block: an exiting task should be allowed to create io_context

While fixing io_context creation / task exit race condition,
6e736be7f2 "block: make ioc get/put interface more conventional and
fix race on alloction" also prevented an exiting (%PF_EXITING) task
from creating its own io_context. This is incorrect as exit path may
issue IOs, e.g. from exit_files(), and if those IOs are the first ones
issued by the task, io_context needs to be created to process the IOs.

Combined with the existing problem of io_context / io_cq creation
failure having the possibility of stalling IO, this problem results in
deterministic full IO lockup with certain workloads.

Fix it by allowing io_context creation regardless of %PF_EXITING for
%current.

block, cfq: move icq creation and rq->elv.icq association to block core

Now block layer knows everything necessary to create and associate
icq's with requests. Move ioc_create_icq() to blk-ioc.c and update
get_request() such that, if elevator_type->icq_size is set, requests
are automatically associated with their matching icq's before
elv_set_request(). io_context reference is also managed by block core
on request alloc/free.

* Only ioprio/cgroup changed handling remains from cfq_get_cic().
Collapsed into cfq_set_request().

* This removes queue kicking on icq allocation failure (for now). As
icq allocation failure is rare and the only effect of queue kicking
achieved was possibily accelerating queue processing, this change
shouldn't be noticeable.

There is a larger underlying problem. Unlike request allocation,
icq allocation is not guaranteed to succeed eventually after
retries. The number of icq is unbound and thus mempool can't be the
solution either. This effectively adds allocation dependency on
memory free path and thus possibility of deadlock.

This usually wouldn't happen because icq allocation is not a hot
path and, even when the condition triggers, it's highly unlikely
that none of the writeback workers already has icq.

However, this is still possible especially if elevator is being
switched under high memory pressure, so we better get it fixed.
Probably the only solution is just bypassing elevator and appending
to dispatch queue on any elevator allocation failure.

* Comment added to explain how icq's are managed and synchronized.

This completes cleanup of io_context interface.

block, cfq: move io_cq exit/release to blk-ioc.c

With kmem_cache managed by blk-ioc, io_cq exit/release can be moved to
blk-ioc too. The odd ->io_cq->exit/release() callbacks are replaced
with elevator_ops->elevator_exit_icq_fn() with unlinking from both ioc
and q, and freeing automatically handled by blk-ioc. The elevator
operation only need to perform exit operation specific to the elevator
- in cfq's case, exiting the cfqq's.

Also, clearing of io_cq's on q detach is moved to block core and
automatically performed on elevator switch and q release.

Because the q io_cq points to might be freed before RCU callback for
the io_cq runs, blk-ioc code should remember to which cache the io_cq
needs to be freed when the io_cq is released. New field
io_cq->__rcu_icq_cache is added for this purpose. As both the new
field and rcu_head are used only after io_cq is released and the
q/ioc_node fields aren't, they are put into unions.

block, cfq: reorganize cfq_io_context into generic and cfq specific parts

Currently io_context and cfq logics are mixed without clear boundary.
Most of io_context is independent from cfq but cfq_io_context handling
logic is dispersed between generic ioc code and cfq.

cfq_io_context represents association between an io_context and a
request_queue, which is a concept useful outside of cfq, but it also
contains fields which are useful only to cfq.

This patch takes out generic part and put it into io_cq (io
context-queue) and the rest into cfq_io_cq (cic moniker remains the
same) which contains io_cq. The following changes are made together.

* cfq_ttime and cfq_io_cq now live in cfq-iosched.c.

* All related fields, functions and constants are renamed accordingly.

* ioc->ioc_data is now "struct io_cq *" instead of "void *" and
renamed to icq_hint.

This prepares for io_context API cleanup. Documentation is currently
sparse. It will be added later.

Changes in this patch are mechanical and don't cause functional
change.

block, cfq: replace current_io_context() with create_io_context()

When called under queue_lock, current_io_context() triggers lockdep
warning if it hits allocation path. This is because io_context
installation is protected by task_lock which is not IRQ safe, so it
triggers irq-unsafe-lock -> irq -> irq-safe-lock -> irq-unsafe-lock
deadlock warning.

Given the restriction, accessor + creator rolled into one doesn't work
too well. Drop current_io_context() and let the users access
task->io_context directly inside queue_lock combined with explicit
creation using create_io_context().

Future ioc updates will further consolidate ioc access and the create
interface will be unexported.

While at it, relocate ioc internal interface declarations in blk.h and
add section comments before and after.

block, cfq: unlink cfq_io_context's immediately

cic is association between io_context and request_queue. A cic is
linked from both ioc and q and should be destroyed when either one
goes away. As ioc and q both have their own locks, locking becomes a
bit complex - both orders work for removal from one but not from the
other.

Currently, cfq tries to circumvent this locking order issue with RCU.
ioc->lock nests inside queue_lock but the radix tree and cic's are
also protected by RCU allowing either side to walk their lists without
grabbing lock.

This rather unconventional use of RCU quickly devolves into extremely
fragile convolution. e.g. The following is from cfqd going away too
soon after ioc and q exits raced.

The only real hot path here is cic lookup during request
initialization and avoiding extra locking requires very confined use
of RCU. This patch makes cic removal from both ioc and request_queue
perform double-locking and unlink immediately.

* From q side, the change is almost trivial as ioc->lock nests inside
queue_lock. It just needs to grab each ioc->lock as it walks
cic_list and unlink it.

* From ioc side, it's a bit more difficult because of inversed lock
order. ioc needs its lock to walk its cic_list but can't grab the
matching queue_lock and needs to perform unlock-relock dancing.

Unlinking is now wholly done from put_io_context() and fast path is
optimized by using the queue_lock the caller already holds, which is
by far the most common case. If the ioc accessed multiple devices,
it tries with trylock. In unlikely cases of fast path failure, it
falls back to full double-locking dance from workqueue.

Double-locking isn't the prettiest thing in the world but it's *far*
simpler and more understandable than RCU trick without adding any
meaningful overhead.

This still leaves a lot of now unnecessary RCU logics. Future patches
will trim them.

ioprio/cgroup change was handled by marking the changed state in ioc
and, on the following access to the ioc, performing RCU-protected
iteration through all cic's grabbing the matching queue_lock.

This patch moves the changed state to each cic. When ioprio or cgroup
changes, the respective bit is set on all cic's of the ioc and when
each of those cic (not ioc) is accessed, change is applied for that
specific ioc-queue pair.

This also fixes the following two race conditions between setting and
clearing of changed states.

* Missing barrier between assign/load of ioprio and ioprio_changed
allowed applying old ioprio.

* Change requests could happen between application of change and

block: make ioc get/put interface more conventional and fix race on alloction

Ignoring copy_io() during fork, io_context can be allocated from two
places - current_io_context() and set_task_ioprio(). The former is
always called from local task while the latter can be called from
different task. The synchornization between them are peculiar and
dubious.

* current_io_context() doesn't grab task_lock() and assumes that if it
saw %NULL ->io_context, it would stay that way until allocation and
assignment is complete. It has smp_wmb() between alloc/init and
assignment.

* set_task_ioprio() grabs task_lock() for assignment and does
smp_read_barrier_depends() between "ioc = task->io_context" and "if
(ioc)". Unfortunately, this doesn't achieve anything - the latter
is not a dependent load of the former. ie, if ioc itself were being
dereferenced "ioc->xxx", it would mean something (not sure what tho)
but as the code currently stands, the dependent read barrier is
noop.

As only one of the the two test-assignment sequences is task_lock()
protected, the task_lock() can't do much about race between the two.
Nothing prevents current_io_context() and set_task_ioprio() allocating
its own ioc for the same task and overwriting the other's.

Also, set_task_ioprio() can race with exiting task and create a new
ioc after exit_io_context() is finished.

ioc get/put doesn't have any reason to be complex. The only hot path
is accessing the existing ioc of %current, which is simple to achieve
given that ->io_context is never destroyed as long as the task is
alive. All other paths can happily go through task_lock() like all
other task sub structures without impacting anything.

This patch updates ioc get/put so that it becomes more conventional.

* alloc_io_context() is replaced with get_task_io_context(). This is
the only interface which can acquire access to ioc of another task.
On return, the caller has an explicit reference to the object which
should be put using put_io_context() afterwards.

* The functionality of current_io_context() remains the same but when
creating a new ioc, it shares the code path with
get_task_io_context() and always goes through task_lock().

* get_io_context() now means incrementing ref on an ioc which the
caller already has access to (be that an explicit refcnt or implicit
%current one).

* PF_EXITING inhibits creation of new io_context and once
exit_io_context() is finished, it's guaranteed that both ioc
acquisition functions return %NULL.

* All users are updated. Most are trivial but
smp_read_barrier_depends() removal from cfq_get_io_context() needs a
bit of explanation. I suppose the original intention was to ensure
ioc->ioprio is visible when set_task_ioprio() allocates new
io_context and installs it; however, this wouldn't have worked
because set_task_ioprio() doesn't have wmb between init and install.
There are other problems with this which will be fixed in another
patch.

* While at it, use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of -1 for wildcard node
specification.

if block and drop 0'ing.

Merge branch 'master' into x86/memblock

Conflicts & resolutions:

* arch/x86/xen/setup.c

dc91c728fd "xen: allow extra memory to be in multiple regions"
24aa07882b "memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free..."

conflicted on xen_add_extra_mem() updates. The resolution is
trivial as the latter just want to replace
memblock_x86_reserve_range() with memblock_reserve().

* drivers/pci/intel-iommu.c

166e9278a3f "x86/ia64: intel-iommu: move to drivers/iommu/"
5dfe8660a3d "bootmem: Replace work_with_active_regions() with..."

conflicted as the former moved the file under drivers/iommu/.
Resolved by applying the chnages from the latter on the moved
file.

* mm/Kconfig

6661672053a "memblock: add NO_BOOTMEM config symbol"
c378ddd53f9 "memblock, x86: Make ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK a config option"

conflicted trivially. Both added config options. Just
letting both add their own options resolves the conflict.

* mm/memblock.c

d1f0ece6cdc "mm/memblock.c: small function definition fixes"
ed7b56a799c "memblock: Remove memblock_memory_can_coalesce()"

confliected. The former updates function removed by the
latter. Resolution is trivial.
