Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially for cycles that end up being as busy as this one. The major parts of this pull request is: - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small private implementation instead of using the pig that is fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph. - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the writeback queue throttling code. - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode that combines pure polling with an initial sleep.

2016-12-12mm: don't cap request size based on read-ahead settingJens Axboe2-0/+2
We ran into a funky issue, where someone doing 256K buffered reads saw 128K requests at the device level. Turns out it is read-ahead capping the request size, since we use 128K as the default setting. This doesn't make a lot of sense - if someone is issuing 256K reads, they should see 256K reads, regardless of the read-ahead setting, if the underlying device can support a 256K read in a single command. This patch introduces a bdi hint, io_pages. This is the soft max IO size for the lower level, I've hooked it up to the bdev settings here. Read-ahead is modified to issue the maximum of the user request size, and the read-ahead max size, but capped to the max request size on the device side. The latter is done to avoid reading ahead too much, if the application asks for a huge read. With this patch, the kernel behaves like the application expects.

2016-12-09block: improve handling of the magic discard payloadChristoph Hellwig4-78/+21
Instead of allocating a single unused biovec for discard requests, send them down without any payload. Instead we allow the driver to add a "special" payload using a biovec embedded into struct request (unioned over other fields never used while in the driver), and overloading the number of segments for this case. This has a couple of advantages: - we don't have to allocate the bio_vec - the amount of special casing for discard requests in the block layer is significantly reduced - using this same scheme for other request types is trivial, which will be important for implementing the new WRITE_ZEROES op on devices where it actually requires a payload (e.g. SCSI) - we can get rid of playing games with the request length, as we'll never touch it and completions will work just fine - it will allow us to support ranged discard operations in the future by merging non-contiguous discard bios into a single request - last but not least it removes a lot of code This patch is the common base for my WIP series for ranges discards and to remove discard_zeroes_data in favor of always using REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES, so it would be good to get it in quickly.

2016-12-05block: fix unintended fallthrough in generic_make_request_checks()Nicolai Stange1-0/+1
Since commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout") messages like the following show up: EXT4-fs (dm-1): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 2368848 at logical offset 0 with max blocks 1 with error 95 EXT4-fs (dm-1): This should not happen!! Data will be lost Due to the following fallthrough introduced with commit 2d253440b5af ("block: Define zoned block device operations"), generic_make_request_checks() would accept a REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME bio only if the block device supports "write same" *and* is a zoned one: switch (bio_op(bio)) { [...] case REQ_OP_WRITE_SAME: if (!bdev_write_same(bio->bi_bdev)) goto not_supported; case REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT: case REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET: if (!bdev_is_zoned(bio->bi_bdev)) goto not_supported; break; [...] } Thus, although the bio setup as done by __blkdev_issue_write_same() from commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of blkdev_issue_zeroout") would succeed, its actual submission would not, resulting in the EOPNOTSUPP == 95.

This adds a new block layer operation to zero out a range of LBAs. This allows to implement zeroing for devices that don't use either discard with a predictable zero pattern or WRITE SAME of zeroes. The prominent example of that is NVMe with the Write Zeroes command, but in the future, this should also help with improving the way zeroing discards work. For this operation, suitable entry is exported in sysfs which indicate the number of maximum bytes allowed in one write zeroes operation by the device.

2016-12-01block: Check partition alignment on zoned block devicesDamien Le Moal1-0/+65
Both blkdev_report_zones and blkdev_reset_zones can operate on a partition of a zoned block device. However, the first and last zones reported for a partition make sense only if the partition start sector and size are aligned on the device zone size. The same applies for zone reset. Resetting the first or the last zone of a partition straddling zones may impact neighboring partitions. Finally, if a partition start sector is not at the beginning of a sequential zone, it will be impossible to write to the first sectors of the partition on a host-managed device. Avoid all these problems and incoherencies by ignoring partitions that are not zone aligned. Note: Even with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled, bdev_is_zoned() will report the correct disk zoning type (host-aware, host-managed or none) but bdev_zone_size() will always return 0 for zoned block devices (i.e. the zone size is unknown). So test this as a way to ensure that a zoned block device is being handled as such. As a result, for a host-aware devices, unaligned zone partitions will be accepted with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED disabled. That is, the disk will be treated as a regular block device (as it should). If zoned block device support is enabled, only aligned partitions will be accepted.

This patch enables a hybrid polling mode. Instead of polling after IO submission, we can induce an artificial delay, and then poll after that. For example, if the IO is presumed to complete in 8 usecs from now, we can sleep for 4 usecs, wake up, and then do our polling. This still puts a sleep/wakeup cycle in the IO path, but instead of the wakeup happening after the IO has completed, it'll happen before. With this hybrid scheme, we can achieve big latency reductions while still using the same (or less) amount of CPU.

2016-11-10block: hook up writeback throttlingJens Axboe6-4/+171
Enable throttling of buffered writeback to make it a lot more smooth, and has way less impact on other system activity. Background writeback should be, by definition, background activity. The fact that we flush huge bundles of it at the time means that it potentially has heavy impacts on foreground workloads, which isn't ideal. We can't easily limit the sizes of writes that we do, since that would impact file system layout in the presence of delayed allocation. So just throttle back buffered writeback, unless someone is waiting for it. The algorithm for when to throttle takes its inspiration in the CoDel networking scheduling algorithm. Like CoDel, blk-wb monitors the minimum latencies of requests over a window of time. In that window of time, if the minimum latency of any request exceeds a given target, then a scale count is incremented and the queue depth is shrunk. The next monitoring window is shrunk accordingly. Unlike CoDel, if we hit a window that exhibits good behavior, then we simply increment the scale count and re-calculate the limits for that scale value. This prevents us from oscillating between a close-to-ideal value and max all the time, instead remaining in the windows where we get good behavior. Unlike CoDel, blk-wb allows the scale count to to negative. This happens if we primarily have writes going on. Unlike positive scale counts, this doesn't change the size of the monitoring window. When the heavy writers finish, blk-bw quickly snaps back to it's stable state of a zero scale count. The patch registers a sysfs entry, 'wb_lat_usec'. This sets the latency target to me met. It defaults to 2 msec for non-rotational storage, and 75 msec for rotational storage. Setting this value to '0' disables blk-wb. Generally, a user would not have to touch this setting. We don't enable WBT on devices that are managed with CFQ, and have a non-root block cgroup attached. If we have a proportional share setup on this particular disk, then the wbt throttling will interfere with that. We don't have a strong need for wbt for that case, since we will rely on CFQ doing that for us. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-11-10blk-wbt: add general throttling mechanismJens Axboe3-0/+901
We can hook this up to the block layer, to help throttle buffered writes. wbt registers a few trace points that can be used to track what is happening in the system: wbt_lat: 259:0: latency 2446318 wbt_stat: 259:0: rmean=2446318, rmin=2446318, rmax=2446318, rsamples=1, wmean=518866, wmin=15522, wmax=5330353, wsamples=57 wbt_step: 259:0: step down: step=1, window=72727272, background=8, normal=16, max=32 This shows a sync issue event (wbt_lat) that exceeded it's time. wbt_stat dumps the current read/write stats for that window, and wbt_step shows a step down event where we now scale back writes. Each trace includes the device, 259:0 in this case. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-11-10block: add scalable completion tracking of requestsJens Axboe8-3/+404
For legacy block, we simply track them in the request queue. For blk-mq, we track them on a per-sw queue basis, which we can then sum up through the hardware queues and finally to a per device state. The stats are tracked in, roughly, 0.1s interval windows. Add sysfs files to display the stats. The feature is off by default, to avoid any extra overhead. In-kernel users of it can turn it on by setting QUEUE_FLAG_STATS in the queue flags. We currently don't turn it on if someone just reads any of the stats files, that is something we could add as well. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-11-10block: cfq_cpd_alloc() should use @gfpTejun Heo1-1/+1
cfq_cpd_alloc() which is the cpd_alloc_fn implementation for cfq was incorrectly hard coding GFP_KERNEL instead of using the mask specified through the @gfp parameter. This currently doesn't cause any actual issues because all current callers specify GFP_KERNEL. Fix it.

2016-11-08block: set REQ_SYNC if we clear REQ_FUA|REQ_PREFLUSHJens Axboe1-0/+7
If we insert a flush request, we clear REQ_PREFLUSH and/or REQ_FUA, depending on flush settings. Since op_is_sync() factors those flags in for deciding whether this request is sync or not, we should set REQ_SYNC to avoid screwing up this accounting. This should be less fragile.

2016-11-06blk-mq: Always schedule hctx->next_cpuGabriel Krisman Bertazi1-3/+1
Commit 0e87e58bf60e ("blk-mq: improve warning for running a queue on the wrong CPU") attempts to avoid triggering the WARN_ON in __blk_mq_run_hw_queue when the expected CPU is dead. Problem is, in the last batch execution before round robin, blk_mq_hctx_next_cpu can schedule a dead CPU and also update next_cpu to the next alive CPU in the mask, which will trigger the WARN_ON despite the previous workaround. The following patch fixes this scenario by always scheduling the value in hctx->next_cpu. This changes the moment when we round-robin the CPU running the hctx, but it really doesn't matter, since it still executes BLK_MQ_CPU_WORK_BATCH times in a row before switching to another CPU.

2016-11-05block: add code to track actual device queue depthJens Axboe1-0/+12
For blk-mq, ->nr_requests does track queue depth, at least at init time. But for the older queue paths, it's simply a soft setting. On top of that, it's generally larger than the hardware setting on purpose, to allow backup of requests for merging. Fill a hole in struct request with a 'queue_depth' member, that drivers can call to more closely inform the block layer of the real queue depth.
