      block: split bios to max possible length · e36f6204
      Keith Busch 提交于
      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.

      Revert "block: Split bios on chunk boundaries" · 6126eb24
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      This reverts commit d3805611.
      
      If we end up splitting on the first segment, we don't adjust
      the sector count. That results in hitting a BUG() with attempting
      to split 0 sectors.
      
      As this is just a performance issue and not a regression since
      4.3 release, let's just rever this change. That gives us more
      time to test a real fix for 4.5, which would be marked for
      stable anyway.

      block: blk-merge: fast-clone bio when splitting rw bios · 52cc6eea
      Ming Lei 提交于
      biovecs has become immutable since v3.13, so it isn't necessary
      to allocate biovecs for the new cloned bios, then we can save
      one extra biovecs allocation/copy, and the allocation is often
      not fixed-length and a bit more expensive.
      
      For example, if the 'max_sectors_kb' of null blk's queue is set
      as 16(32 sectors) via sysfs just for making more splits, this patch
      can increase throught about ~70% in the sequential read test over
      null_blk(direct io, bs: 1M).

      block: make generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios · 54efd50b
      Kent Overstreet 提交于
      The way the block layer is currently written, it goes to great lengths
      to avoid having to split bios; upper layer code (such as bio_add_page())
      checks what the underlying device can handle and tries to always create
      bios that don't need to be split.
      
      But this approach becomes unwieldy and eventually breaks down with
      stacked devices and devices with dynamic limits, and it adds a lot of
      complexity. If the block layer could split bios as needed, we could
      eliminate a lot of complexity elsewhere - particularly in stacked
      drivers. Code that creates bios can then create whatever size bios are
      convenient, and more importantly stacked drivers don't have to deal with
      both their own bio size limitations and the limitations of the
      (potentially multiple) devices underneath them.  In the future this will
      let us delete merge_bvec_fn and a bunch of other code.
      
      We do this by adding calls to blk_queue_split() to the various
      make_request functions that need it - a few can already handle arbitrary
      size bios. Note that we add the call _after_ any call to
      blk_queue_bounce(); this means that blk_queue_split() and
      blk_recalc_rq_segments() don't need to be concerned with bouncing
      affecting segment merging.
      
      Some make_request_fn() callbacks were simple enough to audit and verify
      they don't need blk_queue_split() calls. The skipped ones are:
      
       * nfhd_make_request (arch/m68k/emu/nfblock.c)
       * axon_ram_make_request (arch/powerpc/sysdev/axonram.c)
       * simdisk_make_request (arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c)
       * brd_make_request (ramdisk - drivers/block/brd.c)
       * mtip_submit_request (drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.c)
       * loop_make_request
       * null_queue_bio
       * bcache's make_request fns
      
      Some others are almost certainly safe to remove now, but will be left
      for future patches.

      Some places use helpers now, others don't. We only have the 'is set'

      It was a bit of a mess of atomic vs non-atomic access. With
      BIO_UPTODATE gone, we don't have any risk of concurrent access to the
      flags. So relax the restriction and don't make any of them atomic. The
      flags that do have serialization issues (reffed and chained), we
      already handle those separately.
