Currently t10_pi_prepare/t10_pi_complete functions are called during the
NVMe and SCSi layers command preparetion/completion, but their actual
place should be the block layer since T10-PI is a general data integrity
feature that is used by block storage protocols. Introduce .prepare_fn
and .complete_fn callbacks within the integrity profile that each type
can implement according to its needs.

Currently rq-&gt;data_len will be decreased by partial completion or
zeroed by completion, so when blk_stat_add() is invoked, data_len
will be zero and there will never be samples in poll_cb because
blk_mq_poll_stats_bkt() will return -1 if data_len is zero.

We could move blk_stat_add() back to __blk_mq_complete_request(),
but that would make the effort of trying to call ktime_get_ns()
once in vain. Instead we can reuse throtl_size field, and use
it for both block stats and block throttle, and adjust the
logic in blk_mq_poll_stats_bkt() accordingly.

<title>block: Introduce elevator features</title>

<id>urn:sha1:68c43f133a754c7bf5cb1018bb16dc0821cc43a1</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce the definition of elevator features through the
elevator_features flags in the elevator_type structure. Each flag can
represent a feature supported by an elevator. The first feature defined
by this patch is support for zoned block device sequential write
constraint with the flag ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE, which is implemented
by the mq-deadline elevator using zone write locking.

Other possible features are IO priorities, write hints, latency targets
or single-LUN dual-actuator disks (for which the elevator could maintain
one LBA ordered list per actuator).

The required_elevator_features field is also added to the request_queue
structure to allow a device driver to specify elevator feature flags
that an elevator must support for the correct operation of the device
(e.g. device drivers for zoned block devices can have the
ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE flag as a required feature).
The helper function blk_queue_required_elevator_features() is
defined for setting this new field.

With these two new fields in place, the elevator functions
elevator_match() and elevator_find() are modified to allow a user to set
only an elevator with a set of features that satisfies the device
required features. Elevators not matching the device requirements are
not shown in the device sysfs queue/scheduler file to prevent their use.

The "none" elevator can always be selected as before.

<content type='text'>
There are currently two start time timestamps - start_time_ns and
io_start_time_ns.  The former marks the request allocation and and the
second issue-to-device time.  The planned io.weight controller needs
to measure the total time bios take to execute after it leaves rq_qos
including the time spent waiting for request to become available,
which can easily dominate on saturated devices.

This patch adds request-&gt;alloc_time_ns which records when the request
allocation attempt started.  As it isn't used for the usual stats,
make it optional behind CONFIG_BLK_RQ_ALLOC_TIME and
QUEUE_FLAG_RQ_ALLOC_TIME so that it can be compiled out when there are
no users and it's active only on queues which need it even when
compiled in.

v2: s/pre_start_time/alloc_time/ and add CONFIG_BLK_RQ_ALLOC_TIME
    gating as suggested by Jens.

<title>block: split .sysfs_lock into two locks</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cecf5d87ff2035127bb5a9ee054d0023a4a7cad3</id>
<content type='text'>
The kernfs built-in lock of 'kn-&gt;count' is held in sysfs .show/.store
path. Meantime, inside block's .show/.store callback, q-&gt;sysfs_lock is
required.

However, when mq &amp; iosched kobjects are removed via
blk_mq_unregister_dev() &amp; elv_unregister_queue(), q-&gt;sysfs_lock is held
too. This way causes AB-BA lock because the kernfs built-in lock of
'kn-count' is required inside kobject_del() too, see the lockdep warning[1].

On the other hand, it isn't necessary to acquire q-&gt;sysfs_lock for
both blk_mq_unregister_dev() &amp; elv_unregister_queue() because
clearing REGISTERED flag prevents storing to 'queue/scheduler'
from being happened. Also sysfs write(store) is exclusive, so no
necessary to hold the lock for elv_unregister_queue() when it is
called in switching elevator path.

So split .sysfs_lock into two: one is still named as .sysfs_lock for
covering sync .store, the other one is named as .sysfs_dir_lock
for covering kobjects and related status change.

sysfs itself can handle the race between add/remove kobjects and
showing/storing attributes under kobjects. For switching scheduler
via storing to 'queue/scheduler', we use the queue flag of
QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED with .sysfs_lock for avoiding the race, then
we can avoid to hold .sysfs_lock during removing/adding kobjects.
