Now discard merge works, add plug for blkdev_issue_discard. This will help

request is split to small requests, and if correct plug is added, such small
requests can be merged in low layer.

Linus Torvalds d206e09036 Merge branch 'for-3.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on cgroup side.  The big changes are focused on
  making cgroup hierarchy handling saner.

   - cgroup_rmdir() had peculiar semantics - it allowed cgroup
     destruction to be vetoed by individual controllers and tried to
     drain refcnt synchronously.  The vetoing never worked properly and
     caused good deal of contortions in cgroup.  memcg was the last
     reamining user.  Michal Hocko removed the usage and cgroup_rmdir()
     path has been simplified significantly.  This was done in a
     separate branch so that the memcg people can base further memcg
     changes on top.

   - The above allowed cleaning up cgroup lifecycle management and
     implementation of generic cgroup iterators which are used to
     improve hierarchy support.

   - cgroup_freezer updated to allow migration in and out of a frozen
     cgroup and handle hierarchy.  If a cgroup is frozen, all descendant
     cgroups are frozen.

   - netcls_cgroup and netprio_cgroup updated to handle hierarchy
     properly.

   - Various fixes and cleanups.

   - Two merge commits.  One to pull in memcg and rmdir cleanups (needed
     to build iterators).  The other pulled in cgroup/for-3.7-fixes for
     device_cgroup fixes so that further device_cgroup patches can be
     stacked on top."

commit bea8c150a7 ("memcg: fix hotplugged memory zone oops") in master

Diego Calleja 5f6f38dbb0 partitions: enable EFI/GPT support by default
The Kconfig currently enables MSDOS partitions by default because they
are assumed to be essential, but it's necessary to enable "advanced
partition selection" in order to get GPT support. IMO GPT partitions
are becoming common enought to deserve the same treatment MSDOS
partitions get.

(Side note: I got bit by a disk that had MSDOS and GPT partition
tables, but for some reason the MSDOS table was different from the
GPT one. I was stupid enought to disable "advanced partition
selection" in my .config, which disabled GPT partitioning and made
my btrfs pool unbootable because it couldn't find the partitions)

Bart Van Assche 24faf6f604 block: Make blk_cleanup_queue() wait until request_fn finished
Some request_fn implementations, e.g. scsi_request_fn(), unlock
the queue lock internally. This may result in multiple threads
executing request_fn for the same queue simultaneously. Keep
track of the number of active request_fn calls and make sure that
blk_cleanup_queue() waits until all active request_fn invocations
have finished. A block driver may start cleaning up resources
needed by its request_fn as soon as blk_cleanup_queue() finished,
so blk_cleanup_queue() must wait for all outstanding request_fn
invocations to finish.

Bart Van Assche 704605711e block: Avoid scheduling delayed work on a dead queue
Running a queue must continue after it has been marked dying until
it has been marked dead. So the function blk_run_queue_async() must
not schedule delayed work after blk_cleanup_queue() has marked a queue
dead. Hence add a test for that queue state in blk_run_queue_async()
and make sure that queue_unplugged() invokes that function with the
queue lock held. This avoids that the queue state can change after
it has been tested and before mod_delayed_work() is invoked. Drop
the queue dying test in queue_unplugged() since it is now
superfluous: __blk_run_queue() already tests whether or not the
queue is dead.

Bart Van Assche c246e80d86 block: Avoid that request_fn is invoked on a dead queue
A block driver may start cleaning up resources needed by its
request_fn as soon as blk_cleanup_queue() finished, so request_fn
must not be invoked after draining finished. This is important
when blk_run_queue() is invoked without any requests in progress.
As an example, if blk_drain_queue() and scsi_run_queue() run in
parallel, blk_drain_queue() may have finished all requests after
scsi_run_queue() has taken a SCSI device off the starved list but
before that last function has had a chance to run the queue.

Bart Van Assche 3f3299d5c0 block: Rename queue dead flag
QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD is used to indicate that queuing new requests must
stop. After this flag has been set queue draining starts. However,
during the queue draining phase it is still safe to invoke the
queue's request_fn, so QUEUE_FLAG_DYING is a better name for this
flag.

This patch has been generated by running the following command
over the kernel source tree:

git grep -lEw 'blk_queue_dead|QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD' |

Roland Dreier 893d290f1d block: Don't access request after it might be freed
After we've done __elv_add_request() and __blk_run_queue() in
blk_execute_rq_nowait(), the request might finish and be freed
immediately.  Therefore checking if the type is REQ_TYPE_PM_RESUME
isn't safe afterwards, because if it isn't, rq might be gone.
Instead, check beforehand and stash the result in a temporary.

This fixes crashes in blk_execute_rq_nowait() I get occasionally when
running with lots of memory debugging options enabled -- I think this
race is usually harmless because the window for rq to be reallocated
is so small.

Stephen Warren d33b98fc82 block: partition: msdos: provide UUIDs for partitions
The MSDOS/MBR partition table includes a 32-bit unique ID, often referred
to as the NT disk signature.  When combined with a partition number within
the table, this can form a unique ID similar in concept to EFI/GPT's
partition UUID.  Constructing and recording this value in struct
partition_meta_info allows MSDOS partitions to be referred to on the
kernel command-line using the following syntax:

root=PARTUUID=0002dd75-01

This will allow other types of UUID to be stored here, aside from true
UUIDs.  This also simplifies code that uses this field, since it's usually
constructed from a, used as a, or compared to other, strings.

Note: A simplistic approach here would be to set uuid_str[36]=0 whenever a
/PARTNROFF option was found to be present.  However, this modifies the
input string, and causes subsequent calls to devt_from_partuuid() not to
see the /PARTNROFF option, which causes different results.  In order to
avoid misleading future maintainers, this parameter is marked const.

Shaohua Li 3d106fba2e block CFQ: avoid moving request to different queue
request is queued in cfqq->fifo list. Looks it's possible we are moving a
request from one cfqq to another in request merge case. In such case, adjusting
the fifo list order doesn't make sense and is impossible if we don't iterate
the whole fifo list.

My test does hit one case the two cfqq are different, but didn't cause kernel
crash, maybe it's because fifo list isn't used frequently. Anyway, from the
code logic, this is buggy.

I thought we can re-enable the recusive merge logic after this is fixed.

From above messages,we can find rq[W 7493144 + 104] and rq[W

Because the bio order is:

The bio(7493144) first and bio(7493120) later.So the subsequent
bios will be divided into two parts.
When flushing plug-list,because elv_attempt_insert_merge only support
backmerge,not supporting frontmerge.
So rq[7493120 + 24] can't merge with rq[7493144 + 104].

From my test,i found those situation can count 25% in our system.
Using this patch, there is no this situation.

Jun'ichi Nomura 65c77fd9e8 blkcg: stop iteration early if root_rl is the only request list
__blk_queue_next_rl() finds next request list based on blkg_list
while skipping root_blkg in the list.
OTOH, root_rl is special as it may exist even without root_blkg.

Though the later part of the function handles such a case correctly,
exiting early is good for readability of the code.

Jun'ichi Nomura 65635cbc37 blkcg: Fix use-after-free of q->root_blkg and q->root_rl.blkg
blk_put_rl() does not call blkg_put() for q->root_rl because we
don't take request list reference on q->root_blkg.
However, if root_blkg is once attached then detached (freed),
blk_put_rl() is confused by the bogus pointer in q->root_blkg.

For example, with !CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING &&
CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED,
switching IO scheduler from cfq to deadline will cause system stall
after the following warning with 3.6:

Pull cgroup hierarchy update from Tejun Heo:
 "Currently, different cgroup subsystems handle nested cgroups
  completely differently.  There's no consistency among subsystems and
  the behaviors often are outright broken.

  People at least seem to agree that the broken hierarhcy behaviors need
  to be weeded out if any progress is gonna be made on this front and
  that the fallouts from deprecating the broken behaviors should be
  acceptable especially given that the current behaviors don't make much
  sense when nested.

  This patch makes cgroup emit warning messages if cgroups for
  subsystems with broken hierarchy behavior are nested to prepare for
  fixing them in the future.  This was put in a separate branch because
  more related changes were expected (didn't make it this round) and the

Linus Torvalds 033d9959ed Merge branch 'for-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1.  A lot of activities this
  round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.

   * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item.  The handling of the
     timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
     cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors.  delayed_work is
     updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
     expected.

   * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
     mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
     timer+work usages.  mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.

     These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
     and behave like timer which is executed with process context.

   * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
     is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
     half-broken under certain circumstances.  This problem doesn't
     exist for non-reentrant workqueues.  While non-reentrancy check
     isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
     across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
     the overhead isn't too high.

     All workqueues are made non-reentrant.  This removes the
     distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
     flush_[delayed_]_work_sync().  The former is now as strong as the
     latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
     execution of any previous queueing on return.

   * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
     hotplug handling significantly.

   * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU
     hotplug.

  There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from
  tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from
  wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them."

Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts
were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new
code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts.

Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more.

Stefan Weinhuber 46e8894786 s390/partitions: make partition detection independent from DASD ioctls
In some usage scenarios it is desireable to work with disk images or
virtualized DASD devices. One problem that prevents such applications
is the partition detection in ibm.c. Currently it works only for
devices that support the BIODASDINFO2 ioctl, in other words, it only
works for devices that belong to the DASD device driver.

The information gained from the BIODASDINFO2 ioctl is only for a small
set of legacy cases abolutely necessary. All current VOL1, LNX1 and
CMS1 type of disk labels can be interpreted correctly without this
information, as long as the generic HDIO_GETGEO ioctl works and
provides a correct disk geometry.

This patch makes the ibm.c partition detection as independent as
possible from the BIODASDINFO2 ioctl. Only the following two cases are
still restricted to real DASDs:
- An FBA DASD, or LDL formatted ECKD DASD without any disk label.
- An old style LNX1 label (without large volume support) on a disk
  with inconsistent device geometry.

Tejun Heo 60ea8226cb block: fix request_queue->flags initialization
A queue newly allocated with blk_alloc_queue_node() has only
QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS set.  For request-based drivers,
blk_init_allocated_queue() is called and q->queue_flags is overwritten
with QUEUE_FLAG_DEFAULT which doesn't include BYPASS even though the
initial bypass is still in effect.

In blk_init_allocated_queue(), or QUEUE_FLAG_DEFAULT to q->queue_flags
instead of overwriting.

Tejun Heo 749fefe677 block: lift the initial queue bypass mode on blk_register_queue() instead of blk_init_allocated_queue()
b82d4b197c ("blkcg: make request_queue bypassing on allocation") made
request_queues bypassed on allocation to avoid switching on and off
bypass mode on a queue being initialized.  Some drivers allocate and
then destroy a lot of queues without fully initializing them and
incurring bypass latency overhead on each of them could add upto
significant overhead.

Unfortunately, blk_init_allocated_queue() is never used by queues of
bio-based drivers, which means that all bio-based driver queues are in
bypass mode even after initialization and registration complete
successfully.

Due to the limited way request_queues are used by bio drivers, this
problem is hidden pretty well but it shows up when blk-throttle is
used in combination with a bio-based driver.  Trying to configure
(echoing to cgroupfs file) blk-throttle for a bio-based driver hangs
indefinitely in blkg_conf_prep() waiting for bypass mode to end.

This patch moves the initial blk_queue_bypass_end() call from
blk_init_allocated_queue() to blk_register_queue() which is called for
any userland-visible queues regardless of its type.

I believe this is correct because I don't think there is any block
driver which needs or wants working elevator and blk-cgroup on a queue
which isn't visible to userland.  If there are such users, we need a
different solution.

Martin K. Petersen 4363ac7c13 block: Implement support for WRITE SAME
The WRITE SAME command supported on some SCSI devices allows the same
block to be efficiently replicated throughout a block range. Only a
single logical block is transferred from the host and the storage device
writes the same data to all blocks described by the I/O.

This patch implements support for WRITE SAME in the block layer. The
blkdev_issue_write_same() function can be used by filesystems and block
drivers to replicate a buffer across a block range. This can be used to
efficiently initialize software RAID devices, etc.

Tejun Heo 8c7f6edbda cgroup: mark subsystems with broken hierarchy support and whine if cgroups are nested for them
Currently, cgroup hierarchy support is a mess.  cpu related subsystems
behave correctly - configuration, accounting and control on a parent
properly cover its children.  blkio and freezer completely ignore
hierarchy and treat all cgroups as if they're directly under the root
cgroup.  Others show yet different behaviors.

These differing interpretations of cgroup hierarchy make using cgroup
confusing and it impossible to co-mount controllers into the same
hierarchy and obtain sane behavior.

Eventually, we want full hierarchy support from all subsystems and
probably a unified hierarchy.  Users using separate hierarchies
expecting completely different behaviors depending on the mounted
subsystem is deterimental to making any progress on this front.

This patch adds cgroup_subsys.broken_hierarchy and sets it to %true
for controllers which are lacking in hierarchy support.  The goal of
this patch is two-fold.

* Move users away from using hierarchy on currently non-hierarchical
  subsystems, so that implementing proper hierarchy support on those
  doesn't surprise them.

* Keep track of which controllers are broken how and nudge the
  subsystems to implement proper hierarchy support.

For now, start with a single warning message.  We can whine louder
later on.

v2: Fixed a typo spotted by Michal. Warning message updated.

v3: Updated memcg part so that it doesn't generate warning in the
    cases where .use_hierarchy=false doesn't make the behavior
    different from root.use_hierarchy=true.  Fixed a typo spotted by
    Glauber.

v4: Check ->broken_hierarchy after cgroup creation is complete so that
    ->create() can affect the result per Michal.  Dropped unnecessary
    memcg root handling per Michal.

Yi Zou 37d7b34f05 block: rate-limit the error message from failing commands
When performing a cable pull test w/ active stress I/O using fio over
a dual port Intel 82599 FCoE CNA, w/ 256LUNs on one port and about 32LUNs
on the other, it is observed that the system becomes not usable due to
scsi-ml being busy printing the error messages for all the failing commands.
I don't believe this problem is specific to FCoE and these commands are
anyway failing due to link being down (DID_NO_CONNECT), just rate-limit
the messages here to solve this issue.

v2->v1: use __ratelimit() as Tomas Henzl mentioned as the proper way for
rate-limit per function. However, in this case, the failed i/o gets to
blk_end_request_err() and then blk_update_request(), which also has to
be rate-limited, as added in the v2 of this patch.

Tejun Heo 41f63c5359 workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of cancel + queue
Convert delayed_work users doing cancel_delayed_work() followed by
queue_delayed_work() to mod_delayed_work().

Most conversions are straight-forward.  Ones worth mentioning are,

* drivers/edac/edac_mc.c: edac_mc_workq_setup() converted to always
  use mod_delayed_work() and cancel loop in
  edac_mc_reset_delay_period() is dropped.

* drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c: No need to remember whether
  watchdog is active or not.  @fan_watchdog_active and related code
  dropped.

* drivers/power/charger-manager.c: Seemingly a lot of
  delayed_work_pending() abuse going on here.
  [delayed_]work_pending() are unsynchronized and racy when used like
  this.  I converted one instance in fullbatt_handler().  Please
  conver the rest so that it invokes workqueue APIs for the intended
  target state rather than trying to game work item pending state
  transitions.  e.g. if timer should be modified - call
  mod_delayed_work(), canceled - call cancel_delayed_work[_sync]().

* drivers/thermal/thermal_sys.c: thermal_zone_device_set_polling()
  simplified.  Note that round_jiffies() calls in this function are
  meaningless.  round_jiffies() work on absolute jiffies not delta
  delay used by delayed_work.

v2: Tomi pointed out that __cancel_delayed_work() users can't be
    safely converted to mod_delayed_work().  They could be calling it
    from irq context and if that happens while delayed_work_timer_fn()
    is running, it could deadlock.  __cancel_delayed_work() users are
    dropped.

Paolo Bonzini c6e666345e block: split discard into aligned requests
When a disk has large discard_granularity and small max_discard_sectors,
discards are not split with optimal alignment.  In the limit case of
discard_granularity == max_discard_sectors, no request could be aligned
correctly, so in fact you might end up with no discarded logical blocks
at all.

Another example that helps showing the condition in the patch is with
discard_granularity == 64, max_discard_sectors == 128.  A request that is
submitted for 256 sectors 2..257 will be split in two: 2..129, 130..257.
However, only 2 aligned blocks out of 3 are included in the request;
128..191 may be left intact and not discarded.  With this patch, the
first request will be truncated to ensure good alignment of what's left,
and the split will be 2..127, 128..255, 256..257.  The patch will also
take into account the discard_alignment.

At most one extra request will be introduced, because the first request
will be reduced by at most granularity-1 sectors, and granularity
must be less than max_discard_sectors.  Subsequent requests will run
on round_down(max_discard_sectors, granularity) sectors, as in the
current code.

Vivek Goyal c83f6bf98d block: add partition resize function to blkpg ioctl
Add a new operation code (BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION) to the BLKPG ioctl that
allows altering the size of an existing partition, even if it is currently
in use.

This patch converts hd_struct->nr_sects into sequence counter because
One might extend a partition while IO is happening to it and update of
nr_sects can be non-atomic on 32bit machines with 64bit sector_t. This
can lead to issues like reading inconsistent size of a partition. Sequence
counter have been used so that readers don't have to take bdev mutex lock
as we call sector_in_part() very frequently.

Now all the access to hd_struct->nr_sects should happen using sequence
counter read/update helper functions part_nr_sects_read/part_nr_sects_write.
There is one exception though, set_capacity()/get_capacity(). I think
theoritically race should exist there too but this patch does not
modify set_capacity()/get_capacity() due to sheer number of call sites
and I am afraid that change might break something. I have left that as a
TODO item. We can handle it later if need be. This patch does not introduce
any new races as such w.r.t set_capacity()/get_capacity().

v2: Add CONFIG_LBDAF test to UP preempt case as suggested by Phillip.

I'm using the old-fashioned 'dump' backup tool, and I noticed that it spews the
below warning as of 3.5-rc1 and later (3.4 is fine):

Reproducing is easy, I can hit it on a KVM system with a very basic
config (x86_64 make defconfig + enable the drivers needed). To hit it,
just install dump (on debian/ubuntu, not sure what the package might be
called on Fedora), and:

dump -o -f /tmp/foo /

You'll see the warning in dmesg once it forks off the I/O process and
starts dumping filesystem contents.

I bisected it down to the following commit:

    block: add io_context->active_ref

    Currently ioc->nr_tasks is used to decide two things - whether an ioc
    is done issuing IOs and whether it's shared by multiple tasks.  This
    patch separate out the first into ioc->active_ref, which is acquired
    and released using {get|put}_io_context_active() respectively.

    This will be used to associate bio's with a given task.  This patch

Tejun, is the right thing here to add back the init, or should something else

Mike Snitzer fe86cdcef7 block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking drivers
blk_set_stacking_limits is intended to allow stacking drivers to build
up the limits of the stacked device based on the underlying devices'
limits.  But defaulting 'max_sectors' to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS (1024)
doesn't allow the stacking driver to inherit a max_sectors larger than
1024 -- due to blk_stack_limits' use of min_not_zero.

It is now clear that this artificial limit is getting in the way so
change blk_set_stacking_limits's max_sectors to UINT_MAX (which allows
stacking drivers like dm-multipath to inherit 'max_sectors' from the
underlying paths).

Tejun Heo a051661ca6 blkcg: implement per-blkg request allocation
Currently, request_queue has one request_list to allocate requests
from regardless of blkcg of the IO being issued.  When the unified
request pool is used up, cfq proportional IO limits become meaningless
- whoever grabs the next request being freed wins the race regardless
of the configured weights.

This can be easily demonstrated by creating a blkio cgroup w/ very low
weight, put a program which can issue a lot of random direct IOs there
and running a sequential IO from a different cgroup.  As soon as the
request pool is used up, the sequential IO bandwidth crashes.

This patch implements per-blkg request_list.  Each blkg has its own
request_list and any IO allocates its request from the matching blkg
making blkcgs completely isolated in terms of request allocation.

* Root blkcg uses the request_list embedded in each request_queue,
  which was renamed to @q->root_rl from @q->rq.  While making blkcg rl
  handling a bit harier, this enables avoiding most overhead for root
  blkcg.

* Queue fullness is properly per request_list but bdi isn't blkcg
  aware yet, so congestion state currently just follows the root
  blkcg.  As writeback isn't aware of blkcg yet, this works okay for
  async congestion but readahead may get the wrong signals.  It's
  better than blkcg completely collapsing with shared request_list but
  needs to be improved with future changes.

* After this change, each block cgroup gets a full request pool making
  resource consumption of each cgroup higher.  This makes allowing
  non-root users to create cgroups less desirable; however, note that
  allowing non-root users to directly manage cgroups is already
  severely broken regardless of this patch - each block cgroup
  consumes kernel memory and skews IO weight (IO weights are not
  hierarchical).

v2: queue-sysfs.txt updated and patch description udpated as suggested
    by Vivek.

v3: blk_get_rl() wasn't checking error return from
    blkg_lookup_create() and may cause oops on lookup failure.  Fix it
    by falling back to root_rl on blkg lookup failures.  This problem
    was spotted by Rakesh Iyer <rni@google.com>.

v4: Updated to accomodate 458f27a982 "block: Avoid missed wakeup in
    request waitqueue".  blk_drain_queue() now wakes up waiters on all
    blkg->rl on the target queue.

Currently, there are two request allocation functions - get_request()
and get_request_wait().  The former tries to allocate a request once
and the latter keeps retrying until it succeeds.  The latter wraps the
former and keeps retrying until allocation succeeds.

The combination of two functions deliver fallible non-wait allocation,
fallible wait allocation and unfailing wait allocation.  However,
given that forward progress is guaranteed, fallible wait allocation
isn't all that useful and in fact nobody uses it.

This patch simplifies the interface as follows.

* get_request() is renamed to __get_request() and is only used by the
  wrapper function.

* get_request_wait() is renamed to get_request().  It now takes
  @gfp_mask and retries iff it contains %__GFP_WAIT.

nothing prevents new requests to be queued after the logic determines
that the queue is drained.

Jan Kara 6d93592807 scsi: Silence unnecessary warnings about ioctl to partition
Sometimes, warnings about ioctls to partition happen often enough that they
form majority of the warnings in the kernel log and users complain. In some
cases warnings are about ioctls such as SG_IO so it's not good to get rid of
the warnings completely as they can ease debugging of userspace problems
when ioctl is refused.

Since I have seen warnings from lots of commands, including some proprietary
userspace applications, I don't think disallowing the ioctls for processes
with CAP_SYS_RAWIO will happen in the near future if ever. So lets just
stop warning for processes with CAP_SYS_RAWIO for which ioctl is allowed.

Asias He 5e5cfac0c6 block: Mitigate lock unbalance caused by lock switching
Commit 777eb1bf15 disconnects externally
supplied queue_lock before blk_drain_queue(). Switching the lock would
introduce lock unbalance because theads which have taken the external
lock might unlock the internal lock in the during the queue drain. This
patch mitigate this by disconnecting the lock after the queue draining
since queue draining makes a lot of request_queue users go away.

However, please note, this patch only makes the problem less likely to
happen. Anyone who still holds a ref might try to issue a new request on
a dead queue after the blk_cleanup_queue() finishes draining, the lock
unbalance might still happen in this case.

To quote Tejun:

  Ah, okay, freed_request() wakes up single waiter with the assumption
  that after the wakeup there will at least be one successful allocation
  which in turn will continue the wakeup chain until the wait list is
  empty - ie. waiter wakeup is dependent on successful request
  allocation happening after each wakeup.  With queue marked dead, any
  woken up waiter fails the allocation path, so the wakeup chaining is
  lost and we're left with hung waiters. What we need is wake_up_all()
  after drain completion.

This patch fixes the missed wakeup by waking up all the theads which
are sleeping on wait queue after queue drain.

blkg_destroy() caches @blkg->q in local variable @q.  While there are
two places which needs @blkg->q, only lockdep_assert_held() used the
local variable leading to unused local variable warning if lockdep is

Tejun Heo 9b2ea86bc9 blkcg: fix blkg_alloc() failure path
When policy data allocation fails in the middle, blkg_alloc() invokes
blkg_free() to destroy the half constructed blkg.  This ends up
calling pd_exit_fn() on policy datas which didn't go through
pd_init_fn().  Fix it by making blkg_alloc() call pd_init_fn()
immediately after each policy data allocation.

Tejun Heo ffea73fc72 block: blkcg_policy_cfq shouldn't be used if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED
cfq may be built w/ or w/o blkcg support depending on
CONFIG_CFQ_CGROUP_IOSCHED.  If blkcg support is disabled, most of
related code is ifdef'd out but some part is left dangling -
blkcg_policy_cfq is left zero-filled and blkcg_policy_[un]register()
calls are made on it.

Feeding zero filled policy to blkcg_policy_register() is incorrect and
triggers the following WARN_ON() if CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP &&
!CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring all blkcg support code is
inside CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.

* blkcg_policy_cfq declaration and blkg_to_cfqg() definition are moved
  inside the first CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED block.  __maybe_unused is
  dropped from blkcg_policy_cfq decl.

* blkcg_deactivate_poilcy() invocation is moved inside ifdef.  This
  also makes the activation logic match cfq_init_queue().

* All blkcg_policy_[un]register() invocations are moved inside ifdef.

Tejun Heo a637120e49 blkcg: use radix tree to index blkgs from blkcg
blkg lookup is currently performed by traversing linked list anchored
at blkcg->blkg_list.  This is very unscalable and with blk-throttle
enabled and enough request queues on the system, this can get very
ugly quickly (blk-throttle performs look up on every bio submission).

This patch makes blkcg use radix tree to index blkgs combined with
simple last-looked-up hint.  This is mostly identical to how icqs are
indexed from ioc.

Note that because __blkg_lookup() may be invoked without holding queue
lock, hint is only updated from __blkg_lookup_create().  Due to cfq's
cfqq caching, this makes hint updates overly lazy.  This will be
improved with scheduled blkcg aware request allocation.

Tejun Heo aaf7c68068 block: fix elvpriv allocation failure handling
Request allocation is mempool backed to guarantee forward progress
under memory pressure; unfortunately, this property got broken while
adding elvpriv data.  Failures during elvpriv allocation, including
ioc and icq creation failures, currently make get_request() fail as
whole.  There's no forward progress guarantee for these allocations -
they may fail indefinitely under memory pressure stalling IO and
deadlocking the system.

This patch updates get_request() such that elvpriv allocation failure
doesn't make the whole function fail.  If elvpriv allocation fails,
the allocation is degraded into !ELVPRIV.  This will force the request
to ELEVATOR_INSERT_BACK disturbing scheduling but elvpriv alloc
failures should be rare (nothing is per-request) and anything is
better than deadlocking.

Tejun Heo f95a04afa8 blkcg: embed struct blkg_policy_data in policy specific data
Currently blkg_policy_data carries policy specific data as char flex
array instead of being embedded in policy specific data.  This was
forced by oddities around blkg allocation which are all gone now.

This patch makes blkg_policy_data embedded in policy specific data -
throtl_grp and cfq_group so that it's more conventional and consistent
with how io_cq is handled.

* blkcg_policy->pdata_size is renamed to ->pd_size.

* Functions which used to take void *pdata now takes struct
  blkg_policy_data *pd.

* blkg_to_pdata/pdata_to_blkg() updated to blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg().

* Dummy struct blkg_policy_data definition added.  Dummy
  pdata_to_blkg() definition was unused and inconsistent with the
  non-dummy version - correct dummy pd_to_blkg() added.

* throtl and cfq updated accordingly.

* As dummy blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg() are provided,
  blkg_to_cfqg/cfqg_to_blkg() don't need to be ifdef'd.  Moved outside
  ifdef block.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional change.

Tejun Heo a2b1693bac blkcg: implement per-queue policy activation
All blkcg policies were assumed to be enabled on all request_queues.
Due to various implementation obstacles, during the recent blkcg core
updates, this was temporarily implemented as shooting down all !root
blkgs on elevator switch and policy [de]registration combined with
half-broken in-place root blkg updates.  In addition to being buggy
and racy, this meant losing all blkcg configurations across those
events.

Now that blkcg is cleaned up enough, this patch replaces the temporary
implementation with proper per-queue policy activation.  Each blkcg
policy should call the new blkcg_[de]activate_policy() to enable and
disable the policy on a specific queue.  blkcg_activate_policy()
allocates and installs policy data for the policy for all existing
blkgs.  blkcg_deactivate_policy() does the reverse.  If a policy is
not enabled for a given queue, blkg printing / config functions skip
the respective blkg for the queue.

blkcg_activate_policy() also takes care of root blkg creation, and
cfq_init_queue() and blk_throtl_init() are updated accordingly.

This replaces blkcg_bypass_{start|end}() and update_root_blkg_pd()
unnecessary.  Dropped.

v2: cfq_init_queue() was returning uninitialized @ret on root_group
    alloc failure if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.  Fixed.

Tejun Heo b82d4b197c blkcg: make request_queue bypassing on allocation
With the previous change to guarantee bypass visiblity for RCU read
lock regions, entering bypass mode involves non-trivial overhead and
future changes are scheduled to make use of bypass mode during init
path.  Combined it may end up adding noticeable delay during boot.

This patch makes request_queue start its life in bypass mode, which is
ended on queue init completion at the end of
blk_init_allocated_queue(), and updates blk_queue_bypass_start() such
that draining and RCU synchronization are performed only when the
queue actually enters bypass mode.

This avoids unnecessarily switching in and out of bypass mode during
init avoiding the overhead and any nasty surprises which may step from
leaving bypass mode on half-initialized queues.

The boot time overhead was pointed out by Vivek.

Shaohua Li 1b2e19f17e block: make auto block plug flush threshold per-disk based
We do auto block plug flush to reduce latency, the threshold is 16
requests. This works well if the task is accessing one or two drives.
The problem is if the task is accessing a raid 0 device and the raid
disk number is big, say 8 or 16, 16/8 = 2 or 16/16=1, we will have
heavy lock contention.

This patch makes the threshold per-disk based. The latency should be
still ok accessing one or two drives. The setup with application
accessing a lot of drives in the meantime uaually is big machine,
avoiding lock contention is more important, because any contention
will actually increase latency.

Tejun Heo 60c2bc2d5a blkcg: move conf/stat file handling code to policies
blkcg conf/stat handling is convoluted in that details which belong to
specific policy implementations are all out in blkcg core and then
policies hook into core layer to access and manipulate confs and
stats.  This sadly achieves both inflexibility (confs/stats can't be
modified without messing with blkcg core) and complexity (all the
call-ins and call-backs).

The previous patches restructured conf and stat handling code such
that they can be separated out.  This patch relocates the file
handling part.  All conf/stat file handling code which belongs to
BLKIO_POLICY_PROP is moved to cfq-iosched.c and all
BKLIO_POLICY_THROTL code to blk-throtl.c.

The move is verbatim except for blkio_update_group_{weight|bps|iops}()
callbacks which relays conf changes to policies.  The configuration
settings are handled in policies themselves so the relaying isn't
necessary.  Conf setting functions are modified to directly call
per-policy update functions and the relaying mechanism is dropped.

Tejun Heo edcb0722c6 blkcg: introduce blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat
blkcg uses u64_stats_sync to avoid reading wrong u64 statistic values
on 32bit archs and some stat counters have subtypes to distinguish
read/writes and sync/async IOs.  The stat code paths are confusing and
involve a lot of going back and forth between blkcg core and specific
policy implementations, and synchronization and subtype handling are
open coded in blkcg core.

This patch introduces struct blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat which, with
accompanying operations, encapsulate stat updating and accessing with
proper synchronization.

blkg_stat is simple u64 counter with 64bit read-access protection.
blkg_rwstat is the one with rw and [a]sync subcounters and takes @rw
flags to distinguish IO subtypes (%REQ_WRITE and %REQ_SYNC) and
replaces stat_sub_type indexed arrays.

All counters in blkio_group_stats and blkio_group_stats_cpu are
replaced with either blkg_stat or blkg_rwstat along with all users.

This does add one u64_stats_sync per counter and increase stats_sync
operations but they're empty/noops on 64bit archs and blkcg doesn't
have too many counters, especially with DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP off.

While the currently resulting code isn't necessarily simpler at the
moment, this will enable further clean up of blkcg stats code.

- BLKIO_STAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL} renamed to
  BLKG_RWSTAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL}.

- blkg_stat_add() replaces blkio_add_stat() and
  blkio_check_and_dec_stat().  Note that BUG_ON() on underflow in the
  latter function no longer exists.  It's *way* better to have
  underflowed stat counters than oopsing.

- blkio_group_stats->dequeue is now a proper u64 stat counter instead
  of ulong.

- reset_stats() updated to clear each stat counters individually and
  BLKG_STATS_DEBUG_CLEAR_{START|SIZE} are removed.

- Some functions reconstruct rw flags from direction and sync
  booleans.  This will be removed by future patches.

Tao Ma 5bf14c0727 block: Make cfq_target_latency tunable through sysfs.
In cfq, when we calculate a time slice for a process(or a cfqq to
be precise), we have to consider the cfq_target_latency so that all the
sync request have an estimated latency(300ms) and it is controlled by
cfq_target_latency. But in some hadoop test, we have found that if
there are many processes doing sequential read(24 for example), the
throughput is bad because every process can only work for about 25ms
and the cfqq is switched. That leads to a higher disk seek. We can
achive the good throughput by setting low_latency=0, but then some
read's latency is too much for the application.

So this patch makes cfq_target_latency tunable through sysfs so that
we can tune it and find some magic number which is not bad for both
the throughput and the read latency.

Tejun Heo 959d851caa Merge branch 'for-3.5' of ../cgroup into block/for-3.5/core-merged
cgroup/for-3.5 contains the following changes which blk-cgroup needs
to proceed with the on-going cleanup.

* Dynamic addition and removal of cftypes to make config/stat file
  handling modular for policies.

* cgroup removal update to not wait for css references to drain to fix
  blkcg removal hang caused by cfq caching cfqgs.

Pull in cgroup/for-3.5 into block/for-3.5/core.  This causes the
following conflicts in block/blk-cgroup.c.

* 761b3ef50e "cgroup: remove cgroup_subsys argument from callbacks"
  conflicts with blkiocg_pre_destroy() addition and blkiocg_attach()
  removal.  Resolved by removing @subsys from all subsys methods.

* 676f7c8f84 "cgroup: relocate cftype and cgroup_subsys definitions in
  controllers" conflicts with ->pre_destroy() and ->attach() updates
  and removal of modular config.  Resolved by dropping forward
  declarations of the methods and applying updates to the relocated
  blkio_subsys.

* 4baf6e3325 "cgroup: convert all non-memcg controllers to the new
  cftype interface" builds upon the previous item.  Resolved by adding
  ->base_cftypes to the relocated blkio_subsys.

Tejun Heo 4baf6e3325 cgroup: convert all non-memcg controllers to the new cftype interface
Convert debug, freezer, cpuset, cpu_cgroup, cpuacct, net_prio, blkio,
net_cls and device controllers to use the new cftype based interface.
Termination entry is added to cftype arrays and populate callbacks are
replaced with cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes initializations.

This is functionally identical transformation.  There shouldn't be any
visible behavior change.

memcg is rather special and will be converted separately.

blk-cgroup, netprio_cgroup, cls_cgroup and tcp_memcontrol
unnecessarily define cftype array and cgroup_subsys structures at the

This patch relocates those below the definitions of the methods and
removes the forward declarations.  Note that forward declaration of
tcp_files[] is added in tcp_memcontrol.c for tcp_init_cgroup().  This

Tejun Heo 598971bfbd cfq: don't use icq_get_changed()
cfq caches the associated cfqq's for a given cic.  The cache needs to
be flushed if the cic's ioprio or blkcg has changed.  It is currently
done by requiring the changing action to set the respective
ICQ_*_CHANGED bit in the icq and testing it from cfq_set_request(),
which involves iterating through all the affected icqs.

All cfq wants to know is whether ioprio and/or blkcg have changed
since the last flush and can be easily achieved by just remembering
the current ioprio and blkcg ID in cic.

This patch adds cic->{ioprio|blkcg_id}, updates all ioprio users to
use the remembered value instead, and updates cfq_set_request() path
such that, instead of using icq_get_changed(), the current values are
compared against the remembered ones and trigger appropriate flush
action if not.  Condition tests are moved inside both _changed
functions which are now named check_ioprio_changed() and
check_blkcg_changed().

ioprio.h::task_ioprio*() can't be used anymore and replaced with
open-coded IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE case in cfq_async_queue_prio().

Tejun Heo 997a026c80 blkcg: simplify stat reset
blkiocg_reset_stats() implements stat reset for blkio.reset_stats
cgroupfs file.  This feature is very unconventional and something
which shouldn't have been merged.  It's only useful when there's only
one user or tool looking at the stats.  As soon as multiple users
and/or tools are involved, it becomes useless as resetting disrupts
other usages.  There are very good reasons why all other stats expect
readers to read values at the start and end of a period and subtract
to determine delta over the period.

The implementation is rather complex - some fields shouldn't be
cleared and it saves some fields, resets whole and restores for some
reason.  Reset of percpu stats is also racy.  The comment points to
64bit store atomicity for the reason but even without that stores for
zero can simply race with other CPUs doing RMW and get clobbered.

Simplify reset by

* Clear selectively instead of resetting and restoring.

* Grouping debug stat fields to be reset and using memset() over them.

* Not caring about stats_lock.

* Using memset() to reset percpu stats.

Vivek Goyal 1cd9e039fc blkcg: alloc per cpu stats from worker thread in a delayed manner
Current per cpu stat allocation assumes GFP_KERNEL allocation flag. But in
IO path there are times when we want GFP_NOIO semantics. As there is no
way to pass the allocation flags to alloc_percpu(), this patch delays the
allocation of stats using a worker thread.

v2-> tejun suggested following changes. Changed the patch accordingly.
	- move alloc_node location in structure
	- reduce the size of names of some of the fields
	- Reduce the scope of locking of alloc_list_lock
	- Simplified stat_alloc_fn() by allocating stats for all
	  policies in one go and then assigning these to a group.

v3 -> Andrew suggested to put some comments in the code. Also raised
      concerns about trying to allocate infinitely in case of allocation
      failure. I have changed the logic to sleep for 10ms before retrying.
      That should take care of non-preemptible UP kernels.

v4 -> Tejun had more suggestions.
	- drop list_for_each_entry_all()
	- instead of msleep() use queue_delayed_work()
	- Some cleanups realted to more compact coding.

v5-> tejun suggested more cleanups leading to more compact code.

tj: - Relocated pcpu_stats into blkio_stat_alloc_fn().
    - Minor comment update.
    - This also fixes suspicious RCU usage warning caused by invoking
      cgroup_path() from blkg_alloc() without holding RCU read lock.
      Now that blkg_alloc() doesn't require sleepable context, RCU
      read lock from blkg_lookup_create() is maintained throughout
      blkg_alloc().

Tejun Heo 852c788f83 block: implement bio_associate_current()
IO scheduling and cgroup are tied to the issuing task via io_context
and cgroup of %current.  Unfortunately, there are cases where IOs need
to be routed via a different task which makes scheduling and cgroup
limit enforcement applied completely incorrectly.

For example, all bios delayed by blk-throttle end up being issued by a
delayed work item and get assigned the io_context of the worker task
which happens to serve the work item and dumped to the default block
cgroup.  This is double confusing as bios which aren't delayed end up
in the correct cgroup and makes using blk-throttle and cfq propio
together impossible.

Any code which punts IO issuing to another task is affected which is
getting more and more common (e.g. btrfs).  As both io_context and
cgroup are firmly tied to task including userland visible APIs to
manipulate them, it makes a lot of sense to match up tasks to bios.

This patch implements bio_associate_current() which associates the
specified bio with %current.  The bio will record the associated ioc
and blkcg at that point and block layer will use the recorded ones
regardless of which task actually ends up issuing the bio.  bio
release puts the associated ioc and blkcg.

It grabs and remembers ioc and blkcg instead of the task itself
because task may already be dead by the time the bio is issued making
ioc and blkcg inaccessible and those are all block layer cares about.

elevator_set_req_fn() is updated such that the bio elvdata is being
allocated for is available to the elevator.

This doesn't update block cgroup policies yet.  Further patches will
implement the support.

-v2: #ifdef CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP added around bio->bi_ioc dereference in
     rq_ioc() to fix build breakage.

Tejun Heo c875f4d025 blkcg: drop unnecessary RCU locking
Now that blkg additions / removals are always done under both q and
blkcg locks, the only places RCU locking is necessary are
blkg_lookup[_create]() for lookup w/o blkcg lock.  This patch drops
unncessary RCU locking replacing it with plain blkcg locking as
necessary.

* blkiocg_pre_destroy() already perform proper locking and don't need
  RCU.  Dropped.

* blkio_read_blkg_stats() now uses blkcg->lock instead of RCU read
  lock.  This isn't a hot path.

* Now unnecessary synchronize_rcu() from queue exit paths removed.
  This makes q->nr_blkgs unnecessary.  Dropped.

* RCU annotation on blkg->q removed.

-v2: Vivek pointed out that blkg_lookup_create() still needs to be
     called under rcu_read_lock().  Updated.

-v3: After the update, stats_lock locking in blkio_read_blkg_stats()

     irq while blkcg->lock is locked.  Fixed.

Tejun Heo 9f13ef678e blkcg: use double locking instead of RCU for blkg synchronization
blkgs are chained from both blkcgs and request_queues and thus
subjected to two locks - blkcg->lock and q->queue_lock.  As both blkcg
and q can go away anytime, locking during removal is tricky.  It's
currently solved by wrapping removal inside RCU, which makes the
synchronization complex.  There are three locks to worry about - the
outer RCU, q lock and blkcg lock, and it leads to nasty subtle
complications like conditional synchronize_rcu() on queue exit paths.

For all other paths, blkcg lock is naturally nested inside q lock and
the only exception is blkcg removal path, which is a very cold path
and can be implemented as clumsy but conceptually-simple reverse
double lock dancing.

This patch updates blkg removal path such that blkgs are removed while
holding both q and blkcg locks, which is trivial for request queue
exit path - blkg_destroy_all().  The blkcg removal path,
blkiocg_pre_destroy(), implements reverse double lock dancing
essentially identical to ioc_release_fn().

This simplifies blkg locking - no half-dead blkgs to worry about.  Now
unnecessary RCU annotations will be removed by the next patch.

Tejun Heo e8989fae38 blkcg: unify blkg's for blkcg policies
Currently, blkg is per cgroup-queue-policy combination.  This is
unnatural and leads to various convolutions in partially used
duplicate fields in blkg, config / stat access, and general management
of blkgs.

This patch make blkg's per cgroup-queue and let them serve all
policies.  blkgs are now created and destroyed by blkcg core proper.
This will allow further consolidation of common management logic into
blkcg core and API with better defined semantics and layering.

As a transitional step to untangle blkg management, elvswitch and
policy [de]registration, all blkgs except the root blkg are being shot
down during elvswitch and bypass.  This patch adds blkg_root_update()
to update root blkg in place on policy change.  This is hacky and racy
but should be good enough as interim step until we get locking
simplified and switch over to proper in-place update for all blkgs.

-v2: Root blkgs need to be updated on elvswitch too and blkg_alloc()
     comment wasn't updated according to the function change.  Fixed.
     Both pointed out by Vivek.

-v3: v2 updated blkg_destroy_all() to invoke update_root_blkg_pd() for
     all policies.  This freed root pd during elvswitch before the
     last queue finished exiting and led to oops.  Directly invoke
     update_root_blkg_pd() only on BLKIO_POLICY_PROP from
     cfq_exit_queue().  This also is closer to what will be done with
     proper in-place blkg update.  Reported by Vivek.

Tejun Heo 03aa264ac1 blkcg: let blkcg core manage per-queue blkg list and counter
With the previous patch to move blkg list heads and counters to
request_queue and blkg, logic to manage them in both policies are
almost identical and can be moved to blkcg core.

This patch moves blkg link logic into blkg_lookup_create(), implements
common blkg unlink code in blkg_destroy(), and updates
blkg_destory_all() so that it's policy specific and can skip root
group.  The updated blkg_destroy_all() is now used to both clear queue
for bypassing and elv switching, and release all blkgs on q exit.

This patch introduces a race window where policy [de]registration may
race against queue blkg clearing.  This can only be a problem on cfq
unload and shouldn't be a real problem in practice (and we have many
other places where this race already exists).  Future patches will
remove these unlikely races.

data structure and thus allocated and freed by policies.  This leads
to duplicate codes in policies, hinders implementing common part in
blkcg core with strong semantics, and forces duplicate blkg's for the
same cgroup-q association.

This patch introduces struct blkg_policy_data which is a separate data
structure chained from blkg.  Policies specifies the amount of private
data it needs in its blkio_policy_type->pdata_size and blkcg core
takes care of allocating them along with blkg which can be accessed
using blkg_to_pdata().  blkg can be determined from pdata using
pdata_to_blkg().  blkio_alloc_group_fn() method is accordingly updated
to blkio_init_group_fn().

For consistency, tg_of_blkg() and cfqg_of_blkg() are replaced with
blkg_to_tg() and blkg_to_cfqg() respectively, and functions to map in
the reverse direction are added.

Except that policy specific data now lives in a separate data

Tejun Heo 7a4dd281ec blkcg: kill the mind-bending blkg->dev
blkg->dev is dev_t recording the device number of the block device for
the associated request_queue.  It is used to identify the associated
block device when printing out configuration or stats.

This is redundant to begin with.  A blkg is an association between a
cgroup and a request_queue and it of course is possible to reach
request_queue from blkg and synchronization conventions are in place
for safe q dereferencing, so this shouldn't be necessary from the
beginning.  Furthermore, it's initialized by sscanf()ing the device
name of backing_dev_info.  The mind boggles.

Anyways, if blkg is visible under rcu lock, we *know* that the
associated request_queue hasn't gone away yet and its bdi is
registered and alive - blkg can't be created for request_queue which
hasn't been fully initialized and it can't go away before blkg is
removed.

blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev and pass it down to printing functions
and remove blkg->dev.

Tejun Heo e56da7e287 blkcg: don't allow or retain configuration of missing devices
blkcg is very peculiar in that it allows setting and remembering
configurations for non-existent devices by maintaining separate data
structures for configuration.

This behavior is completely out of the usual norms and outright
confusing; furthermore, it uses dev_t number to match the
configuration to devices, which is unpredictable to begin with and
becomes completely unuseable if EXT_DEVT is fully used.

It is wholely unnecessary - we already have fully functional userland
mechanism to program devices being hotplugged which has full access to
device identification, connection topology and filesystem information.

Add a new struct blkio_group_conf which contains all blkcg
configurations to blkio_group and let blkio_group, which can be
created iff the associated device exists and is removed when the
associated device goes away, carry all configurations.

Note that, after this patch, all newly created blkg's will always have
the default configuration (unlimited for throttling and blkcg's weight
for propio).

This patch makes blkio_policy_node meaningless but doesn't remove it.

Tejun Heo cd1604fab4 blkcg: factor out blkio_group creation
Currently both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched implement their own
blkio_group creation code in throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg().  This
patch factors out the common code into blkg_lookup_create(), which
returns ERR_PTR value so that transitional failures due to queue
bypass can be distinguished from other failures.

* New plkio_policy_ops methods blkio_alloc_group_fn() and
  blkio_link_group_fn added.  Both are transitional and will be
  removed once the blkg management code is fully moved into
  blk-cgroup.c.

* blkio_alloc_group_fn() allocates policy-specific blkg which is
  usually a larger data structure with blkg as the first entry and
  intiailizes it.  Note that initialization of blkg proper, including
  percpu stats, is responsibility of blk-cgroup proper.

  Note that default config (weight, bps...) initialization is done
  from this method; otherwise, we end up violating locking order
  between blkcg and q locks via blkcg_get_CONF() functions.

* blkio_link_group_fn() is called under queue_lock and responsible for
  linking the blkg to the queue.  blkcg side is handled by blk-cgroup
  proper.

* The common blkg creation function is named blkg_lookup_create() and
  blkiocg_lookup_group() is renamed to blkg_lookup() for consistency.
  Also, throtl / cfq related functions are similarly [re]named for
  consistency.

This simplifies blkcg policy implementations and enables further
cleanup.

-v2: Vivek noticed that blkg_lookup_create() incorrectly tested
     blk_queue_dead() instead of blk_queue_bypass() leading a user of

Tejun Heo 72e06c2551 blkcg: shoot down blkio_groups on elevator switch
Elevator switch may involve changes to blkcg policies.  Implement
shoot down of blkio_groups.

Combined with the previous bypass updates, the end goal is updating
blkcg core such that it can ensure that blkcg's being affected become
quiescent and don't have any per-blkg data hanging around before
commencing any policy updates.  Until queues are made aware of the
policies that applies to them, as an interim step, all per-policy blkg
data will be shot down.

* blk-throtl doesn't need this change as it can't be disabled for a
  live queue; however, update it anyway as the scheduled blkg
  unification requires this behavior change.  This means that
  blk-throtl configuration will be unnecessarily lost over elevator
  switch.  This oddity will be removed after blkcg learns to associate
  individual policies with request_queues.

* blk-throtl dosen't shoot down root_tg.  This is to ease transition.
  Unified blkg will always have persistent root group and not shooting
  down root_tg for now eases transition to that point by avoiding
  having to update td->root_tg and is safe as blk-throtl can never be
  disabled

-v2: Vivek pointed out that group list is not guaranteed to be empty
     on return from clear function if it raced cgroup removal and
     lost.  Fix it by waiting a bit and retrying.  This kludge will
     soon be removed once locking is updated such that blkg is never
     in limbo state between blkcg and request_queue locks.

     blk-throtl no longer shoots down root_tg to avoid breaking
     td->root_tg.

     Also, Nest queue_lock inside blkio_list_lock not the other way
     around to avoid introduce possible deadlock via blkcg lock.

-v3: blkcg_clear_queue() repositioned and renamed to
     blkg_destroy_all() to increase consistency with later changes.
     cfq_clear_queue() updated to check q->elevator before
     dereferencing it to avoid NULL dereference on not fully
     initialized queues (used by later change).

Tejun Heo 6ecf23afab block: extend queue bypassing to cover blkcg policies
Extend queue bypassing such that dying queue is always bypassing and
blk-throttle is drained on bypass.  With blkcg policies updated to
test blk_queue_bypass() instead of blk_queue_dead(), this ensures that
no bio or request is held by or going through blkcg policies on a
bypassing queue.

This will be used to implement blkg cleanup on elevator switches and
policy changes.

Tejun Heo b2fab5acd2 elevator: make elevator_init_fn() return 0/-errno
elevator_ops->elevator_init_fn() has a weird return value.  It returns
a void * which the caller should assign to q->elevator->elevator_data
and %NULL return denotes init failure.

Update such that it returns integer 0/-errno and sets elevator_data
directly as necessary.

This makes the interface more conventional and eases further cleanup.

Tejun Heo 5a5bafdc39 elevator: clear auxiliary data earlier during elevator switch
Elevator switch tries hard to keep as much as context until new
elevator is ready so that it can revert to the original state if
initializing the new elevator fails for some reason.  Unfortunately,
with more auxiliary contexts to manage, this makes elevator init and
exit paths too complex and fragile.

This patch makes elevator_switch() unregister the current elevator and
flush icq's before start initializing the new one.  As we still keep
the old elevator itself, the only difference is that we lose icq's on
rare occassions of switching failure, which isn't critical at all.

Note that this makes explicit elevator parameter to
elevator_init_queue() and __elv_register_queue() unnecessary as they
always can use the current elevator.

This patch enables block cgroup cleanups.

-v2: blk_add_trace_msg() prints elevator name from @new_e instead of
     @e->type as the local variable no longer exists.  This caused
     build failure on CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IO_TRACE.

Tejun Heo 32e380aedc blkcg: make CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP bool
Block cgroup core can be built as module; however, it isn't too useful
as blk-throttle can only be built-in and cfq-iosched is usually the
default built-in scheduler.  Scheduled blkcg cleanup requires calling
into blkcg from block core.  To simplify that, disallow building blkcg
as module by making CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP bool.

If building blkcg core as module really matters, which I doubt, we can
revisit it after blkcg API cleanup.

-v2: Vivek pointed out that IOSCHED_CFQ was incorrectly updated to
     depend on BLK_CGROUP.  Fixed.

Tejun Heo b855b04a0b block: blk-throttle should be drained regardless of q->elevator
Currently, blk_cleanup_queue() doesn't call elv_drain_elevator() if
q->elevator doesn't exist; however, bio based drivers don't have
elevator initialized but can still use blk-throttle.  This patch moves
q->elevator test inside blk_drain_queue() such that only
elv_drain_elevator() is skipped if !q->elevator.

     sure we don't call into __blk_run_queue() in such cases.

Alan Stern 62d3c5439c Block: use a freezable workqueue for disk-event polling
This patch (as1519) fixes a bug in the block layer's disk-events
polling.  The polling is done by a work routine queued on the
system_nrt_wq workqueue.  Since that workqueue isn't freezable, the
polling continues even in the middle of a system sleep transition.

Obviously, polling a suspended drive for media changes and such isn't
a good thing to do; in the case of USB mass-storage devices it can
lead to real problems requiring device resets and even re-enumeration.

The patch fixes things by creating a new system-wide, non-reentrant,
freezable workqueue and using it for disk-events polling.

Stanislaw Gruszka 9f53d2fe81 block: fix __blkdev_get and add_disk race condition
The following situation might occur:

__blkdev_get:			add_disk:

				register_disk()
get_gendisk()

disk_block_events()
	disk->ev == NULL

				disk_add_events()

__disk_unblock_events()
	disk->ev != NULL
	--ev->block

Then we unblock events, when they are suppose to be blocked. This can
trigger events related block/genhd.c warnings, but also can crash in
sd_check_events() or other places.

I'm able to reproduce crashes with the following scripts (with
connected usb dongle as sdb disk).

<snip>
DEV=/dev/sdb
ENABLE=/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-2/bConfigurationValue

function stop_me()
{
	for i in `jobs -p` ; do kill $i 2> /dev/null ; done
	exit
}

trap stop_me SIGHUP SIGINT SIGTERM

for ((i = 0; i < 10; i++)) ; do
	while true; do fdisk -l $DEV  2>&1 > /dev/null ; done &
done

while true ; do
echo 1 > $ENABLE
sleep 1
echo 0 > $ENABLE
done
</snip>

I use the script to verify patch fixing oops in sd_revalidate_disk
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=132935572512352&w=2
Without Jun'ichi Nomura patch titled "Fix NULL pointer dereference in
sd_revalidate_disk" or this one, script easily crash kernel within
a few seconds. With both patches applied I do not observe crash.
Unfortunately after some time (dozen of minutes), script will hung in:

Anyway I think this patch is some step forward.

As drawback, I do not teardown on sysfs file create error, because I do
not know how to nullify disk->ev (since it can be used). However add_disk
error handling practically does not exist too, and things will work
without this sysfs file, except events will not be exported to user
space.

Jun'ichi Nomura fe316bf2d5 block: Fix NULL pointer dereference in sd_revalidate_disk
Since 2.6.39 (1196f8b), when a driver returns -ENOMEDIUM for open(),
__blkdev_get() calls rescan_partitions() to remove
in-kernel partition structures and raise KOBJ_CHANGE uevent.

However it ends up calling driver's revalidate_disk without open
and could cause oops.

In the case of SCSI:

  process A                  process B
  ----------------------------------------------
  sys_open
    __blkdev_get
      sd_open
        returns -ENOMEDIUM
                             scsi_remove_device
                               <scsi_device torn down>
      rescan_partitions
        sd_revalidate_disk
          <oops>
Oopses are reported here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=132388619710052

This patch separates the partition invalidation from rescan_partitions()
and use it for -ENOMEDIUM case.
