mq (where it's called mq-deadline). (me).
- blktrace race fix, oopsing on sg load (me).
- blk-mq optimizations (me).
- Obscure waitqueue race fix for kyber (Omar).

(Luca Miccio).
- Series from Ming that enable us to treat flush requests on blk-mq
like any other request. This is a really nice cleanup.
- Series from Ming that improves merging on blk-mq with schedulers,
getting us closer to flipping the switch on scsi-mq again.

struct call_single_data is used in IPIs to transfer information between
CPUs. Its size is bigger than sizeof(unsigned long) and less than
cache line size. Currently it is not allocated with any explicit alignment
requirements. This makes it possible for allocated call_single_data to
cross two cache lines, which results in double the number of the cache lines
that need to be transferred among CPUs.
This can be fixed by requiring call_single_data to be aligned with the
size of call_single_data. Currently the size of call_single_data is the
power of 2. If we add new fields to call_single_data, we may need to
add padding to make sure the size of new definition is the power of 2
as well.
Fortunately, this is enforced by GCC, which will report bad sizes.
To set alignment requirements of call_single_data to the size of
call_single_data, a struct definition and a typedef is used.
To test the effect of the patch, I used the vm-scalability multiple
thread swap test case (swap-w-seq-mt). The test will create multiple
threads and each thread will eat memory until all RAM and part of swap
is used, so that huge number of IPIs are triggered when unmapping
memory. In the test, the throughput of memory writing improves ~5%
compared with misaligned call_single_data, because of faster IPIs.

Sometime disk could have tracks broken and data there is inaccessable,
but data in other parts can be accessed in normal way. MD RAID supports
such disks. But we don't have a good way to test it, because we can't
control which part of a physical disk is bad. For a virtual disk, this
can be easily controlled.
This patch adds a new 'badblock' attribute. Configure it in this way:
echo "+1-100" > xxx/badblock, this will make sector [1-100] as bad
blocks.
echo "-20-30" > xxx/badblock, this will make sector [20-30] good
If badblocks are accessed, the nullb disk will return IO error. Other
parts of the disk can accessed in normal way.

Software must flush disk cache to guarantee data safety. To check if
software correctly does disk cache flush, we must know the behavior of
disk. But physical disk behavior is uncontrollable. Even software
doesn't do the flush, the disk probably does the flush. This patch tries
to emulate a cache in the test disk.
All write will go to a cache first, when the cache is full, we then
flush some data to disk storage. A flush request will flush all data of
the cache to disk storage. A FUA write will write to memory store
directly and revalidate data in cache. If there is a power failure (by
writing to power attribute, 'echo 0 > disk_name/power'), we discard all
data in the cache, but preserve the data in disk storage. Later we can
power on the disk again as usual (write 1 to 'power' attribute), then we
can check data integrity and very if software does everything correctly.
A new attribute 'cache_size' (in MB) is added to configure cache size.

In test, we usually expect controllable disk speed. For example, in a
raid array, we'd like some disks are fast and some are slow. MD RAID
actually has a feature for this. To test the feature, we'd like to make
the disk run in specific speed.
block throttling probably can be used for this purpose, but it requires
cgroup setup. Here we just implement a simple throttling mechanism in
the driver. There is slight fluctuation in the mechanism, but it's good
enough for test.
To configure the bandwidth cap, user sets the 'mbps' attribute. mbps is
MB/s.

The device created in nullb configfs interface isn't power on by
default. After user configures the device, user can do 'echo 1 >
xxx/nullb/device_name/power' to power on the device, which will create a
disk. the xxx/nullb/device_name/index is the disk index, so if the index
is 2, the new created disk should be named as /dev/nullb2. Note, the
'index' is only valid after disk is power on.
'echo 0 > xxx/nullb/device_name/power' will remove the disk. Note, this
doesn't remove the device. To remove the device, user should do 'rmdir

Add configfs interface for nullb. configfs interface is more flexible
and easy to configure in a per-disk basis.
Configuration is something like this:
mount -t configfs none /mnt
Checking which features the driver supports:
cat /mnt/nullb/features
The 'features' attribute is for future extension. We probably will add
new features into the driver, userspace can check this attribute to find
the supported features.
Create/remove a device:
mkdir/rmdir /mnt/nullb/a
Then configure the device by setting attributes under /mnt/nullb/a, most
of nullb supported module parameters are converted to attributes:
size; /* device size in MB */
completion_nsec; /* time in ns to complete a request */
submit_queues; /* number of submission queues */
home_node; /* home node for the device */
queue_mode; /* block interface */
blocksize; /* block size */
irqmode; /* IRQ completion handler */
hw_queue_depth; /* queue depth */
use_lightnvm; /* register as a LightNVM device */
blocking; /* blocking blk-mq device */
use_per_node_hctx; /* use per-node allocation for hardware context */
Note, creating a device doesn't create a disk immediately. Creating a
disk is done in two phases: create a device and then power on the
device. Next patch will introduce device power on.

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.

LightNVM compatible device drivers does not have a method to expose
LightNVM specific sysfs entries.
To enable LightNVM sysfs entries to be exposed, lightnvm device
drivers require a struct device to attach it to. To allow both the
actual device driver and lightnvm sysfs entries to coexist, the device
driver tracks the lifetime of the nvm_dev structure.
This patch refactors NVMe and null_blk to handle the lifetime of struct
nvm_dev, which eliminates the need for struct gendisk when a lightnvm

- A set of bcache stability fixes, which have been acked by Kent.
These have been used and tested for more than a year by the
community, so it's about time that they got in.
- A set of drbd updates from the drbd team (Andreas, Lars, Philipp)
and Markus Elfring, Oleg Drokin.
- A set of fixes for xen blkback/front from the usual suspects, (Bob,
Konrad) as well as community based fixes from Kiri, Julien, and
Peng.
- A 2038 time fix for sx8 from Shraddha, with a fix from me.
- A small mtip32xx cleanup from Zhu Yanjun.
- A null_blk division fix from Arnd"

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
"We don't have a lot of core changes this time around, it's mostly in
drivers, which will come in a subsequent pull.
The cores changes include:
- blk-mq
- Prep patch from Christoph, changing blk_mq_alloc_request() to
take flags instead of just using gfp_t for sleep/nosleep.
- Doc patch from me, clarifying the difference between legacy
and blk-mq for timer usage.
- Fixes from Raghavendra for memory-less numa nodes, and a reuse
of CPU masks.
- Cleanup from Geliang Tang, using offset_in_page() instead of open
coding it.
- From Ilya, rename request_queue slab to it reflects what it holds,
and a fix for proper use of bdgrab/put.
- A real fix for the split across stripe boundaries from Keith. We
yanked a broken version of this from 4.4-rc final, this one works.
- From Mike Krinkin, emit a trace message when we split.
- From Wei Tang, two small cleanups, not explicitly clearing memory
that is already cleared"
* 'for-4.5/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
block: use bd{grab,put}() instead of open-coding
block: split bios to max possible length
block: add call to split trace point
blk-mq: Avoid memoryless numa node encoded in hctx numa_node
blk-mq: Reuse hardware context cpumask for tags
blk-mq: add a flags parameter to blk_mq_alloc_request
Revert "blk-flush: Queue through IO scheduler when flush not required"
block: clarify blk_add_timer() use case for blk-mq
bio: use offset_in_page macro
block: do not initialise statics to 0 or NULL
block: do not initialise globals to 0 or NULL
block: rename request_queue slab cache
Dividing a sector_t number should be done using sector_div rather than do_div
to optimize the 32-bit sector_t case, and with the latest do_div optimizations,
we now get a compile-time warning for this:
arch/arm/include/asm/div64.h:32:95: note: expected 'uint64_t * {aka long long unsigned int *}' but argument is of type 'sector_t * {aka long unsigned int *}'
drivers/block/null_blk.c:521:81: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
This changes the newly added code to use sector_div. It is a simplified version
of the original patch, as Linus Torvalds pointed out that we should not be using
an expensive division function in the first place.
This version was suggested by Matias Bjorling.

Fixes: b2b7e00148 ("null_blk: register as a LightNVM device")
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
To implement sync I/O support within the LightNVM core, the end_io
functions are refactored to take an end_io function pointer instead of
testing for initialized media manager, followed by calling its end_io
function.
Sync I/O can then be implemented using a callback that signal I/O
completion. This is similar to the logic found in blk_to_execute_io().
By implementing it this way, the underlying device I/Os submission logic
is abstracted away from core, targets, and media managers.

If null_blk is run in NULL_IRQ_TIMER mode and with queue_mode NULL_Q_RQ,
we need to restart the queue from the hrtimer interrupt. We can't
directly invoke the request_fn from that context, so punt the queue run
to async kblockd context.
