When blk_throtl_bio() wants to queue a bio to a tg (throtl_grp), it
avoids invoking tg_update_disptime() and
throtl_schedule_next_dispatch() if the tg already has bios queued in
that direction. As a new bio is appeneded after the existing ones, it
can't change the tg's next dispatch time or the parent's dispatch
schedule.
This optimization is currently open coded in blk_throtl_bio().
Whether the target biolist was occupied was recorded in a local
variable and later used to skip disptime update. This patch moves
generalizes it so that throtl_add_bio_tg() sets a new flag
THROTL_TG_WAS_EMPTY if the biolist was empty before the new bio was
added. tg_update_disptime() clears the flag automatically.
blk_throtl_bio() is updated to simply test the flag before updating
disptime.
This patch doesn't make any functional differences now but will enable
using the same optimization for recursive dispatch.

throtl_service_queues will eventually form a tree which is anchored at
throtl_data->service_queue and queue bios will climb the tree to the
top service_queue to be executed.
This patch makes the dispatch paths in blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn()
and blk_throtl_drain() to dispatch bios to
throtl_data->service_queue.bio_lists[] instead of the on-stack
bio_lists. This will keep the final dispatch to the top level
service_queue share the same mechanism as dispatches through the rest
of the hierarchy.
As bio's should be issued in a sleepable context,
blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() transfers all dispatched bio's from the
service_queue bio_lists[] into an onstack one before dropping
queue_lock and issuing the bio's.

throtl_service_queues will eventually form a tree which is anchored at
throtl_data->service_queue and queue bios will climb the tree to the
top service_queue to be executed.
This patch moves bio_lists[] and nr_queued[] from throtl_grp to its
service_queue to prepare for that. As currently only the
throtl_data->service_queue is in use, this patch just ends up moving
throtl_grp->bio_lists[] and ->nr_queued[] to

Currently, there's single service_queue per queue -
throtl_data->service_queue. All active throtl_grp's are queued on the
queue and dispatched according to their limits. To support hierarchy,
this will be expanded such that active throtl_grp's form a tree
anchored at throtl_data->service_queue and chained through each
intermediate throtl_grp's service_queue.
This patch adds throtl_grp->service_queue to prepare for hierarchy
support. The initialization function - throtl_service_queue_init() -
is added and replaces the macro initializer. The newly added
tg->service_queue isn't used yet. Following patches will do.

throtl_service_queue will be the building block of hierarchy support
and will form a tree. This patch updates its usages as arguments to
reduce confusion.
* When a service queue is used as the parent role - the host of the
rbtree - use @parent_sq instead of @sq.
* For functions taking both @tg and @parent_sq, reorder them so that
the order is (@tg, @parent_sq) not the other way around. This makes
the code follow the usual convention of specifying the primary
target of the operation as the first argument.

throtl_nr_queued() is used in several places to avoid performing
certain operations when the throtl_data is empty. This usually is
useless as those paths usually aren't traveled if there's no bio
queued.
* throtl_schedule_delayed_work() skips scheduling dispatch work item
if @td doesn't have any bios queued; however, the only case it can
be called when @td is empty is from tg_set_conf() which isn't
something we should be optimizing for.
* throtl_schedule_next_dispatch() takes a quick exit if @td is empty;
however, right after that it triggers BUG if the service tree is
empty. The two conditions are equivalent and it can just test
@st->count for the quick exit.
* blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() skips dispatch if @td is empty. This
work function isn't usually invoked when @td is empty. The only
possibility is from tg_set_conf() and when it happens the normal
dispatching path can handle empty @td fine. No need to add special
skip path.
This patch removes the above three unnecessary optimizations, which
leave throtl_log() call in blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() the only user
of throtl_nr_queued(). Remove throtl_nr_queued() and open code it in
throtl_log(). I don't think we need td->nr_queued[] at all. Maybe we
can remove it later.

When bps or iops configuration changes, blk-throttle records the new
configuration and sets a flag indicating that the config has changed.
The flag is checked in the bio dispatch path and applied. This
deferred config application was necessary due to limitations in blkcg
framework, which haven't existed for quite a while now.
This patch removes the deferred config application mechanism and
applies new configurations directly from tg_set_conf(), which is

Currently, when the last reference of a blkcg_gq is put, all then
release operations sans the actual freeing happen directly in
blkg_put(). As blkg_put() may be called under queue_lock, all
pd_exit_fn()s may be too. This makes it impossible for pd_exit_fn()s
to use del_timer_sync() on timers which grab the queue_lock which is
an irq-safe lock due to the deadlock possibility described in the
comment on top of del_timer_sync().
This can be easily avoided by perfoming the release operations in the
RCU callback instead of directly from blkg_put(). This patch moves
the blkcg_gq release operations to the RCU callback.
As this leaves __blkg_release() with only call_rcu() invocation,
blkg_rcu_free() is renamed to __blkg_release_rcu(), exported and
call_rcu() invocation is now done directly from blkg_put() instead of
going through __blkg_release() which is removed.

Currently, when creating a new blkcg_gq, each policy's pd_init_fn() is
invoked in blkg_alloc() before the parent is linked. This makes it
difficult for policies to perform initializations which are dependent
on the parent.
This patch moves pd_init_fn() invocations to blkg_create() after the
parent blkg is linked where the new blkg is fully initialized. As
this means that blkg_free() can't assume that pd's are initialized,
pd_exit_fn() invocations are moved to __blkg_release(). This
guarantees that pd_exit_fn() is also invoked with fully initialized
blkgs with valid parent pointers.

In blkg_create(), after lookup of parent fails, the control jumps to

doesn't use @blkg for the return value. It returns ERR_PTR(ret).
Make lookup fail path set @ret instead of @blkg.
Note that the parent lookup is guaranteed to succeed at that point and
the condition check is purely for sanity and triggers WARN when fails.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
- Fixes and a lot of cleanups. Locking cleanup is finally complete.
cgroup_mutex is no longer exposed to individual controlelrs which
used to cause nasty deadlock issues. Li fixed and cleaned up quite a
bit including long standing ones like racy cgroup_path().
- device cgroup now supports proper hierarchy thanks to Aristeu.
- perf_event cgroup now supports proper hierarchy.
- A new mount option "__DEVEL__sane_behavior" is added. As indicated
by the name, this option is to be used for development only at this
point and generates a warning message when used. Unfortunately,
cgroup interface currently has too many brekages and inconsistencies
to implement a consistent and unified hierarchy on top. The new flag
is used to collect the behavior changes which are necessary to
implement consistent unified hierarchy. It's likely that this flag
won't be used verbatim when it becomes ready but will be enabled
implicitly along with unified hierarchy.
The option currently disables some of broken behaviors in cgroup core
and also .use_hierarchy switch in memcg (will be routed through -mm),
which can be used to make very unusual hierarchy where nesting is
partially honored. It will also be used to implement hierarchy
support for blk-throttle which would be impossible otherwise without
introducing a full separate set of control knobs.
This is essentially versioning of interface which isn't very nice but
at this point I can't see any other options which would allow keeping
the interface the same while moving towards hierarchy behavior which
is at least somewhat sane. The planned unified hierarchy is likely
to require some level of adaptation from userland anyway, so I think
it'd be best to take the chance and update the interface such that
it's supportable in the long term.
Maintaining the existing interface does complicate cgroup core but
shouldn't put too much strain on individual controllers and I think
it'd be manageable for the foreseeable future. Maybe we'll be able
to drop it in a decade.
Fix up conflicts (including a semantic one adding a new #include to ppc
that was uncovered by header the file changes) as per Tejun.

This is the pull request for the earlier patchset[1] with the same

workqueue tree) but the merge strategy is a bit involved due to the
dependencies.
* Because the conversion needs features from wq/for-3.10,
block/for-3.10/core is based on rc3, and wq/for-3.10 has conflicts
with rc3, I pulled mainline (rc5) into wq/for-3.10 to prevent those
workqueue conflicts from flaring up in block tree.
* Resolving the issue that Jan and Dave raised about debugging
requires arch-wide changes. The patchset is being worked on[2] but
it'll have to go through -mm after these changes show up in -next,
and not included in this pull request.
The three commits are located in the following git branch.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git writeback-workqueue
Pulling it into block/for-3.10/core produces a conflict in
drivers/md/raid5.c between the following two commits.
e3620a3ad5 ("MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available")
2f6db2a707 ("raid5: use bio_reset()")
The conflict is trivial - one removes an "if ()" conditional while the
other removes "rbi->bi_next = NULL" right above it. We just need to
remove both. The merged branch is available at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git block-test-merge
so that you can use it for verification. The test merge commit has
proper merge description.
While these changes are a bit of pain to route, they make code simpler
and even have, while minute, measureable performance gain[3] even on a
workload which isn't particularly favorable to showing the benefits of
this conversion.

Note that req_bio_endio() now always calls bio_advance() - which means
it always loops over the biovec, not just on partial completions. Don't
expect it to affect performance, but worth noting.
Tested it by forcing partial updates, and dumping before and after on
various bio/bvec fields when doing a partial update.

When a request is added:
If device is suspended or is suspending and the request is not a
PM request, resume the device.
When the last request finishes:
Call pm_runtime_mark_last_busy().
When pick a request:
If device is resuming/suspending, then only PM request is allowed
to go.

Add runtime pm helper functions:
void blk_pm_runtime_init(struct request_queue *q, struct device *dev)
- Initialization function for drivers to call.
int blk_pre_runtime_suspend(struct request_queue *q)
- If any requests are in the queue, mark last busy and return -EBUSY.
Otherwise set q->rpm_status to RPM_SUSPENDING and return 0.
void blk_post_runtime_suspend(struct request_queue *q, int err)
- If the suspend succeeded then set q->rpm_status to RPM_SUSPENDED.
Otherwise set it to RPM_ACTIVE and mark last busy.
void blk_pre_runtime_resume(struct request_queue *q)
- Set q->rpm_status to RPM_RESUMING.
void blk_post_runtime_resume(struct request_queue *q, int err)
- If the resume succeeded then set q->rpm_status to RPM_ACTIVE
and call __blk_run_queue, then mark last busy and autosuspend.
Otherwise set q->rpm_status to RPM_SUSPENDED.

Any partitions added by user space to the loop device were being
left in place after detaching the loop device. This was because
the detach path issued a BLKRRPART to clean up partitions if
LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN was set, meaning that the partitions were auto
scanned on attach. Replace this BLKRRPART with code that
unconditionally cleans up partitions on detach instead.

rename() will change dentry->d_name. The result of this race can
be worse than seeing partially rewritten name, but we might access
a stale pointer because rename() will re-allocate memory to hold
a longer name.
As accessing dentry->name must be protected by dentry->d_lock or
parent inode's i_mutex, while on the other hand cgroup-path() can
be called with some irq-safe spinlocks held, we can't generate
cgroup path using dentry->d_name.
Alternatively we make a copy of dentry->d_name and save it in
cgrp->name when a cgroup is created, and update cgrp->name at
rename().
v5: use flexible array instead of zero-size array.
v4: - allocate root_cgroup_name and all root_cgroup->name points to it.
- add cgroup_name() wrapper.
v3: use kfree_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu() in user-visible path.
v2: make cgrp->name RCU safe.

Pull block IO core bits from Jens Axboe:
"Below are the core block IO bits for 3.9. It was delayed a few days
since my workstation kept crashing every 2-8h after pulling it into
current -git, but turns out it is a bug in the new pstate code (divide
by zero, will report separately). In any case, it contains:
- The big cfq/blkcg update from Tejun and and Vivek.
- Additional block and writeback tracepoints from Tejun.
- Improvement of the should sort (based on queues) logic in the plug
flushing.
- _io() variants of the wait_for_completion() interface, using
io_schedule() instead of schedule() to contribute to io wait
properly.
- Various little fixes.
You'll get two trivial merge conflicts, which should be easy enough to
fix up"

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

Currently, sizeof(struct parsed_partitions) may be 64KB in 32bit arch, so
it is easy to trigger page allocation failure by check_partition,
especially in hotplug block device situation(such as, USB mass storage,
MMC card, ...), and Felipe Balbi has observed the failure.
This patch does below optimizations on the allocation of struct
parsed_partitions to try to address the issue:
- make parsed_partitions.parts as pointer so that the pointed memory can
fit in 32KB buffer, then approximate 32KB memory can be saved
- vmalloc the buffer pointed by parsed_partitions.parts because 32KB is
still a bit big for kmalloc
- given that many devices have the partition count limit, so only
allocate disk_max_parts() partitions instead of 256 partitions always

UEFI 2.3.1D will include a change to the spec language mandating that a
GPT header must be greater than *or equal to* the size of the defined
structure. While verifying that this would work on Linux, I discovered
that we're not actually checking the minimum bound at all.
The result of this is that when we verify the checksum, it's possible that
on a malformed header (with header_size of 0), we won't actually verify
any data.

AIX formatted disks do not always have the MSDOS 55aa signature.
This happens e.g. for unbootable AIX disks.
Up to now, such disks were not recognized as AIX disks, because of the
missing 55aa. Fix that by inverting the two tests. Let's first
check for the AIX magic strings, and only if that fails check for
the MSDOS magic word.
