The code poses a security risk due to user memory access in ->release and had an API that can't be used reliably. As far as we know it was never used for real, but if that turns out wrong we'll have to revert this commit and come up with a band aid. Jann Horn did look software archives for users of this interface, and the only users found were example code in sg3_utils, and optional support in an optional module of the tgt user space iscsi target, which looks like a proof of concept extension of the /dev/sg read/write support. Tony Battersby chimes in that the code is basically unsafe to use in general: The read/write interface on /dev/bsg is impossible to use safely because the list of completed commands is per-device (bd->done_list) rather than per-fd like it is with /dev/sg. So if program A and program B are both using the write/read interface on the same bsg device, then their command responses will get mixed up, and program A will read() some command results from program B and vice versa. So no, I don't use read/write on /dev/bsg. From a security standpoint, it should definitely be fixed or removed.

Currently mbps knob could only be set once before switching power knob to on, after power knob has been set at least once, there is no way to set mbps knob again due to -EBUSY. As nullb is mainly used for testing, in order to make it flexible, this removes the flag NULLB_DEV_FL_CONFIGURED so that mbps knob can be reset when power knob is off, e.g. echo 0 > /config/nullb/a/power echo 40 > /config/nullb/a/mbps echo 1 > /config/nullb/a/power So does other knobs under /config/nullb/a.

We noticed in testing we'd get pretty bad latency stalls under heavy pressure because read ahead would try to do its thing while the cgroup was under severe pressure. If we're under this much pressure we want to do as little IO as possible so we can still make progress on real work if we're a throttled cgroup, so just skip readahead if our group is under pressure.

Current IO controllers for the block layer are less than ideal for our use case. The io.max controller is great at hard limiting, but it is not work conserving. This patch introduces io.latency. You provide a latency target for your group and we monitor the io in short windows to make sure we are not exceeding those latency targets. This makes use of the rq-qos infrastructure and works much like the wbt stuff. There are a few differences from wbt - It's bio based, so the latency covers the whole block layer in addition to the actual io. - We will throttle all IO types that comes in here if we need to. - We use the mean latency over the 100ms window. This is because writes can be particularly fast, which could give us a false sense of the impact of other workloads on our protected workload. - By default there's no throttling, we set the queue_depth to INT_MAX so that we can have as many outstanding bio's as we're allowed to. Only at throttle time do we pay attention to the actual queue depth. - We backcharge cgroups for root cg issued IO and induce artificial delays in order to deal with cases like metadata only or swap heavy workloads. In testing this has worked out relatively well. Protected workloads will throttle noisy workloads down to 1 io at time if they are doing normal IO on their own, or induce up to a 1 second delay per syscall if they are doing a lot of root issued IO (metadata/swap IO). Our testing has revolved mostly around our production web servers where we have hhvm (the web server application) in a protected group and everything else in another group. We see slightly higher requests per second (RPS) on the test tier vs the control tier, and much more stable RPS across all machines in the test tier vs the control tier. Another test we run is a slow memory allocator in the unprotected group. Before this would eventually push us into swap and cause the whole box to die and not recover at all. With these patches we see slight RPS drops (usually 10-15%) before the memory consumer is properly killed and things recover within seconds.

Memory allocations can induce swapping via kswapd or direct reclaim. If we are having IO done for us by kswapd and don't actually go into direct reclaim we may never get scheduled for throttling. So instead check to see if our cgroup is congested, and if so schedule the throttling. Before we return to user space the throttling stuff will only throttle if we actually required it.

Since IO can be issued from literally anywhere it's almost impossible to do throttling without having some sort of adverse effect somewhere else in the system because of locking or other dependencies. The best way to solve this is to do the throttling when we know we aren't holding any other kernel resources. Do this by tracking throttling in a per-blkg basis, and if we require throttling flag the task that it needs to check before it returns to user space and possibly sleep there. This is to address the case where a process is doing work that is generating IO that can't be throttled, whether that is directly with a lot of REQ_META IO, or indirectly by allocating so much memory that it is swamping the disk with REQ_SWAP. We can't use task_add_work as we don't want to induce a memory allocation in the IO path, so simply saving the request queue in the task and flagging it to do the notify_resume thing achieves the same result without the overhead of a memory allocation.

Instead of forcing all file systems to get the right context on their bio's, simply check for REQ_META to see if we need to issue as the root blkg. We don't want to force all bio's to have the root blkg associated with them if REQ_META is set, as some controllers (blk-iolatency) need to know who the originating cgroup is so it can backcharge them for the work they are doing. This helper will make sure that the controllers do the proper thing wrt the IO priority and backcharging.

Currently io.low uses a bi_cg_private to stash its private data for the blkg, however other blkcg policies may want to use this as well. Since we can get the private data out of the blkg, move this to bi_blkg in the bio and make it generic, then we can use bio_associate_blkg() to attach the blkg to the bio. Theoretically we could simply replace the bi_css with this since we can get to all the same information from the blkg, however you have to lookup the blkg, so for example wbc_init_bio() would have to lookup and possibly allocate the blkg for the css it was trying to attach to the bio. This could be problematic and result in us either not attaching the css at all to the bio, or falling back to the root blkcg if we are unable to allocate the corresponding blkg. So for now do this, and in the future if possible we could just replace the bi_css with bi_blkg and update the helpers to do the correct translation.

Only attempt to merge bio iff the ctx->rq_list isn't empty, because: 1) for high-performance SSD, most of times dispatch may succeed, then there may be nothing left in ctx->rq_list, so don't try to merge over sw queue if it is empty, then we can save one acquiring of ctx->lock 2) we can't expect good merge performance on per-cpu sw queue, and missing one merge on sw queue won't be a big deal since tasks can be scheduled from one CPU to another.

The payload of struct request is stored in the request.bio chain if the RQF_SPECIAL_PAYLOAD flag is not set and in request.special_vec if RQF_SPECIAL_PAYLOAD has been set. However, blk_update_request() iterates over req->bio whether or not RQF_SPECIAL_PAYLOAD has been set. Additionally, the RQF_SPECIAL_PAYLOAD flag is ignored by blk_rq_bytes() which means that the value returned by that function is incorrect if the RQF_SPECIAL_PAYLOAD flag has been set. It is not clear to me whether this is an oversight or whether this happened on purpose. Anyway, document that it is known that both functions ignore RQF_SPECIAL_PAYLOAD.
