2015-05-08blk-mq: make plug work for mutiple disks and queuesShaohua Li
Last patch makes plug work for multiple queue case. However it only works for single disk case, because it assumes only one request in the plug list. If a task is accessing multiple disks, eg MD/DM, the assumption is wrong. Let blk_attempt_plug_merge() record request from the same queue. V2: use NULL parameter in !mq case. Fix a bug. Add comments in blk_attempt_plug_merge to make it less (hopefully) confusion.

2015-05-08blk-mq: do limited block plug for multiple queue caseShaohua Li
plug is still helpful for workload with IO merge, but it can be harmful otherwise especially with multiple hardware queues, as there is (supposed) no lock contention in this case and plug can introduce latency. For multiple queues, we do limited plug, eg plug only if there is request merge. If a request doesn't have merge with following request, the requet will be dispatched immediately. V2: check blk_queue_nomerges() as suggested by Jeff. Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-05-08blk-mq: avoid re-initialize request which is failed in direct dispatchShaohua Li
If we directly issue a request and it fails, we use blk_mq_merge_queue_io(). But we already assigned bio to a request in blk_mq_bio_to_request. blk_mq_merge_queue_io shouldn't run blk_mq_bio_to_request again. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-05-08blk-mq: fix plugging in blk_sq_make_requestJeff Moyer
The following appears in blk_sq_make_request: /* * If we have multiple hardware queues, just go directly to * one of those for sync IO. */ We clearly don't have multiple hardware queues, here! This comment was introduced with this commit 07068d5b8e (blk-mq: split make request handler for multi and single queue): We want slightly different behavior from them: - On single queue devices, we currently use the per-process plug for deferred IO and for merging. - On multi queue devices, we don't use the per-process plug, but we want to go straight to hardware for SYNC IO. The old code had this: use_plug = !is_flush_fua && ((q->nr_hw_queues == 1) || !is_sync); and that was converted to: use_plug = !is_flush_fua && !is_sync; which is not equivalent. For the single queue case, that second half of the && expression is always true. So, what I think was actually inteded follows (and this more closely matches what is done in blk_queue_bio).

2015-05-08blk: clean up plugShaohua Li
Current code looks like inner plug gets flushed with a blk_finish_plug(). Actually it's a nop. All requests/callbacks are added to current->plug, while only outmost plug is assigned to current->plug. So inner plug always has empty request/callback list, which makes blk_flush_plug_list() a nop. This tries to make the code more clear.

2015-05-05bio: skip atomic inc/dec of ->bi_cnt for most use casesJens Axboe
Struct bio has a reference count that controls when it can be freed. Most uses cases is allocating the bio, which then returns with a single reference to it, doing IO, and then dropping that single reference. We can remove this atomic_dec_and_test() in the completion path, if nobody else is holding a reference to the bio. If someone does call bio_get() on the bio, then we flag the bio as now having valid count and that we must properly honor the reference count when it's being put.

2015-05-05bio: skip atomic inc/dec of ->bi_remaining for non-chainsJens Axboe
Struct bio has an atomic ref count for chained bio's, and we use this to know when to end IO on the bio. However, most bio's are not chained, so we don't need to always introduce this atomic operation as part of ending IO. Add a helper to elevate the bi_remaining count, and flag the bio as now actually needing the decrement at end_io time. Rename the field to __bi_remaining to catch any current users of this doing the incrementing manually. For high IOPS workloads, this reduces the overhead of bio_endio() substantially.

2015-04-11blk-mq: initialize 'struct request' and associated data to zeroLinus Torvalds
Jan Engelhardt reports a strange oops with an invalid ->sense_buffer pointer in scsi_init_cmd_errh() with the blk-mq code. The sense_buffer pointer should have been initialized by the call to scsi_init_request() from blk_mq_init_rq_map(), but there seems to be some non-repeatable memory corruptor. This patch makes sure we initialize the whole struct request allocation (and the associated 'struct scsi_cmnd' for the SCSI case) to zero, by using __GFP_ZERO in the allocation. The old code initialized a couple of individual fields, leaving the rest undefined (although many of them are then initialized in later phases, like blk_mq_rq_ctx_init() etc. It's not entirely clear why this matters, but it's the rigth thing to do regardless, and with 4.0 imminent this is the defensive "let's just make sure everything is initialized properly" patch.

2015-03-31block: fix blk_stack_limits() regression due to lcm() changeMike Snitzer
Linux 3.19 commit 69c953c ("lib/lcm.c: lcm(n,0)=lcm(0,n) is 0, not n") caused blk_stack_limits() to not properly stack queue_limits for stacked devices (e.g. DM). Fix this regression by establishing lcm_not_zero() and switching blk_stack_limits() over to using it. DM uses blk_set_stacking_limits() to establish the initial top-level queue_limits that are then built up based on underlying devices' limits using blk_stack_limits(). In the case of optimal_io_size (io_opt) blk_set_stacking_limits() establishes a default value of 0. With commit 69c953c, lcm(0, n) is no longer n, which compromises proper stacking of the underlying devices' io_opt.

When allocating from the reserved tags pool, bt_get() is called with a NULL hctx.

Add a variant of blk_mq_init_queue that allows a previously allocated queue to be initialized. blk_mq_init_allocated_queue models blk_init_allocated_queue -- which was also created for DM's use. DM's approach to device creation requires a placeholder request_queue be allocated for use with alloc_dev() but the decision about what type of request_queue will be ultimately created is deferred until all component devices referenced in the DM table are processed to determine the table type (request-based, blk-mq request-based, or bio-based). Also, because of DM's late finalization of the request_queue type the call to blk_mq_register_disk() doesn't happen during alloc_dev(). Must export blk_mq_register_disk() so that DM can backfill the 'mq' dir once the blk-mq queue is fully allocated.

2015-02-09cfq-iosched: handle failure of cfq group allocationKonstantin Khlebnikov
Cfq_lookup_create_cfqg() allocates struct blkcg_gq using GFP_ATOMIC. In cfq_find_alloc_queue() possible allocation failure is not handled. As a result kernel oopses on NULL pointer dereference when cfq_link_cfqq_cfqg() calls cfqg_get() for NULL pointer. Bug was introduced in v3.5 in commit cd1604fab4f9 ("blkcg: factor out blkio_group creation"). Prior to that commit cfq group lookup had returned pointer to root group as fallback. This patch handles this error using existing fallback oom_cfqq.

2015-02-05block: Quiesce zeroout wrapperMartin K. Petersen
blkdev_issue_zeroout() printed a warning if a device failed a discard or write same request despite advertising support for these. That's fine for SCSI since we'll disable these commands if we get an error back from the disk saying that they are not supported. And consequently the warning only gets printed once. There are other types of block devices that support discard, however, and these may return -EOPNOTSUPP for each command but leave discard enabled in the queue limits. This will cause a warning message for every blkdev_issue_zeroout() invocation. Remove the offending warning messages. Reported-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Martin K.

The (new) io_wait_event() will never see a false condition in case of the spinning and we will therefore not block.

2015-01-28block: keep established cmd_flags when cloning into a blk-mq requestKeith Busch
blk_mq_alloc_request() may establish REQ_MQ_INFLIGHT in addition to incrementing the hctx->nr_active count. Any cmd_flags that are established in the newly allocated clone request must be preserved in addition to the cmd_flags that are later copied over from the original request as part of blk_rq_prep_clone(). Otherwise, if REQ_MQ_INFLIGHT isn't set in the clone request the hctx->nr_active count won't get decremented via blk_mq_free_request(). The only consumer of blk_rq_prep_clone() is request-based DM, which uses blk_rq_init() prior to calling blk_rq_prep_clone() for the non-blk-mq case. Given the cloned request's cmd_flags will be 0 it is safe to OR them with the original request's cmd_flags for both the non-blk-mq and blk-mq cases.
