Simultaneously writing to a sequential zone of a zoned block device
from multiple contexts requires mutual exclusion for BIO issuing to
ensure that writes happen sequentially. However, even for a well
behaved user correctly implementing such synchronization, BIO plugging
may interfere and result in BIOs from the different contextx to be
reordered if plugging is done outside of the mutual exclusion section,
e.g. the plug was started by a function higher in the call chain than
the function issuing BIOs.
Context A Context B
| blk_start_plug()
| ...
| seq_write_zone()
| mutex_lock(zone)
| bio-0->bi_iter.bi_sector = zone->wp
| zone->wp += bio_sectors(bio-0)
| submit_bio(bio-0)
| bio-1->bi_iter.bi_sector = zone->wp
| zone->wp += bio_sectors(bio-1)
| submit_bio(bio-1)
| mutex_unlock(zone)
| return
| -----------------------> | seq_write_zone()
| mutex_lock(zone)
| bio-2->bi_iter.bi_sector = zone->wp
| zone->wp += bio_sectors(bio-2)
| submit_bio(bio-2)
| mutex_unlock(zone)
| <------------------------- |
| blk_finish_plug()
In the above example, despite the mutex synchronization ensuring the
correct BIO issuing order 0, 1, 2, context A BIOs 0 and 1 end up being
issued after BIO 2 of context B, when the plug is released with
blk_finish_plug().
While this problem can be addressed using the blk_flush_plug_list()
function (in the above example, the call must be inserted before the
zone mutex lock is released), a simple generic solution in the block
layer avoid this additional code in all zoned block device user code.
The simple generic solution implemented with this patch is to introduce
the internal helper function blk_mq_plug() to access the current
context plug on BIO submission. This helper returns the current plug
only if the target device is not a zoned block device or if the BIO to
be plugged is not a write operation. Otherwise, the caller context plug
is ignored and NULL returned, resulting is all writes to zoned block
device to never be plugged.

When a shared kthread needs to issue a bio for a cgroup, doing so
synchronously can lead to priority inversions as the kthread can be
trapped waiting for that cgroup. This patch implements
REQ_CGROUP_PUNT flag which makes submit_bio() punt the actual issuing
to a dedicated per-blkcg work item to avoid such priority inversions.
This will be used to fix priority inversions in btrfs compression and
should be generally useful as we grow filesystem support for
comprehensive IO control.

We discovered a problem in newer kernels where a disconnect of a NBD
device while the flush request was pending would result in a hang. This
is because the blk mq timeout handler does
if (!refcount_inc_not_zero(&rq->ref))
return true;
to determine if it's ok to run the timeout handler for the request.
Flush_rq's don't have a ref count set, so we'd skip running the timeout
handler for this request and it would just sit there in limbo forever.
Fix this by always setting the refcount of any request going through
blk_init_rq() to 1. I tested this with a nbd-server that dropped flush
requests to verify that it hung, and then tested with this patch to
verify I got the timeout as expected and the error handling kicked in.

In order to centralize the REQ_OP_XXX to string conversion which can be
used in the block layer and different places in the kernel like f2fs,
this patch adds a new helper function along with an array similar to the
one present in the blk-mq-debugfs.c.
We keep this helper functionality centralize under blk-core.c instead of
blk-mq-debugfs.c since blk-core.c is configured using CONFIG_BLOCK and
it will not be dependent on blk-mq-debugfs.c which is configured using
CONFIG_BLK_DEBUG_FS.
Next patch adjusts the code in the blk-mq-debugfs.c with newly

In theory, IO scheduler belongs to request queue, and the request pool
of sched tags belongs to the request queue too.
However, the current tags allocation interfaces are re-used for both
driver tags and sched tags, and driver tags is definitely host wide,
and doesn't belong to any request queue, same with its request pool.
So we need tagset instance for freeing request of sched tags.
Meantime, blk_mq_free_tag_set() often follows blk_cleanup_queue() in case
of non-BLK_MQ_F_TAG_SHARED, this way requires that request pool of sched
tags to be freed before calling blk_mq_free_tag_set().
Commit 47cdee29ef ("block: move blk_exit_queue into __blk_release_queue")
moves blk_exit_queue into __blk_release_queue for simplying the fast
path in generic_make_request(), then causes oops during freeing requests
of sched tags in __blk_release_queue().
Fix the above issue by move freeing request pool of sched tags into
blk_cleanup_queue(), this way is safe becasue queue has been frozen and no any
in-queue requests at that time. Freeing sched tags has to be kept in queue's
release handler becasue there might be un-completed dispatch activity
which might refer to sched tags.

The following is a description of a hang in blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait().
The hang happens on attempt to freeze a queue while another task does
queue unfreeze.
The root cause is an incorrect sequence of percpu_ref_resurrect() and
percpu_ref_kill() and as a result those two can be swapped:
CPU#0 CPU#1
---------------- -----------------
q1 = blk_mq_init_queue(shared_tags)
q2 = blk_mq_init_queue(shared_tags):
blk_mq_add_queue_tag_set(shared_tags):
blk_mq_update_tag_set_depth(shared_tags):
list_for_each_entry()
blk_mq_freeze_queue(q1)
> percpu_ref_kill()
> blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait()
blk_cleanup_queue(q1)
blk_mq_freeze_queue(q1)
> percpu_ref_kill()
^^^^^^ freeze_depth can't guarantee the order
blk_mq_unfreeze_queue()
> percpu_ref_resurrect()
> blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait()
^^^^^^ Hang here!!!!
This wrong sequence raises kernel warning:
percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm called more than once on blk_queue_usage_counter_release!
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 11854 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:336 percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm+0x99/0xb0
But the most unpleasant effect is a hang of a blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait(),
which waits for a zero of a q_usage_counter, which never happens
because percpu-ref was reinited (instead of being killed) and stays in
PERCPU state forever.
How to reproduce:
- "insmod null_blk.ko shared_tags=1 nr_devices=0 queue_mode=2"
- cpu0: python Script.py 0; taskset the corresponding process running on cpu0
- cpu1: python Script.py 1; taskset the corresponding process running on cpu1

Once blk_cleanup_queue() returns, tags shouldn't be used any more,
because blk_mq_free_tag_set() may be called. Commit 45a9c9d909
("blk-mq: Fix a use-after-free") fixes this issue exactly.
However, that commit introduces another issue. Before 45a9c9d909,
we are allowed to run queue during cleaning up queue if the queue's
kobj refcount is held. After that commit, queue can't be run during
queue cleaning up, otherwise oops can be triggered easily because
some fields of hctx are freed by blk_mq_free_queue() in blk_cleanup_queue().
We have invented ways for addressing this kind of issue before, such as:
8dc765d438 ("SCSI: fix queue cleanup race before queue initialization is done")
c2856ae2f3 ("blk-mq: quiesce queue before freeing queue")
But still can't cover all cases, recently James reports another such
kind of issue:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=155389088124782&w=2
This issue can be quite hard to address by previous way, given
scsi_run_queue() may run requeues for other LUNs.
Fixes the above issue by freeing hctx's resources in its release handler, and this
way is safe becasue tags isn't needed for freeing such hctx resource.
This approach follows typical design pattern wrt. kobject's release handler.

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.

We want to convert to per-cpu in_flight counters.
The function part_round_stats needs the in_flight counter every jiffy, it
would be too costly to sum all the percpu variables every jiffy, so it
must be deleted. part_round_stats is used to calculate two counters -
time_in_queue and io_ticks.
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

I/Os take more than a jiffy, io_ticks can drift behind the previously

I ran into a bug where after hibernation due to incompatible

were. Adding req->cmd_flags help make the problem easier to

If we are issuing a list of requests, we know if we're at the last one.
If we fail issuing, ensure that we call ->commits_rqs() to flush any
potential previous requests.

This isn't exactly the same as the previous count, as it includes

more than the threshold (16) queued up, flush it. It's not worth it
to have an expensive list loop for this.

blk_poll() has always kept spinning until it found an IO. This is
fine for SYNC polling, since we need to find one request we have
pending, but in preparation for ASYNC polling it can be beneficial
to just check if we have any entries available or not.
Existing callers are converted to pass in 'spin == true', to retain
the old behavior.

If we want to support async IO polling, then we have to allow finding
completions that aren't just for the one we are looking for. Always pass
in -1 to the mq_ops->poll() helper, and have that return how many events
were found in this poll loop.

For the synchronous I/O path case (read(), write() etc system calls), a
BIO I/O priority is not initialized until the execution of
blk_init_request_from_bio() when the BIO is submitted and a request
initialized for the BIO execution. This is due to the ki_ioprio field of
the struct kiocb defined on stack being always initialized to
IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE, regardless of the calling process I/O context ioprio
value set with ioprio_set(). This late initialization can result in the
BIO being merged to pending requests even when the I/O priorities
differ.
Fix this by initializing the ki_iopriority field of on stack struct
kiocb using the get_current_ioprio() helper, ensuring that all BIOs
allocated and submitted for the system call execution see the correct
intended I/O priority early. With this, since a BIO I/O priority is
always set to the intended effective value for both the sync and async
path, blk_init_request_from_bio() can be simplified.

Growing in size a high priority request by merging it with a lower
priority BIO or request will increase the request execution time. This
is the opposite result of the desired effect of high I/O priorities,
namely getting low I/O latencies. Prevent merging of requests and BIOs
that have different I/O priorities to fix this.

bio->bi_ioc is never set so always NULL. Remove references to it in
bio_disassociate_task() and in rq_ioc() and delete this field from
struct bio. With this change, rq_ioc() always returns
current->io_context without the need for a bio argument. Further
simplify the code and make it more readable by also removing this
helper, which also allows to simplify blk_mq_sched_assign_ioc() by
removing its bio argument.

Merge tag 'v4.20-rc3' into for-4.21/block
Merge in -rc3 to resolve a few conflicts, but also to get a few

Various spots check for q->mq_ops being non-NULL, but provide
a helper to do this instead.
Where the ->mq_ops != NULL check is redundant, remove it.
Since mq == rq-based now that legacy is gone, get rid of the
queue_is_rq_based() and just use queue_is_mq() everywhere.
