Provide necessary infrastructure to handle ctr flags and their names and cleanup setting ti->error: - comment constructor flags - introduce constructor flag manipulation - introduce ti_error_*() functions to simplify setting the error message (use in other targets?) - introduce array to hold ctr flag <-> flag name mapping - introduce argument name by flag functions for that array - use those functions throughout the ctr call path Signed-off-by:

- use dm_arg_set API in ctr and its callees parse_raid_params() and dev_parms() - introduce _in_range() function to check a value is in a [ min, max ] range; this is to support more callers in parsing parameters etc. in the future - correct comment on MAX_RAID_DEVICES Signed-off-by:

Allow a user to specify an optional feature 'queue_mode <mode>' where <mode> may be "bio", "rq" or "mq" -- which corresponds to bio-based, request_fn rq-based, and blk-mq rq-based respectively. If the queue_mode feature isn't specified the default for the "multipath" target is still "rq" but if dm_mod.use_blk_mq is set to Y it'll default to mode "mq". This new queue_mode feature introduces the ability for each multipath device to have its own queue_mode (whereas before this feature all multipath devices effectively had to have the same queue_mode). This commit also goes a long way to eliminate the awkward (ab)use of DM_TYPE_*, the associated filter_md_type() and other relatively fragile and difficult to maintain code. Signed-off-by: -

Add "multipath-bio" target that offers a bio-based multipath target as an alternative to the request-based "multipath" target -- but in a following commit "multipath-bio" will immediately be replaced by a new "queue_mode" feature for the "multipath" target which will allow bio-based mode to be selected. When DM multipath was originally converted from bio-based to request-based the motivation for the change was better dynamic load balancing (by leveraging block core's request-based IO schedulers, for merging and sorting, _before_ DM multipath would make the decision on where to steer the IO -- based on path load and/or availability). More background is available in this "Request-based Device-mapper multipath and Dynamic load balancing" paper: https://www.kernel.org/doc/ols/2007/ols2007v2-pages-235-244.pdf But we've now come full circle where significantly faster storage devices no longer need IOs to be made larger to drive optimal IO performance. And even if they do there have been changes to the block and filesystem layers that help ensure upper layers are constructing larger IOs. In addition, SCSI's differentiated IO errors will propagate through to bio-based IO completion hooks -- so that eliminates another historic justiciation for request-based DM multipath. Lastly, the block layer's immutable biovec changes have made bio cloning cheaper than it has ever been; whereas request cloning is still relatively expensive (both on a CPU usage and memory footprint level). As such, bio-based DM multipath offers the promise of a more efficient IO path for high IOPs devices that are, or will be, emerging. Signed-off-by:

Add some seperation between bio-based and request-based DM core code. 'struct mapped_device' and other DM core only structures and functions have been moved to dm-core.h and all relevant DM core .c files have been updated to include dm-core.h rather than dm.h DM targets should _never_ include dm-core.h!

No one need this macro now, so remove it. Basically only how many bvecs in one bio matters instead of how many bytes in this bio. The motivation is for supporting multipage bvecs, in which we only know what the max count of bvecs is supported in the bio. Reviewed-by:

If we're queuing REQ_PRIO IO and the task is running at an idle IO class, then temporarily boost the priority. This prevents livelocks due to priority inversion, when a low priority task is holding file system resources while attempting to do IO. An example of that is shown below. An ioniced idle task is holding the directory mutex, while a normal priority task is trying to do a directory lookup.

If ->queue_rq() returns BLK_MQ_RQ_QUEUE_OK, we use continue and skip over the rest of the loop body. However, dptr is assigned later in the loop body, and the BLK_MQ_RQ_QUEUE_OK case is exactly the case that we'd want it for. NVMe isn't actually using BLK_MQ_F_DEFER_ISSUE yet, nor is any other in-tree driver, but if the code's going to be there, it might as well work.

This was missed from my last patchset. This patch has ext4 crypto code use the bio op helper to set the operation. The operation (discard, write, writesame, etc) is now defined seperately from the other REQ bits. They still share the bi_rw field to save space, so we use these helpers so modules do not have to worry about setting/overwriting info. Jens, I am not sure how you handle patches on top of patches in the next branches.
