2016-11-08block: set REQ_SYNC if we clear REQ_FUA|REQ_PREFLUSHJens Axboe
If we insert a flush request, we clear REQ_PREFLUSH and/or REQ_FUA, depending on flush settings. Since op_is_sync() factors those flags in for deciding whether this request is sync or not, we should set REQ_SYNC to avoid screwing up this accounting. This should be less fragile.

2016-11-06blk-mq: Always schedule hctx->next_cpuGabriel Krisman Bertazi
Commit 0e87e58bf60e ("blk-mq: improve warning for running a queue on the wrong CPU") attempts to avoid triggering the WARN_ON in __blk_mq_run_hw_queue when the expected CPU is dead. Problem is, in the last batch execution before round robin, blk_mq_hctx_next_cpu can schedule a dead CPU and also update next_cpu to the next alive CPU in the mask, which will trigger the WARN_ON despite the previous workaround. The following patch fixes this scenario by always scheduling the value in hctx->next_cpu. This changes the moment when we round-robin the CPU running the hctx, but it really doesn't matter, since it still executes BLK_MQ_CPU_WORK_BATCH times in a row before switching to another CPU.

2016-11-05block: add code to track actual device queue depthJens Axboe
For blk-mq, ->nr_requests does track queue depth, at least at init time. But for the older queue paths, it's simply a soft setting. On top of that, it's generally larger than the hardware setting on purpose, to allow backup of requests for merging. Fill a hole in struct request with a 'queue_depth' member, that drivers can call to more closely inform the block layer of the real queue depth.

2016-11-03block: immediately dispatch big size requestShaohua Li
Currently block plug holds up to 16 non-mergeable requests. This makes sense if the request size is small, eg, reduce lock contention. But if request size is big enough, we don't need to worry about lock contention. Holding such request makes no sense and it lows the disk utilization. In practice, this improves 10% throughput for my raid5 sequential write workload. The size (128k) is arbitrary right now, but it makes sure lock contention is small. This probably could be more intelligent, eg, check average request size holded. Since this is mainly for sequential IO, probably not worthy. V2: check the last request instead of the first request, so as long as there is one big size request we flush the plug.

2016-11-02blk-mq: Introduce blk_mq_quiesce_queue()Bart Van Assche
blk_mq_quiesce_queue() waits until ongoing .queue_rq() invocations have finished. This function does *not* wait until all outstanding requests have finished (this means invocation of request.end_io()). The algorithm used by blk_mq_quiesce_queue() is as follows: * Hold either an RCU read lock or an SRCU read lock around .queue_rq() calls. The former is used if .queue_rq() does not block and the latter if .queue_rq() may block. * blk_mq_quiesce_queue() first calls blk_mq_stop_hw_queues() followed by synchronize_srcu() or synchronize_rcu(). The latter call waits for .queue_rq() invocations that started before blk_mq_quiesce_queue() was called. * The blk_mq_hctx_stopped() calls that control whether or not .queue_rq() will be called are called with the (S)RCU read lock held. This is necessary to avoid race conditions against blk_mq_quiesce_queue().

2016-11-02blk-mq: Avoid that requeueing starts stopped queuesBart Van Assche
Since blk_mq_requeue_work() starts stopped queues and since execution of this function can be scheduled after a queue has been stopped it is not possible to stop queues without using an additional state variable to track whether or not the queue has been stopped. Hence modify blk_mq_requeue_work() such that it does not start stopped queues. My conclusion after a review of the blk_mq_stop_hw_queues() and blk_mq_{delay_,}kick_requeue_list() callers is as follows: * In the dm driver starting and stopping queues should only happen if __dm_suspend() or __dm_resume() is called and not if the requeue list is processed. * In the SCSI core queue stopping and starting should only be performed by the scsi_internal_device_block() and scsi_internal_device_unblock() functions but not by any other function. Although the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call in scsi_queue_rq() may help to reduce CPU load if a LLD queue is full, figuring out whether or not a queue should be restarted when requeueing a command would require to introduce additional locking in scsi_mq_requeue_cmd() to avoid a race with scsi_internal_device_block(). Avoid this complexity by removing the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call from scsi_queue_rq(). * In the NVMe core only the functions that call blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues() explicitly should start stopped queues. * A blk_mq_start_stopped_hwqueues() call must be added in the xen-blkfront driver in its blkif_recover() function.

2016-10-28block: better op and flags encodingChristoph Hellwig
Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to stop having to shift around the operation values. In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do that later) and thus clean up a lot of code. Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags field in struct request to 32-bits.

2016-10-11block: invalidate the page cache when issuing BLKZEROOUTDarrick J. Wong
Patch series "fallocate for block devices", v11. This is a patchset to fix page cache coherency with BLKZEROOUT and implement fallocate for block devices. The first patch is a fix to the existing BLKZEROOUT ioctl to invalidate the page cache if the zeroing command to the underlying device succeeds. Without this patch we still have the pagecache coherence bug that's been in the kernel forever. The second patch changes the internal block device functions to reject attempts to discard or zeroout that are not aligned to the logical block size. Previously, we only checked that the start/len parameters were 512-byte aligned, which caused kernel BUG_ONs for unaligned IOs to 4k-LBA devices. The third patch creates an fallocate handler for block devices, wires up the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE flag to zeroing-discard, and connects FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE to write-same so that we can have a consistent fallocate interface between files and block devices. It also allows the combination of PUNCH_HOLE and NO_HIDE_STALE to invoke non-zeroing discard. Test cases for the new block device fallocate are now in xfstests as generic/349-351. This patch (of 3): Invalidate the page cache (as a regular O_DIRECT write would do) to avoid returning stale cache contents at a later time.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main pull request for block layer changes in 4.9. As mentioned at the last merge window, I've changed things up and now do just one branch for core block layer changes, and driver changes. This avoids dependencies between the two branches. Outside of this main pull request, there are two topical branches coming as well. This pull request contains: - A set of fixes, and a conversion to blk-mq, of nbd. From Josef. - Set of fixes and updates for lightnvm from Matias, Simon, and Arnd. Followup dependency fix from Geert. - General fixes from Bart, Baoyou, Guoqing, and Linus W. - CFQ async write starvation fix from Glauber. - Add supprot for delayed kick of the requeue list, from Mike. - Pull out the scalable bitmap code from blk-mq-tag.c and make it generally available under the name of sbitmap. Only blk-mq-tag uses it for now, but the blk-mq scheduling bits will use it as well. From Omar. - bdev thaw error progagation from Pierre. - Improve the blk polling statistics, and allow the user to clear them.

2016-09-30blkcg: Unlock blkcg_pol_mutex only once when cpd == NULLBart Van Assche
Unlocking a mutex twice is wrong. Hence modify blkcg_policy_register() such that blkcg_pol_mutex is unlocked once if cpd == NULL.

2016-09-23cfq: fix starvation of asynchronous writesGlauber Costa
While debugging timeouts happening in my application workload (ScyllaDB), I have observed calls to open() taking a long time, ranging everywhere from 2 seconds - the first ones that are enough to time out my application - to more than 30 seconds. The problem seems to happen because XFS may block on pending metadata updates under certain circumnstances, and that's confirmed with the following backtrace taken by the offcputime tool (iovisor/bcc): ffffffffb90c57b1 finish_task_switch ffffffffb97dffb5 schedule ffffffffb97e310c schedule_timeout ffffffffb97e1f12 __down ffffffffb90ea821 down ffffffffc046a9dc xfs_buf_lock ffffffffc046abfb _xfs_buf_find ffffffffc046ae4a xfs_buf_get_map ffffffffc046babd xfs_buf_read_map ffffffffc0499931 xfs_trans_read_buf_map ffffffffc044a561 xfs_da_read_buf ffffffffc0451390 xfs_dir3_leaf_read.constprop.16 ffffffffc0452b90 xfs_dir2_leaf_lookup_int ffffffffc0452e0f xfs_dir2_leaf_lookup ffffffffc044d9d3 xfs_dir_lookup ffffffffc047d1d9 xfs_lookup ffffffffc0479e53 xfs_vn_lookup ffffffffb925347a path_openat ffffffffb9254a71 do_filp_open ffffffffb9242a94 do_sys_open ffffffffb9242b9e sys_open ffffffffb97e42b2 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath 00007fb0698162ed [unknown] Inspecting my run with blktrace, I can see that the xfsaild kthread exhibit very high "Dispatch wait" times, on the dozens of seconds range and consistent with the open() times I have saw in that run. Still from the blktrace output, we can after searching a bit, identify the request that wasn't dispatched: 8,0 11 152 81.092472813 804 A WM 141698288 + 8 <- (8,1) 141696240 8,0 11 153 81.092472889 804 Q WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1] 8,0 11 154 81.092473207 804 G WM 141698288 + 8 [xfsaild/sda1] 8,0 11 206 81.092496118 804 I WM 141698288 + 8 ( 22911) [xfsaild/sda1] <==== 'I' means Inserted (into the IO scheduler) ===================================> 8,0 0 289372 96.718761435 0 D WM 141698288 + 8 (15626265317) [swapper/0] <==== Only 15s later the CFQ scheduler dispatches the request ======================> As we can see above, in this particular example CFQ took 15 seconds to dispatch this request. Going back to the full trace, we can see that the xfsaild queue had plenty of opportunity to run, and it was selected as the active queue many times. It would just always be preempted by something else (example): 8,0 1 0 81.117912979 0 m N cfq1618SN / insert_request 8,0 1 0 81.117913419 0 m N cfq1618SN / add_to_rr 8,0 1 0 81.117914044 0 m N cfq1618SN / preempt 8,0 1 0 81.117914398 0 m N cfq767A / slice expired t=1 8,0 1 0 81.117914755 0 m N cfq767A / resid=40 8,0 1 0 81.117915340 0 m N / served: vt=1948520448 min_vt=1948520448 8,0 1 0 81.117915858 0 m N cfq767A / sl_used=1 disp=0 charge=0 iops=1 sect=0 where cfq767 is the xfsaild queue and cfq1618 corresponds to one of the ScyllaDB IO dispatchers. The requests preempting the xfsaild queue are synchronous requests. That's a characteristic of ScyllaDB workloads, as we only ever issue O_DIRECT requests. While it can be argued that preempting ASYNC requests in favor of SYNC is part of the CFQ logic, I don't believe that doing so for 15+ seconds is anyone's goal. Moreover, unless I am misunderstanding something, that breaks the expectation set by the "fifo_expire_async" tunable, which in my system is set to the default. Looking at the code, it seems to me that the issue is that after we make an async queue active, there is no guarantee that it will execute any request. When the queue itself tests if it cfq_may_dispatch() it can bail if it sees SYNC requests in flight. An incoming request from another queue can also preempt it in such situation before we have the chance to execute anything (as seen in the trace above). This patch sets the must_dispatch flag if we notice that we have requests that are already fifo_expired. This flag is always cleared after cfq_dispatch_request() returns from cfq_dispatch_requests(), so it won't pin the queue for subsequent requests (unless they are themselves expired) Care is taken during preempt to still allow rt requests to preempt us regardless. Testing my workload with this patch applied produces much better results. From the application side I see no timeouts, and the open() latency histogram generated by systemtap looks much better, with the worst outlier at 131ms: Latency histogram of xfs_buf_lock acquisition (microseconds): value |-------------------------------------------------- count 0 | 11 1 |@@@@ 161 2 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 1966 4 |@ 54 8 | 36 16 | 7 32 | 0 64 | 0 ~ 1024 | 0 2048 | 0 4096 | 1 8192 | 1 16384 | 2 32768 | 0 65536 | 0 131072 | 1 262144 | 0 524288 | 0 Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glauber@scylladb.com> CC: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> CC: linux-block@vger.kernel.org CC: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glauber@scylladb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2016-09-22blk-mq: get rid of manual run of queue with __blk_mq_run_hw_queue()Jens Axboe
Two cases: 1) blk_mq_alloc_request() needlessly re-runs the queue, after calling into the tag allocation without NOWAIT set. We don't need to do that. 2) blk_mq_map_request() should just use blk_mq_run_hw_queue() with the async flag set to false.
