Pull libata updates from Tejun Heo:
- Adam added opt-in ATA command priority support.
- There are machines which hide multiple nvme devices behind an ahci
BAR. Dan Williams proposed a solution to force-switch the mode but
deemed too hackishd. People are gonna discuss the proper way to
handle the situation in nvme standard meetings. For now, detect and
warn about the situation.
- Low level driver specific changes.
Christoph Hellwig pipes in about the hidden nvme warning:
"I wish that was the case. We've pretty much agreed that we'll want to
implement it as a virtual PCIe root bridge, similar to Intels other
'innovation' VMD that we work around that way.
But Intel management has apparently decided that they don't want to
spend more cycles on this now that Lenovo has an optional BIOS that
doesn't force this broken mode anymore, and no one outside of Intel
has enough information to implement something like this.
So for now I guess this warning is it, until Intel reconsideres and
spends resources on fixing up the damage their Chipset people caused"

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
This patch is the common base for my WIP series for ranges discards and to
remove discard_zeroes_data in favor of always using REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES,
so it would be good to get it in quickly.

Since commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of
blkdev_issue_zeroout") messages like the following show up:
EXT4-fs (dm-1): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 2368848 at
logical offset 0 with max blocks 1 with error 95
EXT4-fs (dm-1): This should not happen!! Data will be lost
Due to the following fallthrough introduced with
commit 2d253440b5af ("block: Define zoned block device operations"),
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:
switch (bio_op(bio)) {
[...]
case REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME:
if (!bdev_write_same(bio->bi_bdev))
goto not_supported;
case REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT:
case REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET:
if (!bdev_is_zoned(bio->bi_bdev))
goto not_supported;
break;
[...]
}
Thus, although the bio setup as done by __blkdev_issue_write_same() from
commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout")
would succeed, its actual submission would not, resulting in the
EOPNOTSUPP == 95.
Fix this by removing the fallthrough which, due to the lack of an explicit
comment, seems to be unintended anyway.

This adds a new block layer operation to zero out a range of
LBAs. This allows to implement zeroing for devices that don't use
either discard with a predictable zero pattern or WRITE SAME of zeroes.
The prominent example of that is NVMe with the Write Zeroes command,
but in the future, this should also help with improving the way
zeroing discards work. For this operation, suitable entry is exported in
sysfs which indicate the number of maximum bytes allowed in one
write zeroes operation by the device.

If a ZBC device is partitioned and operations are performed on the partition
the zone information is rebased to the partition, however the zone reset
is not mapped from the partition to device as are other operations.
This causes the API (report zones / reset zone) to be unbalanced in this
regard. Checking for the zone reset op code explicitly will balance the
API.

In both legacy and mq path, req count of plug list is computed
before allocating request, so the number can be stale when falling
back to slept allocation, also the new introduced wbt can sleep
too.
This patch deals with the case by checking if plug list becomes
empty, and fixes the KASAN report of 'BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds'
which is introduced by Shaohua's patches of dispatching big request.

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.

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, 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.

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.

blk_get_request is used for BLOCK_PC and similar passthrough requests.
Currently we always need to call blk_rq_set_block_pc or an open coded

If we're queuing REQ_PRIO IO and the task is running at an idle IO
class, then temporarily boost the priority. This prevents livelocks
due to priority inversion, when a low priority task is holding file
system resources while attempting to do IO.
An example of that is shown below. An ioniced idle task is holding
the directory mutex, while a normal priority task is trying to do
a directory lookup.

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.

Request-based DM's blk-mq support (dm-mq) was reported to be 50% slower
than if an underlying null_blk device were used directly. One of the
reasons for this drop in performance is that blk_insert_clone_request()
was calling blk_mq_insert_request() with @async=true. This forced the
use of kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on() to run the blk-mq hw queues
which ushered in ping-ponging between process context (fio in this case)
and kblockd's kworker to submit the cloned request. The ftrace
function_graph tracer showed:
kworker-2013 => fio-12190
fio-12190 => kworker-2013
...
kworker-2013 => fio-12190
fio-12190 => kworker-2013
...
Fixing blk_insert_clone_request()'s blk_mq_insert_request() call to
_not_ use kblockd to submit the cloned requests isn't enough to
eliminate the observed context switches.
In addition to this dm-mq specific blk-core fix, there are 2 DM core
fixes to dm-mq that (when paired with the blk-core fix) completely
eliminate the observed context switching:
1) don't blk_mq_run_hw_queues in blk-mq request completion
Motivated by desire to reduce overhead of dm-mq, punting to kblockd
just increases context switches.
In my testing against a really fast null_blk device there was no benefit
to running blk_mq_run_hw_queues() on completion (and no other blk-mq
driver does this). So hopefully this change doesn't induce the need for
yet another revert like commit 621739b00e16ca2d !
2) use blk_mq_complete_request() in dm_complete_request()
blk_complete_request() doesn't offer the traditional q->mq_ops vs
.request_fn branching pattern that other historic block interfaces
do (e.g. blk_get_request). Using blk_mq_complete_request() for
blk-mq requests is important for performance. It should be noted
that, like blk_complete_request(), blk_mq_complete_request() doesn't
natively handle partial completions -- but the request-based
DM-multipath target does provide the required partial completion
support by dm.c:end_clone_bio() triggering requeueing of the request
via dm-mpath.c:multipath_end_io()'s return of DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE.
dm-mq fix #2 is _much_ more important than #1 for eliminating the
context switches.
Before: cpu : usr=15.10%, sys=59.39%, ctx=7905181, majf=0, minf=475
After: cpu : usr=20.60%, sys=79.35%, ctx=2008, majf=0, minf=472
With these changes multithreaded async read IOPs improved from ~950K
to ~1350K for this dm-mq stacked on null_blk test-case. The raw read
IOPs of the underlying null_blk device for the same workload is ~1950K.

If block device is left runtime suspended during system suspend, resume
hook of the driver typically corrects runtime PM status of the device back
to "active" after it is resumed. However, this is not enough as queue's
runtime PM status is still "suspended". As long as it is in this state
blk_pm_peek_request() returns NULL and thus prevents new requests to be
processed.
Add new function blk_set_runtime_active() that can be used to force the
queue status back to "active" as needed.

When a storage device rejects a WRITE SAME command we will disable write
same functionality for the device and return -EREMOTEIO to the block
layer. -EREMOTEIO will in turn prevent DM from retrying the I/O and/or
failing the path.
Yiwen Jiang discovered a small race where WRITE SAME requests issued
simultaneously would cause -EIO to be returned. This happened because
any requests being prepared after WRITE SAME had been disabled for the
device caused us to return BLKPREP_KILL. The latter caused the block
layer to return -EIO upon completion.
To overcome this we introduce BLKPREP_INVALID which indicates that this
is an invalid request for the device. blk_peek_request() is modified to
return -EREMOTEIO in that case.

Timer context is not very useful for drivers to perform any meaningful abort
action from. So instead of calling the driver from this useless context
defer it to a workqueue as soon as possible.
Note that while a delayed_work item would seem the right thing here I didn't
dare to use it due to the magic in blk_add_timer that pokes deep into timer
internals. But maybe this encourages Tejun to add a sensible API for that to
the workqueue API and we'll all be fine in the end :)
Contains a major update from Keith Bush:
"This patch removes synchronizing the timeout work so that the timer can
start a freeze on its own queue. The timer enters the queue, so timer
context can only start a freeze, but not wait for frozen."

The routines in scsi_pm.c assume that if a runtime-PM callback is
invoked for a SCSI device, it can only mean that the device's driver
has asked the block layer to handle the runtime power management (by
calling blk_pm_runtime_init(), which among other things sets q->dev).
However, this assumption turns out to be wrong for things like the ses
driver. Normally ses devices are not allowed to do runtime PM, but
userspace can override this setting. If this happens, the kernel gets
a NULL pointer dereference when blk_post_runtime_resume() tries to use
the uninitialized q->dev pointer.
This patch fixes the problem by checking q->dev in block layer before
handle runtime PM. Since ses doesn't define any PM callbacks and call
blk_pm_runtime_init(), the crash won't occur.
This fixes Bugzilla #101371.
