[ Upstream commit 7567c2a2ad9e80a2ce977eef535e64b61899633e ]

Forgot to include the maintainers with my first email.

Somewhere between Michael Lyle's original
"bcache: PI controller for writeback rate V2" patch dated 07 Sep 2017
and 1d316e6 bcache: implement PI controller for writeback rate,
the mapping of the writeback_rate_minimum attribute was dropped.

Re-add the missing sysfs writeback_rate_minimum attribute mapping to
"allow the user to specify a minimum rate at which dirty blocks are
retired."

Fixes: 1d316e6 ("bcache: implement PI controller for writeback rate")

<id>urn:sha1:e52ad8e0ef53b1a60105b048704ac8b2fea6f014</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2d6cb6edd2c7fb4f40998895bda45006281b1ac5 upstream.

refill-&gt;end record the last key of writeback, for example, at the first
time, keys (1,128K) to (1,1024K) are flush to the backend device, but
the end key (1,1024K) is not included, since the bellow code:
	if (bkey_cmp(k, refill-&gt;end) &gt;= 0) {
		ret = MAP_DONE;
		goto out;
	}
And in the next time when we refill writeback keybuf again, we searched
key start from (1,1024K), and got a key bigger than it, so the key
(1,1024K) missed.
This patch modify the above code, and let the end key to be included to
the writeback key buffer.

commit 2e17a262a2371d38d2ec03614a2675a32cef9912 upstream.

When bcache device is clean, dirty keys may still exist after
journal replay, so we need to count these dirty keys even
device in clean status, otherwise after writeback, the amount
of dirty data would be incorrect.

commit dd0c91793b7c2658ea32c6b3a2247a8ceca45dc0 upstream.

When doing ioctl in flash device, it will call ioctl_dev() in super.c,
then we should not to get cached device since flash only device has
no backend device. This patch just move the jugement dc-&gt;io_disable
to cached_dev_ioctl() to make ioctl in flash device correctly.

commit 502b291568fc7faf1ebdb2c2590f12851db0ff76 upstream.

Missed reading IOs are identified by s-&gt;cache_missed, not the
s-&gt;cache_miss, so in trace_bcache_read() using trace_bcache_read
to identify whether the IO is missed or not.

<title>bcache: add separate workqueue for journal_write to avoid deadlock</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0f843e65d9eef4936929bb036c5f771fb261eea4</id>
<content type='text'>
After write SSD completed, bcache schedules journal_write work to
system_wq, which is a public workqueue in system, without WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
flag. system_wq is also a bound wq, and there may be no idle kworker on
current processor. Creating a new kworker may unfortunately need to
reclaim memory first, by shrinking cache and slab used by vfs, which
depends on bcache device. That's a deadlock.

This patch create a new workqueue for journal_write with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
flag. It's rescuer thread will work to avoid the deadlock.

The writeback thread would exit with a lock held when the cache device
is detached via sysfs interface, fix it by releasing the held lock
before exiting the while-loop.

<content type='text'>
Now we have crc64 calculation in lib/crc64.c, it is unnecessary for
bcache to use its own version.  This patch changes bcache code to use
crc64 routines in lib/crc64.c.
