Debt forgiveness logic was counting the number of consecutive !busy periods
as the trigger condition. While this usually works, it can easily be thrown
off by temporary fluctuations especially on configurations w/ short periods.
This patch reimplements debt forgiveness so that:
* Use the average usage over the forgiveness period instead of counting
consecutive periods.
* Debt is reduced at around the target rate (1/2 every 100ms) regardless of
ioc period duration.
* Usage threshold is raised to 50%. Combined with the preceding changes and
the switch to average usage, this makes debt forgivness a lot more
effective at reducing the amount of unnecessary idleness.
* Constants are renamed with DFGV_ prefix.

Debt sets the initial delay duration which is decayed over time. The current
debt reduction halved the debt but didn't change the delay. It prevented
future debts from increasing delay but didn't do anything to lower the
existing delay, limiting the mechanism's ability to reduce unnecessary
idling.
Reset iocg->delay to 0 after debt reduction so that iocg_kick_waitq()
recalculates new delay value based on the reduced debt amount.

Debt reduction was blocked if any iocg was short on budget in the past
period to avoid reducing debts while some iocgs are saturated. However, this
ends up unnecessarily blocking debt reduction due to temporary local
imbalances when the device is generally being underutilized, while also
failing to block when the underlying device is overwhelmed and the usage
becomes low from high latency.
Given that debt accumulation mostly happens with swapout bursts which can
significantly deteriorate the underlying device's latency response, the
current logic is not great.
Let's replace it with ioc->busy_level based condition so that we block debt
reduction when the underlying device is being saturated. ioc_forgive_debts()
call is moved after busy_level determination.

The BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES is one of the few bits of information in the
backing_dev_info shared between the block drivers and the writeback code.
To help untangling the dependency replace it with a queue flag and a
superblock flag derived from it. This also helps with the case of e.g.
a file system requiring stable writes due to its own checksumming, but
not forcing it on other users of the block device like the swap code.
One downside is that we an't support the stable_pages_required bdi
attribute in sysfs anymore. It is replaced with a queue attribute which
also is writable for easier testing.

Drivers shouldn't really mess with the readahead size, as that is a VM
concept. Instead set it based on the optimal I/O size by lifting the
algorithm from the md driver when registering the disk. Also set
bdi->io_pages there as well by applying the same scheme based on
max_sectors. To ensure the limits work well for stacking drivers a
new helper is added to update the readahead limits from the block
limits, which is also called from disk_stack_limits.

It is possible, albeit more unlikely, for a block device to have a non
power-of-2 for chunk_sectors (e.g. 10+2 RAID6 with 128K chunk_sectors,
which results in a full-stripe size of 1280K. This causes the RAID6's
io_opt to be advertised as 1280K, and a stacked device _could_ then be
made to use a blocksize, aka chunk_sectors, that matches non power-of-2
io_opt of underlying RAID6 -- resulting in stacked device's
chunk_sectors being a non power-of-2).
Update blk_queue_chunk_sectors() and blk_max_size_offset() to
accommodate drivers that need a non power-of-2 chunk_sectors.

Like 'io_opt', blk_stack_limits() should stack 'chunk_sectors' using
lcm_not_zero() rather than min_not_zero() -- otherwise the final
'chunk_sectors' could result in sub-optimal alignment of IO to
component devices in the IO stack.
Also, if 'chunk_sectors' isn't a multiple of 'physical_block_size'
then it is a bug in the driver and the device should be flagged as
'misaligned'.

When CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is disabled, allow using host-aware ZBC disks as
regular disks. In this case, ensure that command completion is correctly
executed by changing sd_zbc_complete() to return good_bytes instead of 0
and causing a hang during device probe (endless retries).
When CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is enabled and a host-aware disk is detected to
have partitions, it will be used as a regular disk. In this case, make sure
to not do anything in sd_zbc_revalidate_zones() as that triggers warnings.
Since all these different cases result in subtle settings of the disk queue
zoned model, introduce the block layer helper function
blk_queue_set_zoned() to generically implement setting up the effective
zoned model according to the disk type, the presence of partitions on the
disk and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED configuration.

The tg_may_dispatch() will call tg_with_in_bps_limit() and
tg_with_in_iops_limit() to check if we can dispatch a bio or
not, which will calculate bps/iops limitation multiple times.
But tg_may_dispatch() is always called under queue lock, which
means the bps/iops limitation will not change in tg_may_dispatch().
So we can calculate the bps/iops limitation only once, and pass
them to tg_with_in_bps_limit() and tg_with_in_iops_limit() to
avoid calculating bps/iops limitation repeatedly.

adjust_inuse_and_calc_cost() is responsible for reducing the amount of
donated weights dynamically in period as the budget runs low. Because we
don't want to do full donation calculation in period, we keep latching up
inuse by INUSE_ADJ_STEP_PCT of the active weight of the cgroup until the
resulting hweight_inuse is satisfactory.
Unfortunately, the adj_step calculation was reading the active weight before
acquiring ioc->lock. Because the current thread could have lost race to
activate the iocg to another thread before entering this function, it may
read the active weight as zero before acquiring ioc->lock. When this
happens, the adj_step is calculated as zero and the incremental adjustment
loop becomes an infinite one.
Fix it by fetching the active weight after acquiring ioc->lock.

NVMe shares tagset between fabric queue and admin queue or between
connect_q and NS queue, so hctx_may_queue() can be called to allocate
request for these queues.
Tags can be reserved in these tagset. Before error recovery, there is
often lots of in-flight requests which can't be completed, and new
reserved request may be needed in error recovery path. However,
hctx_may_queue() can always return false because there is too many
in-flight requests which can't be completed during error handling.
Finally, nothing can proceed.
Fix this issue by always allowing reserved tag allocation in
hctx_may_queue(). This is reasonable because reserved tags are supposed
to always be available.

Analysis of above 3 test results with different system load:
>From above test, we can see more and more continuous bios can be plugged
with system load increasing. When run "stress -c 64 &", 310 continuous
bios are plugged; When run "stress -c 32 &", 260 continuous bios are
plugged; When don't run stress, at most only 2 continuous bios are
plugged, in most cases, bio_list only contains one single bio.
How to explain above phenomenon:
We know, in submit_bio(), if the bio is a REQ_CGROUP_PUNT io, it will
queue a work to workqueue blkcg_punt_bio_wq. But when the workqueue is
scheduled, it depends on the system load. When system load is low, the
workqueue will be quickly scheduled, and the bio in bio_list will be
quickly processed in blkg_async_bio_workfn(), so there is less chance
that the same io submit thread can add multiple continuous bios to
bio_list before workqueue is scheduled to run. The analysis aligned with
above test "3".
When system load is high, there is some delay before the workqueue can
be scheduled to run, the higher the system load the greater the delay.
So there is more chance that the same io submit thread can add multiple
continuous bios to bio_list. Then when the workqueue is scheduled to run,
there are more continuous bios in bio_list, which will be processed in
blkg_async_bio_workfn(). The analysis aligned with above test "1" and "2".
According to test, we can get io performance improved with the patch,
especially when system load is higher. Another optimazition is to use
the plug only when bio_list contains at least 2 bios.

High CPU utilization on "native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath" due to lock
contention is possible for mq-deadline and bfq IO schedulers
when nr_hw_queues is more than one.
It is because kblockd work queue can submit IO from all online CPUs
(through blk_mq_run_hw_queues()) even though only one hctx has pending
commands.
The elevator callback .has_work for mq-deadline and bfq scheduler considers
pending work if there are any IOs on request queue but it does not account
hctx context.
Add a per-hctx 'elevator_queued' count to the hctx to avoid triggering
the elevator even though there are no requests queued.

Some SCSI HBAs (such as HPSA, megaraid, mpt3sas, hisi_sas_v3 ..) support
multiple reply queues with single hostwide tags.
In addition, these drivers want to use interrupt assignment in
pci_alloc_irq_vectors(PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY). However, as discussed in [0],
CPU hotplug may cause in-flight IO completion to not be serviced when an
interrupt is shutdown. That problem is solved in commit bf0beec060
("blk-mq: drain I/O when all CPUs in a hctx are offline").
However, to take advantage of that blk-mq feature, the HBA HW queuess are
required to be mapped to that of the blk-mq hctx's; to do that, the HBA HW
queues need to be exposed to the upper layer.
In making that transition, the per-SCSI command request tags are no
longer unique per Scsi host - they are just unique per hctx. As such, the
HBA LLDD would have to generate this tag internally, which has a certain
performance overhead.
However another problem is that blk-mq assumes the host may accept
(Scsi_host.can_queue * #hw queue) commands. In commit 6eb045e092 ("scsi:
core: avoid host-wide host_busy counter for scsi_mq"), the Scsi host busy
counter was removed, which would stop the LLDD being sent more than
.can_queue commands; however, it should still be ensured that the block
layer does not issue more than .can_queue commands to the Scsi host.
To solve this problem, introduce a shared sbitmap per blk_mq_tag_set,
which may be requested at init time.
New flag BLK_MQ_F_TAG_HCTX_SHARED should be set when requesting the
tagset to indicate whether the shared sbitmap should be used.
Even when BLK_MQ_F_TAG_HCTX_SHARED is set, a full set of tags and requests
are still allocated per hctx; the reason for this is that if tags and
requests were only allocated for a single hctx - like hctx0 - it may break
block drivers which expect a request be associated with a specific hctx,
i.e. not always hctx0. This will introduce extra memory usage.
This change is based on work originally from Ming Lei in [1] and from
Bart's suggestion in [2].

When an iocg accumulates too much vtime or gets deactivated, we throw away
some vtime, which lowers the overall device utilization. As the exact amount
which is being thrown away is known, we can compensate by accelerating the
vrate accordingly so that the extra vtime generated in the current period
matches what got lost.
This significantly improves work conservation when involving high weight
cgroups with intermittent and bursty IO patterns.

Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
A low weight iocg can amass a large amount of debt, for example, when
anonymous memory gets reclaimed aggressively. If the system has a lot of
memory paired with a slow IO device, the debt can span multiple seconds or
more. If there are no other subsequent IO issuers, the in-debt iocg may end
up blocked paying its debt while the IO device is idle.
This patch implements a mechanism to protect against such pathological
cases. If the device has been sufficiently idle for a substantial amount of
time, the debts are halved. The criteria are on the conservative side as we
want to resolve the rare extreme cases without impacting regular operation
by forgiving debts too readily.

Curently, iocost syncs the delay duration to the outstanding debt amount,
which seemed enough to protect the system from anon memory hogs. However,
that was mostly because the delay calcuation was using hweight_inuse which
quickly converges towards zero under debt for delay duration calculation,
often pusnishing debtors overly harshly for longer than deserved.
The previous patch fixed the delay calcuation and now the protection against
anonymous memory hogs isn't enough because the effect of delay is indirect
and non-linear and a huge amount of future debt can accumulate abruptly
while unthrottled.
This patch implements delay hysteresis so that delay is decayed
exponentially over time instead of getting cleared immediately as debt is
paid off. While the overall behavior is similar to the blk-cgroup
implementation used by blk-iolatency, a lot of the details are different and
due to the empirical nature of the mechanism, it's challenging to adapt the
mechanism for one controller without negatively impacting the other.
As the delay is gradually decayed now, there's no point in running it from
its own hrtimer. Periodic updates are now performed from ioc_timer_fn() and
the dedicated hrtimer is removed.

Debt handling had several issues.
* How much inuse a debtor carries wasn't clearly defined. inuse would be
driven down over time from not issuing IOs but it'd be better to clamp it
to minimum immediately once in debt.
* How much can be paid off was determined by hweight_inuse. As inuse was
driven down, the payment amount would fall together regardless of the
debtor's active weight. This means that the debtors were punished harshly.
* ioc_rqos_merge() wasn't calling blkcg_schedule_throttle() after
iocg_kick_delay().
This patch revamps debt handling so that
* Debt handling owns inuse for iocgs in debt and keeps them at zero.
* Payment amount is determined by hweight_active. This is more deterministic
and safer than hweight_inuse but still far from ideal in that it doesn't
factor in possible donations from other iocgs for debt payments. This
likely needs further improvements in the future.
* iocg_rqos_merge() now calls blkcg_schedule_throttle() as necessary.

When the margin drops below the minimum on a donating iocg, donation is
immediately canceled in full. There are a couple shortcomings with the
current behavior.
* It's abrupt. A small temporary budget deficit can lead to a wide swing in
weight allocation and a large surplus.
* It's open coded in the issue path but not implemented for the merge path.
A series of merges at a low inuse can make the iocg incur debts and stall
incorrectly.
This patch reimplements in-period donation snapbacks so that
* inuse adjustment and cost calculations are factored into
adjust_inuse_and_calc_cost() which is called from both the issue and merge
paths.
* Snapbacks are more gradual. It occurs in quarter steps.
* A snapback triggers if the margin goes below the low threshold and is
lower than the budget at the time of the last adjustment.
* For the above, __propagate_weights() stores the margin in
iocg->saved_margin. Move iocg->last_inuse storing together into
__propagate_weights() for consistency.
* Full snapback is guaranteed when there are waiters.
* With precise donation and gradual snapbacks, inuse adjustments are now a
lot more effective and the value of scaling inuse on weight changes isn't
clear. Removed inuse scaling from weight_update().

iocost has various safety nets to combat inuse adjustment calculation
inaccuracies. With Andy's method implemented in transfer_surpluses(), inuse
adjustment calculations are now accurate and we can make donation amount
determinations accurate too.
* Stop keeping track of past usage history and using the maximum. Act on the
immediate usage information.
* Remove donation constraints defined by SURPLUS_* constants. Donate
whatever isn't used.
* Determine the donation amount so that the iocg will end up with
MARGIN_TARGET_PCT budget at the end of the coming period assuming the same
usage as the previous period. TARGET is set at 50% of period, which is the
previous maximum. This provides smooth convergence for most repetitive IO
patterns.
* Apply donation logic early at 20% budget. There's no risk in doing so as
the calculation is based on the delta between the current budget and the
target budget at the end of the coming period.
* Remove preemptive iocg activation for zero cost IOs. As donation can reach
near zero now, the mere activation doesn't provide any protection anymore.
In the unlikely case that this becomes a problem, the right solution is
assigning appropriate costs for such IOs.
This significantly improves the donation determination logic while also
simplifying it. Now all donations are immediate, exact and smooth.

iocost implements work conservation by reducing iocg->inuse and propagating
the adjustment upwards proportionally. However, while I knew the target
absolute hierarchical proportion - adjusted hweight_inuse, I couldn't figure
out how to determine the iocg->inuse adjustment to achieve that and
approximated the adjustment by scaling iocg->inuse using the proportion of
the needed hweight_inuse changes.
When nested, these scalings aren't accurate even when adjusting a single
node as the donating node also receives the benefit of the donated portion.
When multiple nodes are donating as they often do, they can be wildly wrong.
iocost employed various safety nets to combat the inaccuracies. There are
ample buffers in determining how much to donate, the adjustments are
conservative and gradual. While it can achieve a reasonable level of work
conservation in simple scenarios, the inaccuracies can easily add up leading
to significant loss of total work. This in turn makes it difficult to
closely cap vrate as vrate adjustment is needed to compensate for the loss
of work. The combination of inaccurate donation calculations and vrate
adjustments can lead to wide fluctuations and clunky overall behaviors.
Andy Newell devised a method to calculate the needed ->inuse updates to
achieve the target hweight_inuse's. The method is compatible with the
proportional inuse adjustment propagation which allows all hot path
operations to be local to each iocg.
To roughly summarize, Andy's method divides the tree into donating and
non-donating parts, calculates global donation rate which is used to
determine the target hweight_inuse for each node, and then derives per-level
proportions. There's non-trivial amount of math involved. Please refer to
the following pdfs for detailed descriptions.

The way the surplus donation logic is structured isn't great. There are two
separate paths for starting/increasing donations and decreasing them making
the logic harder to follow and is prone to unnecessary behavior differences.
In preparation for improved donation handling, this patch restructures the
code so that
* All donors - new, increasing and decreasing - are funneled through the
same code path.
* The target donation calculation is factored into hweight_after_donation()
which is called once from the same spot for all possible donors.
* Actual inuse adjustment is factored into trasnfer_surpluses().
This change introduces a few behavior differences - e.g. donation amount
reduction now uses the max usage of the recent three periods just like new
and increasing donations, and inuse now gets adjusted upwards the same way
it gets downwards. These differences are unlikely to have severely negative
implications and the whole logic will be revamped soon.
This patch also removes two tracepoints. The existing TPs don't quite fit
the new implementation. A later patch will update and reinstate them.

Budget donations are inaccurate and could take multiple periods to converge.
To prevent triggering vrate adjustments while surplus transfers were
catching up, vrate adjustment was suppressed if donations were increasing,
which was indicated by non-zero nr_surpluses.

mechanism which will make it precise and immediate. Let's decouple the two

Currently, iocg->usages[] which are used to guide inuse adjustments are
calculated from vtime deltas. This, however, assumes that the hierarchical
inuse weight at the time of calculation held for the entire period, which
often isn't true and can lead to significant errors.
Now that we have absolute usage information collected, we can derive
iocg->usages[] from iocg->local_stat.usage_us so that inuse adjustment
decisions are made based on actual absolute usage. The calculated usage is
clamped between 1 and WEIGHT_ONE and WEIGHT_ONE is also used to signal
saturation regardless of the current hierarchical inuse weight.

Currently, iocost doesn't collect or expose any statistics punting off all
monitoring duties to drgn based iocost_monitor.py. While it works for some
scenarios, there are some usability and data availability challenges. For
example, accurate per-cgroup usage information can't be tracked by vtime
progression at all and the number available in iocg->usages[] are really
short-term snapshots used for control heuristics with possibly significant
errors.
This patch implements per-cgroup absolute usage stat counter and exposes it
through io.stat along with the current vrate. Usage stat collection and
flushing employ the same method as cgroup rstat on the active iocg's and the
only hot path overhead is preemption toggling and adding to a percpu
counter.

The margin handling was pretty inconsistent.
* ioc->margin_us and ioc->inuse_margin_vtime were used as vtime margin
thresholds. However, the two are in different units with the former
requiring conversion to vtime on use.
* iocg_kick_waitq() was using a quarter of WAITQ_TIMER_MARGIN_PCT of
period_us as the timer slack - ~1.2%. While iocg_kick_delay() was using a
quarter of ioc->margin_us - ~12.5%. There aren't strong reasons to use
different values for the two.
This patch cleans up margin and timer slack handling:
* vtime margins are now recorded in ioc->margins.{min, max} on period
duration changes and used consistently.
* Timer slack is now 1% of period_us and recorded in ioc->timer_slack_ns and
used consistently for iocg_kick_waitq() and iocg_kick_delay().
The only functional change is shortening of timer slack. No meaningful
visible change is expected.
