[v4 PATCH] block: introduce block_rq_error tracepoint

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, rasdaemon uses the existing tracepoint block_rq_complete
and filters out non-error cases in order to capture block disk errors.

But there are a few problems with this approach:

1. Even kernel trace filter could do the filtering work, there is
   still some overhead after we enable this tracepoint.

2. The filter is merely based on errno, which does not align with kernel
   logic to check the errors for print_req_error().

3. block_rq_complete only provides dev major and minor to identify
   the block device, it is not convenient to use in user-space.

So introduce a new tracepoint block_rq_error just for the error case
and provides the device name for convenience too. With this patch,
rasdaemon could switch to block_rq_error.

The v3 patch was submitted in Feb 2020, and Steven reviewed the patch, but
it was not merged to upstream. See
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200203053650.8923-1-xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx/.

The problems fixed by that patch still exist and we do need it to make
disk error handling in rasdaemon easier. So this resurrected it and
continued the version number.

v3 --> v4:
 * Rebased to v5.17-rc1.
 * Collected reviewed-by tag from Steven.
