* blk-mq: don't allocate driver tag upfront for flush rqMing Lei2017-11-041-9/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea behind it is simple: 1) for none scheduler, driver tag has to be borrowed for flush rq, otherwise we may run out of tag, and that causes an IO hang. And get/put driver tag is actually noop for none, so reordering tags isn't necessary at all. 2) for a real I/O scheduler, we need not allocate a driver tag upfront for flush rq. It works just fine to follow the same approach as normal requests: allocate driver tag for each rq just before calling ->queue_rq(). One driver visible change is that the driver tag isn't shared in the flush request sequence. That won't be a problem, since we always do that in legacy path. Then flush rq need not be treated specially wrt. get/put driver tag. This cleans up the code - for instance, reorder_tags_to_front() can be removed, and we needn't worry about request ordering in dispatch list for avoiding I/O deadlock. Also we have to put the driver tag before requeueing. Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

* block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions indexChristoph Hellwig2017-08-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code). For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists once per block device. But given that the block layer also does partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is used for said remapping in generic_make_request. Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all over the stack.

* block: introduce new block status code typeChristoph Hellwig2017-06-091-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

After some investigation I found out we allocate elevator specific data in __get_request() only for non-flush requests.

So my patch is just wrong and not easy to fix since at the time __get_request() is called we are not sure whether the flush machinery will be used in the end. Jens, please revert 1b2ff19e6a957b1ef0f365ad331b608af80e932e. Thanks! I'm somewhat surprised that you can reliably hit the race where flushing gets disabled for the device just while the request is in flight. But I guess during boot it makes some sense. -- So let's just revert it, we can fix the queue run manually after the fact. This race is rare enough that it didn't trigger in testing, it requires the specific disable-while-in-flight scenario to trigger.
* blk-flush: Queue through IO scheduler when flush not requiredJan Kara2015-11-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently blk_insert_flush() just adds flush request to q->queue_head when flush is not required. That completely bypasses IO scheduler so e.g. CFQ can be idling waiting for new request to arrive and will idle through the whole window unnecessarily. Luckily this only happens in rare cases as usually checks in generic_make_request_checks() clear FLUSH and FUA flags early if they are not needed. When no flushing is actually required, we can easily fix the problem by properly queueing the request through the IO scheduler. Ideally IO scheduler should be also made aware of requests queued via blk_flush_queue_rq(). However inserting flush request through IO scheduler can have unwanted side-effects since due to flush batching delaying the flush request in IO scheduler will delay all flush requests possibly coming from other processes. So we keep adding the request directly to q->queue_head. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
* blk-mq: fix race between timeout and freeing requestMing Lei2015-08-151-1/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Inside timeout handler, blk_mq_tag_to_rq() is called to retrieve the request from one tag. This way is obviously wrong because the request can be freed any time and some fiedds of the request can't be trusted, then kernel oops might be triggered[1]. Currently wrt. blk_mq_tag_to_rq(), the only special case is that the flush request can share same tag with the request cloned from, and the two requests can't be active at the same time, so this patch fixes the above issue by updating tags->rqs[tag] with the active request(either flush rq or the request cloned from) of the tag. Also blk_mq_tag_to_rq() gets much simplified with this patch. Given blk_mq_tag_to_rq() is mainly for drivers and the caller must make sure the request can't be freed, so in bt_for_each() this helper is replaced with tags->rqs[tag].

* blk-mq: support per-distpatch_queue flush machineryMing Lei2014-09-251-7/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch supports to run one single flush machinery for each blk-mq dispatch queue, so that: - current init_request and exit_request callbacks can cover flush request too, then the buggy copying way of initializing flush request's pdu can be fixed - flushing performance gets improved in case of multi hw-queue In fio sync write test over virtio-blk(4 hw queues, ioengine=sync, iodepth=64, numjobs=4, bs=4K), it is observed that througput gets increased a lot over my test environment: - throughput: +70% in case of virtio-blk over null_blk - throughput: +30% in case of virtio-blk over SSD image The multi virtqueue feature isn't merged to QEMU yet, and patches for the feature can be found in below tree: git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ming/qemu.git v2.1.0-mq.4 And simply passing 'num_queues=4 vectors=5' should be enough to enable multi queue(quad queue) feature for QEMU virtio-blk.

* block: introduce 'blk_mq_ctx' parameter to blk_get_flush_queueMing Lei2014-09-251-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds 'blk_mq_ctx' parameter to blk_get_flush_queue(), so that this function can find the corresponding blk_flush_queue bound with current mq context since the flush queue will become per hw-queue. For legacy queue, the parameter can be simply 'NULL'. For multiqueue case, the parameter should be set as the context from which the related request is originated. With this context info, the hw queue and related flush queue can be found easily. Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
