A recent commit runs tag iterator callbacks under the rcu read lock,
but existing callbacks do not satisfy the non-blocking requirement.
The commit intended to prevent an iterator from accessing a queue that's
being modified. This patch fixes the original issue by taking a queue
reference instead of reading it, which allows callbacks to make blocking
calls.

For blk-mq, part_in_flight/rw will invoke blk_mq_in_flight/rw to
account the inflight requests. It will access the queue_hw_ctx and
nr_hw_queues w/o any protection. When updating nr_hw_queues and
blk_mq_in_flight/rw occur concurrently, panic comes up.
Before update nr_hw_queues, the q will be frozen. So we could use
q_usage_counter to avoid the race. percpu_ref_is_zero is used here
so that we will not miss any in-flight request. The access to
nr_hw_queues and queue_hw_ctx in blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter are
under rcu critical section, __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues could use
synchronize_rcu to ensure the zeroed q_usage_counter to be globally
visible.

Currently, we count the hctx as active after allocate driver tag
successfully. If a previously inactive hctx try to get tag first
time, it may fails and need to wait. However, due to the stale tag
->active_queues, the other shared-tags users are still able to
occupy all driver tags while there is someone waiting for tag.
Consequently, even if the previously inactive hctx is waked up, it
still may not be able to get a tag and could be starved.
To fix it, we count the hctx as active before try to allocate driver
tag, then when it is waiting the tag, the other shared-tag users
will reserve budget for it.

The passed 'nr' from userspace represents the total depth, meantime
inside 'struct blk_mq_tags', 'nr_tags' stores the total tag depth,
and 'nr_reserved_tags' stores the reserved part.
There are two issues in blk_mq_tag_update_depth() now:
1) for growing tags, we should have used the passed 'nr', and keep the
number of reserved tags not changed.
2) the passed 'nr' should have been used for checking against
'tags->nr_tags', instead of number of the normal part.
This patch fixes the above two cases, and avoids kernel crash caused
by wrong resizing sbitmap queue.

When the allocation process is scheduled back and the mapped hw queue is
changed, fake one extra wake up on previous queue for compensating wake
up miss, so other allocations on the previous queue won't be starved.
This patch fixes one request allocation hang issue, which can be
triggered easily in case of very low nr_request.
The race is as follows:
1) 2 hw queues, nr_requests are 2, and wake_batch is one
2) there are 3 waiters on hw queue 0
3) two in-flight requests in hw queue 0 are completed, and only two
waiters of 3 are waken up because of wake_batch, but both the two
waiters can be scheduled to another CPU and cause to switch to hw
queue 1
4) then the 3rd waiter will wait for ever, since no in-flight request
is in hw queue 0 any more.
5) this patch fixes it by the fake wakeup when waiter is scheduled to
another hw queue

Even with a number of waitqueues, we can get into a situation where we
are heavily contended on the waitqueue lock. I got a report on spc1
where we're spending seconds doing this. Arguably the use case is nasty,
I reproduce it with one device and 1000 threads banging on the device.
But that doesn't mean we shouldn't be handling it better.
What ends up happening is that a thread will fail to get a tag, add
itself to the waitqueue, and subsequently get woken up when a tag is
freed - only to find itself going back to sleep on the waitqueue.
Instead of waking all threads, use an exclusive wait and wake up our
sbitmap batch count instead. This seems to work well for me (massive
improvement for this use case), and it survives basic testing. But I
haven't fully verified it yet.
An additional improvement is running the queue and checking for a new
tag BEFORE needing to add ourselves to the waitqueue.

Since we introduced blk-mq-sched, the tags->rqs[] array has been
dynamically assigned. So we need to check for NULL when iterating,
since there's a window of time where the bit is set, but we haven't
dynamically assigned the tags->rqs[] array position yet.
This is perfectly safe, since the memory backing of the request is
never going away while the device is alive.

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".
Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.
This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.
This patch then converts a number of sites
o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.
o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.
o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
flag manipulations.
o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.
The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.
The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the core block pull request for 4.4. I've got a few more
topic branches this time around, some of them will layer on top of the
core+drivers changes and will come in a separate round. So not a huge
chunk of changes in this round.
This pull request contains:
- Enable blk-mq page allocation tracking with kmemleak, from Catalin.
- Unused prototype removal in blk-mq from Christoph.
- Cleanup of the q->blk_trace exchange, using cmpxchg instead of two
xchg()'s, from Davidlohr.
- A plug flush fix from Jeff.
- Also from Jeff, a fix that means we don't have to update shared tag
sets at init time unless we do a state change. This cuts down boot
times on thousands of devices a lot with scsi/blk-mq.
- blk-mq waitqueue barrier fix from Kosuke.
- Various fixes from Ming:
- Fixes for segment merging and splitting, and checks, for
the old core and blk-mq.
- Potential blk-mq speedup by marking ctx pending at the end
of a plug insertion batch in blk-mq.
- direct-io no page dirty on kernel direct reads.
- A WRITE_SYNC fix for mpage from Roman"
* 'for-4.4/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
blk-mq: avoid excessive boot delays with large lun counts
blktrace: re-write setting q->blk_trace
blk-mq: mark ctx as pending at batch in flush plug path
blk-mq: fix for trace_block_plug()
block: check bio_mergeable() early before merging
blk-mq: check bio_mergeable() early before merging
block: avoid to merge splitted bio
block: setup bi_phys_segments after splitting
block: fix plug list flushing for nomerge queues
blk-mq: remove unused blk_mq_clone_flush_request prototype
blk-mq: fix waitqueue_active without memory barrier in block/blk-mq-tag.c
fs: direct-io: don't dirtying pages for ITER_BVEC/ITER_KVEC direct read
fs/mpage.c: forgotten WRITE_SYNC in case of data integrity write
block: kmemleak: Track the page allocations for struct request
tags is freed in blk_mq_free_rq_map() and should not be used after that.
The problem doesn't manifest if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is false because
free_cpumask_var() is nop.
tags->cpumask is allocated in blk_mq_init_tags() so it's natural to
free cpumask in its counter part, blk_mq_free_tags().

blk_mq_tag_update_depth() seems to be missing a memory barrier which
might cause the waker to not notice the waiter and fail to send a
wake_up as in the following figure.
blk_mq_tag_update_depth bt_get
------------------------------------------------------------------------
if (waitqueue_active(&bs->wait))
/* The CPU might reorder the test for
the waitqueue up here, before
prior writes complete */
prepare_to_wait(&bs->wait, &wait,
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
tag = __bt_get(hctx, bt, last_tag,
tags);
/* Value set in bt_update_count not
visible yet */
bt_update_count(&tags->bitmap_tags, tdepth);
/* blk_mq_tag_wakeup_all(tags, false); */
bt = &tags->bitmap_tags;
wake_index = atomic_read(&bt->wake_index);
...
io_schedule();
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This patch adds the missing memory barrier.
I found this issue when I was looking through the linux source code
for places calling waitqueue_active() before wake_up*(), but without
preceding memory barriers, after sending a patch to fix a similar
issue in drivers/tty/n_tty.c (Details about the original issue can be
found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/9/28/849).

And replace the blk_mq_tag_busy_iter with it - the driver use has been
replaced with a new helper a while ago, and internal to the block we
only need the new version.

Storage controllers may expose multiple block devices that share hardware
resources managed by blk-mq. This patch enhances the shared tags so a
low-level driver can access the shared resources not tied to the unshared
h/w contexts. This way the LLD can dynamically add and delete disks and
request queues without having to track all the request_queue hctx's to
iterate outstanding tags.

When allocating from the reserved tags pool, bt_get() is called with
a NULL hctx. If all tags are in use, the hw queue is kicked to push
out any pending IO, potentially freeing tags, and tag allocation is
retried. The problem is that blk_mq_run_hw_queue() doesn't check for
a NULL hctx. So we avoid it with a simple NULL hctx test.
Tested by hammering mtip32xx with concurrent smartctl/hdparm.

Added appropriate comment.

If the allocation of bt->bs fails, then bt->map can be freed twice, once
in blk_mq_init_bitmap_tags() -> bt_alloc(), and once in
blk_mq_init_bitmap_tags() -> bt_free(). Fix by setting the pointer to
NULL after the first free.

This is the blk-mq part to support tag allocation policy. The default
allocation policy isn't changed (though it's not a strict FIFO). The new
policy is round-robin for libata. But it's a try-best implementation. If
multiple tasks are competing, the tags returned will be mixed (which is
unavoidable even with !mq, as requests from different tasks can be
mixed in queue)

The blk-mq tagging tries to maintain some locality between CPUs and
the tags issued. The tags are split into groups of words, and the
words may not be fully populated. When searching for a new free tag,
blk-mq may look at partial words, hence it passes in an offset/size
to find_next_zero_bit(). However, it does that wrong, the size must
always be the full length of the number of tags in that word,
otherwise we'll potentially miss some near the end.
Another issue is when __bt_get() goes from one word set to the next.
It bumps the index, but not the last_tag associated with the
previous index. Bump that to be in the range of the new word.
Finally, clean up __bt_get() and __bt_get_word() a bit and get
rid of the goto in there, and the unnecessary 'wrap' variable.

If it's dying, we can't expect new request to complete and come
in an wake up other tasks waiting for requests. So after we
have marked it as dying, wake up everybody currently waiting
for a request. Once they wake, they will retry their allocation
and fail appropriately due to the state of the queue.

This reverts commit 52f7eb945f.
The optimization is only really safe for a single queue, otherwise
'bs' and 'bt' can indeed change, and if we don't do a finish_wait()
for each loop, we'll potentially change the wait structure and
corrupt task wait list.

Pull block driver core update from Jens Axboe:
"This is the pull request for the core block IO changes for 3.19. Not
a huge round this time, mostly lots of little good fixes:
- Fix a bug in sysfs blktrace interface causing a NULL pointer
dereference, when enabled/disabled through that API. From Arianna
Avanzini.
- Various updates/fixes/improvements for blk-mq:
- A set of updates from Bart, mostly fixing buts in the tag
handling.
- Cleanup/code consolidation from Christoph.
- Extend queue_rq API to be able to handle batching issues of IO
requests. NVMe will utilize this shortly. From me.
- A few tag and request handling updates from me.
- Cleanup of the preempt handling for running queues from Paolo.
- Prevent running of unmapped hardware queues from Ming Lei.
- Move the kdump memory limiting check to be in the correct
location, from Shaohua.
- Initialize all software queues at init time from Takashi. This
prevents a kobject warning when CPUs are brought online that
weren't online when a queue was registered.
- Single writeback fix for I_DIRTY clearing from Tejun. Queued with
the core IO changes, since it's just a single fix.
- Version X of the __bio_add_page() segment addition retry from
Maurizio. Hope the Xth time is the charm.
- Documentation fixup for IO scheduler merging from Jan.
- Introduce (and use) generic IO stat accounting helpers for non-rq
drivers, from Gu Zheng.
- Kill off artificial limiting of max sectors in a request from
Christoph"
