bcache: fix variable length array abuse in btree_iter

bcache: fix variable length array abuse in btree_iter

commit 3a861560ccb35f2a4f0a4b8207fa7c2a35fc7f31 upstream.

btree_iter is used in two ways: either allocated on the stack with a
fixed size MAX_BSETS, or from a mempool with a dynamic size based on the
specific cache set. Previously, the struct had a fixed-length array of
size MAX_BSETS which was indexed out-of-bounds for the dynamically-sized
iterators, which causes UBSAN to complain.

This patch uses the same approach as in bcachefs's sort_iter and splits
the iterator into a btree_iter with a flexible array member and a
btree_iter_stack which embeds a btree_iter as well as a fixed-length
data array.

bcache: avoid NULL checking to c->root in run_cache_set()

[ Upstream commit 3eba5e0b2422aec3c9e79822029599961fdcab97 ]

In run_cache_set() after c->root returned from bch_btree_node_get(), it
is checked by IS_ERR_OR_NULL(). Indeed it is unncessary to check NULL
because bch_btree_node_get() will not return NULL pointer to caller.

This patch replaces IS_ERR_OR_NULL() by IS_ERR() for the above reason.

bcache: avoid oversize memory allocation by small stripe_size

bcache: avoid oversize memory allocation by small stripe_size

[ Upstream commit baf8fb7e0e5ec54ea0839f0c534f2cdcd79bea9c ]

Arraies bcache->stripe_sectors_dirty and bcache->full_dirty_stripes are
used for dirty data writeback, their sizes are decided by backing device
capacity and stripe size. Larger backing device capacity or smaller
stripe size make these two arraies occupies more dynamic memory space.

Currently bcache->stripe_size is directly inherited from
queue->limits.io_opt of underlying storage device. For normal hard
drives, its limits.io_opt is 0, and bcache sets the corresponding
stripe_size to 1TB (1<<31 sectors), it works fine 10+ years. But for
devices do declare value for queue->limits.io_opt, small stripe_size
(comparing to 1TB) becomes an issue for oversize memory allocations of
bcache->stripe_sectors_dirty and bcache->full_dirty_stripes, while the
capacity of hard drives gets much larger in recent decade.

For example a raid5 array assembled by three 20TB hardrives, the raid
device capacity is 40TB with typical 512KB limits.io_opt. After the math
calculation in bcache code, these two arraies will occupy 400MB dynamic
memory. Even worse Andrea Tomassetti reports that a 4KB limits.io_opt is
declared on a new 2TB hard drive, then these two arraies request 2GB and
512MB dynamic memory from kzalloc(). The result is that bcache device
always fails to initialize on his system.

To avoid the oversize memory allocation, bcache->stripe_size should not
directly inherited by queue->limits.io_opt from the underlying device.
This patch defines BCH_MIN_STRIPE_SZ (4MB) as minimal bcache stripe size
and set bcache device's stripe size against the declared limits.io_opt
value from the underlying storage device,
- If the declared limits.io_opt > BCH_MIN_STRIPE_SZ, bcache device will
set its stripe size directly by this limits.io_opt value.
- If the declared limits.io_opt < BCH_MIN_STRIPE_SZ, bcache device will
set its stripe size by a value multiplying limits.io_opt and euqal or
large than BCH_MIN_STRIPE_SZ.

Then the minimal stripe size of a bcache device will always be >= 4MB.
For a 40TB raid5 device with 512KB limits.io_opt, memory occupied by
bcache->stripe_sectors_dirty and bcache->full_dirty_stripes will be 50MB
in total. For a 2TB hard drive with 4KB limits.io_opt, memory occupied
by these two arraies will be 2.5MB in total.

Such mount of memory allocated for bcache->stripe_sectors_dirty and
bcache->full_dirty_stripes is reasonable for most of storage devices.

bcache: Fix bcache device claiming

Commit 2736e8eeb0cc ("block: use the holder as indication for exclusive
opens") introduced a change that blkdev_put() has to get exclusive
holder of the bdev as an argument. However it overlooked that
register_bdev() and register_cache() overwrite the bdev->bd_holder field
in the block device to point to the real owning object which was not
available at the time we called blkdev_get_by_path(). Messing with bdev
internals like this is a layering violation and it also causes
blkdev_put() to issue warning about mismatching holders.

Fix bcache to reopen the block device with appropriate holder once it is
available which also restores the behavior that multiple bcache caches
cannot claim the same device which was broken by commit 29499ab060fe
("bcache: don't pass a stack address to blkdev_get_by_path").

For blkdev_put this requires adding the holder argument, which provides

bcache: avoid journal no-space deadlock by reserving 1 journal bucket

The journal no-space deadlock was reported time to time. Such deadlock
can happen in the following situation.

When all journal buckets are fully filled by active jset with heavy
write I/O load, the cache set registration (after a reboot) will load
all active jsets and inserting them into the btree again (which is
called journal replay). If a journaled bkey is inserted into a btree
node and results btree node split, new journal request might be
triggered. For example, the btree grows one more level after the node
split, then the root node record in cache device super block will be
upgrade by bch_journal_meta() from bch_btree_set_root(). But there is no
space in journal buckets, the journal replay has to wait for new journal
bucket to be reclaimed after at least one journal bucket replayed. This
is one example that how the journal no-space deadlock happens.

The solution to avoid the deadlock is to reserve 1 journal bucket in
run time, and only permit the reserved journal bucket to be used during
cache set registration procedure for things like journal replay. Then
the journal space will never be fully filled, there is no chance for
journal no-space deadlock to happen anymore.

This patch adds a new member "bool do_reserve" in struct journal, it is
inititalized to 0 (false) when struct journal is allocated, and set to
1 (true) by bch_journal_space_reserve() when all initialization done in
run_cache_set(). In the run time when journal_reclaim() tries to
allocate a new journal bucket, free_journal_buckets() is called to check
whether there are enough free journal buckets to use. If there is only
1 free journal bucket and journal->do_reserve is 1 (true), the last
bucket is reserved and free_journal_buckets() will return 0 to indicate
no free journal bucket. Then journal_reclaim() will give up, and try
next time to see whetheer there is free journal bucket to allocate. By
this method, there is always 1 jouranl bucket reserved in run time.

During the cache set registration, journal->do_reserve is 0 (false), so
the reserved journal bucket can be used to avoid the no-space deadlock.

Just use a non-zero max_discard_sectors as an indicator for discard
support, similar to what is done for write zeroes.

The only places where needs special attention is the RAID5 driver,
which must clear discard support for security reasons by default,
even if the default stacking rules would allow for it.

bcache: fix NULL pointer reference in cached_dev_detach_finish

Commit 0259d4498ba4 ("bcache: move calc_cached_dev_sectors to proper
place on backing device detach") tries to fix calc_cached_dev_sectors
when bcache device detaches, but now we have:

cached_dev_detach_finish
...
bcache_device_detach(&dc->disk);
...
closure_put(&d->c->caching);
d->c = NULL; [*explicitly set dc->disk.c to NULL*]
list_move(&dc->list, &uncached_devices);
calc_cached_dev_sectors(dc->disk.c); [*passing a NULL pointer*]
...

Upper codeflows shows how bug happens, this patch fix the problem by
caching dc->disk.c beforehand, and cache_set won't be freed under us
because c->caching closure at least holds a reference count and closure
callback __cache_set_unregister only being called by bch_cache_set_stop
which using closure_queue(&c->caching), that means c->caching closure
callback for destroying cache_set won't be trigger by previous
closure_put(&d->c->caching).
So at this stage(while cached_dev_detach_finish is calling) it's safe to
access cache_set dc->disk.c.
