5904916689 block: blk-flush: Add support for Barrier flag
A barrier request is used to control ordering of write requests without
clearing the device's cache. LLD support for barrier is optional. If LLD
doesn't support barrier, flush will be issued instead to insure logical
correctness.
To maintain this fallback flush s/w path and flags are appended.
This patch implements the necessary requests marking in order to support
the barrier feature in the block layer.

This patch implements two major changes required for the barrier support.
(1) A new flush execution-policy is added to support "ordered" requests
    and a fallback , in case barrier is not supported by LLD.
(2) If there is a flush pending in the flush-queue, the received barrier
    is ignored, in order not to miss a demand for an actual flush.

ca369d51b3 block/sd: Fix device-imposed transfer length limits
Commit 4f258a4634 ("sd: Fix maximum I/O size for BLOCK_PC requests")
had the unfortunate side-effect of removing an implicit clamp to
BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS for REQ_TYPE_FS requests in the block layer
code. This caused problems for some SMR drives.

Debugging this issue revealed a few problems with the existing
infrastructure since the block layer didn't know how to deal with
device-imposed limits, only limits set by the I/O controller.

 - Introduce a new queue limit, max_dev_sectors, which is used by the
   ULD to signal the maximum sectors for a REQ_TYPE_FS request.

 - Ensure that max_dev_sectors is correctly stacked and taken into
   account when overriding max_sectors through sysfs.

 - Rework sd_read_block_limits() so it saves the max_xfer and opt_xfer
   values for later processing.

 - In sd_revalidate() set the queue's max_dev_sectors based on the
   MAXIMUM TRANSFER LENGTH value in the Block Limits VPD. If this value
   is not reported, fall back to a cap based on the CDB TRANSFER LENGTH
   field size.

 - In sd_revalidate(), use OPTIMAL TRANSFER LENGTH from the Block Limits
   VPD--if reported and sane--to signal the preferred device transfer
   size for FS requests. Otherwise use BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS.

 - blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() is no longer used and can be removed.

 "This first core part of the block IO changes contains:

   - Cleanup of the bio IO error signaling from Christoph.  We used to

     store the error in the bio itself.

   - Improvement of the above from myself, by shrinking the bio size
     down again to fit in two cachelines on x86-64.

   - Revert of the max_hw_sectors cap removal from a revision again,
     from Jeff Moyer.  This caused performance regressions in various
     tests.  Reinstate the limit, bump it to a more reasonable size
     instead.

   - Make /sys/block/<dev>/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
     Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
     when deleting files.  Enable the admin to configure the size down.
     We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX
     sectors.

   - Improvement of the SGP gaps logic from Keith Busch.

   - Enable the block core to handle arbitrarily sized bios, which
     enables a nice simplification of bio_add_page() (which is an IO hot
     path).  From Kent.

   - Improvements to the partition io stats accounting, making it
     faster.  From Ming Lei.

   - Also from Ming Lei, a basic fixup for overflow of the sysfs pending
     file in blk-mq, as well as a fix for a blk-mq timeout race
     condition.

   - Ming Lin has been carrying Kents above mentioned patches forward

03100aada9 block: Replace SG_GAPS with new queue limits mask
The SG_GAPS queue flag caused checks for bio vector alignment against
PAGE_SIZE, but the device may have different constraints. This patch
adds a queue limits so a driver with such constraints can set to allow
requests that would have been unnecessarily split. The new gaps check
takes the request_queue as a parameter to simplify the logic around
invoking this function.

This new limit makes the queue flag redundant, so removing it and
all usage. Device-mappers will inherit the correct settings through
blk_stack_limits().

30e2bc08b2 Revert "block: remove artifical max_hw_sectors cap"
This reverts commit 34b48db66e.
That commit caused performance regressions for streaming I/O
workloads on a number of different storage devices, from
SATA disks to external RAID arrays.  It also managed to
trip up some buggy firmware in at least one drive, causing
data corruption.

The next patch will bump the default max_sectors_kb value to
1280, which will accommodate a 10-data-disk stripe write
with chunk size 128k.  In the testing I've done using iozone,
fio, and aio-stress, a value of 1280 does not show a big
performance difference from 512.  This will hopefully still
help the software RAID setup that Christoph saw the original
performance gains with while still not regressing other
storage configurations.

4f258a4634 sd: Fix maximum I/O size for BLOCK_PC requests
Commit bcdb247c6b ("sd: Limit transfer length") clamped the maximum
size of an I/O request to the MAXIMUM TRANSFER LENGTH field in the BLOCK
LIMITS VPD. This had the unfortunate effect of also limiting the maximum
size of non-filesystem requests sent to the device through sg/bsg.

Avoid using blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() and set the max_sectors queue
limit directly.

Also update the comment in blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() to clarify that
max_hw_sectors defines the limit for the I/O controller only.

Lots of devices support huge discard sizes these days. Depending
on how the device handles them internally, huge discards can

We have a sysfs file, discard_max_bytes, that advertises the max
hardware supported discard size. Make this writeable, and split
the settings into a soft and hard limit. This can be set from
'discard_granularity' and up to the hardware limit.

e9637415a9 block: fix blk_stack_limits() regression due to lcm() change
Linux 3.19 commit 69c953c ("lib/lcm.c: lcm(n,0)=lcm(0,n) is 0, not n")
caused blk_stack_limits() to not properly stack queue_limits for stacked
devices (e.g. DM).

Fix this regression by establishing lcm_not_zero() and switching
blk_stack_limits() over to using it.

DM uses blk_set_stacking_limits() to establish the initial top-level
queue_limits that are then built up based on underlying devices' limits
using blk_stack_limits().  In the case of optimal_io_size (io_opt)
blk_set_stacking_limits() establishes a default value of 0.  With commit
69c953c, lcm(0, n) is no longer n, which compromises proper stacking of
the underlying devices' io_opt.

Test:
$ modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=10 num_tgts=1 opt_blks=1536
$ cat /sys/block/sde/queue/optimal_io_size
786432
$ dmsetup create node --table "0 100 linear /dev/sde 0"

Before this fix:
$ cat /sys/block/dm-5/queue/optimal_io_size
0

b8839b8c55 block: fix alignment_offset math that assumes io_min is a power-of-2
The math in both blk_stack_limits() and queue_limit_alignment_offset()
assume that a block device's io_min (aka minimum_io_size) is always a
power-of-2.  Fix the math such that it works for non-power-of-2 io_min.

This issue (of alignment_offset != 0) became apparent when testing
dm-thinp with a thinp blocksize that matches a RAID6 stripesize of
1280K.  Commit fdfb4c8c1 ("dm thin: set minimum_io_size to pool's data

the dm-thin-pool's io_min possibly being a non-power-of-2.

0910c0bdf7 Merge branch 'for-3.13/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block IO core updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the pull request for the core changes in the block layer for
  3.13.  It contains:

   - The new blk-mq request interface.

     This is a new and more scalable queueing model that marries the
     best part of the request based interface we currently have (which
     is fully featured, but scales poorly) and the bio based "interface"
     which the new drivers for high IOPS devices end up using because
     it's much faster than the request based one.

     The bio interface has no block layer support, since it taps into
     the stack much earlier.  This means that drivers end up having to
     implement a lot of functionality on their own, like tagging,
     timeout handling, requeue, etc.  The blk-mq interface provides all
     these.  Some drivers even provide a switch to select bio or rq and
     has code to handle both, since things like merging only works in
     the rq model and hence is faster for some workloads.  This is a
     huge mess.  Conversion of these drivers nets us a substantial code
     reduction.  Initial results on converting SCSI to this model even
     shows an 8x improvement on single queue devices.  So while the
     model was intended to work on the newer multiqueue devices, it has
     substantial improvements for "classic" hardware as well.  This code
     has gone through extensive testing and development, it's now ready
     to go.  A pull request is coming to convert virtio-blk to this
     model will be will be coming as well, with more drivers scheduled
     for 3.14 conversion.

   - Two blktrace fixes from Jan and Chen Gang.

   - A plug merge fix from Alireza Haghdoost.

   - Conversion of __get_cpu_var() from Christoph Lameter.

   - Fix for sector_div() with 64-bit divider from Geert Uytterhoeven.

   - A fix for a race between request completion and the timeout
     handling from Jeff Moyer.  This is what caused the merge conflict
     with blk-mq/core, in case you are looking at that.

   - A dm stacking fix from Mike Snitzer.

   - A code consolidation fix and duplicated code removal from Kent
     Overstreet.

   - A handful of block bug fixes from Mikulas Patocka, fixing a loop
     crash and memory corruption on blk cg.

   - Elevator switch bug fix from Tomoki Sekiyama.

  A heads-up that I had to rebase this branch.  Initially the immutable
  bio_vecs had been queued up for inclusion, but a week later, it became
  clear that it wasn't fully cooked yet.  So the decision was made to
  pull this out and postpone it until 3.14.  It was a straight forward
  rebase, just pruning out the immutable series and the later fixes of
  problems with it.  The rest of the patches applied directly and no
  further changes were made"

fe86cdcef7 block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking drivers
blk_set_stacking_limits is intended to allow stacking drivers to build
up the limits of the stacked device based on the underlying devices'
limits.  But defaulting 'max_sectors' to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS (1024)
doesn't allow the stacking driver to inherit a max_sectors larger than
1024 -- due to blk_stack_limits' use of min_not_zero.

It is now clear that this artificial limit is getting in the way so
change blk_set_stacking_limits's max_sectors to UINT_MAX (which allows
stacking drivers like dm-multipath to inherit 'max_sectors' from the
underlying paths).

b1bd055d39 block: Introduce blk_set_stacking_limits function
Stacking driver queue limits are typically bounded exclusively by the
capabilities of the low level devices, not by the stacking driver
itself.

This patch introduces blk_set_stacking_limits() which has more liberal
metrics than the default queue limits function. This allows us to
inherit topology parameters from bottom devices without manually
tweaking the default limits in each driver prior to calling the stacking
function.

Since there is now a clear distinction between stacking and low-level
devices, blk_set_default_limits() has been modified to carry the more
conservative values that we used to manually set in
blk_queue_make_request().

a934a00a69 block: Fix discard topology stacking and reporting
In some cases we would end up stacking discard_zeroes_data incorrectly.
Fix this by enabling the feature by default for stacking drivers and
clearing it for low-level drivers. Incorporating a device that does not
support dzd will then cause the feature to be disabled in the stacking
driver.

Also ensure that the maximum discard value does not overflow when
exported in sysfs and return 0 in the alignment and dzd fields for
devices that don't support discard.

c94a96ac93 block: Initialize ->queue_lock to internal lock at queue allocation time
There does not seem to be a clear convention whether q->queue_lock is
initialized or not when blk_cleanup_queue() is called. In the past it
was not necessary but now blk_throtl_exit() takes up queue lock by
default and needs queue lock to be available.

In fact elevator_exit() code also has similar requirement just that it
is less stringent in the sense that elevator_exit() is called only if
elevator is initialized.

Two problems have been noticed because of ambiguity about spin lock
status.

      - If a driver calls blk_alloc_queue() and then soon calls
        blk_cleanup_queue() almost immediately, (because some other
	driver structure allocation failed or some other error happened)
	then blk_throtl_exit() will run into issues as queue lock is not
	initialized. Loop driver ran into this issue recently and I
	noticed error paths in md driver too. Similar error paths should
	exist in other drivers too.

      - If some driver provided external spin lock and zapped the lock
        before blk_cleanup_queue(), then it can lead to issues.

So this patch initializes the default queue lock at queue allocation time.

block throttling code is one of the users of queue lock and it is
initialized at the queue allocation time, so it makes sense to
initialize ->queue_lock also to internal lock. A driver can overide that
lock later. This will take care of the issue where a driver does not have
to worry about initializing the queue lock to default before calling
blk_cleanup_queue()

72d4cd9f38 block: max hardware sectors limit wrapper
Implement blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() and make
blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() a wrapper around it.

DM needs this to avoid setting queue_limits' max_hw_sectors and
max_sectors directly.  dm_set_device_limits() now leverages
blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() logic to establish the appropriate
max_hw_sectors minimum (PAGE_SIZE).  Fixes issue where DM was
incorrectly setting max_sectors rather than max_hw_sectors (which
caused dm_merge_bvec()'s max_hw_sectors check to be ineffective).

e692cb668f block: Deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use queue_limits instead
When stacking devices, a request_queue is not always available. This
forced us to have a no_cluster flag in the queue_limits that could be
used as a carrier until the request_queue had been set up for a
metadevice.

There were several problems with that approach. First of all it was up
to the stacking device to remember to set queue flag after stacking had
completed. Also, the queue flag and the queue limits had to be kept in
sync at all times. We got that wrong, which could lead to us issuing
commands that went beyond the max scatterlist limit set by the driver.

The proper fix is to avoid having two flags for tracking the same thing.
We deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use the queue limit directly in the
block layer merging functions. The queue_limit 'no_cluster' is turned
into 'cluster' to avoid double negatives and to ease stacking.
Clustering defaults to being enabled as before. The queue flag logic is
removed from the stacking function, and explicitly setting the cluster
flag is no longer necessary in DM and MD.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
