Partitions that are not aligned to the blocksize of a device may cause
invalid I/O requests because the blocklayer cares only about alignment
within the partition when building requests on partitions.
device
|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|
partition offset 512byte
|-512-|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|
When reading/writing one 4k block of the partition this maps to
reading/writing with an offset of 512 byte of the device leading to
unaligned requests for the device which in turn may cause unexpected
behavior of the device driver.
For DASD devices we have to translate the block number into a cylinder,
head, record format. The unaligned requests lead to wrong calculation
and therefore to misdirected I/O. In a "good" case this leads to I/O
errors because the underlying hardware detects the wrong addressing.
In a worst case scenario this might destroy data on the device.
To prevent partitions that are not aligned to the physical blocksize
of a device check for the alignment in the blkpg_ioctl.

The WRITE_SAME commands are not present in the blk_default_cmd_filter
write_ok list, and thus are failed with -EPERM when the SG_IO ioctl()
is executed without CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability (e.g., unprivileged users).
[ sg_io() -> blk_fill_sghdr_rq() > blk_verify_command() -> -EPERM ]
The problem can be reproduced with the sg_write_same command
# sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda
#
# capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \
'sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda'
Write same: pass through os error: Operation not permitted
#
For comparison, the WRITE_VERIFY command does not observe this problem,
since it is in that list:
# capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \
'sg_write_verify --num 1 --ilen 512 --lba 0 /dev/sda'
#
So, this patch adds the WRITE_SAME commands to the list, in order
for the SG_IO ioctl to finish successfully:
# capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \
'sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda'
#
That case happens to be exercised by QEMU KVM guests with 'scsi-block' devices
(qemu "-device scsi-block" [1], libvirt "<disk type='block' device='lun'>" [2]),
which employs the SG_IO ioctl() and runs as an unprivileged user (libvirt-qemu).
In that scenario, when a filesystem (e.g., ext4) performs its zero-out calls,
which are translated to write-same calls in the guest kernel, and then into
SG_IO ioctls to the host kernel, SCSI I/O errors may be observed in the guest:
[...] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] tag#0 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE

Pull block IO fixes from Jens Axboe:
"A few fixes that I collected as post-merge.
I was going to wait a bit with sending this out, but the O_DIRECT fix
should really go in sooner rather than later"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
blk-mq: Fix failed allocation path when mapping queues
blk-mq: Avoid memory reclaim when remapping queues
block_dev: don't update file access position for sync direct IO
nvme/pci: Log PCI_STATUS when the controller dies
block_dev: don't test bdev->bd_contains when it is not stable
In blk_mq_map_swqueue, there is a memory optimization that frees the
tags of a queue that has gone unmapped. Later, if that hctx is remapped
after another topology change, the tags need to be reallocated.
If this allocation fails, a simple WARN_ON triggers, but the block layer
ends up with an active hctx without any corresponding set of tags.
Then, any income IO to that hctx can trigger an Oops.
I can reproduce it consistently by running IO, flipping CPUs on and off
and eventually injecting a memory allocation failure in that path.
In the fix below, if the system experiences a failed allocation of any
hctx's tags, we remap all the ctxs of that queue to the hctx_0, which
should always keep it's tags. There is a minor performance hit, since
our mapping just got worse after the error path, but this is
the simplest solution to handle this error path. The performance hit
will disappear after another successful remap.
I considered dropping the memory optimization all together, but it
seemed a bad trade-off to handle this very specific error case.
This should apply cleanly on top of Jens' for-next branch.
The Oops is the one below:

While stressing memory and IO at the same time we changed SMT settings,
we were able to consistently trigger deadlocks in the mm system, which
froze the entire machine.
I think that under memory stress conditions, the large allocations
performed by blk_mq_init_rq_map may trigger a reclaim, which stalls
waiting on the block layer remmaping completion, thus deadlocking the
system. The trace below was collected after the machine stalled,
waiting for the hotplug event completion.
The simplest fix for this is to make allocations in this path
non-reclaimable, with GFP_NOIO. With this patch, We couldn't hit the
issue anymore.
This should apply on top of Jens's for-next branch cleanly.
Changes since v1:
- Use GFP_NOIO instead of GFP_NOWAIT.

"I wish that was the case. We've pretty much agreed that we'll want to
implement it as a virtual PCIe root bridge, similar to Intels other
'innovation' VMD that we work around that way.
But Intel management has apparently decided that they don't want to
spend more cycles on this now that Lenovo has an optional BIOS that
doesn't force this broken mode anymore, and no one outside of Intel
has enough information to implement something like this.
So for now I guess this warning is it, until Intel reconsideres and
spends resources on fixing up the damage their Chipset people caused"

"This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous

The major parts of this pull request is:
- Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
private implementation instead of using the pig that is
fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.
- Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
writeback queue throttling code.
- Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.
- Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.
- Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
and Shaun.
- Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.
- Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From

We ran into a funky issue, where someone doing 256K buffered reads saw
128K requests at the device level. Turns out it is read-ahead capping
the request size, since we use 128K as the default setting. This
doesn't make a lot of sense - if someone is issuing 256K reads, they
should see 256K reads, regardless of the read-ahead setting, if the
underlying device can support a 256K read in a single command.
This patch introduces a bdi hint, io_pages. This is the soft max IO
size for the lower level, I've hooked it up to the bdev settings here.
Read-ahead is modified to issue the maximum of the user request size,
and the read-ahead max size, but capped to the max request size on the
device side. The latter is done to avoid reading ahead too much, if the
application asks for a huge read. With this patch, the kernel behaves
like the application expects.

Instead of allocating a single unused biovec for discard requests, send
them down without any payload. Instead we allow the driver to add a
"special" payload using a biovec embedded into struct request (unioned
over other fields never used while in the driver), and overloading
the number of segments for this case.
This has a couple of advantages:
- we don't have to allocate the bio_vec
- the amount of special casing for discard requests in the block
layer is significantly reduced
- using this same scheme for other request types is trivial,
which will be important for implementing the new WRITE_ZEROES
op on devices where it actually requires a payload (e.g. SCSI)
- we can get rid of playing games with the request length, as
we'll never touch it and completions will work just fine
- it will allow us to support ranged discard operations in the
future by merging non-contiguous discard bios into a single
request
- last but not least it removes a lot of code
This patch is the common base for my WIP series for ranges discards and to
remove discard_zeroes_data in favor of always using REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES,
so it would be good to get it in quickly.

Since commit e73c23ff73 ("block: add async variant of

EXT4-fs (dm-1): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 2368848 at
logical offset 0 with max blocks 1 with error 95
EXT4-fs (dm-1): This should not happen!! Data will be lost
Due to the following fallthrough introduced with
commit 2d253440b5 ("block: Define zoned block device operations"),
generic_make_request_checks() would accept a REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME bio only
if the block device supports "write same" *and* is a zoned one:
switch (bio_op(bio)) {
[...]
case REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME:
if (!bdev_write_same(bio->bi_bdev))
goto not_supported;
case REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT:
case REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET:
if (!bdev_is_zoned(bio->bi_bdev))
goto not_supported;
break;
[...]
}
Thus, although the bio setup as done by __blkdev_issue_write_same() from
commit e73c23ff73 ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout")
would succeed, its actual submission would not, resulting in the
EOPNOTSUPP == 95.
Fix this by removing the fallthrough which, due to the lack of an explicit
comment, seems to be unintended anyway.

Both blkdev_report_zones and blkdev_reset_zones can operate on a partition of
a zoned block device. However, the first and last zones reported for a
partition make sense only if the partition start sector and size are aligned
on the device zone size. The same applies for zone reset. Resetting the first
or the last zone of a partition straddling zones may impact neighboring
partitions. Finally, if a partition start sector is not at the beginning of a
sequential zone, it will be impossible to write to the first sectors of the
partition on a host-managed device.
Avoid all these problems and incoherencies by ignoring partitions that are not
zone aligned.
Note: Even with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled, bdev_is_zoned() will report the
correct disk zoning type (host-aware, host-managed or none) but
bdev_zone_size() will always return 0 for zoned block devices (i.e. the zone
size is unknown). So test this as a way to ensure that a zoned block device is
being handled as such. As a result, for a host-aware devices, unaligned zone
partitions will be accepted with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled. That is, the
disk will be treated as a regular block device (as it should). If zoned block
device support is enabled, only aligned partitions will be accepted.

This patch enables a hybrid polling mode. Instead of polling after IO

For example, if the IO is presumed to complete in 8 usecs from now, we
can sleep for 4 usecs, wake up, and then do our polling. This still puts
a sleep/wakeup cycle in the IO path, but instead of the wakeup happening
after the IO has completed, it'll happen before. With this hybrid

Enable throttling of buffered writeback to make it a lot
more smooth, and has way less impact on other system activity.
Background writeback should be, by definition, background
activity. The fact that we flush huge bundles of it at the time
means that it potentially has heavy impacts on foreground workloads,
which isn't ideal. We can't easily limit the sizes of writes that
we do, since that would impact file system layout in the presence
of delayed allocation. So just throttle back buffered writeback,
unless someone is waiting for it.
The algorithm for when to throttle takes its inspiration in the
CoDel networking scheduling algorithm. Like CoDel, blk-wb monitors
the minimum latencies of requests over a window of time. In that
window of time, if the minimum latency of any request exceeds a
given target, then a scale count is incremented and the queue depth
is shrunk. The next monitoring window is shrunk accordingly. Unlike
CoDel, if we hit a window that exhibits good behavior, then we
simply increment the scale count and re-calculate the limits for that
scale value. This prevents us from oscillating between a
close-to-ideal value and max all the time, instead remaining in the
windows where we get good behavior.
Unlike CoDel, blk-wb allows the scale count to to negative. This
happens if we primarily have writes going on. Unlike positive
scale counts, this doesn't change the size of the monitoring window.
When the heavy writers finish, blk-bw quickly snaps back to it's
stable state of a zero scale count.
The patch registers a sysfs entry, 'wb_lat_usec'. This sets the latency
target to me met. It defaults to 2 msec for non-rotational storage, and
75 msec for rotational storage. Setting this value to '0' disables
blk-wb. Generally, a user would not have to touch this setting.
We don't enable WBT on devices that are managed with CFQ, and have
a non-root block cgroup attached. If we have a proportional share setup
on this particular disk, then the wbt throttling will interfere with
that. We don't have a strong need for wbt for that case, since we will
rely on CFQ doing that for us.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
We can hook this up to the block layer, to help throttle buffered
writes.
wbt registers a few trace points that can be used to track what is
happening in the system:
wbt_lat: 259:0: latency 2446318
wbt_stat: 259:0: rmean=2446318, rmin=2446318, rmax=2446318, rsamples=1,
wmean=518866, wmin=15522, wmax=5330353, wsamples=57
wbt_step: 259:0: step down: step=1, window=72727272, background=8, normal=16, max=32
This shows a sync issue event (wbt_lat) that exceeded it's time. wbt_stat
dumps the current read/write stats for that window, and wbt_step shows a
step down event where we now scale back writes. Each trace includes the
device, 259:0 in this case.

For legacy block, we simply track them in the request queue. For

Add sysfs files to display the stats.
The feature is off by default, to avoid any extra overhead. In-kernel

Commit 0e87e58bf6 ("blk-mq: improve warning for running a queue on the

schedule a dead CPU and also update next_cpu to the next alive CPU in

workaround.
The following patch fixes this scenario by always scheduling the value
in hctx->next_cpu. This changes the moment when we round-robin the CPU
running the hctx, but it really doesn't matter, since it still executes

blk_mq_quiesce_queue() waits until ongoing .queue_rq() invocations

* blk_mq_quiesce_queue() first calls blk_mq_stop_hw_queues()
followed by synchronize_srcu() or synchronize_rcu(). The latter
call waits for .queue_rq() invocations that started before
blk_mq_quiesce_queue() was called.
* The blk_mq_hctx_stopped() calls that control whether or not
.queue_rq() will be called are called with the (S)RCU read lock
held. This is necessary to avoid race conditions against
blk_mq_quiesce_queue().

Since blk_mq_requeue_work() starts stopped queues and since
execution of this function can be scheduled after a queue has
been stopped it is not possible to stop queues without using
an additional state variable to track whether or not the queue
has been stopped. Hence modify blk_mq_requeue_work() such that it
does not start stopped queues. My conclusion after a review of
the blk_mq_stop_hw_queues() and blk_mq_{delay_,}kick_requeue_list()
callers is as follows:
* In the dm driver starting and stopping queues should only happen
if __dm_suspend() or __dm_resume() is called and not if the
requeue list is processed.
* In the SCSI core queue stopping and starting should only be
performed by the scsi_internal_device_block() and
scsi_internal_device_unblock() functions but not by any other
function. Although the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call in
scsi_queue_rq() may help to reduce CPU load if a LLD queue is
full, figuring out whether or not a queue should be restarted
when requeueing a command would require to introduce additional
locking in scsi_mq_requeue_cmd() to avoid a race with
scsi_internal_device_block(). Avoid this complexity by removing
the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call from scsi_queue_rq().
* In the NVMe core only the functions that call
blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues() explicitly should start stopped
queues.
* A blk_mq_start_stopped_hwqueues() call must be added in the
xen-blkfront driver in its blkif_recover() function.

Move the "hctx stopped" test and the insert request calls into
blk_mq_direct_issue_request(). Rename that function into
blk_mq_try_issue_directly() to reflect its new semantics. Pass
the hctx pointer to that function instead of looking it up a
second time. These changes avoid that code has to be duplicated
in the next patch.

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.
In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.
Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

Patch adds an association between iocontext ioprio and the ioprio of a
request. This is done to enable request based drivers the ability to
act on priority information stored in the request. An example being
ATA devices that support command priorities. If the ATA driver discovers
that the device supports command priorities and the request has valid
priority information indicating the request is high priority, then a high
priority command can be sent to the device. This should improve tail
latencies for high priority IO on any device that queues requests
internally and can make use of the priority information stored in the
request.
The ioprio of the request is set in blk_rq_set_prio which takes the
request and the ioc as arguments. If the ioc is valid in blk_rq_set_prio
then the iopriority of the request is set as the iopriority of the ioc.
In init_request_from_bio a check is made to see if the ioprio of the bio
is valid and if so then the request prio comes from the bio.

Add the zoned queue limit to indicate the zoning model of a block device.
Defined values are 0 (BLK_ZONED_NONE) for regular block devices,
1 (BLK_ZONED_HA) for host-aware zone block devices and 2 (BLK_ZONED_HM)
for host-managed zone block devices. The standards defined drive managed
model is not defined here since these block devices do not provide any
command for accessing zone information. Drive managed model devices will
be reported as BLK_ZONED_NONE.
The helper functions blk_queue_zoned_model and bdev_zoned_model return
the zoned limit and the functions blk_queue_is_zoned and bdev_is_zoned
return a boolean for callers to test if a block device is zoned.
The zoned attribute is also exported as a string to applications via

BLK_ZONED_HM as "host-managed".

Patch series "fallocate for block devices", v11.
This is a patchset to fix page cache coherency with BLKZEROOUT and
implement fallocate for block devices.
The first patch is a fix to the existing BLKZEROOUT ioctl to invalidate
the page cache if the zeroing command to the underlying device succeeds.
Without this patch we still have the pagecache coherence bug that's been
in the kernel forever.
The second patch changes the internal block device functions to reject
attempts to discard or zeroout that are not aligned to the logical block
size. Previously, we only checked that the start/len parameters were
512-byte aligned, which caused kernel BUG_ONs for unaligned IOs to 4k-LBA
devices.
The third patch creates an fallocate handler for block devices, wires up
the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE flag to zeroing-discard, and connects
FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE to write-same so that we can have a consistent
fallocate interface between files and block devices. It also allows the
combination of PUNCH_HOLE and NO_HIDE_STALE to invoke non-zeroing discard.
Test cases for the new block device fallocate are now in xfstests as
generic/349-351.
This patch (of 3):
Invalidate the page cache (as a regular O_DIRECT write would do) to avoid
returning stale cache contents at a later time.

The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and
variables. If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for
gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.
These specific functions have been selected because they are init
functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable
times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of
latent entropy.

Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:
- Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the
drivers do not have to keep custom lists.
- Convert custom lists to the new infrastructure. The block-mq custom
list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
tip over to more lines removed than added.
- Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.
- Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.
- Convert another batch of notifier users.
The relayfs changes which conflicted with the conversion have been
shipped to me by Andrew.
The remaining lot is targeted for 4.10 so that we finally can remove
the rest of the notifiers"

Unlocking a mutex twice is wrong. Hence modify blkcg_policy_register()
such that blkcg_pol_mutex is unlocked once if cpd == NULL. This patch
avoids that smatch reports the following error:
block/blk-cgroup.c:1378: blkcg_policy_register() error: double unlock 'mutex:&blkcg_pol_mutex'

While debugging timeouts happening in my application workload (ScyllaDB), I have
observed calls to open() taking a long time, ranging everywhere from 2 seconds -
the first ones that are enough to time out my application - to more than 30
seconds.
The problem seems to happen because XFS may block on pending metadata updates
under certain circumnstances, and that's confirmed with the following backtrace
taken by the offcputime tool (iovisor/bcc):

Inspecting my run with blktrace, I can see that the xfsaild kthread exhibit very
high "Dispatch wait" times, on the dozens of seconds range and consistent with
the open() times I have saw in that run.
Still from the blktrace output, we can after searching a bit, identify the
request that wasn't dispatched:
8,0 11 152 81.092472813 804 A WM 141698288 + 8 <- (8,1) 141696240
8,0 11 153 81.092472889 804 Q WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1]
8,0 11 154 81.092473207 804 G WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1]
8,0 11 206 81.092496118 804 I WM 141698288 + 8 ( 22911) [xfsaild/sda1]
<==== 'I' means Inserted (into the IO scheduler) ===================================>
8,0 0 289372 96.718761435 0 D WM 141698288 + 8 (15626265317) [swapper/0]
<==== Only 15s later the CFQ scheduler dispatches the request ======================>
As we can see above, in this particular example CFQ took 15 seconds to dispatch
this request. Going back to the full trace, we can see that the xfsaild queue
had plenty of opportunity to run, and it was selected as the active queue many
times. It would just always be preempted by something else (example):
8,0 1 0 81.117912979 0 m N cfq1618SN / insert_request
8,0 1 0 81.117913419 0 m N cfq1618SN / add_to_rr
8,0 1 0 81.117914044 0 m N cfq1618SN / preempt
8,0 1 0 81.117914398 0 m N cfq767A / slice expired t=1
8,0 1 0 81.117914755 0 m N cfq767A / resid=40
8,0 1 0 81.117915340 0 m N / served: vt=1948520448 min_vt=1948520448
8,0 1 0 81.117915858 0 m N cfq767A / sl_used=1 disp=0 charge=0 iops=1 sect=0
where cfq767 is the xfsaild queue and cfq1618 corresponds to one of the ScyllaDB
IO dispatchers.
The requests preempting the xfsaild queue are synchronous requests. That's a
characteristic of ScyllaDB workloads, as we only ever issue O_DIRECT requests.
While it can be argued that preempting ASYNC requests in favor of SYNC is part
of the CFQ logic, I don't believe that doing so for 15+ seconds is anyone's
goal.
Moreover, unless I am misunderstanding something, that breaks the expectation
set by the "fifo_expire_async" tunable, which in my system is set to the
default.
Looking at the code, it seems to me that the issue is that after we make
an async queue active, there is no guarantee that it will execute any request.
When the queue itself tests if it cfq_may_dispatch() it can bail if it sees SYNC
requests in flight. An incoming request from another queue can also preempt it
in such situation before we have the chance to execute anything (as seen in the
trace above).
This patch sets the must_dispatch flag if we notice that we have requests
that are already fifo_expired. This flag is always cleared after
cfq_dispatch_request() returns from cfq_dispatch_requests(), so it won't pin
the queue for subsequent requests (unless they are themselves expired)
Care is taken during preempt to still allow rt requests to preempt us
regardless.
Testing my workload with this patch applied produces much better results.
From the application side I see no timeouts, and the open() latency histogram
generated by systemtap looks much better, with the worst outlier at 131ms:
