2014-07-01blk-mq: decouble blk-mq freezing from generic bypassingTejun Heo
blk_mq freezing is entangled with generic bypassing which bypasses blkcg and io scheduler and lets IO requests fall through the block layer to the drivers in FIFO order. This allows forward progress on IOs with the advanced features disabled so that those features can be configured or altered without worrying about stalling IO which may lead to deadlock through memory allocation. However, generic bypassing doesn't quite fit blk-mq. blk-mq currently doesn't make use of blkcg or ioscheds and it maps bypssing to freezing, which blocks request processing and drains all the in-flight ones. This causes problems as bypassing assumes that request processing is online. blk-mq works around this by conditionally allowing request processing for the problem case - during queue initialization. Another weirdity is that except for during queue cleanup, bypassing started on the generic side prevents blk-mq from processing new requests but doesn't drain the in-flight ones. This shouldn't break anything but again highlights that something isn't quite right here. The root cause is conflating blk-mq freezing and generic bypassing which are two different mechanisms. The only intersecting purpose that they serve is during queue cleanup. Let's properly separate blk-mq freezing from generic bypassing and simply use it where necessary. * request_queue->mq_freeze_depth is added and blk_mq_[un]freeze_queue() now operate on this counter instead of ->bypass_depth. The replacement for QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS isn't added but the counter is tested directly. This will be further updated by later changes. * blk_mq_drain_queue() is dropped and "__" prefix is dropped from blk_mq_freeze_queue(). Queue cleanup path now calls blk_mq_freeze_queue() directly. * blk_queue_enter()'s fast path condition is simplified to simply check @q->mq_freeze_depth. Previously, the condition was !blk_queue_dying(q) && (!blk_queue_bypass(q) || !blk_queue_init_done(q)) mq_freeze_depth is incremented right after dying is set and blk_queue_init_done() exception isn't necessary as blk-mq doesn't start frozen, which only leaves the blk_queue_bypass() test which can be replaced by @q->mq_freeze_depth test. This change simplifies the code and reduces confusion in the area. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Nicholas A.

2014-07-01block, blk-mq: draining can't be skipped even if bypass_depth was non-zeroTejun Heo
Currently, both blk_queue_bypass_start() and blk_mq_freeze_queue() skip queue draining if bypass_depth was already above zero. The assumption is that the one which bumped the bypass_depth should have performed draining already; however, there's nothing which prevents a new instance of bypassing/freezing from starting before the previous one finishes draining. The current code may allow the later bypassing/freezing instances to complete while there still are in-flight requests which haven't finished draining. Fix it by draining regardless of bypass_depth. We still skip draining from blk_queue_bypass_start() while the queue is initializing to avoid introducing excessive delays during boot. INIT_DONE setting is moved above the initial blk_queue_bypass_end() so that bypassing attempts can't slip inbetween.

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe: "A smaller collection of fixes for the block core that would be nice to have in -rc2. This pull request contains: - Fixes for races in the wait/wakeup logic used in blk-mq from Alexander. No issues have been observed, but it is definitely a bit flakey currently. Alternatively, we may drop the cyclic wakeups going forward, but that needs more testing. - Some cleanups from Christoph. - Fix for an oops in null_blk if queue_mode=1 and softirq completions are used. From me. - A fix for a regression caused by the chunk size setting. It inadvertently used max_hw_sectors instead of max_sectors, which is incorrect, and causes hangs on btrfs multi-disk setups (where hw sectors apparently isn't set). From me. - Removal of WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT in the kblockd creation. This was a recent addition as well, but it actually breaks blk-mq which relies on strict scheduling.

2014-06-11block: remove WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT from kblockdMatias Bjørling
blk-mq issues async requests through kblockd. To issue a work request on a specific CPU, kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on is used. However, the specific CPU choice may not be honored, if the power_efficient option for workqueues is set. blk-mq requires that we have strict per-cpu scheduling, so it wont work properly if kblockd is marked POWER_EFFICIENT and power_efficient is set. Remove the kblockd WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT flag to prevent this behavior. This essentially reverts part of commit 695588f9454b, which added the WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT marker to kblockd.

2014-06-06block: add blk_rq_set_block_pc()Jens Axboe
With the optimizations around not clearing the full request at alloc time, we are leaving some of the needed init for REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC up to the user allocating the request. Add a blk_rq_set_block_pc() that sets the command type to REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC, and properly initializes the members associated with this type of request. Update callers to use this function instead of manipulating rq->cmd_type directly. Includes fixes from Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> for my half-assed attempt.

2014-05-20blk-mq: allow changing of queue depth through sysfsJens Axboe
For request_fn based devices, the block layer exports a 'nr_requests' file through sysfs to allow adjusting of queue depth on the fly. Currently this returns -EINVAL for blk-mq, since it's not wired up. Wire this up for blk-mq, so that it now also always dynamic adjustments of the allowed queue depth for any given block device managed by blk-mq. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

This was used in the olden days, back when onions were proper yellow. Basically it mapped to the current buffer to be transferred.

The patch states that it is safe to reuse queuelist at completion time, since it is no longer used. However, that is not true if a device is using block enabled tagging. If that is the case, then the queuelist is reused to keep track of busy tags. If a device also ended up using softirq completions, we'd reuse ->queuelist for the IPI handling while block tagging was still using it. Boom. Fix this by adding a new ipi_list list head, and share the memory used with the request hash table. The hash table is never used after the request is moved to the dispatch list, which happens long before any potential completion of the request. Add a new request bit for this, so we don't have cases that check rq->hash while it could potentially have been reused for the IPI completion. Reported-by: Martin K.

trace_block_rq_complete does not take into account that request can be partially completed, so we can get the following incorrect output of blkparser: C R 232 + 240 [0] C R 240 + 232 [0] C R 248 + 224 [0] C R 256 + 216 [0] but should be: C R 232 + 8 [0] C R 240 + 8 [0] C R 248 + 8 [0] C R 256 + 8 [0] Also, the whole output summary statistics of completed requests and final throughput will be incorrect.

2014-02-10blk-mq: rework flush sequencing logicChristoph Hellwig
Witch to using a preallocated flush_rq for blk-mq similar to what's done with the old request path. This allows us to set up the request properly with a tag from the actually allowed range and ->rq_disk as needed by some drivers. To make life easier we also switch to dynamic allocation of ->flush_rq for the old path. This effectively reverts most of "blk-mq: fix for flush deadlock" and "blk-mq: Don't reserve a tag for flush request" Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2013-11-08block: Enable sysfs nomerge control for I/O requests in the plug listAlireza Haghdoost
This patch enables the sysfs to control I/O request merge functionality in the plug list. While this control has been implemented for the request queue, it was dismissed in the plug list. Therefore, block layer merges requests together (or attempt to merge) even if the merge capability was disable using sysfs nomerge parameter value 2. This limitation is directly affects functionality of io_submit() system call. The system call enables user to submit a bunch of IO requests from user space using struct iocb **ios input argument. However, the unconditioned merging functionality in the plug list potentially merges these requests together down the road. Therefore, there is no way to distinguish between an application sending bunch of sequential IOs and an application sending one big IO. Ultimately, all requests generated by the former app merge within the plug list together and looks similar to the second app. While the merging functionality is a desirable feature to improve the performance of IO subsystem for some applications, it is not useful for other application like ours at all.

A timer is started for each request put on the device's queue (see blk_start_request->blk_add_timer). If the request does not complete before the timer expires, the timer handler (blk_rq_timed_out_timer) will mark the request complete atomically: static inline int blk_mark_rq_complete(struct request *rq) { return test_and_set_bit(REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE, &rq->atomic_flags); } and then call blk_rq_timed_out. The latter function will call scsi_times_out, which will return one of BLK_EH_HANDLED, BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER or BLK_EH_NOT_HANDLED. If BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER is returned, blk_clear_rq_complete is called, and blk_add_timer is again called to simply wait longer for the request to complete. Now, if the request happens to complete while this is going on, what happens? Given that we know the completion handler will bail if it finds the REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE bit set, we need to focus on the completion handler running after that bit is cleared. So, from the above paragraph, after the call to blk_clear_rq_complete. If the completion sets REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE before the BUG_ON in blk_add_timer, we go boom there (I haven't seen this in the cores). Next, if we get the completion before the call to list_add_tail, then the timer will eventually fire for an old req, which may either be freed or reallocated (there is evidence that this might be the case). Finally, if the completion comes in *after* the addition to the timeout list, I think it's harmless. The request will be removed from the timeout list, req_atom_complete will be set, and all will be well. This will only actually explain the coredumps *IF* the request structure was freed, reallocated *and* queued before the error handler thread had a chance to process it. That is possible, but it may make sense to keep digging for another race. I think that if this is what was happening, we would see other instances of this problem showing up as null pointer or garbage pointer dereferences, for example when the request structure was not re-used. It looks like we actually do run into that situation in other reports. This patch moves the BUG_ON(test_bit(REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE, &req->atomic_flags)); from blk_add_timer to the only caller that could trip over it (blk_start_request). It then inverts the calls to blk_clear_rq_complete and blk_add_timer in blk_rq_timed_out to address the race. I've boot tested this patch, but nothing more.

2013-10-28blk-mq: fix for flush deadlockChristoph Hellwig
The flush state machine takes in a struct request, which then is submitted multiple times to the underling driver. The old block code requeses the same request for each of those, so it does not have an issue with tapping into the request pool. The new one on the other hand allocates a new request for each of the actualy steps of the flush sequence. If have already allocated all of the tags for IO, we will fail allocating the flush request. Set aside a reserved request just for flushes. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2013-10-25blk-mq: new multi-queue block IO queueing mechanismJens Axboe
Linux currently has two models for block devices: - The classic request_fn based approach, where drivers use struct request units for IO. The block layer provides various helper functionalities to let drivers share code, things like tag management, timeout handling, queueing, etc. - The "stacked" approach, where a driver squeezes in between the block layer and IO submitter. Since this bypasses the IO stack, driver generally have to manage everything themselves. With drivers being written for new high IOPS devices, the classic request_fn based driver doesn't work well enough. The design dates back to when both SMP and high IOPS was rare. It has problems with scaling to bigger machines, and runs into scaling issues even on smaller machines when you have IOPS in the hundreds of thousands per device. The stacked approach is then most often selected as the model for the driver. But this means that everybody has to re-invent everything, and along with that we get all the problems again that the shared approach solved. This commit introduces blk-mq, block multi queue support. The design is centered around per-cpu queues for queueing IO, which then funnel down into x number of hardware submission queues. We might have a 1:1 mapping between the two, or it might be an N:M mapping. That all depends on what the hardware supports. blk-mq provides various helper functions, which include: - Scalable support for request tagging. Most devices need to be able to uniquely identify a request both in the driver and to the hardware. The tagging uses per-cpu caches for freed tags, to enable cache hot reuse. - Timeout handling without tracking request on a per-device basis. Basically the driver should be able to get a notification, if a request happens to fail. - Optional support for non 1:1 mappings between issue and submission queues. blk-mq can redirect IO completions to the desired location. - Support for per-request payloads. Drivers almost always need to associate a request structure with some driver private command structure. Drivers can tell blk-mq this at init time, and then any request handed to the driver will have the required size of memory associated with it. - Support for merging of IO, and plugging. The stacked model gets neither of these. Even for high IOPS devices, merging sequential IO reduces per-command overhead and thus increases bandwidth. For now, this is provided as a potential 3rd queueing model, with the hope being that, as it matures, it can replace both the classic and stacked model. That would get us back to having just 1 real model for block devices, leaving the stacked approach to dm/md devices (as it was originally intended).

2013-10-25block: remove request ref_countChristoph Hellwig
This reference count has been around since before git history, but the only place where it's used is in blk_execute_rq, and ther it is entirely useless as it is incremented before submitting the request and decremented in the end_io handler before waking up the submitter thread.

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo: "Surprisingly, Lai and I didn't break too many things implementing custom pools and stuff last time around and there aren't any follow-up changes necessary at this point. The only change in this pull request is Viresh's patches to make some per-cpu workqueues to behave as unbound workqueues dependent on a boot param whose default can be configured via a config option. This leads to higher processing overhead / lower bandwidth as more work items are bounced across CPUs; however, it can lead to noticeable powersave in certain configurations - ~10% w/ idlish constant workload on a big.LITTLE configuration according to Viresh. This is because per-cpu workqueues interfere with how the scheduler perceives whether or not each CPU is idle by forcing pinned tasks on them, which makes the scheduler's power-aware scheduling decisions less effective. Its effectiveness is likely less pronounced on homogenous configurations and this type of optimization can probably be made automatic; however, the changes are pretty minimal and the affected workqueues are clearly marked, so it's an easy gain for some configurations for the time being with pretty unintrusive changes." * 'for-3.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: fbcon: queue work on power efficient wq block: queue work on power efficient wq PHYLIB: queue work on system_power_efficient_wq workqueue: Add system wide power_efficient workqueues workqueues: Introduce new flag WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT for power oriented workqueues
