This device mapper "unstriped" target remaps and unstripes I/O so it is issued solely on a single drive in a HW RAID0 or dm-striped target. In a 4 drive HW RAID0 the striped target exposes 1/4th of the LBA range as a virtual drive. Each I/O to that virtual drive will only be issued to the 1 drive that was selected of the 4 drives in the HW RAID0. This unstriped target is most useful for Intel NVMe drives that have multiple cores but that do not have firmware control to pin separate LBA ranges to each discrete cpu core.

Trying to do both SCSI and NVMe bio-based handling with branching in the same common code has proven too tedious on a code maintenance level. In addition it slightly hurts IO performance. Fix this by factoring out __map_bio() and __map_bio_nvme(). Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

This DM multipath NVMe bio-based support requires CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH to not be set. In the future hopefully NVMe multipath and DM multipath can co-exist more seemlessly. But as is, if CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH=Y then all the individal NVMe paths will remain hidden to upper layers and as such DM multipath will not be able to manage them. Though NVMe's native multipathing doesn't multipath namespaces across subsystems; so technically a user _could_ use CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH=Y and also use DM multipath to multipath across subsystems.

Upper level bio-based drivers that stack immediately ontop of NVMe can leverage direct_make_request(). In addition DM's NVMe bio-based will initially only ever have one NVMe device that it submits IO to at a time. There is no splitting needed. Enhance DM core so that DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED's IO submission takes advantage of both of these characteristics. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

If dm_table_determine_type() establishes DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED then all devices in the DM table do not support partial completions. Also, the table has a single immutable target that doesn't require DM core to split bios. This will enable adding NVMe optimizations to bio-based DM. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

No apparent need to generic_start_io_acct() until before the IO is ready for submission. start_io_acct() is the proper place to do this accounting -- it is also where DM accounts for pending IO and, if enabled, starts dm-stats accounting. Replace start_io_acct()'s part_round_stats() with generic_start_io_acct(). This eliminates needing to take part_stat_lock() multiple times when starting an IO on bio-based devices.

Eliminates need for a separate mempool to allocate 'struct dm_io' objects from. As such, it saves an extra mempool allocation for each original bio that DM core is issued. This complicates the per-bio-data accessor functions by needing to conditonally add extra padding to get to a target's per-bio-data. But in the end this provides a decent performance improvement for all bio-based DM devices. On an NVMe-loop based testbed to a ramdisk (~3100 MB/s): bio-based DM linear performance improved by 2% (went from 2665 to 2777 MB/s). Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

DM targets can request multiple bios be sent to them by DM core (see: num_{flush,discard,write_same,write_zeroes}_bios). But until now these bios were allocated in an unsafe manner than could potentially exhaust the DM device's bioset -- in the face of multiple threads each trying to do multiple allocations from the same DM device's bioset. Fix __send_duplicate_bios() by using the new alloc_multiple_bios(). The allocation strategy used by alloc_multiple_bios() models that used by dm-crypt.c:crypt_alloc_buffer(). Neil Brown initially proposed this fix but the implementation has been revised enough that it inappropriate to attribute the entirety of it to him.

No DM target provides num_write_bios and none has since dm-cache's brief use in 2013. Having the possibility of num_write_bios > 1 complicates bio allocation. So remove the interface and assume there is only one bio needed. If a target ever needs more, it must provide a suitable bioset and allocate itself based on its particular needs.

A dm device can, in general, represent a tree of targets, each of which handles a sub-range of the range of blocks handled by the parent. The bio sequencing managed by generic_make_request() requires that bios are generated and handled in a depth-first manner. Each call to a make_request_fn() may submit bios to a single member device, and may submit bios for a reduced region of the same device as the make_request_fn. In particular, any bios submitted to member devices must be expected to be processed in order, so a later one must never wait for an earlier one. This ordering is usually achieved by using bio_split() to reduce a bio to a size that can be completely handled by one target, and resubmitting the remainder to the originating device. bio_queue_split() shows the canonical approach. dm doesn't follow this approach, largely because it has needed to split bios since long before bio_split() was available. It currently can submit bios to separate targets within the one dm_make_request() call. Dependencies between these targets, as can happen with dm-snap, can cause deadlocks if either bios gets stuck behind the other in the queues managed by generic_make_request(). This requires the 'rescue' functionality provided by dm_offload_{start,end}. Some of this requirement can be removed by changing the order of bio submission to follow the canonical approach. That is, if dm finds that it needs to split a bio, the remainder should be sent to generic_make_request() rather than being handled immediately. This delays the handling until the first part is completely processed, so the deadlock problems do not occur. __split_and_process_bio() can be called both from dm_make_request() and from dm_wq_work(). When called from dm_wq_work() the current approach is perfectly satisfactory as each bio will be processed immediately. When called from dm_make_request(), current->bio_list will be non-NULL, and in this case it is best to create a separate "clone" bio for the remainder. When we use bio_clone_bioset() to split off the front part of a bio and chain the two together and submit the remainder to generic_make_request(), it is important that the newly allocated bio is used as the head to be processed immediately, and the original bio gets "bio_advance()"d and sent to generic_make_request() as the remainder. Otherwise, if the newly allocated bio is used as the remainder, and if it then needs to be split again, then the next bio_clone_bioset() call will be made while holding a reference a bio (result of the first clone) from the same bioset. This can potentially exhaust the bioset mempool and result in a memory allocation deadlock. Note that there is no race caused by reassigning cio.io->bio after already calling __map_bio(). This bio will only be dereferenced again after dec_pending() has found io->io_count to be zero, and this cannot happen before the dec_pending() call at the end of __split_and_process_bio(). To provide the clone bio when splitting, we use q->bio_split. This was previously being freed by bio-based dm to avoid having excess rescuer threads. As bio_split bio sets no longer create rescuer threads, there is little cost and much gain from restoring the q->bio_split bio set.

The BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag is only needed when a make_request_fn might do two allocations from the one bioset, and the second one could block until the first bio completes. dm_io() is called from make_request_fn() context. The closest it comes to multiple allocations is in chunk_io() in dm-snap-persistent. But there the code uses a separate thread to avoid problems. So BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER is not needed.

In order to avoid redoing synchronization/recovery/reshape partially, the raid set got frozen until after all passed in table line flags had been cleared. The related table reload sequence had to be precisely followed, or reshaping may lead to data corruption caused by the active mapping carrying on with a reshape when the inactive mapping already had retrieved a stale reshape position. Harden by retrieving the actual resync/recovery/reshape position during resume whilst the active table is suspended thus avoiding to keep the raid set frozen altogether. This prevents superfluous redoing of an already resynchronized or recovered segment and, most importantly, potential for redoing of an already reshaped segment causing data corruption.
