      writeback: remove bdi_start_writeback() · c00ddad3
      Tejun Heo authored
      bdi_start_writeback() is a thin wrapper on top of
      __wb_start_writeback() which is used only by laptop_mode_timer_fn().
      This patches removes bdi_start_writeback(), renames
      __wb_start_writeback() to wb_start_writeback() and makes
      laptop_mode_timer_fn() use it instead.
      
      This doesn't cause any functional difference and will ease making
      laptop_mode_timer_fn() cgroup writeback aware.

      writeback: make bdi->min/max_ratio handling cgroup writeback aware · 693108a8
      Tejun Heo authored
      bdi->min/max_ratio are user-configurable per-bdi knobs which regulate
      dirty limit of each bdi.  For cgroup writeback, they need to be
      further distributed across wb's (bdi_writeback's) belonging to the
      configured bdi.
      
      This patch introduces wb_min_max_ratio() which distributes
      bdi->min/max_ratio according to a wb's proportion in the total active
      bandwidth of its bdi.
      
      v2: Update wb_min_max_ratio() to fix a bug where both min and max were
          assigned the min value and avoid calculations when possible.

      writeback: don't issue wb_writeback_work if clean · e7972912
      Tejun Heo authored
      There are several places in fs/fs-writeback.c which queues
      wb_writeback_work without checking whether the target wb
      (bdi_writeback) has dirty inodes or not.  The only thing
      wb_writeback_work does is writing back the dirty inodes for the target
      wb and queueing a work item for a clean wb is essentially noop.  There
      are some side effects such as bandwidth stats being updated and
      triggering tracepoints but these don't affect the operation in any
      meaningful way.
      
      This patch makes all writeback_inodes_sb_nr() and sync_inodes_sb()
      skip wb_queue_work() if the target bdi is clean.  Also, it moves
      dirtiness check from wakeup_flusher_threads() to
      __wb_start_writeback() so that all its callers benefit from the check.
      
      While the overhead incurred by scheduling a noop work isn't currently
      significant, the overhead may be higher with cgroup writeback support
      as we may end up issuing noop work items to a lot of clean wb's.

      writeback: make bdi_has_dirty_io() take multiple bdi_writeback's into account · 95a46c65
      Tejun Heo authored
      bdi_has_dirty_io() used to only reflect whether the root wb
      (bdi_writeback) has dirty inodes.  For cgroup writeback support, it
      needs to take all active wb's into account.  If any wb on the bdi has
      dirty inodes, bdi_has_dirty_io() should return true.
      
      To achieve that, as inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked() now keep track
      of the dirty state transition of each wb, the number of dirty wbs can
      be counted in the bdi; however, bdi is already aggregating
      wb->avg_write_bandwidth which can easily be guaranteed to be > 0 when
      there are any dirty inodes by ensuring wb->avg_write_bandwidth can't
      dip below 1.  bdi_has_dirty_io() can simply test whether
      bdi->tot_write_bandwidth is zero or not.
      
      While this bumps the value of wb->avg_write_bandwidth to one when it
      used to be zero, this shouldn't cause any meaningful behavior
      difference.
      
      bdi_has_dirty_io() is made an inline function which tests whether
      ->tot_write_bandwidth is non-zero.  Also, WARN_ON_ONCE()'s on its
      value are added to inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked().

      writeback: implement backing_dev_info->tot_write_bandwidth · 766a9d6e
      Tejun Heo authored
      cgroup writeback support needs to keep track of the sum of
      avg_write_bandwidth of all wb's (bdi_writeback's) with dirty inodes to
      distribute write workload.  This patch adds bdi->tot_write_bandwidth
      and updates inode_wb_list_move_locked(), inode_wb_list_del_locked()
      and wb_update_write_bandwidth() to adjust it as wb's gain and lose
      dirty inodes and its avg_write_bandwidth gets updated.
      
      As the update events are not synchronized with each other,
      bdi->tot_write_bandwidth is an atomic_long_t.

      writeback: implement WB_has_dirty_io wb_state flag · d6c10f1f
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, wb_has_dirty_io() determines whether a wb (bdi_writeback)
      has any dirty inode by testing all three IO lists on each invocation
      without actively keeping track.  For cgroup writeback support, a
      single bdi will host multiple wb's each of which will host dirty
      inodes separately and we'll need to make bdi_has_dirty_io(), which
      currently only represents the root wb, aggregate has_dirty_io from all
      member wb's, which requires tracking transitions in has_dirty_io state
      on each wb.
      
      This patch introduces inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked() to consolidate
      IO list operations leaving queue_io() the only other function which
      directly manipulates IO lists (via move_expired_inodes()).  All three
      functions are updated to call wb_io_lists_[de]populated() which keep
      track of whether the wb has dirty inodes or not and record it using
      the new WB_has_dirty_io flag.  inode_wb_list_moved_locked()'s return
      value indicates whether the wb had no dirty inodes before.
      
      mark_inode_dirty() is restructured so that the return value of
      inode_wb_list_move_locked() can be used for deciding whether to wake
      up the wb.
      
      While at it, change {bdi|wb}_has_dirty_io()'s return values to bool.
      These functions were returning 0 and 1 before.  Also, add a comment
      explaining the synchronization of wb_state flags.
      
      v2: Updated to accommodate b_dirty_time.

      writeback: implement and use inode_congested() · 703c2708
      Tejun Heo authored
      In several places, bdi_congested() and its wrappers are used to
      determine whether more IOs should be issued.  With cgroup writeback
      support, this question can't be answered solely based on the bdi
      (backing_dev_info).  It's dependent on whether the filesystem and bdi
      support cgroup writeback and the blkcg the inode is associated with.
      
      This patch implements inode_congested() and its wrappers which take
      @inode and determines the congestion state considering cgroup
      writeback.  The new functions replace bdi_*congested() calls in places
      where the query is about specific inode and task.
      
      There are several filesystem users which also fit this criteria but
      they should be updated when each filesystem implements cgroup
      writeback support.
      
      v2: Now that a given inode is associated with only one wb, congestion
          state can be determined independent from the asking task.  Drop
          @task.  Spotted by Vivek.  Also, converted to take @inode instead
          of @mapping and renamed to inode_congested().

      writeback, blkcg: propagate non-root blkcg congestion state · 482cf79c
      Tejun Heo authored
      Now that bdi layer can handle per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested state,
      blk_{set|clear}_congested() can propagate non-root blkcg congestion
      state to them.
      
      This can be easily achieved by disabling the root_rl tests in
      blk_{set|clear}_congested().  Note that we still need those tests when
      !CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK as otherwise we'll end up flipping root blkcg
      wb's congestion state for events happening on other blkcgs.

      writeback, blkcg: restructure blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() · d40f75a0
      Tejun Heo authored
      blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() take @q and set or clear,
      respectively, the congestion state of its bdi's root wb.  Because bdi
      used to be able to handle congestion state only on the root wb, the
      callers of those functions tested whether the congestion is on the
      root blkcg and skipped if not.
      
      This is cumbersome and makes implementation of per cgroup
      bdi_writeback congestion state propagation difficult.  This patch
      renames blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() to
      blk_{set|clear}_congested(), and makes them take request_list instead
      of request_queue and test whether the specified request_list is the
      root one before updating bdi_writeback congestion state.  This makes
      the tests in the callers unnecessary and simplifies them.
      
      As there are no external users of these functions, the definitions are
      moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to block/blk-core.c.
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior difference.

      writeback: make congestion functions per bdi_writeback · ec8a6f26
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, all congestion functions take bdi (backing_dev_info) and
      always operate on the root wb (bdi->wb) and the congestion state from
      the block layer is propagated only for the root blkcg.  This patch
      introduces {set|clear}_wb_congested() and wb_congested() which take a
      bdi_writeback_congested and bdi_writeback respectively.  The bdi
      counteparts are now wrappers invoking the wb based functions on
      @bdi->wb.
      
      While converting clear_bdi_congested() to clear_wb_congested(), the
      local variable declaration order between @wqh and @bit is swapped for
      cosmetic reason.
      
      This patch just adds the new wb based functions.  The following
      patches will apply them.

      writeback: make backing_dev_info host cgroup-specific bdi_writebacks · 52ebea74
      Tejun Heo authored
      For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi
      (backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb
      (bdi_writeback).  This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host
      multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks).
      
      On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg.  This allows
      using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every
      memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a
      dedicated wb to each memcg.  This means that there may be multiple
      wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg.  As congested state is per
      blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested
      state.  This is achieved by tracking congested state via
      bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg.
      
      bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup.
      cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or
      looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page
      being dirtied or current task.  Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree
      by its memcg id.  Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be
      retrieved using inode_to_wb().
      
      Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all
      pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb.
      
      v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside
          mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL.
          Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed.  Both
          detected by the kbuild bot.
      
      v2: Updated so that wb association is per inode and wb is per memcg
          rather than blkcg.

      bdi: separate out congested state into a separate struct · 4aa9c692

      Currently, a wb's (bdi_writeback) congestion state is carried in its

      With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
      declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
      unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
      makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.
      
      This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
      essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it.  c files
      which need access to more backing-dev details now include
      backing-dev.h directly.  This takes backing-dev.h off the common
      include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
      and cgroup.
      
      v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

      writeback: reorganize mm/backing-dev.c · 46100071
      Tejun Heo authored
      Move wb_shutdown(), bdi_register(), bdi_register_dev(),
      bdi_prune_sb(), bdi_remove_from_list() and bdi_unregister() so that
      init / exit functions are grouped together.  This will make updating
      init / exit paths for cgroup writeback support easier.
      
      This is pure source file reorganization.

      writeback: move backing_dev_info->wb_lock and ->worklist into bdi_writeback · f0054bb1
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
      and the role of the separation is unclear.  For cgroup support for
      writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
      wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi.  To achieve
      that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
      IOs for a cgroup independently.
      
      This patch moves bdi->wb_lock and ->worklist into wb.
      
      * The lock protects bdi->worklist and bdi->wb.dwork scheduling.  While
        moving, rename it to wb->work_lock as wb->wb_lock is confusing.
        Also, move wb->dwork downwards so that it's colocated with the new
        ->work_lock and ->work_list fields.
      
      * bdi_writeback_workfn()		-> wb_workfn()
        bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed(bdi)	-> wb_wakeup_delayed(wb)
        bdi_wakeup_thread(bdi)		-> wb_wakeup(wb)
        bdi_queue_work(bdi, ...)		-> wb_queue_work(wb, ...)
        __bdi_start_writeback(bdi, ...)	-> __wb_start_writeback(wb, ...)
        get_next_work_item(bdi)		-> get_next_work_item(wb)
      
      * bdi_wb_shutdown() is renamed to wb_shutdown() and now takes @wb.
        The function contained parts which belong to the containing bdi
        rather than the wb itself - testing cap_writeback_dirty and
        bdi_remove_from_list() invocation.  Those are moved to
        bdi_unregister().
      
      * bdi_wb_{init|exit}() are renamed to wb_{init|exit}().
        Initializations of the moved bdi->wb_lock and ->work_list are
        relocated from bdi_init() to wb_init().
      
      * As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
        uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
        introducing no behavior changes.

      * Init/exits of the relocated fields are moved to bdi_wb_init/exit()
        respectively.  Note that explicit zeroing is dropped in the process

      memcg: implement mem_cgroup_css_from_page() · ad7fa852
      Tejun Heo authored
      Implement mem_cgroup_css_from_page() which returns the
      cgroup_subsys_state of the memcg associated with a given page on the
      default hierarchy.  This will be used by cgroup writeback support.
      
      This function assumes that page->mem_cgroup association doesn't change
      until the page is released, which is true on the default hierarchy as
      long as replace_page_cache_page() is not used.  As the only user of
      replace_page_cache_page() is FUSE which won't support cgroup writeback
      for the time being, this works for now, and replace_page_cache_page()
      will soon be updated so that the invariant actually holds.
      
      Note that the RCU protected page->mem_cgroup access is consistent with
      other usages across memcg but ultimately incorrect.  These unlocked
      accesses are missing required barriers.  page->mem_cgroup should be
      made an RCU pointer and updated and accessed using RCU operations.
      
      v4: Instead of triggering WARN, return the root css on the traditional
          hierarchies.  This makes the function a lot easier to deal with
          especially as there's no light way to synchronize against
          hierarchy rebinding.
      
      v3: s/mem_cgroup_migrate()/mem_cgroup_css_from_page()/
      
      v2: Trigger WARN if the function is used on the traditional
          hierarchies and add comment about the assumed invariant.

      blkcg: always create the blkcg_gq for the root blkcg · ec13b1d6
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, blkcg does a minor optimization where the root blkcg is
      created when the first blkcg policy is activated on a queue and
      destroyed on the deactivation of the last.  On systems where blkcg is
      configured but not used, this saves one blkcg_gq struct per queue.  On
      systems where blkcg is actually used, there's no difference.  The only
      case where this can lead to any meaninful, albeit still minute, save
      in memory consumption is when all blkcg policies are deactivated after
      being widely used in the system, which is a hihgly unlikely scenario.
      
      The conditional existence of root blkcg_gq has already created several
      bugs in blkcg and became an issue once again for the new per-cgroup
      wb_congested mechanism for cgroup writeback support leading to a NULL
      dereference when no blkcg policy is active.  This is really not worth
      bothering with.  This patch makes blkcg always allocate and link the
      root blkcg_gq and release it only on queue destruction.

      memcg: add per cgroup dirty page accounting · c4843a75
      Greg Thelen authored
      When modifying PG_Dirty on cached file pages, update the new
      MEM_CGROUP_STAT_DIRTY counter.  This is done in the same places where
      global NR_FILE_DIRTY is managed.  The new memcg stat is visible in the
      per memcg memory.stat cgroupfs file.  The most recent past attempt at
      this was http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cgroups/8632
      
      The new accounting supports future efforts to add per cgroup dirty
      page throttling and writeback.  It also helps an administrator break
      down a container's memory usage and provides evidence to understand
      memcg oom kills (the new dirty count is included in memcg oom kill
      messages).
      
      The ability to move page accounting between memcg
      (memory.move_charge_at_immigrate) makes this accounting more
      complicated than the global counter.  The existing
      mem_cgroup_{begin,end}_page_stat() lock is used to serialize move
      accounting with stat updates.
      Typical update operation:
      	memcg = mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(page)
      	if (TestSetPageDirty()) {
      		[...]
      		mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(memcg)
      	}
      	mem_cgroup_end_page_stat(memcg)
      
      Summary of mem_cgroup_end_page_stat() overhead:
      - Without CONFIG_MEMCG it's a no-op
      - With CONFIG_MEMCG and no inter memcg task movement, it's just
        rcu_read_lock()
      - With CONFIG_MEMCG and inter memcg  task movement, it's
        rcu_read_lock() + spin_lock_irqsave()
      
      A memcg parameter is added to several routines because their callers
      now grab mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() which returns the memcg later
      needed by for mem_cgroup_update_page_stat().
      
      Because mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() may disable interrupts, some
      adjustments are needed:
      - move __mark_inode_dirty() from __set_page_dirty() to its caller.
        __mark_inode_dirty() locking does not want interrupts disabled.
      - use spin_lock_irqsave(tree_lock) rather than spin_lock_irq() in
        __delete_from_page_cache(), replace_page_cache_page(),

      As expected anon page faults are not affected by this patch.

      page_writeback: revive cancel_dirty_page() in a restricted form · 11f81bec
      Tejun Heo authored
      cancel_dirty_page() had some issues and b9ea2515 ("page_writeback:
      clean up mess around cancel_dirty_page()") replaced it with
      account_page_cleaned() which makes the caller responsible for clearing
      the dirty bit; unfortunately, the planned changes for cgroup writeback
      support requires synchronization between dirty bit manipulation and
      stat updates.  While we can open-code such synchronization in each
      account_page_cleaned() callsite, that's gonna be unnecessarily awkward
      and verbose.
      
      This patch revives cancel_dirty_page() but in a more restricted form.
      All it does is TestClearPageDirty() followed by account_page_cleaned()
      invocation if the page was dirty.  This helper covers all
      account_page_cleaned() usages except for __delete_from_page_cache()
      which is a special case anyway and left alone.  As this leaves no
      module user for account_page_cleaned(), EXPORT_SYMBOL() is dropped
      from it.
      
      This patch just revives cancel_dirty_page() as a trivial wrapper to
      replace equivalent usages and doesn't introduce any functional
      changes.

      blk-mq: Shared tag enhancements · f26cdc85
      Keith Busch authored
      Storage controllers may expose multiple block devices that share hardware
      resources managed by blk-mq. This patch enhances the shared tags so a
      low-level driver can access the shared resources not tied to the unshared
      h/w contexts. This way the LLD can dynamically add and delete disks and
      request queues without having to track all the request_queue hctx's to
      iterate outstanding tags.
