If the in-service bfq_queue is sync and remains temporarily idle, then
I/O dispatching (from other queues) may be plugged. It may be dome for
two reasons: either to boost throughput, or to preserve the bandwidth
share of the in-service queue. In the first case, if the I/O of the
in-service queue, when it finally arrives, consists only of one small
I/O request, then it makes sense to plug even the I/O of the in-service
queue. In fact, serving such a small request immediately is likely to
lower throughput instead of boosting it, whereas waiting a little bit is
likely to let that request grow, thanks to request merging, and become
more profitable in terms of throughput (this is likely to happen exactly
because the I/O of the queue has been detected to boost throughput).
On the opposite end, if I/O dispatching is being plugged only to
preserve the bandwidth of the in-service queue, then it would be better
not to plug also the I/O of the in-service queue, because such a
plugging is likely to cause only loss of bandwidth for the queue.
Unfortunately, no distinction is made between the two cases, and the I/O
of the in-service queue is always plugged in case just a small I/O
request arrives. This commit draws this missing distinction and does not
perform harmful plugging.

This is a preparatory commit for commits that need to check only one of
the two main reasons for idling. This change should also improve the
quality of the code a little bit, by splitting a function that contains
very long, non-trivial and little related comments.

In asymmetric scenarios, i.e., when some bfq_queue or bfq_group needs to
be guaranteed a different bandwidth than other bfq_queues or bfq_groups,
these service guaranteed can be provided only by plugging I/O dispatch,
completely or partially, when the queue in service remains temporarily
empty. A case where asymmetry is particularly strong is when some active
bfq_queues belong to a higher-priority class than some other active
bfq_queues. Unfortunately, this important case is not considered at all
in the code for detecting asymmetric scenarios. This commit adds the
missing logic.

Before commit 18e5a57d79 ("block, bfq: postpone rq preparation to
insert or merge"), the destination queue for a request was chosen by a
different hook than the one that then inserted the request. So, between
the execution of the two hooks, the bic of the process generating the
request could happen to be redirected to a different bfq_queue. As a
consequence, the destination bfq_queue stored in the request could be
wrong. Such an event does not need to ba handled any longer.

With some unlucky sequences of events, the function bfq_updated_next_req
updates the current budget of a bfq_queue to a lower value than the
service received by the queue using such a budget. Unfortunately, if
this happens, then the return value of the function bfq_bfqq_budget_left
becomes inconsistent. This commit solves this problem by lower-bounding
the budget computed in bfq_updated_next_req to the service currently
charged to the queue.

To boost throughput on devices with internal queueing and in scenarios
where device idling is not strictly needed, bfq immediately starts
serving a new bfq_queue if the in-service bfq_queue remains without
pending I/O, even if new I/O may arrive soon for the latter queue. Then,
if such I/O actually arrives soon, bfq preempts the new in-service
bfq_queue so as to give the previous queue a chance to go on being
served (in case the previous queue should actually be the one to be
served, according to its timestamps).
However, the in-service bfq_queue, say Q, may also be without further
budget when it remains also pending I/O. Since bfq changes budgets
dynamically to fit the needs of bfq_queues, this happens more often than
one may expect. If this happens, then there is no point in trying to go
on serving Q when new I/O arrives for it soon: Q would be expired
immediately after being selected for service. This would only cause
useless overhead. This commit avoids such a useless selection.

The speed at which a bfq_queue receives I/O is one of the parameters by
which bfq decides whether the queue is soft real-time (i.e., whether the
queue contains the I/O of a soft real-time application). In particular,
when a bfq_queue remains without outstanding I/O requests, bfq computes
the minimum time instant, named soft_rt_next_start, at which the next
request of the queue may arrive for the queue to be deemed as soft real
time.
Unfortunately this filtering may cause problems with a queue in
interactive weight raising. In fact, such a queue may be conveying the
I/O needed to load a soft real-time application. The latter will
actually exhibit a soft real-time I/O pattern after it finally starts
doing its job. But, if soft_rt_next_start is updated for an interactive
bfq_queue, and the queue has received a lot of service before remaining
with no outstanding request (likely to happen on a fast device), then
soft_rt_next_start is assigned such a high value that, for a very long
time, the queue is prevented from being possibly considered as soft real
time.
This commit removes the updating of soft_rt_next_start for bfq_queues in
interactive weight raising.

("workqueue: Try to catch flush_work() without INIT_WORK().") [1].
Although that commit did not expect INIT_WORK(NULL) case, calling

Fix this problem by setting a no-op callback instead of NULL.

Except for blk_queue_split(), bio_split() is used for splitting bio too,
then the remained bio is often resubmit to queue via generic_make_request().
So the same queue enter recursion exits in this case too. Unfortunatley
commit cd4a4ae468 doesn't help this case.
This patch covers the above case by setting BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED before calling
q->make_request_fn.
In theory the per-bio flag is used to simulate one stack variable, it is
just fine to clear it after q->make_request_fn is returned. Especially
the same bio can't be submitted from another context.

* Small geometry cleanup from me.
- Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
blk-mq (me)
- Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)
- Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)
- Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
coming in the next release.

The Kconfig lexer supports special characters such as '.' and '/' in

support bare file paths in the source statement.
I do not see a good reason to complicate Kconfig for the room of
ambiguity.
The majority of code already surrounds file paths with double quotes,
and it makes sense since file paths are constant string literals.

The blk-iolatency controller measures the time from rq_qos_throttle() to
rq_qos_done_bio() and attributes this time to the first bio that needs
to create the request. This means if a bio is plug-mergeable or
bio-mergeable, it gets to bypass the blk-iolatency controller.
The recent series [1], to tag all bios w/ blkgs undermined how iolatency
was determining which bios it was charging and should process in
rq_qos_done_bio(). Because all bios are being tagged, this caused the
atomic_t for the struct rq_wait inflight count to underflow and result
in a stall.
This patch adds a new flag BIO_TRACKED to let controllers know that a
bio is going through the rq_qos path. blk-iolatency now checks if this
flag is set to see if it should process the bio in rq_qos_done_bio().
Overloading BLK_QUEUE_ENTERED works, but makes the flag rules confusing.
BIO_THROTTLED was another candidate, but the flag is set for all bios
that have gone through blk-throttle code. Overloading a flag comes with
the burden of making sure that when either implementation changes, a
change in setting rules for one doesn't cause a bug in the other. So
here, we unfortunately opt for adding a new flag.

For a zoned block device using mq-deadline, if a write request for a
zone is received while another write was already dispatched for the same
zone, dd_dispatch_request() will return NULL and the newly inserted
write request is kept in the scheduler queue waiting for the ongoing
zone write to complete. With this behavior, when no other request has
been dispatched, rq_list in blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests() is empty
and blk_mq_sched_mark_restart_hctx() not called. This in turn leads to
__blk_mq_free_request() call of blk_mq_sched_restart() to not run the
queue when the already dispatched write request completes. The newly
dispatched request stays stuck in the scheduler queue until eventually
another request is submitted.
This problem does not affect SCSI disk as the SCSI stack handles queue
restart on request completion. However, this problem is can be triggered
the nullblk driver with zoned mode enabled.
Fix this by always requesting a queue restart in dd_dispatch_request()
if no request was dispatched while WRITE requests are queued.

Between v3 [1] and v4 [2] of the blkg association series, the

the bio is formed before submit_bio(). When the request_queue goes away,
the blkgs supporting the request_queue are destroyed and then the
q->root_blkg is set to %NULL.
This patch adds a %NULL check to blkg_tryget_closest() to prevent the
NPE caused by the above. It also adds a guard to see if the
request_queue is dying when creating a blkg to prevent creating a blkg
for a dead request_queue.

time_in_queue can be calculated without part_round_stats, by adding the
duration of the I/O when the I/O ends (the value is almost as exact as the
previously calculated value, except that time for in-progress I/Os is not
counted).
io_ticks can be approximated by increasing the value when I/O is started

jiffy, the value is as exact as the previously calculated value. If the
I/Os take more than a jiffy, io_ticks can drift behind the previously

There are 3 ways blkg association can happen: association with the
current css, with the page css (swap), or from the wbc css (writeback).
This patch handles how association is done for the first case where we
are associating bsaed on the current css. If there is already a blkg
associated, the css will be reused and association will be redone as the
request_queue may have changed.

There are several scenarios where blkg_lookup_create() can fail such as
the blkcg dying, request_queue is dying, or simply being OOM. Most
handle this by simply falling back to the q->root_blkg and calling it a
day.
This patch implements the notion of closest blkg. During
blkg_lookup_create(), if it fails to create, return the closest blkg
found or the q->root_blkg. blkg_try_get_closest() is introduced and used
during association so a bio is always attached to a blkg.

To know when to create a blkg, the general pattern is to do a
blkg_lookup() and if that fails, lock and do the lookup again, and if
that fails finally create. It doesn't make much sense for everyone who
wants to do creation to write this themselves.
This changes blkg_lookup_create() to do locking and implement this
pattern. The old blkg_lookup_create() is renamed to
__blkg_lookup_create(). If a call site wants to do its own error
handling or already owns the queue lock, they can use
__blkg_lookup_create(). This will be used in upcoming patches.

The bio_blkcg() function turns out to be inconsistent and consequently
dangerous to use. The first part returns a blkcg where a reference is
owned by the bio meaning it does not need to be rcu protected. However,
the third case, the last line, is problematic:
return css_to_blkcg(task_css(current, io_cgrp_id));
This can race against task migration and the cgroup dying. It is also
semantically different as it must be called rcu protected and is
susceptible to failure when trying to get a reference to it.
This patch adds association ahead of calling bio_blkcg() rather than
after. This makes association a required and explicit step along the
code paths for calling bio_blkcg(). In blk-iolatency, association is
moved above the bio_blkcg() call to ensure it will not return %NULL.
BFQ uses the old bio_blkcg() function, but I do not want to address it
in this series due to the complexity. I have created a private version
documenting the inconsistency and noting not to use it.

After the direct dispatch corruption fix, we permanently disallow direct
dispatch of non read/write requests. This works fine off the normal IO
path, as they will be retried like any other failed direct dispatch
request. But for the blk_insert_cloned_request() that only DM uses to
bypass the bottom level scheduler, we always first attempt direct
dispatch. For some types of requests, that's now a permanent failure,
and no amount of retrying will make that succeed. This results in a
livelock.
Instead of making special cases for what we can direct issue, and now
having to deal with DM solving the livelock while still retaining a BUSY
condition feedback loop, always just add a request that has been through
->queue_rq() to the hardware queue dispatch list. These are safe to use
as no merging can take place there. Additionally, if requests do have
prepped data from drivers, we aren't dependent on them not sharing space
in the request structure to safely add them to the IO scheduler lists.
This basically reverts ffe81d4532 and is based on a patch from Ming,
but with the list insert case covered as well.

Since commit '2d29c9f89fcd ("block, bfq: improve asymmetric scenarios
detection")', if there are process groups with I/O requests waiting for
completion, then BFQ tags the scenario as 'asymmetric'. This detection
is needed for preserving service guarantees (for details, see comments
on the computation * of the variable asymmetric_scenario in the
function bfq_better_to_idle).
Unfortunately, commit '2d29c9f89fcd ("block, bfq: improve asymmetric
scenarios detection")' contains an error exactly in the updating of
the number of groups with I/O requests waiting for completion: if a
group has more than one descendant process, then the above number of
groups, which is renamed from num_active_groups to a more appropriate
num_groups_with_pending_reqs by this commit, may happen to be wrongly
decremented multiple times, namely every time one of the descendant
processes gets all its pending I/O requests completed.
A correct, complete solution should work as follows. Consider a group
that is inactive, i.e., that has no descendant process with pending
I/O inside BFQ queues. Then suppose that num_groups_with_pending_reqs
is still accounting for this group, because the group still has some
descendant process with some I/O request still in
flight. num_groups_with_pending_reqs should be decremented when the
in-flight request of the last descendant process is finally completed
(assuming that nothing else has changed for the group in the meantime,
in terms of composition of the group and active/inactive state of
child groups and processes). To accomplish this, an additional
pending-request counter must be added to entities, and must be
updated correctly.
To avoid this additional field and operations, this commit resorts to
the following tradeoff between simplicity and accuracy: for an
inactive group that is still counted in num_groups_with_pending_reqs,
this commit decrements num_groups_with_pending_reqs when the first
descendant process of the group remains with no request waiting for
completion.
This simplified scheme provides a fix to the unbalanced decrements
introduced by 2d29c9f89f. Since this error was also caused by lack
of comments on this non-trivial issue, this commit also adds related
comments.

If we attempt a direct issue to a SCSI device, and it returns BUSY, then
we queue the request up normally. However, the SCSI layer may have
already setup SG tables etc for this particular command. If we later
merge with this request, then the old tables are no longer valid. Once
we issue the IO, we only read/write the original part of the request,
not the new state of it.
This causes data corruption, and is most often noticed with the file
system complaining about the just read data being invalid:
[ 235.934465] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_iget:4831: inode #7142: comm dpkg-query: bad extra_isize 24937 (inode size 256)
because most of it is garbage...
This doesn't happen from the normal issue path, as we will simply defer
the request to the hardware queue dispatch list if we fail. Once it's on
the dispatch list, we never merge with it.
Fix this from the direct issue path by flagging the request as
REQ_NOMERGE so we don't change the size of it before issue.

Even if we have no waiters on any of the sbitmap_queue wait states, we
still have to loop every entry to check. We do this for every IO, so
the cost adds up.
Shift a bit of the cost to the slow path, when we actually have waiters.
Wrap prepare_to_wait_exclusive() and finish_wait(), so we can maintain
an internal count of how many are currently active. Then we can simply
check this count in sbq_wake_ptr() and not have to loop if we don't
have any sleepers.

blk-mq passes information to the hardware about any given request being
the last that we will issue in this sequence. The point is that hardware
can defer costly doorbell type writes to the last request. But if we run
into errors issuing a sequence of requests, we may never send the request
with bd->last == true set. For that case, we need a hook that tells the
hardware that nothing else is coming right now.
For failures returned by the drivers ->queue_rq() hook, the driver is
responsible for flushing pending requests, if it uses bd->last to
optimize that part. This works like before, no changes there.
