854f31ccdd block: fix deadline elevator drain for zoned block devices
When the deadline scheduler is used with a zoned block device, writes
to a zone will be dispatched one at a time. This causes the warning
message:

deadline: forced dispatching is broken (nr_sorted=X), please report this

to be displayed when switching to another elevator with the legacy I/O
path while write requests to a zone are being retained in the scheduler
queue.

Prevent this message from being displayed when executing
elv_drain_elevator() for a zoned block device. __blk_drain_queue() will
loop until all writes are dispatched and completed, resulting in the
desired elevator queue drain without extensive modifications to the
deadline code itself to handle forced-dispatch calls.

d48ece209f blk-mq: init hctx sched after update ctx and hctx mapping
Currently, when update nr_hw_queues, IO scheduler's init_hctx will
be invoked before the mapping between ctx and hctx is adapted
correctly by blk_mq_map_swqueue. The IO scheduler init_hctx (kyber)
may depend on this mapping and get wrong result and panic finally.
A simply way to fix this is that switch the IO scheduler to 'none'
before update the nr_hw_queues, and then switch it back after
update nr_hw_queues. blk_mq_sched_init_/exit_hctx are removed due
to nobody use them any more.

24f5a90f0d blk-mq: quiesce queue during switching io sched and updating nr_requests
Dispatch may still be in-progress after queue is frozen, so we have to
quiesce queue before switching IO scheduler and updating nr_requests.

Also when switching io schedulers, blk_mq_run_hw_queue() may still be
called somewhere(such as from nvme_reset_work()), and io scheduler's
per-hctx data may not be setup yet, so cause oops even inside
blk_mq_hctx_has_pending(), such as it can be run just between:

        ret = e->ops.mq.init_sched(q, e);
AND
        ret = e->ops.mq.init_hctx(hctx, i)

inside blk_mq_init_sched().

This reverts commit 7a148c2fcff8330(block: don't call blk_mq_quiesce_queue()
after queue is frozen) basically, and makes sure blk_mq_hctx_has_pending
won't be called if queue is quiesced.

The elevator= parameter is deprecated and only supported for

pass in if we're looking for an mq capable scheduler or not,
so that we only ever return a valid type for the queue in
question.

e9a823fb34 block: fix warning when I/O elevator is changed as request_queue is being removed
There is a race between changing I/O elevator and request_queue removal
which can trigger the warning in kobject_add_internal.  A program can
use sysfs to request a change of elevator at the same time another task
is unregistering the request_queue the elevator would be attached to.
The elevator's kobject will then attempt to be connected to the
request_queue in the object tree when the request_queue has just been
removed from sysfs.  This triggers the warning in kobject_add_internal
as the request_queue no longer has a sysfs directory:

kobject_add_internal failed for iosched (error: -2 parent: queue)
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 14075 at lib/kobject.c:244 kobject_add_internal+0x103/0x2d0

To fix this warning, we can check the QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED flag when
changing the elevator and use the request_queue's sysfs_lock to
serialize between clearing the flag and the elevator testing the flag.

694752922b Merge branch 'for-4.12/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:

 - Add BFQ IO scheduler under the new blk-mq scheduling framework. BFQ
   was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement
   fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant
   to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness.
   From Paolo.

 - Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler,
   using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on
   live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.

 - A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing
   devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life
   times, solving various problems with hot removal.

 - A series of updates for lightnvm, mostly from Javier. Includes a
   'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block
   device.

 - A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.

 - A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
   legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
   queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
   more than a decade.

 - Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
   windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
   register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.

 - blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
   framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
   blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
   marked experimental for now.

 - Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves
   efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size
   IO.

 - A few fixes for opal, from Scott.

 - A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics.
   From a variety of folks, mostly Sagi and James Smart.

 - A series from Bart, improving our exposed info and capabilities from
   the blk-mq debugfs support.

 - A series from Christoph, cleaning up how handle WRITE_ZEROES.

 - A series from Christoph, cleaning up the block layer handling of how
   we track errors in a request. On top of being a nice cleanup, it also
   shrinks the size of struct request a bit.

 - Removal of mg_disk and hd (sorry Linus) by Christoph. The former was
   never used by platforms, and the latter has outlived it's usefulness.

 - Various little bug fixes and cleanups from a wide variety of folks.

ef295ecf09 block: better op and flags encoding
Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields.  This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.

In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.

Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits.  Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

72ef799b3f block: do not merge requests without consulting with io scheduler
Before merging a bio into an existing request, io scheduler is called to
get its approval first. However, the requests that come from a plug
flush may get merged by block layer without consulting with io
scheduler.

In case of CFQ, this can cause fairness problems. For instance, if a
request gets merged into a low weight cgroup's request, high weight cgroup
now will depend on low weight cgroup to get scheduled. If high weigt cgroup
needs that io request to complete before submitting more requests, then it
will also lose its timeslice.

Following script demonstrates the problem. Group g1 has a low weight, g2
and g3 have equal high weights but g2's requests are adjacent to g1's
requests so they are subject to merging. Due to these merges, g2 gets
poor disk time allocation.

0bb979472a cfq-iosched: fix the setting of IOPS mode on SSDs
A previous commit wanted to make CFQ default to IOPS mode on
non-rotational storage, however it did so when the queue was
initialized and the non-rotational flag is only set later on
in the probe.

Add an elevator hook that gets called off the add_disk() path,
at that point we know that feature probing has finished, and
we can reliably check for the various flags that drivers can
set.

elevator_init_fn can be either cfq_init_queue or deadline_init_queue

all three of these functions are returning -ENOMEM if they fail to
allocate the queue.
so we should actually be returning the error code rather than
