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. Signed-off-by:

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 cafe5635 ("bcache: A block layer cache"), and enlarged by commit c4dc2497 ("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.

When accessing or modifying BTREE_NODE_dirty bit, it is not always necessary to acquire b->write_lock. In bch_btree_cache_free() and mca_reap() acquiring b->write_lock is necessary, and this patch adds comments to explain why mutex_lock(&b->write_lock) is necessary for checking or clearing BTREE_NODE_dirty bit there.

In bch_btree_cache_free() and btree_node_free(), BTREE_NODE_dirty is always set no matter btree node is dirty or not. The code looks like this, if (btree_node_dirty(b)) btree_complete_write(b, btree_current_write(b)); clear_bit(BTREE_NODE_dirty, &b->flags); Indeed if btree_node_dirty(b) returns false, it means BTREE_NODE_dirty bit is cleared, then it is unnecessary to clear the bit again. This patch only clears BTREE_NODE_dirty when btree_node_dirty(b) is true (the bit is set), to save a few CPU cycles. Signed-off-by:

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.

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.

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(). Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by: -

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 whole system to release or stop the pending backing device. This sysfs interface may remove such pending bcache devices when write anything into the sysfs file manually. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

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 6147305c. 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. Signed-off-by:

Then in following failure code path bch_cache_set_error(), when cache_set_flush() gets called, the code piece to stop c->gc_thread is broken, if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(c->gc_thread)) kthread_stop(c->gc_thread); And KASAN catches such NULL pointer deference problem, with the warning information: [ 561.207881] ================================================================== [ 561.207900] BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in kthread_stop+0x3b/0x440 [ 561.207904] Write of size 4 at addr 000000000000001c by task kworker/15:1/313 [ 561.207913] CPU: 15 PID: 313 Comm: kworker/15:1 Tainted: G W 5.0.0-vanilla+ #3 [ 561.207916] Hardware name: Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 -[7X05CTO1WW]-/-[7X05CTO1WW]-, BIOS -[IVE136T-2.10]- 03/22/2019 [ 561.207935] Workqueue: events cache_set_flush [bcache] [ 561.207940] Call Trace: [ 561.207948] dump_stack+0x9a/0xeb [ 561.207955] ? kthread_stop+0x3b/0x440 [ 561.207960] ? kthread_stop+0x3b/0x440 [ 561.207965] kasan_report+0x176/0x192 [ 561.207973] ? kthread_stop+0x3b/0x440 [ 561.207981] kthread_stop+0x3b/0x440 [ 561.207995] cache_set_flush+0xd4/0x6d0 [bcache] [ 561.208008] process_one_work+0x856/0x1620 [ 561.208015] ? find_held_lock+0x39/0x1d0 [ 561.208028] ? drain_workqueue+0x380/0x380 [ 561.208048] worker_thread+0x87/0xb80 [ 561.208058] ? __kthread_parkme+0xb6/0x180 [ 561.208067] ? process_one_work+0x1620/0x1620 [ 561.208072] kthread+0x326/0x3e0 [ 561.208079] ? kthread_create_worker_on_cpu+0xc0/0xc0 [ 561.208090] ret_from_fork+0x3a/0x50 [ 561.208110] ================================================================== [ 561.208113] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint [ 561.208115] irq event stamp: 11800231 [ 561.208126] hardirqs last enabled at (11800231): [<ffffffff83008538>] do_syscall_64+0x18/0x410 [ 561.208127] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000000000001c [ 561.208129] #PF error: [WRITE] [ 561.312253] hardirqs last disabled at (11800230): [<ffffffff830052ff>] trace_hardirqs_off_thunk+0x1a/0x1c [ 561.312259] softirqs last enabled at (11799832): [<ffffffff850005c7>] __do_softirq+0x5c7/0x8c3 [ 561.405975] PGD 0 P4D 0 [ 561.442494] softirqs last disabled at (11799821): [<ffffffff831add2c>] irq_exit+0x1ac/0x1e0 [ 561.791359] Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI [ 561.791362] CPU: 15 PID: 313 Comm: kworker/15:1 Tainted: G B W 5.0.0-vanilla+ #3 [ 561.791363] Hardware name: Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 -[7X05CTO1WW]-/-[7X05CTO1WW]-, BIOS -[IVE136T-2.10]- 03/22/2019 [ 561.791371] Workqueue: events cache_set_flush [bcache] [ 561.791374] RIP: 0010:kthread_stop+0x3b/0x440 [ 561.791376] Code: 00 00 65 8b 05 26 d5 e0 7c 89 c0 48 0f a3 05 ec aa df 02 0f 82 dc 02 00 00 4c 8d 63 20 be 04 00 00 00 4c 89 e7 e8 65 c5 53 00 <f0> ff 43 20 48 8d 7b 24 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 48 89 fa 48 [ 561.791377] RSP: 0018:ffff88872fc8fd10 EFLAGS: 00010286 [ 561.838895] bcache: bch_count_io_errors() nvme0n1: IO error on writing btree.

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. Signed-off-by:

Some debug code suggested by Paolo was tripping when I did reboot stress tests. Specifically in bfq_bfqq_resume_state() "bic->saved_wr_start_at_switch_to_srt" was later than the current value of "jiffies". A bit of debugging showed that "bic->saved_wr_start_at_switch_to_srt" was actually 0 and a bit more debugging showed that was because we had run through the "unlikely" case in the bfq_bfqq_save_state() function. Let's init "saved_wr_start_at_switch_to_srt" in the unlikely case to something sane. NOTE: this fixes no known real-world errors. Reviewed-by:
