We can hook this up to the block layer, to help throttle buffered
writes.

wbt registers a few trace points that can be used to track what is
happening in the system:

wbt_lat: 259:0: latency 2446318
wbt_stat: 259:0: rmean=2446318, rmin=2446318, rmax=2446318, rsamples=1,
               wmean=518866, wmin=15522, wmax=5330353, wsamples=57
wbt_step: 259:0: step down: step=1, window=72727272, background=8, normal=16, max=32

This shows a sync issue event (wbt_lat) that exceeded it's time. wbt_stat
dumps the current read/write stats for that window, and wbt_step shows a
step down event where we now scale back writes. Each trace includes the
device, 259:0 in this case.

For legacy block, we simply track them in the request queue. For
blk-mq, we track them on a per-sw queue basis, which we can then
sum up through the hardware queues and finally to a per device
state.

The stats are tracked in, roughly, 0.1s interval windows.

Add sysfs files to display the stats.

The feature is off by default, to avoid any extra overhead. In-kernel
users of it can turn it on by setting QUEUE_FLAG_STATS in the queue
flags. We currently don't turn it on if someone just reads any of
the stats files, that is something we could add as well.

This adds a shared per-request structure for all NVMe I/O.  This structure
is embedded as the first member in all NVMe transport drivers request
private data and allows to implement common functionality between the
drivers.

The first use is to replace the current abuse of the SCSI command
passthrough fields in struct request for the NVMe command passthrough,
but it will grow a field more fields to allow implementing things
like common abort handlers in the future.

The passthrough commands are handled by having a pointer to the SQE
(struct nvme_command) in struct nvme_request, and the union of the
possible result fields, which had to be turned from an anonymous
into a named union for that purpose.  This avoids having to pass
a reference to a full CQE around and thus makes checking the result
a lot more lightweight.

Hi Peter, hi Jens,

I've been looking over the multi page bio vec work again recently, and
one of the stumbling blocks is raw biovec access in the pktcdvd.

The first issue is that it directly sets up the page and offset pointers
in the biovec just before calling bio_add_page.  As bio_add_page already
does the setup it's trivial to just switch it to stack variables for the
arguments.

The second issue is the copy code in pkt_make_local_copy, which
effectively is an opencoded version of bio_copy_data except that it
skips pages that already are the same in the ѕource and destination.
But we look at the only calleer we just set up the bio using bio_add_page
to point exactly to the page array that pkt_make_local_copy compares,
so the pages will always be the same and we can just remove this function.

Note that all this is done based on code inspection, I don't have any
packet writing hardware myself.

Commit 0e87e58b ("blk-mq: improve warning for running a queue on the
wrong CPU") attempts to avoid triggering the WARN_ON in
__blk_mq_run_hw_queue when the expected CPU is dead.  Problem is, in the
last batch execution before round robin, blk_mq_hctx_next_cpu can
schedule a dead CPU and also update next_cpu to the next alive CPU in
the mask, which will trigger the WARN_ON despite the previous
workaround.

The following patch fixes this scenario by always scheduling the value
in hctx->next_cpu.  This changes the moment when we round-robin the CPU
running the hctx, but it really doesn't matter, since it still executes
BLK_MQ_CPU_WORK_BATCH times in a row before switching to another CPU.

For blk-mq, ->nr_requests does track queue depth, at least at init
time. But for the older queue paths, it's simply a soft setting.
On top of that, it's generally larger than the hardware setting
on purpose, to allow backup of requests for merging.

Fill a hole in struct request with a 'queue_depth' member, that
drivers can call to more closely inform the block layer of the

Currently block plug holds up to 16 non-mergeable requests. This makes
sense if the request size is small, eg, reduce lock contention. But if
request size is big enough, we don't need to worry about lock
contention. Holding such request makes no sense and it lows the disk
utilization.

In practice, this improves 10% throughput for my raid5 sequential write
workload.

The size (128k) is arbitrary right now, but it makes sure lock
contention is small. This probably could be more intelligent, eg, check
average request size holded. Since this is mainly for sequential IO,
probably not worthy.

V2: check the last request instead of the first request, so as long as
there is one big size request we flush the plug.

blk_mq_quiesce_queue() waits until ongoing .queue_rq() invocations
have finished. This function does *not* wait until all outstanding
requests have finished (this means invocation of request.end_io()).
The algorithm used by blk_mq_quiesce_queue() is as follows:
* Hold either an RCU read lock or an SRCU read lock around
  .queue_rq() calls. The former is used if .queue_rq() does not
  block and the latter if .queue_rq() may block.
* blk_mq_quiesce_queue() first calls blk_mq_stop_hw_queues()
  followed by synchronize_srcu() or synchronize_rcu(). The latter
  call waits for .queue_rq() invocations that started before
  blk_mq_quiesce_queue() was called.
* The blk_mq_hctx_stopped() calls that control whether or not
  .queue_rq() will be called are called with the (S)RCU read lock
  held. This is necessary to avoid race conditions against
  blk_mq_quiesce_queue().

Since blk_mq_requeue_work() starts stopped queues and since
execution of this function can be scheduled after a queue has
been stopped it is not possible to stop queues without using
an additional state variable to track whether or not the queue
has been stopped. Hence modify blk_mq_requeue_work() such that it
does not start stopped queues. My conclusion after a review of
the blk_mq_stop_hw_queues() and blk_mq_{delay_,}kick_requeue_list()
callers is as follows:
* In the dm driver starting and stopping queues should only happen
  if __dm_suspend() or __dm_resume() is called and not if the
  requeue list is processed.
* In the SCSI core queue stopping and starting should only be
  performed by the scsi_internal_device_block() and
  scsi_internal_device_unblock() functions but not by any other
  function. Although the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call in
  scsi_queue_rq() may help to reduce CPU load if a LLD queue is
  full, figuring out whether or not a queue should be restarted
  when requeueing a command would require to introduce additional
  locking in scsi_mq_requeue_cmd() to avoid a race with
  scsi_internal_device_block(). Avoid this complexity by removing
  the blk_mq_stop_hw_queue() call from scsi_queue_rq().
* In the NVMe core only the functions that call
  blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues() explicitly should start stopped
  queues.
* A blk_mq_start_stopped_hwqueues() call must be added in the
  xen-blkfront driver in its blkif_recover() function.
