1 // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 2 /* 3 * Primary bucket allocation code 4 * 5 * Copyright 2012 Google, Inc. 6 * 7 * Allocation in bcache is done in terms of buckets: 8 * 9 * Each bucket has associated an 8 bit gen; this gen corresponds to the gen in 10 * btree pointers - they must match for the pointer to be considered valid. 11 * 12 * Thus (assuming a bucket has no dirty data or metadata in it) we can reuse a 13 * bucket simply by incrementing its gen. 14 * 15 * The gens (along with the priorities; it's really the gens are important but 16 * the code is named as if it's the priorities) are written in an arbitrary list 17 * of buckets on disk, with a pointer to them in the journal header. 18 * 19 * When we invalidate a bucket, we have to write its new gen to disk and wait 20 * for that write to complete before we use it - otherwise after a crash we 21 * could have pointers that appeared to be good but pointed to data that had 22 * been overwritten. 23 * 24 * Since the gens and priorities are all stored contiguously on disk, we can 25 * batch this up: We fill up the free_inc list with freshly invalidated buckets, 26 * call prio_write(), and when prio_write() finishes we pull buckets off the 27 * free_inc list and optionally discard them. 28 * 29 * free_inc isn't the only freelist - if it was, we'd often to sleep while 30 * priorities and gens were being written before we could allocate. c->free is a 31 * smaller freelist, and buckets on that list are always ready to be used. 32 * 33 * If we've got discards enabled, that happens when a bucket moves from the 34 * free_inc list to the free list. 35 * 36 * There is another freelist, because sometimes we have buckets that we know 37 * have nothing pointing into them - these we can reuse without waiting for 38 * priorities to be rewritten. These come from freed btree nodes and buckets 39 * that garbage collection discovered no longer had valid keys pointing into 40 * them (because they were overwritten). That's the unused list - buckets on the 41 * unused list move to the free list, optionally being discarded in the process. 42 * 43 * It's also important to ensure that gens don't wrap around - with respect to 44 * either the oldest gen in the btree or the gen on disk. This is quite 45 * difficult to do in practice, but we explicitly guard against it anyways - if 46 * a bucket is in danger of wrapping around we simply skip invalidating it that 47 * time around, and we garbage collect or rewrite the priorities sooner than we 48 * would have otherwise. 49 * 50 * bch_bucket_alloc() allocates a single bucket from a specific cache. 51 * 52 * bch_bucket_alloc_set() allocates one or more buckets from different caches 53 * out of a cache set. 54 * 55 * free_some_buckets() drives all the processes described above. It's called 56 * from bch_bucket_alloc() and a few other places that need to make sure free 57 * buckets are ready. 58 * 59 * invalidate_buckets_(lru|fifo)() find buckets that are available to be 60 * invalidated, and then invalidate them and stick them on the free_inc list - 61 * in either lru or fifo order. 62 */ 63 64 #include "bcache.h" 65 #include "btree.h" 66 67 #include <linux/blkdev.h> 68 #include <linux/kthread.h> 69 #include <linux/random.h> 70 #include <trace/events/bcache.h> 71 72 #define MAX_OPEN_BUCKETS 128 73 74 /* Bucket heap / gen */ 75 76 uint8_t bch_inc_gen(struct cache *ca, struct bucket *b) 77 { 78 uint8_t ret = ++b->gen;
