blk_throtl_exit() frees the throttle data hanging off the queue
in blk_cleanup_queue(), but blk_put_queue() will indirectly
dereference this data when calling blk_sync_queue() which in
turns calls throtl_shutdown_timer_wq().
Fix this by moving the freeing of the throttle data to when
the queue is truly being released, and post the call to
blk_sync_queue().

I have some systems which need legacy sysfs due to old tools that are
making assumptions that a directory can never be a symlink to another
directory, and it's a big hazzle to compile separate kernels for them.
This patch turns CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED into a run time option
that can be switched on/off the kernel command line. This way
the same binary can be used in both cases with just a option
on the command line.
The old CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 option is still there to set
the default. I kept the weird name to not break existing
config files.
Also the compat code can be still completely disabled by undefining
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_SWITCH -- just the optimizer takes
care of this now instead of lots of ifdefs. This makes the code
look nicer.
v2: This is an updated version on top of Kay's patch to only
handle the block devices. I tested it on my old systems
and that seems to work.

All the blkdev_issue_* helpers can only sanely be used for synchronous
caller. To issue cache flushes or barriers asynchronously the caller needs
to set up a bio by itself with a completion callback to move the asynchronous
state machine ahead. So drop the BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag that is always
specified when calling blkdev_issue_* and also remove the now unused flags
argument to blkdev_issue_flush and blkdev_issue_zeroout. For
blkdev_issue_discard we need to keep it for the secure discard flag, which
gains a more descriptive name and loses the bitops vs flag confusion.

Currently __blk_rq_prep_clone() copies only REQ_WRITE and REQ_DISCARD.
There's no reason to omit other command flags and REQ_FUA needs to be
copied to implement FUA support in request-based dm.
REQ_COMMON_MASK which specifies flags to be copied from bio to request
already identifies all the command flags. Define REQ_CLONE_MASK to be
the same as REQ_COMMON_MASK for clarity and make __blk_rq_prep_clone()
copy all flags in the mask.

followed bio->bi_bdev->bd_disk ending up being issued w/ mismatching

While completing a request from a REQ_FLUSH/FUA sequence, another
request can be pushed to the request queue. If a driver tests
elv_queue_empty() before completing a request and runs the queue again
only if the queue wasn't empty, this may lead to hang. Please note
that most drivers either kick the queue unconditionally or test queue
emptiness after completing the current request and don't have this
problem.
This patch removes this possibility by making REQ_FLUSH/FUA sequence
code kick the queue if the queue was empty before completing a request
from REQ_FLUSH/FUA sequence.

There are a number of make_request based drivers which don't support
cache flushes. Filter out flush bio's in __generic_make_request() so
that they don't have to worry about them. All FLUSH/FUA requests with
data are converted to regular IO requests and empty ones are completed
immediately.

Now that the backend conversion is complete, export sequenced
FLUSH/FUA capability through REQ_FLUSH/FUA flags. REQ_FLUSH means the
device cache should be flushed before executing the request. REQ_FUA
means that the data in the request should be on non-volatile media on
completion.
Block layer will choose the correct way of implementing the semantics
and execute it. The request may be passed to the device directly if
the device can handle it; otherwise, it will be sequenced using one or
more proxy requests. Devices will never see REQ_FLUSH and/or FUA
which it doesn't support.
Also, unlike the original REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA requests are
never failed with -EOPNOTSUPP. If the underlying device doesn't
support FLUSH/FUA, the block layer simply make those noop. IOW, it no
longer distinguishes between writeback cache which doesn't support
cache flush and writethrough/no cache. Devices which have WB cache
w/o flush are very difficult to come by these days and there's nothing
much we can do anyway, so it doesn't make sense to require everyone to
implement -EOPNOTSUPP handling. This will simplify filesystems and
block drivers as they can drop -EOPNOTSUPP retry logic for barriers.
* QUEUE_ORDERED_* are removed and QUEUE_FSEQ_* are moved into
blk-flush.c.
* REQ_FLUSH w/o data can also be directly passed to drivers without
sequencing but some drivers assume that zero length requests don't
have rq->bio which isn't true for these requests requiring the use
of proxy requests.
* REQ_COMMON_MASK now includes REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA so that they are
copied from bio to request.
* WRITE_BARRIER is marked deprecated and WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_FUA and
WRITE_FLUSH_FUA are added.

Filesystems will take all the responsibilities for ordering requests
around commit writes and will only indicate how the commit writes
themselves should be handled by block layers. This patch drops
barrier ordering by queue draining from block layer. Ordering by
draining implementation was somewhat invasive to request handling.
List of notable changes follow.
* Each queue has 1 bit color which is flipped on each barrier issue.
This is used to track whether a given request is issued before the
current barrier or not. REQ_ORDERED_COLOR flag and coloring
implementation in __elv_add_request() are removed.
* Requests which shouldn't be processed yet for draining were stalled
by returning -EAGAIN from blk_do_ordered() according to the test
result between blk_ordered_req_seq() and blk_blk_ordered_cur_seq().
This logic is removed.
* Draining completion logic in elv_completed_request() removed.
* All barrier sequence requests were queued to request queue and then
trckled to lower layer according to progress and thus maintaining
request orders during requeue was necessary. This is replaced by
queueing the next request in the barrier sequence only after the
current one is complete from blk_ordered_complete_seq(), which
removes the need for multiple proxy requests in struct request_queue
and the request sorting logic in the ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE path of
elv_insert().
* As barriers no longer have ordering constraints, there's no need to
dump the whole elevator onto the dispatch queue on each barrier.
Insert barriers at the front instead.
* If other barrier requests come to the front of the dispatch queue
while one is already in progress, they are stored in
q->pending_barriers and restored to dispatch queue one-by-one after
each barrier completion from blk_ordered_complete_seq().

Make the following cleanups in preparation of barrier/flush update.
* blk_do_ordered() declaration is moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to
block/blk.h.
* blk_do_ordered() now returns pointer to struct request, with %NULL
meaning "try the next request" and ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) "try again
later". The third case will be dropped with further changes.
* In the initialization of proxy barrier request, data direction is
already set by init_request_from_bio(). Drop unnecessary explicit
REQ_WRITE setting and move init_request_from_bio() above REQ_FUA
flag setting.
* add_request() is collapsed into __make_request().
These changes don't make any functional difference.

Barrier is deemed too heavy and will soon be replaced by FLUSH/FUA
requests. Deprecate barrier. All REQ_HARDBARRIERs are failed with
-EOPNOTSUPP and blk_queue_ordered() is replaced with simpler
blk_queue_flush().
blk_queue_flush() takes combinations of REQ_FLUSH and FUA. If a
device has write cache and can flush it, it should set REQ_FLUSH. If
the device can handle FUA writes, it should also set REQ_FUA.
All blk_queue_ordered() users are converted.
* ORDERED_DRAIN is mapped to 0 which is the default value.
* ORDERED_DRAIN_FLUSH is mapped to REQ_FLUSH.
* ORDERED_DRAIN_FLUSH_FUA is mapped to REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA.

linux/block/cfq-iosched.c: In function ‘cfq_dispatch_requests’:
linux/block/cfq-iosched.c:2156:3: warning: array subscript is above array

- Warning happens due to following code.
slice = group_slice * count /
max_t(unsigned, cfqg->busy_queues_avg[cfqd->serving_prio],
cfq_group_busy_queues_wl(cfqd->serving_prio, cfqd, cfqg));
gcc is complaining about cfqg->busy_queues_avg[] being indexed by CFQ
prio classes (RT, BE and IDLE) while the array size is only 2.
- At run time, we never access cfqg->busy_queues_avg[IDLE] and return from
function before this code hits.
- To fix warning increase the array size though it will remain unused. This
patch also puts some comments to clarify some of the confusions.
- I have taken Jens's patch and modified it a bit.
- Compile tested with gcc 4.4 and boot tested. I don't have gcc 4.5
running, Andi can you please test it with gcc 4.5 to make sure it
worked.

Its reason is the wrong way of accounting hd_struct->in_flight. When a bio is
merged into a request belongs to different partition by ELEVATOR_FRONT_MERGE.
The detailed root cause is as follows.
Assuming that there are two partition, sda1 and sda2.
1. A request for sda2 is in request_queue. Hence sda1's hd_struct->in_flight
is 0 and sda2's one is 1.
| hd_struct->in_flight
---------------------------
sda1 | 0
sda2 | 1
---------------------------
2. A bio belongs to sda1 is issued and is merged into the request mentioned on
step1 by ELEVATOR_BACK_MERGE. The first sector of the request is changed
from sda2 region to sda1 region. However the two partition's
hd_struct->in_flight are not changed.
| hd_struct->in_flight
---------------------------
sda1 | 0
sda2 | 1
---------------------------
3. The request is finished and blk_account_io_done() is called. In this case,
sda2's hd_struct->in_flight, not a sda1's one, is decremented.
| hd_struct->in_flight
---------------------------
sda1 | -1
sda2 | 1
---------------------------
The patch fixes the problem by caching the partition lookup
inside the request structure, hence making sure that the increment
and decrement will always happen on the same partition struct. This
also speeds up IO with accounting enabled, since it cuts down on
the number of lookups we have to do.
When reloading partition tables, quiesce IO to ensure that no
request references to the partition struct exists. When it is safe
to free the partition table, the IO for that device is restarted
again.

o Currently any cgroup throttle limit changes are processed asynchronousy and
the change does not take affect till a new bio is dispatched from same group.
o It might happen that a user sets a redicuously low limit on throttling.
Say 1 bytes per second on reads. In such cases simple operations like mount
a disk can wait for a very long time.
o Once bio is throttled, there is no easy way to come out of that wait even if
user increases the read limit later.
o This patch fixes it. Now if a user changes the cgroup limits, we recalculate
the bio dispatch time according to new limits.
o Can't take queueu lock under blkcg_lock, hence after the change I wake
up the dispatch thread again which recalculates the time. So there are some
variables being synchronized across two threads without lock and I had to
make use of barriers. Hoping I have used barriers correctly. Any review of
memory barrier code especially will help.

travel through td->tg_list to process any updates of limits on the group.
If root group is not in tg_list, then root group's updates are not
processed.
o It is better to root group also to tg_list instead of doing special
processing for it during limit updates.

During long I/O operations, the hang_check timer may fire,
trigger stack dumps that unnecessarily alarm the user.
Eg. hdparm --security-erase NULL /dev/sdb ## can take *hours* to complete
So, if hang_check is armed, we should wake up periodically
to prevent it from triggering. This patch uses a wake-up interval
equal to half the hang_check timer period, which keeps overhead low enough.

Fsync performance for small files achieved by cfq on high-end disks is
lower than what deadline can achieve, due to idling introduced between
the sync write happening in process context and the journal commit.
Moreover, when competing with a sequential reader, a process writing
small files and fsync-ing them is starved.
This patch fixes the two problems by:
- marking journal commits as WRITE_SYNC, so that they get the REQ_NOIDLE
flag set,
- force all queues that have REQ_NOIDLE requests to be put in the noidle
tree.
Having the queue associated to the fsync-ing process and the one associated
to journal commits in the noidle tree allows:
- switching between them without idling,
- fairness vs. competing idling queues, since they will be serviced only
after the noidle tree expires its slice.

When a new disk is being discovered, add_disk() first ties the bdev to gendisk
(via register_disk()->blkdev_get()) and only after that calls
bdi_register_bdev(). Because register_disk() also creates disk's kobject, it
can happen that userspace manages to open and modify the device's data (or
inode) before its BDI is properly initialized leading to a warning in
__mark_inode_dirty().
Fix the problem by registering BDI early enough.

This is the third patch in a series which adds support for
storing partition metadata, optionally, off of the hd_struct.
One major use for that data is being able to resolve partition
by other identities than just the index on a block device. Device
enumeration varies by platform and there's a benefit to being able
to use something like EFI GPT's GUIDs to determine the correct
block device and partition to mount as the root.
This change adds that support to root= by adding support for
the following syntax:
root=PARTUUID=hex-uuid

are against Linus's tree: 2bfc96a127bc1cc94d26bfaa40159966064f9c8c
(2.6.36-rc3).
Would this patchset be suitable for inclusion in an mm branch?
This changes adds a partition_meta_info struct which itself contains a
union of structures that provide partition table specific metadata.
This change leaves the union empty. The subsequent patch includes an
implementation for CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION-based metadata.
