Cfq has a bug in computation of next_rq, that affects transition
between multiple sequential request streams in a single queue
(e.g.: two sequential buffered writers of the same priority),
causing the alternation between the two streams for a transient period.

The fix makes sure that the next_rq is computed from the last

When there are many blocks on the fly (ua), and the AL gets into "starving"
mode (random IO, scattered all over the device), and the connections gets
interrupted, the receiver thread deadlocks in the drbd_disconnect() code path.
Affected are only nodes in Primary role.
The bug triggers most likely on system that mirror over "long distances"

sendfile(2) was reworked with the splice infrastructure, but it still
checks f_op.sendpage() instead of f_op.splice_write() wrongly. Although
if f_op.sendpage() exists, f_op.splice_write() always exists at the same
time currently, the assumption will be broken in future silently. This
patch also brings a side effect: sendfile(2) can work with any output
file. Some security checks related to f_op are added too.

The current PS3 VRAM driver uses msleep() to wait for completion of RSX
DMA transfers between system memory and VRAM. Depending on the system
timing, the processing delay and overhead of this msleep() call can
significantly impact VRAM driver IO.
To avoid the condition, add a short duration (200 usec max) udelay()
polling loop before entering the msleep() polling loop.

Currently no-idle queues in cfq are not serviced fairly:
even if they can only dispatch a small number of requests at a time,
they have to compete with idling queues to be serviced, experiencing
large latencies.
We should notice, instead, that no-idle queues are the ones that would
benefit most from having low latency, in fact they are any of:
* processes with large think times (e.g. interactive ones like file
managers)
* seeky (e.g. programs faulting in their code at startup)
* or marked as no-idle from upper levels, to improve latencies of those
requests.
This patch improves the fairness and latency for those queues, by:
* separating sync idle, sync no-idle and async queues in separate
service_trees, for each priority
* service all no-idle queues together
* and idling when the last no-idle queue has been serviced, to
anticipate for more no-idle work
* the timeslices allotted for idle and no-idle service_trees are
computed proportionally to the number of processes in each set.
Servicing all no-idle queues together should have a performance boost
for NCQ-capable drives, without compromising fairness.

cfq can disable idling for queues in various circumstances.
When workloads of different priorities are competing, if the higher
priority queue has idling disabled, lower priority queues may steal
its disk share. For example, in a scenario with an RT process
performing seeky reads vs a BE process performing sequential reads,
on an NCQ enabled hardware, with low_latency unset,
the RT process will dispatch only the few pending requests every full
slice of service for the BE process.
The patch solves this issue by always performing idle on the last
queue at a given priority class > idle. If the same process, or one
that can pre-empt it (so at the same priority or higher), submits a
new request within the idle window, the lower priority queue won't
dispatch, saving the disk bandwidth for higher priority ones.
Note: this doesn't touch the non_rotational + NCQ case (no hardware
to test if this is a benefit in that case).

When the number of processes performing I/O concurrently increases,
a fixed time slice per process will cause large latencies.
This patch, if low_latency mode is enabled, will scale the time slice
assigned to each process according to a 300ms target latency.
In order to keep fairness among processes:
* The number of active processes is computed using a special form of
running average, that quickly follows sudden increases (to keep latency low),
and decrease slowly (to have fairness in spite of rapid decreases of this
value).
To safeguard sequential bandwidth, we impose a minimum time slice
(computed using 2*cfq_slice_idle as base, adjusted according to priority
and async-ness).

Currently there is no barrier support in the block device code. That
means we cannot guarantee any sort of data integerity when using the
block device node with dis kwrite caches enabled. Using the raw block
device node is a typical use case for virtualization (and I assume
databases, too). This patch changes block_fsync to issue a cache flush
and thus make fsync on block device nodes actually useful.
Note that in mainline we would also need to add such code to the
->aio_write method for O_SYNC handling, but assuming that Jan's patch
series for the O_SYNC rewrite goes in it will also call into ->fsync
for 2.6.32.

Hi,
Some workloads issue batches of small I/O, and the performance is poor
due to the call to blk_run_address_space for every single iocb. Nathan
Roberts pointed this out, and suggested that by deferring this call
until all I/Os in the iocb array are submitted to the block layer, we
can realize some impressive performance gains (up to 30% for sequential
4k reads in batches of 16).

Hi,
The WRITE_ODIRECT flag is only used in one place, and that code path
happens to also call blk_run_address_space. The introduction of this
flag, then, could result in the device being unplugged twice for every
I/O.
Further, with the batching changes in the next patch, we don't want an
O_DIRECT write to imply a queue unplug.

If active queue hasn't enough requests and idle window opens, cfq will not
dispatch sufficient requests to hardware. In such situation, current code
will zero hw_tag. But this is because cfq doesn't dispatch enough requests

The flag used to indicate that a cfqq was allowed to jump ahead in the
scheduling order due to submitting a request close to the queue that
just executed. Since closely cooperating queues are now merged, the flag
holds little meaning. Change it to indicate that multiple queues were
merged. This will later be used to allow the breaking up of merged queues
when they are no longer cooperating.

When cooperating cfq_queues are detected currently, they are allowed to
skip ahead in the scheduling order. It is much more efficient to
automatically share the cfq_queue data structure between cooperating processes.

async cfq_queue's are already shared between processes within the same
priority, and forthcoming patches will change the mapping of cic to sync
cfq_queue from 1:1 to 1:N. So, calculate the seekiness of a process
based on the cfq_queue instead of the cfq_io_context.

AS is mostly a subset of CFQ, so there's little point in still
providing this separate IO scheduler. Hopefully at some point we
can get down to one single IO scheduler again, at least this brings
us closer by having only one intelligent IO scheduler.

They should be reimplemented in the current scheme.

It is force-included on the gcc command line since at least 2.6.15.
Explicit include lines seem to break compilation now in certain configurations.

Since 2.6.31 now has request-based device-mapper, it's useful to have
a tracepoint for request-remapping as well as bio-remapping.
This patch adds a tracepoint for request-remapping, trace_block_rq_remap().

Currently we set the bio size to the byte equivalent of the blocks to
be trimmed when submitting the initial DISCARD ioctl. That means it
is subject to the max_hw_sectors limitation of the HBA which is
much lower than the size of a DISCARD request we can support.
Add a separate max_discard_sectors tunable to limit the size for discard
requests.
We limit the max discard request size in bytes to 32bit as that is the
limit for bio->bi_size. This could be much larger if we had a way to pass
that information through the block layer.

prepare_discard_fn() was being called in a place where memory allocation
was effectively impossible. This makes it inappropriate for all but
the most trivial translations of Linux's DISCARD operation to the block
command set. Additionally adding a payload there makes the ownership
of the bio backing unclear as it's now allocated by the device driver
and not the submitter as usual.
It is replaced with QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD which is used to indicate whether
the queue supports discard operations or not. blkdev_issue_discard now
allocates a one-page, sector-length payload which is the right thing
for the common ATA and SCSI implementations.
The mtd implementation of prepare_discard_fn() is replaced with simply
checking for the request being a discard.
Largely based on a previous patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx>
which did the prepare_discard_fn but not the different payload allocation
yet.
