Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"New features this cycle include the ability to relabel mounted
filesystems, support for fallocated swapfiles, and using FUA for pure
data O_DSYNC directio writes. With this cycle we begin to integrate
online filesystem repair and refactor the growfs code in preparation
for eventual subvolume support, though the road ahead for both
features is quite long.
There are also numerous refactorings of the iomap code to remove
unnecessary log overhead, to disentangle some of the quota code, and
to prepare for buffer head removal in a future upstream kernel.
Metadata validation continues to improve, both in the hot path
veifiers and the online filesystem check code. I anticipate sending a
second pull request in a few days with more metadata validation
improvements.
This series has been run through a full xfstests run over the weekend
and through a quick xfstests run against this morning's master, with
no major failures reported.
Summary:
- Strengthen inode number and structure validation when allocating
inodes.
- Reduce pointless buffer allocations during cache miss
- Use FUA for pure data O_DSYNC directio writes
- Various iomap refactorings
- Strengthen quota metadata verification to avoid unfixable broken
quota
- Make AGFL block freeing a deferred operation to avoid blowing out
transaction reservations when running complex operations
- Get rid of the log item descriptors to reduce log overhead
- Fix various reflink bugs where inodes were double-joined to
transactions
- Don't issue discards when trimming unwritten extents
- Refactor incore dquot initialization and retrieval interfaces
- Fix some locking problmes in the quota scrub code
- Strengthen btree structure checks in scrub code
- Rewrite swapfile activation to use iomap and support unwritten
extents
- Make scrub exit to userspace sooner when corruptions or
cross-referencing problems are found
- Make scrub invoke the data fork scrubber directly on metadata
inodes
- Don't do background reclamation of post-eof and cow blocks when the
fs is suspended
- Fix secondary superblock buffer lifespan hinting
- Refactor growfs to use table-dispatched functions instead of long
stringy functions
- Move growfs code to libxfs
- Implement online fs label getting and setting
- Introduce online filesystem repair (in a very limited capacity)
- Fix unit conversion problems in the realtime freemap iteration
functions
- Various refactorings and cleanups in preparation to remove buffer
heads in a future release
- Reimplement the old bmap call with iomap
- Remove direct buffer head accesses from seek hole/data
- Various bug fixes"

If we end up splitting a bio and the queue goes away between
the initial submission and the later split submission, then we
can block forever in blk_queue_enter() waiting for the reference
to drop to zero. This will never happen, since we already hold
a reference.
Mark a split bio as already having entered the queue, so we can
just use the live non-blocking queue enter variant.
Thanks to Tetsuo Handa for the analysis.

For the upcoming removal of buffer heads in XFS we need to keep track of
the number of outstanding writeback requests per page. For this we need
to know if bio_add_page merged a region with the previous bvec or not.
Instead of adding additional arguments this refactors bio_add_page to
be implemented using three lower level helpers which users like XFS can
use directly if they care about the merge decisions.

BFQ can deem a bfq_queue as soft real-time only if the queue
- periodically becomes completely idle, i.e., empty and with
no still-outstanding I/O request;
- after becoming idle, gets new I/O only after a special reference
time soft_rt_next_start.
In this respect, after commit "block, bfq: consider also past I/O in
soft real-time detection", the value of soft_rt_next_start can never
decrease. This causes a problem with the following special updating
case for soft_rt_next_start: to prevent queues that are not completely
idle to be wrongly detected as soft real-time (when they become
non-empty again), soft_rt_next_start is temporarily set to infinity
for empty queues with still outstanding I/O requests. But, if such an
update is actually performed, then, because of the above commit,
soft_rt_next_start will be stuck at infinity forever, and the queue
will have no more chance to be considered soft real-time.
On slow systems, this problem does cause actual soft real-time
applications to be occasionally not detected as such.
This commit addresses this issue by eliminating the pushing of
soft_rt_next_start to infinity, and by changing the way non-empty
queues are prevented from being wrongly detected as soft
real-time. Simply, a queue that becomes non-empty again can now be
detected as soft real-time only if it has no outstanding I/O request.

The maximum possible duration of the weight-raising period for
interactive applications is limited to 13 seconds, as this is the time
needed to load the largest application that we considered when tuning
weight raising. Unfortunately, in such an evaluation, we did not
consider the case of very slow virtual machines.
For example, on a QEMU/KVM virtual machine
- running in a slow PC;
- with a virtual disk stacked on a slow low-end 5400rpm HDD;
- serving a heavy I/O workload, such as the sequential reading of
several files;
mplayer takes 23 seconds to start, if constantly weight-raised.
To address this issue, this commit conservatively sets the upper limit
for weight-raising duration to 25 seconds.

BFQ computes the duration of weight raising for interactive
applications automatically, using some reference parameters. In
particular, BFQ uses the best durations (see comments in the code for
how these durations have been assessed) for two classes of systems:
slow and fast ones. Examples of slow systems are old phones or systems
using micro HDDs. Fast systems are all the remaining ones. Using these
parameters, BFQ computes the actual duration of the weight raising,
for the system at hand, as a function of the relative speed of the
system w.r.t. the speed of a reference system, belonging to the same
class of systems as the system at hand.
This slow vs fast differentiation proved to be useful in the past, but
happens to have little meaning with current hardware. Even worse, it
does cause problems in virtual systems, where the speed of the system
can vary frequently, and so widely to just confuse the class-detection
mechanism, and, as we have verified experimentally, to cause BFQ to
compute non-sensical weight-raising durations.
This commit addresses this issue by removing the slow class and the
class-detection mechanism.

A description of how weight raising works is missing in BFQ
sources. In addition, the code for handling weight raising is
scattered across a few functions. This makes it rather hard to
understand the mechanism and its rationale. This commits adds such a
description at the beginning of the main source file.

Since bfq_finish_request() is always called on the request 'next',
after bfq_requests_merged() is finished, and bfq_finish_request()
removes 'next' from its bfq_queue if needed, it isn't necessary to do
such a removal in advance in bfq_merged_requests().
This commit removes such a useless 'next' removal.

The request rq passed to the function bfq_requests_merged is always in
a bfq_queue, so the check !RB_EMPTY_NODE(&rq->rb_node) at the
beginning of bfq_requests_merged always succeeds, and the control
flow systematically skips to the end of the function. This implies
that the body of the function is never executed, i.e., the
repositioning of rq is never performed.
On the opposite end, a control is missing in the body of the function:
'next' must be removed only if it is inside a bfq_queue.
This commit removes the wrong check on rq, and adds the missing check
on 'next'. In addition, this commit adds comments on
bfq_requests_merged.

In bfq_requests_merged(), there is a deadlock because the lock on
bfqq->bfqd->lock is held by the calling function, but the code of
this function tries to grab the lock again.
This deadlock is currently hidden by another bug (fixed by next commit
for this source file), which causes the body of bfq_requests_merged()
to be never executed.
This commit removes the deadlock by removing the lock/unlock pair.

Currently, kyber is very unfriendly with merging. kyber depends
on ctx rq_list to do merging, however, most of time, it will not
leave any requests in ctx rq_list. This is because even if tokens
of one domain is used up, kyber will try to dispatch requests
from other domain and flush the rq_list there.
To improve this, we setup kyber_ctx_queue (kcq) which is similar
with ctx, but it has rq_lists for different domain and build same
mapping between kcq and khd as the ctx & hctx. Then we could merge,
insert and dispatch for different domains separately. At the same
time, only flush the rq_list of kcq when get domain token successfully.
Then if one domain token is used up, the requests could be left in
the rq_list of that domain and maybe merged with following io.
