2017-06-22Merge commit '8e8320c9315c' into for-4.13/blockJens Axboe1-9/+0
Pull in the fix for shared tags, as it conflicts with the pending changes in for-4.13/block. We already pulled in v4.12-rc5 to solve other conflicts or get fixes that went into 4.12, so not a lot of changes in this merge. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2017-06-21blk-mq: fix performance regression with shared tagsJens Axboe1-9/+0
If we have shared tags enabled, then every IO completion will trigger a full loop of every queue belonging to a tag set, and every hardware queue for each of those queues, even if nothing needs to be done. This causes a massive performance regression if you have a lot of shared devices. Instead of doing this huge full scan on every IO, add an atomic counter to the main queue that tracks how many hardware queues have been marked as needing a restart. With that, we can avoid looking for restartable queues, if we don't have to. Max reports that this restores performance. Before this patch, 4K IOPS was limited to 22-23K IOPS. With the patch, we are running at 950-970K IOPS.

2017-06-18blk-mq: refactor blk_mq_sched_assign_iocChristoph Hellwig1-2/+1
blk_mq_sched_assign_ioc now only handles the assigned of the ioc if the schedule needs it (bfq only at the moment). The caller to the per-request initializer is moved out so that it can be merged with a similar call for the kyber I/O scheduler.

2017-05-26blk-mq: make per-sw-queue bio merge as default .bio_mergeMing Lei1-3/+1
Because what the per-sw-queue bio merge does is basically same with scheduler's .bio_merge(), this patch makes per-sw-queue bio merge as the default .bio_merge if no scheduler is used or io scheduler doesn't provide .bio_merge().

2017-04-14blk-mq-sched: make completed_request() callback more usefulOmar Sandoval1-8/+3
Currently, this callback is called right after put_request() and has no distinguishable purpose. Instead, let's call it before put_request() as soon as I/O has completed on the request, before we account it in blk-stat. With this, Kyber can enable stats when it sees a latency outlier and make sure the outlier gets accounted. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2017-04-07blk-mq-sched: provide hooks for initializing hardware queue dataOmar Sandoval1-4/+0
Schedulers need to be informed when a hardware queue is added or removed at runtime so they can allocate/free per-hardware queue data. So, replace the blk_mq_sched_init_hctx_data() helper, which only makes sense at init time, with .init_hctx() and .exit_hctx() hooks.

2017-04-07blk-mq: Restart a single queue if tag sets are sharedBart Van Assche1-15/+1
To improve scalability, if hardware queues are shared, restart a single hardware queue in round-robin fashion. Rename blk_mq_sched_restart_queues() to reflect the new semantics. Remove blk_mq_sched_mark_restart_queue() because this function has no callers. Remove flag QUEUE_FLAG_RESTART because this patch removes the code that uses this flag.

2017-04-07blk-mq-sched: fix crash in switch error pathOmar Sandoval1-1/+1
In elevator_switch(), if blk_mq_init_sched() fails, we attempt to fall back to the original scheduler. However, at this point, we've already torn down the original scheduler's tags, so this causes a crash. Doing the fallback like the legacy elevator path is much harder for mq, so fix it by just falling back to none, instead.

2017-04-07blk-mq-sched: set up scheduler tags when bringing up new queuesOmar Sandoval1-0/+5
If a new hardware queue is added at runtime, we don't allocate scheduler tags for it, leading to a crash. This hooks up the scheduler framework to blk_mq_{init,exit}_hctx() to make sure everything gets properly initialized/freed.

2017-02-23blk-mq-sched: separate mark hctx and queue restart operationsOmar Sandoval1-8/+18
In blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests(), we call blk_mq_sched_mark_restart() after we dispatch requests left over on our hardware queue dispatch list. This is so we'll go back and dispatch requests from the scheduler. In this case, it's only necessary to restart the hardware queue that we are running; there's no reason to run other hardware queues just because we are using shared tags. So, split out blk_mq_sched_mark_restart() into two operations, one for just the hardware queue and one for the whole request queue. The core code only needs the hctx variant, but I/O schedulers will want to use both. This also requires adjusting blk_mq_sched_restart_queues() to always check the queue restart flag, not just when using shared tags.

2017-02-10blk-mq: pass bio to blk_mq_sched_get_rq_privPaolo Valente1-2/+3
bio is used in bfq-mq's get_rq_priv, to get the request group. We could pass directly the group here, but I thought that passing the bio was more general, giving the possibility to get other pieces of information if needed.

2017-02-03block: free merged request in the callerJens Axboe1-1/+2
If we end up doing a request-to-request merge when we have completed a bio-to-request merge, we free the request from deep down in that path. For blk-mq-sched, the merge path has to hold the appropriate lock, but we don't need it for freeing the request. And in fact holding the lock is problematic, since we are now calling the mq sched put_rq_private() hook with the lock held. Other call paths do not hold this lock. Fix this inconsistency by ensuring that the caller frees a merged request. Then we can do it outside of the lock, making it both more efficient and fixing the blk-mq-sched problem of invoking parts of the scheduler with an unknown lock state.

2017-02-02blk-mq-sched: bypass the scheduler for flushes entirelyOmar Sandoval1-1/+0
There's a weird inconsistency that flushes are mostly hidden from the scheduler, but it needs to be aware of them in ->insert_requests(). Instead of having every scheduler call blk_mq_sched_bypass_insert(), let's do it in the common framework. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2017-01-27blk-mq-sched: add flush insertion into blk_mq_sched_insert_request()Jens Axboe1-39/+6
Instead of letting the caller check this and handle the details of inserting a flush request, put the logic in the scheduler insertion function. This fixes direct flush insertion outside of the usual make_request_fn calls, like from dm via blk_insert_cloned_request(). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2017-01-27blk-mq-sched: fix starvation for multiple hardware queues and shared tagsJens Axboe1-6/+9
If we have both multiple hardware queues and shared tag map between devices, we need to ensure that we propagate the hardware queue restart bit higher up. This is because we can get into a situation where we don't have any IO pending on a hardware queue, yet we fail getting a tag to start new IO. If that happens, it's not enough to mark the hardware queue as needing a restart, we need to bubble that up to the higher level queue as well.

2017-01-17blk-mq-sched: allow setting of default IO schedulerJens Axboe1-0/+2
Add Kconfig entries to manage what devices get assigned an MQ scheduler, and add a blk-mq flag for drivers to opt out of scheduling. The latter is useful for admin type queues that still allocate a blk-mq queue and tag set, but aren't use for normal IO.

2017-01-17blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO schedulersJens Axboe1-0/+170
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.
