blk-mq: set default timeout as 30 seconds

2015-07-16T14:39:11+00:00

It is reasonable to set default timeout of request as 30 seconds instead of 30000 ticks, which may be 300 seconds if HZ is 100, for example, some arm64 based systems may choose 100 HZ.

Merge branch 'for-4.2/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2015-06-25T21:29:53+00:00

Pull core block IO update from Jens Axboe: "Nothing really major in here, mostly a collection of smaller optimizations and cleanups, mixed with various fixes. In more detail, this contains: - Addition of policy specific data to blkcg for block cgroups. From Arianna Avanzini. - Various cleanups around command types from Christoph. - Cleanup of the suspend block I/O path from Christoph. - Plugging updates from Shaohua and Jeff Moyer, for blk-mq. - Eliminating atomic inc/dec of both remaining IO count and reference count in a bio. From me. - Fixes for SG gap and chunk size support for data-less (discards) IO, so we can merge these better. From me. - Small restructuring of blk-mq shared tag support, freeing drivers from iterating hardware queues. From Keith Busch. - A few cfq-iosched tweaks, from Tahsin Erdogan and me. Makes the IOPS mode the default for non-rotational storage" * 'for-4.2/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (35 commits) cfq-iosched: fix other locations where blkcg_to_cfqgd() can return NULL cfq-iosched: fix sysfs oops when attempting to read unconfigured weights cfq-iosched: move group scheduling functions under ifdef cfq-iosched: fix the setting of IOPS mode on SSDs blktrace: Add blktrace.c to BLOCK LAYER in MAINTAINERS file block, cgroup: implement policy-specific per-blkcg data block: Make CFQ default to IOPS mode on SSDs block: add blk_set_queue_dying() to blkdev.h blk-mq: Shared tag enhancements block: don't honor chunk sizes for data-less IO block: only honor SG gap prevention for merges that contain data block: fix returnvar.cocci warnings block, dm: don't copy bios for request clones block: remove management of bi_remaining when restoring original bi_end_io block: replace trylock with mutex_lock in blkdev_reread_part() block: export blkdev_reread_part() and __blkdev_reread_part() suspend: simplify block I/O handling block: collapse bio bit space block: remove unused BIO_RW_BLOCK and BIO_EOF flags block: remove BIO_EOPNOTSUPP ...

blk-mq: free hctx->ctxs in queue's release handler

2015-06-09T21:32:38+00:00

Now blk_cleanup_queue() can be called before calling del_gendisk()[1], inside which hctx->ctxs is touched from blk_mq_unregister_hctx(), but the variable has been freed by blk_cleanup_queue() at that time. So this patch moves freeing of hctx->ctxs into queue's release handler for fixing the oops reported by Stefan.

blk-mq: Shared tag enhancements

2015-06-01T20:35:56+00:00

Storage controllers may expose multiple block devices that share hardware resources managed by blk-mq. This patch enhances the shared tags so a low-level driver can access the shared resources not tied to the unshared h/w contexts. This way the LLD can dynamically add and delete disks and request queues without having to track all the request_queue hctx's to iterate outstanding tags.

block: use an atomic_t for mq_freeze_depth

2015-05-19T15:12:59+00:00

lockdep gets unhappy about the not disabling irqs when using the queue_lock around it. Instead of trying to fix that up just switch to an atomic_t and get rid of the lock. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: make plug work for mutiple disks and queues

2015-05-08T20:17:23+00:00

Last patch makes plug work for multiple queue case. However it only works for single disk case, because it assumes only one request in the plug list. If a task is accessing multiple disks, eg MD/DM, the assumption is wrong. Let blk_attempt_plug_merge() record request from the same queue. V2: use NULL parameter in !mq case. Fix a bug. Add comments in blk_attempt_plug_merge to make it less (hopefully) confusion. Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: do limited block plug for multiple queue case

2015-05-08T20:17:21+00:00

plug is still helpful for workload with IO merge, but it can be harmful otherwise especially with multiple hardware queues, as there is (supposed) no lock contention in this case and plug can introduce latency. For multiple queues, we do limited plug, eg plug only if there is request merge. If a request doesn't have merge with following request, the requet will be dispatched immediately. V2: check blk_queue_nomerges() as suggested by Jeff. Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: avoid re-initialize request which is failed in direct dispatch

2015-05-08T20:17:19+00:00

If we directly issue a request and it fails, we use blk_mq_merge_queue_io(). But we already assigned bio to a request in blk_mq_bio_to_request. blk_mq_merge_queue_io shouldn't run blk_mq_bio_to_request again. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: fix plugging in blk_sq_make_request

2015-05-08T20:17:17+00:00

The following appears in blk_sq_make_request: /* * If we have multiple hardware queues, just go directly to * one of those for sync IO. */ We clearly don't have multiple hardware queues, here! This comment was introduced with this commit 07068d5b8e (blk-mq: split make request handler for multi and single queue): We want slightly different behavior from them: - On single queue devices, we currently use the per-process plug for deferred IO and for merging. - On multi queue devices, we don't use the per-process plug, but we want to go straight to hardware for SYNC IO. The old code had this: use_plug = !is_flush_fua && ((q->nr_hw_queues == 1) || !is_sync); and that was converted to: use_plug = !is_flush_fua && !is_sync; which is not equivalent. For the single queue case, that second half of the && expression is always true. So, what I think was actually inteded follows (and this more closely matches what is done in blk_queue_bio). V2: delete the 'likely', which should not be a big deal Signed-off-by: Jeff Moyer Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

blk-mq: don't lose requests if a stopped queue restarts

2015-05-04T20:32:48+00:00

Normally if driver is busy to dispatch a request the logic is like below: block layer: driver: __blk_mq_run_hw_queue a. blk_mq_stop_hw_queue b. rq add to ctx->dispatch later: 1. blk_mq_start_hw_queue 2. __blk_mq_run_hw_queue But it's possible step 1-2 runs between a and b. And since rq isn't in ctx->dispatch yet, step 2 will not run rq. The rq might get lost if there are no subsequent requests kick in. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
