      bcache: fixup multiple threads crash · 887554ab
      Mingzhe Zou authored
      When multiple threads to check btree nodes in parallel, the main
      thread wait for all threads to stop or CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE flag:
      
      wait_event_interruptible(check_state->wait,
                               atomic_read(&check_state->started) == 0 ||
                               test_bit(CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE, &c->flags));
      
      However, the bch_btree_node_read and bch_btree_node_read_done
      maybe call bch_cache_set_error, then the CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE
      will be set. If the flag already set, the main thread return
      error. At the same time, maybe some threads still running and
      read NULL pointer, the kernel will crash.
      
      This patch change the event wait condition, the main thread must
      wait for all threads to stop.

      bcache: fixup bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() multithreaded CPU false sharing · 7b1002f7
      Mingzhe Zou authored
      When attaching a cached device (a.k.a backing device) to a cache
      device, bch_sectors_dirty_init() is called to count dirty sectors
      and stripes (see what bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() does) on the
      cache device.
      
      When bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() is called, set_bit(stripe,
      d->full_dirty_stripes) or clear_bit(stripe, d->full_dirty_stripes)
      operation will always be performed. In full_dirty_stripes, each 1bit
      represents stripe_size (8192) sectors (512B), so 1bit=4MB (8192*512),
      and each CPU cache line=64B=512bit=2048MB. When 20 threads process
      a cached disk with 100G dirty data, a single thread processes about
      23M at a time, and 20 threads total 460M. These full_dirty_stripes
      bits corresponding to the 460M data is likely to fall in the same CPU
      cache line. When one of these threads performs a set_bit or clear_bit
      operation, the same CPU cache line of other threads will become invalid
      and must read the full_dirty_stripes from the main memory again. Compared
      with single thread, the time of a bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add()
      call is increased by about 50 times in our test (100G dirty data,
      20 threads, bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() is called more than
      20 million times).
      
      This patch tries to test_bit before set_bit or clear_bit operation.
      Therefore, a lot of force set and clear operations will be avoided,
      and most of bcache_dev_sectors_dirty_add() calls will only read CPU
      cache line.
