block: End quiescent sections when a BDS is deleted · 1a6d3bd2

Greg Kurz authored 4 years ago

If a BDS gets deleted during blk_drain_all(), it might miss a
call to bdrv_do_drained_end(). This means missing a call to
aio_enable_external() and the AIO context remains disabled for
ever. This can cause a device to become irresponsive and to
disrupt the guest execution, ie. hang, loop forever or worse.

This scenario is quite easy to encounter with virtio-scsi
on POWER when punching multiple blockdev-create QMP commands
while the guest is booting and it is still running the SLOF
firmware. This happens because SLOF disables/re-enables PCI
devices multiple times via IO/MEM/MASTER bits of PCI_COMMAND
register after the initial probe/feature negotiation, as it
tends to work with a single device at a time at various stages
like probing and running block/network bootloaders without
doing a full reset in-between. This naturally generates many
dataplane stops and starts, and thus many drain sections that
can race with blockdev_create_run(). In the end, SLOF bails
out.

It is somehow reproducible on x86 but it requires to generate
articial dataplane start/stop activity with stop/cont QMP
commands. In this case, seabios ends up looping for ever,
waiting for the virtio-scsi device to send a response to
a command it never received.

Add a helper that pairs all previously called bdrv_do_drained_begin()
with a bdrv_do_drained_end() and call it from bdrv_close().
While at it, update the "/bdrv-drain/graph-change/drain_all"
test in test-bdrv-drain so that it can catch the issue.

qcow2: Skip copy-on-write when allocating a zero cluster · 46cd1e8a

Alberto Garcia authored 4 years ago


Since commit c8bb23cb when a write
request results in a new allocation QEMU first tries to see if the
rest of the cluster outside the written area contains only zeroes.

In that case, instead of doing a normal copy-on-write operation and
writing explicit zero buffers to disk, the code zeroes the whole
cluster efficiently using pwrite_zeroes() with BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK.

This improves performance very significantly but it only happens when
we are writing to an area that was completely unallocated before. Zero
clusters (QCOW2_CLUSTER_ZERO_*) are treated like normal clusters and
are therefore slower to allocate.

This happens because the code uses bdrv_is_allocated_above() rather
bdrv_block_status_above(). The former is not as accurate for this
purpose but it is faster. However in the case of qcow2 the underlying
call does already report zero clusters just fine so there is no reason
why we cannot use that information.

After testing 4KB writes on an image that only contains zero clusters
this patch results in almost five times more IOPS.

qcow2: Report BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO more accurately in bdrv_co_block_status() · d40f4a56

Alberto Garcia authored 4 years ago


If a BlockDriverState supports backing files but has none then any
unallocated area reads back as zeroes.

bdrv_co_block_status() is only reporting this is if want_zero is true,
but this is an inexpensive test and there is no reason not to do it in
all cases.

migration-test: Only hide error if !QTEST_LOG · a4729501

Peter Xu authored 4 years ago

The errors are very useful when debugging qtest failures, especially when
QTEST_LOG=1 is set. Let's allow override MigrateStart.hide_stderr when
QTEST_LOG=1 is specified, because that means the user wants to be verbose.

Not very nice to introduce the first QTEST_LOG env access in migration-test.c,
however it should be handy. Without this patch, I was hacking error_report()
when debugging such errors. Let's make things easier.

migration/postcopy: Release fd before going into 'postcopy-pause' · d246ea50

Peter Xu authored 4 years ago


Logically below race could trigger with the old code:

          test program                        migration thread
          ------------                        ----------------
       wait_until('postcopy-pause')
                                          postcopy_pause()
                                            set_state('postcopy-pause')
       do_postcopy_recover()
         arm s->to_dst_file with new fd
                                            release s->to_dst_file [1]

Here [1] could have released the just-installed recoverying channel.  Then the
migration could hang without really resuming.

Instead, it should be very safe to release the fd before setting the state into
'postcopy-pause', because there's no reason for any other thread to touch it
during 'postcopy-active'.

Dave reported a very rare postcopy recovery hang that the migration-test
program waited for the migration to complete in migrate_postcopy_complete().
We do suspect it's the same thing that we're gonna fix here.  Hard to tell.
However since we've noticed this, fix this irrelevant of the hang report.

We synchronize the requested pages right after a postcopy recovery happens.
This helps to synchronize the prioritized pages on source so that the faulted

migration: Maintain postcopy faulted addresses · 8f8bfffc

Peter Xu authored 4 years ago


Maintain a list of faulted addresses on the destination host for which we're
waiting on.  This is implemented using a GTree rather than a real list to make
sure even there're plenty of vCPUs/threads that are faulting, the lookup will
still be fast with O(log(N)) (because we'll do that after placing each page).
It should bring a slight overhead, but ideally that shouldn't be a big problem
simply because in most cases the requested page list will be short.

Actually we did similar things for postcopy blocktime measurements.  This patch
didn't use that simply because:

  (1) blocktime measurement is towards vcpu threads only, but here we need to
      record all faulted addresses, including main thread and external
      thread (like, DPDK via vhost-user).

  (2) blocktime measurement will require UFFD_FEATURE_THREAD_ID, but here we
      don't want to add that extra dependency on the kernel version since not
      necessary.  E.g., we don't need to know which thread faulted on which
      page, we also don't care about multiple threads faulting on the same
      page.  But we only care about what addresses are faulted so waiting for a
      page copying from src.

  (3) blocktime measurement is not enabled by default.  However we need this by
      default especially for postcopy recover.

Another thing to mention is that this patch introduced a new mutex to serialize
the receivedmap and the page_requested tree, however that serialization does
not cover other procedures like UFFDIO_COPY.
