When zone reset ioctl and data read race for a same zone on zoned block
devices, the data read leaves stale page cache even though the zone
reset ioctl zero clears all the zone data on the device. To avoid
non-zero data read from the stale page cache after zone reset, discard
page cache of reset target zones in blkdev_zone_mgmt_ioctl(). Introduce
the helper function blkdev_truncate_zone_range() to discard the page
cache. Ensure the page cache discarded by calling the helper function
before and after zone reset in same manner as fallocate does.
This patch can be applied back to the stable kernel version v5.10.y.
Rework is needed for older stable kernels.

SCSI uses a global atomic variable to track queue depth for each
LUN/request queue.
This doesn't scale well when there are lots of CPU cores and the disk is
very fast. It has been observed that IOPS is affected a lot by tracking
queue depth via sdev->device_busy in the I/O path.
Return budget token from .get_budget callback. The budget token can be
passed to driver so that we can replace the atomic variable with
sbitmap_queue and alleviate the scaling problems that way.

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.

The ramdisk device has logical_block_size 512 and max_sectors 255. The
dm-integrity device uses logical_block_size 4096 and it doesn't affect the
"max_sectors" value - thus, it inherits 255 from the ramdisk. So, we have
a device with max_sectors not aligned on logical_block_size.
The md-raid device sees that the underlying leg has max_sectors 255 and it
will split the bios on 255-sector boundary, making the bios unaligned on
logical_block_size.
In order to fix the bug, we round down max_sectors to logical_block_size.

When the ->revalidate method was removed this revalidation was lost,

reopening the device to rescan the partitions, and thus calling the

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.

QUEUE_FLAG_POLL flag will be cleared when turning off 'io_poll', while
at that moment there may be IOs stuck in hw queue uncompleted. The
following polling routine won't help reap these IOs, since blk_poll()
will return immediately because of cleared QUEUE_FLAG_POLL flag. Thus
these IOs will hang until they finnaly time out. The hang out can be
observed by 'fio --engine=io_uring iodepth=1', while turning off
'io_poll' at the same time.
To fix this, freeze and flush the request queue first when turning off
'io_poll'.

Commit a1ce35fa49 ("block: remove dead elevator code") removed the last
callers of blk_pm_requeue_request(), blk_pm_add_request() and
blk_pm_put_request(). Hence remove the definitions of these functions.
Removing these functions removes all users of the struct request nr_pending
member. Hence also remove 'nr_pending'. Note: 'nr_pending' is no longer
used since commit 7cedffec8e ("block: Make blk_get_request() block for
non-PM requests while suspended").

With llist_head it is possible to avoid the locking (the irq-off region)
when items are added. This makes it possible to add items on a remote
CPU without additional locking.
llist_add() returns true if the list was previously empty. This can be
used to invoke the SMP function call / raise sofirq only if the first
item was added (otherwise it is already pending).
This simplifies the code a little and reduces the IRQ-off regions.
blk_mq_raise_softirq() needs a preempt-disable section to ensure the
request is enqueued on the same CPU as the softirq is raised.
Some callers (USB-storage) invoke this path in preemptible context.

Introduce blk_ksm_update_capabilities() to update the capabilities of
a keyslot manager (ksm) in-place. The pointer to a ksm in a device's
request queue may not be easily replaced, because upper layers like
the filesystem might access it (e.g. for programming keys/checking
capabilities) at the same time the device wants to replace that
request queue's ksm (and free the old ksm's memory). This function
allows the device to update the capabilities of the ksm in its request
queue directly. Devices can safely update the ksm this way without any
synchronization with upper layers *only* if the updated (new) ksm
continues to support all the crypto capabilities that the old ksm did
(see description below for blk_ksm_is_superset() for why this is so).
Also introduce blk_ksm_is_superset() which checks whether one ksm's
capabilities are a (not necessarily strict) superset of another ksm's.
The blk-crypto framework requires that crypto capabilities that were
advertised when a bio was created continue to be supported by the
device until that bio is ended - in practice this probably means that
a device's advertised crypto capabilities can *never* "shrink" (since
there's no synchronization between bio creation and when a device may
want to change its advertised capabilities) - so a previously
advertised crypto capability must always continue to be supported.
This function can be used to check that a new ksm is a valid
replacement for an old ksm.

The device mapper may map over devices that have inline encryption
capabilities, and to make use of those capabilities, the DM device must
itself advertise those inline encryption capabilities. One way to do this
would be to have the DM device set up a keyslot manager with a
"sufficiently large" number of keyslots, but that would use a lot of
memory. Also, the DM device itself has no "keyslots", and it doesn't make
much sense to talk about "programming a key into a DM device's keyslot
manager", so all that extra memory used to represent those keyslots is just
wasted. All a DM device really needs to be able to do is advertise the
crypto capabilities of the underlying devices in a coherent manner and
expose a way to evict keys from the underlying devices.
There are also devices with inline encryption hardware that do not
have a limited number of keyslots. One can send a raw encryption key along
with a bio to these devices (as opposed to typical inline encryption
hardware that require users to first program a raw encryption key into a
keyslot, and send the index of that keyslot along with the bio). These
devices also only need the same things from the keyslot manager that DM
devices need - a way to advertise crypto capabilities and potentially a way
to expose a function to evict keys from hardware.
So we introduce a "passthrough" keyslot manager that provides a way to
represent a keyslot manager that doesn't have just a limited number of
keyslots, and for which do not require keys to be programmed into keyslots.
DM devices can set up a passthrough keyslot manager in their request
queues, and advertise appropriate crypto capabilities based on those of the
underlying devices. Blk-crypto does not attempt to program keys into any
keyslots in the passthrough keyslot manager. Instead, if/when the bio is
resubmitted to the underlying device, blk-crypto will try to program the
key into the underlying device's keyslot manager.

Per ZBC and ZAC specifications, host-managed SMR hard-disks mandate that
all writes into sequential write required zones be aligned to the device
physical block size. However, NVMe ZNS does not have this constraint and
allows write operations into sequential zones to be aligned to the
device logical block size. This inconsistency does not help with
software portability across device types.
To solve this, introduce the zone_write_granularity queue limit to
indicate the alignment constraint, in bytes, of write operations into
zones of a zoned block device. This new limit is exported as a
read-only sysfs queue attribute and the helper
blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() introduced for drivers to set this
limit.
The function blk_queue_set_zoned() is modified to set this new limit to
the device logical block size by default. NVMe ZNS devices as well as
zoned nullb devices use this default value as is. The scsi disk driver
is modified to execute the blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() helper to
set the zone write granularity of host-managed SMR disks to the disk
physical block size.
The accessor functions queue_zone_write_granularity() and
bdev_zone_write_granularity() are also introduced.

This reverts commit 6d4d273588.
bfq.limit_depth passes word_depths[] as shallow_depth down to sbitmap core
sbitmap_get_shallow, which uses just the number to limit the scan depth of
each bitmap word, formula:
scan_percentage_for_each_word = shallow_depth / (1 << sbimap->shift) * 100%
That means the comments's percentiles 50%, 75%, 18%, 37% of bfq are correct.
But after commit patch 'bfq: Fix computation of shallow depth', we use
sbitmap.depth instead, as a example in following case:
sbitmap.depth = 256, map_nr = 4, shift = 6; sbitmap_word.depth = 64.
The resulsts of computed bfqd->word_depths[] are {128, 192, 48, 96}, and
three of the numbers exceed core dirver's 'sbitmap_word.depth=64' limit
nothing.

Add a resource-managed variant of blk_ksm_init() so that drivers don't
have to worry about calling blk_ksm_destroy().
Note that the implementation uses a custom devres action to call
blk_ksm_destroy() rather than switching the two allocations to be
directly devres-managed, e.g. with devm_kmalloc(). This is because we
need to keep zeroing the memory containing the keyslots when it is
freed, and also because we want to continue using kvmalloc() (and there
is no devm_kvmalloc()).

Some block device drivers, e.g. the skd driver, call set_capacity() with
IRQ disabled. This results in lockdep ito complain about inconsistent
lock states ("inconsistent {HARDIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-HARDIRQ-W} usage")
because set_capacity takes a block device bd_size_lock using the
functions spin_lock() and spin_unlock(). Ensure a consistent locking
state by replacing these calls with spin_lock_irqsave() and
spin_lock_irqrestore(). The same applies to bdev_set_nr_sectors().
With this fix, all lockdep complaints are resolved.

On !PREEMPT kernel, we can get below softlockup when doing stress
testing with creating and destroying block cgroup repeatly. The
reason is it may take a long time to acquire the queue's lock in
the loop of blkcg_destroy_blkgs(), or the system can accumulate a
huge number of blkgs in pathological cases. We can add a need_resched()
check on each loop and release locks and do cond_resched() if true
to avoid this issue, since the blkcg_destroy_blkgs() is not called
from atomic contexts.

Currently whenever bfq queue has a request queued we add now -

misleading in case the process is able to submit several requests in
parallel because e.g. if the queue has request completed at time T0 and
then queues new requests at times T1, T2, then we will add T1-T0 and
T2-T0 to think time statistics which just doesn't make any sence (the
queue's think time is penalized by the queue being able to submit more
IO). So add to think time statistics only time intervals when the queue

bfq_setup_cooperator() uses bfqd->in_serv_last_pos so detect whether it

However if the in-service queue is freshly scheduled and didn't dispatch

from the previously scheduled bfq queue which can thus result in a bogus
decision that the two queues should be merged. This bug can be observed

Upon an I/O-dispatch attempt, BFQ may detect that it was better to
plug I/O dispatch, and to wait for a new request to arrive for the
currently in-service queue. But the arrival of a new request for an
empty bfq_queue, and thus the switch from idle to busy of the
bfq_queue, may cause the scenario to change, and make plugging no
longer needed for service guarantees, or more convenient for
throughput. In this case, keeping I/O-dispatch plugged would certainly
lower throughput.
To address this issue, this commit makes such a check, and stops

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.

This commits preserves I/O-dispatch plugging for a special symmetric
case that may suddenly turn into asymmetric: the case where only one
bfq_queue, say bfqq, is busy. In this case, not expiring bfqq does not
cause any harm to any other queues in terms of service guarantees. In
contrast, it avoids the following unlucky sequence of events: (1) bfqq
is expired, (2) a new queue with a lower weight than bfqq becomes busy
(or more queues), (3) the new queue is served until a new request
arrives for bfqq, (4) when bfqq is finally served, there are so many
requests of the new queue in the drive that the pending requests for
bfqq take a lot of time to be served. In particular, event (2) may
case even already dispatched requests of bfqq to be delayed, inside
the drive. So, to avoid this series of events, the scenario is
preventively declared as asymmetric also if bfqq is the only busy
queues. By doing so, I/O-dispatch plugging is performed for bfqq.

BFQ tags some bfq_queues as interactive or soft_rt if it deems that
these bfq_queues contain the I/O of, respectively, interactive or soft
real-time applications. BFQ privileges both these special types of
bfq_queues over normal bfq_queues. To privilege a bfq_queue, BFQ
mainly raises the weight of the bfq_queue. In particular, soft_rt
bfq_queues get a higher weight than interactive bfq_queues.
A bfq_queue may turn from interactive to soft_rt. And this leads to a
tricky issue. Soft real-time applications usually start with an
I/O-bound, interactive phase, in which they load themselves into main
memory. BFQ correctly detects this phase, and keeps the bfq_queues
associated with the application in interactive mode for a
while. Problems arise when the I/O pattern of the application finally
switches to soft real-time. One of the conditions for a bfq_queue to
be deemed as soft_rt is that the bfq_queue does not consume too much
bandwidth. But the bfq_queues associated with a soft real-time
application consume as much bandwidth as they can in the loading phase
of the application. So, after the application becomes truly soft
real-time, a lot of time should pass before the average bandwidth
consumed by its bfq_queues finally drops to a value acceptable for
soft_rt bfq_queues. As a consequence, there might be a time gap during
which the application is not privileged at all, because its bfq_queues
are not interactive any longer, but cannot be deemed as soft_rt yet.
To avoid this problem, BFQ pretends that an interactive bfq_queue
consumes zero bandwidth, and allows an interactive bfq_queue to switch
to soft_rt. Yet, this fake zero-bandwidth consumption easily causes
the bfq_queue to often switch to soft_rt deceptively, during its
loading phase. As in soft_rt mode, the bfq_queue gets its bandwidth
correctly computed, and therefore soon switches back to
interactive. Then it switches again to soft_rt, and so on. These
spurious fluctuations usually cause losses of throughput, because they
deceive BFQ's mechanisms for boosting throughput (injection,
I/O-plugging avoidance, ...).
This commit addresses this issue as follows:
1) It does compute actual bandwidth consumption also for interactive
bfq_queues. This avoids the above false positives.
2) When a bfq_queue switches from interactive to normal mode, the
consumed bandwidth is reset (forgotten). This allows the
bfq_queue to enjoy soft_rt very quickly. In particular, two
alternatives are possible in this switch:
- the bfq_queue still has backlog, and therefore there is a budget
already scheduled to serve the bfq_queue; in this case, the
scheduling of the current budget of the bfq_queue is not
hindered, because only the scheduling of the next budget will
be affected by the weight drop. After that, if the bfq_queue is
actually in a soft_rt phase, and becomes empty during the
service of its current budget, which is the natural behavior of
a soft_rt bfq_queue, then the bfq_queue will be considered as
soft_rt when its next I/O arrives. If, in contrast, the
bfq_queue remains constantly non-empty, then its next budget
will be scheduled with a low weight, which is the natural
treatment for an I/O-bound (non soft_rt) bfq_queue.
- the bfq_queue is empty; in this case, the bfq_queue may be
considered unjustly soft_rt when its new I/O arrives. Yet
the problem is now much smaller than before, because it is
unlikely that more than one spurious fluctuation occurs.

Since commit c5089591c3ba ("block, bfq: detect wakers and

inject (also) from the waker bfq_queue for Q. To this goal, the value
pointed by bfqq->waker_bfqq->next_rq must be controlled. However, the
current implementation mistakenly looks at bfqq->next_rq, which
instead points to the next request of the currently served queue.
This mistake evidently causes losses of throughput in scenarios with
waker bfq_queues.
