To facilitates this add a flags argument to blkdev_issue_discard to control both aspects of the behaviour. This will be very useful later on for using the waiting funcitonality for other callers.

The idea is the same as NAPI - instead of doing the command completion when the irq occurs, schedule a dedicated softirq in the hopes that we will complete more IO when the iopoll handler is invoked. Devices have a budget of commands assigned, and will stay in polled mode as long as they continue to consume their budget from the iopoll softirq handler. If they do not, the device is set back to interrupt completion mode. This patch holds the core bits for blk-iopoll, device driver support sold separately.

If that crosses 4, then deem it a queuing device. This is important on high IOPS devices, since plugging hurts the performance there (it can be as much as 10-15% of the sys time).

When issuing, executing and successuflly completing requests, failfast doesn't make any difference. It only affects how a request is handled on failure. Allowing requests with different failfast settings to be merged cause normal IOs to fail prematurely while not allowing has performance penalties as failfast is used for read aheads which are likely to be located near in-flight or to-be-issued normal IOs. This patch introduces the concept of 'mixed merge'. A request is a mixed merge if it is merge of segments which require different handling on failure. Currently the only mixable attributes are failfast ones (or lack thereof). When a bio with different failfast settings is added to an existing request or requests of different failfast settings are merged, the merged request is marked mixed. Each bio carries failfast settings and the request always tracks failfast state of the first bio. When the request fails, blk_rq_err_bytes() can be used to determine how many bytes can be safely failed without crossing into an area which requires further retrials. This allows request merging regardless of failfast settings while keeping the failure handling correct. This patch only implements mixed merge but doesn't enable it. The next one will update SCSI to make use of mixed merge. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Niel Lambrechts <niel.lambrechts@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

If one specifies a value greater then max_hw_sectors is set to that value but max_sectors is set to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS I am not sure whether blk_queue_max_sectors() should be changed, as it seems to be that way for a long time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit ab0fd1debe730ec9998678a0c53caefbd121ed10 tries to prevent merge of requests with different failfast settings. In elv_rq_merge_ok(), it compares new bio's failfast flags against the merge target request's. However, the flag testing accessors for bio and blk don't return boolean but the tested bit value directly and FAILFAST on bio and blk don't match, so directly comparing them with == results in false negative unnecessary preventing merge of readahead requests. This patch convert the results to boolean by negating them before comparison.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case memory is scarce, we now default to oom_cfqq. Once memory is available again, we should allocate a new cfqq and stop using oom_cfqq for a particular io context. Once a new request comes in, check if we are using oom_cfqq, and if yes, try to allocate a new cfqq. Tested the patch by forcing the use of oom_cfqq and upon next request thread realized that it was using oom_cfqq and it allocated a new cfqq.

* | | block: don't merge requests of different failfast settingsTejun Heo2009-07-032-0/+14
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Block layer used to merge requests and bios with different failfast settings. This caused regular IOs to fail prematurely when they were merged into failfast requests for readahead. Niel Lambrechts could trigger the problem semi-reliably on ext4 when resuming from STR. ext4 uses readahead when reading inodes and combined with the deterministic extra SATA PHY exception cycle during resume on the specific configuration, non-readahead inode read would fail causing ext4 errors. Please read the following thread for details. http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/5/23/21 This patch makes block layer reject merging if the failfast settings don't match. This is correct but likely to lower IO performance by preventing regular IOs from mingling into surrounding readahead requests. Changes to allow such mixed merges and handle errors correctly will be added later.

(dm explicitly sets something other than QUEUE_ORDERED_NONE since commit 99360b4c18f7675b50d283301d46d755affe75fd but notes in the comments that it is otherwise meaningless).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch restores stacking ability to the block layer integrity infrastructure by creating a set of dedicated bip slabs. Each bip slab has an embedded bio_vec array at the end. This cuts down on memory allocations and also simplifies the code compared to the original bvec version. Only the largest bip slab is backed by a mempool. The pool is contained in the bio_set so stacking drivers can ensure forward progress. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setup an emergency fallback cfqq that we allocate at IO scheduler init time. If the slab allocation fails in cfq_find_alloc_queue(), we'll just punt IO to that cfqq instead. This ensures that cfq_find_alloc_queue() never fails without having to ensure free memory. On cfqq lookup, always try to allocate a new cfqq if the given cfq io context has the oom_cfqq assigned. This ensures that we only temporarily punt to this shared queue.
