support for multi-range discard requests V3

support for multi-range discard requests V3

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi all,

this series adds support for merging discontiguous discard bios into a
single request if the driver supports it.  This reduces the number of
discards sent to the device by about a factor of 5-6 for typical
workloads on NVMe, and for slower devices that use I/O scheduling
the number will probably be even bigger but I've not implemented
that support yet.

Changes since V2:
  - really fix nr of NVMe ranges to 256
  - free range on error

Changes since V1:
  - hardcoded max ranges for NVMe to 255
  - minor cleanups

[PATCH 1/4] block: move req_set_nomerge to blk.h

[Christoph Hellwig]

This makes it available outside of blk-merge.c, and inlining such a trivial
helper seems pretty useful to start with.

[PATCH 3/4] block: optionally merge discontiguous discard bios into a single request

[Christoph Hellwig]

Add a new merge strategy that merges discard bios into a request until the
maximum number of discard ranges (or the maximum discard size) is reached
from the plug merging code.  I/O scheduler merging is not wired up yet
but might also be useful, although not for fast devices like NVMe which
are the only user for now.

Note that for now we don't support limiting the size of each discard range,
but if needed that can be added later.

[PATCH 3/4] block: optionally merge discontiguous discard bios into a single request

[Christoph Hellwig]

Add a new merge strategy that merges discard bios into a request until the
maximum number of discard ranges (or the maximum discard size) is reached
from the plug merging code.  I/O scheduler merging is not wired up yet
but might also be useful, although not for fast devices like NVMe which
are the only user for now.

Note that for now we don't support limiting the size of each discard range,
but if needed that can be added later.

This looks good to me. It's running testing now, but provided that
the tests are successful, we should get this queued up for 4.11.

support for multi-range discard requests V2

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi all,

this series adds support for merging discontiguous discard bios into a
single request if the driver supports it.  This reduces the number of
discards sent to the device by about a factor of 5-6 for typical
workloads on NVMe, and for slower devices that use I/O scheduling
the number will probably be even bigger but I've not implemented
that support yet.

Changes since V1:
    - hardcoded max ranges for NVMe to 255
    - minor cleanups

[PATCH 2/4] block: enumify ELEVATOR_*_MERGE

[Christoph Hellwig]

Switch these constants to an enum, and make let the compiler ensure that
all callers of blk_try_merge and elv_merge handle all potential values.

support for multi-range discard requests

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi all,

this series adds support for merging discontiguous discard bios into a
single request if the driver supports it.  This reduces the number of
discards sent to the device by about a factor of 5-6 for typical
workloads on NVMe, and for slower devices that use I/O scheduling
the number will probably be even bigger but I've not implemented
that support yet.

[PATCH 2/4] block: enumify ELEVATOR_*_MERGE

[Christoph Hellwig]

Switch these constants to an enum, and make let the compiler ensure that
all callers of blk_try_merge and elv_merge handle all potential values.
