implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

lcm() was defined to take integer-sized arguments. The supplied
arguments are multiplied, however, causing us to overflow given
sufficiently large input. That in turn led to incorrect optimal I/O
size reporting in some cases (RAID over RAID).

Commit 86b37281411cf1e9bc0a6b5406c45edb7bd9ea5d adds a check for
misaligned stacking offsets, but it's buggy since the defaults are 0.
Hence all dm devices that pass in a non-zero starting offset will

The discard ioctl is used by mkfs utilities to clear a block device
prior to putting metadata down. However, not all devices return zeroed
blocks after a discard. Some drives return stale data, potentially
containing old superblocks. It is therefore important to know whether
discarded blocks are properly zeroed.
Both ATA and SCSI drives have configuration bits that indicate whether
zeroes are returned after a discard operation. Implement a block level
interface that allows this information to be bubbled up the stack and
queried via a new block device ioctl.

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.

To support devices with physical block sizes bigger than 512 bytes we
need to ensure proper alignment. This patch adds support for exposing
I/O topology characteristics as devices are stacked.
logical_block_size is the smallest unit the device can address.
physical_block_size indicates the smallest I/O the device can write
without incurring a read-modify-write penalty.
The io_min parameter is the smallest preferred I/O size reported by
the device. In many cases this is the same as the physical block
size. However, the io_min parameter can be scaled up when stacking
(RAID5 chunk size > physical block size).
The io_opt characteristic indicates the optimal I/O size reported by
the device. This is usually the stripe width for arrays.
The alignment_offset parameter indicates the number of bytes the start
of the device/partition is offset from the device's natural alignment.
Partition tools and MD/DM utilities can use this to pad their offsets
so filesystems start on proper boundaries.

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

Impact: don't set GFP_DMA in q->bounce_gfp unnecessarily
All DMA address limits are expressed in terms of the last addressable
unit (byte or page) instead of one plus that. However, when
determining bounce_gfp for 64bit machines in blk_queue_bounce_limit(),
it compares the specified limit against 0x100000000UL to determine
whether it's below 4G ending up falsely setting GFP_DMA in
q->bounce_gfp.
As DMA zone is very small on x86_64, this makes larger SG_IO transfers
very eager to trigger OOM killer. Fix it. While at it, rename the
parameter to @dma_mask for clarity and convert comment to proper
winged style.

Fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask for stacked md/dm
devices.
When stacking devices (LVM over MD over SCSI) some of the request queue
parameters are not set up correctly in some cases by default, namely
max_segment_size and and seg_boundary mask.
If you create MD device over SCSI, these attributes are zeroed.
Problem become when there is over this mapping next device-mapper mapping
- queue attributes are set in DM this way:
request_queue max_segment_size seg_boundary_mask
SCSI 65536 0xffffffff
MD RAID1 0 0
LVM 65536 -1 (64bit)
Unfortunately bio_add_page (resp. bio_phys_segments) calculates number of
physical segments according to these parameters.
During the generic_make_request() is segment cout recalculated and can
increase bio->bi_phys_segments count over the allowed limit. (After
bio_clone() in stack operation.)
Thi is specially problem in CCISS driver, where it produce OOPS here
BUG_ON(creq->nr_phys_segments > MAXSGENTRIES);
(MAXSEGENTRIES is 31 by default.)
Sometimes even this command is enough to cause oops:
dd iflag=direct if=/dev/<vg>/<lv> of=/dev/null bs=128000 count=10
This command generates bios with 250 sectors, allocated in 32 4k-pages
(last page uses only 1024 bytes).
For LVM layer, it allocates bio with 31 segments (still OK for CCISS),
unfortunatelly on lower layer it is recalculated to 32 segments and this
violates CCISS restriction and triggers BUG_ON().
The patch tries to fix it by:
* initializing attributes above in queue request constructor
blk_queue_make_request()
* make sure that blk_queue_stack_limits() inherits setting
(DM uses its own function to set the limits because it
blk_queue_stack_limits() was introduced later. It should probably switch
to use generic stack limit function too.)
* sets the default seg_boundary value in one place (blkdev.h)
* use this mask as default in DM (instead of -1, which differs in 64bit)

This patch adds an new interface, blk_lld_busy(), to check lld's
busy state from the block layer.
blk_lld_busy() calls down into low-level drivers for the checking
if the drivers set q->lld_busy_fn() using blk_queue_lld_busy().
This resolves a performance problem on request stacking devices below.
Some drivers like scsi mid layer stop dispatching request when
they detect busy state on its low-level device like host/target/device.
It allows other requests to stay in the I/O scheduler's queue
for a chance of merging.
Request stacking drivers like request-based dm should follow
the same logic.
However, there is no generic interface for the stacked device
to check if the underlying device(s) are busy.
If the request stacking driver dispatches and submits requests to
the busy underlying device, the requests will stay in
the underlying device's queue without a chance of merging.
This causes performance problem on burst I/O load.
With this patch, busy state of the underlying device is exported
via q->lld_busy_fn(). So the request stacking driver can check it
and stop dispatching requests if busy.
The underlying device driver must return the busy state appropriately:
1: when the device driver can't process requests immediately.
0: when the device driver can process requests immediately,
including abnormal situations where the device driver needs
to kill all requests.

Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling.
Move those bits to the block layer.
Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever
and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to
tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot
less timer fiddling.
