14 years agoblock: add rq->resid_len
Tejun Heo [Thu, 7 May 2009 13:24:37 +0000 (22:24 +0900)]
block: add rq->resid_len

rq->data_len served two purposes - the length of data buffer on issue
and the residual count on completion.  This duality creates some
headaches.

First of all, block layer and low level drivers can't really determine
what rq->data_len contains while a request is executing.  It could be
the total request length or it coulde be anything else one of the
lower layers is using to keep track of residual count.  This
complicates things because blk_rq_bytes() and thus
[__]blk_end_request_all() relies on rq->data_len for PC commands.
Drivers which want to report residual count should first cache the
total request length, update rq->data_len and then complete the
request with the cached data length.

Secondly, it makes requests default to reporting full residual count,
ie. reporting that no data transfer occurred.  The residual count is
an exception not the norm; however, the driver should clear
rq->data_len to zero to signify the normal cases while leaving it
alone means no data transfer occurred at all.  This reverse default
behavior complicates code unnecessarily and renders block PC on some
drivers (ide-tape/floppy) unuseable.

This patch adds rq->resid_len which is used only for residual count.

While at it, remove now unnecessasry blk_rq_bytes() caching in
ide_pc_intr() as rq->data_len is not changed anymore.

Boaz : spotted missing conversion in osd
Sergei : spotted too early conversion to blk_rq_bytes() in ide-tape

[ Impact: cleanup residual count handling, report 0 resid by default ]

block: clean up request completion API

Request completion has gone through several changes and became a bit
messy over the time.  Clean it up.

1. end_that_request_data() is a thin wrapper around
   end_that_request_data_first() which checks whether bio is NULL
   before doing anything and handles bidi completion.
   blk_update_request() is a thin wrapper around
   end_that_request_data() which clears nr_sectors on the last
   iteration but doesn't use the bidi completion.

   Clean it up by moving the initial bio NULL check and nr_sectors
   clearing on the last iteration into end_that_request_data() and
   renaming it to blk_update_request(), which makes blk_end_io() the
   only user of end_that_request_data().  Collapse
   end_that_request_data() into blk_end_io().

2. There are four visible completion variants - blk_end_request(),
   __blk_end_request(), blk_end_bidi_request() and end_request().
   blk_end_request() and blk_end_bidi_request() uses blk_end_request()
   as the backend but __blk_end_request() and end_request() use
   separate implementation in __blk_end_request() due to different
   locking rules.

   blk_end_bidi_request() is identical to blk_end_io().  Collapse
   blk_end_io() into blk_end_bidi_request(), separate out request
   update into internal helper blk_update_bidi_request() and add
   __blk_end_bidi_request().  Redefine [__]blk_end_request() as thin
   inline wrappers around [__]blk_end_bidi_request().

3. As the whole request issue/completion usages are about to be
   modified and audited, it's a good chance to convert completion
   functions return bool which better indicates the intended meaning
   of return values.

4. The function name end_that_request_last() is from the days when it
   was a public interface and slighly confusing.  Give it a proper
   internal name - blk_finish_request().

5. Add description explaning that blk_end_bidi_request() can be safely
   used for uni requests as suggested by Boaz Harrosh.

The only visible behavior change is from #1.  nr_sectors counts are
cleared after the final iteration no matter which function is used to
complete the request.  I couldn't find any place where the code

idetape blocks which isn't necessary 512 bytes.  Also,
rq->current_nr_sectors is used to report back the residual count in

different paths and hooks to accomodate it and what a rq means becomes

ide-tape: use single continuous buffer

Impact: simpler buffer allocation and handling, kills OOM, fix DMA transfers

ide-tape has its own multiple buffer mechanism using struct
idetape_bh.  It allocates buffer with decreasing order-of-two
allocations so that it results in minimum number of segments.
However, the implementation is quite complex and works in a way that
no other block or ide driver works necessitating a lot of special case
handling.

The benefit this complex allocation scheme brings is questionable as
PIO or DMA the number of segments (16 maximum) doesn't make any
noticeable difference and it also doesn't negate the need for multiple
order allocation which can fail under memory pressure or high
fragmentation although it does lower the highest order necessary by
one when the buffer size isn't power of two.

As the first step to remove the custom buffer management, this patch
makes ide-tape allocate single continous buffer.  The maximum order is
four.  I doubt the change would cause any trouble but if it ever
matters, it should be converted to regular sg mechanism like everyone
else and even in that case dropping custom buffer handling and moving
to standard mechanism first make sense as an intermediate step.

This patch makes the first bh to contain the whole buffer and drops
multi bh handling code.  Following patches will make further changes.

This patch has the side effect of killing OOM triggered by allocation
path and fixing DMA transfers.  Previously, bug in alloc path
triggered OOM on command issue and commands were passed to DMA engine
without DMA-mapping all the segments.

block: clear req->errors on bio completion only for fs requests

Impact: subtle behavior change

For fs requests, rq is only carrier of bios and rq error status as a
whole doesn't mean much.  This is the reason why rq->errors is being
cleared on each partial completion of a request as on each partial
completion the error status is transferred to the respective bios.

For pc requests, rq->errors is used to carry error status to the
issuer and thus __end_that_request_first() doesn't clear it on such
cases.

The condition was fine till now as only fs and pc requests have used
bio and thus the bio completion path.  However, future changes will
unify data accesses to bio and all non fs users care about rq error
status.  Clear rq->errors on bio completion only for fs requests.

In general, the implicit clearing is a bit too subtle especially as
the meaning of rq->errors is completely dependent on low level
drivers.  Unifying / cleaning up rq->errors usage and letting llds
manage it would be better.  TODO comment added.
