Various spots check for q->mq_ops being non-NULL, but provide a helper to do this instead. Where the ->mq_ops != NULL check is redundant, remove it. Since mq == rq-based now that legacy is gone, get rid of the queue_is_rq_based() and just use queue_is_mq() everywhere.

The boolean next_sorted is set to false and is never changed, hence the code that checks if it is true is dead code and can now be removed.

2018-11-07block: remove dead elevator codeJens Axboe
This removes a bunch of core and elevator related code. On the core front, we remove anything related to queue running, draining, initialization, plugging, and congestions. We also kill anything related to request allocation, merging, retrieval, and completion. Remove any checking for single queue IO schedulers, as they no longer exist. This means we can also delete a bunch of code related to request issue, adding, completion, etc - and all the SQ related ops and helpers. Also kill the load_default_modules(), as all that did was provide for a way to load the default single queue elevator.

2018-09-26block: fix deadline elevator drain for zoned block devicesDamien Le Moal
When the deadline scheduler is used with a zoned block device, writes to a zone will be dispatched one at a time. This causes the warning message: deadline: forced dispatching is broken (nr_sorted=X), please report this to be displayed when switching to another elevator with the legacy I/O path while write requests to a zone are being retained in the scheduler queue. Prevent this message from being displayed when executing elv_drain_elevator() for a zoned block device. __blk_drain_queue() will loop until all writes are dispatched and completed, resulting in the desired elevator queue drain without extensive modifications to the deadline code itself to handle forced-dispatch calls.

2018-08-21blk-mq: init hctx sched after update ctx and hctx mappingJianchao Wang
Currently, when update nr_hw_queues, IO scheduler's init_hctx will be invoked before the mapping between ctx and hctx is adapted correctly by blk_mq_map_swqueue. The IO scheduler init_hctx (kyber) may depend on this mapping and get wrong result and panic finally. A simply way to fix this is that switch the IO scheduler to 'none' before update the nr_hw_queues, and then switch it back after update nr_hw_queues. blk_mq_sched_init_/exit_hctx are removed due to nobody use them any more.

2018-01-06blk-mq: quiesce queue during switching io sched and updating nr_requestsMing Lei
Dispatch may still be in-progress after queue is frozen, so we have to quiesce queue before switching IO scheduler and updating nr_requests. Also when switching io schedulers, blk_mq_run_hw_queue() may still be called somewhere(such as from nvme_reset_work()), and io scheduler's per-hctx data may not be setup yet, so cause oops even inside blk_mq_hctx_has_pending(), such as it can be run just between: ret = e->ops.mq.init_sched(q, e); AND ret = e->ops.mq.init_hctx(hctx, i) inside blk_mq_init_sched(). This reverts commit 7a148c2fcff8330(block: don't call blk_mq_quiesce_queue() after queue is frozen) basically, and makes sure blk_mq_hctx_has_pending won't be called if queue is quiesced.

A program can use sysfs to request a change of elevator at the same time another task is unregistering the request_queue the elevator would be attached to.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe: - Add BFQ IO scheduler under the new blk-mq scheduling framework. BFQ was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness. From Paolo. - Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler, using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar. - A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life times, solving various problems with hot removal. - A series of updates for lightnvm, mostly from Javier. Includes a 'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block device. - A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef. - A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for more than a decade. - Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar. - blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is marked experimental for now. - Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size IO. - A few fixes for opal, from Scott. - A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics. From a variety of folks, mostly Sagi and James Smart. - A series from Bart, improving our exposed info and capabilities from the blk-mq debugfs support. - A series from Christoph, cleaning up how handle WRITE_ZEROES. - A series from Christoph, cleaning up the block layer handling of how we track errors in a request. On top of being a nice cleanup, it also shrinks the size of struct request a bit. - Removal of mg_disk and hd (sorry Linus) by Christoph.

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>
2016-10-28block: split out request-only flags into a new namespaceChristoph Hellwig
A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of use to the block layer and a few drivers that dig into struct request internals. 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.

2016-07-20block: do not merge requests without consulting with io schedulerTahsin Erdogan
Before merging a bio into an existing request, io scheduler is called to get its approval first. However, the requests that come from a plug flush may get merged by block layer without consulting with io scheduler. In case of CFQ, this can cause fairness problems. For instance, if a request gets merged into a low weight cgroup's request, high weight cgroup now will depend on low weight cgroup to get scheduled. If high weigt cgroup needs that io request to complete before submitting more requests, then it will also lose its timeslice. Following script demonstrates the problem. Group g1 has a low weight, g2 and g3 have equal high weights but g2's requests are adjacent to g1's requests so they are subject to merging. Due to these merges, g2 gets poor disk time allocation. cat > cfq-merge-repro.sh << "EOF" #!/bin/bash set -e IO_ROOT=/mnt-cgroup/io mkdir -p $IO_ROOT if ! mount | grep -qw $IO_ROOT; then mount -t cgroup none -oblkio $IO_ROOT fi cd $IO_ROOT for i in g1 g2 g3; do if [ -d $i ]; then rmdir $i fi done mkdir g1 && echo 10 > g1/blkio.weight mkdir g2 && echo 495 > g2/blkio.weight mkdir g3 && echo 495 > g3/blkio.weight RUNTIME=10 (echo $BASHPID > g1/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=0k &> /dev/null)& (echo $BASHPID > g2/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=64k &> /dev/null)& (echo $BASHPID > g3/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=256k &> /dev/null)& sleep $((RUNTIME+1)) for i in g1 g2 g3; do echo ---- $i ---- cat $i/blkio.time done EOF # ./cfq-merge-repro.sh ---- g1 ---- 8:16 162 ---- g2 ---- 8:16 165 ---- g3 ---- 8:16 686 After applying the patch: # ./cfq-merge-repro.sh ---- g1 ---- 8:16 90 ---- g2 ---- 8:16 445 ---- g3 ---- 8:16 471 Signed-off-by: Tahsin Erdogan <tahsin@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
