2012-06-26blkcg: implement per-blkg request allocationTejun Heo
Currently, request_queue has one request_list to allocate requests from regardless of blkcg of the IO being issued. When the unified request pool is used up, cfq proportional IO limits become meaningless - whoever grabs the next request being freed wins the race regardless of the configured weights. This can be easily demonstrated by creating a blkio cgroup w/ very low weight, put a program which can issue a lot of random direct IOs there and running a sequential IO from a different cgroup. As soon as the request pool is used up, the sequential IO bandwidth crashes. This patch implements per-blkg request_list. Each blkg has its own request_list and any IO allocates its request from the matching blkg making blkcgs completely isolated in terms of request allocation. * Root blkcg uses the request_list embedded in each request_queue, which was renamed to @q->root_rl from @q->rq. While making blkcg rl handling a bit harier, this enables avoiding most overhead for root blkcg. * Queue fullness is properly per request_list but bdi isn't blkcg aware yet, so congestion state currently just follows the root blkcg. As writeback isn't aware of blkcg yet, this works okay for async congestion but readahead may get the wrong signals. It's better than blkcg completely collapsing with shared request_list but needs to be improved with future changes. * After this change, each block cgroup gets a full request pool making resource consumption of each cgroup higher. This makes allowing non-root users to create cgroups less desirable; however, note that allowing non-root users to directly manage cgroups is already severely broken regardless of this patch - each block cgroup consumes kernel memory and skews IO weight (IO weights are not hierarchical). v2: queue-sysfs.txt updated and patch description udpated as suggested by Vivek. v3: blk_get_rl() wasn't checking error return from blkg_lookup_create() and may cause oops on lookup failure. Fix it by falling back to root_rl on blkg lookup failures. This problem was spotted by Rakesh Iyer <rni@google.com>. v4: Updated to accomodate 458f27a982 "block: Avoid missed wakeup in request waitqueue". blk_drain_queue() now wakes up waiters on all blkg->rl on the target queue.

2012-04-20blkcg: use radix tree to index blkgs from blkcgTejun Heo
blkg lookup is currently performed by traversing linked list anchored at blkcg->blkg_list. This is very unscalable and with blk-throttle enabled and enough request queues on the system, this can get very ugly quickly (blk-throttle performs look up on every bio submission). This patch makes blkcg use radix tree to index blkgs combined with simple last-looked-up hint. This is mostly identical to how icqs are indexed from ioc. Note that because __blkg_lookup() may be invoked without holding queue lock, hint is only updated from __blkg_lookup_create(). Due to cfq's cfqq caching, this makes hint updates overly lazy. This will be improved with scheduled blkcg aware request allocation. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

2012-04-20blkcg: embed struct blkg_policy_data in policy specific dataTejun Heo
Currently blkg_policy_data carries policy specific data as char flex array instead of being embedded in policy specific data. This was forced by oddities around blkg allocation which are all gone now. This patch makes blkg_policy_data embedded in policy specific data - throtl_grp and cfq_group so that it's more conventional and consistent with how io_cq is handled. * blkcg_policy->pdata_size is renamed to ->pd_size. * Functions which used to take void *pdata now takes struct blkg_policy_data *pd. * blkg_to_pdata/pdata_to_blkg() updated to blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg(). * Dummy struct blkg_policy_data definition added. Dummy pdata_to_blkg() definition was unused and inconsistent with the non-dummy version - correct dummy pd_to_blkg() added. * throtl and cfq updated accordingly. * As dummy blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg() are provided, blkg_to_cfqg/cfqg_to_blkg() don't need to be ifdef'd. Moved outside ifdef block. This patch doesn't introduce any functional change. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

2012-04-20blkcg: implement per-queue policy activationTejun Heo
All blkcg policies were assumed to be enabled on all request_queues. Due to various implementation obstacles, during the recent blkcg core updates, this was temporarily implemented as shooting down all !root blkgs on elevator switch and policy [de]registration combined with half-broken in-place root blkg updates. In addition to being buggy and racy, this meant losing all blkcg configurations across those events. Now that blkcg is cleaned up enough, this patch replaces the temporary implementation with proper per-queue policy activation. Each blkcg policy should call the new blkcg_[de]activate_policy() to enable and disable the policy on a specific queue. blkcg_activate_policy() allocates and installs policy data for the policy for all existing blkgs. blkcg_deactivate_policy() does the reverse. If a policy is not enabled for a given queue, blkg printing / config functions skip the respective blkg for the queue. blkcg_activate_policy() also takes care of root blkg creation, and cfq_init_queue() and blk_throtl_init() are updated accordingly. This replaces blkcg_bypass_{start|end}() and update_root_blkg_pd() unnecessary. Dropped. v2: cfq_init_queue() was returning uninitialized @ret on root_group alloc failure if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED. Fixed.

2012-04-01blkcg: cfq doesn't need per-cpu dispatch statsTejun Heo
blkio_group_stats_cpu is used to count dispatch stats using per-cpu counters.

2012-04-01blkcg: move statistics update code to policiesTejun Heo
As with conf/stats file handling code, there's no reason for stat update code to live in blkcg core with policies calling into update them. The current organization is both inflexible and complex. This patch moves stat update code to specific policies. All blkiocg_update_*_stats() functions which deal with BLKIO_POLICY_PROP stats are collapsed into their cfq_blkiocg_update_*_stats() counterparts. blkiocg_update_dispatch_stats() is used by both policies and duplicated as throtl_update_dispatch_stats() and cfq_blkiocg_update_dispatch_stats(). This will be cleaned up later. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2012-04-01blkcg: move conf/stat file handling code to policiesTejun Heo
blkcg conf/stat handling is convoluted in that details which belong to specific policy implementations are all out in blkcg core and then policies hook into core layer to access and manipulate confs and stats. This sadly achieves both inflexibility (confs/stats can't be modified without messing with blkcg core) and complexity (all the call-ins and call-backs). The previous patches restructured conf and stat handling code such that they can be separated out. This patch relocates the file handling part. All conf/stat file handling code which belongs to BLKIO_POLICY_PROP is moved to cfq-iosched.c and all BKLIO_POLICY_THROTL code to blk-throtl.c. The move is verbatim except for blkio_update_group_{weight|bps|iops}() callbacks which relays conf changes to policies. The configuration settings are handled in policies themselves so the relaying isn't necessary. Conf setting functions are modified to directly call per-policy update functions and the relaying mechanism is dropped. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2012-04-01blkcg: restructure blkio_group configruation settingTejun Heo
As part of userland interface restructuring, this patch updates per-blkio_group configuration setting. Instead of funneling everything through a master function which has hard-coded cases for each config file it may handle, the common part is factored into blkg_conf_prep() and blkg_conf_finish() and different configuration setters are implemented using the helpers.

2012-04-01blkcg: restructure configuration printingTejun Heo
Similarly to the previous stat restructuring, this patch restructures conf printing code such that, * Conf printing uses the same helpers as stat. * Printing function doesn't require hardcoded switching on the config being printed. Note that this isn't complete yet for throttle confs. The next patch will convert setting for these confs and will complete the transition. * Printing uses read_seq_string callback (other methods will be phased out). Note that blkio_group_conf.iops[2] is changed to u64 so that they can be manipulated with the same functions. This is transitional and will go away later. After this patch, per-device configurations - weight, bps and iops - use __blkg_prfill_u64() for printing which uses white space as delimiter instead of tab. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2012-04-01blkcg: restructure statistics printingTejun Heo
blkcg stats handling is a mess. None of the stats has much to do with blkcg core but they are all implemented in blkcg core. Code sharing is achieved by mixing common code with hard-coded cases for each stat counter. This patch restructures statistics printing such that * Common logic exists as helper functions and specific print functions use the helpers to implement specific cases. * Printing functions serving multiple counters don't require hardcoded switching on specific counters. * Printing uses read_seq_string callback (other methods will be phased out).

2012-04-01blkcg: introduce blkg_stat and blkg_rwstatTejun Heo
blkcg uses u64_stats_sync to avoid reading wrong u64 statistic values on 32bit archs and some stat counters have subtypes to distinguish read/writes and sync/async IOs. The stat code paths are confusing and involve a lot of going back and forth between blkcg core and specific policy implementations, and synchronization and subtype handling are open coded in blkcg core. This patch introduces struct blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat which, with accompanying operations, encapsulate stat updating and accessing with proper synchronization. blkg_stat is simple u64 counter with 64bit read-access protection. blkg_rwstat is the one with rw and [a]sync subcounters and takes @rw flags to distinguish IO subtypes (%REQ_WRITE and %REQ_SYNC) and replaces stat_sub_type indexed arrays. All counters in blkio_group_stats and blkio_group_stats_cpu are replaced with either blkg_stat or blkg_rwstat along with all users. This does add one u64_stats_sync per counter and increase stats_sync operations but they're empty/noops on 64bit archs and blkcg doesn't have too many counters, especially with DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP off. While the currently resulting code isn't necessarily simpler at the moment, this will enable further clean up of blkcg stats code. - BLKIO_STAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL} renamed to BLKG_RWSTAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL}. - blkg_stat_add() replaces blkio_add_stat() and blkio_check_and_dec_stat(). Note that BUG_ON() on underflow in the latter function no longer exists. It's *way* better to have underflowed stat counters than oopsing. - blkio_group_stats->dequeue is now a proper u64 stat counter instead of ulong. - reset_stats() updated to clear each stat counters individually and BLKG_STATS_DEBUG_CLEAR_{START|SIZE} are removed. - Some functions reconstruct rw flags from direction and sync booleans. This will be removed by future patches. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2012-03-20blkcg: simplify stat resetTejun Heo
blkiocg_reset_stats() implements stat reset for blkio.reset_stats cgroupfs file. This feature is very unconventional and something which shouldn't have been merged. It's only useful when there's only one user or tool looking at the stats. As soon as multiple users and/or tools are involved, it becomes useless as resetting disrupts other usages. There are very good reasons why all other stats expect readers to read values at the start and end of a period and subtract to determine delta over the period. The implementation is rather complex - some fields shouldn't be cleared and it saves some fields, resets whole and restores for some reason. Reset of percpu stats is also racy. The comment points to 64bit store atomicity for the reason but even without that stores for zero can simply race with other CPUs doing RMW and get clobbered. Simplify reset by * Clear selectively instead of resetting and restoring. * Grouping debug stat fields to be reset and using memset() over them. * Not caring about stats_lock. * Using memset() to reset percpu stats.

2012-03-20blkcg: alloc per cpu stats from worker thread in a delayed mannerVivek Goyal
Current per cpu stat allocation assumes GFP_KERNEL allocation flag. But in IO path there are times when we want GFP_NOIO semantics. As there is no way to pass the allocation flags to alloc_percpu(), this patch delays the allocation of stats using a worker thread. v2-> tejun suggested following changes. Changed the patch accordingly. - move alloc_node location in structure - reduce the size of names of some of the fields - Reduce the scope of locking of alloc_list_lock - Simplified stat_alloc_fn() by allocating stats for all policies in one go and then assigning these to a group. v3 -> Andrew suggested to put some comments in the code. Also raised concerns about trying to allocate infinitely in case of allocation failure. I have changed the logic to sleep for 10ms before retrying. That should take care of non-preemptible UP kernels. v4 -> Tejun had more suggestions. - drop list_for_each_entry_all() - instead of msleep() use queue_delayed_work() - Some cleanups realted to more compact coding. v5-> tejun suggested more cleanups leading to more compact code. tj: - Relocated pcpu_stats into blkio_stat_alloc_fn(). - Minor comment update. - This also fixes suspicious RCU usage warning caused by invoking cgroup_path() from blkg_alloc() without holding RCU read lock. Now that blkg_alloc() doesn't require sleepable context, RCU read lock from blkg_lookup_create() is maintained throughout blkg_alloc().

This makes both cgroup policies honor task association for the bio instead of always assuming %current. As nobody is using bio_set_task() yet, this doesn't introduce any behavior change.

2012-03-06blkcg: drop unnecessary RCU lockingTejun Heo
Now that blkg additions / removals are always done under both q and blkcg locks, the only places RCU locking is necessary are blkg_lookup[_create]() for lookup w/o blkcg lock. This patch drops unncessary RCU locking replacing it with plain blkcg locking as necessary. * blkiocg_pre_destroy() already perform proper locking and don't need RCU. Dropped. * blkio_read_blkg_stats() now uses blkcg->lock instead of RCU read lock. This isn't a hot path. * Now unnecessary synchronize_rcu() from queue exit paths removed. This makes q->nr_blkgs unnecessary. Dropped. * RCU annotation on blkg->q removed. -v2: Vivek pointed out that blkg_lookup_create() still needs to be called under rcu_read_lock(). Updated. -v3: After the update, stats_lock locking in blkio_read_blkg_stats() shouldn't be using _irq variant as it otherwise ends up enabling irq while blkcg->lock is locked. Fixed.

2012-03-06blkcg: use double locking instead of RCU for blkg synchronizationTejun Heo
blkgs are chained from both blkcgs and request_queues and thus subjected to two locks - blkcg->lock and q->queue_lock. As both blkcg and q can go away anytime, locking during removal is tricky. It's currently solved by wrapping removal inside RCU, which makes the synchronization complex. There are three locks to worry about - the outer RCU, q lock and blkcg lock, and it leads to nasty subtle complications like conditional synchronize_rcu() on queue exit paths. For all other paths, blkcg lock is naturally nested inside q lock and the only exception is blkcg removal path, which is a very cold path and can be implemented as clumsy but conceptually-simple reverse double lock dancing. This patch updates blkg removal path such that blkgs are removed while holding both q and blkcg locks, which is trivial for request queue exit path - blkg_destroy_all(). The blkcg removal path, blkiocg_pre_destroy(), implements reverse double lock dancing essentially identical to ioc_release_fn(). This simplifies blkg locking - no half-dead blkgs to worry about. Now unnecessary RCU annotations will be removed by the next patch. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2012-03-06blkcg: unify blkg's for blkcg policiesTejun Heo
Currently, blkg is per cgroup-queue-policy combination. This is unnatural and leads to various convolutions in partially used duplicate fields in blkg, config / stat access, and general management of blkgs. This patch make blkg's per cgroup-queue and let them serve all policies. blkgs are now created and destroyed by blkcg core proper. This will allow further consolidation of common management logic into blkcg core and API with better defined semantics and layering. As a transitional step to untangle blkg management, elvswitch and policy [de]registration, all blkgs except the root blkg are being shot down during elvswitch and bypass. This patch adds blkg_root_update() to update root blkg in place on policy change. This is hacky and racy but should be good enough as interim step until we get locking simplified and switch over to proper in-place update for all blkgs. -v2: Root blkgs need to be updated on elvswitch too and blkg_alloc() comment wasn't updated according to the function change. Fixed. Both pointed out by Vivek. -v3: v2 updated blkg_destroy_all() to invoke update_root_blkg_pd() for all policies. This freed root pd during elvswitch before the last queue finished exiting and led to oops. Directly invoke update_root_blkg_pd() only on BLKIO_POLICY_PROP from cfq_exit_queue(). This also is closer to what will be done with proper in-place blkg update. Reported by Vivek.

2012-03-06blkcg: let blkcg core manage per-queue blkg list and counterTejun Heo
With the previous patch to move blkg list heads and counters to request_queue and blkg, logic to manage them in both policies are almost identical and can be moved to blkcg core. This patch moves blkg link logic into blkg_lookup_create(), implements common blkg unlink code in blkg_destroy(), and updates blkg_destory_all() so that it's policy specific and can skip root group. The updated blkg_destroy_all() is now used to both clear queue for bypassing and elv switching, and release all blkgs on q exit. This patch introduces a race window where policy [de]registration may race against queue blkg clearing. This can only be a problem on cfq unload and shouldn't be a real problem in practice (and we have many other places where this race already exists). Future patches will remove these unlikely races.

2012-03-06blkcg: move per-queue blkg list heads and counters to queue and blkgTejun Heo
Currently, specific policy implementations are responsible for maintaining list and number of blkgs. This duplicates code unnecessarily, and hinders factoring common code and providing blkcg API with better defined semantics. After this patch, request_queue hosts list heads and counters and blkg has list nodes for both policies. This patch only relocates the necessary fields and the next patch will actually move management code into blkcg core. Note that request_queue->blkg_list[] and ->nr_blkgs[] are hardcoded to have 2 elements. This is to avoid include dependency and will be removed by the next patch. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change. -v2: Now unnecessary conditional on CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP_MODULE removed as pointed out by Vivek.

2012-03-06blkcg: don't use blkg->plid in stat related functionsTejun Heo
blkg is scheduled to be unified for all policies and thus there won't be one-to-one mapping from blkg to policy. Update stat related functions to take explicit @pol or @plid arguments and not use blkg->plid. This is painful for now but most of specific stat interface functions will be replaced with a handful of generic helpers.

2012-03-06blkcg: move refcnt to blkcg coreTejun Heo
Currently, blkcg policy implementations manage blkg refcnt duplicating mostly identical code in both policies. This patch moves refcnt to blkg and let blkcg core handle refcnt and freeing of blkgs. * cfq blkgs now also get freed via RCU. * cfq blkgs lose RB_EMPTY_ROOT() sanity check on blkg free. If necessary, we can add blkio_exit_group_fn() to resurrect this. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2012-03-06blkcg: let blkcg core handle policy private data allocationTejun Heo
Currently, blkg's are embedded in private data blkcg policy private data structure and thus allocated and freed by policies. This leads to duplicate codes in policies, hinders implementing common part in blkcg core with strong semantics, and forces duplicate blkg's for the same cgroup-q association. This patch introduces struct blkg_policy_data which is a separate data structure chained from blkg. Policies specifies the amount of private data it needs in its blkio_policy_type->pdata_size and blkcg core takes care of allocating them along with blkg which can be accessed using blkg_to_pdata(). blkg can be determined from pdata using pdata_to_blkg(). blkio_alloc_group_fn() method is accordingly updated to blkio_init_group_fn(). For consistency, tg_of_blkg() and cfqg_of_blkg() are replaced with blkg_to_tg() and blkg_to_cfqg() respectively, and functions to map in the reverse direction are added. Except that policy specific data now lives in a separate data structure from blkg, this patch doesn't introduce any functional difference. This will be used to unify blkg's for different policies.
