[PATCH 0/9 v5] block: Fix IO priority mess

[Jan Kara]

Hello,

This is the fifth revision of my patches fixing IO priority handling in the
block layer. Damien has reviewed all the patches and tested them as well so
I think patches are ready to be merged.

Changes since v4:
* Added Reviewed-by and Tested-by tags
* Fixed prototype of stub function for !CONFIG_BLOCK

Changes since v3:
* Added Reviewed-by tags from Damien
* Fixed build failure without CONFIG_BLOCK
* Separated refactoring of get_current_ioprio() into a separate patch

Changes since v2:
* added some comments to better explain things
* changed handling of ioprio_get(2)
* a few small tweaks based on Damien's feedback

Original cover letter:
Recently, I've been looking into 10% regression reported by our performance
measurement infrastructure in reaim benchmark that was bisected down to
5a9d041ba2f6 ("block: move io_context creation into where it's needed"). This
didn't really make much sense and it took me a while to understand this but the
culprit is actually in even older commit e70344c05995 ("block: fix default IO
priority handling") and 5a9d041ba2f6 just made the breakage visible.
Essentially the problem was that after these commits some IO was queued with IO
priority class IOPRIO_CLASS_BE while other IO was queued with IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE
and as a result they could not be merged together resulting in performance
regression. I think what commit e70344c05995 ("block: fix default IO priority
handling") did is actually broken not only because of this performance
regression but because of other reasons as well (see changelog of patch 3/8 for
details). Besides this problem, there are multiple other inconsistencies in the
IO priority handling throughout the block stack we have identified when
discussing this with Damien Le Moal. So this patch set aims at fixing all these
various issues.

Note that there are a few choices I've made I'm not 100% sold on. In particular
the conversion of blk-ioprio from rqos is somewhat disputable since it now
incurs a cost similar to blk-throttle in the bio submission fast path (need to
load bio->bi_blkg->pd[ioprio_policy.plid]).  If people think the removed
boilerplate code is not worth the cost, I can certainly go via the "additional
rqos hook" path.

[PATCH 1/9] block: fix default IO priority handling again

[Jan Kara]

Commit e70344c05995 ("block: fix default IO priority handling")
introduced an inconsistency in get_current_ioprio() that tasks without
IO context return IOPRIO_DEFAULT priority while tasks with freshly
allocated IO context will return 0 (IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE/0) IO priority.
Tasks without IO context used to be rare before 5a9d041ba2f6 ("block:
move io_context creation into where it's needed") but after this commit
they became common because now only BFQ IO scheduler setups task's IO
context. Similar inconsistency is there for get_task_ioprio() so this
inconsistency is now exposed to userspace and userspace will see
different IO priority for tasks operating on devices with BFQ compared
to devices without BFQ. Furthemore the changes done by commit
e70344c05995 change the behavior when no IO priority is set for BFQ IO
scheduler which is also documented in ioprio_set(2) manpage:

"If no I/O scheduler has been set for a thread, then by default the I/O
priority will follow the CPU nice value (setpriority(2)).  In Linux
kernels before version 2.6.24, once an I/O priority had been set using
ioprio_set(), there was no way to reset the I/O scheduling behavior to
the default. Since Linux 2.6.24, specifying ioprio as 0 can be used to
reset to the default I/O scheduling behavior."

So make sure we default to IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE as used to be the case
before commit e70344c05995. Also cleanup alloc_io_context() to
explicitely set this IO priority for the allocated IO context to avoid
future surprises. Note that we tweak ioprio_best() to maintain
ioprio_get(2) behavior and make this commit easily backportable.

[PATCH 2/9] block: Return effective IO priority from get_current_ioprio()

[Jan Kara]

get_current_ioprio() is used to initialize IO priority of various
requests. As such it should be returning the effective IO priority of
the task (i.e., reflecting the fact that unset IO priority should get
set based on task's CPU priority) so that the conversion is concentrated
in one place.

[PATCH 3/9] block: Generalize get_current_ioprio() for any task

[Jan Kara]

get_current_ioprio() operates only on current task. We will need the
same functionality for other tasks as well. Generalize
get_current_ioprio() for that and also move the bulk out of the header
file because it is large enough.

We don't really need the general version exported.  But if you
prefer an inline wrapper over a tail call I guess this is fine, too:

[PATCH 5/9] block: Fix handling of tasks without ioprio in ioprio_get(2)

[Jan Kara]

ioprio_get(2) can be asked to return the best IO priority from several
tasks (IOPRIO_WHO_PGRP, IOPRIO_WHO_USER). Currently the call treats
tasks without set IO priority as having priority
IOPRIO_CLASS_BE/IOPRIO_BE_NORM however this does not really reflect the
IO priority the task will get (which depends on task's nice value).

Fix the code to use the real IO priority task's IO will use. We have to
modify code for ioprio_get(IOPRIO_WHO_PROCESS) to keep returning
IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE priority for tasks without set IO priority as a
special case to maintain userspace visible API.

[PATCH 7/9] blk-ioprio: Convert from rqos policy to direct call

[Jan Kara]

Convert blk-ioprio handling from a rqos policy to a direct call from
blk_mq_submit_bio(). Firstly, blk-ioprio is not much of a rqos policy
anyway, it just needs a hook in bio submission path to set the bio's IO
priority. Secondly, the rqos .track hook gets actually called too late
for blk-ioprio purposes and introducing a special rqos hook just for
blk-ioprio looks even weirder.

[PATCH 8/9] block: Initialize bio priority earlier

[Jan Kara]

Bio's IO priority needs to be initialized before we try to merge the bio
with other bios. Otherwise we could merge bios which would otherwise
receive different IO priorities leading to possible QoS issues.

[PATCH 9/9] block: Always initialize bio IO priority on submit

[Jan Kara]

Currently, IO priority set in task's IO context is not reflected in the
bio->bi_ioprio for most IO (only io_uring and direct IO set it). This
results in odd results where process is submitting some bios with one
priority and other bios with a different (unset) priority and due to
differing priorities bios cannot be merged. Make sure bio->bi_ioprio is
always set on bio submission.

[PATCH 0/9 v4] block: Fix IO priority mess

[Jan Kara]

Hello,

This is the fourth revision of my patches fixing IO priority handling in the
block layer.

Changes since v3:
* Added Reviewed-by tags from Damien
* Fixed build failure without CONFIG_BLOCK
* Separated refactoring of get_current_ioprio() into a separate patch

Changes since v2:
* added some comments to better explain things
* changed handling of ioprio_get(2)
* a few small tweaks based on Damien's feedback

Original cover letter:
Recently, I've been looking into 10% regression reported by our performance
measurement infrastructure in reaim benchmark that was bisected down to
5a9d041ba2f6 ("block: move io_context creation into where it's needed"). This
didn't really make much sense and it took me a while to understand this but the
culprit is actually in even older commit e70344c05995 ("block: fix default IO
priority handling") and 5a9d041ba2f6 just made the breakage visible.
Essentially the problem was that after these commits some IO was queued with IO
priority class IOPRIO_CLASS_BE while other IO was queued with IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE
and as a result they could not be merged together resulting in performance
regression. I think what commit e70344c05995 ("block: fix default IO priority
handling") did is actually broken not only because of this performance
regression but because of other reasons as well (see changelog of patch 3/8 for
details). Besides this problem, there are multiple other inconsistencies in the
IO priority handling throughout the block stack we have identified when
discussing this with Damien Le Moal. So this patch set aims at fixing all these
various issues.

Note that there are a few choices I've made I'm not 100% sold on. In particular
the conversion of blk-ioprio from rqos is somewhat disputable since it now
incurs a cost similar to blk-throttle in the bio submission fast path (need to
load bio->bi_blkg->pd[ioprio_policy.plid]).  If people think the removed
boilerplate code is not worth the cost, I can certainly go via the "additional
rqos hook" path.

[PATCH 3/9] block: Generalize get_current_ioprio() for any task

[Jan Kara]

get_current_ioprio() operates only on current task. We will need the
same functionality for other tasks as well. Generalize
get_current_ioprio() for that and also move the bulk out of the header
file because it is large enough.

Bah, I've messed up the prototype of the stub function for !CONFIG_BLOCK.
