2018-04-10blk-mq: make sure that correct hctx->next_cpu is setMing Lei
From commit 20e4d81393196 (blk-mq: simplify queue mapping & schedule with each possisble CPU), one hctx can be mapped from all offline CPUs, then hctx->next_cpu can be set as wrong. This patch fixes this issue by making hctx->next_cpu pointing to the first CPU in hctx->cpumask if all CPUs in hctx->cpumask are offline.

2018-04-10blk-mq: order getting budget and driver tagMing Lei
This patch orders getting budget and driver tag by making sure to acquire driver tag after budget is got, this way can help to avoid the following race: 1) before dispatch request from scheduler queue, get one budget first, then dequeue a request, call it request A. 2) in another IO path for dispatching request B which is from hctx->dispatch, driver tag is got, then try to get budget in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), unfortunately the budget is held by request A. 3) meantime blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() is called for dispatching request A, and try to get driver tag first, unfortunately no driver tag is available because the driver tag is held by request B 4) both two IO pathes can't move on, and IO stall is caused. This issue can be observed when running dbench on USB storage. This patch fixes this issue by always getting budget before getting driver tag.

2018-02-28block: clear ctx pending bit under ctx lockOmar Sandoval
When we insert a request, we set the software queue pending bit while holding the software queue lock. However, we clear it outside of the lock, so it's possible that a concurrent insert could reset the bit after we clear it but before we empty the request list. Afterwards, the bit would still be set but the software queue wouldn't have any requests in it, leading us to do a spurious run in the future. This is mostly a benign/theoretical issue, but it makes the following change easier to justify.

2018-01-30blk-mq: introduce BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCEMing Lei
This status is returned from driver to block layer if device related resource is unavailable, but driver can guarantee that IO dispatch will be triggered in future when the resource is available. Convert some drivers to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. Also, if driver returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE and SCHED_RESTART is set, rerun queue after a delay (BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE) to avoid IO stalls. BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE is 3 ms because both scsi-mq and nvmefc are using that magic value. If a driver can make sure there is in-flight IO, it is safe to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE because: 1) If all in-flight IOs complete before examining SCHED_RESTART in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), SCHED_RESTART must be cleared, so queue is run immediately in this case by blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(); 2) if there is any in-flight IO after/when examining SCHED_RESTART in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(): - if SCHED_RESTART isn't set, queue is run immediately as handled in 1) - otherwise, this request will be dispatched after any in-flight IO is completed via blk_mq_sched_restart() 3) if SCHED_RESTART is set concurently in context because of BLK_STS_RESOURCE, blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() will cover the above two cases and make sure IO hang can be avoided. One invariant is that queue will be rerun if SCHED_RESTART is set.

2018-01-17blk-mq: improve DM's blk-mq IO merging via blk_insert_cloned_request feedbackMing Lei
blk_insert_cloned_request() is called in the fast path of a dm-rq driver (e.g. blk-mq request-based DM mpath). blk_insert_cloned_request() uses blk_mq_request_bypass_insert() to directly append the request to the blk-mq hctx->dispatch_list of the underlying queue. 1) This way isn't efficient enough because the hctx spinlock is always used. 2) With blk_insert_cloned_request(), we completely bypass underlying queue's elevator and depend on the upper-level dm-rq driver's elevator to schedule IO. But dm-rq currently can't get the underlying queue's dispatch feedback at all. Without knowing whether a request was issued or not (e.g. due to underlying queue being busy) the dm-rq elevator will not be able to provide effective IO merging (as a side-effect of dm-rq currently blindly destaging a request from its elevator only to requeue it after a delay, which kills any opportunity for merging). This obviously causes very bad sequential IO performance. Fix this by updating blk_insert_cloned_request() to use blk_mq_request_direct_issue(). blk_mq_request_direct_issue() allows a request to be issued directly to the underlying queue and returns the dispatch feedback (blk_status_t). If blk_mq_request_direct_issue() returns BLK_SYS_RESOURCE the dm-rq driver will now use DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE to _not_ destage the request. Whereby preserving the opportunity to merge IO. With this, request-based DM's blk-mq sequential IO performance is vastly improved (as much as 3X in mpath/virtio-scsi testing).

2018-01-17blk-mq: make sure hctx->next_cpu is set correctlyMing Lei
When hctx->next_cpu is set from possible online CPUs, there is one race in which hctx->next_cpu may be set as >= nr_cpu_ids, and finally break workqueue. The race can be triggered in the following two sitations: 1) when one CPU is becoming DEAD, blk_mq_hctx_notify_dead() is called to dispatch requests from the DEAD cpu context, but at that time, this DEAD CPU has been cleared from 'cpu_online_mask', so all CPUs in hctx->cpumask may become offline, and cause hctx->next_cpu set a bad value. 2) blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() is called from CPU B, and found the queue should be run on the other CPU A, then CPU A may become offline at the same time and all CPUs in hctx->cpumask become offline. This patch deals with this issue by re-selecting next CPU, and making sure it is set correctly.

2018-01-09blk-mq: make blk_abort_request() trigger timeout pathTejun Heo
With issue/complete and timeout paths now using the generation number and state based synchronization, blk_abort_request() is the only one which depends on REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE for arbitrating completion. There's no reason for blk_abort_request() to be a completely separate path. This patch makes blk_abort_request() piggyback on the timeout path instead of trying to terminate the request directly. This removes the last dependency on REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE in blk-mq. Note that this makes blk_abort_request() asynchronous - it initiates abortion but the actual termination will happen after a short while, even when the caller owns the request. AFAICS, SCSI and ATA should be fine with that and I think mtip32xx and dasd should be safe but not completely sure. It'd be great if people who know the drivers take a look. v2: - Add comment explaining the lack of synchronization around ->deadline update as requested by Bart.

2018-01-09blk-mq: replace timeout synchronization with a RCU and generation based schemeTejun Heo
Currently, blk-mq timeout path synchronizes against the usual issue/completion path using a complex scheme involving atomic bitflags, REQ_ATOM_*, memory barriers and subtle memory coherence rules. Unfortunately, it contains quite a few holes. There's a complex dancing around REQ_ATOM_STARTED and REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE between issue/completion and timeout paths; however, they don't have a synchronization point across request recycle instances and it isn't clear what the barriers add. blk_mq_check_expired() can easily read STARTED from N-2'th iteration, deadline from N-1'th, blk_mark_rq_complete() against Nth instance. In fact, it's pretty easy to make blk_mq_check_expired() terminate a later instance of a request. If we induce 5 sec delay before time_after_eq() test in blk_mq_check_expired(), shorten the timeout to 2s, and issue back-to-back large IOs, blk-mq starts timing out requests spuriously pretty quickly. Nothing actually timed out. It just made the call on a recycle instance of a request and then terminated a later instance long after the original instance finished. The scenario isn't theoretical either. This patch replaces the broken synchronization mechanism with a RCU and generation number based one. 1. Each request has a u64 generation + state value, which can be updated only by the request owner. Whenever a request becomes in-flight, the generation number gets bumped up too. This provides the basis for the timeout path to distinguish different recycle instances of the request. Also, marking a request in-flight and setting its deadline are protected with a seqcount so that the timeout path can fetch both values coherently. 2. The timeout path fetches the generation, state and deadline. If the verdict is timeout, it records the generation into a dedicated request abortion field and does RCU wait. 3. The completion path is also protected by RCU (from the previous patch) and checks whether the current generation number and state match the abortion field. If so, it skips completion. 4. The timeout path, after RCU wait, scans requests again and terminates the ones whose generation and state still match the ones requested for abortion. By now, the timeout path knows that either the generation number and state changed if it lost the race or the completion will yield to it and can safely timeout the request. While it's more lines of code, it's conceptually simpler, doesn't depend on direct use of subtle memory ordering or coherence, and hopefully doesn't terminate the wrong instance. While this change makes REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE synchronization unnecessary between issue/complete and timeout paths, REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE isn't removed yet as it's still used in other places. Future patches will move all state tracking to the new mechanism and remove all bitops in the hot paths. Note that this patch adds a comment explaining a race condition in BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER path. The race has always been there and this patch doesn't change it. It's just documenting the existing race. v2: - Fixed BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER handling as pointed out by Jianchao. - s/request->gstate_seqc/request->gstate_seq/ as suggested by Peter. - READ_ONCE() added in blk_mq_rq_update_state() as suggested by Peter. v3: - Fixed possible extended seqcount / u64_stats_sync read looping spotted by Peter. - MQ_RQ_IDLE was incorrectly being set in complete_request instead of free_request. Fixed. v4: - Rebased on top of hctx_lock() refactoring patch. - Added comment explaining the use of hctx_lock() in completion path. v5: - Added comments requested by Bart. - Note the addition of BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER race condition in the commit message.

2017-11-10blk-mq: improve tag waiting setup for non-shared tagsJens Axboe
If we run out of driver tags, we currently treat shared and non-shared tags the same - both cases hook into the tag waitqueue. This is a bit more costly than it needs to be on unshared tags, since we have to both grab the hctx lock, and the waitqueue lock (and disable interrupts). For the non-shared case, we can simply mark the queue as needing a restart. Split blk_mq_dispatch_wait_add() to account for both cases, and rename it to blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() to better reflect what it does now. Without this patch, shared and non-shared performance is about the same with 4 fio thread hammering on a single null_blk device (~410K, at 75% sys). With the patch, the shared case is the same, but the non-shared tags case runs at 431K at 71% sys. Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2017-11-10blk-mq: only run the hardware queue if IO is pendingJens Axboe
Currently we are inconsistent in when we decide to run the queue. Using blk_mq_run_hw_queues() we check if the hctx has pending IO before running it, but we don't do that from the individual queue run function, blk_mq_run_hw_queue(). This results in a lot of extra and pointless queue runs, potentially, on flush requests and (much worse) on tag starvation situations. This is observable just looking at top output, with lots of kworkers active. For the !async runs, it just adds to the CPU overhead of blk-mq.
