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. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

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. - Comments updated as per Vivek and Mike.

bio's for flush are completed twice - once during the data phase and one more time after the whole sequence is complete. The first completion shouldn't notify completion to the issuer. This was achieved by skipping all bio completion steps in req_bio_endio() for the first completion; however, this has two drawbacks. * Error is not recorded in bio and must be tracked somewhere else. * Partial completion is not supported. Both don't cause problems for the current users; however, they make further improvements difficult. Change req_bio_endio() such that it only skips the actual notification part for the first completion. bio completion is implemented with partial completions on mind anyway so this is as simple as moving the REQ_FLUSH_SEQ conditional such that only calling of bio_endio() is skipped.

rq == &q->flush_rq was used to determine whether a rq is part of a flush sequence, which worked because all requests in a flush sequence were sequenced using the single dedicated request.

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().

On blk_init_allocated_queue_node failure, only free the request_queue if it is wasn't previously allocated outside the block layer (e.g. blk_init_queue_node was blk_init_allocated_queue_node caller). This addresses an interface bug introduced by the following commit: 01effb0d block: allow initialization of previously allocated request_queue Otherwise the request_queue may be free'd out from underneath a caller that is managing the request_queue directly (e.g. caller uses blk_alloc_queue + blk_init_allocated_queue_node).

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. Signed-off-by: NMike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
