Queue can be started by other blk-mq APIs and can be used in
different cases, this limits uses of blk_mq_quiesce_queue()
if it is based on stopping queue, and make its usage very
difficult, especially users have to use the stop queue APIs
carefully for avoiding to break blk_mq_quiesce_queue().
We have applied the QUIESCED flag for draining and blocking
dispatch, so it isn't necessary to stop queue any more.
After stopping queue is removed, blk_mq_quiesce_queue() can
be used safely and easily, then users won't worry about queue
restarting during quiescing at all.

on APIs of stopping queue.
But blk_mq_quiesce_queue() still may not block/drain dispatch in the

QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED and evaluate it inside RCU read-side critical

Also blk_mq_quiesce_queue() is implemented via stopping queue, which

blk_bio_segment_split() makes sure bios have no more than

This was done because bio_clone_bioset() (when given a

No driver uses bio_clone_bioset() any more, they all

drbd does not modify the bi_io_vec of the cloned bio,
so there is no need to clone that part. So bio_clone_fast()
is the better choice.

We could use fs_bio_set, which bio_clone() uses, or
drbd_md_io_bio_set, which drbd uses for metadata, but it is
generally best to avoid sharing bio_sets unless you can
be certain that there are no interdependencies.
So create a new bio_set, drbd_io_bio_set, and use bio_clone_fast().

bio_clone() makes a copy of the bi_io_vec, but rbd never changes that,
so there is no need for a copy.
bio_clone_fast() can be used instead, which avoids making the copy.
This requires that we provide a bio_set. bio_clone() uses fs_bio_set,
but it isn't, in general, safe to use the same bio_set at different
levels of the stack, as that can lead to deadlocks. As filesystems
use fs_bio_set, block devices shouldn't.
As rbd never stacks, it is safe to have a single global bio_set for
all rbd devices to use. So allocate that when the module is
initialised, and use it with bio_clone_fast().

Since commit 23688bf4f8 ("block: ensure to split after potentially
bouncing a bio") blk_queue_bounce() is called *before*
blk_queue_split().
This means that:
1/ the comments blk_queue_split() about bounce buffers are
irrelevant, and
2/ a very large bio (more than BIO_MAX_PAGES) will no longer be
split before it arrives at blk_queue_bounce(), leading to the
possibility that bio_clone_bioset() will fail and a NULL
will be dereferenced.
Separately, blk_queue_bounce() shouldn't use fs_bio_set as the bio
being copied could be from the same set, and this could lead to a
deadlock.
So:
- allocate 2 private biosets for blk_queue_bounce, one for
splitting enormous bios and one for cloning bios.
- add code to split a bio that exceeds BIO_MAX_PAGES.
- Fix up the comments in blk_queue_split()

A rescuing bioset is only useful if there might be bios from
that same bioset on the bio_list_on_stack queue at a time
when bio_alloc_bioset() is called. This never applies to
q->bio_split.
Allocations from q->bio_split are only ever made from
blk_queue_split() which is only ever called early in each of
various make_request_fn()s. The original bio (call this A)
is then passed to generic_make_request() and is placed on
the bio_list_on_stack queue, and the bio that was allocated
from q->bio_split (B) is processed.
The processing of this may cause other bios to be passed to
generic_make_request() or may even cause the bio B itself to
be passed, possible after some prefix has been split off
(using some other bioset).
generic_make_request() now guarantees that all of these bios
(B and dependants) will be fully processed before the tail
of the original bio A gets handled. None of these early bios
can possible trigger an allocation from the original
q->bio_split as they are either too small to require
splitting or (more likely) are destined for a different queue.
The next time that the original q->bio_split might be used
by this thread is when A is processed again, as it might
still be too big to handle directly. By this time there
cannot be any other bios allocated from q->bio_split in the
generic_make_request() queue. So no rescuing will ever be
needed.

When a filesystem is mounted from a loop device, writes are
throttled by balance_dirty_pages() twice: once when writing
to the filesystem and once when the loop_handle_cmd() writes
to the backing file. This double-throttling can trigger
positive feedback loops that create significant delays. The
throttling at the lower level is seen by the upper level as
a slow device, so it throttles extra hard.
The PF_LESS_THROTTLE flag was created to handle exactly this
circumstance, though with an NFS filesystem mounted from a
local NFS server. It reduces the throttling on the lower
layer so that it can proceed largely unthrottled.
To demonstrate this, create a filesystem on a loop device
and write (e.g. with dd) several large files which combine
to consume significantly more than the limit set by
/proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio or dirty_bytes. Measure the total
time taken.
When I do this directly on a device (no loop device) the
total time for several runs (mkfs, mount, write 200 files,
umount) is fairly stable: 28-35 seconds.
When I do this over a loop device the times are much worse
and less stable. 52-460 seconds. Half below 100seconds,
half above.
When I apply this patch, the times become stable again,
though not as fast as the no-loop-back case: 53-72 seconds.
There may be room for further improvement as the total overhead still
seems too high, but this is a big improvement.
