block: unalign call_single_data in struct request

2017-12-20T20:16:33Z

A previous change blindly added massive alignment to the call_single_data structure in struct request. This ballooned it in size from 296 to 320 bytes on my setup, for no valid reason at all. Use the unaligned struct __call_single_data variant instead.

block: fix blk_rq_append_bio

2017-12-18T20:55:43Z

Commit caa4b02476e3(blk-map: call blk_queue_bounce from blk_rq_append_bio) moves blk_queue_bounce() into blk_rq_append_bio(), but don't consider the fact that the bounced bio becomes invisible to caller since the parameter type is 'struct bio *'. Make it a pointer to a pointer to a bio, so the caller sees the right bio also after a bounce.

block: don't let passthrough IO go into .make_request_fn()

2017-12-18T20:55:43Z

Commit a8821f3f3("block: Improvements to bounce-buffer handling") tries to make sure that the bio to .make_request_fn won't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES, but ignores that passthrough I/O can use blk_queue_bounce() too. Especially, passthrough IO may not be sector-aligned, and the check of 'sectors < bio_sectors(*bio_orig)' inside __blk_queue_bounce() may become true even though the max bvec number doesn't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES, then cause the bio splitted, and the original passthrough bio is submited to generic_make_request(). This patch fixes this issue by checking if the bio is passthrough IO, and use bio_kmalloc() to allocate the cloned passthrough bio.

Pull core block layer updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main pull request for block storage for 4.15-rc1. Nothing out of the ordinary in here, and no API changes or anything like that. Just various new features for drivers, core changes, etc. In particular, this pull request contains: - A patch series from Bart, closing the whole on blk/scsi-mq queue quescing. - A series from Christoph, building towards hidden gendisks (for multipath) and ability to move bio chains around. - NVMe - Support for native multipath for NVMe (Christoph). - Userspace notifications for AENs (Keith). - Command side-effects support (Keith). - SGL support (Chaitanya Kulkarni) - FC fixes and improvements (James Smart) - Lots of fixes and tweaks (Various) - bcache - New maintainer (Michael Lyle) - Writeback control improvements (Michael) - Various fixes (Coly, Elena, Eric, Liang, et al) - lightnvm updates, mostly centered around the pblk interface (Javier, Hans, and Rakesh). - Removal of unused bio/bvec kmap atomic interfaces (me, Christoph) - Writeback series that fix the much discussed hundreds of millions of sync-all units. This goes all the way, as discussed previously (me). - Fix for missing wakeup on writeback timer adjustments (Yafang Shao). - Fix laptop mode on blk-mq (me). - {mq,name} tupple lookup for IO schedulers, allowing us to have alias names. This means you can use 'deadline' on both !mq and on mq (where it's called mq-deadline). (me). - blktrace race fix, oopsing on sg load (me). - blk-mq optimizations (me). - Obscure waitqueue race fix for kyber (Omar). - NBD fixes (Josef). - Disable writeback throttling by default on bfq, like we do on cfq (Luca Miccio). - Series from Ming that enable us to treat flush requests on blk-mq like any other request. This is a really nice cleanup. - Series from Ming that improves merging on blk-mq with schedulers, getting us closer to flipping the switch on scsi-mq again. - BFQ updates (Paolo). - blk-mq atomic flags memory ordering fixes (Peter Z). - Loop cgroup support (Shaohua). - Lots of minor fixes from lots of different folks, both for core and driver code" * 'for-4.15/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (294 commits) nvme: fix visibility of "uuid" ns attribute blk-mq: fixup some comment typos and lengths ide: ide-atapi: fix compile error with defining macro DEBUG blk-mq: improve tag waiting setup for non-shared tags brd: remove unused brd_mutex blk-mq: only run the hardware queue if IO is pending block: avoid null pointer dereference on null disk fs: guard_bio_eod() needs to consider partitions xtensa/simdisk: fix compile error nvme: expose subsys attribute to sysfs nvme: create 'slaves' and 'holders' entries for hidden controllers block: create 'slaves' and 'holders' entries for hidden gendisks nvme: also expose the namespace identification sysfs files for mpath nodes nvme: implement multipath access to nvme subsystems nvme: track shared namespaces nvme: introduce a nvme_ns_ids structure nvme: track subsystems block, nvme: Introduce blk_mq_req_flags_t block, scsi: Make SCSI quiesce and resume work reliably block: Add the QUEUE_FLAG_PREEMPT_ONLY request queue flag ...

block, nvme: Introduce blk_mq_req_flags_t

2017-11-11T02:53:25Z

Several block layer and NVMe core functions accept a combination of BLK_MQ_REQ_* flags through the 'flags' argument but there is no verification at compile time whether the right type of block layer flags is passed. Make it possible for sparse to verify this. This patch does not change any functionality.

block, scsi: Make SCSI quiesce and resume work reliably

2017-11-11T02:53:25Z

The contexts from which a SCSI device can be quiesced or resumed are: * Writing into /sys/class/scsi_device/*/device/state. * SCSI parallel (SPI) domain validation. * The SCSI device power management methods. See also scsi_bus_pm_ops. It is essential during suspend and resume that neither the filesystem state nor the filesystem metadata in RAM changes. This is why while the hibernation image is being written or restored that SCSI devices are quiesced. The SCSI core quiesces devices through scsi_device_quiesce() and scsi_device_resume(). In the SDEV_QUIESCE state execution of non-preempt requests is deferred. This is realized by returning BLKPREP_DEFER from inside scsi_prep_state_check() for quiesced SCSI devices. Avoid that a full queue prevents power management requests to be submitted by deferring allocation of non-preempt requests for devices in the quiesced state. This patch has been tested by running the following commands and by verifying that after each resume the fio job was still running: for ((i=0; i<10; i++)); do ( cd /sys/block/md0/md && while true; do [ "$( sync_action sleep 1 done ) & pids=($!) for d in /sys/class/block/sd*[a-z]; do bdev=${d#/sys/class/block/} hcil=$(readlink "$d/device") hcil=${hcil#../../../} echo 4 > "$d/queue/nr_requests" echo 1 > "/sys/class/scsi_device/$hcil/device/queue_depth" fio --name="$bdev" --filename="/dev/$bdev" --buffered=0 --bs=512 \ --rw=randread --ioengine=libaio --numjobs=4 --iodepth=16 \ --iodepth_batch=1 --thread --loops=$((2**31)) & pids+=($!) done sleep 1 echo "$(date) Hibernating ..." >>hibernate-test-log.txt systemctl hibernate sleep 10 kill "${pids[@]}" echo idle > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action wait echo "$(date) Done." >>hibernate-test-log.txt done Reported-by: Oleksandr Natalenko References: "I/O hangs after resuming from suspend-to-ram" (https://marc.info/?l=linux-block&m=150340235201348).

block: Add the QUEUE_FLAG_PREEMPT_ONLY request queue flag

2017-11-11T02:53:25Z

This flag will be used in the next patch to let the block layer core know whether or not a SCSI request queue has been quiesced. A quiesced SCSI queue namely only processes RQF_PREEMPT requests.
