Subject: [PATCH v12 0/2] Introduce block device LED trigger

Summary
=======

These patches add a new "blkdev" LED trigger that blinks LEDs in
response to disk (or other block device) activity. The first patch is
purely documentation, and the second patch adds the trigger.

It operates very much like the netdev trigger. Device activity
counters are checked periodically, and LEDs are blinked if the correct
type of activity has occurred since the last check. The trigger has no
impact on the actual I/O path.

The trigger is extremely configurable. An LED can be configured to
blink in response to any type (or combination of types) of block device
activity - reads, writes, discards, or cache flushes. The frequency
with which device activity is checked and the duration of LED blinks
can also be set.

The trigger supports many-to-many "link" relationships between block
devices and LEDs. An LED can be linked to multiple block devices, and
a block device can be linked to multiple LEDs. To support these
many-to-many links with a sysfs API, the trigger uses write-only
attributes to create and remove link relationships:

* link_dev_by_path
* unlink_dev_by_path
* unlink_dev_by_name

Existing relationships are shown as symbolic links in subdirectories
beneath the block device and LED sysfs directories:

* /sys/class/block/<DEVICE>/linked_leds
* /sys/class/leds/<LED>/linked_devices

As their names indicate, link_dev_by_path and unlink_dev_by_path each
take a device special file path (e.g. /dev/sda), rather than a kernel
device name. A block device can be unlinked from an LED by writing its
kernel name to the LED's unlink_dev_by_name attribute, but creating a
link does require a path. This is required, because the block
subsystem does not provide an API to get a block device by its kernel
name; only device special file paths (or device major and minor
numbers) are supported.

(I hope that if this module is accepted, it might provide a case for
adding a "by name" API to the block subsystem. A link_dev_by_name
attribute could then be added to this trigger.)

The trigger can be built as a module or built in to the kernel.

Changes from v11:
=================

* Add unlink_dev_by_name attribute, so a block device can be unlinked
from an LED with its kernel name.

Changes from v10:
=================

* Fix kfree() of wrong pointer in blkdev_trig_get_bdev().
* Fix typo in ledtrig-blkdev.rst.

Changes from v9:
================

No changes to sysfs API or module functionality.

Readability changes:

* Added overview and data type comments to describe module structure.

* Reordered module source; eliminated almost all forward declarations.

* Consistently refer to blkdev_trig_led structs as "BTLs."

* Refactored LED-block device unlink function into separate variants for
releasing & not releasing cases; eliminate enum type used as flag.

Changes from v8:
================

* Change sysfs attribute names:
- link_device ==> link_dev_by_path
- unlink_device ==> unlink_dev_by_path

* Update documentation for changed attribute names

* Minor code & comment cleanups

Changes from v7:
================

Fix blkdev_trig_activate() - Lock 'blkdev_trig_mutex' before accessing
'blkdev_trig_next_index'.

Changes from v6:
================

Remove incorrect use of get_jiffies_64(). We use the helper functions in
include/linux/jiffies.h for all time comparisons, so jiffies rolling over
on 32-bit platforms isn't a problem.

Changes from v5:
================

sysfs API changes:

* Frequency with which the block devices associated with an LED are
checked for activity is now a per-LED setting ('check_interval' device
attribute replaces 'interval' class attribute).

* 'mode' device attribute (read/write/rw) is replaced by 4 separate
attributes - 'blink_on_read', 'blink_on_write', 'blink_on_discard', and
'blink_on_flush'.

Logic changes:

* Use jiffies instead of static "generation" variable.

* LED mode is now a bitmask - 1 bit per read, write, discard, and flush.

* When updating block device I/O stats, save separate I/O counter ('ios')
and timestamp ('last_activity') for each activity type, along with
'last_checked' timestamp.

* When checking an LED, save 'last_checked' timestamp.

* When checking LEDs (in delayed work), determine when the next check
needs to be performed (based on each LED's 'last_checked' and
'check_jiffies' values) and schedule the next check accordingly. (See
blkdev_trig_check() at ledtrig-blkdev.c:661.)

* When linking a block device to an LED, modify the delayed work schedule
if necessary. (See blkdev_trig_sched_led() at ledtrig-blkdev.c:416.)

Style changes:

* "Prefix" of data types, static variables, function names, etc. is
changed to 'blkdev_trig' ('BLKDEV_TRIG' for constants).

* Don't declare function parameters and local variables as const.

* Don't explicitly compare return values to 0 - i.e. 'if (ret == 0)'.
Change variable name to 'err' and use 'if (err)' idiom.

* In error path, return directly when no cleanup is required (instead of
jumping to a single exit point).

* Use kzalloc(), rather than kmalloc(), to allocate per-LED structs.

Changes from v4:
================

* Use xarrays, rather than lists, to model "links" between LEDs and block
devices. This allows many-to-many relationships without the need for a
separate link object.

* When resolving (getting) a block device by path, don't retry with
"/dev/" prepended to the path in the ENOENT case.

* Use an enum, rather than a boolean, to tell led_bdev_unlink() whether
the block device is being released or not.

* Use preprocessor constant, rather than magic number, for the mode passed
to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_put().

* Split the data structure used by mode attribute show & store functions
into 2 separate arrays and move them into the functions that use them.

Changes from v3:
================

* Use blkdev_get_by_path() to "resolve" block devices
(struct block_device). With this change, there are now no changes
required to the block subsystem, so there are only 2 patches in this
series.

* link_device and unlink_device attributes now take paths to block device
special files (e.g. /dev/sda), rather than kernel names. Symbolic
links also work.

If the path written to the attribute doesn't exist (-ENOENT), we re-try
with /dev/ prepended, so "simple" names like sda will still work as long
as the corresponding special file exists in /dev.

* Fixed a bug that could cause "phantom" blinks because of old device
activity that was not recognized at the correct time.

* (Slightly) more detailed commit message for the patch that adds the
trigger code. As with v3, the real details are found in the comments
in the source file.

Changes from v2:
================

* Allow LEDs to be "linked" to partitions, as well as whole devices.
Internally, the trigger now works with block_device structs, rather
than gendisk structs.

(Investigating the lifecycle of block_device structs led me to
discover the device resource API, so ...)

* Use the device resource API to manage the trigger's per-block device
data structure (struct led_bdev_bdi). The trigger now uses a release
function to remove references to block devices that have been removed.

Because the release function is automatically called by the driver core,
there is no longer any need for the block layer to explictly call the
trigger's cleanup function.

* Since there is no need to provide a built-in "stub" cleanup function
when the trigger is built as a module, I have removed the always
built-in "core" portion of the trigger.

* Without a built-in component, the module does need access to the
block_class symbol. The second patch in this series exports the symbol
to the LEDTRIG_BLKDEV namespace and explains the reason for doing so.

* Changed the interval sysfs attribute from a device attribute to a class
attribute. It's single value that applies to all LEDs, so it didn't
make sense as a device atribute.

* As requested, I am posting the trigger code (ledtrig-blkdev.c) as a
single patch. This eliminates the commit messages that would otherwise
describe sections of the code, so I have added fairly extensive comments
to each function.

Changes from v1:
================

* Use correct address for LKML.

* Renamed the sysfs attributes used to manage and view the set of block
devices associated ("linked") with an LED.

- /sys/class/leds/<LED>/link_device to create associations

- /sys/class/leds/<LED>/unlink_device to remove associations

- /sys/class/leds/<LED>/linked_devices/ contains symlinks to all block
devices associated with the LED

- /sys/block/<DEVICE>/linked_leds (which only exists when the device is
associated with at least one LED) contains symlinks to all LEDs with
which the device is associated

link_device and unlink_device are write-only attributes, each of which
represents a single action, rather than any state. (The current state
is shown by the symbolic links in the <LED>/linked_devices/ and
<DEVICE>/linked_leds/ directories.)

* Simplified sysfs attribute store functions. link_device and
unlink_device no longer accept multiple devices at once, but this was
really just an artifact of the way that sysfs repeatedly calls the
store function when it doesn't "consume" all of its input, and it
seemed to be confusing and unpopular anyway.

* Use DEVICE_ATTR_* macros (rather than __ATTR) for the sysfs attributes.

* Removed all pr_info() "system administrator error" messages.

* Different minimum values for LED blink time (10 ms) and activity check
interval (25 ms).

v1 summary:
===========

This patch series adds a new "blkdev" LED trigger for disk (or other block
device) activity LEDs.

It has the following functionality.

* Supports all types of block devices, including virtual devices
(unlike the existing disk trigger which only works with ATA devices).

* LEDs can be configured to show read activity, write activity, or both.

* Supports multiple devices and multiple LEDs in arbitrary many-to-many
configurations. For example, it is possible to configure multiple
devices with device-specific read activity LEDs and a shared write
activity LED. (See Documentation/leds/ledtrig-blkdev.rst in the first
patch.)

* Doesn't add any overhead in the I/O path. Like the netdev LED trigger,
it periodically checks the configured devices for activity and blinks
its LEDs as appropriate.

* Blink duration (per LED) and interval between activity checks (global)
are configurable.

* Requires minimal changes to the block subsystem.

- Adds 1 pointer to struct gendisk,

- Adds (inline function) call in device_add_disk() to ensure that the
pointer is initialized to NULL (as protection against any drivers
that allocate a gendisk themselves and don't use kzalloc()), and

- Adds call in del_gendisk() to remove a device from the trigger when
that device is being removed.

These changes are all in patch #4, "block: Add block device LED trigger
integrations."

* The trigger can be mostly built as a module.

When the trigger is modular, a small portion is built in to provide a
"stub" function which can be called from del_gendisk(). The stub calls
into the modular code via a function pointer when needed. The trigger
also needs the ability to find gendisk's by name, which requires access
to the un-exported block_class and disk_type symbols.

+=================================
+Block Device (blkdev) LED Trigger
+=================================
+
+Available when ``CONFIG_LEDS_TRIGGER_BLKDEV=y`` or
+``CONFIG_LEDS_TRIGGER_BLKDEV=m``.
+
+See also:
+
+* ``Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-led-trigger-blkdev``
+* ``Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-block`` (``/sys/block/<disk>/linked_leds``)
+
+Overview
+========
+
+.. note::
+ The examples below use ``<LED>`` to refer to the name of a
+ system-specific LED. If no suitable LED is available on a test
+ system (in a virtual machine, for example), it is possible to
+ use a userspace LED. (See ``Documentation/leds/uleds.rst``.)
+
+Verify that the ``blkdev`` LED trigger is available::
+
+ # grep blkdev /sys/class/leds/<LED>/trigger
+ ... rfkill-none blkdev
+
+(If the previous command produces no output, you may need to load the trigger
+module - ``modprobe ledtrig_blkdev``. If the module is not available, check
+the value of ``CONFIG_LEDS_TRIGGER_BLKDEV`` in your kernel configuration.)
+
+Associate the LED with the ``blkdev`` LED trigger::
+
+ # echo blkdev > /sys/class/leds/<LED>/trigger
+
+ # cat /sys/class/leds/<LED>/trigger
+ ... rfkill-none [blkdev]
+
+Note that several new device attributes are available in the
+``/sys/class/leds/<LED>`` directory.
+
+* ``link_dev_by_path``, ``unlink_dev_by_path``, and ``unlink_dev_by_name`` are
+ used to manage the set of block devices associated with this LED. The LED
+ will blink when activity occurs on any of its linked devices.
+
+* ``blink_on_read``, ``blink_on_write``, ``blink_on_discard``, and
+ ``blink_on_flush`` are boolean values that determine whether the LED will
+ blink when a particular type of activity is detected on one of its linked
+ block devices.
+
+* ``blink_time`` is the duration (in milliseconds) of each blink of this LED.
+ (The minimum value is 10 milliseconds.)
+
+* ``check_interval`` is the frequency (in milliseconds) with which block devices
+ linked to this LED will be checked for activity and the LED blinked (if the
+ correct type of activity has occurred).
+
+* The ``linked_devices`` directory will contain a symbolic link to every device
+ that is associated with this LED.
+
+Link a block device to the LED::
+
+ # echo /dev/sda > /sys/class/leds/<LED>/link_dev_by_path
+
+ # ls /sys/class/leds/<LED>/linked_devices
+ sda
+
+(The value written to ``link_dev_by_path`` must be the path of the device
+special file, such as ``/dev/sda``, that represents the block device - or the
+path of a symbolic link to such a device special file.)
+
+Activity on the device will now cause the LED to blink. The duration of each
+blink (in milliseconds) can be adjusted by setting
+``/sys/class/leds/<LED>/blink_time``. (But see **check_interval and
+blink_time** below.)
+
+Associate a second device with the LED::
+
+ # echo /dev/sdb > /sys/class/leds/<LED>/link_dev_by_path
+
+ # ls /sys/class/leds/<LED>/linked_devices
+ sda sdb
+
+When a block device is linked to one or more LEDs, the LEDs are linked from
+the device's ``linked_leds`` directory::
+
+ # ls /sys/class/block/sd{a,b}/linked_leds
+ /sys/class/block/sda/linked_leds:
+ <LED>
+
+ /sys/class/block/sdb/linked_leds:
+ <LED>
+
+(The ``linked_leds`` directory only exists when the block device is linked to
+at least one LED.)
+
+``check_interval`` and ``blink_time``
+=====================================
+
+* By default, linked block devices are checked for activity every 100
+ milliseconds. This frequency can be changed for an LED via the
+ ``/sys/class/leds/<led>/check_interval`` attribute. (The minimum value is 25
+ milliseconds.)
+
+* All block devices associated with an LED are checked for activity every
+ ``check_interval`` milliseconds, and a blink is triggered if the correct type
+ of activity (as determined by the LED's ``blink_on_*`` attributes) is
+ detected. The duration of an LED's blink is determined by its ``blink_time``
+ attribute. Thus (when the correct type of activity is detected), the LED will
+ be on for ``blink_time`` milliseconds and off for
+ ``check_interval - blink_time`` milliseconds.
+
+* The LED subsystem ignores new blink requests for an LED that is already in
+ in the process of blinking, so setting a ``blink_time`` greater than or equal
+ to ``check_interval`` will cause some blinks to be missed.
+
+* Because of processing times, scheduling latencies, etc., avoiding missed
+ blinks actually requires a difference of at least a few milliseconds between
+ the ``blink_time`` and ``check_interval``. The required difference is likely
+ to vary from system to system. As a reference, a Thecus N5550 NAS requires a
+ difference of 7 milliseconds (e.g. ``check_interval == 100``,
+ ``blink_time == 93``).
+
+* The default values (``check_interval == 100``, ``blink_time == 75``) cause the
+ LED associated with a continuously active device to blink rapidly. For a more
+ "always on" effect, increase the ``blink_time`` (but not too much; see the
+ previous bullet).
+
+Other Notes
+===========
+
+* Many (possibly all) types of block devices work with this trigger, including:
+
+ * SCSI (including SATA and USB) hard disk drives and SSDs
+ * SCSI (including SATA and USB) optical drives
+ * NVMe SSDs
+ * SD cards
+ * loopback block devices (``/dev/loop*``)
+ * device mapper devices, such as LVM logical volumes
+ * MD RAID devices
+ * zRAM compressed RAM-disks
+ * partitions on block devices that support them
+
+* The names of the symbolic links in ``/sys/class/leds/<LED>/linked_devices``
+ are **kernel** names, which may not match the paths used for
+ ``link_dev_by_path`` and ``unlink_dev_by_path``. This is most likely when a
+ symbolic link is used to refer to the device (as is common with logical
+ volumes), but it can be true for any device, because nothing prevents the
+ creation of device special files with arbitrary names (e.g.
+ ``sudo mknod /foo b 8 0``).
+
+ Kernel names can be used to unlink block devices from LEDs by writing them to
+ the LED's ``unlink_dev_by_name`` attribute.
+
+* The ``blkdev`` LED trigger supports many-to-many device/LED associations.
+ A device can be associated with multiple LEDs, and an LED can be associated
+ with multiple devices.
