      blkcg: move statistics update code to policies · 629ed0b1
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      As with conf/stats file handling code, there's no reason for stat
      update code to live in blkcg core with policies calling into update
      them.  The current organization is both inflexible and complex.
      
      This patch moves stat update code to specific policies.  All
      blkiocg_update_*_stats() functions which deal with BLKIO_POLICY_PROP
      stats are collapsed into their cfq_blkiocg_update_*_stats()
      counterparts.  blkiocg_update_dispatch_stats() is used by both
      policies and duplicated as throtl_update_dispatch_stats() and
      cfq_blkiocg_update_dispatch_stats().  This will be cleaned up later.

      blkcg: move conf/stat file handling code to policies · 60c2bc2d
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg conf/stat handling is convoluted in that details which belong to
      specific policy implementations are all out in blkcg core and then
      policies hook into core layer to access and manipulate confs and
      stats.  This sadly achieves both inflexibility (confs/stats can't be
      modified without messing with blkcg core) and complexity (all the
      call-ins and call-backs).
      
      The previous patches restructured conf and stat handling code such
      that they can be separated out.  This patch relocates the file
      handling part.  All conf/stat file handling code which belongs to
      BLKIO_POLICY_PROP is moved to cfq-iosched.c and all
      BKLIO_POLICY_THROTL code to blk-throtl.c.
      
      The move is verbatim except for blkio_update_group_{weight|bps|iops}()
      callbacks which relays conf changes to policies.  The configuration
      settings are handled in policies themselves so the relaying isn't
      necessary.  Conf setting functions are modified to directly call
      per-policy update functions and the relaying mechanism is dropped.

      Similarly to the previous stat restructuring, this patch restructures

      * Conf printing uses the same helpers as stat.

      blkcg: restructure statistics printing · d3d32e69
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg stats handling is a mess.  None of the stats has much to do with
      blkcg core but they are all implemented in blkcg core.  Code sharing
      is achieved by mixing common code with hard-coded cases for each stat
      counter.
      
      This patch restructures statistics printing such that
      
      * Common logic exists as helper functions and specific print functions
        use the helpers to implement specific cases.
      
      * Printing functions serving multiple counters don't require hardcoded
        switching on specific counters.
      
      * Printing uses read_seq_string callback (other methods will be phased
        out).

      blkcg: introduce blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat · edcb0722
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg uses u64_stats_sync to avoid reading wrong u64 statistic values
      on 32bit archs and some stat counters have subtypes to distinguish
      read/writes and sync/async IOs.  The stat code paths are confusing and
      involve a lot of going back and forth between blkcg core and specific
      policy implementations, and synchronization and subtype handling are
      open coded in blkcg core.
      
      This patch introduces struct blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat which, with
      accompanying operations, encapsulate stat updating and accessing with
      proper synchronization.
      
      blkg_stat is simple u64 counter with 64bit read-access protection.
      blkg_rwstat is the one with rw and [a]sync subcounters and takes @rw
      flags to distinguish IO subtypes (%REQ_WRITE and %REQ_SYNC) and
      replaces stat_sub_type indexed arrays.
      
      All counters in blkio_group_stats and blkio_group_stats_cpu are
      replaced with either blkg_stat or blkg_rwstat along with all users.
      
      This does add one u64_stats_sync per counter and increase stats_sync
      operations but they're empty/noops on 64bit archs and blkcg doesn't
      have too many counters, especially with DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP off.
      
      While the currently resulting code isn't necessarily simpler at the
      moment, this will enable further clean up of blkcg stats code.
      
      - BLKIO_STAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL} renamed to
        BLKG_RWSTAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL}.
      
      - blkg_stat_add() replaces blkio_add_stat() and
        blkio_check_and_dec_stat().  Note that BUG_ON() on underflow in the
        latter function no longer exists.  It's *way* better to have
        underflowed stat counters than oopsing.
      
      - blkio_group_stats->dequeue is now a proper u64 stat counter instead
        of ulong.
      
      - reset_stats() updated to clear each stat counters individually and
        BLKG_STATS_DEBUG_CLEAR_{START|SIZE} are removed.
      
      - Some functions reconstruct rw flags from direction and sync
        booleans.  This will be removed by future patches.

      blkcg: simplify stat reset · 997a026c
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkiocg_reset_stats() implements stat reset for blkio.reset_stats
      cgroupfs file.  This feature is very unconventional and something
      which shouldn't have been merged.  It's only useful when there's only
      one user or tool looking at the stats.  As soon as multiple users
      and/or tools are involved, it becomes useless as resetting disrupts
      other usages.  There are very good reasons why all other stats expect
      readers to read values at the start and end of a period and subtract
      to determine delta over the period.
      
      The implementation is rather complex - some fields shouldn't be
      cleared and it saves some fields, resets whole and restores for some
      reason.  Reset of percpu stats is also racy.  The comment points to
      64bit store atomicity for the reason but even without that stores for
      zero can simply race with other CPUs doing RMW and get clobbered.
      
      Simplify reset by
      
      * Clear selectively instead of resetting and restoring.
      
      * Grouping debug stat fields to be reset and using memset() over them.
      
      * Not caring about stats_lock.

      blkcg: alloc per cpu stats from worker thread in a delayed manner · 1cd9e039
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      Current per cpu stat allocation assumes GFP_KERNEL allocation flag. But in
      IO path there are times when we want GFP_NOIO semantics. As there is no
      way to pass the allocation flags to alloc_percpu(), this patch delays the
      allocation of stats using a worker thread.
      
      v2-> tejun suggested following changes. Changed the patch accordingly.
      	- move alloc_node location in structure
      	- reduce the size of names of some of the fields
      	- Reduce the scope of locking of alloc_list_lock
      	- Simplified stat_alloc_fn() by allocating stats for all
      	  policies in one go and then assigning these to a group.
      
      v3 -> Andrew suggested to put some comments in the code. Also raised
            concerns about trying to allocate infinitely in case of allocation
            failure. I have changed the logic to sleep for 10ms before retrying.
            That should take care of non-preemptible UP kernels.
      
      v4 -> Tejun had more suggestions.
      	- drop list_for_each_entry_all()
      	- instead of msleep() use queue_delayed_work()
      	- Some cleanups realted to more compact coding.
      
      v5-> tejun suggested more cleanups leading to more compact code.
      
      tj: - Relocated pcpu_stats into blkio_stat_alloc_fn().
          - Minor comment update.
          - This also fixes suspicious RCU usage warning caused by invoking
            cgroup_path() from blkg_alloc() without holding RCU read lock.
            Now that blkg_alloc() doesn't require sleepable context, RCU

      blkcg: use double locking instead of RCU for blkg synchronization · 9f13ef67
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkgs are chained from both blkcgs and request_queues and thus
      subjected to two locks - blkcg->lock and q->queue_lock.  As both blkcg
      and q can go away anytime, locking during removal is tricky.  It's
      currently solved by wrapping removal inside RCU, which makes the
      synchronization complex.  There are three locks to worry about - the
      outer RCU, q lock and blkcg lock, and it leads to nasty subtle
      complications like conditional synchronize_rcu() on queue exit paths.
      
      For all other paths, blkcg lock is naturally nested inside q lock and
      the only exception is blkcg removal path, which is a very cold path
      and can be implemented as clumsy but conceptually-simple reverse
      double lock dancing.
      
      This patch updates blkg removal path such that blkgs are removed while
      holding both q and blkcg locks, which is trivial for request queue
      exit path - blkg_destroy_all().  The blkcg removal path,
      blkiocg_pre_destroy(), implements reverse double lock dancing
      essentially identical to ioc_release_fn().
      
      This simplifies blkg locking - no half-dead blkgs to worry about.  Now
      unnecessary RCU annotations will be removed by the next patch.

      blkcg: unify blkg's for blkcg policies · e8989fae
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, blkg is per cgroup-queue-policy combination.  This is
      unnatural and leads to various convolutions in partially used
      duplicate fields in blkg, config / stat access, and general management
      of blkgs.
      
      This patch make blkg's per cgroup-queue and let them serve all
      policies.  blkgs are now created and destroyed by blkcg core proper.
      This will allow further consolidation of common management logic into
      blkcg core and API with better defined semantics and layering.
      
      As a transitional step to untangle blkg management, elvswitch and
      policy [de]registration, all blkgs except the root blkg are being shot
      down during elvswitch and bypass.  This patch adds blkg_root_update()
      to update root blkg in place on policy change.  This is hacky and racy
      but should be good enough as interim step until we get locking
      simplified and switch over to proper in-place update for all blkgs.
      
      -v2: Root blkgs need to be updated on elvswitch too and blkg_alloc()
           comment wasn't updated according to the function change.  Fixed.
           Both pointed out by Vivek.
      
      -v3: v2 updated blkg_destroy_all() to invoke update_root_blkg_pd() for
           all policies.  This freed root pd during elvswitch before the
           last queue finished exiting and led to oops.  Directly invoke
           update_root_blkg_pd() only on BLKIO_POLICY_PROP from
           cfq_exit_queue().  This also is closer to what will be done with
           proper in-place blkg update.  Reported by Vivek.

      With the previous patch to move blkg list heads and counters to
      request_queue and blkg, logic to manage them in both policies are
      almost identical and can be moved to blkcg core.
      
      This patch moves blkg link logic into blkg_lookup_create(), implements
      common blkg unlink code in blkg_destroy(), and updates
      blkg_destory_all() so that it's policy specific and can skip root
      group.  The updated blkg_destroy_all() is now used to both clear queue
      for bypassing and elv switching, and release all blkgs on q exit.
      
      This patch introduces a race window where policy [de]registration may
      race against queue blkg clearing.  This can only be a problem on cfq
      unload and shouldn't be a real problem in practice (and we have many
      other places where this race already exists).  Future patches will
      remove these unlikely races.

      unnecessarily, and hinders factoring common code and providing blkcg
      API with better defined semantics.
      
      After this patch, request_queue hosts list heads and counters and blkg
      has list nodes for both policies.  This patch only relocates the
      necessary fields and the next patch will actually move management code
      into blkcg core.
      
      Note that request_queue->blkg_list[] and ->nr_blkgs[] are hardcoded to
      have 2 elements.  This is to avoid include dependency and will be
      removed by the next patch.
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.

      blkg is scheduled to be unified for all policies and thus there won't
      be one-to-one mapping from blkg to policy.  Update stat related
      functions to take explicit @pol or @plid arguments and not use

      This is painful for now but most of specific stat interface functions

      blkcg: let blkcg core handle policy private data allocation · 0381411e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, blkg's are embedded in private data blkcg policy private
      data structure and thus allocated and freed by policies.  This leads
      to duplicate codes in policies, hinders implementing common part in
      blkcg core with strong semantics, and forces duplicate blkg's for the
      same cgroup-q association.
      
      This patch introduces struct blkg_policy_data which is a separate data
      structure chained from blkg.  Policies specifies the amount of private
      data it needs in its blkio_policy_type->pdata_size and blkcg core
      takes care of allocating them along with blkg which can be accessed
      using blkg_to_pdata().  blkg can be determined from pdata using
      pdata_to_blkg().  blkio_alloc_group_fn() method is accordingly updated
      to blkio_init_group_fn().
      
      For consistency, tg_of_blkg() and cfqg_of_blkg() are replaced with
      blkg_to_tg() and blkg_to_cfqg() respectively, and functions to map in
      the reverse direction are added.
      
      Except that policy specific data now lives in a separate data
      structure from blkg, this patch doesn't introduce any functional
      difference.

      blkcg: kill the mind-bending blkg->dev · 7a4dd281
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkg->dev is dev_t recording the device number of the block device for
      the associated request_queue.  It is used to identify the associated
      block device when printing out configuration or stats.
      
      This is redundant to begin with.  A blkg is an association between a
      cgroup and a request_queue and it of course is possible to reach
      request_queue from blkg and synchronization conventions are in place
      for safe q dereferencing, so this shouldn't be necessary from the
      beginning.  Furthermore, it's initialized by sscanf()ing the device
      name of backing_dev_info.  The mind boggles.
      
      Anyways, if blkg is visible under rcu lock, we *know* that the
      associated request_queue hasn't gone away yet and its bdi is
      registered and alive - blkg can't be created for request_queue which
      hasn't been fully initialized and it can't go away before blkg is
      removed.
      
      Let stat and conf read functions get device name from
      blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev and pass it down to printing functions
      and remove blkg->dev.

      blkcg: don't allow or retain configuration of missing devices · e56da7e2
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg is very peculiar in that it allows setting and remembering
      configurations for non-existent devices by maintaining separate data
      structures for configuration.
      
      This behavior is completely out of the usual norms and outright
      confusing; furthermore, it uses dev_t number to match the
      configuration to devices, which is unpredictable to begin with and
      becomes completely unuseable if EXT_DEVT is fully used.
      
      It is wholely unnecessary - we already have fully functional userland
      mechanism to program devices being hotplugged which has full access to
      device identification, connection topology and filesystem information.
      
      Add a new struct blkio_group_conf which contains all blkcg
      configurations to blkio_group and let blkio_group, which can be
      created iff the associated device exists and is removed when the
      associated device goes away, carry all configurations.
      
      Note that, after this patch, all newly created blkg's will always have
      the default configuration (unlimited for throttling and blkcg's weight
      for propio).
      
      This patch makes blkio_policy_node meaningless but doesn't remove it.

      blkcg: factor out blkio_group creation · cd1604fa
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched implement their own
      blkio_group creation code in throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg().  This
      patch factors out the common code into blkg_lookup_create(), which
      returns ERR_PTR value so that transitional failures due to queue
      bypass can be distinguished from other failures.
      
      * New plkio_policy_ops methods blkio_alloc_group_fn() and
        blkio_link_group_fn added.  Both are transitional and will be
        removed once the blkg management code is fully moved into
        blk-cgroup.c.
      
      * blkio_alloc_group_fn() allocates policy-specific blkg which is
        usually a larger data structure with blkg as the first entry and
        intiailizes it.  Note that initialization of blkg proper, including
        percpu stats, is responsibility of blk-cgroup proper.
      
        Note that default config (weight, bps...) initialization is done
        from this method; otherwise, we end up violating locking order
        between blkcg and q locks via blkcg_get_CONF() functions.
      
      * blkio_link_group_fn() is called under queue_lock and responsible for
        linking the blkg to the queue.  blkcg side is handled by blk-cgroup
        proper.
      
      * The common blkg creation function is named blkg_lookup_create() and
        blkiocg_lookup_group() is renamed to blkg_lookup() for consistency.
        Also, throtl / cfq related functions are similarly [re]named for
        consistency.
      
      This simplifies blkcg policy implementations and enables further
      cleanup.
      
      -v2: Vivek noticed that blkg_lookup_create() incorrectly tested
           blk_queue_dead() instead of blk_queue_bypass() leading a user of
           the function ending up creating a new blkg on bypassing queue.
           This is a bug introduced while relocating bypass patches before
           this one.  Fixed.
      
      -v3: ERR_PTR patch folded into this one.  @for_root added to

      Elevator switch may involve changes to blkcg policies.  Implement
      shoot down of blkio_groups.
      
      Combined with the previous bypass updates, the end goal is updating
      blkcg core such that it can ensure that blkcg's being affected become
      quiescent and don't have any per-blkg data hanging around before
      commencing any policy updates.  Until queues are made aware of the
      policies that applies to them, as an interim step, all per-policy blkg
      data will be shot down.
      
      * blk-throtl doesn't need this change as it can't be disabled for a
        live queue; however, update it anyway as the scheduled blkg
        unification requires this behavior change.  This means that
        blk-throtl configuration will be unnecessarily lost over elevator
        switch.  This oddity will be removed after blkcg learns to associate

      * blk-throtl dosen't shoot down root_tg.  This is to ease transition.
        Unified blkg will always have persistent root group and not shooting
        down root_tg for now eases transition to that point by avoiding
        having to update td->root_tg and is safe as blk-throtl can never be
        disabled

           soon be removed once locking is updated such that blkg is never
           in limbo state between blkcg and request_queue locks.
      
           blk-throtl no longer shoots down root_tg to avoid breaking
           td->root_tg.
