If the function bfq_update_next_in_service is invoked as a consequence
of the activation or requeueing of an entity, say E, then it doesn't
invoke bfq_lookup_next_entity to get the next-in-service entity. In
contrast, it follows a shorter path: if E happens to be eligible (see
commit "bfq-sq-mq: make lookup_next_entity push up vtime on
expirations" for details on eligibility) and to have a lower virtual
finish time than the current candidate as next-in-service entity, then
E directly becomes the next-in-service entity. Unfortunately, there is
a corner case for which this shorter path makes
bfq_update_next_in_service choose a non eligible entity: it occurs if
both E and the current next-in-service entity happen to be non
eligible when bfq_update_next_in_service is invoked. In this case, E
is not set as next-in-service, and, since bfq_lookup_next_entity is
not invoked, the state of the parent entity is not updated so as to
end up with an eligible entity as the proper next-in-service entity.
In this respect, next-in-service is actually allowed to be non
eligible while some queue is in service: since no system-virtual-time
push-up can be performed in that case (see again commit "bfq-sq-mq:
make lookup_next_entity push up vtime on expirations" for details),
next-in-service is chosen, speculatively, as a function of the
possible value that the system virtual time may get after a push
up. But the correctness of the schedule breaks if next-in-service is
still a non eligible entity when it is time to set in service the next
entity. Unfortunately, this may happen in the above corner case.
This commit fixes this problem by making bfq_update_next_in_service
invoke bfq_lookup_next_entity not only if the above shorter path
cannot be taken, but also if the shorter path is taken but fails to
yield an eligible next-in-service entity.

If the function bfq_update_next_in_service is invoked as a consequence
of the activation or requeueing of an entity, say E, and finds out
that E belongs to a higher-priority class than that of the current
next-in-service entity, then it sets next_in_service directly to
E. But this may lead to anomalous schedules, because E may happen not
be eligible for service, because its virtual start time is higher than
the system virtual time for its service tree.
This commit addresses this issue by simply removing this direct
switch.

To provide a very smooth service, bfq starts to serve a bfq_queue
only if the queue is 'eligible', i.e., if the same queue would
have started to be served in the ideal, perfectly fair system that
bfq simulates internally. This is obtained by associating each
queue with a virtual start time, and by computing a special system
virtual time quantity: a queue is eligible only if the system
virtual time has reached the virtual start time of the
queue. Finally, bfq guarantees that, when a new queue must be set
in service, there is always at least one eligible entity for each
active parent entity in the scheduler. To provide this guarantee,
the function __bfq_lookup_next_entity pushes up, for each parent
entity on which it is invoked, the system virtual time to the
minimum among the virtual start times of the entities in the
active tree for the parent entity (more precisely, the push up
occurs if the system virtual time happens to be lower than all
such virtual start times).
There is however a circumstance in which __bfq_lookup_next_entity
cannot push up the system virtual time for a parent entity, even
if the system virtual time is lower than the virtual start times
of all the child entities in the active tree. It happens if one of
the child entities is in service. In fact, in such a case, there
is already an eligible entity, the in-service one, even if it may
not be not present in the active tree (because in-service entities
may be removed from the active tree).
Unfortunately, in the last re-design of the
hierarchical-scheduling engine, the reset of the pointer to the
in-service entity for a given parent entity--reset to be done as a
consequence of the expiration of the in-service entity--always
happens after the function __bfq_lookup_next_entity has been
invoked. This causes the function to think that there is still an
entity in service for the parent entity, and then that the system
virtual time cannot be pushed up, even if actually such a
no-more-in-service entity has already been properly reinserted
into the active tree (or in some other tree if no more
active). Yet, the system virtual time *had* to be pushed up, to be
ready to correctly choose the next queue to serve. Because of the
lack of this push up, bfq may wrongly set in service a queue that
had been speculatively pre-computed as the possible
next-in-service queue, but that would no more be the one to serve
after the expiration and the reinsertion into the active trees of
the previously in-service entities.
This commit addresses this issue by making
__bfq_lookup_next_entity properly push up the system virtual time
if an expiration is occurring.

There is a race between changing I/O elevator and request_queue removal
which can trigger the warning in kobject_add_internal. A program can
use sysfs to request a change of elevator at the same time another task
is unregistering the request_queue the elevator would be attached to.
The elevator's kobject will then attempt to be connected to the
request_queue in the object tree when the request_queue has just been
removed from sysfs. This triggers the warning in kobject_add_internal
as the request_queue no longer has a sysfs directory:
kobject_add_internal failed for iosched (error: -2 parent: queue)
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 14075 at lib/kobject.c:244 kobject_add_internal+0x103/0x2d0
To fix this warning, we can check the QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED flag when
changing the elevator and use the request_queue's sysfs_lock to
serialize between clearing the flag and the elevator testing the flag.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
This patch moves bsg-lib to allocate and setup struct bsg_job ahead of
time, including the allocation of a buffer for the reply-data.
This means, struct bsg_job is not allocated separately anymore, but as part
of struct request allocation - similar to struct scsi_cmd. Reflect this in
the function names that used to handle creation/destruction of struct
bsg_job.

This is used if dm-integrity is stacked under a dm-crypt device

In this case the verification is done through own crypto API

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.

In below scenario blkio cgroup does not work as per their assigned
weights :-
1. When the underlying device is nonrotational with a single HW queue
with depth of >= CFQ_HW_QUEUE_MIN
2. When the use case is forming two blkio cgroups cg1(weight 1000) &
cg2(wight 100) and two processes(file1 and file2) doing sync IO in
their respective blkio cgroups.
For above usecase result of fio (without this patch):-
file1: (groupid=0, jobs=1): err= 0: pid=685: Thu Jan 1 19:41:49 1970
write: IOPS=1315, BW=41.1MiB/s (43.1MB/s)(1024MiB/24906msec)
<...>
file2: (groupid=0, jobs=1): err= 0: pid=686: Thu Jan 1 19:41:49 1970
write: IOPS=1295, BW=40.5MiB/s (42.5MB/s)(1024MiB/25293msec)
<...>
// both the process BW is equal even though they belong to diff.
cgroups with weight of 1000(cg1) and 100(cg2)
In above case (for non rotational NCQ devices),
as soon as the request from cg1 is completed and even
though it is provided with higher set_slice=10, because of CFQ
algorithm when the driver tries to fetch the request, CFQ expires
this group without providing any idle time nor weight priority
and schedules another cfq group (in this case cg2).
And thus both cfq groups(cg1 & cg2) keep alternating to get the
disk time and hence loses the cgroup weight based scheduling.
Below patch gives a chance to cfq algorithm (cfq_arm_slice_timer)
to arm the slice timer in case group_idle is enabled.
In case if group_idle is also not required (including for nonrotational
NCQ drives), we need to explicitly set group_idle = 0 from sysfs for
such cases.
With this patch result of fio(for above usecase) :-

When a queue associated with a process remains empty, there are cases
where throughput gets boosted if the device is idled to await the
arrival of a new I/O request for that queue. Currently, BFQ assumes
that one of these cases is when the device has no internal queueing
(regardless of the properties of the I/O being served). Unfortunately,
this condition has proved to be too general. So, this commit refines it
as "the device has no internal queueing and is rotational".
This refinement provides a significant throughput boost with random
I/O, on flash-based storage without internal queueing. For example, on
a HiKey board, throughput increases by up to 125%, growing, e.g., from
6.9MB/s to 15.6MB/s with two or three random readers in parallel.

The logic that decides whether to idle the device is scattered across
three functions. Almost all of the logic is in the function
bfq_bfqq_may_idle, but (1) part of the decision is made in
bfq_update_idle_window, and (2) the function bfq_bfqq_must_idle may
switch off idling regardless of the output of bfq_bfqq_may_idle. In
addition, both bfq_update_idle_window and bfq_bfqq_must_idle make
their decisions as a function of parameters that are used, for similar
purposes, also in bfq_bfqq_may_idle. This commit addresses these
issues by moving all the logic into bfq_bfqq_may_idle.

The blk_mq_delay_kick_requeue_list() function is used by the device
mapper and only by the device mapper to rerun the queue and requeue
list after a delay. This function is called once per request that
gets requeued. Modify this function such that the queue is run once
per path change event instead of once per request that is requeued.

In dm-integrity target we register integrity profile that have
both generate_fn and verify_fn callbacks set to NULL.
This is used if dm-integrity is stacked under a dm-crypt device
for authenticated encryption (integrity payload contains authentication
tag and IV seed).
In this case the verification is done through own crypto API
processing inside dm-crypt; integrity profile is only holder
of these data. (And memory is owned by dm-crypt as well.)

We don't have to inc/dec some counter, since we can just
iterate the tags. That makes inc/dec a noop, but means we
have to iterate busy tags to get an in-flight count.

Instead of returning the count that matches the partition, pass
in an array of two ints. Index 0 will be filled with the inflight
count for the partition in question, and index 1 will filled
with the root inflight count, if the partition passed in is not the
root.
This is in preparation for being able to calculate both in one
go.

Since we introduced blk-mq-sched, the tags->rqs[] array has been
dynamically assigned. So we need to check for NULL when iterating,
since there's a window of time where the bit is set, but we haven't
dynamically assigned the tags->rqs[] array position yet.
This is perfectly safe, since the memory backing of the request is
never going away while the device is alive.

We recently had a bug in the IPR SCSI driver, where it would end up
making the SCSI mid layer run the mq hardware queue with interrupts
disabled. This isn't legal, since the software queue locking relies
on never being grabbed from interrupt context. Additionally, drivers
that set BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING may schedule from this context.

Groups of BFQ queues are represented by generic entities in BFQ. When
a queue belonging to a parent entity is deactivated, the parent entity
may need to be deactivated too, in case the deactivated queue was the
only active queue for the parent entity. This deactivation may need to
be propagated upwards if the entity belongs, in its turn, to a further
higher-level entity, and so on. In particular, the upward propagation
of deactivation stops at the first parent entity that remains active
even if one of its child entities has been deactivated.
To decide whether the last non-deactivation condition holds for a
parent entity, BFQ checks whether the field next_in_service is still
not NULL for the parent entity, after the deactivation of one of its
child entity. If it is not NULL, then there are certainly other active
entities in the parent entity, and deactivations can stop.
Unfortunately, this check misses a corner case: if in_service_entity
is not NULL, then next_in_service may happen to be NULL, although the
parent entity is evidently active. This happens if: 1) the entity
pointed by in_service_entity is the only active entity in the parent
entity, and 2) according to the definition of next_in_service, the
in_service_entity cannot be considered as next_in_service. See the
comments on the definition of next_in_service for details on this
second point.
Hitting the above corner case causes crashes.
To address this issue, this commit:
1) Extends the above check on only next_in_service to controlling both
next_in_service and in_service_entity (if any of them is not NULL,
then no further deactivation is performed)
2) Improves the (important) comments on how next_in_service is defined
and updated; in particular it fixes a few rather obscure paragraphs

BFQ implements hierarchical scheduling by representing each group of
queues with a generic parent entity. For each parent entity, BFQ
maintains an in_service_entity pointer: if one of the child entities
happens to be in service, in_service_entity points to it. The
resetting of these pointers happens only on queue expirations: when
the in-service queue is expired, i.e., stops to be the queue in
service, BFQ resets all in_service_entity pointers along the
parent-entity path from this queue to the root entity.
Functions handling the scheduling of entities assume, naturally, that
in-service entities are active, i.e., have pending I/O requests (or,
as a special case, even if they have no pending requests, they are
expected to receive a new request very soon, with the scheduler idling
the storage device while waiting for such an event). Unfortunately,
the above resetting scheme of the in_service_entity pointers may cause
this assumption to be violated. For example, the in-service queue may
happen to remain without requests because of a request merge. In this
case the queue does become idle, and all related data structures are
updated accordingly. But in_service_entity still points to the queue
in the parent entity. This inconsistency may even propagate to
higher-level parent entities, if they happen to become idle as well,
as a consequence of the leaf queue becoming idle. For this queue and
parent entities, scheduling functions have an undefined behaviour,
and, as reported, may easily lead to kernel crashes or hangs.
This commit addresses this issue by simply resetting the
in_service_entity field also when it is detected to point to an entity
becoming idle (regardless of why the entity becomes idle).
