Currently, struct request has four timestamp fields:
- A start time, set at get_request time, in jiffies, used for iostats
- An I/O start time, set at start_request time, in ktime nanoseconds,
used for blk-stats (i.e., wbt, kyber, hybrid polling)
- Another start time and another I/O start time, used for cfq and bfq
These can all be consolidated into one start time and one I/O start
time, both in ktime nanoseconds, shaving off up to 16 bytes from struct
request depending on the kernel config.

struct blk_issue_stat squashes three things into one u64:
- The time the driver started working on a request
- The original size of the request (for the io.low controller)
- Flags for writeback throttling
It turns out that on x86_64, we have a 4 byte hole in struct request
which we can fill with the non-timestamp fields from blk_issue_stat,
simplifying things quite a bit.

Commit 9c40cef2b7 ("sched: Move blk_schedule_flush_plug() out of
__schedule()") moved the blk_schedule_flush_plug() call out of the
interrupt/preempt disabled region in the scheduler. This allows to replace
local_irq_save/restore(flags) by local_irq_disable/enable() in
blk_flush_plug_list().
But it makes more sense to disable interrupts explicitly when the request
queue is locked end reenable them when the request to is unlocked. This
shortens the interrupt disabled section which is important when the plug
list contains requests for more than one queue. The comment which claims
that disabling interrupts around the loop is misleading as the called
functions can reenable interrupts unconditionally anyway and obfuscates the
scope badly:
local_irq_save(flags);
spin_lock(q->queue_lock);
...
queue_unplugged(q...);
scsi_request_fn();
spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock);
-------------------^^^ ????
spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock);
spin_unlock(q->queue_lock);
local_irq_restore(flags);
Aside of that the detached interrupt disabling is a constant pain for
PREEMPT_RT as it requires patching and special casing when RT is enabled
while with the spin_*_irq() variants this happens automatically.

rq->gstate and rq->aborted_gstate both are zero before rqs are
allocated. If we have a small timeout, when the timer fires,
there could be rqs that are never allocated, and also there could
be rq that has been allocated but not initialized and started. At
the moment, the rq->gstate and rq->aborted_gstate both are 0, thus
the blk_mq_terminate_expired will identify the rq is timed out and
invoke .timeout early.
For scsi, this will cause scsi_times_out to be invoked before the
scsi_cmnd is not initialized, scsi_cmnd->device is still NULL at
the moment, then we will get crash.

When blk_queue_enter() waits for a queue to unfreeze, or unset the
PREEMPT_ONLY flag, do not allow it to be interrupted by a signal.
The PREEMPT_ONLY flag was introduced later in commit 3a0a529971
("block, scsi: Make SCSI quiesce and resume work reliably"). Note the SCSI
device is resumed asynchronously, i.e. after un-freezing userspace tasks.
So that commit exposed the bug as a regression in v4.15. A mysterious
SIGBUS (or -EIO) sometimes happened during the time the device was being
resumed. Most frequently, there was no kernel log message, and we saw Xorg
or Xwayland killed by SIGBUS.[1]
[1] E.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1553979
Without this fix, I get an IO error in this test:
# dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null iflag=direct & \
while killall -SIGUSR1 dd; do sleep 0.1; done & \
echo mem > /sys/power/state ; \
sleep 5; killall dd # stop after 5 seconds
The interruptible wait was added to blk_queue_enter in
commit 3ef28e83ab ("block: generic request_queue reference counting").
Before then, the interruptible wait was only in blk-mq, but I don't think
it could ever have been correct.

scsi_device_quiesce() uses synchronize_rcu() to guarantee that the
effect of blk_set_preempt_only() will be visible for percpu_ref_tryget()
calls that occur after the queue unfreeze by using the approach
explained in https://lwn.net/Articles/573497/. The rcu read lock and
unlock calls in blk_queue_enter() form a pair with the synchronize_rcu()
call in scsi_device_quiesce(). Both scsi_device_quiesce() and
blk_queue_enter() must either use regular RCU or RCU-sched.
Since neither the RCU-protected code in blk_queue_enter() nor
blk_queue_usage_counter_release() sleeps, regular RCU protection
is sufficient. Note: scsi_device_quiesce() does not have to be
modified since it already uses synchronize_rcu().

spin_lock_irq(lock) (1) spin_lock_irq(blkg->q->queue_lock) (2,5)
q->queue_lock = &q->__queue_lock (3)

(2) busy loop for driver lock;
(3) override driver lock with internal lock;
(4) unlock driver lock;
(5) can take driver lock now;
(6) but unlock internal lock.
This change is safe because only the SCSI core and the NVME core keep
a reference on a request queue after having called blk_cleanup_queue().
Neither driver accesses any of the removed data structures between its
blk_cleanup_queue() and blk_put_queue() calls.

The changes in this patch are as follows:
- Move the .queue_lock initialization from blk_init_queue_node() into
blk_alloc_queue_node().
- Only override the .queue_lock pointer for legacy queues because it
is not useful for blk-mq queues to override this pointer.
- For all all block drivers that initialize .queue_lock explicitly,
change the blk_alloc_queue() call in the driver into a
blk_alloc_queue_node() call and remove the explicit .queue_lock
initialization. Additionally, initialize the spin lock that will
be used as queue lock earlier if necessary.

The classic error injection mechanism, should_fail_request() does not
support use cases where more information is required (from the entire

To that end, this patch introduces should_fail_bio(), which calls
should_fail_request() under the hood but provides a convenient
place for kprobes to hook into if they require the entire struct bio.
This patch also replaces some existing calls to should_fail_request()

print_req_error: I/O error, dev nvme0n1, sector 847167488
Decoding the assembly, the request claims to have 0xffff segments,
while nvme counts two. This turns out to be because we don't check
for a data carrying request on the mq scheduler path, and since
blk_phys_contig_segment() returns true for a non-data request,
we decrement the initial segment count of 0 and end up with
0xffff in the unsigned short.
There are a few issues here:
1) We should initialize the segment count for a discard to 1.
2) The discard merging is currently using the data limits for
segments and sectors.
Fix this up by having attempt_merge() correctly identify the
request, and by initializing the segment count correctly
for discards.
This can only be triggered with mq-deadline on discard capable
devices right now, which isn't a common configuration.

This status is returned from driver to block layer if device related
resource is unavailable, but driver can guarantee that IO dispatch
will be triggered in future when the resource is available.
Convert some drivers to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. Also, if driver
returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE and SCHED_RESTART is set, rerun queue after
a delay (BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE) to avoid IO stalls. BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE is
3 ms because both scsi-mq and nvmefc are using that magic value.
If a driver can make sure there is in-flight IO, it is safe to return
BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE because:
1) If all in-flight IOs complete before examining SCHED_RESTART in
blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), SCHED_RESTART must be cleared, so queue
is run immediately in this case by blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list();
2) if there is any in-flight IO after/when examining SCHED_RESTART
in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list():
- if SCHED_RESTART isn't set, queue is run immediately as handled in 1)
- otherwise, this request will be dispatched after any in-flight IO is
completed via blk_mq_sched_restart()
3) if SCHED_RESTART is set concurently in context because of
BLK_STS_RESOURCE, blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() will cover the above two
cases and make sure IO hang can be avoided.
One invariant is that queue will be rerun if SCHED_RESTART is set.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for block IO related changes for the
4.16 kernel. Nothing major in this pull request, but a good amount of
improvements and fixes all over the map. This contains:
- BFQ improvements, fixes, and cleanups from Angelo, Chiara, and
Paolo.
- Support for SMR zones for deadline and mq-deadline from Damien and
Christoph.
- Set of fixes for bcache by way of Michael Lyle, including fixes
from himself, Kent, Rui, Tang, and Coly.
- Series from Matias for lightnvm with fixes from Hans Holmberg,
Javier, and Matias. Mostly centered around pblk, and the removing
rrpc 1.2 in preparation for supporting 2.0.
- A couple of NVMe pull requests from Christoph. Nothing major in

Johannes.
- Support for blk-throttle for tracking reads and writes separately.
From Joseph Qi. A few cleanups/fixes also for blk-throttle from
Weiping.
- Series from Mike Snitzer that enables dm to register its queue more
logically, something that's alwways been problematic on dm since
it's a stacked device.
- Series from Ming cleaning up some of the bio accessor use, in
preparation for supporting multipage bvecs.
- Various fixes from Ming closing up holes around queue mapping and
quiescing.
- BSD partition fix from Richard Narron, fixing a problem where we
can't mount newer (10/11) FreeBSD partitions.
- Series from Tejun reworking blk-mq timeout handling. The previous
scheme relied on atomic bits, but it had races where we would think
a request had timed out if it to reused at the wrong time.
- null_blk now supports faking timeouts, to enable us to better
exercise and test that functionality separately. From me.
- Kill the separate atomic poll bit in the request struct. After
this, we don't use the atomic bits on blk-mq anymore at all. From
me.
- sgl_alloc/free helpers from Bart.
- Heavily contended tag case scalability improvement from me.

both userspace- and kernel-triggered. Add a generic catch-all check to
generic_make_request_checks() to actually enforce ioctl(BLKROSET) and
set_disk_ro(), which is used by quite a few drivers for things like

blk_insert_cloned_request() is called in the fast path of a dm-rq driver
(e.g. blk-mq request-based DM mpath). blk_insert_cloned_request() uses
blk_mq_request_bypass_insert() to directly append the request to the
blk-mq hctx->dispatch_list of the underlying queue.
1) This way isn't efficient enough because the hctx spinlock is always
used.
2) With blk_insert_cloned_request(), we completely bypass underlying
queue's elevator and depend on the upper-level dm-rq driver's elevator
to schedule IO. But dm-rq currently can't get the underlying queue's
dispatch feedback at all. Without knowing whether a request was issued
or not (e.g. due to underlying queue being busy) the dm-rq elevator will
not be able to provide effective IO merging (as a side-effect of dm-rq
currently blindly destaging a request from its elevator only to requeue
it after a delay, which kills any opportunity for merging). This
obviously causes very bad sequential IO performance.
Fix this by updating blk_insert_cloned_request() to use
blk_mq_request_direct_issue(). blk_mq_request_direct_issue() allows a
request to be issued directly to the underlying queue and returns the
dispatch feedback (blk_status_t). If blk_mq_request_direct_issue()
returns BLK_SYS_RESOURCE the dm-rq driver will now use DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE
to _not_ destage the request. Whereby preserving the opportunity to
merge IO.
With this, request-based DM's blk-mq sequential IO performance is vastly
improved (as much as 3X in mpath/virtio-scsi testing).

Currently, blk-mq timeout path synchronizes against the usual
issue/completion path using a complex scheme involving atomic
bitflags, REQ_ATOM_*, memory barriers and subtle memory coherence
rules. Unfortunately, it contains quite a few holes.
There's a complex dancing around REQ_ATOM_STARTED and
REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE between issue/completion and timeout paths; however,
they don't have a synchronization point across request recycle
instances and it isn't clear what the barriers add.
blk_mq_check_expired() can easily read STARTED from N-2'th iteration,
deadline from N-1'th, blk_mark_rq_complete() against Nth instance.
In fact, it's pretty easy to make blk_mq_check_expired() terminate a
later instance of a request. If we induce 5 sec delay before
time_after_eq() test in blk_mq_check_expired(), shorten the timeout to
2s, and issue back-to-back large IOs, blk-mq starts timing out
requests spuriously pretty quickly. Nothing actually timed out. It
just made the call on a recycle instance of a request and then
terminated a later instance long after the original instance finished.
The scenario isn't theoretical either.
This patch replaces the broken synchronization mechanism with a RCU
and generation number based one.
1. Each request has a u64 generation + state value, which can be
updated only by the request owner. Whenever a request becomes
in-flight, the generation number gets bumped up too. This provides
the basis for the timeout path to distinguish different recycle
instances of the request.
Also, marking a request in-flight and setting its deadline are
protected with a seqcount so that the timeout path can fetch both
values coherently.
2. The timeout path fetches the generation, state and deadline. If
the verdict is timeout, it records the generation into a dedicated
request abortion field and does RCU wait.
3. The completion path is also protected by RCU (from the previous
patch) and checks whether the current generation number and state
match the abortion field. If so, it skips completion.
4. The timeout path, after RCU wait, scans requests again and
terminates the ones whose generation and state still match the ones
requested for abortion.
By now, the timeout path knows that either the generation number
and state changed if it lost the race or the completion will yield
to it and can safely timeout the request.
While it's more lines of code, it's conceptually simpler, doesn't
depend on direct use of subtle memory ordering or coherence, and
hopefully doesn't terminate the wrong instance.
While this change makes REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE synchronization unnecessary
between issue/complete and timeout paths, REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE isn't
removed yet as it's still used in other places. Future patches will
move all state tracking to the new mechanism and remove all bitops in
the hot paths.
Note that this patch adds a comment explaining a race condition in
BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER path. The race has always been there and this
patch doesn't change it. It's just documenting the existing race.

Components relying only on the request_queue structure for accessing
block devices (e.g. I/O schedulers) have a limited knowledged of the
device characteristics. In particular, the device capacity cannot be
easily discovered, which for a zoned block device also result in the
inability to easily know the number of zones of the device (the zone
size is indicated by the chunk_sectors field of the queue limits).
Introduce the nr_zones field to the request_queue structure to simplify
access to this information. Also, add the bitmap seq_zone_bitmap which
indicates which zones of the device are sequential zones (write
preferred or write required) and the bitmap seq_zones_wlock which
indicates if a zone is write locked, that is, if a write request
targeting a zone was dispatched to the device. These fields are
initialized by the low level block device driver (sd.c for ZBC/ZAC
disks). They are not initialized by stacking drivers (device mappers)
handling zoned block devices (e.g. dm-linear).
Using this, I/O schedulers can introduce zone write locking to control
request dispatching to a zoned block device and avoid write request
reordering by limiting to at most a single write request per zone
outside of the scheduler at any time.

The contexts from which a SCSI device can be quiesced or resumed are:
* Writing into /sys/class/scsi_device/*/device/state.
* SCSI parallel (SPI) domain validation.
* The SCSI device power management methods. See also scsi_bus_pm_ops.
It is essential during suspend and resume that neither the filesystem
state nor the filesystem metadata in RAM changes. This is why while
the hibernation image is being written or restored that SCSI devices
are quiesced. The SCSI core quiesces devices through scsi_device_quiesce()
and scsi_device_resume(). In the SDEV_QUIESCE state execution of
non-preempt requests is deferred. This is realized by returning
BLKPREP_DEFER from inside scsi_prep_state_check() for quiesced SCSI
devices. Avoid that a full queue prevents power management requests
to be submitted by deferring allocation of non-preempt requests for
devices in the quiesced state. This patch has been tested by running
the following commands and by verifying that after each resume the
fio job was still running:
for ((i=0; i<10; i++)); do

cd /sys/block/md0/md &&

The lockdep code had reported the following unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(s_active#228);
lock(&bdev->bd_mutex/1);
lock(s_active#228);
lock(&bdev->bd_mutex);
*** DEADLOCK ***
The deadlock may happen when one task (CPU1) is trying to delete a
partition in a block device and another task (CPU0) is accessing
tracing sysfs file (e.g. /sys/block/dm-1/trace/act_mask) in that
partition.
The s_active isn't an actual lock. It is a reference count (kn->count)
on the sysfs (kernfs) file. Removal of a sysfs file, however, require
a wait until all the references are gone. The reference count is
treated like a rwsem using lockdep instrumentation code.
The fact that a thread is in the sysfs callback method or in the
ioctl call means there is a reference to the opended sysfs or device
file. That should prevent the underlying block structure from being
removed.
Instead of using bd_mutex in the block_device structure, a new
blk_trace_mutex is now added to the request_queue structure to protect
access to the blk_trace structure.

A NULL pointer crash was reported for the case of having the BFQ IO
scheduler attached to the underlying blk-mq paths of a DM multipath
device. The crash occured in blk_mq_sched_insert_request()'s call to
e->type->ops.mq.insert_requests().
Paolo Valente correctly summarized why the crash occured with:
"the call chain (dm_mq_queue_rq -> map_request -> setup_clone ->
blk_rq_prep_clone) creates a cloned request without invoking
e->type->ops.mq.prepare_request for the target elevator e. The cloned
request is therefore not initialized for the scheduler, but it is
however inserted into the scheduler by blk_mq_sched_insert_request."
All said, a request-based DM multipath device's IO scheduler should be
the only one used -- when the original requests are issued to the
underlying paths as cloned requests they are inserted directly in the
underlying dispatch queue(s) rather than through an additional elevator.
But commit bd166ef18 ("blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO
schedulers") switched blk_insert_cloned_request() from using
blk_mq_insert_request() to blk_mq_sched_insert_request(). Which
incorrectly added elevator machinery into a call chain that isn't
supposed to have any.
To fix this introduce a blk-mq private blk_mq_request_bypass_insert()
that blk_insert_cloned_request() calls to insert the request without
involving any elevator that may be attached to the cloned request's
request_queue.

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.

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.

All callers of bioset_create() that are inside block device drivers,

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,

biosets used by md/raid do not need rescuing as

Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings. This patch
instead introduces a new blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning. Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.
For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.
blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

The only difference between ->run_work and ->delay_work, is that
the latter is used to defer running a queue. This is done by
marking the queue stopped, and scheduling ->delay_work to run
sometime in the future. While the queue is stopped, direct runs
or runs through ->run_work will not run the queue.
If we combine the handlers, then we need to handle two things:
1) If a delayed/stopped run is scheduled, then we should not run
the queue before that has been completed.
2) If a queue is delayed/stopped, the handler needs to restart
the queue. Normally a run of a queue with the stopped bit set
would be a no-op.
Case 1 is handled by modifying a currently pending queue run
to the deadline set by the caller of blk_mq_delay_queue().
Subsequent attempts to queue a queue run will find the work
item already pending, and direct runs will see a stopped queue
as before.
Case 2 is handled by adding a new bit, BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN,
that tells the work handler that it should clear a stopped
queue and run the handler.

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.

having the caller check for that, fixing another oops on
removal of a block device that doesn't have poll stats allocated.

Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
Currently, statistics are gathered in ~0.13s windows, and users grab the
statistics whenever they need them. This is not ideal for both in-tree
users:
1. Writeback throttling wants its own dynamically sized window of
statistics. Since the blk-stats statistics are reset after every
window and the wbt windows don't line up with the blk-stats windows,
wbt doesn't see every I/O.
2. Polling currently grabs the statistics on every I/O. Again, depending
on how the window lines up, we may miss some I/Os. It's also
unnecessary overhead to get the statistics on every I/O; the hybrid
polling heuristic would be just as happy with the statistics from the
previous full window.
This reworks the blk-stats infrastructure to be callback-based: users
register a callback that they want called at a given time with all of
the statistics from the window during which the callback was active.
Users can dynamically bucketize the statistics. wbt and polling both
currently use read vs. write, but polling can be extended to further
subdivide based on request size.
The callbacks are kept on an RCU list, and each callback has percpu
stats buffers. There will only be a few users, so the overhead on the
I/O completion side is low. The stats flushing is also simplified
considerably: since the timer function is responsible for clearing the
statistics, we don't have to worry about stale statistics.
wbt is a trivial conversion. After the conversion, the windowing problem
mentioned above is fixed.
For polling, we register an extra callback that caches the previous
window's statistics in the struct request_queue for the hybrid polling
heuristic to use.
Since we no longer have a single stats buffer for the request queue,
this also removes the sysfs and debugfs stats entries. To replace those,
we add a debugfs entry for the poll statistics.

Commit 79bd99596b ("blk: improve order of bio handling in generic_make_request()")
changed current->bio_list so that it did not contain *all* of the
queued bios, but only those submitted by the currently running
make_request_fn.
There are two places which walk the list and requeue selected bios,
and others that check if the list is empty. These are no longer
correct.
So redefine current->bio_list to point to an array of two lists, which
contain all queued bios, and adjust various code to test or walk both
lists.

Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
To avoid recursion on the kernel stack when stacked block devices
are in use, generic_make_request() will, when called recursively,
queue new requests for later handling. They will be handled when the
make_request_fn for the current bio completes.
If any bios are submitted by a make_request_fn, these will ultimately
be handled seqeuntially. If the handling of one of those generates
further requests, they will be added to the end of the queue.
This strict first-in-first-out behaviour can lead to deadlocks in
various ways, normally because a request might need to wait for a
previous request to the same device to complete. This can happen when
they share a mempool, and can happen due to interdependencies
particular to the device. Both md and dm have examples where this happens.
These deadlocks can be erradicated by more selective ordering of bios.
Specifically by handling them in depth-first order. That is: when the
handling of one bio generates one or more further bios, they are
handled immediately after the parent, before any siblings of the
parent. That way, when generic_make_request() calls make_request_fn
for some particular device, we can be certain that all previously
submited requests for that device have been completely handled and are
not waiting for anything in the queue of requests maintained in
generic_make_request().
An easy way to achieve this would be to use a last-in-first-out stack
instead of a queue. However this will change the order of consecutive
bios submitted by a make_request_fn, which could have unexpected consequences.
Instead we take a slightly more complex approach.
A fresh queue is created for each call to a make_request_fn. After it completes,
any bios for a different device are placed on the front of the main queue, followed
by any bios for the same device, followed by all bios that were already on
the queue before the make_request_fn was called.
This provides the depth-first approach without reordering bios on the same level.
This, by itself, it not enough to remove all deadlocks. It just makes
it possible for drivers to take the extra step required themselves.
To avoid deadlocks, drivers must never risk waiting for a request
after submitting one to generic_make_request. This includes never
allocing from a mempool twice in the one call to a make_request_fn.
A common pattern in drivers is to call bio_split() in a loop, handling
the first part and then looping around to possibly split the next part.
Instead, a driver that finds it needs to split a bio should queue
(with generic_make_request) the second part, handle the first part,
and then return. The new code in generic_make_request will ensure the
requests to underlying bios are processed first, then the second bio
that was split off. If it splits again, the same process happens. In
each case one bio will be completely handled before the next one is attempted.
With this is place, it should be possible to disable the
punt_bios_to_recover() recovery thread for many block devices, and
eventually it may be possible to remove it completely.

Commit 6cd18e711d "block: destroy bdi before blockdev is
unregistered." moved bdi unregistration (at that time through
bdi_destroy()) from blk_release_queue() to blk_cleanup_queue() because
it needs to happen before blk_unregister_region() call in del_gendisk()
for MD. SCSI though will free up the device number from sd_remove()
called through a maze of callbacks from device_del() in
__scsi_remove_device() before blk_cleanup_queue() and thus similar races
as described in 6cd18e711d can happen for SCSI as well as reported by
Omar [1].
Moving bdi_unregister() to del_gendisk() works for MD and fixes the
problem for SCSI since del_gendisk() gets called from sd_remove() before
freeing the device number.
This also makes device_add_disk() (calling bdi_register_owner()) more
symmetric with del_gendisk().

If we end up doing a request-to-request merge when we have completed
a bio-to-request merge, we free the request from deep down in that
path. For blk-mq-sched, the merge path has to hold the appropriate
lock, but we don't need it for freeing the request. And in fact
holding the lock is problematic, since we are now calling the
mq sched put_rq_private() hook with the lock held. Other call paths
do not hold this lock.
Fix this inconsistency by ensuring that the caller frees a merged
request. Then we can do it outside of the lock, making it both more
efficient and fixing the blk-mq-sched problem of invoking parts of
the scheduler with an unknown lock state.

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

generic_make_request_checks() would accept a REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME bio only
if the block device supports "write same" *and* is a zoned one:

Enable throttling of buffered writeback to make it a lot
more smooth, and has way less impact on other system activity.
Background writeback should be, by definition, background
activity. The fact that we flush huge bundles of it at the time
means that it potentially has heavy impacts on foreground workloads,
which isn't ideal. We can't easily limit the sizes of writes that
we do, since that would impact file system layout in the presence
of delayed allocation. So just throttle back buffered writeback,
unless someone is waiting for it.
The algorithm for when to throttle takes its inspiration in the
CoDel networking scheduling algorithm. Like CoDel, blk-wb monitors
the minimum latencies of requests over a window of time. In that
window of time, if the minimum latency of any request exceeds a
given target, then a scale count is incremented and the queue depth
is shrunk. The next monitoring window is shrunk accordingly. Unlike
CoDel, if we hit a window that exhibits good behavior, then we
simply increment the scale count and re-calculate the limits for that
scale value. This prevents us from oscillating between a
close-to-ideal value and max all the time, instead remaining in the
windows where we get good behavior.
Unlike CoDel, blk-wb allows the scale count to to negative. This
happens if we primarily have writes going on. Unlike positive
scale counts, this doesn't change the size of the monitoring window.
When the heavy writers finish, blk-bw quickly snaps back to it's
stable state of a zero scale count.
The patch registers a sysfs entry, 'wb_lat_usec'. This sets the latency
target to me met. It defaults to 2 msec for non-rotational storage, and
75 msec for rotational storage. Setting this value to '0' disables
blk-wb. Generally, a user would not have to touch this setting.
We don't enable WBT on devices that are managed with CFQ, and have
a non-root block cgroup attached. If we have a proportional share setup
on this particular disk, then the wbt throttling will interfere with
that. We don't have a strong need for wbt for that case, since we will
rely on CFQ doing that for us.

For legacy block, we simply track them in the request queue. For
blk-mq, we track them on a per-sw queue basis, which we can then
sum up through the hardware queues and finally to a per device
state.
The stats are tracked in, roughly, 0.1s interval windows.
Add sysfs files to display the stats.
The feature is off by default, to avoid any extra overhead. In-kernel
users of it can turn it on by setting QUEUE_FLAG_STATS in the queue
flags. We currently don't turn it on if someone just reads any of
the stats files, that is something we could add as well.

Currently block plug holds up to 16 non-mergeable requests. This makes
sense if the request size is small, eg, reduce lock contention. But if
request size is big enough, we don't need to worry about lock
contention. Holding such request makes no sense and it lows the disk
utilization.
In practice, this improves 10% throughput for my raid5 sequential write
workload.
The size (128k) is arbitrary right now, but it makes sure lock
contention is small. This probably could be more intelligent, eg, check
average request size holded. Since this is mainly for sequential IO,
probably not worthy.
V2: check the last request instead of the first request, so as long as
there is one big size request we flush the plug.

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.
In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.
Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of
use to the block layer and a few drivers that dig into struct request
internals.
This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for
them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests. It
also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields
from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for
struct request.

Patch adds an association between iocontext ioprio and the ioprio of a
request. This is done to enable request based drivers the ability to
act on priority information stored in the request. An example being
ATA devices that support command priorities. If the ATA driver discovers
that the device supports command priorities and the request has valid
priority information indicating the request is high priority, then a high
priority command can be sent to the device. This should improve tail
latencies for high priority IO on any device that queues requests
internally and can make use of the priority information stored in the
request.
The ioprio of the request is set in blk_rq_set_prio which takes the
request and the ioc as arguments. If the ioc is valid in blk_rq_set_prio
then the iopriority of the request is set as the iopriority of the ioc.
In init_request_from_bio a check is made to see if the ioprio of the bio
is valid and if so then the request prio comes from the bio.

In order to help determine the effectiveness of polling in a running

function is called vs how often the completion is checked. For this

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.

Pull block driver updates from Jens Axboe:
"This branch also contains core changes. I've come to the conclusion
that from 4.9 and forward, I'll be doing just a single branch. We
often have dependencies between core and drivers, and it's hard to
always split them up appropriately without pulling core into drivers
when that happens.
That said, this contains:
- separate secure erase type for the core block layer, from
Christoph.
- set of discard fixes, from Christoph.
- bio shrinking fixes from Christoph, as a followup up to the
op/flags change in the core branch.
- map and append request fixes from Christoph.
- NVMeF (NVMe over Fabrics) code from Christoph. This is pretty
exciting!
- nvme-loop fixes from Arnd.
- removal of ->driverfs_dev from Dan, after providing a
device_add_disk() helper.
- bcache fixes from Bhaktipriya and Yijing.
- cdrom subchannel read fix from Vchannaiah.
- set of lightnvm updates from Wenwei, Matias, Johannes, and Javier.
- set of drbd updates and fixes from Fabian, Lars, and Philipp.
- mg_disk error path fix from Bart.
- user notification for failed device add for loop, from Minfei.
- NVMe in general:
+ NVMe delay quirk from Guilherme.
+ SR-IOV support and command retry limits from Keith.
+ fix for memory-less NUMA node from Masayoshi.
+ use UINT_MAX for discard sectors, from Minfei.
+ cancel IO fixes from Ming.
+ don't allocate unused major, from Neil.
+ error code fixup from Dan.
+ use constants for PSDT/FUSE from James.
+ variable init fix from Jay.
+ fabrics fixes from Ming, Sagi, and Wei.
+ various fixes"

I wish the OSD code could simply use blk_rq_map_* helpers like
everyone else, but the complex nature of deciding if we have
DATA IN and/or DATA OUT buffers might make this impossible
(at least for a mere human like me).
But using blk_rq_append_bio at least allows sharing the setup code
between request with or without dat a buffers, and given that this
is the last user of blk_make_request it allows getting rid of that
somewhat awkward interface.

The target SCSI passthrough backend is much better served with the low-level
blk_rq_append_bio construct then the helpers built on top of it, so export it.
Also use the opportunity to remove the pointless request_queue argument and
make the code flow a little more readable.
