Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[BLOCK] Reimplement elevator switch This patch reimplements elevator switch. This patch assumes generic dispatch queue patchset is applied. * Each request is tagged with REQ_ELVPRIV flag if it has its elevator private data set. * Requests which doesn't have REQ_ELVPRIV flag set never enter iosched. They are always directly back inserted to dispatch queue. Of course, elevator_put_req_fn is called only for requests which have its REQ_ELVPRIV set. * Request queue maintains the current number of requests which have its elevator data set (elevator_set_req_fn called) in q->rq->elvpriv. * If a request queue has QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS set, elevator private data is not allocated for new requests. To switch to another iosched, we set QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS and wait until elvpriv goes to zero; then, we attach the new iosched and clears QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS. New implementation is much simpler and main code paths are less cluttered, IMHO. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

[PATCH] elevator: move the backmerging logic into the elevator core Right now, every IO scheduler implements its own backmerging (except for noop, which does no merging). That results in duplicated code for essentially the same operation, which is never a good thing. This patch moves the backmerging out of the io schedulers and into the elevator core. We save 1.6kb of text and as a bonus get backmerging for noop as well. Win-win! Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

[PATCH] elevator switching race There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be invoked with bad or NULL data. To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer. Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be run without the lock held. This isn't easily fixable, without also changing the mempool API. So split the initialization into two parts, and alloc-init operation and an attach operation. Then we can preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach inside the lock after we detach the old one.

[BLOCK] elevator: default choice selection My previous default iosched patch did a poor job dealing with the 'elevator=' boot-time option. The old behavior falls back to the compiled-in default if the requested one is not registered at boot time. This patch dynamically evaluates which default to use, and emits a suitable error message when the requested scheduler is not available. It also does the 'as' -> 'anticipatory' conversion before elevator registration, which along with a modified registration function, allows it to correctly indicate which default scheduler is in use.

[PATCH] Don't pass boot parameters to argv_init[] The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and parse_args(,unknown_bootoption). And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup(). start_kernel() -> parse_args() -> unknown_bootoption() -> obsolete_checksetup() If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was handled. If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other ->setup_func(). If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0, a parameter is seted to argv_init[]. Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app. If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit. This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

[PATCH] elevator switching race There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be invoked with bad or NULL data. To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer. Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be run without the lock held. This isn't easily fixable, without also changing the mempool API. So split the initialization into two parts, and alloc-init operation and an attach operation. Then we can preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach inside the lock after we detach the old one.

[BLOCK] Reimplement elevator switch This patch reimplements elevator switch. This patch assumes generic dispatch queue patchset is applied. * Each request is tagged with REQ_ELVPRIV flag if it has its elevator private data set. * Requests which doesn't have REQ_ELVPRIV flag set never enter iosched. They are always directly back inserted to dispatch queue. Of course, elevator_put_req_fn is called only for requests which have its REQ_ELVPRIV set. * Request queue maintains the current number of requests which have its elevator data set (elevator_set_req_fn called) in q->rq->elvpriv. * If a request queue has QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS set, elevator private data is not allocated for new requests. To switch to another iosched, we set QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS and wait until elvpriv goes to zero; then, we attach the new iosched and clears QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS. New implementation is much simpler and main code paths are less cluttered, IMHO. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

block: Skip I/O merges when disabled The block I/O + elevator + I/O scheduler code spend a lot of time trying to merge I/Os -- rightfully so under "normal" circumstances. However, if one were to know that the incoming I/O stream was /very/ random in nature, the cycles are wasted. This patch adds a per-request_queue tunable that (when set) disables merge attempts (beyond the simple one-hit cache check), thus freeing up a non-trivial amount of CPU cycles. Signed-off-by: Alan D.

This is both silly from a logical point of view (requeues typically happen due to driver/hardware shortage), and also dangerous since we could hit an endless request_fn -> requeue -> unplug -> request_fn loop and crash on stack overrun. Also limit blk_run_queue() to one level of recursion, similar to how blk_start_queue() works. This patch fixed a real problem with SLES10 and lpfc, and it could hit any SCSI lld that returns non-zero from it's ->queuecommand() handler.

[PATCH] elevator: move the backmerging logic into the elevator core Right now, every IO scheduler implements its own backmerging (except for noop, which does no merging). That results in duplicated code for essentially the same operation, which is never a good thing. This patch moves the backmerging out of the io schedulers and into the elevator core. We save 1.6kb of text and as a bonus get backmerging for noop as well. Win-win! Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

[PATCH] blk: fix dangling pointer access in __elv_add_request cfq's add_req_fn callback may invoke q->request_fn directly and depending on low-level driver used and timing, a queued request may be finished & deallocated before add_req_fn callback returns. So, __elv_add_request must not access rq after it's passed to add_req_fn callback. This patch moves rq_mergeable test above add_req_fn(). This may result in q->last_merge pointing to REQ_NOMERGE request if add_req_fn callback sets it but as RQ_NOMERGE is checked again when blk layer actually tries to merge requests, this does not cause any problem.

[PATCH] elevator: move clearing of unplug flag earlier A flag was recently added to the elevator code to avoid performing an unplug when reuests are being re-queued. The goal of this flag was to avoid a deep recursion that can occur when re-queueing requests after a SCSI device/host reset. See http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/17/254 However, that fix added the flag near the bottom of a case statement, where an earlier break (in an if statement) could transport one out of the case, without setting the flag. This patch sets the flag earlier in the case statement. I re-discovered the deep recursion recently during testing; I was told that it was a known problem, and the fix to it was in the kernel I was testing. Indeed it was ... but it didn't fix the bug. With the patch below, I no longer see the bug.

block: implement drain buffers These DMA drain buffer implementations in drivers are pretty horrible to do in terms of manipulating the scatterlist. Plus they're being done at least in drivers/ide and drivers/ata, so we now have code duplication. The one use case for this, as I understand it is AHCI controllers doing PIO mode to mmc devices but translating this to DMA at the controller level. So, what about adding a callback to the block layer that permits the adding of the drain buffer for the problem devices. The idea is that you'd do this in slave_configure after you find one of these devices. The beauty of doing it in the block layer is that it quietly adds the drain buffer to the end of the sg list, so it automatically gets mapped (and unmapped) without anything unusual having to be done to the scatterlist in driver/scsi or drivers/ata and without any alteration to the transfer length.

[PATCH] fix queue stalling while barrier sequencing If ordered tag isn't supported, request ordering for barrier sequencing is performed by queue draining, which basically hangs the request queue until elv_completed_request() reports completion of all previous fs requests. The condition check in elv_completed_request() was only performed for fs requests. If a special request is queued between the last to-be-drained request and the barrier sequence, draining is never completed and the queue is stalled forever.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[PATCH] elevator switching race There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be invoked with bad or NULL data. To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer. Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be run without the lock held. This isn't easily fixable, without also changing the mempool API. So split the initialization into two parts, and alloc-init operation and an attach operation. Then we can preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach inside the lock after we detach the old one. This patch has survived 30 minutes of 1 second io scheduler switching with a very busy io load. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

[BLOCK] elevator: default choice selection My previous default iosched patch did a poor job dealing with the 'elevator=' boot-time option. The old behavior falls back to the compiled-in default if the requested one is not registered at boot time. This patch dynamically evaluates which default to use, and emits a suitable error message when the requested scheduler is not available. It also does the 'as' -> 'anticipatory' conversion before elevator registration, which along with a modified registration function, allows it to correctly indicate which default scheduler is in use. Tested for a range of boot options on 2.6.16-rc1-mm2. Signed-off-by: Nate Diller <nate.diller@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Of course, elevator_put_req_fn is called only for requests which have its REQ_ELVPRIV set. * Request queue maintains the current number of requests which have its elevator data set (elevator_set_req_fn called) in q->rq->elvpriv. * If a request queue has QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS set, elevator private data is not allocated for new requests. To switch to another iosched, we set QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS and wait until elvpriv goes to zero; then, we attach the new iosched and clears QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS. New implementation is much simpler and main code paths are less cluttered, IMHO. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

[BLOCK] Implement elv_drain_elevator for improved switch error detection This patch adds request_queue->nr_sorted which keeps the number of requests in the iosched and implement elv_drain_elevator which performs forced dispatching. elv_drain_elevator checks whether iosched actually dispatches all requests it has and prints error message if it doesn't. As buggy forced dispatching can result in wrong barrier operations, I think this extra check is worthwhile. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

[PATCH] elevator switching race There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be invoked with bad or NULL data. To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer. Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be run without the lock held. This isn't easily fixable, without also changing the mempool API. So split the initialization into two parts, and alloc-init operation and an attach operation. Then we can preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach inside the lock after we detach the old one. This patch has survived 30 minutes of 1 second io scheduler switching with a very busy io load. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
