blkcg: revert blkcg cleanups series

2018-11-02T01:59:53+00:00

This reverts a series committed earlier due to null pointer exception
bug report in [1]. It seems there are edge case interactions that I did
not consider and will need some time to understand what causes the
adverse interactions.

The original series can be found in [2] with a follow up series in [3].

cfq: clear queue pointers from cfqg after unpinning them in cfq_pd_offline

2018-10-11T17:46:19+00:00

BFQ is already doing a similar thing in its .pd_offline_fn() method
implementation.

While it seems that after commit 4c6994806f70
("blk-throttle: fix race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir()")
was reverted leaving these pointers intact no longer causes crashes
clearing them is still a sensible thing to do to make the code more robust.

blkcg: fix ref count issue with bio_blkcg using task_css

2018-09-22T02:29:02+00:00

The accessor function bio_blkcg either returns the blkcg associated with
the bio or finds one in the current context. This can cause an issue
when trying to associate a bio with a blkcg. Particularly, it's the
third case that is problematic:

	return css_to_blkcg(task_css(current, io_cgrp_id));

As the above may race against task migration and the cgroup exiting, it
is not always ok to take a reference on the blkcg returned from
bio_blkcg.

This patch adds association ahead of calling bio_blkcg rather than
after. This makes association a required and explicit step along the
code paths for calling bio_blkcg. blk_get_rl is modified as well to get
a reference to the blkcg it may use and blk_put_rl will always put the
reference back. Association is also moved above the bio_blkcg call to
ensure it will not return NULL in blk-iolatency.

BFQ and CFQ utilize this flaw, but due to the complexity, I do not want
to address this in this series. I've created a private version of the
function with notes not to use it describing the flaw. Hopefully soon,
that code can be cleaned up.

cfq: Suppress compiler warnings about comparisons

block drivers/block: Use octal not symbolic permissions

2018-05-24T19:38:59+00:00

Convert the S_ symbolic permissions to their octal equivalents as
using octal and not symbolic permissions is preferred by many as more
readable.

see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/2/1945

Done with automated conversion via:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace 

Miscellanea:

o Wrapped modified multi-line calls to a single line where appropriate
o Realign modified multi-line calls to open parenthesis

block: consolidate struct request timestamp fields

2018-05-09T14:33:09+00:00

Currently, struct request has four timestamp fields:

- A start time, set at get_request time, in jiffies, used for iostats
- An I/O start time, set at start_request time, in ktime nanoseconds,
  used for blk-stats (i.e., wbt, kyber, hybrid polling)
- Another start time and another I/O start time, used for cfq and bfq

These can all be consolidated into one start time and one I/O start
time, both in ktime nanoseconds, shaving off up to 16 bytes from struct
request depending on the kernel config.

block: use ktime_get_ns() instead of sched_clock() for cfq and bfq

2018-05-09T14:33:06+00:00

cfq and bfq have some internal fields that use sched_clock() which can
trivially use ktime_get_ns() instead. Their timestamp fields in struct
request can also use ktime_get_ns(), which resolves the 8 year old
comment added by commit 28f4197e5d47 ("block: disable preemption before
using sched_clock()").

block/cfq: cache rightmost rb_node

2017-09-09T01:26:49+00:00

For the same reasons we already cache the leftmost pointer, apply the same
optimization for rb_last() calls.  Users must explicitly do this as
rb_root_cached only deals with the smallest node.
