Nothing out of the ordinary in here, and no API changes or anything like that. Just various new features for drivers, core changes, etc. In particular, this pull request contains: - A patch series from Bart, closing the whole on blk/scsi-mq queue quescing. - A series from Christoph, building towards hidden gendisks (for multipath) and ability to move bio chains around. - NVMe - Support for native multipath for NVMe (Christoph). - Userspace notifications for AENs (Keith). - Command side-effects support (Keith). - SGL support (Chaitanya Kulkarni) - FC fixes and improvements (James Smart) - Lots of fixes and tweaks (Various) - bcache - New maintainer (Michael Lyle) - Writeback control improvements (Michael) - Various fixes (Coly, Elena, Eric, Liang, et al) - lightnvm updates, mostly centered around the pblk interface (Javier, Hans, and Rakesh). - Removal of unused bio/bvec kmap atomic interfaces (me, Christoph) - Writeback series that fix the much discussed hundreds of millions of sync-all units. This goes all the way, as discussed previously (me). - Fix for missing wakeup on writeback timer adjustments (Yafang Shao). - Fix laptop mode on blk-mq (me). - {mq,name} tupple lookup for IO schedulers, allowing us to have alias names. This means you can use 'deadline' on both !mq and on mq (where it's called mq-deadline). (me). - blktrace race fix, oopsing on sg load (me). - blk-mq optimizations (me). - Obscure waitqueue race fix for kyber (Omar). - NBD fixes (Josef). - Disable writeback throttling by default on bfq, like we do on cfq (Luca Miccio). - Series from Ming that enable us to treat flush requests on blk-mq like any other request. This is a really nice cleanup. - Series from Ming that improves merging on blk-mq with schedulers, getting us closer to flipping the switch on scsi-mq again. - BFQ updates (Paolo). - blk-mq atomic flags memory ordering fixes (Peter Z). - Loop cgroup support (Shaohua). - Lots of minor fixes from lots of different folks, both for core and driver code" * 'for-4.15/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (294 commits) nvme: fix visibility of "uuid" ns attribute blk-mq: fixup some comment typos and lengths ide: ide-atapi: fix compile error with defining macro DEBUG blk-mq: improve tag waiting setup for non-shared tags brd: remove unused brd_mutex blk-mq: only run the hardware queue if IO is pending block: avoid null pointer dereference on null disk fs: guard_bio_eod() needs to consider partitions xtensa/simdisk: fix compile error nvme: expose subsys attribute to sysfs nvme: create 'slaves' and 'holders' entries for hidden controllers block: create 'slaves' and 'holders' entries for hidden gendisks nvme: also expose the namespace identification sysfs files for mpath nodes nvme: implement multipath access to nvme subsystems nvme: track shared namespaces nvme: introduce a nvme_ns_ids structure nvme: track subsystems block, nvme: Introduce blk_mq_req_flags_t block, scsi: Make SCSI quiesce and resume work reliably block: Add the QUEUE_FLAG_PREEMPT_ONLY request queue flag ...
| * bcache: implement PI controller for writeback rateMichael Lyle2017-10-161-8/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bcache uses a control system to attempt to keep the amount of dirty data in cache at a user-configured level, while not responding excessively to transients and variations in write rate. Previously, the system was a PD controller; but the output from it was integrated, turning the Proportional term into an Integral term, and turning the Derivative term into a crude Proportional term. Performance of the controller has been uneven in production, and it has tended to respond slowly, oscillate, and overshoot. This patch set replaces the current control system with an explicit PI controller and tuning that should be correct for most hardware. By default, it attempts to write at a rate that would retire 1/40th of the current excess blocks per second. An integral term in turn works to remove steady state errors. IMO, this yields benefits in simplicity (removing weighted average filtering, etc) and system performance. Another small change is a tunable parameter is introduced to allow the user to specify a minimum rate at which dirty blocks are retired. There is a slight difference from earlier versions of the patch in integral handling to prevent excessive negative integral windup.

* | License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you encounter any errors in bch_cached_dev_attach it will return a negative error code.

* bcache: Rework btree cache reserve handlingKent Overstreet2014-03-181-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the bucket allocation reserves to use _real_ reserves - separate freelists - instead of watermarks, which if nothing else makes the current code saner to reason about and is going to be important in the future when we add support for multiple btrees. It also adds btree_check_reserve(), which checks (and locks) the reserves for both bucket allocation and memory allocation for btree nodes; the old code just kinda sorta assumed that since (e.g. for btree node splits) it had the root locked and that meant no other threads could try to make use of the same reserve; this technically should have been ok for memory allocation (we should always have a reserve for memory allocation (the btree node cache is used as a reserve and we preallocate it)), but multiple btrees will mean that locking the root won't be sufficient anymore, and for the bucket allocation reserve it was technically possible for the old code to deadlock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | We need a reserve for allocating buckets for new btree nodes - and now that we've got multiple btrees, it really needs to be per btree.

* bcache: Incremental gcKent Overstreet2013-11-101-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Big garbage collection rewrite; now, garbage collection uses the same mechanisms as used elsewhere for inserting/updating btree node pointers, instead of rewriting interior btree nodes in place. This makes the code significantly cleaner and less fragile, and means we can now make garbage collection incremental - it doesn't have to hold a write lock on the root of the btree for the entire duration of garbage collection. This means that there's less of a latency hit for doing garbage collection, which means we can gc more frequently (and do a better job of reclaiming from the cache), and we can coalesce across more btree nodes (improving our space efficiency).

I've added comments explaining what is broken, but I fear that some of the code would be best dealt with by being dragged behind the bike shed, burying in mud up to it's neck and then run over repeatedly with a blunt lawn mower. Special mention goes to the zcache/zcache2 drivers. They can't co-exist in the build at the same time, they are under different menu options in menuconfig, they only show up when you've got the right set of mm subsystem options configured and so even compile testing is an exercise in pulling teeth.
