block: Revert v5.0 blk_mq_request_issue_directly() changes

2019-04-17T06:39:50+00:00

commit fd9c40f64c514bdc585a21e2e33fa5f83ca8811b upstream. blk_mq_try_issue_directly() can return BLK_STS*_RESOURCE for requests that have been queued. If that happens when blk_mq_try_issue_directly() is called by the dm-mpath driver then dm-mpath will try to resubmit a request that is already queued and a kernel crash follows. Since it is nontrivial to fix blk_mq_request_issue_directly(), revert the blk_mq_request_issue_directly() changes that went into kernel v5.0. This patch reverts the following commits: * d6a51a97c0b2 ("blk-mq: replace and kill blk_mq_request_issue_directly") # v5.0. * 5b7a6f128aad ("blk-mq: issue directly with bypass 'false' in blk_mq_sched_insert_requests") # v5.0. * 7f556a44e61d ("blk-mq: refactor the code of issue request directly") # v5.0.

block: pass no-op callback to INIT_WORK().

2019-01-30T15:53:20+00:00

syzbot is hitting flush_work() warning caused by commit 4d43d395fed12463 ("workqueue: Try to catch flush_work() without INIT_WORK().") [1]. Although that commit did not expect INIT_WORK(NULL) case, calling flush_work() without setting a valid callback should be avoided anyway. Fix this problem by setting a no-op callback instead of NULL.

Revert "block: cover another queue enter recursion via BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED"

2019-01-27T13:35:28+00:00

We can't touch a bio after ->make_request_fn(), for all we know it could already have been completed by the time this function returns. This reverts commit 698cef173983b086977e633e46476e0f925ca01e. Reported-by: syzbot+4df6ca820108fd248943@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: cover another queue enter recursion via BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED

2019-01-22T17:24:08+00:00

Except for blk_queue_split(), bio_split() is used for splitting bio too, then the remained bio is often resubmit to queue via generic_make_request(). So the same queue enter recursion exits in this case too. Unfortunatley commit cd4a4ae4683dc2 doesn't help this case. This patch covers the above case by setting BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED before calling q->make_request_fn. In theory the per-bio flag is used to simulate one stack variable, it is just fine to clear it after q->make_request_fn is returned. Especially the same bio can't be submitted from another context.

block: fix kerneldoc comment for blk_attempt_plug_merge()

2019-01-09T22:29:08+00:00

Commit 5f0ed774ed29 ("block: sum requests in the plug structure") removed the request_count parameter from block_attempt_plug_merge(), but did not remove the associated kerneldoc comment, introducing this warning to the docs build: ./block/blk-core.c:685: warning: Excess function parameter 'request_count' description in 'blk_attempt_plug_merge' Remove the obsolete description and make things a little quieter.

block: clarify documentation for blk_{start|finish}_plug

2019-01-09T03:49:46+00:00

There was some confusion about what these functions did. Make it clear that this is a hint for upper layers to pass to the block layer, and that it does not guarantee that I/O will not be submitted between a start and finish plug. Reported-by: "Darrick J.

block: clear REQ_HIPRI if polling is not supported

2018-12-16T16:01:38+00:00

This prevents a HIPRI bio from being submitted through a stacking driver that does not support polling and thus won't poll for I/O completion. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: replace and kill blk_mq_request_issue_directly

block: delete part_round_stats and switch to less precise counting

2018-12-10T15:30:37+00:00

We want to convert to per-cpu in_flight counters. The function part_round_stats needs the in_flight counter every jiffy, it would be too costly to sum all the percpu variables every jiffy, so it must be deleted. part_round_stats is used to calculate two counters - time_in_queue and io_ticks. time_in_queue can be calculated without part_round_stats, by adding the duration of the I/O when the I/O ends (the value is almost as exact as the previously calculated value, except that time for in-progress I/Os is not counted). io_ticks can be approximated by increasing the value when I/O is started or ended and the jiffies value has changed. If the I/Os take less than a jiffy, the value is as exact as the previously calculated value. If the I/Os take more than a jiffy, io_ticks can drift behind the previously calculated value.

block: stop passing 'cpu' to all percpu stats methods

2018-12-10T15:30:37+00:00

All of part_stat_* and related methods are used with preempt disabled, so there is no need to pass cpu around to allow of them. Just call smp_processor_id() as needed. Suggested-by: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
