writeback, memcg: Implement cgroup_writeback_by_id()

2019-08-27T15:22:38Z

Implement cgroup_writeback_by_id() which initiates cgroup writeback from bdi and memcg IDs. This will be used by memcg foreign inode flushing. v2: Use wb_get_lookup() instead of wb_get_create() to avoid creating spurious wbs. v3: Interpret 0 @nr as 1.25 * nr_dirty to implement best-effort flushing while avoding possible livelocks.

blkcg: implement REQ_CGROUP_PUNT

2019-07-10T15:00:57Z

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.

blkcg, writeback: Implement wbc_blkcg_css()

blkcg, writeback: Add wbc->no_cgroup_owner

2019-07-10T15:00:57Z

When writeback IOs are bounced through async layers, the IOs should only be accounted against the wbc from the original bdi writeback to avoid confusing cgroup inode ownership arbitration. Add wbc->no_cgroup_owner to allow disabling wbc cgroup owner accounting. This will be used make btrfs compression work well with cgroup IO control. v2: Renamed from no_wbc_acct to no_cgroup_owner and added comment as per Jan.

blkcg, writeback: Rename wbc_account_io() to wbc_account_cgroup_owner()

2019-07-10T15:00:57Z

wbc_account_io() does a very specific job - try to see which cgroup is actually dirtying an inode and transfer its ownership to the majority dirtier if needed. The name is too generic and confusing. Let's rename it to something more specific. Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blkcg: associate writeback bios with a blkg

2018-12-08T05:26:37Z

One of the goals of this series is to remove a separate reference to the css of the bio. This can and should be accessed via bio_blkcg(). In this patch, wbc_init_bio() now requires a bio to have a device associated with it. Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik Acked-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blkcg: revert blkcg cleanups series

2018-11-02T01:59:53Z

This reverts a series committed earlier due to null pointer exception bug report in [1]. It seems there are edge case interactions that I did not consider and will need some time to understand what causes the adverse interactions. The original series can be found in [2] with a follow up series in [3].

One of the goals of this series is to remove a separate reference to the css of the bio. This can and should be accessed via bio_blkcg. In this patch, the wbc_init_bio call is changed such that it must be called after a queue has been associated with the bio.

block/laptop_mode: Convert timers to use timer_setup()

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer() to pass the timer pointer explicitly.

Merge branch 'for-4.15/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

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 ...
