d928be9f85 block: add a REQ_NOUNMAP flag for REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES
If this flag is set logical provisioning capable device should
release space for the zeroed blocks if possible, if it is not set
devices should keep the blocks anchored.

Also remove an out of sync kerneldoc comment for a static function
that would have become even more out of data with this change.

fbbaf700e7 block: trace completion of all bios.
Currently only dm and md/raid5 bios trigger
trace_block_bio_complete().  Now that we have bio_chain() and
bio_inc_remaining(), it is not possible, in general, for a driver to
know when the bio is really complete.  Only bio_endio() knows that.

So move the trace_block_bio_complete() call to bio_endio().

Now trace_block_bio_complete() pairs with trace_block_bio_queue().
Any bio for which a 'queue' event is traced, will subsequently
generate a 'complete' event.

There are a few cases where completion tracing is not wanted.
1/ If blk_update_request() has already generated a completion
   trace event at the 'request' level, there is no point generating
   one at the bio level too.  In this case the bi_sector and bi_size
   will have changed, so the bio level event would be wrong

2/ If the bio hasn't actually been queued yet, but is being aborted
   early, then a trace event could be confusing.  Some filesystems
   call bio_endio() but do not want tracing.

3/ The bio_integrity code interposes itself by replacing bi_end_io,
   then restoring it and calling bio_endio() again.  This would produce
   two identical trace events if left like that.

To handle these, we introduce a flag BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION and only
produce the trace event when this is set.
We address point 1 above by clearing the flag in blk_update_request().
We address point 2 above by only setting the flag when
generic_make_request() is called.
We address point 3 above by clearing the flag after generating a
completion event.

When bio_split() is used on a bio, particularly in blk_queue_split(),
there is an extra complication.  A new bio is split off the front, and
may be handle directly without going through generic_make_request().
The old bio, which has been advanced, is passed to
generic_make_request(), so it will trigger a trace event a second
time.
Probably the best result when a split happens is to see a single
'queue' event for the whole bio, then multiple 'complete' events - one
for each component.  To achieve this was can:
- copy the BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION flag to the new bio in bio_split()
- avoid generating a 'queue' event if BIO_TRACE_COMPLETION is already set.
This way, the split-off bio won't create a queue event, the original
won't either even if it re-submitted to generic_make_request(),
but both will produce completion events, each for their own range.

So if generic_make_request() is called (which generates a QUEUED
event), then bi_endio() will create a single COMPLETE event for each
range that the bio is split into, unless the driver has explicitly
requested it not to.

dbde775cdb block: simple improvements for bio->flags
The comment for the 'flags' field of 'bio' mentions
"command" which is no longer stored there, and doesn't
mention the bvec pool number, which is.

BIO_RESET_BITS is set in such a way that it would need to be
updated if new bits were added, which is easy to miss.

BVEC_POOL_BITS is larger than needed.  The BVEC_POOL_IDX()
ranges from 0 to 6, so 3 bits are sufficient.

This patch make improvements in each of these areas.

b9147dd1ba blk-throttle: add a mechanism to estimate IO latency
User configures latency target, but the latency threshold for each
request size isn't fixed. For a SSD, the IO latency highly depends on
request size. To calculate latency threshold, we sample some data, eg,
average latency for request size 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k .. 1M. The latency
threshold of each request size will be the sample latency (I'll call it
base latency) plus latency target. For example, the base latency for
request size 4k is 80us and user configures latency target 60us. The 4k
latency threshold will be 80 + 60 = 140us.

To sample data, we calculate the order base 2 of rounded up IO sectors.
If the IO size is bigger than 1M, it will be accounted as 1M. Since the
calculation does round up, the base latency will be slightly smaller
than actual value. Also if there isn't any IO dispatched for a specific
IO size, we will use the base latency of smaller IO size for this IO
size.

But we shouldn't sample data at any time. The base latency is supposed
to be latency where disk isn't congested, because we use latency
threshold to schedule IOs between cgroups. If disk is congested, the
latency is higher, using it for scheduling is meaningless. Hence we only
do the sampling when block throttling is in the LOW limit, with
assumption disk isn't congested in such state. If the assumption isn't
true, eg, low limit is too high, calculated latency threshold will be
higher.

Hard disk is completely different. Latency depends on spindle seek
instead of request size. Currently this feature is SSD only, we probably
can use a fixed threshold like 4ms for hard disk though.

Currently there is no way to know the request size when the request is

9e234eeafb blk-throttle: add a simple idle detection
A cgroup gets assigned a low limit, but the cgroup could never dispatch
enough IO to cross the low limit. In such case, the queue state machine
will remain in LIMIT_LOW state and all other cgroups will be throttled
according to low limit. This is unfair for other cgroups. We should
treat the cgroup idle and upgrade the state machine to lower state.

We also have a downgrade logic. If the state machine upgrades because of
cgroup idle (real idle), the state machine will downgrade soon as the
cgroup is below its low limit. This isn't what we want. A more
complicated case is cgroup isn't idle when queue is in LIMIT_LOW. But
when queue gets upgraded to lower state, other cgroups could dispatch
more IO and this cgroup can't dispatch enough IO, so the cgroup is below
its low limit and looks like idle (fake idle). In this case, the queue
should downgrade soon. The key to determine if we should do downgrade is
to detect if cgroup is truely idle.

Unfortunately it's very hard to determine if a cgroup is real idle. This
patch uses the 'think time check' idea from CFQ for the purpose. Please
note, the idea doesn't work for all workloads. For example, a workload
with io depth 8 has disk utilization 100%, hence think time is 0, eg,
not idle. But the workload can run higher bandwidth with io depth 16.
Compared to io depth 16, the io depth 8 workload is idle. We use the
idea to roughly determine if a cgroup is idle.

We treat a cgroup idle if its think time is above a threshold (by
default 1ms for SSD and 100ms for HD). The idea is think time above the
threshold will start to harm performance. HD is much slower so a longer
think time is ok.

The patch (and the latter patches) uses 'unsigned long' to track time.
We convert 'ns' to 'us' with 'ns >> 10'. This is fast but loses
precision, should not a big deal.

34dbad5d26 blk-stat: convert to callback-based statistics reporting
Currently, statistics are gathered in ~0.13s windows, and users grab the
statistics whenever they need them. This is not ideal for both in-tree
users:

1. Writeback throttling wants its own dynamically sized window of
   statistics. Since the blk-stats statistics are reset after every
   window and the wbt windows don't line up with the blk-stats windows,
   wbt doesn't see every I/O.
2. Polling currently grabs the statistics on every I/O. Again, depending
   on how the window lines up, we may miss some I/Os. It's also
   unnecessary overhead to get the statistics on every I/O; the hybrid
   polling heuristic would be just as happy with the statistics from the
   previous full window.

This reworks the blk-stats infrastructure to be callback-based: users
register a callback that they want called at a given time with all of
the statistics from the window during which the callback was active.
Users can dynamically bucketize the statistics. wbt and polling both
currently use read vs. write, but polling can be extended to further
subdivide based on request size.

The callbacks are kept on an RCU list, and each callback has percpu
stats buffers. There will only be a few users, so the overhead on the
I/O completion side is low. The stats flushing is also simplified
considerably: since the timer function is responsible for clearing the
statistics, we don't have to worry about stale statistics.

wbt is a trivial conversion. After the conversion, the windowing problem
mentioned above is fixed.

For polling, we register an extra callback that caches the previous
window's statistics in the struct request_queue for the hybrid polling
heuristic to use.

Since we no longer have a single stats buffer for the request queue,
this also removes the sysfs and debugfs stats entries. To replace those,
we add a debugfs entry for the poll statistics.

either discard with a predictable zero pattern or WRITE SAME of zeroes.
The prominent example of that is NVMe with the Write Zeroes command,
but in the future, this should also help with improving the way
zeroing discards work. For this operation, suitable entry is exported in
sysfs which indicate the number of maximum bytes allowed in one
write zeroes operation by the device.

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

This worked surprisingly long, but the new REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT operation

Surprisingly nothing critical relied on this direction, but this might

to renumber the operations to fix this scheme.

ef295ecf09 block: better op and flags encoding
Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields.  This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.

In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.

Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits.  Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

3fc9d69093 Merge branch 'for-4.8/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block driver updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This branch also contains core changes.  I've come to the conclusion
  that from 4.9 and forward, I'll be doing just a single branch.  We
  often have dependencies between core and drivers, and it's hard to
  always split them up appropriately without pulling core into drivers
  when that happens.

  That said, this contains:

   - separate secure erase type for the core block layer, from
     Christoph.

   - set of discard fixes, from Christoph.

   - bio shrinking fixes from Christoph, as a followup up to the
     op/flags change in the core branch.

   - map and append request fixes from Christoph.

   - NVMeF (NVMe over Fabrics) code from Christoph.  This is pretty
     exciting!

   - nvme-loop fixes from Arnd.

   - removal of ->driverfs_dev from Dan, after providing a
     device_add_disk() helper.

   - bcache fixes from Bhaktipriya and Yijing.

   - cdrom subchannel read fix from Vchannaiah.

   - set of lightnvm updates from Wenwei, Matias, Johannes, and Javier.

   - set of drbd updates and fixes from Fabian, Lars, and Philipp.

   - mg_disk error path fix from Bart.

   - user notification for failed device add for loop, from Minfei.

   - NVMe in general:
        + NVMe delay quirk from Guilherme.
        + SR-IOV support and command retry limits from Keith.
        + fix for memory-less NUMA node from Masayoshi.
        + use UINT_MAX for discard sectors, from Minfei.
        + cancel IO fixes from Ming.
        + don't allocate unused major, from Neil.
        + error code fixup from Dan.
        + use constants for PSDT/FUSE from James.
        + variable init fix from Jay.
        + fabrics fixes from Ming, Sagi, and Wei.
        + various fixes"

c0acf12a50 block: shrink bio size again
The recent ops split grew the bio by adding the new ioprio field.
Shrink it again by using a 16-bit field for the bi_flags value and
filling the holes near the beginning of the structure.

0781e79eb2 block: move two bvec structure into bvec.h
This patch moves 'struct bio_vec' and 'struct bvec_iter'
into 'include/linux/bvec.h', then always include this header
into 'include/linux/blk_types.h'.

With this change, both 'struct bvec_iter' and bvec iterator
helpers don't depend on CONFIG_BLOCK any more, then we can
use bvec iterator to implement iterate_bvec(): lib/iov_iter.c.

4e1b2d52a8 block, fs, drivers: remove REQ_OP compat defs and related code
This patch drops the compat definition of req_op where it matches
the rq_flag_bits definitions, and drops the related old and compat
code that allowed users to set either the op or flags for the operation.

We also then store the operation in the bi_rw/cmd_flags field similar
to how we used to store the bio ioprio where it sat in the upper bits
of the field.

f21508211d block: add REQ_OP definitions and helpers
The following patches separate the operation (WRITE, READ, DISCARD,
etc) from the rq_flag_bits flags. This patch adds definitions for
request/bio operations (REQ_OPs) and adds request/bio accessors to
get/set the op.

In this patch the REQ_OPs match the REQ rq_flag_bits ones
for compat reasons while all the code is converted to use the
op accessors in the set. In the last patches the op will become a
number and the accessors and helpers in this patch will be dropped
or updated.

e31fb9e005 Merge branch 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs
Pull ext3 removal, quota & udf fixes from Jan Kara:
 "The biggest change in the pull is the removal of ext3 filesystem
  driver (~28k lines removed).  Ext4 driver is a full featured
  replacement these days and both RH and SUSE use it for several years
  without issues.  Also there are some workarounds in VM & block layer
  mainly for ext3 which we could eventually get rid of.

  Other larger change is addition of proper error handling for
  dquot_initialize().  The rest is small fixes and cleanups"

[ I wasn't convinced about the ext3 removal and worried about things
  falling through the cracks for legacy users, but ext4 maintainers
  piped up and were all unanimously in favor of removal, and maintaining
  all legacy ext3 support inside ext4.   - Linus ]

2c68f6dc6e block: shrink struct bio down to 2 cache lines again
Commit bcf2843b3f8f added ->bi_error to cleanup the error passing
for struct bio, but that ended up adding 4 bytes and a 4 byte hole
to the size of struct bio. For a clean config, that bumped it from
128 bytes, to 136 bytes, on x86-64.

The ->bi_flags member is currently an unsigned long, but it fits
easily within an int. Change it to an unsigned int, adjust the
the pool offset code, and move ->bi_error into the new hole. Then
we end up with a 128 byte bio again.

Change the bio flag set/clear to use cmpxchg to ensure we don't
lose any flags when manipulating them.
