2017-02-02block: Make blk_get_backing_dev_info() safe without open bdevJan Kara
Currenly blk_get_backing_dev_info() is not safe to be called when the block device is not open as bdev->bd_disk is NULL in that case. However inode_to_bdi() uses this function and may be call called from flusher worker or other writeback related functions without bdev being open which leads to crashes such as: [113031.075540] Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000 [113031.075614] Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000003692e0 0:mon> t [c0000000fb65f900] c00000000036cb6c writeback_sb_inodes+0x30c/0x590 [c0000000fb65fa10] c00000000036ced4 __writeback_inodes_wb+0xe4/0x150 [c0000000fb65fa70] c00000000036d33c wb_writeback+0x30c/0x450 [c0000000fb65fb40] c00000000036e198 wb_workfn+0x268/0x580 [c0000000fb65fc50] c0000000000f3470 process_one_work+0x1e0/0x590 [c0000000fb65fce0] c0000000000f38c8 worker_thread+0xa8/0x660 [c0000000fb65fd80] c0000000000fc4b0 kthread+0x110/0x130 [c0000000fb65fe30] c0000000000098f0 ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x6c Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2017-01-31block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ spaceChristoph Hellwig
Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough operations. Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

We can't initalize the elevator fields for flushes as flush share space in struct request with the elevator data. But currently we can't communicate that a request is a flush through blk_get_request as we can only pass READ or WRITE, and the low-level code looks at the possible NULL bio to check for a flush.

2016-12-09block: improve handling of the magic discard payloadChristoph Hellwig
Instead of allocating a single unused biovec for discard requests, send them down without any payload. Instead we allow the driver to add a "special" payload using a biovec embedded into struct request (unioned over other fields never used while in the driver), and overloading the number of segments for this case. This has a couple of advantages: - we don't have to allocate the bio_vec - the amount of special casing for discard requests in the block layer is significantly reduced - using this same scheme for other request types is trivial, which will be important for implementing the new WRITE_ZEROES op on devices where it actually requires a payload (e.g. SCSI) - we can get rid of playing games with the request length, as we'll never touch it and completions will work just fine - it will allow us to support ranged discard operations in the future by merging non-contiguous discard bios into a single request - last but not least it removes a lot of code This patch is the common base for my WIP series for ranges discards and to remove discard_zeroes_data in favor of always using REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES, so it would be good to get it in quickly.

2016-12-05block: fix unintended fallthrough in generic_make_request_checks()Nicolai Stange
Since commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout") messages like the following show up: EXT4-fs (dm-1): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 2368848 at logical offset 0 with max blocks 1 with error 95 EXT4-fs (dm-1): This should not happen!! Data will be lost Due to the following fallthrough introduced with commit 2d253440b5af ("block: Define zoned block device operations"), generic_make_request_checks() would accept a REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME bio only if the block device supports "write same" *and* is a zoned one: switch (bio_op(bio)) { [...] case REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME: if (!bdev_write_same(bio->bi_bdev)) goto not_supported; case REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT: case REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET: if (!bdev_is_zoned(bio->bi_bdev)) goto not_supported; break; [...] } Thus, although the bio setup as done by __blkdev_issue_write_same() from commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout") would succeed, its actual submission would not, resulting in the EOPNOTSUPP == 95.

2016-11-10block: hook up writeback throttlingJens Axboe
Enable throttling of buffered writeback to make it a lot more smooth, and has way less impact on other system activity. Background writeback should be, by definition, background activity. The fact that we flush huge bundles of it at the time means that it potentially has heavy impacts on foreground workloads, which isn't ideal. We can't easily limit the sizes of writes that we do, since that would impact file system layout in the presence of delayed allocation. So just throttle back buffered writeback, unless someone is waiting for it. The algorithm for when to throttle takes its inspiration in the CoDel networking scheduling algorithm. Like CoDel, blk-wb monitors the minimum latencies of requests over a window of time. In that window of time, if the minimum latency of any request exceeds a given target, then a scale count is incremented and the queue depth is shrunk. The next monitoring window is shrunk accordingly. Unlike CoDel, if we hit a window that exhibits good behavior, then we simply increment the scale count and re-calculate the limits for that scale value. This prevents us from oscillating between a close-to-ideal value and max all the time, instead remaining in the windows where we get good behavior. Unlike CoDel, blk-wb allows the scale count to to negative. This happens if we primarily have writes going on. Unlike positive scale counts, this doesn't change the size of the monitoring window. When the heavy writers finish, blk-bw quickly snaps back to it's stable state of a zero scale count. The patch registers a sysfs entry, 'wb_lat_usec'. This sets the latency target to me met. It defaults to 2 msec for non-rotational storage, and 75 msec for rotational storage. Setting this value to '0' disables blk-wb. Generally, a user would not have to touch this setting. We don't enable WBT on devices that are managed with CFQ, and have a non-root block cgroup attached. If we have a proportional share setup on this particular disk, then the wbt throttling will interfere with that. We don't have a strong need for wbt for that case, since we will rely on CFQ doing that for us. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-11-10block: add scalable completion tracking of requestsJens Axboe
For legacy block, we simply track them in the request queue. For blk-mq, we track them on a per-sw queue basis, which we can then sum up through the hardware queues and finally to a per device state. The stats are tracked in, roughly, 0.1s interval windows. Add sysfs files to display the stats. The feature is off by default, to avoid any extra overhead. In-kernel users of it can turn it on by setting QUEUE_FLAG_STATS in the queue flags. We currently don't turn it on if someone just reads any of the stats files, that is something we could add as well. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
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.

2016-10-28block: 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. Various functions passing this value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests. It also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for struct request.

2016-10-19block: Add iocontext priority to requestAdam Manzanares
Patch adds an association between iocontext ioprio and the ioprio of a request. This is done to enable request based drivers the ability to act on priority information stored in the request. An example being ATA devices that support command priorities. If the ATA driver discovers that the device supports command priorities and the request has valid priority information indicating the request is high priority, then a high priority command can be sent to the device. This should improve tail latencies for high priority IO on any device that queues requests internally and can make use of the priority information stored in the request. The ioprio of the request is set in blk_rq_set_prio which takes the request and the ioc as arguments. If the ioc is valid in blk_rq_set_prio then the iopriority of the request is set as the iopriority of the ioc. In init_request_from_bio a check is made to see if the ioprio of the bio is valid and if so then the request prio comes from the bio.

blk_get_request is used for BLOCK_PC and similar passthrough requests. Currently we always need to call blk_rq_set_block_pc or an open coded version of it to allow appending bios using the request mapping helpers later on, which is a somewhat awkward API. Instead move the initialization part of blk_rq_set_block_pc into blk_get_request, so that we always have a safe to use request.

2016-06-09cfq-iosched: temporarily boost queue priority for idle classesJens Axboe
If we're queuing REQ_PRIO IO and the task is running at an idle IO class, then temporarily boost the priority. This prevents livelocks due to priority inversion, when a low priority task is holding file system resources while attempting to do IO. An example of that is shown below. An ioniced idle task is holding the directory mutex, while a normal priority task is trying to do a directory lookup.
