Dispatch may still be in-progress after queue is frozen, so we have to quiesce queue before switching IO scheduler and updating nr_requests. Also when switching io schedulers, blk_mq_run_hw_queue() may still be called somewhere(such as from nvme_reset_work()), and io scheduler's per-hctx data may not be setup yet, so cause oops even inside blk_mq_hctx_has_pending(), such as it can be run just between: ret = e->ops.mq.init_sched(q, e); AND ret = e->ops.mq.init_hctx(hctx, i) inside blk_mq_init_sched(). This reverts commit 7a148c2f(block: don't call blk_mq_quiesce_queue() after queue is frozen) basically, and makes sure blk_mq_hctx_has_pending won't be called if queue is quiesced.

There is a race between changing I/O elevator and request_queue removal which can trigger the warning in kobject_add_internal. A program can use sysfs to request a change of elevator at the same time another task is unregistering the request_queue the elevator would be attached to. The elevator's kobject will then attempt to be connected to the request_queue in the object tree when the request_queue has just been removed from sysfs. This triggers the warning in kobject_add_internal as the request_queue no longer has a sysfs directory: kobject_add_internal failed for iosched (error: -2 parent: queue) ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 14075 at lib/kobject.c:244 kobject_add_internal+0x103/0x2d0 To fix this warning, we can check the QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED flag when changing the elevator and use the request_queue's sysfs_lock to serialize between clearing the flag and the elevator testing the flag.

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.

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to stop having to shift around the operation values. In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do that later) and thus clean up a lot of code. Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now. Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of use to the block layer and a few drivers that dig into struct request internals. This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests. It also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for struct request.

Before merging a bio into an existing request, io scheduler is called to get its approval first. However, the requests that come from a plug flush may get merged by block layer without consulting with io scheduler. In case of CFQ, this can cause fairness problems. For instance, if a request gets merged into a low weight cgroup's request, high weight cgroup now will depend on low weight cgroup to get scheduled. If high weigt cgroup needs that io request to complete before submitting more requests, then it will also lose its timeslice. Following script demonstrates the problem. Group g1 has a low weight, g2 and g3 have equal high weights but g2's requests are adjacent to g1's requests so they are subject to merging. Due to these merges, g2 gets poor disk time allocation. cat > cfq-merge-repro.sh << "EOF" #!/bin/bash set -e IO_ROOT=/mnt-cgroup/io mkdir -p $IO_ROOT if ! mount | grep -qw $IO_ROOT; then mount -t cgroup none -oblkio $IO_ROOT fi cd $IO_ROOT for i in g1 g2 g3; do if [ -d $i ]; then rmdir $i fi done mkdir g1 && echo 10 > g1/blkio.weight mkdir g2 && echo 495 > g2/blkio.weight mkdir g3 && echo 495 > g3/blkio.weight RUNTIME=10 (echo $BASHPID > g1/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=0k &> /dev/null)& (echo $BASHPID > g2/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=64k &> /dev/null)& (echo $BASHPID > g3/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=256k &> /dev/null)& sleep $((RUNTIME+1)) for i in g1 g2 g3; do echo ---- $i ---- cat $i/blkio.time done EOF # ./cfq-merge-repro.sh ---- g1 ---- 8:16 162 ---- g2 ---- 8:16 165 ---- g3 ---- 8:16 686 After applying the patch: # ./cfq-merge-repro.sh ---- g1 ---- 8:16 90 ---- g2 ---- 8:16 445 ---- g3 ---- 8:16 471 Signed-off-by: NTahsin Erdogan <tahsin@google.com> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

Martin reported that his test system would not boot with current git, it oopsed with this: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff88046c6c9e80 IP: [<ffffffff812971e0>] blk_queue_start_tag+0x90/0x150 PGD 1ddf067 PUD 1de2067 PMD 47fc7d067 PTE 800000046c6c9060 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: sd_mod lpfc(+) scsi_transport_fc scsi_tgt oracleasm rpcsec_gss_krb5 ipv6 igb dca i2c_algo_bit i2c_core hwmon CPU: 3 PID: 87 Comm: kworker/u17:1 Not tainted 3.14.0+ #246 Hardware name: Supermicro X9DRX+-F/X9DRX+-F, BIOS 3.00 07/09/2013 Workqueue: events_unbound async_run_entry_fn task: ffff8802743c2150 ti: ffff880273d02000 task.ti: ffff880273d02000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff812971e0>] [<ffffffff812971e0>] blk_queue_start_tag+0x90/0x150 RSP: 0018:ffff880273d03a58 EFLAGS: 00010092 RAX: ffff88046c6c9e78 RBX: ffff880077208e78 RCX: 00000000fffc8da6 RDX: 00000000fffc186d RSI: 0000000000000009 RDI: 00000000fffc8d9d RBP: ffff880273d03a88 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: ffff8800021c2410 R10: 0000000000000005 R11: 0000000000015b30 R12: ffff88046c5bb8a0 R13: ffff88046c5c0890 R14: 000000000000001e R15: 000000000000001e FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880277b00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: ffff88046c6c9e80 CR3: 00000000018f6000 CR4: 00000000000407e0 Stack: ffff880273d03a98 ffff880474b18800 0000000000000000 ffff880474157000 ffff88046c5c0890 ffff880077208e78 ffff880273d03ae8 ffffffff813b9e62 ffff880200000010 ffff880474b18968 ffff880474b18848 ffff88046c5c0cd8 Call Trace: [<ffffffff813b9e62>] scsi_request_fn+0xf2/0x510 [<ffffffff81293167>] __blk_run_queue+0x37/0x50 [<ffffffff8129ac43>] blk_execute_rq_nowait+0xb3/0x130 [<ffffffff8129ad24>] blk_execute_rq+0x64/0xf0 [<ffffffff8108d2b0>] ? bit_waitqueue+0xd0/0xd0 [<ffffffff813bba35>] scsi_execute+0xe5/0x180 [<ffffffff813bbe4a>] scsi_execute_req_flags+0x9a/0x110 [<ffffffffa01b1304>] sd_spinup_disk+0x94/0x460 [sd_mod] [<ffffffff81160000>] ? __unmap_hugepage_range+0x200/0x2f0 [<ffffffffa01b2b9a>] sd_revalidate_disk+0xaa/0x3f0 [sd_mod] [<ffffffffa01b2fb8>] sd_probe_async+0xd8/0x200 [sd_mod] [<ffffffff8107703f>] async_run_entry_fn+0x3f/0x140 [<ffffffff8106a1c5>] process_one_work+0x175/0x410 [<ffffffff8106b373>] worker_thread+0x123/0x400 [<ffffffff8106b250>] ? manage_workers+0x160/0x160 [<ffffffff8107104e>] kthread+0xce/0xf0 [<ffffffff81070f80>] ? kthread_freezable_should_stop+0x70/0x70 [<ffffffff815f0bac>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff81070f80>] ? kthread_freezable_should_stop+0x70/0x70 Code: 48 0f ab 11 72 db 48 81 4b 40 00 00 10 00 89 83 08 01 00 00 48 89 df 49 8b 04 24 48 89 1c d0 e8 f7 a8 ff ff 49 8b 85 28 05 00 00 <48> 89 58 08 48 89 03 49 8d 85 28 05 00 00 48 89 43 08 49 89 9d RIP [<ffffffff812971e0>] blk_queue_start_tag+0x90/0x150 RSP <ffff880273d03a58> CR2: ffff88046c6c9e80 Martin bisected and found this to be the problem patch; commit 6d113398 Author: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Date: Mon Feb 24 16:39:54 2014 +0100 block: Stop abusing rq->csd.list in blk-softirq and the problem was immediately apparent. The patch states that it is safe to reuse queuelist at completion time, since it is no longer used. However, that is not true if a device is using block enabled tagging. If that is the case, then the queuelist is reused to keep track of busy tags. If a device also ended up using softirq completions, we'd reuse ->queuelist for the IPI handling while block tagging was still using it. Boom. Fix this by adding a new ipi_list list head, and share the memory used with the request hash table. The hash table is never used after the request is moved to the dispatch list, which happens long before any potential completion of the request. Add a new request bit for this, so we don't have cases that check rq->hash while it could potentially have been reused for the IPI completion. Reported-by: NMartin K.
