[PATCH v4 0/7] per-cpu in_flight counters for bio-based drivers

[PATCH v4 0/7] per-cpu in_flight counters for bio-based drivers

[Mike Snitzer]

Hey,

This v4 addresses the compile issues on various archs when CONFIG_SMP
isn't set (by introducing appropriate wrappers in genhd.h)

Testing with this v4 I was unable to reproduce the issue you reported
where iostat always reports 0 for avgqu-sz -- but please let me know
if you still see problems like that.

Thanks,
Mike

[PATCH v4 1/7] dm: dont rewrite dm_disk(md)->part0.in_flight

[Mike Snitzer]

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

generic_start_io_acct and generic_end_io_acct already update the variable
in_flight using atomic operations, so we don't have to overwrite them
again.

[PATCH v4 2/7] dm rq: leverage blk_mq_queue_busy() to check for outstanding IO

[Mike Snitzer]

Now that request-based dm-multipath only supports blk-mq, make use of
the newly introduced blk_mq_queue_busy() to check for outstanding IO --
rather than (ab)using the block core's in_flight counters.

[PATCH v4 3/7] block: stop passing 'cpu' to all percpu stats methods

[Mike Snitzer]

All of part_stat_* and related methods are used with preempt disabled,
so there is no need to pass cpu around to allow of them.  Just call
smp_processor_id() as needed.

[PATCH v4 4/7] block: delete part_round_stats and switch to less precise counting

[Mike Snitzer]

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

We want to convert to per-cpu in_flight counters.

The function part_round_stats needs the in_flight counter every jiffy, it
would be too costly to sum all the percpu variables every jiffy, so it
must be deleted. part_round_stats is used to calculate two counters -
time_in_queue and io_ticks.

time_in_queue can be calculated without part_round_stats, by adding the
duration of the I/O when the I/O ends (the value is almost as exact as the
previously calculated value, except that time for in-progress I/Os is not
counted).

io_ticks can be approximated by increasing the value when I/O is started
or ended and the jiffies value has changed. If the I/Os take less than a
jiffy, the value is as exact as the previously calculated value. If the
I/Os take more than a jiffy, io_ticks can drift behind the previously
calculated value.

[PATCH v4 5/7] block: switch to per-cpu in-flight counters

[Mike Snitzer]

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

Now when part_round_stats is gone, we can switch to per-cpu in-flight
counters.

We use the local-atomic type local_t, so that if part_inc_in_flight or
part_dec_in_flight is reentrantly called from an interrupt, the value will
be correct.

The other counters could be corrupted due to reentrant interrupt, but the
corruption only results in slight counter skew - the in_flight counter
must be exact, so it needs local_t.

[PATCH v4 6/7] block: return just one value from part_in_flight

[Mike Snitzer]

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

The previous patches deleted all the code that needed the second value
returned from part_in_flight - now the kernel only uses the first value.

Consequently, part_in_flight (and blk_mq_in_flight) may be changed so that
it only returns one value.

This patch just refactors the code, there's no functional change.

[PATCH v4 7/7] dm: remove the pending IO accounting

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

Remove the "pending" atomic counters, that duplicate block-core's
in_flight counters, and update md_in_flight() to look at percpu
in_flight counters.

I ran blktests and both block/017 and block/018 fail due to this
patchset's changes, I'm still trying to grok what the test result is
_saying_ but I'll hopefully get there soon:

Interestingly the 017 test is only testing blk-mq (using null_blk's
queue_mode=2).  This patchset's changes are specific to bio-based.

If I revert this patchset I still get the failures.

So it would seem something regressed in latest block for-next (I've been
testing up through linux-block commit c754a9bf7ee8 ("blk-mq: remove
QUEUE_FLAG_POLL from default MQ flags").

Same goes for this block/018 test.

Looks good to me, and also passes my testing. Dropped the mq special
cases and used this in general, also works fine. I was hoping we could
get rid of the tag iteration with this, but that still seems to be more
efficient for blk-mq. But at least we're better off for stacked devices
with this.
