Pull vfs 'protection info' updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the new FS_IOC_GETLBMD_CAP ioctl() to query metadata and
protection info (PI) capabilities. This ioctl returns information
about the files integrity profile. This is useful for userspace
applications to understand a files end-to-end data protection support
and configure the I/O accordingly.
For now this interface is only supported by block devices. However the
design and placement of this ioctl in generic FS ioctl space allows us
to extend it to work over files as well. This maybe useful when
filesystems start supporting PI-aware layouts.
A new structure struct logical_block_metadata_cap is introduced, which
contains the following fields:
- lbmd_flags:
bitmask of logical block metadata capability flags
- lbmd_interval:
the amount of data described by each unit of logical block metadata
- lbmd_size:
size in bytes of the logical block metadata associated with each
interval
- lbmd_opaque_size:
size in bytes of the opaque block tag associated with each interval
- lbmd_opaque_offset:
offset in bytes of the opaque block tag within the logical block
metadata
- lbmd_pi_size:
size in bytes of the T10 PI tuple associated with each interval
- lbmd_pi_offset:
offset in bytes of T10 PI tuple within the logical block metadata
- lbmd_pi_guard_tag_type:
T10 PI guard tag type
- lbmd_pi_app_tag_size:

- lbmd_pi_ref_tag_size:
size in bytes of the T10 PI reference tag
- lbmd_pi_storage_tag_size:
size in bytes of the T10 PI storage tag
The internal logic to fetch the capability is encapsulated in a helper
function blk_get_meta_cap(), which uses the blk_integrity profile
associated with the device. The ioctl returns -EOPNOTSUPP, if
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY is not enabled"

Pull fallocate updates from Christian Brauner:
"fallocate() currently supports creating preallocated files
efficiently. However, on most filesystems fallocate() will preallocate
blocks in an unwriten state even if FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is specified.
The extent state must later be converted to a written state when the
user writes data into this range, which can trigger numerous metadata
changes and journal I/O. This may leads to significant write
amplification and performance degradation in synchronous write mode.
At the moment, the only method to avoid this is to create an empty
file and write zero data into it (for example, using 'dd' with a large
block size). However, this method is slow and consumes a considerable
amount of disk bandwidth.
Now that more and more flash-based storage devices are available it is
possible to efficiently write zeros to SSDs using the unmap write
zeroes command if the devices do not write physical zeroes to the
media.
For example, if SCSI SSDs support the UMMAP bit or NVMe SSDs support
the DEAC bit[1], the write zeroes command does not write actual data
to the device, instead, NVMe converts the zeroed range to a
deallocated state, which works fast and consumes almost no disk write
bandwidth.
This series implements the BLK_FEAT_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP feature and
BLK_FLAG_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP_DISABLED flag for SCSI, NVMe and
device-mapper drivers, and add the FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES and
STATX_ATTR_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP support for ext4 and raw bdev devices.
fallocate() is subsequently extended with the FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES
flag. FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES zeroes a specified file range in such a
way that subsequent writes to that range do not require further
changes to the file mapping metadata. This flag is beneficial for
subsequent pure overwriting within this range, as it can save on block
allocation and, consequently, significant metadata changes"

In preparation for fixing device mapper zone write handling, introduce
the inline helper function bio_needs_zone_write_plugging() to test if a
BIO requires handling through zone write plugging using the function
blk_zone_plug_bio(). This function returns true for any write
(op_is_write(bio) == true) operation directed at a zoned block device
using zone write plugging, that is, a block device with a disk that has
a zone write plug hash table.
This helper allows simplifying the check on entry to blk_zone_plug_bio()
and used in to protect calls to it for blk-mq devices and DM devices.

Back in 2015, commit d2be537c3b ("block: bump BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS to
2560") increased the default maximum size of a block device I/O to 2560
sectors (1280 KiB) to "accommodate a 10-data-disk stripe write with
chunk size 128k". This choice is rather arbitrary and since then,
improvements to the block layer have software RAID drivers correctly
advertize their stripe width through chunk_sectors and abuses of
BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS_CAP by drivers (to set the HW limit rather than the
default user controlled maximum I/O size) have been fixed.
Since many block devices can benefit from a larger value of
BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS_CAP, and in particular HDDs, increase this value to
be 4MiB, or 8192 sectors.
And given that BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS_CAP is only used in the block layer
and should not be used by drivers directly, move this macro definition
to the block layer internal header file block/blk.h.

Currently, disks primarily implement the write zeroes command (aka
REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES) through two mechanisms: the first involves
physically writing zeros to the disk media (e.g., HDDs), while the
second performs an unmap operation on the logical blocks, effectively
putting them into a deallocated state (e.g., SSDs). The first method is
generally slow, while the second method is typically very fast.
For example, on certain NVMe SSDs that support NVME_NS_DEAC, submitting
REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES requests with the NVME_WZ_DEAC bit can accelerate
the write zeros operation by placing disk blocks into a deallocated
state, which opportunistically avoids writing zeroes to media while
still guaranteeing that subsequent reads from the specified block range
will return zeroed data. This is a best-effort optimization, not a
mandatory requirement, some devices may partially fall back to writing
physical zeroes due to factors such as misalignment or being asked to
clear a block range smaller than the device's internal allocation unit.
Therefore, the speed of this operation is not guaranteed.
It is difficult to determine whether the storage device supports unmap
write zeroes operation. We cannot determine this by only querying
bdev_limits(bdev)->max_write_zeroes_sectors. Therefore, first, add a new
hardware queue limit parameters, max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors, to
indicate whether a device supports this unmap write zeroes operation.
Then, add two new counterpart software queue limits,
max_wzeroes_unmap_sectors and max_user_wzeroes_unmap_sectors, which
allow users to disable this operation if the speed is very slow on some
sepcial devices.
Finally, for the stacked devices cases, initialize these two parameters
to UINT_MAX. This operation should be enabled by both the stacking
driver and all underlying devices.
Thanks to Martin K. Petersen for optimizing the documentation of the
write_zeroes_unmap sysfs interface.

Add new helper disable_elv_switch() and new flag QUEUE_FLAG_NO_ELV_SWITCH
for disabling elevator switch before deleting disk:
- originally flag QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED is added for preventing elevator
switch during removing disk, but this flag has been used widely for
other purposes, so add one new flag for disabling elevator switch only
- for avoiding deadlock risk, we have to move elevator queue
register/unregister out of elevator lock and queue freeze, which will be
done in next patch. However, this way adds small race window between elevator
switch and deleting ->queue_kobj, in which elevator queue register/unregister
could be run concurrently. The added helper will be used for avoiding the race
in the following patch.

This breaks querying the block ѕize of the underlying device in the

- When updating nr_hw_queues.

but none of the update paths actually use q->sysfs_lock to protect hctx

with q->elevator_lock when reading hctx attributes through sysfs.
Additionally, blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues allocates and updates hctx.

updating hctx params happens without any protection, so safeguard hctx

A queue's elevator can be updated either when modifying nr_hw_queues
or through the sysfs scheduler attribute. Currently, elevator switching/
updating is protected using q->sysfs_lock, but this has led to lockdep
splats[1] due to inconsistent lock ordering between q->sysfs_lock and
the freeze-lock in multiple block layer call sites.
As the scope of q->sysfs_lock is not well-defined, its (mis)use has
resulted in numerous lockdep warnings. To address this, introduce a new
q->elevator_lock, dedicated specifically for protecting elevator
switches/updates. And we'd now use this new q->elevator_lock instead of
q->sysfs_lock for protecting elevator switches/updates.
While at it, make elv_iosched_load_module() a static function, as it is
only called from elv_iosched_store(). Also, remove redundant parameters
from elv_iosched_load_module() function signature.

For devices that natively support zone append operations,
REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND BIOs are not processed through zone write plugging
and are immediately issued to the zoned device. This means that there is
no write pointer offset tracking done for these operations and that a
zone write plug is not necessary.
However, when receiving a zone append BIO, we may already have a zone
write plug for the target zone if that zone was previously partially
written using regular write operations. In such case, since the write
pointer offset of the zone write plug is not incremented by the amount
of sectors appended to the zone, 2 issues arise:
1) we risk leaving the plug in the disk hash table if the zone is fully
written using zone append or regular write operations, because the
write pointer offset will never reach the "zone full" state.
2) Regular write operations that are issued after zone append operations
will always be failed by blk_zone_wplug_prepare_bio() as the write
pointer alignment check will fail, even if the user correctly
accounted for the zone append operations and issued the regular
writes with a correct sector.
Avoid these issues by immediately removing the zone write plug of zones
that are the target of zone append operations when blk_zone_plug_bio()
is called. The new function blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append()
implements this for devices that natively support zone append. The
removal of the zone write plug using disk_remove_zone_wplug() requires
aborting all plugged regular write using disk_zone_wplug_abort() as
otherwise the plugged write BIOs would never be executed (with the plug
removed, the completion path will never see again the zone write plug as
disk_get_zone_wplug() will return NULL). Rate-limited warnings are added
to blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append() and to
disk_zone_wplug_abort() to signal this.
Since blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append() is called in the hot
path for operations that will not be plugged, disk_get_zone_wplug() is
optimized under the assumption that a user issuing zone append
operations is not at the same time issuing regular writes and that there
are no hashed zone write plugs. The struct gendisk atomic counter
nr_zone_wplugs is added to check this, with this counter incremented in
disk_insert_zone_wplug() and decremented in disk_remove_zone_wplug().
To be consistent with this fix, we do not need to fill the zone write
plug hash table with zone write plugs for zones that are partially
written for a device that supports native zone append operations.
So modify blk_revalidate_seq_zone() to return early to avoid allocating
and inserting a zone write plug for partially written sequential zones
if the device natively supports zone append.

We now can support blocksizes larger than PAGE_SIZE, so in theory
we should be able to lift the restriction up to the max supported page
cache order. However bound ourselves to what we can currently validate
and test. Through blktests and fstest we can validate up to 64k today.

The request queue uses ->sysfs_dir_lock for protecting the addition/
deletion of kobject entries under sysfs while we register/unregister
blk-mq. However kobject addition/deletion is already protected with
kernfs/sysfs internal synchronization primitives. So use of q->sysfs_
dir_lock seems redundant.
Moreover, q->sysfs_dir_lock is also used at few other callsites along
with q->sysfs_lock for protecting the addition/deletion of kojects.
One such example is when we register with sysfs a set of independent
access ranges for a disk. Here as well we could get rid off q->sysfs_
dir_lock and only use q->sysfs_lock.
The only variable which q->sysfs_dir_lock appears to protect is q->
mq_sysfs_init_done which is set/unset while registering/unregistering
blk-mq with sysfs. But use of q->mq_sysfs_init_done could be easily
replaced using queue registered bit QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED.
So with this patch we remove q->sysfs_dir_lock from each callsite
and replace q->mq_sysfs_init_done using QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED.

Currently only stacked devices need to explicitly enable atomic writes by
setting BLK_FEAT_ATOMIC_WRITES_STACKED flag.
This does not work well for device mapper stacking devices, as there many
sets of limits are stacked and what is the 'bottom' and 'top' device can
swapped. This means that BLK_FEAT_ATOMIC_WRITES_STACKED needs to be set
for many queue limits, which is messy.
Generalize enabling atomic writes enabling by ensuring that all devices
must explicitly set a flag - that includes NVMe, SCSI sd, and md raid.

For stacking atomic writes, ensure that the start sector is aligned with
the device atomic write unit min and any boundary. Otherwise, we may
permit misaligned atomic writes.
Rework bdev_can_atomic_write() into a common helper to resuse the
alignment check. There also use atomic_write_hw_unit_min, which is more
proper (than atomic_write_unit_min).

Zone write plugging for handling writes to zones of a zoned block
device always execute a zone report whenever a write BIO to a zone
fails. The intent of this is to ensure that the tracking of a zone write
pointer is always correct to ensure that the alignment to a zone write
pointer of write BIOs can be checked on submission and that we can
always correctly emulate zone append operations using regular write
BIOs.
However, this error recovery scheme introduces a potential deadlock if a
device queue freeze is initiated while BIOs are still plugged in a zone
write plug and one of these write operation fails. In such case, the
disk zone write plug error recovery work is scheduled and executes a
report zone. This in turn can result in a request allocation in the
underlying driver to issue the report zones command to the device. But
with the device queue freeze already started, this allocation will
block, preventing the report zone execution and the continuation of the
processing of the plugged BIOs. As plugged BIOs hold a queue usage
reference, the queue freeze itself will never complete, resulting in a
deadlock.
Avoid this problem by completely removing from the zone write plugging
code the use of report zones operations after a failed write operation,
instead relying on the device user to either execute a report zones,
reset the zone, finish the zone, or give up writing to the device (which
is a fairly common pattern for file systems which degrade to read-only
after write failures). This is not an unreasonnable requirement as all
well-behaved applications, FSes and device mapper already use report
zones to recover from write errors whenever possible by comparing the
current position of a zone write pointer with what their assumption
about the position is.
The changes to remove the automatic error recovery are as follows:
- Completely remove the error recovery work and its associated
resources (zone write plug list head, disk error list, and disk
zone_wplugs_work work struct). This also removes the functions
disk_zone_wplug_set_error() and disk_zone_wplug_clear_error().
- Change the BLK_ZONE_WPLUG_ERROR zone write plug flag into
BLK_ZONE_WPLUG_NEED_WP_UPDATE. This new flag is set for a zone write
plug whenever a write opration targetting the zone of the zone write
plug fails. This flag indicates that the zone write pointer offset is
not reliable and that it must be updated when the next report zone,
reset zone, finish zone or disk revalidation is executed.
- Modify blk_zone_write_plug_bio_endio() to set the
BLK_ZONE_WPLUG_NEED_WP_UPDATE flag for the target zone of a failed
write BIO.
- Modify the function disk_zone_wplug_set_wp_offset() to clear this
new flag, thus implementing recovery of a correct write pointer
offset with the reset (all) zone and finish zone operations.
- Modify blkdev_report_zones() to always use the disk_report_zones_cb()
callback so that disk_zone_wplug_sync_wp_offset() can be called for
any zone marked with the BLK_ZONE_WPLUG_NEED_WP_UPDATE flag.
This implements recovery of a correct write pointer offset for zone
write plugs marked with BLK_ZONE_WPLUG_NEED_WP_UPDATE and within
the range of the report zones operation executed by the user.
- Modify blk_revalidate_seq_zone() to call
disk_zone_wplug_sync_wp_offset() for all sequential write required
zones when a zoned block device is revalidated, thus always resolving
any inconsistency between the write pointer offset of zone write
plugs and the actual write pointer position of sequential zones.

The zone reclaim processing of the dm-zoned device mapper uses
blkdev_issue_zeroout() to align the write pointer of a zone being used
for reclaiming another zone, to write the valid data blocks from the
zone being reclaimed at the same position relative to the zone start in
the reclaim target zone.
The first call to blkdev_issue_zeroout() will try to use hardware
offload using a REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES operation if the device reports a
non-zero max_write_zeroes_sectors queue limit. If this operation fails
because of the lack of hardware support, blkdev_issue_zeroout() falls
back to using a regular write operation with the zero-page as buffer.
Currently, such REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES failure is automatically handled by
the block layer zone write plugging code which will execute a report
zones operation to ensure that the write pointer of the target zone of
the failed operation has not changed and to "rewind" the zone write
pointer offset of the target zone as it was advanced when the write zero
operation was submitted. So the REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES failure does not
cause any issue and blkdev_issue_zeroout() works as expected.
However, since the automatic recovery of zone write pointers by the zone
write plugging code can potentially cause deadlocks with queue freeze
operations, a different recovery must be implemented in preparation for
the removal of zone write plugging report zones based recovery.
Do this by introducing the new function blk_zone_issue_zeroout(). This
function first calls blkdev_issue_zeroout() with the flag
BLKDEV_ZERO_NOFALLBACK to intercept failures on the first execution
which attempt to use the device hardware offload with the
REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES operation. If this attempt fails, a report zone
operation is issued to restore the zone write pointer offset of the
target zone to the correct position and blkdev_issue_zeroout() is called
again without the BLKDEV_ZERO_NOFALLBACK flag. The report zones
operation performing this recovery is implemented using the helper
function disk_zone_sync_wp_offset() which calls the gendisk report_zones
file operation with the callback disk_report_zones_cb(). This callback
updates the target write pointer offset of the target zone using the new
function disk_zone_wplug_sync_wp_offset().
dmz_reclaim_align_wp() is modified to change its call to
blkdev_issue_zeroout() to a call to blk_zone_issue_zeroout() without any
other change needed as the two functions are functionnally equivalent.
