2019-01-24throttle-groups: fix restart coroutine iothread raceStefan Hajnoczi
The following QMP command leads to a crash when iothreads are used: { 'execute': 'device_del', 'arguments': {'id': 'data'} } The backtrace involves the queue restart coroutine where tgm->throttle_state is a NULL pointer because throttle_group_unregister_tgm() has already been called: (gdb) bt full #0 0x00005585a7a3b378 in qemu_mutex_lock_impl (mutex=0xffffffffffffffd0, file=0x5585a7bb3d54 "block/throttle-groups.c", line=412) at util/qemu-thread-posix.c:64 err = <optimized out> __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ = "qemu_mutex_lock_impl" __func__ = "qemu_mutex_lock_impl" #1 0x00005585a79be074 in throttle_group_restart_queue_entry (opaque=0x5585a9de4eb0) at block/throttle-groups.c:412 _f = <optimized out> data = 0x5585a9de4eb0 tgm = 0x5585a9079440 ts = 0x0 tg = 0xffffffffffffff98 is_write = false empty_queue = 255 This coroutine should not execute in the iothread after the throttle group member has been unregistered! The root cause is that the device_del code path schedules the restart coroutine in the iothread while holding the AioContext lock. Therefore the iothread cannot execute the coroutine until after device_del releases the lock - by this time it's too late. This patch adds a reference count to ThrottleGroupMember so we can synchronously wait for restart coroutines to complete. Once they are done it is safe to unregister the ThrottleGroupMember.

2017-09-06block: add throttle block filter driverManos Pitsidianakis
block/throttle.c uses existing I/O throttle infrastructure inside a block filter driver. I/O operations are intercepted in the filter's read/write coroutines, and referred to block/throttle-groups.c The driver can be used with the syntax -drive driver=throttle,file.filename=foo.qcow2,throttle-group=bar which registers the throttle filter node with the ThrottleGroup 'bar'. The given group must be created beforehand with object-add or -object.

2017-09-05block: convert ThrottleGroup to object with QOMManos Pitsidianakis
ThrottleGroup is converted to an object. This will allow the future throttle block filter drive easy creation and configuration of throttle groups in QMP and cli. A new QAPI struct, ThrottleLimits, is introduced to provide a shared struct for all throttle configuration needs in QMP. ThrottleGroups can be created via CLI as -object throttle-group,id=foo,x-iops-total=100,x-.. where x-* are individual limit properties. Since we can't add non-scalar properties in -object this interface must be used instead. However, setting these properties must be disabled after initialization because certain combinations of limits are forbidden and thus configuration changes should be done in one transaction. The individual properties will go away when support for non-scalar values in CLI is implemented and thus are marked as experimental. ThrottleGroup also has a `limits` property that uses the ThrottleLimits struct. It can be used to create ThrottleGroups or set the configuration in existing groups as follows: { "execute": "object-add", "arguments": { "qom-type": "throttle-group", "id": "foo", "props" : { "limits": { "iops-total": 100 } } } } { "execute" : "qom-set", "arguments" : { "path" : "foo", "property" : "limits", "value" : { "iops-total" : 99 } } } This also means a group's configuration can be fetched with qom-get.

2017-09-05block: add aio_context field in ThrottleGroupMemberManos Pitsidianakis
timer_cb() needs to know about the current Aio context of the throttle request that is woken up. In order to make ThrottleGroupMember backend agnostic, this information is stored in an aio_context field instead of accessing it from BlockBackend.

2017-09-05block: move ThrottleGroup membership to ThrottleGroupMemberManos Pitsidianakis
This commit eliminates the 1:1 relationship between BlockBackend and throttle group state. Users will be able to create multiple throttle nodes, each with its own throttle group state, in the future. The throttle group state cannot be per-BlockBackend anymore, it must be per-throttle node. This is done by gathering ThrottleGroup membership details from BlockBackendPublic into ThrottleGroupMember and refactoring existing code to use the structure.

2016-05-19block: Move throttling fields from BDS to BBKevin Wolf
This patch changes where the throttling state is stored (used to be the BlockDriverState, now it is the BlockBackend), but it doesn't actually make it a BB level feature yet. For example, throttling is still disabled when the BDS is detached from the BB. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> Acked-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

2016-05-19block: throttle-groups: Use BlockBackend pointers internallyKevin Wolf
As a first step towards moving I/O throttling to the BlockBackend level, this patch changes all pointers in struct ThrottleGroup from referencing a BlockDriverState to referencing a BlockBackend. This change is valid because we made sure that throttling can only be enabled on BDSes which have a BB attached.

2015-10-23throttle: Remove throttle_group_lock/unlock()Alberto Garcia
The group throttling code was always meant to handle its locking internally. However, bdrv_swap() was touching the ThrottleGroup structure directly and therefore needed an API for that. Now that bdrv_swap() no longer exists there's no need for the throttle_group_lock() API anymore. Signed-off-by: Alberto Garcia <berto@igalia.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2015-10-23block/throttle-groups: Make incref/decref publicMax Reitz
Throttle groups are not necessarily referenced by BDSs alone; a later patch will essentially allow BBs to reference them, too. Make the ref/unref functions public so that reference can be properly accounted for. Their interface is slightly adjusted in that they return and take a ThrottleState pointer, respectively, instead of a ThrottleGroup pointer. Functionally, they are equivalent, but since ThrottleGroup is not meant to be used outside of block/throttle-groups.c, ThrottleState is easier to handle.

2015-06-12throttle: acquire the ThrottleGroup lock in bdrv_swap()Alberto Garcia
bdrv_swap() touches the fields of a BlockDriverState that are protected by the ThrottleGroup lock. Although those fields end up in their original place, they are temporarily swapped in the process, so there's a chance that an operation on a member of the same group happening on a different thread can try to use them.

2015-06-12throttle: Add throttle group supportAlberto Garcia
The throttle group support use a cooperative round robin scheduling algorithm. The principles of the algorithm are simple: - Each BDS of the group is used as a token in a circular way. - The active BDS computes if a wait must be done and arms the right timer. - If a wait must be done the token timer will be armed so the token will become the next active BDS.
