[PATCH 0/5] Updates following recent generic_make_request improvement

[NeilBrown]

This is a rebase of the series I sent earlier, based on the
very latest from Linus, which included my first patch.

The first fixes a problem that patch introduced, and so should go to
Linux promptly.
The others are more general improvements and can go in the normal
course of events.

It is possible that the changes to btrfs and xfs can just be dropped
as a subsequent patch will be needed to revert them anyway.  They are
there only to be able to say that "blk: make the bioset
rescue_workqueue optional." doesn't change any functionality at all.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

[PATCH 5/5] block_dev: make blkdev_dio_pool a non-rescuing bioset

[NeilBrown]

Allocations from blkdev_dio_pool are never made under
generic_make_request, so this bioset does not need a rescuer thread.

[PATCH 4/5] blk: use non-rescuing bioset for q->bio_split.

[NeilBrown]

A rescuing bioset is only useful if there might be bios from
that same bioset on the bio_list_on_stack queue at a time
when bio_alloc_bioset() is called.  This never applies to
q->bio_split.

Allocations from q->bio_split are only ever made from
blk_queue_split() which is only ever called early in each of
various make_request_fn()s.  The original bio (call this A)
is then passed to generic_make_request() and is placed on
the bio_list_on_stack queue, and the bio that was allocated
from q->bio_split (B) is processed.

The processing of this may cause other bios to be passed to
generic_make_request() or may even cause the bio B itself to
be passed, possible after some prefix has been split off
(using some other bioset).

generic_make_request() now guarantees that all of these bios
(B and dependants) will be fully processed before the tail
of the original bio A gets handled.  None of these early bios
can possible trigger an allocation from the original
q->bio_split as they are either too small to require
splitting or (more likely) are destined for a different queue.

The next time that the original q->bio_split might be used
by this thread is when A is processed again, as it might
still be too big to handle directly.  By this time there
cannot be any other bios allocated from q->bio_split in the
generic_make_request() queue.  So no rescuing will ever be
needed.

[PATCH 1/5] blk: Ensure users for current->bio_list can see the full list.

[NeilBrown]

Commit 79bd99596b73 ("blk: improve order of bio handling in generic_make_request()")
changed current->bio_list so that it did not contain *all* of the
queued bios, but only those submitted by the currently running
make_request_fn.

There are two places which walk the list and requeue selected bios,
and others that check if the list is empty.  These are no longer
correct.

So redefine current->bio_list to point to an array of two lists, which
contain all queued bios, and adjust various code to test or walk both
lists.

[PATCH 2/5] blk: remove bio_set arg from blk_queue_split()

[NeilBrown]

blk_queue_split() is always called with the last arg being q->bio_split,
where 'q' is the first arg.

Also blk_queue_split() sometimes uses the passed-in 'bs' and sometimes uses
q->bio_split.

This is inconsistent and unnecessary.  Remove the last arg and always use
q->bio_split inside blk_queue_split()

[PATCH 3/5] blk: make the bioset rescue_workqueue optional.

[NeilBrown]

This patch converts bioset_create() and bioset_create_nobvec()
to not create a workqueue so alloctions will never trigger
punt_bios_to_rescuer().
It also introduces bioset_create_rescued() and bioset_create_nobvec_rescued()
which preserve the old behaviour.

*All* callers of bioset_create() and bioset_create_nobvec() are
converted to the _rescued() version, so that no change in behaviour
is experienced.

It is hoped that most, if not all, biosets can end up being the
non-rescued version.

I have applied the first patch for this series, and added the Fixes
tag. We'll let the rest simmer a bit, then aim for 4.12 for those.
