After commit 396eaf21ee ("blk-mq: improve DM's blk-mq IO merging via
blk_insert_cloned_request feedback"), map_request() will requeue the tio
when issued clone request return BLK_STS_RESOURCE or BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE.
Thus, if device driver status is error, a tio may be requeued multiple
times until the return value is not DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE. That means
type->start_io may be called multiple times, while type->end_io is only
called when IO complete.
In fact, even without commit 396eaf21ee, setup_clone() failure can
also cause tio requeue and associated missed call to type->end_io.
The service-time path selector selects path based on in_flight_size,
which is increased by st_start_io() and decreased by st_end_io().
Missed calls to st_end_io() can lead to in_flight_size count error and
will cause the selector to make the wrong choice. In addition,
queue-length path selector will also be affected.
To fix the problem, call type->end_io in ->release_clone_rq before tio
requeue. map_info is passed to ->release_clone_rq() for map_request()
error path that result in requeue.

Storage devices which report supporting discard commands like
WRITE_SAME_16 with unmap, but reject discard commands sent to the
storage device. This is a clear storage firmware bug but it doesn't
change the fact that should a program cause discards to be sent to a
multipath device layered on this buggy storage, all paths can end up
failed at the same time from the discards, causing possible I/O loss.
The first discard to a path will fail with Illegal Request, Invalid
field in cdb, e.g.:
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 Add. Sense: Invalid field in cdb
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 CDB: Write same(16) 93 08 00 00 00 00 00 a0 08 00 00 00 80 00 00 00
kernel: blk_update_request: critical target error, dev sdfn, sector 10487808
The SCSI layer converts this to the BLK_STS_TARGET error number, the sd
device disables its support for discard on this path, and because of the
BLK_STS_TARGET error multipath fails the discard without failing any
path or retrying down a different path. But subsequent discards can
cause path failures. Any discards sent to the path which already failed
a discard ends up failing with EIO from blk_cloned_rq_check_limits with
an "over max size limit" error since the discard limit was set to 0 by
the sd driver for the path. As the error is EIO, this now fails the
path and multipath tries to send the discard down the next path. This
cycle continues as discards are sent until all paths fail.
Fix this by training DM core to disable DISCARD if the underlying
storage already did so.
Also, fix branching in dm_done() and clone_endio() to reflect the
mutually exclussive nature of the IO operations in question.

Block core changes to switch bio-based IO accounting to be percpu had a
side-effect of altering DM core to now rely on calling waitqueue_active
(in both bio-based and request-based) to check if another task is in
dm_wait_for_completion().
A memory barrier is needed before calling waitqueue_active(). DM core
doesn't piggyback on a preceding memory barrier so it must explicitly
use its own.
For more details on why using waitqueue_active() without a preceding
barrier is unsafe, please see the comment before the waitqueue_active()
definition in include/linux/wait.h.
Add the missing memory barrier by switching to using wq_has_sleeper().

Currently, struct request has four timestamp fields:
- A start time, set at get_request time, in jiffies, used for iostats
- An I/O start time, set at start_request time, in ktime nanoseconds,
used for blk-stats (i.e., wbt, kyber, hybrid polling)
- Another start time and another I/O start time, used for cfq and bfq
These can all be consolidated into one start time and one I/O start
time, both in ktime nanoseconds, shaving off up to 16 bytes from struct
request depending on the kernel config.

This status is returned from driver to block layer if device related
resource is unavailable, but driver can guarantee that IO dispatch
will be triggered in future when the resource is available.
Convert some drivers to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. Also, if driver
returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE and SCHED_RESTART is set, rerun queue after
a delay (BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE) to avoid IO stalls. BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE is
3 ms because both scsi-mq and nvmefc are using that magic value.
If a driver can make sure there is in-flight IO, it is safe to return
BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE because:
1) If all in-flight IOs complete before examining SCHED_RESTART in
blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), SCHED_RESTART must be cleared, so queue
is run immediately in this case by blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list();
2) if there is any in-flight IO after/when examining SCHED_RESTART
in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list():
- if SCHED_RESTART isn't set, queue is run immediately as handled in 1)
- otherwise, this request will be dispatched after any in-flight IO is
completed via blk_mq_sched_restart()
3) if SCHED_RESTART is set concurently in context because of
BLK_STS_RESOURCE, blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() will cover the above two
cases and make sure IO hang can be avoided.
One invariant is that queue will be rerun if SCHED_RESTART is set.

Add DM_ENDIO_DELAY_REQUEUE to allow request-based multipath's
multipath_end_io() to instruct dm-rq.c:dm_done() to delay a requeue.
This is beneficial to do if BLK_STS_RESOURCE is returned from the target
(because target is busy).
Relative to blk-mq: kick the hw queues via blk_mq_requeue_work(),
indirectly from dm-rq.c:__dm_mq_kick_requeue_list(), after a delay.
For old .request_fn: use blk_delay_queue().

[as interpreted from Bart's "... patch looks fine to me."]
blk_insert_cloned_request() is called in the fast path of a dm-rq driver
(e.g. blk-mq request-based DM mpath). blk_insert_cloned_request() uses
blk_mq_request_bypass_insert() to directly append the request to the
blk-mq hctx->dispatch_list of the underlying queue.
1) This way isn't efficient enough because the hctx spinlock is always
used.
2) With blk_insert_cloned_request(), we completely bypass underlying
queue's elevator and depend on the upper-level dm-rq driver's elevator
to schedule IO. But dm-rq currently can't get the underlying queue's
dispatch feedback at all. Without knowing whether a request was issued
or not (e.g. due to underlying queue being busy) the dm-rq elevator will
not be able to provide effective IO merging (as a side-effect of dm-rq
currently blindly destaging a request from its elevator only to requeue
it after a delay, which kills any opportunity for merging). This
obviously causes very bad sequential IO performance.
Fix this by updating blk_insert_cloned_request() to use
blk_mq_request_direct_issue(). blk_mq_request_direct_issue() allows a
request to be issued directly to the underlying queue and returns the
dispatch feedback (blk_status_t). If blk_mq_request_direct_issue()
returns BLK_SYS_RESOURCE the dm-rq driver will now use DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE
to _not_ destage the request. Whereby preserving the opportunity to
merge IO.
With this, request-based DM's blk-mq sequential IO performance is vastly
improved (as much as 3X in mpath/virtio-scsi testing).

DM is no longer prone to having its request_queue be improperly
initialized.
Summary of changes:
- defer DM's blk_register_queue() from add_disk()-time until
dm_setup_md_queue() by using add_disk_no_queue_reg() in alloc_dev().
- dm_setup_md_queue() is updated to fully initialize DM's request_queue
(_after_ all table loads have occurred and the request_queue's type,
features and limits are known).
A very welcome side-effect of these changes is DM no longer needs to:
1) backfill the "mq" sysfs entry (because historically DM didn't
initialize the request_queue to use blk-mq until _after_
blk_register_queue() was called via add_disk()).
2) call elv_register_queue() to get .request_fn request-based DM
device's "iosched" exposed in syfs.
In addition, blk-mq debugfs support is now made available because
request-based DM's blk-mq request_queue is now properly initialized
before dm_setup_md_queue() calls blk_register_queue().
These changes also stave off the need to introduce new DM-specific
workarounds in block core, e.g. this proposal:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10067961/
In the end DM devices should be less unicorn in nature (relative to
initialization and availability of block core infrastructure provided by
the request_queue).

We don't need to update the original dm request partially when ending
each cloned bio: just update original dm request once when the whole
cloned request is finished. This still allows full support for partial
completion because a new 'completed' counter accounts for incremental
progress as the clone bios complete.
Partial request update can be a bit expensive, so we should try to avoid
it, especially because it is run in softirq context.
Avoiding all the partial request updates fixes both hard lockup and
soft lockups that were easily reproduced while running Laurence's
test[1] on IB/SRP.
BTW, after d4acf3650c ("block: Make blk_mq_delay_kick_requeue_list()
rerun the queue at a quiet time"), we need to make the test more
aggressive for reproducing the lockup:
1) run hammer_write.sh 32 or 64 concurrently.
2) write 8M each time

blk_mq_unquiesce_queue() is used for unquiescing the
queue explicitly, so replace blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues()
with it.
For the scsi part, this patch takes Bart's suggestion to
switch to block quiesce/unquiesce API completely.

Replace bi_error with a new bi_status to allow for a clear conversion.
Note that device mapper overloaded bi_error with a private value, which

Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings. This patch
instead introduces a new blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning. Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.
For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.
blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

mtip32xx it was unused anyway.
Also pass the tag_set instead of just the driver data - this allows drivers
to avoid some code duplication in a follow on cleanup.

If blk_get_request() returns ENODEV then multipath_clone_and_map()
causes a request to be requeued immediately. This can cause a kworker
thread to spend 100% of the CPU time of a single core in
__blk_mq_run_hw_queue() and also can cause device removal to never
finish.
Avoid this by only requeuing after a delay if blk_get_request() fails.
Additionally, reduce the requeue delay.

While running the srp-test software I noticed that request
processing stalls sporadically at the beginning of a test, namely
when mkfs is run against a dm-mpath device. Every time when that
happened the following command was sufficient to resume request
processing:
echo run >/sys/kernel/debug/block/dm-0/state
This patch avoids that such request processing stalls occur. The
test I ran is as follows:

DM already calls blk_mq_alloc_request on the request_queue of the
underlying device if it is a blk-mq device. But now that we allow drivers
to allocate additional data and initialize it ahead of time we need to do
the same for all drivers. Doing so and using the new cmd_size
infrastructure in the block layer greatly simplifies the dm-rq and mpath
code, and should also make arbitrary combinations of SQ and MQ devices
with SQ or MQ device mapper tables easily possible as a further step.

Return an errno value instead of the passed in queue so that the callers
don't have to keep track of two queues, and move the assignment of the
request_fn and lock to the caller as passing them as argument doesn't
simplify anything. While we're at it also remove two pointless NULL
assignments, given that the request structure is zeroed on allocation.
