      bcache: Change refill_dirty() to always scan entire disk if necessary · 627ccd20
      Kent Overstreet authored 
      Previously, it would only scan the entire disk if it was starting from
the very start of the disk - i.e. if the previous scan got to the end.

This was broken by refill_full_stripes(), which updates last_scanned so
that refill_dirty was never triggering the searched_from_start path.

But if we change refill_dirty() to always scan the entire disk if
necessary, regardless of what last_scanned was, the code gets cleaner
and we fix that bug too.

      bcache: prevent crash on changing writeback_running · 8d16ce54
      Stefan Bader authored 
      Added a safeguard in the shutdown case. At least while not being
attached it is also possible to trigger a kernel bug by writing into
writeback_running. This change  adds the same check before trying to
wake up the thread for that case.

      bcache: allows use of register in udev to avoid "device_busy" error. · d7076f21
      Gabriel de Perthuis authored 
      Allows to use register, not register_quiet in udev to avoid "device_busy" error.
The initial patch proposed at https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/26/549 by Gabriel de Perthuis
<g2p.code@gmail.com> does not unlock the mutex and hangs the kernel.

See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.bcache.devel/2594 for the discussion.

      Zheng Liu authored 
      In bcache_init() function it forgot to unregister reboot notifier if

      bcache: clear BCACHE_DEV_UNLINK_DONE flag when attaching a backing device · fecaee6f
      Zheng Liu authored 
      This bug can be reproduced by the following script:

  #!/bin/bash

  bcache_sysfs="/sys/fs/bcache"

  function clear_cache()
  {
  	if [ ! -e $bcache_sysfs ]; then
  		echo "no bcache sysfs"
  		exit
  	fi

  	cset_uuid=$(ls -l $bcache_sysfs|head -n 2|tail -n 1|awk '{print $9}')
  	sudo sh -c "echo $cset_uuid > /sys/block/sdb/sdb1/bcache/detach"
  	sleep 5
  	sudo sh -c "echo $cset_uuid > /sys/block/sdb/sdb1/bcache/attach"
  }

  for ((i=0;i<10;i++)); do
  	clear_cache
  done

We forget to clear BCACHE_DEV_UNLINK_DONE flag in bcache_device_attach()
function when we attach a backing device first time.  After detaching this
backing device, this flag will be true and sysfs_remove_link() isn't called in
bcache_device_unlink().  Then when we attach this backing device again,
sysfs_create_link() will return EEXIST error in bcache_device_link().

So the fix is trival and we clear this flag in bcache_device_link().

      bcache: fix a livelock when we cause a huge number of cache misses · 2ef9ccbf
      Zheng Liu authored 
      Subject :	[PATCH v2] bcache: fix a livelock in btree lock
Date :	Wed, 25 Feb 2015 20:32:09 +0800 (02/25/2015 04:32:09 AM)

This commit tries to fix a livelock in bcache.  This livelock might
happen when we causes a huge number of cache misses simultaneously.

When we get a cache miss, bcache will execute the following path.

->cached_dev_make_request()
  ->cached_dev_read()
    ->cached_lookup()
      ->bch->btree_map_keys()
        ->btree_root()  <------------------------
          ->bch_btree_map_keys_recurse()        |
            ->cache_lookup_fn()                 |
              ->cached_dev_cache_miss()         |
                ->bch_btree_insert_check_key() -|
                  [If btree->seq is not equal to seq + 1, we should return
                   EINTR and traverse btree again.]

In bch_btree_insert_check_key() function we first need to check upgrade
flag (op->lock == -1), and when this flag is true we need to release
read btree->lock and try to take write btree->lock.  During taking and
releasing this write lock, btree->seq will be monotone increased in
order to prevent other threads modify this in cache miss (see btree.h:74).
But if there are some cache misses caused by some requested, we could
meet a livelock because btree->seq is always changed by others.  Thus no
one can make progress.

This commit will try to take write btree->lock if it encounters a race
when we traverse btree.  Although it sacrifice the scalability but we
can ensure that only one can modify the btree.

      block: sx8.c: Replace timeval with ktime_t · 8182503d
      Shraddha Barke authored 
      32-bit systems using 'struct timeval' will break in the year 2038,
in order to avoid that replace the code with more appropriate types.
This patch replaces timeval with 64 bit ktime_t which is y2038 safe.
Since st->timestamp is only interested in seconds, directly using
time64_t here. Function ktime_get_seconds is used since it uses
monotonic instead of real time and thus will not cause overflow.
