The warning is a false positive, caused by the fact that all
wait_for_completion()s in submit_bio_wait() are waiting with the same
lock class.
However, some bios have nothing to do with others, for example in the case
of loop devices, there's no direct connection between the bios of an upper
device and the bios of a lower device(=loop device).
The safest way to assign different lock classes to different devices is
to do it for each gendisk. In other words, this patch assigns a
lockdep_map per gendisk and uses it when initializing completion in
submit_bio_wait().

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

patch moves the free to bio endio, which should be called anyway. The
bio_uninit call in bio_free is kept, in case the bio never gets called
bio endio.
This assumes ->bi_end_io() doesn't access cgroup info, which seems true
in my audit.

- Two pull requests for NVMe updates. Nothing major on the feature
side, but lots of cleanups and bug fixes. From the usual crew.
- A series from Neil Brown, greatly improving the bio rescue set

When testcases with T10 enabled call into __blkdev_direct_IO_simple,
code doesn't free memory allocated by bio_integrity_alloc. The patch
fixes the issue. HTX has been run with +60 hours without failure."
Since __blkdev_direct_IO_simple() allocates the bio on the stack, it
doesn't go through the regular bio free. This means that any ancillary
data allocated with the bio through the stack is not freed. Hence, we
can leak the integrity data associated with the bio, if the device is
using DIF/DIX.
Fix this by providing a bio_uninit() and export it, so that we can use
it to free this data. Note that this is a minimal fix for this issue.
Any current user of bio's that are allocated outside of
bio_alloc_bioset() suffers from this issue, most notably some drivers.
We will fix those in a more comprehensive patch for 4.13. This also
means that the commit marked as being fixed by this isn't the real
culprit, it's just the most obvious one out there.

This patch converts bioset_create() to not create a workqueue by
default, so alloctions will never trigger punt_bios_to_rescuer(). It
also introduces a new flag BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER which tells
bioset_create() to preserve the old behavior.
All callers of bioset_create() that are inside block device drivers,
are given the BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag.
biosets used by filesystems or other top-level users do not
need rescuing as the bio can never be queued behind other
bios. This includes fs_bio_set, blkdev_dio_pool,
btrfs_bioset, xfs_ioend_bioset, and one allocated by
target_core_iblock.c.
biosets used by md/raid do not need rescuing as
their usage was recently audited and revised to never
risk deadlock.
It is hoped that most, if not all, of the remaining biosets
can end up being the non-rescued version.

"flags" arguments are often seen as good API design as they allow
easy extensibility.
bioset_create_nobvec() is implemented internally as a variation in
flags passed to __bioset_create().
To support future extension, make the internal structure part of the
API.
i.e. add a 'flags' argument to bioset_create() and discard
bioset_create_nobvec().
Note that the bio_split allocations in drivers/md/raid* do not need
the bvec mempool - they should have used bioset_create_nobvec().

Currently only dm and md/raid5 bios trigger
trace_block_bio_complete(). Now that we have bio_chain() and
bio_inc_remaining(), it is not possible, in general, for a driver to
know when the bio is really complete. Only bio_endio() knows that.
So move the trace_block_bio_complete() call to bio_endio().
Now trace_block_bio_complete() pairs with trace_block_bio_queue().
Any bio for which a 'queue' event is traced, will subsequently
generate a 'complete' event.
There are a few cases where completion tracing is not wanted.
1/ If blk_update_request() has already generated a completion
trace event at the 'request' level, there is no point generating
one at the bio level too. In this case the bi_sector and bi_size
will have changed, so the bio level event would be wrong
2/ If the bio hasn't actually been queued yet, but is being aborted
early, then a trace event could be confusing. Some filesystems
call bio_endio() but do not want tracing.
3/ The bio_integrity code interposes itself by replacing bi_end_io,
then restoring it and calling bio_endio() again. This would produce
two identical trace events if left like that.
To handle these, we introduce a flag BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION and only
produce the trace event when this is set.
We address point 1 above by clearing the flag in blk_update_request().
We address point 2 above by only setting the flag when
generic_make_request() is called.
We address point 3 above by clearing the flag after generating a
completion event.
When bio_split() is used on a bio, particularly in blk_queue_split(),
there is an extra complication. A new bio is split off the front, and
may be handle directly without going through generic_make_request().
The old bio, which has been advanced, is passed to
generic_make_request(), so it will trigger a trace event a second
time.
Probably the best result when a split happens is to see a single
'queue' event for the whole bio, then multiple 'complete' events - one
for each component. To achieve this was can:
- copy the BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION flag to the new bio in bio_split()
- avoid generating a 'queue' event if BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION is already set.
This way, the split-off bio won't create a queue event, the original
won't either even if it re-submitted to generic_make_request(),
but both will produce completion events, each for their own range.
So if generic_make_request() is called (which generates a QUEUED
event), then bi_endio() will create a single COMPLETE event for each
range that the bio is split into, unless the driver has explicitly
requested it not to.

A cgroup gets assigned a low limit, but the cgroup could never dispatch
enough IO to cross the low limit. In such case, the queue state machine
will remain in LIMIT_LOW state and all other cgroups will be throttled
according to low limit. This is unfair for other cgroups. We should
treat the cgroup idle and upgrade the state machine to lower state.
We also have a downgrade logic. If the state machine upgrades because of
cgroup idle (real idle), the state machine will downgrade soon as the
cgroup is below its low limit. This isn't what we want. A more
complicated case is cgroup isn't idle when queue is in LIMIT_LOW. But
when queue gets upgraded to lower state, other cgroups could dispatch
more IO and this cgroup can't dispatch enough IO, so the cgroup is below
its low limit and looks like idle (fake idle). In this case, the queue
should downgrade soon. The key to determine if we should do downgrade is
to detect if cgroup is truely idle.
Unfortunately it's very hard to determine if a cgroup is real idle. This
patch uses the 'think time check' idea from CFQ for the purpose. Please
note, the idea doesn't work for all workloads. For example, a workload
with io depth 8 has disk utilization 100%, hence think time is 0, eg,
not idle. But the workload can run higher bandwidth with io depth 16.
Compared to io depth 16, the io depth 8 workload is idle. We use the
idea to roughly determine if a cgroup is idle.
We treat a cgroup idle if its think time is above a threshold (by
default 1ms for SSD and 100ms for HD). The idea is think time above the
threshold will start to harm performance. HD is much slower so a longer
think time is ok.
The patch (and the latter patches) uses 'unsigned long' to track time.
We convert 'ns' to 'us' with 'ns >> 10'. This is fast but loses
precision, should not a big deal.

Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it
all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously
cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op
fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough
operations.
Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

Instead of allocating a single unused biovec for discard requests, send
them down without any payload. Instead we allow the driver to add a
"special" payload using a biovec embedded into struct request (unioned
over other fields never used while in the driver), and overloading
the number of segments for this case.
This has a couple of advantages:
- we don't have to allocate the bio_vec
- the amount of special casing for discard requests in the block
layer is significantly reduced
- using this same scheme for other request types is trivial,
which will be important for implementing the new WRITE_ZEROES
op on devices where it actually requires a payload (e.g. SCSI)
- we can get rid of playing games with the request length, as
we'll never touch it and completions will work just fine
- it will allow us to support ranged discard operations in the
future by merging non-contiguous discard bios into a single
request
- last but not least it removes a lot of code
This patch is the common base for my WIP series for ranges discards and to
remove discard_zeroes_data in favor of always using REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES,
so it would be good to get it in quickly.

This adds a new block layer operation to zero out a range of
LBAs. This allows to implement zeroing for devices that don't use
either discard with a predictable zero pattern or WRITE SAME of zeroes.
The prominent example of that is NVMe with the Write Zeroes command,
but in the future, this should also help with improving the way
zeroing discards work. For this operation, suitable entry is exported in
sysfs which indicate the number of maximum bytes allowed in one
write zeroes operation by the device.

Some drivers often use external bvec table, so introduce
this helper for this case. It is always safe to access the
bio->bi_io_vec in this way for this case.
After converting to this usage, it will becomes a bit easier
to evaluate the remaining direct access to bio->bi_io_vec,
so it can help to prepare for the following multipage bvec
support.

Since commit 63a4cc2486, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.
No intended functional changes in this commit.

When a bio is cloned, the newly created bio must be associated with
the same blkcg as the original bio (if BLK_CGROUP is enabled). If
this operation is not performed, then the new bio is not associated
with any group, and the group of the current task is returned when
the group of the bio is requested.
Depending on the cloning frequency, this may cause a large
percentage of the bios belonging to a given group to be treated
as if belonging to other groups (in most cases as if belonging to
the root group). The expected group isolation may thereby be broken.
This commit adds the missing association in bio-cloning functions.

Commit 326e1dbb57 ("block: remove management of bi_remaining when
restoring original bi_end_io") made bio_inc_remaining() private to bio.c
because the only use-case that made sense was confined to the
bio_chain() interface.
Since that time DM thinp went on to use bio_chain() in its relatively
complex implementation of async discard support. That implementation,
even when converted over to use the new async __blkdev_issue_discard()
interface, depends on deferred completion of the original discard bio --
which is most appropriately implemented using bio_inc_remaining().
DM thinp foolishly duplicated bio_inc_remaining(), local to dm-thin.c as
__bio_inc_remaining(), so re-exporting bio_inc_remaining() allows us to
put an end to that foolishness.
All said, bio_inc_remaining() should really only be used in conjunction
with bio_chain(). It isn't intended for generic bio reference counting.
