This commit tackles a number of issues in the way BIOs (`struct bio`)
are constructed for submission to the Linux block layer.
The kernel has a hard upper limit on the number of pages/segments that
can be added to a BIO, as well as a separate limit for each device
(related to its queue depth and other scheduling characteristics).
ZFS counts the number of memory pages in the request ABD
(`abd_nr_pages_off()`, and then uses that as the number of segments to
put into the BIO, up to the hard upper limit. If it requires more than
the limit, it will create multiple BIOs.
Leaving aside the fact that page count method is wrong (see below), not
limiting to the device segment max means that the device driver will
need to split the BIO in half. This is alone is not necessarily a
problem, but it interacts with another issue to cause a much larger
problem.
The kernel function to add a segment to a BIO (`bio_add_page()`) takes a
`struct page` pointer, and offset+len within it. `struct page` can
represent a run of contiguous memory pages (known as a "compound page").
In can be of arbitrary length.
The ZFS functions that count ABD pages and load them into the BIO
(`abd_nr_pages_off()`, `bio_map()` and `abd_bio_map_off()`) will never
consider a page to be more than `PAGE_SIZE` (4K), even if the `struct
page` is for multiple pages. In this case, it will load the same `struct
page` into the BIO multiple times, with the offset adjusted each time.
With a sufficiently large ABD, this can easily lead to the BIO being
entirely filled much earlier than it could have been. This is also
further contributes to the problem caused by the incorrect segment limit
calculation, as its much easier to go past the device limit, and so
require a split.
Again, this is not a problem on its own.
The logic for "never submit more than `PAGE_SIZE`" is actually a little
more subtle. It will actually never submit a buffer that crosses a 4K
page boundary.
In practice, this is fine, as most ABDs are scattered, that is a list of
complete 4K pages, and so are loaded in as such.
Linear ABDs are typically allocated from slabs, and for small sizes they
are frequently not aligned to page boundaries. For example, a 12K
allocation can span four pages, eg:
-- 4K -- -- 4K -- -- 4K -- -- 4K --
| | | | |
:## ######## ######## ######: [1K, 4K, 4K, 3K]
Such an allocation would be loaded into a BIO as you see:
[1K, 4K, 4K, 3K]
This tends not to be a problem in practice, because even if the BIO were
filled and needed to be split, each half would still have either a start
or end aligned to the logical block size of the device (assuming 4K at
least).
---
In ideal circumstances, these shortcomings don't cause any particular
problems. Its when they start to interact with other ZFS features that
things get interesting.
Aggregation will create a "gang" ABD, which is simply a list of other
ABDs. Iterating over a gang ABD is just iterating over each ABD within
it in turn.
Because the segments are simply loaded in order, we can end up with
uneven segments either side of the "gap" between the two ABDs. For
example, two 12K ABDs might be aggregated and then loaded as:
[1K, 4K, 4K, 3K, 2K, 4K, 4K, 2K]
Should a split occur, each individual BIO can end up either having an
start or end offset that is not aligned to the logical block size, which
some drivers (eg SCSI) will reject. However, this tends not to happen
because the default aggregation limit usually keeps the BIO small enough
to not require more than one split, and most pages are actually full 4K
pages, so hitting an uneven gap is very rare anyway.
If the pool is under particular memory pressure, then an IO can be
broken down into a "gang block", a 512-byte block composed of a header
and up to three block pointers. Each points to a fragment of the
original write, or in turn, another gang block, breaking the original
data up over and over until space can be found in the pool for each of
them.
Each gang header is a separate 512-byte memory allocation from a slab,
that needs to be written down to disk. When the gang header is added to
the BIO, its a single 512-byte segment.
Pulling all this together, consider a large aggregated write of gang
blocks. This results a BIO containing lots of 512-byte segments. Given
our tendency to overfill the BIO, a split is likely, and most possible
split points will yield a pair of BIOs that are misaligned. Drivers that
care, like the SCSI driver, will reject them.
---
This commit is a substantial refactor and rewrite of much of `vdev_disk`
to sort all this out.
`vdev_bio_max_segs()` now returns the ideal maximum size for the device,
if available. There's also a tuneable `zfs_vdev_disk_max_segs` to
override this, to assist with testing.
We scan the ABD up front to count the number of pages within it, and to
confirm that if we submitted all those pages to one or more BIOs, it
could be split at any point with creating a misaligned BIO. If the
pages in the BIO are not usable (as in any of the above situations), the
ABD is linearised, and then checked again. This is the same technique
used in `vdev_geom` on FreeBSD, adjusted for Linux's variable page size
and allocator quirks.
`vbio_t` is a cleanup and enhancement of the old `dio_request_t`. The
idea is simply that it can hold all the state needed to create, submit
and return multiple BIOs, including all the refcounts, the ABD copy if
it was needed, and so on. Apart from what I hope is a clearer interface,
the major difference is that because we know how many BIOs we'll need up
front, we don't need the old overflow logic that would grow the BIO
array, throw away all the old work and restart. We can get it right from
the start.

I recently gained the ability to run Clang's static analyzer on the
linux kernel modules via a few hacks. This extended coverage to code
that was previously missed since Clang's static analyzer only looked at
code that we built in userspace. Running it against the Linux kernel
modules built from my local branch produced a total of 72 reports
against my local branch. Of those, 50 were reports of logic errors and
22 were reports of dead code. Since we already had cleaned up all of
the previous dead code reports, I felt it would be a good next step to
clean up these dead code reports. Clang did a further breakdown of the
dead code reports into:
Dead assignment 15
Dead increment 2
Dead nested assignment 5
The benefit of cleaning these up, especially in the case of dead nested
assignment, is that they can expose places where our error handling is
incorrect. A number of them were fairly straight forward. However
several were not:
In vdev_disk_physio_completion(), not only were we not using the return
value from the static function vdev_disk_dio_put(), but nothing used it,
so I changed it to return void and removed the existing (void) cast in
the other area where we call it in addition to no longer storing it to a
stack value.
In FSE_createDTable(), the function is dead code. Its helper function
FSE_freeDTable() is also dead code, as are the CPP definitions in
`module/zstd/include/zstd_compat_wrapper.h`. We just delete it all.
In zfs_zevent_wait(), we have an optimization opportunity. cv_wait_sig()
returns 0 if there are waiting signals and 1 if there are none. The
Linux SPL version literally returns `signal_pending(current) ? 0 : 1)`
and FreeBSD implements the same semantics, we can just do
`!cv_wait_sig()` in place of `signal_pending(current)` to avoid
unnecessarily calling it again.
zfs_setattr() on FreeBSD version did not have error handling issue
because the code was removed entirely from FreeBSD version. The error is
from updating the attribute directory's files. After some thought, I
decided to propapage errors on it to userspace.
In zfs_secpolicy_tmp_snapshot(), we ignore a lack of permission from the
first check in favor of checking three other permissions. I assume this
is intentional.
In zfs_create_fs(), the return value of zap_update() was not checked
despite setting an important version number. I see no backward
compatibility reason to permit failures, so we add an assertion to catch
failures. Interestingly, Linux is still using ASSERT(error == 0) from
OpenSolaris while FreeBSD has switched to the improved ASSERT0(error)
from illumos, although illumos has yet to adopt it here. ASSERT(error ==
0) was used on Linux while ASSERT0(error) was used on FreeBSD since the
entire file needs conversion and that should be the subject of
another patch.
dnode_move()'s issue was caused by us not having implemented
POINTER_IS_VALID() on Linux. We have a stub in
`include/os/linux/spl/sys/kmem_cache.h` for it, when it really should be
in `include/os/linux/spl/sys/kmem.h` to be consistent with
Illumos/OpenSolaris. FreeBSD put both `POINTER_IS_VALID()` and
`POINTER_INVALIDATE()` in `include/os/freebsd/spl/sys/kmem.h`, so we
copy what it did.
Whenever a report was in platform-specific code, I checked the FreeBSD
version to see if it also applied to FreeBSD, but it was only relevant a
few times.
Lastly, the patch that enabled Clang's static analyzer to be run on the
Linux kernel modules needs more work before it can be put into a PR. I
plan to do that in the future as part of the on-going static analysis
work that I am doing.

Linux defaults to setting "failfast" on BIOs, so that the OS will not
retry IOs that fail, and instead report the error to ZFS.
In some cases, such as errors reported by the HBA driver, not
the device itself, we would wish to retry rather than generating
vdev errors in ZFS. This new property allows that.
This introduces a per vdev option to disable the failfast option.
This also introduces a global module parameter to define the failfast
mask value.

Various module parameters such as `zfs_arc_max` were originally
`uint64_t` on OpenSolaris/Illumos, but were changed to `unsigned long`
for Linux compatibility because Linux's kernel default module parameter
implementation did not support 64-bit types on 32-bit platforms. This
caused problems when porting OpenZFS to Windows because its LLP64 memory
model made `unsigned long` a 32-bit type on 64-bit, which created the
undesireable situation that parameters that should accept 64-bit values
could not on 64-bit Windows.
Upon inspection, it turns out that the Linux kernel module parameter
interface is extensible, such that we are allowed to define our own
types. Rather than maintaining the original type change via hacks to to
continue shrinking module parameters on 32-bit Linux, we implement
support for 64-bit module parameters on Linux.
After doing a review of all 64-bit kernel parameters (found via the man
page and also proposed changes by Andrew Innes), the kernel module
parameters fell into a few groups:
Parameters that were originally 64-bit on Illumos:
* dbuf_cache_max_bytes
* dbuf_metadata_cache_max_bytes
* l2arc_feed_min_ms
* l2arc_feed_secs
* l2arc_headroom
* l2arc_headroom_boost
* l2arc_write_boost
* l2arc_write_max
* metaslab_aliquot
* metaslab_force_ganging
* zfetch_array_rd_sz
* zfs_arc_max
* zfs_arc_meta_limit
* zfs_arc_meta_min
* zfs_arc_min
* zfs_async_block_max_blocks
* zfs_condense_max_obsolete_bytes
* zfs_condense_min_mapping_bytes
* zfs_deadman_checktime_ms
* zfs_deadman_synctime_ms
* zfs_initialize_chunk_size
* zfs_initialize_value
* zfs_lua_max_instrlimit
* zfs_lua_max_memlimit
* zil_slog_bulk
Parameters that were originally 32-bit on Illumos:
* zfs_per_txg_dirty_frees_percent
Parameters that were originally `ssize_t` on Illumos:
* zfs_immediate_write_sz
Note that `ssize_t` is `int32_t` on 32-bit and `int64_t` on 64-bit. It
has been upgraded to 64-bit.
Parameters that were `long`/`unsigned long` because of Linux/FreeBSD
influence:
* l2arc_rebuild_blocks_min_l2size
* zfs_key_max_salt_uses
* zfs_max_log_walking
* zfs_max_logsm_summary_length
* zfs_metaslab_max_size_cache_sec
* zfs_min_metaslabs_to_flush
* zfs_multihost_interval
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_max
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_min
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_pct
* zfs_unflushed_max_mem_amt
* zfs_unflushed_max_mem_ppm
New parameters that do not exist in Illumos:
* l2arc_trim_ahead
* vdev_file_logical_ashift
* vdev_file_physical_ashift
* zfs_arc_dnode_limit
* zfs_arc_dnode_limit_percent
* zfs_arc_dnode_reduce_percent
* zfs_arc_meta_limit_percent
* zfs_arc_sys_free
* zfs_deadman_ziotime_ms
* zfs_delete_blocks
* zfs_history_output_max
* zfs_livelist_max_entries
* zfs_max_async_dedup_frees
* zfs_max_nvlist_src_size
* zfs_rebuild_max_segment
* zfs_rebuild_vdev_limit
* zfs_unflushed_log_txg_max
* zfs_vdev_max_auto_ashift
* zfs_vdev_min_auto_ashift
* zfs_vnops_read_chunk_size
* zvol_max_discard_blocks
Rather than clutter the lists with commentary, the module parameters
that need comments are repeated below.
A few parameters were defined in Linux/FreeBSD specific code, where the
use of ulong/long is not an issue for portability, so we leave them
alone:
* zfs_delete_blocks
* zfs_key_max_salt_uses
* zvol_max_discard_blocks
The documentation for a few parameters was found to be incorrect:
* zfs_deadman_checktime_ms - incorrectly documented as int
* zfs_delete_blocks - not documented as Linux only
* zfs_history_output_max - incorrectly documented as int
* zfs_vnops_read_chunk_size - incorrectly documented as long
* zvol_max_discard_blocks - incorrectly documented as ulong
The documentation for these has been fixed, alongside the changes to
document the switch to fixed width types.
In addition, several kernel module parameters were percentages or held
ashift values, so being 64-bit never made sense for them. They have been
downgraded to 32-bit:
* vdev_file_logical_ashift
* vdev_file_physical_ashift
* zfs_arc_dnode_limit_percent
* zfs_arc_dnode_reduce_percent
* zfs_arc_meta_limit_percent
* zfs_per_txg_dirty_frees_percent
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_pct
* zfs_vdev_max_auto_ashift
* zfs_vdev_min_auto_ashift
Of special note are `zfs_vdev_max_auto_ashift` and
`zfs_vdev_min_auto_ashift`, which were already defined as `uint64_t`,
and passed to the kernel as `ulong`. This is inherently buggy on big
endian 32-bit Linux, since the values would not be written to the
correct locations. 32-bit FreeBSD was unaffected because its sysctl code
correctly treated this as a `uint64_t`.
Lastly, a code comment suggests that `zfs_arc_sys_free` is
Linux-specific, but there is nothing to indicate to me that it is
Linux-specific. Nothing was done about that.

compiling the new inline function replacement implemented in the header.
This change also creates a new vdev_bio_set_dev() function that performs
the same work, and also performs the work implemented in
vdev_bio_associate_blkg(), as it is the only thing calling that function
in our code. Our custom vdev_bio_associate_blkg() is now only compiled
if the bio_set_dev() is a macro in the Linux headers.

Due to a possible lock inversion the zvol open call path on Linux
needs to be able to retry in the case where the spa_namespace_lock
cannot be acquired.
For Linux 5.12 an older kernel this was accomplished by returning
-ERESTARTSYS from zvol_open() to request that blkdev_get() drop
the bdev->bd_mutex lock, reaquire it, then call the open callback
again. However, as of the 5.13 kernel this behavior was removed.
Therefore, for 5.12 and older kernels we preserved the existing
retry logic, but for 5.13 and newer kernels we retry internally in
zvol_open(). This should always succeed except in the case where
a pool's vdev are layed on zvols, in which case it may fail. To
handle this case vdev_disk_open() has been updated to retry when
opening a device when -ERESTARTSYS is returned.

`__vdev_disk_physio()` uses `abd_nr_pages_off()` to allocate a bio with
a sufficient number of iovec's to process this zio (i.e.
`nr_iovecs`/`bi_max_vecs`). If there are not enough iovec's in the bio,
then additional bio's will be allocated. However, this is a sub-optimal
code path. In particular, it requires several abd calls (to
`abd_nr_pages_off()` and `abd_bio_map_off()`) which will have to walk
the constituents of the ABD (the pages or the gang children) because
they are looking for offsets > 0.
For gang ABD's, `abd_nr_pages_off()` returns the number of iovec's
needed for the first constituent, rather than the sum of all
constituents (within the requested range). This always under-estimates
the required number of iovec's, which causes us to always need several
bio's. The end result is that `__vdev_disk_physio()` is usually O(n^2)
for gang ABD's (and occasionally O(n^3), when more than 16 bio's are
needed).
This commit fixes `abd_nr_pages_off()`'s handling of gang ABD's, to
correctly determine how many iovec's are needed, by adding up the number
of iovec's for each of the gang children in the requested range.

This patch adds a new top-level vdev type called dRAID, which stands
for Distributed parity RAID. This pool configuration allows all dRAID
vdevs to participate when rebuilding to a distributed hot spare device.
This can substantially reduce the total time required to restore full
parity to pool with a failed device.
A dRAID pool can be created using the new top-level `draid` type.
Like `raidz`, the desired redundancy is specified after the type:
`draid[1,2,3]`. No additional information is required to create the
pool and reasonable default values will be chosen based on the number
of child vdevs in the dRAID vdev.
zpool create <pool> draid[1,2,3] <vdevs...>
Unlike raidz, additional optional dRAID configuration values can be
provided as part of the draid type as colon separated values. This
allows administrators to fully specify a layout for either performance
or capacity reasons. The supported options include:
zpool create <pool> \
draid[<parity>][:<data>d][:<children>c][:<spares>s] \
<vdevs...>
- draid[parity] - Parity level (default 1)
- draid[:<data>d] - Data devices per group (default 8)
- draid[:<children>c] - Expected number of child vdevs
- draid[:<spares>s] - Distributed hot spares (default 0)

When adding test coverage for the new dRAID vdev type the following
options were added to the ztest command. These options are leverages
by zloop.sh to test a wide range of dRAID configurations.
-K draid|raidz|random - kind of RAID to test
-D <value> - dRAID data drives per group
-S <value> - dRAID distributed hot spares
-R <value> - RAID parity (raidz or dRAID)
The zpool_create, zpool_import, redundancy, replacement and fault

When expanding a device zfs needs to rescan the partition table to
get the correct size. This can only happen when we're in the kernel
and requires the device to be closed. As part of the rescan, udev is
notified and the device links are removed and recreated. This leave a
window where the vdev code may try to reopen the device before udev
has recreated the link. If that happens, then the pool may end up in
a suspended state.
To correct this, we leverage the BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION ioctl which
allows the partition information to be modified even while it's in use.
This ioctl also does not remove the device link associated with the zfs
data partition so it eliminates the race condition that can occur in
the kernel.

Closes#10897
Many modern devices use physical allocation units that are much
larger than the minimum logical allocation size accessible by
external commands. Two prevalent examples of this are 512e disk
drives (512b logical sector, 4K physical sector) and flash devices
(512b logical sector, 4K or larger allocation block size, and 128k
or larger erase block size). Operations that modify less than the
physical sector size result in a costly read-modify-write or garbage
collection sequence on these devices.
Simply exporting the true physical sector of the device to ZFS would
yield optimal performance, but has two serious drawbacks:
1. Existing pools created with devices that have different logical
and physical block sizes, but were configured to use the logical
block size (e.g. because the OS version used for pool construction
reported the logical block size instead of the physical block
size) will suddenly find that the vdev allocation size has
increased. This can be easily tolerated for active members of
the array, but ZFS would prevent replacement of a vdev with
another identical device because it now appears that the smaller
allocation size required by the pool is not supported by the new
device.
2. The device's physical block size may be too large to be supported
by ZFS. The optimal allocation size for the vdev may be quite
large. For example, a RAID controller may export a vdev that
requires read-modify-write cycles unless accessed using 64k
aligned/sized requests. ZFS currently has an 8k minimum block
size limit.
Reporting both the logical and physical allocation sizes for vdevs
solves these problems. A device may be used so long as the logical
block size is compatible with the configuration. By comparing the
logical and physical block sizes, new configurations can be optimized
and administrators can be notified of any existing pools that are
sub-optimal.

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 3.2 | Apr 28, 2017
SLES 11 | 3.0 | Mar 32, 2019
RHEL / CentOS 6 | 2.6.32 | Nov 30, 2020
The following changes were made as part of removing support.
* Updated `configure` to enforce a minimum kernel version as
specified in the META file (Linux-Minimum: 3.10).
configure: error:
*** Cannot build against kernel version 2.6.32.
*** The minimum supported kernel version is 3.10.
* Removed all `configure` kABI checks and matching C code for
interfaces which solely predate the Linux 3.10 kernel.
* Updated all `configure` kABI checks to fail when an interface is
missing which was in the 3.10 kernel up to the latest 5.1 kernel.
Removed the HAVE_* preprocessor defines for these checks and
updated the code to unconditionally use the verified interface.
* Inverted the detection logic in several kABI checks to match
the new interface as it appears in 3.10 and newer and not the
legacy interface.
* Consolidated the following checks in to individual files. Due
the large number of changes in the checks it made sense to handle
this now. It would be desirable to group other related checks in
the same fashion, but this as left as future work.
- config/kernel-blkdev.m4 - Block device kABI checks
- config/kernel-blk-queue.m4 - Block queue kABI checks
- config/kernel-bio.m4 - Bio interface kABI checks
* Removed the kABI checks for sops->nr_cached_objects() and
sops->free_cached_objects(). These interfaces are currently unused.
