Christoph Hellwig c2e4cd57cf block: lift setting the readahead size into the block layer
Drivers shouldn't really mess with the readahead size, as that is a VM
concept.  Instead set it based on the optimal I/O size by lifting the
algorithm from the md driver when registering the disk.  Also set
bdi->io_pages there as well by applying the same scheme based on
max_sectors.  To ensure the limits work well for stacking drivers a
new helper is added to update the readahead limits from the block
limits, which is also called from disk_stack_limits.

Mike Snitzer 07d098e6bb block: allow 'chunk_sectors' to be non-power-of-2
It is possible, albeit more unlikely, for a block device to have a non
power-of-2 for chunk_sectors (e.g. 10+2 RAID6 with 128K chunk_sectors,
which results in a full-stripe size of 1280K. This causes the RAID6's
io_opt to be advertised as 1280K, and a stacked device _could_ then be
made to use a blocksize, aka chunk_sectors, that matches non power-of-2
io_opt of underlying RAID6 -- resulting in stacked device's
chunk_sectors being a non power-of-2).

Update blk_queue_chunk_sectors() and blk_max_size_offset() to
accommodate drivers that need a non power-of-2 chunk_sectors.

Mike Snitzer 22ada802ed block: use lcm_not_zero() when stacking chunk_sectors
Like 'io_opt', blk_stack_limits() should stack 'chunk_sectors' using
lcm_not_zero() rather than min_not_zero() -- otherwise the final
'chunk_sectors' could result in sub-optimal alignment of IO to
component devices in the IO stack.

Also, if 'chunk_sectors' isn't a multiple of 'physical_block_size'
then it is a bug in the driver and the device should be flagged as
'misaligned'.

Damien Le Moal 27ba3e8ff3 scsi: sd: sd_zbc: Fix handling of host-aware ZBC disks
When CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is disabled, allow using host-aware ZBC disks as
regular disks. In this case, ensure that command completion is correctly
executed by changing sd_zbc_complete() to return good_bytes instead of 0
and causing a hang during device probe (endless retries).

When CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is enabled and a host-aware disk is detected to
have partitions, it will be used as a regular disk. In this case, make sure
to not do anything in sd_zbc_revalidate_zones() as that triggers warnings.

Since all these different cases result in subtle settings of the disk queue
zoned model, introduce the block layer helper function
blk_queue_set_zoned() to generically implement setting up the effective
zoned model according to the disk type, the presence of partitions on the
disk and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED configuration.

Keith Busch 0512a75b98 block: Introduce REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND
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.

Christoph Hellwig 3d745ea5b0 block: simplify queue allocation
Current make_request based drivers use either blk_alloc_queue_node or
blk_alloc_queue to allocate a queue, and then set up the make_request_fn
function pointer and a few parameters using the blk_queue_make_request
helper.  Simplify this by passing the make_request pointer to
blk_alloc_queue, and while at it merge the _node variant into the main
helper by always passing a node_id, and remove the superfluous gfp_mask
parameter.  A lower-level __blk_alloc_queue is kept for the blk-mq case.

Field bdi->io_pages added in commit 9491ae4aad ("mm: don't cap request

Stacked drivers do not call blk_queue_max_hw_sectors(). Instead they set
limits of their devices by blk_set_stacking_limits() + disk_stack_limits().
Field bio->io_pages stays zero until user set max_sectors_kb via sysfs.

This patch updates io_pages after merging limits in disk_stack_limits().

Commit c6d6e9b0f6 ("dm: do not allow readahead to limit IO size") fixed
the same problem for device-mapper devices, this one fixes MD RAIDs.

Mikulas Patocka ad6bf88a6c block: fix an integer overflow in logical block size
Logical block size has type unsigned short. That means that it can be at
most 32768. However, there are architectures that can run with 64k pages
(for example arm64) and on these architectures, it may be possible to
create block devices with 64k block size.

For exmaple (run this on an architecture with 64k pages):

Mount will fail with this error because it tries to read the superblock using 2-sector
access:
  device-mapper: writecache: I/O is not aligned, sector 2, size 1024, block size 65536
  EXT4-fs (dm-0): unable to read superblock

This patch changes the logical block size from unsigned short to unsigned
int to avoid the overflow.

Damien Le Moal 68c43f133a block: Introduce elevator features
Introduce the definition of elevator features through the
elevator_features flags in the elevator_type structure. Each flag can
represent a feature supported by an elevator. The first feature defined
by this patch is support for zoned block device sequential write
constraint with the flag ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE, which is implemented
by the mq-deadline elevator using zone write locking.

Other possible features are IO priorities, write hints, latency targets
or single-LUN dual-actuator disks (for which the elevator could maintain
one LBA ordered list per actuator).

The required_elevator_features field is also added to the request_queue
structure to allow a device driver to specify elevator feature flags
that an elevator must support for the correct operation of the device
(e.g. device drivers for zoned block devices can have the
ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE flag as a required feature).
The helper function blk_queue_required_elevator_features() is
defined for setting this new field.

With these two new fields in place, the elevator functions
elevator_match() and elevator_find() are modified to allow a user to set
only an elevator with a set of features that satisfies the device
required features. Elevators not matching the device requirements are
not shown in the device sysfs queue/scheduler file to prevent their use.

The "none" elevator can always be selected as before.

Christoph Hellwig c6c84f78e2 block: fix max segment size handling in blk_queue_virt_boundary
We should only set the max segment size to unlimited if we actually
have a virt boundary.  Otherwise we accidentally clear that limit

Christoph Hellwig 09324d32d2 block: force an unlimited segment size on queues with a virt boundary
We currently fail to update the front/back segment size in the bio when
deciding to allow an otherwise gappy segement to a device with a
virt boundary.  The reason why this did not cause problems is that
devices with a virt boundary fundamentally don't use segments as we
know it and thus don't care.  Make that assumption formal by forcing
an unlimited segement size in this case.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous

     fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.

   - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized

   - 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

Jens Axboe 9491ae4aad mm: don't cap request size based on read-ahead setting
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.

Jens Axboe 87760e5eef block: hook up writeback throttling
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.

on purpose, to allow backup of requests for merging.

Fill a hole in struct request with a 'queue_depth' member, that
drivers can call to more closely inform the block layer of the
real queue depth.

Damien Le Moal 797476b88b block: Add 'zoned' queue limit
Add the zoned queue limit to indicate the zoning model of a block device.
Defined values are 0 (BLK_ZONED_NONE) for regular block devices,
1 (BLK_ZONED_HA) for host-aware zone block devices and 2 (BLK_ZONED_HM)
for host-managed zone block devices. The standards defined drive managed
model is not defined here since these block devices do not provide any
command for accessing zone information. Drive managed model devices will
be reported as BLK_ZONED_NONE.

The helper functions blk_queue_zoned_model and bdev_zoned_model return
the zoned limit and the functions blk_queue_is_zoned and bdev_is_zoned
return a boolean for callers to test if a block device is zoned.

The zoned attribute is also exported as a string to applications via
sysfs. BLK_ZONED_NONE shows as "none", BLK_ZONED_HA as "host-aware" and
BLK_ZONED_HM as "host-managed".
