The 'verify_rq_based:' code in dm_table_determine_type() was checking all devices in the DM table rather than only checking the data devices. Fix this by using the immutable target's iterate_devices method. Also, tweak the block of dm_table_determine_type() code that decides whether to upgrade from DM_TYPE_BIO_BASED to DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED so that it makes sure the immutable_target doesn't support require splitting IOs. These changes have been verified to allow a "thin-pool" target whose data device is an NVMe device to be upgraded to DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED. Using the thin-pool in NVMe bio-based mode was verified to pass all the device-mapper-test-suite's "thin-provisioning" tests. Also verified that request-based DM multipath (with queue_mode "rq" and "mq") works as expected using the 'mptest' harness. Fixes: 22c11858 ("dm: introduce DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED") Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

Add DM_ENDIO_DELAY_REQUEUE to allow request-based multipath's multipath_end_io() to instruct dm-rq.c:dm_done() to delay a requeue. This is beneficial to do if BLK_STS_RESOURCE is returned from the target (because target is busy). Relative to blk-mq: kick the hw queues via blk_mq_requeue_work(), indirectly from dm-rq.c:__dm_mq_kick_requeue_list(), after a delay. For old .request_fn: use blk_delay_queue(). bio-based multipath doesn't have feature parity with request-based for retryable error requeues; that is something that'll need fixing in the future.

Avoid using DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE unless absolutely necessary because it results in dm-rq.c:dm_mq_queue_rq() returning BLK_STS_RESOURCE to blk-mq -- doing so should only ever be done if the underlying queue is out of resources. So switch to returning DM_MAPIO_DELAY_REQUEUE from multipath_clone_and_map() if either MPATHF_QUEUE_IO or MPATHF_PG_INIT_REQUIRED are set.

blk-mq will rerun queue via RESTART or dispatch wake after one request is completed, so not necessary to wait random time for requeuing, we should trust blk-mq to do it. More importantly, we need to return BLK_STS_RESOURCE to blk-mq so that dequeuing from the I/O scheduler can be stopped, this results in improved I/O merging.

Fixes: 1. The use of "exceeds" when the opposite of exceeds, falls below, was meant. 2. Properly speaking, a table can not exceed a threshold. It emphasizes the important point, which is that it is the userspace daemon's responsibility to check for low free space when a device is resumed, since it won't get a special event indicating low free space in that situation.

This device mapper "unstriped" target remaps and unstripes I/O so it is issued solely on a single drive in a HW RAID0 or dm-striped target. In a 4 drive HW RAID0 the striped target exposes 1/4th of the LBA range as a virtual drive. Each I/O to that virtual drive will only be issued to the 1 drive that was selected of the 4 drives in the HW RAID0. This unstriped target is most useful for Intel NVMe drives that have multiple cores but that do not have firmware control to pin separate LBA ranges to each discrete cpu core.

Trying to do both SCSI and NVMe bio-based handling with branching in the same common code has proven too tedious on a code maintenance level. In addition it slightly hurts IO performance. Fix this by factoring out __map_bio() and __map_bio_nvme(). Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

This DM multipath NVMe bio-based support requires CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH to not be set. In the future hopefully NVMe multipath and DM multipath can co-exist more seemlessly. But as is, if CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH=Y then all the individal NVMe paths will remain hidden to upper layers and as such DM multipath will not be able to manage them. Though NVMe's native multipathing doesn't multipath namespaces across subsystems; so technically a user _could_ use CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH=Y and also use DM multipath to multipath across subsystems.

Upper level bio-based drivers that stack immediately ontop of NVMe can leverage direct_make_request(). In addition DM's NVMe bio-based will initially only ever have one NVMe device that it submits IO to at a time. There is no splitting needed. Enhance DM core so that DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED's IO submission takes advantage of both of these characteristics. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

If dm_table_determine_type() establishes DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED then all devices in the DM table do not support partial completions. Also, the table has a single immutable target that doesn't require DM core to split bios. This will enable adding NVMe optimizations to bio-based DM. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

No apparent need to generic_start_io_acct() until before the IO is ready for submission. start_io_acct() is the proper place to do this accounting -- it is also where DM accounts for pending IO and, if enabled, starts dm-stats accounting. Replace start_io_acct()'s part_round_stats() with generic_start_io_acct(). This eliminates needing to take part_stat_lock() multiple times when starting an IO on bio-based devices.

Eliminates need for a separate mempool to allocate 'struct dm_io' objects from. As such, it saves an extra mempool allocation for each original bio that DM core is issued. This complicates the per-bio-data accessor functions by needing to conditonally add extra padding to get to a target's per-bio-data. But in the end this provides a decent performance improvement for all bio-based DM devices. On an NVMe-loop based testbed to a ramdisk (~3100 MB/s): bio-based DM linear performance improved by 2% (went from 2665 to 2777 MB/s). Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
