Since commit 63a4cc2486, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower

old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.

1/ Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing:
The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is
deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement either
ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm. ADR
(Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers to the
memory controller on a power-fail event. Flush addresses are defined in
ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure:
"Flush Hint Address Structure". A flush hint is an mmio address that
when written and fenced assures that all previous posted writes
targeting a given dimm have been flushed to media.
2/ On-demand ARS (address range scrub):
Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks
in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the media
to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a re-scrub at

Allow a user to specify an optional feature 'queue_mode <mode>' where

If the queue_mode feature isn't specified the default for the

it'll default to mode "mq".
This new queue_mode feature introduces the ability for each multipath

This patch has it use the bio and request data_dir helpers

DM multipath is the only dm-mq target. But that aside, request-based DM
only supports tables with a single target that is immutable. Leverage
this fact in dm_mq_queue_rq() by using the 'immutable_target' stored in
the mapped_device when the table was made active. This saves the need
to even take the read-side of the SRCU via dm_{get,put}_live_table.
If the active DM table does not have an immutable target (e.g. "error"

The request-based DM support for checking queue congestion doesn't
require access to the live DM table.
Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
Request-based DM's blk-mq support (dm-mq) was reported to be 50% slower
than if an underlying null_blk device were used directly. One of the
reasons for this drop in performance is that blk_insert_clone_request()
was calling blk_mq_insert_request() with @async=true. This forced the
use of kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on() to run the blk-mq hw queues
which ushered in ping-ponging between process context (fio in this case)
and kblockd's kworker to submit the cloned request. The ftrace
function_graph tracer showed:
kworker-2013 => fio-12190
fio-12190 => kworker-2013
...
kworker-2013 => fio-12190
fio-12190 => kworker-2013
...
Fixing blk_insert_clone_request()'s blk_mq_insert_request() call to
_not_ use kblockd to submit the cloned requests isn't enough to
eliminate the observed context switches.
In addition to this dm-mq specific blk-core fix, there are 2 DM core
fixes to dm-mq that (when paired with the blk-core fix) completely
eliminate the observed context switching:
1) don't blk_mq_run_hw_queues in blk-mq request completion
Motivated by desire to reduce overhead of dm-mq, punting to kblockd
just increases context switches.
In my testing against a really fast null_blk device there was no benefit
to running blk_mq_run_hw_queues() on completion (and no other blk-mq
driver does this). So hopefully this change doesn't induce the need for
yet another revert like commit 621739b00e !
2) use blk_mq_complete_request() in dm_complete_request()
blk_complete_request() doesn't offer the traditional q->mq_ops vs
.request_fn branching pattern that other historic block interfaces
do (e.g. blk_get_request). Using blk_mq_complete_request() for
blk-mq requests is important for performance. It should be noted
that, like blk_complete_request(), blk_mq_complete_request() doesn't
natively handle partial completions -- but the request-based
DM-multipath target does provide the required partial completion
support by dm.c:end_clone_bio() triggering requeueing of the request
via dm-mpath.c:multipath_end_io()'s return of DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE.
dm-mq fix#2 is _much_ more important than #1 for eliminating the
context switches.
Before: cpu : usr=15.10%, sys=59.39%, ctx=7905181, majf=0, minf=475
After: cpu : usr=20.60%, sys=79.35%, ctx=2008, majf=0, minf=472
With these changes multithreaded async read IOPs improved from ~950K
to ~1350K for this dm-mq stacked on null_blk test-case. The raw read
IOPs of the underlying null_blk device for the same workload is ~1950K.

However the check of fatal signal has not carried along when commit
6c182cd88d ("dm mpath: fix ioctl deadlock when no paths") moved the
loop from dm-mpath to dm core. As a result, we can't terminate such
a process in the retry loop.
Easy reproducer of the situation is:
# dmsetup create mp --table '0 1024 multipath 0 0 0 0'
# dmsetup message mp 0 'queue_if_no_path'
# sg_inq /dev/mapper/mp
then you should be able to terminate sg_inq by pressing Ctrl+C.

Commit 54efd50bfd ("block: make
generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios") makes it possible
for block devices to process large bios. In doing so that commit
allocates a new queue->bio_split bioset for each block device, this
bioset is used for allocating bios when the driver needs to split large
bios.
Each bioset allocates a workqueue process, thus the above commit
increases the number of processes allocated per block device.
DM doesn't need the queue->bio_split bioset, thus we can deallocate it.
This reduces the number of allocated processes per bio-based DM device
from 3 to 2. Also remove the call to blk_queue_split(), it is not
needed because DM does its own splitting.

Commit bfebd1cdb4 ("dm: add full blk-mq
support to request-based DM") moves the initialization of the fields
backing_dev_info.congested_fn, backing_dev_info.congested_data and
queuedata from the function dm_init_md_queue (that is called when the
device is created) to dm_init_old_md_queue (that is called after the
device type is determined).
There is no locking when accessing these variables, thus it is possible
for other parts of the kernel to briefly see this data in a transient
state (e.g. queue->backing_dev_info.congested_fn initialized and
md->queue->backing_dev_info.congested_data uninitialized, resulting in
passing an incorrect parameter to the function dm_any_congested).
This queue data is left initialized for blk-mq devices even though they
that don't use it.

end_clone_bio() is a endio callback for clone bio and should check
and save the clone's bi_error for error reporting. However,
4246a0b63b ("block: add a bi_error field to struct bio") changed
the function to check the original bio's bi_error, which is 0.
Without this fix, clone's error is ignored and reported to the
original request as success. Thus data corruption will be observed.

- Make /sys/block/<dev>/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
when deleting files. Enable the admin to configure the size down.
We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX

path). From Kent.

The way the block layer is currently written, it goes to great lengths
to avoid having to split bios; upper layer code (such as bio_add_page())
checks what the underlying device can handle and tries to always create
bios that don't need to be split.
But this approach becomes unwieldy and eventually breaks down with
stacked devices and devices with dynamic limits, and it adds a lot of
complexity. If the block layer could split bios as needed, we could
eliminate a lot of complexity elsewhere - particularly in stacked
drivers. Code that creates bios can then create whatever size bios are
convenient, and more importantly stacked drivers don't have to deal with
both their own bio size limitations and the limitations of the
(potentially multiple) devices underneath them. In the future this will
let us delete merge_bvec_fn and a bunch of other code.
We do this by adding calls to blk_queue_split() to the various
make_request functions that need it - a few can already handle arbitrary
size bios. Note that we add the call _after_ any call to
blk_queue_bounce(); this means that blk_queue_split() and
blk_recalc_rq_segments() don't need to be concerned with bouncing
affecting segment merging.
Some make_request_fn() callbacks were simple enough to audit and verify
they don't need blk_queue_split() calls. The skipped ones are:
* nfhd_make_request (arch/m68k/emu/nfblock.c)
* axon_ram_make_request (arch/powerpc/sysdev/axonram.c)
* simdisk_make_request (arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c)
* brd_make_request (ramdisk - drivers/block/brd.c)
* mtip_submit_request (drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.c)
* loop_make_request
* null_queue_bio
* bcache's make_request fns
Some others are almost certainly safe to remove now, but will be left
for future patches.

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.

cleanup, so that it destroys the mapped_device's srcu structure
'io_barrier' before destroying its workqueue.
The function that is executed on the workqueue (dm_wq_work) uses the srcu
structure, thus it may use it after being freed. That results in a

And the new version still depends on LLDDs to always complete requests

requirement. If the assumption is ever broken, the inconsistency between
request and bio (e.g. rq->__sector and rq->bio) will cause silent data

Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear. For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi. To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.
This patch moves bdi->state into wb.
* enum bdi_state is renamed to wb_state and the prefix of all enums is
changed from BDI_ to WB_.
* Explicit zeroing of bdi->state is removed without adding zeoring of
wb->state as the whole data structure is zeroed on init anyway.
* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
introducing no behavior changes.

dm_merge_bvec() was originally added in f6fccb ("dm: introduce
merge_bvec_fn"). In that commit a value in sectors is converted to
bytes using << 9, and then assigned to an int. This code made
assumptions about the value of BIO_MAX_SECTORS.
A later commit 148e51 ("dm: improve documentation and code clarity in
dm_merge_bvec") was meant to have no functional change but it removed
the use of BIO_MAX_SECTORS in favor of using queue_max_sectors(). At
this point the cast from sector_t to int resulted in a zero value. The
fallout being dm_merge_bvec() would only allow a single page to be added
to a bio.
This interim fix is minimal for the benefit of stable@ because the more
comprehensive cleanup of passing a sector_t to all DM targets' merge
function will impact quite a few DM targets.

When stacking request-based dm device on non blk-mq device and
device-mapper target could not map the request (error target is used,
multipath target with all paths down, etc), the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
free_rq_clone() will trigger when it shouldn't.
The warning was added by commit aa6df8d ("dm: fix free_rq_clone() NULL
pointer when requeueing unmapped request"). But free_rq_clone() with
clone->q == NULL is valid usage for the case where
dm_kill_unmapped_request() initiates request cleanup.
Fix this false warning by just removing the WARN_ON -- it only generated
false positives and was never useful in catching the intended case
(completing clone request not being mapped e.g. clone->q being NULL).

When stacking request-based DM on blk_mq device, request cloning and
remapping are done in a single call to target's clone_and_map_rq().
The clone is allocated and valid only if clone_and_map_rq() returns
DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED.
The "IS_ERR(clone)" check in map_request() does not cover all the
!DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED cases that are possible (E.g. if underlying devices
are not ready or unavailable, clone_and_map_rq() may return
DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE without ever having established an ERR_PTR). Fix this
by explicitly checking for a return that is not DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED in
map_request().
Without this fix, DM core may call setup_clone() for a NULL clone

Currently dm-multipath has to clone the bios for every request sent
to the lower devices, which wastes cpu cycles and ties down memory.
This patch instead adds a new REQ_CLONE flag that instructs req_bio_endio
to not complete bios attached to a request, which we set on clone
requests similar to bios in a flush sequence. With this change I/O
errors on a path failure only get propagated to dm-multipath, which
can then either resubmit the I/O or complete the bios on the original
request.
I've done some basic testing of this on a Linux target with ALUA support,
and it survives path failures during I/O nicely.

Commit 022333427a ("dm: optimize dm_mq_queue_rq to _not_ use kthread if
using pure blk-mq") mistakenly removed free_rq_clone()'s clone->q check
before testing clone->q->mq_ops. It was an oversight to discontinue
that check for 1 of the 2 use-cases for free_rq_clone():
1) free_rq_clone() called when an unmapped original request is requeued
2) free_rq_clone() called in the request-based IO completion path
The clone->q check made sense for case #1 but not for #2. However, we
cannot just reinstate the check as it'd mask a serious bug in the IO
completion case #2 -- no in-flight request should have an uninitialized
request_queue (basic block layer refcounting _should_ ensure this).
The NULL pointer seen for case #1 is detailed here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-April/msg00160.html
Fix this free_rq_clone() NULL pointer by simply checking if the
mapped_device's type is DM_TYPE_MQ_REQUEST_BASED (clone's queue is
blk-mq) rather than checking clone->q->mq_ops. This avoids the need to
dereference clone->q, but a WARN_ON_ONCE is added to let us know if an
uninitialized clone request is being completed.

Commit bfebd1cdb4 ("dm: add full blk-mq support to request-based DM")
didn't properly account for the need to short-circuit re-initializing

Otherwise, reloading a blk-mq request-based DM table (either manually
or via multipathd) resulted in errors, see:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-April/msg00132.html
Fix is to only initialize the request_queue on the initial table load
(when the mapped_device type is assigned).
This is better than having dm_init_request_based_blk_mq_queue() return
early if the queue was already initialized because it elevates the
constraint to a more meaningful location in DM core. As such the
pre-existing early return in dm_init_request_based_queue() can now be
removed.

Add device specific modes to dm-verity to specify how corrupted
blocks should be handled. The following modes are defined:
- DM_VERITY_MODE_EIO is the default behavior, where reading a
corrupted block results in -EIO.
- DM_VERITY_MODE_LOGGING only logs corrupted blocks, but does
not block the read.
- DM_VERITY_MODE_RESTART calls kernel_restart when a corrupted
block is discovered.
In addition, each mode sends a uevent to notify userspace of
corruption and to allow further recovery actions.
The driver defaults to previous behavior (DM_VERITY_MODE_EIO)
and other modes can be enabled with an additional parameter to
the verity table.

dm_mq_queue_rq() is in atomic context so care must be taken to not

completions of bios in a cloned request).
Also prepare for supporting DM blk-mq ontop of old-style request_fn

Commit e5863d9ad ("dm: allocate requests in target when stacking on
blk-mq devices") served as the first step toward fully utilizing blk-mq
in request-based DM -- it enabled stacking an old-style (request_fn)
request_queue ontop of the underlying blk-mq device(s). That first step
didn't improve performance of DM multipath ontop of fast blk-mq devices
(e.g. NVMe) because the top-level old-style request_queue was severely
limited by the queue_lock.
The second step offered here enables stacking a blk-mq request_queue
ontop of the underlying blk-mq device(s). This unlocks significant
performance gains on fast blk-mq devices, Keith Busch tested on his NVMe
testbed and offered this really positive news:
"Just providing a performance update. All my fio tests are getting
roughly equal performance whether accessed through the raw block
device or the multipath device mapper (~470k IOPS). I could only push
~20% of the raw iops through dm before this conversion, so this latest
tree is looking really solid from a performance standpoint."

Otherwise, for sequential workloads, the dm_request_fn can allow
excessive request merging at the expense of increased service time.
Add a per-device sysfs attribute to allow the user to control how long a
request, that is a reasonable merge candidate, can be queued on the
request queue. The resolution of this request dispatch deadline is in
microseconds (ranging from 1 to 100000 usecs), to set a 20us deadline:
echo 20 > /sys/block/dm-7/dm/rq_based_seq_io_merge_deadline
The dm_request_fn's merge heuristic and associated extra accounting is
disabled by default (rq_based_seq_io_merge_deadline is 0).
This sysfs attribute is not applicable to bio-based DM devices so it
will only ever report 0 for them.
By allowing a request to remain on the queue it will block others
requests on the queue. But introducing a short dequeue delay has proven
very effective at enabling certain sequential IO workloads on really
fast, yet IOPS constrained, devices to build up slightly larger IOs --
yielding 90+% throughput improvements. Having precise control over the
time taken to wait for larger requests to build affords control beyond
that of waiting for certain IO sizes to accumulate (which would require
a deadline anyway). This knob will only ever make sense with sequential
IO workloads and the particular value used is storage configuration
specific.
Given the expected niche use-case for when this knob is useful it has
been deemed acceptable to expose this relatively crude method for
crafting optimal IO on specific storage -- especially given the solution
is simple yet effective. In the context of DM multipath, it is
advisable to tune this sysfs attribute to a value that offers the best
performance for the common case (e.g. if 4 paths are expected active,
tune for that; if paths fail then performance may be slightly reduced).
Alternatives were explored to have request-based DM autotune this value
(e.g. if/when paths fail) but they were quickly deemed too fragile and
complex to warrant further design and development time. If this problem
proves more common as faster storage emerges we'll have to look at
elevating a generic solution into the block core.

Commit c4db59d31e ("fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to

Fix this by refactoring free_dev() to match cleanup order of the
alloc_dev() error path. Move cleanup of the gendisk, queue, and bdev
to _before_ the cleanup of the idr managed minor number.
Also, purely due to cleanup that fell out during the free_dev() audit:
- adjust dm_blk_close() to access the gendisk's private_data under
the _minor_lock spinlock.
- move __dm_destroy()'s dm_get_live_table() call out from under the

The "dm snapshot: suspend origin when doing exception handover" commit
fixed a exception store handover bug associated with pending exceptions
to the "snapshot-origin" target.
However, a similar problem exists in snapshot merging. When snapshot
merging is in progress, we use the target "snapshot-merge" instead of
"snapshot-origin". Consequently, during exception store handover, we
must find the snapshot-merge target and suspend its associated
mapped_device.
To avoid lockdep warnings, the target must be suspended and resumed
without holding _origins_lock.
Introduce a dm_hold() function that grabs a reference on a
mapped_device, but unlike dm_get(), it doesn't crash if the device has
the DMF_FREEING flag set, it returns an error in this case.
In snapshot_resume() we grab the reference to the origin device using
dm_hold() while holding _origins_lock (_origins_lock guarantees that the
device won't disappear). Then we release _origins_lock, suspend the
device and grab _origins_lock again.

In the function snapshot_resume we perform exception store handover. If
there is another active snapshot target, the exception store is moved
from this target to the target that is being resumed.
The problem is that if there is some pending exception, it will point to
an incorrect exception store after that handover, causing a crash due to
dm-snap-persistent.c:get_exception()'s BUG_ON.
This bug can be triggered by repeatedly changing snapshot permissions
with "lvchange -p r" and "lvchange -p rw" while there are writes on the
associated origin device.
To fix this bug, we must suspend the origin device when doing the
exception store handover to make sure that there are no pending
exceptions:
- introduce _origin_hash that keeps track of dm_origin structures.
- introduce functions __lookup_dm_origin, __insert_dm_origin and
__remove_dm_origin that manipulate the origin hash.
- modify snapshot_resume so that it calls dm_internal_suspend_fast() and
dm_internal_resume_fast() on the origin device.
NOTE to stable@ people:
When backporting to kernels 3.12-3.18, use dm_internal_suspend and
dm_internal_resume instead of dm_internal_suspend_fast and

The function dm_get_md finds a device mapper device with a given dev_t,
increases the reference count and returns the pointer.
dm_get_md calls dm_find_md, dm_find_md takes _minor_lock, finds the
device, tests that the device doesn't have DMF_DELETING or DMF_FREEING
flag, drops _minor_lock and returns pointer to the device. dm_get_md then
calls dm_get. dm_get calls BUG if the device has the DMF_FREEING flag,
otherwise it increments the reference count.
There is a possible race condition - after dm_find_md exits and before
dm_get is called, there are no locks held, so the device may disappear or
DMF_FREEING flag may be set, which results in BUG.
To fix this bug, we need to call dm_get while we hold _minor_lock. This
patch renames dm_find_md to dm_get_md and changes it so that it calls
dm_get while holding the lock.

For blk-mq request-based DM the responsibility of allocating a cloned
request is transfered from DM core to the target type. Doing so
enables the cloned request to be allocated from the appropriate
blk-mq request_queue's pool (only the DM target, e.g. multipath, can
know which block device to send a given cloned request to).
Care was taken to preserve compatibility with old-style block request
completion that requires request-based DM _not_ acquire the clone
request's queue lock in the completion path. As such, there are now 2
different request-based DM target_type interfaces:
1) the original .map_rq() interface will continue to be used for
non-blk-mq devices -- the preallocated clone request is passed in
from DM core.
2) a new .clone_and_map_rq() and .release_clone_rq() will be used for
blk-mq devices -- blk_get_request() and blk_put_request() are used
respectively from these hooks.
dm_table_set_type() was updated to detect if the request-based target is
being stacked on blk-mq devices, if so DM_TYPE_MQ_REQUEST_BASED is set.
DM core disallows switching the DM table's type after it is set. This
means that there is no mixing of non-blk-mq and blk-mq devices within
the same request-based DM table.

Switch to having request-based DM enqueue all prep'ed requests into work
processed by another thread. This allows request-based DM to invoke
block APIs that assume interrupt enabled context (e.g. blk_get_request)
and is a prerequisite for adding blk-mq support to request-based DM.
The new kernel thread is only initialized for request-based DM devices.
multipath_map() is now always in irq enabled context so change multipath
spinlock (m->lock) locking to always disable interrupts.

Request-based DM support for blk-mq devices requires that
dm_rq_target_io structures not be allocated with an embedded request
structure. The request-based DM target (e.g. dm-multipath) must
allocate the request from the blk-mq devices' request_queue using
blk_get_request().
The unfortunate side-effect of this change is old-style request-based DM
support will no longer use contiguous memory for the dm_rq_target_io and
request structures for each clone.

rcu_dereference() should be used in sections protected by rcu_read_lock.
For writers, holding some kind of mutex or lock,
rcu_dereference_protected() is the way to go, adding explicit lockdep

In __unbind(), we are the last user of this mapped device, so can use
the constant '1' instead of a lockdep_is_held(), not consistent with
other uses of rcu_dereference_protected() which use md->suspend_lock

Rename dm_internal_{suspend,resume} to dm_internal_{suspend,resume}_fast
-- dm-stats will continue using these methods to avoid all the extra
suspend/resume logic that is not needed in order to quickly flush IO.
Introduce dm_internal_suspend_noflush() variant that actually calls the
mapped_device's target callbacks -- otherwise target-specific hooks are
avoided (e.g. dm-thin's thin_presuspend and thin_postsuspend). Common
code between dm_internal_{suspend_noflush,resume} and
dm_{suspend,resume} was factored out as __dm_{suspend,resume}.
Update dm_internal_{suspend_noflush,resume} to always take and release
the mapped_device's suspend_lock. Also update dm_{suspend,resume} to be
aware of potential for DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to be set and respond
accordingly by interruptibly waiting for the DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to
be cleared. Add lockdep annotation to dm_suspend() and dm_resume().
The existing DM_SUSPEND_FLAG remains unchanged.
DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG is set by dm_internal_suspend_noflush() and
cleared by dm_internal_resume().
Both DM_SUSPEND_FLAG and DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG may be set if a device
was already suspended when dm_internal_suspend_noflush() was called --
this can be thought of as a "nested suspend". A "nested suspend" can
occur with legacy userspace dm-thin code that might suspend all active
thin volumes before suspending the pool for resize.
But otherwise, in the normal dm-thin-pool suspend case moving forward:
the thin-pool will have DM_SUSPEND_FLAG set and all active thins from
that thin-pool will have DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG set.
Also add DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG to status report. This new
DM_INTERNAL_SUSPEND_FLAG state is being reported to assist with
debugging (e.g. 'dmsetup info' will report an internally suspended
device accordingly).

These code changes do not introduce a functional change.
But bio_add_page() will never attempt to build up a bio larger than
queue_max_sectors(). Similarly, bio_get_nr_vecs() is also bound by
queue_max_sectors(). Therefore, there is no point in allowing
dm_merge_bvec() to answer "how many sectors can a bio have at this
offset?" with anything larger than queue_max_sectors(). Using
queue_max_sectors() rather than BIO_MAX_SECTORS serves to more
accurately convey the limits that are being imposed.
Also, use unlikely() to clarify the fact that the defensive code in
dm_merge_bvec() relative to max_size going negative shouldn't ever
happen -- if it does happen there is a bug in the block layer for
requesting larger than dm_merge_bvec()'s initial response for a given
offset. Also, update a comment in dm_merge_bvec() relative to
max_hw_sectors_kb. And fix empty newline whitespace.

Until this change, when loading a new DM table, DM core would re-open
all of the devices in the DM table. Now, DM core will avoid redundant
device opens (and closes when destroying the old table) if the old
table already has a device open using the same mode. This is achieved
by managing reference counts on the table_devices that DM core now
stores in the mapped_device structure (rather than in the dm_table
structure). So a mapped_device's active and inactive dm_tables' dm_dev
lists now just point to the dm_devs stored in the mapped_device's
table_devices list.
This improvement in DM core's device reference counting has the
side-effect of fixing a long-standing limitation of the multipath
target: a DM multipath table couldn't include any paths that were unusable
(failed). For example: if all paths have failed and you add a new,
working, path to the table; you can't use it since the table load would
fail due to it still containing failed paths. Now a re-load of a
multipath table can include failed devices and when those devices become
active again they can be used instantly.
The device list code in dm.c isn't a straight copy/paste from the code in
dm-table.c, but it's very close (aside from some variable renames). One
subtle difference is that find_table_device for the tables_devices list
will only match devices with the same name and mode. This is because we
don't want to upgrade a device's mode in the active table when an
inactive table is loaded.
Access to the mapped_device structure's tables_devices list requires a
mutex (tables_devices_lock), so that tables cannot be created and
destroyed concurrently.

Since DM core uses bio_clone_fast() for both bio-based and request-based
DM devices there is no need for DM's bioset to have a bvec mempool.
With this patch, on arch with 4KB page for example, memory usage will be
reduced by 64KB for each bio-based DM device and 1MB for each
request-based DM device.
For example, when you create 10,000 bio-based DM devices and 1,000
request-based DM devices, memory usage of biovec under no load is:
# grep biovec /proc/slabinfo
biovec-256 418068 418068 4096 ...
biovec-128 0 0 2048 ...
biovec-64 0 0 1024 ...
biovec-16 0 0 256 ...
With this patch series applied, the usage becomes:
# grep biovec /proc/slabinfo
biovec-256 116 116 4096 ...
biovec-128 0 0 2048 ...
biovec-64 0 0 1024 ...
biovec-16 0 0 256 ...
So 4096 * (418068 - 116) = 1.6GB of memory is saved in this example.

alloc_tio() uses bio_alloc_bioset() to allocate a clone-bio for a bio.
alloc_tio() takes the number of bvecs to allocate for the clone-bio.
However, with v3.14's immutable biovec changes DM now uses
__bio_clone_fast() and no longer needs to allocate bvecs.
In practice, the 'nr_iovecs' passed to alloc_tio() is always effectively
0. __clone_and_map_simple_bio() looked like it was passing non-zero
nr_iovecs, but its value was always within the range of inline bvecs and
no allocation actually happened. If allocation happened, the BUG_ON() in
__bio_clone_fast() would've triggered.
Remove the nr_iovecs parameter from alloc_tio() to prevent possible
future bio_alloc_bioset() mis-use of a new bioset interface that will no
longer allow bvecs to be allocated.
Also fix extra whitespace before the __bio_clone_fast() call in

The commit 2c140a246d ("dm: allow remove to be deferred") introduced a
deferred removal feature for the device mapper. When this feature is
used (by passing a flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE to DM_DEV_REMOVE_CMD ioctl)
and the user tries to remove a device that is currently in use, the
device will be removed automatically in the future when the last user
closes it.
Device mapper used the system workqueue to perform deferred removals.
However, some targets (dm-raid1, dm-mpath, dm-stripe) flush work items
scheduled for the system workqueue from their destructor. If the
destructor itself is called from the system workqueue during deferred
removal, it introduces a possible deadlock - the workqueue tries to flush
itself.
Fix this possible deadlock by introducing a new workqueue for deferred
removals. We allocate just one workqueue for all dm targets. The
ability of dm targets to process IOs isn't dependent on deferred removal
of unused targets, so a deadlock due to shared workqueue isn't possible.
Also, cleanup local_init() to eliminate potential for returning success
on failure.

Add DM core support for disabling WRITE SAME on first failure to both
request-based and bio-based targets. The need to disable WRITE SAME
stems from SCSI enabling it by default but then disabling it when it
fails. When SCSI does this it returns "permanent target failure, do
not retry" using -EREMOTEIO. Update DM core to only disable WRITE SAME
on failure if the returned error is -EREMOTEIO.
Commit f84cb8a4 ("dm mpath: disable WRITE SAME if it fails")
implemented multipath specific disabling of WRITE SAME if it fails.
However, as that commit detailed, the multipath-only solution doesn't go
far enough if bio-based DM targets are stacked ontop of the
request-based dm-multipath target (as is commonly done using dm-linear

Convert old style drivers to just use bio_data().
For the discard payload use case, just reference the page

Replace rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL).
The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure
is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. And in the
case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize. So,
rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to
RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL).

Device mapper uses the bio structure's bi_private field as a pointer
to dm_target_io or dm_rq_clone_bio_info. But a bio structure is
embedded in the dm_target_io and dm_rq_clone_bio_info structures, so the
pointer to the structure that contains the bio can be found with the
container_of() macro.

This reverts commit be35f48610 ("dm: wait until embedded kobject is
released before destroying a device") and provides an improved fix.
The kobject release code that calls the completion must be placed in a
non-module file, otherwise there is a module unload race (if the process
calling dm_kobject_release is preempted and the DM module unloaded after
the completion is triggered, but before dm_kobject_release returns).
To fix this race, this patch moves the completion code to dm-builtin.c
which is always compiled directly into the kernel if BLK_DEV_DM is
selected.
The patch introduces a new dm_kobject_holder structure, its purpose is
to keep the completion and kobject in one place, so that it can be
accessed from non-module code without the need to export the layout of
struct mapped_device to that code.

There may be other parts of the kernel holding a reference on the dm
kobject. We must wait until all references are dropped before
deallocating the mapped_device structure.
The dm_kobject_release method signals that all references are dropped
via completion. But dm_kobject_release doesn't free the kobject (which
is embedded in the mapped_device structure).
This is the sequence of operations:
* when destroying a DM device, call kobject_put from dm_sysfs_exit
* wait until all users stop using the kobject, when it happens the
release method is called
* the release method signals the completion and should return without
delay
* the dm device removal code that waits on the completion continues
* the dm device removal code drops the dm_mod reference the device had
* the dm device removal code frees the mapped_device structure that
contains the kobject
Using kobject this way should avoid the module unload race that was
mentioned at the beginning of this thread:

This patch allows the removal of an open device to be deferred until
it is closed. (Previously such a removal attempt would fail.)
The deferred remove functionality is enabled by setting the flag
DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE in the ioctl structure on DM_DEV_REMOVE or
DM_REMOVE_ALL ioctl.
On return from DM_DEV_REMOVE, the flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE indicates if
the device was removed immediately or flagged to be removed on close -
if the flag is clear, the device was removed.
On return from DM_DEV_STATUS and other ioctls, the flag
DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE is set if the device is scheduled to be removed on
closure.
A device that is scheduled to be deleted can be revived using the
message "@cancel_deferred_remove". This message clears the
DMF_DEFERRED_REMOVE flag so that the device won't be deleted on close.

Workaround the SCSI layer's problematic WRITE SAME heuristics by
disabling WRITE SAME in the DM multipath device's queue_limits if an
underlying device disabled it.
The WRITE SAME heuristics, with both the original commit 5db44863b6
("[SCSI] sd: Implement support for WRITE SAME") and the updated commit
66c28f971 ("[SCSI] sd: Update WRITE SAME heuristics"), default to enabling
WRITE SAME(10) even without successfully determining it is supported.
After the first failed WRITE SAME the SCSI layer will disable WRITE SAME
for the device (by setting sdkp->device->no_write_same which results in
'max_write_same_sectors' in device's queue_limits to be set to 0).
When a device is stacked ontop of such a SCSI device any changes to that
SCSI device's queue_limits do not automatically propagate up the stack.
As such, a DM multipath device will not have its WRITE SAME support
disabled. This causes the block layer to continue to issue WRITE SAME
requests to the mpath device which causes paths to fail and (if mpath IO
isn't configured to queue when no paths are available) it will result in
actual IO errors to the upper layers.
This fix doesn't help configurations that have additional devices
stacked ontop of the mpath device (e.g. LVM created linear DM devices
ontop). A proper fix that restacks all the queue_limits from the bottom
of the device stack up will need to be explored if SCSI will continue to
use this model of optimistically allowing op codes and then disabling
them after they fail for the first time.

Support the collection of I/O statistics on user-defined regions of
a DM device. If no regions are defined no statistics are collected so
there isn't any performance impact. Only bio-based DM devices are
currently supported.
Each user-defined region specifies a starting sector, length and step.
Individual statistics will be collected for each step-sized area within
the range specified.
The I/O statistics counters for each step-sized area of a region are
in the same format as /sys/block/*/stat or /proc/diskstats but extra
counters (12 and 13) are provided: total time spent reading and
writing in milliseconds. All these counters may be accessed by sending
the @stats_print message to the appropriate DM device via dmsetup.
The creation of DM statistics will allocate memory via kmalloc or
fallback to using vmalloc space. At most, 1/4 of the overall system
memory may be allocated by DM statistics. The admin can see how much
memory is used by reading
/sys/module/dm_mod/parameters/stats_current_allocated_bytes

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with

Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.
dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.
If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

When multipath needs to retry an ioctl the reference to the

occurs when all paths are down:
- dm_blk_ioctl takes a reference to the current table
and spins in multipath_ioctl().
- A new table is being loaded, but upon resume the process
hangs in dm_table_destroy() waiting for references to
drop to zero.
With this patch the reference to the old table is dropped
prior to retry, thereby avoiding the deadlock.

If an instance of a target sets this, it will be queried before the

controls the number of copies of the write bio that the target will

This provides a convenient way for a target to send the same data to
more than one device. The new cache target uses this in writethrough

The regression was introduced by the change
c0820cf5 "dm: introduce per_bio_data", where dm started to replace
bioset during table replacement.
For bio-based dm, it is good because clone bios do not exist during the
table replacement.
For request-based dm, however, (not-yet-mapped) clone bios may stay in
request queue and survive during the table replacement.
So freeing the old bioset could cause the oops in bio_put().
Since the size of front_pad may change only with bio-based dm,
it is not necessary to replace bioset for request-based dm.

bio completion didn't kick block_bio_complete TP. Only dm was
explicitly triggering the TP on IO completion. This makes
block_bio_complete TP useless for tracers which want to know about
bios, and all other bio based drivers skip generating blktrace
completion events.
This patch makes all bio completions via bio_endio() generate
block_bio_complete TP.
* Explicit trace_block_bio_complete() invocation removed from dm and
the trace point is unexported.
* @rq dropped from trace_block_bio_complete(). bios may fly around
w/o queue associated. Verifying and accessing the assocaited queue
belongs to TP probes.
* blktrace now gets both request and bio completions. Make it ignore
bio completions if request completion path is happening.
This makes all bio based drivers generate blktrace completion events
properly and makes the block_bio_complete TP actually useful.
v2: With this change, block_bio_complete TP could be invoked on sg
commands which have bio's with %NULL bi_bdev. Update TP
assignment code to check whether bio->bi_bdev is %NULL before
dereferencing.

Introduce a field per_bio_data_size in struct dm_target.
Targets can set this field in the constructor. If a target sets this
field to a non-zero value, "per_bio_data_size" bytes of auxiliary data
are allocated for each bio submitted to the target. These data can be
used for any purpose by the target and help us improve performance by
removing some per-target mempools.
Per-bio data is accessed with dm_per_bio_data. The
argument data_size must be the same as the value per_bio_data_size in
dm_target.
If the target has a pointer to per_bio_data, it can get a pointer to
the bio with dm_bio_from_per_bio_data() function (data_size must be the
same as the value passed to dm_per_bio_data).

Request based dm attempts to re-run the request queue off the

end_io from its request_fn, we could deadlock trying to recurse
back into request dispatch. Fix this by punting the request queue
run to kblockd.

Use the recently-added bio front_pad field to allocate struct dm_target_io.
Prior to this patch, dm_target_io was allocated from a mempool. For each
dm_target_io, there is exactly one bio allocated from a bioset.
This patch merges these two allocations into one allocation: we create a
bioset with front_pad equal to the size of dm_target_io so that every
bio allocated from the bioset has sizeof(struct dm_target_io) bytes
before it. We allocate a bio and use the bytes before the bio as
dm_target_io.
_tio_cache is removed and the tio_pool mempool is now only used for
request-based devices.
This idea was introduced by Kent Overstreet.

- Make bio_split() work on data-less bio's (like trim/discards).

Fixed up silent semantic mis-merge as per Mikulas Patocka and Andrew

Add a safety net that will re-use the DM device's existing limits in the
event that DM device has a temporary table that doesn't have any
component devices. This is to reduce the chance that requests not
respecting the hardware limits will reach the device.
DM recalculates queue limits based only on devices which currently exist
in the table. This creates a problem in the event all devices are
temporarily removed such as all paths being lost in multipath. DM will
reset the limits to the maximum permissible, which can then assemble
requests which exceed the limits of the paths when the paths are
restored. The request will fail the blk_rq_check_limits() test when
sent to a path with lower limits, and will be retried without end by
multipath. This became a much bigger issue after v3.6 commit fe86cdcef
("block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking
drivers").

The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to
dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7 ("dm: implement
REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly
drastic (but simple) response to this situation.
I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think
it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone
and original request with -EIO.
map_request() will assign the valid target returned by
dm_table_find_target to tio->ti. But when the target
isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't
called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().

Previously, dm_rq_clone_bio_info needed to be freed by the bio's
destructor to avoid a memory leak in the blk_rq_prep_clone() error path.
This gets rid of a memory allocation and means we can kill
dm_rq_bio_destructor.
The _rq_bio_info_cache kmem cache is unused now and needs to be deleted,
but due to the way io_pool is used and overloaded this looks not quite
trivial so I'm leaving it for a later patch.

implement your own destructor that knows how to find the bio pool the
bio was originally allocated from.

Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate
whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge
function returns. When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots
which can split them if necessary. Snapshot I/O may be significantly
fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance.
Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size
if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't
provide a merge function. After the patch, dm_set_device_limits
restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge
function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't
provide a merge function.
The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge
function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be
remapped. Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can
now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge
function. Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes,
it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the
filesystem on snapshot store.
If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function
(such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.

Remove 'discards_supported' from the dm_table structure. The same
information can be easily discovered from the table's target(s) in
dm_table_supports_discards().
Before this fix dm_table_supports_discards() would skip checking the
individual targets' 'discards_supported' flag if any one target in the
table didn't set num_discard_requests > 0. Now the per-target
'discards_supported' flag is effective at insuring the final DM device
advertises discard support. But, to be clear, targets that don't
support discards (!num_discard_requests) will not receive discard
requests.
Also DMWARN if a target sets 'discards_supported' override but forgets
