2009-04-28block: move rq->start_time initialization to blk_rq_init()Tejun Heo
rq->start_time was initialized in init_request_from_bio() so special requests didn't have start_time set. This has been okay as start_time has been used only for fs requests; however, there is no indication of this actually is the case or not. Set rq->start_time in blk_rq_init() and guarantee that all initialized rq's have its start_time set. This improves consistency at virtually no cost and future changes will make use of the timestamp for !bio requests. [ Impact: rq->start_time is valid for all requests ] Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-04-28block: clean up request completion APITejun Heo
Request completion has gone through several changes and became a bit messy over the time. Clean it up. 1. end_that_request_data() is a thin wrapper around end_that_request_data_first() which checks whether bio is NULL before doing anything and handles bidi completion. blk_update_request() is a thin wrapper around end_that_request_data() which clears nr_sectors on the last iteration but doesn't use the bidi completion. Clean it up by moving the initial bio NULL check and nr_sectors clearing on the last iteration into end_that_request_data() and renaming it to blk_update_request(), which makes blk_end_io() the only user of end_that_request_data(). Collapse end_that_request_data() into blk_end_io(). 2. There are four visible completion variants - blk_end_request(), __blk_end_request(), blk_end_bidi_request() and end_request(). blk_end_request() and blk_end_bidi_request() uses blk_end_request() as the backend but __blk_end_request() and end_request() use separate implementation in __blk_end_request() due to different locking rules. blk_end_bidi_request() is identical to blk_end_io(). Collapse blk_end_io() into blk_end_bidi_request(), separate out request update into internal helper blk_update_bidi_request() and add __blk_end_bidi_request(). Redefine [__]blk_end_request() as thin inline wrappers around [__]blk_end_bidi_request(). 3. As the whole request issue/completion usages are about to be modified and audited, it's a good chance to convert completion functions return bool which better indicates the intended meaning of return values. 4. The function name end_that_request_last() is from the days when it was a public interface and slighly confusing. Give it a proper internal name - blk_finish_request(). 5. Add description explaning that blk_end_bidi_request() can be safely used for uni requests as suggested by Boaz Harrosh. The only visible behavior change is from #1. nr_sectors counts are cleared after the final iteration no matter which function is used to complete the request. I couldn't find any place where the code assumes those nr_sectors counters contain the values for the last segment and this change is good as it makes the API much more consistent as the end result is now same whether a request is completed using [__]blk_end_request() alone or in combination with blk_update_request(). API further cleaned up per Christoph's suggestion.

2009-04-28block: reorganize request fetching functionsTejun Heo
Impact: code reorganization elv_next_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are public block layer interface than actual elevator implementation.

2009-04-28block: merge blk_invoke_request_fn() into __blk_run_queue()Tejun Heo
__blk_run_queue wraps blk_invoke_request_fn() such that it additionally removes plug and bails out early if the queue is empty. Both extra operations have their own pending mechanisms and don't cause any harm correctness-wise when they are done superflously. The only user of blk_invoke_request_fn() being blk_start_queue(), there isn't much reason to keep both functions around.

2009-04-28block: enable by default support for large devices and files on 32-bit archsBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Enable by default support for large devices and files (CONFIG_LBD): - With 1TB disks being a commodity hardware it is quite easy to hit 2TB limitation while building RAIDs etc. and many distros have been using CONFIG_LBD=y by default already (at least Fedora 10 and openSUSE 11.1). - This should also prevent a subtle ext4 filesystem compatibility issue: mke2fs.ext4 defaults to creating filesystems with huge_files feature enabled and such filesystems cannot be later mounted read-write on machines with CONFIG_LBD=n (it should be quite easy to hit this issue when trying to use filesystem created using distro kernel on system running the self-build kernel, think about USB disk enclosures & co.).

2009-04-28block: clear req->errors on bio completion only for fs requestsTejun Heo
Impact: subtle behavior change For fs requests, rq is only carrier of bios and rq error status as a whole doesn't mean much. This is the reason why rq->errors is being cleared on each partial completion of a request as on each partial completion the error status is transferred to the respective bios. For pc requests, rq->errors is used to carry error status to the issuer and thus __end_that_request_first() doesn't clear it on such cases. The condition was fine till now as only fs and pc requests have used bio and thus the bio completion path. However, future changes will unify data accesses to bio and all non fs users care about rq error status. Clear rq->errors on bio completion only for fs requests. In general, the implicit clearing is a bit too subtle especially as the meaning of rq->errors is completely dependent on low level drivers. Unifying / cleaning up rq->errors usage and letting llds manage it would be better. TODO comment added. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2009-04-24cfq-iosched: cache prio_tree root in cfqq->p_rootJens Axboe
Currently we look it up from ->ioprio, but ->ioprio can change if either the process gets its IO priority changed explicitly, or if cfq decides to temporarily boost it. So if we are unlucky, we can end up attempting to remove a node from a different rbtree root than where it was added. Fix this by using ->org_ioprio as the prio_tree index, since that will only change for explicit IO priority settings (not for a boost). Additionally cache the rbtree root inside the cfqq, then we don't have to add code to reinsert the cfqq in the prio_tree if IO priority changes. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-04-24cfq-iosched: fix bug with aliased request and cooperation detectionJens Axboe
cfq_prio_tree_lookup() should return the direct match, yet it always returns zero. Fix that. cfq_prio_tree_add() assumes that we don't get a direct match, while it is very possible that we do. Using O_DIRECT, you can have different cfqq with matching requests, since you don't have the page cache to serialize things for you.

2009-04-24block: fix intermittent dm timeout based oopsHannes Reinecke
Very rarely under stress testing of dm, oopses are occuring as something tampers with an old stack frame. This has been traced back to blk_abort_queue() leaving a timeout_list pointing to the stack. The reason is that sometimes blk_abort_request() won't delete the timer (if the request is marked as complete but before the timer has been removed, a small race window).

2009-04-22block: fix queue bounce limit settingTejun Heo
Impact: don't set GFP_DMA in q->bounce_gfp unnecessarily All DMA address limits are expressed in terms of the last addressable unit (byte or page) instead of one plus that. However, when determining bounce_gfp for 64bit machines in blk_queue_bounce_limit(), it compares the specified limit against 0x100000000UL to determine whether it's below 4G ending up falsely setting GFP_DMA in q->bounce_gfp. As DMA zone is very small on x86_64, this makes larger SG_IO transfers very eager to trigger OOM killer. Fix it.

Impact: fix SG_IO behavior such that it matches the documentation SG_IO howto says that if ->dxfer_len and sum of iovec disagress, the shorter one wins. However, the current implementation returns -EINVAL for such cases. Trim iovc if it's longer than ->dxfer_len. This patch uses iov_*() helpers which take struct iovec * by casting struct sg_iovec * to it. sg_iovec is always identical to iovec and this will be further cleaned up with later patches.

2009-04-15cfq-iosched: add close cooperator codeJens Axboe
If we have processes that are working in close proximity to each other on disk, we don't want to idle wait. Instead allow the close process to issue a request, getting better aggregate bandwidth. The anticipatory scheduler has similar checks, noop and deadline do not need it since they don't care about process <-> io mappings. The code for CFQ is a little more involved though, since we split request queues into per-process contexts. This fixes a performance problem with eg dump(8), since it uses several processes in some silly attempt to speed IO up. Even if dump(8) isn't really a valid case (it should be fixed by using CLONE_IO), there are other cases where we see close processes and where idling ends up hurting performance.

2009-04-15cfq-iosched: don't delay queue kick for a merged requestJens Axboe
"Zhang, Yanmin" <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> reports that commit b029195dda0129b427c6e579a3bb3ae752da3a93 introduced a regression of about 50% with sequential threaded read workloads. The test case is: tiotest -k0 -k1 -k3 -f 80 -t 32 which starts 32 threads each reading a 80MB file. Twiddle the kick queue logic so that we do start IO immediately, if it appears to be a fully merged request. We can't really detect that, so just check if the request is bigger than a page or not. The assumption is that since single bio issues will first queue a single request with just one page attached and then later do merges on that, if we already have more than a page worth of data in the request, then the request is most likely good to go. Verified that this doesn't cause a regression with the test case that commit b029195dda0129b427c6e579a3bb3ae752da3a93 was fixing. It does not, we still see maximum sized requests for the queue-then-merge cases. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2009-04-07cfq-iosched: don't let idling interfere with pluggingJens Axboe
When CFQ is waiting for a new request from a process, currently it'll immediately restart queuing when it sees such a request. This doesn't work very well with streamed IO, since we then end up splitting IO that would otherwise have been merged nicely. For a simple dd test, this causes 10x as many requests to be issued as we should have. Normally this goes unnoticed due to the low overhead of requests at the device side, but some hardware is very sensitive to request sizes and there it can cause big slow downs.

2009-04-07cfq-iosched: change dispatch logic to deal with single requests at the timeJens Axboe
The IO scheduler core calls into the IO scheduler dispatch_request hook to move requests from the IO scheduler and into the driver dispatch list. It only does so when the dispatch list is empty. CFQ moves several requests to the dispatch list, which can cause higher latencies if we suddenly have to switch to some important sync IO. Change the logic to move one request at the time instead. This should almost be functionally equivalent to what we did before, except that we now honor 'quantum' as the maximum queue depth at the device side from any single cfqq. If there's just a single active cfqq, we allow up to 4 times the normal quantum. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

By default, CFQ will anticipate more IO from a given io context if the previously completed IO was sync. This used to be fine, since the only sync IO was reads and O_DIRECT writes. But with more "normal" sync writes being used now, we don't want to anticipate for those. Add a bio/request flag that informs the IO scheduler that this is a sync request that we should not idle for.
