| * block: introduce blk_queue_clear_zone_settings()Damien Le Moal2021-02-103-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce the internal function blk_queue_clear_zone_settings() to cleanup all limits and resources related to zoned block devices. This new function is called from blk_queue_set_zoned() when a disk zoned model is set to BLK_ZONED_NONE. This particular case can happens when a partition is created on a host-aware scsi disk.

| * block: introduce zone_write_granularity limitDamien Le Moal2021-02-102-1/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per ZBC and ZAC specifications, host-managed SMR hard-disks mandate that all writes into sequential write required zones be aligned to the device physical block size. However, NVMe ZNS does not have this constraint and allows write operations into sequential zones to be aligned to the device logical block size. This inconsistency does not help with software portability across device types. To solve this, introduce the zone_write_granularity queue limit to indicate the alignment constraint, in bytes, of write operations into zones of a zoned block device. This new limit is exported as a read-only sysfs queue attribute and the helper blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() introduced for drivers to set this limit. The function blk_queue_set_zoned() is modified to set this new limit to the device logical block size by default. NVMe ZNS devices as well as zoned nullb devices use this default value as is. The scsi disk driver is modified to execute the blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() helper to set the zone write granularity of host-managed SMR disks to the disk physical block size. The accessor functions queue_zone_write_granularity() and bdev_zone_write_granularity() are also introduced.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently whenever bfq queue has a request queued we add now - last_completion_time to the think time statistics. This is however misleading in case the process is able to submit several requests in parallel because e.g. if the queue has request completed at time T0 and then queues new requests at times T1, T2, then we will add T1-T0 and T2-T0 to think time statistics which just doesn't make any sence (the queue's think time is penalized by the queue being able to submit more IO). So add to think time statistics only time intervals when the queue had no IO pending.

However if the in-service queue is freshly scheduled and didn't dispatch any requests yet, bfqd->in_serv_last_pos is stale and contains value from the previously scheduled bfq queue which can thus result in a bogus decision that the two queues should be merged. This bug can be observed for example with the following fio jobfile: [global] direct=0 ioengine=sync invalidate=1 size=1g rw=read [reader] numjobs=4 directory=/mnt where the 4 processes will end up in the one shared bfq queue although they do IO to physically very distant files (for some reason I was able to observe this only with slice_idle=1ms setting). Fix the problem by invalidating bfqd->in_serv_last_pos when switching in-service queue.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upon an I/O-dispatch attempt, BFQ may detect that it was better to plug I/O dispatch, and to wait for a new request to arrive for the currently in-service queue. But the arrival of a new request for an empty bfq_queue, and thus the switch from idle to busy of the bfq_queue, may cause the scenario to change, and make plugging no longer needed for service guarantees, or more convenient for throughput. In this case, keeping I/O-dispatch plugged would certainly lower throughput. To address this issue, this commit makes such a check, and stops plugging I/O if it is better to stop plugging I/O.

The new logic measures the percentage of time during which a bfq_queue is active, and marks the bfq_queue as I/O bound if the latter if this percentage is above a fixed threshold.

| * blk-mq: Improve performance of non-mq IO schedulers with multiple HW queuesJan Kara2021-01-242-6/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when non-mq aware IO scheduler (BFQ, mq-deadline) is used for a queue with multiple HW queues, the performance it rather bad. The problem is that these IO schedulers use queue-wide locking and their dispatch function does not respect the hctx it is passed in and returns any request it finds appropriate. Thus locality of request access is broken and dispatch from multiple CPUs just contends on IO scheduler locks. For these IO schedulers there's little point in dispatching from multiple CPUs. Instead dispatch always only from a single CPU to limit contention. Below is a comparison of dbench runs on XFS filesystem where the storage is a raid card with 64 HW queues and to it attached a single rotating disk. BFQ is used as IO scheduler: clients MQ SQ MQ-Patched Amean 1 39.12 (0.00%) 43.29 * -10.67%* 36.09 * 7.74%* Amean 2 128.58 (0.00%) 101.30 * 21.22%* 96.14 * 25.23%* Amean 4 577.42 (0.00%) 494.47 * 14.37%* 508.49 * 11.94%* Amean 8 610.95 (0.00%) 363.86 * 40.44%* 362.12 * 40.73%* Amean 16 391.78 (0.00%) 261.49 * 33.25%* 282.94 * 27.78%* Amean 32 324.64 (0.00%) 267.71 * 17.54%* 233.00 * 28.23%* Amean 64 295.04 (0.00%) 253.02 * 14.24%* 242.37 * 17.85%* Amean 512 10281.61 (0.00%) 10211.16 * 0.69%* 10447.53 * -1.61%* Numbers are times so lower is better. MQ is stock 5.10-rc6 kernel. SQ is the same kernel with megaraid_sas.host_tagset_enable=0 so that the card advertises just a single HW queue. MQ-Patched is a kernel with this patch applied. You can see multiple hardware queues heavily hurt performance in combination with BFQ. The patch restores the performance.

Since both mq-deadline and BFQ completely ignore hctx they are passed to their dispatch function and dispatch whatever request they deem fit checking whether any request for a particular hctx is queued is just pointless since we'll very likely get a request from a different hctx anyway. In the following commit we'll deal with lock contention in these IO schedulers in presence of multiple HW queues in a different way.

| * block, bfq: do not expire a queue when it is the only busy onePaolo Valente2021-01-241-2/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commits preserves I/O-dispatch plugging for a special symmetric case that may suddenly turn into asymmetric: the case where only one bfq_queue, say bfqq, is busy. In this case, not expiring bfqq does not cause any harm to any other queues in terms of service guarantees. In contrast, it avoids the following unlucky sequence of events: (1) bfqq is expired, (2) a new queue with a lower weight than bfqq becomes busy (or more queues), (3) the new queue is served until a new request arrives for bfqq, (4) when bfqq is finally served, there are so many requests of the new queue in the drive that the pending requests for bfqq take a lot of time to be served. In particular, event (2) may case even already dispatched requests of bfqq to be delayed, inside the drive. So, to avoid this series of events, the scenario is preventively declared as asymmetric also if bfqq is the only busy queues. By doing so, I/O-dispatch plugging is performed for bfqq.

| * block, bfq: avoid spurious switches to soft_rt of interactive queuesPaolo Valente2021-01-241-20/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | BFQ tags some bfq_queues as interactive or soft_rt if it deems that these bfq_queues contain the I/O of, respectively, interactive or soft real-time applications. BFQ privileges both these special types of bfq_queues over normal bfq_queues. To privilege a bfq_queue, BFQ mainly raises the weight of the bfq_queue. In particular, soft_rt bfq_queues get a higher weight than interactive bfq_queues. A bfq_queue may turn from interactive to soft_rt. And this leads to a tricky issue. Soft real-time applications usually start with an I/O-bound, interactive phase, in which they load themselves into main memory. BFQ correctly detects this phase, and keeps the bfq_queues associated with the application in interactive mode for a while. Problems arise when the I/O pattern of the application finally switches to soft real-time. One of the conditions for a bfq_queue to be deemed as soft_rt is that the bfq_queue does not consume too much bandwidth. But the bfq_queues associated with a soft real-time application consume as much bandwidth as they can in the loading phase of the application. So, after the application becomes truly soft real-time, a lot of time should pass before the average bandwidth consumed by its bfq_queues finally drops to a value acceptable for soft_rt bfq_queues. As a consequence, there might be a time gap during which the application is not privileged at all, because its bfq_queues are not interactive any longer, but cannot be deemed as soft_rt yet. To avoid this problem, BFQ pretends that an interactive bfq_queue consumes zero bandwidth, and allows an interactive bfq_queue to switch to soft_rt. Yet, this fake zero-bandwidth consumption easily causes the bfq_queue to often switch to soft_rt deceptively, during its loading phase. As in soft_rt mode, the bfq_queue gets its bandwidth correctly computed, and therefore soon switches back to interactive. Then it switches again to soft_rt, and so on. These spurious fluctuations usually cause losses of throughput, because they deceive BFQ's mechanisms for boosting throughput (injection, I/O-plugging avoidance, ...). This commit addresses this issue as follows: 1) It does compute actual bandwidth consumption also for interactive bfq_queues. This avoids the above false positives. 2) When a bfq_queue switches from interactive to normal mode, the consumed bandwidth is reset (forgotten). This allows the bfq_queue to enjoy soft_rt very quickly. In particular, two alternatives are possible in this switch: - the bfq_queue still has backlog, and therefore there is a budget already scheduled to serve the bfq_queue; in this case, the scheduling of the current budget of the bfq_queue is not hindered, because only the scheduling of the next budget will be affected by the weight drop. After that, if the bfq_queue is actually in a soft_rt phase, and becomes empty during the service of its current budget, which is the natural behavior of a soft_rt bfq_queue, then the bfq_queue will be considered as soft_rt when its next I/O arrives. If, in contrast, the bfq_queue remains constantly non-empty, then its next budget will be scheduled with a low weight, which is the natural treatment for an I/O-bound (non soft_rt) bfq_queue. - the bfq_queue is empty; in this case, the bfq_queue may be considered unjustly soft_rt when its new I/O arrives. Yet the problem is now much smaller than before, because it is unlikely that more than one spurious fluctuation occurs.
