      dm thin metadata: don't issue prefetches if a transaction abort has failed · 2eae9e44
      Joe Thornber authored
      If a transaction abort has failed then we can no longer use the metadata
      device.  Typically this happens if the superblock is unreadable.
      
      This fix addresses a crash seen during metadata device failure testing.
      
      Fixes: 8a01a6af ("dm thin: prefetch missing metadata pages")

      Mike Snitzer authored
      Allow user to change these values via module params or sysfs.
      
      'dm_mq_nr_hw_queues' defaults to 1 (max 32).
      
      'dm_mq_queue_depth' defaults to 2048 (up from 64, which proved far too
      small under moderate sized workloads -- the dm-multipath device would
      continuously block waiting for tags (requests) to become available).
      The maximum is BLK_MQ_MAX_DEPTH (currently 10240).
      
      Keep in mind the total number of pre-allocated requests per

      dm: optimize dm_mq_queue_rq() · 16f12266
      Mike Snitzer authored
      DM multipath is the only dm-mq target.  But that aside, request-based DM
      only supports tables with a single target that is immutable.  Leverage
      this fact in dm_mq_queue_rq() by using the 'immutable_target' stored in
      the mapped_device when the table was made active.  This saves the need
      to even take the read-side of the SRCU via dm_{get,put}_live_table.
      
      If the active DM table does not have an immutable target (e.g. "error"
      target was swapped in) then fallback to the slow-path where the target
      is looked up from the live table.

      dm: fix excessive dm-mq context switching · 6acfe68b
      Mike Snitzer authored
      Request-based DM's blk-mq support (dm-mq) was reported to be 50% slower
      than if an underlying null_blk device were used directly.  One of the
      reasons for this drop in performance is that blk_insert_clone_request()
      was calling blk_mq_insert_request() with @async=true.  This forced the
      use of kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on() to run the blk-mq hw queues
      which ushered in ping-ponging between process context (fio in this case)
      and kblockd's kworker to submit the cloned request.  The ftrace
      function_graph tracer showed:
      
        kworker-2013  =>   fio-12190
        fio-12190    =>  kworker-2013
        ...
        kworker-2013  =>   fio-12190
        fio-12190    =>  kworker-2013
        ...
      
      Fixing blk_insert_clone_request()'s blk_mq_insert_request() call to
      _not_ use kblockd to submit the cloned requests isn't enough to
      eliminate the observed context switches.
      
      In addition to this dm-mq specific blk-core fix, there are 2 DM core
      fixes to dm-mq that (when paired with the blk-core fix) completely
      eliminate the observed context switching:
      
      1)  don't blk_mq_run_hw_queues in blk-mq request completion
      
          Motivated by desire to reduce overhead of dm-mq, punting to kblockd
          just increases context switches.
      
          In my testing against a really fast null_blk device there was no benefit
          to running blk_mq_run_hw_queues() on completion (and no other blk-mq
          driver does this).  So hopefully this change doesn't induce the need for
          yet another revert like commit 621739b0 !
      
      2)  use blk_mq_complete_request() in dm_complete_request()
      
          blk_complete_request() doesn't offer the traditional q->mq_ops vs
          .request_fn branching pattern that other historic block interfaces
          do (e.g. blk_get_request).  Using blk_mq_complete_request() for
          blk-mq requests is important for performance.  It should be noted
          that, like blk_complete_request(), blk_mq_complete_request() doesn't
          natively handle partial completions -- but the request-based
          DM-multipath target does provide the required partial completion
          support by dm.c:end_clone_bio() triggering requeueing of the request
          via dm-mpath.c:multipath_end_io()'s return of DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE.
      
      dm-mq fix #2 is _much_ more important than #1 for eliminating the
      context switches.
      Before: cpu          : usr=15.10%, sys=59.39%, ctx=7905181, majf=0, minf=475
      After:  cpu          : usr=20.60%, sys=79.35%, ctx=2008, majf=0, minf=472
      
      With these changes multithreaded async read IOPs improved from ~950K
      to ~1350K for this dm-mq stacked on null_blk test-case.  The raw read
      IOPs of the underlying null_blk device for the same workload is ~1950K.

      Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
       "This is unusually large, partly due to the EFI fixes that prevent
        accidental deletion of EFI variables through efivarfs that may brick
        machines.  These fixes are somewhat involved to maintain compatibility
        with existing install methods and other usage modes, while trying to
        turn off the 'rm -rf' bricking vector.
      
        Other fixes are for large page ioremap()s and for non-temporal
        user-memcpy()s"
