Both the cache flush state machine and the SCSI midlayer want to submit requests from irq context, and the current per-request requeue_work unfortunately causes corruption due to sharing with the csd field for flushes. Replace them with a per-request_queue list of requests to be requeued. Based on an earlier test by Ming Lei.

Right now we export two ways of completing a request: 1) blk_mq_complete_request(). This uses an IPI (if needed) and completes through q->softirq_done_fn(). It also works with timeouts. 2) blk_mq_end_io(). This completes inline, and ignores any timeout state of the request. Let blk_mq_complete_request() handle non-softirq_done_fn completions as well, by just completing inline. If a driver has enough completion ports to place completions correctly, it need not define a mq_ops->complete() and we can avoid an indirect function call by doing the completion inline.

Drivers currently have to figure this out on their own, and they are missing information to do it properly. The ones that did attempt to do it, do it wrong. So just pass in the suggested node directly to the alloc function. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

Currently blk-mq uses the queue timeout for all requests. But for some commands, drivers may want to set a specific timeout for special requests. Allow this to be passed in through request->timeout, and use it if set. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

We want slightly different behavior from them: - On single queue devices, we currently use the per-process plug for deferred IO and for merging. - On multi queue devices, we don't use the per-process plug, but we want to go straight to hardware for SYNC IO. Split blk_mq_make_request() into a blk_sq_make_request() for single queue devices, and retain blk_mq_make_request() for multi queue devices. Then we don't need multiple checks for q->nr_hw_queues in the request mapping. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

Depending on the topology of the machine and the number of queues exposed by a device, we can end up in a situation where some of the hardware queues are unused (as in, they don't map to any software queues). For this case, free up the memory used by the request map, as we will not use it. This can be a substantial amount of memory, depending on the number of queues vs CPUs and the queue depth of the device. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

For request_fn based devices, the block layer exports a 'nr_requests' file through sysfs to allow adjusting of queue depth on the fly. Currently this returns -EINVAL for blk-mq, since it's not wired up. Wire this up for blk-mq, so that it now also always dynamic adjustments of the allowed queue depth for any given block device managed by blk-mq. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

Each hardware queue has a bitmap of software queues with pending requests. When new IO is queued on a software queue, the bit is set, and when IO is pruned on a hardware queue run, the bit is cleared. This causes a lot of traffic. Switch this from the regular BITS_PER_LONG bitmap to a sparser layout, similarly to what was done for blk-mq tagging. 20% performance increase was observed for single threaded IO, and about 15% performanc increase on multiple threads driving the same device.

This adds support for active queue tracking, meaning that the blk-mq tagging maintains a count of active users of a tag set. This allows us to maintain a notion of fairness between users, so that we can distribute the tag depth evenly without starving some users while allowing others to try unfair deep queues. If sharing of a tag set is detected, each hardware queue will track the depth of its own queue. And if this exceeds the total depth divided by the number of active queues, the user is actively throttled down. The active queue count is done lazily to avoid bouncing that data between submitter and completer. Each hardware queue gets marked active when it allocates its first tag, and gets marked inactive when 1) the last tag is cleared, and 2) the queue timeout grace period has passed.

For best performance, spreading tags over multiple cachelines makes the tagging more efficient on multicore systems. But since we have 8 * sizeof(unsigned long) tags per cacheline, we don't always get a nice spread. Attempt to spread the tags over at least 4 cachelines, using fewer number of bits per unsigned long if we have to. This improves tagging performance in setups with 32-128 tags. For higher depths, the spread is the same as before (BITS_PER_LONG tags per cacheline). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

blk-mq currently uses percpu_ida for tag allocation. But that only works well if the ratio between tag space and number of CPUs is sufficiently high. For most devices and systems, that is not the case. The end result if that we either only utilize the tag space partially, or we end up attempting to fully exhaust it and run into lots of lock contention with stealing between CPUs. This is not optimal. This new tagging scheme is a hybrid bitmap allocator. It uses two tricks to both be SMP friendly and allow full exhaustion of the space: 1) We cache the last allocated (or freed) tag on a per blk-mq software context basis. This allows us to limit the space we have to search. The key element here is not caching it in the shared tag structure, otherwise we end up dirtying more shared cache lines on each allocate/free operation. 2) The tag space is split into cache line sized groups, and each context will start off randomly in that space. Even up to full utilization of the space, this divides the tag users efficiently into cache line groups, avoiding dirtying the same one both between allocators and between allocator and freeer. This scheme shows drastically better behaviour, both on small tag spaces but on large ones as well. It has been tested extensively to show better performance for all the cases blk-mq cares about.
