Merge branch 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2016-12-13T18:19:16+00:00

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe: "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially for cycles that end up being as busy as this one. The major parts of this pull request is: - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small private implementation instead of using the pig that is fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph. - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the writeback queue throttling code. - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me. - Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me. - Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes and Shaun. - Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef. - Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From Christoph. - A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue stopping and starting in blk-mq. - Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya. - Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias. - Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart. - A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name here" * 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (182 commits) blk-stat: fix a few cases of missing batch flushing blk-flush: run the queue when inserting blk-mq flush elevator: make the rqhash helpers exported blk-mq: abstract out blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() helper blk-mq: add blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queue() block: improve handling of the magic discard payload blk-wbt: don't throttle discard or write zeroes nbd: use dev_err_ratelimited in io path nbd: reset the setup task for NBD_CLEAR_SOCK nvme-fabrics: Add FC LLDD loopback driver to test FC-NVME nvme-fabrics: Add target support for FC transport nvme-fabrics: Add host support for FC transport nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport LLDD api definitions nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport FC-NVME definitions nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport error codes to nvme.h Add type 0x28 NVME type code to scsi fc headers nvme-fabrics: patch target code in prep for FC transport support nvme-fabrics: set sqe.command_id in core not transports parser: add u64 number parser nvme-rdma: align to generic ib_event logging helper ...

blk-flush: run the queue when inserting blk-mq flush

2016-12-09T16:03:02+00:00

Currently we pass in to run the queue async, but don't flag the queue to be run. We don't need to run it async here, but we should run it. So fixup the parameters. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke

block: set REQ_SYNC if we clear REQ_FUA|REQ_PREFLUSH

2016-11-09T02:39:28+00:00

If we insert a flush request, we clear REQ_PREFLUSH and/or REQ_FUA, depending on flush settings. Since op_is_sync() factors those flags in for deciding whether this request is sync or not, we should set REQ_SYNC to avoid screwing up this accounting. This should be less fragile.

blk-mq: Add a kick_requeue_list argument to blk_mq_requeue_request()

2016-11-02T18:50:19+00:00

Most blk_mq_requeue_request() and blk_mq_add_to_requeue_list() calls are followed by kicking the requeue list. Hence add an argument to these two functions that allows to kick the requeue list. This was proposed by Christoph Hellwig.

block,fs: use REQ_* flags directly

2016-11-01T15:43:26+00:00

Remove the WRITE_* and READ_SYNC wrappers, and just use the flags directly. Where applicable this also drops usage of the bio_set_op_attrs wrapper. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: better op and flags encoding

2016-10-28T14:48:16+00:00

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to stop having to shift around the operation values. In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do that later) and thus clean up a lot of code. Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: split out request-only flags into a new namespace

2016-10-28T14:45:17+00:00

A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of use to the block layer and a few drivers that dig into struct request internals. This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests. It also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for struct request.

block: flush: fix IO hang in case of flood fua req

2016-10-26T13:49:27+00:00

This patch fixes one issue reported by Kent, which can be triggered in bcachefs over sata disk. Actually it is a generic issue in block flush vs. blk-tag. Cc: Christoph Hellwig Reported-by: Kent Overstreet Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: remove ->map_queue

2016-09-15T14:42:03+00:00

All drivers use the default, so provide an inline version of it. If we ever need other queue mapping we can add an optional method back, although supporting will also require major changes to the queue setup code. This provides better code generation, and better debugability as well. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Keith Busch Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block, drivers, fs: rename REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

To avoid confusion between REQ_OP_FLUSH, which is handled by request_fn drivers, and upper layers requesting the block layer perform a flush sequence along with possibly a WRITE, this patch renames REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH.
