From 4a02b34e0cf1d0d0dd3737702841da4bf615a50a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Snitzer Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2013 12:20:57 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] dm thin: switch to read-only mode if metadata space is exhausted Switch the thin pool to read-only mode in alloc_data_block() if dm_pool_alloc_data_block() fails because the pool's metadata space is exhausted. Differentiate between data and metadata space in messages about no free space available. This issue was noticed with the device-mapper-test-suite using: dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n /exhausting_metadata_space_causes_fail_mode/ The quantity of errors logged in this case must be reduced. before patch: device-mapper: thin: 253:4: reached low water mark for metadata device: sending event. device-mapper: space map metadata: unable to allocate new metadata block device-mapper: space map common: dm_tm_shadow_block() failed device-mapper: space map metadata: unable to allocate new metadata block device-mapper: space map common: dm_tm_shadow_block() failed device-mapper: space map metadata: unable to allocate new metadata block device-mapper: space map common: dm_tm_shadow_block() failed device-mapper: space map metadata: unable to allocate new metadata block device-mapper: space map common: dm_tm_shadow_block() failed device-mapper: space map metadata: unable to allocate new metadata block device-mapper: space map common: dm_tm_shadow_block() failed device-mapper: space map metadata: unable to allocate new metadata block device-mapper: thin: 253:4: commit failed: error = -28 device-mapper: thin: 253:4: switching pool to read-only mode after patch: device-mapper: thin: 253:4: reached low water mark for metadata device: sending event. device-mapper: space map metadata: unable to allocate new metadata block device-mapper: thin: 253:4: no free metadata space available. device-mapper: thin: 253:4: switching pool to read-only mode Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer Acked-by: Joe Thornber Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org --- drivers/md/dm-thin.c | 12 ++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/md/dm-thin.c b/drivers/md/dm-thin.c index 24327ad..44ee489 100644 --- a/drivers/md/dm-thin.c +++ b/drivers/md/dm-thin.c @@ -959,7 +959,7 @@ static int alloc_data_block(struct thin_c *tc, dm_block_t *result) * table reload). */ if (!free_blocks) { - DMWARN("%s: no free space available.", + DMWARN("%s: no free data space available.", dm_device_name(pool->pool_md)); spin_lock_irqsave(&pool->lock, flags); pool->no_free_space = 1; @@ -969,8 +969,16 @@ static int alloc_data_block(struct thin_c *tc, dm_block_t *result) } r = dm_pool_alloc_data_block(pool->pmd, result); - if (r) + if (r) { + if (r == -ENOSPC && + !dm_pool_get_free_metadata_block_count(pool->pmd, &free_blocks) && + !free_blocks) { + DMWARN("%s: no free metadata space available.", + dm_device_name(pool->pool_md)); + set_pool_mode(pool, PM_READ_ONLY); + } return r; + } return 0; } -- 2.7.4
