From 6d544bb4d9019c3a0d7ee4af1e4bbbd61a6e16dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zach Brown Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2006 02:20:54 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] dio: centralize completion in dio_complete() There have been a lot of bugs recently due to the way direct_io_worker() tries to decide how to finish direct IO operations. In the worst examples it has failed to call aio_complete() at all (hang) or called it too many times (oops). This set of patches cleans up the completion phase with the goal of removing the complexity that lead to these bugs. We end up with one path that calculates the result of the operation after all off the bios have completed. We decide when to generate a result of the operation using that path based on the final release of a refcount on the dio structure. I tried to progress towards the final state in steps that were relatively easy to understand. Each step should compile but I only tested the final result of having all the patches applied. I've tested these on low end PC drives with aio-stress, the direct IO tests I could manage to get running in LTP, orasim, and some home-brew functional tests. In http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/9/21/103 IBM reports success with ext2 and ext3 running DIO LTP tests. They found that XFS bug which has since been addressed in the patch series. This patch: The mechanics which decide the result of a direct IO operation were duplicated in the sync and async paths. The async path didn't check page_errors which can manifest as silently returning success when the final pointer in an operation faults and its matching file region is filled with zeros. The sync path and async path differed in whether they passed errors to the caller's dio->end_io operation. The async path was passing errors to it which trips an assertion in XFS, though it is apparently harmless. This centralizes the completion phase of dio ops in one place. AIO will now return EFAULT consistently and all paths fall back to the previously sync behaviour of passing the number of bytes 'transferred' to the dio->end_io callback, regardless of errors. dio_await_completion() doesn't have to propogate EIO from non-uptodate bios now that it's being propogated through dio_complete() via dio->io_error. This lets it return void which simplifies its sole caller.
