Jens Axboe d7cf931dd9 Revert "blk-flush: Queue through IO scheduler when flush not required"
This reverts commit 1b2ff19e6a.

Jan writes:

Thanks for report! After some investigation I found out we allocate
elevator specific data in __get_request() only for non-flush requests. And
this is actually required since the flush machinery uses the space in
struct request for something else. Doh. So my patch is just wrong and not
easy to fix since at the time __get_request() is called we are not sure
whether the flush machinery will be used in the end. Jens, please revert
1b2ff19e6a. Thanks!

I'm somewhat surprised that you can reliably hit the race where flushing
gets disabled for the device just while the request is in flight. But I
guess during boot it makes some sense.

--

So let's just revert it, we can fix the queue run manually after the
fact. This race is rare enough that it didn't trigger in testing, it
requires the specific disable-while-in-flight scenario to trigger.

/*
* Functions to sequence FLUSH and FUA writes.
*
* Copyright (C) 2011 Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics
* Copyright (C) 2011 Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
*
* This file is released under the GPLv2.
*
* REQ_{FLUSH|FUA} requests are decomposed to sequences consisted of three
* optional steps - PREFLUSH, DATA and POSTFLUSH - according to the request
* properties and hardware capability.
*
* If a request doesn't have data, only REQ_FLUSH makes sense, which
* indicates a simple flush request. If there is data, REQ_FLUSH indicates
* that the device cache should be flushed before the data is executed, and
* REQ_FUA means that the data must be on non-volatile media on request
* completion.
*
* If the device doesn't have writeback cache, FLUSH and FUA don't make any
* difference. The requests are either completed immediately if there's no
* data or executed as normal requests otherwise.
*
* If the device has writeback cache and supports FUA, REQ_FLUSH is
* translated to PREFLUSH but REQ_FUA is passed down directly with DATA.
*
* If the device has writeback cache and doesn't support FUA, REQ_FLUSH is
* translated to PREFLUSH and REQ_FUA to POSTFLUSH.
*
* The actual execution of flush is double buffered. Whenever a request
* needs to execute PRE or POSTFLUSH, it queues at
* fq->flush_queue[fq->flush_pending_idx]. Once certain criteria are met, a
* flush is issued and the pending_idx is toggled. When the flush
* completes, all the requests which were pending are proceeded to the next
* step. This allows arbitrary merging of different types of FLUSH/FUA
* requests.
*
* Currently, the following conditions are used to determine when to issue
* flush.
*
* C1. At any given time, only one flush shall be in progress. This makes
* double buffering sufficient.
*
* C2. Flush is deferred if any request is executing DATA of its sequence.
* This avoids issuing separate POSTFLUSHes for requests which shared
* PREFLUSH.
*
* C3. The second condition is ignored if there is a request which has
* waited longer than FLUSH_PENDING_TIMEOUT. This is to avoid
* starvation in the unlikely case where there are continuous stream of
* FUA (without FLUSH) requests.
*
* For devices which support FUA, it isn't clear whether C2 (and thus C3)
* is beneficial.
*
* Note that a sequenced FLUSH/FUA request with DATA is completed twice.
* Once while executing DATA and again after the whole sequence is
* complete. The first completion updates the contained bio but doesn't
* finish it so that the bio submitter is notified only after the whole
* sequence is complete. This is implemented by testing REQ_FLUSH_SEQ in
* req_bio_endio().
*
* The above peculiarity requires that each FLUSH/FUA request has only one
* bio attached to it, which is guaranteed as they aren't allowed to be
* merged in the usual way.
