We do a lot of memory allocation in function init_vq, and don't handle
the allocation failure properly. Then this function will return 0,
although initialization fails due to lacking memory. At that moment,
kernel will panic in guest machine, if virtio is used to drive disk.
To fix this bug, we should take care of allocation failure, and return
correct value to let caller know what happen.

Since commit 63a4cc2486, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.
No intended functional changes in this commit.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
Commit abf545484d changed it from an 'rw' flags type to the
newer ops based interface, but now we're effectively leaking
some bdev internals to the rest of the kernel. Since we only
care about whether it's a read or a write at that level, just
pass in a bool 'is_write' parameter instead.
Then we can also move op_is_write() and friends back under
CONFIG_BLOCK protection.

It seems fairly obvious that device_create_file() is not being protected
from being run concurrently on the same nbd.
Quentin found the following relevant commits:
1a2ad21 nbd: add locking to nbd_ioctl
90b8f28 [PATCH] end of methods switch: remove the old ones
d4430d6 [PATCH] beginning of methods conversion
08f8585 [PATCH] move block_device_operations to blkdev.h
It would seem that the race was introduced in the process of moving nbd
from BKL to unlocked ioctls.
By setting nbd->task_recv while the mutex is held, we can prevent other
processes from running concurrently (since nbd->task_recv is also checked
while the mutex is held).

1/ Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing:
The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is
deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement either
ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm. ADR
(Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers to the
memory controller on a power-fail event. Flush addresses are defined in
ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure:
"Flush Hint Address Structure". A flush hint is an mmio address that
when written and fenced assures that all previous posted writes
targeting a given dimm have been flushed to media.
2/ On-demand ARS (address range scrub):
Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks
in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the media
to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a re-scrub at
any time.
3/ Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command format.
4/ Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges.
5/ Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem.

Add "deflate", "lz4hc", "842" algorithms to the list of known
compression backends. The real availability of those algorithms,
however, depends on the corresponding CONFIG_CRYPTO_FOO config options.

There is no way to get a string with all the crypto comp algorithms
supported by the crypto comp engine, so we need to maintain our own
backends list. At the same time we additionally need to use
crypto_has_comp() to make sure that the user has requested a compression
algorithm that is recognized by the crypto comp engine. Relying on
/proc/crypto is not an options here, because it does not show
not-yet-inserted compression modules.
Example:
modprobe zram
cat /proc/crypto | grep -i lz4
modprobe lz4
cat /proc/crypto | grep -i lz4
name : lz4
driver : lz4-generic
module : lz4
So the user can't tell exactly if the lz4 is really supported from
/proc/crypto output, unless someone or something has loaded it.
This patch also adds crypto_has_comp() to zcomp_available_show(). We
store all the compression algorithms names in zcomp's `backends' array,
regardless the CONFIG_CRYPTO_FOO configuration, but show only those that
are also supported by crypto engine. This helps user to know the exact
list of compression algorithms that can be used.
Example:
module lz4 is not loaded yet, but is supported by the crypto
engine. /proc/crypto has no information on this module, while
zram's `comp_algorithm' lists it:
cat /proc/crypto | grep -i lz4
cat /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm
[lzo] lz4 deflate lz4hc 842
We still use the `backends' array to determine if the requested
compression backend is known to crypto api. This array, however, may not
contain some entries, therefore as the last step we call crypto_has_comp()
function which attempts to insmod the requested compression algorithm to
determine if crypto api supports it. The advantage of this method is that
now we permit the usage of out-of-tree crypto compression modules
(implementing S/W or H/W compression).

This has started as a 'add zlib support' work, but after some thinking I
saw no blockers for a bigger change -- a switch to crypto API.
We don't have an idle zstreams list anymore and our write path now works
absolutely differently, preventing preemption during compression. This
removes possibilities of read paths preempting writes at wrong places
and opens the door for a move from custom LZO/LZ4 compression backends
implementation to a more generic one, using crypto compress API.
This patch set also eliminates the need of a new context-less crypto API
interface, which was quite hard to sell, so we can move along faster.
benchmarks:
(x86_64, 4GB, zram-perf script)
perf reported run-time fio (max jobs=3). I performed fio test with the
increasing number of parallel jobs (max to 3) on a 3G zram device, using
`static' data and the following crypto comp algorithms:
842, deflate, lz4, lz4hc, lzo
the output was:
- test running time (which can tell us what algorithms performs faster)
and
- zram mm_stat (which tells the compressed memory size, max used memory, etc).
It's just for information. for example, LZ4HC has twice the running
time of LZO, but the compressed memory size is: 23592960 vs 34603008
bytes.

Currently, presence of direct_access() in block_device_operations
indicates support of DAX on its block device. Because
block_device_operations is instantiated with 'const', this DAX
capablity may not be enabled conditinally.
In preparation for supporting DAX to device-mapper devices, add
QUEUE_FLAG_DAX to request_queue flags to advertise their DAX
support. This will allow to set the DAX capability based on how

blk_get_request is used for BLOCK_PC and similar passthrough requests.
Currently we always need to call blk_rq_set_block_pc or an open coded
version of it to allow appending bios using the request mapping helpers
later on, which is a somewhat awkward API. Instead move the
initialization part of blk_rq_set_block_pc into blk_get_request, so that
we always have a safe to use request.

These two are confusing leftover of the old world order, combining

special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or
op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_

xen-blkfront: save uncompleted reqs in blkfront_resume()
Uncompleted reqs used to be 'saved and resubmitted' in blkfront_recover() during
migration, but that's too late after multi-queue was introduced.
After a migrate to another host (which may not have multiqueue support), the
number of rings (block hardware queues) may be changed and the ring and shadow
structure will also be reallocated.
The blkfront_recover() then can't 'save and resubmit' the real
uncompleted reqs because shadow structure have been reallocated.
This patch fixes this issue by moving the 'save' logic out of
blkfront_recover() to earlier place in blkfront_resume().
The 'resubmit' is not changed and still in blkfront_recover().

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

crypto_alloc_hash returns an ERR_PTR(), not NULL.
Also reset peer_integrity_tfm to NULL, to not call crypto_free_hash()
on an errno in the cleanup path.

For larger devices, the array of bitmap page pointers can grow very
large (8000 pointers per TB of storage).
For each activity log transaction, we need to flush the associated
bitmap pages to stable storage. Currently, we just "mark" the respective
pages while setting up the transaction, then tell the bitmap code to
write out all marked pages, but skip unchanged pages.
But one such transaction can affect only a small number of bitmap pages,
there is no need to scan the full array of several (ten-)thousand
page pointers to find the few marked ones.
Instead, remember the index numbers of the few affected pages,
and later only re-check those to skip duplicates and unchanged ones.
