6c60ff048c block: prevent block device lookups at the beginning of del_gendisk
As an artifact of how gendisk lookup used to work in earlier kernels,
GENHD_FL_UP is only cleared very late in del_gendisk, and a global lock
is used to prevent opens from succeeding while del_gendisk is tearing
down the gendisk.  Switch to clearing the flag early and under bd_mutex
so that callers can use bd_mutex to stabilize the flag, which removes
the need for the global mutex.

630ef623ed blk-mq: Swap two calls in blk_mq_exit_queue()
If a tag set is shared across request queues (e.g. SCSI LUNs) then the
block layer core keeps track of the number of active request queues in
tags->active_queues. blk_mq_tag_busy() and blk_mq_tag_idle() update that
atomic counter if the hctx flag BLK_MQ_F_TAG_QUEUE_SHARED is set. Make
sure that blk_mq_exit_queue() calls blk_mq_tag_idle() before that flag is
cleared by blk_mq_del_queue_tag_set().

03f26d8f11 blk-mq: plug request for shared sbitmap
In case of shared sbitmap, request won't be held in plug list any more
sine commit 32bc15afed ("blk-mq: Facilitate a shared sbitmap per
tagset"), this way makes request merge from flush plug list & batching
submission not possible, so cause performance regression.

Yanhui reports performance regression when running sequential IO
test(libaio, 16 jobs, 8 depth for each job) in VM, and the VM disk
is emulated with image stored on xfs/megaraid_sas.

Fix the issue by recovering original behavior to allow to hold request
in plug list.

7ea96eefb0 block, bfq: avoid circular stable merges
BFQ may merge a new bfq_queue, stably, with the last bfq_queue
created. In particular, BFQ first waits a little bit for some I/O to
flow inside the new queue, say Q2, if this is needed to understand
whether it is better or worse to merge Q2 with the last queue created,
say Q1. This delayed stable merge is performed by assigning
bic->stable_merge_bfqq = Q1, for the bic associated with Q1.

Yet, while waiting for some I/O to flow in Q2, a non-stable queue
merge of Q2 with Q1 may happen, causing the bic previously associated
with Q2 to be associated with exactly Q1 (bic->bfqq = Q1). After that,
Q2 and Q1 may happen to be split, and, in the split, Q1 may happen to
be recycled as a non-shared bfq_queue. In that case, Q1 may then
happen to undergo a stable merge with the bfq_queue pointed by
bic->stable_merge_bfqq. Yet bic->stable_merge_bfqq still points to
Q1. So Q1 would be merged with itself.

This commit fixes this error by intercepting this situation, and
canceling the schedule of the stable merge.

e9f4eee9a0 blk-iocost: fix weight updates of inner active iocgs
When the weight of an active iocg is updated, weight_updated() is called
which in turn calls __propagate_weights() to update the active and inuse
weights so that the effective hierarchical weights are update accordingly.

The current implementation is incorrect for inner active nodes. For an
active leaf iocg, inuse can be any value between 1 and active and the
difference represents how much the iocg is donating. When weight is updated,
as long as inuse is clamped between 1 and the new weight, we're alright and
this is what __propagate_weights() currently implements.

However, that's not how an active inner node's inuse is set. An inner node's
inuse is solely determined by the ratio between the sums of inuse's and
active's of its children - ie. they're results of propagating the leaves'
active and inuse weights upwards. __propagate_weights() incorrectly applies
the same clamping as for a leaf when an active inner node's weight is
updated. Consider a hierarchy which looks like the following with saturating
workloads in AA and BB.

     R
   /   \
  A     B
  |     |
 AA     BB

1. For both A and B, active=100, inuse=100, hwa=0.5, hwi=0.5.

2. echo 200 > A/io.weight

3. __propagate_weights() update A's active to 200 and leave inuse at 100 as
   it's already between 1 and the new active, making A:active=200,
   A:inuse=100. As R's active_sum is updated along with A's active,
   A:hwa=2/3, B:hwa=1/3. However, because the inuses didn't change, the
   hwi's remain unchanged at 0.5.

4. The weight of A is now twice that of B but AA and BB still have the same
   hwi of 0.5 and thus are doing the same amount of IOs.

Fix it by making __propgate_weights() always calculate the inuse of an
active inner iocg based on the ratio of child_inuse_sum to child_active_sum.

efed9a3337 kyber: fix out of bounds access when preempted
__blk_mq_sched_bio_merge() gets the ctx and hctx for the current CPU and
passes the hctx to ->bio_merge(). kyber_bio_merge() then gets the ctx
for the current CPU again and uses that to get the corresponding Kyber
context in the passed hctx. However, the thread may be preempted between
the two calls to blk_mq_get_ctx(), and the ctx returned the second time
may no longer correspond to the passed hctx. This "works" accidentally
most of the time, but it can cause us to read garbage if the second ctx
came from an hctx with more ctx's than the first one (i.e., if
ctx->index_hw[hctx->type] > hctx->nr_ctx).

This manifested as this UBSAN array index out of bounds error reported
by Jakub:

Only Kyber uses the hctx, so fix it by passing the request_queue to
->bio_merge() instead. BFQ and mq-deadline just use that, and Kyber can
map the queues itself to avoid the mismatch.

cd2c7545ae bio: limit bio max size
bio size can grow up to 4GB when muli-page bvec is enabled.
but sometimes it would lead to inefficient behaviors.
in case of large chunk direct I/O, - 32MB chunk read in user space -
all pages for 32MB would be merged to a bio structure if the pages
physical addresses are contiguous. it makes some delay to submit
until merge complete. bio max size should be limited to a proper size.

When 32MB chunk read with direct I/O option is coming from userspace,
kernel behavior is below now in do_direct_IO() loop. it's timeline.

 | bio merge for 32MB. total 8,192 pages are merged.
 | total elapsed time is over 2ms.
 |------------------ ... ----------------------->|
                                                 | 8,192 pages merged a bio.
                                                 | at this time, first bio submit is done.
                                                 | 1 bio is split to 32 read request and issue.

                                                                   |--------------->
                                                                    |--------------->|
                          total 19ms elapsed to complete 32MB read done from device. |

If bio max size is limited with 1MB, behavior is changed below.

 | bio merge for 1MB. 256 pages are merged for each bio.
 | total 32 bio will be made.
 | total elapsed time is over 2ms. it's same.
 | but, first bio submit timing is fast. about 100us.
 |--->|--->|--->|---> ... -->|--->|--->|--->|--->|
      | 256 pages merged a bio.
      | at this time, first bio submit is done.
      | and 1 read request is issued for 1 bio.
      |--------------->
           |--------------->
                |--------------->
                                      ......
                                                 |--------------->
                                                  |--------------->|
        total 17ms elapsed to complete 32MB read done from device. |

As a result, read request issue timing is faster if bio max size is limited.
Current kernel behavior with multipage bvec, super large bio can be created.
And it lead to delay first I/O request issue.

 "This builds on last cycle's LTO work, and allows the arm64 kernels to
  be built with Clang's Control Flow Integrity feature. This feature has
  happily lived in Android kernels for almost 3 years[1], so I'm excited
  to have it ready for upstream.

  The wide diffstat is mainly due to the treewide fixing of mismatched
  list_sort prototypes. Other things in core kernel are to address
  various CFI corner cases. The largest code portion is the CFI runtime
  implementation itself (which will be shared by all architectures
  implementing support for CFI). The arm64 pieces are Acked by arm64
  maintainers rather than coming through the arm64 tree since carrying
  this tree over there was going to be awkward.

  CFI support for x86 is still under development, but is pretty close.
  There are a handful of corner cases on x86 that need some improvements

f46ec84b5a blk-iocost: don't ignore vrate_min on QD contention
ioc_adjust_base_vrate() ignored vrate_min when rq_wait_pct indicates that
there is QD contention. The reasoning was that QD depletion always reliably
indicates device saturation and thus it's safe to override user specified
vrate_min. However, this sometimes leads to unnecessary throttling,
especially on really fast devices, because vrate adjustments have delays and
inertia. It also confuses users because the behavior violates the explicitly
specified configuration.

This patch drops the special case handling so that vrate_min is always
applied.

1e91e28e37 blk-mq: Fix spurious debugfs directory creation during initialization
blk_mq_debugfs_register_sched_hctx() called from
device_add_disk()->elevator_init_mq()->blk_mq_init_sched()
initialization sequence does not have relevant parent directory
setup and thus spuriously attempts "sched" directory creation
from root mount of debugfs for every hw queue detected on the
block device

dmesg
...
debugfs: Directory 'sched' with parent '/' already present!
debugfs: Directory 'sched' with parent '/' already present!
.
.
debugfs: Directory 'sched' with parent '/' already present!
...

The parent debugfs directory for hw queues get properly setup
device_add_disk()->blk_register_queue()->blk_mq_debugfs_register()
->blk_mq_debugfs_register_hctx() later in the block device
initialization sequence.

A simple check for debugfs_dir has been added to thwart premature
debugfs directory/file creation attempts.

7687b38ae4 bfq/mq-deadline: remove redundant check for passthrough request
Since commit 01e99aeca3 'blk-mq: insert passthrough request into
hctx->dispatch directly', passthrough request should not appear in
IO-scheduler any more, so blk_rq_is_passthrough checking in addon IO
schedulers is redundant.

(Notes: this patch passes generic IO load test with hdds under SAS
controller and hdds under AHCI controller but obviously not covers all.
Not sure if passthrough request can still escape into IO scheduler from
blk_mq_sched_insert_requests, which is used by blk_mq_flush_plug_list and
has lots of indirect callers.)

8d663f34f8 blk-mq: bypass IO scheduler's limit_depth for passthrough request
Commit 01e99aeca3 ("blk-mq: insert passthrough request into

bypass underlying IO scheduler. But as we allocate tag for such request it
still runs io-scheduler's callback limit_depth, while we really want is to
give full sbitmap-depth capabity to such request for acquiring available
tag.
blktrace shows PC requests(dmraid -s -c -i) hit bfq's limit_depth:

list_sort() internally casts the comparison function passed to it
to a different type with constant struct list_head pointers, and
uses this pointer to call the functions, which trips indirect call
Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) checking.

Instead of removing the consts, this change defines the
list_cmp_func_t type and changes the comparison function types of

it is caused by none scheduler which becomes default elevator caused by
hctx shared tagset patchset.

Given more scsi HBAs will apply hctx shared tagset, and the similar
performance exists for them too.

So keep previous behavior by still using default mq-deadline for queues
which apply hctx shared tagset, just like before.

3edf5346e4 block: only update parent bi_status when bio fail
For multiple split bios, if one of the bio is fail, the whole
should return error to application. But we found there is a race
between bio_integrity_verify_fn and bio complete, which return
io success to application after one of the bio fail. The race as
following:

split bio(READ)          kworker

nvme_complete_rq
blk_update_request //split error=0
  bio_endio
    bio_integrity_endio
      queue_work(kintegrityd_wq, &bip->bip_work);

                         bio_integrity_verify_fn
                         bio_endio //split bio
                          __bio_chain_endio
                             if (!parent->bi_status)

                               <interrupt entry>
                               nvme_irq
                                 blk_update_request //parent error=7
                                 req_bio_endio
                                    bio->bi_status = 7 //parent bio
                               <interrupt exit>

                               parent->bi_status = 0
                        parent->bi_end_io() // return bi_status=0

The bio has been split as two: split and parent. When split
bio completed, it depends on kworker to do endio, while
bio_integrity_verify_fn have been interrupted by parent bio
complete irq handler. Then, parent bio->bi_status which have
been set in irq handler will overwrite by kworker.

In fact, even without the above race, we also need to conside
the concurrency beteen mulitple split bio complete and update
the same parent bi_status. Normally, multiple split bios will
be issued to the same hctx and complete from the same irq
vector. But if we have updated queue map between multiple split
bios, these bios may complete on different hw queue and different
irq vector. Then the concurrency update parent bi_status may
cause the final status error.

e82fc78557 block: don't create too many partitions
Commit a33df75c63 ("block: use an xarray for disk->part_tbl") drops the
check on max supported number of partitionsr, and allows partition with
bigger partition numbers to be added. However, ->bd_partno is defined as
u8, so partition index of xarray table may not match with ->bd_partno.
Then delete_partition() may delete one unmatched partition, and caused
use-after-free.

430a67f9d6 block, bfq: merge bursts of newly-created queues
Many throughput-sensitive workloads are made of several parallel I/O
flows, with all flows generated by the same application, or more
generically by the same task (e.g., system boot). The most
counterproductive action with these workloads is plugging I/O dispatch
when one of the bfq_queues associated with these flows remains
temporarily empty.

To avoid this plugging, BFQ has been using a burst-handling mechanism
for years now. This mechanism has proven effective for throughput, and
not detrimental for service guarantees. This commit pushes this
mechanism a little bit further, basing on the following two facts.

First, all the I/O flows of a the same application or task contribute
to the execution/completion of that common application or task. So the
performance figures that matter are total throughput of the flows and
task-wide I/O latency.  In particular, these flows do not need to be
protected from each other, in terms of individual bandwidth or
latency.

Second, the above fact holds regardless of the number of flows.

Putting these two facts together, this commits merges stably the
bfq_queues associated with these I/O flows, i.e., with the processes
that generate these IO/ flows, regardless of how many the involved
processes are.

To decide whether a set of bfq_queues is actually associated with the
I/O flows of a common application or task, and to merge these queues
stably, this commit operates as follows: given a bfq_queue, say Q2,
currently being created, and the last bfq_queue, say Q1, created
before Q2, Q2 is merged stably with Q1 if
- very little time has elapsed since when Q1 was created
- Q2 has the same ioprio as Q1
- Q2 belongs to the same group as Q1

Merging bfq_queues also reduces scheduling overhead. A fio test with
ten random readers on /dev/nullb shows a throughput boost of 40%, with
a quadcore. Since BFQ's execution time amounts to ~50% of the total
per-request processing time, the above throughput boost implies that
BFQ's overhead is reduced by more than 50%.

85686d0dc1 block, bfq: keep shared queues out of the waker mechanism
Shared queues are likely to receive I/O at a high rate. This may
deceptively let them be considered as wakers of other queues. But a
false waker will unjustly steal bandwidth to its supposedly woken
queue. So considering also shared queues in the waking mechanism may
cause more control troubles than throughput benefits. This commit
keeps shared queues out of the waker-detection mechanism.

8c54477009 block, bfq: fix weight-raising resume with !low_latency
When the io_latency heuristic is off, bfq_queues must not start to be
weight-raised. Unfortunately, by mistake, this may happen when the
state of a previously weight-raised bfq_queue is resumed after a queue
split. This commit fixes this error.

8ef3fc3a04 block, bfq: make shared queues inherit wakers
Consider a bfq_queue bfqq that is about to be merged with another
bfq_queue new_bfqq. The processes associated with bfqq are cooperators
of the processes associated with new_bfqq. So, if bfqq has a waker,
then it is reasonable (and beneficial for throughput) to assume that
all these processes will be happy to let bfqq's waker freely inject
I/O when they have no I/O. So this commit makes new_bfqq inherit
bfqq's waker.

7cc4ffc555 block, bfq: put reqs of waker and woken in dispatch list
Consider a new I/O request that arrives for a bfq_queue bfqq. If, when
this happens, the only active bfq_queues are bfqq and either its waker
bfq_queue or one of its woken bfq_queues, then there is no point in
queueing this new I/O request in bfqq for service. In fact, the
in-service queue and bfqq agree on serving this new I/O request as
soon as possible. So this commit puts this new I/O request directly
into the dispatch list.

2ec5a5c483 block, bfq: always inject I/O of queues blocked by wakers
Suppose that I/O dispatch is plugged, to wait for new I/O for the
in-service bfq-queue, say bfqq.  Suppose then that there is a further
bfq_queue woken by bfqq, and that this woken queue has pending I/O. A
woken queue does not steal bandwidth from bfqq, because it remains
soon without I/O if bfqq is not served. So there is virtually no risk
of loss of bandwidth for bfqq if this woken queue has I/O dispatched
while bfqq is waiting for new I/O. In contrast, this extra I/O
injection boosts throughput. This commit performs this extra
injection.
