[md PATCH 0/5] Address deadlock associated with setting suspend_lo

[md PATCH 0/5] Address deadlock associated with setting suspend_lo

[NeilBrown]

This series fixes the issue that Xiao Ni found
where a deadlock can happen if there are active writes
to an md/raid5 waiting for suspend_lo to be increased.

The last patch contains the important fix.  The others
prepare for it so that it can work reliably.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

      md: always hold reconfig_mutex when calling mddev_suspend()
      md: don't call bitmap_create() while array is quiesced.
      md: move suspend_hi/lo handling into core md code
      md: use mddev_suspend/resume instead of ->quiesce()
      md: allow metadata update while suspending.

[md PATCH 1/5] md: always hold reconfig_mutex when calling mddev_suspend()

[NeilBrown]

Most often mddev_suspend() is called with
reconfig_mutex held.  Make this a requirement in
preparation a subsequent patch.

Taking the mutex in r5c_disable_writeback_async() is
a little tricky as this is called from a work queue
via log->disable_writeback_work, and flush_work()
is called on that while holding ->reconfig_mutex.
If the work item hasn't run before flush_work()
is called, the work function will not be able to
get the mutex.

So we use mddev_trylock() inside the wait_event() call, and have that
abort when conf->log is set to NULL, which happens before
flush_work() is called.

can we do further, eg, make mddev_resumed() called with the mutex held. That's
symmetrical. It appears only dm-raid.c doesn't hold the mutext for mddev_resume
in a quick scan.

Probably we just bail out if conf->log == NULL. The whole trylock point is for
the exit case, we can handle it separately. The bonus is
r5c_disable_writeback_async will not magically do nothing if the mutex is
already held by others.

That is exactly what this code does.  If ->log is NULL or ever becomes
NULL, we bail out.

I don't understand... the try_lock is so we can wait for the lock, or
for other things.  The "wait_event()" waits until it can get the lock,
or it doesn't need to. r5c_disable_writeback_async
will not "do nothing if the mutex is already held by others"

Though I just noticed ->sb_wait doesn't get woken when the mddev is
unlocked. 
I could just add a wake_up in mddev_unlock but that probably isn't
a good idea.  I'll have a proper look...

So drop this patch for now, thanks.

[md PATCH 1/5 v2] md: always hold reconfig_mutex when calling mddev_suspend()

[NeilBrown]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 5066 bytes --]


Most often mddev_suspend() is called with
reconfig_mutex held.  Make this a requirement in
preparation a subsequent patch.  Also require
reconfig_mutex to be held for mddev_resume(),
partly for symmetry and partly to guarantee
no races with incr/decr of mddev->suspend.

Taking the mutex in r5c_disable_writeback_async() is
a little tricky as this is called from a work queue
via log->disable_writeback_work, and flush_work()
is called on that while holding ->reconfig_mutex.
If the work item hasn't run before flush_work()
is called, the work function will not be able to
get the mutex.

So we use mddev_trylock() inside the wait_event() call, and have that
abort when conf->log is set to NULL, which happens before
flush_work() is called.
We wait in mddev->sb_wait and ensure this is woken
when any of the conditions change.  This requires
waking mddev->sb_wait in mddev_unlock().  This is only
like to trigger extra wake_ups of threads that needn't
be woken when metadata is being written, and that
doesn't happen often enough that the cost would be
noticeable.

Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>

I decided I would just wake_up(&mddev->sb_wait) in mddev_unlock().
It isn't that bad, and every other idea I came up with was worse.

I also now require reconfig_mutex on mddev_resume().  That
ensures the mddev->suspended counted never has races.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

For this one, my point is:

	wait_event(mddev->sb_wait, conf->log == NULL ||
		   !test_bit(MD_SB_CHANGE_PENDING, &mddev->sb_flags));
	if (conf->log == NULL)
		return;

	mddev_suspend(mddev);
	log->r5c_journal_mode = R5C_JOURNAL_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH;
	mddev_resume(mddev);

does it work?

The
	lockdep_assert_held(&mddev->reconfig_mutex);
in mddev_suspend() will complain.

If you put an mddev_lock() call in there to stop the complaint, and if
the work item doesn't start before the reconfig_mutex is taken prior to
stopping the array, then r5l_exit_log() can deadlock at
	flush_work(&log->disable_writeback_work);

Ok, got it now. But really don't like this patch. The mddev_unlock is strange,
r5c_disable_writeback_async could skip disabling writeback too. Could we add a
new callback like .prepare_free, and flush workqueue there. After we drop the
reconfig_mutex in do_md_stop, we call the prepare_free. We can probably set a
flag, so later r5c_disable_writeback_async will bail out doing nothing. I think
this should work, right?

Might work, though it sounds more messy to me (assuming I understand).

I would like to get rid of disable_writeback_work altogether.
Just set  log->r5c_journal_mode = R5C_JOURNAL_MODE_WRITE_THROUGH in
r5c_update_on_rdev_error(), and make sure that does the right thing.

The distinction between write-through and write-back should be able to
be a per-stripe_head distinction.  Once we set r5c_journal_mode, new
stripe_heads will get the new mode, old ones are allowed to continue how
they are.
Maybe we could keep a counter of how many stripes are in WRITE_BACK
mode, and test that counter in r5c_is_writeback()??

I don't know what all the issues are so it would need careful review,
preferably by someone familiar with the code.

Short of that, I think my current patch is the best interim step.  I
agree that it isn't the most elegant thing ever, but it is localized and
I believe it works correctly.
The "mddev_unlock()" shouldn't look too strange, it perfectly balances
he mddev_try_lock().

Thanks,
NeilBrown

We check the writeback in several steps, would be problematical, but I didn't
take a close look yet.

Alright, we need this patch to avoid the lockdep warning, so I queued the patch
now. Once I got time, I'll check if the proposal works.

[md PATCH 2/5] md: don't call bitmap_create() while array is quiesced.

[NeilBrown]

bitmap_create() allocates memory with GFP_KERNEL and
so can wait for IO.
If called while the array is quiesced, it could wait indefinitely
for write out to the array - deadlock.
So call bitmap_create() before quiescing the array.

[md PATCH 3/5] md: move suspend_hi/lo handling into core md code

[NeilBrown]

responding to ->suspend_lo and ->suspend_hi is similar
to responding to ->suspended.  It is best to wait in
the common core code without incrementing ->active_io.
This allows mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() to work while
requests are waiting for suspend_lo/hi to change.
This is will be important after a subsequent patch
which uses mddev_suspend() to synchronize updating for
suspend_lo/hi.

So move the code for testing suspend_lo/hi out of raid1.c
and raid5.c, and place it in md.c

Do we still need the quiesce(mddev, 2)? sounds not to me.

I think we can remove the state == 2 branch in raid5_quiesce().

This leaves only raid1 and md-cluster needs the quiesce(2) calls. In the
future, we probably should abstract that md-cluster logic to separate API and
let raid1 use it for waitting. The quiesce(2) is a strange name for the wait
purpose.

Agreed.  I'll try to find a nice solution.

[md PATCH 6/5] md: remove special meaning of ->quiesce(.., 2)

[NeilBrown]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 9986 bytes --]


The '2' argument means "wake up anything that is waiting".
This is an inelegant part of the design and was added
to help support management of suspend_lo/suspend_hi setting.
Now that suspend_lo/hi is managed in mddev_suspend/resume,
that need is gone.
These is still a couple of places where we call 'quiesce'
with an argument of '2', but they can safely be changed to
call ->quiesce(.., 1); ->quiesce(.., 0) which
achieve the same result at the small cost of pausing IO
briefly.

This removes a small "optimization" from suspend_{hi,lo}_store,
but it isn't clear that optimization served a useful purpose.
The code now is a lot clearer.

Suggested-by: Shaohua Li <shli@kernel.org>
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com>

As suggested, this remove the special meaning of '2'.

Thanks,

[md PATCH 5/5] md: allow metadata update while suspending.

[NeilBrown]

There are various deadlocks that can occur
when a thread holds reconfig_mutex and calls
->quiesce(mddev, 1).
As some write request block waiting for
metadata to be updated (e.g. to record device
failure), and as the md thread updates the metadata
while the reconfig mutex is held, holding the mutex
can stop write requests completing, and this prevents
->quiesce(mddev, 1) from completing.

->quiesce() is now usually called from mddev_suspend(),
and it is always called with reconfig_mutex held.  So
at this time it is safe for the thread to update metadata
without explicitly taking the lock.

So add 2 new flags, one which says the unlocked updates is
allowed, and one which ways it is happening.  Then allow it
while the quiesce completes, and then wait for it to finish.

[md PATCH 4/5] md: use mddev_suspend/resume instead of ->quiesce()

[NeilBrown]

mddev_suspend() is a more general interface than
calling ->quiesce() and is so more extensible.  A
future patch will make use of this.
