Jens Axboe 506e931f92 blk-mq: add basic round-robin of what CPU to queue workqueue work on
Right now we just pick the first CPU in the mask, but that can
easily overload that one. Add some basic batching and round-robin
all the entries in the mask instead.

Refactor the logic around adding a new bio to a software queue,
so we nest the ctx->lock where we really need it (merge and
insertion) and don't hold it when we don't (init and IO start

Jens Axboe 5810d903fa blk-mq: fix waiting for reserved tags
blk_mq_wait_for_tags() is only able to wait for "normal" tags,
not reserved tags. Pass in which one we should attempt to get
a tag for, so that waiting for reserved tags will work.

Reserved tags are used for internal commands, which are usually
serialized. Hence no waiting generally takes place, but we should
ensure that it actually works if users need that functionality.

Christoph Hellwig 3853520163 blk-mq: respect rq_affinity
The blk-mq code is using it's own version of the I/O completion affinity
tunables, which causes a few issues:

 - the rq_affinity sysfs file doesn't work for blk-mq devices, even if it
   still is present, thus breaking existing tuning setups.
 - the rq_affinity = 1 mode, which is the defauly for legacy request based
   drivers isn't implemented at all.
 - blk-mq drivers don't implement any completion affinity with the default
   flag settings.

This patches removes the blk-mq ipi_redirect flag and sysfs file, as well
as the internal BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_IPI flag and replaces it with code that
respects the queue-wide rq_affinity flags and also implements the
rq_affinity = 1 mode.

This means I/O completion affinity can now only be tuned block-queue wide
instead of per context, which seems more sensible to me anyway.

Jens Axboe 87ee7b1121 blk-mq: fix race with timeouts and requeue events
If a requeue event races with a timeout, we can get into the
situation where we attempt to complete a request from the
timeout handler when it's not start anymore. This causes a crash.
So have the timeout handler check that REQ_ATOM_STARTED is still
set on the request - if not, we ignore the event. If this happens,
the request has now been marked as complete. As a consequence, we
need to ensure to clear REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE in blk_mq_start_request(),
as to maintain proper request state.

Christoph Hellwig e9b267d91f blk-mq: add ->init_request and ->exit_request methods
The current blk_mq_init_commands/blk_mq_free_commands interface has a
two problems:

 1) Because only the constructor is passed to blk_mq_init_commands there
    is no easy way to clean up when a comman initialization failed.  The
    current code simply leaks the allocations done in the constructor.

 2) There is no good place to call blk_mq_free_commands: before
    blk_cleanup_queue there is no guarantee that all outstanding
    commands have completed, so we can't free them yet.  After
    blk_cleanup_queue the queue has usually been freed.  This can be
    worked around by grabbing an unconditional reference before calling
    blk_cleanup_queue and dropping it after blk_mq_free_commands is
    done, although that's not exatly pretty and driver writers are
    guaranteed to get it wrong sooner or later.

Both issues are easily fixed by making the request constructor and
destructor normal blk_mq_ops methods.

Frederic Weisbecker c46fff2a3b smp: Rename __smp_call_function_single() to smp_call_function_single_async()
The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().

The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.

As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.

Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

Frederic Weisbecker fce8ad1568 smp: Remove wait argument from __smp_call_function_single()
The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.

This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.

This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.

Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:

1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
   in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
   sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.

   But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
   can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
   and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.

   Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
   because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
   for this csd.

2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
   is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
   can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
   stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.

Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.

There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.

Shaohua Li f0276924fa blk-mq: Don't reserve a tag for flush request
Reserving a tag (request) for flush to avoid dead lock is a overkill. A
tag is valuable resource. We can track the number of flush requests and
disallow having too many pending flush requests allocated. With this
patch, blk_mq_alloc_request_pinned() could do a busy nop (but not a dead
loop) if too many pending requests are allocated and new flush request
is allocated. But this should not be a problem, too many pending flush
requests are very rare case.

I verified this can fix the deadlock caused by too many pending flush
requests.

Dave Hansen 6753471c0c blk-mq: uses page->list incorrectly
'struct page' has two list_head fields: 'lru' and 'list'.  Conveniently,
they are unioned together.  This means that code can use them
interchangably, which gets horribly confusing.

The blk-mq made the logical decision to try to use page->list.  But, that
field was actually introduced just for the slub code.  ->lru is the right
field to use outside of slab/slub.
