Flush warning

Flush warning

[Steve Wise]

Hey guys,

We're seeing a WARNING happening when running an fio test on a single NVMF
attached ramdisk over iw_cxgb4.  While the fio test is running, the NVMF host is
also killing the controller via writing to
/sys/block/nvme*/device/reset_controller.  Here is the script:

----
[root@trinitycraft ~]# cat fio_issue.sh
num=0

fio --rw=randrw --name=random --norandommap --ioengine=libaio --size=400m
--group_reporting --exitall --fsync_on_close=1 --invalidate=1 --direct=1
--filename=/dev/nvme0n1 --time_based --runtime=30 --iodepth=32 --numjobs=8
--unit_base=1 --bs=4k --kb_base=1000 &

sleep 2
while [ $num -lt 30 ]
do
        echo 1 >/sys/block/nvme0n1/device/reset_controller
        [ $? -eq 1 ] && echo "reset_controller operation failed: $num" && exit 1
        ((num++))
        sleep 0.5
done
-----

The WARNING seems to be due to nvmet_rdma_queue_connect() calling
flush_scheduled_work() while in the upcall from the RDMA_CM.  It I running on
the iw_cm event workqueue, which is created with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set.  I'm not
sure what this WARNING is telling me.  Does the iw_cm workqueue NOT need
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set?  Or is there some other issue with the nvmet/rdma code doing
work flushing in the iw_cm workq context?

This is with 4.12.0.

Any thoughts?  Thanks!

Steve.

This flush is designed to prevent nvmet-rdma from having too much
inflight resources in case of a high pace of controller teardown and
establishment (like you trigger in your test).

queue teardowns are run on system_wq, does iw_cm needs memory
reclamation protection?

I don't know.  I read the workqueue doc on WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, but I don't know who
to tell if iw_cm needs this or not.  Can you give me an example of a workqueue
that _does_ need WQ_MEM_RECLAIM?  I _think_ it means your workqueue is required
to run something that would get triggered by the oom OS code, but I don't know
if that would include rdma CMs or not...

Many of the workqueues in infiniband/core use WQ_MEM_RECLAIM: cma, iwcm, mad,
multicast, sa_query, and ucma. 

Hey Sean, do you have any insight into whether the CMA modules really need
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM for their workqueues?

Does anyone else know?

Thanks!

Steve.

Consider that the ib_core can be used to back storage. Ie consider a
situation where iSER/NFS/SRP needs to reconnect to respond to kernel
paging/reclaim.

On the surface it seems reasonable to me that these are on a reclaim
path?

hmm.  That seems reasonable.  Then I would think the nvme_rdma would also need
to be using a reclaim workqueue.

Sagi, Do you think I should add a private workqueue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM to
nvme_rdma vs using the system_wq?  nvme/target probably needs one also...

Steve.

The workqueue which frees the memory and doesn't allocate memory during execution
is supposed to be marked as WQ_MEM_RECLAIM. This flag will cause to priority increase
for such workqueue during low memory conditions.

I don't remember it for sure, but I think that shrinker will call to
such workqueue in these conditions. In normal conditions, it won't
change a lot.

I'm pretty sure that ULP connect will trigger memory allocations, which
will fail under memory pressure... Maybe I'm missing something.

I'm not sure, being unable to flush system workqueue from CM context is
somewhat limiting... We could use a private workqueue for nvmet
teardowns but I'm not sure we want to do that.

Which to my understanding means that CM workqueue should not use it as
on each CM connect, by definition the ULP allocates memory (qp, cq etc).

From my understanding too.
That workqueue was introduced in 2005, in a977049dacde
("[PATCH] IB: Add the kernel CM implementation"), it is not clear if it
was intentionally.

Hal,
do you remember the rationale there?

I believe the work queue was to avoid potential deadlocks that could arise from using the MAD work queue.  The original submission did not mark the work queue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.  I do not know when that change was added.

By the way, the queue I'm actually having the problem with is in the iwcm, not
the ibcm.  I think we should remove WQ_MEM_RECLAIM from all the CM queues
because I agree now that ulps potentially can/will allocate memory in the
contect of these workqueues...
