      skd: use ktime_get_real_seconds() · 474f5da2
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      Like many storage drivers, skd uses an unsigned 32-bit number for
      interchanging the current time with the firmware. This will overflow in
      y2106 and is otherwise safe.
      
      However, the get_seconds() function is generally considered deprecated
      since the behavior is different between 32-bit and 64-bit architectures,
      and using it may indicate a bigger problem.
      
      To annotate that we've thought about this, let's add a comment here
      and migrate to the ktime_get_real_seconds() function that consistently
      returns a 64-bit number.

      block: fix CDROM dependency on BLK_DEV · c091fbe9
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      After the cdrom cleanup, I get randconfig warnings for some configurations:
      
      warning: (BLK_DEV_IDECD && BLK_DEV_SR) selects CDROM which has unmet direct dependencies (BLK_DEV)
      
      This adds an explicit BLK_DEV dependency for both drivers. The other
      drivers that select 'CDROM' already have this and don't need a change.
      
      Fixes: 2a750166 ("block: Rework drivers/cdrom/Makefile")

      bcache: explicitly destroy mutex while exiting · 330a4db8
      Liang Chen authored
      mutex_destroy does nothing most of time, but it's better to call
      it to make the code future proof and it also has some meaning
      for like mutex debug.
      
      As Coly pointed out in a previous review, bcache_exit() may not be
      able to handle all the references properly if userspace registers
      cache and backing devices right before bch_debug_init runs and
      bch_debug_init failes later. So not exposing userspace interface
      until everything is ready to avoid that issue.

      bcache: fix wrong cache_misses statistics · c1573137
      tang.junhui authored
      Currently, Cache missed IOs are identified by s->cache_miss, but actually,
      there are many situations that missed IOs are not assigned a value for
      s->cache_miss in cached_dev_cache_miss(), for example, a bypassed IO
      (s->iop.bypass = 1), or the cache_bio allocate failed. In these situations,
      it will go to out_put or out_submit, and s->cache_miss is null, which leads
      bch_mark_cache_accounting() to treat this IO as a hit IO.

      bcache: update bucket_in_use in real time · d44c2f9e
      Tang Junhui authored
      bucket_in_use is updated in gc thread which triggered by invalidating or
      writing sectors_to_gc dirty data, It's a long interval. Therefore, when we
      use it to compare with the threshold, it is often not timely, which leads
      to inaccurate judgment and often results in bucket depletion.
      
      We have send a patch before, by the means of updating bucket_in_use
      periodically In gc thread, which Coly thought that would lead high
      latency, In this patch, we add avail_nbuckets to record the count of
      available buckets, and we calculate bucket_in_use when alloc or free
      bucket in real time.

      bcache: convert cached_dev.count from atomic_t to refcount_t · 3b304d24
      Elena Reshetova authored
      atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
      counters with the following properties:
       - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
       - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
       - once counter reaches zero, its further
         increments aren't allowed
       - counter schema uses basic atomic operations
         (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
      
      Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
      refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
      and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
      can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
      
      The variable cached_dev.count is used as pure reference counter.
      Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.

      bcache: only permit to recovery read error when cache device is clean · d59b2379
      Coly Li authored
      When bcache does read I/Os, for example in writeback or writethrough mode,
      if a read request on cache device is failed, bcache will try to recovery
      the request by reading from cached device. If the data on cached device is
      not synced with cache device, then requester will get a stale data.
      
      For critical storage system like database, providing stale data from
      recovery may result an application level data corruption, which is
      unacceptible.
      
      With this patch, for a failed read request in writeback or writethrough
      mode, recovery a recoverable read request only happens when cache device
      is clean. That is to say, all data on cached device is up to update.
      
      For other cache modes in bcache, read request will never hit
      cached_dev_read_error(), they don't need this patch.
      
      Please note, because cache mode can be switched arbitrarily in run time, a
      writethrough mode might be switched from a writeback mode. Therefore
      checking dc->has_data in writethrough mode still makes sense.
      
      Changelog:
      V4: Fix parens error pointed by Michael Lyle.
      v3: By response from Kent Oversteet, he thinks recovering stale data is a
          bug to fix, and option to permit it is unnecessary. So this version
          the sysfs file is removed.
      v2: rename sysfs entry from allow_stale_data_on_failure  to
          allow_stale_data_on_failure, and fix the confusing commit log.
      v1: initial patch posted.
