Reclaim the space lost in 'struct request' by moving 'completion_data'

The current FLUSH/FUA support has evolved from the implementation
which had to perform queue draining.  As such, sequencing is done
queue-wide one flush request after another.  However, with the
draining requirement gone, there's no reason to keep the queue-wide
sequential approach.

This patch reimplements FLUSH/FUA support such that each FLUSH/FUA
request is sequenced individually.  The actual FLUSH execution is
double buffered and whenever a request wants to execute one for either
PRE or POSTFLUSH, it queues on the pending queue.  Once certain
conditions are met, a flush request is issued and on its completion
all pending requests proceed to the next sequence.

This allows arbitrary merging of different type of flushes.  How they
are merged can be primarily controlled and tuned by adjusting the
above said 'conditions' used to determine when to issue the next
flush.

This is inspired by Darrick's patches to merge multiple zero-data
flushes which helps workloads with highly concurrent fsync requests.

* As flush requests are never put on the IO scheduler, request fields
  used for flush share space with rq->rb_node.  rq->completion_data is
  moved out of the union.  This increases the request size by one
  pointer.

  As rq->elevator_private* are used only by the iosched too, it is
  possible to reduce the request size further.  However, to do that,
  we need to modify request allocation path such that iosched data is
  not allocated for flush requests.

* FLUSH/FUA processing happens on insertion now instead of dispatch.

Its reason is the wrong way of accounting hd_struct->in_flight. When a bio is
merged into a request belongs to different partition by ELEVATOR_FRONT_MERGE.

The detailed root cause is as follows.

Assuming that there are two partition, sda1 and sda2.

1. A request for sda2 is in request_queue. Hence sda1's hd_struct->in_flight
   is 0 and sda2's one is 1.

        | hd_struct->in_flight
   ---------------------------
   sda1 |          0
   sda2 |          1
   ---------------------------

2. A bio belongs to sda1 is issued and is merged into the request mentioned on
   step1 by ELEVATOR_BACK_MERGE. The first sector of the request is changed
   from sda2 region to sda1 region. However the two partition's
   hd_struct->in_flight are not changed.

        | hd_struct->in_flight
   ---------------------------
   sda1 |          0
   sda2 |          1
   ---------------------------

3. The request is finished and blk_account_io_done() is called. In this case,
   sda2's hd_struct->in_flight, not a sda1's one, is decremented.

        | hd_struct->in_flight
   ---------------------------
   sda1 |         -1
   sda2 |          1
   ---------------------------

The patch fixes the problem by caching the partition lookup
inside the request structure, hence making sure that the increment
and decrement will always happen on the same partition struct. This
also speeds up IO with accounting enabled, since it cuts down on
the number of lookups we have to do.

Also add a refcount to struct hd_struct to keep the partition in
memory as long as users exist. We use kref_test_and_get() to ensure
we don't add a reference to a partition which is going away.

DM needs this to avoid setting queue_limits' max_hw_sectors and

blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() logic to establish the appropriate
max_hw_sectors minimum (PAGE_SIZE).  Fixes issue where DM was
incorrectly setting max_sectors rather than max_hw_sectors (which

When stacking devices, a request_queue is not always available. This
forced us to have a no_cluster flag in the queue_limits that could be
used as a carrier until the request_queue had been set up for a
metadevice.

There were several problems with that approach. First of all it was up
to the stacking device to remember to set queue flag after stacking had
completed. Also, the queue flag and the queue limits had to be kept in
sync at all times. We got that wrong, which could lead to us issuing
commands that went beyond the max scatterlist limit set by the driver.

The proper fix is to avoid having two flags for tracking the same thing.
We deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use the queue limit directly in the
block layer merging functions. The queue_limit 'no_cluster' is turned
into 'cluster' to avoid double negatives and to ease stacking.
Clustering defaults to being enabled as before. The queue flag logic is
removed from the stacking function, and explicitly setting the cluster
flag is no longer necessary in DM and MD.

Currently, media presence polling for removeable block devices is done
from userland.  There are several issues with this.

* Polling is done by periodically opening the device.  For SCSI
  devices, the command sequence generated by such action involves a
  few different commands including TEST_UNIT_READY.  This behavior,
  while perfectly legal, is different from Windows which only issues
  single command, GET_EVENT_STATUS_NOTIFICATION.  Unfortunately, some
  ATAPI devices lock up after being periodically queried such command
  sequences.

* There is no reliable and unintrusive way for a userland program to
  tell whether the target device is safe for media presence polling.
  For example, polling for media presence during an on-going burning
  session can make it fail.  The polling program can avoid this by
  opening the device with O_EXCL but then it risks making a valid
  exclusive user of the device fail w/ -EBUSY.

* Userland polling is unnecessarily heavy and in-kernel implementation
  is lighter and better coordinated (workqueue, timer slack).

This patch implements framework for in-kernel disk event handling,
which includes media presence polling.

* bdops->check_events() is added, which supercedes ->media_changed().
  It should check whether there's any pending event and return if so.
  Currently, two events are defined - DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE and
  DISK_EVENT_EJECT_REQUEST.  ->check_events() is guaranteed not to be
  called parallelly.

* gendisk->events and ->async_events are added.  These should be
  initialized by block driver before passing the device to add_disk().
  The former contains the mask of all supported events and the latter
  the mask of all events which the device can report without polling.
  /sys/block/*/events[_async] export these to userland.

* Kernel parameter block.events_dfl_poll_msecs controls the system
  polling interval (default is 0 which means disable) and
  /sys/block/*/events_poll_msecs control polling intervals for
  individual devices (default is -1 meaning use system setting).  Note
  that if a device can report all supported events asynchronously and
  its polling interval isn't explicitly set, the device won't be
  polled regardless of the system polling interval.

* If a device is opened exclusively with write access, event checking
  is automatically disabled until all write exclusive accesses are
  released.

* There are event 'clearing' events.  For example, both of currently
  defined events are cleared after the device has been successfully
  opened.  This information is passed to ->check_events() callback
  using @clearing argument as a hint.

* Event checking is always performed from system_nrt_wq and timer
  slack is set to 25% for polling.

* Nothing changes for drivers which implement ->media_changed() but
  not ->check_events().  Going forward, all drivers will be converted
  to ->check_events() and ->media_change() will be dropped.

Now that the backend conversion is complete, export sequenced
FLUSH/FUA capability through REQ_FLUSH/FUA flags.  REQ_FLUSH means the
device cache should be flushed before executing the request.  REQ_FUA
means that the data in the request should be on non-volatile media on
completion.

Block layer will choose the correct way of implementing the semantics
and execute it.  The request may be passed to the device directly if
the device can handle it; otherwise, it will be sequenced using one or
more proxy requests.  Devices will never see REQ_FLUSH and/or FUA
which it doesn't support.

Also, unlike the original REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA requests are
never failed with -EOPNOTSUPP.  If the underlying device doesn't
support FLUSH/FUA, the block layer simply make those noop.  IOW, it no
longer distinguishes between writeback cache which doesn't support
cache flush and writethrough/no cache.  Devices which have WB cache
w/o flush are very difficult to come by these days and there's nothing
much we can do anyway, so it doesn't make sense to require everyone to
implement -EOPNOTSUPP handling.  This will simplify filesystems and
block drivers as they can drop -EOPNOTSUPP retry logic for barriers.

* QUEUE_ORDERED_* are removed and QUEUE_FSEQ_* are moved into
  blk-flush.c.

* REQ_FLUSH w/o data can also be directly passed to drivers without
  sequencing but some drivers assume that zero length requests don't
  have rq->bio which isn't true for these requests requiring the use
  of proxy requests.

* REQ_COMMON_MASK now includes REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA so that they are
  copied from bio to request.

* WRITE_BARRIER is marked deprecated and WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_FUA and
  WRITE_FLUSH_FUA are added.

Filesystems will take all the responsibilities for ordering requests
around commit writes and will only indicate how the commit writes
themselves should be handled by block layers.  This patch drops
barrier ordering by queue draining from block layer.  Ordering by
draining implementation was somewhat invasive to request handling.
List of notable changes follow.

* Each queue has 1 bit color which is flipped on each barrier issue.
  This is used to track whether a given request is issued before the
  current barrier or not.  REQ_ORDERED_COLOR flag and coloring
  implementation in __elv_add_request() are removed.

* Requests which shouldn't be processed yet for draining were stalled
  by returning -EAGAIN from blk_do_ordered() according to the test
  result between blk_ordered_req_seq() and blk_blk_ordered_cur_seq().
  This logic is removed.

* Draining completion logic in elv_completed_request() removed.

* All barrier sequence requests were queued to request queue and then
  trckled to lower layer according to progress and thus maintaining
  request orders during requeue was necessary.  This is replaced by
  queueing the next request in the barrier sequence only after the
  current one is complete from blk_ordered_complete_seq(), which
  removes the need for multiple proxy requests in struct request_queue
  and the request sorting logic in the ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE path of
  elv_insert().

* As barriers no longer have ordering constraints, there's no need to
  dump the whole elevator onto the dispatch queue on each barrier.
  Insert barriers at the front instead.

* If other barrier requests come to the front of the dispatch queue
  while one is already in progress, they are stored in
  q->pending_barriers and restored to dispatch queue one-by-one after
  each barrier completion from blk_ordered_complete_seq().

* blk_do_ordered() declaration is moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to

* blk_do_ordered() now returns pointer to struct request, with %NULL
  meaning "try the next request" and ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) "try again
  later".  The third case will be dropped with further changes.

* In the initialization of proxy barrier request, data direction is
  already set by init_request_from_bio().  Drop unnecessary explicit
  REQ_WRITE setting and move init_request_from_bio() above REQ_FUA
  flag setting.

* add_request() is collapsed into __make_request().

Barrier is deemed too heavy and will soon be replaced by FLUSH/FUA
requests.  Deprecate barrier.  All REQ_HARDBARRIERs are failed with
-EOPNOTSUPP and blk_queue_ordered() is replaced with simpler
blk_queue_flush().

blk_queue_flush() takes combinations of REQ_FLUSH and FUA.  If a
device has write cache and can flush it, it should set REQ_FLUSH.  If
the device can handle FUA writes, it should also set REQ_FUA.

All blk_queue_ordered() users are converted.

* ORDERED_DRAIN is mapped to 0 which is the default value.
* ORDERED_DRAIN_FLUSH is mapped to REQ_FLUSH.
* ORDERED_DRAIN_FLUSH_FUA is mapped to REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA.

As a preparation for the removal of the big kernel
lock in the block layer, this removes the BKL
from the common ioctl handling code, moving it
into every single driver still using it.

Allocating a fixed payload for discard requests always was a horrible hack,
and it's not coming to byte us when adding support for discard in DM/MD.

So change the code to leave the allocation of a payload to the lowlevel
driver.  Unfortunately that means we'll need another hack, which allows
us to update the various block layer length fields indicating that we
have a payload.  Instead of hiding this in sd.c, which we already partially
do for UNMAP support add a documented helper in the core block layer for it.

Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too.
This allows to more easily trace the type of I/O from the filesystem
down to the block driver.  There were two flags in the bio that were
missing in the requests:  BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD.  Also I've
renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them.

Note that the flags are in bio.h despite having the REQ_ name - as
blkdev.h includes bio.h that is the only way to go for now.

Remove all the trivial wrappers for the cmd_type and cmd_flags fields in
struct requests.  This allows much easier grepping for different request
types instead of unwinding through macros.

block uses ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD for BLK_BOUNCE_ISA. Only SCSI uses
ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD for ancient drivers with non-zero
unchecked_isa_dma. Nowadays drivers (and subsystems) use dma_mask
properly instead of ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD.

Documentation/scsi/scsi_mid_low_api.txt says:

unchecked_isa_dma - 1=>only use bottom 16 MB of ram (ISA DMA addressing
                   restriction), 0=>can use full 32 bit (or better) DMA
                   address space

So block simply uses DMA_BIT_MASK(24) for BLK_BOUNCE_ISA for SCSI.

There are two reasons for doing this:

- On SSD disks, the completion times aren't as random as they
  are for rotational drives. So it's questionable whether they
  should contribute to the random pool in the first place.

- Calling add_disk_randomness() has a lot of overhead.

This adds /sys/block/<dev>/queue/add_random that will allow you to
switch off on a per-device basis. The default setting is on, so there
should be no functional changes from this patch.

Commit 9195291e added calls to
sched_clock() from preemptible code. sched_clock() is both the
wrong interface AND cannot be called without preempt disabled.

Apply a temporary fix to get rid of the warnings, a real patch
is in the works.

bdops->set_capacity() is unnecessarily generic.  All that's required
is a simple one way notification to lower level driver telling it to
try to unlock native capacity.  There's no reason to pass in target
capacity or return the new capacity.  The former is always the
inherent native capacity and the latter can be handled via the usual
device resize / revalidation path.  In fact, the current API is always
used that way.

Replace ->set_capacity() with ->unlock_native_capacity() which take
only @disk and doesn't return anything.  IDE which is the only current
user of the API is converted accordingly.

This callback is required when RAM based devices are used as swap disks.
One such device is ramzswap which is used as compressed in-memory swap
disk.  For such devices, we need a callback as soon as a swap slot is no
longer used to allow freeing memory allocated for this slot.  Without this
callback, stale data can quickly accumulate in memory defeating the whole
purpose of such devices.

blk_init_queue() allocates the request_queue structure and then
initializes it as needed (request_fn, elevator, etc).

Split initialization out to blk_init_allocated_queue_node.
Introduce blk_init_allocated_queue wrapper function to model existing
blk_init_queue and blk_init_queue_node interfaces.

Export elv_register_queue to allow a newly added elevator to be
registered with sysfs.  Export elv_unregister_queue for symmetry.

These changes allow DM to initialize a device's request_queue with more
precision.  In particular, DM no longer unconditionally initializes a
full request_queue (elevator et al).  It only does so for a
request-based DM device.
