In our application, we need a way to force TCP connections to go out a specific IP interface instead of letting Linux select the interface based on the routing tables. Add the 'host-iface' option to allow specifying the interface to use. When the option host-iface is specified, the driver uses the specified interface to set the option SO_BINDTODEVICE on the TCP socket before connecting. This new option is needed in addtion to the existing host-traddr for the following reasons: Specifying an IP interface by its associated IP address is less intuitive than specifying the actual interface name and, in some cases, simply doesn't work. That's because the association between interfaces and IP addresses is not predictable. IP addresses can be changed or can change by themselves over time (e.g. DHCP). Interface names are predictable [1] and will persist over time. Consider the following configuration. 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state ... link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 100.0.0.100/24 scope global lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: enp0s3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc ... link/ether 08:00:27:21:65:ec brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 100.0.0.100/24 scope global enp0s3 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 3: enp0s8: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc ... link/ether 08:00:27:4f:95:5c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 100.0.0.100/24 scope global enp0s8 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever The above is a VM that I configured with the same IP address (100.0.0.100) on all interfaces. Doing a reverse lookup to identify the unique interface associated with 100.0.0.100 does not work here. And this is why the option host_iface is required. I understand that the above config does not represent a standard host system, but I'm using this to prove a point: "We can never know how users will configure their systems". By te way, The above configuration is perfectly fine by Linux. The current TCP implementation for host_traddr performs a bind()-before-connect(). This is a common construct to set the source IP address on a TCP socket before connecting. This has no effect on how Linux selects the interface for the connection. That's because Linux uses the Weak End System model as described in RFC1122 [2]. On the other hand, setting the Source IP Address has benefits and should be supported by linux-nvme. In fact, setting the Source IP Address is a mandatory FedGov requirement (e.g. connection to a RADIUS/TACACS+ server). Consider the following configuration. $ ip addr list dev enp0s8 3: enp0s8: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc ... link/ether 08:00:27:4f:95:5c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.56.101/24 brd 192.168.56.255 scope global enp0s8 valid_lft 426sec preferred_lft 426sec inet 192.168.56.102/24 scope global secondary enp0s8 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet 192.168.56.103/24 scope global secondary enp0s8 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet 192.168.56.104/24 scope global secondary enp0s8 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever Here we can see that several addresses are associated with interface enp0s8. By default, Linux always selects the default IP address, 192.168.56.101, as the source address when connecting over interface enp0s8. Some users, however, want the ability to specify a different source address (e.g., 192.168.56.102, 192.168.56.103, ...). The option host_traddr can be used as-is to perform this function. In conclusion, I believe that we need 2 options for TCP connections. One that can be used to specify an interface (host-iface). And one that can be used to set the source address (host-traddr). Users should be allowed to use one or the other, or both, or none. Of course, the documentation for host_traddr will need some clarification. It should state that when used for TCP connection, this option only sets the source address. And the documentation for host_iface should say that this option is only available for TCP connections.

The documentation around the StorageD3Enable property hints that it should be made on the PCI device. This is where newer AMD systems set the property and it's required for S0i3 support. So rather than look for nodes of the root port only present on Intel systems, switch to the companion ACPI device for all systems. David Box from Intel indicated this should work on Intel as well.

The algorithm that was used until now for building the APST configuration table has been found to produce entries with excessively long ITPT (idle time prior to transition) for devices declaring relatively long entry and exit latencies for non-operational power states. This leads to unnecessary waste of power and, as a result, failure to pass mandatory power consumption tests on Chromebook platforms. The new algorithm is based on two predefined ITPT values and two predefined latency tolerances. Based on these values, as well as on exit and entry latencies reported by the device, the algorithm looks for up to 2 suitable non-operational power states to use as primary and secondary APST transition targets. The predefined values are supplied to the nvme driver as module parameters: - apst_primary_timeout_ms (default: 100) - apst_secondary_timeout_ms (default: 2000) - apst_primary_latency_tol_us (default: 15000) - apst_secondary_latency_tol_us (default: 100000) The algorithm echoes the approach used by Intel's and Microsoft's drivers on Windows. The specific default parameter values are also based on those drivers. Yet, this patch doesn't introduce the ability to dynamically regenerate the APST table in the event of switching the power source from AC to battery and back. Adding this functionality may be considered in the future. In the meantime, the timeouts and tolerances reflect a compromise between values used by Microsoft for AC and battery scenarios. In most NVMe devices the new algorithm causes them to implement a more aggressive power saving policy. While beneficial in most cases, this sometimes comes at the price of a higher IO processing latency in certain scenarios as well as at the price of a potential impact on the drive's endurance (due to more frequent context saving when entering deep non- operational states). So in order to provide a fallback for systems where these regressions cannot be tolerated, the patch allows to revert to the legacy behavior by setting either apst_primary_timeout_ms or apst_primary_latency_tol_us parameter to 0. Eventually (and possibly after fine tuning the default values of the module parameters) the legacy behavior can be removed. TESTING. The new algorithm has been extensively tested. Initially, simulations were used to compare APST tables generated by old and new algorithms for a wide range of devices. After that, power consumption, performance and latencies were measured under different workloads on devices from multiple vendors (WD, Intel, Samsung, Hynix, Kioxia). Below is the description of the tests and the findings. General observations. The effect the patch has on the APST table varies depending on the entry and exit latencies advertised by the devices. For some devices, the effect is negligible (e.g. Kioxia KBG40ZNS), for some significant, making the transitions to PS3 and PS4 much quicker (e.g. WD SN530, Intel 760P), or making the sleep deeper, PS4 rather than PS3 after a similar amount of time (e.g. SK Hynix BC511). For some devices (e.g. Samsung PM991) the effect is mixed: the initial transition happens after a longer idle time, but takes the device to a lower power state. Workflows. In order to evaluate the patch's effect on the power consumption and latency, 7 workflows were used for each device. The workflows were designed to test the scenarios where significant differences between the old and new behaviors are most likely. Each workflow was tested twice: with the new and with the old APST table generation implementation. Power consumption, performance and latency were measured in the process. The following workflows were used: 1) Consecutive write at the maximum rate with IO depth of 2, with no pauses 2) Repeated pattern of 1000 consecutive writes of 4K packets followed by 50ms idle time 3) Repeated pattern of 1000 consecutive writes of 4K packets followed by 150ms idle time 4) Repeated pattern of 1000 consecutive writes of 4K packets followed by 500ms idle time 5) Repeated pattern of 1000 consecutive writes of 4K packets followed by 1.5s idle time 6) Repeated pattern of 1000 consecutive writes of 4K packets followed by 5s idle time 7) Repeated pattern of a single random read of a 4K packet followed by 150ms idle time Power consumption Actual power consumption measurements produced predictable results in accordance with the APST mechanism's theory of operation. Devices with long entry and exit latencies such as WD SN530 showed huge improvement on scenarios 4,5 and 6 of up to 62%. Devices such as Kioxia KBG40ZNS where the resulting APST table looks virtually identical with both legacy and new algorithms, showed little or no change in the average power consumption on all workflows. Devices with extra short latencies such as Samsung PM991 showed moderate increase in power consumption of up to 18% in worst case scenarios. In addition, on Intel and Samsung devices a more complex impact was observed on scenarios 3, 4 and 7. Our understanding is that due to longer stay in deep non-operational states between the writes the devices start performing background operations leading to an increase of power consumption. With the old APST tables part of these operations are delayed until the scenario is over and a longer idle period begins, but eventually this extra power is consumed anyway. Performance. In terms of performance measured on sustained write or read scenarios, the effect of the patch is minimal as in this case the device doesn't enter low power states. Latency As expected, in devices where the patch causes a more aggressive power saving policy (e.g. WD SN530, Intel 760P), an increase in latency was observed in certain scenarios. Workflow number 7, specifically designed to simulate the worst case scenario as far as latency is concerned, indeed shows a sharp increase in average latency (~2ms -> ~53ms on Intel 760P and 0.6 -> 10ms on WD SN530). The latency increase on other workloads and other devices is much milder or non-existent. Signed-off-by: Alexey Bogoslavsky <alexey.bogoslavsky@wdc.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

The tags used for an IO scheduler are currently per hctx. As such, when q->nr_hw_queues grows, so does the request queue total IO scheduler tag depth. This may cause problems for SCSI MQ HBAs whose total driver depth is fixed. Ming and Yanhui report higher CPU usage and lower throughput in scenarios where the fixed total driver tag depth is appreciably lower than the total scheduler tag depth: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/440dfcfc-1a2c-bd98-1161-cec4d78c6dfc@huawei.com/T/#mc0d6d4f95275a2743d1c8c3e4dc9ff6c9aa3a76b In that scenario, since the scheduler tag is got first, much contention is introduced since a driver tag may not be available after we have got the sched tag. Improve this scenario by introducing request queue-wide tags for when a tagset-wide sbitmap is used. The static sched requests are still allocated per hctx, as requests are initialised per hctx, as in blk_mq_init_request(..., hctx_idx, ...) -> set->ops->init_request(.., hctx_idx, ...). For simplicity of resizing the request queue sbitmap when updating the request queue depth, just init at the max possible size, so we don't need to deal with the possibly with swapping out a new sbitmap for old if we need to grow.

refcount_inc_not_zero() in bt_tags_iter() still may read one freed request. Fix the issue by the following approach: 1) hold a per-tags spinlock when reading ->rqs[tag] and calling refcount_inc_not_zero in bt_tags_iter() 2) clearing stale request referred via ->rqs[tag] before freeing request pool, the per-tags spinlock is held for clearing stale ->rq[tag] So after we cleared stale requests, bt_tags_iter() won't observe freed request any more, also the clearing will wait for pending request reference.

blkcg has always rejected to attach if any of the member tasks has shared io_context. The rationale was that io_contexts can be shared across different cgroups making it impossible to define what the appropriate control behavior should be. However, this check causes more problems than it solves: * The check prevents controller enable and migrations but not CLONE_IO itself, which can lead to surprises as the outcome changes depending on the order of operations. * Sharing within a cgroup is fine but the check can't distinguish that. This leads to unnecessary conflicts with the recent CLONE_IO usage in io_uring. io_context sharing doesn't make any difference for rq_qos based controllers and the way it's used is safe as long as tasks aren't migrated dynamically which is the vast majority of use cases. While we can try to make the check more precise to avoid false positives, the added complexity doesn't seem worthwhile. Let's just drop blkcg_can_attach().

block_dump is an old debugging interface, one of it's functions is used to print the information about who write which file on disk. If we enable block_dump through /proc/sys/vm/block_dump and turn on debug log level, we can gather information about write process name, target file name and disk from kernel message. This feature is realized in block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(), it print above information into kernel message directly when marking inode dirty, so it is noisy and can easily trigger log storm. At the same time, get the dentry refcount is also not safe, we found it will lead to deadlock on ext4 file system with data=journal mode. After tracepoints has been introduced into the kernel, we got a tracepoint in __mark_inode_dirty(), which is a better replacement of block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(). The only downside is that it only trace the inode number and not a file name, but it probably doesn't matter because the original printed file name in block_dump is not accurate in some cases, and we can still find it through the inode number and device id. So this patch delete the dirting inode part of block_dump feature.

Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Two locking fixes: - Invoke the lockdep tracepoints in the correct place so the ordering is correct again - Don't leave the mutex WAITER bit stale when the last waiter is dropping out early due to a signal as that forces all subsequent lock operations needlessly into the slowpath until it's cleaned up again" * tag 'locking-urgent-2021-05-23' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: locking/mutex: clear MUTEX_FLAGS if wait_list is empty due to signal locking/lockdep: Correct calling tracepoints
