If the request_fn ends up blocking, we could be re-entering
the plug flush. Since the list is protected by explicitly
not allowing schedule events, this isn't a terribly good idea.

Additionally, it can cause us to recurse. As request_fn called by
__blk_run_queue is allowed to 'schedule()' (after dropping the queue
lock of course), it is possible to get a recursive call:

 schedule -> blk_flush_plug -> __blk_finish_plug -> flush_plug_list
      -> __blk_run_queue -> request_fn -> schedule

We must make sure that the second schedule does not call into
blk_flush_plug again.  So instead of leaving the list of requests on
blk_plug->list, move them to a separate list leaving blk_plug->list
empty.

The current block integrity (DIF/DIX) support in DM is verifying that
all devices' integrity profiles match during DM device resume (which
is past the point of no return).  To some degree that is unavoidable
(stacked DM devices force this late checking).  But for most DM
devices (which aren't stacking on other DM devices) the ideal time to
verify all integrity profiles match is during table load.

Introduce the notion of an "initialized" integrity profile: a profile
that was blk_integrity_register()'d with a non-NULL 'blk_integrity'
template.  Add blk_integrity_is_initialized() to allow checking if a
profile was initialized.

Update DM integrity support to:
- check all devices with _initialized_ integrity profiles match
  during table load; uninitialized profiles (e.g. for underlying DM
  device(s) of a stacked DM device) are ignored.
- disallow a table load that would result in an integrity profile that
  conflicts with a DM device's existing (in-use) integrity profile
- avoid clearing an existing integrity profile
- validate all integrity profiles match during resume; but if they
  don't all we can do is report the mismatch (during resume we're past
  the point of no return)

Lina reported that if throttle limits are initially very high and then
dropped, then no new bio might be dispatched for a long time. And the
reason being that after dropping the limits we don't reset the existing
slice and do the rate calculation with new low rate and account the bios
dispatched at high rate. To fix it, reset the slice upon rate change.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/10/298

Another problem with very high limit is that we never queued the
bio on throtl service tree. That means we kept on extending the
group slice but never trimmed it. Fix that also by regulary
trimming the slice even if bio is not being queued up.

One of the disadvantages of on-stack plugging is that we potentially
lose out on merging since all pending IO isn't always visible to
everybody. When we flush the on-stack plugs, right now we don't do
any checks to see if potential merge candidates could be utilized.

Correct this by adding a new insert variant, ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT_MERGE.
It works just ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT, but first checks whether we can
merge with an existing request before doing the insertion (if we fail
merging).

This fixes a regression with multiple processes issuing IO that
can be merged.

Version 3 is updated to apply to for-2.6.39/core.

For version 2, I took Vivek's advice and made sure we update the group
weight from cfq_group_service_tree_add().

If a weight was updated while a group is on the service tree, the
calculation for the total weight of the service tree can be adjusted
improperly, which either leads to bad service tree weights, or
potentially crashes (if total_weight becomes 0).

This patch defers updates to the weight until a group is off the service

We can hit serious mis-synchronization in bio completion path of
blkdev_issue_zeroout() leading to a panic.

The problem is that when we are going to wait_for_completion() in
blkdev_issue_zeroout() we check if the bb.done equals issued (number of
submitted bios). If it does, we can skip the wait_for_completition()
and just out of the function since there is nothing to wait for.
However, there is a ordering problem because bio_batch_end_io() is
calling atomic_inc(&bb->done) before complete(), hence it might seem to
blkdev_issue_zeroout() that all bios has been completed and exit. At
this point when bio_batch_end_io() is going to call complete(bb->wait),
bb and wait does not longer exist since it was allocated on stack in
blkdev_issue_zeroout() ==> panic!

(thread 1)                      (thread 2)
bio_batch_end_io()              blkdev_issue_zeroout()
  if(bb) {                      ...
    if (bb->end_io)             ...
      bb->end_io(bio, err);     ...
    atomic_inc(&bb->done);      ...
    ...                         while (issued != atomic_read(&bb.done))
    ...                         (let issued == bb.done)
    ...                         (do the rest of the function)
    ...                         return ret;
    complete(bb->wait);
    ^^^^^^^^
    panic

We can fix this easily by simplifying bio_batch and completion counting.

Also remove bio_end_io_t *end_io since it is not used.

This patch adds support for creating a queuing context outside
of the queue itself. This enables us to batch up pieces of IO
before grabbing the block device queue lock and submitting them to
the IO scheduler.

The context is created on the stack of the process and assigned in
the task structure, so that we can auto-unplug it if we hit a schedule
event.

The current queue plugging happens implicitly if IO is submitted to
an empty device, yet callers have to remember to unplug that IO when
they are going to wait for it. This is an ugly API and has caused bugs
in the past. Additionally, it requires hacks in the vm (->sync_page()
callback) to handle that logic. By switching to an explicit plugging
scheme we make the API a lot nicer and can get rid of the ->sync_page()
hack in the vm.

        block: fix use-after-free bug in blk throttle code

This patch reverts above change and does not try to shutdown the
throtl work in blk_sync_queue(). By avoiding call to
throtl_shutdown_timer_wq() from blk_sync_queue(), we should also avoid
the problem reported by Ingo.

blk_sync_queue() seems to be used only by md driver and it seems to be
using it to make sure q->unplug_fn is not called as md registers its
own unplug functions and it is about to free up the data structures
used by unplug_fn(). Block throttle does not call back into unplug_fn()
or into md. So there is no need to cancel blk throttle work.

In fact I think cancelling block throttle work is bad because it might
happen that some bios are throttled and scheduled to be dispatched later
with the help of pending work and if work is cancelled, these bios might
never be dispatched.

Block layer also uses blk_sync_queue() during blk_cleanup_queue() and
blk_release_queue() time. That should be safe as we are also calling
blk_throtl_exit() which should make sure all the throttling related
data structures are cleaned up.

There does not seem to be a clear convention whether q->queue_lock is
initialized or not when blk_cleanup_queue() is called. In the past it
was not necessary but now blk_throtl_exit() takes up queue lock by
default and needs queue lock to be available.

In fact elevator_exit() code also has similar requirement just that it
is less stringent in the sense that elevator_exit() is called only if
elevator is initialized.

Two problems have been noticed because of ambiguity about spin lock
status.

      - If a driver calls blk_alloc_queue() and then soon calls
        blk_cleanup_queue() almost immediately, (because some other
	driver structure allocation failed or some other error happened)
	then blk_throtl_exit() will run into issues as queue lock is not
	initialized. Loop driver ran into this issue recently and I
	noticed error paths in md driver too. Similar error paths should
	exist in other drivers too.

      - If some driver provided external spin lock and zapped the lock
        before blk_cleanup_queue(), then it can lead to issues.

So this patch initializes the default queue lock at queue allocation time.

block throttling code is one of the users of queue lock and it is
initialized at the queue allocation time, so it makes sense to
initialize ->queue_lock also to internal lock. A driver can overide that
lock later. This will take care of the issue where a driver does not have
to worry about initializing the queue lock to default before calling
blk_cleanup_queue()

blk-flush decomposes a flush into sequence of multiple requests.  On
completion of a request, the next one is queued; however, block layer
must not implicitly call into q->request_fn() directly from completion
path.  This makes the queue behave unexpectedly when seen from the
drivers and violates the assumption that q->request_fn() is called
with process context + queue_lock.

This patch makes blk-flush the following two changes to make sure
q->request_fn() is not called directly from request completion path.

- blk_flush_complete_seq_end_io() now asks __blk_run_queue() to always
  use kblockd instead of calling directly into q->request_fn().

- queue_next_fseq() uses ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE instead of
  ELEVATOR_INSERT_FRONT so that elv_insert() doesn't try to unplug the
  request queue directly.
