Pull MD updates from Shaohua Li:
- Add Partial Parity Log (ppl) feature found in Intel IMSM raid array
by Artur Paszkiewicz. This feature is another way to close RAID5
writehole. The Linux implementation is also available for normal
RAID5 array if specific superblock bit is set.
- A number of md-cluser fixes and enabling md-cluster array resize from
Guoqing Jiang
- A bunch of patches from Ming Lei and Neil Brown to rewrite MD bio
handling related code. Now MD doesn't directly access bio bvec,
bi_phys_segments and uses modern bio API for bio split.
- Improve RAID5 IO pattern to improve performance for hard disk based
RAID5/6 from me.
- Several patches from Song Liu to speed up raid5-cache recovery and
allow raid5 cache feature disabling in runtime.
- Fix a performance regression in raid1 resync from Xiao Ni.
- Other cleanup and fixes from various people.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
- Add BFQ IO scheduler under the new blk-mq scheduling framework. BFQ
was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement
fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant
to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness.
From Paolo.
- Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler,
using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on
live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.
- A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing
devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life
times, solving various problems with hot removal.
- A series of updates for lightnvm, mostly from Javier. Includes a
'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block
device.
- A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.
- A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
more than a decade.
- Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.
- blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
marked experimental for now.
- Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves
efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size
IO.
- A few fixes for opal, from Scott.
- A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics.
From a variety of folks, mostly Sagi and James Smart.
- A series from Bart, improving our exposed info and capabilities from
the blk-mq debugfs support.
- A series from Christoph, cleaning up how handle WRITE_ZEROES.
- A series from Christoph, cleaning up the block layer handling of how
we track errors in a request. On top of being a nice cleanup, it also

never used by platforms, and the latter has outlived it's usefulness.
- Various little bug fixes and cleanups from a wide variety of folks.

Commit 99e6608c9e74 "block: Add badblock management for gendisks"
allowed for drivers like pmem and software-raid to advertise a list of
bad media areas. However, it inadvertently added a 'badblocks' to all
block devices. Lets clean this up by having the 'badblocks' attribute
not be visible when the driver has not populated a 'struct badblocks'
instance in the gendisk.

The only difference between ->run_work and ->delay_work, is that
the latter is used to defer running a queue. This is done by
marking the queue stopped, and scheduling ->delay_work to run
sometime in the future. While the queue is stopped, direct runs
or runs through ->run_work will not run the queue.
If we combine the handlers, then we need to handle two things:
1) If a delayed/stopped run is scheduled, then we should not run
the queue before that has been completed.
2) If a queue is delayed/stopped, the handler needs to restart
the queue. Normally a run of a queue with the stopped bit set
would be a no-op.
Case 1 is handled by modifying a currently pending queue run
to the deadline set by the caller of blk_mq_delay_queue().
Subsequent attempts to queue a queue run will find the work
item already pending, and direct runs will see a stopped queue
as before.
Case 2 is handled by adding a new bit, BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN,
that tells the work handler that it should clear a stopped
queue and run the handler.

At least one driver, mtip32xx, has a hard coded dependency on
the value of the reserved tag used for internal commands. While
that should really be fixed up, for now let's ensure that we just
bypass the scheduler tags an allocation marked as reserved. They
are used for house keeping or error handling, so we can safely
ignore them in the scheduler.

We currently call blk_mq_free_queue() from blk_cleanup_queue()
before we unregister the debugfs attributes for that queue in
blk_release_queue(). This leaves a window open during which
accessing most of the mq debugfs attributes would cause a
use-after-free. Additionally, the "state" attribute allows
running the queue, which we should not do after the queue has
entered the "dead" state. Fix both cases by unregistering the
debugfs attributes before freeing queue resources starts.

Commit 25520d55cdb6 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk")
introduced blk_integrity_revalidate(), which seems to assume ownership
of the stable pages flag and unilaterally clears it if no blk_integrity
profile is registered:
if (bi->profile)
disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities |=
BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;
else
disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities &=
~BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;
It's called from revalidate_disk() and rescan_partitions(), making it
impossible to enable stable pages for drivers that support partitions
and don't use blk_integrity: while the call in revalidate_disk() can be
trivially worked around (see zram, which doesn't support partitions and
hence gets away with zram_revalidate_disk()), rescan_partitions() can
be triggered from userspace at any time. This breaks rbd, where the
ceph messenger is responsible for generating/verifying CRCs.
Since blk_integrity_{un,}register() "must" be used for (un)registering
the integrity profile with the block layer, move BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES
setting there. This way drivers that call blk_integrity_register() and
use integrity infrastructure won't interfere with drivers that don't
but still want stable pages.

Now that all drivers that call blk_mq_complete_requests have a
->complete callback we can remove the direct call to blk_mq_end_request,
as well as the error argument to blk_mq_complete_request.

This passes on the scsi_cmnd result field to users of passthrough
requests. Currently we abuse req->errors for this purpose, but that
field will go away in its current form.
Note that the old IDE code abuses the errors field in very creative
ways and stores all kinds of different values in it. I didn't dare
to touch this magic, so the abuses are brought forward 1:1.

The function only returns -EIO if rq->errors is non-zero, which is not
very useful and lets a large number of callers ignore the return value.
Just let the callers figure out their error themselves.

The call to bfq_check_ioprio_change will dereference bic, however,
the null check for bic is after this call. Move the the null
check on bic to before the call to avoid any potential null

When CFQ is used as an elevator, it disables writeback throttling
because they don't play well together. Later when a different elevator
is chosen for the device, writeback throttling doesn't get enabled
again as it should. Make sure CFQ enables writeback throttling (if it
should be enabled by default) when we switch from it to another IO
scheduler.

The BFQ I/O scheduler features an optimal fair-queuing
(proportional-share) scheduling algorithm, enriched with several
mechanisms to boost throughput and reduce latency for interactive and
real-time applications. This makes BFQ a large and complex piece of
code. This commit addresses this issue by splitting BFQ into three
main, independent components, and by moving each component into a
separate source file:
1. Main algorithm: handles the interaction with the kernel, and
decides which requests to dispatch; it uses the following two further
components to achieve its goals.
2. Scheduling engine (Hierarchical B-WF2Q+ scheduling algorithm):
computes the schedule, using weights and budgets provided by the above
component.
3. cgroups support: handles group operations (creation, destruction,
move, ...).

When a bfq queue is set in service and when it is merged, a reference
to the I/O context associated with the queue is taken. This reference
is then released when the queue is deselected from service or
split. More precisely, the release of the reference is postponed to
when the scheduler lock is released, to avoid nesting between the
scheduler and the I/O-context lock. In fact, such nesting would lead
to deadlocks, because of other code paths that take the same locks in
the opposite order. This postponing of I/O-context releases does
complicate code.
This commit addresses these issue by modifying involved operations in
such a way to not need to get the above I/O-context references any
more. Then it also removes any get and release of these references.

Many popular I/O-intensive services or applications spawn or
reactivate many parallel threads/processes during short time
intervals. Examples are systemd during boot or git grep. These
services or applications benefit mostly from a high throughput: the
quicker the I/O generated by their processes is cumulatively served,
the sooner the target job of these services or applications gets
completed. As a consequence, it is almost always counterproductive to
weight-raise any of the queues associated to the processes of these
services or applications: in most cases it would just lower the
throughput, mainly because weight-raising also implies device idling.
To address this issue, an I/O scheduler needs, first, to detect which
queues are associated with these services or applications. In this
respect, we have that, from the I/O-scheduler standpoint, these
services or applications cause bursts of activations, i.e.,
activations of different queues occurring shortly after each
other. However, a shorter burst of activations may be caused also by
the start of an application that does not consist in a lot of parallel
I/O-bound threads (see the comments on the function bfq_handle_burst
for details).
In view of these facts, this commit introduces:
1) an heuristic to detect (only) bursts of queue activations caused by
services or applications consisting in many parallel I/O-bound
threads;
2) the prevention of device idling and weight-raising for the queues
belonging to these bursts.

This patch is basically the counterpart, for NCQ-capable rotational
devices, of the previous patch. Exactly as the previous patch does on
flash-based devices and for any workload, this patch disables device
idling on rotational devices, but only for random I/O. In fact, only
with these queues disabling idling boosts the throughput on
NCQ-capable rotational devices. To not break service guarantees,
idling is disabled for NCQ-enabled rotational devices only when the
same symmetry conditions considered in the previous patches hold.
