The libata tag allocation is using a round-robin policy. Next patch will
make libata use block generic tag allocation, so let's add a policy to
tag allocation.
Currently two policies: FIFO (default) and round-robin.

blkdev_issue_discard() will zero a given block range. This is done by
way of explicit writing, thus provisioning or allocating the blocks on
disk.
There are use cases where the desired behavior is to zero the blocks but
unprovision them if possible. The blocks must deterministically contain
zeroes when they are subsequently read back.
This patch adds a flag to blkdev_issue_zeroout() that provides this
variant. If the discard flag is set and a block device guarantees
discard_zeroes_data we will use REQ_DISCARD to clear the block range. If
the device does not support discard_zeroes_data or if the discard
request fails we will fall back to first REQ_WRITE_SAME and then a
regular REQ_WRITE.
Also update the callers of blkdev_issue_zero() to reflect the new flag
and make sb_issue_zeroout() prefer the discard approach.

In order to support accesses to larger chunks of memory, pass in a
'size' parameter (counted in bytes), and return the amount available at
that address.
Add a new helper function, bdev_direct_access(), to handle common
functionality including partition handling, checking the length requested
is positive, checking for the sector being page-aligned, and checking
the length of the request does not pass the end of the partition.

Pull block driver core update from Jens Axboe:
"This is the pull request for the core block IO changes for 3.19. Not
a huge round this time, mostly lots of little good fixes:
- Fix a bug in sysfs blktrace interface causing a NULL pointer
dereference, when enabled/disabled through that API. From Arianna
Avanzini.
- Various updates/fixes/improvements for blk-mq:
- A set of updates from Bart, mostly fixing buts in the tag
handling.
- Cleanup/code consolidation from Christoph.
- Extend queue_rq API to be able to handle batching issues of IO
requests. NVMe will utilize this shortly. From me.
- A few tag and request handling updates from me.
- Cleanup of the preempt handling for running queues from Paolo.
- Prevent running of unmapped hardware queues from Ming Lei.
- Move the kdump memory limiting check to be in the correct
location, from Shaohua.
- Initialize all software queues at init time from Takashi. This
prevents a kobject warning when CPUs are brought online that
weren't online when a queue was registered.
- Single writeback fix for I_DIRTY clearing from Tejun. Queued with
the core IO changes, since it's just a single fix.
- Version X of the __bio_add_page() segment addition retry from
Maurizio. Hope the Xth time is the charm.

This time we have some more new material than we used to have during
the last couple of development cycles.
The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified
interface for accessing device properties provided by platform
firmware. It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and
drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come
from as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes
them available. It covers both devices and "bare" device node
objects without struct device representation as that turns out to
be necessary in some cases. This has been in the works for quite
a few months (and development cycles) and has been approved by
all of the relevant maintainers.
On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface
(at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are
made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate
GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO information
in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines (in which
case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it knows about
the device in question). That also has been approved by the GPIO
core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use it.
Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver.
It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by
the processor in which case it will be enabled by default. However,
it can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary.
Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI
operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated
Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms.
That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for
thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting
and so on.
Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration
information in a limited way. Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect
off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very
indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an
operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the
device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller).
The support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery
driver work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to
cover some other use cases in the future.
Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor.
In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the
place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream
release.
As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver
for Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of
the DMA engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact
with the thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight
driver should handle some more corner cases, among other things.
On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions
in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some
random and strange looking failures on some systems.
In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series
of commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME
configuration option. That was triggered by a discussion
regarding the generic power domains code during which we realized
that trying to support certain combinations of PM config options
was painful and not really worth it, because nobody would use them
in production anyway. For this reason, we decided to make
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the
conclusion that the latter became redundant and CONFIG_PM could
be used instead of it. The material here makes that replacement
in a major part of the tree, but there will be at least one more
batch of that in the second part of the merge window.
Specifics:
- Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI
_DSD device configuration objects and a unified device properties
interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that.
As stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows
device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI)
agnostic way. The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers
are now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem
is additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names
to GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is
not present or does not provide the expected data). The changes
in this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki,
Aaron Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam,
Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described
in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate
driver. CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is
supported by the processor. If supported, it will be enabled
automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in
the kernel command line. From Dirk Brandewie.
- New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie).
- Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions
used by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR
platforms for power resource control and thermal management
(Aaron Lu).
- Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies
between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects
and deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based
on the _DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A
(Lan Tianyu).
- New cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor (Kelvin Cheung).
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20141107 which only affects
tools (Bob Moore).
- Fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling
code and in the ACPI code related to system suspend and resume
(Lv Zheng and Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions
management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had
been allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs
queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics
driver (and elsewhere). The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in
that code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue
go away. From Konstantin Khlebnikov.
- ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power
management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly.
The problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support
of its own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device
having ACPI PM support goes into D3cold. To work around that,
the PM domain used by the ACPI LPSS driver is redesigned so at
least one device with ACPI PM support will be on as long as the
DMA engine is in use. From Andy Shevchenko.
- ACPI backlight driver fix to avoid using it on "Win8-compatible"
systems where it doesn't work and where it was used by default by
mistake (Aaron Lu).
- Assorted minor ACPI core fixes and cleanups from Tomasz Nowicki,
Sudeep Holla, Huang Rui, Hanjun Guo, Fabian Frederick, and
Ashwin Chaugule (mostly related to the upcoming ARM64 support).
- Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) power capping driver
fixes and improvements including new processor IDs (Jacob Pan).
- Generic power domains modification to power up domains after
attaching devices to them to meet the expectations of device
drivers and bus types assuming devices to be accessible at
probe time (Ulf Hansson).
- Preliminary support for controlling device clocks from the
generic power domains core code and modifications of the
ARM/shmobile platform to use that feature (Ulf Hansson).
- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the generic power
domains core code (Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the device clocks control
code in the PM core (Geert Uytterhoeven, Grygorii Strashko).
- Consolidation of device power management Kconfig options by making
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and removing the latter
which is now redundant (Rafael J Wysocki and Kevin Hilman). That
is the first batch of the changes needed for this purpose.
- Core device runtime power management support code cleanup related
to the execution of callbacks (Andrzej Hajda).
- cpuidle ARM support improvements (Lorenzo Pieralisi).
- cpuidle cleanup related to the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_VALID flag and
a new MAINTAINERS entry for ARM Exynos cpuidle (Daniel Lezcano and
Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).
- New cpufreq driver callback (->ready) to be executed when the
cpufreq core is ready to use a given policy object and cpufreq-dt
driver modification to use that callback for cooling device
registration (Viresh Kumar).
- cpufreq core fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar, Vince Hsu,
James Geboski, Tomeu Vizoso).
- Assorted fixes and cleanups in the cpufreq-pcc, intel_pstate,
cpufreq-dt, pxa2xx cpufreq drivers (Lenny Szubowicz, Ethan Zhao,
Stefan Wahren, Petr Cvek).
- OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework modification to
allow OPPs to be removed too and update of a few cpufreq drivers
(cpufreq-dt, exynos5440, imx6q, cpufreq) to remove OPPs (added
during initialization) on driver removal (Viresh Kumar).
- Hibernation core fixes and cleanups (Tina Ruchandani and
Markus Elfring).

Currently scsi piggy backs on the block layer to define the concept
of a tagged command. But we want to be able to have block-level host-wide
tags assigned even for untagged commands like the initial INQUIRY, so add
a new SCSI-level flag for commands that are tagged at the scsi level, so
that even commands without that set can have tags assigned to them. Note
that this alredy is the case for the blk-mq code path, and this just lets
the old path catch up with it.
We also set this flag based upon sdev->simple_tags instead of the block
queue flag, so that it is entirely independent of the block layer tagging,
and thus always correct even if a driver doesn't use block level tagging
yet.
Also remove the old blk_rq_tagged; it was only used by SCSI drivers, and
removing it forces them to look for the proper replacement.

Commit 4eaf99bead switched to returning bool and as a result reversed
the logic of the integrity merge checks. However, the empty stubs used
when the block integrity code is compiled out were still returning
0. Make these stubs return "true".

Set max_sectors to the value the drivers provides as hardware limit by
default. Linux had proper I/O throttling for a long time and doesn't
rely on a artifically small maximum I/O size anymore. By not limiting
the I/O size by default we remove an annoying tuning step required for
most Linux installation.
Note that both the user, and if absolutely required the driver can still
impose a limit for FS requests below max_hw_sectors_kb.

Pull core block layer changes from Jens Axboe:
"This is the core block IO pull request for 3.18. Apart from the new
and improved flush machinery for blk-mq, this is all mostly bug fixes
and cleanups.
- blk-mq timeout updates and fixes from Christoph.
- Removal of REQ_END, also from Christoph. We pass it through the
->queue_rq() hook for blk-mq instead, freeing up one of the request
bits. The space was overly tight on 32-bit, so Martin also killed
REQ_KERNEL since it's no longer used.
- blk integrity updates and fixes from Martin and Gu Zheng.
- Update to the flush machinery for blk-mq from Ming Lei. Now we
have a per hardware context flush request, which both cleans up the
code should scale better for flush intensive workloads on blk-mq.
- Improve the error printing, from Rob Elliott.
- Backing device improvements and cleanups from Tejun.
- Fixup of a misplaced rq_complete() tracepoint from Hannes.
- Make blk_get_request() return error pointers, fixing up issues
where we NULL deref when a device goes bad or missing. From Joe
Lawrence.
- Prep work for drastically reducing the memory consumption of dm
devices from Junichi Nomura. This allows creating clone bio sets
without preallocating a lot of memory.
- Fix a blk-mq hang on certain combinations of queue depths and
hardware queues from me.
- Limit memory consumption for blk-mq devices for crash dump
scenarios and drivers that use crazy high depths (certain SCSI
shared tag setups). We now just use a single queue and limited
depth for that"

The math in both blk_stack_limits() and queue_limit_alignment_offset()
assume that a block device's io_min (aka minimum_io_size) is always a
power-of-2. Fix the math such that it works for non-power-of-2 io_min.
This issue (of alignment_offset != 0) became apparent when testing
dm-thinp with a thinp blocksize that matches a RAID6 stripesize of
1280K. Commit fdfb4c8c1 ("dm thin: set minimum_io_size to pool's data
block size") unlocked the potential for alignment_offset != 0 due to
the dm-thin-pool's io_min possibly being a non-power-of-2.

Make the choice of checksum a per-I/O property by introducing a flag
that can be inspected by the SCSI layer. There are several reasons for
this:
1. It allows us to switch choice of checksum without unloading and
reloading the HBA driver.
2. During error recovery we need to be able to tell the HBA that
checksums read from disk should not be verified and converted to IP
checksums.
3. For error injection purposes we need to be able to write a bad guard
tag to storage. Since the storage device only supports T10 CRC we
need to be able to disable IP checksum conversion on the HBA.

For commands like REQ_COPY we need a way to pass extra information along
with each bio. Like integrity metadata this information must be
available at the bottom of the stack so bi_private does not suffice.
Rename the existing bi_integrity field to bi_special and make it a union
so we can have different bio extensions for each class of command.
We previously used bi_integrity != NULL as a way to identify whether a
bio had integrity metadata or not. Introduce a REQ_INTEGRITY to be the

bdev_get_queue() returns the request_queue associated with the
specified block_device. blk_get_backing_dev_info() makes use of
bdev_get_queue() to determine the associated bdi given a block_device.
All the callers of bdev_get_queue() including
blk_get_backing_dev_info() assume that bdev_get_queue() may return
NULL and implement NULL handling; however, bdev_get_queue() requires
the passed in block_device is opened and attached to its gendisk.
Because an active gendisk always has a valid request_queue associated
with it, bdev_get_queue() can never return NULL and neither can
blk_get_backing_dev_info().
Make it clear that neither of the two functions can return NULL and
remove NULL handling from all the callers.

Currently, blk-mq uses a percpu_counter to keep track of how many
usages are in flight. The percpu_counter is drained while freezing to
ensure that no usage is left in-flight after freezing is complete.
blk_mq_queue_enter/exit() and blk_mq_[un]freeze_queue() implement this
per-cpu gating mechanism.
This type of code has relatively high chance of subtle bugs which are
extremely difficult to trigger and it's way too hairy to be open coded
in blk-mq. percpu_ref can serve the same purpose after the recent
changes. This patch replaces the open-coded per-cpu usage counting
and draining mechanism with percpu_ref.
blk_mq_queue_enter() performs tryget_live on the ref and exit()
performs put. blk_mq_freeze_queue() kills the ref and waits until the
reference count reaches zero. blk_mq_unfreeze_queue() revives the ref
and wakes up the waiters.

blk_mq freezing is entangled with generic bypassing which bypasses
blkcg and io scheduler and lets IO requests fall through the block
layer to the drivers in FIFO order. This allows forward progress on
IOs with the advanced features disabled so that those features can be
configured or altered without worrying about stalling IO which may
lead to deadlock through memory allocation.
However, generic bypassing doesn't quite fit blk-mq. blk-mq currently
doesn't make use of blkcg or ioscheds and it maps bypssing to
freezing, which blocks request processing and drains all the in-flight
ones. This causes problems as bypassing assumes that request
processing is online. blk-mq works around this by conditionally
allowing request processing for the problem case - during queue
initialization.
Another weirdity is that except for during queue cleanup, bypassing
started on the generic side prevents blk-mq from processing new
requests but doesn't drain the in-flight ones. This shouldn't break
anything but again highlights that something isn't quite right here.
The root cause is conflating blk-mq freezing and generic bypassing
which are two different mechanisms. The only intersecting purpose
that they serve is during queue cleanup. Let's properly separate
blk-mq freezing from generic bypassing and simply use it where
necessary.
* request_queue->mq_freeze_depth is added and
blk_mq_[un]freeze_queue() now operate on this counter instead of
->bypass_depth. The replacement for QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS isn't added
but the counter is tested directly. This will be further updated by
later changes.
* blk_mq_drain_queue() is dropped and "__" prefix is dropped from
blk_mq_freeze_queue(). Queue cleanup path now calls
blk_mq_freeze_queue() directly.
* blk_queue_enter()'s fast path condition is simplified to simply
check @q->mq_freeze_depth. Previously, the condition was
!blk_queue_dying(q) &&
(!blk_queue_bypass(q) || !blk_queue_init_done(q))
mq_freeze_depth is incremented right after dying is set and
blk_queue_init_done() exception isn't necessary as blk-mq doesn't
start frozen, which only leaves the blk_queue_bypass() test which
can be replaced by @q->mq_freeze_depth test.
This change simplifies the code and reduces confusion in the area.

A block device driver may choose to provide a rw_page operation. These
will be called when the filesystem is attempting to do page sized I/O to
page cache pages (ie not for direct I/O). This does preclude I/Os that
are larger than page size, so this may only be a performance gain for
some devices.

This adds support for active queue tracking, meaning that the
blk-mq tagging maintains a count of active users of a tag set.
This allows us to maintain a notion of fairness between users,
so that we can distribute the tag depth evenly without starving
some users while allowing others to try unfair deep queues.
If sharing of a tag set is detected, each hardware queue will
track the depth of its own queue. And if this exceeds the total
depth divided by the number of active queues, the user is actively
throttled down.
The active queue count is done lazily to avoid bouncing that data
between submitter and completer. Each hardware queue gets marked
active when it allocates its first tag, and gets marked inactive
when 1) the last tag is cleared, and 2) the queue timeout grace
period has passed.

commit 6d113398dc
Author: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
Date: Mon Feb 24 16:39:54 2014 +0100
block: Stop abusing rq->csd.list in blk-softirq
and the problem was immediately apparent. The patch states that
it is safe to reuse queuelist at completion time, since it is
no longer used. However, that is not true if a device is using
block enabled tagging. If that is the case, then the queuelist
is reused to keep track of busy tags. If a device also ended
up using softirq completions, we'd reuse ->queuelist for the
IPI handling while block tagging was still using it. Boom.
Fix this by adding a new ipi_list list head, and share the
memory used with the request hash table. The hash table is
never used after the request is moved to the dispatch list,
which happens long before any potential completion of the
request. Add a new request bit for this, so we don't have
cases that check rq->hash while it could potentially have
been reused for the IPI completion.

Witch to using a preallocated flush_rq for blk-mq similar to what's done
with the old request path. This allows us to set up the request properly
with a tag from the actually allowed range and ->rq_disk as needed by
some drivers. To make life easier we also switch to dynamic allocation
of ->flush_rq for the old path.

Linux currently has two models for block devices:
- The classic request_fn based approach, where drivers use struct
request units for IO. The block layer provides various helper
functionalities to let drivers share code, things like tag
management, timeout handling, queueing, etc.
- The "stacked" approach, where a driver squeezes in between the
block layer and IO submitter. Since this bypasses the IO stack,
driver generally have to manage everything themselves.
With drivers being written for new high IOPS devices, the classic
request_fn based driver doesn't work well enough. The design dates
back to when both SMP and high IOPS was rare. It has problems with
scaling to bigger machines, and runs into scaling issues even on
smaller machines when you have IOPS in the hundreds of thousands
per device.
The stacked approach is then most often selected as the model
for the driver. But this means that everybody has to re-invent
everything, and along with that we get all the problems again
that the shared approach solved.
This commit introduces blk-mq, block multi queue support. The
design is centered around per-cpu queues for queueing IO, which
then funnel down into x number of hardware submission queues.
We might have a 1:1 mapping between the two, or it might be
an N:M mapping. That all depends on what the hardware supports.
blk-mq provides various helper functions, which include:
- Scalable support for request tagging. Most devices need to
be able to uniquely identify a request both in the driver and
to the hardware. The tagging uses per-cpu caches for freed
tags, to enable cache hot reuse.
- Timeout handling without tracking request on a per-device
basis. Basically the driver should be able to get a notification,
if a request happens to fail.
- Optional support for non 1:1 mappings between issue and
submission queues. blk-mq can redirect IO completions to the
desired location.
- Support for per-request payloads. Drivers almost always need
to associate a request structure with some driver private
command structure. Drivers can tell blk-mq this at init time,
and then any request handed to the driver will have the
required size of memory associated with it.
- Support for merging of IO, and plugging. The stacked model
gets neither of these. Even for high IOPS devices, merging
sequential IO reduces per-command overhead and thus
increases bandwidth.
For now, this is provided as a potential 3rd queueing model, with
the hope being that, as it matures, it can replace both the classic
and stacked model. That would get us back to having just 1 real
model for block devices, leaving the stacked approach to dm/md
devices (as it was originally intended).

This reference count has been around since before git history, but the only
place where it's used is in blk_execute_rq, and ther it is entirely useless
as it is incremented before submitting the request and decremented in the
end_io handler before waking up the submitter thread.

In commit 975927b942c932,it add blk_rq_pos to sort rq when flushing.
Although this commit was used for the situation which blk_plug handled
multi devices on the same time like md device.
I think there must be some situations like this but only single

So remove the should_sort judgement.
Because the parameter should_sort is only for this purpose,it can delete
should_sort from blk_plug.

Commit 8dd2cb7e88 ("block: discard granularity might not be power of
2") changed a couple of 'binary and' operations into modulus operations.
Which turned the harmless case of a zero discard_granularity into a
possible divide-by-zero.
The code also had a much more subtle bug: it was doing the modulus of a
value in bytes using 'sector_t'. That was always conceptually wrong,
but didn't actually matter back when the code assumed a power-of-two
granularity: we only looked at the low bits anyway.
But with potentially arbitrary sector numbers, using a 'sector_t' to
express bytes is very very wrong: depending on configuration it limits
the starting offset of the device to just 32 bits, and any overflow
would result in a wrong value if the modulus wasn't a power-of-two.
So re-write the code to not only protect against the divide-by-zero, but
to do the starting sector arithmetic in sectors, and using the proper
types.
[ For any mathematicians out there: it also looks monumentally stupid to
do the 'modulo granularity' operation *twice*, never mind having a "+
granularity" in the second modulus op.
But that's the easiest way to avoid negative values or overflow, and
it is how the original code was done. ]

Some request_fn implementations, e.g. scsi_request_fn(), unlock
the queue lock internally. This may result in multiple threads
executing request_fn for the same queue simultaneously. Keep
track of the number of active request_fn calls and make sure that
blk_cleanup_queue() waits until all active request_fn invocations
have finished. A block driver may start cleaning up resources
needed by its request_fn as soon as blk_cleanup_queue() finished,
so blk_cleanup_queue() must wait for all outstanding request_fn

A block driver may start cleaning up resources needed by its
request_fn as soon as blk_cleanup_queue() finished, so request_fn
must not be invoked after draining finished. This is important
when blk_run_queue() is invoked without any requests in progress.
As an example, if blk_drain_queue() and scsi_run_queue() run in
parallel, blk_drain_queue() may have finished all requests after
scsi_run_queue() has taken a SCSI device off the starved list but
before that last function has had a chance to run the queue.

When a disk has large discard_granularity and small max_discard_sectors,
discards are not split with optimal alignment. In the limit case of
discard_granularity == max_discard_sectors, no request could be aligned
correctly, so in fact you might end up with no discarded logical blocks
at all.
Another example that helps showing the condition in the patch is with
discard_granularity == 64, max_discard_sectors == 128. A request that is
submitted for 256 sectors 2..257 will be split in two: 2..129, 130..257.
However, only 2 aligned blocks out of 3 are included in the request;
128..191 may be left intact and not discarded. With this patch, the
first request will be truncated to ensure good alignment of what's left,
and the split will be 2..127, 128..255, 256..257. The patch will also
take into account the discard_alignment.
At most one extra request will be introduced, because the first request
will be reduced by at most granularity-1 sectors, and granularity
must be less than max_discard_sectors. Subsequent requests will run
on round_down(max_discard_sectors, granularity) sectors, as in the
current code.

Currently, request_queue has one request_list to allocate requests
from regardless of blkcg of the IO being issued. When the unified
request pool is used up, cfq proportional IO limits become meaningless
- whoever grabs the next request being freed wins the race regardless
of the configured weights.
This can be easily demonstrated by creating a blkio cgroup w/ very low
weight, put a program which can issue a lot of random direct IOs there
and running a sequential IO from a different cgroup. As soon as the
request pool is used up, the sequential IO bandwidth crashes.
This patch implements per-blkg request_list. Each blkg has its own
request_list and any IO allocates its request from the matching blkg
making blkcgs completely isolated in terms of request allocation.
* Root blkcg uses the request_list embedded in each request_queue,
which was renamed to @q->root_rl from @q->rq. While making blkcg rl
handling a bit harier, this enables avoiding most overhead for root
blkcg.
* Queue fullness is properly per request_list but bdi isn't blkcg
aware yet, so congestion state currently just follows the root
blkcg. As writeback isn't aware of blkcg yet, this works okay for
async congestion but readahead may get the wrong signals. It's
better than blkcg completely collapsing with shared request_list but
needs to be improved with future changes.
* After this change, each block cgroup gets a full request pool making
resource consumption of each cgroup higher. This makes allowing
non-root users to create cgroups less desirable; however, note that
allowing non-root users to directly manage cgroups is already
severely broken regardless of this patch - each block cgroup
consumes kernel memory and skews IO weight (IO weights are not
hierarchical).
v2: queue-sysfs.txt updated and patch description udpated as suggested
by Vivek.
v3: blk_get_rl() wasn't checking error return from
blkg_lookup_create() and may cause oops on lookup failure. Fix it
by falling back to root_rl on blkg lookup failures. This problem
was spotted by Rakesh Iyer <rni@google.com>.

All blkcg policies were assumed to be enabled on all request_queues.
Due to various implementation obstacles, during the recent blkcg core
updates, this was temporarily implemented as shooting down all !root
blkgs on elevator switch and policy [de]registration combined with
half-broken in-place root blkg updates. In addition to being buggy
and racy, this meant losing all blkcg configurations across those
events.
Now that blkcg is cleaned up enough, this patch replaces the temporary
implementation with proper per-queue policy activation. Each blkcg
policy should call the new blkcg_[de]activate_policy() to enable and
disable the policy on a specific queue. blkcg_activate_policy()
allocates and installs policy data for the policy for all existing
blkgs. blkcg_deactivate_policy() does the reverse. If a policy is
not enabled for a given queue, blkg printing / config functions skip
the respective blkg for the queue.
blkcg_activate_policy() also takes care of root blkg creation, and
cfq_init_queue() and blk_throtl_init() are updated accordingly.
This replaces blkcg_bypass_{start|end}() and update_root_blkg_pd()
unnecessary. Dropped.

With the previous patch to move blkg list heads and counters to
request_queue and blkg, logic to manage them in both policies are
almost identical and can be moved to blkcg core.
This patch moves blkg link logic into blkg_lookup_create(), implements
common blkg unlink code in blkg_destroy(), and updates
blkg_destory_all() so that it's policy specific and can skip root
group. The updated blkg_destroy_all() is now used to both clear queue
for bypassing and elv switching, and release all blkgs on q exit.
This patch introduces a race window where policy [de]registration may
race against queue blkg clearing. This can only be a problem on cfq
unload and shouldn't be a real problem in practice (and we have many
other places where this race already exists). Future patches will

Linux allows executing the SG_IO ioctl on a partition or LVM volume, and
will pass the command to the underlying block device. This is
well-known, but it is also a large security problem when (via Unix
permissions, ACLs, SELinux or a combination thereof) a program or user
needs to be granted access only to part of the disk.
This patch lets partitions forward a small set of harmless ioctls;
others are logged with printk so that we can see which ioctls are
actually sent. In my tests only CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY actually occurred.
Of course it was being sent to a (partition on a) hard disk, so it would
have failed with ENOTTY and the patch isn't changing anything in
practice. Still, I'm treating it specially to avoid spamming the logs.
In principle, this restriction should include programs running with
CAP_SYS_RAWIO. If for example I let a program access /dev/sda2 and
/dev/sdb, it still should not be able to read/write outside the
boundaries of /dev/sda2 independent of the capabilities. However, for
now programs with CAP_SYS_RAWIO will still be allowed to send the
ioctls. Their actions will still be logged.
This patch does not affect the non-libata IDE driver. That driver
however already tests for bd != bd->bd_contains before issuing some
ioctl; it could be restricted further to forbid these ioctls even for
programs running with CAP_SYS_ADMIN/CAP_SYS_RAWIO.

Stacking driver queue limits are typically bounded exclusively by the
capabilities of the low level devices, not by the stacking driver
itself.
This patch introduces blk_set_stacking_limits() which has more liberal
metrics than the default queue limits function. This allows us to
inherit topology parameters from bottom devices without manually
tweaking the default limits in each driver prior to calling the stacking
function.
Since there is now a clear distinction between stacking and low-level
devices, blk_set_default_limits() has been modified to carry the more
conservative values that we used to manually set in
blk_queue_make_request().

This patch prepares for it.
* Move cfqd->icq_list to request_queue->icq_list
* Make request explicitly point to icq instead of through elevator
private data. ->elevator_private[3] is replaced with sub struct elv
which contains icq pointer and priv[2]. cfq is updated accordingly.

cic is association between io_context and request_queue. A cic is
linked from both ioc and q and should be destroyed when either one
goes away. As ioc and q both have their own locks, locking becomes a
bit complex - both orders work for removal from one but not from the
other.
Currently, cfq tries to circumvent this locking order issue with RCU.
ioc->lock nests inside queue_lock but the radix tree and cic's are
also protected by RCU allowing either side to walk their lists without
grabbing lock.
This rather unconventional use of RCU quickly devolves into extremely
fragile convolution. e.g. The following is from cfqd going away too
soon after ioc and q exits raced.

The only real hot path here is cic lookup during request
initialization and avoiding extra locking requires very confined use
of RCU. This patch makes cic removal from both ioc and request_queue
perform double-locking and unlink immediately.
* From q side, the change is almost trivial as ioc->lock nests inside
queue_lock. It just needs to grab each ioc->lock as it walks
cic_list and unlink it.
* From ioc side, it's a bit more difficult because of inversed lock
order. ioc needs its lock to walk its cic_list but can't grab the
matching queue_lock and needs to perform unlock-relock dancing.
Unlinking is now wholly done from put_io_context() and fast path is
optimized by using the queue_lock the caller already holds, which is
by far the most common case. If the ioc accessed multiple devices,
it tries with trylock. In unlikely cases of fast path failure, it
falls back to full double-locking dance from workqueue.
Double-locking isn't the prettiest thing in the world but it's *far*
simpler and more understandable than RCU trick without adding any
meaningful overhead.
This still leaves a lot of now unnecessary RCU logics. Future patches
will trim them.

This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was
masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time.
There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the
struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead
and simply make it a few more.
Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by
these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can

Commit ae1b153962, block: reimplement
FLUSH/FUA to support merge, introduced a performance regression when
running any sort of fsyncing workload using dm-multipath and certain
storage (in our case, an HP EVA). The test I ran was fs_mark, and it
dropped from ~800 files/sec on ext4 to ~100 files/sec. It turns out
that dm-multipath always advertised flush+fua support, and passed
commands on down the stack, where those flags used to get stripped off.
The above commit changed that behavior:
static inline struct request *__elv_next_request(struct request_queue *q)
{
struct request *rq;
while (1) {
- while (!list_empty(&q->queue_head)) {
+ if (!list_empty(&q->queue_head)) {
rq = list_entry_rq(q->queue_head.next);
- if (!(rq->cmd_flags & (REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA)) ||
- (rq->cmd_flags & REQ_FLUSH_SEQ))
- return rq;
- rq = blk_do_flush(q, rq);
- if (rq)
- return rq;
+ return rq;
}
Note that previously, a command would come in here, have
REQ_FLUSH|REQ_FUA set, and then get handed off to blk_do_flush:
struct request *blk_do_flush(struct request_queue *q, struct request *rq)
{
unsigned int fflags = q->flush_flags; /* may change, cache it */
bool has_flush = fflags & REQ_FLUSH, has_fua = fflags & REQ_FUA;
bool do_preflush = has_flush && (rq->cmd_flags & REQ_FLUSH);
bool do_postflush = has_flush && !has_fua && (rq->cmd_flags &
REQ_FUA);
unsigned skip = 0;
...
if (blk_rq_sectors(rq) && !do_preflush && !do_postflush) {
rq->cmd_flags &= ~REQ_FLUSH;
if (!has_fua)
rq->cmd_flags &= ~REQ_FUA;
return rq;
}
So, the flush machinery was bypassed in such cases (q->flush_flags == 0
&& rq->cmd_flags & (REQ_FLUSH|REQ_FUA)).
Now, however, we don't get into the flush machinery at all. Instead,
__elv_next_request just hands a request with flush and fua bits set to
the scsi_request_fn, even if the underlying request_queue does not
support flush or fua.
The agreed upon approach is to fix the flush machinery to allow
stacking. While this isn't used in practice (since there is only one
request-based dm target, and that target will now reflect the flush
flags of the underlying device), it does future-proof the solution, and
make it function as designed.
In order to make this work, I had to add a field to the struct request,
inside the flush structure (to store the original req->end_io). Shaohua
had suggested overloading the union with rb_node and completion_data,
but the completion data is used by device mapper and can also be used by
other drivers. So, I didn't see a way around the additional field.
I tested this patch on an HP EVA with both ext4 and xfs, and it recovers
the lost performance. Comments and other testers, as always, are
appreciated.

Jeff

Some systems benefit from completions always being steered to the strict
requester cpu rather than the looser "per-socket" steering that
blk_cpu_to_group() attempts by default. This is because the first
CPU in the group mask ends up being completely overloaded with work,
while the others (including the original submitter) has power left
to spare.
Allow the strict mode to be set by writing '2' to the sysfs control
file. This is identical to the scheme used for the nomerges file,
where '2' is a more aggressive setting than just being turned on.

When I test fio script with big I/O depth, I found the total throughput drops
compared to some relative small I/O depth. The reason is the thread accumulates
big requests in its plug list and causes some delays (surely this depends
on CPU speed).
I thought we'd better have a threshold for requests. When a threshold reaches,
this means there is no request merge and queue lock contention isn't severe
when pushing per-task requests to queue, so the main advantages of blk plug
don't exist. We can force a plug list flush in this case.
With this, my test throughput actually increases and almost equals to small
I/O depth. Another side effect is irq off time decreases in blk_flush_plug_list()
for big I/O depth.
The BLK_MAX_REQUEST_COUNT is choosen arbitarily, but 16 is efficiently to
reduce lock contention to me. But I'm open here, 32 is ok in my test too.

Fix this by enabling the feature by default for stacking drivers and

driver.
Also ensure that the maximum discard value does not overflow when

In some drives, flush requests are non-queueable. When flush request is
running, normal read/write requests can't run. If block layer dispatches
such request, driver can't handle it and requeue it. Tejun suggested we
can hold the queue when flush is running. This can avoid unnecessary
requeue. Also this can improve performance. For example, we have
request flush1, write1, flush 2. flush1 is dispatched, then queue is
hold, write1 isn't inserted to queue. After flush1 is finished, flush2
will be dispatched. Since disk cache is already clean, flush2 will be
finished very soon, so looks like flush2 is folded to flush1.
In my test, the queue holding completely solves a regression introduced by
commit 53d63e6b0d:
block: make the flush insertion use the tail of the dispatch list
It's not a preempt type request, in fact we have to insert it
behind requests that do specify INSERT_FRONT.
which causes about 20% regression running a sysbench fileio
workload.

The current block integrity (DIF/DIX) support in DM is verifying that
all devices' integrity profiles match during DM device resume (which
is past the point of no return). To some degree that is unavoidable
(stacked DM devices force this late checking). But for most DM
devices (which aren't stacking on other DM devices) the ideal time to
verify all integrity profiles match is during table load.
Introduce the notion of an "initialized" integrity profile: a profile
that was blk_integrity_register()'d with a non-NULL 'blk_integrity'
template. Add blk_integrity_is_initialized() to allow checking if a
profile was initialized.
Update DM integrity support to:
- check all devices with _initialized_ integrity profiles match
during table load; uninitialized profiles (e.g. for underlying DM
device(s) of a stacked DM device) are ignored.
- disallow a table load that would result in an integrity profile that
conflicts with a DM device's existing (in-use) integrity profile
- avoid clearing an existing integrity profile
- validate all integrity profiles match during resume; but if they
don't all we can do is report the mismatch (during resume we're past
the point of no return)

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops->sync_page().

This patch adds support for creating a queuing context outside
of the queue itself. This enables us to batch up pieces of IO
before grabbing the block device queue lock and submitting them to
the IO scheduler.
The context is created on the stack of the process and assigned in
the task structure, so that we can auto-unplug it if we hit a schedule
event.
The current queue plugging happens implicitly if IO is submitted to
an empty device, yet callers have to remember to unplug that IO when
they are going to wait for it. This is an ugly API and has caused bugs
in the past. Additionally, it requires hacks in the vm (->sync_page()
callback) to handle that logic. By switching to an explicit plugging
scheme we make the API a lot nicer and can get rid of the ->sync_page()
hack in the vm.
