blk-mq: remove REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE usages from blk-mq
After the recent updates to use generation number and state based
synchronization, blk-mq no longer depends on REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE except
to avoid firing the same timeout multiple times.
Remove all REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE usages and use a new rq_flags flag
RQF_MQ_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED to avoid firing the same timeout multiple
times. This removes atomic bitops from hot paths too.
v2: Removed blk_clear_rq_complete() from blk_mq_rq_timed_out().

blk-mq: make blk_abort_request() trigger timeout path
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.

blk-mq: replace timeout synchronization with a RCU and generation based scheme
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
patch doesn't change it. It's just documenting the existing race.
v2: - Fixed BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER handling as pointed out by Jianchao.
- s/request->gstate_seqc/request->gstate_seq/ as suggested by Peter.
- READ_ONCE() added in blk_mq_rq_update_state() as suggested by Peter.

block, bfq: put async queues for root bfq groups too
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.

bcache: fix writeback target calc on large devices
Bcache needs to scale the dirty data in the cache over the multiple
backing disks in order to calculate writeback rates for each.
The previous code did this by multiplying the target number of dirty
sectors by the backing device size, and expected it to fit into a
uint64_t; this blows up on relatively small backing devices.
The new approach figures out the bdev's share in 16384ths of the overall
cached data. This is chosen to cope well when bdevs drastically vary in
size and to ensure that bcache can cross the petabyte boundary for each
backing device.
This has been improved based on Tang Junhui's feedback to ensure that
every device gets a share of dirty data, no matter how small it is
compared to the total backing pool.
The existing mechanism is very limited; this is purely a bug fix to
remove limits on volume size. However, there still needs to be change
to make this "fair" over many volumes where some are idle.

Member devices of struct cache_set is used to reference all attached

nr_uuids is calculated in drivers/md/super.c:bch_cache_set_alloc(),
bucket_bytes(c) / sizeof(struct uuid_entry)
Bucket size is determined by user space tool "make-bcache", by default it
is 1024 sectors (defined in bcache-tools/make-bcache.c:main()). So default
nr_uuids value is 4096 from the above calculation.
Every time when bcache code iterates bcache devices of a cache set, all
the 4096 pointers are checked even only 1 bcache device is attached to the
cache set, that's a wast of time and unncessary.
This patch adds a member devices_max_used to struct cache_set. Its value
is 1 + the maximum used index of devices[] in a cache set. When iterating
all valid bcache devices of a cache set, use c->devices_max_used in

However-- there was no guarantee with the existing code that the writes

bcache: stop writeback thread after detaching
Currently, when a cached device detaching from cache, writeback thread is
not stopped, and writeback_rate_update work is not canceled. For example,
after the following command:
echo 1 >/sys/block/sdb/bcache/detach
you can still see the writeback thread. Then you attach the device to the
cache again, bcache will create another writeback thread, for example,
after below command:
echo
ba0fb5cd-658a-4533-9806-
6ce166d883b9 > /sys/block/sdb/bcache/attach
then you will see 2 writeback threads.
This patch stops writeback thread and cancels writeback_rate_update work
when cached device detaching from cache.
Compare with patch v1, this v2 patch moves code down into the register
lock for safety in case of any future changes as Coly and Mike suggested.

bcache: ret IOERR when read meets metadata error
The read request might meet error when searching the btree, but the error
was not handled in cache_lookup(), and this kind of metadata failure will
not go into cached_dev_read_error(), finally, the upper layer will receive
bi_status=0. In this patch we judge the metadata error by the return
value of bch_btree_map_keys(), there are two potential paths give rise to
the error:
1. Because the btree is not totally cached in memery, we maybe get error
when read btree node from cache device (see bch_btree_node_get()), the
likely errno is -EIO, -ENOMEM
2. When read miss happens, bch_btree_insert_check_key() will be called to
insert a "replace_key" to btree(see cached_dev_cache_miss(), just for
doing preparatory work before insert the missed data to cache device),
a failure can also happen in this situation, the likely errno is
-ENOMEM
bch_btree_map_keys() will return MAP_DONE in normal scenario, but we will
get either -EIO or -ENOMEM in above two cases. if this happened, we should
NOT recover data from backing device (when cache device is dirty) because
we don't know whether bkeys the read request covered are all clean. And
after that happened, s->iop.status is still its initially value(0) before
we submit s->bio.bio, we set it to BLK_STS_IOERR, so it can go into
cached_dev_read_error(), and finally it can be passed to upper layer, or
recovered by reread from backing device.

nvme: fix subsystem multiple controllers support check
There is a problem when another module (e.g. nvmet) takes a reference on
the nvme block device and the physical nvme drive is removed. In that
case nvme_free_ctrl() will not be called and the controller state will be
"deleting" or "dead" unless nvmet module releases the block device.
Later on, the same nvme drive probes back and nvme_init_subsystem() will
be called and fail due to duplicate subnqn (if the nvme device doesn't
support subsystem with multiple controllers). This will cause a probe
failure. This commit changes the check of multiple controllers support
at nvme_init_subsystem() by not counting all the controllers at "dead" or
"deleting" state (this is safe because controllers at this state will
never be active again).

nvme-fabrics: protect against module unload during create_ctrl
NVMe transport driver module unload may (and usually does) trigger

device node leakage) in case the controller creation occured after the

nvmet-fc: cleanup nvmet add_port/remove_port
The current fc transport add_port routine validates that there is a
matching port to the target port config. It then takes a reference
on the targetport. The del_port removes the reference.
Unfortunately, if the LLDD undergoes a hw reset or driver unload and
wants to unreg the targetport, due to the reference, the targetport
effectively can't be removed. It requires the admin to remove the
port from the nvmet config first, which calls the del_port.
Note: it appears nvmetcli clear skips over the del_port call (I'm
not attempting to change that).
There's no real reason to take the reference. With FC, there is nothing
to enable or disable as the presence of the FC targetport implicitly
means its enabled, and removal of the targtport means its disabled.
Change add_port to simply validate and change remove_port to a noop.
No references are taken on the targetport.

nvme_fcloop: refactor host/target io job access
The split between what the host accesses on its flows vs what the
target side accesses was flawed. Abort handling didn't properly
clear initiator vs target structure cross-reference and locks
weren't used for synchronization. Thus, there were issues of
freeing structures too soon and access after free.
A couple of these existed pre the IN_ISR mods, but when the
target upcalls were converted to work items, thus adding delays
between the 2 sides of accesses, the problems became pronounced.
Resolve by:
- tracking io state mainly in the tgt-side io structure.
- make the tgt-side io structure released by reference not by
code flow.
- when changing initiator structures, use locks for
synchronization
- aborts are clearly tracked for which side saw the abort, and
after seeing the abort, cross-references are cleared under lock.

nvme_fcloop: rework to remove xxx_IN_ISR feature flags
The existing fcloop driver expects the target side upcalls to
the transport to context switch, thus the calls into the nvmet layer
are not done in the calling context of the host/initiator down calls.
The xxx_IN_ISR feature flags are used to select this logic.
The xxx_IN_ISR feature flags should go away in the nvmet_fc transport
as no other lldd utilizes them. Both Broadcom and Cavium lldds have their
own non-ISR deferred handlers thus the nvmet calls can be made directly.
This patch converts the paths that make the target upcalls (command
receive, abort receive) such that they schedule a work item rather
than expecting the transport to schedule the work item.
The patch also cleans up the following:
- The completion path from target to host scheduled a host work
element called "work". Rename it "tio_done_work" for code clarity.
- The abort io path called a iniwork item to call the host side
io done. This is no longer needed as the abort routine can make
the same call.

area co-allocated with the fc_localport. All is fine except the
teardown path, which wants to wait on the completion, which is marked
complete by the delete_localport callback performed after
unregister_localport. The issue is, the nvme_fc transport frees the
localport structure immediately after delete_localport is called,
meaning the original routine is trying to wait on a complete that
was just freed.
Change such that a lport struct is allocated coincident with the
addition and registration of a localport. The private area of the
localport now contains just a backpointer to the real lport struct.
Now, the completion can be waited for, and after completing, the
new structure can be kfree'd.

block, bfq: consider also past I/O in soft real-time detection
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).

block, bfq: remove superfluous check in queue-merging setup
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.

block, bfq: let a queue be merged only shortly after starting I/O
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.

block, bfq: check low_latency flag in bfq_bfqq_save_state()
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.

block, bfq: add missing rq_pos_tree update on rq removal
If two processes do I/O close to each other, then BFQ merges the
bfq_queues associated with these processes, to get a more sequential
I/O, and thus a higher throughput. In this respect, to detect whether
two processes are doing I/O close to each other, BFQ keeps a list of
the head-of-line I/O requests of all active bfq_queues. The list is
ordered by initial sectors, and implemented through a red-black tree
(rq_pos_tree).
Unfortunately, the update of the rq_pos_tree was incomplete, because
the tree was not updated on the removal of the head-of-line I/O

block, bfq: increase threshold to deem I/O as random
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.

block: introduce zoned block devices zone write locking
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.
