      由 Alan D. Brunelle 提交于 
      Updated 'nomerges' tunable to accept a value of '2' - indicating that _no_
merges at all are to be attempted (not even the simple one-hit cache).

The following table illustrates the additional benefit - 5 minute runs of
a random I/O load were applied to a dozen devices on a 16-way x86_64 system.

      block: Allow devices to indicate whether discarded blocks are zeroed · 98262f27
      由 Martin K. Petersen 提交于 
      The discard ioctl is used by mkfs utilities to clear a block device
prior to putting metadata down.  However, not all devices return zeroed
blocks after a discard.  Some drives return stale data, potentially
containing old superblocks.  It is therefore important to know whether
discarded blocks are properly zeroed.

Both ATA and SCSI drives have configuration bits that indicate whether
zeroes are returned after a discard operation.  Implement a block level
interface that allows this information to be bubbled up the stack and
queried via a new block device ioctl.

      block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages · 2d4dc890
      由 Ilya Loginov 提交于 
      Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.

The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.

See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

      block: allow large discard requests · 67efc925
      由 Christoph Hellwig 提交于 
      Currently we set the bio size to the byte equivalent of the blocks to
be trimmed when submitting the initial DISCARD ioctl.  That means it
is subject to the max_hw_sectors limitation of the HBA which is
much lower than the size of a DISCARD request we can support.
Add a separate max_discard_sectors tunable to limit the size for discard
requests.

We limit the max discard request size in bytes to 32bit as that is the
limit for bio->bi_size.  This could be much larger if we had a way to pass
that information through the block layer.

      block: use normal I/O path for discard requests · c15227de
      由 Christoph Hellwig 提交于 
      prepare_discard_fn() was being called in a place where memory allocation
was effectively impossible.  This makes it inappropriate for all but
the most trivial translations of Linux's DISCARD operation to the block
command set.  Additionally adding a payload there makes the ownership
of the bio backing unclear as it's now allocated by the device driver
and not the submitter as usual.

It is replaced with QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD which is used to indicate whether
the queue supports discard operations or not.  blkdev_issue_discard now
allocates a one-page, sector-length payload which is the right thing
for the common ATA and SCSI implementations.

The mtd implementation of prepare_discard_fn() is replaced with simply
checking for the request being a discard.

Largely based on a previous patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx>
which did the prepare_discard_fn but not the different payload allocation
yet.

      由 Jens Axboe 提交于 
      Instead of just checking whether this device uses block layer
tagging, we can improve the detection by looking at the maximum
queue depth it has reached. If that crosses 4, then deem it a
queuing device.

This is important on high IOPS devices, since plugging hurts
the performance there (it can be as much as 10-15% of the sys
time).

      block: implement mixed merge of different failfast requests · 80a761fd
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Failfast has characteristics from other attributes.  When issuing,
executing and successuflly completing requests, failfast doesn't make
any difference.  It only affects how a request is handled on failure.
Allowing requests with different failfast settings to be merged cause
normal IOs to fail prematurely while not allowing has performance
penalties as failfast is used for read aheads which are likely to be
located near in-flight or to-be-issued normal IOs.

This patch introduces the concept of 'mixed merge'.  A request is a
mixed merge if it is merge of segments which require different
handling on failure.  Currently the only mixable attributes are
failfast ones (or lack thereof).

When a bio with different failfast settings is added to an existing
request or requests of different failfast settings are merged, the
merged request is marked mixed.  Each bio carries failfast settings
and the request always tracks failfast state of the first bio.  When
the request fails, blk_rq_err_bytes() can be used to determine how
many bytes can be safely failed without crossing into an area which
requires further retrials.

This allows request merging regardless of failfast settings while
keeping the failure handling correct.

This patch only implements mixed merge but doesn't enable it.  The
next one will update SCSI to make use of mixed merge.

      block: use the same failfast bits for bio and request · a82afdfc
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      bio and request use the same set of failfast bits.  This patch makes
the following changes to simplify things.

* enumify BIO_RW* bits and reorder bits such that BIOS_RW_FAILFAST_*
  bits coincide with __REQ_FAILFAST_* bits.

* The above pushes BIO_RW_AHEAD out of sync with __REQ_FAILFAST_DEV
  but the matching is useless anyway.  init_request_from_bio() is
  responsible for setting FAILFAST bits on FS requests and non-FS
  requests never use BIO_RW_AHEAD.  Drop the code and comment from
  blk_rq_bio_prep().

* Define REQ_FAILFAST_MASK which is OR of all FAILFAST bits and
  simplify FAILFAST flags handling in init_request_from_bio().

      block: add request clone interface (v2) · b0fd271d
      由 Kiyoshi Ueda 提交于 
      This patch adds the following 2 interfaces for request-stacking drivers:

  - blk_rq_prep_clone(struct request *clone, struct request *orig,
		      struct bio_set *bs, gfp_t gfp_mask,
		      int (*bio_ctr)(struct bio *, struct bio*, void *),
		      void *data)
      * Clones bios in the original request to the clone request
        (bio_ctr is called for each cloned bios.)
      * Copies attributes of the original request to the clone request.
        The actual data parts (e.g. ->cmd, ->buffer, ->sense) are not
        copied.

  - blk_rq_unprep_clone(struct request *clone)
      * Frees cloned bios from the clone request.

Request stacking drivers (e.g. request-based dm) need to make a clone
request for a submitted request and dispatch it to other devices.

To allocate request for the clone, request stacking drivers may not
be able to use blk_get_request() because the allocation may be done
in an irq-disabled context.
So blk_rq_prep_clone() takes a request allocated by the caller
as an argument.

For each clone bio in the clone request, request stacking drivers
should be able to set up their own completion handler.
So blk_rq_prep_clone() takes a callback function which is called
for each clone bio, and a pointer for private data which is passed
to the callback.

NOTE:
blk_rq_prep_clone() doesn't copy any actual data of the original
request.  Pages are shared between original bios and cloned bios.
So caller must not complete the original request before the clone
request.

Together with the consecutive patch implementing ->set_capacity method in
