      tracing/events: convert block trace points to TRACE_EVENT() · 55782138
      由 Li Zefan 提交于 
      TRACE_EVENT is a more generic way to define tracepoints. Doing so adds
these new capabilities to this tracepoint:

  - zero-copy and per-cpu splice() tracing
  - binary tracing without printf overhead
  - structured logging records exposed under /debug/tracing/events
  - trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins
  - user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions
  ...

Cons:

  - no dev_t info for the output of plug, unplug_timer and unplug_io events.
    no dev_t info for getrq and sleeprq events if bio == NULL.
    no dev_t info for rq_abort,...,rq_requeue events if rq->rq_disk == NULL.

    This is mainly because we can't get the deivce from a request queue.
    But this may change in the future.

  - A packet command is converted to a string in TP_assign, not TP_print.
    While blktrace do the convertion just before output.

    Since pc requests should be rather rare, this is not a big issue.

  - In blktrace, an event can have 2 different print formats, but a TRACE_EVENT
    has a unique format, which means we have some unused data in a trace entry.

    The overhead is minimized by using __dynamic_array() instead of __array().

I've benchmarked the ioctl blktrace vs the splice based TRACE_EVENT tracing:

      dd                   dd + ioctl blktrace       dd + TRACE_EVENT (splice)
1     7.36s, 42.7 MB/s     7.50s, 42.0 MB/s          7.41s, 42.5 MB/s
2     7.43s, 42.3 MB/s     7.48s, 42.1 MB/s          7.43s, 42.4 MB/s
3     7.38s, 42.6 MB/s     7.45s, 42.2 MB/s          7.41s, 42.5 MB/s

So the overhead of tracing is very small, and no regression when using
those trace events vs blktrace.

And the binary output of TRACE_EVENT is much smaller than blktrace:

 # ls -l -h
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.8M 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.0
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 195K 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.1
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.7M 06-09 13:25 trace_splice.out

Changelog from v2 -> v3:

- use the newly introduced __dynamic_array().

Changelog from v1 -> v2:

- use __string() instead of __array() to minimize the memory required
  to store hex dump of rq->cmd().

- support large pc requests.

- add missing blk_fill_rwbs_rq() in block_rq_requeue TRACE_EVENT.

- some cleanups.

      bio: use bio_kmalloc() in copy/map functions · a9e9dc24
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Impact: remove possible deadlock condition

There is no reason to use mempool backed allocation for map functions.
Also, because kern mapping is used inside LLDs (e.g. for EH), using
mempool backed allocation can lead to deadlock under extreme
conditions (mempool already consumed by the time a request reached EH
and requests are blocked on EH).

Switch copy/map functions to bio_kmalloc().

      bio: fix bio_kmalloc() · 451a9ebf
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Impact: fix bio_kmalloc() and its destruction path

bio_kmalloc() was broken in two ways.

* bvec_alloc_bs() first allocates bvec using kmalloc() and then
  ignores it and allocates again like non-kmalloc bvecs.

* bio_kmalloc_destructor() didn't check for and free bio integrity
  data.

This patch fixes the above problems.  kmalloc patch is separated out
from bio_alloc_bioset() and allocates the requested number of bvecs as
inline bvecs.

* bio_alloc_bioset() no longer takes NULL @bs.  None other than
  bio_kmalloc() used it and outside users can't know how it was
  allocated anyway.

* Define and use BIO_POOL_NONE so that pool index check in
  bvec_free_bs() triggers if inline or kmalloc allocated bvec gets
  there.

* Relocate destructors on top of each allocation function so that how
  they're used is more clear.

Jens Axboe suggested allocating bvecs inline.

      bio: get rid of bio_vec clearing · d3f76110
      由 Jens Axboe 提交于 
      We don't need to clear the memory used for adding bio_vec entries,
since nobody should be looking at members unitialized. Any valid
use should be below bio->bi_vcnt, and that members up until that count
must be valid since they were added through bio_add_page().

      bio: add support for inlining a number of bio_vecs inside the bio · 392ddc32
      由 Jens Axboe 提交于 
      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.

      bio: allow individual slabs in the bio_set · bb799ca0
      由 Jens Axboe 提交于 
      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.

      bio: only mempool back the largest bio_vec slab cache · 7ff9345f
      由 Jens Axboe 提交于 
      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.
