2020-01-26block: allow partitions on host aware zone devicesChristoph Hellwig
Host-aware SMR drives can be used with the commands to explicitly manage zone state, but they can also be used as normal disks. In the former case it makes perfect sense to allow partitions on them, in the latter it does not, just like for host managed devices. Add a check to add_partition to allow partitions on host aware devices, but give up any zone management capabilities in that case, which also catches the previously missed case of adding a partition vs just scanning it. Because sd can rescan the attribute at runtime it needs to check if a disk has partitions, for which a new helper is added to genhd.h.

2019-11-21block: add iostat counters for flush requestsKonstantin Khlebnikov
Requests that triggers flushing volatile writeback cache to disk (barriers) have significant effect to overall performance. Block layer has sophisticated engine for combining several flush requests into one. But there is no statistics for actual flushes executed by disk. Requests which trigger flushes usually are barriers - zero-size writes. This patch adds two iostat counters into /sys/class/block/$dev/stat and /proc/diskstats - count of completed flush requests and their total time.

2019-11-12block: Remove partition support for zoned block devicesDamien Le Moal
No known partitioning tool supports zoned block devices, especially the host managed flavor with strong sequential write constraints. Furthermore, there are also no known user nor use cases for partitioned zoned block devices. This patch removes partition device creation for zoned block devices, which allows simplifying the processing of zone commands for zoned block devices. A warning is added if a partition table is found on the device. For report zones operations no zone sector information remapping is necessary anymore, simplifying the code. Of note is that remapping of zone reports for DM targets is still necessary as done by dm_remap_zone_report(). Similarly, remaping of a zone reset bio is not necessary anymore. Testing for the applicability of the zone reset all request also becomes simpler and only needs to check that the number of sectors of the requested zone range is equal to the disk capacity.

2019-04-22block: fix use-after-free on gendiskYufen Yu
commit 2da78092dda "block: Fix dev_t minor allocation lifetime" specifically moved blk_free_devt(dev->devt) call to part_release() to avoid reallocating device number before the device is fully shutdown. However, it can cause use-after-free on gendisk in get_gendisk(). We use md device as example to show the race scenes: Process1 Worker Process2 md_free blkdev_open del_gendisk add delete_partition_work_fn() to wq __blkdev_get get_gendisk put_disk disk_release kfree(disk) find part from ext_devt_idr get_disk_and_module(disk) cause use after free delete_partition_work_fn put_device(part) part_release remove part from ext_devt_idr Before <devt, hd_struct pointer> is removed from ext_devt_idr by delete_partition_work_fn(), we can find the devt and then access gendisk by hd_struct pointer. But, if we access the gendisk after it have been freed, it can cause in use-after-freeon gendisk in get_gendisk(). We fix this by adding a new helper blk_invalidate_devt() in delete_partition() and del_gendisk(). It replaces hd_struct pointer in idr with value 'NULL', and deletes the entry from idr in part_release() as we do now. Thanks to Jan Kara for providing the solution and more clear comments for the code.

2018-12-10block: delete part_round_stats and switch to less precise countingMikulas Patocka
We want to convert to per-cpu in_flight counters. The function part_round_stats needs the in_flight counter every jiffy, it would be too costly to sum all the percpu variables every jiffy, so it must be deleted. part_round_stats is used to calculate two counters - time_in_queue and io_ticks. time_in_queue can be calculated without part_round_stats, by adding the duration of the I/O when the I/O ends (the value is almost as exact as the previously calculated value, except that time for in-progress I/Os is not counted). io_ticks can be approximated by increasing the value when I/O is started or ended and the jiffies value has changed. If the I/Os take less than a jiffy, the value is as exact as the previously calculated value. If the I/Os take more than a jiffy, io_ticks can drift behind the previously calculated value.

2018-09-21block: use nanosecond resolution for iostatOmar Sandoval
Klaus Kusche reported that the I/O busy time in /proc/diskstats was not updating properly on 4.18. This is because we started using ktime to track elapsed time, and we convert nanoseconds to jiffies when we update the partition counter. However, this gets rounded down, so any I/Os that take less than a jiffy are not accounted for. Previously in this case, the value of jiffies would sometimes increment while we were doing I/O, so at least some I/Os were accounted for. Let's convert the stats to use nanoseconds internally. We still report milliseconds as before, now more accurately than ever. The value is still truncated to 32 bits for backwards compatibility.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last couple days, but the whole set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. Change summary: - Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of namespace modes or state. This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error" requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus devices. - Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations. This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent memory support. - 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event. Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally, fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for -stable. - ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

2017-04-25Revert "block: use DAX for partition table reads"Dan Williams
commit d1a5f2b4d8a1 ("block: use DAX for partition table reads") was part of a stalled effort to allow dax mappings of block devices. Since then the device-dax mechanism has filled the role of dax-mapping static device ranges. Now that we are moving ->direct_access() from a block_device operation to a dax_inode operation we would need block devices to map and carry their own dax_inode reference. Unless / until we decide to revive dax mapping of raw block devices through the dax_inode scheme, there is no need to carry read_dax_sector(). Its removal in turn allows for the removal of bdev_direct_access() and should have been included in commit 223757016837 ("block_dev: remove DAX leftovers").

2017-04-21block: get rid of blk_integrity_revalidate()Ilya Dryomov
Commit 25520d55cdb6 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk") introduced blk_integrity_revalidate(), which seems to assume ownership of the stable pages flag and unilaterally clears it if no blk_integrity profile is registered: if (bi->profile) disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities |= BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES; else disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities &= ~BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES; It's called from revalidate_disk() and rescan_partitions(), making it impossible to enable stable pages for drivers that support partitions and don't use blk_integrity: while the call in revalidate_disk() can be trivially worked around (see zram, which doesn't support partitions and hence gets away with zram_revalidate_disk()), rescan_partitions() can be triggered from userspace at any time. This breaks rbd, where the ceph messenger is responsible for generating/verifying CRCs. Since blk_integrity_{un,}register() "must" be used for (un)registering the integrity profile with the block layer, move BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES setting there. This way drivers that call blk_integrity_register() and use integrity infrastructure won't interfere with drivers that don't but still want stable pages.

2016-12-01block: Check partition alignment on zoned block devicesDamien Le Moal
Both blkdev_report_zones and blkdev_reset_zones can operate on a partition of a zoned block device. However, the first and last zones reported for a partition make sense only if the partition start sector and size are aligned on the device zone size. The same applies for zone reset. Resetting the first or the last zone of a partition straddling zones may impact neighboring partitions. Finally, if a partition start sector is not at the beginning of a sequential zone, it will be impossible to write to the first sectors of the partition on a host-managed device. Avoid all these problems and incoherencies by ignoring partitions that are not zone aligned. Note: Even with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled, bdev_is_zoned() will report the correct disk zoning type (host-aware, host-managed or none) but bdev_zone_size() will always return 0 for zoned block devices (i.e. the zone size is unknown). So test this as a way to ensure that a zoned block device is being handled as such. As a result, for a host-aware devices, unaligned zone partitions will be accepted with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled. That is, the disk will be treated as a regular block device (as it should). If zoned block device support is enabled, only aligned partitions will be accepted.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2015-10-21block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendiskMartin K. Petersen
Up until now the_integrity profile has been dynamically allocated and attached to struct gendisk after the disk has been made active. This causes problems because NVMe devices need to register the profile prior to the partition table being read due to a mandatory metadata buffer requirement. In addition, DM goes through hoops to deal with preallocating, but not initializing integrity profiles. Since the integrity profile is small (4 bytes + a pointer), Christoph suggested moving it to struct gendisk proper. This requires several changes: - Moving the blk_integrity definition to genhd.h. - Inlining blk_integrity in struct gendisk. - Removing the dynamic allocation code. - Adding helper functions which allow gendisk to set up and tear down the integrity sysfs dir when a disk is added/deleted. - Adding a blk_integrity_revalidate() callback for updating the stable pages bdi setting. - The calls that depend on whether a device has an integrity profile or not now key off of the bi->profile pointer. - Simplifying the integrity support routines in DM (Mike Snitzer).

2012-08-01block: add partition resize function to blkpg ioctlVivek Goyal
Add a new operation code (BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION) to the BLKPG ioctl that allows altering the size of an existing partition, even if it is currently in use. This patch converts hd_struct->nr_sects into sequence counter because One might extend a partition while IO is happening to it and update of nr_sects can be non-atomic on 32bit machines with 64bit sector_t. This can lead to issues like reading inconsistent size of a partition. Sequence counter have been used so that readers don't have to take bdev mutex lock as we call sector_in_part() very frequently. Now all the access to hd_struct->nr_sects should happen using sequence counter read/update helper functions part_nr_sects_read/part_nr_sects_write. There is one exception though, set_capacity()/get_capacity(). I think theoritically race should exist there too but this patch does not modify set_capacity()/get_capacity() due to sheer number of call sites and I am afraid that change might break something. I have left that as a TODO item. We can handle it later if need be. This patch does not introduce any new races as such w.r.t set_capacity()/get_capacity(). v2: Add CONFIG_LBDAF test to UP preempt case as suggested by Phillip.
