed is set to
"auto", the device failure handling code will not stop this bcache device
and permit application to access the backing device with a unattached
bcache device.

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.

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.

struct delayed_work writeback_rate_update in struct cache_dev is a delayed
worker to call function update_writeback_rate() in period (the interval is
defined by dc->writeback_rate_update_seconds).
When a metadate I/O error happens on cache device, bcache error handling
routine bch_cache_set_error() will call bch_cache_set_unregister() to
retire whole cache set. On the unregister code path, this delayed work is
stopped by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync(&dc->writeback_rate_update).
dc->writeback_rate_update is a special delayed work from others in bcache.
In its routine update_writeback_rate(), this delayed work is re-armed
itself. That means when cancel_delayed_work_sync() returns, this delayed
work can still be executed after several seconds defined by
dc->writeback_rate_update_seconds.
The problem is, after cancel_delayed_work_sync() returns, the cache set
unregister code path will continue and release memory of struct cache set.
Then the delayed work is scheduled to run, __update_writeback_rate()
will reference the already released cache_set memory, and trigger a NULL
pointer deference fault.
This patch introduces two more bcache device flags,
- BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING
bit set: bcache device is in writeback mode and running, it is OK for
dc->writeback_rate_update to re-arm itself.
bit clear:bcache device is trying to stop dc->writeback_rate_update,
this delayed work should not re-arm itself and quit.
- BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING
bit set: routine update_writeback_rate() is executing.
bit clear: routine update_writeback_rate() quits.
This patch also adds a function cancel_writeback_rate_update_dwork() to
wait for dc->writeback_rate_update quits before cancel it by calling
cancel_delayed_work_sync(). In order to avoid a deadlock by unexpected
quit dc->writeback_rate_update, after time_out seconds this function will
give up and continue to call cancel_delayed_work_sync().
And here I explain how this patch stops self re-armed delayed work properly
with the above stuffs.
update_writeback_rate() sets BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING at its beginning
and clears BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING at its end. Before calling
cancel_writeback_rate_update_dwork() clear flag BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING.
Before calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() wait utill flag
BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING is clear. So when calling
cancel_delayed_work_sync(), dc->writeback_rate_update must be already re-
armed, or quite by seeing BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING cleared. In both cases
delayed work routine update_writeback_rate() won't be executed after
cancel_delayed_work_sync() returns.
Inside update_writeback_rate() before calling schedule_delayed_work(), flag
BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING is checked before. If this flag is cleared, it means
someone is about to stop the delayed work. Because flag
BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING is set already and cancel_delayed_work_sync()
has to wait for this flag to be cleared, we don't need to worry about race
condition here.
If update_writeback_rate() is scheduled to run after checking
BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING and before calling cancel_delayed_work_sync()
in cancel_writeback_rate_update_dwork(), it is also safe. Because at this
moment BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING is cleared with memory barrier. As I mentioned
previously, update_writeback_rate() will see BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING is clear
and quit immediately.
Because there are more dependences inside update_writeback_rate() to struct
cache_set memory, dc->writeback_rate_update is not a simple self re-arm
delayed work. After trying many different methods (e.g. hold dc->count, or
use locks), this is the only way I can find which works to properly stop
dc->writeback_rate_update delayed work.
Changelog:
v3: change values of BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING and BCACHE_DEV_RATE_DW_RUNNING
to bit index, for test_bit().
v2: Try to fix the race issue which is pointed out by Junhui.

In patch "bcache: fix cached_dev->count usage for bch_cache_set_error()",
cached_dev_get() is called when creating dc->writeback_thread, and
cached_dev_put() is called when exiting dc->writeback_thread. This
modification works well unless people detach the bcache device manually by
'echo 1 > /sys/block/bcache<N>/bcache/detach'
Because this sysfs interface only calls bch_cached_dev_detach() which wakes
up dc->writeback_thread but does not stop it. The reason is, before patch
"bcache: fix cached_dev->count usage for bch_cache_set_error()", inside
bch_writeback_thread(), if cache is not dirty after writeback,
cached_dev_put() will be called here. And in cached_dev_make_request() when
a new write request makes cache from clean to dirty, cached_dev_get() will
be called there. Since we don't operate dc->count in these locations,
refcount d->count cannot be dropped after cache becomes clean, and
cached_dev_detach_finish() won't be called to detach bcache device.
This patch fixes the issue by checking whether BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING is
set inside bch_writeback_thread(). If this bit is set and cache is clean
(no existing writeback_keys), break the while-loop, call cached_dev_put()
and quit the writeback thread.
Please note if cache is still dirty, even BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING is set the
writeback thread should continue to perform writeback, this is the original
design of manually detach.
It is safe to do the following check without locking, let me explain why,
+ if (!test_bit(BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING, &dc->disk.flags) &&
+ (!atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty) || !dc->writeback_running)) {
If the kenrel thread does not sleep and continue to run due to conditions
are not updated in time on the running CPU core, it just consumes more CPU
cycles and has no hurt. This should-sleep-but-run is safe here. We just
focus on the should-run-but-sleep condition, which means the writeback
thread goes to sleep in mistake while it should continue to run.
1, First of all, no matter the writeback thread is hung or not,
kthread_stop() from cached_dev_detach_finish() will wake up it and
terminate by making kthread_should_stop() return true. And in normal
run time, bit on index BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING is always cleared, the
condition
!test_bit(BCACHE_DEV_DETACHING, &dc->disk.flags)
is always true and can be ignored as constant value.
2, If one of the following conditions is true, the writeback thread should
go to sleep,
"!atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty)" or "!dc->writeback_running)"
each of them independently controls the writeback thread should sleep or
not, let's analyse them one by one.
2.1 condition "!atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty)"
If dc->has_dirty is set from 0 to 1 on another CPU core, bcache will
call bch_writeback_queue() immediately or call bch_writeback_add() which
indirectly calls bch_writeback_queue() too. In bch_writeback_queue(),
wake_up_process(dc->writeback_thread) is called. It sets writeback
thread's task state to TASK_RUNNING and following an implicit memory
barrier, then tries to wake up the writeback thread.
In writeback thread, its task state is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE before
doing the condition check. If other CPU core sets the TASK_RUNNING state
after writeback thread setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, the writeback thread
will be scheduled to run very soon because its state is not
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. If other CPU core sets the TASK_RUNNING state before
writeback thread setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, the implict memory barrier
of wake_up_process() will make sure modification of dc->has_dirty on
other CPU core is updated and observed on the CPU core of writeback
thread. Therefore the condition check will correctly be false, and
continue writeback code without sleeping.
2.2 condition "!dc->writeback_running)"
dc->writeback_running can be changed via sysfs file, every time it is
modified, a following bch_writeback_queue() is alwasy called. So the
change is always observed on the CPU core of writeback thread. If
dc->writeback_running is changed from 0 to 1 on other CPU core, this
condition check will observe the modification and allow writeback
thread to continue to run without sleeping.
Now we can see, even without a locking protection, multiple conditions
check is safe here, no deadlock or process hang up will happen.
I compose a separte patch because that patch "bcache: fix cached_dev->count
usage for bch_cache_set_error()" already gets a "Reviewed-by:" from Hannes
Reinecke. Also this fix is not trivial and good for a separate patch.

When bcache metadata I/O fails, bcache will call bch_cache_set_error()
to retire the whole cache set. The expected behavior to retire a cache
set is to unregister the cache set, and unregister all backing device
attached to this cache set, then remove sysfs entries of the cache set
and all attached backing devices, finally release memory of structs
cache_set, cache, cached_dev and bcache_device.
In my testing when journal I/O failure triggered by disconnected cache
device, sometimes the cache set cannot be retired, and its sysfs
entry /sys/fs/bcache/<uuid> still exits and the backing device also
references it. This is not expected behavior.
When metadata I/O failes, the call senquence to retire whole cache set is,
bch_cache_set_error()
bch_cache_set_unregister()
bch_cache_set_stop()
__cache_set_unregister() <- called as callback by calling
clousre_queue(&c->caching)
cache_set_flush() <- called as a callback when refcount
of cache_set->caching is 0
cache_set_free() <- called as a callback when refcount
of catch_set->cl is 0
bch_cache_set_release() <- called as a callback when refcount
of catch_set->kobj is 0
I find if kernel thread bch_writeback_thread() quits while-loop when
kthread_should_stop() is true and searched_full_index is false, clousre
callback cache_set_flush() set by continue_at() will never be called. The
result is, bcache fails to retire whole cache set.
cache_set_flush() will be called when refcount of closure c->caching is 0,
and in function bcache_device_detach() refcount of closure c->caching is
released to 0 by clousre_put(). In metadata error code path, function
bcache_device_detach() is called by cached_dev_detach_finish(). This is a
callback routine being called when cached_dev->count is 0. This refcount
is decreased by cached_dev_put().
The above dependence indicates, cache_set_flush() will be called when
refcount of cache_set->cl is 0, and refcount of cache_set->cl to be 0
when refcount of cache_dev->count is 0.
The reason why sometimes cache_dev->count is not 0 (when metadata I/O fails
and bch_cache_set_error() called) is, in bch_writeback_thread(), refcount
of cache_dev is not decreased properly.
In bch_writeback_thread(), cached_dev_put() is called only when
searched_full_index is true and cached_dev->writeback_keys is empty, a.k.a
there is no dirty data on cache. In most of run time it is correct, but
when bch_writeback_thread() quits the while-loop while cache is still
dirty, current code forget to call cached_dev_put() before this kernel
thread exits. This is why sometimes cache_set_flush() is not executed and
cache set fails to be retired.
The reason to call cached_dev_put() in bch_writeback_rate() is, when the
cache device changes from clean to dirty, cached_dev_get() is called, to
make sure during writeback operatiions both backing and cache devices
won't be released.
Adding following code in bch_writeback_thread() does not work,
static int bch_writeback_thread(void *arg)
}
+ if (atomic_read(&dc->has_dirty))
+ cached_dev_put()
+
return 0;
}
because writeback kernel thread can be waken up and start via sysfs entry:
echo 1 > /sys/block/bcache<N>/bcache/writeback_running
It is difficult to check whether backing device is dirty without race and
extra lock. So the above modification will introduce potential refcount
underflow in some conditions.
The correct fix is, to take cached dev refcount when creating the kernel
thread, and put it before the kernel thread exits. Then bcache does not
need to take a cached dev refcount when cache turns from clean to dirty,
or to put a cached dev refcount when cache turns from ditry to clean. The
writeback kernel thread is alwasy safe to reference data structure from
cache set, cache and cached device (because a refcount of cache device is
taken for it already), and no matter the kernel thread is stopped by I/O
errors or system reboot, cached_dev->count can always be used correctly.
The patch is simple, but understanding how it works is quite complicated.

This can happen e.g. during disk cloning.
This is an incomplete fix: it does not catch duplicate UUIDs earlier
when things are still unattached. It does not unregister the device.
Further changes to cope better with this are planned but conflict with
Coly's ongoing improvements to handling device errors. In the meantime,
one can manually stop the device after this has happened.
Attempts to attach a duplicate device result in:

dc->writeback_rate_update_seconds can be set via sysfs and its value can
be set to [1, ULONG_MAX]. It does not make sense to set such a large
value, 60 seconds is long enough value considering the default 5 seconds
works well for long time.
Because dc->writeback_rate_update is a special delayed work, it re-arms
itself inside the delayed work routine update_writeback_rate(). When
stopping it by cancel_delayed_work_sync(), there should be a timeout to
wait and make sure the re-armed delayed work is stopped too. A small max
value of dc->writeback_rate_update_seconds is also helpful to decide a
reasonable small timeout.
This patch limits sysfs interface to set dc->writeback_rate_update_seconds
in range of [1, 60] seconds, and replaces the hand-coded number by macros.

The stack shows the register thread and allocator thread
were getting stuck when registering cache device.
I reboot the machine several times, the issue always
exsit in this machine.
I debug the code, and found the call trace as bellow:
register_bcache()
==>run_cache_set()
==>bch_journal_replay()
==>bch_btree_insert()
==>__bch_btree_map_nodes()
==>btree_insert_fn()
==>btree_split() //node need split
==>btree_check_reserve()
In btree_check_reserve(), It will check if there is enough buckets
of RESERVE_BTREE type, since allocator thread did not work yet, so
no buckets of RESERVE_BTREE type allocated, so the register thread
waits on c->btree_cache_wait, and goes to sleep.
Then the allocator thread initialized, the call trace is bellow:
bch_allocator_thread()
==>bch_prio_write()
==>bch_journal_meta()
==>bch_journal()
==>journal_wait_for_write()
In journal_wait_for_write(), It will check if journal is full by
journal_full(), but the long time random small IO writing
causes the exhaustion of journal buckets(journal.blocks_free=0),
In order to release the journal buckets,
the allocator calls btree_flush_write() to flush keys to
btree nodes, and waits on c->journal.wait until btree nodes writing
over or there has already some journal buckets space, then the
allocator thread goes to sleep. but in btree_flush_write(), since
bch_journal_replay() is not finished, so no btree nodes have journal
(condition "if (btree_current_write(b)->journal)" never satisfied),
so we got no btree node to flush, no journal bucket released,
and allocator sleep all the times.
Through the above analysis, we can see that:
1) Register thread wait for allocator thread to allocate buckets of
RESERVE_BTREE type;
2) Alloctor thread wait for register thread to replay journal, so it
can flush btree nodes and get journal bucket.
then they are all got stuck by waiting for each other.
Hua Rui provided a patch for me, by allocating some buckets of
RESERVE_BTREE type in advance, so the register thread can get bucket
when btree node splitting and no need to waiting for the allocator
thread. I tested it, it has effect, and register thread run a step
forward, but finally are still got stuck, the reason is only 8 bucket
of RESERVE_BTREE type were allocated, and in bch_journal_replay(),
after 2 btree nodes splitting, only 4 bucket of RESERVE_BTREE type left,
then btree_check_reserve() is not satisfied anymore, so it goes to sleep
again, and in the same time, alloctor thread did not flush enough btree
nodes to release a journal bucket, so they all got stuck again.
So we need to allocate more buckets of RESERVE_BTREE type in advance,
but how much is enough? By experience and test, I think it should be
as much as journal buckets. Then I modify the code as this patch,
and test in the machine, and it works.
This patch modified base on Hua Rui’s patch, and allocate more buckets
of RESERVE_BTREE type in advance to avoid register thread and allocate
thread going to wait for each other.
[patch v2] ca->sb.njournal_buckets would be 0 in the first time after
cache creation, and no journal exists, so just 8 btree buckets is OK.

Struct cache uses io_errors for two purposes,
- Error decay: when cache set error_decay is set, io_errors is used to
generate a small piece of delay when I/O error happens.
- I/O errors counter: in order to generate big enough value for error
decay, I/O errors counter value is stored by left shifting 20 bits (a.k.a
IO_ERROR_SHIFT).
In function bch_count_io_errors(), if I/O errors counter reaches cache set
error limit, bch_cache_set_error() will be called to retire the whold cache
set. But current code is problematic when checking the error limit, see the
following code piece from bch_count_io_errors(),
90 if (error) {
91 char buf[BDEVNAME_SIZE];
92 unsigned errors = atomic_add_return(1 << IO_ERROR_SHIFT,
93 &ca->io_errors);
94 errors >>= IO_ERROR_SHIFT;
95
96 if (errors < ca->set->error_limit)
97 pr_err("%s: IO error on %s, recovering",
98 bdevname(ca->bdev, buf), m);
99 else
100 bch_cache_set_error(ca->set,
101 "%s: too many IO errors %s",
102 bdevname(ca->bdev, buf), m);
103 }
At line 94, errors is right shifting IO_ERROR_SHIFT bits, now it is real
errors counter to compare at line 96. But ca->set->error_limit is initia-
lized with an amplified value in bch_cache_set_alloc(),
1545 c->error_limit = 8 << IO_ERROR_SHIFT;
It means by default, in bch_count_io_errors(), before 8<<20 errors happened
bch_cache_set_error() won't be called to retire the problematic cache
device. If the average request size is 64KB, it means bcache won't handle
failed device until 512GB data is requested. This is too large to be an I/O
threashold. So I believe the correct error limit should be much less.
This patch sets default cache set error limit to 8, then in
bch_count_io_errors() when errors counter reaches 8 (if it is default
value), function bch_cache_set_error() will be called to retire the whole
cache set. This patch also removes bits shifting when store or show
io_error_limit value via sysfs interface.
Nowadays most of SSDs handle internal flash failure automatically by LBA
address re-indirect mapping. If an I/O error can be observed by upper layer
code, it will be a notable error because that SSD can not re-indirect
map the problematic LBA address to an available flash block. This situation
indicates the whole SSD will be failed very soon. Therefore setting 8 as
the default io error limit value makes sense, it is enough for most of
cache devices.

Kernel thread routine bch_writeback_thread() has the following code block,
447 down_write(&dc->writeback_lock);
448~450 if (check conditions) {
451 up_write(&dc->writeback_lock);
452 set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
453
454 if (kthread_should_stop())
455 return 0;
456
457 schedule();
458 continue;
459 }
If condition check is true, its task state is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
and call schedule() to wait for others to wake up it.
There are 2 issues in current code,
1, Task state is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE after the condition checks, if
another process changes the condition and call wake_up_process(dc->
writeback_thread), then at line 452 task state is set back to
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, the writeback kernel thread will lose a chance to be
waken up.
2, At line 454 if kthread_should_stop() is true, writeback kernel thread
will return to kernel/kthread.c:kthread() with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and
call do_exit(). It is not good to enter do_exit() with task state
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, in following code path might_sleep() is called and a
warning message is reported by __might_sleep(): "WARNING: do not call
blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=1 set at [xxxx]".
For the first issue, task state should be set before condition checks.
Ineed because dc->writeback_lock is required when modifying all the
conditions, calling set_current_state() inside code block where dc->
writeback_lock is hold is safe. But this is quite implicit, so I still move
set_current_state() before all the condition checks.
For the second issue, frankley speaking it does not hurt when kernel thread
exits with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state, but this warning message scares users,
makes them feel there might be something risky with bcache and hurt their
data. Setting task state to TASK_RUNNING before returning fixes this
problem.
In alloc.c:allocator_wait(), there is also a similar issue, and is also
fixed in this patch.
Changelog:
v3: merge two similar fixes into one patch
v2: fix the race issue in v1 patch.
v1: initial buggy fix.

The kernel work consumed a lot of CPU, and I found they are running journal
work, The journal is reclaiming source and flush btree node with surprising
frequency.
Through further analysis, we found that in btree_flush_write(), we try to
get a btree node with the smallest fifo idex to flush by traverse all the
btree nodein c->bucket_hash, after we getting it, since no locker protects
it, this btree node may have been written to cache device by other works,
and if this occurred, we retry to traverse in c->bucket_hash and get
another btree node. When the problem occurrd, the retry times is very high,
and we consume a lot of CPU in looking for a appropriate btree node.
In this patch, we try to record 128 btree nodes with the smallest fifo idex
in heap, and pop one by one when we need to flush btree node. It greatly
reduces the time for the loop to find the appropriate BTREE node, and also
reduce the occupancy of CPU.

Sometimes, Journal takes up a lot of CPU, we need statistics
to know what's the journal is doing. So this patch provide
some journal statistics:
1) reclaim: how many times the journal try to reclaim resource,
usually the journal bucket or/and the pin are exhausted.
2) flush_write: how many times the journal try to flush btree node
to cache device, usually the journal bucket are exhausted.
3) retry_flush_write: how many times the journal retry to flush
the next btree node, usually the previous tree node have been
flushed by other thread.
we show these statistic by sysfs interface. Through these statistics
We can totally see the status of journal module when the CPU is too
high.

Bcache needs to scale the dirty data in the cache over the multiple
backing disks in order to calculate writeback rates for each.
The previous code did this by multiplying the target number of dirty
sectors by the backing device size, and expected it to fit into a
uint64_t; this blows up on relatively small backing devices.
The new approach figures out the bdev's share in 16384ths of the overall
cached data. This is chosen to cope well when bdevs drastically vary in
size and to ensure that bcache can cross the petabyte boundary for each
backing device.
This has been improved based on Tang Junhui's feedback to ensure that
every device gets a share of dirty data, no matter how small it is
compared to the total backing pool.
The existing mechanism is very limited; this is purely a bug fix to
remove limits on volume size. However, there still needs to be change
to make this "fair" over many volumes where some are idle.

Bcache only does recoverable I/O for read operations by calling
cached_dev_read_error(). For write opertions there is no I/O recovery for
failed requests.
But in bch_count_io_errors() no matter read or write I/Os, before errors
counter reaches io error limit, pr_err() always prints "IO error on %,
recoverying". For write requests this information is misleading, because
there is no I/O recovery at all.
This patch adds a parameter 'is_read' to bch_count_io_errors(), and only
prints "recovering" by pr_err() when the bio direction is READ.

Member devices of struct cache_set is used to reference all attached
bcache devices to this cache set. If it is treated as array of pointers,
size of devices[] is indicated by member nr_uuids of struct cache_set.
nr_uuids is calculated in drivers/md/super.c:bch_cache_set_alloc(),
bucket_bytes(c) / sizeof(struct uuid_entry)
Bucket size is determined by user space tool "make-bcache", by default it
is 1024 sectors (defined in bcache-tools/make-bcache.c:main()). So default
nr_uuids value is 4096 from the above calculation.
Every time when bcache code iterates bcache devices of a cache set, all
the 4096 pointers are checked even only 1 bcache device is attached to the
cache set, that's a wast of time and unncessary.
This patch adds a member devices_max_used to struct cache_set. Its value
is 1 + the maximum used index of devices[] in a cache set. When iterating
all valid bcache devices of a cache set, use c->devices_max_used in
for-loop may reduce a lot of useless checking.
Personally, my motivation of this patch is not for performance, I use it
in bcache debugging, which helps me to narrow down the scape to check
valid bcached devices of a cache set.

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.

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).
