[RFC PATCH v2 00/10] Add configurable block device LED triggers

[RFC PATCH v2 00/10] Add configurable block device LED triggers

[Ian Pilcher]

This is a significant rewrite of the patchset that I originally posted
back on 28 July.  It incorporates almost all of the suggestions that I
received as feedback to my original patchset (largely because I was
finally able to wrap my head around how complex LED triggers work).

One thing that has not changed is that associations between block
devices and LEDs are still set via an attribute on the device, rather
than the LED.  This is much simpler, as the device attribute only has
to handle a single value (the name of the associated LED), rather than
potentially handling multiple device names.

More importantly, it avoids the need to iterate through all of the
block devices on the system, searching by name.  This was proposed
fairly recently, and the reaction was not positive.[1][2]

I have modeled the interface for the /sys/block/<DEVICE>/led
attribute on the sysfs interface used for selecting a trigger.  All
available LEDs (all LEDs associated with the blkdev trigger) are
shown when the attribute is read, with the currently selected LED
enclosed in square brackets ([]).

As before, this is all very new to me (particularly the RCU stuff), so
I welcome feedback.

Thanks!

Changes from the original patchset:

* Use a single complex LED trigger ("blkdev"), rather than multiple
  user-defined triggers.

* Configurable blink time and interval for each LED:

    /sys/class/leds/<LED>/blink_{on,off}

* Associated block devices linked from LED subdirectory:

    /sys/class/leds/<LED>/block_devices

  (Avoids violating the "one value per entry" sysfs rule.)

* Device-LED associations set via /sys/block/<DEVICE>/led

* Document all sysfs attributes in Documentation/ABI/testing (but also kept
  the overview doc)

* Removed unnecessary [un]likely macros

* Reduced number of "user error" log messages and changed level to INFO

* More detailed commit messages

* Add Kconfig option in final commit

* Use RCU-protected pointer (rather than mutex)

* No in-kernel APIs for now

+Block Device (blkdev) LED Trigger
+=================================
+
+Available when ``CONFIG_BLK_LED_TRIGGERS=y``.
+
+See also:
+
+* ``Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-led-trigger-blkdev``
+* ``Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-block`` (``/sys/block/<disk>/led``)
+
+.. note::
+	The examples below use ``<LED>`` to refer to the name of a
+	system-specific LED.  If no suitable LED is available on a test
+	system (in a virtual machine, for example), it is possible to
+	use a userspace LED (``Documentation/leds/uleds.rst``).
+
+Associate the LED with the ``blkdev`` LED trigger::
+
+	# echo blkdev > /sys/class/leds/<LED>/trigger
+
+	# cat /sys/class/leds/<LED>/trigger
+	... kbd-ctrlrlock [blkdev] disk-activity ...
+
+Note that the ``blink_on`` and ``blink_off`` attributes have been added to the
+LED, along with the ``block_devices`` subdirectory.
+
+The LED is now available for association with block devices::
+
+	# cat /sys/block/sda/led
+	[none] <LED>
+
+Associate the LED with the block device::
+
+	# echo <LED> > /sys/block/sda/led
+
+	# cat /sys/block/sda/led
+	none [<LED>]
+
+Reads and write activity on the device should cause the LED to blink.  The
+duration of each blink (in milliseconds) can be adjusted by setting
+``/sys/class/leds/<LED>/blink_on``, and the minimum delay between blinks can
+be set via ``/sys/class/leds/<LED>/blink_off``.
+
+Associate a second device with the LED::
+
+	# echo <LED> > /sys/block/sdb/led
+
+	# cat /sys/block/sdb/led
+	none [<LED>]
+
+Note that both block devices are linked from the LED's ``block_devices``
+subdirectory::
+
+	# ls /sys/class/leds/<LED>/block_devices
+	sda sdb
+
+Other notes:
+
+* Many types of block devices work with this trigger, including:
+
+  * SCSI (including SATA and USB) hard disk drives and SSDs
+  * SCSI (including SATA and USB) optical drives
+  * SD cards
+  * loopback block devices (``/dev/loop*``)
+
+* NVMe SSDs and most virtual block devices can be associated with LEDs, but
+  they will produce little or no LED activity.
+
+* Multiple LEDs can be associated with the ``blkdev`` trigger; different block
+  devices can be associated with different LEDs.
+
+* This trigger causes associated LED(s) to blink (per the LED's ``blink_on``
+  and ``blink_off`` attributes) when a request is sent to an associated
+  block device's low-level driver.  It does not track the duration (or
+  result) of requests further.  Thus, it provides an approximate visual
+  indication of device activity, not an exact measurement.

I have to agree with Marek / Pali -- this is very strange interface.

[RFC PATCH v2 05/10] block: Add block device sysfs attribute to set/clear/show LED

[Ian Pilcher]

Add show & store functions in blk-ledtrig.c (attributes defined in genhd.c)

Show function shows all available LEDs (LEDs associated with blkdev trigger);
currently associated LED is shown in square brackets ([])

Store function accepts either all whitespace or "none" to clear LED

Do you mean kernel-doc comments?  If so, they're not supposed to be, as
the functions are not exported.

[RFC PATCH v2 06/10] block: Add activate and deactivate functions for block device LED trigger

[Ian Pilcher]

Set up activated LED:

  * Allocate per-LED data structure
  * Add LED to list of LEDs associated with blkdev trigger
  * Create block_devices subdirectory for links to associated devices

Clean up deactivated LED:

  * Clear LED of any associated devices
  * Remove from LED from blkdev trigger list
  * Remove block_devices subdirectory
  * Wait for any blinks using LED to complete (synchronize_rcu())
  * Free per-LED structure

Hello Ian,

thank you for your proposal. Some comments below:

It may be simpler, but it is in contrast to how the netdev trigger
works, which already is in upstream for many years. I really think we
should try to have similar sysfs ABIs here. (I understand that the
netdev trigger is currently unable to handle multiple network
interfaces - but it is possible to extend it so.)

I think it is reasonable to be able to set something like this:
  led0 : blink on activity on any of [sda, sdb, sdc]
  led1 : blink on activity on sda
  led2 : blink on activity on sdb
  led3 : blink on activity on sdc

If I am reading your code correctly, it looks that only one LED can be
configured for a block device. Is this true? If so, then the above
configuration cannot be set.

Also you are blinking the LED on any request to the block device. I
would rather expect to be able to set the LED to blink on read and on
write. (And possibly on other functions, like discard, or critical
temperature, or error, ...) I would like to know what other people
think about this.

Hello!

HP EliteBook laptops had dedicated LED for some kind of error and
encryption indication. And there is kernel acpi/wmi driver which can
control this LED. I do not know if recent HP laptops still have these
LEDs, but I would suggest to design API in a way that would allow to use
these dedicated LEDs for their original "vendor" purpose.

I'm mentioning it just because this functionality and design is already
on existing production mainstream laptops, and not something imaginary.

If Linux distributions are still cooperating with laptop vendors and
doing "official" Linux preloads then they may be interested in having
"native" LED functionality support in kernel.

I'm not unalterably opposed to the idea, but I don't currently see a way
to do that without resolving block devices (struct gendisk) by name, and
that seems to be a no-no.

If you (or anyone else) has a suggestion on how to get around this
obstacle, I'd be willing to give it a shot.

You're correct that it's not possible with the current code.  Multiple
devices can be associated to with a single LED, but there's not
currently a way to drive more than 1 LED from a single device.  This
is something that could be changed.

I wanted to keep things as simple as possible for now.  I don't think
that there's any particular reason that separated LEDs couldn't be
configured for read and write requests.  (It looks like it should be
pretty easy to distinguish reads vs writes in a struct request.)

My feeling is that things like temperature, errors, etc. are better
monitored from user space, as they tend to require actively querying
the drive.

Like you, I'm interested in knowing if there is actually hardware out
there that has separate read/write LEDs.

All in all, I feel like I should be able to implement almost everything
that you've suggested, *if* I can figure out the block device lookup
issue, but I really don't have any ideas on that.

Thanks for your patience and feedback!

So a name like "sda1" is not viable? Why? What about "MAJOR:MINOR"?

I confess that I am not very familiar with internal blkdev API.

Quick look reveals that there is a struct block_device, containing a
member bd_disk, which is a pointer to struct gendisk.

What is the relationship between these two? Can there be a block device
without a gendisk, for example?

It's mainly a matter of symbol visibility.  See this thread from a few
months ago:

Now ... my code currently lives in block/, so there isn't actually
anything technically preventing it from iterating through the block
devices.

The reactions to Enzo's patch (which you can see in that thread) make me
think that anything that iterates through all block devices is likely to
be rejected, but maybe I'm reading too much into it.


Greg / Christoph -

(As you were the people who expressed disapproval of Enzo's patch to
export block_class and disk_type ...)

Can you weigh in on the acceptability of iterating through the block
devices (searching by name) from LED trigger code within the block
subsystem (i.e. no new symbols would need to be exported)?

This would allow the trigger to implement the sysfs API that Marek and
Pavel want.

Thanks!

It's mainly a matter of symbol visibility.  See this thread from a few

Hi Greg,

Can't we use blkdev_get_by_path() (or blk_lookup_devt() with
blkdev_get_by_dev())?
This would open the block device and return a struct block_device *.
When the LED trigger is disabled, it would also have to release the
device.

But what about when the device is removed from the system first?  Be
careful about that...

Anyway, sure, try those functions, I really do not know, all I
originally complained about was those exports which did not need to be
exported.

Sounds good.  I'll work something up.  (I'm actually thinking that
class_find_device() may be the best way to go, as it grabs a reference
to the device.)

There should not be anything "odd" about block devices here, just do
whatever all other LED drivers do when referencing a device.

AFAIK, the only LED trigger that does anything similar is the netdev
trigger.  It uses dev_get_by_name(), which is specific to network
devices.

The block subsystem doesn't appear to have any similar API, which is
why Enzo submitted his patch to export block_class and disk_type back
in April[1], when he wanted to do something similar.

I'm basically bypassing the need to export the symbols, because my
trigger code is actually in the block subsystem, rather than the LEDs
subsystem.

I think the main issue with this series is that it adds a shitload of
code and a hook in the absolute I/O fastpath for fricking blinkenlights.
I don't think it is even worth wasting time on something this ridiculous.

That's why I think we should do this the way the netdev trigger does.
Periodically reading block_device's stats, and if they are greater,
blink the LED.
