*
* BFQ is a proportional-share I/O scheduler, with some extra
* low-latency capabilities. BFQ also supports full hierarchical
* scheduling through cgroups. Next paragraphs provide an introduction
* on BFQ inner workings. Details on BFQ benefits, usage and
* limitations can be found in Documentation/block/bfq-iosched.rst.
*
* BFQ is a proportional-share storage-I/O scheduling algorithm based
* on the slice-by-slice service scheme of CFQ. But BFQ assigns
* budgets, measured in number of sectors, to processes instead of
* time slices. The device is not granted to the in-service process
* for a given time slice, but until it has exhausted its assigned
* budget. This change from the time to the service domain enables BFQ
* to distribute the device throughput among processes as desired,
* without any distortion due to throughput fluctuations, or to device
* internal queueing. BFQ uses an ad hoc internal scheduler, called
* B-WF2Q+, to schedule processes according to their budgets. More
* precisely, BFQ schedules queues associated with processes. Each
* process/queue is assigned a user-configurable weight, and B-WF2Q+
* guarantees that each queue receives a fraction of the throughput
* proportional to its weight. Thanks to the accurate policy of
* B-WF2Q+, BFQ can afford to assign high budgets to I/O-bound
* processes issuing sequential requests (to boost the throughput),
* and yet guarantee a low latency to interactive and soft real-time
* applications.
*
* In particular, to provide these low-latency guarantees, BFQ
* explicitly privileges the I/O of two classes of time-sensitive
* applications: interactive and soft real-time. In more detail, BFQ
* behaves this way if the low_latency parameter is set (default
* configuration). This feature enables BFQ to provide applications in
* these classes with a very low latency.
*
* To implement this feature, BFQ constantly tries to detect whether
* the I/O requests in a bfq_queue come from an interactive or a soft
* real-time application. For brevity, in these cases, the queue is
* said to be interactive or soft real-time. In both cases, BFQ
* privileges the service of the queue, over that of non-interactive
* and non-soft-real-time queues. This privileging is performed,
* mainly, by raising the weight of the queue. So, for brevity, we
* call just weight-raising periods the time periods during which a
* queue is privileged, because deemed interactive or soft real-time.
*
* The detection of soft real-time queues/applications is described in
* detail in the comments on the function
* bfq_bfqq_softrt_next_start. On the other hand, the detection of an
* interactive queue works as follows: a queue is deemed interactive
* if it is constantly non empty only for a limited time interval,
* after which it does become empty. The queue may be deemed
* interactive again (for a limited time), if it restarts being
* constantly non empty, provided that this happens only after the
* queue has remained empty for a given minimum idle time.
*
* By default, BFQ computes automatically the above maximum time
* interval, i.e., the time interval after which a constantly
* non-empty queue stops being deemed interactive. Since a queue is
* weight-raised while it is deemed interactive, this maximum time
* interval happens to coincide with the (maximum) duration of the
* weight-raising for interactive queues.
*
* Finally, BFQ also features additional heuristics for
* preserving both a low latency and a high throughput on NCQ-capable,
* rotational or flash-based devices, and to get the job done quickly
* for applications consisting in many I/O-bound processes.
*
* NOTE: if the main or only goal, with a given device, is to achieve
* the maximum-possible throughput at all times, then do switch off
* all low-latency heuristics for that device, by setting low_latency
* to 0.
*
* BFQ is described in [1], where also a reference to the initial,
* more theoretical paper on BFQ can be found. The interested reader
* can find in the latter paper full details on the main algorithm, as
* well as formulas of the guarantees and formal proofs of all the
* properties. With respect to the version of BFQ presented in these
* papers, this implementation adds a few more heuristics, such as the
* ones that guarantee a low latency to interactive and soft real-time
* applications, and a hierarchical extension based on H-WF2Q+.
*
* B-WF2Q+ is based on WF2Q+, which is described in [2], together with
* H-WF2Q+, while the augmented tree used here to implement B-WF2Q+
* with O(log N) complexity derives from the one introduced with EEVDF
* in [3].

* where r is the peak rate of the device, and ref_rate and
* ref_wr_duration are two reference parameters. In particular,
* ref_rate is the peak rate of the reference storage device (see
* below), and ref_wr_duration is about the maximum time needed, with
* BFQ and while reading two files in parallel, to load typical large
* applications on the reference device (see the comments on
* max_service_from_wr below, for more details on how ref_wr_duration
* is obtained). In practice, the slower/faster the device at hand
* is, the more/less it takes to load applications with respect to the
* reference device. Accordingly, the longer/shorter BFQ grants
* weight raising to interactive applications.
*
* BFQ uses two different reference pairs (ref_rate, ref_wr_duration),
* depending on whether the device is rotational or non-rotational.
*
* In the following definitions, ref_rate[0] and ref_wr_duration[0]
* are the reference values for a rotational device, whereas
* ref_rate[1] and ref_wr_duration[1] are the reference values for a
* non-rotational device. The reference rates are not the actual peak
* rates of the devices used as a reference, but slightly lower
* values. The reason for using slightly lower values is that the
* peak-rate estimator tends to yield slightly lower values than the
* actual peak rate (it can yield the actual peak rate only if there
* is only one process doing I/O, and the process does sequential
* I/O).
*
* The reference peak rates are measured in sectors/usec, left-shifted
* by BFQ_RATE_SHIFT.

/*
* BFQ uses the above-detailed, time-based weight-raising mechanism to
* privilege interactive tasks. This mechanism is vulnerable to the
* following false positives: I/O-bound applications that will go on
* doing I/O for much longer than the duration of weight
* raising. These applications have basically no benefit from being
* weight-raised at the beginning of their I/O. On the opposite end,
* while being weight-raised, these applications
* a) unjustly steal throughput to applications that may actually need
* low latency;
* b) make BFQ uselessly perform device idling; device idling results
* in loss of device throughput with most flash-based storage, and may
* increase latencies when used purposelessly.
*
* BFQ tries to reduce these problems, by adopting the following
* countermeasure. To introduce this countermeasure, we need first to
* finish explaining how the duration of weight-raising for
* interactive tasks is computed.
*
* For a bfq_queue deemed as interactive, the duration of weight
* raising is dynamically adjusted, as a function of the estimated
* peak rate of the device, so as to be equal to the time needed to
* execute the 'largest' interactive task we benchmarked so far. By
* largest task, we mean the task for which each involved process has
* to do more I/O than for any of the other tasks we benchmarked. This
* reference interactive task is the start-up of LibreOffice Writer,
* and in this task each process/bfq_queue needs to have at most ~110K
* sectors transferred.
*
* This last piece of information enables BFQ to reduce the actual
* duration of weight-raising for at least one class of I/O-bound
* applications: those doing sequential or quasi-sequential I/O. An
* example is file copy. In fact, once started, the main I/O-bound
* processes of these applications usually consume the above 110K
* sectors in much less time than the processes of an application that
* is starting, because these I/O-bound processes will greedily devote
* almost all their CPU cycles only to their target,
* throughput-friendly I/O operations. This is even more true if BFQ
* happens to be underestimating the device peak rate, and thus
* overestimating the duration of weight raising. But, according to
* our measurements, once transferred 110K sectors, these processes
* have no right to be weight-raised any longer.
*
* Basing on the last consideration, BFQ ends weight-raising for a
* bfq_queue if the latter happens to have received an amount of
* service at least equal to the following constant. The constant is
* set to slightly more than 110K, to have a minimum safety margin.
*
* This early ending of weight-raising reduces the amount of time
* during which interactive false positives cause the two problems
* described at the beginning of these comments.

* If many queues belonging to the same group happen to be created
* shortly after each other, then the processes associated with these
* queues have typically a common goal. In particular, bursts of queue
* creations are usually caused by services or applications that spawn
* many parallel threads/processes. Examples are systemd during boot,
* or git grep. To help these processes get their job done as soon as
* possible, it is usually better to not grant either weight-raising
* or device idling to their queues, unless these queues must be
* protected from the I/O flowing through other active queues.
*
* In this comment we describe, firstly, the reasons why this fact
* holds, and, secondly, the next function, which implements the main
* steps needed to properly mark these queues so that they can then be
* treated in a different way.
*
* The above services or applications benefit mostly from a high
* throughput: the quicker the requests of the activated queues are
* cumulatively served, the sooner the target job of these queues gets
* completed. As a consequence, weight-raising any of these queues,
* which also implies idling the device for it, is almost always
* counterproductive, unless there are other active queues to isolate
* these new queues from. If there no other active queues, then
* weight-raising these new queues just lowers throughput in most
* cases.
*
* On the other hand, a burst of queue creations may be caused also by
* the start of an application that does not consist of a lot of
* parallel I/O-bound threads. In fact, with a complex application,
* several short processes may need to be executed to start-up the
* application. In this respect, to start an application as quickly as
* possible, the best thing to do is in any case to privilege the I/O
* related to the application with respect to all other
* I/O. Therefore, the best strategy to start as quickly as possible
* an application that causes a burst of queue creations is to
* weight-raise all the queues created during the burst. This is the
* exact opposite of the best strategy for the other type of bursts.
*
* In the end, to take the best action for each of the two cases, the
* two types of bursts need to be distinguished. Fortunately, this
* seems relatively easy, by looking at the sizes of the bursts. In
* particular, we found a threshold such that only bursts with a
* larger size than that threshold are apparently caused by
* services or commands such as systemd or git grep. For brevity,
* hereafter we call just 'large' these bursts. BFQ *does not*
* weight-raise queues whose creation occurs in a large burst. In
* addition, for each of these queues BFQ performs or does not perform
* idling depending on which choice boosts the throughput more. The
* exact choice depends on the device and request pattern at
* hand.
*
* Unfortunately, false positives may occur while an interactive task
* is starting (e.g., an application is being started). The
* consequence is that the queues associated with the task do not
* enjoy weight raising as expected. Fortunately these false positives
* are very rare. They typically occur if some service happens to
* start doing I/O exactly when the interactive task starts.
*
* Turning back to the next function, it is invoked only if there are
* no active queues (apart from active queues that would belong to the
* same, possible burst bfqq would belong to), and it implements all
* the steps needed to detect the occurrence of a large burst and to
* properly mark all the queues belonging to it (so that they can then
* be treated in a different way). This goal is achieved by
* maintaining a "burst list" that holds, temporarily, the queues that
* belong to the burst in progress. The list is then used to mark
* these queues as belonging to a large burst if the burst does become
* large. The main steps are the following.
*
* . when the very first queue is created, the queue is inserted into the
* list (as it could be the first queue in a possible burst)
*
* . if the current burst has not yet become large, and a queue Q that does
* not yet belong to the burst is activated shortly after the last time
* at which a new queue entered the burst list, then the function appends
* Q to the burst list
*
* . if, as a consequence of the previous step, the burst size reaches
* the large-burst threshold, then
*
* . all the queues in the burst list are marked as belonging to a
* large burst
*
* . the burst list is deleted; in fact, the burst list already served
* its purpose (keeping temporarily track of the queues in a burst,
* so as to be able to mark them as belonging to a large burst in the
* previous sub-step), and now is not needed any more
*
* . the device enters a large-burst mode
*
* . if a queue Q that does not belong to the burst is created while
* the device is in large-burst mode and shortly after the last time
* at which a queue either entered the burst list or was marked as
* belonging to the current large burst, then Q is immediately marked
* as belonging to a large burst.
*
* . if a queue Q that does not belong to the burst is created a while
* later, i.e., not shortly after, than the last time at which a queue
* either entered the burst list or was marked as belonging to the
* current large burst, then the current burst is deemed as finished and:
*
* . the large-burst mode is reset if set
*
* . the burst list is emptied
*
* . Q is inserted in the burst list, as Q may be the first queue
* in a possible new burst (then the burst list contains just Q
* after this step).

* The next function, invoked after the input queue bfqq switches from

* the chance to possibly preempt the in-service queue, and the reason
* for preempting the in-service queue is to achieve one of the two
* goals below.
*
* 1. Guarantee to bfqq its reserved bandwidth even if bfqq has
* expired because it has remained idle. In particular, bfqq may have
* expired for one of the following two reasons:
*
* - BFQQE_NO_MORE_REQUESTS bfqq did not enjoy any device idling
* and did not make it to issue a new request before its last
* request was served;
*
* - BFQQE_TOO_IDLE bfqq did enjoy device idling, but did not issue
* a new request before the expiration of the idling-time.
*
* Even if bfqq has expired for one of the above reasons, the process
* associated with the queue may be however issuing requests greedily,
* and thus be sensitive to the bandwidth it receives (bfqq may have
* remained idle for other reasons: CPU high load, bfqq not enjoying
* idling, I/O throttling somewhere in the path from the process to
* the I/O scheduler, ...). But if, after every expiration for one of
* the above two reasons, bfqq has to wait for the service of at least
* one full budget of another queue before being served again, then
* bfqq is likely to get a much lower bandwidth or resource time than
* its reserved ones. To address this issue, two countermeasures need
* to be taken.
*
* First, the budget and the timestamps of bfqq need to be updated in
* a special way on bfqq reactivation: they need to be updated as if
* bfqq did not remain idle and did not expire. In fact, if they are
* computed as if bfqq expired and remained idle until reactivation,
* then the process associated with bfqq is treated as if, instead of
* being greedy, it stopped issuing requests when bfqq remained idle,
* and restarts issuing requests only on this reactivation. In other
* words, the scheduler does not help the process recover the "service
* hole" between bfqq expiration and reactivation. As a consequence,
* the process receives a lower bandwidth than its reserved one. In
* contrast, to recover this hole, the budget must be updated as if
* bfqq was not expired at all before this reactivation, i.e., it must
* be set to the value of the remaining budget when bfqq was
* expired. Along the same line, timestamps need to be assigned the
* value they had the last time bfqq was selected for service, i.e.,
* before last expiration. Thus timestamps need to be back-shifted
* with respect to their normal computation (see [1] for more details
* on this tricky aspect).
*
* Secondly, to allow the process to recover the hole, the in-service
* queue must be expired too, to give bfqq the chance to preempt it
* immediately. In fact, if bfqq has to wait for a full budget of the
* in-service queue to be completed, then it may become impossible to
* let the process recover the hole, even if the back-shifted
* timestamps of bfqq are lower than those of the in-service queue. If
* this happens for most or all of the holes, then the process may not
* receive its reserved bandwidth. In this respect, it is worth noting
* that, being the service of outstanding requests unpreemptible, a
* little fraction of the holes may however be unrecoverable, thereby
* causing a little loss of bandwidth.
*
* The last important point is detecting whether bfqq does need this
* bandwidth recovery. In this respect, the next function deems the
* process associated with bfqq greedy, and thus allows it to recover
* the hole, if: 1) the process is waiting for the arrival of a new
* request (which implies that bfqq expired for one of the above two
* reasons), and 2) such a request has arrived soon. The first
* condition is controlled through the flag non_blocking_wait_rq,
* while the second through the flag arrived_in_time. If both
* conditions hold, then the function computes the budget in the
* above-described special way, and signals that the in-service queue
* should be expired. Timestamp back-shifting is done later in
* __bfq_activate_entity.
*
* 2. Reduce latency. Even if timestamps are not backshifted to let
* the process associated with bfqq recover a service hole, bfqq may
* however happen to have, after being (re)activated, a lower finish
* timestamp than the in-service queue. That is, the next budget of
* bfqq may have to be completed before the one of the in-service
* queue. If this is the case, then preempting the in-service queue
* allows this goal to be achieved, apart from the unpreemptible,
* outstanding requests mentioned above.
*
* Unfortunately, regardless of which of the above two goals one wants
* to achieve, service trees need first to be updated to know whether
* the in-service queue must be preempted. To have service trees
* correctly updated, the in-service queue must be expired and
* rescheduled, and bfqq must be scheduled too. This is one of the
* most costly operations (in future versions, the scheduling
* mechanism may be re-designed in such a way to make it possible to
* know whether preemption is needed without needing to update service
* trees). In addition, queue preemptions almost always cause random
* I/O, which may in turn cause loss of throughput. Finally, there may
* even be no in-service queue when the next function is invoked (so,
* no queue to compare timestamps with). Because of these facts, the
* next function adopts the following simple scheme to avoid costly
* operations, too frequent preemptions and too many dependencies on
* the state of the scheduler: it requests the expiration of the
* in-service queue (unconditionally) only for queues that need to
* recover a hole. Then it delegates to other parts of the code the
* responsibility of handling the above case 2.

* b) on the downside, after becoming empty, bfqq is likely to
* expire before getting its next request. With this request
* arrival pattern, it is very hard to sample total service
* times and update the inject limit accordingly (see comments
* on bfq_update_inject_limit()). So the limit is likely to be
* never, or at least seldom, updated. As a consequence, by
* setting the limit to 1, we avoid that no injection ever
* occurs with bfqq. On the downside, this proactive step

* asymmetries. For example, if one of the queues in a set of

* There is a case where idling does not have to be performed for

*
* To introduce this case, we can note that allowing the drive
* to enqueue more than one request at a time, and hence
* delegating de facto final scheduling decisions to the
* drive's internal scheduler, entails loss of control on the
* actual request service order. In particular, the critical
* situation is when requests from different processes happen
* to be present, at the same time, in the internal queue(s)
* of the drive. In such a situation, the drive, by deciding
* the service order of the internally-queued requests, does
* determine also the actual throughput distribution among
* these processes. But the drive typically has no notion or
* concern about per-process throughput distribution, and
* makes its decisions only on a per-request basis. Therefore,
* the service distribution enforced by the drive's internal
* scheduler is likely to coincide with the desired throughput
* distribution only in a completely symmetric, or favorably
* skewed scenario where:
* (i-a) each of these processes must get the same throughput as
* the others,
* (i-b) in case (i-a) does not hold, it holds that the process
* associated with bfqq must receive a lower or equal
* throughput than any of the other processes;
* (ii) the I/O of each process has the same properties, in
* terms of locality (sequential or random), direction
* (reads or writes), request sizes, greediness
* (from I/O-bound to sporadic), and so on;
* In fact, in such a scenario, the drive tends to treat the requests
* of each process in about the same way as the requests of the
* others, and thus to provide each of these processes with about the
* same throughput. This is exactly the desired throughput
* distribution if (i-a) holds, or, if (i-b) holds instead, this is an
* even more convenient distribution for (the process associated with)
* bfqq.
*
* In contrast, in any asymmetric or unfavorable scenario, device
* idling (I/O-dispatch plugging) is certainly needed to guarantee
* that bfqq receives its assigned fraction of the device throughput
* (see [1] for details).
*
* The problem is that idling may significantly reduce throughput with
* certain combinations of types of I/O and devices. An important
* example is sync random I/O on flash storage with command
* queueing. So, unless bfqq falls in cases where idling also boosts
* throughput, it is important to check conditions (i-a), i(-b) and
* (ii) accurately, so as to avoid idling when not strictly needed for
* service guarantees.
*
* Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to thoroughly check
* condition (ii). And, in case there are active groups, it becomes
* very difficult to check conditions (i-a) and (i-b) too. In fact,
* if there are active groups, then, for conditions (i-a) or (i-b) to
* become false 'indirectly', it is enough that an active group
* contains more active processes or sub-groups than some other active
* group. More precisely, for conditions (i-a) or (i-b) to become
* false because of such a group, it is not even necessary that the
* group is (still) active: it is sufficient that, even if the group
* has become inactive, some of its descendant processes still have
* some request already dispatched but still waiting for
* completion. In fact, requests have still to be guaranteed their
* share of the throughput even after being dispatched. In this
* respect, it is easy to show that, if a group frequently becomes
* inactive while still having in-flight requests, and if, when this
* happens, the group is not considered in the calculation of whether
* the scenario is asymmetric, then the group may fail to be
* guaranteed its fair share of the throughput (basically because
* idling may not be performed for the descendant processes of the
* group, but it had to be). We address this issue with the following
* bi-modal behavior, implemented in the function
* bfq_asymmetric_scenario().
*
* If there are groups with requests waiting for completion
* (as commented above, some of these groups may even be
* already inactive), then the scenario is tagged as
* asymmetric, conservatively, without checking any of the
* conditions (i-a), (i-b) or (ii). So the device is idled for bfqq.
* This behavior matches also the fact that groups are created
* exactly if controlling I/O is a primary concern (to
* preserve bandwidth and latency guarantees).
*
* On the opposite end, if there are no groups with requests waiting
* for completion, then only conditions (i-a) and (i-b) are actually
* controlled, i.e., provided that conditions (i-a) or (i-b) holds,
* idling is not performed, regardless of whether condition (ii)
* holds. In other words, only if conditions (i-a) and (i-b) do not
* hold, then idling is allowed, and the device tends to be prevented
* from queueing many requests, possibly of several processes. Since
* there are no groups with requests waiting for completion, then, to
* control conditions (i-a) and (i-b) it is enough to check just
* whether all the queues with requests waiting for completion also
* have the same weight.
*
* Not checking condition (ii) evidently exposes bfqq to the
* risk of getting less throughput than its fair share.
* However, for queues with the same weight, a further
* mechanism, preemption, mitigates or even eliminates this
* problem. And it does so without consequences on overall
* throughput. This mechanism and its benefits are explained
* in the next three paragraphs.
*
* Even if a queue, say Q, is expired when it remains idle, Q
* can still preempt the new in-service queue if the next
* request of Q arrives soon (see the comments on
* bfq_bfqq_update_budg_for_activation). If all queues and
* groups have the same weight, this form of preemption,
* combined with the hole-recovery heuristic described in the
* comments on function bfq_bfqq_update_budg_for_activation,
* are enough to preserve a correct bandwidth distribution in
* the mid term, even without idling. In fact, even if not
* idling allows the internal queues of the device to contain
* many requests, and thus to reorder requests, we can rather
* safely assume that the internal scheduler still preserves a
* minimum of mid-term fairness.
*
* More precisely, this preemption-based, idleless approach
* provides fairness in terms of IOPS, and not sectors per
* second. This can be seen with a simple example. Suppose
* that there are two queues with the same weight, but that
* the first queue receives requests of 8 sectors, while the
* second queue receives requests of 1024 sectors. In
* addition, suppose that each of the two queues contains at
* most one request at a time, which implies that each queue
* always remains idle after it is served. Finally, after
* remaining idle, each queue receives very quickly a new
* request. It follows that the two queues are served
* alternatively, preempting each other if needed. This
* implies that, although both queues have the same weight,
* the queue with large requests receives a service that is
* 1024/8 times as high as the service received by the other
* queue.
*
* The motivation for using preemption instead of idling (for
* queues with the same weight) is that, by not idling,
* service guarantees are preserved (completely or at least in
* part) without minimally sacrificing throughput. And, if
* there is no active group, then the primary expectation for
* this device is probably a high throughput.
*
* We are now left only with explaining the two sub-conditions in the
* additional compound condition that is checked below for deciding
* whether the scenario is asymmetric. To explain the first
* sub-condition, we need to add that the function
* bfq_asymmetric_scenario checks the weights of only
* non-weight-raised queues, for efficiency reasons (see comments on
* bfq_weights_tree_add()). Then the fact that bfqq is weight-raised
* is checked explicitly here. More precisely, the compound condition
* below takes into account also the fact that, even if bfqq is being
* weight-raised, the scenario is still symmetric if all queues with
* requests waiting for completion happen to be
* weight-raised. Actually, we should be even more precise here, and
* differentiate between interactive weight raising and soft real-time
* weight raising.
*
* The second sub-condition checked in the compound condition is
* whether there is a fair amount of already in-flight I/O not
* belonging to bfqq. If so, I/O dispatching is to be plugged, for the
* following reason. The drive may decide to serve in-flight
* non-bfqq's I/O requests before bfqq's ones, thereby delaying the
* arrival of new I/O requests for bfqq (recall that bfqq is sync). If
* I/O-dispatching is not plugged, then, while bfqq remains empty, a
* basically uncontrolled amount of I/O from other queues may be
* dispatched too, possibly causing the service of bfqq's I/O to be
* delayed even longer in the drive. This problem gets more and more
* serious as the speed and the queue depth of the drive grow,
* because, as these two quantities grow, the probability to find no
* queue busy but many requests in flight grows too. By contrast,
* plugging I/O dispatching minimizes the delay induced by already
* in-flight I/O, and enables bfqq to recover the bandwidth it may
* lose because of this delay.
*
* As a side note, it is worth considering that the above
* device-idling countermeasures may however fail in the following
* unlucky scenario: if I/O-dispatch plugging is (correctly) disabled
* in a time period during which all symmetry sub-conditions hold, and
* therefore the device is allowed to enqueue many requests, but at
* some later point in time some sub-condition stops to hold, then it
* may become impossible to make requests be served in the desired
* order until all the requests already queued in the device have been
* served. The last sub-condition commented above somewhat mitigates
* this problem for weight-raised queues.

* previous one has been completed). This makes it hard to evaluate
* the real rate at which the I/O requests of each bfq_queue are
* served. In fact, for an I/O scheduler like BFQ, serving a
* bfq_queue means just dispatching its requests during its service
* slot (i.e., until the budget of the queue is exhausted, or the
* queue remains idle, or, finally, a timeout fires). But, during the
* service slot of a bfq_queue, around 100 ms at most, the device may
* be even still processing requests of bfq_queues served in previous
* service slots. On the opposite end, the requests of the in-service
* bfq_queue may be completed after the service slot of the queue
* finishes.
*
* Anyway, unless more sophisticated solutions are used
* (where possible), the sum of the sizes of the requests dispatched
* during the service slot of a bfq_queue is probably the only
* approximation available for the service received by the bfq_queue
* during its service slot. And this sum is the quantity used in this
* function to evaluate the I/O speed of a process.

* To be deemed as soft real-time, an application must meet two
* requirements. First, the application must not require an average
* bandwidth higher than the approximate bandwidth required to playback or
* record a compressed high-definition video.
* The next function is invoked on the completion of the last request of a
* batch, to compute the next-start time instant, soft_rt_next_start, such
* that, if the next request of the application does not arrive before
* soft_rt_next_start, then the above requirement on the bandwidth is met.
*
* The second requirement is that the request pattern of the application is
* isochronous, i.e., that, after issuing a request or a batch of requests,
* the application stops issuing new requests until all its pending requests
* have been completed. After that, the application may issue a new batch,
* and so on.
* For this reason the next function is invoked to compute
* soft_rt_next_start only for applications that meet this requirement,
* whereas soft_rt_next_start is set to infinity for applications that do
* not.
*
* Unfortunately, even a greedy (i.e., I/O-bound) application may
* happen to meet, occasionally or systematically, both the above
* bandwidth and isochrony requirements. This may happen at least in
* the following circumstances. First, if the CPU load is high. The
* application may stop issuing requests while the CPUs are busy
* serving other processes, then restart, then stop again for a while,
* and so on. The other circumstances are related to the storage
* device: the storage device is highly loaded or reaches a low-enough
* throughput with the I/O of the application (e.g., because the I/O
* is random and/or the device is slow). In all these cases, the
* I/O of the application may be simply slowed down enough to meet
* the bandwidth and isochrony requirements. To reduce the probability
* that greedy applications are deemed as soft real-time in these
* corner cases, a further rule is used in the computation of
* soft_rt_next_start: the return value of this function is forced to
* be higher than the maximum between the following two quantities.
*
* (a) Current time plus: (1) the maximum time for which the arrival
* of a request is waited for when a sync queue becomes idle,
* namely bfqd->bfq_slice_idle, and (2) a few extra jiffies. We
* postpone for a moment the reason for adding a few extra
* jiffies; we get back to it after next item (b). Lower-bounding
* the return value of this function with the current time plus
* bfqd->bfq_slice_idle tends to filter out greedy applications,
* because the latter issue their next request as soon as possible
* after the last one has been completed. In contrast, a soft
* real-time application spends some time processing data, after a
* batch of its requests has been completed.
*
* (b) Current value of bfqq->soft_rt_next_start. As pointed out
* above, greedy applications may happen to meet both the
* bandwidth and isochrony requirements under heavy CPU or
* storage-device load. In more detail, in these scenarios, these
* applications happen, only for limited time periods, to do I/O
* slowly enough to meet all the requirements described so far,
* including the filtering in above item (a). These slow-speed
* time intervals are usually interspersed between other time
* intervals during which these applications do I/O at a very high
* speed. Fortunately, exactly because of the high speed of the
* I/O in the high-speed intervals, the values returned by this
* function happen to be so high, near the end of any such
* high-speed interval, to be likely to fall *after* the end of
* the low-speed time interval that follows. These high values are
* stored in bfqq->soft_rt_next_start after each invocation of
* this function. As a consequence, if the last value of
* bfqq->soft_rt_next_start is constantly used to lower-bound the
* next value that this function may return, then, from the very
* beginning of a low-speed interval, bfqq->soft_rt_next_start is
* likely to be constantly kept so high that any I/O request
* issued during the low-speed interval is considered as arriving
* to soon for the application to be deemed as soft
* real-time. Then, in the high-speed interval that follows, the
* application will not be deemed as soft real-time, just because
* it will do I/O at a high speed. And so on.
*
* Getting back to the filtering in item (a), in the following two
* cases this filtering might be easily passed by a greedy
* application, if the reference quantity was just
* bfqd->bfq_slice_idle:
* 1) HZ is so low that the duration of a jiffy is comparable to or
* higher than bfqd->bfq_slice_idle. This happens, e.g., on slow
* devices with HZ=100. The time granularity may be so coarse
* that the approximation, in jiffies, of bfqd->bfq_slice_idle
* is rather lower than the exact value.
* 2) jiffies, instead of increasing at a constant rate, may stop increasing
* for a while, then suddenly 'jump' by several units to recover the lost
* increments. This seems to happen, e.g., inside virtual machines.
* To address this issue, in the filtering in (a) we do not use as a
* reference time interval just bfqd->bfq_slice_idle, but
* bfqd->bfq_slice_idle plus a few jiffies. In particular, we add the
* minimum number of jiffies for which the filter seems to be quite
* precise also in embedded systems and KVM/QEMU virtual machines.

* injects such I/O unconditionally. Injecting async
* I/O from the same process can cause no harm to the
* process. On the contrary, it can only increase
* bandwidth and reduce latency for the process.
*
* The second if checks whether there happens to be a
* non-empty waker queue for bfqq, i.e., a queue whose
* I/O needs to be completed for bfqq to receive new
* I/O. This happens, e.g., if bfqq is associated with
* a process that does some sync. A sync generates
* extra blocking I/O, which must be completed before
* the process associated with bfqq can go on with its
* I/O. If the I/O of the waker queue is not served,
* then bfqq remains empty, and no I/O is dispatched,
* until the idle timeout fires for bfqq. This is
* likely to result in lower bandwidth and higher
* latencies for bfqq, and in a severe loss of total
* throughput. The best action to take is therefore to
* serve the waker queue as soon as possible. So do it
* (without relying on the third alternative below for
* eventually serving waker_bfqq's I/O; see the last
* paragraph for further details). This systematic
* injection of I/O from the waker queue does not
* cause any delay to bfqq's I/O. On the contrary,
* next bfqq's I/O is brought forward dramatically,
* for it is not blocked for milliseconds.
*
* The third if checks whether bfqq is a queue for
* which it is better to avoid injection. It is so if
* bfqq delivers more throughput when served without
* any further I/O from other queues in the middle, or
* if the service times of bfqq's I/O requests both
* count more than overall throughput, and may be
* easily increased by injection (this happens if bfqq
* has a short think time). If none of these
* conditions holds, then a candidate queue for
* injection is looked for through
* bfq_choose_bfqq_for_injection(). Note that the
* latter may return NULL (for example if the inject
* limit for bfqq is currently 0).
*
* NOTE: motivation for the second alternative
*
* Thanks to the way the inject limit is updated in
* bfq_update_has_short_ttime(), it is rather likely
* that, if I/O is being plugged for bfqq and the
* waker queue has pending I/O requests that are
* blocking bfqq's I/O, then the third alternative
* above lets the waker queue get served before the
* I/O-plugging timeout fires. So one may deem the
* second alternative superfluous. It is not, because
* the third alternative may be way less effective in
* case of a synchronization. For two main
* reasons. First, throughput may be low because the
* inject limit may be too low to guarantee the same
* amount of injected I/O, from the waker queue or
* other queues, that the second alternative
* guarantees (the second alternative unconditionally
* injects a pending I/O request of the waker queue
* for each bfq_dispatch_request()). Second, with the
* third alternative, the duration of the plugging,
* i.e., the time before bfqq finally receives new I/O,
* may not be minimized, because the waker queue may
* happen to be served only after other queues.

* Until the base value for the total service time gets
* finally computed for bfqq, the inject limit does depend on
* the think-time state (short|long). In particular, the limit
* is 0 or 1 if the think time is deemed, respectively, as
* short or long (details in the comments in
* bfq_update_inject_limit()). Accordingly, the next
* instructions reset the inject limit if the think-time state
* has changed and the above base value is still to be
* computed.
*
* However, the reset is performed only if more than 100 ms
* have elapsed since the last update of the inject limit, or
* (inclusive) if the change is from short to long think
* time. The reason for this waiting is as follows.
*
* bfqq may have a long think time because of a
* synchronization with some other queue, i.e., because the
* I/O of some other queue may need to be completed for bfqq
* to receive new I/O. Details in the comments on the choice
* of the queue for injection in bfq_select_queue().
*
* As stressed in those comments, if such a synchronization is
* actually in place, then, without injection on bfqq, the
* blocking I/O cannot happen to served while bfqq is in
* service. As a consequence, if bfqq is granted
* I/O-dispatch-plugging, then bfqq remains empty, and no I/O
* is dispatched, until the idle timeout fires. This is likely
* to result in lower bandwidth and higher latencies for bfqq,
* and in a severe loss of total throughput.
*
* On the opposite end, a non-zero inject limit may allow the
* I/O that blocks bfqq to be executed soon, and therefore
* bfqq to receive new I/O soon.
*
* But, if the blocking gets actually eliminated, then the
* next think-time sample for bfqq may be very low. This in
* turn may cause bfqq's think time to be deemed
* short. Without the 100 ms barrier, this new state change
* would cause the body of the next if to be executed
* immediately. But this would set to 0 the inject
* limit. Without injection, the blocking I/O would cause the
* think time of bfqq to become long again, and therefore the
* inject limit to be raised again, and so on. The only effect
* of such a steady oscillation between the two think-time
* states would be to prevent effective injection on bfqq.
*
* In contrast, if the inject limit is not reset during such a
* long time interval as 100 ms, then the number of short
* think time samples can grow significantly before the reset
* is performed. As a consequence, the think time state can
* become stable before the reset. Therefore there will be no
* state change when the 100 ms elapse, and no reset of the
* inject limit. The inject limit remains steadily equal to 1
* both during and after the 100 ms. So injection can be
* performed at all times, and throughput gets boosted.
*
* An inject limit equal to 1 is however in conflict, in
* general, with the fact that the think time of bfqq is
* short, because injection may be likely to delay bfqq's I/O
* (as explained in the comments in
* bfq_update_inject_limit()). But this does not happen in
* this special case, because bfqq's low think time is due to
* an effective handling of a synchronization, through
* injection. In this special case, bfqq's I/O does not get
* delayed by injection; on the contrary, bfqq's I/O is
* brought forward, because it is not blocked for
* milliseconds.
*
* In addition, serving the blocking I/O much sooner, and much
* more frequently than once per I/O-plugging timeout, makes
* it much quicker to detect a waker queue (the concept of
* waker queue is defined in the comments in
* bfq_add_request()). This makes it possible to start sooner
* to boost throughput more effectively, by injecting the I/O
* of the waker queue unconditionally on every
* bfq_dispatch_request().
*
* One last, important benefit of not resetting the inject
* limit before 100 ms is that, during this time interval, the
* base value for the total service time is likely to get
* finally computed for bfqq, freeing the inject limit from
* its relation with the think time.

* The processes associated with bfqq may happen to generate their
* cumulative I/O at a lower rate than the rate at which the device
* could serve the same I/O. This is rather probable, e.g., if only
* one process is associated with bfqq and the device is an SSD. It
* results in bfqq becoming often empty while in service. In this
* respect, if BFQ is allowed to switch to another queue when bfqq
* remains empty, then the device goes on being fed with I/O requests,
* and the throughput is not affected. In contrast, if BFQ is not
* allowed to switch to another queue---because bfqq is sync and
* I/O-dispatch needs to be plugged while bfqq is temporarily
* empty---then, during the service of bfqq, there will be frequent
* "service holes", i.e., time intervals during which bfqq gets empty
* and the device can only consume the I/O already queued in its
* hardware queues. During service holes, the device may even get to
* remaining idle. In the end, during the service of bfqq, the device
* is driven at a lower speed than the one it can reach with the kind
* of I/O flowing through bfqq.
*
* To counter this loss of throughput, BFQ implements a "request
* injection mechanism", which tries to fill the above service holes
* with I/O requests taken from other queues. The hard part in this
* mechanism is finding the right amount of I/O to inject, so as to
* both boost throughput and not break bfqq's bandwidth and latency
* guarantees. In this respect, the mechanism maintains a per-queue
* inject limit, computed as below. While bfqq is empty, the injection
* mechanism dispatches extra I/O requests only until the total number
* of I/O requests in flight---i.e., already dispatched but not yet
* completed---remains lower than this limit.
*
* A first definition comes in handy to introduce the algorithm by
* which the inject limit is computed. We define as first request for
* bfqq, an I/O request for bfqq that arrives while bfqq is in
* service, and causes bfqq to switch from empty to non-empty. The
* algorithm updates the limit as a function of the effect of
* injection on the service times of only the first requests of
* bfqq. The reason for this restriction is that these are the
* requests whose service time is affected most, because they are the
* first to arrive after injection possibly occurred.
*
* To evaluate the effect of injection, the algorithm measures the
* "total service time" of first requests. We define as total service
* time of an I/O request, the time that elapses since when the
* request is enqueued into bfqq, to when it is completed. This
* quantity allows the whole effect of injection to be measured. It is
* easy to see why. Suppose that some requests of other queues are
* actually injected while bfqq is empty, and that a new request R
* then arrives for bfqq. If the device does start to serve all or
* part of the injected requests during the service hole, then,
* because of this extra service, it may delay the next invocation of
* the dispatch hook of BFQ. Then, even after R gets eventually
* dispatched, the device may delay the actual service of R if it is
* still busy serving the extra requests, or if it decides to serve,
* before R, some extra request still present in its queues. As a
* conclusion, the cumulative extra delay caused by injection can be
* easily evaluated by just comparing the total service time of first
* requests with and without injection.
*
* The limit-update algorithm works as follows. On the arrival of a
* first request of bfqq, the algorithm measures the total time of the
* request only if one of the three cases below holds, and, for each
* case, it updates the limit as described below:
*
* (1) If there is no in-flight request. This gives a baseline for the
* total service time of the requests of bfqq. If the baseline has
* not been computed yet, then, after computing it, the limit is
* set to 1, to start boosting throughput, and to prepare the
* ground for the next case. If the baseline has already been
* computed, then it is updated, in case it results to be lower
* than the previous value.
*
* (2) If the limit is higher than 0 and there are in-flight
* requests. By comparing the total service time in this case with
* the above baseline, it is possible to know at which extent the
* current value of the limit is inflating the total service
* time. If the inflation is below a certain threshold, then bfqq
* is assumed to be suffering from no perceivable loss of its
* service guarantees, and the limit is even tentatively
* increased. If the inflation is above the threshold, then the
* limit is decreased. Due to the lack of any hysteresis, this
* logic makes the limit oscillate even in steady workload
* conditions. Yet we opted for it, because it is fast in reaching
* the best value for the limit, as a function of the current I/O
* workload. To reduce oscillations, this step is disabled for a
* short time interval after the limit happens to be decreased.
*
* (3) Periodically, after resetting the limit, to make sure that the
* limit eventually drops in case the workload changes. This is
* needed because, after the limit has gone safely up for a
* certain workload, it is impossible to guess whether the
* baseline total service time may have changed, without measuring
* it again without injection. A more effective version of this
* step might be to just sample the baseline, by interrupting
* injection only once, and then to reset/lower the limit only if
* the total service time with the current limit does happen to be
* too large.
*
* More details on each step are provided in the comments on the
* pieces of code that implement these steps: the branch handling the
* transition from empty to non empty in bfq_add_request(), the branch
* handling injection in bfq_select_queue(), and the function
* bfq_choose_bfqq_for_injection(). These comments also explain some
* exceptions, made by the injection mechanism in some special cases.
