Currently, blkg is per cgroup-queue-policy combination. This is
unnatural and leads to various convolutions in partially used
duplicate fields in blkg, config / stat access, and general management
of blkgs.
This patch make blkg's per cgroup-queue and let them serve all
policies. blkgs are now created and destroyed by blkcg core proper.
This will allow further consolidation of common management logic into
blkcg core and API with better defined semantics and layering.
As a transitional step to untangle blkg management, elvswitch and
policy [de]registration, all blkgs except the root blkg are being shot
down during elvswitch and bypass. This patch adds blkg_root_update()
to update root blkg in place on policy change. This is hacky and racy
but should be good enough as interim step until we get locking
simplified and switch over to proper in-place update for all blkgs.
-v2: Root blkgs need to be updated on elvswitch too and blkg_alloc()
comment wasn't updated according to the function change. Fixed.
Both pointed out by Vivek.
-v3: v2 updated blkg_destroy_all() to invoke update_root_blkg_pd() for
all policies. This freed root pd during elvswitch before the
last queue finished exiting and led to oops. Directly invoke
update_root_blkg_pd() only on BLKIO_POLICY_PROP from
cfq_exit_queue(). This also is closer to what will be done with
proper in-place blkg update. Reported by Vivek.

With the previous patch to move blkg list heads and counters to
request_queue and blkg, logic to manage them in both policies are
almost identical and can be moved to blkcg core.
This patch moves blkg link logic into blkg_lookup_create(), implements
common blkg unlink code in blkg_destroy(), and updates
blkg_destory_all() so that it's policy specific and can skip root
group. The updated blkg_destroy_all() is now used to both clear queue
for bypassing and elv switching, and release all blkgs on q exit.
This patch introduces a race window where policy [de]registration may
race against queue blkg clearing. This can only be a problem on cfq
unload and shouldn't be a real problem in practice (and we have many
other places where this race already exists). Future patches will
remove these unlikely races.

necessary fields and the next patch will actually move management code

Note that request_queue->blkg_list[] and ->nr_blkgs[] are hardcoded to
have 2 elements. This is to avoid include dependency and will be

Currently, blkg's are embedded in private data blkcg policy private
data structure and thus allocated and freed by policies. This leads
to duplicate codes in policies, hinders implementing common part in
blkcg core with strong semantics, and forces duplicate blkg's for the
same cgroup-q association.
This patch introduces struct blkg_policy_data which is a separate data
structure chained from blkg. Policies specifies the amount of private
data it needs in its blkio_policy_type->pdata_size and blkcg core
takes care of allocating them along with blkg which can be accessed
using blkg_to_pdata(). blkg can be determined from pdata using
pdata_to_blkg(). blkio_alloc_group_fn() method is accordingly updated
to blkio_init_group_fn().
For consistency, tg_of_blkg() and cfqg_of_blkg() are replaced with
blkg_to_tg() and blkg_to_cfqg() respectively, and functions to map in
the reverse direction are added.
Except that policy specific data now lives in a separate data

blkg->dev is dev_t recording the device number of the block device for
the associated request_queue. It is used to identify the associated
block device when printing out configuration or stats.
This is redundant to begin with. A blkg is an association between a
cgroup and a request_queue and it of course is possible to reach
request_queue from blkg and synchronization conventions are in place
for safe q dereferencing, so this shouldn't be necessary from the
beginning. Furthermore, it's initialized by sscanf()ing the device
name of backing_dev_info. The mind boggles.
Anyways, if blkg is visible under rcu lock, we *know* that the
associated request_queue hasn't gone away yet and its bdi is
registered and alive - blkg can't be created for request_queue which
hasn't been fully initialized and it can't go away before blkg is
removed.
Let stat and conf read functions get device name from
blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev and pass it down to printing functions

blkcg is very peculiar in that it allows setting and remembering
configurations for non-existent devices by maintaining separate data
structures for configuration.
This behavior is completely out of the usual norms and outright
confusing; furthermore, it uses dev_t number to match the
configuration to devices, which is unpredictable to begin with and
becomes completely unuseable if EXT_DEVT is fully used.
It is wholely unnecessary - we already have fully functional userland
mechanism to program devices being hotplugged which has full access to
device identification, connection topology and filesystem information.
Add a new struct blkio_group_conf which contains all blkcg
configurations to blkio_group and let blkio_group, which can be
created iff the associated device exists and is removed when the
associated device goes away, carry all configurations.
Note that, after this patch, all newly created blkg's will always have
the default configuration (unlimited for throttling and blkcg's weight
for propio).
This patch makes blkio_policy_node meaningless but doesn't remove it.

Currently both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched implement their own
blkio_group creation code in throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg(). This
patch factors out the common code into blkg_lookup_create(), which
returns ERR_PTR value so that transitional failures due to queue
bypass can be distinguished from other failures.
* New plkio_policy_ops methods blkio_alloc_group_fn() and
blkio_link_group_fn added. Both are transitional and will be
removed once the blkg management code is fully moved into
blk-cgroup.c.
* blkio_alloc_group_fn() allocates policy-specific blkg which is
usually a larger data structure with blkg as the first entry and
intiailizes it. Note that initialization of blkg proper, including
percpu stats, is responsibility of blk-cgroup proper.
Note that default config (weight, bps...) initialization is done
from this method; otherwise, we end up violating locking order
between blkcg and q locks via blkcg_get_CONF() functions.
* blkio_link_group_fn() is called under queue_lock and responsible for
linking the blkg to the queue. blkcg side is handled by blk-cgroup
proper.
* The common blkg creation function is named blkg_lookup_create() and
blkiocg_lookup_group() is renamed to blkg_lookup() for consistency.
Also, throtl / cfq related functions are similarly [re]named for
consistency.
This simplifies blkcg policy implementations and enables further
cleanup.

blk_queue_dead() instead of blk_queue_bypass() leading a user of

For root blkg, blk_throtl_init() was using throtl_alloc_tg()
explicitly and cfq_init_queue() was manually initializing embedded
cfqd->root_group, adding unnecessarily different code paths to blkg

Make both use the usual blkio_group get functions - throtl_get_tg()
and cfq_get_cfqg() - for the root blkio_group too. Note that
blk_throtl_init() callsite is pushed downwards in
blk_alloc_queue_node() so that @q is sufficiently initialized for
throtl_get_tg().
This simplifies root blkg handling noticeably for cfq and will allow
further modularization of blkcg API.

Elevator switch may involve changes to blkcg policies. Implement
shoot down of blkio_groups.
Combined with the previous bypass updates, the end goal is updating
blkcg core such that it can ensure that blkcg's being affected become
quiescent and don't have any per-blkg data hanging around before
commencing any policy updates. Until queues are made aware of the
policies that applies to them, as an interim step, all per-policy blkg
data will be shot down.
* blk-throtl doesn't need this change as it can't be disabled for a
live queue; however, update it anyway as the scheduled blkg
unification requires this behavior change. This means that
blk-throtl configuration will be unnecessarily lost over elevator
switch. This oddity will be removed after blkcg learns to associate
individual policies with request_queues.
* blk-throtl dosen't shoot down root_tg. This is to ease transition.
Unified blkg will always have persistent root group and not shooting
down root_tg for now eases transition to that point by avoiding
having to update td->root_tg and is safe as blk-throtl can never be
disabled

Elevator switch tries hard to keep as much as context until new
elevator is ready so that it can revert to the original state if
initializing the new elevator fails for some reason. Unfortunately,
with more auxiliary contexts to manage, this makes elevator init and
exit paths too complex and fragile.
This patch makes elevator_switch() unregister the current elevator and
flush icq's before start initializing the new one. As we still keep
the old elevator itself, the only difference is that we lose icq's on
rare occassions of switching failure, which isn't critical at all.

Since 2.6.39 (1196f8b), when a driver returns -ENOMEDIUM for open(),
__blkdev_get() calls rescan_partitions() to remove
in-kernel partition structures and raise KOBJ_CHANGE uevent.
However it ends up calling driver's revalidate_disk without open
and could cause oops.
In the case of SCSI:
process A process B
----------------------------------------------
sys_open
__blkdev_get
sd_open
returns -ENOMEDIUM
scsi_remove_device
<scsi_device torn down>
rescan_partitions
sd_revalidate_disk
<oops>
Oopses are reported here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=132388619710052
This patch separates the partition invalidation from rescan_partitions()
and use it for -ENOMEDIUM case.

While updating locking, b2efa05265 "block, cfq: unlink
cfq_io_context's immediately" moved elevator_exit_icq_fn() invocation
from exit_io_context() to the final ioc put. While this doesn't cause
catastrophic failure, it effectively removes task exit notification to
elevator and cause noticeable IO performance degradation with CFQ.
On task exit, CFQ used to immediately expire the slice if it was being
used by the exiting task as no more IO would be issued by the task;
however, after b2efa05265, the notification is lost and disk could sit
idle needlessly, leading to noticeable IO performance degradation for
certain workloads.
This patch renames ioc_exit_icq() to ioc_destroy_icq(), separates
elevator_exit_icq_fn() invocation into ioc_exit_icq() and invokes it
from exit_io_context(). ICQ_EXITED flag is added to avoid invoking
the callback more than once for the same icq.
Walking icq_list from ioc side and invoking elevator callback requires
reverse double locking. This may be better implemented using RCU;
unfortunately, using RCU isn't trivial. e.g. RCU protection would
need to cover request_queue and queue_lock switch on cleanup makes
grabbing queue_lock from RCU unsafe. Reverse double locking should
do, at least for now.

Reverse double lock dancing in ioc_release_fn() can be simplified by
just using trylock on the queue_lock and back out from ioc lock on
trylock failure. Simplify it.

icq->changed was used for ICQ_*_CHANGED bits. Rename it to flags and
access it under ioc->lock instead of using atomic bitops.
ioc_get_changed() is added so that the changed part can be fetched and
cleared as before.
icq->flags will be used to carry other flags.

an awfully long time in -next without any reports.
* tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator:
regulator: Fix getting voltage in max8649_enable_time()
regulator: Fix mc13xxx regulator modular build (again)
Quoth BenH:
"Here are a few powerpc fixes for 3.3, all pretty trivial. I also
added the patch to define GET_IP/SET_IP so we can use some more
asm-generic goodness."
* 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc:
powerpc/pseries/eeh: Fix crash when error happens during device probe
powerpc/pseries: Fix partition migration hang in stop_topology_update
powerpc/powernv: Disable interrupts while taking phb->lock
powerpc: Fix WARN_ON in decrementer_check_overflow
powerpc/wsp: Fix IRQ affinity setting
powerpc: Implement GET_IP/SET_IP
powerpc/wsp: Permanently enable PCI class code workaround
* The most visible fix here is against a regression introduced in 3.3-rc1
that ran cards in Ultra High Speed mode even when they failed to initialize
in that mode, leading to lower-speed cards failing to mount.
* A lockdep warning introduced in 3.3-rc1 is fixed.
* Various other small driver fixes, most notably for a NULL dereference
when using highmem with dw_mmc.

This updates the sha512 fix so that it doesn't cause excessive stack
usage on i386. This is done by reverting to the original code, and
avoiding the W duplication by moving its initialisation into the loop.
As the underlying code is in fact the one that we have used for years,
I'm pushing this now instead of postponing to the next cycle.

EEH may happen during a PCI driver probe. If the driver is trying to
access some register in a loop, the EEH code will try to print the
driver name. But the driver pointer in struct pci_dev is not set until
probe returns successfully.
Use a function to test if the device and the driver pointer is NULL
before accessing the driver's name.
