      dm raid: introduce extended superblock and new raid types to support takeover/reshaping · 33e53f06
      Heinz Mauelshagen authored
      Add new members to the dm-raid superblock and new raid types to support
      takeover/reshape.
      
      Add all necessary members needed to support takeover and reshape in one
      go -- aiming to limit the amount of changes to the superblock layout.
      
      This is a larger patch due to the new superblock members, their related
      flags, validation of both and involved API additions/changes:
      
       - add additional members to keep track of:
         - state about forward/backward reshaping
         - reshape position
         - new level, layout, stripe size and delta disks
         - data offset to current and new data for out-of-place reshapes
         - failed devices bitfield extensions to keep track of max raid devices
      
       - adjust super_validate() to cope with new superblock members
      
       - adjust super_init_validation() to cope with new superblock members
      
       - add definitions for ctr flags supporting delta disks etc.
      
       - add new raid types (raid6_n_6 etc.)
      
       - add new raid10 supporting function API (_is_raid10_*())
      
       - adjust to changed raid10 supporting function API

      dm mpath: add optional "queue_mode" feature · e83068a5
      Mike Snitzer authored
      Allow a user to specify an optional feature 'queue_mode <mode>' where
      <mode> may be "bio", "rq" or "mq" -- which corresponds to bio-based,
      request_fn rq-based, and blk-mq rq-based respectively.
      
      If the queue_mode feature isn't specified the default for the
      "multipath" target is still "rq" but if dm_mod.use_blk_mq is set to Y
      it'll default to mode "mq".
      
      This new queue_mode feature introduces the ability for each multipath
      device to have its own queue_mode (whereas before this feature all
      multipath devices effectively had to have the same queue_mode).
      
      This commit also goes a long way to eliminate the awkward (ab)use of
      DM_TYPE_*, the associated filter_md_type() and other relatively fragile
      and difficult to maintain code.

      dm mpath: reinstate bio-based support · 76e33fe4
      Mike Snitzer authored
      Add "multipath-bio" target that offers a bio-based multipath target as
      an alternative to the request-based "multipath" target -- but in a
      following commit "multipath-bio" will immediately be replaced by a new
      "queue_mode" feature for the "multipath" target which will allow
      bio-based mode to be selected.
      
      When DM multipath was originally converted from bio-based to
      request-based the motivation for the change was better dynamic load
      balancing (by leveraging block core's request-based IO schedulers, for
      merging and sorting, _before_ DM multipath would make the decision on
      where to steer the IO -- based on path load and/or availability).
      
      More background is available in this "Request-based Device-mapper
      multipath and Dynamic load balancing" paper:
      https://www.kernel.org/doc/ols/2007/ols2007v2-pages-235-244.pdf
      
      But we've now come full circle where significantly faster storage
      devices no longer need IOs to be made larger to drive optimal IO
      performance.  And even if they do there have been changes to the block
      and filesystem layers that help ensure upper layers are constructing
      larger IOs.  In addition, SCSI's differentiated IO errors will propagate
      through to bio-based IO completion hooks -- so that eliminates another
      historic justiciation for request-based DM multipath.  Lastly, the block
      layer's immutable biovec changes have made bio cloning cheaper than it
      has ever been; whereas request cloning is still relatively expensive
      (both on a CPU usage and memory footprint level).
      
      As such, bio-based DM multipath offers the promise of a more efficient
      IO path for high IOPs devices that are, or will be, emerging.

      block: bio: kill BIO_MAX_SIZE · 1a89694f
      Ming Lei authored
      No one need this macro now, so remove it. Basically
      only how many bvecs in one bio matters instead
      of how many bytes in this bio.
      
      The motivation is for supporting multipage bvecs, in
      which we only know what the max count of bvecs is supported

      cfq-iosched: temporarily boost queue priority for idle classes · b8269db4
      Jens Axboe authored
      If we're queuing REQ_PRIO IO and the task is running at an idle IO
      class, then temporarily boost the priority. This prevents livelocks
      due to priority inversion, when a low priority task is holding file
      system resources while attempting to do IO.
      
      An example of that is shown below. An ioniced idle task is holding
      the directory mutex, while a normal priority task is trying to do
      a directory lookup.

      If ->queue_rq() returns BLK_MQ_RQ_QUEUE_OK, we use continue and skip
      over the rest of the loop body. However, dptr is assigned later in the
      loop body, and the BLK_MQ_RQ_QUEUE_OK case is exactly the case that we'd
      want it for.
      
      NVMe isn't actually using BLK_MQ_F_DEFER_ISSUE yet, nor is any other
      in-tree driver, but if the code's going to be there, it might as well
      work.
      
      Fixes: 74c45052 ("blk-mq: add a 'list' parameter to ->queue_rq()")
