BFQ can deem a bfq_queue as soft real-time only if the queue
- periodically becomes completely idle, i.e., empty and with
no still-outstanding I/O request;
- after becoming idle, gets new I/O only after a special reference
time soft_rt_next_start.
In this respect, after commit "block, bfq: consider also past I/O in
soft real-time detection", the value of soft_rt_next_start can never
decrease. This causes a problem with the following special updating
case for soft_rt_next_start: to prevent queues that are not completely
idle to be wrongly detected as soft real-time (when they become
non-empty again), soft_rt_next_start is temporarily set to infinity
for empty queues with still outstanding I/O requests. But, if such an
update is actually performed, then, because of the above commit,
soft_rt_next_start will be stuck at infinity forever, and the queue
will have no more chance to be considered soft real-time.
On slow systems, this problem does cause actual soft real-time
applications to be occasionally not detected as such.
This commit addresses this issue by eliminating the pushing of
soft_rt_next_start to infinity, and by changing the way non-empty
queues are prevented from being wrongly detected as soft
real-time. Simply, a queue that becomes non-empty again can now be
detected as soft real-time only if it has no outstanding I/O request.

The maximum possible duration of the weight-raising period for
interactive applications is limited to 13 seconds, as this is the time
needed to load the largest application that we considered when tuning
weight raising. Unfortunately, in such an evaluation, we did not
consider the case of very slow virtual machines.
For example, on a QEMU/KVM virtual machine
- running in a slow PC;
- with a virtual disk stacked on a slow low-end 5400rpm HDD;
- serving a heavy I/O workload, such as the sequential reading of
several files;
mplayer takes 23 seconds to start, if constantly weight-raised.
To address this issue, this commit conservatively sets the upper limit
for weight-raising duration to 25 seconds.

BFQ computes the duration of weight raising for interactive
applications automatically, using some reference parameters. In
particular, BFQ uses the best durations (see comments in the code for
how these durations have been assessed) for two classes of systems:
slow and fast ones. Examples of slow systems are old phones or systems
using micro HDDs. Fast systems are all the remaining ones. Using these
parameters, BFQ computes the actual duration of the weight raising,
for the system at hand, as a function of the relative speed of the
system w.r.t. the speed of a reference system, belonging to the same
class of systems as the system at hand.
This slow vs fast differentiation proved to be useful in the past, but
happens to have little meaning with current hardware. Even worse, it
does cause problems in virtual systems, where the speed of the system
can vary frequently, and so widely to just confuse the class-detection
mechanism, and, as we have verified experimentally, to cause BFQ to
compute non-sensical weight-raising durations.
This commit addresses this issue by removing the slow class and the
class-detection mechanism.

Currently, kyber is very unfriendly with merging. kyber depends
on ctx rq_list to do merging, however, most of time, it will not
leave any requests in ctx rq_list. This is because even if tokens
of one domain is used up, kyber will try to dispatch requests
from other domain and flush the rq_list there.
To improve this, we setup kyber_ctx_queue (kcq) which is similar
with ctx, but it has rq_lists for different domain and build same
mapping between kcq and khd as the ctx & hctx. Then we could merge,
insert and dispatch for different domains separately. At the same
time, only flush the rq_list of kcq when get domain token successfully.
Then if one domain token is used up, the requests could be left in
the rq_list of that domain and maybe merged with following io.

This patch simplifies the timeout handling by relying on the request
reference counting to ensure the iterator is operating on an inflight
and truly timed out request. Since the reference counting prevents the
tag from being reallocated, the block layer no longer needs to prevent
drivers from completing their requests while the timeout handler is
operating on it: a driver completing a request is allowed to proceed to
the next state without additional syncronization with the block layer.
This also removes any need for generation sequence numbers since the
request lifetime is prevented from being reallocated as a new sequence
while timeout handling is operating on it.
To enables this a refcount is added to struct request so that request
users can be sure they're operating on the same request without it
changing while they're processing it. The request's tag won't be
released for reuse until both the timeout handler and the completion
are done with it.

When the allocation process is scheduled back and the mapped hw queue is
changed, fake one extra wake up on previous queue for compensating wake
up miss, so other allocations on the previous queue won't be starved.
This patch fixes one request allocation hang issue, which can be
triggered easily in case of very low nr_request.
The race is as follows:
1) 2 hw queues, nr_requests are 2, and wake_batch is one
2) there are 3 waiters on hw queue 0
3) two in-flight requests in hw queue 0 are completed, and only two
waiters of 3 are waken up because of wake_batch, but both the two
waiters can be scheduled to another CPU and cause to switch to hw
queue 1
4) then the 3rd waiter will wait for ever, since no in-flight request
is in hw queue 0 any more.
5) this patch fixes it by the fake wakeup when waiter is scheduled to
another hw queue

When invoked for an I/O request rq, the prepare_request hook of bfq
increments reference counters in the destination bfq_queue for rq. In
this respect, after this hook has been invoked, rq may still be
transformed into a request with no icq attached, i.e., for bfq, a
request not associated with any bfq_queue. No further hook is invoked
to signal this tranformation to bfq (in general, to the destination
elevator for rq). This leads bfq into an inconsistent state, because
bfq has no chance to correctly lower these counters back. This
inconsistency may in its turn cause incorrect scheduling and hangs. It
certainly causes memory leaks, by making it impossible for bfq to free
the involved bfq_queue.
On the bright side, no transformation can still happen for rq after rq
has been inserted into bfq, or merged with another, already inserted,
request. Exploiting this fact, this commit addresses the above issue
by delaying the preparation of an I/O request to when the request is
inserted or merged.
This change also gives a performance bonus: a lock-contention point
gets removed. To prepare a request, bfq needs to hold its scheduler
lock. After postponing request preparation to insertion or merging, no
lock needs to be grabbed any longer in the prepare_request hook, while
the lock already taken to perform insertion or merging is used to
preparare the request as well.

Commit 9c40cef2b7 ("sched: Move blk_schedule_flush_plug() out of
__schedule()") moved the blk_schedule_flush_plug() call out of the
interrupt/preempt disabled region in the scheduler. This allows to replace
local_irq_save/restore(flags) by local_irq_disable/enable() in
blk_flush_plug_list().
But it makes more sense to disable interrupts explicitly when the request
queue is locked end reenable them when the request to is unlocked. This
shortens the interrupt disabled section which is important when the plug
list contains requests for more than one queue. The comment which claims
that disabling interrupts around the loop is misleading as the called
functions can reenable interrupts unconditionally anyway and obfuscates the
scope badly:
local_irq_save(flags);
spin_lock(q->queue_lock);
...
queue_unplugged(q...);
scsi_request_fn();
spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock);
-------------------^^^ ????
spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock);
spin_unlock(q->queue_lock);
local_irq_restore(flags);
Aside of that the detached interrupt disabling is a constant pain for
PREEMPT_RT as it requires patching and special casing when RT is enabled
while with the spin_*_irq() variants this happens automatically.

bounce_copy_vec() disables interrupts around kmap_atomic(). This is a
leftover from the old kmap_atomic() implementation which relied on fixed
mapping slots, so the caller had to make sure that the same slot could not
be reused from an interrupting context.
kmap_atomic() was changed to dynamic slots long ago and commit 1ec9c5ddc1
("include/linux/highmem.h: remove the second argument of k[un]map_atomic()")
removed the slot assignements, but the callers were not checked for now
redundant interrupt disabling.

blk_account_io_start() right after we've allocated the request. blk-mq
only considers requests started requests as inflight, but this is
inconsistent with the legacy definition and the intention in the code.
This removes the started condition and instead counts all allocated
requests.

rq->gstate and rq->aborted_gstate both are zero before rqs are
allocated. If we have a small timeout, when the timer fires,
there could be rqs that are never allocated, and also there could
be rq that has been allocated but not initialized and started. At
the moment, the rq->gstate and rq->aborted_gstate both are 0, thus
the blk_mq_terminate_expired will identify the rq is timed out and
invoke .timeout early.
For scsi, this will cause scsi_times_out to be invoked before the
scsi_cmnd is not initialized, scsi_cmnd->device is still NULL at
the moment, then we will get crash.

When blk_queue_enter() waits for a queue to unfreeze, or unset the
PREEMPT_ONLY flag, do not allow it to be interrupted by a signal.
The PREEMPT_ONLY flag was introduced later in commit 3a0a529971
("block, scsi: Make SCSI quiesce and resume work reliably"). Note the SCSI
device is resumed asynchronously, i.e. after un-freezing userspace tasks.
So that commit exposed the bug as a regression in v4.15. A mysterious
SIGBUS (or -EIO) sometimes happened during the time the device was being
resumed. Most frequently, there was no kernel log message, and we saw Xorg
or Xwayland killed by SIGBUS.[1]
[1] E.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1553979
Without this fix, I get an IO error in this test:
# dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null iflag=direct & \
while killall -SIGUSR1 dd; do sleep 0.1; done & \
echo mem > /sys/power/state ; \
sleep 5; killall dd # stop after 5 seconds
The interruptible wait was added to blk_queue_enter in
commit 3ef28e83ab ("block: generic request_queue reference counting").
Before then, the interruptible wait was only in blk-mq, but I don't think
it could ever have been correct.

This reverts commit 127276c6ce.
When all CPUs of one hw queue become offline, there still may have IOs
not completed from this hctx. But blk_mq_hw_queue_mapped() is called in
blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter(), which is used for iterating request in timeout
handler, timeout event will be missed on the inactive hctx, then request may
never be completed.
Also the replementation of blk_mq_hw_queue_mapped() doesn't match the helper's
name any more, and it should have been named as blk_mq_hw_queue_active().
Even other callers need further verification about this reimplemenation.
So revert this patch now, and we can improve hw queue activate/inactivate event
after adequent researching and test.

Secondly, set->nr_hw_queues can't be bigger than nr_cpu_ids, and now we map

So queue mapping has became static and fixed just like percpu variable, and
we don't need to handle queue remapping any more.

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.

Request abortion is performed by overriding deadline to now and

code was using mod_timer(timeout, 0) which can't guarantee that the
timer runs afterwards. Let's schedule the underlying work item

If a storage device handled by BFQ happens to be slower than 7.5 KB/s
for a certain amount of time (in the order of a second), then the
estimated peak rate of the device, maintained in BFQ, becomes equal to
0. The reason is the limited precision with which the rate is
represented (details on the range of representable values in the
comments introduced by this commit). This leads to a division-by-zero
error where the estimated peak rate is used as divisor. Such a type of
failure has been reported in [1].
This commit addresses this issue by:
1. Lower-bounding the estimated peak rate to 1
2. Adding and improving comments on the range of rates representable

scsi_device_quiesce() uses synchronize_rcu() to guarantee that the
effect of blk_set_preempt_only() will be visible for percpu_ref_tryget()
calls that occur after the queue unfreeze by using the approach
explained in https://lwn.net/Articles/573497/. The rcu read lock and
unlock calls in blk_queue_enter() form a pair with the synchronize_rcu()
call in scsi_device_quiesce(). Both scsi_device_quiesce() and
blk_queue_enter() must either use regular RCU or RCU-sched.
Since neither the RCU-protected code in blk_queue_enter() nor
blk_queue_usage_counter_release() sleeps, regular RCU protection
is sufficient. Note: scsi_device_quiesce() does not have to be
modified since it already uses synchronize_rcu().

We've triggered a WARNING in blk_throtl_bio() when throttling writeback
io, which complains blkg->refcnt is already 0 when calling blkg_get(),
and then kernel crashes with invalid page request.
After investigating this issue, we've found it is caused by a race
between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir(), which is described
below:
writeback kworker cgroup_rmdir
cgroup_destroy_locked
kill_css
css_killed_ref_fn
css_killed_work_fn
offline_css
blkcg_css_offline
blkcg_bio_issue_check
rcu_read_lock
blkg_lookup
spin_trylock(q->queue_lock)
blkg_destroy
spin_unlock(q->queue_lock)
blk_throtl_bio
spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock)
...
spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock)
rcu_read_unlock
Since rcu can only prevent blkg from releasing when it is being used,
the blkg->refcnt can be decreased to 0 during blkg_destroy() and schedule
blkg release.
Then trying to blkg_get() in blk_throtl_bio() will complains the WARNING.
And then the corresponding blkg_put() will schedule blkg release again,
which result in double free.
This race is introduced by commit ae11889636 ("blkcg: consolidate blkg
creation in blkcg_bio_issue_check()"). Before this commit, it will
lookup first and then try to lookup/create again with queue_lock. Since
revive this logic is a bit drastic, so fix it by only offlining pd during
blkcg_css_offline(), and move the rest destruction (especially
blkg_put()) into blkcg_css_free(), which should be the right way as
discussed.

The current BSG design tries to shoe-horn the transport-specific
passthrough commands into the overall framework for SCSI passthrough
requests. This has a couple problems:
- each passthrough queue has to set the QUEUE_FLAG_SCSI_PASSTHROUGH flag
despite not dealing with SCSI commands at all. Because of that these
queues could also incorrectly accept SCSI commands from in-kernel
users or through the legacy SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl.
- the real SCSI bsg queues also incorrectly accept bsg requests of the
BSG_SUB_PROTOCOL_SCSI_TRANSPORT type
- the bsg transport code is almost unredable because it tries to reuse
different SCSI concepts for its own purpose.
This patch instead adds a new bsg_ops structure to handle the two cases
differently, and thus solves all of the above problems. Another side
effect is that the bsg-lib queues also don't need to embedd a
struct scsi_request anymore.

In case of a failed write request (all retries failed) and when using
libata, the SCSI error handler calls scsi_finish_command(). In the
case of blk-mq this means that scsi_mq_done() does not get called,
that blk_mq_complete_request() does not get called and also that the
mq-deadline .completed_request() method is not called. This results in
the target zone of the failed write request being left in a locked
state, preventing that any new write requests are issued to the same
zone.
Fix this by replacing the .completed_request() method with the
.finish_request() method as this method is always called whether or
not a request completes successfully. Since the .finish_request()
method is only called by the blk-mq core if a .prepare_request()
method exists, add a dummy .prepare_request() method.

Neither driver accesses any of the removed data structures between its

The changes in this patch are as follows:
- Move the .queue_lock initialization from blk_init_queue_node() into
blk_alloc_queue_node().
- Only override the .queue_lock pointer for legacy queues because it
is not useful for blk-mq queues to override this pointer.
- For all all block drivers that initialize .queue_lock explicitly,
change the blk_alloc_queue() call in the driver into a
blk_alloc_queue_node() call and remove the explicit .queue_lock
initialization. Additionally, initialize the spin lock that will
be used as queue lock earlier if necessary.

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.

When two blkdev_open() calls for a partition race with device removal
and recreation, we can hit BUG_ON(!bd_may_claim(bdev, whole, holder)) in
blkdev_open(). The race can happen as follows:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
del_gendisk()
bdev_unhash_inode(part1);
blkdev_open(part1, O_EXCL) blkdev_open(part1, O_EXCL)
bdev = bd_acquire() bdev = bd_acquire()
blkdev_get(bdev)
bd_start_claiming(bdev)
- finds old inode 'whole'
bd_prepare_to_claim() -> 0
bdev_unhash_inode(whole);
<device removed>
<new device under same
number created>
blkdev_get(bdev);
bd_start_claiming(bdev)
- finds new inode 'whole'
bd_prepare_to_claim()
- this also succeeds as we have
different 'whole' here...
- bad things happen now as we
have two exclusive openers of
the same bdev
The problem here is that block device opens can see various intermediate
states while gendisk is shutting down and then being recreated.
We fix the problem by introducing new lookup_sem in gendisk that
synchronizes gendisk deletion with get_gendisk() and furthermore by
making sure that get_gendisk() does not return gendisk that is being (or
has been) deleted. This makes sure that once we ever manage to look up
newly created bdev inode, we are also guaranteed that following
get_gendisk() will either return failure (and we fail open) or it
returns gendisk for the new device and following bdget_disk() will
return new bdev inode (i.e., blkdev_open() follows the path as if it is
completely run after new device is created).

Arguably the function naming here is misleading as put_disk() is *not*
the counterpart of get_disk() but let's fix that in the follow up
commit since that will be more intrusive.

When requeuing request, the domain token should have been freed
before re-inserting the request to io scheduler. Otherwise, the
assigned domain token will be leaked, and IO hang can be caused.

__blk_mq_requeue_request() covers two cases:
- one is that the requeued request is added to hctx->dispatch, such as
blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list()
- another case is that the request is requeued to io scheduler, such as
blk_mq_requeue_request().
We should call io sched's .requeue_request callback only for the 2nd
case.

This removes the dependency on interrupts to wake up task. Set task
state as TASK_RUNNING, if need_resched() returns true,
while polling for IO completion.
Earlier, polling task used to sleep, relying on interrupt to wake it up.
This made some IO take very long when interrupt-coalescing is enabled in
NVMe.

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*

for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Commit 'a6a252e64914 ("blk-mq-sched: decide how to handle flush rq via
RQF_FLUSH_SEQ")' makes all non-flush re-prepared requests for a device
be re-inserted into the active I/O scheduler for that device. As a
consequence, I/O schedulers may get the same request inserted again,
even several times, without a finish_request invoked on that request
before each re-insertion.
This fact is the cause of the failure reported in [1]. For an I/O
scheduler, every re-insertion of the same re-prepared request is
equivalent to the insertion of a new request. For schedulers like
mq-deadline or kyber, this fact causes no harm. In contrast, it
confuses a stateful scheduler like BFQ, which keeps state for an I/O
request, until the finish_request hook is invoked on the request. In
particular, BFQ may get stuck, waiting forever for the number of
request dispatches, of the same request, to be balanced by an equal
number of request completions (while there will be one completion for
that request). In this state, BFQ may refuse to serve I/O requests
from other bfq_queues. The hang reported in [1] then follows.
However, the above re-prepared requests undergo a requeue, thus the
requeue_request hook of the active elevator is invoked for these
requests, if set. This commit then addresses the above issue by
properly implementing the hook requeue_request in BFQ.

The classic error injection mechanism, should_fail_request() does not
support use cases where more information is required (from the entire
struct bio, for example).
To that end, this patch introduces should_fail_bio(), which calls
should_fail_request() under the hood but provides a convenient
place for kprobes to hook into if they require the entire struct bio.
This patch also replaces some existing calls to should_fail_request()
with should_fail_bio() with no degradation in performance.

Mikulas reported a workload that saw bad performance, and figured
out what it was due to various other types of requests being
accounted as reads. Flush requests, for instance. Due to the
high latency of those, we heavily throttle the writes to keep
the latencies in balance. But they really should be accounted
as writes.
Fix this by checking the exact type of the request. If it's a
read, account as a read, if it's a write or a flush, account
as a write. Any other request we disregard. Previously everything
would have been mistakenly accounted as reads.

print_req_error: I/O error, dev nvme0n1, sector 847167488
Decoding the assembly, the request claims to have 0xffff segments,
while nvme counts two. This turns out to be because we don't check
for a data carrying request on the mq scheduler path, and since
blk_phys_contig_segment() returns true for a non-data request,
we decrement the initial segment count of 0 and end up with
0xffff in the unsigned short.
There are a few issues here:
1) We should initialize the segment count for a discard to 1.
2) The discard merging is currently using the data limits for
segments and sectors.
Fix this up by having attempt_merge() correctly identify the
request, and by initializing the segment count correctly
for discards.
This can only be triggered with mq-deadline on discard capable
devices right now, which isn't a common configuration.

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.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

In mixed read/write workload on SSD, write latency is much lower than
read. But now we only track and record read latency and then use it as
threshold base for both read and write io latency accounting. As a
result, write io latency will always be considered as good and
bad_bio_cnt is much smaller than 20% of bio_cnt. That is to mean, the
tg to be checked will be treated as idle most of the time and still let
others dispatch more ios, even it is truly running under low limit and
wants its low limit to be guaranteed, which is not we expected in fact.
So track read and write request individually, which can bring more
precise latency control for low limit idle detection.

To maximise responsiveness, BFQ raises the weight, and performs device
idling, for bfq_queues associated with processes deemed as
interactive. In particular, weight raising has a maximum duration,
equal to the time needed to start a large application. If a
weight-raised process goes on doing I/O beyond this maximum duration,
it loses weight-raising.
This mechanism is evidently vulnerable to the following false
positives: I/O-bound applications that will go on doing I/O for much
longer than the duration of weight-raising. These applications have
basically no benefit from being weight-raised at the beginning of
their I/O. On the opposite end, while being weight-raised, these
applications
a) unjustly steal throughput to applications that may truly need
low latency;
b) make BFQ uselessly perform device idling; device idling results
in loss of device throughput with most flash-based storage, and may
increase latencies when used purposelessly.
This commit adds a countermeasure to reduce both the above
problems. To introduce this countermeasure, we provide the following
extra piece of information (full details in the comments added by this
commit). During the start-up of the large application used as a
reference to set the duration of weight-raising, involved processes
transfer at most ~110K sectors each. Accordingly, a process initially
deemed as interactive has no right to be weight-raised any longer,
once transferred 110K sectors or more.
Basing on this consideration, this commit early-ends weight-raising
for a bfq_queue if the latter happens to have received an amount of
service at least equal to 110K sectors (actually, a little bit more,
to keep a safety margin). I/O-bound applications that reach a high
throughput, such as file copy, get to this threshold much before the
allowed weight-raising period finishes. Thus this early ending of
weight-raising reduces the amount of time during which these
applications cause the problems described above.

Asynchronous I/O can easily starve synchronous I/O (both sync reads
and sync writes), by consuming all request tags. Similarly, storms of
synchronous writes, such as those that sync(2) may trigger, can starve
synchronous reads. In their turn, these two problems may also cause
BFQ to loose control on latency for interactive and soft real-time
applications. For example, on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5S SSD, LibreOffice
Writer takes 0.6 seconds to start if the device is idle, but it takes
more than 45 seconds (!) if there are sequential writes in the
background.
This commit addresses this issue by limiting the maximum percentage of
tags that asynchronous I/O requests and synchronous write requests can
consume. In particular, this commit grants a higher threshold to
synchronous writes, to prevent the latter from being starved by
asynchronous I/O.
According to the above test, LibreOffice Writer now starts in about
1.2 seconds on average, regardless of the background workload, and
apart from some rare outlier. To check this improvement, run, e.g.,
sudo ./comm_startup_lat.sh bfq 5 5 seq 10 "lowriter --terminate_after_init"
for the comm_startup_lat benchmark in the S suite [1].

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).

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.

Since I can remember DM has forced the block layer to allow the
allocation and initialization of the request_queue to be distinct
operations. Reason for this is block/genhd.c:add_disk() has requires
that the request_queue (and associated bdi) be tied to the gendisk
before add_disk() is called -- because add_disk() also deals with
exposing the request_queue via blk_register_queue().
DM's dynamic creation of arbitrary device types (and associated
request_queue types) requires the DM device's gendisk be available so
that DM table loads can establish a master/slave relationship with
subordinate devices that are referenced by loaded DM tables -- using
bd_link_disk_holder(). But until these DM tables, and their associated
subordinate devices, are known DM cannot know what type of request_queue
it needs -- nor what its queue_limits should be.
This chicken and egg scenario has created all manner of problems for DM
and, at times, the block layer.
Summary of changes:
- Add device_add_disk_no_queue_reg() and add_disk_no_queue_reg() variant
that drivers may use to add a disk without also calling
blk_register_queue(). Driver must call blk_register_queue() once its
request_queue is fully initialized.
- Return early from blk_unregister_queue() if QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED
is not set. It won't be set if driver used add_disk_no_queue_reg()
but driver encounters an error and must del_gendisk() before calling
blk_register_queue().
- Export blk_register_queue().
These changes allow DM to use add_disk_no_queue_reg() to anchor its
gendisk as the "master" for master/slave relationships DM must establish
with subordinate devices referenced in DM tables that get loaded. Once
all "slave" devices for a DM device are known its request_queue can be
properly initialized and then advertised via sysfs -- important
improvement being that no request_queue resource initialization
performed by blk_register_queue() is missed for DM devices anymore.

The original commit e9a823fb34 (block: fix warning when I/O elevator
is changed as request_queue is being removed) is pretty conflated.
"conflated" because the resource being protected by q->sysfs_lock isn't
the queue_flags (it is the 'queue' kobj).
q->sysfs_lock serializes __elevator_change() (via elv_iosched_store)
from racing with blk_unregister_queue():
1) By holding q->sysfs_lock first, __elevator_change() can complete
before a racing blk_unregister_queue().
2) Conversely, __elevator_change() is testing for QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED
in case elv_iosched_store() loses the race with blk_unregister_queue(),
it needs a way to know the 'queue' kobj isn't there.
Expand the scope of blk_unregister_queue()'s q->sysfs_lock use so it is
held until after the 'queue' kobj is removed.
To do so blk_mq_unregister_dev() must not also take q->sysfs_lock. So
rename __blk_mq_unregister_dev() to blk_mq_unregister_dev().
Also, blk_unregister_queue() should use q->queue_lock to protect against
any concurrent writes to q->queue_flags -- even though chances are the
queue is being cleaned up so no concurrent writes are likely.

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.

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

For each pair [device for which bfq is selected as I/O scheduler,
group in blkio/io], bfq maintains a corresponding bfq group. Each such
bfq group contains a set of async queues, with each async queue
created on demand, i.e., when some I/O request arrives for it. On
creation, an async queue gets an extra reference, to make sure that
the queue is not freed as long as its bfq group exists. Accordingly,
to allow the queue to be freed after the group exited, this extra
reference must released on group exit.
The above holds also for a bfq root group, i.e., for the bfq group
corresponding to the root blkio/io root for a given device. Yet, by
mistake, the references to the existing async queues of a root group
are not released when the latter exits. This causes a memory leak when
the instance of bfq for a given device exits. In a similar vein,
bfqg_stats_xfer_dead is not executed for a root group.
This commit fixes bfq_pd_offline so that the latter executes the above
missing operations for a root group too.

BFQ privileges the I/O of soft real-time applications, such as video
players, to guarantee to these application a high bandwidth and a low
latency. In this respect, it is not easy to correctly detect when an
application is soft real-time. A particularly nasty false positive is
that of an I/O-bound application that occasionally happens to meet all
requirements to be deemed as soft real-time. After being detected as
soft real-time, such an application monopolizes the device. Fortunately,
BFQ will realize soon that the application is actually not soft
real-time and suspend every privilege. Yet, the application may happen
again to be wrongly detected as soft real-time, and so on.
As highlighted by our tests, this problem causes BFQ to occasionally
fail to guarantee a high responsiveness, in the presence of heavy
background I/O workloads. The reason is that the background workload
happens to be detected as soft real-time, more or less frequently,
during the execution of the interactive task under test. To give an
idea, because of this problem, Libreoffice Writer occasionally takes 8
seconds, instead of 3, to start up, if there are sequential reads and
writes in the background, on a Kingston SSDNow V300.
This commit addresses this issue by leveraging the following facts.
The reason why some applications are detected as soft real-time despite
all BFQ checks to avoid false positives, is simply that, during high
CPU or storage-device load, I/O-bound applications may happen to do
I/O slowly enough to meet all soft real-time requirements, and pass
all BFQ extra checks. Yet, this happens only for limited time periods:
slow-speed time intervals are usually interspersed between other time
intervals during which these applications do I/O at a very high speed.
To exploit these facts, this commit introduces a little change, in the
detection of soft real-time behavior, to systematically consider also
the recent past: the higher the speed was in the recent past, the
later next I/O should arrive for the application to be considered as
soft real-time. At the beginning of a slow-speed interval, the minimum
arrival time allowed for the next I/O usually happens to still be so
high, to fall *after* the end of the slow-speed period itself. As a
consequence, the application does not risk to be deemed as soft
real-time during the slow-speed interval. Then, during the next
high-speed interval, the application cannot, evidently, be deemed as
soft real-time (exactly because of its speed), and so on.
This extra filtering proved to be rather effective: in the above test,
the frequency of false positives became so low that the start-up time
was 3 seconds in all iterations (apart from occasional outliers,
caused by page-cache-management issues, which are out of the scope of
this commit, and cannot be solved by an I/O scheduler).

When two or more processes do I/O in a way that the their requests are
sequential in respect to one another, BFQ merges the bfq_queues associated
with the processes. This way the overall I/O pattern becomes sequential,
and thus there is a boost in througput.
These cooperating processes usually start or restart to do I/O shortly
after each other. So, in order to avoid merging non-cooperating processes,
BFQ ensures that none of these queues has been in weight raising for too
long.
In this respect, from commit "block, bfq-sq, bfq-mq: let a queue be merged
only shortly after being created", BFQ checks whether any queue (and not
only weight-raised ones) is doing I/O continuously from too long to be
merged.
This new additional check makes the first one useless: a queue doing
I/O from long enough, if being weight-raised, is also a queue in
weight raising for too long to be merged. Accordingly, this commit
removes the first check.

In BFQ and CFQ, two processes are said to be cooperating if they do
I/O in such a way that the union of their I/O requests yields a
sequential I/O pattern. To get such a sequential I/O pattern out of
the non-sequential pattern of each cooperating process, BFQ and CFQ
merge the queues associated with these processes. In more detail,
cooperating processes, and thus their associated queues, usually
start, or restart, to do I/O shortly after each other. This is the
case, e.g., for the I/O threads of KVM/QEMU and of the dump
utility. Basing on this assumption, this commit allows a bfq_queue to
be merged only during a short time interval (100ms) after it starts,
or re-starts, to do I/O. This filtering provides two important
benefits.
First, it greatly reduces the probability that two non-cooperating
processes have their queues merged by mistake, if they just happen to
do I/O close to each other for a short time interval. These spurious
merges cause loss of service guarantees. A low-weight bfq_queue may
unjustly get more than its expected share of the throughput: if such a
low-weight queue is merged with a high-weight queue, then the I/O for
the low-weight queue is served as if the queue had a high weight. This
may damage other high-weight queues unexpectedly. For instance,
because of this issue, lxterminal occasionally took 7.5 seconds to
start, instead of 6.5 seconds, when some sequential readers and
writers did I/O in the background on a FUJITSU MHX2300BT HDD. The
reason is that the bfq_queues associated with some of the readers or
the writers were merged with the high-weight queues of some processes
that had to do some urgent but little I/O. The readers then exploited
the inherited high weight for all or most of their I/O, during the
start-up of terminal. The filtering introduced by this commit
eliminated any outlier caused by spurious queue merges in our start-up
time tests.
This filtering also provides a little boost of the throughput
sustainable by BFQ: 3-4%, depending on the CPU. The reason is that,
once a bfq_queue cannot be merged any longer, this commit makes BFQ
stop updating the data needed to handle merging for the queue.

A just-created bfq_queue will certainly be deemed as interactive on
the arrival of its first I/O request, if the low_latency flag is
set. Yet, if the queue is merged with another queue on the arrival of
its first I/O request, it will not have the chance to be flagged as
interactive. Nevertheless, if the queue is then split soon enough, it
has to be flagged as interactive after the split.
To handle this early-merge scenario correctly, BFQ saves the state of
the queue, on the merge, as if the latter had already been deemed
interactive. So, if the queue is split soon, it will get
weight-raised, because the previous state of the queue is resumed on
the split.
Unfortunately, in the act of saving the state of the newly-created
queue, BFQ doesn't check whether the low_latency flag is set, and this
causes early-merged queues to be then weight-raised, on queue splits,
even if low_latency is off. This commit addresses this problem by
adding the missing check.

(rq_pos_tree).
Unfortunately, the update of the rq_pos_tree was incomplete, because

If two processes do I/O close to each other, i.e., are cooperating
processes in BFQ (and CFQ'S) nomenclature, then BFQ merges their
associated bfq_queues, so as to get sequential I/O from the union of
the I/O requests of the processes, and thus reach a higher
throughput. A merged queue is then split if its I/O stops being
sequential. In this respect, BFQ deems the I/O of a bfq_queue as
(mostly) sequential only if less than 4 I/O requests are random, out
of the last 32 requests inserted into the queue.
Unfortunately, extensive testing (with the interleaved_io benchmark of
the S suite [1], and with real applications spawning cooperating
processes) has clearly shown that, with such a low threshold, only a
rather low I/O throughput may be reached when several cooperating
processes do I/O. In particular, the outcome of each test run was
bimodal: if queue merging occurred and was stable during the test,
then the throughput was close to the peak rate of the storage device,
otherwise the throughput was arbitrarily low (usually around 1/10 of
the peak rate with a rotational device). The probability to get the
unlucky outcomes grew with the number of cooperating processes: it was
already significant with 5 processes, and close to one with 7 or more
processes.
The cause of the low throughput in the unlucky runs was that the
merged queues containing the I/O of these cooperating processes were
soon split, because they contained more random I/O requests than those
tolerated by the 4/32 threshold, but
- that I/O would have however allowed the storage device to reach
peak throughput or almost peak throughput;
- in contrast, the I/O of these processes, if served individually
(from separate queues) yielded a rather low throughput.
So we repeated our tests with increasing values of the threshold,
until we found the minimum value (19) for which we obtained maximum
throughput, reliably, with at least up to 9 cooperating
processes. Then we checked that the use of that higher threshold value
did not cause any regression for any other benchmark in the suite [1].
This commit raises the threshold to such a higher value.

Components relying only on the request_queue structure for accessing
block devices (e.g. I/O schedulers) have a limited knowledged of the
device characteristics. In particular, the device capacity cannot be
easily discovered, which for a zoned block device also result in the
inability to easily know the number of zones of the device (the zone
size is indicated by the chunk_sectors field of the queue limits).
Introduce the nr_zones field to the request_queue structure to simplify
access to this information. Also, add the bitmap seq_zone_bitmap which
indicates which zones of the device are sequential zones (write
preferred or write required) and the bitmap seq_zones_wlock which
indicates if a zone is write locked, that is, if a write request
targeting a zone was dispatched to the device. These fields are
initialized by the low level block device driver (sd.c for ZBC/ZAC
disks). They are not initialized by stacking drivers (device mappers)
handling zoned block devices (e.g. dm-linear).
Using this, I/O schedulers can introduce zone write locking to control
request dispatching to a zoned block device and avoid write request
reordering by limiting to at most a single write request per zone
outside of the scheduler at any time.

Now we track legacy requests with .q_usage_counter in commit 055f6e18e0
("block: Make q_usage_counter also track legacy requests"), but that
commit never runs and drains legacy queue before waiting for this counter
becoming zero, then IO hang is caused in the test of pulling disk during IO.
This patch fixes the issue by draining requests before waiting for
q_usage_counter becoming zero, both Mauricio and chenxiang reported this
issue, and observed that it can be fixed by this patch.

Even with a number of waitqueues, we can get into a situation where we
are heavily contended on the waitqueue lock. I got a report on spc1
where we're spending seconds doing this. Arguably the use case is nasty,
I reproduce it with one device and 1000 threads banging on the device.
But that doesn't mean we shouldn't be handling it better.
What ends up happening is that a thread will fail to get a tag, add
itself to the waitqueue, and subsequently get woken up when a tag is
freed - only to find itself going back to sleep on the waitqueue.
Instead of waking all threads, use an exclusive wait and wake up our
sbitmap batch count instead. This seems to work well for me (massive
improvement for this use case), and it survives basic testing. But I
haven't fully verified it yet.
An additional improvement is running the queue and checking for a new
tag BEFORE needing to add ourselves to the waitqueue.

If a bio is throttled and split after throttling, the bio could be
resubmited and enters the throttling again. This will cause part of the
bio to be charged multiple times. If the cgroup has an IO limit, the
double charge will significantly harm the performance. The bio split
becomes quite common after arbitrary bio size change.
To fix this, we always set the BIO_THROTTLED flag if a bio is throttled.
If the bio is cloned/split, we copy the flag to new bio too to avoid a
double charge. However, cloned bio could be directed to a new disk,
keeping the flag be a problem. The observation is we always set new disk
for the bio in this case, so we can clear the flag in bio_set_dev().
This issue exists for a long time, arbitrary bio size change just makes
it worse, so this should go into stable at least since v4.2.

Commit a8821f3f3("block: Improvements to bounce-buffer handling") tries
to make sure that the bio to .make_request_fn won't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES,
but ignores that passthrough I/O can use blk_queue_bounce() too.
Especially, passthrough IO may not be sector-aligned, and the check
of 'sectors < bio_sectors(*bio_orig)' inside __blk_queue_bounce() may
become true even though the max bvec number doesn't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES,
then cause the bio splitted, and the original passthrough bio is submited
to generic_make_request().
This patch fixes this issue by checking if the bio is passthrough IO,
and use bio_kmalloc() to allocate the cloned passthrough bio.

Commit 8cf4666020 ("kyber: fix hang on domain token wait queue") fixed
a hang caused by leaving wait entries on the domain token wait queue
after the __sbitmap_queue_get() retry succeeded, making that wait entry
a "dud" which won't in turn wake more entries up. However, we can also
get a dud entry if kyber_get_domain_token() fails once but is then
called again and succeeds. This can happen if the hardware queue is
rerun for some other reason, or, more likely, kyber_dispatch_request()
tries the same domain twice.
The fix is to remove our entry from the wait queue whenever we
successfully get a token. The only complication is that we might be on
one of many wait queues in the struct sbitmap_queue, but that's easily
fixed by remembering which wait queue we were put on.
While we're here, only initialize the wait queue entry once instead of
on every wait, and use spin_lock_irq() instead of spin_lock_irqsave(),
since this is always called from process context with irqs enabled.

BFQ currently creates, and updates, its own instance of the whole
set of blkio statistics that cfq creates. Yet, from the comments
of Tejun Heo in [1], it turned out that most of these statistics
are meant/useful only for debugging. This commit makes BFQ create
the latter, debugging statistics only if the option
CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP is set.
By doing so, this commit also enables BFQ to enjoy a high perfomance
boost. The reason is that, if CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP is not set, then
BFQ has to update far fewer statistics, and, in particular, not the
heaviest to update. To give an idea of the benefits, if
CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP is not set, then, on an Intel i7-4850HQ, and
with 8 threads doing random I/O in parallel on null_blk (configured
with 0 latency), the throughput of BFQ grows from 310 to 400 KIOPS
(+30%). We have measured similar or even much higher boosts with other
CPUs: e.g., +45% with an ARM CortexTM-A53 Octa-core. Our results have
been obtained and can be reproduced very easily with the script in [1].

bfq invokes various blkg_*stats_* functions to update the statistics
contained in the special files blkio.bfq.* in the blkio controller
groups, i.e., the I/O accounting related to the proportional-share
policy provided by bfq. The execution of these functions takes a
considerable percentage, about 40%, of the total per-request execution
time of bfq (i.e., of the sum of the execution time of all the bfq
functions that have to be executed to process an I/O request from its
creation to its destruction). This reduces the request-processing
rate sustainable by bfq noticeably, even on a multicore CPU. In fact,
the bfq functions that invoke blkg_*stats_* functions cannot be
executed in parallel with the rest of the code of bfq, because both
are executed under the same same per-device scheduler lock.
To reduce this slowdown, this commit moves, wherever possible, the
invocation of these functions (more precisely, of the bfq functions
that invoke blkg_*stats_* functions) outside the critical sections
protected by the scheduler lock.
With this change, and with all blkio.bfq.* statistics enabled, the
throughput grows, e.g., from 250 to 310 KIOPS (+25%) on an Intel
i7-4850HQ, in case of 8 threads doing random I/O in parallel on
null_blk, with the latter configured with 0 latency. We obtained the
same or higher throughput boosts, up to +30%, with other processors
(some figures are reported in the documentation). For our tests, we
used the script [1], with which our results can be easily reproduced.
NOTE. This commit still protects the invocation of blkg_*stats_*
functions with the request_queue lock, because the group these
functions are invoked on may otherwise disappear before or while these
functions are executed. Fortunately, tests without even this lock
show, by difference, that the serialization caused by this lock has a
little impact (at most ~5% of throughput reduction).

bfqg_stats_update_io_add and bfqg_stats_update_io_remove are to be
invoked, respectively, when an I/O request enters and when an I/O
request exits the scheduler. Unfortunately, bfq does not fully comply
with this scheme, because it does not invoke these functions for
requests that are inserted into or extracted from its priority
dispatch list. This commit fixes this mistake.

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.
