The Kyber I/O scheduler is an I/O scheduler for fast devices designed to scale to multiple queues. Users configure only two knobs, the target read and synchronous write latencies, and the scheduler tunes itself to achieve that latency goal. The implementation is based on "tokens", built on top of the scalable bitmap library. Tokens serve as a mechanism for limiting requests. There are two tiers of tokens: queueing tokens and dispatch tokens. A queueing token is required to allocate a request. In fact, these tokens are actually the blk-mq internal scheduler tags, but the scheduler manages the allocation directly in order to implement its policy. Dispatch tokens are device-wide and split up into two scheduling domains: reads vs. writes. Each hardware queue dispatches batches round-robin between the scheduling domains as long as tokens are available for that domain. These tokens can be used as the mechanism to enable various policies. The policy Kyber uses is inspired by active queue management techniques for network routing, similar to blk-wbt. The scheduler monitors latencies and scales the number of dispatch tokens accordingly. Queueing tokens are used to prevent starvation of synchronous requests by asynchronous requests. Various extensions are possible, including better heuristics and ionice support. The new scheduler isn't set as the default yet.

Currently, this callback is called right after put_request() and has no distinguishable purpose. Instead, let's call it before put_request() as soon as I/O has completed on the request, before we account it in blk-stat. With this, Kyber can enable stats when it sees a latency outlier and make sure the outlier gets accounted. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

This operation supports the use case of limiting the number of bits that can be allocated for a given operation. Rather than setting aside some bits at the end of the bitmap, we can set aside bits in each word of the bitmap. This means we can keep the allocation hints spread out and support sbitmap_resize() nicely at the cost of lower granularity for the allowed depth.

This drivers was added in 2008, but as far as a I can tell we never had a single platform that actually registered resources for the platform driver. It's also been unmaintained for a long time and apparently has a ATA mode that can be driven using the IDE/libata subsystem.

When CFQ calls wbt_disable_default(), it will call blk_stat_remove_callback() to stop gathering IO statistics for the purposes of writeback throttling. Later, when request_queue is unregistered, wbt_exit() will call blk_stat_remove_callback() again which will try to delete callback from the list again and possibly cause list corruption. Fix the problem by making wbt_disable_default() called wbt_exit() which is properly guarded against being called multiple times.

Separating discards and zeroout operations allows us to remove the LBPRZ block zeroing constraints from discards and honor the device preferences for UNMAP commands. If supported by the device, we'll also choose UNMAP over one of the WRITE SAME variants for discards. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Martin K. Petersen authored
Now that zeroout and discards are distinct operations we need to separate the policy of choosing the appropriate command. Create a zeroing_mode which can be one of: write: Zeroout assist not present, use regular WRITE writesame: Allow WRITE SAME(10/16) with a zeroed payload writesame_16_unmap: Allow WRITE SAME(16) with UNMAP writesame_10_unmap: Allow WRITE SAME(10) with UNMAP The last two are conditional on the device being thin provisioned with LBPRZ=1 and LBPWS=1 or LBPWS10=1 respectively. Whether to set the UNMAP bit or not depends on the REQ_NOUNMAP flag. And if none of the _unmap variants are supported, regular WRITE SAME will be used if the device supports it. The zeroout_mode is exported in sysfs and the detected mode for a given device can be overridden using the string constants above. With this change in place we can now issue WRITE SAME(16) with UNMAP set for block zeroing applications that require hard guarantees and logical_block_size granularity. And at the same time use the UNMAP command with the device's preferred granulary and alignment for discard operations. Signed-off-by: Martin K.
