Zhengyuan Liu f591df3cc6 md/raid6: fix algorithm choice under larger PAGE_SIZE
There are several algorithms available for raid6 to generate xor and syndrome
parity, including basic int1, int2 ... int32 and SIMD optimized implementation
like sse and neon.  To test and choose the best algorithms at the initial
stage, we need provide enough disk data to feed the algorithms. However, the
disk number we provided depends on page size and gfmul table, seeing bellow:

    const int disks = (65536/PAGE_SIZE) + 2;

So when come to 64K PAGE_SIZE, there is only one data disk plus 2 parity disk,
as a result the chosed algorithm is not reliable. For example, on my arm64
machine with 64K page enabled, it will choose intx32 as the best one, although
the NEON implementation is better.

This patch tries to fix the problem by defining a constant raid6 disk number to
supporting arbitrary page size.

Daniel Verkamp be85f93ae2 lib/raid6: add option to skip algo benchmarking
This is helpful for systems where fast startup time is important.
It is especially nice to avoid benchmarking RAID functions that are
never used (for example, BTRFS selects RAID6_PQ even if the parity RAID
mode is not in use).

This saves 250+ milliseconds of boot time on modern x86 and ARM systems
with a dozen or more available implementations.

The new option is defaulted to 'y' to match the previous behavior of
always benchmarking on init.

Daniel Verkamp 0437de4fa0 lib/raid6: sort algos in rough performance order
Sort the list of RAID6 algorithms in roughly decreasing order of
expected performance: newer instruction sets first (within each
architecture) and wider unrollings first.

This doesn't make any difference right now, since all functions are
benchmarked; a follow-up change will make use of this by optionally
choosing the first valid function rather than testing all of them.

The Itanium raid6_intx{16,32} entries are also moved down to be near the
other raid6_intx entries for clarity.

Matt Brown 751ba79cc5 lib/raid6/altivec: Add vpermxor implementation for raid6 Q syndrome
This patch uses the vpermxor instruction to optimise the raid6 Q
syndrome. This instruction was made available with POWER8, ISA version
2.07. It allows for both vperm and vxor instructions to be done in a
single instruction. This has been tested for correctness on a ppc64le
vm with a basic RAID6 setup containing 5 drives.

The performance benchmarks are from the raid6test in the
/lib/raid6/test directory. These results are from an IBM Firestone
machine with ppc64le architecture. The benchmark results show a 35%
speed increase over the best existing algorithm for powerpc (altivec).
The raid6test has also been run on a big-endian ppc64 vm to ensure it
also works for big-endian architectures.

Performance benchmarks:
  raid6: altivecx4 gen() 18773 MB/s
  raid6: altivecx8 gen() 19438 MB/s

  raid6: vpermxor4 gen() 25112 MB/s

Markus Stockhausen fe5cbc6e06 md/raid6 algorithms: delta syndrome functions
v3: s-o-b comment, explanation of performance and descision for
the start/stop implementation

Implementing rmw functionality for RAID6 requires optimized syndrome
calculation. Up to now we can only generate a complete syndrome. The
target P/Q pages are always overwritten. With this patch we provide
a framework for inplace P/Q modification. In the first place simply
fill those functions with NULL values.

xor_syndrome() has two additional parameters: start & stop. These
will indicate the first and last page that are changing during a
rmw run. That makes it possible to avoid several unneccessary loops
and speed up calculation. The caller needs to implement the following
logic to make the functions work.

1) xor_syndrome(disks, start, stop, ...): "Remove" all data of source
blocks inside P/Q between (and including) start and end.

2) modify any block with start <= block <= stop

3) xor_syndrome(disks, start, stop, ...): "Reinsert" all data of
source blocks into P/Q between (and including) start and end.

Pages between start and stop that won't be changed should be filled
with a pointer to the kernel zero page. The reasons for not taking NULL
pages are:

1) Algorithms cross the whole source data line by line. Thus avoid
additional branches.

2) Having a NULL page avoids calculating the XOR P parity but still
need calulation steps for the Q parity. Depending on the algorithm
unrolling that might be only a difference of 2 instructions per loop.

The benchmark numbers of the gen_syndrome() functions are displayed in
the kernel log. Do the same for the xor_syndrome() functions. This
will help to analyze performance problems and give an rough estimate
how well the algorithm works. The choice of the fastest algorithm will
still depend on the gen_syndrome() performance.

With the start/stop page implementation the speed can vary a lot in real
life. E.g. a change of page 0 & page 15 on a stripe will be harder to
compute than the case where page 0 & page 1 are XOR candidates. To be not
to enthusiatic about the expected speeds we will run a worse case test
that simulates a change on the upper half of the stripe. So we do:

1) calculation of P/Q for the upper pages

2) continuation of Q for the lower (empty) pages

Ken Steele ae77cbc1e7 RAID: add tilegx SIMD implementation of raid6
This change adds TILE-Gx SIMD instructions to the software raid
(md), modeling the Altivec implementation. This is only for Syndrome
generation; there is more that could be done to improve recovery,
as in the recent Intel SSE3 recovery implementation.

The code unrolls 8 times; this turns out to be the best on tilegx
hardware among the set 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16.  The code reads one
cache-line of data from each disk, stores P and Q then goes to the
next cache-line.

The test code in sys/linux/lib/raid6/test reports 2008 MB/s data
read rate for syndrome generation using 18 disks (16 data and 2
parity). It was 1512 MB/s before this SIMD optimizations. This is
running on 1 core with all the data in cache.

This is based on the paper The Mathematics of RAID-6.

Jim Kukunas 7056741fd9 lib/raid6: Add AVX2 optimized recovery functions
Optimize RAID6 recovery functions to take advantage of

Paul Gortmaker 056075c764 md: Add module.h to all files using it implicitly
A pending cleanup will mean that module.h won't be implicitly
everywhere anymore.  Make sure the modular drivers in md dir
are actually calling out for <module.h> explicitly in advance.
