[PATCHSET] blkcg: kill policy node and blkg->dev

[PATCHSET] blkcg: kill policy node and blkg->dev

[Tejun Heo]

Hello, guys.

This is the first of three (maybe four) patchset series trying to
cleanup block cgroup API.

<rant>
The current state of blkcg API is extremely sad.  From the first
glance, it looks as though it's built with some modular design in mind
with policy registration and all but the whole thing is one giant
unholy spaghetti mess which renders the phrase "layer violation"
meaningless as it's unclear whether it exists at all from the
beginning.

I've been looking at the code for three weeks now.  I've done a lot of
code cleanups all around the kernel and seen a lot of scary/messy
stuff, but blkcg takes the worst spot without any shred of doubt.  We
really shouldn't have code like this in the kernel.
</rant>

Alright, I just needed to get that out of my system.  We all do a lot
of horrible things.  I know I've been and still am, so let's just
concentrate on getting it better from here on.

blk-cgroup, blk-throttle and cfq-iosched are pretty tightly tangled
and untangling requires seemingly unrelated changes and addition of
some transitional stuff.  Some are in this patchset but they'll be
more prominent in the second patchset.  With that said, this patchset
concentrates on removing blkio_policy_node and blkio_group->dev.

blkio_policy_node carries configuration per cgroup-request_queue
association separately from the matching blkio_group.  The goal seems
to be allowing configuration of missing devices and retaining
configuration across hot unplug/plug cycles.  Such behavior is very
different from existing conventions, misleading and unnecessary.  This
patchset moves configuration to blkio_group and removes
blkio_policy_node.

blkg->dev removal is much simpler.  blkg->dev is used to print out
device number when printing out per-device configurations or
statistics.  The device name can be easily determined by following the
associated request_queue from blkg instead.

This patchset contains the following 12 patches.

  0001-blkcg-obtaining-blkg-should-be-enclosed-inside-rcu_r.patch
  0002-cfq-don-t-register-propio-policy-if-CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP.patch
  0003-elevator-clear-auxiliary-data-earlier-during-elevato.patch
  0004-elevator-make-elevator_init_fn-return-0-errno.patch
  0005-blkcg-update-blkg-get-functions-take-blkio_cgroup-as.patch
  0006-blkcg-use-q-and-plid-instead-of-opaque-void-for-blki.patch
  0007-blkcg-add-blkio_policy-array-and-allow-one-policy-pe.patch
  0008-blkcg-use-the-usual-get-blkg-path-for-root-blkio_gro.patch
  0009-blkcg-factor-out-blkio_group-creation.patch
  0010-blkcg-don-t-allow-or-retain-configuration-of-missing.patch
  0011-blkcg-kill-blkio_policy_node.patch
  0012-blkcg-kill-the-mind-bending-blkg-dev.patch

0001 is rcu locking fix.  Applying to mainline as fix is probably a
good idea.

0002 is misc cfq prep.

0003-0004 update elevator.  Elevator switch behavior is changed once
more to simplify elevator init/exit paths.

0005-0009 prepare blkcg for further changes.  Two policy operations
and new one policy per policy ID restriction are added.  All will be
removed as cleanup progresses further.

0010-0011 move blkcg configuration into blkg and drop policy node.

0012 drops blkg->dev.

This patchset is on top of linus#master (4ba3069fea "Merge branch
'for-next' of git://../nab/target-pending") and available in the
following git branch.

[PATCH 01/12] blkcg: obtaining blkg should be enclosed inside rcu_read_lock()

[Tejun Heo]

When looking up or creating blkg's, both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched
drops rcu_read_lock() right after lookup is complete.  This isn't
safe.  Refcnt isn't incremented at that point and rcu lock is the only
thing holding the blkg.  It shouldn't be dropped until after refcnt is
incremented by the caller.

Update throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg() such that they are called
and return under rcu_read_lock() and let their callers manage rcu
locking appropriately.

[PATCH 02/12] cfq: don't register propio policy if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED

[Tejun Heo]

cfq has been registering zeroed blkio_poilcy_cfq if CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED
is disabled.  This fortunately doesn't collide with blk-throtl as
BLKIO_POLICY_PROP is zero but is unnecessary and risky.  Just don't
register it if not enabled.

[PATCH 03/12] elevator: clear auxiliary data earlier during elevator switch

[Tejun Heo]

Elevator switch tries hard to keep as much as context until new
elevator is ready so that it can revert to the original state if
initializing the new elevator fails for some reason.  Unfortunately,
with more auxiliary contexts to manage, this makes elevator init and
exit paths too complex and fragile.

This patch makes elevator_switch() unregister the current elevator and
flush icq's before start initializing the new one.  As we still keep
the old elevator itself, the only difference is that we lose icq's on
rare occassions of switching failure, which isn't critical at all.

Note that this makes explicit elevator parameter to
elevator_init_queue() and __elv_register_queue() unnecessary as they
always can use the current elevator.

This patch enables block cgroup cleanups.

[PATCH 04/12] elevator: make elevator_init_fn() return 0/-errno

[Tejun Heo]

elevator_ops->elevator_init_fn() has a weird return value.  It returns
a void * which the caller should assign to q->elevator->elevator_data
and %NULL return denotes init failure.

Update such that it returns integer 0/-errno and sets elevator_data
directly as necessary.

This makes the interface more conventional and eases further cleanup.

[PATCH 05/12] blkcg: update blkg get functions take blkio_cgroup as parameter

[Tejun Heo]

In both blkg get functions - throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg(),
instead of obtaining blkcg of %current explicitly, let the caller
specify the blkcg to use as parameter and make both functions hold on
to the blkcg.

This is part of block cgroup interface cleanup and will help making
blkcg API more modular.

[PATCH 06/12] blkcg: use q and plid instead of opaque void * for blkio_group association

[Tejun Heo]

blkgio_group is association between a block cgroup and a queue for a
given policy.  Using opaque void * for association makes things
confusing and hinders factoring of common code.  Use request_queue *
and, if necessary, policy id instead.

This will help block cgroup API cleanup.

[PATCH 07/12] blkcg: add blkio_policy[] array and allow one policy per policy ID

[Tejun Heo]

Block cgroup policies are maintained in a linked list and,
theoretically, multiple policies sharing the same policy ID are
allowed.

This patch temporarily restricts one policy per plid and adds
blkio_policy[] array which indexes registered policy types by plid.
Both the restriction and blkio_policy[] array are transitional and
will be removed once API cleanup is complete.

[PATCH 08/12] blkcg: use the usual get blkg path for root blkio_group

[Tejun Heo]

For root blkg, blk_throtl_init() was using throtl_alloc_tg()
explicitly and cfq_init_queue() was manually initializing embedded
cfqd->root_group, adding unnecessarily different code paths to blkg
handling.

Make both use the usual blkio_group get functions - throtl_get_tg()
and cfq_get_cfqg() - for the root blkio_group too.  Note that
blk_throtl_init() callsite is pushed downwards in
blk_alloc_queue_node() so that @q is sufficiently initialized for
throtl_get_tg().

This simplifies root blkg handling noticeably for cfq and will allow
further modularization of blkcg API.

[PATCH 09/12] blkcg: factor out blkio_group creation

[Tejun Heo]

Currently both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched implement their own
blkio_group creation code in throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg().  This
patch factors out the common code.

* New plkio_policy_ops methods blkio_alloc_group_fn() and
  blkio_link_group_fn added.  Both are transitional and will be
  removed once the blkg management code is fully moved into
  blk-cgroup.c.

* blkio_alloc_group_fn() allocates policy-specific blkg which is
  usually a larger data structure with blkg as the first entry and
  intiailizes it.  Note that initialization of blkg proper, including
  percpu stats, is responsibility of blk-cgroup proper.

  Note that default config (weight, bps...) initialization is done
  from this method; otherwise, we end up violating locking order
  between blkcg and q locks via blkcg_get_CONF() functions.

* blkio_link_group_fn() is called under queue_lock and responsible for
  linking the blkg to the queue.  blkcg side is handled by blk-cgroup
  proper.

* The common blkg creation function is named blkg_lookup_create() and
  blkiocg_lookup_group() is renamed to blkg_lookup() for consistency.
  Also, throtl / cfq related functions are similarly [re]named for
  consistency.

* Code to fill cfqg->blkg.dev is open coded in cfq_find_alloc_queue().
  This is transitional and will be removed soon.

This simplifies blkcg policy implementations and enables further
cleanup.

[PATCH 10/12] blkcg: don't allow or retain configuration of missing devices

[Tejun Heo]

blkcg is very peculiar in that it allows setting and remembering
configurations for non-existent devices by maintaining separate data
structures for configuration.

This behavior is completely out of the usual norms and outright
confusing; furthermore, it uses dev_t number to match the
configuration to devices, which is unpredictable to begin with and
becomes completely unuseable if EXT_DEVT is fully used.

It is wholely unnecessary - we already have fully functional userland
mechanism to program devices being hotplugged which has full access to
device identification, connection topology and filesystem information.

Add a new struct blkio_group_conf which contains all blkcg
configurations to blkio_group and let blkio_group, which can be
created iff the associated device exists and is removed when the
associated device goes away, carry all configurations.

Note that, after this patch, all newly created blkg's will always have
the default configuration (unlimited for throttling and blkcg's weight
for propio).

This patch makes blkio_policy_node meaningless but doesn't remove it.
The next patch will.

[PATCH 11/12] blkcg: kill blkio_policy_node

[Tejun Heo]

Now that blkcg configuration lives in blkg's, blkio_policy_node is no
longer necessary.  Kill it.

blkio_policy_parse_and_set() now fails if invoked for missing device
and functions to print out configurations are updated to print from
blkg's.

cftype_blkg_same_policy() is dropped along with other policy functions
for consistency.  Its one line is open coded in the only user -
blkio_read_blkg_stats().

[PATCH 12/12] blkcg: kill the mind-bending blkg->dev

[Tejun Heo]

blkg->dev is dev_t recording the device number of the block device for
the associated request_queue.  It is used to identify the associated
block device when printing out configuration or stats.

This is redundant to begin with.  A blkg is an association between a
cgroup and a request_queue and it of course is possible to reach
request_queue from blkg and synchronization conventions are in place
for safe q dereferencing, so this shouldn't be necessary from the
beginning.  Furthermore, it's initialized by sscanf()ing the device
name of backing_dev_info.  The mind boggles.

Anyways, if blkg is visible under rcu lock, we *know* that the
associated request_queue hasn't gone away yet and its bdi is
registered and alive - blkg can't be created for request_queue which
hasn't been fully initialized and it can't go away before blkg is
removed.

Let stat and conf read functions get device name from
blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev and pass it down to printing functions
and remove blkg->dev.

Hi Tejun,

throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg() are called with queue lock held and
tg and cfqg are protected by queue lock as they can not go away as long
as queue lock is held.

If the group is already created, then caller accesses it under queue
lock and does not pass the pointer around. In case of throttling, caller
can use it under rcu also just to do update of stats (when there are
no rules).

I had used rcu read lock to access blkcg pointer here. That's why when
we are done with accessing blkcg, we drop rcu read lock and return back
to caller with group pointer, which is aready holding either a queue
lock or rcu read lock to protect returned group pointer.

So if we are protecting blkcg using rcu, then it should make sense to
take that lock inside throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg() respectively and
it should not be left to the caller?

Thanks
Vivek

kmalloc() does the same thing. returning pointer means success and null
means failure.

Also elevator initialization might not necessarily mean that you are
the active elevator. So cfq_init_queue() assuming that I am the active
elevator and setting up q->elevator->elevator_data sounds odd to me.

Personally, I liked previous interface better. But, let me read rest of
the patches and see how you have made use of it to do more cleanup.

This reference is to make sure that blkcg does not go away while we drop

Using void* allowed one to pass any type of data pointer as key by the
client.

I think passing cfq_data or throtl_data as key is better than passing
request queue as key.

- During elevator exit, it looks like there will be a small window where
  groups from both old elevator and new elevator will be present in blkcg
  list. Given the fact that there can be only one active elevator at a
  time, during cgroup removal call there is no way to reach a group's
  cfqd. One can only retrieve request queue reliably and can't rely
  on q->elevator->elevator_data.

  So passing cfq_data as key provides more flexibility and allows
  co-existence of two elevators more naturally without information loss.

I think this code will create problem where both old elevator group and
new elevator group is on blkcg list and upon cgroup removal one can not
rely that q->elevator->elevator_data will give us old elevator's cfqd.

Having said that, in practice we might never hit it as elevator init time
we only initialize and connect root group in blkcg list and one can not
delete root cgroup so above function is never called for root group.

But I think it is confusing so it is probably better to register cfq_data
or throtl_data as key instead of request queue.

Does this work if BLK_CGROUP=n?

I am trying to think that why did I keep allocating root cgroup statically
for CFQ. May be the reason was that this group was present even if
CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=n. There was other code which assumed a group to be
always present and I did not want to put more #ifdef.

Anyway, if it works well, with BLK_CGROUP=n, then it is fine.

Thanks

No, no matter whatever synchronization scheme is in use, the code is
seriously screwed up if it's doing something like,

	lock();
	a = lookup();
	unlock();
	return a;

You should *NEVER* be doing that.  It can't serve any purpose and is
misleading at best.  In this case, the right thing to do is dropping
the rcu read locking and using annotated rcu deferencing macros to
enforce q locked || rcu read locked.  I'll update the patch.

Thanks.

Yes, allocation functions usually do that.  elevator_init_fn() isn't
exactly one.  It could be but not necessarily so.  Look at the
elevator init wrapper in elevator.c.  We shouldn't need something like
that.

That was changed by the elvator switch sequence update earlier in this
series.

We need this change to use common blkg code for root blkg init.

Yeah, for now but later patch will make blkg's hold onto the

I think one of the reasons for not using blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev was
that there were still drivers where multiple gendisks were sharing the
request queue.

I guess ioc_lookup_icq() is doing something similar. We call it under
queue lock. Take rcu lock inside for sanity of radix tree and then 
release rcu lock and return icq.

Yeah, sure, at the cost of making everything opaque to blkcg core and
duplicating a lot of stuff in policies.  The sad part is that the
'flexibility' bought that way isn't even necessary if layering is done
right.  You're asking completely wrong questions and then coming up
with convoluted solutions somehow working around those silly problem
definitions.  Block cgroup core layer should do all blkg management
and policy implementations shouldn't be worrying about dereferencing
some stupid pointer while elevator is being switched.

Again, if I didn't botch up earlier elevator switch code, it shouldn't.

Yeap, it is.  We should be using rcu_dereference_check() there too.

I think I am missing something. IIUC, following is new elevator switch
sequence.

1. elv_quiesce_start
2. unregister old elevator
3. ioc_clear_queue
4. allocate new elevator
5. init new elevator
6. exit old elevator

So any groups on old elevator, will be cleaned up in step 6. So till step
5 these groups are still present on blkcg list. Now assume between step 5
and step 6, if a cgroup removal takes place and blkcg tries to call into
elevator to remove that group, will it not be accessing the wrong cfqd
in cfq_destroy_cfqg() (cfqd of new elevator instead of old elevator).

What am I missing?

Thanks
Vivek

Right, it's currently broken but it shouldn't be too difficult to fix.
Will update the patch.

I don't think you're missing anything.  The issue is moot as the
second patchset, which I'll probably post today, unifies blkg's so
that there's single blkg per cgroup - request_queue pair.

Hmmm... we can add code to shoot down blkg's along with ioc's while
preparing for elevator switch or just note the problem in the commit
message and explain the problem is transitional.  I'll see how complex
shooting down blkg's would be.

Thanks.

Hmmm... is that relevant?  The configurations / stats are per
cgroup-request_queue pair.  How does multiple genhd's sharing a queue
make any difference?  Also, the fill_dev_details functions were using
the same q->backing_dev_info to fill it in, so it's not like it was
using anything different.

I think we need blkg shootdown on elv switch whether blkg is unified
or not.  I'll update the patch.  Thanks for pointing it out.

You are right. Looks like it should not make any difference. Also looks
like bdi->dev points to first disk on the queue and ignores later ones.

int bdi_register(struct backing_dev_info *bdi, struct device *parent,
                const char *fmt, ...)
{       
        if (bdi->dev)   /* The driver needs to use separate queues per
device */
                return 0;
}

So if a queue is being shared by multiple disks, then any throttling rule
on the device will practically trated a rule on the queue and will be
effective on all the devices cumulatively. So sounds fine.

Thanks
Vivek

Tejun,

Why do we check for blkg->conf.weight=0 here. Even if a group already has
weight and if user has changed the cgroup weight later, that update should
be propogated to all the groups on all the queues.

Where do we assign default cgroup weight to a blkg upon creation? May be at
group create time, we just need to copy blkcg->weight to blkg.conf.weight.

Thanks
Vivek

Maybe I misread the code but if explicit per-device config exists,
cgroup-wide writes are ignored, no?  The original code searches for
matching pn and if it exists, continues without updating.

We don't.  blk->conf.weight is set only on explicit per-device
configuration.  It's gonna be removed eventually after config
definition and handling are moved into policies.

Ok. So blkg->conf.weight is set only for per device weights. For groups
using cgroup weight, I see that cfq inherits it during group creation.
Any updates to cgroup weight are sent only if per device weight is not
set. Previously we used to do this check by looking for policy node and
you are checking for blkg.weight. That clarifies it. Thank.

Thanks
