Bart Van Assche 332ebbf7f9 block: Document what queue type each function is intended for
Some functions in block/blk-core.c must only be used on blk-sq queues
while others are safe to use against any queue type. Document which
functions are intended for blk-sq queues and issue a warning if the
blk-sq API is misused. This does not only help block driver authors
but will also make it easier to remove the blk-sq code once that code
is declared obsolete.

Bart Van Assche c3a148d20a blk-mq: Initialize .rq_flags in blk_mq_rq_ctx_init()
Initialization of blk-mq requests is a bit weird: blk_mq_rq_ctx_init()
is called after a value has been assigned to .rq_flags and .rq_flags
is initialized in __blk_mq_finish_request(). Initialize .rq_flags in
blk_mq_rq_ctx_init() instead of relying on __blk_mq_finish_request().
Moving the initialization of .rq_flags is fine because all changes
and tests of .rq_flags occur between blk_get_request() and finishing
a request.

Goldwyn Rodrigues 03a07c92a9 block: return on congested block device
A new bio operation flag REQ_NOWAIT is introduced to identify bio's
orignating from iocb with IOCB_NOWAIT. This flag indicates
to return immediately if a request cannot be made instead
of retrying.

Stacked devices such as md (the ones with make_request_fn hooks)
currently are not supported because it may block for housekeeping.
For example, an md can have a part of the device suspended.
For this reason, only request based devices are supported.
In the future, this feature will be expanded to stacked devices
by teaching them how to handle the REQ_NOWAIT flags.

Ming Lei 1d9e9bc6b5 blk-mq: don't stop queue for quiescing
Queue can be started by other blk-mq APIs and can be used in
different cases, this limits uses of blk_mq_quiesce_queue()
if it is based on stopping queue, and make its usage very
difficult, especially users have to use the stop queue APIs
carefully for avoiding to break blk_mq_quiesce_queue().

We have applied the QUIESCED flag for draining and blocking
dispatch, so it isn't necessary to stop queue any more.

After stopping queue is removed, blk_mq_quiesce_queue() can
be used safely and easily, then users won't worry about queue
restarting during quiescing at all.

Ming Lei f4560ffe8c blk-mq: use QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED to quiesce queue
It is required that no dispatch can happen any more once
blk_mq_quiesce_queue() returns, and we don't have such requirement
on APIs of stopping queue.

But blk_mq_quiesce_queue() still may not block/drain dispatch in the
the case of BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN, so use the new introduced flag of
QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED and evaluate it inside RCU read-side critical
sections for fixing this issue.

Also blk_mq_quiesce_queue() is implemented via stopping queue, which
limits its uses, and easy to cause race, because any queue restart in
other paths may break blk_mq_quiesce_queue(). With the introduced
flag of QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED, we don't need to depend on stopping queue
for quiescing any more.

NeilBrown 8cb0defbaa drbd: use bio_clone_fast() instead of bio_clone()
drbd does not modify the bi_io_vec of the cloned bio,
so there is no need to clone that part.  So bio_clone_fast()
is the better choice.
For bio_clone_fast() we need to specify a bio_set.
We could use fs_bio_set, which bio_clone() uses, or
drbd_md_io_bio_set, which drbd uses for metadata, but it is
generally best to avoid sharing bio_sets unless you can
be certain that there are no interdependencies.

So create a new bio_set, drbd_io_bio_set, and use bio_clone_fast().

Also remove a "XXX cannot fail ???" comment because it definitely
cannot fail - bio_clone_fast() doesn't fail if the GFP flags allow for
sleeping.

NeilBrown f856dc36b6 rbd: use bio_clone_fast() instead of bio_clone()
bio_clone() makes a copy of the bi_io_vec, but rbd never changes that,
so there is no need for a copy.
bio_clone_fast() can be used instead, which avoids making the copy.

This requires that we provide a bio_set.  bio_clone() uses fs_bio_set,
but it isn't, in general, safe to use the same bio_set at different
levels of the stack, as that can lead to deadlocks.  As filesystems
use fs_bio_set, block devices shouldn't.

As rbd never stacks, it is safe to have a single global bio_set for
all rbd devices to use.  So allocate that when the module is
initialised, and use it with bio_clone_fast().

NeilBrown a8821f3f32 block: Improvements to bounce-buffer handling
Since commit 23688bf4f8 ("block: ensure to split after potentially
bouncing a bio") blk_queue_bounce() is called *before*
blk_queue_split().
This means that:
 1/ the comments blk_queue_split() about bounce buffers are
    irrelevant, and
 2/ a very large bio (more than BIO_MAX_PAGES) will no longer be
    split before it arrives at blk_queue_bounce(), leading to the
    possibility that bio_clone_bioset() will fail and a NULL
    will be dereferenced.

Separately, blk_queue_bounce() shouldn't use fs_bio_set as the bio
being copied could be from the same set, and this could lead to a
deadlock.

So:
 - allocate 2 private biosets for blk_queue_bounce, one for
   splitting enormous bios and one for cloning bios.
 - add code to split a bio that exceeds BIO_MAX_PAGES.
 - Fix up the comments in blk_queue_split()

NeilBrown 93b27e7290 blk: use non-rescuing bioset for q->bio_split.
A rescuing bioset is only useful if there might be bios from
that same bioset on the bio_list_on_stack queue at a time
when bio_alloc_bioset() is called.  This never applies to
q->bio_split.

Allocations from q->bio_split are only ever made from
blk_queue_split() which is only ever called early in each of
various make_request_fn()s.  The original bio (call this A)
is then passed to generic_make_request() and is placed on
the bio_list_on_stack queue, and the bio that was allocated
from q->bio_split (B) is processed.

The processing of this may cause other bios to be passed to
generic_make_request() or may even cause the bio B itself to
be passed, possible after some prefix has been split off
(using some other bioset).

generic_make_request() now guarantees that all of these bios
(B and dependants) will be fully processed before the tail
of the original bio A gets handled.  None of these early bios
can possible trigger an allocation from the original
q->bio_split as they are either too small to require
splitting or (more likely) are destined for a different queue.

The next time that the original q->bio_split might be used
by this thread is when A is processed again, as it might
still be too big to handle directly.  By this time there
cannot be any other bios allocated from q->bio_split in the
generic_make_request() queue.  So no rescuing will ever be
needed.

NeilBrown 47e0fb461f blk: make the bioset rescue_workqueue optional.
This patch converts bioset_create() to not create a workqueue by
default, so alloctions will never trigger punt_bios_to_rescuer().  It
also introduces a new flag BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER which tells
bioset_create() to preserve the old behavior.

All callers of bioset_create() that are inside block device drivers,
are given the BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag.

biosets used by filesystems or other top-level users do not
need rescuing as the bio can never be queued behind other
bios.  This includes fs_bio_set, blkdev_dio_pool,
btrfs_bioset, xfs_ioend_bioset, and one allocated by
target_core_iblock.c.

biosets used by md/raid do not need rescuing as
their usage was recently audited and revised to never
risk deadlock.

It is hoped that most, if not all, of the remaining biosets
can end up being the non-rescued version.

NeilBrown 011067b056 blk: replace bioset_create_nobvec() with a flags arg to bioset_create()
"flags" arguments are often seen as good API design as they allow
easy extensibility.
bioset_create_nobvec() is implemented internally as a variation in
flags passed to __bioset_create().

To support future extension, make the internal structure part of the
API.
i.e. add a 'flags' argument to bioset_create() and discard
bioset_create_nobvec().

Note that the bio_split allocations in drivers/md/raid* do not need
the bvec mempool - they should have used bioset_create_nobvec().

NeilBrown af67c31fba blk: remove bio_set arg from blk_queue_split()
blk_queue_split() is always called with the last arg being q->bio_split,
where 'q' is the first arg.

Also blk_queue_split() sometimes uses the passed-in 'bs' and sometimes uses
q->bio_split.

This is inconsistent and unnecessary.  Remove the last arg and always use
q->bio_split inside blk_queue_split()

Christoph Hellwig 5bbf4e5a8e blk-mq-sched: unify request prepare methods
This patch makes sure we always allocate requests in the core blk-mq
code and use a common prepare_request method to initialize them for
both mq I/O schedulers.  For Kyber and additional limit_depth method
is added that is called before allocating the request.

Also because none of the intializations can really fail the new method
does not return an error - instead the bfq finish method is hardened
to deal with the no-IOC case.

Last but not least this removes the abuse of RQF_QUEUE by the blk-mq
scheduling code as RQF_ELFPRIV is all that is needed now.
