0bf6595ec8 block: don't set bounce limit in blk_init_allocated_queue
And just move it into scsi_transport_sas which needs it due to low-level
drivers directly derferencing bio_data, and into blk_init_queue_node,
which will need a further push into the callers.

46685d1a95 blk-mq: don't bounce by default
For historical reasons we default to bouncing highmem pages for all block
queues.  But the blk-mq drivers are easy to audit to ensure that we don't
need this - scsi and mtip32xx set explicit limits and everyone else doesn't
have any particular ones.

e442cbf910 pktcdvd: remove the call to blk_queue_bounce
pktcdvd is a make_request based stacking driver and thus doesn't have any
addressing limits on it's own.  It also doesn't use bio_data() or
page_address(), so it doesn't need a lowmem bounce either.

f5d1184062 nvme: add support for streams and directives
This adds support for Directives in NVMe, particular for the Streams
directive. Support for Directives is a new feature in NVMe 1.3. It
allows a user to pass in information about where to store the data, so
that it the device can do so most effiently. If an application is
managing and writing data with different life times, mixing differently
retentioned data onto the same locations on flash can cause write
amplification to grow. This, in turn, will reduce performance and life
time of the device.

f793dfd3f3 blk-mq: expose write hints through debugfs
Useful to verify that things are working the way they should.
Reading the file will return number of kb written with each
write hint. Writing the file will reset the statistics. No care
is taken to ensure that we don't race on updates.

Drivers will write to q->write_hints[] if they handle a given
write hint.

cb6934f8ea block: add support for write hints in a bio
No functional changes in this patch, we just use up some holes
in the bio and request structures to define a write hint that
we psas down the stack.

Ensure that we don't merge requests that have different life time
hints assigned to them, and that we inherit the write hint when
cloning a bio.

c75b1d9421 fs: add fcntl() interface for setting/getting write life time hints
Define a set of write life time hints:

RWH_WRITE_LIFE_NOT_SET	No hint information set
RWH_WRITE_LIFE_NONE	No hints about write life time
RWH_WRITE_LIFE_SHORT	Data written has a short life time
RWH_WRITE_LIFE_MEDIUM	Data written has a medium life time
RWH_WRITE_LIFE_LONG	Data written has a long life time
RWH_WRITE_LIFE_EXTREME	Data written has an extremely long life time

The intent is for these values to be relative to each other, no
absolute meaning should be attached to these flag names.

Add an fcntl interface for querying these flags, and also for
setting them as well:

F_GET_RW_HINT		Returns the read/write hint set on the
			underlying inode.

F_SET_RW_HINT		Set one of the above write hints on the
			underlying inode.

F_GET_FILE_RW_HINT	Returns the read/write hint set on the
			file descriptor.

F_SET_FILE_RW_HINT	Set one of the above write hints on the
			file descriptor.

The user passes in a 64-bit pointer to get/set these values, and
the interface returns 0/-1 on success/error.

Sample program testing/implementing basic setting/getting of write
hints is below.

Add support for storing the write life time hint in the inode flags
and in struct file as well, and pass them to the kiocb flags. If
both a file and its corresponding inode has a write hint, then we
use the one in the file, if available. The file hint can be used
for sync/direct IO, for buffered writeback only the inode hint
is available.

This is in preparation for utilizing these hints in the block layer,
to guide on-media data placement.

1405720d4f perf script: Add 'synth' event type for synthesized events
Instruction trace decoders such as Intel PT may have additional information
recorded in the trace. For example, Intel PT has power information and a
there is a new instruction 'ptwrite' that can write a value into a PTWRITE
trace packet.

Such information may be associated with an IP and so can be treated as a
sample (PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE). Custom data can be incorporated in the
sample as raw_data (PERF_SAMPLE_RAW).

However a means of identifying the raw data format is needed. That will
be done by synthesizing an attribute for it.

So add an attribute type for custom synthesized events.  Different
synthesized events will be identified by the attribute 'config'.

Committer notes:

Start those PERF_TYPE_ after the PMU range, i.e. after (INT_MAX + 1U),
i.e. after perf_pmu_register() -> idr_alloc(end=0).

19508c048a perf tests: Add platform dependency to test 15
This patch adds platform dependency into the test case 15
(perf_event_attr). It is based on a suggestion from Jiri Olsa.

Add a new optional attribute named 'arch' in the [config] section of the
test case file. It is a comma separated list of architecture names this
test can be executed on. For example:

  arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc

If this attribute is missing the test is executed on any platform.  This
does not break existing behavior.

The values listed for this attribute should be identical to uname -m
output.

If the list starts with an exclamation mark (!) the comparison is
inverted, for example for

  arch = !s390x,ppc

the test is not executed on s390x or ppc platforms.  The exclamation
mark must be at the beginnning of the list.

Here is an example debug output:

  [root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C2
  arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc
  [root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
    -d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1

provides the following output:

  running './tests/attr//test-stat-C1'
  test limitation 'x86_64,alpha,ppc' <--- new
    loading expected events
      Event event:base-stat
        fd = 1
        group_fd = -1
        .....

Here is the output when a test is skipped:

  [root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C1
  arch = !s390x
  [root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
    -d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1

provides the following output:

test limitation '!s390x' <--- new

skipped [s390x] './tests/attr//test-stat-C1' <--- new

The test is skipped with return code 0.

588726d3ec lightnvm: pblk: fail gracefully on irrec. error
Due to user writes being decoupled from media writes because of the need
of an intermediate write buffer, irrecoverable media write errors lead
to pblk stalling; user writes fill up the buffer and end up in an
infinite retry loop.

In order to let user writes fail gracefully, it is necessary for pblk to
keep track of its own internal state and prevent further writes from
being placed into the write buffer.

This patch implements a state machine to keep track of internal errors
and, in case of failure, fail further user writes in an standard way.
Depending on the type of error, pblk will do its best to persist
buffered writes (which are already acknowledged) and close down on a
graceful manner. This way, data might be recovered by re-instantiating
pblk. Such state machine paves out the way for a state-based FTL log.

b20ba1bc74 lightnvm: pblk: redesign GC algorithm
At the moment, in order to get enough read parallelism, we have recycled
several lines at the same time. This approach has proven not to work
well when reaching capacity, since we end up mixing valid data from all
lines, thus not maintaining a sustainable free/recycled line ratio.

The new design, relies on a two level workqueue mechanism. In the first
level, we read the metadata for a number of lines based on the GC list
they reside on (this is governed by the number of valid sectors in each
line). In the second level, we recycle a single line at a time. Here, we
issue reads in parallel, while a single GC write thread places data in
the write buffer. This design allows to (i) only move data from one line
at a time, thus maintaining a sane free/recycled ration and (ii)
maintain the GC writer busy with recycled data.

d45ebd470b lightnvm: pblk: choose optimal victim GC line
At the moment, we separate the closed lines on three different list
based on their number of valid sectors. GC recycles lines from each list
based on capacity. Lines from each list are taken in a FIFO fashion.

Since the number of lines is limited (it corresponds to the number of
blocks in a LUN, which is somewhere between 1000-2000), we can afford
scanning the lists to choose the optimal line to be recycled. This helps
specially in lines with a high number of valid sectors.

If the number of blocks per LUN increases, we will consider a more
efficient policy.

dd2a434373 lightnvm: pblk: sched. metadata on write thread
At the moment, line metadata is persisted on a separate work queue, that
is kicked each time that a line is closed. The assumption when designing
this was that freeing the write thread from creating a new write request
was better than the potential impact of writes colliding on the media
(user I/O and metadata I/O). Experimentation has proven that this
assumption is wrong; collision can cause up to 25% of bandwidth and
introduce long tail latencies on the write thread, which potentially
cause user write threads to spend more time spinning to get a free entry
on the write buffer.

This patch moves the metadata logic to the write thread. When a line is
closed, remaining metadata is written in memory and is placed on a
metadata queue. The write thread then takes the metadata corresponding
to the previous line, creates the write request and schedules it to
minimize collisions on the media. Using this approach, we see that we
can saturate the media's bandwidth, which helps reducing both write
latencies and the spinning time for user writer threads.
