On each IO completion, iocost decides whether the IO met or missed its latency
target. Currently, the targets are fixed numbers per IO type. While this can be
good enough for loose latency targets way higher than typical completion
latencies, the effect of IO size makes it difficult to tighten the latency
target - a target adequate for 4k IOs might be too tight for 512k IOs and
vice-versa.
iocost already has all the necessary information to account for different IO
sizes when testing whether the latency target is met as iocost can calculate the
size vtime cost of a given IO. This patch updates the completion path to
calculate the size vtime cost of the IO, deduct the nsec equivalent from the
observed latency and use the adjusted value to decide whether the target is met.
This makes latency targets independent from IO size and enables determining
adequate latency targets with fixed size fio runs.

The use_delay mechanism was introduced by blk-iolatency to hold memory
allocators accountable for the reclaim and other shared IOs they cause. The
duration of the delay is dynamically balanced between iolatency increasing the
value on each target miss and it auto-decaying as time passes and threads get
delayed on it.
While this works well for iolatency, iocost's control model isn't compatible
with it. There is no repeated "violation" events which can be balanced against
auto-decaying. iocost instead knows how much a given cgroup is over budget and
wants to prevent that cgroup from issuing IOs while over budget. Until now,
iocost has been adding the cost of force-issued IOs. However, this doesn't
reflect the amount which is already over budget and is simply not enough to
counter the auto-decaying allowing anon-memory leaking low priority cgroup to
go over its alloted share of IOs.
As auto-decaying doesn't make much sense for iocost, this patch introduces a
different mode of operation for use_delay - when blkcg_set_delay() are used
insted of blkcg_add/use_delay(), the delay duration is not auto-decayed until it
is explicitly cleared with blkcg_clear_delay(). iocost is updated to keep the
delay duration synchronized to the budget overage amount.
With this change, iocost can effectively police cgroups which generate
significant amount of force-issued IOs.

Flushes bypass the I/O scheduler and get added to hctx->dispatch
in blk_mq_sched_bypass_insert. This can happen while a kworker is running
hctx->run_work work item and is past the point in
blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests where hctx->dispatch is checked.
The blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched call is not guaranteed to end in bounded time,
because the I/O scheduler can feed an arbitrary number of commands.
Since we have only one hctx->run_work, the commands waiting in
hctx->dispatch will wait an arbitrary length of time for run_work to be
rerun.
A similar phenomenon exists with dispatches from the software queue.
The solution is to poll hctx->dispatch in blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched and
blk_mq_do_dispatch_ctx and return from the run_work handler and let it
rerun.

If ever a thread running blk-mq code tries to get budget and fails it
immediately stops doing work and assumes that whenever budget is freed
up that queues will be kicked and whatever work the thread was trying
to do will be tried again.
One path where budget is freed and queues are kicked in the normal
case can be seen in scsi_finish_command(). Specifically:
- scsi_finish_command()
- scsi_device_unbusy()
- # Decrement "device_busy", AKA release budget
- scsi_io_completion()
- scsi_end_request()
- blk_mq_run_hw_queues()
The above is all well and good. The problem comes up when a thread
claims the budget but then releases it without actually dispatching
any work. Since we didn't schedule any work we'll never run the path
of finishing work / kicking the queues.
This isn't often actually a problem which is why this issue has
existed for a while and nobody noticed. Specifically we only get into
this situation when we unexpectedly found that we weren't going to do
any work. Code that later receives new work kicks the queues. All
good, right?
The problem shows up, however, if timing is just wrong and we hit a
race. To see this race let's think about the case where we only have
a budget of 1 (only one thread can hold budget). Now imagine that a
thread got budget and then decided not to dispatch work. It's about
to call put_budget() but then the thread gets context switched out for
a long, long time. While in this state, any and all kicks of the
queue (like the when we received new work) will be no-ops because
nobody can get budget. Finally the thread holding budget gets to run
again and returns. All the normal kicks will have been no-ops and we
have an I/O stall.
As you can see from the above, you need just the right timing to see
the race. To start with, the only case it happens if we thought we
had work, actually managed to get the budget, but then actually didn't
have work. That's pretty rare to start with. Even then, there's
usually a very small amount of time between realizing that there's no
work and putting the budget. During this small amount of time new
work has to come in and the queue kick has to make it all the way to
trying to get the budget and fail. It's pretty unlikely.
One case where this could have failed is illustrated by an example of
threads running blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched():
* Threads A and B both run has_work() at the same time with the same
"hctx". Imagine has_work() is exact. There's no lock, so it's OK
if Thread A and B both get back true.
* Thread B gets interrupted for a long time right after it decides
that there is work. Maybe its CPU gets an interrupt and the
interrupt handler is slow.
* Thread A runs, get budget, dispatches work.
* Thread A's work finishes and budget is released.
* Thread B finally runs again and gets budget.
* Since Thread A already took care of the work and no new work has
come in, Thread B will get NULL from dispatch_request(). I believe
this is specifically why dispatch_request() is allowed to return
NULL in the first place if has_work() must be exact.
* Thread B will now be holding the budget and is about to call
put_budget(), but hasn't called it yet.
* Thread B gets interrupted for a long time (again). Dang interrupts.
* Now Thread C (maybe with a different "hctx" but the same queue)
comes along and runs blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched().
* Thread C won't do anything because it can't get budget.
* Finally Thread B will run again and put the budget without kicking
any queues.
Even though the example above is with blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched() I
believe the race is possible any time someone is holding budget but
doesn't do work.
Unfortunately, the unlikely has become more likely if you happen to be
using the BFQ I/O scheduler. BFQ, by design, sometimes returns "true"
for has_work() but then NULL for dispatch_request() and stays in this
state for a while (currently up to 9 ms). Suddenly you only need one
race to hit, not two races in a row. With my current setup this is
easy to reproduce in reboot tests and traces have actually shown that
we hit a race similar to the one described above.
Note that we only need to fix blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched() and
blk_mq_do_dispatch_ctx() and not the other places that put budget. In
other cases we know that we have work to do on at least one "hctx" and
code already exists to kick that "hctx"'s queue. When that work
finally finishes all the queues will be kicked using the normal flow.
One last note is that (at least in the SCSI case) budget is shared by
all "hctx"s that have the same queue. Thus we need to make sure to
kick the whole queue, not just re-run dispatching on a single "hctx".

In blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), if blk_mq_sched_needs_restart() returns
true and the driver returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE then we'll kick the
queue. However, there's another case where we might need to kick it.
If we were unable to get budget we can be in much the same state as
when the driver returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE, so we should treat it the
same.
It should be noted that even if we add a whole bunch of extra kicking
to the queue in other patches this patch is still important.
Specifically any kicking that happened before we re-spliced leftover
requests into 'hctx->dispatch' wouldn't have found any work, so we

Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The EFI changes in this cycle are much larger than usual, for two
(positive) reasons:
- The GRUB project is showing signs of life again, resulting in the
introduction of the generic Linux/UEFI boot protocol, instead of
x86 specific hacks which are increasingly difficult to maintain.
There's hope that all future extensions will now go through that
boot protocol.
- Preparatory work for RISC-V EFI support.
The main changes are:
- Boot time GDT handling changes
- Simplify handling of EFI properties table on arm64
- Generic EFI stub cleanups, to improve command line handling, file
I/O, memory allocation, etc.
- Introduce a generic initrd loading method based on calling back
into the firmware, instead of relying on the x86 EFI handover
protocol or device tree.
- Introduce a mixed mode boot method that does not rely on the x86
EFI handover protocol either, and could potentially be adopted by
other architectures (if another one ever surfaces where one
execution mode is a superset of another)
- Clean up the contents of 'struct efi', and move out everything that
doesn't need to be stored there.
- Incorporate support for UEFI spec v2.8A changes that permit
firmware implementations to return EFI_UNSUPPORTED from UEFI
runtime services at OS runtime, and expose a mask of which ones are
supported or unsupported via a configuration table.
- Partial fix for the lack of by-VA cache maintenance in the
decompressor on 32-bit ARM.
- Changes to load device firmware from EFI boot service memory
regions

Add a helper to stringify the zone conditions. We use this helper in the
next patch to track zone conditions in tracepoints.

The bio_map_* helpers are just the low-level helpers for the
blk_rq_map_* APIs. Move them together for better logical grouping,
as no there isn't much overlap with other code in bio.c.

This reverts commit f10d9f617a.
We can't have queues without a make_request_fn any more (and the
loop device uses blk-mq these days anyway..).

Current make_request based drivers use either blk_alloc_queue_node or
blk_alloc_queue to allocate a queue, and then set up the make_request_fn
function pointer and a few parameters using the blk_queue_make_request
helper. Simplify this by passing the make_request pointer to
blk_alloc_queue, and while at it merge the _node variant into the main
helper by always passing a node_id, and remove the superfluous gfp_mask
parameter. A lower-level __blk_alloc_queue is kept for the blk-mq case.

This allows a driver to pass a queuedata member before ->init_hctx is
called. null_blk currently open codes this logic, but I'd rather have
it in the core to ease future maintainance.

There really isn't any good reason to stash a method directly into
struct gendisk. Move it together with the other block device
