* dm raid1: fix deadlock when suspending failed deviceTakahiro Yasui2010-03-061-18/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To prevent deadlock, bios in the hold list should be flushed before dm_rh_stop_recovery() is called in mirror_suspend(). The recovery can't start because there are pending bios and therefore dm_rh_stop_recovery deadlocks. When there are pending bios in the hold list, the recovery waits for the completion of the bios after recovery_count is acquired. The recovery_count is released when the recovery finished, however, the bios in the hold list are processed after dm_rh_stop_recovery() in mirror_presuspend(). dm_rh_stop_recovery() also acquires recovery_count, then deadlock occurs.

* dm raid1: always return error if all legs failMikulas Patocka2010-03-061-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If all mirror legs fail, always return an error instead of holding the bio, even if the handle_errors option was set. At present it is the responsibility of the driver underneath us to deal with retries, multipath etc. The patch adds the bio to the failures list instead of holding it directly. do_failures tests first if all legs failed and, if so, returns the bio with -EIO. If any leg is still alive and handle_errors is set, do_failures calls hold_bio.

* dm raid1: fail writes if errors are not handled and log failsMikulas Patocka2010-02-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the mirror log fails when the handle_errors option was not selected and there is no remaining valid mirror leg, writes return success even though they weren't actually written to any device. This patch completes them with EIO instead. This code path is taken: do_writes: bio_list_merge(&ms->failures, &sync); do_failures: if (!get_valid_mirror(ms)) (false) else if (errors_handled(ms)) (false) else bio_endio(bio, 0); The logic in do_failures is based on presuming that the write was already tried: if it succeeded at least on one leg (without handle_errors) it is reported as success.

* dm raid1: hold write bios when errors are handledMikulas Patocka2009-12-101-31/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hold all write bios when errors are handled. Previously the failures list was used only when handling errors with a userspace daemon such as dmeventd. Now, it is always used for all bios. The regions where some writes failed must be marked as nosync. This can only be done in process context (i.e. in raid1 workqueue), not in the write_callback function. Previously the write would succeed if writing to at least one leg succeeded. This is wrong because data from the failed leg may be replicated to the correct leg. Now, if using a userspace daemon, the write with some failures will be held until the daemon has done its job and reconfigured the array. If not using a daemon, the write still succeeds if at least one leg succeeds. This is bad, but it is consistent with current behavior.

* dm raid1: do not allow log_failure variable to unset after being setJonathan Brassow2009-09-041-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug which was triggering a case where the primary leg could not be changed on failure even when the mirror was in-sync. The case involves the failure of the primary device along with the transient failure of the log device. The problem is that bios can be put on the 'failures' list (due to log failure) before 'fail_mirror' is called due to the primary device failure. Normally, this is fine, but if the log device failure is transient, a subsequent iteration of the work thread, 'do_mirror', will reset 'log_failure'. The 'do_failures' function then resets the 'in_sync' variable when processing bios on the failures list. The 'in_sync' variable is what is used to determine if the primary device can be switched in the event of a failure. Since this has been reset, the primary device is incorrectly assumed to be not switchable. The case has been seen in the cluster mirror context, where one machine realizes the log device is dead before the other machines. As the responsibilities of the server migrate from one node to another (because the mirror is being reconfigured due to the failure), the new server may think for a moment that the log device is fine - thus resetting the 'log_failure' variable. In any case, it is inappropiate for us to reset the 'log_failure' variable. The above bug simply illustrates that it can actually hurt us.

* dm raid1: switch read_record from kmalloc to slab to save memoryMikulas Patocka2009-04-021-4/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With my previous patch to save bi_io_vec, the size of dm_raid1_read_record is significantly increased (the vector list takes 3072 bytes on 32-bit machines and 4096 bytes on 64-bit machines). The structure dm_raid1_read_record used to be allocated with kmalloc, but kmalloc aligns the size on the next power-of-two so an object slightly greater than 4096 will allocate 8192 bytes of memory and half of that memory will be wasted. This patch turns kmalloc into a slab cache which doesn't have this padding so it will reduce the memory consumed.

* dm raid1: kcopyd should stop on error if errors handledJonathan Brassow2008-10-101-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dm-raid1 is setting the 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag unconditionally when assigning kcopyd work. kcopyd is responsible for copying an assigned section of disk to one or more other disks. The 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag affects kcopyd in the following way: When not set: kcopyd will immediately stop the copy operation when an error is encountered. When set: kcopyd will try to proceed regardless of errors and try to continue copying any remaining amount. Since dm-raid1 tracks regions of the address space that are (or are not) in sync and it now has the ability to handle these errors, we can safely enable this optimization. This optimization is conditional on whether mirror error handling has been enabled. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
* dm: unplug queues in threadsMikulas Patocka2008-04-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove an avoidable 3ms delay on some dm-raid1 and kcopyd I/O. It is specified that any submitted bio without BIO_RW_SYNC flag may plug the queue (i.e. block the requests from being dispatched to the physical device). The queue is unplugged when the caller calls blk_unplug() function. Usually, the sequence is that someone calls submit_bh to submit IO on a buffer. The IO plugs the queue and waits (to be possibly joined with other adjacent bios). Then, when the caller calls wait_on_buffer(), it unplugs the queue and submits the IOs to the disk. This was happenning: When doing O_SYNC writes, function fsync_buffers_list() submits a list of bios to dm_raid1, the bios are added to dm_raid1 write queue and kmirrord is woken up. fsync_buffers_list() calls wait_on_buffer(). That unplugs the queue, but there are no bios on the device queue as they are still in the dm_raid1 queue. wait_on_buffer() starts waiting until the IO is finished. kmirrord is scheduled, kmirrord takes bios and submits them to the devices. The submitted bio plugs the harddisk queue but there is no one to unplug it. (The process that called wait_on_buffer() is already sleeping.) So there is a 3ms timeout, after which the queues on the harddisks are unplugged and requests are processed. This 3ms timeout meant that in certain workloads (e.g. O_SYNC, 8kb writes), dm-raid1 is 10 times slower than md raid1. Every time we submit something asynchronously via dm_io, we must unplug the queue actually to send the request to the device. This patch adds an unplug call to kmirrord - while processing requests, it keeps the queue plugged (so that adjacent bios can be merged); when it finishes processing all the bios, it unplugs the queue to submit the bios. It also fixes kcopyd which has the same potential problem. All kcopyd requests are submitted with BIO_RW_SYNC.

It also adds the ability to read from mirror devices that are not the primary if they are in-sync. There are essentially two read paths in mirroring; the direct path and the queued path. When a read request is mapped, if the region is 'in-sync' the direct path is taken; otherwise the queued path is taken. If the direct path is taken, we must record bio information so that if the read fails we can retry it. We then discover the status of a direct read through mirror_end_io. If the read has failed, we will mark the device from which the read was attempted as failed (so we don't try to read from it again), restore the bio and try again. If the queued path is taken, we discover the results of the read from 'read_callback'. If the device failed, we will mark the device as failed and attempt the read again if there is another device where this region is known to be 'in-sync'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the ability to requeue write I/O to core device-mapper when there is a log device failure. If a write to the log produces and error, the pending writes are put on the "failures" list. Since the log is marked as failed, they will stay on the failures list until a suspend happens. Suspends come in two phases, presuspend and postsuspend. We must make sure that all the writes on the failures list are requeued in the presuspend phase (a requirement of dm core). This means that recovery must be complete (because writes may be delayed behind it) and the failures list must be requeued before we return from presuspend. The mechanisms to ensure recovery is complete (or stopped) was already in place, but needed to be moved from postsuspend to presuspend. We rely on 'flush_workqueue' to ensure that the mirror thread is complete and therefore, has requeued all writes in the failures list. Because we are using flush_workqueue, we must ensure that no additional 'queue_work' calls will produce additional I/O that we need to requeue (because once we return from presuspend, we are unable to do anything about it). 'queue_work' is called in response to the following functions: - complete_resync_work = NA, recovery is stopped - rh_dec (mirror_end_io) = NA, only calls 'queue_work' if it is ready to recover the region (recovery is stopped) or it needs to clear the region in the log* **this doesn't get called while suspending** - rh_recovery_end = NA, recovery is stopped - rh_recovery_start = NA, recovery is stopped - write_callback = 1) Writes w/o failures simply call bio_endio -> mirror_end_io -> rh_dec (see rh_dec above) 2) Writes with failures are put on the failures list and queue_work is called** ** write_callbacks don't happen during suspend ** - do_failures = NA, 'queue_work' not called if suspending - add_mirror (initialization) = NA, only done on mirror creation - queue_bio = NA, 1) delayed I/O scheduled before flush_workqueue is called. 2) No more I/Os are being issued. 3) Re-attempted READs can still be handled. (Write completions are handled through rh_dec/ write_callback - mention above - and do not use queue_bio.)

* dm raid1: handle recovery failuresJonathan Brassow2008-02-081-3/+20
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the calls to 'fail_mirror' if an error occurs during mirror recovery (aka resynchronization). 'fail_mirror' is responsible for recording the type of error by mirror device and ensuring an event gets raised for the purpose of notifying userspace.

* dm raid1: handle write failuresJonathan Brassow2008-02-081-26/+224
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch gives mirror the ability to handle device failures during normal write operations. The 'write_callback' function is called when a write completes. If all the writes failed or succeeded, we report failure or success respectively. If some of the writes failed, we call fail_mirror; which increments the error count for the device, notes the type of error encountered (DM_RAID1_WRITE_ERROR), and selects a new primary (if necessary). Note that the primary device can never change while the mirror is not in-sync (IOW, while recovery is happening.) This means that the scenario where a failed write changes the primary and gives recovery_complete a chance to misread the primary never happens. The fact that the primary can change has necessitated the change to the default_mirror field. We need to protect against reading garbage while the primary changes. We then add the bio to a new list in the mirror set, 'failures'. For every bio in the 'failures' list, we call a new function, '__bio_mark_nosync', where we mark the region 'not-in-sync' in the log and properly set the region state as, RH_NOSYNC. Userspace must also be notified of the failure. This is done by 'raising an event' (dm_table_event()). If fail_mirror is called in process context the event can be raised right away. If in interrupt context, the event is deferred to the kmirrord thread - which raises the event if 'event_waiting' is set. Backwards compatibility is maintained by ignoring errors if the DM_FEATURES_HANDLE_ERRORS flag is not present.

* dm log: split suspendJonathan Brassow2007-10-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There are now two phases to a suspend in device-mapper - presuspend and postsuspend. This patch removes the single 'suspend' in the logging API and replaces it with 'presuspend' and 'postsuspend' functions to align it better with core device-mapper. A subsequent patch will make use of 'presuspend'. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
