Pull block updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main pull request for block IO related changes for the 4.16 kernel. Nothing major in this pull request, but a good amount of improvements and fixes all over the map. This contains: - BFQ improvements, fixes, and cleanups from Angelo, Chiara, and Paolo. - Support for SMR zones for deadline and mq-deadline from Damien and Christoph. - Set of fixes for bcache by way of Michael Lyle, including fixes from himself, Kent, Rui, Tang, and Coly. - Series from Matias for lightnvm with fixes from Hans Holmberg, Javier, and Matias. Mostly centered around pblk, and the removing rrpc 1.2 in preparation for supporting 2.0. - A couple of NVMe pull requests from Christoph. Nothing major in here, just fixes and cleanups, and support for command tracing from Johannes. - Support for blk-throttle for tracking reads and writes separately. From Joseph Qi. A few cleanups/fixes also for blk-throttle from Weiping. - Series from Mike Snitzer that enables dm to register its queue more logically, something that's alwways been problematic on dm since it's a stacked device. - Series from Ming cleaning up some of the bio accessor use, in preparation for supporting multipage bvecs. - Various fixes from Ming closing up holes around queue mapping and quiescing. - BSD partition fix from Richard Narron, fixing a problem where we can't mount newer (10/11) FreeBSD partitions. - Series from Tejun reworking blk-mq timeout handling. The previous scheme relied on atomic bits, but it had races where we would think a request had timed out if it to reused at the wrong time. - null_blk now supports faking timeouts, to enable us to better exercise and test that functionality separately. From me. - Kill the separate atomic poll bit in the request struct. After this, we don't use the atomic bits on blk-mq anymore at all.

2018-01-10block: rearrange a few request fields for better cache layoutJens Axboe
Move completion related items (like the call single data) near the end of the struct, instead of mixing them in with the initial queueing related fields. Move queuelist below the bio structures. Then we have all queueing related bits in the first cache line. This yields a 1.5-2% increase in IOPS for a null_blk test, both for sync and for high thread count access. Sync test goes form 975K to 992K, 32-thread case from 20.8M to 21.2M IOPS.

2018-01-09blk-mq: remove REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE usages from blk-mqTejun Heo
After the recent updates to use generation number and state based synchronization, blk-mq no longer depends on REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE except to avoid firing the same timeout multiple times. Remove all REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE usages and use a new rq_flags flag RQF_MQ_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED to avoid firing the same timeout multiple times. This removes atomic bitops from hot paths too. v2: Removed blk_clear_rq_complete() from blk_mq_rq_timed_out(). v3: Added RQF_MQ_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED flag.

2018-01-09blk-mq: replace timeout synchronization with a RCU and generation based schemeTejun Heo
Currently, blk-mq timeout path synchronizes against the usual issue/completion path using a complex scheme involving atomic bitflags, REQ_ATOM_*, memory barriers and subtle memory coherence rules. Unfortunately, it contains quite a few holes. There's a complex dancing around REQ_ATOM_STARTED and REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE between issue/completion and timeout paths; however, they don't have a synchronization point across request recycle instances and it isn't clear what the barriers add. blk_mq_check_expired() can easily read STARTED from N-2'th iteration, deadline from N-1'th, blk_mark_rq_complete() against Nth instance. In fact, it's pretty easy to make blk_mq_check_expired() terminate a later instance of a request. If we induce 5 sec delay before time_after_eq() test in blk_mq_check_expired(), shorten the timeout to 2s, and issue back-to-back large IOs, blk-mq starts timing out requests spuriously pretty quickly. Nothing actually timed out. It just made the call on a recycle instance of a request and then terminated a later instance long after the original instance finished. The scenario isn't theoretical either. This patch replaces the broken synchronization mechanism with a RCU and generation number based one. 1. Each request has a u64 generation + state value, which can be updated only by the request owner. Whenever a request becomes in-flight, the generation number gets bumped up too. This provides the basis for the timeout path to distinguish different recycle instances of the request. Also, marking a request in-flight and setting its deadline are protected with a seqcount so that the timeout path can fetch both values coherently. 2. The timeout path fetches the generation, state and deadline. If the verdict is timeout, it records the generation into a dedicated request abortion field and does RCU wait. 3. The completion path is also protected by RCU (from the previous patch) and checks whether the current generation number and state match the abortion field. If so, it skips completion. 4. The timeout path, after RCU wait, scans requests again and terminates the ones whose generation and state still match the ones requested for abortion. By now, the timeout path knows that either the generation number and state changed if it lost the race or the completion will yield to it and can safely timeout the request. While it's more lines of code, it's conceptually simpler, doesn't depend on direct use of subtle memory ordering or coherence, and hopefully doesn't terminate the wrong instance. While this change makes REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE synchronization unnecessary between issue/complete and timeout paths, REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE isn't removed yet as it's still used in other places. Future patches will move all state tracking to the new mechanism and remove all bitops in the hot paths. Note that this patch adds a comment explaining a race condition in BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER path. The race has always been there and this patch doesn't change it. It's just documenting the existing race. v2: - Fixed BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER handling as pointed out by Jianchao. - s/request->gstate_seqc/request->gstate_seq/ as suggested by Peter. - READ_ONCE() added in blk_mq_rq_update_state() as suggested by Peter. v3: - Fixed possible extended seqcount / u64_stats_sync read looping spotted by Peter. - MQ_RQ_IDLE was incorrectly being set in complete_request instead of free_request. Fixed. v4: - Rebased on top of hctx_lock() refactoring patch. - Added comment explaining the use of hctx_lock() in completion path. v5: - Added comments requested by Bart. - Note the addition of BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER race condition in the commit message.

2018-01-05block: introduce zoned block devices zone write lockingChristoph Hellwig
Components relying only on the request_queue structure for accessing block devices (e.g. I/O schedulers) have a limited knowledged of the device characteristics. In particular, the device capacity cannot be easily discovered, which for a zoned block device also result in the inability to easily know the number of zones of the device (the zone size is indicated by the chunk_sectors field of the queue limits). Introduce the nr_zones field to the request_queue structure to simplify access to this information. Also, add the bitmap seq_zone_bitmap which indicates which zones of the device are sequential zones (write preferred or write required) and the bitmap seq_zones_wlock which indicates if a zone is write locked, that is, if a write request targeting a zone was dispatched to the device. These fields are initialized by the low level block device driver (sd.c for ZBC/ZAC disks). They are not initialized by stacking drivers (device mappers) handling zoned block devices (e.g. dm-linear). Using this, I/O schedulers can introduce zone write locking to control request dispatching to a zoned block device and avoid write request reordering by limiting to at most a single write request per zone outside of the scheduler at any time.

2017-12-18block: don't let passthrough IO go into .make_request_fn()Ming Lei
Commit a8821f3f3("block: Improvements to bounce-buffer handling") tries to make sure that the bio to .make_request_fn won't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES, but ignores that passthrough I/O can use blk_queue_bounce() too. Especially, passthrough IO may not be sector-aligned, and the check of 'sectors < bio_sectors(*bio_orig)' inside __blk_queue_bounce() may become true even though the max bvec number doesn't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES, then cause the bio splitted, and the original passthrough bio is submited to generic_make_request(). This patch fixes this issue by checking if the bio is passthrough IO, and use bio_kmalloc() to allocate the cloned passthrough bio.

2017-11-10block, scsi: Make SCSI quiesce and resume work reliablyBart Van Assche
The contexts from which a SCSI device can be quiesced or resumed are: * Writing into /sys/class/scsi_device/*/device/state. * SCSI parallel (SPI) domain validation. * The SCSI device power management methods. See also scsi_bus_pm_ops. It is essential during suspend and resume that neither the filesystem state nor the filesystem metadata in RAM changes. This is why while the hibernation image is being written or restored that SCSI devices are quiesced. The SCSI core quiesces devices through scsi_device_quiesce() and scsi_device_resume(). In the SDEV_QUIESCE state execution of non-preempt requests is deferred. This is realized by returning BLKPREP_DEFER from inside scsi_prep_state_check() for quiesced SCSI devices. Avoid that a full queue prevents power management requests to be submitted by deferring allocation of non-preempt requests for devices in the quiesced state. This patch has been tested by running the following commands and by verifying that after each resume the fio job was still running: for ((i=0; i<10; i++)); do ( cd /sys/block/md0/md && while true; do [ "$(<sync_action)" = "idle" ] && echo check > sync_action sleep 1 done ) & pids=($!) for d in /sys/class/block/sd*[a-z]; do bdev=${d#/sys/class/block/} hcil=$(readlink "$d/device") hcil=${hcil#../../../} echo 4 > "$d/queue/nr_requests" echo 1 > "/sys/class/scsi_device/$hcil/device/queue_depth" fio --name="$bdev" --filename="/dev/$bdev" --buffered=0 --bs=512 \ --rw=randread --ioengine=libaio --numjobs=4 --iodepth=16 \ --iodepth_batch=1 --thread --loops=$((2**31)) & pids+=($!) done sleep 1 echo "$(date) Hibernating ..." >>hibernate-test-log.txt systemctl hibernate sleep 10 kill "${pids[@]}" echo idle > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action wait echo "$(date) Done." >>hibernate-test-log.txt done Reported-by: Oleksandr Natalenko <oleksandr@natalenko.name> References: "I/O hangs after resuming from suspend-to-ram" (https://marc.info/?l=linux-block&m=150340235201348).

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-09-25blktrace: Fix potential deadlock between delete & sysfs opsWaiman Long
The lockdep code had reported the following unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(s_active#228); lock(&bdev->bd_mutex/1); lock(s_active#228); lock(&bdev->bd_mutex); *** DEADLOCK *** The deadlock may happen when one task (CPU1) is trying to delete a partition in a block device and another task (CPU0) is accessing tracing sysfs file (e.g. /sys/block/dm-1/trace/act_mask) in that partition. The s_active isn't an actual lock. It is a reference count (kn->count) on the sysfs (kernfs) file. Removal of a sysfs file, however, require a wait until all the references are gone. The reference count is treated like a rwsem using lockdep instrumentation code. The fact that a thread is in the sysfs callback method or in the ioctl call means there is a reference to the opended sysfs or device file. That should prevent the underlying block structure from being removed. Instead of using bd_mutex in the block_device structure, a new blk_trace_mutex is now added to the request_queue structure to protect access to the blk_trace structure.

2017-08-29smp: Avoid using two cache lines for struct call_single_dataYing Huang
struct call_single_data is used in IPIs to transfer information between CPUs. Its size is bigger than sizeof(unsigned long) and less than cache line size. Currently it is not allocated with any explicit alignment requirements. This makes it possible for allocated call_single_data to cross two cache lines, which results in double the number of the cache lines that need to be transferred among CPUs. This can be fixed by requiring call_single_data to be aligned with the size of call_single_data. Currently the size of call_single_data is the power of 2. If we add new fields to call_single_data, we may need to add padding to make sure the size of new definition is the power of 2 as well. Fortunately, this is enforced by GCC, which will report bad sizes. To set alignment requirements of call_single_data to the size of call_single_data, a struct definition and a typedef is used. To test the effect of the patch, I used the vm-scalability multiple thread swap test case (swap-w-seq-mt). The test will create multiple threads and each thread will eat memory until all RAM and part of swap is used, so that huge number of IPIs are triggered when unmapping memory. In the test, the throughput of memory writing improves ~5% compared with misaligned call_single_data, because of faster IPIs.

2017-08-24bsg-lib: fix kernel panic resulting from missing allocation of reply-bufferBenjamin Block
Since we split the scsi_request out of struct request bsg fails to provide a reply-buffer for the drivers. This was done via the pointer for sense-data, that is not preallocated anymore. Failing to allocate/assign it results in illegal dereferences because LLDs use this pointer unquestioned. An example panic on s390x, using the zFCP driver, looks like this (I had debugging on, otherwise NULL-pointer dereferences wouldn't even panic on s390x): Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference in virtual kernel address space Failing address: 6b6b6b6b6b6b6000 TEID: 6b6b6b6b6b6b6403 Fault in home space mode while using kernel ASCE.

2017-06-21blk-mq: fix performance regression with shared tagsJens Axboe
If we have shared tags enabled, then every IO completion will trigger a full loop of every queue belonging to a tag set, and every hardware queue for each of those queues, even if nothing needs to be done. This causes a massive performance regression if you have a lot of shared devices. Instead of doing this huge full scan on every IO, add an atomic counter to the main queue that tracks how many hardware queues have been marked as needing a restart. With that, we can avoid looking for restartable queues, if we don't have to. Max reports that this restores performance. Before this patch, 4K IOPS was limited to 22-23K IOPS. With the patch, we are running at 950-970K IOPS.

It is required that no dispatch can happen any more once blk_mq_quiesce_queue() returns, and we don't have such requirement on APIs of stopping queue. But blk_mq_quiesce_queue() still may not block/drain dispatch in the the case of BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN, so use the new introduced flag of QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED and evaluate it inside RCU read-side critical sections for fixing this issue. Also blk_mq_quiesce_queue() is implemented via stopping queue, which limits its uses, and easy to cause race, because any queue restart in other paths may break blk_mq_quiesce_queue().

2017-06-09block: introduce new block status code typeChristoph Hellwig
Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings. This patch instead introduces a new blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific status codes and explicitly explains their meaning. Helpers to convert from and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later. For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging fruite to improve it. blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

This keeps dax details out of the block layer and lets the DAX core be built as a module in the FS_DAX=n case. Filesystems need to include dax.h to call bdev_dax_supported().

Pull block fixes and updates from Jens Axboe: "Some fixes and followup features/changes that should go in, in this merge window. This contains: - Two fixes for lightnvm from Javier, fixing problems in the new code merge previously in this merge window. - A fix from Jan for the backing device changes, fixing an issue in NFS that causes a failure to mount on certain setups. - A change from Christoph, cleaning up the blk-mq init and exit request paths. - Remove elevator_change(), which is now unused. From Bart. - A fix for queue operation invocation on a dead queue, from Bart. - A series fixing up mtip32xx for blk-mq scheduling, removing a bandaid we previously had in place for this. From me. - A regression fix for this series, fixing a case where we wait on workqueue flushing from an invalid (non-blocking) context. From me. - A fix/optimization from Ming, ensuring that we don't both quiesce and freeze a queue at the same time. - A fix from Peter on lock ordering for CPU hotplug. Not a real problem right now, but will be once the CPU hotplug rework goes in. - A series from Omar, cleaning up out blk-mq debugfs support, and adding support for exporting info from schedulers in debugfs as well. This is really useful in debugging stalls or livelocks.
