[RFC] cleanup bcache bio handling

[RFC] cleanup bcache bio handling

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi all,

this series cleans up various places where bcache is way too intimate
with bio internals.  This is intended as a baseline for the multi-page
biovec work, which requires some nasty workarounds for the existing
code.

Note that I do not have a bcache test setup, so this will require
some careful actual testing with whatever test cases are used for
bcache.

Also the new bio_reused helper should be useful at least for MD raid,
but that work is left for later.

[PATCH 1/6] block: add a bio_reuse helper

[Christoph Hellwig]

This abstracts out a way to reuse a bio without destroying the
data pointers.

[PATCH 2/6] bcache: use bio_reuse instead of bio_reinit where applicable

[Christoph Hellwig]

Use the bio_reuse helper instead of rebuilding the bio_vecs and
size for bios that get reused for the same data.

[PATCH 3/6] bcache: clean up bio reuse for struct moving_io

[Christoph Hellwig]

Instead of reinitializing the bio everytime we can call bio_reuse when
reusing it.  Also removes the remainder of the moving_init helper
to improve readability.

[Christoph Hellwig]

Instead of reinitializing the bio everytime we can call bio_reuse when
reusing it.  Also moves the private data initialization out of
dirty_init, which is renamed to suit the remaining functionality.

[PATCH 5/6] bcache: don't clone bio in bch_data_verify

[Christoph Hellwig]

We immediately overwrite the biovec array, so instead just allocate
a new bio and copy over the disk, setor and size.

[PATCH 6/6] bcache: use bio_add_page instead of open coded bio manipulation

[Christoph Hellwig]

Let bch_bio_alloc_pages and bch_bio_map set up the bio vec information
and bi_size.  This also means no additional bch_bio_map call with
a NULL argument is needed before bch_bio_alloc_pages.

Hi Christoph,

Thanks for the patches. I will setup a test environment to run bcache

It keeps bi_vcnt and bi_size intact in addition to bi_max_vecs/bi_io_vec
already kept by the existing bio_reset.

The befit is that you don't need to rebuild bi_vcnt, bio_io_vec and
bi_size when reusing the bio.

bi_size is not immutable though, it will usually be modified by drivers when you
submit a bio.

I see what you're trying to do, but your approach is busted given the way the
block layer works today. You'd have to save bio->bi_iter before submitting the
bio and restore it afterwards for it to work.

Strong nak on the patch series (except for the patch to not clone in
bch_data_verify, that patch looks fine).

Unless something has seriously changed with how multi-page bvecs work since I
started that code nothing in bcache should be broken by it - Ming, can you
confirm or deny if that's still correct?

It is true that bch_bio_map() will be suboptimal when multi page bvecs go in,
but it won't be broken. The way it's used now is really conflating two different
things, but where it's used for mapping a bio to a single buffer (i.e. not
before bio_alloc_pages) that can be switched to something that just creates a
single bvec.

Yes, the multi-page bvecs implementation didn't have big change, and
previously I run xfstests on bcache0, and no regression was observed.

Yes, multipage bvec shouldn't break any driver or fs.

It probably isn't broken, at least I didn't see assumptions of the same
number of segments.  However the current poking into the bio internals as
a bad idea for a couple of reasons.  First because it requires touching
bcache for any of these changes, second because it won't get merging of
pages into a single bio segment for bіos built by bch_bio_map or
bch_bio_alloc_pages, and third bcache is the last user of
bio_for_each_chunk_all in your branch, which I'd like to kill off to
keep the number of iterators down.

For bi_size, agreed this needs fixing.  bi_sector is always restored
already by the callers, and the remaining fields are zeroed by bio_reset,
which does the right thing.

This still shouldn't be a new helper. If the caller is restoring bi_sector they
can restore bi_size as well, and restoring only part of bi_iter should not be
encouraged as it's not safe in general - it is a quite reasonable thing to want
to restore a bio to the state it was pre submission (e.g. for bouncing) and what
you're doing is definitely _not_ safe in general.

Agreed about bio_for_each_chunk_all(), but I just looked at the patch that
introduces them and it looks to me like there's no need, they should just be
bio_for_each_segment_all().

Converting bch_bio_map() and bch_bio_alloc_pages() to bio_add_page() is fine by
me, but your patch series doesn't do any of those actual cleanups: your
description of the patch series does not actually match what it does.

Now we can't change the vector with bio_for_each_segment_all(), so
bio_for_each_chunk_all() has to be used. So looks it makes sense to use
bio_add_page() to remove bio_for_each_chunk_all().

For now I'd suggest we just open code bio_for_each_segment_all in bcache
as a first step to get the multipage bio vec work rolling.  The code
already pokes deep into bio internals, so having that iteration right
next to it isn't really an issue.  In the long run I'd still like to
see it cleaned up, though.
