[PATCH v2 05/11] block: Introduce zone write pointer offset caching

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

 



From: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxx>

Not all zoned block devices natively support the zone append command.
E.g. SCSI and ATA disks do not define this command. However, it is
possible to emulate this command at the LLD level using regular write
commands if the write pointer position of zones is known. Introducing
such emulation enables the use of zone append write for all zoned block
device types, therefore simplifying for instance the implementation of
file systems native zoned block device support by avoiding the need for
different write pathes depending on the device capabilities.

To allow devices without zone append command support to emulate its
behavior, introduce a zone write pointer cache attached to the device
request_queue, similarly to the zones bitmaps. To save memory, this
cache stores write pointer offsets relative to each zone start sector
as a 32bits value rather than the 64bits absolute sector position of
each zone write pointer position.

While it would be natural to have each LLD implement as needed zone
write pointer caching, the integration of this cache allocation and
initialization within blk_revalidate_disk_zones() greatly simplifies
the code and avoids potential races between the zone wp array size and
the device known number of zones in the case of changes detected during
device revalidation. Furthermore, initializing the zone wp array
together with the device queue zone bitmaps when
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() execute a full device zone report avoids
the need for an additional full device zone report execution in the LLD
revalidate method. This can significantly reduce the overhead of device
revalidation as larger capacity SMR drives result in very costly full
drive report zones processing. E.g., with a 20TB SMR disks and 256 MB
zones, more than 75000 zones need to be reported using multiple report
zone commands. The added delay of an additional full zone report is
significant and can be avoided with an initialization within
blk_revalidate_disk_zones().

By default, blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will not allocate and
initialize a drive zone wp array. The allocation and initialization of
this cache is done only if a device driver request it with the
QUEUE_FLAG_ZONE_WP_OFST queue flag. The allocation and initialization
of the cache is done in the same manner as for the zone bitmaps, within
the report zones callback function used by blk_revalidate_disk_zones().
In case of changes to the device zone configuration, the cache is
updated under a queue freeze to avoid any race between the device
driver use of the cache and the request queue update.

Freeing of this new cache is done together with the zone bitmaps from
the function blk_queue_free_zone_bitmaps(), renamed here to
blk_queue_free_zone_resources().

Maintaining the write pointer offset values is the responsibility of
the device LLD. The helper function blk_get_zone_wp_offset() is
provided to simplify this task.
