2017-02-17block: don't defer flushes on blk-mq + schedulingJens Axboe1-1/+7
For blk-mq with scheduling, we can potentially end up with ALL driver tags assigned and sitting on the flush queues. If we defer because of an inlfight data request, then we can deadlock if that data request doesn't already have a tag assigned. This fixes a deadlock with running the xfs/297 xfstest, where thousands of syncs can cause the drive queue to stall.

2017-01-31block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ spaceChristoph Hellwig1-1/+0
Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough operations. Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

Instead of letting the caller check this and handle the details of inserting a flush request, put the logic in the scheduler insertion function.

2017-01-17blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO schedulersJens Axboe1-5/+7
This adds a set of hooks that intercepts the blk-mq path of allocating/inserting/issuing/completing requests, allowing us to develop a scheduler within that framework. We reuse the existing elevator scheduler API on the registration side, but augment that with the scheduler flagging support for the blk-mq interfce, and with a separate set of ops hooks for MQ devices. We split driver and scheduler tags, so we can run the scheduling independently of device queue depth.

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.

2016-10-28block: better op and flags encodingChristoph Hellwig1-1/+1
Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to stop having to shift around the operation values. In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do that later) and thus clean up a lot of code. Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests. It also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for struct request.

This reverts commit 1b2ff19e6a957b1ef0f365ad331b608af80e932e. Jan writes: -- Thanks for report! After some investigation I found out we allocate elevator specific data in __get_request() only for non-flush requests. And this is actually required since the flush machinery uses the space in struct request for something else. Doh. So my patch is just wrong and not easy to fix since at the time __get_request() is called we are not sure whether the flush machinery will be used in the end. Jens, please revert 1b2ff19e6a957b1ef0f365ad331b608af80e932e. Thanks! I'm somewhat surprised that you can reliably hit the race where flushing gets disabled for the device just while the request is in flight. But I guess during boot it makes some sense. -- So let's just revert it, we can fix the queue run manually after the fact. This race is rare enough that it didn't trigger in testing, it requires the specific disable-while-in-flight scenario to trigger.
2015-11-16blk-flush: Queue through IO scheduler when flush not requiredJan Kara1-1/+1
Currently blk_insert_flush() just adds flush request to q->queue_head when flush is not required. That completely bypasses IO scheduler so e.g. CFQ can be idling waiting for new request to arrive and will idle through the whole window unnecessarily. Luckily this only happens in rare cases as usually checks in generic_make_request_checks() clear FLUSH and FUA flags early if they are not needed. When no flushing is actually required, we can easily fix the problem by properly queueing the request through the IO scheduler. Ideally IO scheduler should be also made aware of requests queued via blk_flush_queue_rq(). However inserting flush request through IO scheduler can have unwanted side-effects since due to flush batching delaying the flush request in IO scheduler will delay all flush requests possibly coming from other processes. So we keep adding the request directly to q->queue_head. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-08-15blk-mq: fix race between timeout and freeing requestMing Lei1-1/+14
Inside timeout handler, blk_mq_tag_to_rq() is called to retrieve the request from one tag. This way is obviously wrong because the request can be freed any time and some fiedds of the request can't be trusted, then kernel oops might be triggered[1]. Currently wrt. blk_mq_tag_to_rq(), the only special case is that the flush request can share same tag with the request cloned from, and the two requests can't be active at the same time, so this patch fixes the above issue by updating tags->rqs[tag] with the active request(either flush rq or the request cloned from) of the tag. Also blk_mq_tag_to_rq() gets much simplified with this patch. Given blk_mq_tag_to_rq() is mainly for drivers and the caller must make sure the request can't be freed, so in bt_for_each() this helper is replaced with tags->rqs[tag].

This patch removes two unnecessary blk_clear_rq_complete(), the REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE flag is cleared inside blk_mq_start_request(), so: - The blk_clear_rq_complete() in blk_flush_restore_request() needn't because the request will be freed later, and clearing it here may open a small race window with timeout. - The blk_clear_rq_complete() in blk_mq_requeue_request() isn't necessary too, even though REQ_ATOM_STARTED is cleared in __blk_mq_requeue_request(), in theory it still may cause a small race window with timeout since the two clear_bit() may be reordered.

2014-01-30blk-mq: Don't reserve a tag for flush requestShaohua Li1-3/+5
Reserving a tag (request) for flush to avoid dead lock is a overkill. A tag is valuable resource. We can track the number of flush requests and disallow having too many pending flush requests allocated. With this patch, blk_mq_alloc_request_pinned() could do a busy nop (but not a dead loop) if too many pending requests are allocated and new flush request is allocated. But this should not be a problem, too many pending flush requests are very rare case. I verified this can fix the deadlock caused by too many pending flush requests.

2013-10-28blk-mq: fix for flush deadlockChristoph Hellwig1-1/+1
The flush state machine takes in a struct request, which then is submitted multiple times to the underling driver. The old block code requeses the same request for each of those, so it does not have an issue with tapping into the request pool. The new one on the other hand allocates a new request for each of the actualy steps of the flush sequence. If have already allocated all of the tags for IO, we will fail allocating the flush request. Set aside a reserved request just for flushes. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2013-10-25blk-mq: new multi-queue block IO queueing mechanismJens Axboe1-15/+139
Linux currently has two models for block devices: - The classic request_fn based approach, where drivers use struct request units for IO. The block layer provides various helper functionalities to let drivers share code, things like tag management, timeout handling, queueing, etc. - The "stacked" approach, where a driver squeezes in between the block layer and IO submitter. Since this bypasses the IO stack, driver generally have to manage everything themselves. With drivers being written for new high IOPS devices, the classic request_fn based driver doesn't work well enough. The design dates back to when both SMP and high IOPS was rare. It has problems with scaling to bigger machines, and runs into scaling issues even on smaller machines when you have IOPS in the hundreds of thousands per device. The stacked approach is then most often selected as the model for the driver. But this means that everybody has to re-invent everything, and along with that we get all the problems again that the shared approach solved. This commit introduces blk-mq, block multi queue support. The design is centered around per-cpu queues for queueing IO, which then funnel down into x number of hardware submission queues. We might have a 1:1 mapping between the two, or it might be an N:M mapping. That all depends on what the hardware supports. blk-mq provides various helper functions, which include: - Scalable support for request tagging. Most devices need to be able to uniquely identify a request both in the driver and to the hardware. The tagging uses per-cpu caches for freed tags, to enable cache hot reuse. - Timeout handling without tracking request on a per-device basis. Basically the driver should be able to get a notification, if a request happens to fail. - Optional support for non 1:1 mappings between issue and submission queues. blk-mq can redirect IO completions to the desired location. - Support for per-request payloads. Drivers almost always need to associate a request structure with some driver private command structure. Drivers can tell blk-mq this at init time, and then any request handed to the driver will have the required size of memory associated with it. - Support for merging of IO, and plugging. The stacked model gets neither of these. Even for high IOPS devices, merging sequential IO reduces per-command overhead and thus increases bandwidth. For now, this is provided as a potential 3rd queueing model, with the hope being that, as it matures, it can replace both the classic and stacked model. That would get us back to having just 1 real model for block devices, leaving the stacked approach to dm/md devices (as it was originally intended).
