* [PATCH v7 0/6] BTT error clearing rework @ 2017-08-31 1:35 Vishal Verma 2017-08-31 1:35 ` [PATCH v7 1/6] btt: fix a missed NVDIMM_IO_ATOMIC case in the write path Vishal Verma ` (5 more replies) 0 siblings, 6 replies; 9+ messages in thread From: Vishal Verma @ 2017-08-31 1:35 UTC (permalink / raw) To: linux-nvdimm changes in v7: - There were cases where any problem while attempting to clear errors would result in the BTT thread doing IO to be locked in an infinite retry loop. Fix those conditions by detecting any error in clearing and bailing on that write. (Toshi, Dan). changes in v6: - Remove the refactoring patch where we move the namespace offset calculations to all call sites, instead add a helper for the final initial_offset calculation, and call it directly from btt_is_badblock changes in v5: - Add patch 6 that refactors initial_offset calculations, and fix a bug that caused error clearing to be missed in some cases (Toshi) (I have a unit test for this that is mostly ready, but it depends in a better error injection capability in nfit_test, so I will send it out once that is ready). Changes in v4: - move the deadlock fix to before enabling the BTT error clear paths (Dan) - No need for an error lock per freelist entry, just have one per arena (Dan) Changes in v3: - Change the dynamically allocated (during IO) zerobuf to the kernel's ZERO_PAGE for error clearing (patch 5) (Dan). - Move the NOIO fixes a level down into nvdimm_clear_poison since both btt and pmem poison clearing goes through that (Dan). Changes in v2: - Drop the ACPI allocation change patch. Instead use memalloc_noio_{save,restore} to set the GFP_NOIO flag around anything that can be expected to call into ACPI for clearing errors. (Rafael, Dan). Clearing errors or badblocks during a BTT write requires sending an ACPI DSM, which means potentially sleeping. Since a BTT IO happens in atomic context (preemption disabled, spinlocks may be held), we cannot perform error clearing in the course of an IO. Due to this error clearing for BTT IOs has hitherto been disabled. This series fixes these problems by moving the error clearing out of the atomic sections in the BTT. Also fix a potential deadlock that can occur while clearing errors from either BTT or pmem due to memory allocations in the IO path.

In reality this should not cause a problem, because map writes are to small for nsio_rw_bytes to attempt error clearing, but it should be fixed for posterity. Add a might_sleep() in the non-atomic section of nsio_rw_bytes so that things like the nfit unit tests, which don't actually sleep, can catch bugs like this.

* [PATCH v7 6/6] libnvdimm, btt: rework error clearing 2017-08-31 1:35 [PATCH v7 0/6] BTT error clearing rework Vishal Verma ` (4 preceding siblings ...) 2017-08-31 1:36 ` Vishal Verma @ 2017-08-31 1:36 ` Vishal Verma 2017-08-31 22:23 ` Dan Williams 5 siblings, 1 reply; 9+ messages in thread From: Vishal Verma @ 2017-08-31 1:36 UTC (permalink / raw) To: linux-nvdimm Clearing errors or badblocks during a BTT write requires sending an ACPI DSM, which means potentially sleeping. Since a BTT IO happens in atomic context (preemption disabled, spinlocks may be held), we cannot perform error clearing in the course of an IO. Due to this error clearing for BTT IOs has hitherto been disabled. In this patch we move error clearing out of the atomic section, and thus re-enable error clearing with BTTs. When we are about to add a block to the free list, we check if it was previously marked as an error, and if it was, we add it to the freelist, but also set a flag that says error clearing will be required. We then drop the lane (ending the atomic context), and send a zero buffer so that the error can be cleared. The error flag in the free list is protected by the nd 'lane', and is set only be a thread while it holds that lane. When the error is cleared, the flag is cleared, but while holding a mutex for that freelist index. When writing, we check for two things - 1/ If the freelist mutex is held or if the error flag is set. If so, this is an error block that is being (or about to be) cleared. 2/ If the block is a known badblock based on nsio->bb The second check is required because the BTT map error flag for a map entry only gets set when an error LBA is read. If we write to a new location that may not have the map error flag set, but still might be in the region's badblock list, we can trigger an EIO on the write, which is undesirable and completely avoidable.

Instead, what we need here is similar to what the buffer_io_error() helper does in fs/buffer.c. I.e. switch this to dev_err_ratelimited() so we know which device and include the namespace physical offset that remains busted. This can be a follow-on because there are other usages of WARN in btt.c that should be audited / converted to dev_WARN at a minimum, and potentially dev_err() if the failure is not due to a software problem. We might also want dev_err_ratelimited in the I/O path failure case, because the administrator should know that they are continuing to see ongoing error clearing failures. _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list Linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-nvdimm ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
