      blkcg: move statistics update code to policies · 629ed0b1

      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

      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.

      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.

      blkcg: let blkcg core manage per-queue blkg list and counter · 03aa264a
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      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.

      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().

      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.

      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

        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
           blkg_lookup_create() to allow creating root group on a bypassed
           queue during elevator switch.

      blkcg: use the usual get blkg path for root blkio_group · f51b802c
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      For root blkg, blk_throtl_init() was using throtl_alloc_tg()
      explicitly and cfq_init_queue() was manually initializing embedded
      cfqd->root_group, adding unnecessarily different code paths to blkg
      handling.
      
      Make both use the usual blkio_group get functions - throtl_get_tg()
      and cfq_get_cfqg() - for the root blkio_group too.  Note that
      blk_throtl_init() callsite is pushed downwards in
      blk_alloc_queue_node() so that @q is sufficiently initialized for
      throtl_get_tg().
      
      This simplifies root blkg handling noticeably for cfq and will allow
      further modularization of blkcg API.
      
      -v2: Vivek pointed out that using cfq_get_cfqg() won't work if
           CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED is disabled.  Fix it by factoring out
           initialization of base part of cfqg into cfq_init_cfqg_base() and
           alloc/init/free explicitly if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.

      blkcg: shoot down blkio_groups on elevator switch · 72e06c25
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      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
        individual policies with request_queues.
      
      * 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
      
      -v2: Vivek pointed out that group list is not guaranteed to be empty
           on return from clear function if it raced cgroup removal and
           lost.  Fix it by waiting a bit and retrying.  This kludge will
           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.
      
           Also, Nest queue_lock inside blkio_list_lock not the other way
           around to avoid introduce possible deadlock via blkcg lock.

      block: fix request_queue lifetime handling by making blk_queue_cleanup() properly shutdown · c9a929dd
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      request_queue is refcounted but actually depdends on lifetime
      management from the queue owner - on blk_cleanup_queue(), block layer
      expects that there's no request passing through request_queue and no
      new one will.
      
      This is fundamentally broken.  The queue owner (e.g. SCSI layer)
      doesn't have a way to know whether there are other active users before
      calling blk_cleanup_queue() and other users (e.g. bsg) don't have any
      guarantee that the queue is and would stay valid while it's holding a
      reference.
      
      With delay added in blk_queue_bio() before queue_lock is grabbed, the
      following oops can be easily triggered when a device is removed with
      in-flight IOs.

      This happens because blk_queue_cleanup() destroys the queue and
      elevator whether IOs are in progress or not and DEAD tests are
      sprinkled in the request processing path without proper
      synchronization.
      
      Similar problem exists for blk-throtl.  On queue cleanup, blk-throtl
      is shutdown whether it has requests in it or not.  Depending on
      timing, it either oopses or throttled bios are lost putting tasks
      which are waiting for bio completion into eternal D state.
      
      The way it should work is having the usual clear distinction between
      shutdown and release.  Shutdown drains all currently pending requests,
      marks the queue dead, and performs partial teardown of the now
      unnecessary part of the queue.  Even after shutdown is complete,
      reference holders are still allowed to issue requests to the queue
      although they will be immmediately failed.  The rest of teardown
      happens on release.
      
      This patch makes the following changes to make blk_queue_cleanup()
      behave as proper shutdown.
      
      * QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD is now set while holding both q->exit_mutex and
        queue_lock.
      
      * Unsynchronized DEAD check in generic_make_request_checks() removed.
        This couldn't make any meaningful difference as the queue could die
        after the check.
      
      * blk_drain_queue() updated such that it can drain all requests and is
        now called during cleanup.
      
      * blk_throtl updated such that it checks DEAD on grabbing queue_lock,
        drains all throttled bios during cleanup and free td when queue is
        released.

      block: reorganize throtl_get_tg() and blk_throtl_bio() · bc16a4f9
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blk_throtl_bio() and throtl_get_tg() have rather unusual interface.
      
      * throtl_get_tg() returns pointer to a valid tg or ERR_PTR(-ENODEV),
        and drops queue_lock in the latter case.  Different locking context
        depending on return value is error-prone and DEAD state is scheduled
        to be protected by queue_lock anyway.  Move DEAD check inside
        queue_lock and return valid tg or NULL.
      
      * blk_throtl_bio() indicates return status both with its return value
        and in/out param **@bio.  The former is used to indicate whether
        queue is found to be dead during throtl processing.  The latter
        whether the bio is throttled.
      
        There's no point in returning DEAD check result from
        blk_throtl_bio().  The queue can die after blk_throtl_bio() is
        finished but before make_request_fn() grabs queue lock.
      
        Make it take *@bio instead and return boolean result indicating
        whether the request is throttled or not.

      block: drop unnecessary blk_get/put_queue() in scsi_cmd_ioctl() and blk_get_tg() · 315fceee
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blk_get/put_queue() in scsi_cmd_ioctl() and throtl_get_tg() are
      completely bogus.  The caller must have a reference to the queue on
      entry and taking an extra reference doesn't change anything.
      
      For scsi_cmd_ioctl(), the only effect is that it ends up checking
      QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD on entry; however, this is bogus as queue can die
      right after blk_get_queue().  Dead queue should be and is handled in
      request issue path (it's somewhat broken now but that's a separate
      problem and doesn't affect this one much).
      
      throtl_get_tg() incorrectly assumes that q is rcu freed.  Also, it
      doesn't check return value of blk_get_queue().  If the queue is
      already dead, it ends up doing an extra put.
      
      Drop them.
