[SCSI] sd: fix array cache flushing bug causing performance problems

Some arrays synchronize their full non volatile cache when the sd driver sends
a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command.  Unfortunately, they can have Terrabytes of this
and we send a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE for every barrier if an array reports it has a
writeback cache.  This leads to massive slowdowns on journalled filesystems.

The fix is to allow userspace to turn off the writeback cache setting as a
temporary measure (i.e. without doing the MODE SELECT to write it back to the
device), so even though the device reported it has a writeback cache, the
user, knowing that the cache is non volatile and all they care about is
filesystem correctness, can turn that bit off in the kernel and avoid the
performance ruinous (and safety irrelevant) SYNCHRONIZE CACHE commands.

The way you do this is add a 'temporary' prefix when performing the usual
cache setting operations, so

echo temporary write through > /sys/class/scsi_disk/<disk>/cache_type

Akinobu Mita [Tue, 16 Apr 2013 13:11:58 +0000 (22:11 +0900)]
[SCSI] scsi_debug: fix logical block provisioning support

provisioning map (map_storep) is a bitmap accessed by bitops.

So the allocation size should be a multiple of sizeof(unsigned long) and
also the bitmap should be cleared by using bitmap_clear() instead of
memset().

Otherwise it will cause problem on big-endian architecture if the number of
bits is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.

I tried testing the logical block provisioning support in scsi_debug,
but it didn't work as I expected.

For example, load scsi_debug module with UNMAP command supported
and fill the storage with random data.

        # modprobe scsi_debug lbpu=1
        # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdb

Then, try to unmap LBA 0, but Get LBA status reports:

        # sg_unmap --lba=0 --num=1 /dev/sdb
        # sg_get_lba_status --lba=0 /dev/sdb
        descriptor LBA: 0x0000000000000000  blocks: 16384  mapped

This is unexpected result.  Because UNMAP command to LBA 0 finished
without any errors, but Get LBA status shows that LBA 0 is still mapped.

This problem is due to the wrong translation between LBA and index of
provisioning map.  Fix it by using correct translation functions.

[SCSI] scsi_debug: call map_region() and unmap_region() only when needed

If the logical block provisioning is not enabled, map_region() and
unmap_region() have no effect and they don't need to be called.

So this makes map_region() and unmap_region() to be called only
when scsi_debug_lbp() returns true, i.e. logical block provisioning is
enabled.

While I'm at it, this also removes meaningless non-zero check for
scsi_debug_unmap_granularity.

Because scsi_debug_unmap_granularity cannot be zero with usual setting:
scsi_debug_unmap_granularity is 1 by default, and it can be changed to
zero with explicit module parameter setting only when the logical block
provisioning is disabled.  But it is only meaningful module parameter
when the logical block provisioning is enabled.

discovered FCoE VLANs.

If an administrator has manually configured FCoE VLANs on ENodes and FCFs,
there is no need to use this protocol. FIP and FCoE will run over the
configured VLANs.

An ENode without FCoE VLANs configuration would use this automated discovery
protocol to discover over which VLANs FCoE is running.

The ENode sends a FIP VLAN discovery request to a multicast MAC address called
All-FCF-MACs, which is a multicast MAC address to which all FCFs listen.

All FCFs that can be reached in the native VLAN of the ENode are expected to
respond on the same VLAN with a response that lists one or more FCoE VLANs
that are available for the ENode's VN_Port login. This protocol has the sole
purpose of allowing the ENode to discover all the available FCoE VLANs.

Now the ENode may enable a subset of these VLANs for FCoE Running the FIP
protocol in these VLANs on a per VLAN basis. And FCoE data transactions also
would occur on this VLAN. Hence, Except for FIP VLAN discovery, all other FIP
and FCoE traffic runs on the selected FCoE VLAN.  Its only the FIP VLAN
Discovery protocol that is permitted to run on the Default native VLAN of the
system.

We are working on moving this feature definitions and functionality to libfcoe
module. We need this patch to be approved, as Suse is looking forward to merge

Eric Dumazet [Wed, 1 May 2013 05:24:03 +0000 (05:24 +0000)]
af_unix: fix a fatal race with bit fields

Using bit fields is dangerous on ppc64/sparc64, as the compiler [1]
uses 64bit instructions to manipulate them.
If the 64bit word includes any atomic_t or spinlock_t, we can lose
critical concurrent changes.

This is happening in af_unix, where unix_sk(sk)->gc_candidate/
gc_maybe_cycle/lock share the same 64bit word.

This leads to fatal deadlock, as one/several cpus spin forever
on a spinlock that will never be available again.

A safer way would be to use a long to store flags.
This way we are sure compiler/arch wont do bad things.

As we own unix_gc_lock spinlock when clearing or setting bits,
we can use the non atomic __set_bit()/__clear_bit().

recursion_level can share the same 64bit location with the spinlock,
as it is set only with this spinlock held.

Merge branch 'ipc-scalability'

Merge IPC cleanup and scalability patches from Andrew Morton.

This cleans up many of the oddities in the IPC code, uses the list
iterator helpers, splits out locking and adds per-semaphore locks for
greater scalability of the IPC semaphore code.

Most normal user-level locking by now uses futexes (ie pthreads, but
also a lot of specialized locks), but SysV IPC semaphores are apparently
still used in some big applications, either for portability reasons, or
because they offer tracking and undo (and you don't need to have a
special shared memory area for them).

Our IPC semaphore scalability was pitiful.  We used to lock much too big
ranges, and we used to have a single ipc lock per ipc semaphore array.
Most loads never cared, but some do.  There are some numbers in the

of a program wanting to manipulate one semaphore from an array with
