2018-01-06block: move bio_alloc_pages() to bcacheMing Lei
bcache is the only user of bio_alloc_pages(), so move this function into bcache, and avoid it being misused in the future. Also rename it to bch_bio_allo_pages() since it is bcache only. Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

2017-10-16bcache: writeback rate clamping: make 32 bit safeMichael Lyle
Sorry this got through to linux-block, was detected by the kbuilds test robot. NSEC_PER_SEC is a long constant; 2.5 * 10^9 doesn't fit in a signed long constant.

2017-10-16bcache: smooth writeback rate controlMichael Lyle
This works in conjunction with the new PI controller. Currently, in real-world workloads, the rate controller attempts to write back 1 sector per second. In practice, these minimum-rate writebacks are between 4k and 60k in test scenarios, since bcache aggregates and attempts to do contiguous writes and because filesystems on top of bcachefs typically write 4k or more. Previously, bcache used to guarantee to write at least once per second. This means that the actual writeback rate would exceed the configured amount by a factor of 8-120 or more. This patch adjusts to be willing to sleep up to 2.5 seconds, and to target writing 4k/second. On the smallest writes, it will sleep 1 second like before, but many times it will sleep longer and load the backing device less. This keeps the loading on the cache and backing device related to writeback more consistent when writing back at low rates.

2017-09-06bcache: fix bch_hprint crash and improve outputMichael Lyle
Most importantly, solve a crash where %llu was used to format signed numbers. This would cause a buffer overflow when reading sysfs writeback_rate_debug, as only 20 bytes were allocated for this and %llu writes 20 characters plus a null. Always use the units mechanism rather than having different output paths for simplicity. Also, correct problems with display output where 1.10 was a larger number than 1.09, by multiplying by 10 and then dividing by 1024 instead of dividing by 100. (Remainders of >= 1000 would print as .10). Minor changes: Always display the decimal point instead of trying to omit it based on number of digits shown. Decide what units to use based on 1000 as a threshold, not 1024 (in other words, always print at most 3 digits before the decimal point).

2017-03-02sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to ↵Ingo Molnar
<linux/sched/clock.h> We are going to split <linux/sched/clock.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which will have to be picked up from other headers and .c files. Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/clock.h> file that just maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

2013-12-16bcache: New writeback PD controllerKent Overstreet
The old writeback PD controller could get into states where it had throttled all the way down and take way too long to recover - it was too complicated to really understand what it was doing. This rewrites a good chunk of it to hopefully be simpler and make more sense, and it also pays more attention to units which should make the behaviour a bit easier to understand.

2013-11-23block: Abstract out bvec iteratorKent Overstreet
Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames things.

2013-09-24bcache: Fix a writeback performance regressionKent Overstreet
Background writeback works by scanning the btree for dirty data and adding those keys into a fixed size buffer, then for each dirty key in the keybuf writing it to the backing device. When read_dirty() finishes and it's time to scan for more dirty data, we need to wait for the outstanding writeback IO to finish - they still take up slots in the keybuf (so that foreground writes can check for them to avoid races) - without that wait, we'll continually rescan when we'll be able to add at most a key or two to the keybuf, and that takes locks that starves foreground IO.

2013-07-01bcache: Use standard utility codeKent Overstreet
Some of bcache's utility code has made it into the rest of the kernel, so drop the bcache versions. Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error handling. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
