A zone ID is a 32 bits unsigned int which can overflow when doing the bit shifts in dmz_start_sect(). With a 256 MB zone size drive, the overflow happens for a zone ID >= 8192. Fix this by casting the zone ID to a sector_t before doing the bit shift. While at it, similarly fix dmz_start_block().

The dm-zoned device mapper target provides transparent write access to zoned block devices (ZBC and ZAC compliant block devices). dm-zoned hides to the device user (a file system or an application doing raw block device accesses) any constraint imposed on write requests by the device, equivalent to a drive-managed zoned block device model. Write requests are processed using a combination of on-disk buffering using the device conventional zones and direct in-place processing for requests aligned to a zone sequential write pointer position. A background reclaim process implemented using dm_kcopyd_copy ensures that conventional zones are always available for executing unaligned write requests. The reclaim process overhead is minimized by managing buffer zones in a least-recently-written order and first targeting the oldest buffer zones. Doing so, blocks under regular write access (such as metadata blocks of a file system) remain stored in conventional zones, resulting in no apparent overhead. dm-zoned implementation focus on simplicity and on minimizing overhead (CPU, memory and storage overhead). For a 14TB host-managed disk with 256 MB zones, dm-zoned memory usage per disk instance is at most about 3 MB and as little as 5 zones will be used internally for storing metadata and performing buffer zone reclaim operations. This is achieved using zone level indirection rather than a full block indirection system for managing block movement between zones. dm-zoned primary target is host-managed zoned block devices but it can also be used with host-aware device models to mitigate potential device-side performance degradation due to excessive random writing. Zoned block devices can be formatted and checked for use with the dm-zoned target using the dmzadm utility available at: https://github.com/hgst/dm-zoned-toolsSigned-off-by: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@wdc.com> Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@sandisk.com> [Mike Snitzer partly refactored Damien's original work to cleanup the code] Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

When copyying blocks to host-managed zoned block devices, writes must be sequential. However, dm_kcopyd_copy() does not guarantee this as writes are issued in the completion order of reads, and reads may complete out of order despite being issued sequentially. Fix this by introducing the DM_KCOPYD_WRITE_SEQ feature flag. This can be specified when calling dm_kcopyd_copy() and should be set automatically if one of the destinations is a host-managed zoned block device. For a split job, the master job maintains the write position at which writes must be issued. This is checked with the pop() function which is modified to not return any write I/O sub job that is not at the correct write position. When DM_KCOPYD_WRITE_SEQ is specified for a job, errors cannot be ignored and the flag DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR is ignored, even if specified by the user.

A target driver support zoned block devices and exposing it as such may receive REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT request for the user to determine the mapped device zone configuration. To process properly such request, the target driver may need to remap the zone descriptors provided in the report reply. The helper function dm_remap_zone_report() does this generically using only the target start offset and length and the start offset within the target device. dm_remap_zone_report() will remap the start sector of all zones reported. If the report includes sequential zones, the write pointer position of these zones will also be remapped.

1) Introduce DM_TARGET_ZONED_HM feature flag: The target drivers currently available will not operate correctly if a table target maps onto a host-managed zoned block device. To avoid problems, introduce the new feature flag DM_TARGET_ZONED_HM to allow a target to explicitly state that it supports host-managed zoned block devices. This feature is checked for all targets in a table if any of the table's block devices are host-managed. Note that as host-aware zoned block devices are backward compatible with regular block devices, they can be used by any of the current target types. This new feature is thus restricted to host-managed zoned block devices. 2) Check device area zone alignment: If a target maps to a zoned block device, check that the device area is aligned on zone boundaries to avoid problems with REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET operations (resetting a partially mapped sequential zone would not be possible). This also facilitates the processing of zone report with REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT bios. 3) Check block devices zone model compatibility When setting the DM device's queue limits, several possibilities exists for zoned block devices: 1) The DM target driver may want to expose a different zone model (e.g. host-managed device emulation or regular block device on top of host-managed zoned block devices) 2) Expose the underlying zone model of the devices as-is To allow both cases, the underlying block device zone model must be set in the target limits in dm_set_device_limits() and the compatibility of all devices checked similarly to the logical block size alignment. For this last check, introduce validate_hardware_zoned_model() to check that all targets of a table have the same zone model and that the zone size of the target devices are equal.

It is required that no dispatch can happen any more once blk_mq_quiesce_queue() returns, and we don't have such requirement on APIs of stopping queue. But blk_mq_quiesce_queue() still may not block/drain dispatch in the the case of BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN, so use the new introduced flag of QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED and evaluate it inside RCU read-side critical sections for fixing this issue. Also blk_mq_quiesce_queue() is implemented via stopping queue, which limits its uses, and easy to cause race, because any queue restart in other paths may break blk_mq_quiesce_queue(). With the introduced flag of QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED, we don't need to depend on stopping queue for quiescing any more.

blk_bio_segment_split() makes sure bios have no more than BIO_MAX_PAGES entries in the bi_io_vec.

No driver uses bio_clone_bioset() any more, they all use bio_clone_fast() if anything, and bio_clone_fast() doesn't clone the bi_io_vec.

bio_clone() makes a copy of the bi_io_vec, but rbd never changes that, so there is no need for a copy. bio_clone_fast() can be used instead, which avoids making the copy. This requires that we provide a bio_set. bio_clone() uses fs_bio_set, but it isn't, in general, safe to use the same bio_set at different levels of the stack, as that can lead to deadlocks. As filesystems use fs_bio_set, block devices shouldn't. As rbd never stacks, it is safe to have a single global bio_set for all rbd devices to use. So allocate that when the module is initialised, and use it with bio_clone_fast().

Since commit 23688bf4 ("block: ensure to split after potentially bouncing a bio") blk_queue_bounce() is called *before* blk_queue_split(). This means that: 1/ the comments blk_queue_split() about bounce buffers are irrelevant, and 2/ a very large bio (more than BIO_MAX_PAGES) will no longer be split before it arrives at blk_queue_bounce(), leading to the possibility that bio_clone_bioset() will fail and a NULL will be dereferenced. Separately, blk_queue_bounce() shouldn't use fs_bio_set as the bio being copied could be from the same set, and this could lead to a deadlock. So: - allocate 2 private biosets for blk_queue_bounce, one for splitting enormous bios and one for cloning bios. - add code to split a bio that exceeds BIO_MAX_PAGES. - Fix up the comments in blk_queue_split() Credit-to: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> (suggested using single bio_for_each_segment loop) Reviewed-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

A rescuing bioset is only useful if there might be bios from that same bioset on the bio_list_on_stack queue at a time when bio_alloc_bioset() is called. This never applies to q->bio_split. Allocations from q->bio_split are only ever made from blk_queue_split() which is only ever called early in each of various make_request_fn()s. The original bio (call this A) is then passed to generic_make_request() and is placed on the bio_list_on_stack queue, and the bio that was allocated from q->bio_split (B) is processed. The processing of this may cause other bios to be passed to generic_make_request() or may even cause the bio B itself to be passed, possible after some prefix has been split off (using some other bioset). generic_make_request() now guarantees that all of these bios (B and dependants) will be fully processed before the tail of the original bio A gets handled. None of these early bios can possible trigger an allocation from the original q->bio_split as they are either too small to require splitting or (more likely) are destined for a different queue. The next time that the original q->bio_split might be used by this thread is when A is processed again, as it might still be too big to handle directly. By this time there cannot be any other bios allocated from q->bio_split in the generic_make_request() queue. So no rescuing will ever be needed.

This patch converts bioset_create() to not create a workqueue by default, so alloctions will never trigger punt_bios_to_rescuer(). It also introduces a new flag BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER which tells bioset_create() to preserve the old behavior. All callers of bioset_create() that are inside block device drivers, are given the BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag. biosets used by filesystems or other top-level users do not need rescuing as the bio can never be queued behind other bios. This includes fs_bio_set, blkdev_dio_pool, btrfs_bioset, xfs_ioend_bioset, and one allocated by target_core_iblock.c. biosets used by md/raid do not need rescuing as their usage was recently audited and revised to never risk deadlock.
