Fix regression in the handling of blkback close events for
devices that are unplugged via QEMU. sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c: Toolstack initiated closures change the frontend's state to Closing. The backend must change to Closing as well, even if we can't actually close yet, in order for the frontend to notice and start the closing process. MFC after: 3 days |

Enhance documentation, improve interoperability, and fix defects in
FreeBSD's front and back Xen blkif interface drivers. sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h: sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c: sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c: Replace FreeBSD specific multi-page ring impelementation with support for both the Citrix and Amazon/RedHat versions of this extension. sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c: o Add a per-instance sysctl tree that exposes all negotiated transport parameters (ring pages, max number of requests, max request size, max number of segments). o In blkfront_vdevice_to_unit() add a missing return statement so that we properly identify the unit number for high numbered xvd devices. sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c: o Add static dtrace probes for several events in this driver. o Defer connection shutdown processing until the front-end enters the closed state. This avoids prematurely tearing down the connection when buggy front-ends transition to the closing state, even though the device is open and they veto the close request from the tool stack. o Add nodes for maximum request size and the number of active ring pages to the exising, per-instance, sysctl tree. o Miscelaneous style cleanup. sys/xen/interface/io/blkif.h: o Add extensive documentation of the XenStore nodes used to implement the blkif interface. o Document the startup sequence between a front and back driver. o Add structures and documenatation for the "discard" feature (AKA Trim). o Cleanup some definitions related to FreeBSD's request number/size/segment-limit extension. sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c: sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusvar.h: Add the convenience function xenbus_get_otherend_state() and use it to simplify some logic in both block-front and block-back.

Xen netback driver rewrite.
share/man/man4/Makefile, share/man/man4/xnb.4, sys/dev/xen/netback/netback.c, sys/dev/xen/netback/netback_unit_tests.c: Rewrote the netback driver for xen to attach properly via newbus and work properly in both HVM and PVM mode (only HVM is tested). Works with the in-tree FreeBSD netfront driver or the Windows netfront driver from SuSE. Has not been extensively tested with a Linux netfront driver. Does not implement LRO, TSO, or polling. Includes unit tests that may be run through sysctl after compiling with XNB_DEBUG defined. sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c, sys/xen/interface/io/netif.h: Comment elaboration. sys/kern/uipc_mbuf.c: Fix page fault in kernel mode when calling m_print() on a null mbuf. Since m_print() is only used for debugging, there are no performance concerns for extra error checking code. sys/kern/subr_scanf.c: Add the "hh" and "ll" width specifiers from C99 to scanf(). A few callers were already using "ll" even though scanf() was handling it as "l".

Several enhancements to the Xen block back driver.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c: o Implement front-end request coalescing. This greatly improves the performance of front-end clients that are unaware of the dynamic request-size/number of requests negotiation available in the FreeBSD backend driver. This required a large restructuring in how this driver records in-flight transactions and how those transactions are mapped into kernel KVA. For example, the driver now includes a mini "KVA manager" that allocates ranges of contiguous KVA to patches of requests that are physically contiguous in the backing store so that a single bio or UIO segment can be used to represent the I/O. o Refuse to open any backend files or devices if the system has yet to mount root. This avoids a panic. o Properly handle "onlined" devices. An "onlined" backend device stays attached to its backing store across front-end disconnections. This feature is intended to reduce latency when a front-end does a hand-off to another driver (e.g. PV aware bootloader to OS kernel) or during a VM reboot. o Harden the driver against a pathological/buggy front-end by carefully vetting front-end XenStore data such as the front-end state. o Add sysctls that report the negotiated number of segments per-request and the number of requests that can be concurrently in flight.

Monitor and emit events for XenStore changes to XenBus trees
of the devices we manage. These changes can be due to writes we make ourselves or due to changes made by the control domain. The goal of these changes is to insure that all state transitions can be detected regardless of their source and to allow common device policies (e.g. "onlined" backend devices) to be centralized in the XenBus bus code. sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusvar.h: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbus.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbus_if.m: Add a new method for XenBus drivers "localend_changed". This method is invoked whenever a write is detected to a device's XenBus tree. The default implementation of this method is a no-op. sys/xen/xenbus/xenbus_if.m: sys/dev/xen/netfront/netfront.c: sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c: sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c: Change the signature of the "otherend_changed" method. This notification cannot fail, so it should return void. sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb_back.c: Add "online" device handling to the XenBus Back Bus support code. An online backend device remains active after a front-end detaches as a reconnect is expected to occur in the near future. sys/xen/interface/io/xenbus.h: Add comment block further explaining the meaning and driver responsibilities associated with the XenBus Closed state. sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb.h: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb_back.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb_front.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb_if.m: o Register a XenStore watch against the local XenBus tree for all devices. o Cache the string length of the path to our local tree. o Allow the xenbus front and back drivers to hook/filter both local and otherend watch processing. o Update the device ivar version of "state" when we detect a XenStore update of that node. sys/dev/xen/control/control.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbus.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb.c: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb.h: sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusvar.h: sys/xen/xenstore/xenstorevar.h: Allow clients of the XenStore watch mechanism to attach a single uintptr_t worth of client data to the watch. This removes the need to carefully place client watch data within enclosing objects so that a cast or offsetof calculation can be used to convert from watch to enclosing object.

sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
Extend the Xen blkif API: Negotiable request size and number of
requests.
This change extends the information recorded in the XenStore
allowing block front/back devices to negotiate for optimal I/O
parameters. This has been achieved without sacrificing backward
compatibility with drivers that are unaware of these protocol
enhancements. The extensions center around the connection protocol
which now includes these additions:
o The back-end device publishes its maximum supported values for,
request I/O size, the number of page segments that can be
associated with a request, the maximum number of requests that
can be concurrently active, and the maximum number of pages that
can be in the shared request ring. These values are published
before the back-end enters the XenbusStateInitWait state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter either the InitWait
or Initialize state. At this point, the front end limits it's
own capabilities to the lesser of the values it finds published
by the backend, it's own maximums, or, should any back-end data
be missing in the store, the values supported by the original
protocol. It then initializes it's internal data structures
including allocation of the shared ring, publishes its maximum
capabilities to the XenStore and transitions to the Initialized
state.
o The back-end waits for the front-end to enter the Initalized
state. At this point, the back end limits it's own capabilities
to the lesser of the values it finds published by the frontend,
it's own maximums, or, should any front-end data be missing in
the store, the values supported by the original protocol. It
then initializes it's internal data structures, attaches to the
shared ring and transitions to the Connected state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter the Connnected
state, transitions itself to the connected state, and can
commence I/O.
Although an updated front-end driver must be aware of the back-end's
InitWait state, the back-end has been coded such that it can
tolerate a front-end that skips this step and transitions directly
to the Initialized state without waiting for the back-end.
sys/xen/interface/io/blkif.h:
o Increase BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST to 255. This is
the maximum number possible without changing the blkif
request header structure (nr_segs is a uint8_t).
o Add two new constants:
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_HEADER_BLOCK, and
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_SEGMENT_BLOCK. These respectively
indicate the number of segments that can fit in the first
ring-buffer entry of a request, and for each subsequent
(sg element only) ring-buffer entry associated with the
"header" ring-buffer entry of the request.
o Add the blkif_request_segment_t typedef for segment
elements.
o Add the BLKRING_GET_SG_REQUEST() macro which wraps the
RING_GET_REQUEST() macro and returns a properly cast
pointer to an array of blkif_request_segment_ts.
o Add the BLKIF_SEGS_TO_BLOCKS() macro which calculates the
number of ring entries that will be consumed by a blkif
request with the given number of segments.
sys/xen/blkif.h:
o Update for changes in interface/io/blkif.h macros.
o Update the BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS() macro to take the
ring size as an argument to allow this calculation on
multi-page rings.
o Add a companion macro to BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS(),
BLKIF_RING_PAGES(). This macro determines the number of
ring pages required in order to support a ring with the
supplied number of request blocks.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
o Negotiate with the other-end with the following limits:
Reqeust Size: MAXPHYS
Max Segments: (MAXPHYS/PAGE_SIZE) + 1
Max Requests: 256
Max Ring Pages: Sufficient to support Max Requests with
Max Segments.
o Dynamically allocate request pools and segemnts-per-request.
o Update ring allocation/attachment code to support a
multi-page shared ring.
o Update routines that access the shared ring to handle
multi-block requests.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
o Track blkfront allocations in a blkfront driver specific
malloc pool.
o Strip out XenStore transaction retry logic in the
connection code. Transactions only need to be used when
the update to multiple XenStore nodes must be atomic.
That is not the case here.
o Fully disable blkif_resume() until it can be fixed
properly (it didn't work before this change).
o Destroy bus-dma objects during device instance tear-down.
o Properly handle backend devices with powef-of-2 sector
sizes larger than 512b.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
Advertise support for and implement the BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER
and BLKIF_OP_FLUSH_DISKCACHE blkif opcodes using BIO_FLUSH and
the BIO_ORDERED attribute of bios.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
Fix various bugs in blkfront.
o gnttab_alloc_grant_references() returns 0 for success and
non-zero for failure. The check for < 0 is a leftover
Linuxism.
o When we negotiate with blkback and have to reduce some of our
capabilities, print out the original and reduced capability before
changing the local capability. So the user now gets the correct
information.
o Fix blkif_restart_queue_callback() formatting. Make sure we hold
the mutex in that function before calling xb_startio().
o Fix a couple of KASSERT()s.
o Fix a check in the xb_remove_* macro to be a little more specific.
sys/xen/gnttab.h:
sys/xen/gnttab.c:
Define GNTTAB_LIST_END publicly as GRANT_REF_INVALID.
sys/dev/xen/netfront/netfront.c:
Use GRANT_REF_INVALID instead of driver private definitions of the
same constant.
sys/xen/gnttab.h:
sys/xen/gnttab.c:
Add the gnttab_end_foreign_access_references() API.
This API allows a client to batch the release of an array of grant
references, instead of coding a private for loop. The implementation
takes advantage of this batching to reduce lock overhead to one
acquisition and release per-batch instead of per-freed grant reference.
While here, reduce the duration the gnttab_list_lock is held during
gnttab_free_grant_references() operations. The search to find the
tail of the incoming free list does not rely on global state and so
can be performed without holding the lock.
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/evtchn.c:
sys/dev/xen/evtchn/evtchn.c:
sys/xen/xen_intr.h:
o Implement the bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler API for HVM mode.
This allows an HVM domain to serve back end devices to other domains.
This API is already implemented for PV mode.
o Synchronize the API between HVM and PV.
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/xenpci.c:
o Scan the full region of CPUID space in which the Xen VMM interface
may be implemented. On systems using SuSE as a Dom0 where the
Viridian API is also exported, the VMM interface is above the region
we used to search.
o Pass through bus_alloc_resource() calls so that XenBus drivers
attaching on an HVM system can allocate unused physical address
space from the nexus. The block back driver makes use of this
facility.
sys/i386/xen/xen_machdep.c:
Use the correct type for accessing the statically mapped xenstore
metadata.
sys/xen/interface/hvm/params.h:
sys/xen/xenstore/xenstore.c:
Move hvm_get_parameter() to the correct global header file instead
of as a private method to the XenStore.
sys/xen/interface/io/protocols.h:
Sync with vendor.
sys/xeninterface/io/ring.h:
Add macro for calculating the number of ring pages needed for an N
deep ring.
To avoid duplication within the macros, create and use the new
__RING_HEADER_SIZE() macro. This macro calculates the size of the
ring book keeping struct (producer/consumer indexes, etc.) that
resides at the head of the ring.
Add the __RING_PAGES() macro which calculates the number of shared
ring pages required to support a ring with the given number of
requests.
These APIs are used to support the multi-page ring version of the
Xen block API.
sys/xeninterface/io/xenbus.h:
Add Comments.
sys/xen/xenbus/...
o Refactor the FreeBSD XenBus support code to allow for both front and
backend device attachments.
o Make use of new config_intr_hook capabilities to allow front and back
devices to be probed/attached in parallel.
o Fix bugs in probe/attach state machine that could cause the system to
hang when confronted with a failure either in the local domain or in
a remote domain to which one of our driver instances is attaching.
o Publish all required state to the XenStore on device detach and
failure. The majority of the missing functionality was for serving
as a back end since the typical "hot-plug" scripts in Dom0 don't
handle the case of cleaning up for a "service domain" that is not
itself.
o Add dynamic sysctl nodes exposing the generic ivars of
XenBus devices.
o Add doxygen style comments to the majority of the code.
o Cleanup types, formatting, etc.
sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusb.c:

Make the newbus subsystem Giant free by adding the new newbus sxlock.
The newbus lock is responsible for protecting newbus internIal structures,
device states and devclass flags. It is necessary to hold it when all
such datas are accessed. For the other operations, softc locking should
ensure enough protection to avoid races.
Newbus lock is automatically held when virtual operations on the device
and bus are invoked when loading the driver or when the suspend/resume
take place. For other 'spourious' operations trying to access/modify
the newbus topology, newbus lock needs to be automatically acquired and
dropped.
For the moment Giant is also acquired in some key point (modules subsystem)
in order to avoid problems before the 8.0 release as module handlers could
make assumptions about it. This Giant locking should go just after
the release happens.
Please keep in mind that the public interface can be expanded in order
to provide more support, if there are really necessities at some point
and also some bugs could arise as long as the patch needs a bit of
further testing.
Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to reflect the newbus lock introduction.

Last step of splitting up minor and unit numbers: remove minor().
Inside the kernel, the minor() function was responsible for obtaining the device minor number of a character device. Because we made device numbers dynamically allocated and independent of the unit number passed to make_dev() a long time ago, it was actually a misnomer. If you really want to obtain the device number, you should use dev2udev(). We already converted all the drivers to use dev2unit() to obtain the device unit number, which is still used by a lot of drivers. I've noticed not a single driver passes NULL to dev2unit(). Even if they would, its behaviour would make little sense. This is why I've removed the NULL check. Ths commit removes minor(), minor2unit() and unit2minor() from the kernel. Because there was a naming collision with uminor(), we can rename umajor() and uminor() back to major() and minor(). This means that the makedev(3) manual page also applies to kernel space code now. I suspect umajor() and uminor() isn't used that often in external code, but to make it easier for other parties to port their code, I've increased __FreeBSD_version to 800062. |
