      blkcg: use CGROUP_WEIGHT_* scale for io.weight on the unified hierarchy · 69d7fde5
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      cgroup is trying to make interface consistent across different
      controllers.  For weight based resource control, the knob should have
      the range [1, 10000] and default to 100.  This patch updates
      cfq-iosched so that the weight range conforms.  The internal
      calculations have enough range and the widening of the weight range
      shouldn't cause any problem.
      
      * blkcg_policy->cpd_bind_fn() is added.  If present, this is invoked
        when blkcg is attached to a hierarchy.
      
      * cfq_cpd_init() is updated to use the new default value on the
        unified hierarchy.
      
      * cfq_cpd_bind() callback is implemented to clear per-blkg configs and
        apply the default config matching the hierarchy type.
      
      * cfqd->root_group->[leaf_]weight initialization in cfq_init_queue()
        is moved into !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED block.  cfq_cpd_bind() is
        now responsible for initializing the initial weights when blkcg is
        enabled.

      blkcg: implement interface for the unified hierarchy · 2ee867dc
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg interface grew to be the biggest of all controllers and
      unfortunately most inconsistent too.  The interface files are
      inconsistent with a number of cloes duplicates.  Some files have
      recursive variants while others don't.  There's distinction between
      normal and leaf weights which isn't intuitive and there are a lot of
      stat knobs which don't make much sense outside of debugging and expose
      too much implementation details to userland.
      
      In the unified hierarchy, everything is always hierarchical and
      internal nodes can't have tasks rendering the two structural issues
      twisting the current interface.  The interface has to be updated in a
      significant anyway and this is a good chance to revamp it as a whole.
      This patch implements blkcg interface for the unified hierarchy.
      
      * (from a previous patch) blkcg is identified by "io" instead of
        "blkio" on the unified hierarchy.  Given that the whole interface is
        updated anyway, the rename shouldn't carry noticeable conversion
        overhead.
      
      * The original interface consisted of 27 files is replaced with the
        following three files.
      
        blkio.stat	: per-blkcg stats
        blkio.weight	: per-cgroup and per-cgroup-queue weight settings
        blkio.max	: per-cgroup-queue bps and iops max limits
      
      Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt updated accordingly.
      
      v2: blkcg_policy->dfl_cftypes wasn't removed on
          blkcg_policy_unregister() corrupting the cftypes list.  Fixed.

      blkcg: move body parsing from blkg_conf_prep() to its callers · 36aa9e5f
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, blkg_conf_prep() expects input to be of the following form
      
       MAJ:MIN NUM
      
      and reads the NUM part into blkg_conf_ctx->v.  This is quite
      restrictive and gets in the way in implementing blkcg interface for
      the unified hierarchy.  This patch updates blkg_conf_prep() so that it
      expects
      
       MAJ:MIN BODY_STR
      
      where BODY_STR is an arbitrary string.  blkg_conf_ctx->v is replaced
      with ->body which is a char pointer pointing to the start of BODY_STR.
      Parsing of the body is moved to blkg_conf_prep()'s callers.
      
      To allow using, for example, strsep() on blkg_conf_ctx->val, it is a
      non-const pointer and to accommodate that const is dropped from @input
      too.
      
      This doesn't cause any behavior changes.

      blkcg: rename subsystem name from blkio to io · c165b3e3
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkio interface has become messy over time and is currently the
      largest.  In addition to the inconsistent naming scheme, it has
      multiple stat files which report more or less the same thing, a number
      of debug stat files which expose internal details which shouldn't have
      been part of the public interface in the first place, recursive and
      non-recursive stats and leaf and non-leaf knobs.
      
      Both recursive vs. non-recursive and leaf vs. non-leaf distinctions
      don't make any sense on the unified hierarchy as only leaf cgroups can
      contain processes.  cgroups is going through a major interface
      revision with the unified hierarchy involving significant fundamental
      usage changes and given that a significant portion of the interface
      doesn't make sense anymore, it's a good time to reorganize the
      interface.
      
      As the first step, this patch renames the external visible subsystem
      name from "blkio" to "io".  This is more concise, matches the other
      two major subsystem names, "cpu" and "memory", and better suited as
      blkcg will be involved in anything writeback related too whether an
      actual block device is involved or not.
      
      As the subsystem legacy_name is set to "blkio", the only userland
      visible change outside the unified hierarchy is that blkcg is reported
      as "io" instead of "blkio" in the subsystem initialized message during
      boot.  On the unified hierarchy, blkcg now appears as "io".

      blkcg: reduce stack usage of blkg_rwstat_recursive_sum() · 3a7faead
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      The recent percpu conversion of blkg_rwstat triggered the following

      blkcg: move io_service_bytes and io_serviced stats into blkcg_gq · 77ea7338
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, both cfq-iosched and blk-throttle keep track of
      io_service_bytes and io_serviced stats.  While keeping track of them
      separately may be useful during development, it doesn't make much
      sense otherwise.  Also, blk-throttle was counting bio's as IOs while
      cfq-iosched request's, which is more confusing than informative.
      
      This patch adds ->stat_bytes and ->stat_ios to blkg (blkcg_gq),
      removes the counterparts from cfq-iosched and blk-throttle and let
      them print from the common blkg counters.  The common counters are
      incremented during bio issue in blkcg_bio_issue_check().
      
      The outputs are still filtered by whether the policy has
      blkg_policy_data on a given blkg, so cfq's output won't show up if it
      has never been used for a given blkg.  The only times when the outputs
      would differ significantly are when policies are attached on the fly
      or elevators are switched back and forth.  Those are quite exceptional
      operations and I don't think they warrant keeping separate counters.
      
      v3: Update blkio-controller.txt accordingly.

      blkcg_[rw]stat are used as stat counters for blkcg policies.  It isn't

        percpu_counter.  This makes syncp unnecessary as remote accesses are
        handled by percpu_counter itself.

      blkcg: add blkg_[rw]stat->aux_cnt and replace cfq_group->dead_stats with it · e6269c44
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      cgroup stats are local to each cgroup and doesn't propagate to
      ancestors by default.  When recursive stats are necessary, the sum is
      calculated over all the descendants.  This initially was for backward
      compatibility to support both group-local and recursive stats but this
      mode of operation makes general sense as stat update is much hotter
      thafn reporting those stats.
      
      This however ends up losing recursive stats when a child is removed.
      To work around this, cfq-iosched adds its stats to its parent
      cfq_group->dead_stats which is summed up together when calculating
      recursive stats.
      
      It's planned that the core stats will be moved to blkcg_gq, so we want
      to move the mechanism for keeping track of the stats of dead children
      from cfq to blkcg core.  This patch adds blkg_[rw]stat->aux_cnt which
      are atomic64_t's keeping track of auxiliary counts which are excluded
      when reading local counts but included for recursive.
      
      blkg_[rw]stat_merge() which were used by cfq to implement dead_stats
      are replaced by blkg_[rw]stat_add_aux(), and cfq now forwards stats of
      a dead cgroup to the aux counts of parent->stats instead of separate
      ->dead_stats.
      
      This will also help making blkg_[rw]stats per-cpu.

      blkcg: consolidate blkg creation in blkcg_bio_issue_check() · ae118896
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkg (blkcg_gq) currently is created by blkcg policies invoking
      blkg_lookup_create() which ends up repeating about the same code in
      different policies.  Theoretically, this can avoid the overhead of
      looking and/or creating blkg's if blkcg is enabled but no policy is in
      use; however, the cost of blkg lookup / creation is very low
      especially if only the root blkcg is in use which is highly likely if
      no blkcg policy is in active use - it boils down to a single very
      predictable conditional and surrounding RCU protection.
      
      This patch consolidates blkg creation to a new function
      blkcg_bio_issue_check() which is called during bio issue from
      generic_make_request_checks().  blkcg_bio_issue_check() is now the
      only function which tries to create missing blkg's.  The subsequent
      policy and request_list operations just perform blkg_lookup() and if
      missing falls back to the root.
      
      * blk_get_rl() no longer tries to create blkg.  It uses blkg_lookup()
        instead of blkg_lookup_create().
      
      * blk_throtl_bio() is now called from blkcg_bio_issue_check() with rcu
        read locked and blkg already looked up.  Both throtl_lookup_tg() and
        throtl_lookup_create_tg() are dropped.
      
      * cfq is similarly updated.  cfq_lookup_create_cfqg() is replaced with
        cfq_lookup_cfqg()which uses blkg_lookup().
      
      This consolidates blkg handling and avoids unnecessary blkg creation
      retries under memory pressure.  In addition, this provides a common
      bio entry point into blkcg where things like common accounting can be
      performed.

      blkcg: replace blkcg_policy->cpd_size with ->cpd_alloc/free_fn() methods · e4a9bde9
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Each active policy has a cpd (blkcg_policy_data) on each blkcg.  The
      cpd's were allocated by blkcg core and each policy could request to
      allocate extra space at the end by setting blkcg_policy->cpd_size
      larger than the size of cpd.
      
      This is a bit unusual but blkg (blkcg_gq) policy data used to be
      handled this way too so it made sense to be consistent; however, blkg
      policy data switched to alloc/free callbacks.
      
      This patch makes similar changes to cpd handling.
      blkcg_policy->cpd_alloc/free_fn() are added to replace ->cpd_size.  As
      cpd allocation is now done from policy side, it can simply allocate a
      larger area which embeds cpd at the beginning.

      initializations, this patch makes ->cpd_init_fn() optional.

      The newly added ->pd_alloc_fn() and ->pd_free_fn() deal with pd

      blkg doesn't make sense for ->pd_alloc_fn() and after allocation pd
      can always be mapped to blkg and given that these are policy-specific
      methods, it makes sense to converge on pd.
      
      This patch makes all methods deal with pd instead of blkg.  Most
      conversions are trivial.  In blk-cgroup.c, a couple method invocation
      sites now test whether pd exists instead of policy state for
      consistency.  This shouldn't cause any behavioral differences.

      blkcg: replace blkcg_policy->pd_size with ->pd_alloc/free_fn() methods · 001bea73
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      A blkg (blkcg_gq) represents the relationship between a cgroup and
      request_queue.  Each active policy has a pd (blkg_policy_data) on each
      blkg.  The pd's were allocated by blkcg core and each policy could
      request to allocate extra space at the end by setting
      blkcg_policy->pd_size larger than the size of pd.
      
      This is a bit unusual but was done this way mostly to simplify error
      handling and all the existing use cases could be handled this way;
      however, this is becoming too restrictive now that percpu memory can
      be allocated without blocking.
      
      This introduces two new mandatory blkcg_policy methods - pd_alloc_fn()
      and pd_free_fn() - which are used to allocate and release pd for a
      given policy.  As pd allocation is now done from policy side, it can
      simply allocate a larger area which embeds pd at the beginning.  This
      change makes ->pd_size pointless.  Removed.

      blkcg: restructure blkg_policy_data allocation in blkcg_activate_policy() · 4c55f4f9
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      When a policy gets activated, it needs to allocate and install its
      policy data on all existing blkg's (blkcg_gq's).  Because blkg
      iteration is protected by a spinlock, it currently counts the total
      number of blkg's in the system, allocates the matching number of
      policy data on a list and installs them during a single iteration.
      
      This can be simplified by using speculative GFP_NOWAIT allocations
      while iterating and falling back to a preallocated policy data on
      failure.  If the preallocated one has already been consumed, it
      releases the lock, preallocate with GFP_KERNEL and then restarts the
      iteration.  This can be a bit more expensive than before but policy
      activation is a very cold path and shouldn't matter.

      blkcg, cfq-iosched: use GFP_NOWAIT instead of GFP_ATOMIC for non-critical allocations · d93a11f1
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg performs several allocations to track IOs per cgroup and enforce
      resource control.  Most of these allocations are performed lazily on
      demand in the IO path and thus can't involve reclaim path.  Currently,
      these allocations use GFP_ATOMIC; however, blkcg can gracefully deal
      with occassional failures of these allocations by punting IOs to the
      root cgroup and there's no reason to reach into the emergency reserve.

      blkcg: fix blkcg_policy_data allocation bug · 06b285bd
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      e48453c3 ("block, cgroup: implement policy-specific per-blkcg
      data") updated per-blkcg policy data to be dynamically allocated.
      When a policy is registered, its policy data aren't created.  Instead,
      when the policy is activated on a queue, the policy data are allocated
      if there are blkg's (blkcg_gq's) which are attached to a given blkcg.
      This is buggy.  Consider the following scenario.
      
      1. A blkcg is created.  No blkg's attached yet.
      
      2. The policy is registered.  No policy data is allocated.
      
      3. The policy is activated on a queue.  As the above blkcg doesn't
         have any blkg's, it won't allocate the matching blkcg_policy_data.
      
      4. An IO is issued from the blkcg and blkg is created and the blkcg
         still doesn't have the matching policy data allocated.
      
      With cfq-iosched, this leads to an oops.
      
      It also doesn't free policy data on policy unregistration assuming
      that freeing of all policy data on blkcg destruction should take care
      of it; however, this also is incorrect.
      
      1. A blkcg has policy data.
      
      2. The policy gets unregistered but the policy data remains.
      
      3. Another policy gets registered on the same slot.
      
      4. Later, the new policy tries to allocate policy data on the previous
         blkcg but the slot is already occupied and gets skipped.  The
         policy ends up operating on the policy data of the previous policy.
      
      There's no reason to manage blkcg_policy_data lazily.  The reason we
      do lazy allocation of blkg's is that the number of all possible blkg's
      is the product of cgroups and block devices which can reach a
      surprising level.  blkcg_policy_data is contrained by the number of
      cgroups and shouldn't be a problem.
      
      This patch makes blkcg_policy_data to be allocated for all existing
      blkcg's on policy registration and freed on unregistration and removes
      blkcg_policy_data handling from policy [de]activation paths.  This
      makes that blkcg_policy_data are created and removed with the policy
      they belong to and fixes the above described problems.

      blkcg: allow blkcg_pol_mutex to be grabbed from cgroup [file] methods · 838f13bf
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg_pol_mutex primarily protects the blkcg_policy array.  It also
      protects cgroup file type [un]registration during policy addition /
      removal.  This puts blkcg_pol_mutex outside cgroup internal
      synchronization and in turn makes it impossible to grab from blkcg's
      cgroup methods as that leads to cyclic dependency.
      
      Another problematic dependency arising from this is through cgroup
      interface file deactivation.  Removing a cftype requires removing all
      files of the type which in turn involves draining all on-going
      invocations of the file methods.  This means that an interface file
      implementation can't grab blkcg_pol_mutex as draining can lead to AA
      deadlock.
      
      blkcg_reset_stats() is already in this situation.  It currently
      trylocks blkcg_pol_mutex and then unwinds and retries the whole
      operation on failure, which is cumbersome at best.  It has a lengthy
      comment explaining how cgroup internal synchronization is involved and
      expected to be updated but as explained above this doesn't need cgroup
      internal locking to deadlock.  It's a self-contained AA deadlock.
      
      The described circular dependencies can be easily broken by moving
      cftype [un]registration out of blkcg_pol_mutex and protect them with
      an outer mutex.  This patch introduces blkcg_pol_register_mutex which
      wraps entire policy [un]registration including cftype operations and
      shrinks blkcg_pol_mutex critical section.  This also makes the trylock
      dancing in blkcg_reset_stats() unnecessary.  Removed.
      
      This patch is necessary for the following blkcg_policy_data allocation
      bug fixes.

      block, cgroup: implement policy-specific per-blkcg data · e48453c3
      Arianna Avanzini 提交于
      The block IO (blkio) controller enables the block layer to provide service
      guarantees in a hierarchical fashion. Specifically, service guarantees
      are provided by registered request-accounting policies. As of now, a
      proportional-share and a throttling policy are available. They are
      implemented, respectively, by the CFQ I/O scheduler and the blk-throttle
      subsystem. Unfortunately, as for adding new policies, the current
      implementation of the block IO controller is only halfway ready to allow
      new policies to be plugged in. This commit provides a solution to make
      the block IO controller fully ready to handle new policies.
      In what follows, we first describe briefly the current state, and then
      list the changes made by this commit.
      
      The throttling policy does not need any per-cgroup information to perform
      its task. In contrast, the proportional share policy uses, for each cgroup,
      both the weight assigned by the user to the cgroup, and a set of dynamically-
      computed weights, one for each device.
      
      The first, user-defined weight is stored in the blkcg data structure: the
      block IO controller allocates a private blkcg data structure for each
      cgroup in the blkio cgroups hierarchy (regardless of which policy is active).
      In other words, the block IO controller internally mirrors the blkio cgroups
      with private blkcg data structures.
      
      On the other hand, for each cgroup and device, the corresponding dynamically-
      computed weight is maintained in the following, different way. For each device,
      the block IO controller keeps a private blkcg_gq structure for each cgroup in
      blkio. In other words, block IO also keeps one private mirror copy of the blkio
      cgroups hierarchy for each device, made of blkcg_gq structures.
      Each blkcg_gq structure keeps per-policy information in a generic array of
      dynamically-allocated 'dedicated' data structures, one for each registered
      policy (so currently the array contains two elements). To be inserted into the
      generic array, each dedicated data structure embeds a generic blkg_policy_data
      structure. Consider now the array contained in the blkcg_gq structure
      corresponding to a given pair of cgroup and device: one of the elements
      of the array contains the dedicated data structure for the proportional-share
      policy, and this dedicated data structure contains the dynamically-computed
      weight for that pair of cgroup and device.
      
      The generic strategy adopted for storing per-policy data in blkcg_gq structures
      is already capable of handling new policies, whereas the one adopted with blkcg
      structures is not, because per-policy data are hard-coded in the blkcg
      structures themselves (currently only data related to the proportional-
      share policy).
      
      This commit addresses the above issues through the following changes:
      . It generalizes blkcg structures so that per-policy data are stored in the same
        way as in blkcg_gq structures.
        Specifically, it lets also the blkcg structure store per-policy data in a
        generic array of dynamically-allocated dedicated data structures. We will
        refer to these data structures as blkcg dedicated data structures, to
        distinguish them from the dedicated data structures inserted in the generic
        arrays kept by blkcg_gq structures.
        To allow blkcg dedicated data structures to be inserted in the generic array
        inside a blkcg structure, this commit also introduces a new blkcg_policy_data
        structure, which is the equivalent of blkg_policy_data for blkcg dedicated
        data structures.
      . It adds to the blkcg_policy structure, i.e., to the descriptor of a policy, a
        cpd_size field and a cpd_init field, to be initialized by the policy with,
        respectively, the size of the blkcg dedicated data structures, and the
        address of a constructor function for blkcg dedicated data structures.
      . It moves the CFQ-specific fields embedded in the blkcg data structure (i.e.,
        the fields related to the proportional-share policy), into a new blkcg
        dedicated data structure called cfq_group_data.

      writeback: make backing_dev_info host cgroup-specific bdi_writebacks · 52ebea74
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi
      (backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb
      (bdi_writeback).  This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host
      multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks).
      
      On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg.  This allows
      using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every
      memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a
      dedicated wb to each memcg.  This means that there may be multiple
      wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg.  As congested state is per
      blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested
      state.  This is achieved by tracking congested state via
      bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg.
      
      bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup.
      cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or
      looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page
      being dirtied or current task.  Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree
      by its memcg id.  Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be
      retrieved using inode_to_wb().
      
      Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all
      pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb.
      
      v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside
          mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL.
          Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed.  Both
          detected by the kbuild bot.

          rather than blkcg.

      blkcg: always create the blkcg_gq for the root blkcg · ec13b1d6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, blkcg does a minor optimization where the root blkcg is
      created when the first blkcg policy is activated on a queue and
      destroyed on the deactivation of the last.  On systems where blkcg is
      configured but not used, this saves one blkcg_gq struct per queue.  On
      systems where blkcg is actually used, there's no difference.  The only
      case where this can lead to any meaninful, albeit still minute, save
      in memory consumption is when all blkcg policies are deactivated after
      being widely used in the system, which is a hihgly unlikely scenario.
      
      The conditional existence of root blkcg_gq has already created several
      bugs in blkcg and became an issue once again for the new per-cgroup
      wb_congested mechanism for cgroup writeback support leading to a NULL
      dereference when no blkcg policy is active.  This is really not worth
      bothering with.  This patch makes blkcg always allocate and link the
      root blkcg_gq and release it only on queue destruction.

      blkcg: remove blkcg->id · f4da8072
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkcg->id is a unique id given to each blkcg; however, the
      cgroup_subsys_state which each blkcg embeds already has ->serial_nr
      which can be used for the same purpose.  Drop blkcg->id and replace
      its uses with blkcg->css.serial_nr.  Rename cfq_cgroup->blkcg_id to
      ->blkcg_serial_nr and @id in check_blkcg_changed() to @serial_nr for
      consistency.

      blkcg: don't call into policy draining if root_blkg is already gone · 2a1b4cf2
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      While a queue is being destroyed, all the blkgs are destroyed and its
      ->root_blkg pointer is set to NULL.  If someone else starts to drain
      while the queue is in this state, the following oops happens.

      776687bc ("block, blk-mq: draining can't be skipped even if
      bypass_depth was non-zero") made it easier to trigger this bug by
      making blk_queue_bypass_start() drain even when it loses the first
      bypass test to blk_cleanup_queue(); however, the bug has always been
      there even before the commit as blk_queue_bypass_start() could race
      against queue destruction, win the initial bypass test but perform the
      actual draining after blk_cleanup_queue() already destroyed all blkgs.
      
      Fix it by skippping calling into policy draining if all the blkgs are
      already gone.

      cgroup: replace cgroup_add_cftypes() with cgroup_add_legacy_cftypes() · 2cf669a5
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, cftypes added by cgroup_add_cftypes() are used for both the
      unified default hierarchy and legacy ones and subsystems can mark each
      file with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE if it has to
      appear only on one of them.  This is quite hairy and error-prone.
      Also, we may end up exposing interface files to the default hierarchy
      without thinking it through.
      
      cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype addition functions and
      apply each only on the hierarchies of the matching type.  This will
      allow organizing cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems
      to scrutinize the interface which is being exposed in the new default
      hierarchy.
      
      In preparation, this patch adds cgroup_add_legacy_cftypes() which
      currently is a simple wrapper around cgroup_add_cftypes() and replaces
      all cgroup_add_cftypes() usages with it.
      
      While at it, this patch drops a completely spurious return from
      __hugetlb_cgroup_file_init().
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any functional differences.
