482cf79cdf writeback, blkcg: propagate non-root blkcg congestion state
Now that bdi layer can handle per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested state,
blk_{set|clear}_congested() can propagate non-root blkcg congestion
state to them.

This can be easily achieved by disabling the root_rl tests in
blk_{set|clear}_congested().  Note that we still need those tests when
!CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK as otherwise we'll end up flipping root blkcg
wb's congestion state for events happening on other blkcgs.

v2: Updated for bdi_writeback_congested.

d40f75a06d writeback, blkcg: restructure blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested()
blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() take @q and set or clear,
respectively, the congestion state of its bdi's root wb.  Because bdi
used to be able to handle congestion state only on the root wb, the
callers of those functions tested whether the congestion is on the
root blkcg and skipped if not.

This is cumbersome and makes implementation of per cgroup
bdi_writeback congestion state propagation difficult.  This patch
renames blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() to
blk_{set|clear}_congested(), and makes them take request_list instead
of request_queue and test whether the specified request_list is the
root one before updating bdi_writeback congestion state.  This makes
the tests in the callers unnecessary and simplifies them.

As there are no external users of these functions, the definitions are
moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to block/blk-core.c.

This patch doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior difference.

ce7acfeaf0 writeback, blkcg: associate each blkcg_gq with the corresponding bdi_writeback_congested
A blkg (blkcg_gq) can be congested and decongested independently from
other blkgs on the same request_queue.  Accordingly, for cgroup
writeback support, the congestion status at bdi (backing_dev_info)
should be split and updated separately from matching blkg's.

This patch prepares by adding blkg->wb_congested and associating a
blkg with its matching per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested on creation.

v2: Updated to associate bdi_writeback_congested instead of
    bdi_writeback.

52ebea749a writeback: make backing_dev_info host cgroup-specific bdi_writebacks
For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi
(backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb
(bdi_writeback).  This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host
multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks).

On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg.  This allows
using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every
memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a
dedicated wb to each memcg.  This means that there may be multiple
wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg.  As congested state is per
blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested
state.  This is achieved by tracking congested state via
bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg.

bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup.
cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or
looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page
being dirtied or current task.  Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree
by its memcg id.  Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be
retrieved using inode_to_wb().

Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all
pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb.

v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside
    mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL.
    Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed.  Both
    detected by the kbuild bot.

v2: Updated so that wb association is per inode and wb is per memcg
    rather than blkcg.

66114cad64 writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h
With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.

This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it.  c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly.  This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.

v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

4452226ea2 writeback: move backing_dev_info->state into bdi_writeback
Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear.  For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi.  To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.

This patch moves bdi->state into wb.

* enum bdi_state is renamed to wb_state and the prefix of all enums is
  changed from BDI_ to WB_.

* Explicit zeroing of bdi->state is removed without adding zeoring of
  wb->state as the whole data structure is zeroed on init anyway.

* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
  uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
  introducing no behavior changes.

1d933cf096 blkcg: implement bio_associate_blkcg()

ec13b1d6f0 blkcg: always create the blkcg_gq for the root blkcg
Currently, blkcg does a minor optimization where the root blkcg is
created when the first blkcg policy is activated on a queue and
destroyed on the deactivation of the last.  On systems where blkcg is
configured but not used, this saves one blkcg_gq struct per queue.  On
systems where blkcg is actually used, there's no difference.  The only
case where this can lead to any meaninful, albeit still minute, save
in memory consumption is when all blkcg policies are deactivated after
being widely used in the system, which is a hihgly unlikely scenario.

The conditional existence of root blkcg_gq has already created several
bugs in blkcg and became an issue once again for the new per-cgroup
wb_congested mechanism for cgroup writeback support leading to a NULL
dereference when no blkcg policy is active.  This is really not worth
bothering with.  This patch makes blkcg always allocate and link the
root blkcg_gq and release it only on queue destruction.

5f1b670d0b block, dm: don't copy bios for request clones
Currently dm-multipath has to clone the bios for every request sent
to the lower devices, which wastes cpu cycles and ties down memory.

This patch instead adds a new REQ_CLONE flag that instructs req_bio_endio
to not complete bios attached to a request, which we set on clone
requests similar to bios in a flush sequence.  With this change I/O
errors on a path failure only get propagated to dm-multipath, which
can then either resubmit the I/O or complete the bios on the original
request.

I've done some basic testing of this on a Linux target with ALUA support,
and it survives path failures during I/O nicely.

326e1dbb57 block: remove management of bi_remaining when restoring original bi_end_io
Commit c4cf5261 ("bio: skip atomic inc/dec of ->bi_remaining for
non-chains") regressed all existing callers that followed this pattern:
 1) saving a bio's original bi_end_io
 2) wiring up an intermediate bi_end_io
 3) restoring the original bi_end_io from intermediate bi_end_io
 4) calling bio_endio() to execute the restored original bi_end_io

The regression was due to BIO_CHAIN only ever getting set if
bio_inc_remaining() is called.  For the above pattern it isn't set until
step 3 above (step 2 would've needed to establish BIO_CHAIN).  As such
the first bio_endio(), in step 2 above, never decremented __bi_remaining
before calling the intermediate bi_end_io -- leaving __bi_remaining with
the value 1 instead of 0.  When bio_inc_remaining() occurred during step
3 it brought it to a value of 2.  When the second bio_endio() was
called, in step 4 above, it should've called the original bi_end_io but
it didn't because there was an extra reference that wasn't dropped (due
to atomic operations being optimized away since BIO_CHAIN wasn't set
upfront).

Fix this issue by removing the __bi_remaining management complexity for
all callers that use the above pattern -- bio_chain() is the only
interface that _needs_ to be concerned with __bi_remaining.  For the
above pattern callers just expect the bi_end_io they set to get called!
Remove bio_endio_nodec() and also remove all bio_inc_remaining() calls
that aren't associated with the bio_chain() interface.

Also, the bio_inc_remaining() interface has been moved local to bio.c.

b04a5636a6 block: replace trylock with mutex_lock in blkdev_reread_part()
The only possible problem of using mutex_lock() instead of trylock
is about deadlock.

If there aren't any locks held before calling blkdev_reread_part(),
deadlock can't be caused by this conversion.

If there are locks held before calling blkdev_reread_part(),
and if these locks arn't required in open, close handler and I/O
path, deadlock shouldn't be caused too.

Both user space's ioctl(BLKRRPART) and md_setup_drive() from
init/do_mounts_md.c belongs to the 1st case, so the conversion is safe
for the two cases.

For loop, the previous patches in this pathset has fixed the ABBA lock
dependency, so the conversion is OK.

For nbd, tx_lock is held when calling the function:

	- both open and release won't hold the lock
	- when blkdev_reread_part() is run, I/O thread has been stopped
	already, so tx_lock won't be acquired in I/O path at that time.
	- so the conversion won't cause deadlock for nbd

For dasd, both dasd_open(), dasd_release() and request function don't
acquire any mutex/semphone, so the conversion should be safe.

e6c4438ba7 blk-mq: fix plugging in blk_sq_make_request
The following appears in blk_sq_make_request:

	/*
	 * If we have multiple hardware queues, just go directly to
	 * one of those for sync IO.
	 */

We clearly don't have multiple hardware queues, here!  This comment was
introduced with this commit 07068d5b8e (blk-mq: split make request
handler for multi and single queue):

    We want slightly different behavior from them:

    - On single queue devices, we currently use the per-process plug
      for deferred IO and for merging.

    - On multi queue devices, we don't use the per-process plug, but
      we want to go straight to hardware for SYNC IO.

The old code had this:

        use_plug = !is_flush_fua && ((q->nr_hw_queues == 1) || !is_sync);

and that was converted to:

	use_plug = !is_flush_fua && !is_sync;

which is not equivalent.  For the single queue case, that second half of
the && expression is always true.  So, what I think was actually inteded
follows (and this more closely matches what is done in blk_queue_bio).

V2: delete the 'likely', which should not be a big deal

so we don't need to always introduce this atomic operation as part of
ending IO.

Add a helper to elevate the bi_remaining count, and flag the bio as
now actually needing the decrement at end_io time. Rename the field
to __bi_remaining to catch any current users of this doing the
incrementing manually.

For high IOPS workloads, this reduces the overhead of bio_endio()
substantially.

569fd0ce96 blk-mq: fix iteration of busy bitmap
Commit 889fa31f00 was a bit too eager in reducing the loop count,
so we ended up missing queues in some configurations. Ensure that
our division rounds up, so that's not the case.

  contains:

   - An optimization that speeds up queue runs on blk-mq, especially for
     the case where there's a large difference between nr_cpu_ids and
     the actual mapped software queues on a hardware queue.  From Chong
     Yuan.

   - Honor node local allocations for requests on legacy devices.  From
     David Rientjes.

   - Cleanup of blk_mq_rq_to_pdu() from me.

   - exit_aio() fixup from me, greatly speeding up exiting multiple IO
     contexts off exit_group().  For my particular test case, fio exit
     took ~6 seconds.  A typical case of both exposing RCU grace periods
     to user space, and serializing exit of them.

   - Make blk_mq_queue_enter() honor the gfp mask passed in, so we only
     wait if __GFP_WAIT is set.  From Keith Busch.

   - blk-mq exports and two added helpers from Mike Snitzer, which will
     be used by the dm-mq code.

   - Cleanups of blk-mq queue init from Wei Fang and Xiaoguang Wang"

889fa31f00 blk-mq: reduce unnecessary software queue looping
In flush_busy_ctxs() and blk_mq_hctx_has_pending(), regardless of how many
ctxs assigned to one hctx, they will all loop hctx->ctx_map.map_size
times. Here hctx->ctx_map.map_size is a const ALIGN(nr_cpu_ids, 8) / 8.
Especially, flush_busy_ctxs() is in hot code path. And it's unnecessary.
Change ->map_size to contain the actually mapped software queues, so we
only loop for as many iterations as we have to.

And remove cpumask setting and nr_ctx count in blk_mq_init_cpu_queues()
since they are all re-done in blk_mq_map_swqueue().
blk_mq_map_swqueue().

ac2111753c blk-mq: initialize 'struct request' and associated data to zero
Jan Engelhardt reports a strange oops with an invalid ->sense_buffer
pointer in scsi_init_cmd_errh() with the blk-mq code.

The sense_buffer pointer should have been initialized by the call to
scsi_init_request() from blk_mq_init_rq_map(), but there seems to be
some non-repeatable memory corruptor.

This patch makes sure we initialize the whole struct request allocation
(and the associated 'struct scsi_cmnd' for the SCSI case) to zero, by
using __GFP_ZERO in the allocation.  The old code initialized a couple
of individual fields, leaving the rest undefined (although many of them
are then initialized in later phases, like blk_mq_rq_ctx_init() etc.

It's not entirely clear why this matters, but it's the rigth thing to do
regardless, and with 4.0 imminent this is the defensive "let's just make
sure everything is initialized properly" patch.

e9637415a9 block: fix blk_stack_limits() regression due to lcm() change
Linux 3.19 commit 69c953c ("lib/lcm.c: lcm(n,0)=lcm(0,n) is 0, not n")
caused blk_stack_limits() to not properly stack queue_limits for stacked
devices (e.g. DM).

Fix this regression by establishing lcm_not_zero() and switching
blk_stack_limits() over to using it.

DM uses blk_set_stacking_limits() to establish the initial top-level
queue_limits that are then built up based on underlying devices' limits
using blk_stack_limits().  In the case of optimal_io_size (io_opt)
blk_set_stacking_limits() establishes a default value of 0.  With commit
69c953c, lcm(0, n) is no longer n, which compromises proper stacking of
the underlying devices' io_opt.

Test:
$ modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=10 num_tgts=1 opt_blks=1536
$ cat /sys/block/sde/queue/optimal_io_size
786432
$ dmsetup create node --table "0 100 linear /dev/sde 0"

Before this fix:
$ cat /sys/block/dm-5/queue/optimal_io_size
0

After this fix:
$ cat /sys/block/dm-5/queue/optimal_io_size
786432

blk_init_rl() allocates a mempool using mempool_create_node() with node
local memory.  This only allocates the mempool and element list locally
to the requeue queue node.

What we really want to do is allocate the request itself local to the
queue.  To do this, we need our own alloc and free functions that will
allocate from request_cachep and pass the request queue node in to prefer
node local memory.

bc188d818e blkmq: Fix NULL pointer deref when all reserved tags in
When allocating from the reserved tags pool, bt_get() is called with
a NULL hctx.  If all tags are in use, the hw queue is kicked to push
out any pending IO, potentially freeing tags, and tag allocation is
retried.  The problem is that blk_mq_run_hw_queue() doesn't check for
a NULL hctx.  So we avoid it with a simple NULL hctx test.

b62c21b71f blk-mq: add blk_mq_init_allocated_queue and export blk_mq_register_disk
Add a variant of blk_mq_init_queue that allows a previously allocated
queue to be initialized.  blk_mq_init_allocated_queue models
blk_init_allocated_queue -- which was also created for DM's use.

DM's approach to device creation requires a placeholder request_queue be
allocated for use with alloc_dev() but the decision about what type of
request_queue will be ultimately created is deferred until all component
devices referenced in the DM table are processed to determine the table
type (request-based, blk-mq request-based, or bio-based).

Also, because of DM's late finalization of the request_queue type
the call to blk_mq_register_disk() doesn't happen during alloc_dev().
Must export blk_mq_register_disk() so that DM can backfill the 'mq' dir
once the blk-mq queue is fully allocated.

045c47ca30 blk-throttle: check stats_cpu before reading it from sysfs
When reading blkio.throttle.io_serviced in a recently created blkio
cgroup, it's possible to race against the creation of a throttle policy,
which delays the allocation of stats_cpu.

Like other functions in the throttle code, just checking for a NULL
stats_cpu prevents the following oops caused by that race.

3e12cefbe1 Merge branch 'for-3.20/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull core block IO changes from Jens Axboe:
 "This contains:

   - A series from Christoph that cleans up and refactors various parts
     of the REQ_BLOCK_PC handling.  Contributions in that series from
     Dongsu Park and Kent Overstreet as well.

   - CFQ:
        - A bug fix for cfq for realtime IO scheduling from Jeff Moyer.
        - A stable patch fixing a potential crash in CFQ in OOM
          situations.  From Konstantin Khlebnikov.

   - blk-mq:
        - Add support for tag allocation policies, from Shaohua. This is
          a prep patch enabling libata (and other SCSI parts) to use the
          blk-mq tagging, instead of rolling their own.
        - Various little tweaks from Keith and Mike, in preparation for
          DM blk-mq support.
        - Minor little fixes or tweaks from me.
        - A double free error fix from Tony Battersby.

   - The partition 4k issue fixes from Matthew and Boaz.

   - Add support for zero+unprovision for blkdev_issue_zeroout() from
     Martin"

Linus Torvalds
6bec003528 Merge branch 'for-3.20/bdi' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull backing device changes from Jens Axboe:
 "This contains a cleanup of how the backing device is handled, in
  preparation for a rework of the life time rules.  In this part, the
  most important change is to split the unrelated nommu mmap flags from
  it, but also removing a backing_dev_info pointer from the
  address_space (and inode), and a cleanup of other various minor bits.

  Christoph did all the work here, I just fixed an oops with pages that
  have a swap backing.  Arnd fixed a missing export, and Oleg killed the
  lustre backing_dev_info from staging.  Last patch was from Al,
  unexporting parts that are now no longer needed outside"

* 'for-3.20/bdi' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  Make super_blocks and sb_lock static
  mtd: export new mtd_mmap_capabilities
  fs: make inode_to_bdi() handle NULL inode
  staging/lustre/llite: get rid of backing_dev_info
  fs: remove default_backing_dev_info
  fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to default_backing_dev_info
  nfs: don't call bdi_unregister
  ceph: remove call to bdi_unregister
  fs: remove mapping->backing_dev_info
  fs: export inode_to_bdi and use it in favor of mapping->backing_dev_info
  nilfs2: set up s_bdi like the generic mount_bdev code
  block_dev: get bdev inode bdi directly from the block device
  block_dev: only write bdev inode on close
  fs: introduce f_op->mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap support
  fs: kill BDI_CAP_SWAP_BACKED
  fs: deduplicate noop_backing_dev_info
