2022-04-17bfq: Make sure bfqg for which we are queueing requests is onlineJan Kara
Bios queued into BFQ IO scheduler can be associated with a cgroup that was already offlined. This may then cause insertion of this bfq_group into a service tree. But this bfq_group will get freed as soon as last bio associated with it is completed leading to use after free issues for service tree users. Fix the problem by making sure we always operate on online bfq_group. If the bfq_group associated with the bio is not online, we pick the first online parent.

2022-04-17bfq: Get rid of __bio_blkcg() usageJan Kara
BFQ usage of __bio_blkcg() is a relict from the past. Furthermore if bio would not be associated with any blkcg, the usage of __bio_blkcg() in BFQ is prone to races with the task being migrated between cgroups as __bio_blkcg() calls at different places could return different blkcgs. Convert BFQ to the new situation where bio->bi_blkg is initialized in bio_set_dev() and thus practically always valid. This allows us to save blkcg_gq lookup and noticeably simplify the code.

2022-04-17bfq: Track whether bfq_group is still onlineJan Kara
Track whether bfq_group is still online. We cannot rely on blkcg_gq->online because that gets cleared only after all policies are offlined and we need something that gets updated already under bfqd->lock when we are cleaning up our bfq_group to be able to guarantee that when we see online bfq_group, it will stay online while we are holding bfqd->lock lock.

2022-04-17bfq: Split shared queues on move between cgroupsJan Kara
When bfqq is shared by multiple processes it can happen that one of the processes gets moved to a different cgroup (or just starts submitting IO for different cgroup). In case that happens we need to split the merged bfqq as otherwise we will have IO for multiple cgroups in one bfqq and we will just account IO time to wrong entities etc. Similarly if the bfqq is scheduled to merge with another bfqq but the merge didn't happen yet, cancel the merge as it need not be valid anymore.

2021-10-17block, bfq: reset last_bfqq_created on group changePaolo Valente
Since commit 430a67f9d616 ("block, bfq: merge bursts of newly-created queues"), BFQ maintains a per-group pointer to the last bfq_queue created. If such a queue, say bfqq, happens to move to a different group, then bfqq is no more a valid last bfq_queue created for its previous group. That pointer must then be cleared. Not resetting such a pointer may also cause UAF, if bfqq happens to also be freed after being moved to a different group. This commit performs this missing reset. As such it fixes commit 430a67f9d616 ("block, bfq: merge bursts of newly-created queues"). Such a missing reset is most likely the cause of the crash reported in [1]. With some analysis, we found that this crash was due to the above UAF. And such UAF did go away with this commit applied [1]. Anyway, before this commit, that crash happened to be triggered in conjunction with commit 2d52c58b9c9b ("block, bfq: honor already-setup queue merges"). The latter was then reverted by commit ebc69e897e17 ("Revert "block, bfq: honor already-setup queue merges""). Yet commit 2d52c58b9c9b ("block, bfq: honor already-setup queue merges") contains no error related with the above UAF, and can then be restored.

2021-03-25block, bfq: merge bursts of newly-created queuesPaolo Valente
Many throughput-sensitive workloads are made of several parallel I/O flows, with all flows generated by the same application, or more generically by the same task (e.g., system boot). The most counterproductive action with these workloads is plugging I/O dispatch when one of the bfq_queues associated with these flows remains temporarily empty. To avoid this plugging, BFQ has been using a burst-handling mechanism for years now. This mechanism has proven effective for throughput, and not detrimental for service guarantees. This commit pushes this mechanism a little bit further, basing on the following two facts. First, all the I/O flows of a the same application or task contribute to the execution/completion of that common application or task. So the performance figures that matter are total throughput of the flows and task-wide I/O latency. In particular, these flows do not need to be protected from each other, in terms of individual bandwidth or latency. Second, the above fact holds regardless of the number of flows. Putting these two facts together, this commits merges stably the bfq_queues associated with these I/O flows, i.e., with the processes that generate these IO/ flows, regardless of how many the involved processes are. To decide whether a set of bfq_queues is actually associated with the I/O flows of a common application or task, and to merge these queues stably, this commit operates as follows: given a bfq_queue, say Q2, currently being created, and the last bfq_queue, say Q1, created before Q2, Q2 is merged stably with Q1 if - very little time has elapsed since when Q1 was created - Q2 has the same ioprio as Q1 - Q2 belongs to the same group as Q1 Merging bfq_queues also reduces scheduling overhead. A fio test with ten random readers on /dev/nullb shows a throughput boost of 40%, with a quadcore. Since BFQ's execution time amounts to ~50% of the total per-request processing time, the above throughput boost implies that BFQ's overhead is reduced by more than 50%.

2020-08-18bfq: fix blkio cgroup leakage v4Dmitry Monakhov
Changes from v1: - update commit description with proper ref-accounting justification commit db37a34c563b ("block, bfq: get a ref to a group when adding it to a service tree") introduce leak forbfq_group and blkcg_gq objects because of get/put imbalance.

In bfq_pd_offline(), the function bfq_flush_idle_tree() is invoked to flush the rb tree that contains all idle entities belonging to the pd (cgroup) being destroyed. In particular, bfq_flush_idle_tree() is invoked before bfq_reparent_active_queues(). Yet the latter may happen to add some entities to the idle tree. It happens if, in some of the calls to bfq_bfqq_move() performed by bfq_reparent_active_queues(), the queue to move is empty and gets expired.

2020-03-21block, bfq: make reparent_leaf_entity actually work only on leaf entitiesPaolo Valente
bfq_reparent_leaf_entity() reparents the input leaf entity (a leaf entity represents just a bfq_queue in an entity tree). Yet, the input entity is guaranteed to always be a leaf entity only in two-level entity trees. In this respect, because of the error fixed by commit 14afc5936197 ("block, bfq: fix overwrite of bfq_group pointer in bfq_find_set_group()"), all (wrongly collapsed) entity trees happened to actually have only two levels. After the latter commit, this does not hold any longer. This commit fixes this problem by modifying bfq_reparent_leaf_entity(), so that it searches an active leaf entity down the path that stems from the input entity. Such a leaf entity is guaranteed to exist when bfq_reparent_leaf_entity() is invoked.

Commit ecedd3d7e199 ("block, bfq: get extra ref to prevent a queue from being freed during a group move") gets an extra reference to a bfq_queue before possibly deactivating it (temporarily), in bfq_bfqq_move(). This prevents the bfq_queue from disappearing before being reactivated in its new group. Yet, the bfq_queue may also be expired (i.e., its service may be stopped) before the bfq_queue is deactivated. And also an expiration may lead to a premature freeing.

2020-03-06block, bfq: fix overwrite of bfq_group pointer in bfq_find_set_group()Carlo Nonato
The bfq_find_set_group() function takes as input a blkcg (which represents a cgroup) and retrieves the corresponding bfq_group, then it updates the bfq internal group hierarchy (see comments inside the function for why this is needed) and finally it returns the bfq_group. In the hierarchy update cycle, the pointer holding the correct bfq_group that has to be returned is mistakenly used to traverse the hierarchy bottom to top, meaning that in each iteration it gets overwritten with the parent of the current group. Since the update cycle stops at root's children (depth = 2), the overwrite becomes a problem only if the blkcg describes a cgroup at a hierarchy level deeper than that (depth > 2). In this case the root's child that happens to be also an ancestor of the correct bfq_group is returned. The main consequence is that processes contained in a cgroup at depth greater than 2 are wrongly placed in the group described above by BFQ. This commits fixes this problem by using a different bfq_group pointer in the update cycle in order to avoid the overwrite of the variable holding the original group reference.

2019-11-07bfq-iosched: stop using blkg->stat_bytes and ->stat_iosTejun Heo
When used on cgroup1, bfq uses the blkg->stat_bytes and ->stat_ios from blk-cgroup core to populate six stat knobs. blk-cgroup core is moving away from blkg_rwstat to improve scalability and won't be able to support this usage. It isn't like the sharing gains all that much. Let's break it out to dedicated rwstat counters which are updated when on cgroup1. This makes use of bfqg_*rwstat*() helpers outside of CONFIG_BFQ_CGROUP_DEBUG. Move them out. v2: Compile fix when !CONFIG_BFQ_CGROUP_DEBUG.

2019-06-07block, bfq: add weight symlink to the bfq.weight cgroup parameterAngelo Ruocco
Many userspace tools and services use the proportional-share policy of the blkio/io cgroups controller. The CFQ I/O scheduler implemented this policy for the legacy block layer. To modify the weight of a group in case CFQ was in charge, the 'weight' parameter of the group must be modified. On the other hand, the BFQ I/O scheduler implements the same policy in blk-mq, but, with BFQ, the parameter to modify has a different name: bfq.weight (forced choice until legacy block was present, because two different policies cannot share a common parameter in cgroups). Due to CFQ legacy, most if not all userspace configurations still use the parameter 'weight', and for the moment do not seem likely to be changed. But, when CFQ went away with legacy block, such a parameter ceased to exist. So, a simple workaround has been proposed [1] to make all configurations work: add a symlink, named weight, to bfq.weight. This commit adds such a symlink.

2019-04-01block, bfq: do not merge queues on flash storage with queueingPaolo Valente
To boost throughput with a set of processes doing interleaved I/O (i.e., a set of processes whose individual I/O is random, but whose merged cumulative I/O is sequential), BFQ merges the queues associated with these processes, i.e., redirects the I/O of these processes into a common, shared queue. In the shared queue, I/O requests are ordered by their position on the medium, thus sequential I/O gets dispatched to the device when the shared queue is served. Queue merging costs execution time, because, to detect which queues to merge, BFQ must maintain a list of the head I/O requests of active queues, ordered by request positions. Measurements showed that this costs about 10% of BFQ's total per-request processing time. Request processing time becomes more and more critical as the speed of the underlying storage device grows. Yet, fortunately, queue merging is basically useless on the very devices that are so fast to make request processing time critical. To reach a high throughput, these devices must have many requests queued at the same time. But, in this configuration, the internal scheduling algorithms of these devices do also the job of queue merging: they reorder requests so as to obtain as much as possible a sequential I/O pattern. As a consequence, with processes doing interleaved I/O, the throughput reached by one such device is likely to be the same, with and without queue merging. In view of this fact, this commit disables queue merging, and all related housekeeping, for non-rotational devices with internal queueing. The total, single-lock-protected, per-request processing time of BFQ drops to, e.g., 1.9 us on an Intel Core i7-2760QM@2.40GHz (time measured with simple code instrumentation, and using the throughput-sync.sh script of the S suite [1], in performance-profiling mode). To put this result into context, the total, single-lock-protected, per-request execution time of the lightest I/O scheduler available in blk-mq, mq-deadline, is 0.7 us (mq-deadline is ~800 LOC, against ~10500 LOC for BFQ). Disabling merging provides a further, remarkable benefit in terms of throughput. Merging tends to make many workloads artificially more uneven, mainly because of shared queues remaining non empty for incomparably more time than normal queues. So, if, e.g., one of the queues in a set of merged queues has a higher weight than a normal queue, then the shared queue may inherit such a high weight and, by staying almost always active, may force BFQ to perform I/O plugging most of the time. This evidently makes it harder for BFQ to let the device reach a high throughput. As a practical example of this problem, and of the benefits of this commit, we measured again the throughput in the nasty scenario considered in previous commit messages: dbench test (in the Phoronix suite), with 6 clients, on a filesystem with journaling, and with the journaling daemon enjoying a higher weight than normal processes. With this commit, the throughput grows from ~150 MB/s to ~200 MB/s on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5 SSD. This is the same peak throughput reached by any of the other I/O schedulers. As such, this is also likely to be the maximum possible throughput reachable with this workload on this device, because I/O is mostly random, and the other schedulers basically just pass I/O requests to the drive as fast as possible.

2018-12-07blkcg: fix ref count issue with bio_blkcg() using task_cssDennis Zhou
The bio_blkcg() function turns out to be inconsistent and consequently dangerous to use. The first part returns a blkcg where a reference is owned by the bio meaning it does not need to be rcu protected. However, the third case, the last line, is problematic: return css_to_blkcg(task_css(current, io_cgrp_id)); This can race against task migration and the cgroup dying. It is also semantically different as it must be called rcu protected and is susceptible to failure when trying to get a reference to it. This patch adds association ahead of calling bio_blkcg() rather than after. This makes association a required and explicit step along the code paths for calling bio_blkcg(). In blk-iolatency, association is moved above the bio_blkcg() call to ensure it will not return %NULL. BFQ uses the old bio_blkcg() function, but I do not want to address it in this series due to the complexity. I have created a private version documenting the inconsistency and noting not to use it.

2018-09-21blkcg: fix ref count issue with bio_blkcg using task_cssDennis Zhou (Facebook)
The accessor function bio_blkcg either returns the blkcg associated with the bio or finds one in the current context. This can cause an issue when trying to associate a bio with a blkcg. Particularly, it's the third case that is problematic: return css_to_blkcg(task_css(current, io_cgrp_id)); As the above may race against task migration and the cgroup exiting, it is not always ok to take a reference on the blkcg returned from bio_blkcg. This patch adds association ahead of calling bio_blkcg rather than after. This makes association a required and explicit step along the code paths for calling bio_blkcg. blk_get_rl is modified as well to get a reference to the blkcg it may use and blk_put_rl will always put the reference back. Association is also moved above the bio_blkcg call to ensure it will not return NULL in blk-iolatency. BFQ and CFQ utilize this flaw, but due to the complexity, I do not want to address this in this series. I've created a private version of the function with notes not to use it describing the flaw.
