Only blk-mq completions have payload attached to the request, for
request_fn mode we have stored it in req->special. This fixes an
oops with queue_mode=1 and softirq completions.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

Drivers currently have to figure this out on their own, and they
are missing information to do it properly. The ones that did
attempt to do it, do it wrong.So just pass in the suggested node directly to the alloc

Drivers can reach their private data easily using the blk_mq_rq_to_pdu
helper and don't need req->special. By not initializing it code can
be simplified nicely, and we also shave off a few more instructions from
the I/O path.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

The completion queue is implemented using lockless list.
The llist_add is adds the events to the list head which is a push operation.
The processing of the completion elements is done by disconnecting all the
pushed elements and iterating over the disconnected list. The problem is
that the processing is done in reverse order w.r.t order of the insertion
i.e. LIFO processing. By reversing the disconnected list which is done in
linear time the desired FIFO processing is achieved.Signed-off-by: Shlomo Pongratz

When queue_mode is NULL_Q_MQ and null_blk is being removed,
blk_cleanup_queue() isn't called to cleanup queue, so the queue
allocated won't be freed.This patch calls blk_cleanup_queue() for MQ to drain all pending
requests first and release the reference counter of queue kobject, then
blk_mq_free_queue() will be called in queue kobject's release handler
when queue kobject's reference counter drops to zero.Signed-off-by: Ming Lei

In the case of both the submit_queues param and use_per_node_hctx param
are used. We limit the number af submit_queues to the number of online
nodes.If the submit_queues is a multiple of nr_online_nodes, its trivial. Simply map
them to the nodes. For example: 8 submit queues are mapped as node0[0,1],
node1[2,3], ...
If uneven, we are left with an uneven number of submit_queues that must be
mapped. These are mapped toward the first node and onward. E.g. 5
submit queues mapped onto 4 nodes are mapped as node0[0,1], node1[2], ...Signed-off-by: Matias Bjorling

Simplify the initialization logic of the three block-layers.
- The queue initialization is split into two parts. This allows reuse of
code when initializing the sq-, bio- and mq-based layers.
- Set submit_queues default value to 0 and always set it at init time.
- Simplify the init error code paths.Signed-off-by: Matias Bjorling

For NUMA systems, initializing the blk-mq layer and using per node hctx.
We initialize submit queues to 1, while blk-mq nr_hw_queues is
initialized to the number of NUMA nodes.This makes the null_init_hctx function overwrite memory outside of what
it allocated. In my case it lead to writing garbage into struct
request_queue's mq_map.Signed-off-by: Matias Bjorling
