| * block: fix segment calculation for passthrough IOMing Lei2019-03-061-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blk_recount_segments() can be called in bio_add_pc_page() for calculating how many segments this bio will has after one page is added to this bio. If the resulted segment number is beyond the queue limit, the added page will be removed. The try-and-fix policy requires blk_recount_segments(__blk_recalc_rq_segments) to not consider the segment number limit. Unfortunately bvec_split_segs() does check this limit, and causes small segment number returned to bio_add_pc_page(), then page still may be added to the bio even though segment number limit becomes broken. Fixes this issue by not considering segment number limit when calcualting bio's segment number.

Since the first one, we've added basic unit testing of the three system calls, that resides in liburing like the other unit tests that we have so far. It'll take a while to get full coverage of it, but we're working towards it. I've also added two basic test programs to tools/io_uring. One uses the raw interface and has support for all the various features that io_uring supports outside of standard IO, like fixed files, fixed IO buffers, and polled IO. The other uses the liburing API, and is a simplified version of cp(1). This adds support for a new IO interface, io_uring. io_uring allows an application to communicate with the kernel through two rings, the submission queue (SQ) and completion queue (CQ) ring. This allows for very efficient handling of IOs, see the v5 posting for some basic numbers: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20190116175003.17880-1-axboe@kernel.dk/ Outside of just efficiency, the interface is also flexible and extendable, and allows for future use cases like the upcoming NVMe key-value store API, networked IO, and so on. It also supports async buffered IO, something that we've always failed to support in the kernel. Outside of basic IO features, it supports async polled IO as well. This particular feature has already been tested at Facebook months ago for flash storage boxes, with 25-33% improvements. It makes polled IO actually useful for real world use cases, where even basic flash sees a nice win in terms of efficiency, latency, and performance. These boxes were IOPS bound before, now they are not. This series adds three new system calls. One for setting up an io_uring instance (io_uring_setup(2)), one for submitting/completing IO (io_uring_enter(2)), and one for aux functions like registrating file sets, buffers, etc (io_uring_register(2)). Through the help of Arnd, I've coordinated the syscall numbers so merge on that front should be painless. Jon did a writeup of the interface a while back, which (except for minor details that have been tweaked) is still accurate. Find that here: https://lwn.net/Articles/776703/ Huge thanks to Al Viro for helping getting the reference cycle code correct, and to Jann Horn for his extensive reviews focused on both security and bugs in general. There's a userspace library that provides basic functionality for applications that don't need or want to care about how to fiddle with the rings directly. It has helpers to allow applications to easily set up an io_uring instance, and submit/complete IO through it without knowing about the intricacies of the rings. It also includes man pages (thanks to Jeff Moyer), and will continue to grow support helper functions and features as time progresses. Find it here: git://git.kernel.dk/liburing Fio has full support for the raw interface, both in the form of an IO engine (io_uring), but also with a small test application (t/io_uring) that can exercise and benchmark the interface" * tag 'io_uring-2019-03-06' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: io_uring: add a few test tools io_uring: allow workqueue item to handle multiple buffered requests io_uring: add support for IORING_OP_POLL io_uring: add io_kiocb ref count io_uring: add submission polling io_uring: add file set registration net: split out functions related to registering inflight socket files io_uring: add support for pre-mapped user IO buffers block: implement bio helper to add iter bvec pages to bio io_uring: batch io_kiocb allocation io_uring: use fget/fput_many() for file references fs: add fget_many() and fput_many() io_uring: support for IO polling io_uring: add fsync support Add io_uring IO interface
| * | | block: implement bio helper to add iter bvec pages to bioJens Axboe2019-02-281-8/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For an ITER_BVEC, we can just iterate the iov and add the pages to the bio directly. For now, we grab a reference to those pages, and release them normally on IO completion. This isn't really needed for the normal case of O_DIRECT from/to a file, but some of the more esoteric use cases (like splice(2)) will unconditionally put the pipe buffer pages when the buffers are released. Until we can manage that case properly, ITER_BVEC pages are treated like normal pages in terms of reference counting.

Now only blk_recount_segments() and blk_recalc_rq_segments() use this flag. Basically blk_recount_segments() is bypassed in fast path given BIO_SEG_VALID is set in blk_queue_split(). For another user of blk_recalc_rq_segments(): - run in partial completion branch of blk_update_request, which is an unusual case - run in blk_cloned_rq_check_limits(), still not a big problem if the flag is killed since dm-rq is the only user.

Given it is just one mechannical & simple change on all bio_for_each_segment_all() users, this patch does tree-wide change in one single patch, so that we can avoid to use a temporary helper for this conversion.

Case (b) is checked by comparing the new request for Q with the last request dispatched, assuming that the latter necessarily belonged to the in-service queue. Unfortunately, this assumption is no longer always correct, since commit d0edc2473be9 ("block, bfq: inject other-queue I/O into seeky idle queues on NCQ flash"). When the assumption does not hold, queues that must not be merged may be merged, causing unexpected loss of control on per-queue service guarantees. This commit solves this problem by adding an extra field, which stores the actual last request dispatched for the in-service queue, and by using this new field to correctly check case (b).

This list is used to detect whether there are active queues with differentiated weights. The weight of a queue is removed from the list when both the following two conditions become true: (1) the bfq_queue is flagged as inactive (2) the has no in-flight request any longer; Unfortunately, in the rare cases where condition (2) becomes true before condition (1), the removal fails, because the function to remove the weight of the queue (bfq_weights_tree_remove) is rightly invoked in the path that deactivates the bfq_queue, but mistakenly invoked *before* the function that actually performs the deactivation (bfq_deactivate_bfqq). This commits moves the invocation of bfq_weights_tree_remove for condition (1) to after bfq_deactivate_bfqq. As a consequence of this move, it is necessary to add a further reference to the queue when the weight of a queue is added, because the queue might otherwise be freed before bfq_weights_tree_remove is invoked. This commit adds this reference and makes all related modifications. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

If the burst is large, then no queue in the burst is granted - either I/O-dispatch plugging when the queue remains temporarily idle while in service; - or weight raising, because it causes even longer plugging. In fact, such a plugging tends to lower throughput, while these bursts are typically due to applications or services that spawn multiple processes, to reach a common goal as soon as possible. Examples are a "git grep" or the booting of a system. Unfortunately, disabling plugging may cause a loss of service guarantees in asymmetric scenarios, i.e., if queue weights are differentiated or if more than one group is active. This commit addresses this issue by no longer disabling I/O-dispatch plugging for queues in large bursts.

It may be dome for two reasons: either to boost throughput, or to preserve the bandwidth share of the in-service queue. In the first case, if the I/O of the in-service queue, when it finally arrives, consists only of one small I/O request, then it makes sense to plug even the I/O of the in-service queue. In fact, serving such a small request immediately is likely to lower throughput instead of boosting it, whereas waiting a little bit is likely to let that request grow, thanks to request merging, and become more profitable in terms of throughput (this is likely to happen exactly because the I/O of the queue has been detected to boost throughput). On the opposite end, if I/O dispatching is being plugged only to preserve the bandwidth of the in-service queue, then it would be better not to plug also the I/O of the in-service queue, because such a plugging is likely to cause only loss of bandwidth for the queue. Unfortunately, no distinction is made between the two cases, and the I/O of the in-service queue is always plugged in case just a small I/O request arrives. This commit draws this missing distinction and does not perform harmful plugging. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

A case where asymmetry is particularly strong is when some active bfq_queues belong to a higher-priority class than some other active bfq_queues. Unfortunately, this important case is not considered at all in the code for detecting asymmetric scenarios. This commit adds the missing logic.

Then, if such I/O actually arrives soon, bfq preempts the new in-service bfq_queue so as to give the previous queue a chance to go on being served (in case the previous queue should actually be the one to be served, according to its timestamps). However, the in-service bfq_queue, say Q, may also be without further budget when it remains also pending I/O. Since bfq changes budgets dynamically to fit the needs of bfq_queues, this happens more often than one may expect. If this happens, then there is no point in trying to go on serving Q when new I/O arrives for it soon: Q would be expired immediately after being selected for service. This would only cause useless overhead. This commit avoids such a useless selection. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

In particular, when a bfq_queue remains without outstanding I/O requests, bfq computes the minimum time instant, named soft_rt_next_start, at which the next request of the queue may arrive for the queue to be deemed as soft real time. Unfortunately this filtering may cause problems with a queue in interactive weight raising. In fact, such a queue may be conveying the I/O needed to load a soft real-time application. The latter will actually exhibit a soft real-time I/O pattern after it finally starts doing its job. But, if soft_rt_next_start is updated for an interactive bfq_queue, and the queue has received a lot of service before remaining with no outstanding request (likely to happen on a fast device), then soft_rt_next_start is assigned such a high value that, for a very long time, the queue is prevented from being possibly considered as soft real time.
