The queue mapping of type poll only exists when set->map[HCTX_TYPE_POLL].nr_queues is bigger than zero, so enhance the constraint by checking .nr_queues of type poll before enabling IO poll. Otherwise IO race & timeout can be observed when running block/007.

There's a single user of this function, dm, and dm just wants to check if IO is inflight, not that it's just allocated. This fixes a hang with srp/002 in blktests with dm, where it tries to suspend but waits for inflight IO to finish first. As it checks for just allocated requests, this fails.

From 7e849dd9 ("nvme-pci: don't share queue maps"), the mapping table won't be initialized actually if map->nr_queues is zero, so we can't use blk_mq_map_queue_type() to retrieve hctx any more. This way still may cause broken mapping, fix it by skipping zero-queues maps in blk_mq_map_swqueue().

The blk-iolatency controller measures the time from rq_qos_throttle() to rq_qos_done_bio() and attributes this time to the first bio that needs to create the request. This means if a bio is plug-mergeable or bio-mergeable, it gets to bypass the blk-iolatency controller. The recent series [1], to tag all bios w/ blkgs undermined how iolatency was determining which bios it was charging and should process in rq_qos_done_bio(). Because all bios are being tagged, this caused the atomic_t for the struct rq_wait inflight count to underflow and result in a stall. This patch adds a new flag BIO_TRACKED to let controllers know that a bio is going through the rq_qos path. blk-iolatency now checks if this flag is set to see if it should process the bio in rq_qos_done_bio(). Overloading BLK_QUEUE_ENTERED works, but makes the flag rules confusing. BIO_THROTTLED was another candidate, but the flag is set for all bios that have gone through blk-throttle code. Overloading a flag comes with the burden of making sure that when either implementation changes, a change in setting rules for one doesn't cause a bug in the other. So here, we unfortunately opt for adding a new flag.

When a request is added to rq list of sw queue(ctx), the rq may be from a different type of hctx, especially after multi queue mapping is introduced. So when dispach request from sw queue via blk_mq_flush_busy_ctxs() or blk_mq_dequeue_from_ctx(), one request belonging to other queue type of hctx can be dispatched to current hctx in case that read queue or poll queue is enabled. This patch fixes this issue by introducing per-queue-type list.

For a zoned block device using mq-deadline, if a write request for a zone is received while another write was already dispatched for the same zone, dd_dispatch_request() will return NULL and the newly inserted write request is kept in the scheduler queue waiting for the ongoing zone write to complete. With this behavior, when no other request has been dispatched, rq_list in blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests() is empty and blk_mq_sched_mark_restart_hctx() not called. This in turn leads to __blk_mq_free_request() call of blk_mq_sched_restart() to not run the queue when the already dispatched write request completes. The newly dispatched request stays stuck in the scheduler queue until eventually another request is submitted. This problem does not affect SCSI disk as the SCSI stack handles queue restart on request completion. However, this problem is can be triggered the nullblk driver with zoned mode enabled. Fix this by always requesting a queue restart in dd_dispatch_request() if no request was dispatched while WRITE requests are queued.

Now we only export hctx->type via sysfs, and there isn't such info in hctx entry under debugfs. We often use debugfs only to diagnose queue mapping issue, so add the support in debugfs. Queue mapping becomes a bit more complicated after multiple queue mapping is supported, we may write blktest to verify if queue mapping is valid based on blk-mq-debugfs. Given not necessary to export hctx->type twice, so remove the export from sysfs.

blk_mq_init_queue() will not return NULL pointer to its caller, so it's better to replace IS_ERR_OR_NULL using IS_ERR in loop_add(). If in the future things change to check NULL pointer inside loop_add(), we should return -ENOMEM as return code instead of PTR_ERR(NULL).

Just set bypass to 'false' and let blk_mq_try_issue_directly handle them totally.

Merge blk_mq_try_issue_directly and __blk_mq_try_issue_directly into one interface to unify the interfaces to issue requests directly. The merged interface takes over the requests totally, it could insert, end or do nothing based on the return value of .queue_rq and 'bypass' parameter. Then caller needn't any other handling any more and then code could be cleaned up. And also the commit c616cbee ( blk-mq: punt failed direct issue to dispatch list ) always inserts requests to hctx dispatch list whenever get a BLK_STS_RESOURCE or BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE, this is overkill and will harm the merging. We just need to do that for the requests that has been through .queue_rq. This patch also could fix this.

Because CUTOFF_WRITEBACK is defined as 40, so before the changes of dynamic cutoff writeback values, writeback_percent is limited to [0, CUTOFF_WRITEBACK]. Any value larger than CUTOFF_WRITEBACK will be fixed up to 40. Now cutof writeback limit is a dynamic value bch_cutoff_writeback, so the range of writeback_percent can be a more flexible range as [0, bch_cutoff_writeback]. The flexibility is, it can be expended to a larger or smaller range than [0, 40], depends on how value bch_cutoff_writeback is specified. The default value is still strongly recommended to most of users for most of workloads. But for people who want to do research on bcache writeback perforamnce tuning, they may have chance to specify more flexible writeback_percent in range [0, 70].

Currently the cutoff writeback and cutoff writeback sync thresholds are defined by CUTOFF_WRITEBACK (40) and CUTOFF_WRITEBACK_SYNC (70) as static values. Most of time these they work fine, but when people want to do research on bcache writeback mode performance tuning, there is no chance to modify the soft and hard cutoff writeback values. This patch introduces two module parameters bch_cutoff_writeback_sync and bch_cutoff_writeback which permit people to tune the values when loading bcache.ko. If they are not specified by module loading, current values CUTOFF_WRITEBACK_SYNC and CUTOFF_WRITEBACK will be used as default and nothing changes. When people want to tune this two values, - cutoff_writeback can be set in range [1, 70] - cutoff_writeback_sync can be set in range [1, 90] - cutoff_writeback always <= cutoff_writeback_sync The default values are strongly recommended to most of users for most of workloads. Anyway, if people wants to take their own risk to do research on new writeback cutoff tuning for their own workload, now they can make it.

The option gc_after_writeback is disabled by default, because garbage collection will discard SSD data which drops cached data. Echo 1 into /sys/fs/bcache/<UUID>/internal/gc_after_writeback will enable this option, which wakes up gc thread when writeback accomplished and all cached data is clean. This option is helpful for people who cares writing performance more. In heavy writing workload, all cached data can be clean only happens when writeback thread cleans all cached data in I/O idle time. In such situation a following gc running may help to shrink bcache B+ tree and discard more clean data, which may be helpful for future writing requests. If you are not sure whether this is helpful for your own workload, please leave it as disabled by default. Signed-off-by: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Garbage collection thread starts to work when c->sectors_to_gc is negative value, otherwise nothing will happen even the gc thread is woken up by wake_up_gc(). force_wake_up_gc() sets c->sectors_to_gc to -1 before calling wake_up_gc(), then gc thread may have chance to run if no one else sets c->sectors_to_gc to a positive value before gc_should_run(). This routine can be called where the gc thread is woken up and required to run in force. Signed-off-by: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

A fresh backing device is not attached to any cache_set, and has no writeback kthread created until first attached to some cache_set. But bch_cached_dev_writeback_init run " dc->writeback_running = true; WARN_ON(test_and_clear_bit(BCACHE_DEV_WB_RUNNING, &dc->disk.flags)); " for any newly formatted backing devices. For a fresh standalone backing device, we can get something like following even if no writeback kthread created: ------------------------ /sys/block/bcache0/bcache# cat writeback_running 1 /sys/block/bcache0/bcache# cat writeback_rate_debug rate: 512.0k/sec dirty: 0.0k target: 0.0k proportional: 0.0k integral: 0.0k change: 0.0k/sec next io: -15427384ms The none ZERO fields are misleading as no alive writeback kthread yet. Set dc->writeback_running false as no writeback thread created in bch_cached_dev_writeback_init(). We have writeback thread created and woken up in bch_cached_dev_writeback _start(). Set dc->writeback_running true before bch_writeback_queue() called, as a writeback thread will check if dc->writeback_running is true before writing back dirty data, and hung if false detected. After the change, we can get the following output for a fresh standalone backing device: ----------------------- /sys/block/bcache0/bcache$ cat writeback_running 0 /sys/block/bcache0/bcache# cat writeback_rate_debug rate: 0.0k/sec dirty: 0.0k target: 0.0k proportional: 0.0k integral: 0.0k change: 0.0k/sec next io: 0ms v1 -> v2: Set dc->writeback_running before bch_writeback_queue() called, Signed-off-by: Shenghui Wang <shhuiw@foxmail.com> Signed-off-by: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
