2014-02-10null_blk: use blk_complete_request and blk_mq_complete_requestChristoph Hellwig1-65/+32
Use the block layer helpers for CPU-local completions instead of reimplementing them locally. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2014-02-07block/null_blk: Fix completion processing from LIFO to FIFOShlomo Pongratz1-0/+2
The completion queue is implemented using lockless list. The llist_add is adds the events to the list head which is a push operation. The processing of the completion elements is done by disconnecting all the pushed elements and iterating over the disconnected list. The problem is that the processing is done in reverse order w.r.t order of the insertion i.e. LIFO processing. By reversing the disconnected list which is done in linear time the desired FIFO processing is achieved. Signed-off-by: Shlomo Pongratz <shlomop@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2014-01-12block: null_blk: fix queue leak inside removing deviceMing Lei1-8/+2
When queue_mode is NULL_Q_MQ and null_blk is being removed, blk_cleanup_queue() isn't called to cleanup queue, so the queue allocated won't be freed. This patch calls blk_cleanup_queue() for MQ to drain all pending requests first and release the reference counter of queue kobject, then blk_mq_free_queue() will be called in queue kobject's release handler when queue kobject's reference counter drops to zero.

2013-12-21null_blk: support submit_queues on use_per_node_hctxMatias Bjørling1-4/+35
In the case of both the submit_queues param and use_per_node_hctx param are used. We limit the number af submit_queues to the number of online nodes. If the submit_queues is a multiple of nr_online_nodes, its trivial. Simply map them to the nodes. For example: 8 submit queues are mapped as node0[0,1], node1[2,3], ... If uneven, we are left with an uneven number of submit_queues that must be mapped. These are mapped toward the first node and onward. E.g. 5 submit queues mapped onto 4 nodes are mapped as node0[0,1], node1[2], ... Signed-off-by: Matias Bjorling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2013-12-21null_blk: set use_per_node_hctx param to falseMatias Bjørling1-2/+2
The defaults for the module is to instantiate itself with blk-mq and a submit queue for each CPU node in the system. To save resources, initialize instead with a single submit queue. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjorling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

2013-12-19null_blk: refactor init and init errors code pathsMatias Bjorling1-25/+38
Simplify the initialization logic of the three block-layers. - The queue initialization is split into two parts. This allows reuse of code when initializing the sq-, bio- and mq-based layers. - Set submit_queues default value to 0 and always set it at init time. - Simplify the init error code paths.

2013-12-19null_blk: mem garbage on NUMA systems during initMatias Bjorling1-4/+4
For NUMA systems, initializing the blk-mq layer and using per node hctx. We initialize submit queues to 1, while blk-mq nr_hw_queues is initialized to the number of NUMA nodes. This makes the null_init_hctx function overwrite memory outside of what it allocated. In my case it lead to writing garbage into struct request_queue's mq_map.
