The hardware's provided queue count may change at runtime with resource provisioning. This patch allows a block driver to alter the number of h/w queues available when its resource count changes. The main part is a new blk-mq API to request a new number of h/w queues for a given live tag set. The new API freezes all queues using that set, then adjusts the allocated count prior to remapping these to CPUs. The bulk of the rest just shifts where h/w contexts and all their artifacts are allocated and freed. The number of max h/w contexts is capped to the number of possible cpus since there is no use for more than that. As such, all pre-allocated memory for pointers need to account for the max possible rather than the initial number of queues. A side effect of this is that the blk-mq will proceed successfully as long as it can allocate at least one h/w context. Previously it would fail request queue initialization if less than the requested number was allocated.

Currently we don't allow sync workload of one cgroup to preempt sync workload of any other cgroup. This is because we want to achieve service separation between cgroups. However in cases where cgroup preempting is ancestor of the current cgroup, there is no need of separation and idling introduces unnecessary overhead. This hurts for example the case when workload is isolated within a cgroup but journalling threads are in root cgroup. Simple way to demostrate the issue is using: dbench4 -c /usr/share/dbench4/client.txt -t 10 -D /mnt 1 on ext4 filesystem on plain SATA drive (mounted with barrier=0 to make difference more visible). When all processes are in the root cgroup, reported throughput is 153.132 MB/sec. When dbench process gets its own blkio cgroup, reported throughput drops to 26.1006 MB/sec. Fix the problem by making check in cfq_should_preempt() more benevolent and allow preemption by ancestor cgroup. This improves the throughput reported by dbench4 to 48.9106 MB/sec.

The original idea with preemption of sync noidle queues (introduced in commit 718eee05 "cfq-iosched: fairness for sync no-idle queues") was that we service all sync noidle queues together, we don't idle on any of the queues individually and we idle only if there is no sync noidle queue to be served. This intention also matches the original test: if (cfqd->serving_type == SYNC_NOIDLE_WORKLOAD && new_cfqq->service_tree == cfqq->service_tree) return true; However since at that time cfqq->service_tree was not set for idling queues, this test was unreliable and was replaced in commit e4a22919 "cfq-iosched: fix no-idle preemption logic" by: if (cfqd->serving_type == SYNC_NOIDLE_WORKLOAD && cfqq_type(new_cfqq) == SYNC_NOIDLE_WORKLOAD && new_cfqq->service_tree->count == 1) return true; That was a reliable test but was actually doing something different - now we preempt sync noidle queue only if the new queue is the only one busy in the service tree. These days cfq queue is kept in service tree even if it is idling and thus the original check would be safe again. But since we actually check that cfq queues are in the same cgroup, of the same priority class and workload type (sync noidle), we know that new_cfqq is fine to preempt cfqq. So just remove the service tree check. Acked-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

This splits bio in the middle of a vector to form the largest possible bio at the h/w's desired alignment, and guarantees the bio being split will have some data. The criteria for splitting is changed from the max sectors to the h/w's optimal sector alignment if it is provided. For h/w that advertise their block storage's underlying chunk size, it's a big performance win to not submit commands that cross them. If sector alignment is not provided, this patch uses the max sectors as before. This addresses the performance issue commit d3805611 attempted to fix, but was reverted due to splitting logic error.

NVDIMM devices, which can behave more like DRAM rather than block devices, may develop bad cache lines, or 'poison'. A block device exposed by the pmem driver can then consume poison via a read (or write), and cause a machine check. On platforms without machine check recovery features, this would mean a crash. The block device maintaining a runtime list of all known sectors that have poison can directly avoid this, and also provide a path forward to enable proper handling/recovery for DAX faults on such a device.

When tearing down a block device early in its lifetime, userspace may still be performing discovery actions like blkdev_ioctl() to re-read partitions. The nvdimm_revalidate_disk() implementation depends on disk->driverfs_dev to be valid at entry. However, it is set to NULL in del_gendisk() and fatally this is happening *before* the disk device is deleted from userspace view. There's no reason for del_gendisk() to clear ->driverfs_dev. That device is the parent of the disk. It is guaranteed to not be freed until the disk, as a child, drops its ->parent reference. We could also fix this issue locally in nvdimm_revalidate_disk() by using disk_to_dev(disk)->parent, but lets fix it globally since ->driverfs_dev follows the lifetime of the parent. Longer term we should probably just add a @parent parameter to add_disk(), and stop carrying this pointer in the gendisk.

Timer context is not very useful for drivers to perform any meaningful abort action from. So instead of calling the driver from this useless context defer it to a workqueue as soon as possible. Note that while a delayed_work item would seem the right thing here I didn't dare to use it due to the magic in blk_add_timer that pokes deep into timer internals. But maybe this encourages Tejun to add a sensible API for that to the workqueue API and we'll all be fine in the end :) Contains a major update from Keith Bush: "This patch removes synchronizing the timeout work so that the timer can start a freeze on its own queue.

The routines in scsi_pm.c assume that if a runtime-PM callback is invoked for a SCSI device, it can only mean that the device's driver has asked the block layer to handle the runtime power management (by calling blk_pm_runtime_init(), which among other things sets q->dev). However, this assumption turns out to be wrong for things like the ses driver. Normally ses devices are not allowed to do runtime PM, but userspace can override this setting. If this happens, the kernel gets a NULL pointer dereference when blk_post_runtime_resume() tries to use the uninitialized q->dev pointer. This patch fixes the problem by checking q->dev in block layer before handle runtime PM. Since ses doesn't define any PM callbacks and call blk_pm_runtime_init(), the crash won't occur. This fixes Bugzilla #101371. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101371 More discussion can be found from below link. http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=144163730531875&w=2Signed-off-by: NKen Xue <Ken.Xue@amd.com> Acked-by: NAlan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: Xiangliang Yu <Xiangliang.Yu@amd.com> Cc: James E.J.

Consider the following v2 hierarchy. P0 (+memory) --- P1 (-memory) --- A \- B P0 has memory enabled in its subtree_control while P1 doesn't. If both A and B contain processes, they would belong to the memory css of P1. Now if memory is enabled on P1's subtree_control, memory csses should be created on both A and B and A's processes should be moved to the former and B's processes the latter. IOW, enabling controllers can cause atomic migrations into different csses. The core cgroup migration logic has been updated accordingly but the controller migration methods haven't and still assume that all tasks migrate to a single target css; furthermore, the methods were fed the css in which subtree_control was updated which is the parent of the target csses. pids controller depends on the migration methods to move charges and this made the controller attribute charges to the wrong csses often triggering the following warning by driving a counter negative.

The only change made by this patchset is how that single destination css is obtained. * memory migration path already doesn't do anything on v2. How the single destination css is obtained is updated and the prep stage of mem_cgroup_can_attach() is reordered to accomodate the change. * pids is the only controller which was affected by this bug.

Commit 4f258a46 ("sd: Fix maximum I/O size for BLOCK_PC requests") had the unfortunate side-effect of removing an implicit clamp to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS for REQ_TYPE_FS requests in the block layer code. This caused problems for some SMR drives. Debugging this issue revealed a few problems with the existing infrastructure since the block layer didn't know how to deal with device-imposed limits, only limits set by the I/O controller. - Introduce a new queue limit, max_dev_sectors, which is used by the ULD to signal the maximum sectors for a REQ_TYPE_FS request. - Ensure that max_dev_sectors is correctly stacked and taken into account when overriding max_sectors through sysfs. - Rework sd_read_block_limits() so it saves the max_xfer and opt_xfer values for later processing. - In sd_revalidate() set the queue's max_dev_sectors based on the MAXIMUM TRANSFER LENGTH value in the Block Limits VPD. If this value is not reported, fall back to a cap based on the CDB TRANSFER LENGTH field size. - In sd_revalidate(), use OPTIMAL TRANSFER LENGTH from the Block Limits VPD--if reported and sane--to signal the preferred device transfer size for FS requests. Otherwise use BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS. - blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() is no longer used and can be removed. Signed-off-by: NMartin K.

And this is actually required since the flush machinery uses the space in struct request for something else. Doh. So my patch is just wrong and not easy to fix since at the time __get_request() is called we are not sure whether the flush machinery will be used in the end. Jens, please revert 1b2ff19e. Thanks! I'm somewhat surprised that you can reliably hit the race where flushing gets disabled for the device just while the request is in flight. But I guess during boot it makes some sense. -- So let's just revert it, we can fix the queue run manually after the fact. This race is rare enough that it didn't trigger in testing, it requires the specific disable-while-in-flight scenario to trigger.

Just a comment update on not needing queue_lock, and that we aren't really adding the request to a timeout list for !mq. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
