Jens Axboe f95a0d6a95 Merge commit '8e8320c9315c' into for-4.13/block
Pull in the fix for shared tags, as it conflicts with the pending
changes in for-4.13/block. We already pulled in v4.12-rc5 to solve
other conflicts or get fixes that went into 4.12, so not a lot
of changes in this merge.

Jens Axboe 8e8320c931 blk-mq: fix performance regression with shared tags
If we have shared tags enabled, then every IO completion will trigger
a full loop of every queue belonging to a tag set, and every hardware
queue for each of those queues, even if nothing needs to be done.
This causes a massive performance regression if you have a lot of
shared devices.

Instead of doing this huge full scan on every IO, add an atomic
counter to the main queue that tracks how many hardware queues have
been marked as needing a restart. With that, we can avoid looking for
restartable queues, if we don't have to.

Max reports that this restores performance. Before this patch, 4K
IOPS was limited to 22-23K IOPS. With the patch, we are running at
950-970K IOPS.

Fixes: 6d8c6c0f97 ("blk-mq: Restart a single queue if tag sets are shared")

Bart Van Assche d280bab305 block: Introduce request_queue.initialize_rq_fn()
Several block drivers need to initialize the driver-private request
data after having called blk_get_request() and before .prep_rq_fn()
is called, e.g. when submitting a REQ_OP_SCSI_* request. Avoid that
that initialization code has to be repeated after every
blk_get_request() call by adding new callback functions to struct
request_queue and to struct blk_mq_ops.

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 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 2a842acab1 block: introduce new block status code type
Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.

For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.

blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

Linus Torvalds 0fcc3ab23d Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
 "Incremental fixes and a small feature addition on top of the main
  libnvdimm 4.12 pull request:

   - Geert noticed that tinyconfig was bloated by BLOCK selecting DAX.
     The size regression is fixed by moving all dax helpers into the
     dax-core and only specifying "select DAX" for FS_DAX and
     dax-capable drivers. He also asked for clarification of the
     NR_DEV_DAX config option which, on closer look, does not need to be
     a config option at all. Mike also throws in a DEV_DAX_PMEM fixup
     for good measure.

   - Ben's attention to detail on -stable patch submissions caught a
     case where the recent fixes to arch_copy_from_iter_pmem() missed a
     condition where we strand dirty data in the cache. This is tagged
     for -stable and will also be included in the rework of the pmem api
     to a proposed {memcpy,copy_user}_flushcache() interface for 4.13.

   - Vishal adds a feature that missed the initial pull due to pending
     review feedback. It allows the kernel to clear media errors when
     initializing a BTT (atomic sector update driver) instance on a pmem
     namespace.

   - Ross noticed that the dax_device + dax_operations conversion broke
     __dax_zero_page_range(). The nvdimm unit tests fail to check this
     path, but xfstests immediately trips over it. No excuse for missing
     this before submitting the 4.12 pull request.

  These all pass the nvdimm unit tests and an xfstests spot check. The
  set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot"

* 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm:
  filesystem-dax: fix broken __dax_zero_page_range() conversion
  libnvdimm, btt: ensure that initializing metadata clears poison
  libnvdimm: add an atomic vs process context flag to rw_bytes
  x86, pmem: Fix cache flushing for iovec write < 8 bytes

2017-05-12 15:43:10 -07:00
Dan Williams ef51042472 block, dax: move "select DAX" from BLOCK to FS_DAX
For configurations that do not enable DAX filesystems or drivers, do not
require the DAX core to be built.

Given that the 'direct_access' method has been removed from
'block_device_operations', we can also go ahead and remove the
block-related dax helper functions from fs/block_dev.c to
drivers/dax/super.c. This keeps dax details out of the block layer and
lets the DAX core be built as a module in the FS_DAX=n case.

Filesystems need to include dax.h to call bdev_dax_supported().

 or "btt-sector" mode this new interface reports media errors
 generically, i.e. independent of namespace modes or state. This
 subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1 Section
 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error" requests and
 submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus devices.
 
 * Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted by
 a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for dax
 capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations. This fixes
 the broken assumption that all dax operations are related to a
 persistent memory device, and makes it easier for other architectures
 and platforms to add customized persistent memory support.
 
 * 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is
 available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger memory
 controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would otherwise be
 flushed automatically by the platform ADR (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh)
 mechanism at a power loss event. Support for "locked" DIMMs is included
 to prevent namespaces from surfacing when the namespace label data area
 is locked. Finally, fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes,
 also tagged for -stable.
 
 * ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to add
 DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM payload
 debug available by default, and various fixes.

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.

   was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement
   fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant
   to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness.
   From Paolo.

 - Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler,
   using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on
   live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.

 - A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing
   devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life
   times, solving various problems with hot removal.

 - A series of updates for lightnvm, mostly from Javier. Includes a
   'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block
   device.

 - A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.

 - A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
   legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
   queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
   more than a decade.

 - Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
   windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
   register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.

 - blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
   framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
   blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
   marked experimental for now.

 - Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves
   efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size
   IO.

 - A few fixes for opal, from Scott.

 - A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics.
   From a variety of folks, mostly Sagi and James Smart.

 - A series from Bart, improving our exposed info and capabilities from
   the blk-mq debugfs support.

 - A series from Christoph, cleaning up how handle WRITE_ZEROES.

 - A series from Christoph, cleaning up the block layer handling of how
   we track errors in a request. On top of being a nice cleanup, it also
   shrinks the size of struct request a bit.

 - Removal of mg_disk and hd (sorry Linus) by Christoph. The former was
   never used by platforms, and the latter has outlived it's usefulness.

 - Various little bug fixes and cleanups from a wide variety of folks.

Arianna Avanzini e21b7a0b98 block, bfq: add full hierarchical scheduling and cgroups support
Add complete support for full hierarchical scheduling, with a cgroups
interface. Full hierarchical scheduling is implemented through the
'entity' abstraction: both bfq_queues, i.e., the internal BFQ queues
associated with processes, and groups are represented in general by
entities. Given the bfq_queues associated with the processes belonging
to a given group, the entities representing these queues are sons of
the entity representing the group. At higher levels, if a group, say
G, contains other groups, then the entity representing G is the parent
entity of the entities representing the groups in G.

Hierarchical scheduling is performed as follows: if the timestamps of
a leaf entity (i.e., of a bfq_queue) change, and such a change lets
the entity become the next-to-serve entity for its parent entity, then
the timestamps of the parent entity are recomputed as a function of
the budget of its new next-to-serve leaf entity. If the parent entity
belongs, in its turn, to a group, and its new timestamps let it become
the next-to-serve for its parent entity, then the timestamps of the
latter parent entity are recomputed as well, and so on. When a new
bfq_queue must be set in service, the reverse path is followed: the
next-to-serve highest-level entity is chosen, then its next-to-serve
child entity, and so on, until the next-to-serve leaf entity is
reached, and the bfq_queue that this entity represents is set in
service.

Writeback is accounted for on a per-group basis, i.e., for each group,
the async I/O requests of the processes of the group are enqueued in a
distinct bfq_queue, and the entity associated with this queue is a
child of the entity associated with the group.

Weights can be assigned explicitly to groups and processes through the
cgroups interface, differently from what happens, for single
processes, if the cgroups interface is not used (as explained in the
description of the previous patch). In particular, since each node has
a full scheduler, each group can be assigned its own weight.

Ming Lei 5a8d75a1b8 block: fix bio_will_gap() for first bvec with offset
Commit 729204ef49ec("block: relax check on sg gap") allows us to merge
bios, if both are physically contiguous.  This change can merge a huge
number of small bios, through mkfs for example, mkfs.ntfs running time
can be decreased to ~1/10.

But if one rq starts with a non-aligned buffer (the 1st bvec's bv_offset
is non-zero) and if we allow the merge, it is quite difficult to respect
sg gap limit, especially the max segment size, or we risk having an
unaligned virtual boundary.  This patch tries to avoid the issue by
disallowing a merge, if the req starts with an unaligned buffer.

Also add comments to explain why the merged segment can't end in
unaligned virt boundary.

Omar Sandoval 34dbad5d26 blk-stat: convert to callback-based statistics reporting
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.
