* block: enumify ELEVATOR_*_MERGEChristoph Hellwig2017-02-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Switch these constants to an enum, and make let the compiler ensure that all callers of blk_try_merge and elv_merge handle all potential values. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
* block: free merged request in the callerJens Axboe2017-02-031-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we end up doing a request-to-request merge when we have completed a bio-to-request merge, we free the request from deep down in that path. For blk-mq-sched, the merge path has to hold the appropriate lock, but we don't need it for freeing the request. And in fact holding the lock is problematic, since we are now calling the mq sched put_rq_private() hook with the lock held. Other call paths do not hold this lock. Fix this inconsistency by ensuring that the caller frees a merged request. Then we can do it outside of the lock, making it both more efficient and fixing the blk-mq-sched problem of invoking parts of the scheduler with an unknown lock state.

* blk-mq-sched: bypass the scheduler for flushes entirelyOmar Sandoval2017-02-031-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | There's a weird inconsistency that flushes are mostly hidden from the scheduler, but it needs to be aware of them in ->insert_requests(). Instead of having every scheduler call blk_mq_sched_bypass_insert(), let's do it in the common framework. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
* block: introduce blk_rq_is_passthroughChristoph Hellwig2017-01-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | This can be used to check for fs vs non-fs requests and basically removes all knowledge of BLOCK_PC specific from the block layer, as well as preparing for removing the cmd_type field in struct request.

* blk-mq-sched: change ->dispatch_requests() to ->dispatch_request()Jens Axboe2017-01-271-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we invoke dispatch_requests(), the scheduler empties everything into the passed in list. This isn't always a good thing, since it means that we remove items that we could have potentially merged with. Change the function to dispatch single requests at the time. If we do that, we can backoff exactly at the point where the device can't consume more IO, and leave the rest with the scheduler for better merging and future dispatch decision making.

* mq-deadline: add blk-mq adaptation of the deadline IO schedulerJens Axboe2017-01-171-0/+553
This is basically identical to deadline-iosched, except it registers as a MQ capable scheduler. This is still a single queue design. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com> Reviewed-by: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@sandisk.com> Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com>
