[PATCH 0/2] block: null_blk: make fault-injection configurable via configfs

[Akinobu Mita]

This patch set makes null_blk driver-specific fault-injection dynamically
configurable per device via configfs.

Since the null_blk driver supports configuration such as device creation
via configfs, it is natural to configure fault-injection via configfs as
well.

Currently, only the debugfs interface is provided for dynamically
configuring fault-injection, so this introduces a compatible interface via
configfs.

[PATCH 1/2] fault-inject: allow configuration via configfs

[Akinobu Mita]

This provides a helper function to allow configuration of fault-injection
for configfs-based drivers.

The config items created by this function have the same interface as the
one created under debugfs by fault_create_debugfs_attr().

[PATCH 2/2] block: null_blk: make fault-injection dynamically configurable per device

[Akinobu Mita]

The null_blk driver has multiple driver-specific fault injection
mechanisms.  Each fault injection configuration can only be specified by a
module parameter and cannot be reconfigured without reloading the driver.
Also, each configuration is common to all devices and is initialized every
time a new device is added.

This change adds the following subdirectories for each null_blk device.

/sys/kernel/config/nullb/<disk>/timeout_inject
/sys/kernel/config/nullb/<disk>/requeue_inject
/sys/kernel/config/nullb/<disk>/init_hctx_fault_inject

Each fault injection attribute can be dynamically set per device by a
corresponding file in these directories.

Oh, nice.  Can you also update blktests to take advantage of this and
not require built-in null_blk for fault injection tests?

[PATCH blktests] don't require modular null_blk for fault-injection

[Akinobu Mita]

I'm trying to allow configuration of null_blk fault-injection via configfs.

This blktests change changes null_blk fault-injection settings to be
configured via configfs instead of module parameters.
This allows null_blk fault-injection tests to run even if the null_blk is
built-in the kernel and not built as a module.

However, to keep the scripts simple, we will skip testing if the null_blk
does not yet support configuring fault-injection via configfs.

Re: [PATCH blktests] don't require modular null_blk for fault-injection

Akinobu, thanks for the patch, and sorry for this slow response.

It's good that the three test case can run with built-in null_blk.

Hmm, it means that blktests coverage will be lost on older kernels without the
configfs support. Before this change, the test cases were not skipped on older
kernel with loadable null_blk. After this patch, the test cases will be skipped.

Can we cover both the new and old ways? When the null_blk set up with configfs
fails, we can fallback to the old way with module parameters.

For example, null_blk set up of block/014 can be like this:

	# Here, we fail 50% of I/Os.
	if ! _configure_null_blk faultb0 timeout_inject/probability=50 \
	     timeout_inject/times=-1 timeout_inject/verbose=0 power=1 \

			# Fall back to set up with module parameter. The format
			# is "<interval>,<probability>,<space>,<times>"
			if ! _init_null_blk timeout='1,50,0,-1'; then
				echo "Configuring null_blk failed"
				return 1;
			fi
		else
			SKIP_REASONS+=("requires fault injection via configfs or modular null_blk")

OK, I'll update the tests and give it a try.

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 4668c7a2940d134b
("fault-inject: allow configuration via configfs") in linux-next
(to be tagged soon as next-20140414).

noreply@ellerman.id.au reported build failures for e.g. m68k-allmodconfig
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/14911188/:

fault-inject.c:(.text+0x1ee): undefined reference to
`config_group_init_type_name'

This fails because FAULT_INJECTION=y but CONFIGFS_FS=m.

Oh, I just sent that build fix patch.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230415125705.180426-1-akinobu.mita@gmail.com/

Could you please check if this is the correct way to fix it?
