These statistics _might_ be useful to userspace, but it's better not to
commit to an ABI for these yet. Also, the dispatched file in sysfs

Omar Sandoval d96b37c0af blk-mq: move tags and sched_tags info from sysfs to debugfs
These are very tied to the blk-mq tag implementation, so exposing them
to sysfs isn't a great idea. Move the debugging information to debugfs
and add basic entries for the number of tags and the number of reserved
tags to sysfs.

Jens Axboe bd166ef183 blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO schedulers
This adds a set of hooks that intercepts the blk-mq path of
allocating/inserting/issuing/completing requests, allowing
us to develop a scheduler within that framework.

We reuse the existing elevator scheduler API on the registration
side, but augment that with the scheduler flagging support for
the blk-mq interfce, and with a separate set of ops hooks for MQ
devices.

We split driver and scheduler tags, so we can run the scheduling
independently of device queue depth.

Jens Axboe cf43e6be86 block: add scalable completion tracking of requests
For legacy block, we simply track them in the request queue. For
blk-mq, we track them on a per-sw queue basis, which we can then
sum up through the hardware queues and finally to a per device
state.

The stats are tracked in, roughly, 0.1s interval windows.

Add sysfs files to display the stats.

The feature is off by default, to avoid any extra overhead. In-kernel
users of it can turn it on by setting QUEUE_FLAG_STATS in the queue
flags. We currently don't turn it on if someone just reads any of
the stats files, that is something we could add as well.

Thomas Gleixner 897bb0c7f1 blk-mq: Use proper cpumask iterator
queue_for_each_ctx() iterates over per_cpu variables under the assumption that
the possible cpu mask cannot have holes. That's wrong as all cpumasks can have
holes. In case there are holes the iteration ends up accessing uninitialized
memory and crashing as a result.

Replace the macro by a proper for_each_possible_cpu() loop and drop the unused
macro blk_ctx_sum() which references queue_for_each_ctx().

Keith Busch 868f2f0b72 blk-mq: dynamic h/w context count
The hardware's provided queue count may change at runtime with resource
provisioning. This patch allows a block driver to alter the number of
h/w queues available when its resource count changes.

The main part is a new blk-mq API to request a new number of h/w queues
for a given live tag set. The new API freezes all queues using that set,
then adjusts the allocated count prior to remapping these to CPUs.

The bulk of the rest just shifts where h/w contexts and all their
artifacts are allocated and freed.

The number of max h/w contexts is capped to the number of possible cpus
since there is no use for more than that. As such, all pre-allocated
memory for pointers need to account for the max possible rather than
the initial number of queues.

A side effect of this is that the blk-mq will proceed successfully as
long as it can allocate at least one h/w context. Previously it would
fail request queue initialization if less than the requested number
was allocated.

Jens Axboe 05229beedd block: add block polling support
Add basic support for polling for specific IO to complete. This uses
the cookie that blk-mq passes back, which enables the block layer
to pass this cookie to the driver to spin for a specific request.

This will be combined with request latency tracking, so we can make
qualified decisions about when to poll and when not to. For now, for
benchmark purposes, we add a sysfs file that controls whether polling
is enabled or not.

Dan Williams 3ef28e83ab block: generic request_queue reference counting
Allow pmem, and other synchronous/bio-based block drivers, to fallback
on a per-cpu reference count managed by the core for tracking queue
live/dead state.

The existing per-cpu reference count for the blk_mq case is promoted to
be used in all block i/o scenarios.  This involves initializing it by
default, waiting for it to drop to zero at exit, and holding a live
reference over the invocation of q->make_request_fn() in
generic_make_request().  The blk_mq code continues to take its own
reference per blk_mq request and retains the ability to freeze the
queue, but the check that the queue is frozen is moved to
generic_make_request().

This fixes crash signatures like the following:

Akinobu Mita 60de074ba1 blk-mq: fix deadlock when reading cpu_list
CPU hotplug handling for blk-mq (blk_mq_queue_reinit) acquires
all_q_mutex in blk_mq_queue_reinit_notify() and then removes sysfs
entries by blk_mq_sysfs_unregister().  Removing sysfs entry needs to
be blocked until the active reference of the kernfs_node to be zero.

On the other hand, reading blk_mq_hw_sysfs_cpu sysfs entry (e.g.
/sys/block/nullb0/mq/0/cpu_list) acquires all_q_mutex in
blk_mq_hw_sysfs_cpus_show().

If these happen at the same time, a deadlock can happen.  Because one
can wait for the active reference to be zero with holding all_q_mutex,
and the other tries to acquire all_q_mutex with holding the active
reference.

The reason that all_q_mutex is acquired in blk_mq_hw_sysfs_cpus_show()
is to avoid reading an imcomplete hctx->cpumask.  Since reading sysfs
entry for blk-mq needs to acquire q->sysfs_lock, we can avoid deadlock
and reading an imcomplete hctx->cpumask by protecting q->sysfs_lock
while hctx->cpumask is being updated.

Akinobu Mita 4593fdbe7a blk-mq: fix sysfs registration/unregistration race
There is a race between cpu hotplug handling and adding/deleting
gendisk for blk-mq, where both are trying to register and unregister
the same sysfs entries.

null_add_dev
    --> blk_mq_init_queue
        --> blk_mq_init_allocated_queue
            --> add to 'all_q_list' (*)
    --> add_disk
        --> blk_register_queue
            --> blk_mq_register_disk (++)

null_del_dev
    --> del_gendisk
        --> blk_unregister_queue
            --> blk_mq_unregister_disk (--)
    --> blk_cleanup_queue
        --> blk_mq_free_queue
            --> del from 'all_q_list' (*)

blk_mq_queue_reinit
    --> blk_mq_sysfs_unregister (-)
    --> blk_mq_sysfs_register (+)

While the request queue is added to 'all_q_list' (*),
blk_mq_queue_reinit() can be called for the queue anytime by CPU
hotplug callback.  But blk_mq_sysfs_unregister (-) and
blk_mq_sysfs_register (+) in blk_mq_queue_reinit must not be called
before blk_mq_register_disk (++) and after blk_mq_unregister_disk (--)
is finished.  Because '/sys/block/*/mq/' is not exists.

There has already been BLK_MQ_F_SYSFS_UP flag in hctx->flags which can
be used to track these sysfs stuff, but it is only fixing this issue
partially.

In order to fix it completely, we just need per-queue flag instead of
per-hctx flag with appropriate locking.  So this introduces
q->mq_sysfs_init_done which is properly protected with all_q_mutex.

Also, we need to ensure that blk_mq_map_swqueue() is called with
all_q_mutex is held.  Since hctx->nr_ctx is reset temporarily and
updated in blk_mq_map_swqueue(), so we should avoid
blk_mq_register_hctx() seeing the temporary hctx->nr_ctx value
in CPU hotplug handling or adding/deleting gendisk .

One typical example is scsi-mq, the queue depth(.can_queue) of

Mike Snitzer b62c21b71f blk-mq: add blk_mq_init_allocated_queue and export blk_mq_register_disk
Add a variant of blk_mq_init_queue that allows a previously allocated
queue to be initialized.  blk_mq_init_allocated_queue models
blk_init_allocated_queue -- which was also created for DM's use.

DM's approach to device creation requires a placeholder request_queue be
allocated for use with alloc_dev() but the decision about what type of
request_queue will be ultimately created is deferred until all component
devices referenced in the DM table are processed to determine the table
type (request-based, blk-mq request-based, or bio-based).

Also, because of DM's late finalization of the request_queue type
the call to blk_mq_register_disk() doesn't happen during alloc_dev().
Must export blk_mq_register_disk() so that DM can backfill the 'mq' dir
once the blk-mq queue is fully allocated.

This is indeed because of an uninitialized kobject for blk_mq_ctx.
The blk_mq_ctx kobjects are initialized in blk_mq_sysfs_init(), but it
goes loop over hctx_for_each_ctx(), i.e. it initializes only for
online CPUs.  Thus, when a CPU is hotplugged, the ctx for the newly
onlined CPU is registered without initialization.

This patch fixes the issue by initializing the all ctx kobjects
belonging to each queue.

of in-flight commands and used to synchronously drain the queue on
freeze.  percpu_ref shutdown takes measureable wallclock time as it
involves a sched RCU grace period.  This means that draining a blk-mq
takes measureable wallclock time.  One would think that this shouldn't
matter as queue shutdown should be a rare event which takes place
asynchronously w.r.t. userland.

Unfortunately, SCSI probing involves synchronously setting up and then
tearing down a lot of request_queues back-to-back for non-existent
LUNs.  This means that SCSI probing may take above ten seconds when
scsi-mq is used.

This is also the reason why request_queues start in bypass mode which
is ended on blk_register_queue() as shutting down a fully functional
queue also involves a RCU grace period and the queues for non-existent
SCSI devices never reach registration.

blk-mq basically needs to do the same thing - start the mq in a
degraded mode which is faster to shut down and then make it fully
functional only after the queue reaches registration.  percpu_ref
recently grew facilities to force atomic operation until explicitly
switched to percpu mode, which can be used for this purpose.  This
patch makes blk-mq initialize q->mq_usage_counter in atomic mode and
switch it to percpu mode only once blk_register_queue() is reached.

Note that this issue was previously worked around by 0a30288da1
("blk-mq, percpu_ref: implement a kludge for SCSI blk-mq stall during
probe") for v3.17.  The temp fix was reverted in preparation of adding
persistent atomic mode to percpu_ref by 9eca80461a ("Revert "blk-mq,
percpu_ref: implement a kludge for SCSI blk-mq stall during probe"").
This patch and the prerequisite percpu_ref changes will be merged
during v3.18 devel cycle.

Jens Axboe 67aec14ce8 blk-mq: make the sysfs mq/ layout reflect current mappings
Currently blk-mq registers all the hardware queues in sysfs,
regardless of whether it uses them (e.g. they have CPU mappings)
or not. The unused hardware queues lack the cpux/ directories,
and the other sysfs entries (like active, pending, etc) are all
zeroes.

Change this so that sysfs correctly reflects the current mappings
of the hardware queues.

Jens Axboe 0d2602ca30 blk-mq: improve support for shared tags maps
This adds support for active queue tracking, meaning that the
blk-mq tagging maintains a count of active users of a tag set.
This allows us to maintain a notion of fairness between users,
so that we can distribute the tag depth evenly without starving
some users while allowing others to try unfair deep queues.

If sharing of a tag set is detected, each hardware queue will
track the depth of its own queue. And if this exceeds the total
depth divided by the number of active queues, the user is actively
throttled down.

The active queue count is done lazily to avoid bouncing that data
between submitter and completer. Each hardware queue gets marked
active when it allocates its first tag, and gets marked inactive
when 1) the last tag is cleared, and 2) the queue timeout grace
period has passed.

Christoph Hellwig 3853520163 blk-mq: respect rq_affinity
The blk-mq code is using it's own version of the I/O completion affinity
tunables, which causes a few issues:

 - the rq_affinity sysfs file doesn't work for blk-mq devices, even if it
   still is present, thus breaking existing tuning setups.
 - the rq_affinity = 1 mode, which is the defauly for legacy request based
   drivers isn't implemented at all.
 - blk-mq drivers don't implement any completion affinity with the default
   flag settings.

This patches removes the blk-mq ipi_redirect flag and sysfs file, as well
as the internal BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_IPI flag and replaces it with code that
respects the queue-wide rq_affinity flags and also implements the
rq_affinity = 1 mode.

This means I/O completion affinity can now only be tuned block-queue wide
instead of per context, which seems more sensible to me anyway.

Jens Axboe 320ae51fee blk-mq: new multi-queue block IO queueing mechanism
Linux currently has two models for block devices:

- The classic request_fn based approach, where drivers use struct
  request units for IO. The block layer provides various helper
  functionalities to let drivers share code, things like tag
  management, timeout handling, queueing, etc.

- The "stacked" approach, where a driver squeezes in between the
  block layer and IO submitter. Since this bypasses the IO stack,
  driver generally have to manage everything themselves.

With drivers being written for new high IOPS devices, the classic
request_fn based driver doesn't work well enough. The design dates
back to when both SMP and high IOPS was rare. It has problems with
scaling to bigger machines, and runs into scaling issues even on
smaller machines when you have IOPS in the hundreds of thousands
per device.

The stacked approach is then most often selected as the model
for the driver. But this means that everybody has to re-invent
everything, and along with that we get all the problems again
that the shared approach solved.

This commit introduces blk-mq, block multi queue support. The
design is centered around per-cpu queues for queueing IO, which
then funnel down into x number of hardware submission queues.
We might have a 1:1 mapping between the two, or it might be
an N:M mapping. That all depends on what the hardware supports.

blk-mq provides various helper functions, which include:

- Scalable support for request tagging. Most devices need to
  be able to uniquely identify a request both in the driver and
  to the hardware. The tagging uses per-cpu caches for freed
  tags, to enable cache hot reuse.

- Timeout handling without tracking request on a per-device
  basis. Basically the driver should be able to get a notification,
  if a request happens to fail.

- Optional support for non 1:1 mappings between issue and
  submission queues. blk-mq can redirect IO completions to the
  desired location.

- Support for per-request payloads. Drivers almost always need
  to associate a request structure with some driver private
  command structure. Drivers can tell blk-mq this at init time,
  and then any request handed to the driver will have the
  required size of memory associated with it.

- Support for merging of IO, and plugging. The stacked model
  gets neither of these. Even for high IOPS devices, merging
  sequential IO reduces per-command overhead and thus
  increases bandwidth.

For now, this is provided as a potential 3rd queueing model, with
the hope being that, as it matures, it can replace both the classic
and stacked model. That would get us back to having just 1 real
model for block devices, leaving the stacked approach to dm/md
devices (as it was originally intended).
