Subject: [PATCH md-6.9 v2 00/10] md/raid1: refactor read_balance() and some minor fix

From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]>

Changes in v2:
- add new conter in conf for patch 2;
- fix the case choose next idle while there is no other idle disk in
patch 3;
- add some review tag from Xiao Ni for patch 1, 4-8

The original idea is that Paul want to optimize raid1 read
performance([1]), however, we think that the original code for
read_balance() is quite complex, and we don't want to add more
complexity. Hence we decide to refactor read_balance() first, to make
code cleaner and easier for follow up.

Before this patchset, read_balance() has many local variables and many
branches, it want to consider all the scenarios in one iteration. The
idea of this patch is to divide them into 4 different steps:

1) If resync is in progress, find the first usable disk, patch 5;
Otherwise:
2) Loop through all disks and skipping slow disks and disks with bad
blocks, choose the best disk, patch 10. If no disk is found:
3) Look for disks with bad blocks and choose the one with most number of
sectors, patch 8. If no disk is found:
4) Choose first found slow disk with no bad blocks, or slow disk with
most number of sectors, patch 7.

Note that step 3) and step 4) are super code path, and performance
should not be considered.

And after this patchset, we'll continue to optimize read_balance for
step 2), specifically how to choose the best rdev to read.

Yu Kuai (10):
md: add a new helper rdev_has_badblock()
md/raid1: record nonrot rdevs while adding/removing rdevs to conf
md/raid1: fix choose next idle in read_balance()
md/raid1-10: add a helper raid1_check_read_range()

md/raid1: factor out choose_bb_rdev() from read_balance()
md/raid1: factor out the code to manage sequential IO
md/raid1: factor out helpers to choose the best rdev from
read_balance()

Subject: [PATCH md-6.9 v2 05/10] md/raid1-10: factor out a new helper raid1_should_read_first()

From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]>

If resync is in progress, read_balance() should find the first usable
disk, otherwise, data could be inconsistent after resync is done. raid1
and raid10 implement the same checking, hence factor out the checking
to make code cleaner.

Noted that raid1 is using 'mddev->recovery_cp', which is updated after
all resync IO is done, while raid10 is using 'conf->next_resync', which
is inaccurate because raid10 update it before submitting resync IO.
Fortunately, raid10 read IO can't concurrent with resync IO, hence there
is no problem. And this patch also switch raid10 to use
'mddev->recovery_cp'.

Subject: [PATCH md-6.9 v2 10/10] md/raid1: factor out helpers to choose the best rdev from read_balance()

From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]>

The way that best rdev is chosen:

1) If the read is sequential from one rdev:
- if rdev is rotational, use this rdev;
- if rdev is non-rotational, use this rdev until total read length
exceed disk opt io size;

2) If the read is not sequential:
- if there is idle disk, use it, otherwise:
- if the array has non-rotational disk, choose the rdev with minimal
inflight IO;
- if all the underlaying disks are rotational disk, choose the rdev
with closest IO;

There are no functional changes, just to make code cleaner and prepare
for following refactor.

Subject: [PATCH md-6.9 v2 02/10] md/raid1: record nonrot rdevs while adding/removing rdevs to conf

From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]>

For raid1, each read will iterate all the rdevs from conf and check if
any rdev is non-rotational, then choose rdev with minimal IO inflight
if so, or rdev with closest distance otherwise.

Disk nonrot info can be changed through sysfs entry:

/sys/block/[disk_name]/queue/rotational

However, consider that this should only be used for testing, and user
really shouldn't do this in real life. Record the number of non-rotational
disks in conf, to avoid checking each rdev in IO fast path and simplify
read_balance() a little bit.

Subject: [PATCH md-6.9 v2 08/10] md/raid1: factor out choose_bb_rdev() from read_balance()

From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]>

read_balance() is hard to understand because there are too many status
and branches, and it's overlong.

This patch factor out the case to read the rdev with bad blocks from
read_balance(), there are no functional changes.

Hi Kuai

I noticed raid1_run->setup_conf is used to add rdev to conf when
creating raid1. raid1_add_disk is only used for --add/--re-add after
creating array. So we need to add the same logic in setup_conf?

Yes, it's right. I'll add a helper raid1_add_conf(raid1_info, rdev) and
raid1_remove_conf(raid1_info, rdev) to do this, make sure all the places
to modify conf is covered.
