923218f616 blk-mq: don't allocate driver tag upfront for flush rq
The idea behind it is simple:

1) for none scheduler, driver tag has to be borrowed for flush rq,
   otherwise we may run out of tag, and that causes an IO hang. And
   get/put driver tag is actually noop for none, so reordering tags
   isn't necessary at all.

2) for a real I/O scheduler, we need not allocate a driver tag upfront
   for flush rq. It works just fine to follow the same approach as
   normal requests: allocate driver tag for each rq just before calling
   ->queue_rq().

One driver visible change is that the driver tag isn't shared in the
flush request sequence. That won't be a problem, since we always do that
in legacy path.

Then flush rq need not be treated specially wrt. get/put driver tag.
This cleans up the code - for instance, reorder_tags_to_front() can be
removed, and we needn't worry about request ordering in dispatch list
for avoiding I/O deadlock.

Also we have to put the driver tag before requeueing.

598906f814 blk-flush: use blk_mq_request_bypass_insert()
In the following patch, we will use RQF_FLUSH_SEQ to decide:

1) if the flag isn't set, the flush rq need to be inserted via
blk_insert_flush()

2) otherwise, the flush rq need to be dispatched directly since
it is in flush machinery now.

So we use blk_mq_request_bypass_insert() for requests of bypassing
flush machinery, just like the legacy path did.

9c71c83c85 blk-flush: don't run queue for requests bypassing flush
blk_insert_flush() should only insert request since run queue always
follows it.

In case of bypassing flush, we don't need to run queue because every
blk_insert_flush() follows one run queue.

74d46992e0 block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O.  The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open.  Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device.  But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

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.

7520872c0c block: don't defer flushes on blk-mq + scheduling
For blk-mq with scheduling, we can potentially end up with ALL
driver tags assigned and sitting on the flush queues. If we
defer because of an inlfight data request, then we can deadlock
if that data request doesn't already have a tag assigned.

This fixes a deadlock with running the xfs/297 xfstest, where
thousands of syncs can cause the drive queue to stall.

This adds a set of hooks that intercepts the blk-mq path of
allocating/inserting/issuing/completing requests, allowing
us to develop a scheduler within that framework.

We reuse the existing elevator scheduler API on the registration

devices.

We split driver and scheduler tags, so we can run the scheduling
independently of device queue depth.

36869cb93d Merge branch 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
  release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
  always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
  reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
  probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
  for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.

  The major parts of this pull request is:

   - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
     private implementation instead of using the pig that is
     fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.

   - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
     by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
     writeback queue throttling code.

   - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
     that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.

   - Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
     side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
     scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.

   - Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
     and Shaun.

   - Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.

   - Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
     which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
     Christoph.

   - A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
     stopping and starting in blk-mq.

   - Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.

   - Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.

ef295ecf09 block: better op and flags encoding
Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields.  This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.

In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.

Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits.  Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for

Jan writes:

--

Thanks for report! After some investigation I found out we allocate
elevator specific data in __get_request() only for non-flush requests. And
this is actually required since the flush machinery uses the space in
struct request for something else. Doh. So my patch is just wrong and not
easy to fix since at the time __get_request() is called we are not sure
whether the flush machinery will be used in the end. Jens, please revert
1b2ff19e6a. Thanks!

I'm somewhat surprised that you can reliably hit the race where flushing
gets disabled for the device just while the request is in flight. But I
guess during boot it makes some sense.

So let's just revert it, we can fix the queue run manually after the
fact. This race is rare enough that it didn't trigger in testing, it
requires the specific disable-while-in-flight scenario to trigger.

1b2ff19e6a blk-flush: Queue through IO scheduler when flush not required
Currently blk_insert_flush() just adds flush request to q->queue_head
when flush is not required. That completely bypasses IO scheduler so
e.g. CFQ can be idling waiting for new request to arrive and will idle
through the whole window unnecessarily. Luckily this only happens in
rare cases as usually checks in generic_make_request_checks() clear
FLUSH and FUA flags early if they are not needed.

When no flushing is actually required, we can easily fix the problem by
properly queueing the request through the IO scheduler. Ideally IO
scheduler should be also made aware of requests queued via
blk_flush_queue_rq(). However inserting flush request through IO
scheduler can have unwanted side-effects since due to flush batching
delaying the flush request in IO scheduler will delay all flush requests
possibly coming from other processes. So we keep adding the request
directly to q->queue_head.

0048b4837a blk-mq: fix race between timeout and freeing request
Inside timeout handler, blk_mq_tag_to_rq() is called
to retrieve the request from one tag. This way is obviously
wrong because the request can be freed any time and some
fiedds of the request can't be trusted, then kernel oops
might be triggered[1].

Currently wrt. blk_mq_tag_to_rq(), the only special case is
that the flush request can share same tag with the request
cloned from, and the two requests can't be active at the same
time, so this patch fixes the above issue by updating tags->rqs[tag]
with the active request(either flush rq or the request cloned
from) of the tag.

Also blk_mq_tag_to_rq() gets much simplified with this patch.

Given blk_mq_tag_to_rq() is mainly for drivers and the caller must
make sure the request can't be freed, so in bt_for_each() this
helper is replaced with tags->rqs[tag].

f70ced0917 blk-mq: support per-distpatch_queue flush machinery
This patch supports to run one single flush machinery for
each blk-mq dispatch queue, so that:

- current init_request and exit_request callbacks can
cover flush request too, then the buggy copying way of
initializing flush request's pdu can be fixed

- flushing performance gets improved in case of multi hw-queue

In fio sync write test over virtio-blk(4 hw queues, ioengine=sync,
iodepth=64, numjobs=4, bs=4K), it is observed that througput gets
increased a lot over my test environment:
	- throughput: +70% in case of virtio-blk over null_blk
	- throughput: +30% in case of virtio-blk over SSD image

The multi virtqueue feature isn't merged to QEMU yet, and patches for
the feature can be found in below tree:

	git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ming/qemu.git  	v2.1.0-mq.4

And simply passing 'num_queues=4 vectors=5' should be enough to
enable multi queue(quad queue) feature for QEMU virtio-blk.

e97c293cdf block: introduce 'blk_mq_ctx' parameter to blk_get_flush_queue
This patch adds 'blk_mq_ctx' parameter to blk_get_flush_queue(),
so that this function can find the corresponding blk_flush_queue
bound with current mq context since the flush queue will become
per hw-queue.

For legacy queue, the parameter can be simply 'NULL'.

For multiqueue case, the parameter should be set as the context
from which the related request is originated. With this context
info, the hw queue and related flush queue can be found easily.

This patch introduces 'struct blk_flush_queue' and puts all
flush machinery related fields into this structure, so that

	- flush implementation details aren't exposed to driver
	- it is easy to convert to per dispatch-queue flush machinery

This patch is basically a mechanical replacement.

2edd2c740b blk-mq: remove unnecessary blk_clear_rq_complete()
This patch removes two unnecessary blk_clear_rq_complete(),
the REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE flag is cleared inside blk_mq_start_request(),
so:

	- The blk_clear_rq_complete() in blk_flush_restore_request()
	needn't because the request will be freed later, and clearing
	it here may open a small race window with timeout.

	- The blk_clear_rq_complete() in blk_mq_requeue_request() isn't
	necessary too, even though REQ_ATOM_STARTED is cleared in
	__blk_mq_requeue_request(), in theory it still may cause a small
	race window with timeout since the two clear_bit() may be
	reordered.

requests from irq context, and the current per-request requeue_work
unfortunately causes corruption due to sharing with the csd field for

be requeued.

Drivers shouldn't have to care about the block layer setting aside a
request to implement the flush state machine.  We already override the
mq context and tag to make it more transparent, but so far haven't deal
with the driver private data in the request.  Make sure to override this
as well, and while we're at it add a proper helper sitting in blk-mq.c
that implements the full impersonation.
