Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] block: introduce new field bd_flags in block_device

From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]>

There are multiple switches in struct block_device, use separate bool
fields for them is not gracefully. Add a new field bd_flags and replace
swithes to a bit, there are no functional changes, and prepare to add
a new switch in the next patch. In order to keep bd_flags in the first
cacheline and prevent layout to be affected, define it as u16.

Also add new helpers to set/clear/test each bit like 'bio->bi_flags'.

It seems like there's atomicity problem with this approach. In the above
code, setting and clearing a bd_flag is *not* atomic with respect to
setting/clearing some other bd_flag. For example, setting/clearing
BD_FLAG_MAKE_IT_FAIL via the /sys interface could race with
setting/clearing BD_FLAG_READ_ONLY via an ioctl, and one of the
two changes could be lost. This problem wouldn't happen when
each flag was a separate field. Admittedly, the likelihood of a
problem with BD_FLAG_MAKE_IT_FAIL is extremely low, but
conceptually the lack of atomicity is still wrong. There might
be a similar problem with BD_FLAG_WRITE_HOLDER, but I
didn't investigate thoroughly.

Currently, bi_flags is unsigned short, and this is the same as
bio_set/clear_flag(), will this behaviour cause any problems?

Thanks for the explanation, however, currently bio->bi_opf,
bio->bi_flags and req->rq_flags, and I can't understand now how do they
prevent to change bit concurrently? I'm probably missing something...

While the block layer has a bit of history of using wrappers for
testing, setting and clearing flags, I have to say I always find them
rather confusing when reading the code.

I know this is copied from the existing field, but can you expand
it a bit?

And also write comments for these.

I suspect you really need an unsigned long and atomic bit ops here.
Even a lock would probably not work on alpha as it could affect
the other fields in the same 32-bit alignment.

All the existed 'bool' flags are not atomic RW, so I think it isn't
necessary to define 'bd_flags' as 'unsigned long' for replacing them.

So because the old code wasn't correct we'll never bother? The new
flag and the new placement certainly make this more critical as well.

Can you explain why the old code was wrong?

1) ->bd_read_only and ->bd_make_it_fail

- set from userspace interface(ioctl or sysfs)
- check in IO code path

so changing it into atomic bit doesn't make difference from user
viewpoint.

2) ->bd_write_holder

disk->open_mutex is held for read & write this flag

3) ->bd_has_submit_bio

This flag is setup as oneshot before adding disk, and check in FS io code
path.

Of course, defining it as 'unsigned long' can extend its future usage, but
it depends on the atomic requirement of each flag itself.


Thanks,
Ming

On architectures that can't do byte-level atomics all three can corrupt
each other, and even worse bd_partno. Granted that is only alpha these
days IIRC, but it's still buggy.

Yeah, C/C++ doesn't provide such guarantee, but many modern ARCHs [1]
guarantees that RW on naturally aligned type is atomic.

I verified the point on x86/arm64/ppc64le by the following code, and
all three STOREs are done in single instruction.

struct data {
int b;
char a;
char a2;
char a3;
char a4;
} __attribute__((aligned(8)));

void atomic_test()
{
struct data d;

d.b = 1;
d.a = 2;
d.a3 = 3;

printf("%d %d %d\n", d.b, d.a, d.a3);
}

bd_has_submit_bio and bd_partno can be thought as read only, and the
two can be corrupted?

bd_dev may have similar trouble with bd_partno for ARCHs which don't
provide atomic RW on naturally aligned int.
