2019-03-12mm: refactor readahead defines in mm.hNikolay Borisov
All users of VM_MAX_READAHEAD actually convert it to kbytes and then to pages. Define the macro explicitly as (SZ_128K / PAGE_SIZE). This simplifies the expression in every filesystem. Also rename the macro to VM_READAHEAD_PAGES to properly convey its meaning.

Pull io_uring IO interface from Jens Axboe: "Second attempt at adding the io_uring interface. Since the first one, we've added basic unit testing of the three system calls, that resides in liburing like the other unit tests that we have so far. It'll take a while to get full coverage of it, but we're working towards it. I've also added two basic test programs to tools/io_uring. One uses the raw interface and has support for all the various features that io_uring supports outside of standard IO, like fixed files, fixed IO buffers, and polled IO. The other uses the liburing API, and is a simplified version of cp(1). This adds support for a new IO interface, io_uring. io_uring allows an application to communicate with the kernel through two rings, the submission queue (SQ) and completion queue (CQ) ring. This allows for very efficient handling of IOs, see the v5 posting for some basic numbers: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20190116175003.17880-1-axboe@kernel.dk/ Outside of just efficiency, the interface is also flexible and extendable, and allows for future use cases like the upcoming NVMe key-value store API, networked IO, and so on. It also supports async buffered IO, something that we've always failed to support in the kernel. Outside of basic IO features, it supports async polled IO as well. This particular feature has already been tested at Facebook months ago for flash storage boxes, with 25-33% improvements. It makes polled IO actually useful for real world use cases, where even basic flash sees a nice win in terms of efficiency, latency, and performance. These boxes were IOPS bound before, now they are not. This series adds three new system calls. One for setting up an io_uring instance (io_uring_setup(2)), one for submitting/completing IO (io_uring_enter(2)), and one for aux functions like registrating file sets, buffers, etc (io_uring_register(2)). Through the help of Arnd, I've coordinated the syscall numbers so merge on that front should be painless. Jon did a writeup of the interface a while back, which (except for minor details that have been tweaked) is still accurate. Find that here: https://lwn.net/Articles/776703/ Huge thanks to Al Viro for helping getting the reference cycle code correct, and to Jann Horn for his extensive reviews focused on both security and bugs in general. There's a userspace library that provides basic functionality for applications that don't need or want to care about how to fiddle with the rings directly. It has helpers to allow applications to easily set up an io_uring instance, and submit/complete IO through it without knowing about the intricacies of the rings. It also includes man pages (thanks to Jeff Moyer), and will continue to grow support helper functions and features as time progresses. Find it here: git://git.kernel.dk/liburing Fio has full support for the raw interface, both in the form of an IO engine (io_uring), but also with a small test application (t/io_uring) that can exercise and benchmark the interface" * tag 'io_uring-2019-03-06' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: io_uring: add a few test tools io_uring: allow workqueue item to handle multiple buffered requests io_uring: add support for IORING_OP_POLL io_uring: add io_kiocb ref count io_uring: add submission polling io_uring: add file set registration net: split out functions related to registering inflight socket files io_uring: add support for pre-mapped user IO buffers block: implement bio helper to add iter bvec pages to bio io_uring: batch io_kiocb allocation io_uring: use fget/fput_many() for file references fs: add fget_many() and fput_many() io_uring: support for IO polling io_uring: add fsync support Add io_uring IO interface

2019-02-28block: implement bio helper to add iter bvec pages to bioJens Axboe
For an ITER_BVEC, we can just iterate the iov and add the pages to the bio directly. For now, we grab a reference to those pages, and release them normally on IO completion. This isn't really needed for the normal case of O_DIRECT from/to a file, but some of the more esoteric use cases (like splice(2)) will unconditionally put the pipe buffer pages when the buffers are released. Until we can manage that case properly, ITER_BVEC pages are treated like normal pages in terms of reference counting.

2019-02-21block: bounce: make sure that bvec table is updatedMing Lei
Block bounce needs to allocate new page for doing IO, and the new page has to be updated to bvec table. Commit 6dc4f100c switches __blk_queue_bounce() to use the new bio_for_each_segment_all() interface. Unfortunately the new bio_for_each_segment_all() can't be used to update bvec table. This patch fixes this issue by retrieving bvec from the table directly, then the new allocated page can be updated to the bio. This way is safe because the cloned bio is single page bvec.

2019-02-15block: kill QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGEMing Lei
Since bdced438acd83ad83a6c ("block: setup bi_phys_segments after splitting"), physical segment number is mainly figured out in blk_queue_split() for fast path, and the flag of BIO_SEG_VALID is set there too. Now only blk_recount_segments() and blk_recalc_rq_segments() use this flag. Basically blk_recount_segments() is bypassed in fast path given BIO_SEG_VALID is set in blk_queue_split(). For another user of blk_recalc_rq_segments(): - run in partial completion branch of blk_update_request, which is an unusual case - run in blk_cloned_rq_check_limits(), still not a big problem if the flag is killed since dm-rq is the only user. Multi-page bvec is enabled now, not doing S/G merging is rather pointless with the current setup of the I/O path, as it isn't going to save you a significant amount of cycles.

Note that quiesce_queue is not needed as this only updating iolatency configuration about which dispatching request_queue doesn't care.

There's a lot of outstanding debugfs cleanup patches coming in through different subsystem trees, and in that process the debugfs core was found that it really should return errors when something bad happens, to prevent random files from showing up in the root of debugfs afterward. So debugfs was fixed up to handle this properly, and then two fixes for the relay and blk-mq code was needed as it was making invalid assumptions about debugfs return values. There's also a cacheinfo fix in here that resolves a tiny issue.

2019-02-01blk-mq: save default hctx into ctx->hctxs for not-supported typeJianchao Wang
Currently, we check whether the hctx type is supported every time in hot path. Actually, this is not necessary, we could save the default hctx into ctx->hctxs if the type is not supported when map swqueues and use it directly with ctx->hctxs[type]. We also needn't check whether the poll is enabled or not, because the caller would clear the REQ_HIPRI in that case.

Currently, the queue mapping result is saved in a two-dimensional array. In the hot path, to get a hctx, we need do following: q->queue_hw_ctx[q->tag_set->map[type].mq_map[cpu]] This isn't very efficient.

2019-01-31block, bfq: fix in-service-queue check for queue mergingPaolo Valente
When a new I/O request arrives for a bfq_queue, say Q, bfq checks whether that request is close to (a) the head request of some other queue waiting to be served, or (b) the last request dispatched for the in-service queue (in case Q itself is not the in-service queue) If a queue, say Q2, is found for which the above condition holds, then bfq merges Q and Q2, to hopefully get a more sequential I/O in the resulting merged queue, and thus a possibly higher throughput. Case (b) is checked by comparing the new request for Q with the last request dispatched, assuming that the latter necessarily belonged to the in-service queue. Unfortunately, this assumption is no longer always correct, since commit d0edc2473be9 ("block, bfq: inject other-queue I/O into seeky idle queues on NCQ flash"). When the assumption does not hold, queues that must not be merged may be merged, causing unexpected loss of control on per-queue service guarantees. This commit solves this problem by adding an extra field, which stores the actual last request dispatched for the in-service queue, and by using this new field to correctly check case (b).

2019-01-31block, bfq: do not overcharge writes in asymmetric scenariosPaolo Valente
Writes tend to starve reads. bfq counters this problem by overcharging writes with an inflated service w.r.t. the actual service (number of sector written) they receive. Yet his overcharging is useless, and actually causes unfairness in the opposite direction, when bfq happens to be enforcing strong I/O control. bfq does this enforcing when the scenario is asymmetric, i.e., when some bfq_queue or group of bfq_queues is to be granted a different bandwidth than some other bfq_queue or group of bfq_queues. So, in such a scenario, this commit disables write overcharging. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

The original commit is commit 1a1238a7dd48 ("cfq-iosched: improve hw_tag detection") and has the following commit message: If active queue hasn't enough requests and idle window opens, cfq will not dispatch sufficient requests to hardware. In such situation, current code will zero hw_tag. But this is because cfq doesn't dispatch enough requests instead of hardware queue doesn't work. Don't zero hw_tag in such case.

2019-01-31block, bfq: reduce threshold for detecting command queueingPaolo Valente
bfq simple heuristic from cfq for detecting whether the drive performs command queueing: check whether the average number of in-flight requests is above a given threshold. Unfortunately this heuristic does fail to detect queueing (on drives with queueing) if processes doing I/O are few and issue I/O with a low depth. To reduce false negatives, this commit lowers the threshold. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2019-01-31block, bfq: fix queue removal from weights treePaolo Valente
bfq maintains an ordered list, through a red-black tree, of unique weights of active bfq_queues. This list is used to detect whether there are active queues with differentiated weights. The weight of a queue is removed from the list when both the following two conditions become true: (1) the bfq_queue is flagged as inactive (2) the has no in-flight request any longer; Unfortunately, in the rare cases where condition (2) becomes true before condition (1), the removal fails, because the function to remove the weight of the queue (bfq_weights_tree_remove) is rightly invoked in the path that deactivates the bfq_queue, but mistakenly invoked *before* the function that actually performs the deactivation (bfq_deactivate_bfqq). This commits moves the invocation of bfq_weights_tree_remove for condition (1) to after bfq_deactivate_bfqq. As a consequence of this move, it is necessary to add a further reference to the queue when the weight of a queue is added, because the queue might otherwise be freed before bfq_weights_tree_remove is invoked. This commit adds this reference and makes all related modifications. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

In bfq_update_peak_rate, to check whether an I/O request rq is sequential, only the seek distance of rq w.r.t. the last request dispatched is controlled. This is not sufficient for non-rotational storage, where the size of rq is at least as relevant. This commit adds the missing control.

2019-01-31block, bfq: unconditionally plug I/O in asymmetric scenariosPaolo Valente
bfq detects the creation of multiple bfq_queues shortly after each other, namely a burst of queue creations in the terminology used in the code. If the burst is large, then no queue in the burst is granted - either I/O-dispatch plugging when the queue remains temporarily idle while in service; - or weight raising, because it causes even longer plugging. In fact, such a plugging tends to lower throughput, while these bursts are typically due to applications or services that spawn multiple processes, to reach a common goal as soon as possible. Examples are a "git grep" or the booting of a system. Unfortunately, disabling plugging may cause a loss of service guarantees in asymmetric scenarios, i.e., if queue weights are differentiated or if more than one group is active. This commit addresses this issue by no longer disabling I/O-dispatch plugging for queues in large bursts.

2019-01-31block, bfq: do not plug I/O of in-service queue when harmfulPaolo Valente
If the in-service bfq_queue is sync and remains temporarily idle, then I/O dispatching (from other queues) may be plugged. It may be dome for two reasons: either to boost throughput, or to preserve the bandwidth share of the in-service queue. In the first case, if the I/O of the in-service queue, when it finally arrives, consists only of one small I/O request, then it makes sense to plug even the I/O of the in-service queue. In fact, serving such a small request immediately is likely to lower throughput instead of boosting it, whereas waiting a little bit is likely to let that request grow, thanks to request merging, and become more profitable in terms of throughput (this is likely to happen exactly because the I/O of the queue has been detected to boost throughput). On the opposite end, if I/O dispatching is being plugged only to preserve the bandwidth of the in-service queue, then it would be better not to plug also the I/O of the in-service queue, because such a plugging is likely to cause only loss of bandwidth for the queue. Unfortunately, no distinction is made between the two cases, and the I/O of the in-service queue is always plugged in case just a small I/O request arrives. This commit draws this missing distinction and does not perform harmful plugging. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
