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.

The original comment says:
q->sysfs_lock must be held to provide mutual exclusion between

Which is simply wrong. elevator_init_mq() is only called from
blk_mq_init_allocated_queue, which is always called before the request
queue is registered via blk_register_queue(), for dm-rq or normal rq
based driver. However, queue's kobject is only exposed and added to sysfs
in blk_register_queue(). So there isn't such race between elevator_switch()
and elevator_init_mq().
So avoid to hold q->sysfs_lock in elevator_init_mq().

There's an inherent mismatch between memcg and writeback. The former
trackes ownership per-page while the latter per-inode. This was a
deliberate design decision because honoring per-page ownership in the
writeback path is complicated, may lead to higher CPU and IO overheads
and deemed unnecessary given that write-sharing an inode across
different cgroups isn't a common use-case.
Combined with inode majority-writer ownership switching, this works
well enough in most cases but there are some pathological cases. For
example, let's say there are two cgroups A and B which keep writing to
different but confined parts of the same inode. B owns the inode and
A's memory is limited far below B's. A's dirty ratio can rise enough
to trigger balance_dirty_pages() sleeps but B's can be low enough to
avoid triggering background writeback. A will be slowed down without
a way to make writeback of the dirty pages happen.
This patch implements foreign dirty recording and foreign mechanism so
that when a memcg encounters a condition as above it can trigger
flushes on bdi_writebacks which can clean its pages. Please see the
comment on top of mem_cgroup_track_foreign_dirty_slowpath() for
details.

nbd: add multi-connection support
that limited the number of devices to 256. Before the patch we could
create 1000s of devices, but the patch switched us from using our
own thread to using a work queue which has a default limit of 256
active works.
The problem is that our recv_work function sits in a loop until
disconnection but only handles IO for one connection. The work is
started when the connection is started/restarted, but if we end up
creating 257 or more connections, the queue_work call just queues
connection257+'s recv_work and that waits for connection 1 - 256's
recv_work to be disconnected and that work instance completing.
Instead of reverting back to kthreads, this has us allocate a
workqueue_struct per device, so we can block in the work.

nbd: allow block mq to deal with timeouts
where before the patch userspace would set the timeout to 0 to disable

then results in IO errors being sent to the application.
To fix this, the patch still uses the common block layer timeout
framework, but if zero is set, nbd just logs a message and then resets
the timer when it expires.

As inode wb switching may make sync(2) miss some inodes, they're
synchronized using wb_switch_rwsem so that no wb switching happens
while sync(2) is in progress. In addition to synchronizing the actual
switching, the rwsem is also used to prevent queueing new switch
attempts while sync(2) is in progress. This is to avoid queueing too
many instances while the rwsem is held by sync(2). Unfortunately,
this is too agressive and can block wb switching for a long time if
sync(2) is frequent.
The goal is avoiding expolding the number of scheduled switches, not
avoiding scheduling anything. Let's use wb_switch_rwsem only for
synchronizing the actual switching and sync(2) and use
isw_nr_in_flight instead for limiting the maximum number of scheduled
switches. The limit is set to 1024 which should be more than enough
while still avoiding extreme situations.

WB_FRN_TIME_CUT_DIV is used to tell the foreign inode detection logic
to ignore short writeback rounds to prevent getting confused by a
burst of short writebacks. The parameter is currently 2 meaning that
anything smaller than half of the running average writback duration
will be ignored.
This is unnecessarily aggressive. The detection logic uses 16 history
slots and is already reasonably protected against some short bursts
confusing it and the current parameter can lead to tens of seconds of
missed detection depending on the writeback pattern.
Let's change the parameter to 8, so that it only ignores writeback
with are smaller than 12.5% of the current running average.
v2: Add comment explaining what's going on with the foreign detection
parameters.

psi tracks the time tasks wait for refaulting pages to become
uptodate, but it does not track the time spent submitting the IO. The
submission part can be significant if backing storage is contended or
when cgroup throttling (io.latency) is in effect - a lot of time is
spent in submit_bio(). In that case, we underreport memory pressure.
Annotate submit_bio() to account submission time as memory stall when
the bio is reading userspace workingset pages.

Enabling Direct I/O with loop devices helps reducing memory usage by
avoiding double caching. 32 bit applications running on 64 bits systems
are currently not able to request direct I/O because is missing from the
lo_compat_ioctl.
This patch fixes the compatibility issue mentioned above by exporting
LOOP_SET_DIRECT_IO as additional lo_compat_ioctl() entry.
The input argument for this ioctl is a single long converted to a 1-bit
boolean, so compatibility is preserved.

Pull MD changes from Song.
* 'md-next' of https://github.com/liu-song-6/linux:
raid1: factor out a common routine to handle the completion of sync write
md: don't call spare_active in md_reap_sync_thread if all member devices can't work
md: don't set In_sync if array is frozen
md: allow last device to be forcibly removed from RAID1/RAID10.
md: Convert to use int_pow()
md/raid10: end bio when the device faulty
md/raid1: end bio when the device faulty
md/raid6: Set R5_ReadError when there is read failure on parity disk
raid1: use an int as the return value of raise_barrier()
When add one disk to array, the md_reap_sync_thread is responsible
to activate the spare and set In_sync flag for the new member in
spare_active().
But if raid1 has one member disk A, and disk B is added to the array.
Then we offline A before all the datas are synchronized from A to B,
obviously B doesn't have the latest data as A, but B is still marked
with In_sync flag.
So let's not call spare_active under the condition, otherwise B is
still showed with 'U' state which is not correct.

When a disk is added to array, the following path is called in mdadm.
Manage_subdevs -> sysfs_freeze_array
-> Manage_add
-> sysfs_set_str(&info, NULL, "sync_action","idle")
Then from kernel side, Manage_add invokes the path (add_new_disk ->
validate_super = super_1_validate) to set In_sync flag.
Since In_sync means "device is in_sync with rest of array", and the new
added disk need to resync thread to help the synchronization of data.
And md_reap_sync_thread would call spare_active to set In_sync for the
new added disk finally. So don't set In_sync if array is in frozen.

When the 'last' device in a RAID1 or RAID10 reports an error,
we do not mark it as failed. This would serve little purpose
as there is no risk of losing data beyond that which is obviously
lost (as there is with RAID5), and there could be other sectors
on the device which are readable, and only readable from this device.
This in general this maximises access to data.
However the current implementation also stops an admin from removing
the last device by direct action. This is rarely useful, but in many
case is not harmful and can make automation easier by removing special
cases.
Also, if an attempt to write metadata fails the device must be marked
as faulty, else an infinite loop will result, attempting to update
the metadata on all non-faulty devices.
So add 'fail_last_dev' member to 'struct mddev', then we can bypasses
the 'last disk' checks for RAID1 and RAID10, and control the behavior
per array by change sysfs node.

Just like raid1, we do not queue write error bio to retry write

When write bio return error, it would be added to conf->retry_list
and wait for raid1d thread to retry write and acknowledge badblocks.
In narrow_write_error(), the error bio will be split in the unit of
badblock shift (such as one sector) and raid1d thread issues them
one by one. Until all of the splited bio has finished, raid1d thread
can go on processing other things, which is time consuming.
But, there is a scene for error handling that is not necessary.
When the device has been set faulty, flush_bio_list() may end
bios in pending_bio_list with error status. Since these bios
has not been issued to the device actually, error handlding to
retry write and acknowledge badblocks make no sense.
Even without that scene, when the device is faulty, badblocks info
can not be written out to the device. Thus, we also no need to
handle the error IO.

7471fb77ce ("md/raid6: Fix anomily when recovering a single device in
RAID6.") avoids rereading P when it can be computed from other members.
However, this misses the chance to re-write the right data to P. This
patch sets R5_ReadError if the re-read fails.
Also, when re-read is skipped, we also missed the chance to reset
rdev->read_errors to 0. It can fail the disk when there are many read
errors on P member disk (other disks don't have read error)
V2: upper layer read request don't read parity/Q data. So there is no
need to consider such situation.
