* block: Fix handling of tasks without ioprio in ioprio_get(2)Jan Kara2022-06-271-7/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ioprio_get(2) can be asked to return the best IO priority from several tasks (IOPRIO_WHO_PGRP, IOPRIO_WHO_USER). Currently the call treats tasks without set IO priority as having priority IOPRIO_CLASS_BE/IOPRIO_BE_NORM however this does not really reflect the IO priority the task will get (which depends on task's nice value). Fix the code to use the real IO priority task's IO will use. We have to modify code for ioprio_get(IOPRIO_WHO_PROCESS) to keep returning IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE priority for tasks without set IO priority as a special case to maintain userspace visible API.

* block: Generalize get_current_ioprio() for any taskJan Kara2022-06-271-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_current_ioprio() operates only on current task. We will need the same functionality for other tasks as well. Generalize get_current_ioprio() for that and also move the bulk out of the header file because it is large enough.

* block: fix default IO priority handling againJan Kara2022-06-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e70344c05995 ("block: fix default IO priority handling") introduced an inconsistency in get_current_ioprio() that tasks without IO context return IOPRIO_DEFAULT priority while tasks with freshly allocated IO context will return 0 (IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE/0) IO priority. Tasks without IO context used to be rare before 5a9d041ba2f6 ("block: move io_context creation into where it's needed") but after this commit they became common because now only BFQ IO scheduler setups task's IO context. Similar inconsistency is there for get_task_ioprio() so this inconsistency is now exposed to userspace and userspace will see different IO priority for tasks operating on devices with BFQ compared to devices without BFQ. Furthemore the changes done by commit e70344c05995 change the behavior when no IO priority is set for BFQ IO scheduler which is also documented in ioprio_set(2) manpage: "If no I/O scheduler has been set for a thread, then by default the I/O priority will follow the CPU nice value (setpriority(2)). In Linux kernels before version 2.6.24, once an I/O priority had been set using ioprio_set(), there was no way to reset the I/O scheduling behavior to the default. Since Linux 2.6.24, specifying ioprio as 0 can be used to reset to the default I/O scheduling behavior." So make sure we default to IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE as used to be the case before commit e70344c05995. Also cleanup alloc_io_context() to explicitely set this IO priority for the allocated IO context to avoid future surprises. Note that we tweak ioprio_best() to maintain ioprio_get(2) behavior and make this commit easily backportable.

* block: fix default IO priority handlingDamien Le Moal2021-08-181-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default IO priority is the best effort (BE) class with the normal priority level IOPRIO_NORM (4). However, get_task_ioprio() returns IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE/IOPRIO_NORM as the default priority and get_current_ioprio() returns IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE/0. Let's be consistent with the defined default and have both of these functions return the default priority IOPRIO_PRIO_VALUE(IOPRIO_CLASS_BE, IOPRIO_NORM) when the user did not define another default IO priority for the task. In include/uapi/linux/ioprio.h, introduce the IOPRIO_BE_NORM macro as an alias to IOPRIO_NORM to clarify that this default level applies to the BE priotity class. In include/linux/ioprio.h, define the macro IOPRIO_DEFAULT as IOPRIO_PRIO_VALUE(IOPRIO_CLASS_BE, IOPRIO_BE_NORM) and use this new macro when setting a priority to the default.

* block: Introduce IOPRIO_NR_LEVELSDamien Le Moal2021-08-181-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The BFQ scheduler and ioprio_check_cap() both assume that the RT priority class (IOPRIO_CLASS_RT) can have up to 8 different priority levels, similarly to the BE class (IOPRIO_CLASS_iBE). This is controlled using the IOPRIO_BE_NR macro , which is badly named as the number of levels also applies to the RT class. Introduce the class independent IOPRIO_NR_LEVELS macro, defined to 8, to make things clear. Keep the old IOPRIO_BE_NR macro definition as an alias for IOPRIO_NR_LEVELS.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Priority of a merged request is computed by ioprio_best(). If one of the requests has undefined priority (IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE) and another request has priority from IOPRIO_CLASS_BE, the function will return the undefined priority which is wrong. Fix the function to properly return priority of a request with the defined priority.
