Because CUTOFF_WRITEBACK is defined as 40, so before the changes of dynamic cutoff writeback values, writeback_percent is limited to [0, CUTOFF_WRITEBACK]. Any value larger than CUTOFF_WRITEBACK will be fixed up to 40. Now cutof writeback limit is a dynamic value bch_cutoff_writeback, so the range of writeback_percent can be a more flexible range as [0, bch_cutoff_writeback]. The flexibility is, it can be expended to a larger or smaller range than [0, 40], depends on how value bch_cutoff_writeback is specified. The default value is still strongly recommended to most of users for most of workloads. But for people who want to do research on bcache writeback perforamnce tuning, they may have chance to specify more flexible writeback_percent in range [0, 70]. Signed-off-by:

Currently the cutoff writeback and cutoff writeback sync thresholds are defined by CUTOFF_WRITEBACK (40) and CUTOFF_WRITEBACK_SYNC (70) as static values. Most of time these they work fine, but when people want to do research on bcache writeback mode performance tuning, there is no chance to modify the soft and hard cutoff writeback values. This patch introduces two module parameters bch_cutoff_writeback_sync and bch_cutoff_writeback which permit people to tune the values when loading bcache.ko. If they are not specified by module loading, current values CUTOFF_WRITEBACK_SYNC and CUTOFF_WRITEBACK will be used as default and nothing changes. When people want to tune this two values, - cutoff_writeback can be set in range [1, 70] - cutoff_writeback_sync can be set in range [1, 90] - cutoff_writeback always <= cutoff_writeback_sync The default values are strongly recommended to most of users for most of workloads. Anyway, if people wants to take their own risk to do research on new writeback cutoff tuning for their own workload, now they can make it. Signed-off-by:

The option gc_after_writeback is disabled by default, because garbage collection will discard SSD data which drops cached data. Echo 1 into /sys/fs/bcache/<UUID>/internal/gc_after_writeback will enable this option, which wakes up gc thread when writeback accomplished and all cached data is clean. This option is helpful for people who cares writing performance more. In heavy writing workload, all cached data can be clean only happens when writeback thread cleans all cached data in I/O idle time. In such situation a following gc running may help to shrink bcache B+ tree and discard more clean data, which may be helpful for future writing requests. If you are not sure whether this is helpful for your own workload, please leave it as disabled by default. Signed-off-by:

Garbage collection thread starts to work when c->sectors_to_gc is negative value, otherwise nothing will happen even the gc thread is woken up by wake_up_gc(). force_wake_up_gc() sets c->sectors_to_gc to -1 before calling wake_up_gc(), then gc thread may have chance to run if no one else sets c->sectors_to_gc to a positive value before gc_should_run(). This routine can be called where the gc thread is woken up and required to run in force. Signed-off-by:

A fresh backing device is not attached to any cache_set, and has no writeback kthread created until first attached to some cache_set. But bch_cached_dev_writeback_init run " dc->writeback_running = true; WARN_ON(test_and_clear_bit(BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING, &dc->disk.flags)); " for any newly formatted backing devices. For a fresh standalone backing device, we can get something like following even if no writeback kthread created: ------------------------ /sys/block/bcache0/bcache# cat writeback_running 1 /sys/block/bcache0/bcache# cat writeback_rate_debug rate: 512.0k/sec dirty: 0.0k target: 0.0k proportional: 0.0k integral: 0.0k change: 0.0k/sec next io: -15427384ms The none ZERO fields are misleading as no alive writeback kthread yet. Set dc->writeback_running false as no writeback thread created in bch_cached_dev_writeback_init(). We have writeback thread created and woken up in bch_cached_dev_writeback _start(). Set dc->writeback_running true before bch_writeback_queue() called, as a writeback thread will check if dc->writeback_running is true before writing back dirty data, and hung if false detected. After the change, we can get the following output for a fresh standalone backing device: ----------------------- /sys/block/bcache0/bcache$ cat writeback_running 0 /sys/block/bcache0/bcache# cat writeback_rate_debug rate: 0.0k/sec dirty: 0.0k target: 0.0k proportional: 0.0k integral: 0.0k change: 0.0k/sec next io: 0ms v1 -> v2: Set dc->writeback_running before bch_writeback_queue() called, Signed-off-by:

We have the following define for btree iterator: struct btree_iter { size_t size, used; #ifdef CONFIG_BCACHE_DEBUG struct btree_keys *b; #endif struct btree_iter_set { struct bkey *k, *end; } data[MAX_BSETS]; }; We can see that the length of data[] field is static MAX_BSETS, which is defined as 4 currently. But a btree node on disk could have too many bsets for an iterator to fit on the stack - maybe far more that MAX_BSETS. Have to dynamically allocate space to host more btree_iter_sets. bch_cache_set_alloc() will make sure the pool cache_set->fill_iter can allocate an iterator equipped with enough room that can host (sb.bucket_size / sb.block_size) btree_iter_sets, which is more than static MAX_BSETS. bch_btree_node_read_done() will use that pool to allocate one iterator, to host many bsets in one btree node. Add more comment around cache_set->fill_iter to make code less confusing. Signed-off-by: -

Between v3 [1] and v4 [2] of the blkg association series, the association point moved from generic_make_request_checks(), which is called after the request enters the queue, to bio_set_dev(), which is when the bio is formed before submit_bio(). When the request_queue goes away, the blkgs supporting the request_queue are destroyed and then the q->root_blkg is set to %NULL. This patch adds a %NULL check to blkg_tryget_closest() to prevent the NPE caused by the above. It also adds a guard to see if the request_queue is dying when creating a blkg to prevent creating a blkg for a dead request_queue.

We're missing a deferred clear off the shallow get, which can cause a hang. Additionally, when we resize the sbitmap, we should also flush deferred clears for good measure. Ensure we have full coverage on batch clears, even for paths where we would not be doing deferred clear. This makes it less error prone for future additions. Reported-by:

Ehen using pblk with 0 sized metadata both ppa list and meta list points to the same memory since pblk_dma_meta_size() returns 0 in that case. This patch fix that issue by ensuring that pblk_dma_meta_size() always returns space equal to sizeof(struct pblk_sec_meta) and thus ppa list and meta list points to different memory address. Even that in that case drive does not really care about meta_list pointer, this is the easiest way to fix that issue without introducing changes in many places in the code just for 0 sized metadata case. The same approach needs to be also done for pblk_get_sec_meta() since we also cannot point to the same memory address in meta buffer when we are using it for pblk recovery process Reported-by:

pblk performs recovery of open lines by storing the LBA in the per LBA metadata field. Recovery therefore only works for drives that has this field. This patch adds support for packed metadata, which store l2p mapping for open lines in last sector of every write unit and enables drives without per IO metadata to recover open lines. After this patch, drives with OOB size <16B will use packed metadata and metadata size larger than16B will continue to use the device per IO metadata. Reviewed-by:

Currently pblk only check the size of I/O metadata and does not take into account if this metadata is in a separate buffer or interleaved in a single metadata buffer. In reality only the first scenario is supported, where second mode will break pblk functionality during any IO operation. This patch prevents pblk to be instantiated in case device only supports interleaved metadata. Reviewed-by:

Currently lightnvm and pblk uses single DMA pool, for which the entry size always is equal to PAGE_SIZE. The contents of each entry allocated from the DMA pool consists of a PPA list (8bytes * 64), leaving 56bytes * 64 space for metadata. Since the metadata field can be bigger, such as 128 bytes, the static size does not cover this use-case. This patch adds support for I/O metadata above 56 bytes by changing DMA pool size based on device meta size and allows pblk to use OOB metadata >=16B. Reviewed-by:

The current kref implementation around pblk global caches triggers a false positive on refcount_inc_checked() (when called) as the kref is initialized to 0. Instead of usint kref_inc() on a 0 reference, which is in principle correct, use kref_init() to avoid the check. This is also more explicit about what actually happens on cache creation. In the process, do a small refactoring to use kref helpers. Fixes: 1864de94 "lightnvm: pblk: stop recreating global caches" Signed-off-by:

Currently the geometry of an OCSSD is enumerated using a two step approach: First, nvm_register is called, the OCSSD identify command is issued, and second the geometry sos and csecs values are read either from the OCSSD identify if it is a 1.2 drive, or from the NVMe namespace data structure if it is a 2.0 device. This patch recombines it into a single step, such that nvm_register can use the csecs and sos fields independent of which version is used. This enables one to dynamically size the lightnvm subsystem dma pool. Reviewed-by:

In a worst-case scenario (random writes), OP% of sectors in each line will be invalid, and we will then need to move data out of 100/OP% lines to free a single line. So, to prevent the possibility of running out of lines, temporarily block user writes when there is less than 100/OP% free lines. Also ensure that pblk creation does not produce instances with insufficient over provisioning. Insufficient over-provising is not a problem on real hardware, but often an issue when running QEMU simulations (with few lines). 100 lines is enough to create a sane instance with the standard (11%) over provisioning.

Make sure we only look up valid lba addresses on the resubmission path.

Guenter reported an boot hang issue on HPPA after we default to 0 poll queues. We have two issues in the queue count calculations: 1) We don't separate the poll queues from the read/write queues. This is important, since the former doesn't need interrupts. 2) The adjust logic is broken. Adjust the poll queue count before doing nvme_calc_io_queues(). The poll queue count is only limited by the IO queue count we were able to get from the controller, not failures in the IRQ allocation loop. This leaves nvme_calc_io_queues() just adjusting the read/write queue map. Reported-by:

After switching to percpu inflight counters, the inflight check is totally buggy. It's perfectly valid for some counters to be non-zero while having a total inflight IO count of 0, that's how these kinds of counters work (inc on one CPU, dec on another). Fix the md_in_flight() check to sum all counters before returning a false positive, potentially. While at it, remove the inflight read for IO completion. We don't need it, just wake anyone that's waiting for the IO count to drop to zero. The caller needs to re-check that value anyway when woken, which it does.
