2021-07-07blk-cgroup: prevent rcu_sched detected stalls warnings while iterating blkgsYu Kuai1-0/+15
We run a test that create millions of cgroups and blkgs, and then trigger blkg_destroy_all(). blkg_destroy_all() will hold spin lock for a long time in such situation. Thus release the lock when a batch of blkgs are destroyed. blkcg_activate_policy() and blkcg_deactivate_policy() might have the same problem, however, as they are basically only called from module init/exit paths, let's leave them alone for now.

2021-07-07block: fix the problem of io_ticks becoming smallerChunguang Xu1-1/+1
On the IO submission path, blk_account_io_start() may interrupt the system interruption. When the interruption returns, the value of part->stamp may have been updated by other cores, so the time value collected before the interruption may be less than part-> stamp. So when this happens, we should do nothing to make io_ticks more accurate? For kernels less than 5.0, this may cause io_ticks to become smaller, which in turn may cause abnormal ioutil values.

2021-06-25bfq: Remove merged request already in bfq_requests_merged()Jan Kara1-28/+13
Currently, bfq does very little in bfq_requests_merged() and handles all the request cleanup in bfq_finish_requeue_request() called from blk_mq_free_request(). That is currently safe only because blk_mq_free_request() is called shortly after bfq_requests_merged() while bfqd->lock is still held. However to fix a lock inversion between bfqd->lock and ioc->lock, we need to call blk_mq_free_request() after dropping bfqd->lock. That would mean that already merged request could be seen by other processes inside bfq queues and possibly dispatched to the device which is wrong. So move cleanup of the request from bfq_finish_requeue_request() to bfq_requests_merged().

For chained bio, trace_block_bio_complete in bio_endio is currently called only by the parent bio once upon all chained bio completed. However, the sector and size for the parent bio are modified in bio_split. Therefore, the size and sector of the complete events might not match the queue events in blktrace.

2021-06-22block, bfq: reset waker pointer with shared queuesPaolo Valente1-2/+4
Commit 85686d0dc194 ("block, bfq: keep shared queues out of the waker mechanism") leaves shared bfq_queues out of the waker-detection mechanism. It attains this goal by not updating the pointer last_completed_rq_bfqq, if the last request completed belongs to a shared bfq_queue (so that the pointer will not point to the shared bfq_queue). Yet this has a side effect: the pointer last_completed_rq_bfqq keeps pointing, deceptively, to a bfq_queue that actually is not the last one to have had a request completed. As a consequence, such a bfq_queue may deceptively be considered as a waker of some bfq_queue, even of some shared bfq_queue. To address this issue, reset last_completed_rq_bfqq if the last request completed belongs to a shared queue.

2021-06-22block, bfq: check waker only for queues with no in-flight I/OPaolo Valente1-8/+13
Consider two bfq_queues, say Q1 and Q2, with Q2 empty. If a request of Q1 gets completed shortly before a new request arrives for Q2, then BFQ flags Q1 as a candidate waker for Q2. Yet, the arrival of this new request may have a different cause, in the following case. If also Q2 has requests in flight while waiting for the arrival of a new request, then the completion of its own requests may be the actual cause of the awakening of the process that sends I/O to Q2. So Q1 may be flagged wrongly as a candidate waker. This commit avoids this deceptive flagging, by disabling candidate-waker flagging for Q2, if Q2 has in-flight I/O.

2021-06-22block, bfq: avoid delayed merge of async queuesPaolo Valente1-1/+7
Since commit 430a67f9d616 ("block, bfq: merge bursts of newly-created queues"), BFQ may schedule a merge between a newly created sync bfq_queue, say Q2, and the last sync bfq_queue created, say Q1. To this goal, BFQ stores the address of Q1 in the field bic->stable_merge_bfqq of the bic associated with Q2. So, when the time for the possible merge arrives, BFQ knows which bfq_queue to merge Q2 with. In particular, BFQ checks for possible merges on request arrivals. Yet the same bic may also be associated with an async bfq_queue, say Q3. So, if a request for Q3 arrives, then the above check may happen to be executed while the bfq_queue at hand is Q3, instead of Q2. In this case, Q1 happens to be merged with an async bfq_queue. This is not only a conceptual mistake, because async queues are to be kept out of queue merging, but also a bug that leads to inconsistent states. This commits simply filters async queues out of delayed merges.

2021-06-22block, bfq: boost throughput by extending queue-merging timesPietro Pedroni1-3/+13
One of the methods with which bfq boosts throughput is by merging queues. One of the merging variants in bfq is the stable merge. This mechanism is activated between two queues only if they are created within a certain maximum time T1 from each other. Merging can happen soon or be delayed. In the second case, before merging, bfq needs to evaluate a throughput-boost parameter that indicates whether the queue generates a high throughput is served alone. Merging occurs when this throughput-boost is not high enough. In particular, this parameter is evaluated and late merging may occur only after at least a time T2 from the creation of the queue. Currently T1 and T2 are set to 180ms and 200ms, respectively. In this way the merging mechanism rarely occurs because time is not enough. This results in a noticeable lowering of the overall throughput with some workloads (see the example below). This commit introduces two constants bfq_activation_stable_merging and bfq_late_stable_merging in order to increase the duration of T1 and T2. Both the stable merging activation time and the late merging time are set to 600ms. This value has been experimentally evaluated using sqlite benchmark in the Phoronix Test Suite on a HDD. The duration of the benchmark before this fix was 111.02s, while now it has reached 97.02s, a better result than that of all the other schedulers.

2021-06-22block, bfq: consider also creation time in delayed stable mergePaolo Valente1-1/+3
Since commit 430a67f9d616 ("block, bfq: merge bursts of newly-created queues"), BFQ may schedule a merge between a newly created sync bfq_queue and the last sync bfq_queue created. Such a merging is not performed immediately, because BFQ needs first to find out whether the newly created queue actually reaches a higher throughput if not merged at all (and in that case BFQ will not perform any stable merging). To check that, a little time must be waited after the creation of the new queue, so that some I/O can flow in the queue, and statistics on such I/O can be computed. Yet, to evaluate the above waiting time, the last split time is considered as start time, instead of the creation time of the queue. This is a mistake, because considering the split time is correct only in the following scenario. The queue undergoes a non-stable merges on the arrival of its very first I/O request, due to close I/O with some other queue. While the queue is merged for close I/O, stable merging is not considered. Yet the queue may then happen to be split, if the close I/O finishes (or happens to be a false positive). From this time on, the queue can again be considered for stable merging. But, again, a little time must elapse, to let some new I/O flow in the queue and to get updated statistics. To wait for this time, the split time is to be taken into account. Yet, if the queue does not undergo a non-stable merge on the arrival of its very first request, then BFQ immediately checks whether the stable merge is to be performed. It happens because the split time for a queue is initialized to minus infinity when the queue is created. This commit fixes this mistake by adding the missing condition. Now the check for delayed stable-merge is performed after a little time is elapsed not only from the last queue split time, but also from the creation time of the queue.

2021-06-22block, bfq: fix delayed stable merge checkLuca Mariotti1-1/+1
When attempting to schedule a merge of a given bfq_queue with the currently in-service bfq_queue or with a cooperating bfq_queue among the scheduled bfq_queues, delayed stable merge is checked for rotational or non-queueing devs. For this stable merge to be performed, some conditions must be met. If the current bfq_queue underwent some split from some merged bfq_queue, one of these conditions is that two hundred milliseconds must elapse from split, otherwise this condition is always met. Unfortunately, by mistake, time_is_after_jiffies() was written instead of time_is_before_jiffies() for this check, verifying that less than two hundred milliseconds have elapsed instead of verifying that at least two hundred milliseconds have elapsed.

2021-06-22block, bfq: let also stably merged queues enjoy weight raisingPaolo Valente1-1/+14
Merged bfq_queues are kept out of weight-raising (low-latency) mechanisms. The reason is that these queues are usually created for non-interactive and non-soft-real-time tasks. Yet this is not the case for stably-merged queues. These queues are merged just because they are created shortly after each other. So they may easily serve the I/O of an interactive or soft-real time application, if the application happens to spawn multiple processes. To address this issue, this commits lets also stably-merged queued enjoy weight raising.

rwb_enabled() Now that we disable wbt by simply zero out rwb->wb_normal in wbt_disable_default() when switch elevator to bfq, but it's not safe because it will become false positive if we change queue depth. If it become false positive between wbt_wait() and wbt_track() when submit write request, it will lead to drop rqw->inflight to -1 in wbt_done(), which will end up trigger IO hung.

2021-06-22block/mq-deadline: Micro-optimize the batching algorithmBart Van Assche1-6/+5
When dispatching the first request of a batch, the deadline_move_request() call clears .next_rq[] for the opposite data direction. .next_rq[] is not restored when changing data direction. Fix this by not clearing .next_rq[] and by keeping track of the data direction of a batch in a variable instead. This patch is a micro-optimization because: - The number of deadline_next_request() calls for the read direction is halved. - The number of times that deadline_next_request() returns NULL is reduced.

2021-06-18block: Remove unnecessary elevator operation checksDamien Le Moal2-7/+10
The insert_requests and dispatch_request elevator operations are mandatory for the correct execution of an elevator, and all implemented elevators (bfq, kyber and mq-deadline) implement them. As a result, there is no need to check for these operations before calling them when a queue has an elevator set. This simplifies the code in __blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests() and blk_mq_sched_insert_request(). To avoid out-of-tree elevators to crash the kernel in case of bad implementation, add a check in elv_register() to verify that these operations are implemented. A small, probably not significant, IOPS improvement of 0.1% is observed with this patch applied (4.117 MIOPS to 4.123 MIOPS, average of 20 fio runs doing 4K random direct reads with psync and 32 jobs).
