      blk-mq: Make it safe to use RCU to iterate over blk_mq_tag_set.tag_list · 705cda97
      Bart Van Assche authored
      Since the next patch in this series will use RCU to iterate over
      tag_list, make this safe. Add lockdep_assert_held() statements
      in functions that iterate over tag_list to make clear that using
      list_for_each_entry() instead of list_for_each_entry_rcu() is
      fine in these functions.

      blk-mq-sched: provide hooks for initializing hardware queue data · ee056f98
      Omar Sandoval authored
      Schedulers need to be informed when a hardware queue is added or removed
      at runtime so they can allocate/free per-hardware queue data. So,
      replace the blk_mq_sched_init_hctx_data() helper, which only makes sense
      at init time, with .init_hctx() and .exit_hctx() hooks.

      blk-mq: Restart a single queue if tag sets are shared · 6d8c6c0f
      Bart Van Assche authored
      To improve scalability, if hardware queues are shared, restart
      a single hardware queue in round-robin fashion. Rename
      blk_mq_sched_restart_queues() to reflect the new semantics.
      Remove blk_mq_sched_mark_restart_queue() because this function
      has no callers. Remove flag QUEUE_FLAG_RESTART because this
      patch removes the code that uses this flag.

      dm rq: Avoid that request processing stalls sporadically · 6077c2d7
      Bart Van Assche authored
      While running the srp-test software I noticed that request
      processing stalls sporadically at the beginning of a test, namely
      when mkfs is run against a dm-mpath device. Every time when that
      happened the following command was sufficient to resume request
      processing:
      
          echo run >/sys/kernel/debug/block/dm-0/state
      
      This patch avoids that such request processing stalls occur. The
      test I ran is as follows:
      
          while srp-test/run_tests -d -r 30 -t 02-mq; do :; done

      scsi: Avoid that SCSI queues get stuck · 36e3cf27
      Bart Van Assche authored
      If a .queue_rq() function returns BLK_MQ_RQ_QUEUE_BUSY then the block
      driver that implements that function is responsible for rerunning the
      hardware queue once requests can be queued again successfully.
      
      commit 52d7f1b5 ("blk-mq: Avoid that requeueing starts stopped
      queues") removed the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call from scsi_queue_rq()
      for the BLK_MQ_RQ_QUEUE_BUSY case. Hence change all calls to functions
      that are intended to rerun a busy queue such that these examine all
      hardware queues instead of only stopped queues.
      
      Since no other functions than scsi_internal_device_block() and
      scsi_internal_device_unblock() should ever stop or restart a SCSI
      queue, change the blk_mq_delay_queue() call into a
      blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() call.
      
      Fixes: commit 52d7f1b5 ("blk-mq: Avoid that requeueing starts stopped queues")

      block: trace completion of all bios. · fbbaf700
      NeilBrown authored
      Currently only dm and md/raid5 bios trigger
      trace_block_bio_complete().  Now that we have bio_chain() and
      bio_inc_remaining(), it is not possible, in general, for a driver to
      know when the bio is really complete.  Only bio_endio() knows that.
      
      So move the trace_block_bio_complete() call to bio_endio().
      
      Now trace_block_bio_complete() pairs with trace_block_bio_queue().
      Any bio for which a 'queue' event is traced, will subsequently
      generate a 'complete' event.
      
      There are a few cases where completion tracing is not wanted.
      1/ If blk_update_request() has already generated a completion
         trace event at the 'request' level, there is no point generating
         one at the bio level too.  In this case the bi_sector and bi_size
         will have changed, so the bio level event would be wrong
      
      2/ If the bio hasn't actually been queued yet, but is being aborted
         early, then a trace event could be confusing.  Some filesystems
         call bio_endio() but do not want tracing.
      
      3/ The bio_integrity code interposes itself by replacing bi_end_io,
         then restoring it and calling bio_endio() again.  This would produce
         two identical trace events if left like that.
      
      To handle these, we introduce a flag BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION and only
      produce the trace event when this is set.
      We address point 1 above by clearing the flag in blk_update_request().
      We address point 2 above by only setting the flag when
      generic_make_request() is called.
      We address point 3 above by clearing the flag after generating a
      completion event.
      
      When bio_split() is used on a bio, particularly in blk_queue_split(),
      there is an extra complication.  A new bio is split off the front, and
      may be handle directly without going through generic_make_request().
      The old bio, which has been advanced, is passed to
      generic_make_request(), so it will trigger a trace event a second
      time.
      Probably the best result when a split happens is to see a single
      'queue' event for the whole bio, then multiple 'complete' events - one
      for each component.  To achieve this was can:
      - copy the BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION flag to the new bio in bio_split()
      - avoid generating a 'queue' event if BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION is already set.
      This way, the split-off bio won't create a queue event, the original
      won't either even if it re-submitted to generic_make_request(),
      but both will produce completion events, each for their own range.
      
      So if generic_make_request() is called (which generates a QUEUED
      event), then bi_endio() will create a single COMPLETE event for each
      range that the bio is split into, unless the driver has explicitly
      requested it not to.

      block: simple improvements for bio->flags · dbde775c
      NeilBrown authored
      The comment for the 'flags' field of 'bio' mentions
      "command" which is no longer stored there, and doesn't
      mention the bvec pool number, which is.
      
      BIO_RESET_BITS is set in such a way that it would need to be
      updated if new bits were added, which is easy to miss.
      
      BVEC_POOL_BITS is larger than needed.  The BVEC_POOL_IDX()
      ranges from 0 to 6, so 3 bits are sufficient.
      
      This patch make improvements in each of these areas.

      blk-mq: remap queues when adding/removing hardware queues · ebe8bddb
      Omar Sandoval authored
      blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() used to remap hardware queues, which is the
      behavior that drivers expect. However, commit 4e68a011 changed
      blk_mq_queue_reinit() to not remap queues for the case of CPU
      hotplugging, inadvertently making blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() not remap
      queues as well. This breaks, for example, NBD's multi-connection mode,
      leaving the added hardware queues unused. Fix it by making
      blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() explicitly remap the queues.

      Omar Sandoval authored
      In elevator_switch(), if blk_mq_init_sched() fails, we attempt to fall

      blk-mq: use the right hctx when getting a driver tag fails · 81380ca1
      Omar Sandoval authored
      While dispatching requests, if we fail to get a driver tag, we mark the
      hardware queue as waiting for a tag and put the requests on a
      hctx->dispatch list to be run later when a driver tag is freed. However,
      blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() may dispatch requests from multiple hardware
      queues if using a single-queue scheduler with a multiqueue device. If
      blk_mq_get_driver_tag() fails, it doesn't update the hardware queue we
      are processing. This means we end up using the hardware queue of the
      previous request, which may or may not be the same as that of the
      current request. If it isn't, the wrong hardware queue will end up
      waiting for a tag, and the requests will be on the wrong dispatch list,
      leading to a hang.
      
      The fix is twofold:
      
      1. Make sure we save which hardware queue we were trying to get a
         request for in blk_mq_get_driver_tag() regardless of whether it
         succeeds or not.
      2. Make blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() take a request_queue instead of a
         blk_mq_hw_queue to make it clear that it must handle multiple
         hardware queues, since I've already messed this up on a couple of
         occasions.
      
      This didn't appear in testing with nvme and mq-deadline because nvme has
      more driver tags than the default number of scheduler tags. However,
      with the blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() fix, it showed up with nbd.

      cfq: Disable writeback throttling by default · 142bbdfc
      Jan Kara authored
      Writeback throttling does not play well with CFQ since that also tries
      to throttle async writes. As a result async writeback can get starved in
      presence of readers. As an example take a benchmark simulating
      postgreSQL database running over a standard rotating SATA drive. There
      are 16 processes doing random reads from a huge file (2*machine memory),
      1 process doing random writes to the huge file and calling fsync once
      per 50000 writes and 1 process doing sequential 8k writes to a
      relatively small file wrapping around at the end of the file and calling
      fsync every 5 writes. Under this load read latency easily exceeds the
      target latency of 75 ms (just because there are so many reads happening
      against a relatively slow disk) and thus writeback is throttled to a
      point where only 1 write request is allowed at a time. Blktrace data
      then looks like:

      So we can see a Q event for a write request, then IO is blocked by
      writeback throttling and G and I events for the request happen only once
      other writeback IO is completed. Thus CFQ always sees only one write
      request. When it sees it, it queues the async queue behind all the read
      queues and the async queue gets scheduled after about one second. When
      it is scheduled, that one request gets dispatched and async queue is
      expired as it has no more requests to submit. Overall we submit about
      one write request per second.
      
      Although this scheduling is beneficial for read latency, writes are
      heavily starved and this causes large delays all over the system (due to
      processes blocking on page lock, transaction starts, etc.). When
      writeback throttling is disabled, write throughput is about one fifth of
      a read throughput which roughly matches readers/writers ratio and
      overall the system stalls are much shorter.
      
      Mixing writeback throttling logic with CFQ throttling logic is always a
      recipe for surprises as CFQ assumes it sees the big part of the picture
      which is not necessarily true when writeback throttling is blocking
      requests. So disable writeback throttling logic by default when CFQ is
      used as an IO scheduler.
