We have two seperate config entries for large devices/files. One
is CONFIG_LBD that guards just the devices, the other is CONFIG_LSF
that handles large files. This doesn't make a lot of sense, you typically
want both or none. So get rid of CONFIG_LSF and change CONFIG_LBD wording
to indicate that it covers both.

disk_map_sector_rcu() returns a partition from a sector offset,
which we use for IO statistics on a per-partition basis. The
lookup itself is an O(N) list lookup, where N is the number of
partitions. This actually hurts performance quite a bit, even
on the lower end partitions. On higher numbered partitions,
it can get pretty bad.
Solve this by adding a one-hit cache for partition lookup.
This makes the lookup O(1) for the case where we do most IO to
one partition. Even for mixed partition workloads, amortized cost
is pretty close to O(1) since the natural IO batching makes the
one-hit cache last for lots of IOs.

The mm->ioctx_list is currently protected by a reader-writer lock,
so we always grab that lock on the read side for doing ioctx
lookups. As the workload is extremely reader biased, turn this into
an rcu hlist so we can make lookup_ioctx() lockless. Get rid of
the rwlock and use a spinlock for providing update side exclusion.
There's usually only 1 entry on this list, so it doesn't make sense
to look into fancier data structures.

When we go and allocate a bio for IO, we actually do two allocations.
One for the bio itself, and one for the bi_io_vec that holds the
actual pages we are interested in.
This feature inlines a definable amount of io vecs inside the bio
itself, so we eliminate the bio_vec array allocation for IO's up
to a certain size. It defaults to 4 vecs, which is typically 16k
of IO.

Instead of having a global bio slab cache, add a reference to one
in each bio_set that is created. This allows for personalized slabs
in each bio_set, so that they can have bios of different sizes.
This means we can personalize the bios we return. File systems may
want to embed the bio inside another structure, to avoid allocation
more items (and stuffing them in ->bi_private) after the get a bio.
Or we may want to embed a number of bio_vecs directly at the end
of a bio, to avoid doing two allocations to return a bio. This is now
possible.

We only very rarely need the mempool backing, so it makes sense to
get rid of all but one of the mempool in a bio_set. So keep the
largest bio_vec count mempool so we can always honor the largest
allocation, and "upgrade" callers that fail.

Empty barrier required special handling in __elv_next_request() to
complete it without letting the low level driver see it.
With previous changes, barrier code is now flexible enough to skip the
BAR step using the same barrier sequence selection mechanism. Drop
the special handling and mask off q->ordered from start_ordered().
Remove blk_empty_barrier() test which now has no user.

Barrier completion had the following assumptions.
* start_ordered() couldn't finish the whole sequence properly. If all
actions are to be skipped, q->ordseq is set correctly but the actual
completion was never triggered thus hanging the barrier request.
* Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's
always at least one request in the queue when drain completes.
Both assumptions are true but these assumptions need to be removed to
improve empty barrier implementation. This patch makes the following
changes.
* Make start_ordered() use blk_ordered_complete_seq() to mark skipped
steps complete and notify __elv_next_request() that it should fetch
the next request if the whole barrier has completed inside
start_ordered().
* Make drain completion path in elv_complete_request() check whether
the queue is empty. Empty queue also indicates drain completion.
* While at it, convert 0/1 return from blk_do_ordered() to false/true.

In all barrier sequences, the barrier write itself was always assumed
to be issued and thus didn't have corresponding control flag. This
patch adds QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_BAR and unify action mask handling in
start_ordered() such that any barrier action can be skipped.
This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.

Separate out ordering type (drain,) and action masks (preflush,
postflush, fua) from visible ordering mode selectors
(QUEUE_ORDERED_*). Ordering types are now named QUEUE_ORDERED_BY_*
while action masks are named QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_*.
This change is necessary to add QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_BAR and make it
optional to improve empty barrier implementation.

After many improvements on kblockd_flush_work, it is now identical to
cancel_work_sync, so a direct call to cancel_work_sync is suggested.
The only difference is that cancel_work_sync is a GPL symbol,
so no non-GPL modules anymore.

Allow the scsi request REQ_QUIET flag to be propagated to the buffer
file system layer. The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi
request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer. The buffer
layer can then suppress needless printks.
This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun)
buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It
is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the
logs without this patch.
During boot I see blocks of messages like
"
__ratelimit: 211 callbacks suppressed
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242847
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 1
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242878
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242872
"
in my logs.
My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC
code and multipathd. This topology includes an "active" and "ghost"
path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the
SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs
to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi
layer messages.
I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file
system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this
patch for a while now on several boxes without issue. A few runs of
bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup.
Thanks for John Stultz for the quiet_error finalization.

As is the case with SSD devices, we do not want to idle in AS/CFQ when
the block device is a paravirt front-end driver. This patch adds a flag
(QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT) which should be used by front-end drivers such as
virtio_blk and xen-blkfront to indicate a paravirtualized device.

Impact: simplify code
commit "08678b0: generic: sparse irqs: use irq_desc() [...]" introduced
the irq_desc_lock_class variable.
But it is used only if CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y or CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=Y.
Otherwise, following warnings happen:
CC kernel/irq/handle.o
kernel/irq/handle.c:26: warning: 'irq_desc_lock_class' defined but not used
Actually, current early_init_irq_lock_class has a bit strange and messy ifdef.
In addition, it is not valueable.
1. this function is protected by !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ, but that is not necessary.
if CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y, desc of all irq number are initialized by NULL
at first - then this function calling is safe.
2. this function protected by CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS too. but it is not
necessary either, because lockdep_set_class() doesn't have bad side
effect even if CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=n.
This patch bloat kernel size a bit on CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=n and
CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y - but that's ok. early_init_irq_lock_class() is not
a fastpatch at all.
To avoid messy ifdefs is more important than a few bytes diet.

Impact: improve NUMA handling by migrating irq_desc on smp_affinity changes
if CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC is set:
- make irq_desc to go with affinity aka irq_desc moving etc
- call move_irq_desc in irq_complete_move()
- legacy irq_desc is not moved, because they are allocated via static array
for logical apic mode, need to add move_desc_in_progress_in_same_domain,
otherwise it will not be moved ==> also could need two phases to get
irq_desc moved.

Impact: new feature
Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.
To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.
When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).
This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

Impact: reduce struct irq_desc size
struct irq_desc: reorder to remove padding on 64bits
shrinks irq_desc to 128 bytes which saves data space & cache lines
On a generic x86_64/SMP build this reduces the reported data size by
64k.

Impact: restructure, clean up code
k_itimer holds the ref to the ->it_process until sys_timer_delete(). This
allows to pin up to RLIMIT_SIGPENDING dead task_struct's. Change the code
to use "struct pid *" instead.
The patch doesn't kill ->it_process, it places ->it_pid into the union.
->it_process is still used by do_cpu_nanosleep() as before. It would be
trivial to change the nanosleep code as well, but since it uses it_process
in a special way I think it is better to keep this field for grep.
The patch bloats the kernel by 104 bytes and it also adds the new pointer,
->it_signal, to k_itimer. It is used by lock_timer() to verify that the
found timer was not created by another process. It is not clear why do we
use the global database (and thus the global idr_lock) for posix timers.
We still need the signal_struct->posix_timers which contains all useable
timers, perhaps it is better to use some form of per-process array
instead.

Impact: cleanup, move all hrtimer processing into hardirq context
This is an attempt at removing some of the hrtimer complexity by
reducing the number of callback modes to 1.
This means that all hrtimer callback functions will be ran from HARD-irq
context.
I went through all the 30 odd hrtimer callback functions in the kernel
and saw only one that I'm not quite sure of, which is the one in
net/can/bcm.c - hence I'm CC-ing the folks responsible for that code.
Furthermore, the hrtimer core now calls callbacks directly with IRQs
disabled in case you try to enqueue an expired timer. If this timer is a
periodic timer (which should use hrtimer_forward() to advance its time)
then it might be possible to end up in an inf. recursive loop due to the
fact that hrtimer_forward() doesn't round up to the next timer
granularity, and therefore keeps on calling the callback - obviously
this needs a fix.
Aside from that, this seems to compile and actually boot on my dual core
test box - although I'm sure there are some bugs in, me not hitting any
makes me certain :-)

Impact: remove unused code
__local_bh_enable has been replaced with _local_bh_enable.
As comments says "it always nests inside local_bh_enable() sections"
has not been valid now. Also there is no reason to use __local_bh_enable
anywhere, so we can remove this useless function.

This patch fixes a long-standing performance bug in classic RCU that
results in massive internal-to-RCU lock contention on systems with
more than a few hundred CPUs. Although this patch creates a separate
flavor of RCU for ease of review and patch maintenance, it is intended
to replace classic RCU.
This patch still handles stress better than does mainline, so I am still
calling it ready for inclusion. This patch is against the -tip tree.
Nevertheless, experience on an actual 1000+ CPU machine would still be
most welcome.
Most of the changes noted below were found while creating an rcutiny
(which should permit ejecting the current rcuclassic) and while doing
detailed line-by-line documentation.
Updates from v9 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/2/334):
o Fixes from remainder of line-by-line code walkthrough,
including comment spelling, initialization, undesirable
narrowing due to type conversion, removing redundant memory
barriers, removing redundant local-variable initialization,
and removing redundant local variables.
I do not believe that any of these fixes address the CPU-hotplug
issues that Andi Kleen was seeing, but please do give it a whirl
in case the machine is smarter than I am.
A writeup from the walkthrough may be found at the following
URL, in case you are suffering from terminal insomnia or
masochism:

o Made rcutree tracing use seq_file, as suggested some time
ago by Lai Jiangshan.
o Added a .csv variant of the rcudata debugfs trace file, to allow
people having thousands of CPUs to drop the data into
a spreadsheet. Tested with oocalc and gnumeric. Updated
documentation to suit.
Updates from v8 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/15/139):
o Fix a theoretical race between grace-period initialization and
force_quiescent_state() that could occur if more than three
jiffies were required to carry out the grace-period
initialization. Which it might, if you had enough CPUs.
o Apply Ingo's printk-standardization patch.
o Substitute local variables for repeated accesses to global
variables.
o Fix comment misspellings and redundant (but harmless) increments
of ->n_rcu_pending (this latter after having explicitly added it).
o Apply checkpatch fixes.
Updates from v7 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/10/291):
o Fixed a number of problems noted by Gautham Shenoy, including
the cpu-stall-detection bug that he was having difficulty
convincing me was real. ;-)
o Changed cpu-stall detection to wait for ten seconds rather than
three in order to reduce false positive, as suggested by Ingo
Molnar.
o Produced a design document (http://lwn.net/Articles/305782/).
The act of writing this document uncovered a number of both
theoretical and "here and now" bugs as noted below.
o Fix dynticks_nesting accounting confusion, simplify WARN_ON()
condition, fix kerneldoc comments, and add memory barriers
in dynticks interface functions.
o Add more data to tracing.
o Remove unused "rcu_barrier" field from rcu_data structure.
o Count calls to rcu_pending() from scheduling-clock interrupt
to use as a surrogate timebase should jiffies stop counting.
o Fix a theoretical race between force_quiescent_state() and
grace-period initialization. Yes, initialization does have to
go on for some jiffies for this race to occur, but given enough
CPUs...
Updates from v6 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/23/448):
o Fix a number of checkpatch.pl complaints.
o Apply review comments from Ingo Molnar and Lai Jiangshan
on the stall-detection code.
o Fix several bugs in !CONFIG_SMP builds.
o Fix a misspelled config-parameter name so that RCU now announces
at boot time if stall detection is configured.
o Run tests on numerous combinations of configurations parameters,
which after the fixes above, now build and run correctly.
Updates from v5 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/15/92, bad subject line):
o Fix a compiler error in the !CONFIG_FANOUT_EXACT case (blew a
changeset some time ago, and finally got around to retesting
this option).
o Fix some tracing bugs in rcupreempt that caused incorrect
totals to be printed.
o I now test with a more brutal random-selection online/offline
script (attached). Probably more brutal than it needs to be
on the people reading it as well, but so it goes.
o A number of optimizations and usability improvements:
o Make rcu_pending() ignore the grace-period timeout when
there is no grace period in progress.
o Make force_quiescent_state() avoid going for a global
lock in the case where there is no grace period in
progress.
o Rearrange struct fields to improve struct layout.
o Make call_rcu() initiate a grace period if RCU was
idle, rather than waiting for the next scheduling
clock interrupt.
o Invoke rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() only when
idle, as suggested by Andi Kleen. I still don't
completely trust this change, and might back it out.
o Make CONFIG_RCU_TRACE be the single config variable
manipulated for all forms of RCU, instead of the prior
confusion.
o Document tracing files and formats for both rcupreempt
and rcutree.
Updates from v4 for those missing v5 given its bad subject line:
o Separated dynticks interface so that NMIs and irqs call separate
functions, greatly simplifying it. In particular, this code
no longer requires a proof of correctness. ;-)
o Separated dynticks state out into its own per-CPU structure,
avoiding the duplicated accounting.
o The case where a dynticks-idle CPU runs an irq handler that
invokes call_rcu() is now correctly handled, forcing that CPU
out of dynticks-idle mode.
o Review comments have been applied (thank you all!!!).
For but one example, fixed the dynticks-ordering issue that
Manfred pointed out, saving me much debugging. ;-)
o Adjusted rcuclassic and rcupreempt to handle dynticks changes.
Attached is an updated patch to Classic RCU that applies a hierarchy,
greatly reducing the contention on the top-level lock for large machines.
This passes 10-hour concurrent rcutorture and online-offline testing on
128-CPU ppc64 without dynticks enabled, and exposes some timekeeping
bugs in presence of dynticks (exciting working on a system where
"sleep 1" hangs until interrupted...), which were fixed in the
2.6.27 kernel. It is getting more reliable than mainline by some
measures, so the next version will be against -tip for inclusion.
See also Manfred Spraul's recent patches (or his earlier work from
2004 at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=108546384711797&w=2).
We will converge onto a common patch in the fullness of time, but are
currently exploring different regions of the design space. That said,
I have already gratefully stolen quite a few of Manfred's ideas.
This patch provides CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, which controls the bushiness
of the RCU hierarchy. Defaults to 32 on 32-bit machines and 64 on
64-bit machines. If CONFIG_NR_CPUS is less than CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT,
there is no hierarchy. By default, the RCU initialization code will
adjust CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT to balance the hierarchy, so strongly NUMA
architectures may choose to set CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_EXACT to disable
this balancing, allowing the hierarchy to be exactly aligned to the
underlying hardware. Up to two levels of hierarchy are permitted
(in addition to the root node), allowing up to 16,384 CPUs on 32-bit
systems and up to 262,144 CPUs on 64-bit systems. I just know that I
am going to regret saying this, but this seems more than sufficient
for the foreseeable future. (Some architectures might wish to set
CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=4, which would limit such architectures to 64 CPUs.
If this becomes a real problem, additional levels can be added, but I
doubt that it will make a significant difference on real hardware.)
In the common case, a given CPU will manipulate its private rcu_data
structure and the rcu_node structure that it shares with its immediate
neighbors. This can reduce both lock and memory contention by multiple
orders of magnitude, which should eliminate the need for the strange
manipulations that are reported to be required when running Linux on
very large systems.
Some shortcomings:
o More bugs will probably surface as a result of an ongoing
line-by-line code inspection.
Patches will be provided as required.
o There are probably hangs, rcutorture failures, &c. Seems
quite stable on a 128-CPU machine, but that is kind of small
compared to 4096 CPUs. However, seems to do better than
mainline.
Patches will be provided as required.
o The memory footprint of this version is several KB larger
than rcuclassic.
A separate UP-only rcutiny patch will be provided, which will
reduce the memory footprint significantly, even compared
to the old rcuclassic. One such patch passes light testing,
and has a memory footprint smaller even than rcuclassic.
Initial reaction from various embedded guys was "it is not
worth it", so am putting it aside.

Impact: introduce new lockdep API
Allow to change a held lock's class. Basically the same as the existing
code to change a subclass therefore reuse all that.
The XFS code will be able to use this to annotate their inode locking.

Impact: generalize the sw-IOTLB range checks
Some architectures require special rules to determine whether a range
needs mapping or not. This adds a weak function for architectures to
override.

FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET could be used instead of FUTEX_WAIT by setting the
bit set to FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY, but FUTEX_WAIT uses CLOCK_REALTIME
while FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET uses CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
Add a flag to select CLOCK_REALTIME for FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET so glibc can
replace the FUTEX_WAIT logic which needs to do gettimeofday() calls
before and after the syscall to convert the absolute timeout to a
relative timeout for FUTEX_WAIT.
