blkg (blkcg_gq) currently is created by blkcg policies invoking
blkg_lookup_create() which ends up repeating about the same code in
different policies. Theoretically, this can avoid the overhead of
looking and/or creating blkg's if blkcg is enabled but no policy is in
use; however, the cost of blkg lookup / creation is very low
especially if only the root blkcg is in use which is highly likely if
no blkcg policy is in active use - it boils down to a single very
predictable conditional and surrounding RCU protection.
This patch consolidates blkg creation to a new function
blkcg_bio_issue_check() which is called during bio issue from
generic_make_request_checks(). blkcg_bio_issue_check() is now the
only function which tries to create missing blkg's. The subsequent
policy and request_list operations just perform blkg_lookup() and if
missing falls back to the root.
* blk_get_rl() no longer tries to create blkg. It uses blkg_lookup()
instead of blkg_lookup_create().
* blk_throtl_bio() is now called from blkcg_bio_issue_check() with rcu
read locked and blkg already looked up. Both throtl_lookup_tg() and
throtl_lookup_create_tg() are dropped.
* cfq is similarly updated. cfq_lookup_create_cfqg() is replaced with
cfq_lookup_cfqg()which uses blkg_lookup().
This consolidates blkg handling and avoids unnecessary blkg creation
retries under memory pressure. In addition, this provides a common
bio entry point into blkcg where things like common accounting can be
performed.

If a queue is bypassing, all blkcg policies should become noops but
blk-throttle wasn't. It only became noop if the queue was dying.
While this wouldn't lead to an oops as falling back to the root blkg
is safe in this case, this can be a bit surprising - a bypassing queue
could still be applying throttle limits.
Fix it by removing blk_queue_dying() test in throtl_lookup_create_tg()
and testing blk_queue_bypass() in blk_throtl_bio() and bypassing
before doing anything else.

blkg_lookup() checks whether the target queue is bypassing and, if
not, calls __blkg_lookup() which first checks the lookup hint and then
performs radix tree walk. The operations upto hint checking are
trivial and there are many users of this function. This patch inlines
blkg_lookup() and the fast path part of __blkg_lookup(). The radix
tree lookup and hint update are now in blkg_lookup_slowpath().
This will help consolidating blkg handling by easing moving root blkcg
short-circuit to inlined lookup fast path.

Each active policy has a cpd (blkcg_policy_data) on each blkcg. The
cpd's were allocated by blkcg core and each policy could request to
allocate extra space at the end by setting blkcg_policy->cpd_size
larger than the size of cpd.
This is a bit unusual but blkg (blkcg_gq) policy data used to be

policy data switched to alloc/free callbacks.
This patch makes similar changes to cpd handling.
blkcg_policy->cpd_alloc/free_fn() are added to replace ->cpd_size. As
cpd allocation is now done from policy side, it can simply allocate a

The newly added ->pd_alloc_fn() and ->pd_free_fn() deal with pd
(blkg_policy_data) while the older ones use blkg (blkcg_gq). As using
blkg doesn't make sense for ->pd_alloc_fn() and after allocation pd
can always be mapped to blkg and given that these are policy-specific
methods, it makes sense to converge on pd.
This patch makes all methods deal with pd instead of blkg. Most

sites now test whether pd exists instead of policy state for
consistency. This shouldn't cause any behavioral differences.

Because percpu allocator couldn't do non-blocking allocations,
blk-throttle was forced to implement an ad-hoc asynchronous allocation
mechanism for its percpu stats for cases where blkg's (blkcg_gq's) are
allocated from an IO path without sleepable context.
Now that percpu allocator can handle gfp_mask and blkg_policy_data
alloc / free are handled by policy methods, the ad-hoc asynchronous
allocation mechanism can be replaced with direct allocation from
tg_stats_alloc_fn(). Rit it out.

A blkg (blkcg_gq) represents the relationship between a cgroup and
request_queue. Each active policy has a pd (blkg_policy_data) on each
blkg. The pd's were allocated by blkcg core and each policy could
request to allocate extra space at the end by setting
blkcg_policy->pd_size larger than the size of pd.
This is a bit unusual but was done this way mostly to simplify error
handling and all the existing use cases could be handled this way;
however, this is becoming too restrictive now that percpu memory can
be allocated without blocking.
This introduces two new mandatory blkcg_policy methods - pd_alloc_fn()
and pd_free_fn() - which are used to allocate and release pd for a
given policy. As pd allocation is now done from policy side, it can
simply allocate a larger area which embeds pd at the beginning. This

When a policy gets activated, it needs to allocate and install its
policy data on all existing blkg's (blkcg_gq's). Because blkg
iteration is protected by a spinlock, it currently counts the total
number of blkg's in the system, allocates the matching number of
policy data on a list and installs them during a single iteration.
This can be simplified by using speculative GFP_NOWAIT allocations
while iterating and falling back to a preallocated policy data on
failure. If the preallocated one has already been consumed, it
releases the lock, preallocate with GFP_KERNEL and then restarts the
iteration. This can be a bit more expensive than before but policy
activation is a very cold path and shouldn't matter.

Up until now, all async IOs were queued to async queues which are
shared across the whole request_queue, which means that blkcg resource
control is completely void on async IOs including all writeback IOs.
It was done this way because writeback didn't support writeback and
there was no way of telling which writeback IO belonged to which
cgroup; however, writeback recently became cgroup aware and writeback
bio's are sent down properly tagged with the blkcg's to charge them
against.
This patch makes async cfq_queues per-cfq_cgroup instead of
per-cfq_data so that each async IO is charged to the blkcg that it was
tagged for instead of unconditionally attributing it to root.
* cfq_data->async_cfqq and ->async_idle_cfqq are moved to cfq_group
and alloc / destroy paths are updated accordingly.
* cfq_link_cfqq_cfqg() no longer overrides @cfqg to root for async
queues.
* check_blkcg_changed() now also invalidates async queues as they no
longer stay the same across cgroups.
After this patch, cfq's proportional IO control through blkio.weight
works correctly when cgroup writeback is in use.

cfq_find_alloc_queue() checks whether a queue actually needs to be
allocated, which is unnecessary as its sole caller, cfq_get_queue(),
only calls it if so. Also, the oom queue fallback logic is scattered
between cfq_get_queue() and cfq_find_alloc_queue(). There really
isn't much going on in the latter and things can be made simpler by
folding it into cfq_get_queue().
This patch collapses cfq_find_alloc_queue() into cfq_get_queue(). The
change is fairly straight-forward with one exception - async_cfqq is
now initialized to NULL and the "!is_sync" test in the last if
conditional is replaced with "async_cfqq" test. This is because gcc
(5.1.1) gets confused for some reason and warns that async_cfqq may be
used uninitialized otherwise. Oh well, the code isn't necessarily
worse this way.

Even when allocations fail, cfq_find_alloc_queue() always returns a
valid cfq_queue by falling back to the oom cfq_queue. As such, there
isn't much point in taking @gfp_mask and trying "harder" if __GFP_WAIT
is set. GFP_NOWAIT allocations don't fail often and even when they do
the degraded behavior is acceptable and temporary.
After all, the only reason get_request(), which ultimately determines
the gfp_mask, cares about __GFP_WAIT is to guarantee request
allocation, assuming IO forward progress, for callers which are
willing to wait. There's no reason for cfq_find_alloc_queue() to
behave differently on __GFP_WAIT when it already has a fallback
mechanism.
Remove @gfp_mask from cfq_find_alloc_queue() and propagate the changes
to its callers. This simplifies the function quite a bit and will
help making async queues per-cfq_group.

blkcg performs several allocations to track IOs per cgroup and enforce

x86/mm: Add parenthesis for TLB tracepoint size calculation
efi: Handle memory error structures produced based on old versions of standard
Toshi explains:
"No, the default values need to be set to the fallback types,
i.e. minimal supported mode. For WC and WT, UC is the fallback type.
When PAT is disabled, pat_init() does update the tables below to
enable WT per the default BIOS setup. However, when PAT is enabled,
but CPU has PAT -errata, WT falls back to UC per the default values."
