We don't need to call zram_meta_free, zcomp_destroy and zs_free
under init_lock. What we need to prevent race with init_lock
in reset is setting NULL into zram->meta (ie, init_done).
This patch does it.

The zram->stat handling should be procted by init_lock.
Otherwise, user could see stale value from the stat.

I don't think it's stable material. The race is rare in real practice
and this stale stat value read is not a critical.

On a side note, when zram->meta replaced init_done, no comment was
added in zram structure to explain that. Things could be made more
explicit.

I'm not so sure about moving zcomp destruction. if we would have detached it
from zram, then yes. otherwise, think of zram ->destoy vs ->init race.

suppose,
CPU1 waits for down_write() init lock in disksize_store() with new comp already allocated;
CPU0 detaches ->meta and releases write init lock;
CPU1 grabs the lock and does zram->comp = comp;
CPU0 reaches the point of zcomp_destroy(zram->comp);


I'd probably prefer to keep zcomp destruction on its current place. I
see a little real value in introducing zcomp detaching and moving
destruction out of init_lock.

I'm not so sure about moving zcomp destruction. if we would have detached it
from zram, then yes. otherwise, think of zram ->destoy vs ->init race.

suppose,
CPU1 waits for down_write() init lock in disksize_store() with new comp already allocated;
CPU0 detaches ->meta and releases write init lock;
CPU1 grabs the lock and does zram->comp = comp;
CPU0 reaches the point of zcomp_destroy(zram->comp);


I'd probably prefer to keep zcomp destruction on its current place. I
see a little real value in introducing zcomp detaching and moving
destruction out of init_lock.

I don't see your point: this patch does not call
zcomp_destroy(zram->comp) anymore, but zram_destroy(comp), where comp is
the old zram->comp.

oh... yes. sorry! my bad.



anyway, on a second thought, do we even want to destoy meta out of init_lock?

I mean, it will let you init new device quicker. but... assume, you have
30G zram (or any other bad-enough number). on CPU0 you reset device -- iterate
over 30G meta->table, etc. out of init_lock.
on CPU1 you concurrently re-init device and request again 30G.

how bad that can be?



diskstore called on already initialised device is also not so perfect.
we first will try to allocate ->meta (vmalloc pages for another 30G),
then allocate comp, then down_write() init lock to find out that device
is initialised and we need to release allocated memory.



may be we better keep ->meta destruction under init_lock and additionally
move ->meta and ->comp allocation under init_lock in disksize_store()?

like the following one:

oh... yes. sorry! my bad.



anyway, on a second thought, do we even want to destoy meta out of init_lock?

I mean, it will let you init new device quicker. but... assume, you have
30G zram (or any other bad-enough number). on CPU0 you reset device -- iterate
over 30G meta->table, etc. out of init_lock.
on CPU1 you concurrently re-init device and request again 30G.

how bad that can be?



diskstore called on already initialised device is also not so perfect.
we first will try to allocate ->meta (vmalloc pages for another 30G),
then allocate comp, then down_write() init lock to find out that device
is initialised and we need to release allocated memory.



may be we better keep ->meta destruction under init_lock and additionally
move ->meta and ->comp allocation under init_lock in disksize_store()?

like the following one:

I changed from zram_attr_##name##_show to name##_show in commit:
fcf1bce zram: use DEVICE_ATTR_[RW|RO|WO] to define zram sys device attribute

I just want to keep the name consistent with others, like
disksize_show(), initstate_show().

The init_lock is really troublesome. We can't do call zram_meta_alloc
under init_lock due to lockdep report. Please keep in mind.
The zram_rw_page is one of the function under reclaim path and hold it
as read_lock while here holds it as write_lock.
It's a false positive so that we might could make shut lockdep up
by annotation but I don't want it but want to work with lockdep rather
than disable. As well, there are other pathes to use init_lock to
protect other data where would be victims of lockdep.

I didn't tell the motivation of this patch because it made you busy
guys wasted. Let me tell it now. It was another lockdep report by
kmem_cache_destroy for zsmalloc compaction about init_lock. That's why
the patchset was one of the patch in compaction.

Yes, the ideal is to remove horrible init_lock of zram in this phase and
make code more simple and clear but I don't want to stuck zsmalloc
compaction by the work. Having said that, I feel it's time to revisit
to remove init_lock.
At least, I will think over to find a solution to kill init_lock.

Thanks!

This patch has two goals.

1. Avoid unnecessary lock
2. Prepare init_lock lockdep splot with upcoming zsmalloc compaction.

The compaction work doesn't come yet in mainline so I thought I don't
need to tell about 2 so if it become merging first by just 1's reason
before compaction work, everyone would happy without wasting the time
to look into lockdep splat.

Anyway, I will send an idea to remove init_lock in rw path.
Thanks!

Hello guys,

How about this?

It's based on Ganesh's patch.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/24/50

>From afda9fd2f6c40dd0745d8a6babe78c5cbdceddf5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>

Subject: [RFC] zram: remove init_lock in zram_make_request

Admin could reset zram during I/O operation going on so we have
used zram->init_lock as read-side lock in I/O path to prevent
sudden zram meta freeing.

However, the init_lock is really troublesome.
We can't do call zram_meta_alloc under init_lock due to lockdep splat
because zram_rw_page is one of the function under reclaim path and
hold it as read_lock while other places in process context hold it
as write_lock. So, we have used allocation out of the lock to avoid
lockdep warn but it's not good for readability and fainally, I met
another lockdep splat between init_lock and cpu_hotpulug from
kmem_cache_destroy during wokring zsmalloc compaction. :(

Yes, the ideal is to remove horrible init_lock of zram in rw path.
This patch removes it in rw path and instead, put init_done bool
variable to check initialization done with smp_[wmb|rmb] and
srcu_[un]read_lock to prevent sudden zram meta freeing
during I/O operation.

hm, you probably meant this one https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/23/406


at glance this makes things a bit more complicated, so I need to think more.

->init_done returns back :)
can we rely on write ->meta; wmb; --- rmb; read ->meta?

how much performance do we lose on barriers?

missing wmb?

I think we also better put comments after every wmb/rmb. like

	smp_wmb(); /* pairs with rmb() in foo() */

->init_done returns back :)
can we rely on write ->meta; wmb; --- rmb; read ->meta?

how much performance do we lose on barriers?

missing wmb?

I think we also better put comments after every wmb/rmb. like

	smp_wmb(); /* pairs with rmb() in foo() */

I decided we don't need it. Right? (ie, double check)

I already put the comment in other smp_rmb/wmb.
If it's not what you want, please suggest me. :)

I already put the comment in other smp_rmb/wmb.
If it's not what you want, please suggest me. :)

they are fine. it was a minor nitpick.

well, just theoretical.
forbid concurrent initialization until we completely rollback.

they are fine. it was a minor nitpick.

well, just theoretical.
forbid concurrent initialization until we completely rollback.

Now that I think about it, it's impossible with zram->meta because
we need to nullify it before call_srcu but pre-existing SRCU read-side
critical sections can access zram->meta.
Anyway, introducing a new variable should be not a party-pooper.

Another idea is to use kick_all_cpus_sync, not srcu.
With that, we don't need to add more instruction in rw path.
I will try it.

It might but as it is, we have allocated meta out of the lock.
if it turns out real problem, it's easy to fix it byby this work
(ie, we could alloc/free meta under init_lock).
IOW, it should be another patch so I don't want to take care of it
in this work.

Now that I think about it, it's impossible with zram->meta because
we need to nullify it before call_srcu but pre-existing SRCU read-side
critical sections can access zram->meta.
Anyway, introducing a new variable should be not a party-pooper.

Another idea is to use kick_all_cpus_sync, not srcu.
With that, we don't need to add more instruction in rw path.
I will try it.

It might but as it is, we have allocated meta out of the lock.
if it turns out real problem, it's easy to fix it byby this work
(ie, we could alloc/free meta under init_lock).
IOW, it should be another patch so I don't want to take care of it
in this work.

Subject: [PATCH] zram: remove init_lock in zram_make_request

Admin could reset zram during I/O operation going on so we have
used zram->init_lock as read-side lock in I/O path to prevent
sudden zram meta freeing.

However, the init_lock is really troublesome.
We can't do call zram_meta_alloc under init_lock due to lockdep splat
because zram_rw_page is one of the function under reclaim path and
hold it as read_lock while other places in process context hold it
as write_lock. So, we have used allocation out of the lock to avoid
lockdep warn but it's not good for readability and finally, I met
another lockdep splat between init_lock and cpu_hotpulug from
kmem_cache_destroy during wokring zsmalloc compaction. :(

Yes, the ideal is to remove horrible init_lock of zram in rw path.
This patch removes it in rw path and instead, use kick_all_cpus_sync
and a bool init_done variable to check initialization done with
smp_[wmb|rmb].

Upon kick_all_cpus_sync returns, any CPU cannot access zram meta
any more due to init_done in zram_make_request so it's safe to
free meta. So, finally, we avoids init_lock in reclaim context
so we are free for deadlock.

It just calls smp_call_funcion which is used by a lot places
by arch and drivers by on_each_cpu and I don't think resetting

first, how about
	meta = zram->meta;
	zram->meta = NULL;
	kick_all_cpus_sync();

	zram_meta_free(meta);
	zcomp_destroy(zram->comp);
	..


second,
after kick_all_cpus_sync() new RW operations will see false init_done().
bdev->bd_holders protects from resetting device which has read/write
operation ongoing on the onther CPU.

I need to refresh on how ->bd_holders actually incremented/decremented.
can the following race condition take a place?

	CPU0					CPU1
reset_store()
bdev->bd_holders == false
					zram_make_request
						-rm- down_read(&zram->init_lock);
					init_done(zram) == true
zram_reset_device()			valid_io_request()
					__zram_make_request
down_write(&zram->init_lock);		zram_bvec_rw
[..]
set_capacity(zram->disk, 0);
zram->init_done = false;
kick_all_cpus_sync();			zram_bvec_write or zram_bvec_read()
zram_meta_free(zram->meta);		
zcomp_destroy(zram->comp);		zcomp_compress() or zcomp_decompress()

I like it better.

so now we can
	smp_rmb();
	return zram->meta != NULL;

right?

first, how about
	meta = zram->meta;
	zram->meta = NULL;
	kick_all_cpus_sync();

	zram_meta_free(meta);
	zcomp_destroy(zram->comp);
	..


second,
after kick_all_cpus_sync() new RW operations will see false init_done().
bdev->bd_holders protects from resetting device which has read/write
operation ongoing on the onther CPU.

I need to refresh on how ->bd_holders actually incremented/decremented.
can the following race condition take a place?

	CPU0					CPU1
reset_store()
bdev->bd_holders == false
					zram_make_request
						-rm- down_read(&zram->init_lock);
					init_done(zram) == true
zram_reset_device()			valid_io_request()
					__zram_make_request
down_write(&zram->init_lock);		zram_bvec_rw
[..]
set_capacity(zram->disk, 0);
zram->init_done = false;
kick_all_cpus_sync();			zram_bvec_write or zram_bvec_read()
zram_meta_free(zram->meta);		
zcomp_destroy(zram->comp);		zcomp_compress() or zcomp_decompress()

kick_all_cpus_sync doesn't work for our case, unfortunately.
So, I want to go with srcu. Do you agree? or another suggestion?

It's one I should separate as another patch but I didn't in this RFC.
Just want to say that.

It's one I should separate as another patch but I didn't in this RFC.

Another idea is to introduce atomic refcount on zram for meta's lifetime management
so that rw path should get a ref for right before using the meta and put it on done.
If the refcount is negative, anyone shouldn't go with it.

However, I guess we can do it simple and more scalable with srcu rather than
introducing new atomic count. ;-)

Sergey, the data is consistent for repeated work?

I tested it with dd on /dev/zram0 without any FS on my KVM
and I cannot see any measureable performance gap.
Hmm, I will try it on real machine.
