Commit Message

Add atomic write support, as follows:
- add helper functions to get request_queue atomic write limits
- report request_queue atomic write support limits to sysfs and update Doc
- support to safely merge atomic writes
- deal with splitting atomic writes
- misc helper functions
- add a per-request atomic write flag

New request_queue limits are added, as follows:
- atomic_write_hw_max is set by the block driver and is the maximum length
  of an atomic write which the device may support. It is not
  necessarily a power-of-2.
- atomic_write_max_sectors is derived from atomic_write_hw_max_sectors and
  max_hw_sectors. It is always a power-of-2. Atomic writes may be merged,
  and atomic_write_max_sectors would be the limit on a merged atomic write
  request size. This value is not capped at max_sectors, as the value in
  max_sectors can be controlled from userspace, and it would only cause
  trouble if userspace could limit atomic_write_unit_max_bytes and the
  other atomic write limits.
- atomic_write_hw_unit_{min,max} are set by the block driver and are the
  min/max length of an atomic write unit which the device may support. They
  both must be a power-of-2. Typically atomic_write_hw_unit_max will hold
  the same value as atomic_write_hw_max.
- atomic_write_unit_{min,max} are derived from
  atomic_write_hw_unit_{min,max}, max_hw_sectors, and block core limits.
  Both min and max values must be a power-of-2.
- atomic_write_hw_boundary is set by the block driver. If non-zero, it
  indicates an LBA space boundary at which an atomic write straddles no
  longer is atomically executed by the disk. The value must be a
  power-of-2. Note that it would be acceptable to enforce a rule that
  atomic_write_hw_boundary_sectors is a multiple of
  atomic_write_hw_unit_max, but the resultant code would be more
  complicated.

All atomic writes limits are by default set 0 to indicate no atomic write
support. Even though it is assumed by Linux that a logical block can always
be atomically written, we ignore this as it is not of particular interest.
Stacked devices are just not supported either for now.

An atomic write must always be submitted to the block driver as part of a
single request. As such, only a single BIO must be submitted to the block
layer for an atomic write. When a single atomic write BIO is submitted, it
cannot be split. As such, atomic_write_unit_{max, min}_bytes are limited
by the maximum guaranteed BIO size which will not be required to be split.
This max size is calculated by request_queue max segments and the number
of bvecs a BIO can fit, BIO_MAX_VECS. Currently we rely on userspace
issuing a write with iovcnt=1 for pwritev2() - as such, we can rely on each
segment containing PAGE_SIZE of data, apart from the first+last, which each
can fit logical block size of data. The first+last will be LBS
length/aligned as we rely on direct IO alignment rules also.

New sysfs files are added to report the following atomic write limits:
- atomic_write_unit_max_bytes - same as atomic_write_unit_max_sectors in
				bytes
- atomic_write_unit_min_bytes - same as atomic_write_unit_min_sectors in
				bytes
- atomic_write_boundary_bytes - same as atomic_write_hw_boundary_sectors in
				bytes
- atomic_write_max_bytes      - same as atomic_write_max_sectors in bytes

Atomic writes may only be merged with other atomic writes and only under
the following conditions:
- total resultant request length <= atomic_write_max_bytes
- the merged write does not straddle a boundary

Helper function bdev_can_atomic_write() is added to indicate whether
atomic writes may be issued to a bdev. If a bdev is a partition, the
partition start must be aligned with both atomic_write_unit_min_sectors
and atomic_write_hw_boundary_sectors.

FSes will rely on the block layer to validate that an atomic write BIO
submitted will be of valid size, so add blk_validate_atomic_write_op_size()
for this purpose. Userspace expects an atomic write which is of invalid
size to be rejected with -EINVAL, so add BLK_STS_INVAL for this. Also use
BLK_STS_INVAL for when a BIO needs to be split, as this should mean an
invalid size BIO.

Flag REQ_ATOMIC is used for indicating an atomic write.

So you are saying that we can re-use blk_chunk_sectors_left() to 
determine whether merging a bio/req would cross the boundary, right?

It seems ok in principle - we would just need to ensure that it is 
watertight.

Yeah, right. But we can only handle what HW tells.

The atomic write boundary is only relevant to NVMe. NVMe NOIOB - which 
we use to set chunk_sectors - is an IO optimization hint, AFAIK. However 
the atomic write boundary is a hard limit. So if NOIOB is not aligned 
with the atomic write boundary - which seems unlikely - then the atomic 
write boundary takes priority.

Thanks,
John

Yeah, maybe we can reject that in blk_validate_limits(), by error'ing or 
disabling atomic writes there.

I think that some of the logic could be re-used. 
rq_straddles_atomic_write_boundary() is checked in merging of reqs/bios 
(to see if the resultant req straddles a boundary).

So instead of saying: "will the resultant req straddle a boundary", 
re-using path like blk_rq_get_max_sectors() -> blk_chunk_sectors_left(), 
we check "is there space within the boundary limit to add this req/bio". 
We need to take care of front and back merges, though.

Thanks,
John

Yes, we've used the trick to pass in the relevant limit in explicitly
to reuse infrastructure in other places, e.g. max_hw_sectors vs
max_zone_append_sectors for adding to a bio while respecting hardware
limits.

Or rather how that is passed to bio_add_hw_page, yes.

Looks reasonable.  Note that the comment above blk_boundary_sectors_left
could use a line break.
