2011-10-17xen/blkback: Fix two races in the handling of barrier requests.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-5/+5

2011-10-17loop: remove the incorrect write_begin/write_end shortcutChristoph Hellwig1-112/+23
Currently the loop device tries to call directly into write_begin/write_end instead of going through ->write if it can. This is a fairly nasty shortcut as write_begin and write_end are only callbacks for the generic write code and expect to be called with filesystem specific locks held. This code currently causes various issues for clustered filesystems as it doesn't take the required cluster locks, and it also causes issues for XFS as it doesn't properly lock against the swapext ioctl as called by the defragmentation tools. This in case causes data corruption if defragmentation hits a busy loop device in the wrong time window, as reported by RH QA. The reason why we have this shortcut is that it saves a data copy when doing a transformation on the loop device, which is the technical term for using cryptoloop (or an XOR transformation). Given that cryptoloop has been deprecated in favour of dm-crypt my opinion is that we should simply drop this shortcut instead of finding complicated ways to to introduce a formal interface for this shortcut.

2011-10-14xen/blkback: Check for proper operation.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-1/+1
The patch titled: "xen/blkback: Fix the inhibition to map pages when discarding sector ranges." had the right idea except that it used the wrong comparison operator. It had == instead of !=. This fixes the bug where all (except discard) operations would have been ignored. Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
2011-10-13xen/blkback: Fix the inhibition to map pages when discarding sector ranges.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-2/+1
The 'operation' parameters are the ones provided to the bio layer while the req->operation are the ones passed in between the backend and frontend. We used the wrong 'operation' value to squash the call to map pages when processing the discard operation resulting in an hypercall that did nothing. Lets guard against going in the mapping function by checking for the proper operation type. CC: Li Dongyang <lidongyang@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
2011-10-13xen/blkback: Report VBD_WSECT (wr_sect) properly.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-1/+1
We did not increment the amount of sectors written to disk b/c we tested for the == WRITE which is incorrect - as the operations are more of WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_ODIRECT. This patch fixes it by doing a & WRITE check.

2011-10-13xen/blkback: Support 'feature-barrier' aka old-style BARRIER requests.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk3-2/+58
We emulate the barrier requests by draining the outstanding bio's and then sending the WRITE_FLUSH command. To drain the I/Os we use the refcnt that is used during disconnect to wait for all the I/Os before disconnecting from the frontend. We latch on its value and if it reaches either the threshold for disconnect or when there are no more outstanding I/Os, then we have drained all I/Os.

2011-10-13xen-blkfront: If no barrier or flush is supported, use invalid operation.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-1/+3
Guard against issuing BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER or BLKIF_OP_FLUSH_CACHE by checking whether we successfully negotiated with the backend. The negotiation with the backend also sets the q->flush_flags which fortunately for us is also used when submitting an bio to us. If we don't support barriers or flushes it would be set to zero so we should never end up having to deal with REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA. However, other third party implementations of __make_request that might be stacked on top of us might not be so smart, so lets fix this up.

2011-10-13xen-blkback: use kzalloc() in favor of kmalloc()+memset()Jan Beulich1-4/+2
This fixes the problem of three of those four memset()-s having improper size arguments passed: Sizeof a pointer-typed expression returns the size of the pointer, not that of the pointed to data. It also reverts using kmalloc() instead of kzalloc() for the allocation of the pending grant handles array, as that array gets fully initialized in a subsequent loop.

2011-10-13xen-blkfront: fix a deadlock while handling discard responseLi Dongyang1-2/+0
When we get -EOPNOTSUPP response for a discard request, we will clear the discard flag on the request queue so we won't attempt to send discard requests to backend again, and this should be protected under rq->queue_lock. However, when we setup the request queue, we pass blkif_io_lock to blk_init_queue so rq->queue_lock is blkif_io_lock indeed, and this lock is already taken when we are in blkif_interrpt, so remove the spin_lock/spin_unlock when we clear the discard flag or we will end up with deadlock here Signed-off-by: Li Dongyang <lidongyang@novell.com> [v1: Updated description a bit and removed comment from source] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

2011-09-29xen: modify kernel mappings corresponding to granted pagesStefano Stabellini1-1/+1
If we want to use granted pages for AIO, changing the mappings of a user vma and the corresponding p2m is not enough, we also need to update the kernel mappings accordingly. Currently this is only needed for pages that are created for user usages through /dev/xen/gntdev. As in, pages that have been in use by the kernel and use the P2M will not need this special mapping. However there are no guarantees that in the future the kernel won't start accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage. In order to avoid the complexity of dealing with highmem, we allocated the pages lowmem. We issue a HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op right away in m2p_add_override and we remove the mappings using another HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op in m2p_remove_override. Considering that m2p_add_override and m2p_remove_override are called once per page we use multicalls and hypercall batching. Use the kmap_op pointer directly as argument to do the mapping as it is guaranteed to be present up until the unmapping is done. Before issuing any unmapping multicalls, we need to make sure that the mapping has already being done, because we need the kmap->handle to be set correctly.

2011-08-22xen-blkback: Don't disconnect backend until state switched to XenbusStateClosed.Joe Jin1-1/+1
When do block-attach/block-detach test with below steps, umount hangs in the guest. Furthermore shutdown ends up being stuck when umounting file-systems. 1. start guest. 2. attach new block device by xm block-attach in Dom0. 3. mount new disk in guest. 4. execute xm block-detach to detach the block device in dom0 until timeout 5. Any request to the disk will hung. Root cause: This issue is caused when setting backend device's state to 'XenbusStateClosing', which sends to the frontend the XenbusStateClosing notification. When frontend receives the notification it tries to release the disk in blkfront_closing(), but at that moment the disk is still in use by guest, so frontend refuses to close. Specifically it sets the disk state to XenbusStateClosing and sends the notification to backend - when backend receives the event, it disconnects the vbd from real device, and sets the vbd device state to XenbusStateClosing. The backend disconnects the real device/file, and any IO requests to the disk in guest will end up in ether, leaving disk DEAD and set to XenbusStateClosing. When the guest wants to disconnect the disk, umount will hang on blkif_release()->xlvbd_release_gendisk() as it is unable to send any IO to the disk, which prevents clean system shutdown. Solution: Don't disconnect backend until frontend state switched to XenbusStateClosed.

2011-08-19loop: add discard support for loop devicesLukas Czerner1-0/+54
This commit adds discard support for loop devices. Discard is usually supported by SSD and thinly provisioned devices as a method for reclaiming unused space. This is no different than trying to reclaim back space which is not used by the file system on the image, but it still occupies space on the host file system. We can do the reclamation on file system which does support hole punching. So when discard request gets to the loop driver we can translate that to punch a hole to the underlying file, hence reclaim the free space. This is very useful for trimming down the size of the image to only what is really used by the file system on that image. Fstrim may be used for that purpose. It has been tested on ext4, xfs and btrfs with the image file systems ext4, ext3, xfs and btrfs. ext4, or ext6 image on ext4 file system has some problems but it seems that ext4 punch hole implementation is somewhat flawed and it is unrelated to this commit. Also this is a very good method of validating file systems punch hole implementation. Note that when encryption is used, discard support is disabled, because using it might leak some information useful for possible attacker.
