block: support to account io_ticks precisely

block: support to account io_ticks precisely

[ Upstream commit 99dc422335d8b2bd4d105797241d3e715bae90e9 ]

Currently, io_ticks is accounted based on sampling, specifically
update_io_ticks() will always account io_ticks by 1 jiffies from
bdev_start_io_acct()/blk_account_io_start(), and the result can be
inaccurate, for example(HZ is 250):

Test script:
fio -filename=/dev/sda -bs=4k -rw=write -direct=1 -name=test -thinktime=4ms

Test result: util is about 90%, while the disk is really idle.

This behaviour is introduced by commit 5b18b5a73760 ("block: delete
part_round_stats and switch to less precise counting"), however, there
was a key point that is missed that this patch also improve performance
a lot:

Before the commit:
part_round_stats:
if (part->stamp != now)
stats |= 1;

part_in_flight()
-> there can be lots of task here in 1 jiffies.
part_round_stats_single()
__part_stat_add()
part->stamp = now;

After the commit:
update_io_ticks:
stamp = part->bd_stamp;
if (time_after(now, stamp))
if (try_cmpxchg())
__part_stat_add()
-> only one task can reach here in 1 jiffies.

Hence in order to account io_ticks precisely, we only need to know if
there are IO inflight at most once in one jiffies. Noted that for
rq-based device, iterating tags should not be used here because
'tags->lock' is grabbed in blk_mq_find_and_get_req(), hence
part_stat_lock_inc/dec() and part_in_flight() is used to trace inflight.
The additional overhead is quite little:

- per cpu add/dec for each IO for rq-based device;
- per cpu sum for each jiffies;

And it's verified by null-blk that there are no performance degration
under heavy IO pressure.

blk-mq: release crypto keyslot before reporting I/O complete

Once all I/O using a blk_crypto_key has completed, filesystems can call
blk_crypto_evict_key(). However, the block layer currently doesn't call
blk_crypto_put_keyslot() until the request is being freed, which happens
after upper layers have been told (via bio_endio()) the I/O has
completed. This causes a race condition where blk_crypto_evict_key()
can see 'slot_refs != 0' without there being an actual bug.

This makes __blk_crypto_evict_key() hit the
'WARN_ON_ONCE(atomic_read(&slot->slot_refs) != 0)' and return without
doing anything, eventually causing a use-after-free in
blk_crypto_reprogram_all_keys(). (This is a very rare bug and has only
been seen when per-file keys are being used with fscrypt.)

There are two options to fix this: either release the keyslot before
bio_endio() is called on the request's last bio, or make
__blk_crypto_evict_key() ignore slot_refs. Let's go with the first
solution, since it preserves the ability to report bugs (via
WARN_ON_ONCE) where a key is evicted while still in-use.

blk-mq: enforce op-specific segment limits in blk_insert_cloned_request

The block layer might merge together discard requests up until the
max_discard_segments limit is hit, but blk_insert_cloned_request checks
the segment count against max_segments regardless of the req op. This
can result in errors like the following when discards are issued through
a DM device and max_discard_segments exceeds max_segments for the queue
of the chosen underlying device.

blk_insert_cloned_request: over max segments limit. (256 > 129)

Fix this by looking at the req_op and enforcing the appropriate segment
limit - max_discard_segments for REQ_OP_DISCARDs and max_segments for
everything else.

block: sync mixed merged request's failfast with 1st bio's

We support mixed merge for requests/bios with different fastfail
settings. When request fails, each time we only handle the portion
with same failfast setting, then bios with failfast can be failed
immediately, and bios without failfast can be retried.

The idea is pretty good, but the current implementation has several
defects:

1) initially RA bio doesn't set failfast, however bio merge code
doesn't consider this point, and just check its failfast setting for
deciding if mixed merge is required. Fix this issue by adding helper
of bio_failfast().

2) when merging bio to request front, if this request is mixed
merged, we have to sync request's faifast setting with 1st bio's
failfast. Fix it by calling blk_update_mixed_merge().

3) when merging bio to request back, if this request is mixed
merged, we have to mark the bio as failfast, because blk_update_request
simply updates request failfast with 1st bio's failfast. Fix
it by calling blk_update_mixed_merge().

Fixes one normal EXT4 READ IO failure issue, because it is observed
that the normal READ IO is merged with RA IO, and the mixed merged
request has different failfast setting with 1st bio's, so finally
the normal READ IO doesn't get retried.

block: don't allow splitting of a REQ_NOWAIT bio

If we split a bio marked with REQ_NOWAIT, then we can trigger spurious
EAGAIN if constituent parts of that split bio end up failing request
allocations. Parts will complete just fine, but just a single failure
in one of the chained bios will yield an EAGAIN final result for the
parent bio.

Return EAGAIN early if we end up needing to split such a bio, which
allows for saner recovery handling.
