Removing think time checking. A high thinktime queue might means the queue
dispatches several requests and then do away. Limitting such queue seems
meaningless. And also this can simplify code. This is suggested by Vivek.

For v2, I added back lines to cfq_preempt_queue() that were removed
during updates for accounting unaccounted_time. Thanks for pointing out
that I'd missed these, Vivek.
Previous commit "cfq-iosched: Don't set active queue in preempt" wrongly
cleared stats for preempting queues when it shouldn't have, because when
we choose a queue to preempt, it still isn't necessarily scheduled next.
Thanks to Vivek Goyal for figuring this out and understanding how the
preemption code works.

Lina reported that if throttle limits are initially very high and then
dropped, then no new bio might be dispatched for a long time. And the
reason being that after dropping the limits we don't reset the existing
slice and do the rate calculation with new low rate and account the bios
dispatched at high rate. To fix it, reset the slice upon rate change.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/10/298
Another problem with very high limit is that we never queued the
bio on throtl service tree. That means we kept on extending the
group slice but never trimmed it. Fix that also by regulary
trimming the slice even if bio is not being queued up.

Commit "Add unaccounted time to timeslice_used" changed the behavior of
cfq_preempt_queue to set cfqq active. Vivek pointed out that other
preemption rules might get involved, so we shouldn't manually set which
queue is active.
This cleans up the code to just clear the queue stats at preemption
time.

One of the disadvantages of on-stack plugging is that we potentially
lose out on merging since all pending IO isn't always visible to
everybody. When we flush the on-stack plugs, right now we don't do
any checks to see if potential merge candidates could be utilized.
Correct this by adding a new insert variant, ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT_MERGE.
It works just ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT, but first checks whether we can
merge with an existing request before doing the insertion (if we fail
merging).
This fixes a regression with multiple processes issuing IO that
can be merged.
Thanks to Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com> for testing and fixing
an accounting bug.

Version 3 is updated to apply to for-2.6.39/core.
For version 2, I took Vivek's advice and made sure we update the group
weight from cfq_group_service_tree_add().
If a weight was updated while a group is on the service tree, the
calculation for the total weight of the service tree can be adjusted
improperly, which either leads to bad service tree weights, or
potentially crashes (if total_weight becomes 0).
This patch defers updates to the weight until a group is off the service
tree.

There are two kind of times that tasks are not charged for: the first
seek and the extra time slice used over the allocated timeslice. Both
of these exported as a new unaccounted_time stat.
I think it would be good to have this reported in 'time' as well, but
that is probably a separate discussion.

With the plugging now being explicitly controlled by the
submitter, callers need not pass down unplugging hints
to the block layer. If they want to unplug, it's because they
manually plugged on their own - in which case, they should just
unplug at will.

This patch adds support for creating a queuing context outside
of the queue itself. This enables us to batch up pieces of IO
before grabbing the block device queue lock and submitting them to
the IO scheduler.
The context is created on the stack of the process and assigned in
the task structure, so that we can auto-unplug it if we hit a schedule
event.
The current queue plugging happens implicitly if IO is submitted to
an empty device, yet callers have to remember to unplug that IO when
they are going to wait for it. This is an ugly API and has caused bugs
in the past. Additionally, it requires hacks in the vm (->sync_page()
callback) to handle that logic. By switching to an explicit plugging
scheme we make the API a lot nicer and can get rid of the ->sync_page()
hack in the vm.

When throttle group limits are updated through cgroups, a thread is
woken up to process these updates. While reviewing that code, oleg noted
couple of race conditions existed in the code and he also suggested that
code can be simplified.
This patch fixes the races simplifies the code based on Oleg's suggestions:
- Use xchg().
- Introduced a common function throtl_update_blkio_group_common()
which is shared now by all iops/bps update functions.

With the help of cgroup interface one can go and upate the bps/iops
limits of existing group. Once the limits are udpated, a thread is
woken up to see if some blocked group needs recalculation based on new
limits and needs to be requeued.
There was also a piece of code where I was checking for group limit
update when a fresh bio comes in. This patch gets rid of that piece of
code and keeps processing the limit change at one place
throtl_process_limit_change(). It just keeps the code simple and easy
to understand.

This merge creates two set of conflicts. One is simple context
conflicts caused by removal of throtl_scheduled_delayed_work() in
for-linus and removal of throtl_shutdown_timer_wq() in
for-2.6.39/core.
The other is caused by commit 255bb490c8 (block: blk-flush shouldn't
call directly into q->request_fn() __blk_run_queue()) in for-linus
crashing with FLUSH reimplementation in for-2.6.39/core. The conflict
isn't trivial but the resolution is straight-forward.
* __blk_run_queue() calls in flush_end_io() and flush_data_end_io()
should be called with @force_kblockd set to %true.
* elv_insert() in blk_kick_flush() should use
%ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE.
Both changes are to avoid invoking ->request_fn() directly from
request completion path and closely match the changes in the commit
255bb490c8.

If there are a sync and an async queue and the sync queue's think time
is small, we can ignore the sync queue's dispatch quantum. Because the
sync queue will always preempt the async queue, we don't need to care
about async's latency. This can fix a performance regression of
aiostress test, which is introduced by commit f8ae6e3eb825. The issue
should exist even without the commit, but the commit amplifies the
impact.
The initial post does the same optimization for RT queue too, but since
I have no real workload for it, Vivek suggests to drop it.

Move blk_throtl_exit() in blk_cleanup_queue() as blk_throtl_exit() is
written in such a way that it needs queue lock. In blk_release_queue()
there is no gurantee that ->queue_lock is still around.
Initially blk_throtl_exit() was in blk_cleanup_queue() but Ingo reported
one problem.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/23/86
And a quick fix moved blk_throtl_exit() to blk_release_queue().

block: fix use-after-free bug in blk throttle code
This patch reverts above change and does not try to shutdown the
throtl work in blk_sync_queue(). By avoiding call to
throtl_shutdown_timer_wq() from blk_sync_queue(), we should also avoid
the problem reported by Ingo.
blk_sync_queue() seems to be used only by md driver and it seems to be
using it to make sure q->unplug_fn is not called as md registers its
own unplug functions and it is about to free up the data structures
used by unplug_fn(). Block throttle does not call back into unplug_fn()
or into md. So there is no need to cancel blk throttle work.
In fact I think cancelling block throttle work is bad because it might
happen that some bios are throttled and scheduled to be dispatched later
with the help of pending work and if work is cancelled, these bios might
never be dispatched.
Block layer also uses blk_sync_queue() during blk_cleanup_queue() and
blk_release_queue() time. That should be safe as we are also calling
blk_throtl_exit() which should make sure all the throttling related
data structures are cleaned up.

There does not seem to be a clear convention whether q->queue_lock is
initialized or not when blk_cleanup_queue() is called. In the past it
was not necessary but now blk_throtl_exit() takes up queue lock by
default and needs queue lock to be available.
In fact elevator_exit() code also has similar requirement just that it
is less stringent in the sense that elevator_exit() is called only if
elevator is initialized.
Two problems have been noticed because of ambiguity about spin lock
status.
- If a driver calls blk_alloc_queue() and then soon calls
blk_cleanup_queue() almost immediately, (because some other
driver structure allocation failed or some other error happened)
then blk_throtl_exit() will run into issues as queue lock is not
initialized. Loop driver ran into this issue recently and I
noticed error paths in md driver too. Similar error paths should
exist in other drivers too.
- If some driver provided external spin lock and zapped the lock
before blk_cleanup_queue(), then it can lead to issues.
So this patch initializes the default queue lock at queue allocation time.
block throttling code is one of the users of queue lock and it is
initialized at the queue allocation time, so it makes sense to
initialize ->queue_lock also to internal lock. A driver can overide that
lock later. This will take care of the issue where a driver does not have
to worry about initializing the queue lock to default before calling
blk_cleanup_queue()

Effectively, make group_isolation=1 the default and remove the tunable.
The setting group_isolation=0 was because by default we idle on
sync-noidle tree and on fast devices, this can be very harmful for
throughput.
However, this problem can also be addressed by tuning slice_idle and
possibly group_idle on faster storage devices.
This change simplifies the CFQ code by removing the feature entirely.

The current FLUSH/FUA support has evolved from the implementation
which had to perform queue draining. As such, sequencing is done
queue-wide one flush request after another. However, with the
draining requirement gone, there's no reason to keep the queue-wide
sequential approach.
This patch reimplements FLUSH/FUA support such that each FLUSH/FUA
request is sequenced individually. The actual FLUSH execution is
double buffered and whenever a request wants to execute one for either
PRE or POSTFLUSH, it queues on the pending queue. Once certain
conditions are met, a flush request is issued and on its completion
all pending requests proceed to the next sequence.
This allows arbitrary merging of different type of flushes. How they
are merged can be primarily controlled and tuned by adjusting the
above said 'conditions' used to determine when to issue the next
flush.
This is inspired by Darrick's patches to merge multiple zero-data
flushes which helps workloads with highly concurrent fsync requests.
* As flush requests are never put on the IO scheduler, request fields
used for flush share space with rq->rb_node. rq->completion_data is
moved out of the union. This increases the request size by one
pointer.
As rq->elevator_private* are used only by the iosched too, it is
possible to reduce the request size further. However, to do that,
we need to modify request allocation path such that iosched data is
not allocated for flush requests.
* FLUSH/FUA processing happens on insertion now instead of dispatch.

bio's for flush are completed twice - once during the data phase and
one more time after the whole sequence is complete. The first
completion shouldn't notify completion to the issuer.
This was achieved by skipping all bio completion steps in
req_bio_endio() for the first completion; however, this has two
drawbacks.
* Error is not recorded in bio and must be tracked somewhere else.
* Partial completion is not supported.
Both don't cause problems for the current users; however, they make
further improvements difficult. Change req_bio_endio() such that it
only skips the actual notification part for the first completion. bio
completion is implemented with partial completions on mind anyway so
this is as simple as moving the REQ_FLUSH_SEQ conditional such that
only calling of bio_endio() is skipped.

rq == &q->flush_rq was used to determine whether a rq is part of a
flush sequence, which worked because all requests in a flush sequence
were sequenced using the single dedicated request. This is about to
change, so introduce REQ_FLUSH_SEQ flag to distinguish flush sequence
requests.
This patch doesn't cause any behavior change.

BZ29402
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29402
We can hit serious mis-synchronization in bio completion path of
blkdev_issue_zeroout() leading to a panic.
The problem is that when we are going to wait_for_completion() in
blkdev_issue_zeroout() we check if the bb.done equals issued (number of
submitted bios). If it does, we can skip the wait_for_completition()
and just out of the function since there is nothing to wait for.
However, there is a ordering problem because bio_batch_end_io() is
calling atomic_inc(&bb->done) before complete(), hence it might seem to
blkdev_issue_zeroout() that all bios has been completed and exit. At
this point when bio_batch_end_io() is going to call complete(bb->wait),
bb and wait does not longer exist since it was allocated on stack in
blkdev_issue_zeroout() ==> panic!
(thread 1) (thread 2)
bio_batch_end_io() blkdev_issue_zeroout()
if(bb) { ...
if (bb->end_io) ...
bb->end_io(bio, err); ...
atomic_inc(&bb->done); ...
... while (issued != atomic_read(&bb.done))
... (let issued == bb.done)
... (do the rest of the function)
... return ret;
complete(bb->wait);
^^^^^^^^
panic
We can fix this easily by simplifying bio_batch and completion counting.
Also remove bio_end_io_t *end_io since it is not used.

blk-flush decomposes a flush into sequence of multiple requests. On
completion of a request, the next one is queued; however, block layer
must not implicitly call into q->request_fn() directly from completion
path. This makes the queue behave unexpectedly when seen from the
drivers and violates the assumption that q->request_fn() is called
with process context + queue_lock.
This patch makes blk-flush the following two changes to make sure
q->request_fn() is not called directly from request completion path.
- blk_flush_complete_seq_end_io() now asks __blk_run_queue() to always
use kblockd instead of calling directly into q->request_fn().
- queue_next_fseq() uses ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE instead of
ELEVATOR_INSERT_FRONT so that elv_insert() doesn't try to unplug the
request queue directly.

__blk_run_queue() automatically either calls q->request_fn() directly
or schedules kblockd depending on whether the function is recursed.
blk-flush implementation needs to be able to explicitly choose
kblockd. Add @force_kblockd.
All the current users are converted to specify %false for the
parameter and this patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.
stable: This is prerequisite for fixing ide oops caused by the new
blk-flush implementation.

o Dominik Klein reported a system hang issue while doing some blkio
throttling testing.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/24/173
o Some tracing revealed that CFQ was not dispatching any more jobs as
queue unplug was not happening. And queue unplug was not happening
because unplug work was not being called as there was one throttling
work on same cpu which as not finished yet. And throttling work had not
finished as it was tyring to dispatch a bio to CFQ but all the request
descriptors were consume to it was put to sleep.
o So basically it is a cyclic dependecny between CFQ unplug work and
throtl dispatch work. Tejun suggested that use separate workqueue for
such cases.
o This patch uses a separate workqueue for throttle related work and
does not rely on kblockd workqueue anymore.

There are two cases when we call flush_disk.
In one, the device has disappeared (check_disk_change) so any
data will hold becomes irrelevant.
In the oter, the device has changed size (check_disk_size_change)
so data we hold may be irrelevant.
In both cases it makes sense to discard any 'clean' buffers,
so they will be read back from the device if needed.
In the former case it makes sense to discard 'dirty' buffers
as there will never be anywhere safe to write the data. In the
second case it *does*not* make sense to discard dirty buffers
as that will lead to file system corruption when you simply enlarge
the containing devices.
flush_disk calls __invalidate_devices.
__invalidate_device calls both invalidate_inodes and invalidate_bdev.
invalidate_inodes *does* discard I_DIRTY inodes and this does lead
to fs corruption.
invalidate_bev *does*not* discard dirty pages, but I don't really care
about that at present.
So this patch adds a flag to __invalidate_device (calling it
__invalidate_device2) to indicate whether dirty buffers should be
killed, and this is passed to invalidate_inodes which can choose to
skip dirty inodes.
flusk_disk then passes true from check_disk_change and false from
check_disk_size_change.
dm avoids tripping over this problem by calling i_size_write directly
rathher than using check_disk_size_change.
md does use check_disk_size_change and so is affected.
This regression was introduced by commit 608aeef17a which causes
check_disk_size_change to call flush_disk, so it is suitable for any
kernel since 2.6.27.

Adam Kovari and others reported that disconnecting an USB drive with
an ntfs-3g filesystem would cause "kernel BUG at fs/inode.c:1421!" to
be triggered.
The BUG could be traced back to ioctl(BLKBSZSET), which would
erroneously decrement the refcount on the bdev. This is because
blkdev_get() expects the refcount to be already incremented and either
returns success or decrements the refcount and returns an error.
The bug was introduced by e525fd89 (block: make blkdev_get/put()
handle exclusive access), which didn't take into account this behavior
of blkdev_get().
This fixes

Commit 7667aa0630407bc07dc38dcc79d29cc0a65553c1 added logic to wait for
the last queue of the group to become busy (have at least one request),
so that the group does not lose out for not being continuously
backlogged. The commit did not check for the condition that the last
queue already has some requests. As a result, if the queue already has
requests, wait_busy is set. Later on, cfq_select_queue() checks the
flag, and decides that since the queue has a request now and wait_busy
is set, the queue is expired. This results in early expiration of the
queue.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a check to see if queue already
has requests. If it does, wait_busy is not set. As a result, time slices
do not expire early.
The queues with more than one request are usually buffered writers.
Testing shows improvement in isolation between buffered writers.

o Jeff Moyer was doing some testing on a RAM backed disk and
blkiocg_lookup_group() showed up high overhead after memcpy(). Similarly
somebody else reported that blkiocg_lookup_group() is eating 6% extra
cpu. Though looking at the code I can't think why the overhead of
this function is so high. One thing is that it is called with very high
frequency (once for every IO).
o For lot of folks blkio controller will be compiled in but they might
not have actually created cgroups. Hence optimize the case of root
cgroup where we can avoid calling blkiocg_lookup_group() if IO is happening
in root group (common case).

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.
This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).
Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.
