Pull core block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the core block IO changes for this merge window. Nothing
earth shattering in here, it's mostly just fixes. In detail:
- Fix for a long standing issue where wrong ordering in blk-mq caused
order_to_size() to spew a warning. From Bart.
- Async discard support from Christoph. Basically just splitting our
sync interface into a submit + wait part.
- Add a cleaner interface for flagging whether a device has a write
back cache or not. We've previously overloaded blk_queue_flush()
with this, but let's make it more explicit. Drivers cleaned up and
updated in the drivers pull request. From me.
- Fix for a double check for whether IO accounting is enabled or not.
From Michael Callahan.
- Fix for the async discard from Mike Snitzer, reinstating the early
EOPNOTSUPP return if the device doesn't support discards.
- Also from Mike, export bio_inc_remaining() so dm can drop it's
private copy of it.
- From Ming Lin, add support for passing in an offset for request
payloads.
- Tag function export from Sagi, which will be used in NVMe in the
drivers pull.
- Two blktrace related fixes from Shaohua.
- Propagate NOMERGE flag when making a request from a bio, also from
Shaohua.
- An optimization to not parse cgroup paths in blk-throttle, if we
don't need to. From Shaohua"

There are several problems in the way a stateid is selected for a
LAYOUTGET operation:
We pick a stateid to use in the RPC prepare op, but that makes
it difficult to serialize LAYOUTGETs that use the open stateid. That
serialization is done in pnfs_update_layout, which occurs well before
the rpc_prepare operation.
Between those two events, the i_lock is dropped and reacquired.
pnfs_update_layout can find that the list has lsegs in it and not do any
serialization, but then later pnfs_choose_layoutget_stateid ends up
choosing the open stateid.
This patch changes the client to select the stateid to use in the
LAYOUTGET earlier, when we're searching for a usable layout segment.
This way we can do it all while holding the i_lock the first time, and
ensure that we serialize any LAYOUTGET call that uses a non-layout
stateid.
This also means a rework of how LAYOUTGET replies are handled, as we
must now get the latest stateid if we want to retransmit in response
to a retryable error.
Most of those errors boil down to the fact that the layout state has
changed in some fashion. Thus, what we really want to do is to re-search
for a layout when it fails with a retryable error, so that we can avoid
reissuing the RPC at all if possible.
While the LAYOUTGET RPC is async, the initiating thread always waits for
it to complete, so it's effectively synchronous anyway. Currently, when
we need to retry a LAYOUTGET because of an error, we drive that retry
via the rpc state machine.
This means that once the call has been submitted, it runs until it
completes. So, we must move the error handling for this RPC out of the
rpc_call_done operation and into the caller.
In order to handle errors like NFS4ERR_DELAY properly, we must also
pass a pointer to the sliding timeout, which is now moved to the stack
in pnfs_update_layout.
The complicating errors are -NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT and
-NFS4ERR_LAYOUTTRYLATER, as those involve a timeout after which we give
up and return NULL back to the caller. So, there is some special
handling for those errors to ensure that the layers driving the retries
can handle that appropriately.

If we get back something like NFS4ERR_OLD_STATEID, that will be
translated into -EAGAIN, and the do/while loop in send_layoutget
will drive the call again.
This is not quite what we want, I think. An error like that is a
sign that something has changed. That something could have been a
concurrent LAYOUTGET that would give us a usable lseg.
Lift the retry logic into pnfs_update_layout instead. That allows
us to redo the layout search, and may spare us from having to issue
an RPC.

When we want to selectively do a LAYOUTRETURN, we need to specify a
stateid that represents most recent layout acquisition that is to be
returned.
When we mark a layout stateid to be returned, we update the return
sequence number in the layout header with that value, if it's newer
than the existing one. Then, when we go to do a LAYOUTRETURN on
layout header put, we overwrite the seqid in the stateid with the
saved one, and then zero it out.

In a cluster failover scenario, it is desirable for the client to
attempt to reconnect quickly, as an alternate NFS server is already
waiting to take over for the down server. The client can't see that
a server IP address has moved to a new server until the existing
connection is gone.
For fabrics and devices where it is meaningful, set a definite upper
bound on the amount of time before it is determined that a
connection is no longer valid. This allows the RPC client to detect
connection loss in a timely matter, then perform a fresh resolution
of the server GUID in case it has changed (cluster failover).

There needs to be a safe method of releasing registered memory
resources when an RPC terminates. Safe can mean a number of things:
+ Doesn't have to sleep
+ Doesn't rely on having a QP in RTS
ro_unmap_safe will be that safe method. It can be used in cases
where synchronous memory invalidation can deadlock, or needs to have
an active QP.
The important case is fencing an RPC's memory regions after it is
signaled (^C) and before it exits. If this is not done, there is a
window where the server can write an RPC reply into memory that the
client has released and re-used for some other purpose.
Note that this is a full solution for FRWR, but FMR and physical
still have some gaps where a particularly bad server can wreak
some havoc on the client. These gaps are not made worse by this
patch and are expected to be exceptionally rare and timing-based.
They are noted in documenting comments.

rpcrdma_marshal_req() makes a simplifying assumption: that NFS
operations with large Call messages have small Reply messages, and
vice versa. Therefore with RPC-over-RDMA, only one chunk type is
ever needed for each Call/Reply pair, because one direction needs
chunks, the other direction will always fit inline.
In fact, this assumption is asserted in the code:
if (rtype != rpcrdma_noch && wtype != rpcrdma_noch) {
dprintk("RPC: %s: cannot marshal multiple chunk lists\n",
__func__);
return -EIO;
}
But RPCGSS_SEC breaks this assumption. Because krb5i and krb5p
perform data transformation on RPC messages before they are
transmitted, direct data placement techniques cannot be used, thus
RPC messages must be sent via a Long call in both directions.
All such calls are sent with a Position Zero Read chunk, and all
such replies are handled with a Reply chunk. Thus the client must
provide every Call/Reply pair with both a Read list and a Reply
chunk.
Without any special security in effect, NFSv4 WRITEs may now also
use the Read list and provide a Reply chunk. The marshal_req
logic was preventing that, meaning an NFSv4 WRITE with a large
payload that included a GETATTR result larger than the inline
threshold would fail.
The code that encodes each chunk list is now completely contained in
its own function. There is some code duplication, but the trade-off
is that the overall logic should be more clear.
Note that all three chunk lists now share the rl_segments array.
Some additional per-req accounting is necessary to track this
usage. For the same reasons that the above simplifying assumption
has held true for so long, I don't expect more array elements are
needed at this time.

When deciding whether to send a Call inline, rpcrdma_marshal_req
doesn't take into account header bytes consumed by chunk lists.
This results in Call messages on the wire that are sometimes larger
than the inline threshold.
Likewise, when a Write list or Reply chunk is in play, the server's
reply has to emit an RDMA Send that includes a larger-than-minimal
RPC-over-RDMA header.
The actual size of a Call message cannot be estimated until after
the chunk lists have been registered. Thus the size of each
RPC-over-RDMA header can be estimated only after chunks are
registered; but the decision to register chunks is based on the size
of that header. Chicken, meet egg.
The best a client can do is estimate header size based on the
largest header that might occur, and then ensure that inline content
is always smaller than that.

Send buffer space is shared between the RPC-over-RDMA header and
an RPC message. A large RPC-over-RDMA header means less space is
available for the associated RPC message, which then has to be
moved via an RDMA Read or Write.
As more segments are added to the chunk lists, the header increases
in size. Typical modern hardware needs only a few segments to
convey the maximum payload size, but some devices and registration
modes may need a lot of segments to convey data payload. Sometimes
so many are needed that the remaining space in the Send buffer is
not enough for the RPC message. Sending such a message usually
fails.
To ensure a transport can always make forward progress, cap the
number of RDMA segments that are allowed in chunk lists. This
prevents less-capable devices and memory registrations from
consuming a large portion of the Send buffer by reducing the
maximum data payload that can be conveyed with such devices.
For now I choose an arbitrary maximum of 8 RDMA segments. This
allows a maximum size RPC-over-RDMA header to fit nicely in the
current 1024 byte inline threshold with over 700 bytes remaining
for an inline RPC message.
The current maximum data payload of NFS READ or WRITE requests is
one megabyte. To convey that payload on a client with 4KB pages,
each chunk segment would need to handle 32 or more data pages. This
is well within the capabilities of FMR. For physical registration,
the maximum payload size on platforms with 4KB pages is reduced to
32KB.
For FRWR, a device's maximum page list depth would need to be at
least 34 to support the maximum 1MB payload. A device with a smaller
maximum page list depth means the maximum data payload is reduced
when using that device.

Currently the sysctls that allow setting the inline threshold allow
any value to be set.
Small values only make the transport run slower. The default 1KB
setting is as low as is reasonable. And the logic that decides how
to divide a Send buffer between RPC-over-RDMA header and RPC message
assumes (but does not check) that the lower bound is not crazy (say,
57 bytes).
Send and receive buffers share a page with some control information.
Values larger than about 3KB can't be supported, currently.

RFC 5666: The "rdma" netid is to be used when IPv4 addressing
is employed by the underlying transport, and "rdma6" for IPv6
addressing.
Add mount -o proto=rdma6 option to support NFS/RDMA IPv6 addressing.
Changes from v2:
- Integrated comments from Chuck Level, Anna Schumaker, Trodt Myklebust
- Add a little more to the patch description to describe NFS/RDMA
IPv6 suggested by Chuck Level and Anna Schumaker
- Removed duplicated rdma6 define
- Remove Opt_xprt_rdma mountfamily since it doesn't support

OPEN_CREATE with EXCLUSIVE4_1 sends initial file permission.
Ignoring fact, that server have indicated that file mod is set, client
will send yet another SETATTR request, but, as mode is already set,
new SETATTR will be empty. This is not a problem, nevertheless
an extra roundtrip and slow open on high latency networks.
This change is aims to skip extra setattr after open if there are
no attributes to be set.
