Initialize peer_request with timestamp and proper empty list head. Add peer_request to list early, so debugfs can find this request and report it as "preparing", even if we sleep before we actually submit it.

To be able to present timing details in debugfs, we need to track preparation/submit times of peer requests. Track peer request flags early, before they are put on the epoch_entry lists. Waiting for activity log transactions may be a major latency factor. We want to be able to present the peer_request state accurately in debugfs, and what it is waiting for. Consistently mark/unmark peer requests with EE_CALL_AL_COMPLETE_IO. Set it only *after* calling drbd_al_begin_io(), clear it as soon as we call drbd_al_complete_io().

Background resynchronisation does some "side-stepping", or throttles itself, if it detects application IO activity, and the current resync rate estimate is above the configured "cmin-rate". What was not detected: if there is no application IO, because it blocks on activity log transactions. Introduce a new atomic_t ap_actlog_cnt, tracking such blocked requests, and count non-zero as application IO activity. This counter is exposed at proc_details level 2 and above. Also make sure to release the currently locked resync extent if we side-step due to such voluntary throttling.

A request that is to be shipped to the peer goes through a few stages: - queued - sent, waiting for ack - ack received, waiting for "barrier ack", which is re-order epoch being closed on the peer by acknowledging a "cache flush" equivalent on the lower level device. In the later two stages, depending on protocol, we may have already completed this request to the upper layers, so it won't be found anymore on device->pending_master_completion[] lists. Track the oldest request yet to be sent (req_next), the oldest not yet acknowledged (req_ack_pending) and the oldest "still waiting for something from the peer" (req_not_net_done), doing short list walks on the transfer log to find the next pending one whenever such a request makes progress. Now we have a fast way to look up the oldest requests, don't do a transfer log walk every time.

Adding requests to per-device fifo lists as soon as possible after allocating them leaves a simple list_first_entry_or_null() to find the oldest request, regardless what it is still waiting for.

drbd_destroy_device means to give up reference counts on the connection(s) reachable via the peer_device(s). It must not do that by iterating via device->resource->connections, resource and connections may have already been disassociated by drbd_free_resource, and we'd leak connection refs. Instead, iterate via device->peer_devices->connection. Signed-off-by: Philipp Reisner <philipp.reisner@linbit.com> Signed-off-by: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com>

The only user of drbd_md_flush was bm_rw(), and it is always followed by either a drbd_md_sync(), or an al_write_transaction(), which, if so configured, both end up submiting a FLUSH|FUA request anyways.

We sometimes do if (list_empty(&w.list)) drbd_queue_work(&q, &w.list); Removal (list_del_init) may happen outside all locks, after all pending work entries have been moved to an on-stack local work list. For not dynamically allocated, but embeded, work structs, we must avoid to re-add until it really was removed. Move that list_empty check inside the spin_lock(&q->q_lock) within the helper function, and change to list_empty_careful(). This may have been the reason for a list_add corruption inside drbd_queue_work(). Signed-off-by: Philipp Reisner <philipp.reisner@linbit.com> Signed-off-by: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com>

We try to limit the number of "in-flight" resync requests. One condition for that is the amount of requested data should not exceed half of what can be covered by our "max-buffers" setting. However we compared number of 4k pages with number of in-flight 512 Byte sectors, and this extra throttle triggered much earlier than intended.

If we lost a disk during the first resync after primary crash, we could have prematurely cleared the CRASHED_PRIMARY flag.

This patch replaces rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, 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) Signed-off-by: Monam Agarwal <monamagarwal123@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com>

In setups involving a DRBD-proxy and connections that experience a lot of buffer-bloat it might be necessary to set ping-timeout to an unusual high value. By default DRBD uses the same value to wait if a newly established TCP-connection is stable. Since the DRBD-proxy is usually located in the same data center such a long wait time may hinder DRBD's connect process. In such setups socket-check-timeout should be set to at least to the round trip time between DRBD and DRBD-proxy. I.e. in most cases to 1.

Before the patch 'drbd: Keep the listening socket open while trying to connect to the peer' the newly created socket inherited the receive timeout from the listen socket. The listen socket had a receive timeout of connect-intervall +- 30% random jitter. The real issue is that after the mentioned patch we had no timeout at all. Now use 4 times the ping-timeout.

Checksum based resync trades CPU cycles for network bandwidth, in situations where we expect much of the to-be-resynced blocks to be actually identical on both sides already. In a "network hickup" scenario, it won't help: all to-be-resynced blocks will typically be different. The use case is for the resync of *potentially* different blocks after crash recovery -- the crash recovery had marked larger areas (those covered by the activity log) as need-to-be-resynced, just in case. Most of those blocks will be identical. This option makes it possible to configure checksum based resync, but only actually use it for the first resync after primary crash.

During handshake, we compare backend sizes, and user set limits, and agree on what device size we are going to expose. We remember that last-agreed-size in our meta data. But if we come up diskless, we have to accept what the peer presents us with. We used to accept the peers maximum potential capacity (backend size), which is wrong, and could lead to IO errors due to access beyond end of device. Instead, we need to accept the peer's current size. Unless that is communicated as 0, in which case we accept the backend size, or the user set limit, if set.

We intentionally do not serialize /proc/drbd access with internal state changes or statistic updates. Because of that, cat /proc/drbd may race with resync just being finished, still see the sync state, and find information about number of blocks still to go, but then find the total number of blocks within this resync has just been reset to 0 when accessing it. This now produces bogus numbers in the resync speed estimates. Fix by accessing all relevant data only once, and fixing it up if "still to go" happens to be more than "total".

Get rid of dump_stack() debug statements. There is no point whatsoever in registering and unregistering a reboot notifier that doesn't do anything. The intention was to switch to an "emergency read-only" mode, so we won't have to resync the full activity log just because we had been Primary before the reboot. Once we have that implemented, we may re-introduce the reboot notifier. Signed-off-by: Philipp Reisner <philipp.reisner@linbit.com> Signed-off-by: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com>

The textual representation of resync extents in /proc/drbd presented with proc_details >= 3 was wrong, it used bitnumbers as bitmasks.

The last user was al_write_transaction, if called with "delegate", and the last user to call it with "delegate = true" was the receiver thread, which has no need to delegate, but can call it himself. Finally drop the delegate parameter, drop the extra w_al_write_transaction callback, and drop drbd_queue_work_front. Do not (yet) change dequeue_work_item to dequeue_work_batch, though.

The recent fix to put_ldev() (correct ordering of access to local_cnt and state.disk; memory barrier in __drbd_set_state) guarantees that the cleanup happens exactly once. However it does not yet guarantee that the cleanup happens from worker context, the last put_ldev() may still happen from atomic context, which must not happen: blkdev_put() may sleep. Fix this by scheduling the cleanup to the worker instead, using a couple more bits in device->flags and a new helper, drbd_device_post_work(). Generalized the "resync progress" work to cover these new work bits. Signed-off-by: Philipp Reisner <philipp.reisner@linbit.com> Signed-off-by: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com>
