* Add zfs_multihost_interval tunable handler for FreeBSDRyan Moeller2020-06-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | This tunable required a handler to be implemented for ZFS_MODULE_PARAM_CALL. Add the handler so the tunable can be declared in common code. Reviewed-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Ryan Moeller <[email protected]> Closes #10490
* MMP interval and fail_intervals in uberblockOlaf Faaland2019-03-211-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When Multihost is enabled, and a pool is imported, uberblock writes include ub_mmp_delay to allow an importing node to calculate the duration of an activity test. This value, is not enough information. If zfs_multihost_fail_intervals > 0 on the node with the pool imported, the safe minimum duration of the activity test is well defined, but does not depend on ub_mmp_delay: zfs_multihost_fail_intervals * zfs_multihost_interval and if zfs_multihost_fail_intervals == 0 on that node, there is no such well defined safe duration, but the importing host cannot tell whether mmp_delay is high due to I/O delays, or due to a very large zfs_multihost_interval setting on the host which last imported the pool. As a result, it may use a far longer period for the activity test than is necessary. This patch renames ub_mmp_sequence to ub_mmp_config and uses it to record the zfs_multihost_interval and zfs_multihost_fail_intervals values, as well as the mmp sequence. This allows a shorter activity test duration to be calculated by the importing host in most situations. These values are also added to the multihost_history kstat records. It calculates the activity test duration differently depending on whether the new fields are present or not; for importing pools with only ub_mmp_delay, it uses (zfs_multihost_interval + ub_mmp_delay) * zfs_multihost_import_intervals Which results in an activity test duration less sensitive to the leaf count. In addition, it makes a few other improvements: * It updates the "sequence" part of ub_mmp_config when MMP writes in between syncs occur. This allows an importing host to detect MMP on the remote host sooner, when the pool is idle, as it is not limited to the granularity of ub_timestamp (1 second). * It issues writes immediately when zfs_multihost_interval is changed so remote hosts see the updated value as soon as possible. * It fixes a bug where setting zfs_multihost_fail_intervals = 1 results in immediate pool suspension. * Update tests to verify activity check duration is based on recorded tunable values, not tunable values on importing host. * Update tests to verify the expected number of uberblocks have valid MMP fields - fail_intervals, mmp_interval, mmp_seq (sequence number), that sequence number is incrementing, and that uberblock values match tunable settings.

* Increase default zfs_multihost_fail_intervals and import_intervalsOlaf Faaland2019-03-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, when multihost is enabled for a pool, the pool is suspended if (zfs_multihost_fail_intervals*zfs_multihost_interval) ms pass without a successful MMP write. This is the recommended configuration. The default value for zfs_multihost_fail_intervals has been 5, and the default value for zfs_multihost_interval has been 1000, so pool suspension occurred at 5 seconds. There have been multiple cases where a single misbehaving device in a pool triggered a SCSI reset, and all I/O paused for 5-6 seconds. This in turn caused MMP to suspend the pool. In the cases observed, the rest of the devices were healthy and the pool was otherwise correctly performing I/O. The reset was handled correctly by ZFS, and by suspending the pool MMP made replacing the device more difficult as well as forcing the host to be rebooted. Increase the default value of zfs_multihost_fail_intervals to 10, so that MMP tolerates up to 10 seconds of failed MMP writes before suspending the pool. Increase the default value of zfs_multihost_import_intervals to 20, to maintain the 2:1 safety factor. This results in a force import taking approximately 20 seconds when MMP is enabled, with default values.

* MMP writes rotate over leavesOlaf Faaland2019-03-121-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of choosing a leaf vdev quasi-randomly, by starting at the root vdev and randomly choosing children, rotate over leaves to issue MMP writes. This fixes an issue in a pool whose top-level vdevs have different numbers of leaves. The issue is that the frequency at which individual leaves are chosen for MMP writes is based not on the total number of leaves but based on how many siblings the leaves have. For example, in a pool like this: root-vdev +------+---------------+ vdev1 vdev2 | | | +------+-----+-----+----+ disk1 disk2 disk3 disk4 disk5 disk6 vdev1 and vdev2 will each be chosen 50% of the time. Every time vdev1 is chosen, disk1 will be chosen. However, every time vdev2 is chosen, disk2 is chosen 20% of the time. As a result, disk1 will be sent 5x as many MMP writes as disk2. This may create wear issues in the case of SSDs. It also reduces the effectiveness of MMP as it depends on the writes being evenly distributed for the case where some devices fail or are partitioned. The new code maintains a list of leaf vdevs in the pool. MMP records the last leaf used for an MMP write in mmp->mmp_last_leaf. To choose the next leaf, MMP starts at mmp->mmp_last_leaf and traverses the list, continuing from the head if the tail is reached. It stops when a suitable leaf is found or all leaves have been examined. Added a test to verify MMP write distribution is even.

* Record skipped MMP writes in multihost_historyOlaf Faaland2018-03-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once per pass through the MMP thread's loop, the vdev tree is walked to find a suitable leaf to write the next MMP block to. If no such leaf is found, the thread sleeps for a while and resumes at the top of the loop. Add an entry to multihost_history when no leaf can be found, and record the reason in the error column. The error code for such entries is a bitfield, displayed in hex: 0x1 At least one vdev (interior or leaf) was not writeable. 0x2 At least one writeable leaf vdev was found, but it had a pending MMP write. timestamp = the time in seconds since the epoch when no leaf could be found originally. duration = the time (in ns) during which no MMP block was written for this reason. This does not include the preceeding inter-write period nor the following inter-write period. vdev_guid = the number of sequential cycles of the MMP thread looop when this occurred. Sample output, truncated to fit: For records of skipped MMP writes the right-most column, vdev_path, is reported as "-". id txg timestamp error duration mmp_delay vdev_guid ... 936 11 1520036441 0 146264 891422313 1740883117838 ... 937 11 1520036441 0 163956 888356657 7320395061548 ... 938 11 1520036442 0 130690 885314969 7320395061548 ... 939 11 1520036442 0 2001068577 882296582 1740883117838 ... 940 11 1520036443 0 161806 882296582 7320395061548 ... 941 11 1520036443 0x2 0 998020546 1 ... 942 11 1520036444 0 136585 998020546 7320395061548 ... 943 11 1520036444 0x2 0 998020257 1 ... 944 11 1520036445 5 2002662964 994160219 1740883117838 ... 945 11 1520036445 0x2 998073118 994160219 3 ... 946 11 1520036447 0 247136 994160219 7320395061548 ...

* Add callback for zfs_multihost_intervalOlaf Faaland2017-07-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a callback to wake all running mmp threads when zfs_multihost_interval is changed. This is necessary when the interval is changed from a very large value to a significantly lower one, while pools are imported that have the multihost property enabled. Without this commit, the mmp thread does not wake up and detect the new interval until after it has waited the old multihost interval time. A user monitoring mmp writes via the provided kstat would be led to believe that the changed setting did not work. Added a test in the ZTS under mmp to verify the new functionality is working. Added a test to ztest which starts and stops mmp threads, and calls into the code to signal sleeping mmp threads, to test for deadlocks or similar locking issues.

* Multi-modifier protection (MMP)Olaf Faaland2017-07-131-0/+63
Add multihost=on|off pool property to control MMP. When enabled a new thread writes uberblocks to the last slot in each label, at a set frequency, to indicate to other hosts the pool is actively imported. These uberblocks are the last synced uberblock with an updated timestamp. Property defaults to off. During tryimport, find the "best" uberblock (newest txg and timestamp) repeatedly, checking for change in the found uberblock. Include the results of the activity test in the config returned by tryimport. These results are reported to user in "zpool import". Allow the user to control the period between MMP writes, and the duration of the activity test on import, via a new module parameter zfs_multihost_interval. The period is specified in milliseconds. The activity test duration is calculated from this value, and from the mmp_delay in the "best" uberblock found initially. Add a kstat interface to export statistics about Multiple Modifier Protection (MMP) updates. Include the last synced txg number, the timestamp, the delay since the last MMP update, the VDEV GUID, the VDEV label that received the last MMP update, and the VDEV path. Abbreviated output below. $ cat /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/mypool/multihost 31 0 0x01 10 880 105092382393521 105144180101111 txg timestamp mmp_delay vdev_guid vdev_label vdev_path 20468 261337 250274925 68396651780 3 /dev/sda 20468 261339 252023374 6267402363293 1 /dev/sdc 20468 261340 252000858 6698080955233 1 /dev/sdx 20468 261341 251980635 783892869810 2 /dev/sdy 20468 261342 253385953 8923255792467 3 /dev/sdd 20468 261344 253336622 042125143176 0 /dev/sdab 20468 261345 253310522 1200778101278 2 /dev/sde 20468 261346 253286429 0950576198362 2 /dev/sdt 20468 261347 253261545 96209817917 3 /dev/sds 20468 261349 253238188 8555725937673 3 /dev/sdb Add a new tunable zfs_multihost_history to specify the number of MMP updates to store history for. By default it is set to zero meaning that no MMP statistics are stored. When using ztest to generate activity, for automated tests of the MMP function, some test functions interfere with the test. For example, the pool is exported to run zdb and then imported again. Add a new ztest function, "-M", to alter ztest behavior to prevent this. Add new tests to verify the new functionality.
