block_dump观察Linux IO写入的具体文件(mysqld）

一、使用方法：
二、基本原理：
三、总结

很多情况下开发者调测程序需要在Linux下获取具体的IO的状况，目前常用的IO观察工具用vmstat和iostat，具体功能上说当然是iostat更胜一筹，在IO统计上时间点上更具体精细。但二者都是在全局上看到IO，宏观上的数据对于判断IO到哪个文件上毫无帮助，这个时候block_dump的作用就显现出来了。

一、使用方法：

需要先停掉syslog功能，因为具体IO数据要通过printk输出，如果syslog存在，则会往message产生大量IO，干扰正常结果

1 2	suse:~ # service syslog stop Shutting down syslog services done

然后启动block_dump

1	suse:~ # echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/block_dump

先说效果：

suse:~ # dmesg | tail

dmesg(3414): dirtied inode 9594 (LC_MONETARY) on sda1

dmesg(3414): dirtied inode 9238 (LC_COLLATE) on sda1

dmesg(3414): dirtied inode 9241 (LC_TIME) on sda1

dmesg(3414): dirtied inode 9606 (LC_NUMERIC) on sda1

dmesg(3414): dirtied inode 9350 (LC_CTYPE) on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683672 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683680 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683688 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683696 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683704 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683712 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683720 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683728 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683736 on sda1

kjournald(506): WRITE block 3683744 on sda1

通过dmesg信息可以看到IO正在写那些文件，有进程号，inode号，文件名和磁盘设备名；但每个文件写了多少呢，仅仅通过dirtied inode就看不出来了，还需要分析WRITE block，后面的数字并不是真正的块号，而是内核IO层获取的扇区号，除以8即为块号，然后根据debugfs工具的icheck和ncheck选项，就可以获取该文件系统块属于哪个具体文件，具体请google之。

二、基本原理：

block_dump的原理其实很简单，内核在IO层根据标志block_dump在IO提交给磁盘的关口卡主过关的每一个BIO，将它们的数据打出来：

void submit_bio(int rw, struct bio *bio)

{

int count = bio_sectors(bio);

bio->bi_rw |= rw;

* If it's a regular read/write or a barrier with data attached,

* go through the normal accounting stuff before submission.

if (bio_has_data(bio) && !(rw & REQ_DISCARD)) {

if (rw & WRITE) {

count_vm_events(PGPGOUT, count);

} else {

task_io_account_read(bio->bi_size);

count_vm_events(PGPGIN, count);

}

if (unlikely(block_dump)) {

char b[BDEVNAME_SIZE];

printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s(%d): %s block %Lu on %s (%u sectors)n",

current->comm, task_pid_nr(current),

(rw & WRITE) ? "WRITE" : "READ",

(unsigned long long)bio->bi_sector,

bdevname(bio->bi_bdev, b),

count);

}

generic_make_request(bio);

}

具体WRITE block块号和文件系统块号之间的对应关系在submit_bh函数中决定

1	bio->bi_sector = bh->b_blocknr * (bh->b_size >> 9);

inode的block_dump实现是通过block_dump___mark_inode_dirty搞定的，这次把关口架在inode脏数据写回的路上，把每个过关的inode信息打出来：

void __mark_inode_dirty(struct inode *inode, int flags)

{

if (unlikely(block_dump))

block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(inode);

}

static noinline void block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(struct inode *inode)

{

if (inode->i_ino || strcmp(inode->i_sb->s_id, "bdev")) {

struct dentry *dentry;

const char *name = "?";

dentry = d_find_alias(inode);

if (dentry) {

spin_lock(&dentry->d_lock);

name = (const char *) dentry->d_name.name;

}

printk(KERN_DEBUG

"%s(%d): dirtied inode %lu (%s) on %sn",

current->comm, task_pid_nr(current), inode->i_ino,

name, inode->i_sb->s_id);

if (dentry) {

spin_unlock(&dentry->d_lock);

dput(dentry);

}

三、总结

1.内核由很多合适的关口来截获获取的IO信息，不改动内核，也可以用jprobe抢劫很多东西。

2.debugfs在大量的block–>file转换过程总太慢，自己用ext2fs写一个，效率应该能提高很多。
