16 * BFQ is a proportional-share I/O scheduler, with some extra
17 * low-latency capabilities. BFQ also supports full hierarchical
18 * scheduling through cgroups. Next paragraphs provide an introduction
19 * on BFQ inner workings. Details on BFQ benefits, usage and
20 * limitations can be found in Documentation/block/bfq-iosched.txt.
22 * BFQ is a proportional-share storage-I/O scheduling algorithm based
23 * on the slice-by-slice service scheme of CFQ. But BFQ assigns
24 * budgets, measured in number of sectors, to processes instead of
25 * time slices. The device is not granted to the in-service process
26 * for a given time slice, but until it has exhausted its assigned
27 * budget. This change from the time to the service domain enables BFQ
28 * to distribute the device throughput among processes as desired,
29 * without any distortion due to throughput fluctuations, or to device
30 * internal queueing. BFQ uses an ad hoc internal scheduler, called
31 * B-WF2Q+, to schedule processes according to their budgets. More
32 * precisely, BFQ schedules queues associated with processes. Each
33 * process/queue is assigned a user-configurable weight, and B-WF2Q+
34 * guarantees that each queue receives a fraction of the throughput
35 * proportional to its weight. Thanks to the accurate policy of
36 * B-WF2Q+, BFQ can afford to assign high budgets to I/O-bound
37 * processes issuing sequential requests (to boost the throughput),
38 * and yet guarantee a low latency to interactive and soft real-time
41 * In particular, to provide these low-latency guarantees, BFQ
42 * explicitly privileges the I/O of two classes of time-sensitive
43 * applications: interactive and soft real-time. In more detail, BFQ
44 * behaves this way if the low_latency parameter is set (default
45 * configuration). This feature enables BFQ to provide applications in
46 * these classes with a very low latency.
48 * To implement this feature, BFQ constantly tries to detect whether
49 * the I/O requests in a bfq_queue come from an interactive or a soft
50 * real-time application. For brevity, in these cases, the queue is
51 * said to be interactive or soft real-time. In both cases, BFQ
52 * privileges the service of the queue, over that of non-interactive
53 * and non-soft-real-time queues. This privileging is performed,
54 * mainly, by raising the weight of the queue. So, for brevity, we
55 * call just weight-raising periods the time periods during which a
56 * queue is privileged, because deemed interactive or soft real-time.
58 * The detection of soft real-time queues/applications is described in
59 * detail in the comments on the function
60 * bfq_bfqq_softrt_next_start. On the other hand, the detection of an
61 * interactive queue works as follows: a queue is deemed interactive
62 * if it is constantly non empty only for a limited time interval,
63 * after which it does become empty. The queue may be deemed
64 * interactive again (for a limited time), if it restarts being
65 * constantly non empty, provided that this happens only after the
66 * queue has remained empty for a given minimum idle time.
68 * By default, BFQ computes automatically the above maximum time
69 * interval, i.e., the time interval after which a constantly
70 * non-empty queue stops being deemed interactive. Since a queue is
71 * weight-raised while it is deemed interactive, this maximum time
72 * interval happens to coincide with the (maximum) duration of the
73 * weight-raising for interactive queues.
75 * Finally, BFQ also features additional heuristics for
76 * preserving both a low latency and a high throughput on NCQ-capable,
77 * rotational or flash-based devices, and to get the job done quickly
78 * for applications consisting in many I/O-bound processes.
80 * NOTE: if the main or only goal, with a given device, is to achieve
81 * the maximum-possible throughput at all times, then do switch off
82 * all low-latency heuristics for that device, by setting low_latency
85 * BFQ is described in [1], where also a reference to the initial,
86 * more theoretical paper on BFQ can be found. The interested reader
87 * can find in the latter paper full details on the main algorithm, as
88 * well as formulas of the guarantees and formal proofs of all the
89 * properties. With respect to the version of BFQ presented in these
90 * papers, this implementation adds a few more heuristics, such as the
91 * ones that guarantee a low latency to interactive and soft real-time
92 * applications, and a hierarchical extension based on H-WF2Q+.
94 * B-WF2Q+ is based on WF2Q+, which is described in [2], together with
95 * H-WF2Q+, while the augmented tree used here to implement B-WF2Q+
96 * with O(log N) complexity derives from the one introduced with EEVDF

269 * When configured for computing the duration of the weight-raising
270 * for interactive queues automatically (see the comments at the
271 * beginning of this file), BFQ does it using the following formula:
272 * duration = (ref_rate / r) * ref_wr_duration,
273 * where r is the peak rate of the device, and ref_rate and
274 * ref_wr_duration are two reference parameters. In particular,
275 * ref_rate is the peak rate of the reference storage device (see
276 * below), and ref_wr_duration is about the maximum time needed, with
277 * BFQ and while reading two files in parallel, to load typical large
278 * applications on the reference device (see the comments on
279 * max_service_from_wr below, for more details on how ref_wr_duration
280 * is obtained). In practice, the slower/faster the device at hand
281 * is, the more/less it takes to load applications with respect to the
282 * reference device. Accordingly, the longer/shorter BFQ grants
283 * weight raising to interactive applications.
285 * BFQ uses two different reference pairs (ref_rate, ref_wr_duration),
286 * depending on whether the device is rotational or non-rotational.
288 * In the following definitions, ref_rate[0] and ref_wr_duration[0]
289 * are the reference values for a rotational device, whereas
290 * ref_rate[1] and ref_wr_duration[1] are the reference values for a
291 * non-rotational device. The reference rates are not the actual peak
292 * rates of the devices used as a reference, but slightly lower
293 * values. The reason for using slightly lower values is that the
294 * peak-rate estimator tends to yield slightly lower values than the
295 * actual peak rate (it can yield the actual peak rate only if there
296 * is only one process doing I/O, and the process does sequential

304 * To improve readability, a conversion function is used to initialize
305 * the following array, which entails that the array can be
306 * initialized only in a function.
308 static int ref_wr_duration
[2];
311 * BFQ uses the above-detailed, time-based weight-raising mechanism to
312 * privilege interactive tasks. This mechanism is vulnerable to the
313 * following false positives: I/O-bound applications that will go on
314 * doing I/O for much longer than the duration of weight
315 * raising. These applications have basically no benefit from being
316 * weight-raised at the beginning of their I/O. On the opposite end,
317 * while being weight-raised, these applications
318 * a) unjustly steal throughput to applications that may actually need
320 * b) make BFQ uselessly perform device idling; device idling results
321 * in loss of device throughput with most flash-based storage, and may
322 * increase latencies when used purposelessly.
324 * BFQ tries to reduce these problems, by adopting the following
325 * countermeasure. To introduce this countermeasure, we need first to
326 * finish explaining how the duration of weight-raising for
327 * interactive tasks is computed.
329 * For a bfq_queue deemed as interactive, the duration of weight
330 * raising is dynamically adjusted, as a function of the estimated
331 * peak rate of the device, so as to be equal to the time needed to
332 * execute the 'largest' interactive task we benchmarked so far. By
333 * largest task, we mean the task for which each involved process has
334 * to do more I/O than for any of the other tasks we benchmarked. This
335 * reference interactive task is the start-up of LibreOffice Writer,
336 * and in this task each process/bfq_queue needs to have at most ~110K
337 * sectors transferred.
339 * This last piece of information enables BFQ to reduce the actual
340 * duration of weight-raising for at least one class of I/O-bound
341 * applications: those doing sequential or quasi-sequential I/O. An
342 * example is file copy. In fact, once started, the main I/O-bound
343 * processes of these applications usually consume the above 110K
344 * sectors in much less time than the processes of an application that
345 * is starting, because these I/O-bound processes will greedily devote
346 * almost all their CPU cycles only to their target,
347 * throughput-friendly I/O operations. This is even more true if BFQ
348 * happens to be underestimating the device peak rate, and thus
349 * overestimating the duration of weight raising. But, according to
350 * our measurements, once transferred 110K sectors, these processes
351 * have no right to be weight-raised any longer.
353 * Basing on the last consideration, BFQ ends weight-raising for a
354 * bfq_queue if the latter happens to have received an amount of
355 * service at least equal to the following constant. The constant is
356 * set to slightly more than 110K, to have a minimum safety margin.
358 * This early ending of weight-raising reduces the amount of time
359 * during which interactive false positives cause the two problems
360 * described at the beginning of these comments.

1134 * many parallel threads/processes. Examples are systemd during boot,
1135 * or git grep. To help these processes get their job done as soon as
1136 * possible, it is usually better to not grant either weight-raising
1137 * or device idling to their queues, unless these queues must be
1138 * protected from the I/O flowing through other active queues.
1140 * In this comment we describe, firstly, the reasons why this fact
1141 * holds, and, secondly, the next function, which implements the main
1142 * steps needed to properly mark these queues so that they can then be
1143 * treated in a different way.
1145 * The above services or applications benefit mostly from a high
1146 * throughput: the quicker the requests of the activated queues are
1147 * cumulatively served, the sooner the target job of these queues gets
1148 * completed. As a consequence, weight-raising any of these queues,
1149 * which also implies idling the device for it, is almost always
1150 * counterproductive, unless there are other active queues to isolate
1151 * these new queues from. If there no other active queues, then
1152 * weight-raising these new queues just lowers throughput in most
1155 * On the other hand, a burst of queue creations may be caused also by
1156 * the start of an application that does not consist of a lot of
1157 * parallel I/O-bound threads. In fact, with a complex application,
1158 * several short processes may need to be executed to start-up the
1159 * application. In this respect, to start an application as quickly as
1160 * possible, the best thing to do is in any case to privilege the I/O
1161 * related to the application with respect to all other
1162 * I/O. Therefore, the best strategy to start as quickly as possible
1163 * an application that causes a burst of queue creations is to
1164 * weight-raise all the queues created during the burst. This is the
1165 * exact opposite of the best strategy for the other type of bursts.
1167 * In the end, to take the best action for each of the two cases, the
1168 * two types of bursts need to be distinguished. Fortunately, this
1169 * seems relatively easy, by looking at the sizes of the bursts. In
1170 * particular, we found a threshold such that only bursts with a
1171 * larger size than that threshold are apparently caused by
1172 * services or commands such as systemd or git grep. For brevity,
1173 * hereafter we call just 'large' these bursts. BFQ *does not*
1174 * weight-raise queues whose creation occurs in a large burst. In
1175 * addition, for each of these queues BFQ performs or does not perform
1176 * idling depending on which choice boosts the throughput more. The
1177 * exact choice depends on the device and request pattern at
1180 * Unfortunately, false positives may occur while an interactive task
1181 * is starting (e.g., an application is being started). The
1182 * consequence is that the queues associated with the task do not
1183 * enjoy weight raising as expected. Fortunately these false positives
1184 * are very rare. They typically occur if some service happens to
1185 * start doing I/O exactly when the interactive task starts.
1187 * Turning back to the next function, it is invoked only if there are
1188 * no active queues (apart from active queues that would belong to the
1189 * same, possible burst bfqq would belong to), and it implements all
1190 * the steps needed to detect the occurrence of a large burst and to
1191 * properly mark all the queues belonging to it (so that they can then
1192 * be treated in a different way). This goal is achieved by
1193 * maintaining a "burst list" that holds, temporarily, the queues that
1194 * belong to the burst in progress. The list is then used to mark
1195 * these queues as belonging to a large burst if the burst does become
1196 * large. The main steps are the following.
1198 * . when the very first queue is created, the queue is inserted into the
1199 * list (as it could be the first queue in a possible burst)
1201 * . if the current burst has not yet become large, and a queue Q that does
1202 * not yet belong to the burst is activated shortly after the last time
1203 * at which a new queue entered the burst list, then the function appends
1204 * Q to the burst list
1206 * . if, as a consequence of the previous step, the burst size reaches
1207 * the large-burst threshold, then
1209 * . all the queues in the burst list are marked as belonging to a
1212 * . the burst list is deleted; in fact, the burst list already served
1213 * its purpose (keeping temporarily track of the queues in a burst,
1214 * so as to be able to mark them as belonging to a large burst in the
1215 * previous sub-step), and now is not needed any more
1217 * . the device enters a large-burst mode
1219 * . if a queue Q that does not belong to the burst is created while
1220 * the device is in large-burst mode and shortly after the last time
1221 * at which a queue either entered the burst list or was marked as
1222 * belonging to the current large burst, then Q is immediately marked
1223 * as belonging to a large burst.
1225 * . if a queue Q that does not belong to the burst is created a while
1226 * later, i.e., not shortly after, than the last time at which a queue
1227 * either entered the burst list or was marked as belonging to the
1228 * current large burst, then the current burst is deemed as finished and:
1230 * . the large-burst mode is reset if set
1232 * . the burst list is emptied
1234 * . Q is inserted in the burst list, as Q may be the first queue
1235 * in a possible new burst (then the burst list contains just Q

1339 * whether the in-service queue should be expired, by returning
1340 * true. The purpose of expiring the in-service queue is to give bfqq
1341 * the chance to possibly preempt the in-service queue, and the reason
1342 * for preempting the in-service queue is to achieve one of the two
1345 * 1. Guarantee to bfqq its reserved bandwidth even if bfqq has
1346 * expired because it has remained idle. In particular, bfqq may have
1347 * expired for one of the following two reasons:
1349 * - BFQQE_NO_MORE_REQUESTS bfqq did not enjoy any device idling
1350 * and did not make it to issue a new request before its last
1351 * request was served;
1353 * - BFQQE_TOO_IDLE bfqq did enjoy device idling, but did not issue
1354 * a new request before the expiration of the idling-time.
1356 * Even if bfqq has expired for one of the above reasons, the process
1357 * associated with the queue may be however issuing requests greedily,
1358 * and thus be sensitive to the bandwidth it receives (bfqq may have
1359 * remained idle for other reasons: CPU high load, bfqq not enjoying
1360 * idling, I/O throttling somewhere in the path from the process to
1361 * the I/O scheduler, ...). But if, after every expiration for one of
1362 * the above two reasons, bfqq has to wait for the service of at least
1363 * one full budget of another queue before being served again, then
1364 * bfqq is likely to get a much lower bandwidth or resource time than
1365 * its reserved ones. To address this issue, two countermeasures need
1368 * First, the budget and the timestamps of bfqq need to be updated in
1369 * a special way on bfqq reactivation: they need to be updated as if
1370 * bfqq did not remain idle and did not expire. In fact, if they are
1371 * computed as if bfqq expired and remained idle until reactivation,
1372 * then the process associated with bfqq is treated as if, instead of
1373 * being greedy, it stopped issuing requests when bfqq remained idle,
1374 * and restarts issuing requests only on this reactivation. In other
1375 * words, the scheduler does not help the process recover the "service
1376 * hole" between bfqq expiration and reactivation. As a consequence,
1377 * the process receives a lower bandwidth than its reserved one. In
1378 * contrast, to recover this hole, the budget must be updated as if
1379 * bfqq was not expired at all before this reactivation, i.e., it must
1380 * be set to the value of the remaining budget when bfqq was
1381 * expired. Along the same line, timestamps need to be assigned the
1382 * value they had the last time bfqq was selected for service, i.e.,
1383 * before last expiration. Thus timestamps need to be back-shifted
1384 * with respect to their normal computation (see [1] for more details
1385 * on this tricky aspect).
1387 * Secondly, to allow the process to recover the hole, the in-service
1388 * queue must be expired too, to give bfqq the chance to preempt it
1389 * immediately. In fact, if bfqq has to wait for a full budget of the
1390 * in-service queue to be completed, then it may become impossible to
1391 * let the process recover the hole, even if the back-shifted
1392 * timestamps of bfqq are lower than those of the in-service queue. If
1393 * this happens for most or all of the holes, then the process may not
1394 * receive its reserved bandwidth. In this respect, it is worth noting
1395 * that, being the service of outstanding requests unpreemptible, a
1396 * little fraction of the holes may however be unrecoverable, thereby
1397 * causing a little loss of bandwidth.
1399 * The last important point is detecting whether bfqq does need this
1400 * bandwidth recovery. In this respect, the next function deems the
1401 * process associated with bfqq greedy, and thus allows it to recover
1402 * the hole, if: 1) the process is waiting for the arrival of a new
1403 * request (which implies that bfqq expired for one of the above two
1404 * reasons), and 2) such a request has arrived soon. The first
1405 * condition is controlled through the flag non_blocking_wait_rq,
1406 * while the second through the flag arrived_in_time. If both
1407 * conditions hold, then the function computes the budget in the
1408 * above-described special way, and signals that the in-service queue
1409 * should be expired. Timestamp back-shifting is done later in
1410 * __bfq_activate_entity.
1412 * 2. Reduce latency. Even if timestamps are not backshifted to let
1413 * the process associated with bfqq recover a service hole, bfqq may
1414 * however happen to have, after being (re)activated, a lower finish
1415 * timestamp than the in-service queue. That is, the next budget of
1416 * bfqq may have to be completed before the one of the in-service
1417 * queue. If this is the case, then preempting the in-service queue
1418 * allows this goal to be achieved, apart from the unpreemptible,
1419 * outstanding requests mentioned above.
1421 * Unfortunately, regardless of which of the above two goals one wants
1422 * to achieve, service trees need first to be updated to know whether
1423 * the in-service queue must be preempted. To have service trees
1424 * correctly updated, the in-service queue must be expired and
1425 * rescheduled, and bfqq must be scheduled too. This is one of the
1426 * most costly operations (in future versions, the scheduling
1427 * mechanism may be re-designed in such a way to make it possible to
1428 * know whether preemption is needed without needing to update service
1429 * trees). In addition, queue preemptions almost always cause random
1430 * I/O, and thus loss of throughput. Because of these facts, the next
1431 * function adopts the following simple scheme to avoid both costly
1432 * operations and too frequent preemptions: it requests the expiration
1433 * of the in-service queue (unconditionally) only for queues that need
1434 * to recover a hole, or that either are weight-raised or deserve to

1795 * request in service in the drive is unlikely

1810 * occurs with bfqq. On the downside, this
1811 * proactive step further reduces chances to
1812 * actually compute the baseline total service

2399 * throughput, it must have many requests enqueued at the same
2400 * time. But, in this configuration, the internal scheduling
2401 * algorithm of the device does exactly the job of queue
2402 * merging: it reorders requests so as to obtain as much as
2403 * possible a sequential I/O pattern. As a consequence, with
2404 * the workload generated by processes doing interleaved I/O,
2405 * the throughput reached by the device is likely to be the
2406 * same, with and without queue merging.
2408 * Disabling merging also provides a remarkable benefit in
2409 * terms of throughput. Merging tends to make many workloads
2410 * artificially more uneven, because of shared queues
2411 * remaining non empty for incomparably more time than
2412 * non-merged queues. This may accentuate workload
2413 * asymmetries. For example, if one of the queues in a set of
2414 * merged queues has a higher weight than a normal queue, then
2415 * the shared queue may inherit such a high weight and, by
2416 * staying almost always active, may force BFQ to perform I/O
2417 * plugging most of the time. This evidently makes it harder
2418 * for BFQ to let the device reach a high throughput.
2420 * Finally, the likely() macro below is not used because one
2421 * of the two branches is more likely than the other, but to
2422 * have the code path after the following if() executed as
2423 * fast as possible for the case of a non rotational device
2424 * with queueing. We want it because this is the fastest kind
2425 * of device. On the opposite end, the likely() may lengthen
2426 * the execution time of BFQ for the case of slower devices

2939 * say exactly when a given dispatched request is served inside the

2941 * precisely at what rate a given set of requests is actually served
2944 * On the opposite end, the dispatch time of any request is trivially
2945 * available, and, from this piece of information, the "dispatch rate"
2946 * of requests can be immediately computed. So, the idea in the next
2947 * function is to use what is known, namely request dispatch times
2948 * (plus, when useful, request completion times), to estimate what is
2949 * unknown, namely in-device request service rate.
2951 * The main issue is that, because of the above facts, the rate at
2952 * which a certain set of requests is dispatched over a certain time
2953 * interval can vary greatly with respect to the rate at which the
2954 * same requests are then served. But, since the size of any
2955 * intermediate queue is limited, and the service scheme is lossless
2956 * (no request is silently dropped), the following obvious convergence
2957 * property holds: the number of requests dispatched MUST become
2958 * closer and closer to the number of requests completed as the
2959 * observation interval grows. This is the key property used in
2960 * the next function to estimate the peak service rate as a function

3273 * the real rate at which the I/O requests of each bfq_queue are
3274 * served. In fact, for an I/O scheduler like BFQ, serving a
3275 * bfq_queue means just dispatching its requests during its service
3276 * slot (i.e., until the budget of the queue is exhausted, or the
3277 * queue remains idle, or, finally, a timeout fires). But, during the
3278 * service slot of a bfq_queue, around 100 ms at most, the device may
3279 * be even still processing requests of bfq_queues served in previous
3280 * service slots. On the opposite end, the requests of the in-service
3281 * bfq_queue may be completed after the service slot of the queue
3284 * Anyway, unless more sophisticated solutions are used
3285 * (where possible), the sum of the sizes of the requests dispatched
3286 * during the service slot of a bfq_queue is probably the only
3287 * approximation available for the service received by the bfq_queue
3288 * during its service slot. And this sum is the quantity used in this

3351 * bandwidth higher than the approximate bandwidth required to playback or
3352 * record a compressed high-definition video.
3353 * The next function is invoked on the completion of the last request of a
3354 * batch, to compute the next-start time instant, soft_rt_next_start, such
3355 * that, if the next request of the application does not arrive before
3356 * soft_rt_next_start, then the above requirement on the bandwidth is met.
3358 * The second requirement is that the request pattern of the application is
3359 * isochronous, i.e., that, after issuing a request or a batch of requests,
3360 * the application stops issuing new requests until all its pending requests
3361 * have been completed. After that, the application may issue a new batch,
3363 * For this reason the next function is invoked to compute
3364 * soft_rt_next_start only for applications that meet this requirement,
3365 * whereas soft_rt_next_start is set to infinity for applications that do
3368 * Unfortunately, even a greedy (i.e., I/O-bound) application may
3369 * happen to meet, occasionally or systematically, both the above
3370 * bandwidth and isochrony requirements. This may happen at least in
3371 * the following circumstances. First, if the CPU load is high. The
3372 * application may stop issuing requests while the CPUs are busy
3373 * serving other processes, then restart, then stop again for a while,
3374 * and so on. The other circumstances are related to the storage
3375 * device: the storage device is highly loaded or reaches a low-enough
3376 * throughput with the I/O of the application (e.g., because the I/O
3377 * is random and/or the device is slow). In all these cases, the
3378 * I/O of the application may be simply slowed down enough to meet
3379 * the bandwidth and isochrony requirements. To reduce the probability
3380 * that greedy applications are deemed as soft real-time in these
3381 * corner cases, a further rule is used in the computation of
3382 * soft_rt_next_start: the return value of this function is forced to
3383 * be higher than the maximum between the following two quantities.
3385 * (a) Current time plus: (1) the maximum time for which the arrival
3386 * of a request is waited for when a sync queue becomes idle,
3387 * namely bfqd->bfq_slice_idle, and (2) a few extra jiffies. We
3388 * postpone for a moment the reason for adding a few extra
3389 * jiffies; we get back to it after next item (b). Lower-bounding
3390 * the return value of this function with the current time plus
3391 * bfqd->bfq_slice_idle tends to filter out greedy applications,
3392 * because the latter issue their next request as soon as possible
3393 * after the last one has been completed. In contrast, a soft
3394 * real-time application spends some time processing data, after a
3395 * batch of its requests has been completed.
3397 * (b) Current value of bfqq->soft_rt_next_start. As pointed out
3398 * above, greedy applications may happen to meet both the
3399 * bandwidth and isochrony requirements under heavy CPU or
3400 * storage-device load. In more detail, in these scenarios, these
3401 * applications happen, only for limited time periods, to do I/O
3402 * slowly enough to meet all the requirements described so far,
3403 * including the filtering in above item (a). These slow-speed
3404 * time intervals are usually interspersed between other time
3405 * intervals during which these applications do I/O at a very high
3406 * speed. Fortunately, exactly because of the high speed of the
3407 * I/O in the high-speed intervals, the values returned by this
3408 * function happen to be so high, near the end of any such
3409 * high-speed interval, to be likely to fall *after* the end of
3410 * the low-speed time interval that follows. These high values are
3411 * stored in bfqq->soft_rt_next_start after each invocation of
3412 * this function. As a consequence, if the last value of
3413 * bfqq->soft_rt_next_start is constantly used to lower-bound the
3414 * next value that this function may return, then, from the very
3415 * beginning of a low-speed interval, bfqq->soft_rt_next_start is
3416 * likely to be constantly kept so high that any I/O request
3417 * issued during the low-speed interval is considered as arriving
3418 * to soon for the application to be deemed as soft
3419 * real-time. Then, in the high-speed interval that follows, the
3420 * application will not be deemed as soft real-time, just because
3421 * it will do I/O at a high speed. And so on.
3423 * Getting back to the filtering in item (a), in the following two
3424 * cases this filtering might be easily passed by a greedy
3425 * application, if the reference quantity was just
3426 * bfqd->bfq_slice_idle:
3427 * 1) HZ is so low that the duration of a jiffy is comparable to or
3428 * higher than bfqd->bfq_slice_idle. This happens, e.g., on slow
3429 * devices with HZ=100. The time granularity may be so coarse
3430 * that the approximation, in jiffies, of bfqd->bfq_slice_idle
3431 * is rather lower than the exact value.
3432 * 2) jiffies, instead of increasing at a constant rate, may stop increasing
3433 * for a while, then suddenly 'jump' by several units to recover the lost
3434 * increments. This seems to happen, e.g., inside virtual machines.
3435 * To address this issue, in the filtering in (a) we do not use as a
3436 * reference time interval just bfqd->bfq_slice_idle, but
3437 * bfqd->bfq_slice_idle plus a few jiffies. In particular, we add the
3438 * minimum number of jiffies for which the filter seems to be quite
3439 * precise also in embedded systems and KVM/QEMU virtual machines.

3689 * weight-raised queues.
3691 * When the request pool is saturated (e.g., in the presence
3692 * of write hogs), if the processes associated with
3693 * non-weight-raised queues ask for requests at a lower rate,
3694 * then processes associated with weight-raised queues have a
3695 * higher probability to get a request from the pool
3696 * immediately (or at least soon) when they need one. Thus
3697 * they have a higher probability to actually get a fraction
3698 * of the device throughput proportional to their high
3699 * weight. This is especially true with NCQ-capable drives,
3700 * which enqueue several requests in advance, and further
3701 * reorder internally-queued requests.
3703 * For this reason, we force to false the return value if

3710 * sync non-weight-raised queue, to get a lower number of
3711 * requests served, and thus to ask for a lower number of
3712 * requests from the request pool, before the busy
3713 * weight-raised queues get served again. This often mitigates

3724 * There is a case where idling does not have to be performed for

3726 * the process associated with bfqq.
3728 * To introduce this case, we can note that allowing the drive
3729 * to enqueue more than one request at a time, and hence
3730 * delegating de facto final scheduling decisions to the
3731 * drive's internal scheduler, entails loss of control on the
3732 * actual request service order. In particular, the critical
3733 * situation is when requests from different processes happen
3734 * to be present, at the same time, in the internal queue(s)
3735 * of the drive. In such a situation, the drive, by deciding
3736 * the service order of the internally-queued requests, does
3737 * determine also the actual throughput distribution among
3738 * these processes. But the drive typically has no notion or
3739 * concern about per-process throughput distribution, and
3740 * makes its decisions only on a per-request basis. Therefore,
3741 * the service distribution enforced by the drive's internal
3742 * scheduler is likely to coincide with the desired throughput
3743 * distribution only in a completely symmetric, or favorably
3744 * skewed scenario where:
3745 * (i-a) each of these processes must get the same throughput as
3747 * (i-b) in case (i-a) does not hold, it holds that the process
3748 * associated with bfqq must receive a lower or equal
3749 * throughput than any of the other processes;
3750 * (ii) the I/O of each process has the same properties, in
3751 * terms of locality (sequential or random), direction
3752 * (reads or writes), request sizes, greediness
3753 * (from I/O-bound to sporadic), and so on;
3755 * In fact, in such a scenario, the drive tends to treat the requests
3756 * of each process in about the same way as the requests of the
3757 * others, and thus to provide each of these processes with about the
3758 * same throughput. This is exactly the desired throughput
3759 * distribution if (i-a) holds, or, if (i-b) holds instead, this is an
3760 * even more convenient distribution for (the process associated with)
3763 * In contrast, in any asymmetric or unfavorable scenario, device
3764 * idling (I/O-dispatch plugging) is certainly needed to guarantee
3765 * that bfqq receives its assigned fraction of the device throughput
3766 * (see [1] for details).
3768 * The problem is that idling may significantly reduce throughput with
3769 * certain combinations of types of I/O and devices. An important
3770 * example is sync random I/O on flash storage with command
3771 * queueing. So, unless bfqq falls in cases where idling also boosts
3772 * throughput, it is important to check conditions (i-a), i(-b) and
3773 * (ii) accurately, so as to avoid idling when not strictly needed for
3774 * service guarantees.
3776 * Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to thoroughly check
3777 * condition (ii). And, in case there are active groups, it becomes
3778 * very difficult to check conditions (i-a) and (i-b) too. In fact,
3779 * if there are active groups, then, for conditions (i-a) or (i-b) to
3780 * become false 'indirectly', it is enough that an active group
3781 * contains more active processes or sub-groups than some other active
3782 * group. More precisely, for conditions (i-a) or (i-b) to become
3783 * false because of such a group, it is not even necessary that the
3784 * group is (still) active: it is sufficient that, even if the group
3785 * has become inactive, some of its descendant processes still have
3786 * some request already dispatched but still waiting for
3787 * completion. In fact, requests have still to be guaranteed their
3788 * share of the throughput even after being dispatched. In this
3789 * respect, it is easy to show that, if a group frequently becomes
3790 * inactive while still having in-flight requests, and if, when this
3791 * happens, the group is not considered in the calculation of whether
3792 * the scenario is asymmetric, then the group may fail to be
3793 * guaranteed its fair share of the throughput (basically because
3794 * idling may not be performed for the descendant processes of the
3795 * group, but it had to be). We address this issue with the following
3796 * bi-modal behavior, implemented in the function
3797 * bfq_asymmetric_scenario().
3799 * If there are groups with requests waiting for completion
3800 * (as commented above, some of these groups may even be
3801 * already inactive), then the scenario is tagged as
3802 * asymmetric, conservatively, without checking any of the
3803 * conditions (i-a), (i-b) or (ii). So the device is idled for bfqq.
3804 * This behavior matches also the fact that groups are created
3805 * exactly if controlling I/O is a primary concern (to
3806 * preserve bandwidth and latency guarantees).
3808 * On the opposite end, if there are no groups with requests waiting
3809 * for completion, then only conditions (i-a) and (i-b) are actually
3810 * controlled, i.e., provided that conditions (i-a) or (i-b) holds,
3811 * idling is not performed, regardless of whether condition (ii)
3812 * holds. In other words, only if conditions (i-a) and (i-b) do not
3813 * hold, then idling is allowed, and the device tends to be prevented
3814 * from queueing many requests, possibly of several processes. Since
3815 * there are no groups with requests waiting for completion, then, to
3816 * control conditions (i-a) and (i-b) it is enough to check just
3817 * whether all the queues with requests waiting for completion also
3818 * have the same weight.
3820 * Not checking condition (ii) evidently exposes bfqq to the
3821 * risk of getting less throughput than its fair share.
3822 * However, for queues with the same weight, a further
3823 * mechanism, preemption, mitigates or even eliminates this
3824 * problem. And it does so without consequences on overall
3825 * throughput. This mechanism and its benefits are explained
3826 * in the next three paragraphs.
3828 * Even if a queue, say Q, is expired when it remains idle, Q
3829 * can still preempt the new in-service queue if the next
3830 * request of Q arrives soon (see the comments on
3831 * bfq_bfqq_update_budg_for_activation). If all queues and
3832 * groups have the same weight, this form of preemption,
3833 * combined with the hole-recovery heuristic described in the
3834 * comments on function bfq_bfqq_update_budg_for_activation,
3835 * are enough to preserve a correct bandwidth distribution in
3836 * the mid term, even without idling. In fact, even if not
3837 * idling allows the internal queues of the device to contain
3838 * many requests, and thus to reorder requests, we can rather
3839 * safely assume that the internal scheduler still preserves a
3840 * minimum of mid-term fairness.
3842 * More precisely, this preemption-based, idleless approach
3843 * provides fairness in terms of IOPS, and not sectors per
3844 * second. This can be seen with a simple example. Suppose
3845 * that there are two queues with the same weight, but that
3846 * the first queue receives requests of 8 sectors, while the
3847 * second queue receives requests of 1024 sectors. In
3848 * addition, suppose that each of the two queues contains at
3849 * most one request at a time, which implies that each queue
3850 * always remains idle after it is served. Finally, after
3851 * remaining idle, each queue receives very quickly a new
3852 * request. It follows that the two queues are served
3853 * alternatively, preempting each other if needed. This
3854 * implies that, although both queues have the same weight,
3855 * the queue with large requests receives a service that is
3856 * 1024/8 times as high as the service received by the other
3859 * The motivation for using preemption instead of idling (for
3860 * queues with the same weight) is that, by not idling,
3861 * service guarantees are preserved (completely or at least in
3862 * part) without minimally sacrificing throughput. And, if
3863 * there is no active group, then the primary expectation for
3864 * this device is probably a high throughput.
3866 * We are now left only with explaining the additional
3867 * compound condition that is checked below for deciding
3868 * whether the scenario is asymmetric. To explain this
3869 * compound condition, we need to add that the function
3870 * bfq_asymmetric_scenario checks the weights of only
3871 * non-weight-raised queues, for efficiency reasons (see
3872 * comments on bfq_weights_tree_add()). Then the fact that
3873 * bfqq is weight-raised is checked explicitly here. More
3874 * precisely, the compound condition below takes into account
3875 * also the fact that, even if bfqq is being weight-raised,
3876 * the scenario is still symmetric if all queues with requests
3877 * waiting for completion happen to be
3878 * weight-raised. Actually, we should be even more precise
3879 * here, and differentiate between interactive weight raising
3880 * and soft real-time weight raising.
3882 * As a side note, it is worth considering that the above
3883 * device-idling countermeasures may however fail in the
3884 * following unlucky scenario: if idling is (correctly)
3885 * disabled in a time period during which all symmetry
3886 * sub-conditions hold, and hence the device is allowed to
3887 * enqueue many requests, but at some later point in time some
3888 * sub-condition stops to hold, then it may become impossible
3889 * to let requests be served in the desired order until all
3890 * the requests already queued in the device have been served.

5277 * could serve the same I/O. This is rather probable, e.g., if only
5278 * one process is associated with bfqq and the device is an SSD. It
5279 * results in bfqq becoming often empty while in service. In this
5280 * respect, if BFQ is allowed to switch to another queue when bfqq
5281 * remains empty, then the device goes on being fed with I/O requests,
5282 * and the throughput is not affected. In contrast, if BFQ is not
5283 * allowed to switch to another queue---because bfqq is sync and
5284 * I/O-dispatch needs to be plugged while bfqq is temporarily
5285 * empty---then, during the service of bfqq, there will be frequent
5286 * "service holes", i.e., time intervals during which bfqq gets empty
5287 * and the device can only consume the I/O already queued in its
5288 * hardware queues. During service holes, the device may even get to
5289 * remaining idle. In the end, during the service of bfqq, the device
5290 * is driven at a lower speed than the one it can reach with the kind
5291 * of I/O flowing through bfqq.
5293 * To counter this loss of throughput, BFQ implements a "request
5294 * injection mechanism", which tries to fill the above service holes
5295 * with I/O requests taken from other queues. The hard part in this
5296 * mechanism is finding the right amount of I/O to inject, so as to
5297 * both boost throughput and not break bfqq's bandwidth and latency
5298 * guarantees. In this respect, the mechanism maintains a per-queue
5299 * inject limit, computed as below. While bfqq is empty, the injection
5300 * mechanism dispatches extra I/O requests only until the total number
5301 * of I/O requests in flight---i.e., already dispatched but not yet
5302 * completed---remains lower than this limit.
5304 * A first definition comes in handy to introduce the algorithm by
5305 * which the inject limit is computed. We define as first request for
5306 * bfqq, an I/O request for bfqq that arrives while bfqq is in
5307 * service, and causes bfqq to switch from empty to non-empty. The
5308 * algorithm updates the limit as a function of the effect of
5309 * injection on the service times of only the first requests of
5310 * bfqq. The reason for this restriction is that these are the
5311 * requests whose service time is affected most, because they are the
5312 * first to arrive after injection possibly occurred.
5314 * To evaluate the effect of injection, the algorithm measures the
5315 * "total service time" of first requests. We define as total service
5316 * time of an I/O request, the time that elapses since when the
5317 * request is enqueued into bfqq, to when it is completed. This
5318 * quantity allows the whole effect of injection to be measured. It is
5319 * easy to see why. Suppose that some requests of other queues are
5320 * actually injected while bfqq is empty, and that a new request R
5321 * then arrives for bfqq. If the device does start to serve all or
5322 * part of the injected requests during the service hole, then,
5323 * because of this extra service, it may delay the next invocation of
5324 * the dispatch hook of BFQ. Then, even after R gets eventually
5325 * dispatched, the device may delay the actual service of R if it is
5326 * still busy serving the extra requests, or if it decides to serve,
5327 * before R, some extra request still present in its queues. As a
5328 * conclusion, the cumulative extra delay caused by injection can be
5329 * easily evaluated by just comparing the total service time of first
5330 * requests with and without injection.
5332 * The limit-update algorithm works as follows. On the arrival of a
5333 * first request of bfqq, the algorithm measures the total time of the
5334 * request only if one of the three cases below holds, and, for each
5335 * case, it updates the limit as described below:
5337 * (1) If there is no in-flight request. This gives a baseline for the
5338 * total service time of the requests of bfqq. If the baseline has
5339 * not been computed yet, then, after computing it, the limit is
5340 * set to 1, to start boosting throughput, and to prepare the
5341 * ground for the next case. If the baseline has already been
5342 * computed, then it is updated, in case it results to be lower
5343 * than the previous value.
5345 * (2) If the limit is higher than 0 and there are in-flight
5346 * requests. By comparing the total service time in this case with
5347 * the above baseline, it is possible to know at which extent the
5348 * current value of the limit is inflating the total service
5349 * time. If the inflation is below a certain threshold, then bfqq
5350 * is assumed to be suffering from no perceivable loss of its
5351 * service guarantees, and the limit is even tentatively
5352 * increased. If the inflation is above the threshold, then the
5353 * limit is decreased. Due to the lack of any hysteresis, this
5354 * logic makes the limit oscillate even in steady workload
5355 * conditions. Yet we opted for it, because it is fast in reaching
5356 * the best value for the limit, as a function of the current I/O
5357 * workload. To reduce oscillations, this step is disabled for a
5358 * short time interval after the limit happens to be decreased.
5360 * (3) Periodically, after resetting the limit, to make sure that the
5361 * limit eventually drops in case the workload changes. This is
5362 * needed because, after the limit has gone safely up for a
5363 * certain workload, it is impossible to guess whether the
5364 * baseline total service time may have changed, without measuring
5365 * it again without injection. A more effective version of this
5366 * step might be to just sample the baseline, by interrupting
5367 * injection only once, and then to reset/lower the limit only if
5368 * the total service time with the current limit does happen to be
5371 * More details on each step are provided in the comments on the
5372 * pieces of code that implement these steps: the branch handling the
5373 * transition from empty to non empty in bfq_add_request(), the branch
5374 * handling injection in bfq_select_queue(), and the function
5375 * bfq_choose_bfqq_for_injection(). These comments also explain some
5376 * exceptions, made by the injection mechanism in some special cases.
