This patch drops\nbarrier ordering by queue draining from block layer. Ordering by\ndraining implementation was somewhat invasive to request handling.\nList of notable changes follow.\n\n* Each queue has 1 bit color which is flipped on each barrier issue.\n This is used to track whether a given request is issued before the\n current barrier or not. REQ_ORDERED_COLOR flag and coloring\n implementation in __elv_add_request() are removed.\n\n* Requests which shouldn\u0027t be processed yet for draining were stalled\n by returning -EAGAIN from blk_do_ordered() according to the test\n result between blk_ordered_req_seq() and blk_blk_ordered_cur_seq().\n This logic is removed.\n\n* Draining completion logic in elv_completed_request() removed.\n\n* All barrier sequence requests were queued to request queue and then\n trckled to lower layer according to progress and thus maintaining\n request orders during requeue was necessary. This is replaced by\n queueing the next request in the barrier sequence only after the\n current one is complete from blk_ordered_complete_seq(), which\n removes the need for multiple proxy requests in struct request_queue\n and the request sorting logic in the ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE path of\n elv_insert().\n\n* As barriers no longer have ordering constraints, there\u0027s no need to\n dump the whole elevator onto the dispatch queue on each barrier.\n Insert barriers at the front instead.\n\n* If other barrier requests come to the front of the dispatch queue\n while one is already in progress, they are stored in\n q-\u003epending_barriers and restored to dispatch queue one-by-one after\n each barrier completion from blk_ordered_complete_seq().\n\nSigned-off-by: Tejun Heo \u003ctj@kernel.org\u003e\nCc: Christoph Hellwig \u003chch@infradead.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjaxboe@fusionio.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "5dd531a03ad721b41911ddb32e6e0481404e7aaf", "tree": "3d07d0aa902eb61a575bbc7cc2a57c03431e2b01", "parents": [ "220eb7fd984bfc7e6b4005fdf32efe9cd8af7cf2" ], "author": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "jaxboe@fusionio.com", "time": "Mon Aug 23 13:52:19 2010 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "jaxboe@fusionio.com", "time": "Mon Aug 23 13:52:19 2010 +0200" }, "message": "block: add function call to switch the IO scheduler from a driver\n\nCurrently drivers must do an elevator_exit() + elevator_init()\nto switch IO schedulers.

trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins\n - user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions\n ...\n\nCons:\n\n - no dev_t info for the output of plug, unplug_timer and unplug_io events.\n no dev_t info for getrq and sleeprq events if bio \u003d\u003d NULL.\n no dev_t info for rq_abort,...,rq_requeue events if rq-\u003erq_disk \u003d\u003d NULL.\n\n This is mainly because we can\u0027t get the deivce from a request queue.\n But this may change in the future.\n\n - A packet command is converted to a string in TP_assign, not TP_print.\n While blktrace do the convertion just before output.\n\n Since pc requests should be rather rare, this is not a big issue.\n\n - In blktrace, an event can have 2 different print formats, but a TRACE_EVENT\n has a unique format, which means we have some unused data in a trace entry.\n\n The overhead is minimized by using __dynamic_array() instead of __array().\n\nI\u0027ve benchmarked the ioctl blktrace vs the splice based TRACE_EVENT tracing:\n\n dd dd + ioctl blktrace dd + TRACE_EVENT (splice)\n1 7.36s, 42.7 MB/s 7.50s, 42.0 MB/s 7.41s, 42.5 MB/s\n2 7.43s, 42.3 MB/s 7.48s, 42.1 MB/s 7.43s, 42.4 MB/s\n3 7.38s, 42.6 MB/s 7.45s, 42.2 MB/s 7.41s, 42.5 MB/s\n\nSo the overhead of tracing is very small, and no regression when using\nthose trace events vs blktrace.\n\nAnd the binary output of TRACE_EVENT is much smaller than blktrace:\n\n # ls -l -h\n -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.8M 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.0\n -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 195K 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.1\n -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.7M 06-09 13:25 trace_splice.out\n\nFollowing are some comparisons between TRACE_EVENT and blktrace:\n\nplug:\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.084981: block_plug: [kjournald]\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.084981: 8,0 P N [kjournald]\n\nunplug_io:\n kblockd/0-118 [000] 300.052973: block_unplug_io: [kblockd/0] 1\n kblockd/0-118 [000] 300.052974: 8,0 U N [kblockd/0] 1\n\nremap:\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.085042: block_remap: 8,0 W 102736992 + 8 \u003c- (8,8) 33384\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.085043: 8,0 A W 102736992 + 8 \u003c- (8,8) 33384\n\nbio_backmerge:\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.085086: block_bio_backmerge: 8,0 W 102737032 + 8 [kjournald]\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.085086: 8,0 M W 102737032 + 8 [kjournald]\n\ngetrq:\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.084974: block_getrq: 8,0 W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald]\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.084975: 8,0 G W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald]\n\n bash-2066 [001] 1072.953770: 8,0 G N [bash]\n bash-2066 [001] 1072.953773: block_getrq: 0,0 N 0 + 0 [bash]\n\nrq_complete:\n konsole-2065 [001] 300.053184: block_rq_complete: 8,0 W () 103669040 + 16 [0]\n konsole-2065 [001] 300.053191: 8,0 C W 103669040 + 16 [0]\n\n ksoftirqd/1-7 [001] 1072.953811: 8,0 C N (5a 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 24 00) [0]\n ksoftirqd/1-7 [001] 1072.953813: block_rq_complete: 0,0 N (5a 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 24 00) 0 + 0 [0]\n\nrq_insert:\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.084985: block_rq_insert: 8,0 W 0 () 102736984 + 8 [kjournald]\n kjournald-480 [000] 303.084986: 8,0 I W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald]\n\nChangelog from v2 -\u003e v3:\n\n- use the newly introduced __dynamic_array().\n\nChangelog from v1 -\u003e v2:\n\n- use __string() instead of __array() to minimize the memory required\n to store hex dump of rq-\u003ecmd().\n\n- support large pc requests.\n\n- add missing blk_fill_rwbs_rq() in block_rq_requeue TRACE_EVENT.\n\n- some cleanups.\n\nSigned-off-by: Li Zefan \u003clizf@cn.fujitsu.com\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c4A2DF669.5070905@cn.fujitsu.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Steven Rostedt \u003crostedt@goodmis.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "53c663ce0f39ba8e8ef652e400b317bc60ac7f19", "tree": "5d72723bbc35e4b35734fe770b5022192c4f92c9", "parents": [ "c143dc903d7c0b15f5052e00b2c7de33a8b4299c" ], "author": { "name": "Kiyoshi Ueda", "email": "k-ueda@ct.jp.nec.com", "time": "Tue Jun 02 08:44:01 2009 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "jens.axboe@oracle.com", "time": "Tue Jun 02 08:44:01 2009 +0200" }, "message": "block: fix a possible oops on elv_abort_queue()\n\nI found one more mis-conversion to the \u0027request is always dequeued\nwhen completing\u0027 model in elv_abort_queue() during code inspection.\nAlthough I haven\u0027t hit any problem caused by this mis-conversion yet\nand just done compile/boot test, please apply if you have no problem.\n\nRequest must be dequeued when it completes.\nHowever, elv_abort_queue() completes requests without dequeueing.\nThis will cause oops in the __blk_end_request_all().\nThis patch fixes the oops.\n\nSigned-off-by: Kiyoshi Ueda \u003ck-ueda@ct.jp.nec.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jun\u0027ichi Nomura \u003cj-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003cjens.axboe@oracle.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "cd43e26f071524647e660706b784ebcbefbd2e44", "tree": "11625a25ba8a7c5cd4fe41b54d53506a7982433b", "parents": [ "025146e13b63483add912706c101fb0fb6f015cc" ], "author": { "name": "Martin K.
