Marco CrivellariandJens Axboe 98236343bb block: Add WQ_PERCPU to alloc_workqueue users
This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with
the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:

   commit 128ea9f6cc ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
   commit 930c2ea566 ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")

The refactoring is going to alter the default behavior of
alloc_workqueue() to be unbound by default.

With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU. For more details see the Link tag below.

In order to keep alloc_workqueue() behavior identical, explicitly request
WQ_PERCPU.

Christoph HellwigandJens Axboe bb8e2019ad blk-crypto: handle the fallback above the block layer
Add a blk_crypto_submit_bio helper that either submits the bio when
it is not encrypted or inline encryption is provided, but otherwise
handles the encryption before going down into the low-level driver.
This reduces the risk from bio reordering and keeps memory allocation
as high up in the stack as possible.

Note that if the submitter knows that inline enctryption is known to
be supported by the underyling driver, it can still use plain
submit_bio.

Christoph HellwigandJens Axboe aefc2a1fa2 blk-crypto: submit the encrypted bio in blk_crypto_fallback_bio_prep
Restructure blk_crypto_fallback_bio_prep so that it always submits the
encrypted bio instead of passing it back to the caller, which allows
to simplify the calling conventions for blk_crypto_fallback_bio_prep and
blk_crypto_bio_prep so that they never have to return a bio, and can
use a true return value to indicate that the caller should submit the
bio, and false that the blk-crypto code consumed it.

The submission is handled by the on-stack bio list in the current
task_struct by the block layer and does not cause additional stack
usage or major overhead.  It also prepares for the following optimization
and fixes for the blk-crypto fallback write path.

     - Add support for a lockless bitmap.

       A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
       lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
       bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
       to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
       writes.

       By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
       case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
       need to do a full disk resync/recovery.

 - Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
   than struct block_device.

 - Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
   configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
   includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
   cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.

   The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
   `kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
   to support the same use as the removed logic.

 - floppy arch cleanups

 - Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands

 - Improve DMA interation for integrity requests

 - Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment

Jens Axboe ab073abf6d block: fix EOD return for device with nr_sectors == 0
A recent commit skipped dumping the usual "attempt to access beyond end
of device" message if the device size is 0 sectors, as that's a common
pattern for devices that have been hot removed. But while it stopped
that message, it also prevented returning -EIO for that condition.
Reinstate the -EIO return, while retaining the quiet operation for
triggering EOD for a device with 0 sectors.

Yu KuaiandJens Axboe b2f5974079 block: fix ordering of recursive split IO
Currently, split bio will be chained to original bio, and original bio
will be resubmitted to the tail of current->bio_list, waiting for
split bio to be issued. However, if split bio get split again, the IO
order will be messed up. This problem, on the one hand, will cause
performance degradation, especially for mdraid with large IO size; on
the other hand, will cause write errors for zoned block devices[1].

For example, in raid456 IO will first be split by max_sector from
md_submit_bio(), and then later be split again by chunksize for internal
handling:

For example, assume max_sectors is 1M, and chunksize is 512k

1) issue a 2M IO:

bio issuing: 0+2M
current->bio_list: NULL

2) md_submit_bio() split by max_sector:

bio issuing: 0+1M
current->bio_list: 1M+1M

3) chunk_aligned_read() split by chunksize:

bio issuing: 0+512k
current->bio_list: 1M+1M -> 512k+512k

4) after first bio issued, __submit_bio_noacct() will contuine issuing
next bio:

bio issuing: 1M+1M
current->bio_list: 512k+512k
bio issued: 0+512k

5) chunk_aligned_read() split by chunksize:

bio issuing: 1M+512k
current->bio_list: 512k+512k -> 1536k+512k
bio issued: 0+512k

6) no split afterwards, finally the issue order is:

0+512k -> 1M+512k -> 512k+512k -> 1536k+512k

This behaviour will cause large IO read on raid456 endup to be small
discontinuous IO in underlying disks. Fix this problem by placing split
bio to the head of current->bio_list.

BTW, this looks like a long term problem from day one, and large
sequential IO read is pretty common case like video playing.

And even with this patch, in this test case IO is merged to at most 128k
is due to block layer plug limit BLK_PLUG_FLUSH_SIZE, increase such
limit can get even better performance. However, we'll figure out how to do
this properly later.

Having multiple kernel versions released with a known risc of kernel
deadlock during reclaim writeback should IMHO be addressed and
backported to -stable with the highest priority.

In order to have these lockdep splats show up earlier,
preferrably during system initialization, prime the
struct request_queue::io_lockdep_map as GFP_KERNEL reclaim-
tainted. This will instead lead to lockdep splats looking similar
to [2], but without the need for reclaim + writeback
happening.

Nilay ShroffandJens Axboe 1bf70d08cc block: introduce a dedicated lock for protecting queue elevator updates
A queue's elevator can be updated either when modifying nr_hw_queues
or through the sysfs scheduler attribute. Currently, elevator switching/
updating is protected using q->sysfs_lock, but this has led to lockdep
splats[1] due to inconsistent lock ordering between q->sysfs_lock and
the freeze-lock in multiple block layer call sites.

As the scope of q->sysfs_lock is not well-defined, its (mis)use has
resulted in numerous lockdep warnings. To address this, introduce a new
q->elevator_lock, dedicated specifically for protecting elevator
switches/updates. And we'd now use this new q->elevator_lock instead of
q->sysfs_lock for protecting elevator switches/updates.

While at it, make elv_iosched_load_module() a static function, as it is
only called from elv_iosched_store(). Also, remove redundant parameters
from elv_iosched_load_module() function signature.

Nilay ShroffandJens Axboe fe66286086 block: get rid of request queue ->sysfs_dir_lock
The request queue uses ->sysfs_dir_lock for protecting the addition/
deletion of kobject entries under sysfs while we register/unregister
blk-mq. However kobject addition/deletion is already protected with
kernfs/sysfs internal synchronization primitives. So use of q->sysfs_
dir_lock seems redundant.

Moreover, q->sysfs_dir_lock is also used at few other callsites along
with q->sysfs_lock for protecting the addition/deletion of kojects.
One such example is when we register with sysfs a set of independent
access ranges for a disk. Here as well we could get rid off q->sysfs_
dir_lock and only use q->sysfs_lock.

The only variable which q->sysfs_dir_lock appears to protect is q->
mq_sysfs_init_done which is set/unset while registering/unregistering
blk-mq with sysfs. But use of q->mq_sysfs_init_done could be easily
replaced using queue registered bit QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED.

So with this patch we remove q->sysfs_dir_lock from each callsite
and replace q->mq_sysfs_init_done using QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED.

Christoph HellwigandJens Axboe d432c817c2 block: don't update BLK_FEAT_POLL in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues
When __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues changes the number of tag sets, it
might have to disable poll queues.  Currently it does so by adjusting
the BLK_FEAT_POLL, which is a bit against the intent of features that
describe hardware / driver capabilities, but more importantly causes
nasty lock order problems with the broadly held freeze when updating the
number of hardware queues and the limits lock.  Fix this by leaving
BLK_FEAT_POLL alone, and instead check for the number of poll queues in
the bio submission and poll handlers.  While this adds extra work to the
fast path, the variables are in cache lines used by these operations
anyway, so it should be cheap enough.

Otherwise feature reconfiguration can race with I/O submission.

Also drop the bio_clear_polled in the error path, as the flag does not
matter for instant error completions, it is a left over from when we
allowed polled I/O to proceed unpolled in this case.

Ming LeiandJens Axboe 6a78699838 block: always verify unfreeze lock on the owner task
commit f1be1788a3 ("block: model freeze & enter queue as lock for
supporting lockdep") tries to apply lockdep for verifying freeze &
unfreeze. However, the verification is only done the outmost freeze and
unfreeze. This way is actually not correct because q->mq_freeze_depth
still may drop to zero on other task instead of the freeze owner task.

Fix this issue by always verifying the last unfreeze lock on the owner
task context, and make sure both the outmost freeze & unfreeze are
verified in the current task.
