Michael Callahan ddcf35d397 block: Add and use op_stat_group() for indexing disk_stat fields.
Add and use a new op_stat_group() function for indexing partition stat
fields rather than indexing them by rq_data_dir() or bio_data_dir().
This function works similarly to op_is_sync() in that it takes the
request::cmd_flags or bio::bi_opf flags and determines which stats
should et updated.

In addition, the second parameter to generic_start_io_acct() and
generic_end_io_acct() is now a REQ_OP rather than simply a read or
write bit and it uses op_stat_group() on the parameter to determine
the stat group.

Note that the partition in_flight counts are not part of the per-cpu
statistics and as such are not indexed via this function.  It's now
indexed by op_is_write().

tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17.  Updated to pass around REQ_OP.

Tejun Heo 0d3bd88d54 swap,blkcg: issue swap io with the appropriate context
For backcharging we need to know who the page belongs to when swapping
it out.  We don't worry about things that do ->rw_page (zram etc) at the
moment, we're only worried about pages that actually go to a block
device.

Josef Bacik 08e18eab0c block: add bi_blkg to the bio for cgroups
Currently io.low uses a bi_cg_private to stash its private data for the
blkg, however other blkcg policies may want to use this as well.  Since
we can get the private data out of the blkg, move this to bi_blkg in the
bio and make it generic, then we can use bio_associate_blkg() to attach
the blkg to the bio.

Theoretically we could simply replace the bi_css with this since we can
get to all the same information from the blkg, however you have to
lookup the blkg, so for example wbc_init_bio() would have to lookup and
possibly allocate the blkg for the css it was trying to attach to the
bio.  This could be problematic and result in us either not attaching
the css at all to the bio, or falling back to the root blkcg if we are
unable to allocate the corresponding blkg.

So for now do this, and in the future if possible we could just replace
the bi_css with bi_blkg and update the helpers to do the correct
translation.

Merge tag 'xfs-4.18-merge-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
 "New features this cycle include the ability to relabel mounted
  filesystems, support for fallocated swapfiles, and using FUA for pure
  data O_DSYNC directio writes. With this cycle we begin to integrate
  online filesystem repair and refactor the growfs code in preparation
  for eventual subvolume support, though the road ahead for both
  features is quite long.

  There are also numerous refactorings of the iomap code to remove
  unnecessary log overhead, to disentangle some of the quota code, and
  to prepare for buffer head removal in a future upstream kernel.

  Metadata validation continues to improve, both in the hot path
  veifiers and the online filesystem check code. I anticipate sending a
  second pull request in a few days with more metadata validation
  improvements.

  This series has been run through a full xfstests run over the weekend
  and through a quick xfstests run against this morning's master, with
  no major failures reported.

  Summary:

   - Strengthen inode number and structure validation when allocating
     inodes.

Christoph Hellwig 0aa69fd32a block: add a lower-level bio_add_page interface
For the upcoming removal of buffer heads in XFS we need to keep track of
the number of outstanding writeback requests per page.  For this we need
to know if bio_add_page merged a region with the previous bvec or not.
Instead of adding additional arguments this refactors bio_add_page to
be implemented using three lower level helpers which users like XFS can
use directly if they care about the merge decisions.

Shaohua Li 111be88398 block-throttle: avoid double charge
If a bio is throttled and split after throttling, the bio could be
resubmited and enters the throttling again. This will cause part of the
bio to be charged multiple times. If the cgroup has an IO limit, the
double charge will significantly harm the performance. The bio split
becomes quite common after arbitrary bio size change.

To fix this, we always set the BIO_THROTTLED flag if a bio is throttled.
If the bio is cloned/split, we copy the flag to new bio too to avoid a
double charge. However, cloned bio could be directed to a new disk,
keeping the flag be a problem. The observation is we always set new disk
for the bio in this case, so we can clear the flag in bio_set_dev().

This issue exists for a long time, arbitrary bio size change just makes
it worse, so this should go into stable at least since v4.2.

Linus Torvalds 16382e17c0 Merge branch 'work.iov_iter' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull iov_iter updates from Al Viro:

 - bio_{map,copy}_user_iov() series; those are cleanups - fixes from the
   same pile went into mainline (and stable) in late September.

 - fs/iomap.c iov_iter-related fixes

 - new primitive - iov_iter_for_each_range(), which applies a function
   to kernel-mapped segments of an iov_iter.

   Usable for kvec and bvec ones, the latter does kmap()/kunmap() around
   the callback. _Not_ usable for iovec- or pipe-backed iov_iter; the
   latter is not hard to fix if the need ever appears, the former is by
   design.

   Another related primitive will have to wait for the next cycle - it
   passes page + offset + size instead of pointer + size, and that one
   will be usable for everything _except_ kvec. Unfortunately, that one
   didn't get exposure in -next yet, so...

 - a bit more lustre iov_iter work, including a use case for
   iov_iter_for_each_range() (checksum calculation)

 - vhost/scsi leak fix in failure exit

 - misc cleanups and detritectomy...

Huang Ying 225311a464 mm: test code to write THP to swap device as a whole
To support delay splitting THP (Transparent Huge Page) after swapped
out, we need to enhance swap writing code to support to write a THP as a
whole.  This will improve swap write IO performance.

As Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> pointed out, this should be based on
multipage bvec support, which hasn't been merged yet.  So this patch is
only for testing the functionality of the other patches in the series.
And will be reimplemented after multipage bvec support is merged.

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.

Some ->bi_end_io handlers (for example: pi_verify or decrypt handlers)

be advanced, splited and relocated many times so it is hard to guess
original iterator. Let's add 'bi_done' conter which accounts number
of bytes iterator was advanced during it's evolution. Later end_io handler
may easily restore original iterator by rewinding iterator to
iter->bi_done.

Dmitry Monakhov b1fb2c52b2 block: guard bvec iteration logic
Currently if some one try to advance bvec beyond it's size we simply
dump WARN_ONCE and continue to iterate beyond bvec array boundaries.
This simply means that we endup dereferencing/corrupting random memory
region.

Sane reaction would be to propagate error back to calling context
But bvec_iter_advance's calling context is not always good for error
handling. For safity reason let truncate iterator size to zero which
will break external iteration loop which prevent us from unpredictable
memory range corruption. And even it caller ignores an error, it will
corrupt it's own bvecs, not others.

This patch does:
- Return error back to caller with hope that it will react on this
- Truncate iterator size

Code was added long time ago here 4550dd6c, luckily no one hit it
in real life :)

Pull core block/IO updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main pull request for the block layer for 4.13. Not a huge
  round in terms of features, but there's a lot of churn related to some
  core cleanups.

  Note this depends on the UUID tree pull request, that Christoph
  already sent out.

  This pull request contains:

   - A series from Christoph, unifying the error/stats codes in the
     block layer. We now use blk_status_t everywhere, instead of using
     different schemes for different places.

   - Also from Christoph, some cleanups around request allocation and IO
     scheduler interactions in blk-mq.

   - And yet another series from Christoph, cleaning up how we handle
     and do bounce buffering in the block layer.

   - A blk-mq debugfs series from Bart, further improving on the support
     we have for exporting internal information to aid debugging IO
     hangs or stalls.

   - Also from Bart, a series that cleans up the request initialization
     differences across types of devices.

   - A series from Goldwyn Rodrigues, allowing the block layer to return
     failure if we will block and the user asked for non-blocking.

   - Patch from Hannes for supporting setting loop devices block size to
     that of the underlying device.

   - Two series of patches from Javier, fixing various issues with
     lightnvm, particular around pblk.

   - A series from me, adding support for write hints. This comes with
     NVMe support as well, so applications can help guide data placement
     on flash to improve performance, latencies, and write
     amplification.

   - A series from Ming, improving and hardening blk-mq support for
     stopping/starting and quiescing hardware queues.

   - Two pull requests for NVMe updates. Nothing major on the feature
     side, but lots of cleanups and bug fixes. From the usual crew.

   - A series from Neil Brown, greatly improving the bio rescue set
     support. Most notably, this kills the bio rescue work queues, if we
     don't really need them.

   - Lots of other little bug fixes that are all over the place"

Jens Axboe 9ae3b3f52c block: provide bio_uninit() free freeing integrity/task associations
Wen reports significant memory leaks with DIF and O_DIRECT:

"With nvme devive + T10 enabled, On a system it has 256GB and started
logging /proc/meminfo & /proc/slabinfo for every minute and in an hour
it increased by 15968128 kB or ~15+GB.. Approximately 256 MB / minute
leaking.

/proc/meminfo | grep SUnreclaim...

SUnreclaim:     22307264 kB
SUnreclaim:     22485888 kB
SUnreclaim:     22720256 kB

When testcases with T10 enabled call into __blkdev_direct_IO_simple,
code doesn't free memory allocated by bio_integrity_alloc. The patch
fixes the issue. HTX has been run with +60 hours without failure."

Since __blkdev_direct_IO_simple() allocates the bio on the stack, it
doesn't go through the regular bio free. This means that any ancillary
data allocated with the bio through the stack is not freed. Hence, we
can leak the integrity data associated with the bio, if the device is
using DIF/DIX.

Fix this by providing a bio_uninit() and export it, so that we can use
it to free this data. Note that this is a minimal fix for this issue.
Any current user of bio's that are allocated outside of
bio_alloc_bioset() suffers from this issue, most notably some drivers.
We will fix those in a more comprehensive patch for 4.13. This also
means that the commit marked as being fixed by this isn't the real
culprit, it's just the most obvious one out there.

Goldwyn Rodrigues 03a07c92a9 block: return on congested block device
A new bio operation flag REQ_NOWAIT is introduced to identify bio's
orignating from iocb with IOCB_NOWAIT. This flag indicates
to return immediately if a request cannot be made instead
of retrying.

Stacked devices such as md (the ones with make_request_fn hooks)
currently are not supported because it may block for housekeeping.
For example, an md can have a part of the device suspended.
For this reason, only request based devices are supported.
In the future, this feature will be expanded to stacked devices
by teaching them how to handle the REQ_NOWAIT flags.

NeilBrown 47e0fb461f blk: make the bioset rescue_workqueue optional.
This patch converts bioset_create() to not create a workqueue by
default, so alloctions will never trigger punt_bios_to_rescuer().  It
also introduces a new flag BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER which tells
bioset_create() to preserve the old behavior.

All callers of bioset_create() that are inside block device drivers,
are given the BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag.

biosets used by filesystems or other top-level users do not
need rescuing as the bio can never be queued behind other
bios.  This includes fs_bio_set, blkdev_dio_pool,
btrfs_bioset, xfs_ioend_bioset, and one allocated by
target_core_iblock.c.

biosets used by md/raid do not need rescuing as
their usage was recently audited and revised to never
risk deadlock.

It is hoped that most, if not all, of the remaining biosets
can end up being the non-rescued version.

"flags" arguments are often seen as good API design as they allow
easy extensibility.
bioset_create_nobvec() is implemented internally as a variation in
flags passed to __bioset_create().

To support future extension, make the internal structure part of the
API.
i.e. add a 'flags' argument to bioset_create() and discard
bioset_create_nobvec().

Note that the bio_split allocations in drivers/md/raid* do not need
the bvec mempool - they should have used bioset_create_nobvec().

Ming Lei c18a1e0900 block: introduce bio_clone_bioset_partial()
md still need bio clone(not the fast version) for behind write,
and it is more efficient to use bio_clone_bioset_partial().

The idea is simple and just copy the bvecs range specified from
parameters.

Christoph Hellwig f9d03f96b9 block: improve handling of the magic discard payload
Instead of allocating a single unused biovec for discard requests, send
them down without any payload.  Instead we allow the driver to add a
"special" payload using a biovec embedded into struct request (unioned
over other fields never used while in the driver), and overloading
the number of segments for this case.

This has a couple of advantages:

 - we don't have to allocate the bio_vec
 - the amount of special casing for discard requests in the block
   layer is significantly reduced
 - using this same scheme for other request types is trivial,
   which will be important for implementing the new WRITE_ZEROES
   op on devices where it actually requires a payload (e.g. SCSI)
 - we can get rid of playing games with the request length, as
   we'll never touch it and completions will work just fine
 - it will allow us to support ranged discard operations in the
   future by merging non-contiguous discard bios into a single
   request
 - last but not least it removes a lot of code

This patch is the common base for my WIP series for ranges discards and to
remove discard_zeroes_data in favor of always using REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES,
so it would be good to get it in quickly.
