When mutipath_message is called with an action and a device, it needs to
find the pgpath that matches that device. dm_get_device() is not the
right function for this. dm_get_device() will look for a table_device
matching the requested path in use by either the live or inactive table.
If it doesn't find the device, dm_get_device() will open it and add it
to the table. Means that multipath_message will accept any block device,
add it to the table if not present, and then look through the pgpaths
to see if it finds a match. Afterwards it will remove the device if it
was not previously in the table devices list.
This is the only function that can modify the device list of a table
besides the constructors and destructors, and it can only do this when
it was passed an invalid message. Instead, multipath_message() should
call dm_devt_from_path() to get the device dev_t, and match that against
its pgpaths.

The precision loss of reading IO start_time with jiffies_to_nsecs
instead of using a high resolution timer degrades HST path prediction
for BIO-based mpath on high load workloads.
Below, I show the utilization percentage of a 10 disk multipath with
asymmetrical disk access cost, while being exercised by a randwrite FIO
benchmark with high submission queue depth (depth=64). It is possible
to see that the HST path selection degrades heavily for high-iops in
BIO-mpath, underutilizing the slower paths way beyond expected. This
seems to be caused by the start_time truncation, which makes some IO to
seem much slower than it actually is. In this scenario ST outperforms
HST for bio-mpath, but not for mq-mpath, which already uses ktime_get_ns().
The third column shows utilization with this patch applied. It is easy
to see that now HST prediction is much closer to the ideal distribution
(calculated considering the real cost of each path).
| | ST | HST (orig) | HST(ktime) | Best |
| sdd | 0.17 | 0.20 | 0.17 | 0.18 |
| sde | 0.17 | 0.20 | 0.17 | 0.18 |
| sdf | 0.17 | 0.20 | 0.17 | 0.18 |
| sdg | 0.06 | 0.00 | 0.06 | 0.04 |
| sdh | 0.03 | 0.00 | 0.03 | 0.02 |
| sdi | 0.03 | 0.00 | 0.03 | 0.02 |
| sdj | 0.02 | 0.00 | 0.01 | 0.01 |
| sdk | 0.02 | 0.00 | 0.01 | 0.01 |
| sdl | 0.17 | 0.20 | 0.17 | 0.18 |
| sdm | 0.17 | 0.20 | 0.17 | 0.18 |
This issue was originally discussed [1] when we first merged HST, and
this patch was left as a low hanging fruit to be solved later.
Regarding the implementation, as suggested by Mike in that mail thread,
in order to avoid the overhead of ktime_get_ns for other selectors, this
patch adds a flag for the selector code to request the high-resolution
timer.
I tested this using the same benchmark used in the original HST submission.

Certain DM targets ('integrity', 'multipath', 'verity') need to update the

in the 'integrity' target is measured twice, the 'verity' target is
missing the attribute "root_hash_sig_key_desc=%s", and the 'multipath'
target needs to index the attributes properly.
Update 'integrity' target to remove the duplicate measurement of
the attribute "mode=%c". Add "root_hash_sig_key_desc=%s" attribute
for the 'verity' target. Index various attributes in 'multipath'

For device mapper targets to take advantage of IMA's measurement

01. cache
02. crypt
03. integrity
04. linear
05. mirror
06. multipath
07. raid
08. snapshot
09. striped
10. verity
For rest of the targets, handle the STATUSTYPE_IMA case by setting the
measurement buffer to NULL.
For IMA to measure the data on a given system, the IMA policy on the
system needs to be updated to have the following line, and the system
needs to be restarted for the measurements to take effect.
/etc/ima/ima-policy
measure func=CRITICAL_DATA label=device-mapper template=ima-buf
The measurements will be reflected in the IMA logs, which are located at:
/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/binary_runtime_measurements
These IMA logs can later be consumed by various attestation clients
running on the system, and send them to external services for attesting
the system.
The DM target data measured by IMA subsystem can alternatively
be queried from userspace by setting DM_IMA_MEASUREMENT_FLAG with
DM_TABLE_STATUS_CMD.

Commit 935fcc56ab ("dm mpath: only flush workqueue when needed")
changed flush_multipath_work() to avoid needless workqueue
flushing (of a multipath global workqueue). But that change didn't
realize the surrounding flush_multipath_work() code should also only
run if 'pg_init_in_progress' is set.
Fix this by only doing all of flush_multipath_work()'s PG init related
work if 'pg_init_in_progress' is set.
Otherwise multipath_wait_for_pg_init_completion() will run
unconditionally but the preceeding flush_workqueue(kmpath_handlerd)
may not. This could lead to deadlock (though only if kmpath_handlerd
never runs a corresponding work to decrement 'pg_init_in_progress').
It could also be, though highly unlikely, that the kmpath_handlerd
work that does PG init completes before 'pg_init_in_progress' is set,
and then an intervening DM table reload's multipath_postsuspend()
triggers flush_multipath_work().

Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
Do not allow saving disabled queue_if_no_path if already saved as
enabled; implies multiple suspends (which shouldn't ever happen). Log
if this unlikely scenario is ever triggered.
Also, only write MPATHF_SAVED_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH during presuspend or if
"fail_if_no_path" message. MPATHF_SAVED_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH is no longer
always modified, e.g.: even if queue_if_no_path()'s save_old_value
argument wasn't set. This just implies a bit tighter control over
the management of MPATHF_SAVED_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH. Side-effect is
multipath_resume() doesn't reset MPATHF_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH unless
MPATHF_SAVED_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH was set (during presuspend); and at that
time the MPATHF_SAVED_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH bit gets cleared. So
MPATHF_SAVED_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH's use is much more narrow in scope.
Last, but not least, do _not_ disable queue_if_no_path during noflush
suspend. There is no need/benefit to saving off queue_if_no_path via
MPATHF_SAVED_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH and clearing MPATHF_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH for
noflush suspend -- by avoiding this needless queue_if_no_path flag
churn there is less potential for MPATHF_QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH to get lost.
Which avoids potential for IOs to be errored back up to userspace
during DM multipath's handling of path failures.
That said, this last change papers over a reported issue concerning
request-based dm-multipath's interaction with blk-mq, relative to
suspend and resume: multipath_endio is being called _before_
multipath_resume. This should never happen if DM suspend's
blk_mq_quiesce_queue() + dm_wait_for_completion() is genuinely waiting
for all inflight blk-mq requests to complete. Similarly:
drivers/md/dm.c:__dm_resume() clearly calls dm_table_resume_targets()
_before_ dm_start_queue()'s blk_mq_unquiesce_queue() is called. If
the queue isn't even restarted until after multipath_resume(); the BIG
question that still needs answering is: how can multipath_end_io beat
multipath_resume in a race!?

SCSI LUN passthrough code such as qemu's "scsi-block" device model
pass every IO to the host via SG_IO ioctls. Currently, dm-multipath
calls choose_pgpath() only in the block IO code path, not in the ioctl
code path (unless current_pgpath is NULL). This has the effect that no
path switching and thus no load balancing is done for SCSI-passthrough
IO, unless the active path fails.
Fix this by using the same logic in multipath_prepare_ioctl() as in
multipath_clone_and_map().
Note: The allegedly best path selection algorithm, service-time,
still wouldn't work perfectly, because the io size of the current
request is always set to 0. Changing that for the IO passthrough
case would require the ioctl cmd and arg to be passed to dm's
prepare_ioctl() method.

Add a configurable timeout mechanism to disable queue_if_no_path without
assistance from userspace multipathd. This reimplements multipathd's
no_path_retry mechanism in kernel space. This is motivated by the
desire to prevent processes from hanging indefinitely waiting for IO
in cases where multipathd might be unable to respond (after a failure
or for whatever reason).
Despite replicating userspace multipathd's policy configuration in
kernel space, it is important to prevent IOs from hanging forever,
waiting for userspace that may be incapable of behaving correctly.
Use of the provided "queue_if_no_path_timeout_secs" dm-multipath
module parameter is optional. This timeout mechanism is disabled by
default (by being set to 0).

Removes the branching for edge-case where no SCSI device handler
exists. The __map_bio_fast() method was far too limited, by only
selecting a new pathgroup or path IFF there was a path failure, fix this
be eliminating it in favor of __map_bio(). __map_bio()'s extra SCSI
device handler specific MPATHF_PG_INIT_REQUIRED test is not in the fast
path anyway.
This change restores full path selector functionality for bio-based
configurations that don't haave a SCSI device handler. But it should be
noted that the path selectors do have an impact on performance for
certain networks that are extremely fast (and don't require frequent
switching).

Commit b592211c33 ("dm mpath: fix attached_handler_name leak and
dangling hw_handler_name pointer") fixed a memory leak for the case
where setup_scsi_dh() returns failure. But setup_scsi_dh may return
success and not "use" attached_handler_name if the
retain_attached_hwhandler flag is not set on the map. As setup_scsi_sh
properly "steals" the pointer by nullifying it, freeing it
unconditionally in parse_path() is safe.
