2017-05-11block: handle partial completions for special payload requestsChristoph Hellwig
SCSI devices can return short writes on Write Same just like for normal writes, so we need to handle this case for our special payload requests as well.

2017-05-04blk-mq: untangle debugfs and sysfsOmar Sandoval
Originally, I tied debugfs registration/unregistration together with sysfs. There's no reason to do this, and it's getting in the way of letting schedulers define their own debugfs attributes. Instead, tie the debugfs registration to the lifetime of the structures themselves. The saner lifetimes mean we can also get rid of the extra mq directory and move everything one level up. I.e., nvme0n1/mq/hctx0/tags is now just nvme0n1/hctx0/tags. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2017-04-28blk-mq: unify hctx delay_work and run_workJens Axboe
The only difference between ->run_work and ->delay_work, is that the latter is used to defer running a queue. This is done by marking the queue stopped, and scheduling ->delay_work to run sometime in the future. While the queue is stopped, direct runs or runs through ->run_work will not run the queue. If we combine the handlers, then we need to handle two things: 1) If a delayed/stopped run is scheduled, then we should not run the queue before that has been completed. 2) If a queue is delayed/stopped, the handler needs to restart the queue. Normally a run of a queue with the stopped bit set would be a no-op. Case 1 is handled by modifying a currently pending queue run to the deadline set by the caller of blk_mq_delay_queue(). Subsequent attempts to queue a queue run will find the work item already pending, and direct runs will see a stopped queue as before. Case 2 is handled by adding a new bit, BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN, that tells the work handler that it should clear a stopped queue and run the handler.

2017-04-26blk-mq: Unregister debugfs attributes earlierBart Van Assche
We currently call blk_mq_free_queue() from blk_cleanup_queue() before we unregister the debugfs attributes for that queue in blk_release_queue(). This leaves a window open during which accessing most of the mq debugfs attributes would cause a use-after-free. Additionally, the "state" attribute allows running the queue, which we should not do after the queue has entered the "dead" state. Fix both cases by unregistering the debugfs attributes before freeing queue resources starts.

2017-04-07block: trace completion of all bios.NeilBrown
Currently only dm and md/raid5 bios trigger trace_block_bio_complete(). Now that we have bio_chain() and bio_inc_remaining(), it is not possible, in general, for a driver to know when the bio is really complete. Only bio_endio() knows that. So move the trace_block_bio_complete() call to bio_endio(). Now trace_block_bio_complete() pairs with trace_block_bio_queue(). Any bio for which a 'queue' event is traced, will subsequently generate a 'complete' event. There are a few cases where completion tracing is not wanted. 1/ If blk_update_request() has already generated a completion trace event at the 'request' level, there is no point generating one at the bio level too. In this case the bi_sector and bi_size will have changed, so the bio level event would be wrong 2/ If the bio hasn't actually been queued yet, but is being aborted early, then a trace event could be confusing. Some filesystems call bio_endio() but do not want tracing. 3/ The bio_integrity code interposes itself by replacing bi_end_io, then restoring it and calling bio_endio() again. This would produce two identical trace events if left like that. To handle these, we introduce a flag BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION and only produce the trace event when this is set. We address point 1 above by clearing the flag in blk_update_request(). We address point 2 above by only setting the flag when generic_make_request() is called. We address point 3 above by clearing the flag after generating a completion event. When bio_split() is used on a bio, particularly in blk_queue_split(), there is an extra complication. A new bio is split off the front, and may be handle directly without going through generic_make_request(). The old bio, which has been advanced, is passed to generic_make_request(), so it will trigger a trace event a second time. Probably the best result when a split happens is to see a single 'queue' event for the whole bio, then multiple 'complete' events - one for each component. To achieve this was can: - copy the BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION flag to the new bio in bio_split() - avoid generating a 'queue' event if BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION is already set. This way, the split-off bio won't create a queue event, the original won't either even if it re-submitted to generic_make_request(), but both will produce completion events, each for their own range. So if generic_make_request() is called (which generates a QUEUED event), then bi_endio() will create a single COMPLETE event for each range that the bio is split into, unless the driver has explicitly requested it not to.

This patch unifies ioc priority to request mapping across the single/multi queue block layers. I have tested this patch with the null block device driver with the following parameters. null_blk queue_mode=2 irqmode=0 use_per_node_hctx=1 nr_devices=1 I have not seen a performance regression with this patch and I would appreciate any feedback or additional testing.

2017-03-29block: block new I/O just after queue is set as dyingMing Lei
Before commit 780db2071a(blk-mq: decouble blk-mq freezing from generic bypassing), the dying flag is checked before entering queue, and Tejun converts the checking into .mq_freeze_depth, and assumes the counter is increased just after dying flag is set. Unfortunately we doesn't do that in blk_set_queue_dying(). This patch calls blk_freeze_queue_start() in blk_set_queue_dying(), so that we can block new I/O coming once the queue is set as dying. Given blk_set_queue_dying() is always called in remove path of block device, and queue will be cleaned up later, we don't need to worry about undoing the counter.

2017-03-21block: fix stacked driver stats init and freeJens Axboe
If a driver allocates a queue for stacked usage, then it does not currently get stats allocated. This causes the later init of, eg, writeback throttling to blow up. Move the init to the queue allocation instead. Additionally, allow a NULL callback unregistration. This avoids having the caller check for that, fixing another oops on removal of a block device that doesn't have poll stats allocated.

2017-03-21blk-stat: convert to callback-based statistics reportingOmar Sandoval
Currently, statistics are gathered in ~0.13s windows, and users grab the statistics whenever they need them. This is not ideal for both in-tree users: 1. Writeback throttling wants its own dynamically sized window of statistics. Since the blk-stats statistics are reset after every window and the wbt windows don't line up with the blk-stats windows, wbt doesn't see every I/O. 2. Polling currently grabs the statistics on every I/O. Again, depending on how the window lines up, we may miss some I/Os. It's also unnecessary overhead to get the statistics on every I/O; the hybrid polling heuristic would be just as happy with the statistics from the previous full window. This reworks the blk-stats infrastructure to be callback-based: users register a callback that they want called at a given time with all of the statistics from the window during which the callback was active. Users can dynamically bucketize the statistics. wbt and polling both currently use read vs. write, but polling can be extended to further subdivide based on request size. The callbacks are kept on an RCU list, and each callback has percpu stats buffers. There will only be a few users, so the overhead on the I/O completion side is low. The stats flushing is also simplified considerably: since the timer function is responsible for clearing the statistics, we don't have to worry about stale statistics. wbt is a trivial conversion. After the conversion, the windowing problem mentioned above is fixed. For polling, we register an extra callback that caches the previous window's statistics in the struct request_queue for the hybrid polling heuristic to use. Since we no longer have a single stats buffer for the request queue, this also removes the sysfs and debugfs stats entries. To replace those, we add a debugfs entry for the poll statistics.

2017-03-08blk: improve order of bio handling in generic_make_request()NeilBrown
To avoid recursion on the kernel stack when stacked block devices are in use, generic_make_request() will, when called recursively, queue new requests for later handling. They will be handled when the make_request_fn for the current bio completes. If any bios are submitted by a make_request_fn, these will ultimately be handled seqeuntially. If the handling of one of those generates further requests, they will be added to the end of the queue. This strict first-in-first-out behaviour can lead to deadlocks in various ways, normally because a request might need to wait for a previous request to the same device to complete. This can happen when they share a mempool, and can happen due to interdependencies particular to the device. Both md and dm have examples where this happens. These deadlocks can be erradicated by more selective ordering of bios. Specifically by handling them in depth-first order. That is: when the handling of one bio generates one or more further bios, they are handled immediately after the parent, before any siblings of the parent. That way, when generic_make_request() calls make_request_fn for some particular device, we can be certain that all previously submited requests for that device have been completely handled and are not waiting for anything in the queue of requests maintained in generic_make_request(). An easy way to achieve this would be to use a last-in-first-out stack instead of a queue. However this will change the order of consecutive bios submitted by a make_request_fn, which could have unexpected consequences. Instead we take a slightly more complex approach. A fresh queue is created for each call to a make_request_fn. After it completes, any bios for a different device are placed on the front of the main queue, followed by any bios for the same device, followed by all bios that were already on the queue before the make_request_fn was called. This provides the depth-first approach without reordering bios on the same level. This, by itself, it not enough to remove all deadlocks. It just makes it possible for drivers to take the extra step required themselves. To avoid deadlocks, drivers must never risk waiting for a request after submitting one to generic_make_request. This includes never allocing from a mempool twice in the one call to a make_request_fn. A common pattern in drivers is to call bio_split() in a loop, handling the first part and then looping around to possibly split the next part. Instead, a driver that finds it needs to split a bio should queue (with generic_make_request) the second part, handle the first part, and then return. The new code in generic_make_request will ensure the requests to underlying bios are processed first, then the second bio that was split off. If it splits again, the same process happens. In each case one bio will be completely handled before the next one is attempted. With this is place, it should be possible to disable the punt_bios_to_recover() recovery thread for many block devices, and eventually it may be possible to remove it completely.

It can be easily reproduced using Omar's script [1] on kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE. Furthermore the protection provided by this commit is not needed anymore as the problem it was fixing got also fixed by commit 165a5e22fafb "block: Move bdi_unregister() to del_gendisk()".

2017-03-02block: Move bdi_unregister() to del_gendisk()Jan Kara
Commit 6cd18e711dd8 "block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered." moved bdi unregistration (at that time through bdi_destroy()) from blk_release_queue() to blk_cleanup_queue() because it needs to happen before blk_unregister_region() call in del_gendisk() for MD. SCSI though will free up the device number from sd_remove() called through a maze of callbacks from device_del() in __scsi_remove_device() before blk_cleanup_queue() and thus similar races as described in 6cd18e711dd8 can happen for SCSI as well as reported by Omar [1]. Moving bdi_unregister() to del_gendisk() works for MD and fixes the problem for SCSI since del_gendisk() gets called from sd_remove() before freeing the device number. This also makes device_add_disk() (calling bdi_register_owner()) more symmetric with del_gendisk().

2017-02-03block: free merged request in the callerJens Axboe
If we end up doing a request-to-request merge when we have completed a bio-to-request merge, we free the request from deep down in that path. For blk-mq-sched, the merge path has to hold the appropriate lock, but we don't need it for freeing the request. And in fact holding the lock is problematic, since we are now calling the mq sched put_rq_private() hook with the lock held. Other call paths do not hold this lock. Fix this inconsistency by ensuring that the caller frees a merged request. Then we can do it outside of the lock, making it both more efficient and fixing the blk-mq-sched problem of invoking parts of the scheduler with an unknown lock state.

Currently only request_queue holds the reference but in the following patch we add other users referencing backing_dev_info.

2017-02-02block: Use pointer to backing_dev_info from request_queueJan Kara
We will want to have struct backing_dev_info allocated separately from struct request_queue. As the first step add pointer to backing_dev_info to request_queue and convert all users touching it.

2017-02-01block: queue lock must be acquired when iterating over rlsTahsin Erdogan
blk_set_queue_dying() does not acquire queue lock before it calls blk_queue_for_each_rl(). This allows a racing blkg_destroy() to remove blkg->q_node from the linked list and have blk_queue_for_each_rl() loop infitely over the removed blkg->q_node list node.

2017-01-31block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ spaceChristoph Hellwig
Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough operations. Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

2017-01-27block: split scsi_request out of struct requestChristoph Hellwig
And require all drivers that want to support BLOCK_PC to allocate it as the first thing of their private data. To support this the legacy IDE and BSG code is switched to set cmd_size on their queues to let the block layer allocate the additional space.

2017-01-27block: simplify blk_init_allocated_queueChristoph Hellwig
Return an errno value instead of the passed in queue so that the callers don't have to keep track of two queues, and move the assignment of the request_fn and lock to the caller as passing them as argument doesn't simplify anything. While we're at it also remove two pointless NULL assignments, given that the request structure is zeroed on allocation.

2017-01-27block: fix elevator init checkChristoph Hellwig
We can't initalize the elevator fields for flushes as flush share space in struct request with the elevator data. But currently we can't communicate that a request is a flush through blk_get_request as we can only pass READ or WRITE, and the low-level code looks at the possible NULL bio to check for a flush. Fix this by allowing to pass any block op and flags, and by checking for the flush flags in __get_request.

2017-01-17blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO schedulersJens Axboe
This adds a set of hooks that intercepts the blk-mq path of allocating/inserting/issuing/completing requests, allowing us to develop a scheduler within that framework. We reuse the existing elevator scheduler API on the registration side, but augment that with the scheduler flagging support for the blk-mq interfce, and with a separate set of ops hooks for MQ devices. We split driver and scheduler tags, so we can run the scheduling independently of device queue depth.

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" * 'for-4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata: ahci: warn about remapped NVMe devices ahci-remap.h: add ahci remapping definitions nvme: move NVMe class code to pci_ids.h pata: imx: support controller modes up to PIO4 pata: imx: add support of setting timings for PIO modes pata: imx: set controller PIO mode with .set_piomode callback pata: imx: sort headers out ata: set ncq_prio_enabled iff device has support ata: ATA Command Priority Disabled By Default ata: Enabling ATA Command Priorities block: Add iocontext priority to request ahci: qoriq: added ls1046a platform support
