vdc_blk_queue_start() may be called from irq context, so we can't run
queue via blk_mq_start_hw_queues() since we never allow to run queue
from irq context. Use blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues(q, true) to fix
this issue.

Reverting commit 8ccb8cb1892b ("swim3: convert to blk-mq") resolves the
problem.

That commit added a struct blk_mq_tag_set to struct floppy_state and
initialized it with a blk_mq_init_sq_queue() call. Unfortunately, there
is a memset() in swim3_add_device() that subsequently clears the
floppy_state struct. That means fs-&gt;tag_set-&gt;ops is a NULL pointer, and
it gets dereferenced by blk_mq_free_rqs() which gets called in the
request_irq() error path. Move the memset() to fix this bug.

BTW, the request_irq() failure for the left mediabay floppy (fd1) is not
a regression. I don't know why it happens. The right media bay floppy
(fd0) works fine however.

When the block device is opened with FMODE_EXCL, ref_count is set to -1.
This value doesn't get reset when the device is closed which means the
device cannot be opened again. Fix this by checking for refcount &lt;= 0
in the release method.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
 "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)

   - sx8 conversion to per-host tag sets (Christoph)

   - IO priority improvements (Damien)

   - mq-deadline zoned fix (Damien)

   - Ref count blkcg series (Dennis)

   - Lots of blk-mq improvements and speedups (me)

   - sbitmap scalability improvements (me)

   - Make core inflight IO accounting per-cpu (Mikulas)

   - Export timeout setting in sysfs (Weiping)

   - Cleanup the direct issue path (Jianchao)

   - Export blk-wbt internals in block debugfs for easier debugging
     (Ming)

   - Lots of other fixes and improvements"

<title>zram: writeback throttle</title>
<updated>2018-12-28T20:11:49+00:00</updated>

<content type='text'>
If there are lots of write IO with flash device, it could have a
wearout problem of storage. To overcome the problem, admin needs
to design write limitation to guarantee flash health
for entire product life.

This patch creates a new knob "writeback_limit" for zram.

writeback_limit's default value is 0 so that it doesn't limit
any writeback. If admin want to measure writeback count in a
certain period, he could know it via /sys/block/zram0/bd_stat's
3rd column.

If admin want to limit writeback as per-day 400M, he could do it
like below.

	MB_SHIFT=20
	4K_SHIFT=12
	echo $((400&lt;&lt;MB_SHIFT&gt;&gt;4K_SHIFT)) &gt; \
		/sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit.

If admin want to allow further write again, he could do it like below

	echo 0 &gt; /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit

If admin want to see remaining writeback budget,

	cat /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit

The writeback_limit count will reset whenever you reset zram (e.g., system
reboot, echo 1 &gt; /sys/block/zramX/reset) so keeping how many of writeback
happened until you reset the zram to allocate extra writeback budget in
next setting is user's job.
