md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine. Changelog: * removed ops_complete_biodrain in favor of ops_complete_postxor and ops_complete_write. * removed the raid5_run_ops workqueue * call bi_end_io for reads in ops_complete_biofill, saves a call to handle_stripe * explicitly handle the 2-disk raid5 case (xor becomes memcpy), Neil Brown * fix race between async engines and bi_end_io call for reads, Neil Brown * remove unnecessary spin_lock from ops_complete_biofill * remove test_and_set/test_and_clear BUG_ONs, Neil Brown * remove explicit interrupt handling for channel switching, this feature was absorbed (i.e. it is now implicit) by the async_tx api * use return_io in ops_complete_biofill Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Acked-By: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups.

md/raid5: disable 'DISCARD' by default due to safety concerns. It has come to my attention (thanks Martin) that 'discard_zeroes_data' is only a hint. Some devices in some cases don't do what it says on the label. The use of DISCARD in RAID5 depends on reads from discarded regions being predictably zero. If a write to a previously discarded region performs a read-modify-write cycle it assumes that the parity block was consistent with the data blocks. If all were zero, this would be the case. If some are and some aren't this would not be the case. This could lead to data corruption after a device failure when data needs to be reconstructed from the parity. As we cannot trust 'discard_zeroes_data', ignore it by default and so disallow DISCARD on all raid4/5/6 arrays. As many devices are trustworthy, and as there are benefits to using DISCARD, add a module parameter to over-ride this caution and cause DISCARD to work if discard_zeroes_data is set. If a site want to enable DISCARD on some arrays but not on others they should select DISCARD support at the filesystem level, and set the raid456 module parameter. raid456.devices_handle_discard_safely=Y As this is a data-safety issue, I believe this patch is suitable for -stable.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md/r5cache: write-out phase and reclaim support There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space. For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes. To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal. In current implementation, reclaim happens when: 1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds. 2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes, or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k) (r5c_check_cached_full_stripe) 3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage) 4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data) r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim. For stripe cache: When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached, or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes. For log space: To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case). Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as reclaim_required_space. Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of reclaim_required_space. r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint) should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list. When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md/r5cache: write-out phase and reclaim support There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space. For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes. To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal. In current implementation, reclaim happens when: 1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds. 2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes, or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k) (r5c_check_cached_full_stripe) 3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage) 4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data) r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim. For stripe cache: When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached, or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes. For log space: To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case). Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as reclaim_required_space. Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of reclaim_required_space. r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint) should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list. When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

md/r5cache: enable chunk_aligned_read with write back cache Chunk aligned read significantly reduces CPU usage of raid456. However, it is not safe to fully bypass the write back cache. This patch enables chunk aligned read with write back cache. For chunk aligned read, we track stripes in write back cache at a bigger granularity, "big_stripe". Each chunk may contain more than one stripe (for example, a 256kB chunk contains 64 4kB-page, so this chunk contain 64 stripes). For chunk_aligned_read, these stripes are grouped into one big_stripe, so we only need one lookup for the whole chunk. For each big_stripe, struct big_stripe_info tracks how many stripes of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. We count how many stripes of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. These counters are tracked in a radix tree (big_stripe_tree). r5c_tree_index() is used to calculate keys for the radix tree. chunk_aligned_read() calls r5c_big_stripe_cached() to look up big_stripe of each chunk in the tree. If this big_stripe is in the tree, chunk_aligned_read() aborts. This look up is protected by rcu_read_lock(). It is necessary to remember whether a stripe is counted in big_stripe_tree. Instead of adding new flag, we reuses existing flags: STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE. If either of these two flags are set, the stripe is counted in big_stripe_tree. This requires moving set_bit(STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE) to r5c_try_caching_write(); and moving clear_bit of STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE to r5c_finish_stripe_write_out().

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes.

And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

raid5: avoid release list until last reference of the stripe The (lockless) release_list reduces lock contention, but there is excessive queueing and dequeuing of stripes on this list. A stripe will currently be queued on the release_list with a stripe reference count > 1. This can cause the raid5 kernel thread(s) to dequeue the stripe and decrement the refcount without doing any other useful processing of the stripe. The are two cases when the stripe can be put on the release_list multiple times before it is actually handled by the kernel thread(s). 1) make_request() activates the stripe processing in 4k increments. When a write request is large enough to span multiple chunks of a stripe_head, the first 4k chunk adds the stripe to the plug list. The next 4k chunk that is processed for the same stripe puts the stripe on the release_list with a refcount=2. This can cause the kernel thread to process and decrement the stripe before the stripe us unplugged, which again will put it back on the release_list. 2) Whenever IO is scheduled on a stripe (pre-read and/or write), the stripe refcount is set to the number of active IO (for each chunk). The stripe is released as each IO complete, and can be queued and dequeued multiple times on the release_list, until its refcount finally reached zero. This simple patch will ensure a stripe is only queued on the release_list when its refcount=1 and is ready to be handled by the kernel thread(s). I added some instrumentation to raid5 and counted the number of times striped were queued on the release_list for a variety of write IO sizes. Without this patch the number of times stripes got queued on the release_list was 100-500% higher than with the patch. The excess queuing will increase with the IO size. The patch also improved throughput by 5-10%. Signed-off-by: Eivind Sarto <esarto@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.

hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

md/raid5: allow the stripe_cache to grow and shrink. The default setting of 256 stripe_heads is probably much too small for many configurations. So it is best to make it auto-configure. Shrinking the cache under memory pressure is easy. The only interesting part here is that we put a fairly high cost ('seeks') on shrinking the cache as the cost is greater than just having to read more data, it reduces parallelism. Growing the cache on demand needs to be done carefully. If we allow fast growth, that can upset memory balance as lots of dirty memory can quickly turn into lots of memory queued in the stripe_cache. It is important for the raid5 block device to appear congested to allow write-throttling to work. So we only add stripes slowly. We set a flag when an allocation fails because all stripes are in use, allocate at a convenient time when that flag is set, and don't allow it to be set again until at least one stripe_head has been released for re-use. This means that a spurt of requests will only cause one stripe_head to be allocated, but a steady stream of requests will slowly increase the cache size - until memory pressure puts it back again. It could take hours to reach a steady state. The value written to, and displayed in, stripe_cache_size is used as a minimum. The cache can grow above this and shrink back down to it. The actual size is not directly visible, though it can be deduced to some extent by watching stripe_cache_active. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/r5cache: write-out phase and reclaim support There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space. For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes. To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal. In current implementation, reclaim happens when: 1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds. 2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes, or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k) (r5c_check_cached_full_stripe) 3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage) 4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data) r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim. For stripe cache: When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached, or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes. For log space: To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case). Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as reclaim_required_space. Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of reclaim_required_space. r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint) should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list. When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on).

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine. Changelog: * removed ops_complete_biodrain in favor of ops_complete_postxor and ops_complete_write. * removed the raid5_run_ops workqueue * call bi_end_io for reads in ops_complete_biofill, saves a call to handle_stripe * explicitly handle the 2-disk raid5 case (xor becomes memcpy), Neil Brown * fix race between async engines and bi_end_io call for reads, Neil Brown * remove unnecessary spin_lock from ops_complete_biofill * remove test_and_set/test_and_clear BUG_ONs, Neil Brown * remove explicit interrupt handling for channel switching, this feature was absorbed (i.e. it is now implicit) by the async_tx api * use return_io in ops_complete_biofill Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Acked-By: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine. Changelog: * removed ops_complete_biodrain in favor of ops_complete_postxor and ops_complete_write. * removed the raid5_run_ops workqueue * call bi_end_io for reads in ops_complete_biofill, saves a call to handle_stripe * explicitly handle the 2-disk raid5 case (xor becomes memcpy), Neil Brown * fix race between async engines and bi_end_io call for reads, Neil Brown * remove unnecessary spin_lock from ops_complete_biofill * remove test_and_set/test_and_clear BUG_ONs, Neil Brown * remove explicit interrupt handling for channel switching, this feature was absorbed (i.e. it is now implicit) by the async_tx api * use return_io in ops_complete_biofill Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Acked-By: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine. Changelog: * removed ops_complete_biodrain in favor of ops_complete_postxor and ops_complete_write. * removed the raid5_run_ops workqueue * call bi_end_io for reads in ops_complete_biofill, saves a call to handle_stripe * explicitly handle the 2-disk raid5 case (xor becomes memcpy), Neil Brown * fix race between async engines and bi_end_io call for reads, Neil Brown * remove unnecessary spin_lock from ops_complete_biofill * remove test_and_set/test_and_clear BUG_ONs, Neil Brown * remove explicit interrupt handling for channel switching, this feature was absorbed (i.e. it is now implicit) by the async_tx api * use return_io in ops_complete_biofill Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Acked-By: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md/raid5: activate raid6 rmw feature Glue it altogehter. The raid6 rmw path should work the same as the already existing raid5 logic. So emulate the prexor handling/flags and split functions as needed. 1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer. 2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity. 3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync. 4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly. 5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

MD: raid5 trim support Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD.

MD: raid5 trim support Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

So emulate the prexor handling/flags and split functions as needed. 1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer. 2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity. 3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync. 4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly. 5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

MD: raid5 trim support Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/raid5: activate raid6 rmw feature Glue it altogehter. The raid6 rmw path should work the same as the already existing raid5 logic. So emulate the prexor handling/flags and split functions as needed. 1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer. 2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity. 3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync. 4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly. 5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations.

md: raid5_run_ops - run stripe operations outside sh->lock When the raid acceleration work was proposed, Neil laid out the following attack plan: 1/ move the xor and copy operations outside spin_lock(&sh->lock) 2/ find/implement an asynchronous offload api The raid5_run_ops routine uses the asynchronous offload api (async_tx) and the stripe_operations member of a stripe_head to carry out xor+copy operations asynchronously, outside the lock. To perform operations outside the lock a new set of state flags is needed to track new requests, in-flight requests, and completed requests. In this new model handle_stripe is tasked with scanning the stripe_head for work, updating the stripe_operations structure, and finally dropping the lock and calling raid5_run_ops for processing. The following flags outline the requests that handle_stripe can make of raid5_run_ops: STRIPE_OP_BIOFILL - copy data into request buffers to satisfy a read request STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK - generate a missing block in the cache from the other blocks STRIPE_OP_PREXOR - subtract existing data as part of the read-modify-write process STRIPE_OP_BIODRAIN - copy data out of request buffers to satisfy a write request STRIPE_OP_POSTXOR - recalculate parity for new data that has entered the cache STRIPE_OP_CHECK - verify that the parity is correct STRIPE_OP_IO - submit i/o to the member disks (note this was already performed outside the stripe lock, but it made sense to add it as an operation type The flow is: 1/ handle_stripe sets STRIPE_OP_* in sh->ops.pending 2/ raid5_run_ops reads sh->ops.pending, sets sh->ops.ack, and submits the operation to the async_tx api 3/ async_tx triggers the completion callback routine to set sh->ops.complete and release the stripe 4/ handle_stripe runs again to finish the operation and optionally submit new operations that were previously blocked Note this patch just defines raid5_run_ops, subsequent commits (one per major operation type) modify handle_stripe to take advantage of this routine. Changelog: * removed ops_complete_biodrain in favor of ops_complete_postxor and ops_complete_write. * removed the raid5_run_ops workqueue * call bi_end_io for reads in ops_complete_biofill, saves a call to handle_stripe * explicitly handle the 2-disk raid5 case (xor becomes memcpy), Neil Brown * fix race between async engines and bi_end_io call for reads, Neil Brown * remove unnecessary spin_lock from ops_complete_biofill * remove test_and_set/test_and_clear BUG_ONs, Neil Brown * remove explicit interrupt handling for channel switching, this feature was absorbed (i.e. it is now implicit) by the async_tx api * use return_io in ops_complete_biofill Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Acked-By: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/raid5: activate raid6 rmw feature Glue it altogehter. The raid6 rmw path should work the same as the already existing raid5 logic. So emulate the prexor handling/flags and split functions as needed. 1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer. 2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity. 3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync. 4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly. 5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

md/raid5: activate raid6 rmw feature Glue it altogehter. The raid6 rmw path should work the same as the already existing raid5 logic. So emulate the prexor handling/flags and split functions as needed. 1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer. 2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity. 3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync. 4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly. 5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/r5cache: write-out phase and reclaim support There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space. For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes. To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal. In current implementation, reclaim happens when: 1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds. 2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes, or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k) (r5c_check_cached_full_stripe) 3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage) 4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data) r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim. For stripe cache: When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached, or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes. For log space: To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case). Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as reclaim_required_space. Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of reclaim_required_space. r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint) should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list. When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

md/r5cache: write-out phase and reclaim support There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space. For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes. To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal. In current implementation, reclaim happens when: 1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds. 2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes, or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k) (r5c_check_cached_full_stripe) 3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage) 4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data) r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim. For stripe cache: When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached, or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes. For log space: To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case). Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as reclaim_required_space. Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of reclaim_required_space. r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint) should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list. When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem.

raid5-ppl: use resize_stripes() when enabling or disabling ppl Use resize_stripes() instead of raid5_reset_stripe_cache() to allocate or free sh->ppl_page at runtime for all stripes in the stripe cache. raid5_reset_stripe_cache() required suspending the mddev and could deadlock because of GFP_KERNEL allocations. Move the 'newsize' check to check_reshape() to allow reallocating the stripes with the same number of disks. Allocate sh->ppl_page in alloc_stripe() instead of grow_buffers(). Pass 'struct r5conf *conf' as a parameter to alloc_stripe() because it is needed to check whether to allocate ppl_page. Add free_stripe() and use it to free stripes rather than directly call kmem_cache_free(). Also free sh->ppl_page in free_stripe(). Set MD_HAS_PPL at the end of ppl_init_log() instead of explicitly setting it in advance and add another parameter to log_init() to allow calling ppl_init_log() without the bit set. Don't try to calculate partial parity or add a stripe to log if it does not have ppl_page set. Enabling ppl can now be performed without suspending the mddev, because the log won't be used until new stripes are allocated with ppl_page. Calling mddev_suspend/resume is still necessary when disabling ppl, because we want all stripes to finish before stopping the log, but resize_stripes() can be called after mddev_resume() when ppl is no longer active.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: make it easier to wait for bad blocks to be acknowledged. It is only safe to choose not to write to a bad block if that bad block is safely recorded in metadata - i.e. if it has been 'acknowledged'. If it hasn't we need to wait for the acknowledgement. We support that using rdev->blocked wait and md_wait_for_blocked_rdev by introducing a new device flag 'BlockedBadBlock'. This flag is only advisory. It is cleared whenever we acknowledge a bad block, so that a waiter can re-check the particular bad blocks that it is interested it. It should be set by a caller when they find they need to wait. This (set after test) is inherently racy, but as md_wait_for_blocked_rdev already has a timeout, losing the race will have minimal impact. When we clear "Blocked" was also clear "BlockedBadBlocks" incase it was set incorrectly (see above race). We also modify the way we manage 'Blocked' to fit better with the new handling of 'BlockedBadBlocks' and to make it consistent between externally managed and internally managed metadata. This requires that each raidXd loop checks if the metadata needs to be written and triggers a write (md_check_recovery) if needed. Otherwise a queued write request might cause raidXd to wait for the metadata to write, and only that thread can write it. Before writing metadata, we set FaultRecorded for all devices that are Faulty, then after writing the metadata we clear Blocked for any device for which the Fault was certainly Recorded. The 'faulty' device flag now appears in sysfs if the device is faulty *or* it has unacknowledged bad blocks. So user-space which does not understand bad blocks can continue to function correctly. User space which does, should not assume a device is faulty until it sees the 'faulty' flag, and then sees the list of unacknowledged bad blocks is empty. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

So emulate the prexor handling/flags and split functions as needed. 1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer. 2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity. 3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync. 4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly. 5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performance Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

raid5-ppl: use resize_stripes() when enabling or disabling ppl Use resize_stripes() instead of raid5_reset_stripe_cache() to allocate or free sh->ppl_page at runtime for all stripes in the stripe cache. raid5_reset_stripe_cache() required suspending the mddev and could deadlock because of GFP_KERNEL allocations. Move the 'newsize' check to check_reshape() to allow reallocating the stripes with the same number of disks. Allocate sh->ppl_page in alloc_stripe() instead of grow_buffers(). Pass 'struct r5conf *conf' as a parameter to alloc_stripe() because it is needed to check whether to allocate ppl_page. Add free_stripe() and use it to free stripes rather than directly call kmem_cache_free(). Also free sh->ppl_page in free_stripe(). Set MD_HAS_PPL at the end of ppl_init_log() instead of explicitly setting it in advance and add another parameter to log_init() to allow calling ppl_init_log() without the bit set. Don't try to calculate partial parity or add a stripe to log if it does not have ppl_page set. Enabling ppl can now be performed without suspending the mddev, because the log won't be used until new stripes are allocated with ppl_page. Calling mddev_suspend/resume is still necessary when disabling ppl, because we want all stripes to finish before stopping the log, but resize_stripes() can be called after mddev_resume() when ppl is no longer active.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

raid5: log reclaim support This is the reclaim support for raid5 log. A stripe write will have following steps: 1. reconstruct the stripe, read data/calculate parity. ops_run_io prepares to write data/parity to raid disks 2. hijack ops_run_io. stripe data/parity is appending to log disk 3. flush log disk cache 4. ops_run_io run again and do normal operation. stripe data/parity is written in raid array disks. raid core can return io to upper layer. 5. flush cache of all raid array disks 6. update super block 7. log disk space used by the stripe can be reused In practice, several stripes consist of an io_unit and we will batch several io_unit in different steps, but the whole process doesn't change. It's possible io return just after data/parity hit log disk, but then read IO will need read from log disk. For simplicity, IO return happens at step 4, where read IO can directly read from raid disks. Currently reclaim run if there is specific reclaimable space (1/4 disk size or 10G) or we are out of space. Reclaim is just to free log disk spaces, it doesn't impact data consistency. The size based force reclaim is to make sure log isn't too big, so recovery doesn't scan log too much. Recovery make sure raid disks and log disk have the same data of a stripe. If crash happens before 4, recovery might/might not recovery stripe's data/parity depending on if data/parity and its checksum matches. In either case, this doesn't change the syntax of an IO write. After step 3, stripe is guaranteed recoverable, because stripe's data/parity is persistent in log disk. In some cases, log disk content and raid disks content of a stripe are the same, but recovery will still copy log disk content to raid disks, this doesn't impact data consistency. space reuse happens after superblock update and cache flush. There is one situation we want to avoid. A broken meta in the middle of a log causes recovery can't find meta at the head of log. If operations require meta at the head persistent in log, we must make sure meta before it persistent in log too. The case is stripe data/parity is in log and we start write stripe to raid disks (before step 4). stripe data/parity must be persistent in log before we do the write to raid disks. The solution is we restrictly maintain io_unit list order. In this case, we only write stripes of an io_unit to raid disks till the io_unit is the first one whose data/parity is in log. The io_unit list order is important for other cases too. For example, some io_unit are reclaimable and others not. They can be mixed in the list, we shouldn't reuse space of an unreclaimable io_unit.

md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performance Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false. Benchmark data: System: 2x Xeon 5150, 4x SATA, mem=1GB Baseline: 2.6.24-rc7 Configuration: mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-e] -n 4 -l 5 --assume-clean Test1: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048 * patched: +33% (stripe_cache_size = 256), +25% (stripe_cache_size = 512) Test2: tiobench --size 2048 --numruns 5 --block 4096 --block 131072 (XFS) * patched: +13% * patched + preread_bypass_threshold = 0: +37% Changes since v1: * reduce bypass_threshold from (chunk_size / sectors_per_chunk) to (1) and make it configurable. This defaults to fairness and modest performance gains out of the box. Changes since v2: * [neilb@suse.de]: kill STRIPE_PRIO_HI and preread_needed as they are not necessary, the important change was clearing STRIPE_DELAYED in add_stripe_bio and this has been moved out to make_request for the hang fix. * [neilb@suse.de]: simplify get_priority_stripe * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: reset the bypass_count when ->hold_list is sampled empty (+11%) * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: decrement the bypass_count at the detection of stripes being naturally promoted off of hold_list +2%.

Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD.

md/raid5: ensure sync and DISCARD don't happen at the same time. A number of problems can occur due to races between resync/recovery and discard. - if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event before all of the individual discard requests have completed (so some devices are still locked, but not all). Since commit ca64cae96037de16e4af92678814f5d4bf0c1c65 md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished. this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device, so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared. This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up. - If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is one). So: - keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have completed their discard request - make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at the same time. This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up the discard at the appropriate time.

raid5: add basic stripe log This introduces a simple log for raid5. Data/parity writing to raid array first writes to the log, then write to raid array disks. If crash happens, we can recovery data from the log. This can speed up raid resync and fix write hole issue. The log structure is pretty simple. Data/meta data is stored in block unit, which is 4k generally. It has only one type of meta data block. The meta data block can track 3 types of data, stripe data, stripe parity and flush block. MD superblock will point to the last valid meta data block. Each meta data block has checksum/seq number, so recovery can scan the log correctly. We store a checksum of stripe data/parity to the metadata block, so meta data and stripe data/parity can be written to log disk together. otherwise, meta data write must wait till stripe data/parity is finished. For stripe data, meta data block will record stripe data sector and size. Currently the size is always 4k. This meta data record can be made simpler if we just fix write hole (eg, we can record data of a stripe's different disks together), but this format can be extended to support caching in the future, which must record data address/size. For stripe parity, meta data block will record stripe sector. It's size should be 4k (for raid5) or 8k (for raid6). We always store p parity first. This format should work for caching too. flush block indicates a stripe is in raid array disks. Fixing write hole doesn't need this type of meta data, it's for caching extension.

raid5: log reclaim support This is the reclaim support for raid5 log. A stripe write will have following steps: 1. reconstruct the stripe, read data/calculate parity. ops_run_io prepares to write data/parity to raid disks 2. hijack ops_run_io. stripe data/parity is appending to log disk 3. flush log disk cache 4. ops_run_io run again and do normal operation. stripe data/parity is written in raid array disks. raid core can return io to upper layer. 5. flush cache of all raid array disks 6. update super block 7. log disk space used by the stripe can be reused In practice, several stripes consist of an io_unit and we will batch several io_unit in different steps, but the whole process doesn't change. It's possible io return just after data/parity hit log disk, but then read IO will need read from log disk. For simplicity, IO return happens at step 4, where read IO can directly read from raid disks. Currently reclaim run if there is specific reclaimable space (1/4 disk size or 10G) or we are out of space. Reclaim is just to free log disk spaces, it doesn't impact data consistency. The size based force reclaim is to make sure log isn't too big, so recovery doesn't scan log too much. Recovery make sure raid disks and log disk have the same data of a stripe. If crash happens before 4, recovery might/might not recovery stripe's data/parity depending on if data/parity and its checksum matches. In either case, this doesn't change the syntax of an IO write. After step 3, stripe is guaranteed recoverable, because stripe's data/parity is persistent in log disk. In some cases, log disk content and raid disks content of a stripe are the same, but recovery will still copy log disk content to raid disks, this doesn't impact data consistency. space reuse happens after superblock update and cache flush. There is one situation we want to avoid. A broken meta in the middle of a log causes recovery can't find meta at the head of log. If operations require meta at the head persistent in log, we must make sure meta before it persistent in log too. The case is stripe data/parity is in log and we start write stripe to raid disks (before step 4). stripe data/parity must be persistent in log before we do the write to raid disks. The solution is we restrictly maintain io_unit list order. In this case, we only write stripes of an io_unit to raid disks till the io_unit is the first one whose data/parity is in log. The io_unit list order is important for other cases too. For example, some io_unit are reclaimable and others not. They can be mixed in the list, we shouldn't reuse space of an unreclaimable io_unit.

This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up. - If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is one). So: - keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have completed their discard request - make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at the same time. This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up the discard at the appropriate time. Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.7.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performance Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false. Benchmark data: System: 2x Xeon 5150, 4x SATA, mem=1GB Baseline: 2.6.24-rc7 Configuration: mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-e] -n 4 -l 5 --assume-clean Test1: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048 * patched: +33% (stripe_cache_size = 256), +25% (stripe_cache_size = 512) Test2: tiobench --size 2048 --numruns 5 --block 4096 --block 131072 (XFS) * patched: +13% * patched + preread_bypass_threshold = 0: +37% Changes since v1: * reduce bypass_threshold from (chunk_size / sectors_per_chunk) to (1) and make it configurable. This defaults to fairness and modest performance gains out of the box. Changes since v2: * [neilb@suse.de]: kill STRIPE_PRIO_HI and preread_needed as they are not necessary, the important change was clearing STRIPE_DELAYED in add_stripe_bio and this has been moved out to make_request for the hang fix. * [neilb@suse.de]: simplify get_priority_stripe * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: reset the bypass_count when ->hold_list is sampled empty (+11%) * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: decrement the bypass_count at the detection of stripes being naturally promoted off of hold_list +2%.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD.

md/r5cache: State machine for raid5-cache write back mode This patch adds state machine for raid5-cache. With log device, the raid456 array could operate in two different modes (r5c_journal_mode): - write-back (R5C_MODE_WRITE_BACK) - write-through (R5C_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH) Existing code of raid5-cache only has write-through mode. For write-back cache, it is necessary to extend the state machine. With write-back cache, every stripe could operate in two different phases: - caching - writing-out In caching phase, the stripe handles writes as: - write to journal - return IO In writing-out phase, the stripe behaviors as a stripe in write through mode R5C_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH. STRIPE_R5C_CACHING is added to sh->state to differentiate caching and writing-out phase. Please note: this is a "no-op" patch for raid5-cache write-through mode. The following detailed explanation is copied from the raid5-cache.c: /* * raid5 cache state machine * * With rhe RAID cache, each stripe works in two phases: * - caching phase * - writing-out phase * * These two phases are controlled by bit STRIPE_R5C_CACHING: * if STRIPE_R5C_CACHING == 0, the stripe is in writing-out phase * if STRIPE_R5C_CACHING == 1, the stripe is in caching phase * * When there is no journal, or the journal is in write-through mode, * the stripe is always in writing-out phase. * * For write-back journal, the stripe is sent to caching phase on write * (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying). r5c_make_stripe_write_out() kicks off * the write-out phase by clearing STRIPE_R5C_CACHING. * * Stripes in caching phase do not write the raid disks. Instead, all * writes are committed from the log device. Therefore, a stripe in * caching phase handles writes as: * - write to log device * - return IO * * Stripes in writing-out phase handle writes as: * - calculate parity * - write pending data and parity to journal * - write data and parity to raid disks * - return IO for pending writes */ Signed-off-by: Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com>

When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md/raid5: preserve STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE in break_stripe_batch_list break_stripe_batch_list breaks up a batch and copies some flags from the batch head to the members, preserving others. It doesn't preserve or copy STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE. This is not normally a problem as STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE is cleared when a stripe_head is added to a batch, and is not set on stripe_heads already in a batch. However there is no locking to ensure one thread doesn't set the flag after it has just been cleared in another. This does occasionally happen. md/raid5 maintains a count of the number of stripe_heads with STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE set: conf->preread_active_stripes. When break_stripe_batch_list clears STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE inadvertently this could becomes incorrect and will never again return to zero. md/raid5 delays the handling of some stripe_heads until preread_active_stripes becomes zero. So when the above mention race happens, those stripe_heads become blocked and never progress, resulting is write to the array handing. So: change break_stripe_batch_list to preserve STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE in the members of a batch.

md/raid5: ensure sync and DISCARD don't happen at the same time. A number of problems can occur due to races between resync/recovery and discard. - if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event before all of the individual discard requests have completed (so some devices are still locked, but not all). Since commit ca64cae96037de16e4af92678814f5d4bf0c1c65 md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished. this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device, so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared. This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up. - If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is one). So: - keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have completed their discard request - make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at the same time. This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up the discard at the appropriate time. Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.7.

md/raid5: fix interaction of 'replace' and 'recovery'. If a device in a RAID4/5/6 is being replaced while another is being recovered, then the writes to the replacement device currently don't happen, resulting in corruption when the replacement completes and the new drive takes over. This is because the replacement writes are only triggered when 's.replacing' is set and not when the similar 's.sync' is set (which is the case during resync and recovery - it means all devices need to be read). So schedule those writes when s.replacing is set as well. In this case we cannot use "STRIPE_INSYNC" to record that the replacement has happened as that is needed for recording that any parity calculation is complete. So introduce STRIPE_REPLACED to record if the replacement has happened. For safety we should also check that STRIPE_COMPUTE_RUN is not set. This has a similar effect to the "s.locked == 0" test. The latter ensure that now IO has been flagged but not started. The former checks if any parity calculation has been flagged by not started. We must wait for both of these to complete before triggering the 'replace'. Add a similar test to the subsequent check for "are we finished yet". This possibly isn't needed (is subsumed in the STRIPE_INSYNC test), but it makes it more obvious that the REPLACE will happen before we think we are finished. Finally if a NeedReplace device is not UPTODATE then that is an error. We really must trigger a warning. This bug was introduced in commit 9a3e1101b827a59ac9036a672f5fa8d5279d0fe2 (md/raid5: detect and handle replacements during recovery.) which introduced replacement for raid5.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active".

md/raid5: fix interaction of 'replace' and 'recovery'. If a device in a RAID4/5/6 is being replaced while another is being recovered, then the writes to the replacement device currently don't happen, resulting in corruption when the replacement completes and the new drive takes over. This is because the replacement writes are only triggered when 's.replacing' is set and not when the similar 's.sync' is set (which is the case during resync and recovery - it means all devices need to be read). So schedule those writes when s.replacing is set as well. In this case we cannot use "STRIPE_INSYNC" to record that the replacement has happened as that is needed for recording that any parity calculation is complete. So introduce STRIPE_REPLACED to record if the replacement has happened. For safety we should also check that STRIPE_COMPUTE_RUN is not set. This has a similar effect to the "s.locked == 0" test. The latter ensure that now IO has been flagged but not started. The former checks if any parity calculation has been flagged by not started. We must wait for both of these to complete before triggering the 'replace'. Add a similar test to the subsequent check for "are we finished yet". This possibly isn't needed (is subsumed in the STRIPE_INSYNC test), but it makes it more obvious that the REPLACE will happen before we think we are finished. Finally if a NeedReplace device is not UPTODATE then that is an error. We really must trigger a warning. This bug was introduced in commit 9a3e1101b827a59ac9036a672f5fa8d5279d0fe2 (md/raid5: detect and handle replacements during recovery.) which introduced replacement for raid5.

md/raid5: ensure sync and DISCARD don't happen at the same time. A number of problems can occur due to races between resync/recovery and discard. - if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event before all of the individual discard requests have completed (so some devices are still locked, but not all). Since commit ca64cae96037de16e4af92678814f5d4bf0c1c65 md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished. this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device, so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared. This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up. - If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is one). So: - keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have completed their discard request - make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at the same time. This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up the discard at the appropriate time. Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.7.

md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performance Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds. 2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes, or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k) (r5c_check_cached_full_stripe) 3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage) 4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data) r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim. For stripe cache: When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached, or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes. For log space: To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case). Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as reclaim_required_space. Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of reclaim_required_space. r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint) should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list. When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

[PATCH] md: allow reads that have bypassed the cache to be retried on failure If a bypass-the-cache read fails, we simply try again through the cache. If it fails again it will trigger normal recovery precedures. update 1: From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 1/ chunk_aligned_read and retry_aligned_read assume that data_disks == raid_disks - 1 which is not true for raid6. So when an aligned read request bypasses the cache, we can get the wrong data. 2/ The cloned bio is being used-after-free in raid5_align_endio (to test BIO_UPTODATE). 3/ We forgot to add rdev->data_offset when submitting a bio for aligned-read 4/ clone_bio calls blk_recount_segments and then we change bi_bdev, so we need to invalidate the segment counts. 5/ We don't de-reference the rdev when the read completes. This means we need to record the rdev to so it is still available in the end_io routine. Fortunately bi_next in the original bio is unused at this point so we can stuff it in there. 6/ We leak a cloned bio if the target rdev is not usable. From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> update 2: 1/ When aligned requests fail (read error) they need to be retried via the normal method (stripe cache). As we cannot be sure that we can process a single read in one go (we may not be able to allocate all the stripes needed) we store a bio-being-retried and a list of bioes-that-still-need-to-be-retried. When find a bio that needs to be retried, we should add it to the list, not to single-bio... 2/ We were never incrementing 'scnt' when resubmitting failed aligned requests.

[PATCH] md: allow reads that have bypassed the cache to be retried on failure If a bypass-the-cache read fails, we simply try again through the cache. If it fails again it will trigger normal recovery precedures. update 1: From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 1/ chunk_aligned_read and retry_aligned_read assume that data_disks == raid_disks - 1 which is not true for raid6. So when an aligned read request bypasses the cache, we can get the wrong data. 2/ The cloned bio is being used-after-free in raid5_align_endio (to test BIO_UPTODATE). 3/ We forgot to add rdev->data_offset when submitting a bio for aligned-read 4/ clone_bio calls blk_recount_segments and then we change bi_bdev, so we need to invalidate the segment counts. 5/ We don't de-reference the rdev when the read completes. This means we need to record the rdev to so it is still available in the end_io routine. Fortunately bi_next in the original bio is unused at this point so we can stuff it in there. 6/ We leak a cloned bio if the target rdev is not usable. From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> update 2: 1/ When aligned requests fail (read error) they need to be retried via the normal method (stripe cache). As we cannot be sure that we can process a single read in one go (we may not be able to allocate all the stripes needed) we store a bio-being-retried and a list of bioes-that-still-need-to-be-retried. When find a bio that needs to be retried, we should add it to the list, not to single-bio... 2/ We were never incrementing 'scnt' when resubmitting failed aligned requests.

md/r5cache: enable chunk_aligned_read with write back cache Chunk aligned read significantly reduces CPU usage of raid456. However, it is not safe to fully bypass the write back cache. This patch enables chunk aligned read with write back cache. For chunk aligned read, we track stripes in write back cache at a bigger granularity, "big_stripe". Each chunk may contain more than one stripe (for example, a 256kB chunk contains 64 4kB-page, so this chunk contain 64 stripes). For chunk_aligned_read, these stripes are grouped into one big_stripe, so we only need one lookup for the whole chunk. For each big_stripe, struct big_stripe_info tracks how many stripes of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. We count how many stripes of this big_stripe are in the write back cache. These counters are tracked in a radix tree (big_stripe_tree). r5c_tree_index() is used to calculate keys for the radix tree. chunk_aligned_read() calls r5c_big_stripe_cached() to look up big_stripe of each chunk in the tree. If this big_stripe is in the tree, chunk_aligned_read() aborts. This look up is protected by rcu_read_lock(). It is necessary to remember whether a stripe is counted in big_stripe_tree. Instead of adding new flag, we reuses existing flags: STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE. If either of these two flags are set, the stripe is counted in big_stripe_tree. This requires moving set_bit(STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE) to r5c_try_caching_write(); and moving clear_bit of STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE to r5c_finish_stripe_write_out().

[PATCH] md: allow reads that have bypassed the cache to be retried on failure If a bypass-the-cache read fails, we simply try again through the cache. If it fails again it will trigger normal recovery precedures. update 1: From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 1/ chunk_aligned_read and retry_aligned_read assume that data_disks == raid_disks - 1 which is not true for raid6. So when an aligned read request bypasses the cache, we can get the wrong data. 2/ The cloned bio is being used-after-free in raid5_align_endio (to test BIO_UPTODATE). 3/ We forgot to add rdev->data_offset when submitting a bio for aligned-read 4/ clone_bio calls blk_recount_segments and then we change bi_bdev, so we need to invalidate the segment counts. 5/ We don't de-reference the rdev when the read completes. This means we need to record the rdev to so it is still available in the end_io routine. Fortunately bi_next in the original bio is unused at this point so we can stuff it in there. 6/ We leak a cloned bio if the target rdev is not usable. From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> update 2: 1/ When aligned requests fail (read error) they need to be retried via the normal method (stripe cache). As we cannot be sure that we can process a single read in one go (we may not be able to allocate all the stripes needed) we store a bio-being-retried and a list of bioes-that-still-need-to-be-retried.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run.

To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

MD: raid5 trim support Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

MD: raid5 trim support Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

md/raid5: ensure sync and DISCARD don't happen at the same time. A number of problems can occur due to races between resync/recovery and discard. - if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event before all of the individual discard requests have completed (so some devices are still locked, but not all). Since commit ca64cae96037de16e4af92678814f5d4bf0c1c65 md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished. this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device, so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared. This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up. - If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is one). So: - keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have completed their discard request - make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at the same time. This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up the discard at the appropriate time. Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.7.

md/raid5: don't do chunk aligned read on degraded array. When array is degraded, read data landed on failed drives will result in reading rest of data in a stripe. So a single sequential read would result in same data being read twice. This patch is to avoid chunk aligned read for degraded array. The downside is to involve stripe cache which means associated CPU overhead and extra memory copy. Test Results: Following test are done on a enterprise storage node with Seagate 6T SAS drives and Xeon E5-2648L CPU (10 cores, 1.9Ghz), 10 disks MD RAID6 8+2, chunk size 128 KiB. I use FIO, using direct-io with various bs size, enough queue depth, tested sequential and 100% random read against 3 array config: 1) optimal, as baseline; 2) degraded; 3) degraded with this patch. Kernel version is 4.0-rc3. Each individual test I only did once so there might be some variations, but we just focus on big trend.

If you want to we can discuss specific data point in those data. But in general it seems with this patch, we have more predictable and in most cases significant better sequential read performance when array is degraded, and almost no noticeable impact on random read. Performance is a complicated thing, the patch works well for this particular configuration, but may not be universal. For example I imagine testing on all SSD array may have very different result. But I personally think in most cases IO bandwidth is more scarce resource than CPU. Signed-off-by: Eric Mei <eric.mei@seagate.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

MD: raid5 trim support Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

RAID5: batch adjacent full stripe write stripe cache is 4k size. Even adjacent full stripe writes are handled in 4k unit. Idealy we should use big size for adjacent full stripe writes. Bigger stripe cache size means less stripes runing in the state machine so can reduce cpu overhead. And also bigger size can cause bigger IO size dispatched to under layer disks. With below patch, we will automatically batch adjacent full stripe write together. Such stripes will be added to the batch list. Only the first stripe of the list will be put to handle_list and so run handle_stripe(). Some steps of handle_stripe() are extended to cover all stripes of the list, including ops_run_io, ops_run_biodrain and so on. With this patch, we have less stripes running in handle_stripe() and we send IO of whole stripe list together to increase IO size. Stripes added to a batch list have some limitations. A batch list can only include full stripe write and can't cross chunk boundary to make sure stripes have the same parity disks. Stripes in a batch list must be in the same state (no written, toread and so on). If a stripe is in a batch list, all new read/write to add_stripe_bio will be blocked to overlap conflict till the batch list is handled. The limitations will make sure stripes in a batch list be in exactly the same state in the life circly. I did test running 160k randwrite in a RAID5 array with 32k chunk size and 6 PCIe SSD. This patch improves around 30% performance and IO size to under layer disk is exactly 32k. I also run a 4k randwrite test in the same array to make sure the performance isn't changed with the patch.

md: update sync_completed and reshape_position even more often. There are circumstances when a user-space process might need to "oversee" a resync/reshape process. For example when doing an in-place reshape of a raid5, it is prudent to take a backup of each section before reshaping it as this is the only way to provide safety against an unplanned shutdown (i.e. crash/power failure). The sync_max sysfs value can be used to stop the resync from advancing beyond a particular point. So user-space can: suspend IO to the first section and back it up set 'sync_max' to the end of the section wait for 'sync_completed' to reach that point resume IO on the first section and move on to the next section. However this process requires the kernel and user-space to run in lock-step which could introduce unnecessary delays. It would be better if a 'double buffered' approach could be used with userspace and kernel space working on different sections with the 'next' section always ready when the 'current' section is finished. One problem with implementing this is that sync_completed is only guaranteed to be updated when the sync process reaches sync_max. (it is updated on a time basis at other times, but it is hard to rely on that). This defeats some of the double buffering. With this patch, sync_completed (and reshape_position) get updated as the current position approaches sync_max, so there is room for userspace to advance sync_max early without losing updates. To be precise, sync_completed is updated when the current sync position reaches half way between the current value of sync_completed and the value of sync_max. This will usually be a good time for user space to update sync_max. If sync_max does not get updated, the updates to sync_completed (together with associated metadata updates) will occur at an exponentially increasing frequency which will get unreasonably fast (one update every page) immediately before the process hits sync_max and stops. So the update rate will be unreasonably fast only for an insignificant period of time. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.

And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes.

[PATCH] md: allow reads that have bypassed the cache to be retried on failure If a bypass-the-cache read fails, we simply try again through the cache. If it fails again it will trigger normal recovery precedures. update 1: From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 1/ chunk_aligned_read and retry_aligned_read assume that data_disks == raid_disks - 1 which is not true for raid6. So when an aligned read request bypasses the cache, we can get the wrong data. 2/ The cloned bio is being used-after-free in raid5_align_endio (to test BIO_UPTODATE). 3/ We forgot to add rdev->data_offset when submitting a bio for aligned-read 4/ clone_bio calls blk_recount_segments and then we change bi_bdev, so we need to invalidate the segment counts. 5/ We don't de-reference the rdev when the read completes. This means we need to record the rdev to so it is still available in the end_io routine. Fortunately bi_next in the original bio is unused at this point so we can stuff it in there. 6/ We leak a cloned bio if the target rdev is not usable. From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> update 2: 1/ When aligned requests fail (read error) they need to be retried via the normal method (stripe cache). As we cannot be sure that we can process a single read in one go (we may not be able to allocate all the stripes needed) we store a bio-being-retried and a list of bioes-that-still-need-to-be-retried. When find a bio that needs to be retried, we should add it to the list, not to single-bio... 2/ We were never incrementing 'scnt' when resubmitting failed aligned requests.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.

Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.

[PATCH] md: allow reads that have bypassed the cache to be retried on failure If a bypass-the-cache read fails, we simply try again through the cache. If it fails again it will trigger normal recovery precedures. update 1: From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 1/ chunk_aligned_read and retry_aligned_read assume that data_disks == raid_disks - 1 which is not true for raid6. So when an aligned read request bypasses the cache, we can get the wrong data. 2/ The cloned bio is being used-after-free in raid5_align_endio (to test BIO_UPTODATE). 3/ We forgot to add rdev->data_offset when submitting a bio for aligned-read 4/ clone_bio calls blk_recount_segments and then we change bi_bdev, so we need to invalidate the segment counts. 5/ We don't de-reference the rdev when the read completes. This means we need to record the rdev to so it is still available in the end_io routine. Fortunately bi_next in the original bio is unused at this point so we can stuff it in there. 6/ We leak a cloned bio if the target rdev is not usable. From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> update 2: 1/ When aligned requests fail (read error) they need to be retried via the normal method (stripe cache). As we cannot be sure that we can process a single read in one go (we may not be able to allocate all the stripes needed) we store a bio-being-retried and a list of bioes-that-still-need-to-be-retried. When find a bio that needs to be retried, we should add it to the list, not to single-bio... 2/ We were never incrementing 'scnt' when resubmitting failed aligned requests.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

md/raid5: allow the stripe_cache to grow and shrink. The default setting of 256 stripe_heads is probably much too small for many configurations. So it is best to make it auto-configure. Shrinking the cache under memory pressure is easy. The only interesting part here is that we put a fairly high cost ('seeks') on shrinking the cache as the cost is greater than just having to read more data, it reduces parallelism. Growing the cache on demand needs to be done carefully. If we allow fast growth, that can upset memory balance as lots of dirty memory can quickly turn into lots of memory queued in the stripe_cache. It is important for the raid5 block device to appear congested to allow write-throttling to work. So we only add stripes slowly. We set a flag when an allocation fails because all stripes are in use, allocate at a convenient time when that flag is set, and don't allow it to be set again until at least one stripe_head has been released for re-use. This means that a spurt of requests will only cause one stripe_head to be allocated, but a steady stream of requests will slowly increase the cache size - until memory pressure puts it back again. It could take hours to reach a steady state. The value written to, and displayed in, stripe_cache_size is used as a minimum. The cache can grow above this and shrink back down to it. The actual size is not directly visible, though it can be deduced to some extent by watching stripe_cache_active. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md: make it easier to wait for bad blocks to be acknowledged. It is only safe to choose not to write to a bad block if that bad block is safely recorded in metadata - i.e. if it has been 'acknowledged'. If it hasn't we need to wait for the acknowledgement. We support that using rdev->blocked wait and md_wait_for_blocked_rdev by introducing a new device flag 'BlockedBadBlock'. This flag is only advisory. It is cleared whenever we acknowledge a bad block, so that a waiter can re-check the particular bad blocks that it is interested it. It should be set by a caller when they find they need to wait. This (set after test) is inherently racy, but as md_wait_for_blocked_rdev already has a timeout, losing the race will have minimal impact. When we clear "Blocked" was also clear "BlockedBadBlocks" incase it was set incorrectly (see above race). We also modify the way we manage 'Blocked' to fit better with the new handling of 'BlockedBadBlocks' and to make it consistent between externally managed and internally managed metadata. This requires that each raidXd loop checks if the metadata needs to be written and triggers a write (md_check_recovery) if needed. Otherwise a queued write request might cause raidXd to wait for the metadata to write, and only that thread can write it. Before writing metadata, we set FaultRecorded for all devices that are Faulty, then after writing the metadata we clear Blocked for any device for which the Fault was certainly Recorded. The 'faulty' device flag now appears in sysfs if the device is faulty *or* it has unacknowledged bad blocks. So user-space which does not understand bad blocks can continue to function correctly. User space which does, should not assume a device is faulty until it sees the 'faulty' flag, and then sees the list of unacknowledged bad blocks is empty. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

raid5: log reclaim support This is the reclaim support for raid5 log. A stripe write will have following steps: 1. reconstruct the stripe, read data/calculate parity. ops_run_io prepares to write data/parity to raid disks 2. hijack ops_run_io. stripe data/parity is appending to log disk 3. flush log disk cache 4. ops_run_io run again and do normal operation. stripe data/parity is written in raid array disks. raid core can return io to upper layer. 5. flush cache of all raid array disks 6. update super block 7. log disk space used by the stripe can be reused In practice, several stripes consist of an io_unit and we will batch several io_unit in different steps, but the whole process doesn't change. It's possible io return just after data/parity hit log disk, but then read IO will need read from log disk. For simplicity, IO return happens at step 4, where read IO can directly read from raid disks. Currently reclaim run if there is specific reclaimable space (1/4 disk size or 10G) or we are out of space. Reclaim is just to free log disk spaces, it doesn't impact data consistency. The size based force reclaim is to make sure log isn't too big, so recovery doesn't scan log too much. Recovery make sure raid disks and log disk have the same data of a stripe. If crash happens before 4, recovery might/might not recovery stripe's data/parity depending on if data/parity and its checksum matches. In either case, this doesn't change the syntax of an IO write. After step 3, stripe is guaranteed recoverable, because stripe's data/parity is persistent in log disk. In some cases, log disk content and raid disks content of a stripe are the same, but recovery will still copy log disk content to raid disks, this doesn't impact data consistency. space reuse happens after superblock update and cache flush. There is one situation we want to avoid. A broken meta in the middle of a log causes recovery can't find meta at the head of log. If operations require meta at the head persistent in log, we must make sure meta before it persistent in log too. The case is stripe data/parity is in log and we start write stripe to raid disks (before step 4). stripe data/parity must be persistent in log before we do the write to raid disks. The solution is we restrictly maintain io_unit list order. In this case, we only write stripes of an io_unit to raid disks till the io_unit is the first one whose data/parity is in log. The io_unit list order is important for other cases too. For example, some io_unit are reclaimable and others not. They can be mixed in the list, we shouldn't reuse space of an unreclaimable io_unit.

md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performance Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false.

md/raid5: allow the stripe_cache to grow and shrink. The default setting of 256 stripe_heads is probably much too small for many configurations. So it is best to make it auto-configure. Shrinking the cache under memory pressure is easy. The only interesting part here is that we put a fairly high cost ('seeks') on shrinking the cache as the cost is greater than just having to read more data, it reduces parallelism. Growing the cache on demand needs to be done carefully. If we allow fast growth, that can upset memory balance as lots of dirty memory can quickly turn into lots of memory queued in the stripe_cache. It is important for the raid5 block device to appear congested to allow write-throttling to work. So we only add stripes slowly. We set a flag when an allocation fails because all stripes are in use, allocate at a convenient time when that flag is set, and don't allow it to be set again until at least one stripe_head has been released for re-use. This means that a spurt of requests will only cause one stripe_head to be allocated, but a steady stream of requests will slowly increase the cache size - until memory pressure puts it back again. It could take hours to reach a steady state. The value written to, and displayed in, stripe_cache_size is used as a minimum. The cache can grow above this and shrink back down to it. The actual size is not directly visible, though it can be deduced to some extent by watching stripe_cache_active. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performance Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer.

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

md/raid5: allow the stripe_cache to grow and shrink. The default setting of 256 stripe_heads is probably much too small for many configurations. So it is best to make it auto-configure. Shrinking the cache under memory pressure is easy. The only interesting part here is that we put a fairly high cost ('seeks') on shrinking the cache as the cost is greater than just having to read more data, it reduces parallelism. Growing the cache on demand needs to be done carefully. If we allow fast growth, that can upset memory balance as lots of dirty memory can quickly turn into lots of memory queued in the stripe_cache. It is important for the raid5 block device to appear congested to allow write-throttling to work. So we only add stripes slowly. We set a flag when an allocation fails because all stripes are in use, allocate at a convenient time when that flag is set, and don't allow it to be set again until at least one stripe_head has been released for re-use. This means that a spurt of requests will only cause one stripe_head to be allocated, but a steady stream of requests will slowly increase the cache size - until memory pressure puts it back again. It could take hours to reach a steady state. The value written to, and displayed in, stripe_cache_size is used as a minimum. The cache can grow above this and shrink back down to it. The actual size is not directly visible, though it can be deduced to some extent by watching stripe_cache_active. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

raid5: offload stripe handle to workqueue This is another attempt to create multiple threads to handle raid5 stripes. This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it. Then the prexor calculation subtracts ->orig_page from the parity block, and the reconstruct calculation adds the ->page data back into the parity block. r5cache naturally excludes SkipCopy. When the array has write back cache, async_copy_data() will not skip copy. There are some known limitations of the cache implementation: 1. Write cache only covers full page writes (R5_OVERWRITE). Writes of smaller granularity are write through. 2. Only one log io (sh->log_io) for each stripe at anytime. Later writes for the same stripe have to wait. This can be improved by moving log_io to r5dev. 3. With writeback cache, read path must enter state machine, which is a significant bottleneck for some workloads. 4. There is no per stripe checkpoint (with r5l_payload_flush) in the log, so recovery code has to replay more than necessary data (sometimes all the log from last_checkpoint). This reduces availability of the array.

md/r5cache: caching phase of r5cache As described in previous patch, write back cache operates in two phases: caching and writing-out. The caching phase works as: 1. write data to journal (r5c_handle_stripe_dirtying, r5c_cache_data) 2. call bio_endio (r5c_handle_data_cached, r5c_return_dev_pending_writes). Then the writing-out phase is as: 1. Mark the stripe as write-out (r5c_make_stripe_write_out) 2. Calcualte parity (reconstruct or RMW) 3. Write parity (and maybe some other data) to journal device 4. Write data and parity to RAID disks This patch implements caching phase. The cache is integrated with stripe cache of raid456. It leverages code of r5l_log to write data to journal device. Writing-out phase of the cache is implemented in the next patch. With r5cache, write operation does not wait for parity calculation and write out, so the write latency is lower (1 write to journal device vs. read and then write to raid disks). Also, r5cache will reduce RAID overhead (multipile IO due to read-modify-write of parity) and provide more opportunities of full stripe writes. This patch adds 2 flags to stripe_head.state: - STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE, - STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE, Instead of inactive_list, stripes with cached data are tracked in r5conf->r5c_full_stripe_list and r5conf->r5c_partial_stripe_list. STRIPE_R5C_FULL_STRIPE and STRIPE_R5C_PARTIAL_STRIPE are flags for stripes in these lists. Note: stripes in r5c_full/partial_stripe_list are not considered as "active". For RMW, the code allocates an extra page for each data block being updated. This is stored in r5dev->orig_page and the old data is read into it.

md/raid5: allow the stripe_cache to grow and shrink. The default setting of 256 stripe_heads is probably much too small for many configurations. So it is best to make it auto-configure. Shrinking the cache under memory pressure is easy. The only interesting part here is that we put a fairly high cost ('seeks') on shrinking the cache as the cost is greater than just having to read more data, it reduces parallelism. Growing the cache on demand needs to be done carefully. If we allow fast growth, that can upset memory balance as lots of dirty memory can quickly turn into lots of memory queued in the stripe_cache. It is important for the raid5 block device to appear congested to allow write-throttling to work. So we only add stripes slowly. We set a flag when an allocation fails because all stripes are in use, allocate at a convenient time when that flag is set, and don't allow it to be set again until at least one stripe_head has been released for re-use. This means that a spurt of requests will only cause one stripe_head to be allocated, but a steady stream of requests will slowly increase the cache size - until memory pressure puts it back again. It could take hours to reach a steady state. The value written to, and displayed in, stripe_cache_size is used as a minimum. The cache can grow above this and shrink back down to it. The actual size is not directly visible, though it can be deduced to some extent by watching stripe_cache_active. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

MD: raid5 trim support Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6 should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size. Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level drives. The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out. For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario: discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard. If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data consistency is important. If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such payload. Next patch will avoid it.

raid5-ppl: use resize_stripes() when enabling or disabling ppl Use resize_stripes() instead of raid5_reset_stripe_cache() to allocate or free sh->ppl_page at runtime for all stripes in the stripe cache. raid5_reset_stripe_cache() required suspending the mddev and could deadlock because of GFP_KERNEL allocations. Move the 'newsize' check to check_reshape() to allow reallocating the stripes with the same number of disks. Allocate sh->ppl_page in alloc_stripe() instead of grow_buffers(). Pass 'struct r5conf *conf' as a parameter to alloc_stripe() because it is needed to check whether to allocate ppl_page. Add free_stripe() and use it to free stripes rather than directly call kmem_cache_free(). Also free sh->ppl_page in free_stripe(). Set MD_HAS_PPL at the end of ppl_init_log() instead of explicitly setting it in advance and add another parameter to log_init() to allow calling ppl_init_log() without the bit set. Don't try to calculate partial parity or add a stripe to log if it does not have ppl_page set. Enabling ppl can now be performed without suspending the mddev, because the log won't be used until new stripes are allocated with ppl_page. Calling mddev_suspend/resume is still necessary when disabling ppl, because we want all stripes to finish before stopping the log, but resize_stripes() can be called after mddev_resume() when ppl is no longer active.

md: Don't update ->recovery_offset when reshaping an array to fewer devices. When an array is reshaped to have fewer devices, the reshape proceeds from the end of the devices to the beginning. If a device happens to be non-In_sync (which is possible but rare) we would normally update the ->recovery_offset as the reshape progresses. However that would be wrong as the recover_offset records that the early part of the device is in_sync, while in fact it would only be the later part that is in_sync, and in any case the offset number would be measured from the wrong end of the device. Relatedly, if after a reshape a spare is discovered to not be recoverred all the way to the end, not allow spare_active to incorporate it in the array. This becomes relevant in the following sample scenario: A 4 drive RAID5 is converted to a 6 drive RAID6 in a combined operation. The RAID5->RAID6 conversion will cause a 5 drive to be included as a spare, then the 5drive -> 6drive reshape will effectively rebuild that spare as it progresses. The 6th drive is treated as in_sync the whole time as there is never any case that we might consider reading from it, but must not because there is no valid data. If we interrupt this reshape part-way through and reverse it to return to a 5-drive RAID6 (or event a 4-drive RAID5), we don't want to update the recovery_offset - as that would be wrong - and we don't want to include that spare as active in the 5-drive RAID6 when the reversed reshape completed and it will be mostly out-of-sync still.

Move the 'newsize' check to check_reshape() to allow reallocating the stripes with the same number of disks. Allocate sh->ppl_page in alloc_stripe() instead of grow_buffers(). Pass 'struct r5conf *conf' as a parameter to alloc_stripe() because it is needed to check whether to allocate ppl_page. Add free_stripe() and use it to free stripes rather than directly call kmem_cache_free(). Also free sh->ppl_page in free_stripe(). Set MD_HAS_PPL at the end of ppl_init_log() instead of explicitly setting it in advance and add another parameter to log_init() to allow calling ppl_init_log() without the bit set. Don't try to calculate partial parity or add a stripe to log if it does not have ppl_page set. Enabling ppl can now be performed without suspending the mddev, because the log won't be used until new stripes are allocated with ppl_page. Calling mddev_suspend/resume is still necessary when disabling ppl, because we want all stripes to finish before stopping the log, but resize_stripes() can be called after mddev_resume() when ppl is no longer active.

md/raid5: allow the stripe_cache to grow and shrink. The default setting of 256 stripe_heads is probably much too small for many configurations. So it is best to make it auto-configure. Shrinking the cache under memory pressure is easy. The only interesting part here is that we put a fairly high cost ('seeks') on shrinking the cache as the cost is greater than just having to read more data, it reduces parallelism. Growing the cache on demand needs to be done carefully. If we allow fast growth, that can upset memory balance as lots of dirty memory can quickly turn into lots of memory queued in the stripe_cache. It is important for the raid5 block device to appear congested to allow write-throttling to work. So we only add stripes slowly. We set a flag when an allocation fails because all stripes are in use, allocate at a convenient time when that flag is set, and don't allow it to be set again until at least one stripe_head has been released for re-use. This means that a spurt of requests will only cause one stripe_head to be allocated, but a steady stream of requests will slowly increase the cache size - until memory pressure puts it back again. It could take hours to reach a steady state. The value written to, and displayed in, stripe_cache_size is used as a minimum. The cache can grow above this and shrink back down to it. The actual size is not directly visible, though it can be deduced to some extent by watching stripe_cache_active. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

md/r5cache: write-out phase and reclaim support There are two limited resources, stripe cache and journal disk space. For better performance, we priotize reclaim of full stripe writes. To free up more journal space, we free earliest data on the journal. In current implementation, reclaim happens when: 1. Periodically (every R5C_RECLAIM_WAKEUP_INTERVAL, 30 seconds) reclaim if there is no reclaim in the past 5 seconds. 2. when there are R5C_FULL_STRIPE_FLUSH_BATCH (256) cached full stripes, or cached stripes is enough for a full stripe (chunk size / 4k) (r5c_check_cached_full_stripe) 3. when there is pressure on stripe cache (r5c_check_stripe_cache_usage) 4. when there is pressure on journal space (r5l_write_stripe, r5c_cache_data) r5c_do_reclaim() contains new logic of reclaim. For stripe cache: When stripe cache pressure is high (more than 3/4 stripes are cached, or there is empty inactive lists), flush all full stripe. If fewer than R5C_RECLAIM_STRIPE_GROUP (NR_STRIPE_HASH_LOCKS * 2) full stripes are flushed, flush some paritial stripes. When stripe cache pressure is moderate (1/2 to 3/4 of stripes are cached), flush all full stripes. For log space: To avoid deadlock due to log space, we need to reserve enough space to flush cached data. The size of required log space depends on total number of cached stripes (stripe_in_journal_count). In current implementation, the writing-out phase automatically include pending data writes with parity writes (similar to write through case). Therefore, we need up to (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each cached stripe (1 page for meta data, raid_disks pages for all data and parity). r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() calculates log space required to flush cache. In the following, we refer to the space calculated by r5c_log_required_to_flush_cache() as reclaim_required_space. Two flags are added to r5conf->cache_state: R5C_LOG_TIGHT and R5C_LOG_CRITICAL. R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set when free space on the log device is less than 3x of reclaim_required_space. R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set when free space on the log device is less than 2x of reclaim_required_space. r5c_cache keeps all data in cache (not fully committed to RAID) in a list (stripe_in_journal_list). These stripes are in the order of their first appearance on the journal. So the log tail (last_checkpoint) should point to the journal_start of the first item in the list. When R5C_LOG_TIGHT is set, r5l_reclaim_thread starts flushing out stripes at the head of stripe_in_journal. When R5C_LOG_CRITICAL is set, the state machine only writes data that are already in the log device (in stripe_in_journal_list).

[PATCH] md: allow reads that have bypassed the cache to be retried on failure If a bypass-the-cache read fails, we simply try again through the cache. If it fails again it will trigger normal recovery precedures. update 1: From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 1/ chunk_aligned_read and retry_aligned_read assume that data_disks == raid_disks - 1 which is not true for raid6. So when an aligned read request bypasses the cache, we can get the wrong data. 2/ The cloned bio is being used-after-free in raid5_align_endio (to test BIO_UPTODATE). 3/ We forgot to add rdev->data_offset when submitting a bio for aligned-read 4/ clone_bio calls blk_recount_segments and then we change bi_bdev, so we need to invalidate the segment counts. 5/ We don't de-reference the rdev when the read completes. This means we need to record the rdev to so it is still available in the end_io routine. Fortunately bi_next in the original bio is unused at this point so we can stuff it in there. 6/ We leak a cloned bio if the target rdev is not usable. From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> update 2: 1/ When aligned requests fail (read error) they need to be retried via the normal method (stripe cache). As we cannot be sure that we can process a single read in one go (we may not be able to allocate all the stripes needed) we store a bio-being-retried and a list of bioes-that-still-need-to-be-retried. When find a bio that needs to be retried, we should add it to the list, not to single-bio... 2/ We were never incrementing 'scnt' when resubmitting failed aligned requests.

This time I use workqueue. raid5 handles request (especially write) in stripe unit. A stripe is page size aligned/long and acrosses all disks. Writing to any disk sector, raid5 runs a state machine for the corresponding stripe, which includes reading some disks of the stripe, calculating parity, and writing some disks of the stripe. The state machine is running in raid5d thread currently. Since there is only one thread, it doesn't scale well for high speed storage. An obvious solution is multi-threading. To get better performance, we have some requirements: a. locality. stripe corresponding to request submitted from one cpu is better handled in thread in local cpu or local node. local cpu is preferred but some times could be a bottleneck, for example, parity calculation is too heavy. local node running has wide adaptability. b. configurablity. Different setup of raid5 array might need diffent configuration. Especially the thread number. More threads don't always mean better performance because of lock contentions. My original implementation is creating some kernel threads. There are interfaces to control which cpu's stripe each thread should handle. And userspace can set affinity of the threads. This provides biggest flexibility and configurability. But it's hard to use and apparently a new thread pool implementation is disfavor. Recent workqueue improvement is quite promising. unbound workqueue will be bound to numa node. If WQ_SYSFS is set in workqueue, there are sysfs option to do affinity setting. For example, we can only include one HT sibling in affinity. Since work is non-reentrant by default, and we can control running thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. In this patch, I created several stripe worker group. A group is a numa node. stripes from cpus of one node will be added to a group list. Workqueue thread of one node will only handle stripes of worker group of the node. In this way, stripe handling has numa node locality. And as I said, we can control thread number by limiting dispatched work_struct number. The work_struct callback function handles several stripes in one run. A typical work queue usage is to run one unit in each work_struct. In raid5 case, the unit is a stripe. But we can't do that: a. Though handling a stripe doesn't need lock because of reference accounting and stripe isn't in any list, queuing a work_struct for each stripe will make workqueue lock contended very heavily. b. blk_start_plug()/blk_finish_plug() should surround stripe handle, as we might dispatch request. If each work_struct only handles one stripe, such block plug is meaningless. This implementation can't do very fine grained configuration. But the numa binding is most popular usage model, should be enough for most workloads. Note: since we have only one stripe queue, switching to multi-thread might decrease request size dispatching down to low level layer. The impact depends on thread number, raid configuration and workload. So multi-thread raid5 might not be proper for all setups. Changes V1 -> V2: 1. remove WQ_NON_REENTRANT 2. disabling multi-threading by default 3.
