git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: "Incremental fixes and a small feature addition on top of the main libnvdimm 4.12 pull request: - Geert noticed that tinyconfig was bloated by BLOCK selecting DAX. The size regression is fixed by moving all dax helpers into the dax-core and only specifying "select DAX" for FS_DAX and dax-capable drivers. He also asked for clarification of the NR_DEV_DAX config option which, on closer look, does not need to be a config option at all. Mike also throws in a DEV_DAX_PMEM fixup for good measure. - Ben's attention to detail on -stable patch submissions caught a case where the recent fixes to arch_copy_from_iter_pmem() missed a condition where we strand dirty data in the cache. This is tagged for -stable and will also be included in the rework of the pmem api to a proposed {memcpy,copy_user}_flushcache() interface for 4.13. - Vishal adds a feature that missed the initial pull due to pending review feedback. It allows the kernel to clear media errors when initializing a BTT (atomic sector update driver) instance on a pmem namespace. - Ross noticed that the dax_device + dax_operations conversion broke __dax_zero_page_range(). The nvdimm unit tests fail to check this path, but xfstests immediately trips over it. No excuse for missing this before submitting the 4.12 pull request. These all pass the nvdimm unit tests and an xfstests spot check. The set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: filesystem-dax: fix broken __dax_zero_page_range() conversion libnvdimm, btt: ensure that initializing metadata clears poison libnvdimm: add an atomic vs process context flag to rw_bytes x86, pmem: Fix cache flushing for iovec write < 8 bytes device-dax: kill NR_DEV_DAX block, dax: move "select DAX" from BLOCK to FS_DAX device-dax: Tell kbuild DEV_DAX_PMEM depends on DEV_DAX

When formatting NVMe to 512B/4K + T10 DIf/DIX, dd with split op returns "Input/output error". Looks block layer split the bio after calling bio_integrity_prep(bio). This patch fixes the issue.

2017-05-10block, bfq: stress that low_latency must be off to get max throughputPaolo Valente1-0/+5
The introduction of the BFQ and Kyber I/O schedulers has triggered a new wave of I/O benchmarks. Unfortunately, comments and discussions on these benchmarks confirm that there is still little awareness that it is very hard to achieve, at the same time, a low latency and a high throughput. In particular, virtually all benchmarks measure throughput, or throughput-related figures of merit, but, for BFQ, they use the scheduler in its default configuration. This configuration is geared, instead, toward a low latency. This is evidently a sign that BFQ documentation is still too unclear on this important aspect. This commit addresses this issue by stressing how BFQ configuration must be (easily) changed if the only goal is maximum throughput.

2017-05-08block, dax: move "select DAX" from BLOCK to FS_DAXDan Williams1-1/+0
For configurations that do not enable DAX filesystems or drivers, do not require the DAX core to be built. Given that the 'direct_access' method has been removed from 'block_device_operations', we can also go ahead and remove the block-related dax helper functions from fs/block_dev.c to drivers/dax/super.c. This keeps dax details out of the block layer and lets the DAX core be built as a module in the FS_DAX=n case. Filesystems need to include dax.h to call bdev_dax_supported().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last couple days, but the whole set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. Change summary: - Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of namespace modes or state. This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error" requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus devices. - Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations. This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent memory support. - 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event. Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally, fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for -stable. - ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

Originally, I tied debugfs registration/unregistration together with sysfs. There's no reason to do this, and it's getting in the way of letting schedulers define their own debugfs attributes. Instead, tie the debugfs registration to the lifetime of the structures themselves. The saner lifetimes mean we can also get rid of the extra mq directory and move everything one level up.

A large part of blk-mq-debugfs.c is file_operations and seq_file boilerplate. This sucks as is but will suck even more when schedulers can define their own debugfs entries. Factor it all out into a single blk_mq_debugfs_fops which multiplexes as needed.

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.

2017-04-28blk-mq: unify hctx delay_work and run_workJens Axboe2-15/+23
The only difference between ->run_work and ->delay_work, is that the latter is used to defer running a queue. This is done by marking the queue stopped, and scheduling ->delay_work to run sometime in the future. While the queue is stopped, direct runs or runs through ->run_work will not run the queue. If we combine the handlers, then we need to handle two things: 1) If a delayed/stopped run is scheduled, then we should not run the queue before that has been completed. 2) If a queue is delayed/stopped, the handler needs to restart the queue. Normally a run of a queue with the stopped bit set would be a no-op. Case 1 is handled by modifying a currently pending queue run to the deadline set by the caller of blk_mq_delay_queue(). Subsequent attempts to queue a queue run will find the work item already pending, and direct runs will see a stopped queue as before. Case 2 is handled by adding a new bit, BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN, that tells the work handler that it should clear a stopped queue and run the handler.

2017-04-25Revert "block: use DAX for partition table reads"Dan Williams1-15/+2
commit d1a5f2b4d8a1 ("block: use DAX for partition table reads") was part of a stalled effort to allow dax mappings of block devices. Since then the device-dax mechanism has filled the role of dax-mapping static device ranges. Now that we are moving ->direct_access() from a block_device operation to a dax_inode operation we would need block devices to map and carry their own dax_inode reference. Unless / until we decide to revive dax mapping of raw block devices through the dax_inode scheme, there is no need to carry read_dax_sector(). Its removal in turn allows for the removal of bdev_direct_access() and should have been included in commit 223757016837 ("block_dev: remove DAX leftovers").
