[ Upstream commit 7d337eef4affc5e26e0570513168c69ddbc40f92 ]
Current depth_updated has some problems:
1) depth_updated() will be called for each hctx, while all elevators
will update async_depth for the disk level, this is not related to hctx;
2) In blk_mq_update_nr_requests(), if previous hctx update succeed and
this hctx update failed, q->nr_requests will not be updated, while
async_depth is already updated with new nr_reqeuests in previous
depth_updated();
3) All elevators are using q->nr_requests to calculate async_depth now,
however, q->nr_requests is still the old value when depth_updated() is
called from blk_mq_update_nr_requests();
Those problems are first from error path, then mq-deadline, and recently
for bfq and kyber, fix those problems by:
- pass in request_queue instead of hctx;
- move depth_updated() after q->nr_requests is updated in
blk_mq_update_nr_requests();
- add depth_updated() call inside init_sched() method to initialize
async_depth;
- remove init_hctx() method for mq-deadline and bfq that is useless now;
Fixes: 77f1e0a52d26 ("bfq: update internal depth state when queue depth changes")
Fixes: 39823b47bbd4 ("block/mq-deadline: Fix the tag reservation code")
Fixes: 42e6c6ce03fd ("lib/sbitmap: convert shallow_depth from one word to the whole sbitmap")

Recent lockdep reports [1] have revealed a potential deadlock caused by a
lock dependency between the percpu allocator lock and the elevator lock.
This issue can be avoided by ensuring that the allocation and release of
scheduler tags (sched_tags) are performed outside the elevator lock.
Furthermore, the queue does not need to be remain frozen during these
operations.
To address this, move all sched_tags allocations and deallocations outside
of both the ->elevator_lock and the ->freeze_lock. Since the lifetime of
the elevator queue and its associated sched_tags is closely tied, the
allocated sched_tags are now stored in the elevator queue structure. Then,
during the actual elevator switch (which runs under ->freeze_lock and
->elevator_lock), the pre-allocated sched_tags are assigned to the
appropriate q->hctx. Once the elevator switch is complete and the locks
are released, the old elevator queue and its associated sched_tags are
freed.
This commit specifically addresses the allocation/deallocation of sched_
tags during elevator switching. Note that sched_tags may also be allocated
in other contexts, such as during nr_hw_queues updates. Supporting that
use case will require batch allocation/deallocation, which will be handled
in a follow-up patch.
This restructuring ensures that sched_tags memory management occurs
entirely outside of the ->elevator_lock and ->freeze_lock context,
eliminating the lock dependency problem seen during scheduler updates.

In preparation for allocating sched_tags before freezing the request
queue and acquiring ->elevator_lock, move the elevator queue allocation
logic from the elevator ops ->init_sched callback into blk_mq_init_sched.
As elevator_alloc is now only invoked from block layer core, we don't
need to export it, so unexport elevator_alloc function.
This refactoring provides a centralized location for elevator queue
initialization, which makes it easier to store pre-allocated sched_tags
in the struct elevator_queue during later changes.

scheduler's ->exit() is called with queue frozen and elevator lock is held, and
wbt_enable_default() can't be called with queue frozen, otherwise the
following lockdep warning is triggered:
#6 (&q->rq_qos_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}:
#5 (&eq->sysfs_lock){+.+.}-{4:4}:
#4 (&q->elevator_lock){+.+.}-{4:4}:
#3 (&q->q_usage_counter(io)#3){++++}-{0:0}:
#2 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}-{0:0}:
#1 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#3){+.+.}-{4:4}:
#0 (&q->debugfs_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}:
Fix the issue by moving wbt_enable_default() out of bfq's exit(), and
call it from elevator_change_done().
Meantime add disk->rqos_state_mutex for covering wbt state change, which
matches the purpose more than ->elevator_lock.

Prepare for moving elv_register[unregister]_queue out of elevator_lock
& queue freezing, so we may have to call elv_unregister_queue() after
elevator ->exit() is called, then there is small window for user to
call into ->show()/store(), and user-after-free can be caused.
Fail to show/store elevator sysfs attribute if elevator is dying by
adding one new flag of ELEVATOR_FLAG_DYNG, which is protected by
elevator ->sysfs_lock.

sched debugfs shares same lifetime with scheduler's kobject, and same
lock(elevator lock), so move sched debugfs register/unregister into
elevator_register_queue() and elevator_unregister_queue().
Then we needn't blk_mq_debugfs_register() for us to register sched
debugfs any more.

ELEVATOR_FLAG_DISABLE_WBT is only used by BFQ to disallow wbt when BFQ is
in use. The flag is set in BFQ's init(), and cleared in BFQ's exit().
Making it as request queue flag, so that we can avoid to deal with elevator
switch race. Also it isn't graceful to checking one scheduler flag in
wbt_enable_default().

A queue's elevator can be updated either when modifying nr_hw_queues
or through the sysfs scheduler attribute. Currently, elevator switching/
updating is protected using q->sysfs_lock, but this has led to lockdep
splats[1] due to inconsistent lock ordering between q->sysfs_lock and
the freeze-lock in multiple block layer call sites.
As the scope of q->sysfs_lock is not well-defined, its (mis)use has
resulted in numerous lockdep warnings. To address this, introduce a new
q->elevator_lock, dedicated specifically for protecting elevator
switches/updates. And we'd now use this new q->elevator_lock instead of
q->sysfs_lock for protecting elevator switches/updates.
While at it, make elv_iosched_load_module() a static function, as it is
only called from elv_iosched_store(). Also, remove redundant parameters
from elv_iosched_load_module() function signature.

Commit af2814149883 ("block: freeze the queue in queue_attr_store")
changed queue_attr_store() to always freeze a sysfs attribute queue
before calling the attribute store() method, to ensure that no IOs are
in-flight when an attribute value is being updated.
However, this change created a potential deadlock situation for the
scheduler queue attribute as changing the queue elevator with
elv_iosched_store() can result in a call to request_module() if the user
requested module is not already registered. If the file of the requested
module is stored on the block device of the frozen queue, a deadlock
will happen as the read operations triggered by request_module() will
wait for the queue freeze to end.
Solve this issue by introducing the load_module method in struct
queue_sysfs_entry, and to calling this method function in
queue_attr_store() before freezing the attribute queue.
The macro definition QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY() is added to define a
queue sysfs attribute that needs loading a module.
The definition of the scheduler atrribute is changed to using
QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY(), with the function
elv_iosched_load_module() defined as the load_module method.
elv_iosched_store() can then be simplified to remove the call to
request_module().

The only elevator feature ever implemented is ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE
for signaling that a scheduler implements zone write locking to tightly
control the dispatching order of write operations to zoned block
devices. With the removal of zone write locking support in mq-deadline
and the reliance of all block device drivers on the block layer zone
write plugging to control ordering of write operations to zones, the
elevator feature ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE is completely unused.
Remove it, and also remove the now unused code for filtering the
possible schedulers for a block device based on required features.

Commit b5dc5d4d1f4f ("block,bfq: Disable writeback throttling") tries to
disable wbt for bfq, it's done by calling wbt_disable_default() in
bfq_init_queue(). However, wbt is still enabled if default elevator is
bfq:
device_add_disk
elevator_init_mq
bfq_init_queue
wbt_disable_default -> done nothing
blk_register_queue
wbt_enable_default -> wbt is enabled
Fix the problem by adding a new flag ELEVATOR_FLAG_DISBALE_WBT, bfq
will set the flag in bfq_init_queue, and following wbt_enable_default()
won't enable wbt while the flag is set.
