c2856ae2f3 ("blk-mq: quiesce queue before freeing queue") has
already fixed this race, however the implied synchronize_rcu()
in blk_mq_quiesce_queue() can slow down LUN probe a lot, so caused
performance regression.
Then 1311326cf4 ("blk-mq: avoid to synchronize rcu inside blk_cleanup_queue()")
tried to quiesce queue for avoiding unnecessary synchronize_rcu()
only when queue initialization is done, because it is usual to see
lots of inexistent LUNs which need to be probed.
However, turns out it isn't safe to quiesce queue only when queue
initialization is done. Because when one SCSI command is completed,
the user of sending command can be waken up immediately, then the
scsi device may be removed, meantime the run queue in scsi_end_request()
is still in-progress, so kernel panic can be caused.
In Red Hat QE lab, there are several reports about this kind of kernel
panic triggered during kernel booting.
This patch tries to address the issue by grabing one queue usage
counter during freeing one request and the following run queue.

A discard cleanup merged into 4.20-rc2 causes fstests xfs/259 to
fall into an endless loop in the discard code. The test is creating
a device that is exactly 2^32 sectors in size to test mkfs boundary
conditions around the 32 bit sector overflow region.
mkfs issues a discard for the entire device size by default, and
hence this throws a sector count of 2^32 into
blkdev_issue_discard(). It takes the number of sectors to discard as
a sector_t - a 64 bit value.
The commit ba5d73851e ("block: cleanup __blkdev_issue_discard")
takes this sector count and casts it to a 32 bit value before
comapring it against the maximum allowed discard size the device
has. This truncates away the upper 32 bits, and so if the lower 32
bits of the sector count is zero, it starts issuing discards of
length 0. This causes the code to fall into an endless loop, issuing
a zero length discards over and over again on the same sector.

This happens because the bio gap detection code does not account cases

There are two cases when handle DISCARD merge.
If max_discard_segments == 1, the bios/requests need to be contiguous
to merge. If max_discard_segments > 1, it takes every bio as a range
and different range needn't to be contiguous.
But now, attempt_merge screws this up. It always consider contiguity
for DISCARD for the case max_discard_segments > 1 and cannot merge
contiguous DISCARD for the case max_discard_segments == 1, because
rq_attempt_discard_merge always returns false in this case.

Since commit 2d29c9f89f ("block, bfq: improve asymmetric scenarios
detection"), a scenario is defined asymmetric when one of the
following conditions holds:
- active bfq_queues have different weights
- one or more group of entities (bfq_queue or other groups of entities)
are active
bfq grants fairness and low latency also in such asymmetric scenarios,
by plugging the dispatching of I/O if the bfq_queue in service happens
to be temporarily idle. This plugging may lower throughput, so it is
important to do it only when strictly needed.
By mistake, in commit '2d29c9f89fcd' ("block, bfq: improve asymmetric
scenarios detection") the num_active_groups counter was firstly
incremented and subsequently decremented at any entity (group or
bfq_queue) weight change.
This is useless, because only transitions from active to inactive and
vice versa matter for that counter. Unfortunately this is also
incorrect in the following case: the entity at issue is a bfq_queue
and it is under weight raising. In fact in this case there is a
spurious increment of the num_active_groups counter.
This spurious increment may cause scenarios to be wrongly detected as
asymmetric, thus causing useless plugging and loss of throughput.
This commit fixes this issue by simply removing the above useless and
wrong increments and decrements.

Drivers exposing zoned block devices have to initialize and maintain
correctness (i.e. revalidate) of the device zone bitmaps attached to
the device request queue (seq_zones_bitmap and seq_zones_wlock).
To simplify coding this, introduce a generic helper function
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() suitable for most (and likely all) cases.
This new function always update the seq_zones_bitmap and seq_zones_wlock
bitmaps as well as the queue nr_zones field when called for a disk
using a request based queue. For a disk using a BIO based queue, only
the number of zones is updated since these queues do not have
schedulers and so do not need the zone bitmaps.
With this change, the zone bitmap initialization code in sd_zbc.c can be
replaced with a call to this function in sd_zbc_read_zones(), which is
called from the disk revalidate block operation method.
A call to blk_revalidate_disk_zones() is also added to the null_blk
driver for devices created with the zoned mode enabled.
Finally, to ensure that zoned devices created with dm-linear or
dm-flakey expose the correct number of zones through sysfs, a call to
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() is added to dm_table_set_restrictions().
The zone bitmaps allocated and initialized with
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() are freed automatically from
__blk_release_queue() using the block internal function
blk_queue_free_zone_bitmaps().

Dispatching a report zones command through the request queue is a major
pain due to the command reply payload rewriting necessary. Given that
blkdev_report_zones() is executing everything synchronously, implement
report zones as a block device file operation instead, allowing major
simplification of the code in many places.
sd, null-blk, dm-linear and dm-flakey being the only block device
drivers supporting exposing zoned block devices, these drivers are
modified to provide the device side implementation of the
report_zones() block device file operation.
For device mappers, a new report_zones() target type operation is
defined so that the upper block layer calls blkdev_report_zones() can
be propagated down to the underlying devices of the dm targets.
Implementation for this new operation is added to the dm-linear and
dm-flakey targets.

Expose through sysfs the nr_zones field of struct request_queue.
Exposing this value helps in debugging disk issues as well as
facilitating scripts based use of the disk (e.g. blktests).
For zoned block devices, the nr_zones field indicates the total number
of zones of the device calculated using the known disk capacity and
zone size. This number of zones is always 0 for regular block devices.
Since nr_zones is defined conditionally with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED,
introduce the blk_queue_nr_zones() function to return the correct value
for any device, regardless if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is set.

There is no need to synchronously execute all REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET BIOs
necessary to reset a range of zones. Similarly to what is done for
discard BIOs in blk-lib.c, all zone reset BIOs can be chained and
executed asynchronously and a synchronous call done only for the last
BIO of the chain.
Modify blkdev_reset_zones() to operate similarly to
blkdev_issue_discard() using the next_bio() helper for chaining BIOs. To
avoid code duplication of that function in blk_zoned.c, rename
next_bio() into blk_next_bio() and declare it as a block internal
function in blk.h.

When we try to increate the nr_hw_queues, we may fail due to
shortage of memory or other reason, then blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs stops
and some entries in q->queue_hw_ctx are left with NULL. However,
because queue map has been updated with new nr_hw_queues, some cpus
have been mapped to hw queue which just encounters allocation failure,
thus blk_mq_map_queue could return NULL. This will cause panic in
following blk_mq_map_swqueue.
To fix it, when increase nr_hw_queues fails, fallback to previous
nr_hw_queues and post warning. At the same time, driver's .map_queues
usually use completion irq affinity to map hw and cpu, fallback
nr_hw_queues will cause lack of some cpu's map to hw, so use default
blk_mq_map_queues to do that.

bfq defines as asymmetric a scenario where an active entity, say E
(representing either a single bfq_queue or a group of other entities),
has a higher weight than some other entities. If the entity E does sync
I/O in such a scenario, then bfq plugs the dispatch of the I/O of the
other entities in the following situation: E is in service but
temporarily has no pending I/O request. In fact, without this plugging,
all the times that E stops being temporarily idle, it may find the
internal queues of the storage device already filled with an
out-of-control number of extra requests, from other entities. So E may
have to wait for the service of these extra requests, before finally
having its own requests served. This may easily break service
guarantees, with E getting less than its fair share of the device
throughput. Usually, the end result is that E gets the same fraction of
the throughput as the other entities, instead of getting more, according
to its higher weight.
Yet there are two other more subtle cases where E, even if its weight is
actually equal to or even lower than the weight of any other active
entities, may get less than its fair share of the throughput in case the
above I/O plugging is not performed:
1. other entities issue larger requests than E;
2. other entities contain more active child entities than E (or in
general tend to have more backlog than E).
In the first case, other entities may get more service than E because
they get larger requests, than those of E, served during the temporary
idle periods of E. In the second case, other entities get more service
because, by having many child entities, they have many requests ready
for dispatching while E is temporarily idle.
This commit addresses this issue by extending the definition of
asymmetric scenario: a scenario is asymmetric when
- active entities representing bfq_queues have differentiated weights,
as in the original definition
or (inclusive)
- one or more entities representing groups of entities are active.
This broader definition makes sure that I/O plugging will be performed
in all the above cases, provided that there is at least one active
group. Of course, this definition is very coarse, so it will trigger
I/O plugging also in cases where it is not needed, such as, e.g.,
multiple active entities with just one child each, and all with the same
I/O-request size. The reason for this coarse definition is just that a
finer-grained definition would be rather heavy to compute.
On the opposite end, even this new definition does not trigger I/O
plugging in all cases where there is no active group, and all bfq_queues
have the same weight. So, in these cases some unfairness may occur if
there are asymmetries in I/O-request sizes. We made this choice because
I/O plugging may lower throughput, and probably a user that has not
created any group cares more about throughput than about perfect
fairness. At any rate, as for possible applications that may care about
service guarantees, bfq already guarantees a high responsiveness and a
low latency to soft real-time applications automatically.

'default n' is the default value for any bool or tristate Kconfig
setting so there is no need to write it explicitly.
Also since commit f467c5640c ("kconfig: only write '# CONFIG_FOO
is not set' for visible symbols") the Kconfig behavior is the same
regardless of 'default n' being present or not:
...
One side effect of (and the main motivation for) this change is making
the following two definitions behave exactly the same:
config FOO
bool
config FOO
bool
default n
With this change, neither of these will generate a
'# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line (assuming FOO isn't selected/implied).
That might make it clearer to people that a bare 'default n' is
redundant.

Lot of controllers may have only one irq vector for completing IO
request. And usually affinity of the only irq vector is all possible
CPUs, however, on most of ARCH, there may be only one specific CPU
for handling this interrupt.
So if all IOs are completed in hardirq context, it is inevitable to
degrade IO performance because of increased irq latency.
This patch tries to address this issue by allowing to complete request
in softirq context, like the legacy IO path.

We apply a smoothing to the scale changes in order to keep sawtoothy
behavior from occurring. However our window for checking if we've
missed our target can sometimes be lower than the smoothing interval
(500ms), especially on faster drives like ssd's. In order to deal with
this keep track of the running tally of the previous intervals that we
threw away because we had already done a scale event recently.
This is needed for the ssd case as these low latency drives will have
bursts of latency, and if it happens to be ok for the window that
directly follows the opening of the scale window we could unthrottle
when previous windows we were missing our target.

We use an average latency approach for determining if we're missing our
latency target. This works well for rotational storage where we have
generally consistent latencies, but for ssd's and other low latency
devices you have more of a spikey behavior, which means we often won't
throttle misbehaving groups because a lot of IO completes at drastically
faster times than our latency target. Instead keep track of how many
IO's miss our target and how many IO's are done in our time window. If
the p(90) latency is above our target then we know we need to throttle.
With this change in place we are seeing the same throttling behavior
with our testcase on ssd's as we see with rotational drives.

There is logic to keep cgroups that haven't done a lot of IO in the most
recent scale window from being punished for over-active higher priority
groups. However for things like ssd's where the windows are pretty
short we'll end up with small numbers of samples, so 5% of samples will
come out to 0 if there aren't enough. Make the floor 1 sample to keep
us from improperly bailing out of scaling down.

Hitting the case where blk_queue_depth() returned 1 uncovered the fact
that iolatency doesn't actually handle this case properly, it simply
doesn't scale down anybody. For this case we should go straight into
applying the time delay, which we weren't doing. Since we already limit
the floor at 1 request this if statement is not needed, and this allows
us to set our depth to 1 which allows us to apply the delay if needed.

We were using blk_queue_depth() assuming that it would return
nr_requests, but we hit a case in production on drives that had to have
NCQ turned off in order for them to not shit the bed which resulted in a
qd of 1, even though the nr_requests was much larger. iolatency really
only cares about requests we are allowed to queue up, as any io that
get's onto the request list is going to be serviced soonish, so we want
to be throttling before the bio gets onto the request list. To make
iolatency work as expected, simply use q->nr_requests instead of
blk_queue_depth() as that is what we actually care about.
