292a089d78 treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()
Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.

The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
the timer->function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.

This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
commands:

    $ cat timer.cocci
    @@
    expression ptr, slab;
    identifier timer, rfield;
    @@
    (
    -       del_timer(&ptr->timer);
    +       timer_shutdown(&ptr->timer);
    |
    -       del_timer_sync(&ptr->timer);
    +       timer_shutdown_sync(&ptr->timer);
    )
      ... when strict
          when != ptr->timer

4d337cebcb blk-mq: avoid to touch q->elevator without any protection
q->elevator is referred in blk_mq_has_sqsched() without any protection,
no .q_usage_counter is held, no queue srcu and rcu read lock is held,
so potential use-after-free may be triggered.

Fix the issue by adding one queue flag for checking if the elevator
uses single queue style dispatch. Meantime the elevator feature flag
of ELEVATOR_F_MQ_AWARE isn't needed any more.

68497092bd block: make queue stat accounting a reference
kyber turns on IO statistics when it is loaded on a queue, which means
that even if kyber is then later unloaded, we're still stuck with stats
enabled on the queue.

Change the account enabled from a bool to an int, and pair the enable call
with the equivalent disable call. This ensures that stats gets turned off
again appropriately.

efed9a3337 kyber: fix out of bounds access when preempted
__blk_mq_sched_bio_merge() gets the ctx and hctx for the current CPU and
passes the hctx to ->bio_merge(). kyber_bio_merge() then gets the ctx
for the current CPU again and uses that to get the corresponding Kyber
context in the passed hctx. However, the thread may be preempted between
the two calls to blk_mq_get_ctx(), and the ctx returned the second time
may no longer correspond to the passed hctx. This "works" accidentally
most of the time, but it can cause us to read garbage if the second ctx
came from an hctx with more ctx's than the first one (i.e., if
ctx->index_hw[hctx->type] > hctx->nr_ctx).

This manifested as this UBSAN array index out of bounds error reported
by Jakub:

c548e62bcf scsi: sbitmap: Move allocation hint into sbitmap
Allocation hint should have belonged to sbitmap. Also, when sbitmap's depth
is high and there is no need to use mulitple wakeup queues, user can
benefit from percpu allocation hint too.

Move allocation hint into sbitmap, then SCSI device queue can benefit from
allocation hint when converting to plain sbitmap.

Convert vhost/scsi.c to use sbitmap allocation with percpu alloc hint. This
is more efficient than the previous approach.

ffa772cfe9 kyber: introduce kyber_depth_updated()
Hang occurs when user changes the scheduler queue depth, by writing to
the 'nr_requests' sysfs file of that device.

The details of the environment that we found the problem are as follows:
  an eMMC block device
  total driver tags: 16
  default queue_depth: 32
  kqd->async_depth initialized in kyber_init_sched() with queue_depth=32

Then we change queue_depth to 256, by writing to the 'nr_requests' sysfs
file. But kqd->async_depth don't be updated after queue_depth changes.
Now the value of async depth is too small for queue_depth=256, this may
cause hang.

This patch introduces kyber_depth_updated(), so that kyber can update
async depth when queue depth changes.

b6e68ee825 blk-mq: Improve performance of non-mq IO schedulers with multiple HW queues
Currently when non-mq aware IO scheduler (BFQ, mq-deadline) is used for
a queue with multiple HW queues, the performance it rather bad. The
problem is that these IO schedulers use queue-wide locking and their
dispatch function does not respect the hctx it is passed in and returns
any request it finds appropriate. Thus locality of request access is
broken and dispatch from multiple CPUs just contends on IO scheduler
locks. For these IO schedulers there's little point in dispatching from
multiple CPUs. Instead dispatch always only from a single CPU to limit
contention.

Below is a comparison of dbench runs on XFS filesystem where the storage
is a raid card with 64 HW queues and to it attached a single rotating
disk. BFQ is used as IO scheduler:

      clients           MQ                     SQ             MQ-Patched
Amean 1      39.12 (0.00%)       43.29 * -10.67%*       36.09 *   7.74%*
Amean 2     128.58 (0.00%)      101.30 *  21.22%*       96.14 *  25.23%*
Amean 4     577.42 (0.00%)      494.47 *  14.37%*      508.49 *  11.94%*
Amean 8     610.95 (0.00%)      363.86 *  40.44%*      362.12 *  40.73%*
Amean 16    391.78 (0.00%)      261.49 *  33.25%*      282.94 *  27.78%*
Amean 32    324.64 (0.00%)      267.71 *  17.54%*      233.00 *  28.23%*
Amean 64    295.04 (0.00%)      253.02 *  14.24%*      242.37 *  17.85%*
Amean 512 10281.61 (0.00%)    10211.16 *   0.69%*    10447.53 *  -1.61%*

Numbers are times so lower is better. MQ is stock 5.10-rc6 kernel. SQ is
the same kernel with megaraid_sas.host_tagset_enable=0 so that the card
advertises just a single HW queue. MQ-Patched is a kernel with this
patch applied.

You can see multiple hardware queues heavily hurt performance in
combination with BFQ. The patch restores the performance.

f0a0cdddb1 kyber: fix integer overflow of latency targets on 32-bit
NSEC_PER_SEC has type long, so 5 * NSEC_PER_SEC is calculated as a long.
However, 5 seconds is 5,000,000,000 nanoseconds, which overflows a
32-bit long. Make sure all of the targets are calculated as 64-bit
values.

6c3b7af1c9 kyber: add tracepoints
When debugging Kyber, it's really useful to know what latencies we've
been having, how the domain depths have been adjusted, and if we've
actually been throttling. Add three tracepoints, kyber_latency,
kyber_adjust, and kyber_throttled, to record that.

6e25cb01ea kyber: implement improved heuristics
Kyber's current heuristics have a few flaws:

- It's based on the mean latency, but p99 latency tends to be more
  meaningful to anyone who cares about latency. The mean can also be
  skewed by rare outliers that the scheduler can't do anything about.
- The statistics calculations are purely time-based with a short window.
  This works for steady, high load, but is more sensitive to outliers
  with bursty workloads.
- It only considers the latency once an I/O has been submitted to the
  device, but the user cares about the time spent in the kernel, as
  well.

These are shortcomings of the generic blk-stat code which doesn't quite
fit the ideal use case for Kyber. So, this replaces the statistics with
a histogram used to calculate percentiles of total latency and I/O
latency, which we then use to adjust depths in a slightly more
intelligent manner:

- Sync and async writes are now the same domain.
- Discards are a separate domain.
- Domain queue depths are scaled by the ratio of the p99 total latency
  to the target latency (e.g., if the p99 latency is double the target
  latency, we will double the queue depth; if the p99 latency is half of
  the target latency, we can halve the queue depth).
- We use the I/O latency to determine whether we should scale queue
  depths down: we will only scale down if any domain's I/O latency
  exceeds the target latency, which is an indicator of congestion in the
  device.

These new heuristics are just as scalable as the heuristics they
replace.

fa2a1f609e kyber: don't make domain token sbitmap larger than necessary
The domain token sbitmaps are currently initialized to the device queue
depth or 256, whichever is larger, and immediately resized to the
maximum depth for that domain (256, 128, or 64 for read, write, and
other, respectively). The sbitmap is never resized larger than that, so
it's unnecessary to allocate a bitmap larger than the maximum depth.
Let's just allocate it to the maximum depth to begin with. This will use
marginally less memory, and more importantly, give us a more appropriate
number of bits per sbitmap word.

a6088845c2 block: kyber: make kyber more friendly with merging
Currently, kyber is very unfriendly with merging. kyber depends
on ctx rq_list to do merging, however, most of time, it will not
leave any requests in ctx rq_list. This is because even if tokens
of one domain is used up, kyber will try to dispatch requests
from other domain and flush the rq_list there.

To improve this, we setup kyber_ctx_queue (kcq) which is similar
with ctx, but it has rq_lists for different domain and build same
mapping between kcq and khd as the ctx & hctx. Then we could merge,
insert and dispatch for different domains separately. At the same
time, only flush the rq_list of kcq when get domain token successfully.
Then if one domain token is used up, the requests could be left in
the rq_list of that domain and maybe merged with following io.

Following is my test result on machine with 8 cores and NVMe card

fcf38cdf33 kyber: fix another domain token wait queue hang
Commit 8cf4666020 ("kyber: fix hang on domain token wait queue") fixed
a hang caused by leaving wait entries on the domain token wait queue
after the __sbitmap_queue_get() retry succeeded, making that wait entry
a "dud" which won't in turn wake more entries up. However, we can also
get a dud entry if kyber_get_domain_token() fails once but is then
called again and succeeds. This can happen if the hardware queue is
rerun for some other reason, or, more likely, kyber_dispatch_request()
tries the same domain twice.

The fix is to remove our entry from the wait queue whenever we
successfully get a token. The only complication is that we might be on
one of many wait queues in the struct sbitmap_queue, but that's easily
fixed by remembering which wait queue we were put on.

While we're here, only initialize the wait queue entry once instead of
on every wait, and use spin_lock_irq() instead of spin_lock_irqsave(),
since this is always called from process context with irqs enabled.

8cf4666020 kyber: fix hang on domain token wait queue
When we're getting a domain token, if we fail to get a token on our
first attempt, we put the current hardware queue on a wait queue and
then try again just in case a token was freed after our initial attempt
but before we got on the wait queue. If this second attempt succeeds, we
currently leave the hardware queue on the wait queue. Usually this is
okay; we'll just run the hardware queue one extra time when another
token is freed. However, if the hardware queue doesn't have any other
requests waiting, then when it it gets the extra wakeup, it won't have
anything to free and therefore won't wake up any other hardware queues.
If tokens are limited, then we won't make forward progress and the
device will hang.

2055da9738 sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry->task_list and wq_head->task_list naming
So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the
code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry.

Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are
not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case
the 'task_list' name is actively confusing.

To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure
fields unambiguously:

	struct wait_queue_head::task_list	=> ::head
	struct wait_queue_entry::task_list	=> ::entry

For example, this code:

	rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list

... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way:

	rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry

... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head.

Other examples are:

	list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) {
	list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) {

... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's
hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be
a bug), while now it's written as:

	list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) {
	list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) {

ac6424b981 sched/wait: Rename wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t
Rename:

	wait_queue_t		=>	wait_queue_entry_t

'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
which had to carry the name.

Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.

This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

5bbf4e5a8e blk-mq-sched: unify request prepare methods
This patch makes sure we always allocate requests in the core blk-mq
code and use a common prepare_request method to initialize them for
both mq I/O schedulers.  For Kyber and additional limit_depth method
is added that is called before allocating the request.

Also because none of the intializations can really fail the new method
does not return an error - instead the bfq finish method is hardened
to deal with the no-IOC case.

Last but not least this removes the abuse of RQF_QUEUE by the blk-mq
scheduling code as RQF_ELFPRIV is all that is needed now.

00e043936e blk-mq: introduce Kyber multiqueue I/O scheduler
The Kyber I/O scheduler is an I/O scheduler for fast devices designed to
scale to multiple queues. Users configure only two knobs, the target
read and synchronous write latencies, and the scheduler tunes itself to
achieve that latency goal.

The implementation is based on "tokens", built on top of the scalable
bitmap library. Tokens serve as a mechanism for limiting requests. There
are two tiers of tokens: queueing tokens and dispatch tokens.

A queueing token is required to allocate a request. In fact, these
tokens are actually the blk-mq internal scheduler tags, but the
scheduler manages the allocation directly in order to implement its
policy.

Dispatch tokens are device-wide and split up into two scheduling
domains: reads vs. writes. Each hardware queue dispatches batches
round-robin between the scheduling domains as long as tokens are
available for that domain.

These tokens can be used as the mechanism to enable various policies.
The policy Kyber uses is inspired by active queue management techniques
for network routing, similar to blk-wbt. The scheduler monitors
latencies and scales the number of dispatch tokens accordingly. Queueing
tokens are used to prevent starvation of synchronous requests by
asynchronous requests.

Various extensions are possible, including better heuristics and ionice
support. The new scheduler isn't set as the default yet.
