therefore macro block_bytes() can be used on both of them. When removing
the embedded struct cache_sb from struct cache_set, this macro won't be
used on struct cache_set anymore.

Currently although the bcache code has a framework for multiple caches
in a cache set, but indeed the multiple caches never completed and users
use md raid1 for multiple copies of the cached data.
This patch does the following change in struct cache_set, to explicitly
make a cache_set only have single cache,
- Change pointer array "*cache[MAX_CACHES_PER_SET]" to a single pointer
"*cache".
- Remove pointer array "*cache_by_alloc[MAX_CACHES_PER_SET]".
- Remove "caches_loaded".
Now the code looks as exactly what it does in practic: only one cache is

Commit 85750aeb74 ("bcache: use bio_{start,end}_io_acct") moves the
io account code to the location after bio_set_dev(bio, dc->bdev) in
cached_dev_make_request(). Then the account is performed incorrectly on
backing device, indeed the I/O should be counted to bcache device like
/dev/bcache0.
With the mistaken I/O account, iostat does not display I/O counts for
bcache device and all the numbers go to backing device. In writeback
mode, the hard drive may have 340K+ IOPS which is impossible and wrong
for spinning disk.
This patch introduces bch_bio_start_io_acct() and bch_bio_end_io_acct(),
which switches bio->bi_disk to bcache device before calling
bio_start_io_acct() or bio_end_io_acct(). Now the I/Os are counted to
bcache device, and bcache device, cache device and backing device have
their correct I/O count information back.

Bcache uses struct bbio to do I/Os for meta data pages like uuids,
disk_buckets, prio_buckets, and btree nodes.
Example writing a btree node onto cache device, the process is,
- Allocate a struct bbio from mempool c->bio_meta.
- Inside struct bbio embedded a struct bio, initialize bi_inline_vecs
for this embedded bio.
- Call bch_bio_map() to map each meta data page to each bv from the
inlined bi_io_vec table.
- Call bch_submit_bbio() to submit the bio into underlying block layer.
- When the I/O completed, only release the struct bbio, don't touch the
reference counter of the meta data pages.
The struct bbio is defined as,
738 struct bbio {
739 unsigned int submit_time_us;
[snipped]
748 struct bio bio;
749 };
Because struct bio is embedded at the end of struct bbio, therefore the
actual size of struct bbio is sizeof(struct bio) + size of the embedded
bio->bi_inline_vecs.
Now all the meta data bucket size are limited to meta_bucket_pages(), if
the bucket size is large than meta_bucket_pages()*PAGE_SECTORS, rested
space in the bucket is unused. Therefore the most used space in meta
bucket is (1<<MAX_ORDER) pages, or (1<<CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER) if it
is configured.
Therefore for large bucket size, it is unnecessary to calculate the
allocation size of mempool c->bio_meta as,
mempool_init_kmalloc_pool(&c->bio_meta, 2,
sizeof(struct bbio) +
sizeof(struct bio_vec) * bucket_pages(c))
It is too large, neither the Linux buddy allocator cannot allocate so
much continuous pages, nor the extra allocated pages are wasted.
This patch replace bucket_pages() to meta_bucket_pages() in two places,
- In bch_cache_set_alloc(), when initialize mempool c->bio_meta, uses
sizeof(struct bbio) + sizeof(struct bio_vec) * bucket_pages(c) to set
the allocating object size.
- In bch_bbio_alloc(), when calling bio_init() to set inline bvec talbe
bi_inline_bvecs, uses meta_bucket_pages() to indicate number of the
inline bio vencs number.
Now the maximum size of embedded bio inside struct bbio exactly matches
the limit of meta_bucket_pages(), no extra page wasted.

Mempool c->fill_iter is used to allocate memory for struct btree_iter in
bch_btree_node_read_done() to iterate all keys of a read-in btree node.
The allocation size is defined in bch_cache_set_alloc() by,
mempool_init_kmalloc_pool(&c->fill_iter, 1, iter_size))
where iter_size is defined by a calculation,
(sb->bucket_size / sb->block_size + 1) * sizeof(struct btree_iter_set)
For 16bit width bucket_size the calculation is OK, but now the bucket
size is extended to 32bit, the bucket size can be 2GB. By the above
calculation, iter_size can be 2048 pages (order 11 is still accepted by
buddy allocator).
But the actual size holds the bkeys in meta data bucket is limited to
meta_bucket_pages() already, which is 16MB. By the above calculation,
if replace sb->bucket_size by meta_bucket_pages() * PAGE_SECTORS, the
result is 16 pages. This is the size large enough for the mempool
allocation to struct btree_iter.
Therefore in worst case every time mempool c->fill_iter allocates, at
most 4080 pages are wasted and won't be used. Therefore this patch uses
meta_bucket_pages() * PAGE_SECTORS to calculate the iter size in
bch_cache_set_alloc(), to avoid extra memory allocation from mempool
c->fill_iter.

The large bucket feature is to extend bucket_size from 16bit to 32bit.
When create cache device on zoned device (e.g. zoned NVMe SSD), making
a single bucket cover one or more zones of the zoned device is the
simplest way to support zoned device as cache by bcache.
But current maximum bucket size is 16MB and a typical zone size of zoned
device is 256MB, this is the major motiviation to extend bucket size to
a larger bit width.
This patch is the basic and first change to support large bucket size,
the major changes it makes are,
- Add BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LARGE_BUCKET for the large bucket feature,
INCOMPAT means it introduces incompatible on-disk format change.
- Add BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_FUNCS(large_bucket, LARGE_BUCKET) routines.
- Adds __le16 bucket_size_hi into struct cache_sb_disk at offset 0x8d0
for the on-disk super block format.
- For the in-memory super block struct cache_sb, member bucket_size is
extended from __u16 to __32.
- Add get_bucket_size() to combine the bucket_size and bucket_size_hi
from struct cache_sb_disk into an unsigned int value.
Since we already have large bucket size helpers meta_bucket_pages(),
meta_bucket_bytes() and alloc_meta_bucket_pages(), they make sure when
bucket size > 8MB, the memory allocation for bcache meta data bucket
won't fail no matter how large the bucket size extended. So these meta
data buckets are handled properly when the bucket size width increase
from 16bit to 32bit, we don't need to worry about them.

Currently the bcache internal btree node occupies a whole bucket. When
loading the btree node from cache device into memory, mca_data_alloc()
will call bch_btree_keys_alloc() to allocate memory for the whole bucket
size, ilog2(b->c->btree_pages) is send to bch_btree_keys_alloc() as the
parameter 'page_order'.
c->btree_pages is set as bucket_pages() in bch_cache_set_alloc(), for
bucket size > 8MB, ilog2(b->c->btree_pages) is 12 for 4KB page size. By
default the maximum page order __get_free_pages() accepts is MAX_ORDER
(11), in this condition bch_btree_keys_alloc() will always fail.
Because of other over-page-order allocation failure fails the cache
device registration, such btree node allocation failure wasn't observed
during runtime. After other blocking page allocation failures for bucket
size > 8MB, this btree node allocation issue may trigger potentical risk
e.g. infinite dead-loop to retry btree node allocation after failure.
This patch fixes the potential problem by setting c->btree_pages to
meta_bucket_pages() in bch_cache_set_alloc(). In the condition that
bucket size > 8MB, meta_bucket_pages() will always return a number which
won't exceed the maximum page order of the buddy allocator.

In bch_btree_cache_alloc() when CONFIG_BCACHE_DEBUG is configured,
allocate memory for c->verify_ondisk may fail if the bucket size > 8MB,
which will require __get_free_pages() to allocate continuous pages
with order > 11 (the default MAX_ORDER of Linux buddy allocator). Such
over size allocation will fail, and cause 2 problems,
- When CONFIG_BCACHE_DEBUG is configured, bch_btree_verify() does not
work, because c->verify_ondisk is NULL and bch_btree_verify() returns
immediately.
- bch_btree_cache_alloc() will fail due to c->verify_ondisk allocation
failed, then the whole cache device registration fails. And because of
this failure, the first problem of bch_btree_verify() has no chance to
be triggered.
This patch fixes the above problem by two means,
1) If pages allocation of c->verify_ondisk fails, set it to NULL and
returns bch_btree_cache_alloc() with -ENOMEM.
2) When calling __get_free_pages() to allocate c->verify_ondisk pages,
use ilog2(meta_bucket_pages(&c->sb)) to make sure ilog2() will always
generate a pages order <= MAX_ORDER (or CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER).
Then the buddy system won't directly reject the allocation request.

Similar to c->uuids, struct cache's prio_buckets and disk_buckets also
have the potential memory allocation failure during cache registration
if the bucket size > 8MB.
ca->prio_buckets can be stored on cache device in multiple buckets, its
in-memory space is allocated by kzalloc() interface but normally
allocated by alloc_pages() because the size > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE.
So allocation of ca->prio_buckets has the MAX_ORDER restriction too. If
the bucket size > 8MB, by default the page allocator will fail because
the page order > 11 (default MAX_ORDER value). ca->prio_buckets should
also use meta_bucket_bytes(), meta_bucket_pages() to decide its memory
size and use alloc_meta_bucket_pages() to allocate pages, to avoid the
allocation failure during cache set registration when bucket size > 8MB.
ca->disk_buckets is a single bucket size memory buffer, it is used to
iterate each bucket of ca->prio_buckets, and compose the bio based on
memory of ca->disk_buckets, then write ca->disk_buckets memory to cache
disk one-by-one for each bucket of ca->prio_buckets. ca->disk_buckets
should have in-memory size exact to the meta_bucket_pages(), this is the
size that ca->prio_buckets will be stored into each on-disk bucket.
This patch fixes the above issues and handle cache's prio_buckets and

Currently the in-memory meta data like c->uuids or c->disk_buckets
are allocated by alloc_bucket_pages(). The macro alloc_bucket_pages()
calls __get_free_pages() to allocated continuous pages with order
indicated by ilog2(bucket_pages(c)),
#define alloc_bucket_pages(gfp, c) \
((void *) __get_free_pages(__GFP_ZERO|gfp, ilog2(bucket_pages(c))))
The maximum order is defined as MAX_ORDER, the default value is 11 (and
can be overwritten by CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER). In bcache code the
maximum bucket size width is 16bits, this is restricted both by KEY_SIZE
size and bucket_size size from struct cache_sb_disk. The maximum 16bits
width and power-of-2 value is (1<<15) in unit of sector (512byte). It
means the maximum value of bucket size in bytes is (1<<24) bytes a.k.a
4096 pages.
When the bucket size is set to maximum permitted value, ilog2(4096) is
12, which exceeds the default maximum order __get_free_pages() can
accepted, the failed pages allocation will fail cache set registration
procedure and print a kernel oops message for the exceeded pages order.
This patch introduces meta_bucket_pages(), meta_bucket_bytes(), and
alloc_bucket_pages() helper routines. meta_bucket_pages() indicates the
maximum pages can be allocated to meta data bucket, meta_bucket_bytes()
indicates the according maximum bytes, and alloc_bucket_pages() does
the pages allocation for meta bucket. Because meta_bucket_pages()
chooses the smaller value among the bucket size and MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES,
it still works when MAX_ORDER overwritten by CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER.
Following patches will use these helper routines to decide maximum pages
can be allocated for different meta data buckets. If the bucket size is
larger than meta_bucket_bytes(), the bcache registration can continue to
success, just the space more than meta_bucket_bytes() inside the bucket
is wasted. Comparing bcache failed for large bucket size, wasting some
space for meta data buckets is acceptable at this moment.

__le64 feature_compat;
__le64 feature_incompat;
__le64 feature_ro_compat;
They are used for further new features which may introduce on-disk
format change, and avoid unncessary super block version increase.
The very basic features handling code skeleton is also initialized in
this patch.

In register_cache_set(), c is pointer to struct cache_set, and ca is
pointer to struct cache, if ca->sb.seq > c->sb.seq, it means this
registering cache has up to date version and other members, the in-
memory version and other members should be updated to the newer value.
But current implementation makes a cache set only has a single cache
device, so the above assumption works well except for a special case.
The execption is when a cache device new created and both ca->sb.seq and
c->sb.seq are 0, because the super block is never flushed out yet. In
the location for the following if() check,
2156 if (ca->sb.seq > c->sb.seq) {
2157 c->sb.version = ca->sb.version;
2158 memcpy(c->sb.set_uuid, ca->sb.set_uuid, 16);
2159 c->sb.flags = ca->sb.flags;
2160 c->sb.seq = ca->sb.seq;
2161 pr_debug("set version = %llu\n", c->sb.version);
2162 }
c->sb.version is not initialized yet and valued 0. When ca->sb.seq is 0,
the if() check will fail (because both values are 0), and the cache set
version, set_uuid, flags and seq won't be updated.
The above problem is hiden for current code, because the bucket size is
compatible among different super block version. And the next time when
running cache set again, ca->sb.seq will be larger than 0 and cache set
super block version will be updated properly.
But if the large bucket feature is enabled, sb->bucket_size is the low
16bits of the bucket size. For a power of 2 value, when the actual
bucket size exceeds 16bit width, sb->bucket_size will always be 0. Then
read_super_common() will fail because the if() check to
is_power_of_2(sb->bucket_size) is false. This is how the long time
hidden bug is triggered.
This patch modifies the if() check to the following way,
2156 if (ca->sb.seq > c->sb.seq || c->sb.seq == 0) {
Then cache set's version, set_uuid, flags and seq will always be updated
corectly including for a new created cache device.

offset_to_stripe() returns the stripe number (in type unsigned int) from
an offset (in type uint64_t) by the following calculation,
do_div(offset, d->stripe_size);
For large capacity backing device (e.g. 18TB) with small stripe size
(e.g. 4KB), the result is 4831838208 and exceeds UINT_MAX. The actual
returned value which caller receives is 536870912, due to the overflow.
Indeed in bcache_device_init(), bcache_device->nr_stripes is limited in
range [1, INT_MAX]. Therefore all valid stripe numbers in bcache are
in range [0, bcache_dev->nr_stripes - 1].
This patch adds a upper limition check in offset_to_stripe(): the max
valid stripe number should be less than bcache_device->nr_stripes. If
the calculated stripe number from do_div() is equal to or larger than
bcache_device->nr_stripe, -EINVAL will be returned. (Normally nr_stripes
is less than INT_MAX, exceeding upper limitation doesn't mean overflow,
therefore -EOVERFLOW is not used as error code.)
This patch also changes nr_stripes' type of struct bcache_device from
'unsigned int' to 'int', and return value type of offset_to_stripe()
from 'unsigned int' to 'int', to match their exact data ranges.
All locations where bcache_device->nr_stripes and offset_to_stripe() are
referenced also get updated for the above type change.

It's possible for a block driver to set logical block size to
a value greater than page size incorrectly; e.g. bcache takes
the value from the superblock, set by the user w/ make-bcache.
This causes a BUG/NULL pointer dereference in the path:
__blkdev_get()
-> set_init_blocksize() // set i_blkbits based on ...
-> bdev_logical_block_size()
-> queue_logical_block_size() // ... this value
-> bdev_disk_changed()
...
-> blkdev_readpage()
-> block_read_full_page()
-> create_page_buffers() // size = 1 << i_blkbits
-> create_empty_buffers() // give size/take pointer
-> alloc_page_buffers() // return NULL
.. BUG!
Because alloc_page_buffers() is called with size > PAGE_SIZE,
thus it initializes head = NULL, skips the loop, return head;
then create_empty_buffers() gets (and uses) the NULL pointer.
This has been around longer than commit ad6bf88a6c ("block:
fix an integer overflow in logical block size"); however, it
increased the range of values that can trigger the issue.
Previously only 8k/16k/32k (on x86/4k page size) would do it,
as greater values overflow unsigned short to zero, and queue_
logical_block_size() would then use the default of 512.
Now the range with unsigned int is much larger, and users w/
the 512k value, which happened to be zero'ed previously and
work fine, started to hit this issue -- as the zero is gone,
and queue_logical_block_size() does return 512k (>PAGE_SIZE.)
Fix this by checking the bcache device's logical block size,
and if it's greater than page size, fallback to the backing/
cached device's logical page size.
This doesn't affect cache devices as those are still checked
for block/page size in read_super(); only the backing/cached
devices are not.
Apparently it's a regression from commit 2903381fce ("bcache:
Take data offset from the bdev superblock."), moving the check
into BCACHE_SB_VERSION_CDEV only. Now that we have superblocks
of backing devices out there with this larger value, we cannot
refuse to load them (i.e., have a similar check in _BDEV.)
Ideally perhaps bcache should use all values from the backing
device (physical/logical/io_min block size)? But for now just
fix the problematic case.
Test-case:
# IMG=/root/disk.img
# dd if=/dev/zero of=$IMG bs=1 count=0 seek=1G
# DEV=$(losetup --find --show $IMG)
# make-bcache --bdev $DEV --block 8k

In order to avoid the experimental async registration interface to
be treated as new kernel ABI for common users, this patch makes it
as an experimental kernel configure BCACHE_ASYNC_REGISTRAION.
This interface is for extreme large cached data situation, to make sure
the bcache device can always created without the udev timeout issue. For
normal users the async or sync registration does not make difference.
In future when we decide to use the asynchronous registration as default
behavior, this experimental interface may be removed.

When there is a lot of data cached on cache device, the bcach internal
btree can take a very long to validate during the backing device and
cache device registration. In my test, it may takes 55+ minutes to check
all the internal btree nodes.
The problem is that the registration is invoked by udev rules and the
udevd has 180 seconds timeout by default. If the btree node checking
time is longer than udevd timeout, the registering process will be
killed by udevd with SIGKILL. If the registering process has pending
sigal, creating kthread for bcache will fail and the device registration
will fail. The result is, for bcache device which cached a lot of data
on cache device, the bcache device node like /dev/bcache<N> won't create
always due to the very long btree checking time.
A solution to avoid the udevd 180 seconds timeout is to register devices
in an asynchronous way. Which is, after writing cache or backing device
path into /sys/fs/bcache/register_async, the kernel code will create a
kworker and move all the btree node checking (for cache device) or dirty
data counting (for cached device) in the kwork context. Then the kworder
is scheduled on system_wq and the registration code just returned to
user space udev rule task. By this asynchronous way, the udev task for
bcache rule will complete in seconds, no matter how long time spent in
the kworker context, it won't be killed by udevd for a timeout.
After all the checking and counting are done asynchronously in the
kworker, the bcache device will eventually be created successfully.
This patch does the above chagne and add a register sysfs file
/sys/fs/bcache/register_async. Writing the registering device path into
this sysfs file will do the asynchronous registration.
The register_async interface is for very rare condition and won't be
used for common users. In future I plan to make the asynchronous
registration as default behavior, which depends on feedback for this
patch.

device waits for the cache device shows up for the missing dirty
data.
- Now echo 1 into /sys/fs/bcache/pendings_cleanup, to stop the pending
backing device.
- After the pending backing device stopped, use 'dmesg' to check kernel
message, a use-after-free warning from KASA reported the refcount of
kobject linked to the 'disk' is underflow.
The dropping refcount at line 808 in the above code piece is added by
add_disk(d->disk) in bch_cached_dev_run(). But in the above condition
the cache device is not registered, bch_cached_dev_run() has no chance
to be called and the refcount is not added. The put_disk() for a non-
added refcount of gendisk kobject triggers a underflow warning.
This patch checks whether GENHD_FL_UP is set in disk->flags, if it is
not set then the bcache device was not added, don't call put_disk()
and the the underflow issue can be avoided.

This patch replaces smp_mb() with smp_mb__before_atomic() or

When attaching a cached device (a.k.a backing device) to a cache
device, bch_sectors_dirty_init() is called to count dirty sectors
and stripes (see what bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() does) on the
cache device.
The counting is done by a single thread recursive function
bch_btree_map_keys() to iterate all the bcache btree nodes.
If the btree has huge number of nodes, bch_sectors_dirty_init() will
take quite long time. In my testing, if the registering cache set has
a existed UUID which matches a already registered cached device, the
automatical attachment during the registration may take more than
55 minutes. This is too long for waiting the bcache to work in real
deployment.
Fortunately when bch_sectors_dirty_init() is called, no other thread
will access the btree yet, it is safe to do a read-only parallelized
dirty sectors counting by multiple threads.
This patch tries to create multiple threads, and each thread tries to
one-by-one count dirty sectors from the sub-tree indexed by a root
node key which the thread fetched. After the sub-tree is counted, the
counting thread will continue to fetch another root node key, until
the fetched key is NULL. How many threads in parallel depends on
the number of keys from the btree root node, and the number of online
CPU core. The thread number will be the less number but no more than
BCH_DIRTY_INIT_THRD_MAX. If there are only 2 keys in root node, it
can only be 2x times faster by this patch. But if there are 10 keys
in the root node, with this patch it can be 10x times faster.

When registering a cache device, bch_btree_check() is called to check
all btree nodes, to make sure the btree is consistent and not
corrupted.
bch_btree_check() is recursively executed in a single thread, when there
are a lot of data cached and the btree is huge, it may take very long
time to check all the btree nodes. In my testing, I observed it took
around 50 minutes to finish bch_btree_check().
When checking the bcache btree nodes, the cache set is not running yet,
and indeed the whole tree is in read-only state, it is safe to create
multiple threads to check the btree in parallel.
This patch tries to create multiple threads, and each thread tries to
one-by-one check the sub-tree indexed by a key from the btree root node.
The parallel thread number depends on how many keys in the btree root
node. At most BCH_BTR_CHKTHREAD_MAX (64) threads can be created, but in
practice is should be min(cpu-number/2, root-node-keys-number).

In my testing, sometimes even all the cached btree nodes are freed,

is triggered by memory consuption in bch_btree_check().
Therefore explicitly shrinking bcache btree node here does not help,
and after the shrinker callback is improved, as well as pending signals
are ignored before creating kernel threads, now such operation is
unncessary anymore.

When run a cache set, all the bcache btree node of this cache set will
be checked by bch_btree_check(). If the bcache btree is very large,
iterating all the btree nodes will occupy too much system memory and
the bcache registering process might be selected and killed by system
OOM killer. kthread_run() will fail if current process has pending
signal, therefore the kthread creating in run_cache_set() for gc and
allocator kernel threads are very probably failed for a very large
bcache btree.
Indeed such OOM is safe and the registering process will exit after
the registration done. Therefore this patch flushes pending signals
during the cache set start up, specificly in bch_cache_allocator_start()
and bch_gc_thread_start(), to make sure run_cache_set() won't fail for

In now days, SSD price drops a lot and people can find larger size
SSD with more comfortable price. It is unncessary to alway bypass

This patch adds options for readahead data cache policies via sysfs

- "all": cache all readahead data I/Os.
- "meta-only": only cache meta data, and bypass other regular I/Os.
If users want to make bcache continue to only cache readahead request
for metadata and bypass regular data readahead, please set "meta-only"
to this sysfs file. By default, bcache will back to cache all read-

bkey_idx((struct bkey *) (i)->d, (i)->keys)
Parameter i can be variable type of data structure, the macro always
works once the type of struct i has member 'd' and 'keys'.
bset_bkey_last() is also used in macro csum_set() to calculate the
checksum of a on-disk data structure. When csum_set() is used to
calculate checksum of on-disk bcache super block, the parameter 'i'
data type is struct cache_sb_disk. Inside struct cache_sb_disk (also in
struct cache_sb) the member keys is __u16 type. But bkey_idx() expects
unsigned int (a 32bit width), so there is problem when sending
parameters via stack to call bkey_idx().
Sparse tool from Intel 0day kbuild system reports this incompatible
problem. bkey_idx() is part of user space API, so the simplest fix is
to cast the (i)->keys to unsigned int type in macro bset_bkey_last().

order.

In order to skip the most recently freed btree node cahce, currently
in bch_mca_scan() the first 3 caches in c->btree_cache_freeable list
are skipped when shrinking bcache node caches in bch_mca_scan(). The
related code in bch_mca_scan() is,
737 list_for_each_entry_safe(b, t, &c->btree_cache_freeable, list) {
738 if (nr <= 0)
739 goto out;

741 if (++i > 3 &&
742 !mca_reap(b, 0, false)) {
lines free cache memory

747 nr--;

The problem is, if virtual memory code calls bch_mca_scan() and
the calculated 'nr' is 1 or 2, then in the above loop, nothing will
be shunk. In such case, if slub/slab manager calls bch_mca_scan()
for many times with small scan number, it does not help to shrink
cache memory and just wasts CPU cycles.
This patch just selects btree node caches from tail of the
c->btree_cache_freeable list, then the newly freed host cache can

The member 'accessed' of struct btree is used in bch_mca_scan() when
shrinking btree node caches. The original idea is, if b->accessed is
set, clean it and look at next btree node cache from c->btree_cache
list, and only shrink the caches whose b->accessed is cleaned. Then
only cold btree node cache will be shrunk.
But when I/O pressure is high, it is very probably that b->accessed
of a btree node cache will be set again in bch_btree_node_get()
before bch_mca_scan() selects it again. Then there is no chance for
bch_mca_scan() to shrink enough memory back to slub or slab system.
This patch removes member accessed from struct btree, then once a
btree node ache is selected, it will be immediately shunk. By this
change, bch_mca_scan() may release btree node cahce more efficiently.

the commit 91be66e131 ("bcache: performance improvement for
btree_flush_write()") was an effort to flushing btree node with oldest
btree node faster in following methods,
- Only iterate dirty btree nodes in c->btree_cache, avoid scanning a lot
of clean btree nodes.
- Take c->btree_cache as a LRU-like list, aggressively flushing all
dirty nodes from tail of c->btree_cache util the btree node with
oldest journal entry is flushed. This is to reduce the time of holding
c->bucket_lock.
Guoju Fang and Shuang Li reported that they observe unexptected extra
write I/Os on cache device after applying the above patch. Guoju Fang
provideed more detailed diagnose information that the aggressive
btree nodes flushing may cause 10x more btree nodes to flush in his
workload. He points out when system memory is large enough to hold all
btree nodes in memory, c->btree_cache is not a LRU-like list any more.
Then the btree node with oldest journal entry is very probably not-
close to the tail of c->btree_cache list. In such situation much more
dirty btree nodes will be aggressively flushed before the target node
is flushed. When slow SATA SSD is used as cache device, such over-
aggressive flushing behavior will cause performance regression.
After spending a lot of time on debug and diagnose, I find the real
condition is more complicated, aggressive flushing dirty btree nodes
from tail of c->btree_cache list is not a good solution.
- When all btree nodes are cached in memory, c->btree_cache is not
a LRU-like list, the btree nodes with oldest journal entry won't
be close to the tail of the list.
- There can be hundreds dirty btree nodes reference the oldest journal
entry, before flushing all the nodes the oldest journal entry cannot
be reclaimed.
When the above two conditions mixed together, a simply flushing from
tail of c->btree_cache list is really NOT a good idea.
Fortunately there is still chance to make btree_flush_write() work
better. Here is how this patch avoids unnecessary btree nodes flushing,
- Only acquire c->journal.lock when getting oldest journal entry of
fifo c->journal.pin. In rested locations check the journal entries
locklessly, so their values can be changed on other cores
in parallel.
- In loop list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(), checking latest front
point of fifo c->journal.pin. If it is different from the original
point which we get with locking c->journal.lock, it means the oldest
journal entry is reclaim on other cores. At this moment, all selected
dirty nodes recorded in array btree_nodes[] are all flushed and clean
on other CPU cores, it is unncessary to iterate c->btree_cache any
longer. Just quit the list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse() loop and
the following for-loop will skip all the selected clean nodes.
- Find a proper time to quit the list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse()
loop. Check the refcount value of orignial fifo front point, if the
value is larger than selected node number of btree_nodes[], it means
more matching btree nodes should be scanned. Otherwise it means no
more matching btee nodes in rest of c->btree_cache list, the loop
can be quit. If the original oldest journal entry is reclaimed and
fifo front point is updated, the refcount of original fifo front point
will be 0, then the loop will be quit too.
- Not hold c->bucket_lock too long time. c->bucket_lock is also required
for space allocation for cached data, hold it for too long time will
block regular I/O requests. When iterating list c->btree_cache, even
there are a lot of maching btree nodes, in order to not holding
c->bucket_lock for too long time, only BTREE_FLUSH_NR nodes are
selected and to flush in following for-loop.
With this patch, only btree nodes referencing oldest journal entry
are flushed to cache device, no aggressive flushing for unnecessary
btree node any more. And in order to avoid blocking regluar I/O
requests, each time when btree_flush_write() called, at most only
BTREE_FLUSH_NR btree nodes are selected to flush, even there are more
maching btree nodes in list c->btree_cache.
At last, one more thing to explain: Why it is safe to read front point
of c->journal.pin without holding c->journal.lock inside the
list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse() loop ?
Here is my answer: When reading the front point of fifo c->journal.pin,
we don't need to know the exact value of front point, we just want to
check whether the value is different from the original front point
(which is accurate value because we get it while c->jouranl.lock is
held). For such purpose, it works as expected without holding
c->journal.lock. Even the front point is changed on other CPU core and
not updated to local core, and current iterating btree node has
identical journal entry local as original fetched fifo front point, it
is still safe. Because after holding mutex b->write_lock (with memory
barrier) this btree node can be found as clean and skipped, the loop
will quite latter when iterate on next node of list c->btree_cache.

"Guoju Fang talked to me today, he told me this change was unnecessary

Then I realize fifo_idx() uses a mask to handle the array index overflow

In bch_mca_scan(), the number of shrinking btree node is calculated
by code like this,
unsigned long nr = sc->nr_to_scan;
nr /= c->btree_pages;
nr = min_t(unsigned long, nr, mca_can_free(c));
variable sc->nr_to_scan is number of objects (here is bcache B+tree
nodes' number) to shrink, and pointer variable sc is sent from memory
management code as parametr of a callback.
If sc->nr_to_scan is smaller than c->btree_pages, after the above
calculation, variable 'nr' will be 0 and nothing will be shrunk. It is
frequeently observed that only 1 or 2 is set to sc->nr_to_scan and make
nr to be zero. Then bch_mca_scan() will do nothing more then acquiring
and releasing mutex c->bucket_lock.
This patch checkes whether nr is 0 after the above calculation, if 0
is the result then set 1 to variable 'n'. Then at least bch_mca_scan()
will try to shrink a single B+tree node.

For writeback mode, if there is no regular I/O request for a while,
the writeback rate will be set to the maximum value (1TB/s for now).
This is good for most of the storage workload, but there are still
people don't what the maximum writeback rate in I/O idle time.
This patch adds a sysfs interface file idle_max_writeback_rate to
permit people to disable maximum writeback rate. Then the minimum
writeback rate can be advised by writeback_rate_minimum in the
bcache device's sysfs interface.

Fifo structure journal.pin is implemented by a cycle buffer, if the back
index reaches highest location of the cycle buffer, it will be swapped
to 0. Once the swapping happens, it means a smaller fifo index might be
associated to a newer journal entry. So the btree node with oldest
journal entry won't be selected in bch_btree_leaf_dirty() to reference
the dirty B+tree leaf node. This problem may cause bcache journal won't
protect unflushed oldest B+tree dirty leaf node in power failure, and
this B+tree leaf node is possible to beinconsistent after reboot from
power failure.
This patch fixes the fifo index comparing logic in journal_pin_cmp(),
to avoid potential corrupted B+tree leaf node when the back index of
journal pin is swapped.

The race was when a thread using closure_sync() notices cl->s->done == 1
before the thread calling closure_put() calls wake_up_process(). Then,
it's possible for that thread to return and exit just before
wake_up_process() is called - so we're trying to wake up a process that
no longer exists.
rcu_read_lock() is sufficient to protect against this, as there's an rcu
barrier somewhere in the process teardown path.

This patch improves performance for btree_flush_write() in following
ways,
- Use another spinlock journal.flush_write_lock to replace the very
hot journal.lock. We don't have to use journal.lock here, selecting
candidate btree nodes takes a lot of time, hold journal.lock here will
block other jouranling threads and drop the overall I/O performance.
- Only select flushing btree node from c->btree_cache list. When the
machine has a large system memory, mca cache may have a huge number of
cached btree nodes. Iterating all the cached nodes will take a lot
of CPU time, and most of the nodes on c->btree_cache_freeable and
c->btree_cache_freed lists are cleared and have need to flush. So only
travel mca list c->btree_cache to select flushing btree node should be
enough for most of the cases.
- Don't iterate whole c->btree_cache list, only reversely select first
BTREE_FLUSH_NR btree nodes to flush. Iterate all btree nodes from
c->btree_cache and select the oldest journal pin btree nodes consumes
huge number of CPU cycles if the list is huge (push and pop a node
into/out of a heap is expensive). The last several dirty btree nodes
on the tail of c->btree_cache list are earlest allocated and cached
btree nodes, they are relative to the oldest journal pin btree nodes.
Therefore only flushing BTREE_FLUSH_NR btree nodes from tail of
c->btree_cache probably includes the oldest journal pin btree nodes.
In my testing, the above change decreases 50%+ CPU consumption when
journal space is full. Some times IOPS drops to 0 for 5-8 seconds,
comparing blocking I/O for 120+ seconds in previous code, this is much
better. Maybe there is room to improve in future, but at this momment
the fix looks fine and performs well in my testing.

There is a race between mca_reap(), btree_node_free() and journal code
btree_flush_write(), which results very rare and strange deadlock or
panic and are very hard to reproduce.
Let me explain how the race happens. In btree_flush_write() one btree
node with oldest journal pin is selected, then it is flushed to cache
device, the select-and-flush is a two steps operation. Between these two
steps, there are something may happen inside the race window,
- The selected btree node was reaped by mca_reap() and allocated to
other requesters for other btree node.
- The slected btree node was selected, flushed and released by mca
shrink callback bch_mca_scan().
When btree_flush_write() tries to flush the selected btree node, firstly
b->write_lock is held by mutex_lock(). If the race happens and the
memory of selected btree node is allocated to other btree node, if that
btree node's write_lock is held already, a deadlock very probably
happens here. A worse case is the memory of the selected btree node is
released, then all references to this btree node (e.g. b->write_lock)
will trigger NULL pointer deference panic.
This race was introduced in commit cafe563591 ("bcache: A block layer
cache"), and enlarged by commit c4dc2497d5 ("bcache: fix high CPU
occupancy during journal"), which selected 128 btree nodes and flushed
them one-by-one in a quite long time period.
Such race is not easy to reproduce before. On a Lenovo SR650 server with
48 Xeon cores, and configure 1 NVMe SSD as cache device, a MD raid0
device assembled by 3 NVMe SSDs as backing device, this race can be
observed around every 10,000 times btree_flush_write() gets called. Both
deadlock and kernel panic all happened as aftermath of the race.
The idea of the fix is to add a btree flag BTREE_NODE_journal_flush. It
is set when selecting btree nodes, and cleared after btree nodes
flushed. Then when mca_reap() selects a btree node with this bit set,
this btree node will be skipped. Since mca_reap() only reaps btree node
without BTREE_NODE_journal_flush flag, such race is avoided.
Once corner case should be noticed, that is btree_node_free(). It might
be called in some error handling code path. For example the following
code piece from btree_split(),
2149 err_free2:
2150 bkey_put(b->c, &n2->key);
2151 btree_node_free(n2);
2152 rw_unlock(true, n2);
2153 err_free1:
2154 bkey_put(b->c, &n1->key);
2155 btree_node_free(n1);
2156 rw_unlock(true, n1);
At line 2151 and 2155, the btree node n2 and n1 are released without
mac_reap(), so BTREE_NODE_journal_flush also needs to be checked here.
If btree_node_free() is called directly in such error handling path,
and the selected btree node has BTREE_NODE_journal_flush bit set, just
delay for 1 us and retry again. In this case this btree node won't
be skipped, just retry until the BTREE_NODE_journal_flush bit cleared,
and free the btree node memory.

Indeed if btree_node_dirty(b) returns false, it means BTREE_NODE_dirty

When cache set starts, bch_btree_check() will check all bkeys on cache
device by calculating the checksum. This operation will consume a huge
number of system memory if there are a lot of data cached. Since bcache
uses its own mca cache to maintain all its read-in btree nodes, and only
releases the cache space when system memory manage code starts to shrink
caches. Then before memory manager code to call the mca cache shrinker
callback, bcache mca cache will compete memory resource with user space
application, which may have nagive effect to performance of user space
workloads (e.g. data base, or I/O service of distributed storage node).
This patch tries to call bcache mca shrinker routine to proactively
release mca cache memory, to decrease the memory pressure of system and
avoid negative effort of the overall system I/O performance.

[ 101.691318][ T401] bcache: bcache_device_free() bcache0 stopped
Here is how the above potential deadlock may happen in reboot/shutdown
code path,
1) bcache_reboot() is called firstly in the reboot/shutdown code path,
then in bcache_reboot(), bcache_device_stop() is called.
2) bcache_device_stop() sets BCACHE_DEV_CLOSING on d->falgs, then call
closure_queue(&d->cl) to invoke cached_dev_flush(). And in turn
cached_dev_flush() calls cached_dev_free() via closure_at()
3) In cached_dev_free(), after stopped writebach kthread
dc->writeback_thread, the kwork dc->writeback_write_wq is stopping by
destroy_workqueue().
4) Inside destroy_workqueue(), drain_workqueue() is called. Inside
drain_workqueue(), flush_workqueue() is called. Then wq->lockdep_map
is acquired by lock_map_acquire() in flush_workqueue(). After the
lock acquired the rest part of flush_workqueue() just wait for the
workqueue to complete.
5) Now we look back at writeback thread routine bch_writeback_thread(),
in the main while-loop, write_dirty() is called via continue_at() in
read_dirty_submit(), which is called via continue_at() in while-loop
level called function read_dirty(). Inside write_dirty() it may be
re-called on workqueeu dc->writeback_write_wq via continue_at().
It means when the writeback kthread is stopped in cached_dev_free()
there might be still one kworker queued on dc->writeback_write_wq
to execute write_dirty() again.
6) Now this kworker is scheduled on dc->writeback_write_wq to run by
process_one_work() (which is called by worker_thread()). Before
calling the kwork routine, wq->lockdep_map is acquired.
7) But wq->lockdep_map is acquired already in step 4), so a A-A lock
(lockdep terminology) scenario happens.
Indeed on multiple cores syatem, the above deadlock is very rare to
happen, just as the code comments in process_one_work() says,
2263 * AFAICT there is no possible deadlock scenario between the
2264 * flush_work() and complete() primitives (except for
single-threaded
2265 * workqueues), so hiding them isn't a problem.
But it is still good to fix such lockdep warning, even no one running
bcache on single core system.
The fix is simple. This patch solves the above potential deadlock by,
- Do not destroy workqueue dc->writeback_write_wq in cached_dev_free().
- Flush and destroy dc->writeback_write_wq in writebach kthread routine
bch_writeback_thread(), where after quit the thread main while-loop
and before cached_dev_put() is called.
By this fix, dc->writeback_write_wq will be stopped and destroy before
the writeback kthread stopped, so the chance for a A-A locking on
wq->lockdep_map is disappeared, such A-A deadlock won't happen
any more.

[ 3142.970358][ T2649] bcache: bcache_device_free() bcache0 stopped
Here is how the deadlock happens.
1) bcache_reboot() calls bcache_device_stop(), then inside
bcache_device_stop() BCACHE_DEV_CLOSING bit is set on d->flags.
Then closure_queue(&d->cl) is called to invoke cached_dev_flush().
2) In cached_dev_flush(), cached_dev_free() is called by continu_at().
3) In cached_dev_free(), when stopping the writeback kthread of the
cached device by kthread_stop(), dc->writeback_thread will be waken
up to quite the kthread while-loop, then cached_dev_put() is called
in bch_writeback_thread().
4) Calling cached_dev_put() in writeback kthread may drop dc->count to
0, then dc->detach kworker is scheduled, which is initialized as
cached_dev_detach_finish().
5) Inside cached_dev_detach_finish(), the last line of code is to call
closure_put(&dc->disk.cl), which drops the last reference counter of
closrure dc->disk.cl, then the callback cached_dev_flush() gets
called.
Now cached_dev_flush() is called for second time in the code path, the
first time is in step 2). And again bch_register_lock will be acquired
again, and a A-A lock (lockdep terminology) is happening.
The root cause of the above A-A lock is in cached_dev_free(), mutex
bch_register_lock is held before stopping writeback kthread and other
kworkers. Fortunately now we have variable 'bcache_is_reboot', which may
prevent device registration or unregistration during reboot/shutdown
time, so it is unncessary to hold bch_register_lock such early now.
This is how this patch fixes the reboot/shutdown time A-A lock issue:
After moving mutex_lock(&bch_register_lock) to a later location where
before atomic_read(&dc->running) in cached_dev_free(), such A-A lock
problem can be solved without any reboot time registration race.

Now there is variable bcache_is_reboot to prevent device register or
unregister during reboot, it is unncessary to still hold mutex lock
bch_register_lock before stopping writeback_rate_update kworker and
writeback kthread. And if the stopping kworker or kthread holding
bch_register_lock inside their routine (we used to have such problem
in writeback thread, thanks to Junhui Wang fixed it), it is very easy
to introduce deadlock during reboot/shutdown procedure.
Therefore in this patch, the location to acquire bch_register_lock is
moved to the location before calling calc_cached_dev_sectors(). Which
is later then original location in cached_dev_detach_finish().

It is quite frequently to observe deadlock in bcache_reboot() happens
and hang the system reboot process. The reason is, in bcache_reboot()
when calling bch_cache_set_stop() and bcache_device_stop() the mutex
bch_register_lock is held. But in the process to stop cache set and
bcache device, bch_register_lock will be acquired again. If this mutex
is held here, deadlock will happen inside the stopping process. The
aftermath of the deadlock is, whole system reboot gets hung.
The fix is to avoid holding bch_register_lock for the following loops
in bcache_reboot(),
list_for_each_entry_safe(c, tc, &bch_cache_sets, list)
bch_cache_set_stop(c);
list_for_each_entry_safe(dc, tdc, &uncached_devices, list)
bcache_device_stop(&dc->disk);
A module range variable 'bcache_is_reboot' is added, it sets to true
in bcache_reboot(). In register_bcache(), if bcache_is_reboot is checked
to be true, reject the registration by returning -EBUSY immediately.

If a bcache device is in dirty state and its cache set is not
registered, this bcache device will not appear in /dev/bcache<N>,
and there is no way to stop it or remove the bcache kernel module.
This is an as-designed behavior, but sometimes people has to reboot

The purpose of following code in bset_search_tree() is to avoid a branch
instruction,
994 if (likely(f->exponent != 127))
995 n = j * 2 + (((unsigned int)
996 (f->mantissa -
997 bfloat_mantissa(search, f))) >> 31);
998 else
999 n = (bkey_cmp(tree_to_bkey(t, j), search) > 0)
1000 ? j * 2
1001 : j * 2 + 1;
This piece of code is not very clear to understand, even when I tried to
add code comment for it, I made mistake. This patch removes the implict
bit operation and uses explicit branch to calculate next location in
binary tree search.

This patch adds more error message in bch_cached_dev_run() to indicate
the exact reason why an error value is returned. Please notice when
printing out the "is running already" message, pr_info() is used here,
because in this case also -EBUSY is returned, the bcache device can
continue to attach to the cache devince and run, so it won't be an
error level message in kernel message.

When too many I/O errors happen on cache set and CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE
bit is set, bch_journal() may continue to work because the journaling
bkey might be still in write set yet. The caller of bch_journal() may
believe the journal still work but the truth is in-memory journal write
set won't be written into cache device any more. This behavior may
introduce potential inconsistent metadata status.
This patch checks CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE bit at the head of bch_journal(),
if the bit is set, bch_journal() returns NULL immediately to notice
caller to know journal does not work.

If CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE of a cache set flag is set by too many I/O
errors, currently allocator routines can still continue allocate
space which may introduce inconsistent metadata state.
This patch checkes CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE bit in following allocator
routines,
- bch_bucket_alloc()
- __bch_bucket_alloc_set()
Once CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set on cache set, the allocator routines
may reject allocation request earlier to avoid potential inconsistent
metadata.

Function bch_btree_keys_init() initializes b->set[].size and
b->set[].data to zero. As the code comments indicates, these code indeed
is unncessary, because both struct btree_keys and struct bset_tree are
nested embedded into struct btree, when struct btree is filled with 0
bits by kzalloc() in mca_bucket_alloc(), b->set[].size and
b->set[].data are initialized to 0 (a.k.a NULL) already.
This patch removes the redundant code, and add comments in
bch_btree_keys_init() and mca_bucket_alloc() to explain why it's safe.

The arrays (of strings) that are passed to __sysfs_match_string() are
static, so use sysfs_match_string() which does an implicit ARRAY_SIZE()
over these arrays.
Functionally, this doesn't change anything.
The change is more cosmetic.
It only shrinks the static arrays by 1 byte each.

In function bset_search_tree(), when p >= t->size, t->tree[0] will be
prefetched by the following code piece,
974 unsigned int p = n << 4;
975
976 p &= ((int) (p - t->size)) >> 31;
977
978 prefetch(&t->tree[p]);
The purpose of the above code is to avoid a branch instruction, but
when p >= t->size, prefetch(&t->tree[0]) has no positive performance
contribution at all. This patch avoids the unncessary prefetch by only
calling prefetch() when p < t->size.

When backing device super block is written by bch_write_bdev_super(),

health status if the request failed.

When md raid device (e.g. raid456) is used as backing device, read-ahead
requests on a degrading and recovering md raid device might be failured
immediately by md raid code, but indeed this md raid array can still be
read or write for normal I/O requests. Therefore such failed read-ahead
request are not real hardware failure. Further more, after degrading and
recovering accomplished, read-ahead requests will be handled by md raid
array again.
For such condition, I/O failures of read-ahead requests don't indicate
real health status (because normal I/O still be served), they should not
be counted into I/O error counter dc->io_errors.
Since there is no simple way to detect whether the backing divice is a
md raid device, this patch simply ignores I/O failures for read-ahead
bios on backing device, to avoid bogus backing device failure on a
degrading md raid array.

When cache_set_flush() is called for too many I/O errors detected on
cache device and the cache set is retiring, inside the function it
doesn't make sense to flushing cached btree nodes from c->btree_cache
because CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set on c->flags already and all I/Os
onto cache device will be rejected.
This patch checks in cache_set_flush() that whether CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE
is set. If yes, then avoids to flush the cached btree nodes to reduce
more time and make cache set retiring more faster.

This reverts commit 6147305c73.
Although this patch helps the failed bcache device to stop faster when
too many I/O errors detected on corresponding cached device, setting
CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE bit to cache set c->flags was not a good idea. This
operation will disable all I/Os on cache set, which means other attached
bcache devices won't work neither.
Without this patch, the failed bcache device can also be stopped
eventually if internal I/O accomplished (e.g. writeback). Therefore here
I revert it.

When everything is OK in bch_journal_read(), finally the return value
is returned by,
return ret;
which assumes ret will be 0 here. This assumption is wrong when all
journal buckets as are full and filled with valid journal entries. In
such cache the last location referencess read_bucket() sets 'ret' to
1, which means new jset added into jset list. The jset list is list
'journal' in caller run_cache_set().
Return 1 to run_cache_set() means something wrong and the cache set
won't start, but indeed everything is OK.
This patch changes the line at end of bch_journal_read() to directly
return 0 since everything if verything is good. Then a bogus error
is fixed.

When gc is running, user space I/O processes may wait inside
bcache code, so no new I/O coming. Indeed this is not a real idle
time, maximum writeback rate should not be set in such situation.
Otherwise a faster writeback thread may compete locks with gc thread
and makes garbage collection slower, which results a longer I/O
freeze period.
This patch checks c->gc_mark_valid in set_at_max_writeback_rate(). If
c->gc_mark_valid is 0 (gc running), set_at_max_writeback_rate() returns
false, then update_writeback_rate() will not set writeback rate to
maximum value even c->idle_counter reaches an idle threshold.
Now writeback thread won't interfere gc thread performance.

When people set a writeback percent via sysfs file,
/sys/block/bcache<N>/bcache/writeback_percent
current code directly sets BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING to dc->disk.flags
and schedules kworker dc->writeback_rate_update.
If there is no cache set attached to, the writeback kernel thread is
not running indeed, running dc->writeback_rate_update does not make
sense and may cause NULL pointer deference when reference cache set
pointer inside update_writeback_rate().
This patch checks whether the cache set point (dc->disk.c) is NULL in
sysfs interface handler, and only set BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING and
schedule dc->writeback_rate_update when dc->disk.c is not NULL (it
means the cache device is attached to a cache set).
This problem might be introduced from initial bcache commit, but
commit 3fd47bfe55 ("bcache: stop dc->writeback_rate_update properly")
changes part of the original code piece, so I add 'Fixes: 3fd47bfe55b0'
to indicate from which commit this patch can be applied.

Recently people report bcache code compiled with gcc9 is broken, one of
the buggy behavior I observe is that two adjacent 4KB I/Os should merge
into one but they don't. Finally it turns out to be a stack corruption
caused by macro PRECEDING_KEY().
See how PRECEDING_KEY() is defined in bset.h,
437 #define PRECEDING_KEY(_k) \
438 ({ \
439 struct bkey *_ret = NULL; \
440 \
441 if (KEY_INODE(_k) || KEY_OFFSET(_k)) { \
442 _ret = &KEY(KEY_INODE(_k), KEY_OFFSET(_k), 0); \
443 \
444 if (!_ret->low) \
445 _ret->high--; \
446 _ret->low--; \
447 } \
448 \
449 _ret; \
450 })
At line 442, _ret points to address of a on-stack variable combined by
KEY(), the life range of this on-stack variable is in line 442-446,
once _ret is returned to bch_btree_insert_key(), the returned address
points to an invalid stack address and this address is overwritten in
the following called bch_btree_iter_init(). Then argument 'search' of
bch_btree_iter_init() points to some address inside stackframe of
bch_btree_iter_init(), exact address depends on how the compiler
allocates stack space. Now the stack is corrupted.
