* partitions/efi.c: replace useless kzalloc's by kmalloc'sPhilippe De Muyter2013-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | In alloc_read_gpt_entries and alloc_read_gpt_header, the kzalloc'ated zones are either totally overwritten by the following read_lba call, or freed. As kmalloc is cheaper than kzalloc, use kmalloc.

* blkcg: fix "scheduling while atomic" in blk_queue_bypass_startJun'ichi Nomura2013-04-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 749fefe677 in v3.7 ("block: lift the initial queue bypass mode on blk_register_queue() instead of blk_init_allocated_queue()"), the following warning appears when multipath is used with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. This patch moves blk_queue_bypass_start() before radix_tree_preload() to avoid the sleeping call while preemption is disabled.

It's only three patches (the first one was committed to workqueue tree) but the merge strategy is a bit involved due to the dependencies. * Because the conversion needs features from wq/for-3.10, block/for-3.10/core is based on rc3, and wq/for-3.10 has conflicts with rc3, I pulled mainline (rc5) into wq/for-3.10 to prevent those workqueue conflicts from flaring up in block tree. * Resolving the issue that Jan and Dave raised about debugging requires arch-wide changes. The patchset is being worked on[2] but it'll have to go through -mm after these changes show up in -next, and not included in this pull request. The three commits are located in the following git branch. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git writeback-workqueue Pulling it into block/for-3.10/core produces a conflict in drivers/md/raid5.c between the following two commits. e3620a3ad5 ("MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available") 2f6db2a707 ("raid5: use bio_reset()") The conflict is trivial - one removes an "if ()" conditional while the other removes "rbi->bi_next = NULL" right above it. We just need to remove both. The merged branch is available at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git block-test-merge so that you can use it for verification. The test merge commit has proper merge description. While these changes are a bit of pain to route, they make code simpler and even have, while minute, measureable performance gain[3] even on a workload which isn't particularly favorable to showing the benefits of this conversion. ---- Fixed up the conflict.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Any partitions added by user space to the loop device were being left in place after detaching the loop device.

Note that req_bio_endio() now always calls bio_advance() - which means it always loops over the biovec, not just on partial completions. Don't expect it to affect performance, but worth noting.

| * cfq: fix lock imbalance with failed allocationsGlauber Costa2013-02-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While stress-running very-small container scenarios with the Kernel Memory Controller, I've run into a lockdep-detected lock imbalance in cfq-iosched.c. I'll apologize beforehand for not posting a backlog: I didn't anticipate it would be so hard to reproduce, so I didn't save my serial output and went directly on debugging. Turns out that it did not happen again in more than 20 runs, making it a quite rare pattern. But here is my analysis: When we are in very low-memory situations, we will arrive at cfq_find_alloc_queue and may not find a queue, having to resort to the oom queue, in an rcu-locked condition: if (!cfqq || cfqq == &cfqd->oom_cfqq) [ ... ] Next, we will release the rcu lock, and try to allocate a queue, retrying if we succeed: rcu_read_unlock(); spin_unlock_irq(cfqd->queue->queue_lock); new_cfqq = kmem_cache_alloc_node(cfq_pool, gfp_mask | __GFP_ZERO, cfqd->queue->node); spin_lock_irq(cfqd->queue->queue_lock); if (new_cfqq) goto retry; We are unlocked at this point, but it should be fine, since we will reacquire the rcu_read_lock when we retry. Except of course, that we may not retry: the allocation may very well fail and we'll keep on going through the flow: The next branch is: if (cfqq) { [ ... ] } else cfqq = &cfqd->oom_cfqq; And right before exiting, we'll issue rcu_read_unlock(). Being already unlocked, this is the likely source of our imbalance. Since cfqq is either already NULL or made NULL in the first statement of the outter branch, the only viable alternative here seems to be to return the oom queue right away in case of allocation failure. Please review the following patch and apply if you agree with my analysis.

| * block: account iowait time when waiting for completion of IO requestVladimir Davydov2013-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using wait_for_completion() for waiting for a IO request to be executed results in wrong iowait time accounting. For example, a system having the only task doing write() and fdatasync() on a block device can be reported being idle instead of iowaiting as it should because blkdev_issue_flush() calls wait_for_completion() which in turn calls schedule() that does not increment the iowait proc counter and thus does not turn on iowait time accounting. The patch makes block layer use wait_for_completion_io() instead of wait_for_completion() where appropriate to account iowait time correctly.

Only dm was explicitly triggering the TP on IO completion. This makes block_bio_complete TP useless for tracers which want to know about bios, and all other bio based drivers skip generating blktrace completion events. This patch makes all bio completions via bio_endio() generate block_bio_complete TP. * Explicit trace_block_bio_complete() invocation removed from dm and the trace point is unexported. * @rq dropped from trace_block_bio_complete(). bios may fly around w/o queue associated. Verifying and accessing the assocaited queue belongs to TP probes. * blktrace now gets both request and bio completions. Make it ignore bio completions if request completion path is happening. This makes all bio based drivers generate blktrace completion events properly and makes the block_bio_complete TP actually useful. v2: With this change, block_bio_complete TP could be invoked on sg commands which have bio's with %NULL bi_bdev. Update TP assignment code to check whether bio->bi_bdev is %NULL before dereferencing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To support hierarchical stats, it's necessary to remember stats from dead children. Add cfqg->dead_stats and make a dying cfqg transfer its stats to the parent's dead-stats. The transfer happens form ->pd_offline_fn() and it is possible that there are some residual IOs completing afterwards. Currently, we lose these stats. Given that cgroup removal isn't a very high frequency operation and the amount of residual IOs on offline are likely to be nil or small, this shouldn't be a big deal and the complexity needed to handle residual IOs - another callback and rather elaborate synchronization to reach and lock the matching q - doesn't seem justified.

The only thing which keeps the behavior flat is cfqg_flat_parent() which makes vfraction calculation consider all non-root cfqgs children of the root cfqg. Replace it with cfqg_parent() which returns the real parent. This enables full blkcg hierarchy support for cfq-iosched. For example, consider the following hierarchy. root / \ A:500 B:250 / \ AA:500 AB:1000 For simplicity, let's say all the leaf nodes have active tasks and are on service tree. For each leaf node, vfraction would be AA: (500 / 1500) * (500 / 750) =~ 0.2222 AB: (1000 / 1500) * (500 / 750) =~ 0.4444 B: (250 / 750) =~ 0.3333 and vdisktime will be distributed accordingly. For more detail, please refer to Documentation/block/cfq-iosched.txt. v2: cfq-iosched.txt updated to describe group scheduling as suggested by Vivek. v3: blkio-controller.txt updated.

| | * cfq-iosched: convert cfq_group_slice() to use cfqg->vfractionTejun Heo2013-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cfq_group_slice() calculates slice by taking a fraction of cfq_target_latency according to the ratio of cfqg->weight against service_tree->total_weight. This currently works only because all cfqgs are treated to be at the same level. To prepare for proper hierarchy support, convert cfq_group_slice() to base the calculation on cfqg->vfraction. As cfqg->vfraction is always a fraction of 1 and represents the fraction allocated to the cfqg with hierarchy considered, the slice can be simply calculated by multiplying cfqg->vfraction to cfq_target_latency (with fixed point shift factored in). As vfraction calculation currently treats all non-root cfqgs as children of the root cfqg, this patch doesn't introduce noticeable behavior difference.

| | * cfq-iosched: implement hierarchy-ready cfq_group charge scalingTejun Heo2013-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, cfqg charges are scaled directly according to cfqg->weight. Regardless of the number of active cfqgs or the amount of active weights, a given weight value always scales charge the same way. This works fine as long as all cfqgs are treated equally regardless of their positions in the hierarchy, which is what cfq currently implements. It can't work in hierarchical settings because the interpretation of a given weight value depends on where the weight is located in the hierarchy. This patch reimplements cfqg charge scaling so that it can be used to support hierarchy properly. The scheme is fairly simple and light-weight. * When a cfqg is added to the service tree, v(disktime)weight is calculated. It walks up the tree to root calculating the fraction it has in the hierarchy. At each level, the fraction can be calculated as cfqg->weight / parent->level_weight By compounding these, the global fraction of vdisktime the cfqg has claim to - vfraction - can be determined. * When the cfqg needs to be charged, the charge is scaled inversely proportionally to the vfraction. The new scaling scheme uses the same CFQ_SERVICE_SHIFT for fixed point representation as before; however, the smallest scaling factor is now 1 (ie. 1 << CFQ_SERVICE_SHIFT). This is different from before where 1 was for CFQ_WEIGHT_DEFAULT and higher weight would result in smaller scaling factor. While this shifts the global scale of vdisktime a bit, it doesn't change the relative relationships among cfqgs and the scheduling result isn't different. cfq_group_notify_queue_add uses fixed CFQ_IDLE_DELAY when appending new cfqg to the service tree. The specific value of CFQ_IDLE_DELAY didn't have any relevance to vdisktime before and is unlikely to cause any visible behavior difference now especially as the scale shift isn't that large. As the new scheme now makes proper distinction between cfqg->weight and ->leaf_weight, reverse the weight aliasing for root cfqgs. For root, both weights are now mapped to ->leaf_weight instead of the other way around. Because we're still using cfqg_flat_parent(), this patch shouldn't change the scheduling behavior in any noticeable way. v2: Beefed up comments on vfraction as requested by Vivek.

The level covers itself (cfqg->leaf_weight) and immediate children. The two values are updated when a cfqg enters and leaves the group service tree. Unless the hierarchy is very deep, the added overhead should be negligible. Currently, the parent is determined using cfqg_flat_parent() which makes the root cfqg the parent of all other cfqgs. This is to make the transition to hierarchy-aware scheduling gradual. Scheduling logic will be converted to use cfqg->children_weight without actually changing the behavior. When everything is ready, blkcg_weight_parent() will be replaced with proper parent function. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior chagne. v2: s/cfqg->level_weight/cfqg->children_weight/ as per Vivek. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com>

This makes tasks in a blkg to compete against both tasks in the sibling blkgs and the tasks of child blkgs. We're gonna use the existing weight as the group weight which decides the blkg's weight against its siblings. This patch introduces a new weight - leaf_weight - which decides the weight of a blkg against the child blkgs. It's named leaf_weight because another way to look at it is that each internal blkg nodes have a hidden child leaf node which contains all its tasks and leaf_weight is the weight of the leaf node and handled the same as the weight of the child blkgs. This patch only adds leaf_weight fields and exposes it to userland. The new weight isn't actually used anywhere yet. Note that cfq-iosched currently offcially supports only single level hierarchy and root blkgs compete with the first level blkgs - ie. root weight is basically being used as leaf_weight. For root blkgs, the two weights are kept in sync for backward compatibility. v2: cfqd->root_group->leaf_weight initialization was missing from cfq_init_queue() causing divide by zero when !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_SCHED.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently a child blkg (blkcg_gq) can be created even if its parent doesn't exist. ie. Given a blkg, it's not guaranteed that its ancestors will exist. This makes it difficult to implement proper hierarchy support for blkcg policies. Always create blkgs recursively and make a child blkg hold a reference to its parent. blkg->parent is added so that finding the parent is easy. blkcg_parent() is also added in the process. This change can be visible to userland. e.g. while issuing IO in a nested cgroup didn't affect the ancestors at all, now it will initialize all ancestor blkgs and zero stats for the request_queue will always appear on them. While this is userland visible, this shouldn't cause any functional difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com>

I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
