One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct foo { int stuff; void *entry[]; }; instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Allow write zeroes operations (REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES) on the block device, if the device supports an optional command bit set for write zeroes. Add support to setup write zeroes command. Set maximum possible write zeroes sectors in one write zeroes command according to nvme write zeroes command definition. This patch was posted as a part of block-write-zeroes support implementation (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9454859/), but did not make into mainline kernel as it got reverted due to failure on the Linus's machine. In this patch in order to be more cautious, we use NVMe controller's maximum hardware sector size which is calculated based on the controller's MDTS (Maximum Data Transfer Size) field to calculate the maximum sectors for the write zeroes request.

Currently, we check whether the hctx type is supported every time in hot path. Actually, this is not necessary, we could save the default hctx into ctx->hctxs if the type is not supported when map swqueues and use it directly with ctx->hctxs[type]. We also needn't check whether the poll is enabled or not, because the caller would clear the REQ_HIPRI in that case.

Currently, the queue mapping result is saved in a two-dimensional array. In the hot path, to get a hctx, we need do following: q->queue_hw_ctx[q->tag_set->map[type].mq_map[cpu]] This isn't very efficient.

When a new I/O request arrives for a bfq_queue, say Q, bfq checks whether that request is close to (a) the head request of some other queue waiting to be served, or (b) the last request dispatched for the in-service queue (in case Q itself is not the in-service queue) If a queue, say Q2, is found for which the above condition holds, then bfq merges Q and Q2, to hopefully get a more sequential I/O in the resulting merged queue, and thus a possibly higher throughput. Case (b) is checked by comparing the new request for Q with the last request dispatched, assuming that the latter necessarily belonged to the in-service queue. Unfortunately, this assumption is no longer always correct, since commit d0edc247 ("block, bfq: inject other-queue I/O into seeky idle queues on NCQ flash"). When the assumption does not hold, queues that must not be merged may be merged, causing unexpected loss of control on per-queue service guarantees. This commit solves this problem by adding an extra field, which stores the actual last request dispatched for the in-service queue, and by using this new field to correctly check case (b).

Writes tend to starve reads. bfq counters this problem by overcharging writes with an inflated service w.r.t. the actual service (number of sector written) they receive. Yet his overcharging is useless, and actually causes unfairness in the opposite direction, when bfq happens to be enforcing strong I/O control. bfq does this enforcing when the scenario is asymmetric, i.e., when some bfq_queue or group of bfq_queues is to be granted a different bandwidth than some other bfq_queue or group of bfq_queues. So, in such a scenario, this commit disables write overcharging. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

bfq simple heuristic from cfq for detecting whether the drive performs command queueing: check whether the average number of in-flight requests is above a given threshold. Unfortunately this heuristic does fail to detect queueing (on drives with queueing) if processes doing I/O are few and issue I/O with a low depth. To reduce false negatives, this commit lowers the threshold. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

bfq maintains an ordered list, through a red-black tree, of unique weights of active bfq_queues. This list is used to detect whether there are active queues with differentiated weights. The weight of a queue is removed from the list when both the following two conditions become true: (1) the bfq_queue is flagged as inactive (2) the has no in-flight request any longer; Unfortunately, in the rare cases where condition (2) becomes true before condition (1), the removal fails, because the function to remove the weight of the queue (bfq_weights_tree_remove) is rightly invoked in the path that deactivates the bfq_queue, but mistakenly invoked *before* the function that actually performs the deactivation (bfq_deactivate_bfqq). This commits moves the invocation of bfq_weights_tree_remove for condition (1) to after bfq_deactivate_bfqq. As a consequence of this move, it is necessary to add a further reference to the queue when the weight of a queue is added, because the queue might otherwise be freed before bfq_weights_tree_remove is invoked. This commit adds this reference and makes all related modifications. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

bfq detects the creation of multiple bfq_queues shortly after each other, namely a burst of queue creations in the terminology used in the code. If the burst is large, then no queue in the burst is granted - either I/O-dispatch plugging when the queue remains temporarily idle while in service; - or weight raising, because it causes even longer plugging. In fact, such a plugging tends to lower throughput, while these bursts are typically due to applications or services that spawn multiple processes, to reach a common goal as soon as possible. Examples are a "git grep" or the booting of a system. Unfortunately, disabling plugging may cause a loss of service guarantees in asymmetric scenarios, i.e., if queue weights are differentiated or if more than one group is active. This commit addresses this issue by no longer disabling I/O-dispatch plugging for queues in large bursts.

If the in-service bfq_queue is sync and remains temporarily idle, then I/O dispatching (from other queues) may be plugged. It may be dome for two reasons: either to boost throughput, or to preserve the bandwidth share of the in-service queue. In the first case, if the I/O of the in-service queue, when it finally arrives, consists only of one small I/O request, then it makes sense to plug even the I/O of the in-service queue. In fact, serving such a small request immediately is likely to lower throughput instead of boosting it, whereas waiting a little bit is likely to let that request grow, thanks to request merging, and become more profitable in terms of throughput (this is likely to happen exactly because the I/O of the queue has been detected to boost throughput). On the opposite end, if I/O dispatching is being plugged only to preserve the bandwidth of the in-service queue, then it would be better not to plug also the I/O of the in-service queue, because such a plugging is likely to cause only loss of bandwidth for the queue. Unfortunately, no distinction is made between the two cases, and the I/O of the in-service queue is always plugged in case just a small I/O request arrives. This commit draws this missing distinction and does not perform harmful plugging. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

In asymmetric scenarios, i.e., when some bfq_queue or bfq_group needs to be guaranteed a different bandwidth than other bfq_queues or bfq_groups, these service guaranteed can be provided only by plugging I/O dispatch, completely or partially, when the queue in service remains temporarily empty. A case where asymmetry is particularly strong is when some active bfq_queues belong to a higher-priority class than some other active bfq_queues. Unfortunately, this important case is not considered at all in the code for detecting asymmetric scenarios. This commit adds the missing logic.

Before commit 18e5a57d ("block, bfq: postpone rq preparation to insert or merge"), the destination queue for a request was chosen by a different hook than the one that then inserted the request. So, between the execution of the two hooks, the bic of the process generating the request could happen to be redirected to a different bfq_queue. As a consequence, the destination bfq_queue stored in the request could be wrong. Such an event does not need to ba handled any longer.

With some unlucky sequences of events, the function bfq_updated_next_req updates the current budget of a bfq_queue to a lower value than the service received by the queue using such a budget. Unfortunately, if this happens, then the return value of the function bfq_bfqq_budget_left becomes inconsistent. This commit solves this problem by lower-bounding the budget computed in bfq_updated_next_req to the service currently charged to the queue.

To boost throughput on devices with internal queueing and in scenarios where device idling is not strictly needed, bfq immediately starts serving a new bfq_queue if the in-service bfq_queue remains without pending I/O, even if new I/O may arrive soon for the latter queue. Then, if such I/O actually arrives soon, bfq preempts the new in-service bfq_queue so as to give the previous queue a chance to go on being served (in case the previous queue should actually be the one to be served, according to its timestamps). However, the in-service bfq_queue, say Q, may also be without further budget when it remains also pending I/O. Since bfq changes budgets dynamically to fit the needs of bfq_queues, this happens more often than one may expect. If this happens, then there is no point in trying to go on serving Q when new I/O arrives for it soon: Q would be expired immediately after being selected for service. This would only cause useless overhead. This commit avoids such a useless selection. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

The speed at which a bfq_queue receives I/O is one of the parameters by which bfq decides whether the queue is soft real-time (i.e., whether the queue contains the I/O of a soft real-time application). In particular, when a bfq_queue remains without outstanding I/O requests, bfq computes the minimum time instant, named soft_rt_next_start, at which the next request of the queue may arrive for the queue to be deemed as soft real time. Unfortunately this filtering may cause problems with a queue in interactive weight raising. In fact, such a queue may be conveying the I/O needed to load a soft real-time application. The latter will actually exhibit a soft real-time I/O pattern after it finally starts doing its job. But, if soft_rt_next_start is updated for an interactive bfq_queue, and the queue has received a lot of service before remaining with no outstanding request (likely to happen on a fast device), then soft_rt_next_start is assigned such a high value that, for a very long time, the queue is prevented from being possibly considered as soft real time. This commit removes the updating of soft_rt_next_start for bfq_queues in interactive weight raising.

The mtip32xx driver uses managed resources for DMA coherent memory and irqs, but then always pairs them with free calls anyway, making the resource tracking rather pointless.
