"This is the main pull request for block/storage for 4.21.Larger than usual, it was a busy round with lots of goodies queued up.
Most notable is the removal of the old IO stack, which has been a long
time coming. No new features for a while, everything coming in this
week has all been fixes for things that were previously merged.This contains:
- Use atomic counters instead of semaphores for mtip32xx (Arnd)
- Cleanup of the mtip32xx request setup (Christoph)
- Fix for circular locking dependency in loop (Jan, Tetsuo)
- bcache (Coly, Guoju, Shenghui)
* Optimizations for writeback caching
* Various fixes and improvements- nvme (Chaitanya, Christoph, Sagi, Jay, me, Keith)
* host and target support for NVMe over TCP
* Error log page support
* Support for separate read/write/poll queues
* Much improved polling
* discard OOM fallback
* Tracepoint improvements- lightnvm (Hans, Hua, Igor, Matias, Javier)
* Igor added packed metadata to pblk. Now drives without metadata
per LBA can be used as well.
* Fix from Geert on uninitialized value on chunk metadata reads.
* Fixes from Hans and Javier to pblk recovery and write path.
* Fix from Hua Su to fix a race condition in the pblk recovery
code.
* Scan optimization added to pblk recovery from Zhoujie.
* Small geometry cleanup from me.- Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
blk-mq (me)- Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)
- Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)
- Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
coming in the next release.- Killing of (now) unused block exports (Christoph)
- Unification of the blk-rq-qos and blk-wbt wait handling (Josef)
- Support for zoned testing with null_blk (Masato)

gives us a baseline version for glibc to start using them.This does not include the clock_adjtime, getrusage/waitid, and
getitimer/setitimer system calls. I still plan to have new versions of
those as well, but they are not required for correct operation of the
C library since they can be emulated using the old 32-bit time_t based
system calls.Aside from the system calls, there are also a few cleanups here,

struct timespec is not y2038 safe.
struct __kernel_timespec is the new y2038 safe structure for all
syscalls that are using struct timespec.
Update io_pgetevents interfaces to use struct __kernel_timespec.sigset_t also has different representations on 32 bit and 64 bit
architectures. Hence, we need to support the following different
syscalls:New y2038 safe syscalls:
(Controlled by CONFIG_64BIT_TIME for 32 bit ABIs)Native 64 bit(unchanged) and native 32 bit : sys_io_pgetevents
Compat : compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64Older y2038 unsafe syscalls:
(Controlled by CONFIG_32BIT_COMPAT_TIME for 32 bit ABIs)Native 32 bit : sys_io_pgetevents_time32

Refactor the logic to restore the sigmask before the syscall
returns into an api.
This is useful for versions of syscalls that pass in the
sigmask and expect the current->sigmask to be changed during
the execution and restored after the execution of the syscall.With the advent of new y2038 syscalls in the subsequent patches,
we add two more new versions of the syscalls (for pselect, ppoll
and io_pgetevents) in addition to the existing native and compat
versions. Adding such an api reduces the logic that would need to
be replicated otherwise.Signed-off-by: Deepa Dinamani

Christoph Hellwig suggested a slightly different path for handling
backwards compatibility with the 32-bit time_t based system calls:Rather than simply reusing the compat_sys_* entry points on 32-bit
architectures unchanged, we get rid of those entry points and the
compat_time types by renaming them to something that makes more sense
on 32-bit architectures (which don't have a compat mode otherwise),
and then share the entry points under the new name with the 64-bit
architectures that use them for implementing the compatibility.The following types and interfaces are renamed here, and moved
from linux/compat_time.h to linux/time32.h:old new
--- ---
compat_time_t old_time32_t
struct compat_timeval struct old_timeval32
struct compat_timespec struct old_timespec32
struct compat_itimerspec struct old_itimerspec32
ns_to_compat_timeval() ns_to_old_timeval32()
get_compat_itimerspec64() get_old_itimerspec32()
put_compat_itimerspec64() put_old_itimerspec32()
compat_get_timespec64() get_old_timespec32()
compat_put_timespec64() put_old_timespec32()As we already have aliases in place, this patch addresses only the
instances that are relevant to the system call interface in particular,
not those that occur in device drivers and other modules. Those
will get handled separately, while providing the 64-bit version
of the respective interfaces.I'm not renaming the timex, rusage and itimerval structures, as we are
still debating what the new interface will look like, and whether we
will need a replacement at all.This also doesn't change the names of the syscall entry points, which can
be done more easily when we actually switch over the 32-bit architectures
to use them, at that point we need to change COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx to
SYSCALL_DEFINEx with a new name, e.g. with a _time32 suffix.Suggested-by: Christoph Hellwig

Simple one-shot poll through the io_submit() interface. To poll for
a file descriptor the application should submit an iocb of type
IOCB_CMD_POLL. It will poll the fd for the events specified in the
the first 32 bits of the aio_buf field of the iocb.Unlike poll or epoll without EPOLLONESHOT this interface always works
in one shot mode, that is once the iocb is completed, it will have to be

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections.But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy - Linus ]Cc: Al Viro
