I encountered a hung task issue, but not a performance one. I run DIO
on a device (need lba continuous, for example open channel ssd), maybe
hungtask in below case:
DIO: Checkpoint:
get addr A(at boundary), merge into BIO,
no submit because boundary missing
flush dirty data(get addr A+1), wait IO(A+1)
writeback timeout, because DIO(A) didn't submit
get addr A+2 fail, because checkpoint is doing
dio_send_cur_page() may clear sdio->boundary, so prevent it from missing
a boundary.

Direct IO does not operate on the current working set of pages managed
by the kernel, so it should not be accounted as memory stall to PSI
infrastructure.
The block layer and iomap direct IO use bio_iov_iter_get_pages()
to build bios, and they are the only users of it, so to avoid PSI
tracking for them clear out BIO_WORKINGSET flag. Do same for
dio_bio_submit() because fs/direct_io constructs bios by hand directly
calling bio_add_page().

Merge tag 'dio_for_v5.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs
Pull direct-io fix from Jan Kara:
"Fix for unaligned direct IO read past EOF in legacy DIO code"
* tag 'dio_for_v5.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs:
direct-io: defer alignment check until after the EOF check
direct-io: don't force writeback for reads beyond EOF
direct-io: clean up error paths of do_blockdev_direct_IO
Prior to commit 9fe55eea7e ("Fix race when checking i_size on direct
i/o read"), an unaligned direct read past end of file would trigger EOF,
since generic_file_aio_read detected this read-at-EOF condition and
skipped the direct IO read entirely, returning 0. After that change, the
read now reaches dio_generic, which detects the misalignment and returns
EINVAL.
This consolidates the generic direct-io to follow the same behavior of
filesystems. Apparently, this fix will only affect ocfs2 since other
filesystems do this verification before calling do_blockdev_direct_IO,
with the exception of f2fs, which has the same bug, but is fixed in the
next patch.
it can be verified by a read loop on a file that does a partial read
before EOF (On file that doesn't end at an aligned address). The
following code fails on an unaligned file on filesystems without
prior validation without this patch, but not on btrfs, ext4, and xfs.
while (done < total) {
ssize_t delta = pread(fd, buf + done, total - done, off + done);
if (!delta)
break;
...
}
Fix this regression by moving the misalignment check to after the EOF
check added by commit 74cedf9b6c ("direct-io: Fix negative return from
dio read beyond eof").
Based on a patch by Jamie Liu.

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"Highlights:
- speedup dead root detection during orphan cleanup, eg. when there
are many deleted subvolumes waiting to be cleaned, the trees are
now looked up in radix tree instead of a O(N^2) search
- snapshot creation with inherited qgroup will mark the qgroup
inconsistent, requires a rescan
- send will emit file capabilities after chown, this produces a
stream that does not need postprocessing to set the capabilities
again
- direct io ported to iomap infrastructure, cleaned up and simplified
code, notably removing last use of struct buffer_head in btrfs code
Core changes:
- factor out backreference iteration, to be used by ordinary
backreferences and relocation code
- improved global block reserve utilization
* better logic to serialize requests
* increased maximum available for unlink
* improved handling on large pages (64K)
- direct io cleanups and fixes
* simplify layering, where cloned bios were unnecessarily created
for some cases
* error handling fixes (submit, endio)
* remove repair worker thread, used to avoid deadlocks during
repair
- refactored block group reading code, preparatory work for new type
of block group storage that should improve mount time on large
filesystems
Cleanups:
- cleaned up (and slightly sped up) set/get helpers for metadata data
structure members
- root bit REF_COWS got renamed to SHAREABLE to reflect the that the
blocks of the tree get shared either among subvolumes or with the
relocation trees
Fixes:
- when subvolume deletion fails due to ENOSPC, the filesystem is not
turned read-only
- device scan deals with devices from other filesystems that changed
ownership due to overwrite (mkfs)
- fix a race between scrub and block group removal/allocation
- fix long standing bug of a runaway balance operation, printing the
same line to the syslog, caused by a stale status bit on a reloc
tree that prevented progress
- fix corrupt log due to concurrent fsync of inodes with shared
extents
- fix space underflow for NODATACOW and buffered writes when it for
some reason needs to fallback to COW mode"

On a DIO_SKIP_HOLES filesystem, the ->get_block() method is currently
not allowed to create blocks for an empty inode. This confusion comes
from trying to bit shift a negative number, so check the size of the
inode first.
The problem is most visible for hfsplus, because the fallback to
buffered I/O doesn't happen and the write fails with EIO. This is in
part the fault of the module, because it gives a wrong return value on
->get_block(); that will be fixed in a separate patch.

commit e259221763 ("fs: simplify the
generic_write_sync prototype") reworked callers of generic_write_sync(),
and ended up dropping the error return for the directio path. Prior to
that commit, in dio_complete(), an error would be bubbled up the stack,
but after that commit, errors passed on to dio_complete were eaten up.
This was reported on the list earlier, and a fix was proposed in
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20160921141539.GA17898@infradead.org/, but
never followed up with. We recently hit this bug in our testing where
fencing io errors, which were previously erroring out with EIO, were
being returned as success operations after this commit.
The fix proposed on the list earlier was a little short -- it would have
still called generic_write_sync() in case `ret` already contained an
error. This fix ensures generic_write_sync() is only called when there's
no pending error in the write. Additionally, transferred is replaced
with ret to bring this code in line with other callers.

blk_poll() has always kept spinning until it found an IO. This is
fine for SYNC polling, since we need to find one request we have
pending, but in preparation for ASYNC polling it can be beneficial
to just check if we have any entries available or not.
Existing callers are converted to pass in 'spin == true', to retain
the old behavior.

Commit e864f39569 "fs: add RWF_DSYNC aand RWF_SYNC" added additional
way for direct IO to become synchronous and thus trigger fsync from the
IO completion handler. Then commit 9830f4be15 "fs: Use RWF_* flags for
AIO operations" allowed these flags to be set for AIO as well. However
that commit forgot to update the condition checking whether the IO
completion handling should be defered to a workqueue and thus AIO DIO
with RWF_[D]SYNC set will call fsync() from IRQ context resulting in
sleep in atomic.
Fix the problem by checking directly iocb flags (the same way as it is
done in dio_complete()) instead of checking all conditions that could
lead to IO being synchronous.

If two programs simultaneously try to write to the same part of a file
via direct IO and buffered IO, there's a chance that the post-diowrite
pagecache invalidation will fail on the dirty page. When this happens,
the dio write succeeded, which means that the page cache is no longer
coherent with the disk!
Programs are not supposed to mix IO types and this is a clear case of
data corruption, so store an EIO which will be reflected to userspace
during the next fsync. Replace the WARN_ON with a ratelimited pr_crit
so that the developers have /some/ kind of breadcrumb to track down the
offending program(s) and file(s) involved.

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

fs: Avoid invalidation in interrupt context in dio_complete()
nbd: don't set the device size until we're connected
skd: Use kmem_cache_free
Currently we try to defer completion of async DIO to the process context
in case there are any mapped pages associated with the inode so that we
can invalidate the pages when the IO completes. However the check is racy
and the pages can be mapped afterwards. If this happens we might end up
calling invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in dio_complete() in interrupt
context which could sleep. This can be reproduced by generic/451.
Fix this by passing the information whether we can or can't invalidate
to the dio_complete(). Thanks Eryu Guan for reporting this and Jan Kara
for suggesting a fix.

Commit 332391a993 ("fs: Fix page cache inconsistency when mixing
buffered and AIO DIO") moved page cache invalidation from
iomap_dio_rw() to iomap_dio_complete() for iomap based direct write
path, but before the dio->end_io() call, and it re-introdued the bug
fixed by commit c771c14baa ("iomap: invalidate page caches should
be after iomap_dio_complete() in direct write").
I found this because fstests generic/418 started failing on XFS with
v4.14-rc3 kernel, which is the regression test for this specific
bug.
So similarly, fix it by moving dio->end_io() (which does the
unwritten extent conversion) before page cache invalidation, to make
sure next buffer read reads the final real allocations not unwritten
extents. I also add some comments about why should end_io() go first
in case we get it wrong again in the future.
Note that, there's no such problem in the non-iomap based direct
write path, because we didn't remove the page cache invalidation
after the ->direct_IO() in generic_file_direct_write() call, but I
decided to fix dio_complete() too so we don't leave a landmine
there, also be consistent with iomap_dio_complete().

Currently when mixing buffered reads and asynchronous direct writes it
is possible to end up with the situation where we have stale data in the
page cache while the new data is already written to disk. This is
permanent until the affected pages are flushed away. Despite the fact
that mixing buffered and direct IO is ill-advised it does pose a thread
for a data integrity, is unexpected and should be fixed.
Fix this by deferring completion of asynchronous direct writes to a
process context in the case that there are mapped pages to be found in
the inode. Later before the completion in dio_complete() invalidate
the pages in question. This ensures that after the completion the pages
in the written area are either unmapped, or populated with up-to-date
data. Also do the same for the iomap case which uses
iomap_dio_complete() instead.
This has a side effect of deferring the completion to a process context
for every AIO DIO that happens on inode that has pages mapped. However
since the consensus is that this is ill-advised practice the performance
implication should not be a problem.
This was based on proposal from Jeff Moyer, thanks!

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

A new bio operation flag REQ_NOWAIT is introduced to identify bio's

to return immediately if a request cannot be made instead
of retrying.
Stacked devices such as md (the ones with make_request_fn hooks)
currently are not supported because it may block for housekeeping.
For example, an md can have a part of the device suspended.
For this reason, only request based devices are supported.
In the future, this feature will be expanded to stacked devices
by teaching them how to handle the REQ_NOWAIT flags.
