Ming Lei c1e2b8422b block: fix double account of flush request's driver tag
In case of none scheduler, we share data request's driver tag for
flush request, so have to mark the flush request as INFLIGHT for
avoiding double account of this driver tag.

Yufen Yu b5718d6c00 block: defer flush request no matter whether we have elevator
Commit 7520872c0c ("block: don't defer flushes on blk-mq + scheduling")
tried to fix deadlock for cycled wait between flush requests and data
request into flush_data_in_flight. The former holded all driver tags
and wait for data request completion, but the latter can not complete
for waiting free driver tags.

After commit 923218f616 ("blk-mq: don't allocate driver tag upfront
for flush rq"), flush requests will not get driver tag before queuing
into flush queue.

* With elevator, flush request just get sched_tags before inserting
  flush queue. It will not get driver tag until issue them to driver.
  data request on list fq->flush_data_in_flight will complete in
  the end.

* Without elevator, each flush request will get a driver tag when
  allocate request. Then data request on fq->flush_data_in_flight
  don't worry about lacking driver tag.

In both of these cases, cycled wait cannot be true. So we may allow
to defer flush request.

Ming Lei 36a3df5a45 blk-mq: put driver tag when this request is completed
It is natural to release driver tag when this request is completed by
LLD or device since its purpose is for LLD use.

One big benefit is that the released tag can be re-used quicker since
bio_endio() may take too long.

Meantime we don't need to release driver tag for flush request.

Ming Lei 01e99aeca3 blk-mq: insert passthrough request into hctx->dispatch directly
For some reason, device may be in one situation which can't handle
FS request, so STS_RESOURCE is always returned and the FS request
will be added to hctx->dispatch. However passthrough request may
be required at that time for fixing the problem. If passthrough
request is added to scheduler queue, there isn't any chance for
blk-mq to dispatch it given we prioritize requests in hctx->dispatch.
Then the FS IO request may never be completed, and IO hang is caused.

So passthrough request has to be added to hctx->dispatch directly
for fixing the IO hang.

Fix this issue by inserting passthrough request into hctx->dispatch
directly together withing adding FS request to the tail of
hctx->dispatch in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(). Actually we add FS request
to tail of hctx->dispatch at default, see blk_mq_request_bypass_insert().

Then it becomes consistent with original legacy IO request
path, in which passthrough request is always added to q->queue_head.

Konstantin Khlebnikov b686631865 block: add iostat counters for flush requests
Requests that triggers flushing volatile writeback cache to disk (barriers)
have significant effect to overall performance.

Block layer has sophisticated engine for combining several flush requests
into one. But there is no statistics for actual flushes executed by disk.
Requests which trigger flushes usually are barriers - zero-size writes.

This patch adds two iostat counters into /sys/class/block/$dev/stat and
/proc/diskstats - count of completed flush requests and their total time.

The bug is caused by the race between timeout handle and completion for
flush request.

When timeout handle function blk_mq_rq_timed_out() try to read
'req->q->mq_ops', the 'req' have completed and reinitiated by next
flush request, which would call blk_rq_init() to clear 'req' as 0.

After commit 12f5b93145 ("blk-mq: Remove generation seqeunce"),
normal requests lifetime are protected by refcount. Until 'rq->ref'
drop to zero, the request can really be free. Thus, these requests
cannot been reused before timeout handle finish.

However, flush request has defined .end_io and rq->end_io() is still
called even if 'rq->ref' doesn't drop to zero. After that, the 'flush_rq'
can be reused by the next flush request handle, resulting in null
pointer deference BUG ON.

We fix this problem by covering flush request with 'rq->ref'.
If the refcount is not zero, flush_end_io() return and wait the
last holder recall it. To record the request status, we add a new
entry 'rq_status', which will be used in flush_end_io().

Ming Lei 923218f616 blk-mq: don't allocate driver tag upfront for flush rq
The idea behind it is simple:

1) for none scheduler, driver tag has to be borrowed for flush rq,
   otherwise we may run out of tag, and that causes an IO hang. And
   get/put driver tag is actually noop for none, so reordering tags
   isn't necessary at all.

2) for a real I/O scheduler, we need not allocate a driver tag upfront
   for flush rq. It works just fine to follow the same approach as
   normal requests: allocate driver tag for each rq just before calling
   ->queue_rq().

One driver visible change is that the driver tag isn't shared in the
flush request sequence. That won't be a problem, since we always do that
in legacy path.

Then flush rq need not be treated specially wrt. get/put driver tag.
This cleans up the code - for instance, reorder_tags_to_front() can be
removed, and we needn't worry about request ordering in dispatch list
for avoiding I/O deadlock.

Also we have to put the driver tag before requeueing.

Ming Lei 9c71c83c85 blk-flush: don't run queue for requests bypassing flush
blk_insert_flush() should only insert request since run queue always
follows it.

In case of bypassing flush, we don't need to run queue because every
blk_insert_flush() follows one run queue.

Christoph Hellwig 74d46992e0 block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O.  The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open.  Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device.  But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

Christoph Hellwig 2a842acab1 block: introduce new block status code type
Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.

For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.

blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

Jens Axboe 7520872c0c block: don't defer flushes on blk-mq + scheduling
For blk-mq with scheduling, we can potentially end up with ALL
driver tags assigned and sitting on the flush queues. If we
defer because of an inlfight data request, then we can deadlock
if that data request doesn't already have a tag assigned.

This fixes a deadlock with running the xfs/297 xfstest, where
thousands of syncs can cause the drive queue to stall.

Christoph Hellwig aebf526b53 block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ space
Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it
all into the operations.  The little caveat here is that previously
cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op

operations.

Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

This adds a set of hooks that intercepts the blk-mq path of
allocating/inserting/issuing/completing requests, allowing
us to develop a scheduler within that framework.

We reuse the existing elevator scheduler API on the registration
side, but augment that with the scheduler flagging support for
the blk-mq interfce, and with a separate set of ops hooks for MQ
devices.

We split driver and scheduler tags, so we can run the scheduling
independently of device queue depth.

Linus Torvalds 36869cb93d Merge branch 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
  release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
  always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
  reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
  probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
  for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.

  The major parts of this pull request is:

   - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
     private implementation instead of using the pig that is
     fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.

   - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
     by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
     writeback queue throttling code.

   - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
     that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.

   - Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
     side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
     scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.

   - Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
     and Shaun.

   - Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.

   - Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
     which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
     Christoph.

   - A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
     stopping and starting in blk-mq.

   - Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.

   - Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.

   - Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart.

   - A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name
     here"

Christoph Hellwig 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.

A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of

This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for

also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields
from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for
struct request.
