virtio-blk: Add bio-based IO path for virtio-blk
This patch introduces bio-based IO path for virtio-blk.
Compared to request-based IO path, bio-based IO path uses driver
provided ->make_request_fn() method to bypasses the IO scheduler. It
handles the bio to device directly without allocating a request in block
layer. This reduces the IO path in guest kernel to achieve high IOPS
and lower latency. The downside is that guest can not use the IO
scheduler to merge and sort requests. However, this is not a big problem
if the backend disk in host side uses faster disk device.
When the bio-based IO path is not enabled, virtio-blk still uses the
original request-based IO path, no performance difference is observed.
Using a slow device e.g. normal SATA disk, the bio-based IO path for
sequential read and write are slower than req-based IO path due to lack
of merge in guest kernel. So we make the bio-based path optional.
Performance evaluation:
-----------------------------
1) Fio test is performed in a 8 vcpu guest with ramdisk based guest using
kvm tool.
Short version:
With bio-based IO path, sequential read/write, random read/write
IOPS boost : 28%, 24%, 21%, 16%
Latency improvement: 32%, 17%, 21%, 16%
How to use:
-----------------------------
Add 'virtio_blk.use_bio=1' to kernel cmdline or 'modprobe virtio_blk
use_bio=1' to enable ->make_request_fn() based I/O path.

This patch adds a user tool, "trace agent" for sending trace data of a guest to
a Host in low overhead. This agent has the following functions:
- splice a page of ring-buffer to read_pipe without memory copying
- splice the page from write_pipe to virtio-console without memory copying
- write trace data to stdout by using -o option
- controlled by start/stop orders from a Host
Changes in v2:
- Cleanup (change fprintf() to pr_err() and an include guard)

Use generic steal operation on pipe buffer to allow stealing
ring buffer's read page from pipe buffer.
Note that this could reduce the performance of splice on the
splice_write side operation without affinity setting.
Since the ring buffer's read pages are allocated on the
tracing-node, but the splice user does not always execute
splice write side operation on the same node. In this case,
the page will be accessed from the another node.
Thus, it is strongly recommended to assign the splicing
thread to corresponding node.

Make most arch asm/module.h files use asm-generic/module.h
Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.
With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

Finally we can kill the 'sync_supers' kernel thread along with the
'->write_super()' superblock operation because all the users are gone.
Now every file-system is supposed to self-manage own superblock and
its dirty state.
The nice thing about killing this thread is that it improves power management.
Indeed, 'sync_supers' is a source of monotonic system wake-ups - it woke up
every 5 seconds no matter what - even if there were no dirty superblocks and
even if there were no file-systems using this service (e.g., btrfs and
journalled ext4 do not need it). So it was wasting power most of the time. And
because the thread was in the core of the kernel, all systems had to have it.
So I am quite happy to make it go away.
Interestingly, this thread is a left-over from the pdflush kernel thread which
was a self-forking kernel thread responsible for all the write-back in old
Linux kernels. It was turned into per-block device BDI threads, and
'sync_supers' was a left-over. Thus, R.I.P, pdflush as well.

perf tool: Save cmdline from user in file header vs what is passed to record
A number of builtin commands process some user args and then pass the rest to
cmd_record. cmd_record then saves argc/argv that it receives into the header of
the perf data file. But this loses the arguments handled by the first command
-- ie., the real command line from the user. This patch saves the command line
as typed by the user rather than what was passed to cmd_record.
As an example consider the command:
$ perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record
-fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 10
Currently the command saved to the header is:
cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf record -o perf.data.kvm -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1
(ignore the duplicated -o -- the first would be yet another bug with perf-kvm).
With this patch the command line saved to the header is:
cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount
record -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1
v2: simplified to saving the command in parse_options per Stephane's suggestion

ceph: simplify+fix atomic_open
The initial ->atomic_open op was carried over from the old intent code,
which was incomplete and didn't really work. Replace it with a fresh
method. In particular:
* always attempt to do an atomic open+lookup, both for the create case
and for lookups of existing files.
* fix symlink handling by returning 1 to the VFS so that we can follow
the link to its destination. This fixes a longstanding ceph bug (#2392).
exofs: Fix __r4w_get_page when offset is beyond i_size
It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on
stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then
the XOR should be preformed with all zeros.
Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great
waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have
pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't
like the kind of bugs this calls for.
Fix both birds, by returning a global ZERO_PAGE, if offset is beyond
i_size.
Exofs has the '->write_super()' handler and makes some use of the '->s_dirt'
superblock flag, but it really needs neither of them because it never sets
's_dirt' to one which means the VFS never calls its '->write_super()' handler.
Thus, remove both.
Note, I am trying to remove both 's_dirt' and 'write_super()' from VFS
altogether once all users are gone.

Commit b2da15ac26a0c ("KVM: VMX: Optimize %ds, %es reload") broke i386
in the following scenario:
vcpu_load
...
vmx_save_host_state
vmx_vcpu_run
(ds.rpl, es.rpl cleared by hardware)
interrupt
push ds, es # pushes bad ds, es
schedule
vmx_vcpu_put
vmx_load_host_state
reload ds, es (with __USER_DS)
pop ds, es # of other thread's stack
iret
# other thread runs
interrupt
push ds, es
schedule # back in vcpu thread
pop ds, es # now with rpl=0
iret
...
vcpu_put
resume_userspace
iret # clears ds, es due to mismatched rpl
(instead of resume_userspace, we might return with SYSEXIT and then
take an exception; when the exception IRETs we end up with cleared
ds, es)
Fix by avoiding the optimization on i386 and reloading ds, es on the
lightweight exit path.

um: pass siginfo to guest process
UML guest processes now get correct siginfo_t for SIGTRAP, SIGFPE,
SIGILL and SIGBUS. Specifically, si_addr and si_code are now correct
where previously they were si_addr = NULL and si_code = 128.

md/raid1: submit IO from originating thread instead of md thread.
queuing writes to the md thread means that all requests go through the
one processor which may not be able to keep up with very high request
rates.
So use the plugging infrastructure to submit all requests on unplug.
If a 'schedule' is needed, we fall back on the old approach of handing
the requests to the thread for it to handle.

raid5: make_request use batch stripe release
make_request() does stripe release for every stripe and the stripe usually has
count 1, which makes previous release_stripe() optimization not work. In my
test, this release_stripe() becomes the heaviest pleace to take
conf->device_lock after previous patches applied.
Below patch makes stripe release batch. All the stripes will be released in
unplug. The STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST bit is to protect concurrent access stripe
lru.
