In case a submitted request gets stuck for some reason, the block layer
can prevent the request starvation by starting the scheduled timeout work.
If this stuck request occurs at the same time another thread has started
a queue freeze, the blk_mq_timeout_work will not be able to acquire the
queue reference and will return silently, thus not issuing the timeout.
But since the request is already holding a q_usage_counter reference and
is unable to complete, it will never release its reference, preventing
the queue from completing the freeze started by first thread. This puts
the request_queue in a hung state, forever waiting for the freeze
completion.
This was observed while running IO to a NVMe device at the same time we
toggled the CPU hotplug code. Eventually, once a request got stuck
requiring a timeout during a queue freeze, we saw the CPU Hotplug
notification code get stuck inside blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait, as shown in
the trace below.

The fix is to allow the timeout work to execute in the window between
dropping the initial refcount reference and the release of the last
reference, which actually marks the freeze completion. This can be
achieved with percpu_refcount_tryget, which does not require the counter
to be alive. This way the timeout work can do it's job and terminate a
stuck request even during a freeze, returning its reference and avoiding
the deadlock.
Allowing the timeout to run is just a part of the fix, since for some
devices, we might get stuck again inside the device driver's timeout
handler, should it attempt to allocate a new request in that path -
which is a quite common action for Abort commands, which need to be sent
after a timeout. In NVMe, for instance, we call blk_mq_alloc_request
from inside the timeout handler, which will fail during a freeze, since
it also tries to acquire a queue reference.
I considered a similar change to blk_mq_alloc_request as a generic
solution for further device driver hangs, but we can't do that, since it
would allow new requests to disturb the freeze process. I thought about
creating a new function in the block layer to support unfreezable
requests for these occasions, but after working on it for a while, I
feel like this should be handled in a per-driver basis. I'm now
experimenting with changes to the NVMe timeout path, but I'm open to
suggestions of ways to make this generic.

This problem can occur in the following situation:
open()
- pread()
- .seq_start()
- iter = kmalloc() // succeeds
- seqf->private = iter
- .seq_stop()
- kfree(seqf->private)
- pread()
- .seq_start()
- iter = kmalloc() // fails
- .seq_stop()
- class_dev_iter_exit(seqf->private) // boom! old pointer
As the comment in disk_seqf_stop() says, stop is called even if start
failed, so we need to reinitialise the private pointer to NULL when seq
iteration stops.
An alternative would be to set the private pointer to NULL when the
kmalloc() in disk_seqf_start() fails.

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.

Before merging a bio into an existing request, io scheduler is called to
get its approval first. However, the requests that come from a plug
flush may get merged by block layer without consulting with io
scheduler.
In case of CFQ, this can cause fairness problems. For instance, if a
request gets merged into a low weight cgroup's request, high weight cgroup
now will depend on low weight cgroup to get scheduled. If high weigt cgroup
needs that io request to complete before submitting more requests, then it
will also lose its timeslice.
Following script demonstrates the problem. Group g1 has a low weight, g2
and g3 have equal high weights but g2's requests are adjacent to g1's
requests so they are subject to merging. Due to these merges, g2 gets
poor disk time allocation.

But using blk_rq_append_bio at least allows sharing the setup code

This patch intoroduces a new BLKDEV_DISCARD_ZERO flag to

The new nvme-rdma driver will need to reinitialize all the tags as part of
the error recovery procedure (realloc the tag memory region). Add a helper
in blk-mq for it that can iterate over all requests in a tagset to make

Commit 9a7f38c42c (cfq-iosched: Convert from jiffies to nanoseconds)
could result in charging just 1 ns to a cgroup submitting IO instead of 1

to change but for now lets retain the old behavior of always charging at

Commit 9a7f38c42c (cfq-iosched: Convert from jiffies to nanoseconds)
broke the condition for detecting starved sync IO in
cfq_completed_request() because rq->start_time remained in jiffies but
we compared it with nanosecond values. This manifested as a regression
in bonnie++ rewrite performance because we always ended up considering
sync IO starved and thus never increased async IO queue depth.
Since rq->start_time is used in a lot of places, converting it to ns
values would be non-trivial. So just revert the condition in CFQ to use
comparison with jiffies. This will lead to suboptimal results if
cfq_fifo_expire[1] will ever come close to 1 jiffie but so far we are
relatively far from that with the storage used with CFQ (the default
value is 128 ms).

Currently rq->fifo_time is unsigned long but CFQ stores nanosecond
timestamp in it which would overflow on 32-bit archs. Convert it to u64
to avoid the overflow. Since the rq->fifo_time is unioned with struct
call_single_data(), this does not change the size of struct request in
any way.
We have to slightly fixup block/deadline-iosched.c so that comparison

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.

Commit 38f2525533 ("block: add __blkdev_issue_discard") incorrectly
disallowed the early return of -EOPNOTSUPP if the device doesn't support
discard (or secure discard). This early return of -EOPNOTSUPP has
always been part of blkdev_issue_discard() interface so there isn't a
good reason to break that behaviour -- especially when it can be easily
reinstated.
The nuance of allowing early return of -EOPNOTSUPP vs disallowing late
return of -EOPNOTSUPP is: if the overall device never advertised support
for discards and one is issued to the device it is beneficial to inform
the caller that discards are not supported via -EOPNOTSUPP. But if a
device advertises discard support it means that at least a subset of the
device does have discard support -- but it could be that discards issued
to some regions of a stacked device will not be supported. In that case
the late return of -EOPNOTSUPP must be disallowed.

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
"A few fixes for the current series. This contains:
- Two fixes for NVMe:
One fixes a reset race that can be triggered by repeated
insert/removal of the module.
The other fixes an issue on some platforms, where we get probe
timeouts since legacy interrupts isn't working. This used not to
be a problem since we had the worker thread poll for completions,
but since that was killed off, it means those poor souls can't
successfully probe their NVMe device. Use a proper IRQ check and
probe (msi-x -> msi ->legacy), like most other drivers to work
around this. Both from Keith.
- A loop corruption issue with offset in iters, from Ming Lei.
- A fix for not having the partition stat per cpu ref count
initialized before sending out the KOBJ_ADD, which could cause user
space to access the counter prior to initialization. Also from
Ming Lei.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

This patch has been carried in the Android tree for quite some time and
is one of the few patches required to get a mainline kernel up and

for review and consideration if it should be merged.
For partitions, add new uevent parameters 'PARTN' which specifies the
partitions index in the table, and 'PARTNAME', which specifies PARTNAME
specifices the partition name of a partition device.
Android's userspace uses this for creating device node links from the
partition name and number, ie:
/dev/block/platform/soc/by-name/system
or
/dev/block/platform/soc/by-num/p1
