Mike Snitzer 7eee4ae2db dm: disable WRITE SAME if it fails
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
to support partitions on multipath devices, via kpartx).

The function dm_accept_partial_bio allows the target to specify how many
sectors of the current bio it will process.  If the target only wants to
accept part of the bio, it calls dm_accept_partial_bio and the DM core
sends the rest of the data in next bio.

It is impossible to create bios with 2^23 or more sectors (the size is
stored as a 32-bit byte count in the bio). So we convert some sector_t
values to unsigned integers.

This is needed for the next commit ("dm: introduce
dm_accept_partial_bio") that replaces integer value arguments with

Jens Axboe b4f42e2831 block: remove struct request buffer member
This was used in the olden days, back when onions were proper
yellow. Basically it mapped to the current buffer to be
transferred. With highmem being added more than a decade ago,
most drivers map pages out of a bio, and rq->buffer isn't
pointing at anything valid.

Convert old style drivers to just use bio_data().

For the discard payload use case, just reference the page
in the bio.

Monam Agarwal 9cdb852004 dm: use RCU_INIT_POINTER instead of rcu_assign_pointer in __unbind
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.

Mikulas Patocka 2995fa78e4 dm sysfs: fix a module unload race
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.

Mikulas Patocka be35f48610 dm: wait until embedded kobject is released before destroying a device
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:

Kent Overstreet 1c3b13e64c dm: Refactor for new bio cloning/splitting
We need to convert the dm code to the new bvec_iter primitives which
respect bi_bvec_done; they also allow us to drastically simplify dm's
bio splitting code.

Also, it's no longer necessary to save/restore the bvec array anymore -
driver conversions for immutable bvecs are done, so drivers should never
be modifying it.

Also kill bio_sector_offset(), dm was the only user and it doesn't make
much sense anymore.

Mikulas Patocka 2c140a246d dm: allow remove to be deferred
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.

Mike Snitzer f84cb8a46a dm mpath: disable WRITE SAME if it fails
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.

Mikulas Patocka fd2ed4d252 dm: add statistics support
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

See Documentation/device-mapper/statistics.txt for more details.

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

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.

Hannes Reinecke 6c182cd88d dm mpath: fix ioctl deadlock when no paths
When multipath needs to retry an ioctl the reference to the
current live table needs to be dropped. Otherwise a deadlock
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

This provides a convenient way for a target to send the same data to

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.

Tejun Heo 3a366e614d block: add missing block_bio_complete() tracepoint
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.

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
