| * block: implement drain buffersJames Bottomley2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These DMA drain buffer implementations in drivers are pretty horrible to do in terms of manipulating the scatterlist. Plus they're being done at least in drivers/ide and drivers/ata, so we now have code duplication. The one use case for this, as I understand it is AHCI controllers doing PIO mode to mmc devices but translating this to DMA at the controller level. So, what about adding a callback to the block layer that permits the adding of the drain buffer for the problem devices. The idea is that you'd do this in slave_configure after you find one of these devices. The beauty of doing it in the block layer is that it quietly adds the drain buffer to the end of the sg list, so it automatically gets mapped (and unmapped) without anything unusual having to be done to the scatterlist in driver/scsi or drivers/ata and without any alteration to the transfer length.

| * blktrace: Add blktrace ioctls to SCSI generic devicesChristof Schmitt2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the SCSI layer uses the request queues from the block layer, blktrace can also be used to trace the requests to all SCSI devices (like SCSI tape drives), not only disks. The only missing part is the ioctl interface to start and stop tracing. This patch adds the SETUP, START, STOP and TEARDOWN ioctls from blktrace to the sg device files. With this change, blktrace can be used for SCSI devices like for disks, e.g.: blktrace -d /dev/sg1 -o - | blkparse -i - Signed-off-by: Christof Schmitt <christof.schmitt@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

| * | blk_end_request: cleanup of request completion (take 4)Kiyoshi Ueda2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch merges complete_request() into end_that_request_last() for cleanup. complete_request() was introduced by earlier part of this patch-set, not to break the existing users of end_that_request_last(). Since all users are converted to blk_end_request interfaces and end_that_request_last() is no longer exported, the code can be merged to end_that_request_last().

| * | blk_end_request: add bidi completion interface (take 4)Kiyoshi Ueda2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_bidi_request(), which completes a bidi request. Bidi request must be completed as a whole, both rq and rq->next_rq at once. So the interface has 2 arguments for completion size. As for ->end_io, only rq->end_io is called (rq->next_rq->end_io is not called). So if special completion handling is needed, the handler must be set to rq->end_io. And the handler must take care of freeing next_rq too, since the interface doesn't care of it if rq->end_io is not NULL.

| * | blk_end_request: add callback feature (take 4)Kiyoshi Ueda2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_request_callback(), which has driver callback feature. Drivers may need to do special works between end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last(). For such drivers, blk_end_request_callback() allows it to pass a callback function which is called between end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last(). This interface is only for fallback of other blk_end_request interfaces. Drivers should avoid their tricky behaviors and use other interfaces as much as possible. Currently, only one driver, ide-cd, needs this interface. So this interface should/will be removed, after the driver removes such tricky behaviors. o ide-cd (cdrom_newpc_intr()) In PIO mode, cdrom_newpc_intr() needs to defer end_that_request_last() until the device clears DRQ_STAT and raises an interrupt after end_that_request_first(). So end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last() are called separately in cdrom_newpc_intr(). This means blk_end_request_callback() has to return without completing request even if no leftover in the request. To satisfy the requirement, callback function has return value so that drivers can tell blk_end_request_callback() to return without completing request.

| * | blk_end_request: changing block layer core (take 4)Kiyoshi Ueda2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts core parts of block layer to use blk_end_request interfaces. Related 'uptodate' arguments are converted to 'error'. 'dequeue' argument was originally introduced for end_dequeued_request(), where no attempt should be made to dequeue the request as it's already dequeued. However, it's not necessary as it can be checked with list_empty(&rq->queuelist). (Dequeued request has empty list and queued request doesn't.) And it has been done in blk_end_request interfaces. As a result of this patch, end_queued_request() and end_dequeued_request() become identical. A future patch will merge and rename them and change users of those functions.

The meanings of values are below and the value is used when bio is completed. 0 : success < 0 : error Some device drivers call some generic functions below between end_that_request_{first/chunk} and end_that_request_last(). o add_disk_randomness() o blk_queue_end_tag() o blkdev_dequeue_request() These are called in the blk_end_request interfaces as a part of generic request completion. So all device drivers become to call above functions. To decide whether to call blkdev_dequeue_request(), blk_end_request uses list_empty(&rq->queuelist) (blk_queued_rq() macro is added for it). So drivers must re-initialize it using list_init() or so before calling blk_end_request if drivers use it for its specific purpose. (Currently, there is no driver which completes request without re-initializing the queuelist after used it. So rq->queuelist can be used for the purpose above.) "Normal" drivers can be converted to use blk_end_request() in a standard way shown below. a) end_that_request_{chunk/first} spin_lock_irqsave() (add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request()) end_that_request_last() spin_unlock_irqrestore() => blk_end_request() b) spin_lock_irqsave() end_that_request_{chunk/first} (add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request()) end_that_request_last() spin_unlock_irqrestore() => spin_lock_irqsave() __blk_end_request() spin_unlock_irqsave() c) spin_lock_irqsave() (add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request()) end_that_request_last() spin_unlock_irqrestore() => blk_end_request() or spin_lock_irqsave() __blk_end_request() spin_unlock_irqrestore() Signed-off-by: Kiyoshi Ueda <k-ueda@ct.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Jun'ichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* | cfq-iosched: relax IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE restrictionsJens Axboe2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently you must be root to set idle io prio class on a process. This is due to the fact that the idle class is implemented as a true idle class, meaning that it will not make progress if someone else is requesting disk access. Unfortunately this means that it opens DOS opportunities by locking down file system resources, hence it is root only at the moment. This patch relaxes the idle class a little, by removing the truly idle part (which entals a grace period with associated timer). The modifications make the idle class as close to zero impact as can be done while still guarenteeing progress. This means we can relax the root only criteria as well.

* | block: cfq: make the io contect sharing locklessJens Axboe2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The io context sharing introduced a per-ioc spinlock, that would protect the cfq io context lookup. That is a regression from the original, since we never needed any locking there because the ioc/cic were process private. The cic lookup is changed from an rbtree construct to a radix tree, which we can then use RCU to make the reader side lockless. That is the performance critical path, modifying the radix tree is only done on process creation (when that process first does IO, actually) and on process exit (if that process has done IO). As it so happens, radix trees are also much faster for this type of lookup where the key is a pointer. It's a very sparse tree. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this is to allow stacked alignment settings, with the ultimate queue alignment being set to the largest alignment requirement in the stack.

* blktrace: Make sure BLKTRACETEARDOWN does the full cleanup.Aneesh Kumar K.V2007-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | if blktrace program segfault it will not be able to call BLKTRACETEARDOWN. Now if we run the blktrace again that would result in a failure to create the block/<device> debugfs directory.This will result in blk_remove_root() to be called which will set blk_tree_root to NULL. But the debugfs block dir still exist because it contain subdirectory. Now if we try to fix it using BLKTRACETEARDOWN it won't work because blk_tree_root is NULL. Fix the same. Tested as below root@qemu-image:/home/kvaneesh/blktrace# ./blktrace -d /dev/hdc Segmentation fault root@qemu-image:/home/kvaneesh/blktrace# ./blktrace -d /dev/hdc BLKTRACESETUP: No such file or directory Failed to start trace on /dev/hdc root@qemu-image:/home/kvaneesh/blktrace# ./blktrace -k /dev/hdc root@qemu-image:/home/kvaneesh/blktrace# ./blktrace -d /dev/hdc Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* block: fix requeue handling in blk_queue_invalidate_tags()Jens Axboe2007-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Credit goes to juergen.kadidlo@exasol.com for diagnosing this issue and supplying the initial patch. blk_queue_invalidate_tags() must use the proper requeueing paths instead of open coding the re-add of the request, otherwise we bug out in rq accounting. Just switch to using blk_requeue_request(), that takes care of end-tag handling as well and also adds the blktrace REQUEUE notify event that is also appropriate here.

* cfq_idle_class_timer: add paranoid checks for jiffies overflowOleg Nesterov2007-11-07
| | | | | | | | | In theory, if the queue was idle long enough, cfq_idle_class_timer may have a false (and very long) timeout because jiffies can wrap into the past wrt ->last_end_request. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After the fresh boot: ionice -c3 -p $$ echo cfq >> /sys/block/XXX/queue/scheduler dd if=/dev/XXX of=/dev/null bs=512 count=1 Now dd hangs in D state and the queue is completely stalled for approximately INITIAL_JIFFIES + CFQ_IDLE_GRACE jiffies. This is because cfq_init_queue() forgets to initialize cfq_data->last_end_request.

| * Deadline iosched: Fix batching fairnessAaron Carroll2007-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After switching data directions, deadline always starts the next batch from the lowest-sector request. This gives excessive deadline expiries and large latency and throughput disparity between high- and low-sector requests; an order of magnitude in some tests. This patch changes the batching behaviour so new batches start from the request whose expiry is earliest.

| * Deadline iosched: Reset batch for ordered requestsAaron Carroll2007-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The deadline I/O scheduler does not reset the batch count when starting a new batch at a higher-sectored request. This means the second and subsequent batch in the same data direction will never exceed a single request in size whenever higher-sectored requests are pending. This patch gives new batches in the same data direction as old ones their full quota of requests by resetting the batch count.

* | [SG] Get rid of __sg_mark_end()Jens Axboe2007-11-02
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | sg_mark_end() overwrites the page_link information, but all users want __sg_mark_end() behaviour where we just set the end bit. That is the most natural way to use the sg list, since you'll fill it in and then mark the end point. So change sg_mark_end() to only set the termination bit. Add a sg_magic debug check as well, and clear a chain pointer if it is set. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
