The Concurrent Positioning Ranges VPD page (for SCSI) and data log page
(for ATA) contain parameters describing the set of contiguous LBAs that
can be served independently by a single LUN multi-actuator hard-disk.
Similarly, a logically defined block device composed of multiple disks
can in some cases execute requests directed at different sector ranges
in parallel. A dm-linear device aggregating 2 block devices together is
an example.
This patch implements support for exposing a block device independent
access ranges to the user through sysfs to allow optimizing device
accesses to increase performance.
To describe the set of independent sector ranges of a device (actuators
of a multi-actuator HDDs or table entries of a dm-linear device),
The type struct blk_independent_access_ranges is introduced. This
structure describes the sector ranges using an array of
struct blk_independent_access_range structures. This range structure
defines the start sector and number of sectors of the access range.
The ranges in the array cannot overlap and must contain all sectors
within the device capacity.
The function disk_set_independent_access_ranges() allows a device
driver to signal to the block layer that a device has multiple
independent access ranges. In this case, a struct
blk_independent_access_ranges is attached to the device request queue
by the function disk_set_independent_access_ranges(). The function
disk_alloc_independent_access_ranges() is provided for drivers to
allocate this structure.
struct blk_independent_access_ranges contains kobjects (struct kobject)
to expose to the user through sysfs the set of independent access ranges
supported by a device. When the device is initialized, sysfs
registration of the ranges information is done from blk_register_queue()
using the block layer internal function
disk_register_independent_access_ranges(). If a driver calls
disk_set_independent_access_ranges() for a registered queue, e.g. when a
device is revalidated, disk_set_independent_access_ranges() will execute
disk_register_independent_access_ranges() to update the sysfs attribute
files. The sysfs file structure created starts from the
independent_access_ranges sub-directory and contains the start sector
and number of sectors of each range, with the information for each range
grouped in numbered sub-directories.
E.g. for a dual actuator HDD, the user sees:
$ tree /sys/block/sdk/queue/independent_access_ranges/
/sys/block/sdk/queue/independent_access_ranges/
|-- 0
| |-- nr_sectors
| `-- sector
`-- 1
|-- nr_sectors
`-- sector
For a regular device with a single access range, the
independent_access_ranges sysfs directory does not exist.
Device revalidation may lead to changes to this structure and to the
attribute values. When manipulated, the queue sysfs_lock and
sysfs_dir_lock mutexes are held for atomicity, similarly to how the
blk-mq and elevator sysfs queue sub-directories are protected.
The code related to the management of independent access ranges is
added in the new file block/blk-ia-ranges.c.

Per ZBC and ZAC specifications, host-managed SMR hard-disks mandate that
all writes into sequential write required zones be aligned to the device
physical block size. However, NVMe ZNS does not have this constraint and
allows write operations into sequential zones to be aligned to the
device logical block size. This inconsistency does not help with
software portability across device types.
To solve this, introduce the zone_write_granularity queue limit to
indicate the alignment constraint, in bytes, of write operations into
zones of a zoned block device. This new limit is exported as a
read-only sysfs queue attribute and the helper
blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() introduced for drivers to set this
limit.
The function blk_queue_set_zoned() is modified to set this new limit to
the device logical block size by default. NVMe ZNS devices as well as
zoned nullb devices use this default value as is. The scsi disk driver
is modified to execute the blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() helper to
set the zone write granularity of host-managed SMR disks to the disk
physical block size.
The accessor functions queue_zone_write_granularity() and
bdev_zone_write_granularity() are also introduced.

We were only creating the request_queue debugfs_dir only
for make_request block drivers (multiqueue), but never for
request-based block drivers. We did this as we were only
creating non-blktrace additional debugfs files on that directory
for make_request drivers. However, since blktrace *always* creates
that directory anyway, we special-case the use of that directory
on blktrace. Other than this being an eye-sore, this exposes
request-based block drivers to the same debugfs fragile
race that used to exist with make_request block drivers
where if we start adding files onto that directory we can later
run a race with a double removal of dentries on the directory
if we don't deal with this carefully on blktrace.
Instead, just simplify things by always creating the request_queue
debugfs_dir on request_queue registration. Rename the mutex also to
reflect the fact that this is used outside of the blktrace context.

Commit dc9edc44de ("block: Fix a blk_exit_rl() regression") merged on
v4.12 moved the work behind blk_release_queue() into a workqueue after a
splat floated around which indicated some work on blk_release_queue()
could sleep in blk_exit_rl(). This splat would be possible when a driver
called blk_put_queue() or blk_cleanup_queue() (which calls blk_put_queue()
as its final call) from an atomic context.
blk_put_queue() decrements the refcount for the request_queue kobject, and
upon reaching 0 blk_release_queue() is called. Although blk_exit_rl() is
now removed through commit db6d995235 ("block: remove request_list code")
on v5.0, we reserve the right to be able to sleep within
blk_release_queue() context.
The last reference for the request_queue must not be called from atomic
context. *When* the last reference to the request_queue reaches 0 varies,
and so let's take the opportunity to document when that is expected to
happen and also document the context of the related calls as best as
possible so we can avoid future issues, and with the hopes that the
synchronous request_queue removal sticks.
We revert back to synchronous request_queue removal because asynchronous
removal creates a regression with expected userspace interaction with
several drivers. An example is when removing the loopback driver, one
uses ioctls from userspace to do so, but upon return and if successful,
one expects the device to be removed. Likewise if one races to add another
device the new one may not be added as it is still being removed. This was
expected behavior before and it now fails as the device is still present
and busy still. Moving to asynchronous request_queue removal could have
broken many scripts which relied on the removal to have been completed if
there was no error. Document this expectation as well so that this
doesn't regress userspace again.
Using asynchronous request_queue removal however has helped us find
other bugs. In the future we can test what could break with this
arrangement by enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE.
While at it, update the docs with the context expectations for the
request_queue / gendisk refcount decrement, and make these
expectations explicit by using might_sleep().

Define REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND to append-write sectors to a zone of a zoned
block device. This is a no-merge write operation.
A zone append write BIO must:
* Target a zoned block device
* Have a sector position indicating the start sector of the target zone
* The target zone must be a sequential write zone
* The BIO must not cross a zone boundary
* The BIO size must not be split to ensure that a single range of LBAs
is written with a single command.
Implement these checks in generic_make_request_checks() using the
helper function blk_check_zone_append(). To avoid write append BIO
splitting, introduce the new max_zone_append_sectors queue limit
attribute and ensure that a BIO size is always lower than this limit.
Export this new limit through sysfs and check these limits in bio_full().
Also when a LLDD can't dispatch a request to a specific zone, it
will return BLK_STS_ZONE_RESOURCE indicating this request needs to
be delayed, e.g. because the zone it will be dispatched to is still
write-locked. If this happens set the request aside in a local list
to continue trying dispatching requests such as READ requests or a
WRITE/ZONE_APPEND requests targetting other zones. This way we can
still keep a high queue depth without starving other requests even if
one request can't be served due to zone write-locking.
Finally, make sure that the bio sector position indicates the actual
write position as indicated by the device on completion.

cecf5d87ff ("block: split .sysfs_lock into two locks") starts to
release & acquire sysfs_lock before registering/un-registering elevator
queue during switching elevator for avoiding potential deadlock from
showing & storing 'queue/iosched' attributes and removing elevator's
kobject.
Turns out there isn't such deadlock because 'q->sysfs_lock' isn't
required in .show & .store of queue/iosched's attributes, and just
elevator's sysfs lock is acquired in elv_iosched_store() and
elv_iosched_show(). So it is safe to hold queue's sysfs lock when
registering/un-registering elevator queue.
The biggest issue is that commit cecf5d87ff assumes that concurrent
write on 'queue/scheduler' can't happen. However, this assumption isn't
true, because kernfs_fop_write() only guarantees that concurrent write
aren't called on the same open file, but the write could be from
different open on the file. So we can't release & re-acquire queue's
sysfs lock during switching elevator, otherwise use-after-free on
elevator could be triggered.
Fixes the issue by not releasing queue's sysfs lock during switching
elevator.

Fixes this issue by checking 'q->elevator' directly & locklessly after
q->kobj is removed in blk_unregister_queue(), this way is safe because
q->elevator can't be changed at that time.

The kernfs built-in lock of 'kn->count' is held in sysfs .show/.store
path. Meantime, inside block's .show/.store callback, q->sysfs_lock is
required.
However, when mq & iosched kobjects are removed via
blk_mq_unregister_dev() & elv_unregister_queue(), q->sysfs_lock is held
too. This way causes AB-BA lock because the kernfs built-in lock of
'kn-count' is required inside kobject_del() too, see the lockdep warning[1].
On the other hand, it isn't necessary to acquire q->sysfs_lock for
both blk_mq_unregister_dev() & elv_unregister_queue() because
clearing REGISTERED flag prevents storing to 'queue/scheduler'
from being happened. Also sysfs write(store) is exclusive, so no
necessary to hold the lock for elv_unregister_queue() when it is
called in switching elevator path.
So split .sysfs_lock into two: one is still named as .sysfs_lock for
covering sync .store, the other one is named as .sysfs_dir_lock
for covering kobjects and related status change.
sysfs itself can handle the race between add/remove kobjects and
showing/storing attributes under kobjects. For switching scheduler
via storing to 'queue/scheduler', we use the queue flag of
QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED with .sysfs_lock for avoiding the race, then
we can avoid to hold .sysfs_lock during removing/adding kobjects.

In theory, IO scheduler belongs to request queue, and the request pool
of sched tags belongs to the request queue too.
However, the current tags allocation interfaces are re-used for both
driver tags and sched tags, and driver tags is definitely host wide,
and doesn't belong to any request queue, same with its request pool.
So we need tagset instance for freeing request of sched tags.
Meantime, blk_mq_free_tag_set() often follows blk_cleanup_queue() in case
of non-BLK_MQ_F_TAG_SHARED, this way requires that request pool of sched
tags to be freed before calling blk_mq_free_tag_set().
Commit 47cdee29ef ("block: move blk_exit_queue into __blk_release_queue")
moves blk_exit_queue into __blk_release_queue for simplying the fast
path in generic_make_request(), then causes oops during freeing requests
of sched tags in __blk_release_queue().
Fix the above issue by move freeing request pool of sched tags into
blk_cleanup_queue(), this way is safe becasue queue has been frozen and no any
in-queue requests at that time. Freeing sched tags has to be kept in queue's
release handler becasue there might be un-completed dispatch activity
which might refer to sched tags.

Drivers exposing zoned block devices have to initialize and maintain
correctness (i.e. revalidate) of the device zone bitmaps attached to
the device request queue (seq_zones_bitmap and seq_zones_wlock).
To simplify coding this, introduce a generic helper function
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() suitable for most (and likely all) cases.
This new function always update the seq_zones_bitmap and seq_zones_wlock
bitmaps as well as the queue nr_zones field when called for a disk
using a request based queue. For a disk using a BIO based queue, only
the number of zones is updated since these queues do not have
schedulers and so do not need the zone bitmaps.
With this change, the zone bitmap initialization code in sd_zbc.c can be
replaced with a call to this function in sd_zbc_read_zones(), which is
called from the disk revalidate block operation method.
A call to blk_revalidate_disk_zones() is also added to the null_blk
driver for devices created with the zoned mode enabled.
Finally, to ensure that zoned devices created with dm-linear or
dm-flakey expose the correct number of zones through sysfs, a call to
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() is added to dm_table_set_restrictions().
The zone bitmaps allocated and initialized with
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() are freed automatically from
__blk_release_queue() using the block internal function
blk_queue_free_zone_bitmaps().

Expose through sysfs the nr_zones field of struct request_queue.
Exposing this value helps in debugging disk issues as well as
facilitating scripts based use of the disk (e.g. blktests).
For zoned block devices, the nr_zones field indicates the total number
of zones of the device calculated using the known disk capacity and
zone size. This number of zones is always 0 for regular block devices.
Since nr_zones is defined conditionally with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED,
introduce the blk_queue_nr_zones() function to return the correct value
for any device, regardless if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is set.

disabled. This is clearly suboptimal.
Add a queue quiesce around changing the wbt latency settings from sysfs
to work around this. With that, we can reliably put the enabled check in
our bio_to_wbt_flags(), since we know the WBT_TRACKED flag will be
consistent for the lifetime of the request.

This change is safe because only the SCSI core and the NVME core keep

Neither driver accesses any of the removed data structures between its

Since I can remember DM has forced the block layer to allow the
allocation and initialization of the request_queue to be distinct
operations. Reason for this is block/genhd.c:add_disk() has requires
that the request_queue (and associated bdi) be tied to the gendisk
before add_disk() is called -- because add_disk() also deals with
exposing the request_queue via blk_register_queue().
DM's dynamic creation of arbitrary device types (and associated
request_queue types) requires the DM device's gendisk be available so
that DM table loads can establish a master/slave relationship with
subordinate devices that are referenced by loaded DM tables -- using
bd_link_disk_holder(). But until these DM tables, and their associated
subordinate devices, are known DM cannot know what type of request_queue
it needs -- nor what its queue_limits should be.
This chicken and egg scenario has created all manner of problems for DM
and, at times, the block layer.
Summary of changes:
- Add device_add_disk_no_queue_reg() and add_disk_no_queue_reg() variant
that drivers may use to add a disk without also calling
blk_register_queue(). Driver must call blk_register_queue() once its
request_queue is fully initialized.
- Return early from blk_unregister_queue() if QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED
is not set. It won't be set if driver used add_disk_no_queue_reg()
but driver encounters an error and must del_gendisk() before calling
blk_register_queue().
- Export blk_register_queue().
These changes allow DM to use add_disk_no_queue_reg() to anchor its
gendisk as the "master" for master/slave relationships DM must establish
with subordinate devices referenced in DM tables that get loaded. Once
all "slave" devices for a DM device are known its request_queue can be
properly initialized and then advertised via sysfs -- important
improvement being that no request_queue resource initialization
performed by blk_register_queue() is missed for DM devices anymore.

The original commit e9a823fb34 (block: fix warning when I/O elevator
is changed as request_queue is being removed) is pretty conflated.
"conflated" because the resource being protected by q->sysfs_lock isn't
the queue_flags (it is the 'queue' kobj).
q->sysfs_lock serializes __elevator_change() (via elv_iosched_store)
from racing with blk_unregister_queue():
1) By holding q->sysfs_lock first, __elevator_change() can complete
before a racing blk_unregister_queue().
2) Conversely, __elevator_change() is testing for QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED
in case elv_iosched_store() loses the race with blk_unregister_queue(),
it needs a way to know the 'queue' kobj isn't there.
Expand the scope of blk_unregister_queue()'s q->sysfs_lock use so it is
held until after the 'queue' kobj is removed.
To do so blk_mq_unregister_dev() must not also take q->sysfs_lock. So
rename __blk_mq_unregister_dev() to blk_mq_unregister_dev().
Also, blk_unregister_queue() should use q->queue_lock to protect against
any concurrent writes to q->queue_flags -- even though chances are the
queue is being cleaned up so no concurrent writes are likely.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

There is a race between changing I/O elevator and request_queue removal
which can trigger the warning in kobject_add_internal. A program can
use sysfs to request a change of elevator at the same time another task
is unregistering the request_queue the elevator would be attached to.
The elevator's kobject will then attempt to be connected to the
request_queue in the object tree when the request_queue has just been
removed from sysfs. This triggers the warning in kobject_add_internal
as the request_queue no longer has a sysfs directory:
kobject_add_internal failed for iosched (error: -2 parent: queue)
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 14075 at lib/kobject.c:244 kobject_add_internal+0x103/0x2d0
To fix this warning, we can check the QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED flag when
changing the elevator and use the request_queue's sysfs_lock to
serialize between clearing the flag and the elevator testing the flag.

Originally, I tied debugfs registration/unregistration together with
sysfs. There's no reason to do this, and it's getting in the way of
letting schedulers define their own debugfs attributes. Instead, tie the
debugfs registration to the lifetime of the structures themselves.
The saner lifetimes mean we can also get rid of the extra mq directory
and move everything one level up. I.e., nvme0n1/mq/hctx0/tags is now

throtl_slice is important for blk-throttling. It's called slice
internally but it really is a time window blk-throttling samples data.
blk-throttling will make decision based on the samplings. An example is
bandwidth measurement. A cgroup's bandwidth is measured in the time
interval of throtl_slice.
A small throtl_slice meanse cgroups have smoother throughput but burn
more CPUs. It has 100ms default value, which is not appropriate for all
disks. A fast SSD can dispatch a lot of IOs in 100ms. This patch makes
it tunable.

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.

right before cfq_registered_queue() is called, another process executes
elevator_switch() and replaces q->elevator with deadline scheduler. When

We ran into a funky issue, where someone doing 256K buffered reads saw
128K requests at the device level. Turns out it is read-ahead capping
the request size, since we use 128K as the default setting. This
doesn't make a lot of sense - if someone is issuing 256K reads, they
should see 256K reads, regardless of the read-ahead setting, if the
underlying device can support a 256K read in a single command.
This patch introduces a bdi hint, io_pages. This is the soft max IO
size for the lower level, I've hooked it up to the bdev settings here.
Read-ahead is modified to issue the maximum of the user request size,
and the read-ahead max size, but capped to the max request size on the
device side. The latter is done to avoid reading ahead too much, if the
application asks for a huge read. With this patch, the kernel behaves
like the application expects.

This adds a new block layer operation to zero out a range of
LBAs. This allows to implement zeroing for devices that don't use
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.

Currently there's no way to enable wbt if it's not enabled in the
kernel config by default for a device. Allow a write to the
'wbt_lat_usec' queue sysfs file to enable wbt.
This is useful for both the kernel config case, but also if the
device is CFQ managed and it was turned off by default.

Allow a write of '-1' to reset the default latency target for
a given device. This removes knowledge of the different default
settings for rotational vs non-rotational from user space.

The previous commit introduced the hybrid sleep/poll mode. Take
that one step further, and use the completion latencies to
automatically sleep for half the mean completion time. This is
a good approximation.
This changes the 'io_poll_delay' sysfs file a bit to expose the
various options. Depending on the value, the polling code will
behave differently:
-1 Never enter hybrid sleep mode
0 Use half of the completion mean for the sleep delay
>0 Use this specific value as the sleep delay

This patch enables a hybrid polling mode. Instead of polling after IO
submission, we can induce an artificial delay, and then poll after that.
For example, if the IO is presumed to complete in 8 usecs from now, we
can sleep for 4 usecs, wake up, and then do our polling. This still puts
a sleep/wakeup cycle in the IO path, but instead of the wakeup happening
after the IO has completed, it'll happen before. With this hybrid
scheme, we can achieve big latency reductions while still using the same
(or less) amount of CPU.

Again a leftover from when the throttling code was generic. Now that we
just have the block user, get rid of the stat ops and indirections.

Enable throttling of buffered writeback to make it a lot
more smooth, and has way less impact on other system activity.
Background writeback should be, by definition, background
activity. The fact that we flush huge bundles of it at the time
means that it potentially has heavy impacts on foreground workloads,
which isn't ideal. We can't easily limit the sizes of writes that
we do, since that would impact file system layout in the presence
of delayed allocation. So just throttle back buffered writeback,
unless someone is waiting for it.
The algorithm for when to throttle takes its inspiration in the
CoDel networking scheduling algorithm. Like CoDel, blk-wb monitors
the minimum latencies of requests over a window of time. In that
window of time, if the minimum latency of any request exceeds a
given target, then a scale count is incremented and the queue depth
is shrunk. The next monitoring window is shrunk accordingly. Unlike
CoDel, if we hit a window that exhibits good behavior, then we
simply increment the scale count and re-calculate the limits for that
scale value. This prevents us from oscillating between a
close-to-ideal value and max all the time, instead remaining in the
windows where we get good behavior.
Unlike CoDel, blk-wb allows the scale count to to negative. This
happens if we primarily have writes going on. Unlike positive
scale counts, this doesn't change the size of the monitoring window.
When the heavy writers finish, blk-bw quickly snaps back to it's
stable state of a zero scale count.
The patch registers a sysfs entry, 'wb_lat_usec'. This sets the latency
target to me met. It defaults to 2 msec for non-rotational storage, and
75 msec for rotational storage. Setting this value to '0' disables
blk-wb. Generally, a user would not have to touch this setting.
We don't enable WBT on devices that are managed with CFQ, and have
a non-root block cgroup attached. If we have a proportional share setup
on this particular disk, then the wbt throttling will interfere with
that. We don't have a strong need for wbt for that case, since we will
rely on CFQ doing that for us.
