Add two new helpers to simplify I/O accounting for bio based drivers.
Currently these drivers use the generic_start_io_acct and
generic_end_io_acct helpers which have very cumbersome calling
conventions, don't actually return the time they started accounting,
and try to deal with accounting for partitions, which can't happen
for bio based drivers. The new helpers will be used to subsequently
replace uses of the old helpers.
The main API is the bio based wrappes in blkdev.h, but for zram
which wants to account rw_page based I/O lower level routines are
provided as well.

blk_mq_make_request currently needs to grab an q_usage_counter
reference when allocating a request. This is because the block layer
grabs one before calling blk_mq_make_request, but also releases it as
soon as blk_mq_make_request returns. Remove the blk_queue_exit call
after blk_mq_make_request returns, and instead let it consume the
reference. This works perfectly fine for the block layer caller, just
device mapper needs an extra reference as the old problem still
persists there. Open code blk_queue_enter_live in device mapper,
as there should be no other callers and this allows better documenting

Blk-crypto delegates crypto operations to inline encryption hardware
when available. The separately configurable blk-crypto-fallback contains
a software fallback to the kernel crypto API - when enabled, blk-crypto
will use this fallback for en/decryption when inline encryption hardware
is not available.
This lets upper layers not have to worry about whether or not the
underlying device has support for inline encryption before deciding to
specify an encryption context for a bio. It also allows for testing
without actual inline encryption hardware - in particular, it makes it
possible to test the inline encryption code in ext4 and f2fs simply by
running xfstests with the inlinecrypt mount option, which in turn allows
for things like the regular upstream regression testing of ext4 to cover
the inline encryption code paths.

Whenever a device supports blk-integrity, make the kernel pretend that
the device doesn't support inline encryption (essentially by setting the
keyslot manager in the request queue to NULL).
There's no hardware currently that supports both integrity and inline
encryption. However, it seems possible that there will be such hardware
in the near future (like the NVMe key per I/O support that might support
both inline encryption and PI).
But properly integrating both features is not trivial, and without
real hardware that implements both, it is difficult to tell if it will
be done correctly by the majority of hardware that support both.
So it seems best not to support both features together right now, and
to decide what to do at probe time.

We must have some way of letting a storage device driver know what
encryption context it should use for en/decrypting a request. However,
it's the upper layers (like the filesystem/fscrypt) that know about and
manages encryption contexts. As such, when the upper layer submits a bio
to the block layer, and this bio eventually reaches a device driver with
support for inline encryption, the device driver will need to have been
told the encryption context for that bio.
We want to communicate the encryption context from the upper layer to the
storage device along with the bio, when the bio is submitted to the block
layer. To do this, we add a struct bio_crypt_ctx to struct bio, which can
represent an encryption context (note that we can't use the bi_private
field in struct bio to do this because that field does not function to pass
information across layers in the storage stack). We also introduce various
functions to manipulate the bio_crypt_ctx and make the bio/request merging
logic aware of the bio_crypt_ctx.
We also make changes to blk-mq to make it handle bios with encryption
contexts. blk-mq can merge many bios into the same request. These bios need
to have contiguous data unit numbers (the necessary changes to blk-merge
are also made to ensure this) - as such, it suffices to keep the data unit
number of just the first bio, since that's all a storage driver needs to
infer the data unit number to use for each data block in each bio in a
request. blk-mq keeps track of the encryption context to be used for all
the bios in a request with the request's rq_crypt_ctx. When the first bio
is added to an empty request, blk-mq will program the encryption context
of that bio into the request_queue's keyslot manager, and store the
returned keyslot in the request's rq_crypt_ctx. All the functions to
operate on encryption contexts are in blk-crypto.c.
Upper layers only need to call bio_crypt_set_ctx with the encryption key,
algorithm and data_unit_num; they don't have to worry about getting a
keyslot for each encryption context, as blk-mq/blk-crypto handles that.
Blk-crypto also makes it possible for request-based layered devices like
dm-rq to make use of inline encryption hardware by cloning the
rq_crypt_ctx and programming a keyslot in the new request_queue when
necessary.
Note that any user of the block layer can submit bios with an
encryption context, such as filesystems, device-mapper targets, etc.

Inline Encryption hardware allows software to specify an encryption context
(an encryption key, crypto algorithm, data unit num, data unit size) along
with a data transfer request to a storage device, and the inline encryption
hardware will use that context to en/decrypt the data. The inline
encryption hardware is part of the storage device, and it conceptually sits
on the data path between system memory and the storage device.
Inline Encryption hardware implementations often function around the
concept of "keyslots". These implementations often have a limited number
of "keyslots", each of which can hold a key (we say that a key can be
"programmed" into a keyslot). Requests made to the storage device may have
a keyslot and a data unit number associated with them, and the inline
encryption hardware will en/decrypt the data in the requests using the key
programmed into that associated keyslot and the data unit number specified
with the request.
As keyslots are limited, and programming keys may be expensive in many
implementations, and multiple requests may use exactly the same encryption
contexts, we introduce a Keyslot Manager to efficiently manage keyslots.
We also introduce a blk_crypto_key, which will represent the key that's
programmed into keyslots managed by keyslot managers. The keyslot manager
also functions as the interface that upper layers will use to program keys
into inline encryption hardware. For more information on the Keyslot
Manager, refer to documentation found in block/keyslot-manager.c and
linux/keyslot-manager.h.

When the QoS targets are met and nothing is being throttled, there's
no way to tell how saturated the underlying device is - it could be
almost entirely idle, at the cusp of saturation or anywhere inbetween.
Given that there's no information, it's best to keep vrate as-is in
this state. Before 7cd806a9a9 ("iocost: improve nr_lagging
handling"), this was the case - if the device isn't missing QoS
targets and nothing is being throttled, busy_level was reset to zero.
While fixing nr_lagging handling, 7cd806a9a9 ("iocost: improve
nr_lagging handling") broke this. Now, while the device is hitting
QoS targets and nothing is being throttled, vrate keeps getting
adjusted according to the existing busy_level.
This led to vrate keeping climing till it hits max when there's an IO
issuer with limited request concurrency if the vrate started low.
vrate starts getting adjusted upwards until the issuer can issue IOs
w/o being throttled. From then on, QoS targets keeps getting met and
nothing on the system needs throttling and vrate keeps getting
increased due to the existing busy_level.
This patch makes the following changes to the busy_level logic.
* Reset busy_level if nr_shortages is zero to avoid the above
scenario.
* Make non-zero nr_lagging block lowering nr_level but still clear
positive busy_level if there's clear non-saturation signal - QoS
targets are met and nr_shortages is non-zero. nr_lagging's role is
preventing adjusting vrate upwards while there are long-running
commands and it shouldn't keep busy_level positive while there's
clear non-saturation signal.
* Restructure code for clarity and add comments.

Define REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND to append-write sectors to a zone of a zoned
block device. This is a no-merge write operation.
A zone append write BIO must:
* Target a zoned block device
* Have a sector position indicating the start sector of the target zone
* The target zone must be a sequential write zone
* The BIO must not cross a zone boundary
* The BIO size must not be split to ensure that a single range of LBAs
is written with a single command.
Implement these checks in generic_make_request_checks() using the
helper function blk_check_zone_append(). To avoid write append BIO
splitting, introduce the new max_zone_append_sectors queue limit
attribute and ensure that a BIO size is always lower than this limit.
Export this new limit through sysfs and check these limits in bio_full().
Also when a LLDD can't dispatch a request to a specific zone, it
will return BLK_STS_ZONE_RESOURCE indicating this request needs to
be delayed, e.g. because the zone it will be dispatched to is still
write-locked. If this happens set the request aside in a local list
to continue trying dispatching requests such as READ requests or a
WRITE/ZONE_APPEND requests targetting other zones. This way we can
still keep a high queue depth without starving other requests even if
one request can't be served due to zone write-locking.
Finally, make sure that the bio sector position indicates the actual
write position as indicated by the device on completion.

delete_partition() clears the cached last_lookup partition. However the
.last_lookup cache may be overwritten by one IO path after it is cleared
from delete_partition(). Then another IO path may use the cached deleting
partition after hd_struct_free() is called, then use-after-free is triggered
on the cached partition.
Fixes the issue by the following approach:
1) always get the partition's refcount via hd_struct_try_get() before
setting .last_lookup
2) move clearing .last_lookup from delete_partition() to hd_struct_free()
which is the release handle of the partition's percpu-refcount, so that no
IO path can cache deleteing partition via .last_lookup.
It is one candidate approach of Yufen's patch[1] which adds overhead
in fast path by indirect lookup which may introduce one extra cacheline
in IO path. Also this patch relies on percpu-refcount's protection, and
it is easier to understand and verify.

abs_vdebt is an atomic_64 which tracks how much over budget a given cgroup
is and controls the activation of use_delay mechanism. Once a cgroup goes
over budget from forced IOs, it has to pay it back with its future budget.
The progress guarantee on debt paying comes from the iocg being active -
active iocgs are processed by the periodic timer, which ensures that as time
passes the debts dissipate and the iocg returns to normal operation.
However, both iocg activation and vdebt handling are asynchronous and a
sequence like the following may happen.
1. The iocg is in the process of being deactivated by the periodic timer.
2. A bio enters ioc_rqos_throttle(), calls iocg_activate() which returns
without anything because it still sees that the iocg is already active.
3. The iocg is deactivated.
4. The bio from #2 is over budget but needs to be forced. It increases
abs_vdebt and goes over the threshold and enables use_delay.
5. IO control is enabled for the iocg's subtree and now IOs are attributed
to the descendant cgroups and the iocg itself no longer issues IOs.
This leaves the iocg with stuck abs_vdebt - it has debt but inactive and no
further IOs which can activate it. This can end up unduly punishing all the
descendants cgroups.
The usual throttling path has the same issue - the iocg must be active while
throttled to ensure that future event will wake it up - and solves the
problem by synchronizing the throttling path with a spinlock. abs_vdebt
handling is another form of overage handling and shares a lot of
characteristics including the fact that it isn't in the hottest path.
This patch fixes the above and other possible races by strictly
synchronizing abs_vdebt and use_delay handling with iocg->waitq.lock.

On each IO completion, iocost decides whether the IO met or missed its latency
target. Currently, the targets are fixed numbers per IO type. While this can be
good enough for loose latency targets way higher than typical completion
latencies, the effect of IO size makes it difficult to tighten the latency
target - a target adequate for 4k IOs might be too tight for 512k IOs and
vice-versa.
iocost already has all the necessary information to account for different IO
sizes when testing whether the latency target is met as iocost can calculate the
size vtime cost of a given IO. This patch updates the completion path to
calculate the size vtime cost of the IO, deduct the nsec equivalent from the
observed latency and use the adjusted value to decide whether the target is met.
This makes latency targets independent from IO size and enables determining
adequate latency targets with fixed size fio runs.

allocators accountable for the reclaim and other shared IOs they cause. The
duration of the delay is dynamically balanced between iolatency increasing the
value on each target miss and it auto-decaying as time passes and threads get
delayed on it.
While this works well for iolatency, iocost's control model isn't compatible
with it. There is no repeated "violation" events which can be balanced against
auto-decaying. iocost instead knows how much a given cgroup is over budget and
wants to prevent that cgroup from issuing IOs while over budget. Until now,
iocost has been adding the cost of force-issued IOs. However, this doesn't
reflect the amount which is already over budget and is simply not enough to
counter the auto-decaying allowing anon-memory leaking low priority cgroup to
go over its alloted share of IOs.
As auto-decaying doesn't make much sense for iocost, this patch introduces a
different mode of operation for use_delay - when blkcg_set_delay() are used
insted of blkcg_add/use_delay(), the delay duration is not auto-decayed until it
is explicitly cleared with blkcg_clear_delay(). iocost is updated to keep the
delay duration synchronized to the budget overage amount.
With this change, iocost can effectively police cgroups which generate
significant amount of force-issued IOs.

When replacing the bd_super check with a bd_openers I followed a logical
conclusion, which turns out to be utterly wrong. When a block device has
bd_super sets it has a mount file system on it (although not every
mounted file system sets bd_super), but that also implies it doesn't even
have partitions to start with.
So instead of trying to come up with a logical check for all openers,
just remove the check entirely.

Add a little helper that passes the right nowait flag to blk_queue_enter
based on the bio flag, and terminates the bio with the right error code
if entering the queue fails.

BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED is only used for cgroup accounting now, so rename
the flag and move setting it into the cgroup code.

Instead of a convoluted chain just check for REQ_OP_READ directly,
and keep all the memory stall code together in a single unlikely

The current documentation is a little weird, as it doesn't clearly
explain which function to use, and also has the guts of the information
on generic_make_request, which is the internal interface for stacking
drivers.
Fix this up by properly documenting submit_bio, and only documenting
the differences and the use case for generic_make_request.

Call blk_mq_make_request when no ->make_request_fn is set. This is
safe now that blk_alloc_queue always sets up the pointer for make_request
based drivers. This avoids an indirect call in the blk-mq driver I/O
fast path, which is rather expensive due to spectre mitigations.

create_io_context just has a single caller, which also happens to not
