The code to stack blk-mq drivers is only used by dm-multipath, and
will preferably stay that way. Make it optional and only selected
by device mapper, so that the buildbots more easily catch abuses
like the one that slipped in in the ufs driver in the last merged

device mapper shrink a little bit as well.

Blk-crypto delegates crypto operations to inline encryption hardware
when available. The separately configurable blk-crypto-fallback contains
a software fallback to the kernel crypto API - when enabled, blk-crypto
will use this fallback for en/decryption when inline encryption hardware
is not available.
This lets upper layers not have to worry about whether or not the
underlying device has support for inline encryption before deciding to
specify an encryption context for a bio. It also allows for testing
without actual inline encryption hardware - in particular, it makes it
possible to test the inline encryption code in ext4 and f2fs simply by
running xfstests with the inlinecrypt mount option, which in turn allows
for things like the regular upstream regression testing of ext4 to cover
the inline encryption code paths.

Inline Encryption hardware allows software to specify an encryption context
(an encryption key, crypto algorithm, data unit num, data unit size) along
with a data transfer request to a storage device, and the inline encryption
hardware will use that context to en/decrypt the data. The inline
encryption hardware is part of the storage device, and it conceptually sits
on the data path between system memory and the storage device.
Inline Encryption hardware implementations often function around the
concept of "keyslots". These implementations often have a limited number
of "keyslots", each of which can hold a key (we say that a key can be
"programmed" into a keyslot). Requests made to the storage device may have
a keyslot and a data unit number associated with them, and the inline
encryption hardware will en/decrypt the data in the requests using the key
programmed into that associated keyslot and the data unit number specified
with the request.
As keyslots are limited, and programming keys may be expensive in many
implementations, and multiple requests may use exactly the same encryption
contexts, we introduce a Keyslot Manager to efficiently manage keyslots.
We also introduce a blk_crypto_key, which will represent the key that's
programmed into keyslots managed by keyslot managers. The keyslot manager
also functions as the interface that upper layers will use to program keys
into inline encryption hardware. For more information on the Keyslot
Manager, refer to documentation found in block/keyslot-manager.c and
linux/keyslot-manager.h.

On each IO completion, iocost decides whether the IO met or missed its latency
target. Currently, the targets are fixed numbers per IO type. While this can be
good enough for loose latency targets way higher than typical completion
latencies, the effect of IO size makes it difficult to tighten the latency
target - a target adequate for 4k IOs might be too tight for 512k IOs and
vice-versa.
iocost already has all the necessary information to account for different IO
sizes when testing whether the latency target is met as iocost can calculate the
size vtime cost of a given IO. This patch updates the completion path to
calculate the size vtime cost of the IO, deduct the nsec equivalent from the
observed latency and use the adjusted value to decide whether the target is met.
This makes latency targets independent from IO size and enables determining
adequate latency targets with fixed size fio runs.

This patchset implements IO cost model based work-conserving
proportional controller.
While io.latency provides the capability to comprehensively prioritize
and protect IOs depending on the cgroups, its protection is binary -
the lowest latency target cgroup which is suffering is protected at
the cost of all others. In many use cases including stacking multiple
workload containers in a single system, it's necessary to distribute
IO capacity with better granularity.
One challenge of controlling IO resources is the lack of trivially
observable cost metric. The most common metrics - bandwidth and iops
- can be off by orders of magnitude depending on the device type and
IO pattern. However, the cost isn't a complete mystery. Given
several key attributes, we can make fairly reliable predictions on how
expensive a given stream of IOs would be, at least compared to other
IO patterns.
The function which determines the cost of a given IO is the IO cost
model for the device. This controller distributes IO capacity based
on the costs estimated by such model. The more accurate the cost
model the better but the controller adapts based on IO completion
latency and as long as the relative costs across differents IO
patterns are consistent and sensible, it'll adapt to the actual
performance of the device.
Currently, the only implemented cost model is a simple linear one with
a few sets of default parameters for different classes of device.
This covers most common devices reasonably well. All the
infrastructure to tune and add different cost models is already in
place and a later patch will also allow using bpf progs for cost
models.
Please see the top comment in blk-iocost.c and documentation for
more details.

There are currently two start time timestamps - start_time_ns and
io_start_time_ns. The former marks the request allocation and and the
second issue-to-device time. The planned io.weight controller needs
to measure the total time bios take to execute after it leaves rq_qos
including the time spent waiting for request to become available,
which can easily dominate on saturated devices.
This patch adds request->alloc_time_ns which records when the request
allocation attempt started. As it isn't used for the usual stats,
make it optional behind CONFIG_BLK_RQ_ALLOC_TIME and
QUEUE_FLAG_RQ_ALLOC_TIME so that it can be compiled out when there are
no users and it's active only on queues which need it even when
compiled in.

...
The Kconfig lexer supports special characters such as '.' and '/' in
the parameter context. In my understanding, the reason is just to
support bare file paths in the source statement.
I do not see a good reason to complicate Kconfig for the room of
ambiguity.
The majority of code already surrounds file paths with double quotes,
and it makes sense since file paths are constant string literals.
Make it treewide consistent now.

'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.

Move the code for runtime power management from blk-core.c into the
new source file blk-pm.c. Move the corresponding declarations from
<linux/blkdev.h> into <linux/blk-pm.h>. For CONFIG_PM=n, leave out
the declarations of the functions that are not used in that mode.
This patch not only reduces the number of #ifdefs in the block layer
core code but also reduces the size of header file <linux/blkdev.h>
and hence should help to reduce the build time of the Linux kernel
if CONFIG_PM is not defined.

Current IO controllers for the block layer are less than ideal for our
use case. The io.max controller is great at hard limiting, but it is
not work conserving. This patch introduces io.latency. You provide a
latency target for your group and we monitor the io in short windows to
make sure we are not exceeding those latency targets. This makes use of
the rq-qos infrastructure and works much like the wbt stuff. There are
a few differences from wbt
- It's bio based, so the latency covers the whole block layer in addition to
the actual io.
- We will throttle all IO types that comes in here if we need to.
- We use the mean latency over the 100ms window. This is because writes can
be particularly fast, which could give us a false sense of the impact of
other workloads on our protected workload.
- By default there's no throttling, we set the queue_depth to INT_MAX so that
we can have as many outstanding bio's as we're allowed to. Only at
throttle time do we pay attention to the actual queue depth.
- We backcharge cgroups for root cg issued IO and induce artificial
delays in order to deal with cases like metadata only or swap heavy
workloads.
In testing this has worked out relatively well. Protected workloads
will throttle noisy workloads down to 1 io at time if they are doing
normal IO on their own, or induce up to a 1 second delay per syscall if
they are doing a lot of root issued IO (metadata/swap IO).
Our testing has revolved mostly around our production web servers where
we have hhvm (the web server application) in a protected group and
everything else in another group. We see slightly higher requests per
second (RPS) on the test tier vs the control tier, and much more stable
RPS across all machines in the test tier vs the control tier.
Another test we run is a slow memory allocator in the unprotected group.
Before this would eventually push us into swap and cause the whole box
to die and not recover at all. With these patches we see slight RPS
drops (usually 10-15%) before the memory consumer is properly killed and
things recover within seconds.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"Incremental fixes and a small feature addition on top of the main
libnvdimm 4.12 pull request:
- Geert noticed that tinyconfig was bloated by BLOCK selecting DAX.
The size regression is fixed by moving all dax helpers into the
dax-core and only specifying "select DAX" for FS_DAX and
dax-capable drivers. He also asked for clarification of the
NR_DEV_DAX config option which, on closer look, does not need to be
a config option at all. Mike also throws in a DEV_DAX_PMEM fixup
for good measure.
- Ben's attention to detail on -stable patch submissions caught a
case where the recent fixes to arch_copy_from_iter_pmem() missed a
condition where we strand dirty data in the cache. This is tagged
for -stable and will also be included in the rework of the pmem api
to a proposed {memcpy,copy_user}_flushcache() interface for 4.13.
- Vishal adds a feature that missed the initial pull due to pending
review feedback. It allows the kernel to clear media errors when
initializing a BTT (atomic sector update driver) instance on a pmem
namespace.
- Ross noticed that the dax_device + dax_operations conversion broke
__dax_zero_page_range(). The nvdimm unit tests fail to check this
path, but xfstests immediately trips over it. No excuse for missing
this before submitting the 4.12 pull request.
These all pass the nvdimm unit tests and an xfstests spot check. The
set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot"
* 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm:
filesystem-dax: fix broken __dax_zero_page_range() conversion
libnvdimm, btt: ensure that initializing metadata clears poison
libnvdimm: add an atomic vs process context flag to rw_bytes
x86, pmem: Fix cache flushing for iovec write < 8 bytes
device-dax: kill NR_DEV_DAX
block, dax: move "select DAX" from BLOCK to FS_DAX
device-dax: Tell kbuild DEV_DAX_PMEM depends on DEV_DAX
For configurations that do not enable DAX filesystems or drivers, do not
require the DAX core to be built.
Given that the 'direct_access' method has been removed from
'block_device_operations', we can also go ahead and remove the
block-related dax helper functions from fs/block_dev.c to
drivers/dax/super.c. This keeps dax details out of the block layer and
lets the DAX core be built as a module in the FS_DAX=n case.
Filesystems need to include dax.h to call bdev_dax_supported().

Given that block device partitioning decisions can cause dax page
alignment constraints to be violated this also introduces the
bdev_dax_pgoff() helper. It handles calculating a logical pgoff relative
to the dax_device and also checks for page alignment.

Pull vhost updates from Michael Tsirkin:
"virtio, vhost: optimizations, fixes
Looks like a quiet cycle for vhost/virtio, just a couple of minor
tweaks. Most notable is automatic interrupt affinity for blk and scsi.
Hopefully other devices are not far behind"
* tag 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost:
virtio-console: avoid DMA from stack
vhost: introduce O(1) vq metadata cache
virtio_scsi: use virtio IRQ affinity
virtio_blk: use virtio IRQ affinity
blk-mq: provide a default queue mapping for virtio device
virtio: provide a method to get the IRQ affinity mask for a virtqueue
virtio: allow drivers to request IRQ affinity when creating VQs
virtio_pci: simplify MSI-X setup
virtio_pci: don't duplicate the msix_enable flag in struct pci_dev
virtio_pci: use shared interrupts for virtqueues
virtio_pci: remove struct virtio_pci_vq_info
vhost: try avoiding avail index access when getting descriptor
