During resync, if we need to block some specific incoming write because of active resync requests to that same range, we potentially caused *all* new application writes (to "cold" activity log extents) to block until this one request has been processed. Improve the do_submit() logic to * grab all incoming requests to some "incoming" list * process this list - move aside requests that are blocked by resync - prepare activity log transactions, - commit transactions and submit corresponding requests - if there are remaining requests that only wait for activity log extents to become free, stop the fast path (mark activity log as "starving") - iterate until no more requests are waiting for the activity log, but all potentially remaining requests are only blocked by resync * only then grab new incoming requests That way, very busy IO on currently "hot" activity log extents cannot starve scattered IO to "cold" extents. And blocked-by-resync requests are processed once resync traffic on the affected region has ceased, without blocking anything else. The only blocking mode left is when we cannot start requests to "cold" extents because all currently "hot" extents are actually used. Signed-off-by: -

Make the first line of debugfs files a version number, starting now with "v: 0". If we change content of presentation, we will bump that. Monitoring or diagnostic scritps that may parse these files can then easily know when they need to be reviewed. Signed-off-by:

* Add details about pending meta data operations to in_flight_summary. * Report number of requests waiting for activity log transactions. * timing details of peer_requests to in_flight_summary. * FLUSH details DRBD devides the incoming request stream into "epochs", in which peers are allowed to re-order writes independendly. These epochs are separated by P_BARRIER on the replication link. Such barrier packets, depending on configuration, may cause the receiving side to drain the lower level device request queues and call blkdev_issue_flush(). This is known to be an other major source of latency in DRBD. Track timing details of calls to blkdev_issue_flush(), and add them to in_flight_summary. * data socket stats To be able to diagnose bottlenecks and root causes of "slow" IO on DRBD, it is useful to see network buffer stats along with the timing details of requests, peer requests, and meta data IO. * pending bitmap IO timing details to in_flight_summary.

Try to close the race between open() and debugfs_remove_recursive() from inside an object destructor. Once open succeeds, the object should stay around. Open should not succeed if the object has already reached its destructor. This may be overkill, but to make that happen, we check for existence of a parent directory, "stale-ness" of "this" dentry, and serialize kref_get_unless_zero() on the outermost object relevant for this file with d_delete() on this dentry (using the parent's i_mutex).

To help diagnosing "high latency" or "hung" IO situations on DRBD, present per drbd resource group a summary of operations currently in progress. First item is a list of oldest drbd_request objects waiting for various things: * still being prepared * waiting for activity log transaction * waiting for local disk * waiting to be sent * waiting for peer acknowledgement ("receive ack", "write ack") * waiting for peer epoch acknowledgement ("barrier ack") Signed-off-by: -

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

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

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

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

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

Record (in jiffies) how much time a request spends in which stages. Followup commits will use and present this additional timing information so we can better locate and tackle the root causes of latency spikes, or present the backlog for asynchronous replication. Signed-off-by:

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

Now that we have additional asynchronous kref_get/kref_put via debugfs, make sure we catch access after free. Poison struct drbd_device, drbd_connection and drbd_resource before kfree() with 0xfd, 0xfc, and 0xf2, respectively. Signed-off-by:

Keep the epoch entry lists (active_ee, read_ee, sync_ee, ...) consistently "oldest first". That way finding the oldest not yet successfully processed request is simply list_first_entry_or_null. Signed-off-by:

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

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

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

If we lost a disk during the first resync after primary crash, we could have prematurely cleared the CRASHED_PRIMARY flag. Testing on C_CONNECTED is not what we meant there, but testing for both peers to become D_UP_TO_DATE. Signed-off-by:

If we throttle resync because the socket sendbuffer is filling up, tell TCP about it, so it may expand the sendbuffer for us. Signed-off-by:

This patch replaces rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. And in the case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize. So, rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL) Signed-off-by:

If "dirty" blocks are written to during resync, that brings them in-sync. By explicitly requesting write-acks during resync even in protocol != C, we now can actually respect this. Signed-off-by:

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

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

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

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

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

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