2012-08-21workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of __cancel + queueTejun Heo
Now that mod_delayed_work() is safe to call from IRQ handlers, __cancel_delayed_work() followed by queue_delayed_work() can be replaced with mod_delayed_work(). Most conversions are straight-forward except for the following. * net/core/link_watch.c: linkwatch_schedule_work() was doing a quite elaborate dancing around its delayed_work. Collapse it such that linkwatch_work is queued for immediate execution if LW_URGENT and existing timer is kept otherwise. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: "David S.

2012-06-25block: allocate io_context upfrontTejun Heo
Block layer very lazy allocation of ioc. It waits until the moment ioc is absolutely necessary; unfortunately, that time could be inside queue lock and __get_request() performs unlock - try alloc - retry dancing. Just allocate it up-front on entry to block layer. We're not saving the rain forest by deferring it to the last possible moment and complicating things unnecessarily. This patch is to prepare for further updates to request allocation path. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2012-05-23blkcg: tg_stats_alloc_lock is an irq lockTejun Heo
tg_stats_alloc_lock nests inside queue lock and should always be held with irq disabled. throtl_pd_{init|exit}() were using non-irqsafe spinlock ops which triggered inverse lock ordering via irq warning via RCU freeing of blkg invoking throtl_pd_exit() w/o disabling IRQ.

2012-04-20blkcg: embed struct blkg_policy_data in policy specific dataTejun Heo
Currently blkg_policy_data carries policy specific data as char flex array instead of being embedded in policy specific data. This was forced by oddities around blkg allocation which are all gone now. This patch makes blkg_policy_data embedded in policy specific data - throtl_grp and cfq_group so that it's more conventional and consistent with how io_cq is handled. * blkcg_policy->pdata_size is renamed to ->pd_size. * Functions which used to take void *pdata now takes struct blkg_policy_data *pd. * blkg_to_pdata/pdata_to_blkg() updated to blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg(). * Dummy struct blkg_policy_data definition added. Dummy pdata_to_blkg() definition was unused and inconsistent with the non-dummy version - correct dummy pd_to_blkg() added. * throtl and cfq updated accordingly. * As dummy blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg() are provided, blkg_to_cfqg/cfqg_to_blkg() don't need to be ifdef'd.

2012-04-20blkcg: implement per-queue policy activationTejun Heo
All blkcg policies were assumed to be enabled on all request_queues. Due to various implementation obstacles, during the recent blkcg core updates, this was temporarily implemented as shooting down all !root blkgs on elevator switch and policy [de]registration combined with half-broken in-place root blkg updates. In addition to being buggy and racy, this meant losing all blkcg configurations across those events. Now that blkcg is cleaned up enough, this patch replaces the temporary implementation with proper per-queue policy activation. Each blkcg policy should call the new blkcg_[de]activate_policy() to enable and disable the policy on a specific queue. blkcg_activate_policy() allocates and installs policy data for the policy for all existing blkgs. blkcg_deactivate_policy() does the reverse. If a policy is not enabled for a given queue, blkg printing / config functions skip the respective blkg for the queue. blkcg_activate_policy() also takes care of root blkg creation, and cfq_init_queue() and blk_throtl_init() are updated accordingly. This replaces blkcg_bypass_{start|end}() and update_root_blkg_pd() unnecessary. Dropped. v2: cfq_init_queue() was returning uninitialized @ret on root_group alloc failure if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED. Fixed.

blkio_group_stats_cpu is used to count dispatch stats using per-cpu counters. This is used by both blk-throtl and cfq-iosched but the sharing is rather silly. * cfq-iosched doesn't need per-cpu dispatch stats. cfq always updates those stats while holding queue_lock. * blk-throtl needs per-cpu dispatch stats but only service_bytes and serviced.

2012-04-01blkcg: move statistics update code to policiesTejun Heo
As with conf/stats file handling code, there's no reason for stat update code to live in blkcg core with policies calling into update them. The current organization is both inflexible and complex. This patch moves stat update code to specific policies. All blkiocg_update_*_stats() functions which deal with BLKIO_POLICY_PROP stats are collapsed into their cfq_blkiocg_update_*_stats() counterparts. blkiocg_update_dispatch_stats() is used by both policies and duplicated as throtl_update_dispatch_stats() and cfq_blkiocg_update_dispatch_stats(). This will be cleaned up later. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2012-04-01blkcg: move conf/stat file handling code to policiesTejun Heo
blkcg conf/stat handling is convoluted in that details which belong to specific policy implementations are all out in blkcg core and then policies hook into core layer to access and manipulate confs and stats. This sadly achieves both inflexibility (confs/stats can't be modified without messing with blkcg core) and complexity (all the call-ins and call-backs). The previous patches restructured conf and stat handling code such that they can be separated out. This patch relocates the file handling part. All conf/stat file handling code which belongs to BLKIO_POLICY_PROP is moved to cfq-iosched.c and all BKLIO_POLICY_THROTL code to blk-throtl.c. The move is verbatim except for blkio_update_group_{weight|bps|iops}() callbacks which relays conf changes to policies. The configuration settings are handled in policies themselves so the relaying isn't necessary. Conf setting functions are modified to directly call per-policy update functions and the relaying mechanism is dropped. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2012-03-06blkcg: drop unnecessary RCU lockingTejun Heo
Now that blkg additions / removals are always done under both q and blkcg locks, the only places RCU locking is necessary are blkg_lookup[_create]() for lookup w/o blkcg lock. This patch drops unncessary RCU locking replacing it with plain blkcg locking as necessary. * blkiocg_pre_destroy() already perform proper locking and don't need RCU. Dropped. * blkio_read_blkg_stats() now uses blkcg->lock instead of RCU read lock. This isn't a hot path. * Now unnecessary synchronize_rcu() from queue exit paths removed. This makes q->nr_blkgs unnecessary. Dropped. * RCU annotation on blkg->q removed. -v2: Vivek pointed out that blkg_lookup_create() still needs to be called under rcu_read_lock().

2012-03-06blkcg: unify blkg's for blkcg policiesTejun Heo
Currently, blkg is per cgroup-queue-policy combination. This is unnatural and leads to various convolutions in partially used duplicate fields in blkg, config / stat access, and general management of blkgs. This patch make blkg's per cgroup-queue and let them serve all policies. blkgs are now created and destroyed by blkcg core proper. This will allow further consolidation of common management logic into blkcg core and API with better defined semantics and layering. As a transitional step to untangle blkg management, elvswitch and policy [de]registration, all blkgs except the root blkg are being shot down during elvswitch and bypass. This patch adds blkg_root_update() to update root blkg in place on policy change. This is hacky and racy but should be good enough as interim step until we get locking simplified and switch over to proper in-place update for all blkgs. -v2: Root blkgs need to be updated on elvswitch too and blkg_alloc() comment wasn't updated according to the function change. Fixed. Both pointed out by Vivek. -v3: v2 updated blkg_destroy_all() to invoke update_root_blkg_pd() for all policies. This freed root pd during elvswitch before the last queue finished exiting and led to oops. Directly invoke update_root_blkg_pd() only on BLKIO_POLICY_PROP from cfq_exit_queue(). This also is closer to what will be done with proper in-place blkg update. Reported by Vivek.

2012-03-06blkcg: let blkcg core manage per-queue blkg list and counterTejun Heo
With the previous patch to move blkg list heads and counters to request_queue and blkg, logic to manage them in both policies are almost identical and can be moved to blkcg core. This patch moves blkg link logic into blkg_lookup_create(), implements common blkg unlink code in blkg_destroy(), and updates blkg_destory_all() so that it's policy specific and can skip root group. The updated blkg_destroy_all() is now used to both clear queue for bypassing and elv switching, and release all blkgs on q exit. This patch introduces a race window where policy [de]registration may race against queue blkg clearing. This can only be a problem on cfq unload and shouldn't be a real problem in practice (and we have many other places where this race already exists). Future patches will remove these unlikely races.

2012-03-06blkcg: move per-queue blkg list heads and counters to queue and blkgTejun Heo
Currently, specific policy implementations are responsible for maintaining list and number of blkgs. This duplicates code unnecessarily, and hinders factoring common code and providing blkcg API with better defined semantics. After this patch, request_queue hosts list heads and counters and blkg has list nodes for both policies. This patch only relocates the necessary fields and the next patch will actually move management code into blkcg core. Note that request_queue->blkg_list[] and ->nr_blkgs[] are hardcoded to have 2 elements. This is to avoid include dependency and will be removed by the next patch.

2012-03-06blkcg: let blkcg core handle policy private data allocationTejun Heo
Currently, blkg's are embedded in private data blkcg policy private data structure and thus allocated and freed by policies. This leads to duplicate codes in policies, hinders implementing common part in blkcg core with strong semantics, and forces duplicate blkg's for the same cgroup-q association. This patch introduces struct blkg_policy_data which is a separate data structure chained from blkg. Policies specifies the amount of private data it needs in its blkio_policy_type->pdata_size and blkcg core takes care of allocating them along with blkg which can be accessed using blkg_to_pdata(). blkg can be determined from pdata using pdata_to_blkg(). blkio_alloc_group_fn() method is accordingly updated to blkio_init_group_fn(). For consistency, tg_of_blkg() and cfqg_of_blkg() are replaced with blkg_to_tg() and blkg_to_cfqg() respectively, and functions to map in the reverse direction are added. Except that policy specific data now lives in a separate data structure from blkg, this patch doesn't introduce any functional difference. This will be used to unify blkg's for different policies.

2012-03-06blkcg: kill the mind-bending blkg->devTejun Heo
blkg->dev is dev_t recording the device number of the block device for the associated request_queue. It is used to identify the associated block device when printing out configuration or stats. This is redundant to begin with. A blkg is an association between a cgroup and a request_queue and it of course is possible to reach request_queue from blkg and synchronization conventions are in place for safe q dereferencing, so this shouldn't be necessary from the beginning. Furthermore, it's initialized by sscanf()ing the device name of backing_dev_info. The mind boggles. Anyways, if blkg is visible under rcu lock, we *know* that the associated request_queue hasn't gone away yet and its bdi is registered and alive - blkg can't be created for request_queue which hasn't been fully initialized and it can't go away before blkg is removed. Let stat and conf read functions get device name from blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev and pass it down to printing functions and remove blkg->dev.

2012-03-06blkcg: don't allow or retain configuration of missing devicesTejun Heo
blkcg is very peculiar in that it allows setting and remembering configurations for non-existent devices by maintaining separate data structures for configuration. This behavior is completely out of the usual norms and outright confusing; furthermore, it uses dev_t number to match the configuration to devices, which is unpredictable to begin with and becomes completely unuseable if EXT_DEVT is fully used. It is wholely unnecessary - we already have fully functional userland mechanism to program devices being hotplugged which has full access to device identification, connection topology and filesystem information. Add a new struct blkio_group_conf which contains all blkcg configurations to blkio_group and let blkio_group, which can be created iff the associated device exists and is removed when the associated device goes away, carry all configurations. Note that, after this patch, all newly created blkg's will always have the default configuration (unlimited for throttling and blkcg's weight for propio). This patch makes blkio_policy_node meaningless but doesn't remove it. The next patch will. -v2: Updated to retry after short sleep if blkg lookup/creation failed due to the queue being temporarily bypassed as indicated by -EBUSY return. Pointed out by Vivek.

2012-03-06blkcg: factor out blkio_group creationTejun Heo
Currently both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched implement their own blkio_group creation code in throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg(). This patch factors out the common code into blkg_lookup_create(), which returns ERR_PTR value so that transitional failures due to queue bypass can be distinguished from other failures. * New plkio_policy_ops methods blkio_alloc_group_fn() and blkio_link_group_fn added. Both are transitional and will be removed once the blkg management code is fully moved into blk-cgroup.c. * blkio_alloc_group_fn() allocates policy-specific blkg which is usually a larger data structure with blkg as the first entry and intiailizes it. Note that initialization of blkg proper, including percpu stats, is responsibility of blk-cgroup proper. Note that default config (weight, bps...) initialization is done from this method; otherwise, we end up violating locking order between blkcg and q locks via blkcg_get_CONF() functions. * blkio_link_group_fn() is called under queue_lock and responsible for linking the blkg to the queue. blkcg side is handled by blk-cgroup proper. * The common blkg creation function is named blkg_lookup_create() and blkiocg_lookup_group() is renamed to blkg_lookup() for consistency. Also, throtl / cfq related functions are similarly [re]named for consistency. This simplifies blkcg policy implementations and enables further cleanup. -v2: Vivek noticed that blkg_lookup_create() incorrectly tested blk_queue_dead() instead of blk_queue_bypass() leading a user of the function ending up creating a new blkg on bypassing queue. This is a bug introduced while relocating bypass patches before this one. Fixed. -v3: ERR_PTR patch folded into this one. @for_root added to blkg_lookup_create() to allow creating root group on a bypassed queue during elevator switch.

2012-03-06blkcg: use the usual get blkg path for root blkio_groupTejun Heo
For root blkg, blk_throtl_init() was using throtl_alloc_tg() explicitly and cfq_init_queue() was manually initializing embedded cfqd->root_group, adding unnecessarily different code paths to blkg handling. Make both use the usual blkio_group get functions - throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg() - for the root blkio_group too. Note that blk_throtl_init() callsite is pushed downwards in blk_alloc_queue_node() so that @q is sufficiently initialized for throtl_get_tg(). This simplifies root blkg handling noticeably for cfq and will allow further modularization of blkcg API. -v2: Vivek pointed out that using cfq_get_cfqg() won't work if CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED is disabled. Fix it by factoring out initialization of base part of cfqg into cfq_init_cfqg_base() and alloc/init/free explicitly if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.

2012-03-06blkcg: use q and plid instead of opaque void * for blkio_group associationTejun Heo
blkgio_group is association between a block cgroup and a queue for a given policy. Using opaque void * for association makes things confusing and hinders factoring of common code. Use request_queue * and, if necessary, policy id instead. This will help block cgroup API cleanup.

In both blkg get functions - throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg(), instead of obtaining blkcg of %current explicitly, let the caller specify the blkcg to use as parameter and make both functions hold on to the blkcg.

rcu_read_lock() in throtl_get_tb() and cfq_get_cfqg() holds onto @blkcg while looking up blkg. For API cleanup, the next patch will make the caller responsible for determining @blkcg to look blkg from and let them specify it as a parameter. Move rcu read locking out to the callers to prepare for the change. -v2: Originally this patch was described as a fix for RCU read locking bug around @blkg, which Vivek pointed out to be incorrect. It was from misunderstanding the role of rcu locking as protecting @blkg not @blkcg. Patch description updated.

2012-03-06blkcg: shoot down blkio_groups on elevator switchTejun Heo
Elevator switch may involve changes to blkcg policies. Implement shoot down of blkio_groups. Combined with the previous bypass updates, the end goal is updating blkcg core such that it can ensure that blkcg's being affected become quiescent and don't have any per-blkg data hanging around before commencing any policy updates. Until queues are made aware of the policies that applies to them, as an interim step, all per-policy blkg data will be shot down. * blk-throtl doesn't need this change as it can't be disabled for a live queue; however, update it anyway as the scheduled blkg unification requires this behavior change. This means that blk-throtl configuration will be unnecessarily lost over elevator switch. This oddity will be removed after blkcg learns to associate individual policies with request_queues. * blk-throtl dosen't shoot down root_tg. This is to ease transition. Unified blkg will always have persistent root group and not shooting down root_tg for now eases transition to that point by avoiding having to update td->root_tg and is safe as blk-throtl can never be disabled -v2: Vivek pointed out that group list is not guaranteed to be empty on return from clear function if it raced cgroup removal and lost. Fix it by waiting a bit and retrying. This kludge will soon be removed once locking is updated such that blkg is never in limbo state between blkcg and request_queue locks. blk-throtl no longer shoots down root_tg to avoid breaking td->root_tg. Also, Nest queue_lock inside blkio_list_lock not the other way around to avoid introduce possible deadlock via blkcg lock. -v3: blkcg_clear_queue() repositioned and renamed to blkg_destroy_all() to increase consistency with later changes. cfq_clear_queue() updated to check q->elevator before dereferencing it to avoid NULL dereference on not fully initialized queues (used by later change).

2012-03-06block: extend queue bypassing to cover blkcg policiesTejun Heo
Extend queue bypassing such that dying queue is always bypassing and blk-throttle is drained on bypass. With blkcg policies updated to test blk_queue_bypass() instead of blk_queue_dead(), this ensures that no bio or request is held by or going through blkcg policies on a bypassing queue.

2011-10-19block: fix request_queue lifetime handling by making blk_queue_cleanup() ↵Tejun Heo
properly shutdown request_queue is refcounted but actually depdends on lifetime management from the queue owner - on blk_cleanup_queue(), block layer expects that there's no request passing through request_queue and no new one will. This is fundamentally broken. The queue owner (e.g. SCSI layer) doesn't have a way to know whether there are other active users before calling blk_cleanup_queue() and other users (e.g. bsg) don't have any guarantee that the queue is and would stay valid while it's holding a reference. With delay added in blk_queue_bio() before queue_lock is grabbed, the following oops can be easily triggered when a device is removed with in-flight IOs. sd 0:0:1:0: [sdb] Stopping disk ata1.01: disabled general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU 2 Modules linked in: Pid: 648, comm: test_rawio Not tainted 3.1.0-rc3-work+ #56 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8137d651>] [<ffffffff8137d651>] elv_rqhash_find+0x61/0x100 ...

Similar problem exists for blk-throtl. On queue cleanup, blk-throtl is shutdown whether it has requests in it or not. Depending on timing, it either oopses or throttled bios are lost putting tasks which are waiting for bio completion into eternal D state. The way it should work is having the usual clear distinction between shutdown and release. Shutdown drains all currently pending requests, marks the queue dead, and performs partial teardown of the now unnecessary part of the queue. Even after shutdown is complete, reference holders are still allowed to issue requests to the queue although they will be immmediately failed. The rest of teardown happens on release. This patch makes the following changes to make blk_queue_cleanup() behave as proper shutdown. * QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD is now set while holding both q->exit_mutex and queue_lock. * Unsynchronized DEAD check in generic_make_request_checks() removed. This couldn't make any meaningful difference as the queue could die after the check. * blk_drain_queue() updated such that it can drain all requests and is now called during cleanup. * blk_throtl updated such that it checks DEAD on grabbing queue_lock, drains all throttled bios during cleanup and free td when queue is released.

2011-10-19block: reorganize throtl_get_tg() and blk_throtl_bio()Tejun Heo
blk_throtl_bio() and throtl_get_tg() have rather unusual interface. * throtl_get_tg() returns pointer to a valid tg or ERR_PTR(-ENODEV), and drops queue_lock in the latter case. Different locking context depending on return value is error-prone and DEAD state is scheduled to be protected by queue_lock anyway. Move DEAD check inside queue_lock and return valid tg or NULL. * blk_throtl_bio() indicates return status both with its return value and in/out param **@bio. The former is used to indicate whether queue is found to be dead during throtl processing. The latter whether the bio is throttled. There's no point in returning DEAD check result from blk_throtl_bio(). The queue can die after blk_throtl_bio() is finished but before make_request_fn() grabs queue lock. Make it take *@bio instead and return boolean result indicating whether the request is throttled or not. This patch doesn't cause any visible functional difference.

2011-10-19block: drop unnecessary blk_get/put_queue() in scsi_cmd_ioctl() and blk_get_tg()Tejun Heo
blk_get/put_queue() in scsi_cmd_ioctl() and throtl_get_tg() are completely bogus. The caller must have a reference to the queue on entry and taking an extra reference doesn't change anything. For scsi_cmd_ioctl(), the only effect is that it ends up checking QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD on entry; however, this is bogus as queue can die right after blk_get_queue(). Dead queue should be and is handled in request issue path (it's somewhat broken now but that's a separate problem and doesn't affect this one much). throtl_get_tg() incorrectly assumes that q is rcu freed. Also, it doesn't check return value of blk_get_queue(). If the queue is already dead, it ends up doing an extra put. Drop them.
