<content type='text'>
There are mq devices (eg., virtio-blk, nbd and loopback) which don't
invoke blk_mq_run_hw_queues() after the completion of a request.
If bfq is enabled on these devices and the slice_idle attribute or
strict_guarantees attribute is set as zero, it is possible that
after a request completion the remaining requests of busy bfq queue
will stalled in the bfq schedule until a new request arrives.

To fix the scheduler latency problem, we need to check whether or not
all issued requests have completed and dispatch more requests to driver
if there is no request in driver.

The problem can be reproduced by running the following script
on a virtio-blk device with nr_hw_queues as 1:

#!/bin/sh

dev=vdb
# mount point for dev
mp=/tmp/mnt
cd $mp

job=strict.job
cat &lt;&lt;EOF &gt; $job
[global]
direct=1
bs=4k
size=256M
rw=write
ioengine=libaio
iodepth=128
runtime=5
time_based

[1]
filename=1.data

[2]
new_group
filename=2.data
EOF

echo bfq &gt; /sys/block/$dev/queue/scheduler
echo 1 &gt; /sys/block/$dev/queue/iosched/strict_guarantees

bio_free isn't a good place to free cgroup info. There are a
lot of cases bio is allocated in special way (for example, in stack) and
never gets called by bio_put hence bio_free, we are leaking memory. This
patch moves the free to bio endio, which should be called anyway. The
bio_uninit call in bio_free is kept, in case the bio never gets called
bio endio.

This assumes -&gt;bi_end_io() doesn't access cgroup info, which seems true
in my audit.

This along with Christoph's integrity patch should fix the memory leak
issue.

<content type='text'>
The BIO issuing loop in __blkdev_issue_zeroout() is allocating BIOs
with a maximum number of bvec (pages) equal to

min(nr_sects, (sector_t)BIO_MAX_PAGES)

This works since the requested number of bvecs will always be limited
to the absolute maximum number supported (BIO_MAX_PAGES), but this is
ineficient as too many bvec entries may be requested due to the
different units being used in the min() operation (number of sectors vs
number of pages).
To fix this, introduce the helper __blkdev_sectors_to_bio_pages() to
correctly calculate the number of bvecs for zeroout BIOs as the issuing
loop progresses. The calculation is done using consistent units and
makes sure that the number of pages return is at least 1 (for cases
where the number of sectors is less that the number of sectors in
a page).

Also remove a trailing space after the bit shift in the internal loop
min() call.

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The irq department delivers:

   - Expand the generic infrastructure handling the irq migration on CPU
     hotplug and convert X86 over to it. (Thomas Gleixner)

     Aside of consolidating code this is a preparatory change for:

   - Finalizing the affinity management for multi-queue devices. The
     main change here is to shut down interrupts which are affine to a
     outgoing CPU and reenabling them when the CPU comes online again.
     That avoids moving interrupts pointlessly around and breaking and
     reestablishing affinities for no value. (Christoph Hellwig)

     Note: This contains also the BLOCK-MQ and NVME changes which depend
     on the rework of the irq core infrastructure. Jens acked them and
     agreed that they should go with the irq changes.

   - Consolidation of irq domain code (Marc Zyngier)

   - State tracking consolidation in the core code (Jeffy Chen)

   - Add debug infrastructure for hierarchical irq domains (Thomas
     Gleixner)

   - Infrastructure enhancement for managing generic interrupt chips via
     devmem (Bartosz Golaszewski)

   - Constification work all over the place (Tobias Klauser)

   - Two new interrupt controller drivers for MVEBU (Thomas Petazzoni)

   - The usual set of fixes, updates and enhancements all over the
     place"

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The irq department delivers:

   - Expand the generic infrastructure handling the irq migration on CPU
     hotplug and convert X86 over to it. (Thomas Gleixner)

     Aside of consolidating code this is a preparatory change for:

   - Finalizing the affinity management for multi-queue devices. The
     main change here is to shut down interrupts which are affine to a
     outgoing CPU and reenabling them when the CPU comes online again.
     That avoids moving interrupts pointlessly around and breaking and
     reestablishing affinities for no value. (Christoph Hellwig)

     Note: This contains also the BLOCK-MQ and NVME changes which depend
     on the rework of the irq core infrastructure. Jens acked them and
     agreed that they should go with the irq changes.

   - Consolidation of irq domain code (Marc Zyngier)

   - State tracking consolidation in the core code (Jeffy Chen)

   - Add debug infrastructure for hierarchical irq domains (Thomas
     Gleixner)

   - Infrastructure enhancement for managing generic interrupt chips via
     devmem (Bartosz Golaszewski)

   - Constification work all over the place (Tobias Klauser)

   - Two new interrupt controller drivers for MVEBU (Thomas Petazzoni)

   - The usual set of fixes, updates and enhancements all over the
     place"

<title>bio-integrity: Restore original iterator on verify stage</title>

Currently -&gt;verify_fn not woks at all because at the moment it is called
bio-&gt;bi_iter.bi_size == 0, so we do not iterate integrity bvecs at all.

In order to perform verification we need to know original data vector,
with new bvec rewind API this is trivial.
