Column "time_in_queue" in diskstats is supposed to show total waiting time of all requests. I.e. value should be equal to the sum of times from other columns. But this is not true, because column "time_in_queue" is counted separately in jiffies rather than in nanoseconds as other times. This patch removes redundant counter for "time_in_queue" and shows total time of read, write, discard and flush requests.

Requests that triggers flushing volatile writeback cache to disk (barriers) have significant effect to overall performance. Block layer has sophisticated engine for combining several flush requests into one. But there is no statistics for actual flushes executed by disk. Requests which trigger flushes usually are barriers - zero-size writes. This patch adds two iostat counters into /sys/class/block/$dev/stat and /proc/diskstats - count of completed flush requests and their total time.

由 Damien Le Moal 提交于
When elevator_init_mq() is called from blk_mq_init_allocated_queue(), the only information known about the device is the number of hardware queues as the block device scan by the device driver is not completed yet for most drivers. The device type and elevator required features are not set yet, preventing to correctly select the default elevator most suitable for the device. This currently affects all multi-queue zoned block devices which default to the "none" elevator instead of the required "mq-deadline" elevator. These drives currently include host-managed SMR disks connected to a smartpqi HBA and null_blk block devices with zoned mode enabled. Upcoming NVMe Zoned Namespace devices will also be affected. Fix this by adding the boolean elevator_init argument to blk_mq_init_allocated_queue() to control the execution of elevator_init_mq(). Two cases exist: 1) elevator_init = false is used for calls to blk_mq_init_allocated_queue() within blk_mq_init_queue(). In this case, a call to elevator_init_mq() is added to __device_add_disk(), resulting in the delayed initialization of the queue elevator after the device driver finished probing the device information. This effectively allows elevator_init_mq() access to more information about the device. 2) elevator_init = true preserves the current behavior of initializing the elevator directly from blk_mq_init_allocated_queue(). This case is used for the special request based DM devices where the device gendisk is created before the queue initialization and device information (e.g. queue limits) is already known when the queue initialization is executed. Additionally, to make sure that the elevator initialization is never done while requests are in-flight (there should be none when the device driver calls device_add_disk()), freeze and quiesce the device request queue before calling blk_mq_init_sched() in elevator_init_mq().

Drivers now report to the block layer if they support media change events. If this is not the case, there's no need to allocate the event structure, and all event handling code can effectively be skipped. This simplifies code flow in particular for non-removable sd devices. This effectively reverts commit 75e3f3ee ("block: always allocate genhd->ev if check_events is implemented"). The sysfs files for the events are kept in place even if no events are supported, as user space may rely on them being present. The only difference is that an error code is now returned if the user tries to set poll_msecs.

Currently, an empty disk->events field tells the block layer not to forward media change events to user space. This was done in commit 7c88a168 ("block: don't propagate unlisted DISK_EVENTs to userland") in order to avoid events from "fringe" drivers to be forwarded to user space. By doing so, the block layer lost the information which events were supported by a particular block device, and most importantly, whether or not a given device supports media change events at all. Prepare for not interpreting the "events" field this way in the future any more. This is done by adding an additional field "event_flags" to struct gendisk, and two flag bits that can be set to have the device treated like one that had the "events" field set to a non-zero value before. This applies only to the sd and sr drivers, which are changed to set the new flags. The new flags are DISK_EVENT_FLAG_POLL to enforce polling of the device for synchronous events, and DISK_EVENT_FLAG_UEVENT to tell the blocklayer to generate udev events from kernel events. In order to add the event_flags field to struct gendisk, the events field is converted to an "unsigned short"; it doesn't need to hold values bigger than 2 anyway. This patch doesn't change behavior.

Now when part_round_stats is gone, we can switch to per-cpu in-flight counters. We use the local-atomic type local_t, so that if part_inc_in_flight or part_dec_in_flight is reentrantly called from an interrupt, the value will be correct. The other counters could be corrupted due to reentrant interrupt, but the corruption only results in slight counter skew - the in_flight counter must be exact, so it needs local_t.

We want to convert to per-cpu in_flight counters. The function part_round_stats needs the in_flight counter every jiffy, it would be too costly to sum all the percpu variables every jiffy, so it must be deleted. part_round_stats is used to calculate two counters - time_in_queue and io_ticks. time_in_queue can be calculated without part_round_stats, by adding the duration of the I/O when the I/O ends (the value is almost as exact as the previously calculated value, except that time for in-progress I/Os is not counted). io_ticks can be approximated by increasing the value when I/O is started or ended and the jiffies value has changed. If the I/Os take less than a jiffy, the value is as exact as the previously calculated value. If the I/Os take more than a jiffy, io_ticks can drift behind the previously calculated value.

Klaus Kusche reported that the I/O busy time in /proc/diskstats was not updating properly on 4.18. This is because we started using ktime to track elapsed time, and we convert nanoseconds to jiffies when we update the partition counter. However, this gets rounded down, so any I/Os that take less than a jiffy are not accounted for. Previously in this case, the value of jiffies would sometimes increment while we were doing I/O, so at least some I/Os were accounted for. Let's convert the stats to use nanoseconds internally. We still report milliseconds as before, now more accurately than ever. The value is still truncated to 32 bits for backwards compatibility.

When two blkdev_open() calls for a partition race with device removal and recreation, we can hit BUG_ON(!bd_may_claim(bdev, whole, holder)) in blkdev_open(). The race can happen as follows: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 del_gendisk() bdev_unhash_inode(part1); blkdev_open(part1, O_EXCL) blkdev_open(part1, O_EXCL) bdev = bd_acquire() bdev = bd_acquire() blkdev_get(bdev) bd_start_claiming(bdev) - finds old inode 'whole' bd_prepare_to_claim() -> 0 bdev_unhash_inode(whole); <device removed> <new device under same number created> blkdev_get(bdev); bd_start_claiming(bdev) - finds new inode 'whole' bd_prepare_to_claim() - this also succeeds as we have different 'whole' here... - bad things happen now as we have two exclusive openers of the same bdev The problem here is that block device opens can see various intermediate states while gendisk is shutting down and then being recreated. We fix the problem by introducing new lookup_sem in gendisk that synchronizes gendisk deletion with get_gendisk() and furthermore by making sure that get_gendisk() does not return gendisk that is being (or has been) deleted. This makes sure that once we ever manage to look up newly created bdev inode, we are also guaranteed that following get_gendisk() will either return failure (and we fail open) or it returns gendisk for the new device and following bdget_disk() will return new bdev inode (i.e., blkdev_open() follows the path as if it is completely run after new device is created).

Since I can remember DM has forced the block layer to allow the allocation and initialization of the request_queue to be distinct operations. Reason for this is block/genhd.c:add_disk() has requires that the request_queue (and associated bdi) be tied to the gendisk before add_disk() is called -- because add_disk() also deals with exposing the request_queue via blk_register_queue(). DM's dynamic creation of arbitrary device types (and associated request_queue types) requires the DM device's gendisk be available so that DM table loads can establish a master/slave relationship with subordinate devices that are referenced by loaded DM tables -- using bd_link_disk_holder(). But until these DM tables, and their associated subordinate devices, are known DM cannot know what type of request_queue it needs -- nor what its queue_limits should be. This chicken and egg scenario has created all manner of problems for DM and, at times, the block layer. Summary of changes: - Add device_add_disk_no_queue_reg() and add_disk_no_queue_reg() variant that drivers may use to add a disk without also calling blk_register_queue(). Driver must call blk_register_queue() once its request_queue is fully initialized. - Return early from blk_unregister_queue() if QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED is not set. It won't be set if driver used add_disk_no_queue_reg() but driver encounters an error and must del_gendisk() before calling blk_register_queue(). - Export blk_register_queue(). These changes allow DM to use add_disk_no_queue_reg() to anchor its gendisk as the "master" for master/slave relationships DM must establish with subordinate devices referenced in DM tables that get loaded. Once all "slave" devices for a DM device are known its request_queue can be properly initialized and then advertised via sysfs -- important improvement being that no request_queue resource initialization performed by blk_register_queue() is missed for DM devices anymore.

device_add_disk() will only call bdi_register_owner() if !GENHD_FL_HIDDEN, so it follows that del_gendisk() should only call bdi_unregister() if !GENHD_FL_HIDDEN. Found with code inspection. bdi_unregister() won't do any harm if bdi_register_owner() wasn't used but best to avoid the unnecessary call to bdi_unregister().
