Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this update was stabilized before the merge window and
appeared in -next. The "device dax" implementation was revised this
week in response to review feedback, and to address failures detected
by the recently expanded ndctl unit test suite.
Not included in this pull request are two dax topic branches (dax
error handling, and dax radix-tree locking). These topics were
deferred to get a few more days of -next integration testing, and to
coordinate a branch baseline with Ted and the ext4 tree. Vishal and
Ross will send the error handling and locking topics respectively in
the next few days.
This branch has received a positive build result from the kbuild robot
across 226 configs.
Summary:
- Device DAX for persistent memory: Device DAX is the device-centric
analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory
ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening
file system. Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable.
Specifically this interface:
a) Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size
(pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.
b) Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what
fault scenarios are supported.
Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also
targeted for exclusive allocations of performance/feature
differentiated memory ranges.
- Support for the HPE DSM (device specific method) command formats.
This enables management of these first generation devices until a
unified DSM specification materializes.
- Further ACPI 6.1 compliance with support for the common dimm
identifier format.
- Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem"

Pull core block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the core block IO changes for this merge window. Nothing
earth shattering in here, it's mostly just fixes. In detail:

Commit 326e1dbb57 ("block: remove management of bi_remaining when
restoring original bi_end_io") made bio_inc_remaining() private to bio.c
because the only use-case that made sense was confined to the
bio_chain() interface.
Since that time DM thinp went on to use bio_chain() in its relatively
complex implementation of async discard support. That implementation,
even when converted over to use the new async __blkdev_issue_discard()
interface, depends on deferred completion of the original discard bio --
which is most appropriately implemented using bio_inc_remaining().
DM thinp foolishly duplicated bio_inc_remaining(), local to dm-thin.c as
__bio_inc_remaining(), so re-exporting bio_inc_remaining() allows us to
put an end to that foolishness.
All said, bio_inc_remaining() should really only be used in conjunction
with bio_chain(). It isn't intended for generic bio reference counting.

Commit 38f25255330 ("block: add __blkdev_issue_discard") incorrectly
disallowed the early return of -EOPNOTSUPP if the device doesn't support
discard (or secure discard). This early return of -EOPNOTSUPP has
always been part of blkdev_issue_discard() interface so there isn't a
good reason to break that behaviour -- especially when it can be easily
reinstated.
The nuance of allowing early return of -EOPNOTSUPP vs disallowing late
return of -EOPNOTSUPP is: if the overall device never advertised support
for discards and one is issued to the device it is beneficial to inform
the caller that discards are not supported via -EOPNOTSUPP. But if a
device advertises discard support it means that at least a subset of the
device does have discard support -- but it could be that discards issued
to some regions of a stacked device will not be supported. In that case
the late return of -EOPNOTSUPP must be disallowed.

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
"A few fixes for the current series. This contains:
- Two fixes for NVMe:
One fixes a reset race that can be triggered by repeated
insert/removal of the module.
The other fixes an issue on some platforms, where we get probe
timeouts since legacy interrupts isn't working. This used not to
be a problem since we had the worker thread poll for completions,
but since that was killed off, it means those poor souls can't
successfully probe their NVMe device. Use a proper IRQ check and
probe (msi-x -> msi ->legacy), like most other drivers to work
around this. Both from Keith.
- A loop corruption issue with offset in iters, from Ming Lei.
- A fix for not having the partition stat per cpu ref count
initialized before sending out the KOBJ_ADD, which could cause user
space to access the counter prior to initialization. Also from
Ming Lei.
- A fix for using the wrong congestion state, from Kaixu Xia"

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

queue_for_each_ctx() iterates over per_cpu variables under the assumption that
the possible cpu mask cannot have holes. That's wrong as all cpumasks can have
holes. In case there are holes the iteration ends up accessing uninitialized
memory and crashing as a result.
Replace the macro by a proper for_each_possible_cpu() loop and drop the unused
macro blk_ctx_sum() which references queue_for_each_ctx().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Most attention this cycle went to optimizing blk-mq request-based DM
(dm-mq) that is used exclussively by DM multipath:
- A stable fix for dm-mq that eliminates excessive context
switching offers the biggest performance improvement (for both
IOPs and throughput).
- But more work is needed, during the next cycle, to reduce
spinlock contention in DM multipath on large NUMA systems.
- A stable fix for a NULL pointer seen when DM stats is enabled on a DM
multipath device that must requeue an IO due to path failure.
- A stable fix for DM snapshot to disallow the COW and origin devices
from being identical. This amounts to graceful failure in the face
of userspace error because these devices shouldn't ever be identical.
- Stable fixes for DM cache and DM thin provisioning to address crashes
seen if/when their respective metadata device experiences failures
that cause the transition to 'fail_io' mode.
- The DM cache 'mq' policy is now an alias for the 'smq' policy. The
'smq' policy proved to be consistently better than 'mq'. As such
'mq', with all its complex user-facing tunables, has been eliminated.
- Improve DM thin provisioning to consistently return -ENOSPC once the
thin-pool's data volume is out of space.
- Improve DM core to properly handle error propagation if
bio_integrity_clone() fails in clone_bio().
- Other small cleanups and improvements to DM core.

This patch has been carried in the Android tree for quite some time and
is one of the few patches required to get a mainline kernel up and
running with an exsiting Android userspace. So I wanted to submit it
for review and consideration if it should be merged.
For partitions, add new uevent parameters 'PARTN' which specifies the
partitions index in the table, and 'PARTNAME', which specifies PARTNAME
specifices the partition name of a partition device.
Android's userspace uses this for creating device node links from the
partition name and number, ie:
/dev/block/platform/soc/by-name/system
or
/dev/block/platform/soc/by-num/p1
One can see its usage here:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/init/devices.cpp#355
and

This patch adds support for larger requests in blk_rq_map_user_iov by
allowing it to build multiple bios for a request. This functionality
used to exist for the non-vectored blk_rq_map_user in the past, and
this patch reuses the existing functionality for it on the unmap side,
which stuck around. Thanks to the iov_iter API supporting multiple
bios is fairly trivial, as we can just iterate the iov until we've
consumed the whole iov_iter.

Request-based DM's blk-mq support (dm-mq) was reported to be 50% slower
than if an underlying null_blk device were used directly. One of the
reasons for this drop in performance is that blk_insert_clone_request()
was calling blk_mq_insert_request() with @async=true. This forced the
use of kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on() to run the blk-mq hw queues
which ushered in ping-ponging between process context (fio in this case)
and kblockd's kworker to submit the cloned request. The ftrace
function_graph tracer showed:
kworker-2013 => fio-12190
fio-12190 => kworker-2013
...
kworker-2013 => fio-12190
fio-12190 => kworker-2013
...
Fixing blk_insert_clone_request()'s blk_mq_insert_request() call to
_not_ use kblockd to submit the cloned requests isn't enough to
eliminate the observed context switches.
In addition to this dm-mq specific blk-core fix, there are 2 DM core
fixes to dm-mq that (when paired with the blk-core fix) completely
eliminate the observed context switching:
1) don't blk_mq_run_hw_queues in blk-mq request completion
Motivated by desire to reduce overhead of dm-mq, punting to kblockd
just increases context switches.
In my testing against a really fast null_blk device there was no benefit
to running blk_mq_run_hw_queues() on completion (and no other blk-mq
driver does this). So hopefully this change doesn't induce the need for
yet another revert like commit 621739b00e16ca2d !
2) use blk_mq_complete_request() in dm_complete_request()
blk_complete_request() doesn't offer the traditional q->mq_ops vs
.request_fn branching pattern that other historic block interfaces
do (e.g. blk_get_request). Using blk_mq_complete_request() for
blk-mq requests is important for performance. It should be noted
that, like blk_complete_request(), blk_mq_complete_request() doesn't
natively handle partial completions -- but the request-based
DM-multipath target does provide the required partial completion
support by dm.c:end_clone_bio() triggering requeueing of the request
via dm-mpath.c:multipath_end_io()'s return of DM_ENDIO_REQUEUE.
dm-mq fix #2 is _much_ more important than #1 for eliminating the
context switches.
Before: cpu : usr=15.10%, sys=59.39%, ctx=7905181, majf=0, minf=475
After: cpu : usr=20.60%, sys=79.35%, ctx=2008, majf=0, minf=472
With these changes multithreaded async read IOPs improved from ~950K
to ~1350K for this dm-mq stacked on null_blk test-case. The raw read
IOPs of the underlying null_blk device for the same workload is ~1950K.

If block device is left runtime suspended during system suspend, resume
hook of the driver typically corrects runtime PM status of the device back
to "active" after it is resumed. However, this is not enough as queue's
runtime PM status is still "suspended". As long as it is in this state
blk_pm_peek_request() returns NULL and thus prevents new requests to be
processed.
Add new function blk_set_runtime_active() that can be used to force the
queue status back to "active" as needed.

Currently q->mq_ops is used widely to decide if the queue
is mq or not, so we should set the 'flag' asap so that both
block core and drivers can get the correct mq info.
For example, commit 868f2f0b720(blk-mq: dynamic h/w context count)
moves the hctx's initialization before setting q->mq_ops in
blk_mq_init_allocated_queue(), then cause blk_alloc_flush_queue()
to think the queue is non-mq and don't allocate command size
for the per-hctx flush rq.
This patches should fix the problem reported by Sasha.

Commit 35dc248383bbab0a7203fca4d722875bc81ef091 introduced a check for
current->mm to see if we have a user space context and only copies data
if we do. Now if an IO gets interrupted by a signal data isn't copied
into user space any more (as we don't have a user space context) but
user space isn't notified about it.
This patch modifies the behaviour to return -EINTR from bio_uncopy_user()
to notify userland that a signal has interrupted the syscall, otherwise
it could lead to a situation where the caller may get a buffer with
no data returned.
This can be reproduced by issuing SG_IO ioctl()s in one thread while
constantly sending signals to it.
