*
* BFQ is a proportional-share I/O scheduler, with some extra
* low-latency capabilities. BFQ also supports full hierarchical
* scheduling through cgroups. Next paragraphs provide an introduction
* on BFQ inner workings. Details on BFQ benefits, usage and
* limitations can be found in Documentation/block/bfq-iosched.rst.
*
* BFQ is a proportional-share storage-I/O scheduling algorithm based
* on the slice-by-slice service scheme of CFQ. But BFQ assigns
* budgets, measured in number of sectors, to processes instead of
* time slices. The device is not granted to the in-service process
* for a given time slice, but until it has exhausted its assigned
* budget. This change from the time to the service domain enables BFQ
* to distribute the device throughput among processes as desired,
* without any distortion due to throughput fluctuations, or to device
* internal queueing. BFQ uses an ad hoc internal scheduler, called
* B-WF2Q+, to schedule processes according to their budgets. More
* precisely, BFQ schedules queues associated with processes. Each
* process/queue is assigned a user-configurable weight, and B-WF2Q+
* guarantees that each queue receives a fraction of the throughput
* proportional to its weight. Thanks to the accurate policy of
* B-WF2Q+, BFQ can afford to assign high budgets to I/O-bound
* processes issuing sequential requests (to boost the throughput),
* and yet guarantee a low latency to interactive and soft real-time
* applications.
*
* In particular, to provide these low-latency guarantees, BFQ
* explicitly privileges the I/O of two classes of time-sensitive
* applications: interactive and soft real-time. In more detail, BFQ
* behaves this way if the low_latency parameter is set (default
* configuration). This feature enables BFQ to provide applications in
* these classes with a very low latency.
*
* To implement this feature, BFQ constantly tries to detect whether
* the I/O requests in a bfq_queue come from an interactive or a soft
* real-time application. For brevity, in these cases, the queue is
* said to be interactive or soft real-time. In both cases, BFQ
* privileges the service of the queue, over that of non-interactive
* and non-soft-real-time queues. This privileging is performed,
* mainly, by raising the weight of the queue. So, for brevity, we
* call just weight-raising periods the time periods during which a
* queue is privileged, because deemed interactive or soft real-time.
*
* The detection of soft real-time queues/applications is described in
* detail in the comments on the function
* bfq_bfqq_softrt_next_start. On the other hand, the detection of an
* interactive queue works as follows: a queue is deemed interactive
* if it is constantly non empty only for a limited time interval,
* after which it does become empty. The queue may be deemed
* interactive again (for a limited time), if it restarts being
* constantly non empty, provided that this happens only after the
* queue has remained empty for a given minimum idle time.
*
* By default, BFQ computes automatically the above maximum time
* interval, i.e., the time interval after which a constantly
* non-empty queue stops being deemed interactive. Since a queue is
* weight-raised while it is deemed interactive, this maximum time
* interval happens to coincide with the (maximum) duration of the
* weight-raising for interactive queues.
*
* Finally, BFQ also features additional heuristics for
* preserving both a low latency and a high throughput on NCQ-capable,
* rotational or flash-based devices, and to get the job done quickly
* for applications consisting in many I/O-bound processes.
*
* NOTE: if the main or only goal, with a given device, is to achieve
* the maximum-possible throughput at all times, then do switch off
* all low-latency heuristics for that device, by setting low_latency
* to 0.
*
* BFQ is described in [1], where also a reference to the initial,
* more theoretical paper on BFQ can be found. The interested reader
* can find in the latter paper full details on the main algorithm, as
* well as formulas of the guarantees and formal proofs of all the
* properties. With respect to the version of BFQ presented in these
* papers, this implementation adds a few more heuristics, such as the
* ones that guarantee a low latency to interactive and soft real-time
* applications, and a hierarchical extension based on H-WF2Q+.
*
* B-WF2Q+ is based on WF2Q+, which is described in [2], together with
* H-WF2Q+, while the augmented tree used here to implement B-WF2Q+
* with O(log N) complexity derives from the one introduced with EEVDF
* in [3].

* When configured for computing the duration of the weight-raising

* duration = (ref_rate / r) * ref_wr_duration,
* where r is the peak rate of the device, and ref_rate and
* ref_wr_duration are two reference parameters. In particular,
* ref_rate is the peak rate of the reference storage device (see
* below), and ref_wr_duration is about the maximum time needed, with
* BFQ and while reading two files in parallel, to load typical large
* applications on the reference device (see the comments on
* max_service_from_wr below, for more details on how ref_wr_duration
* is obtained). In practice, the slower/faster the device at hand
* is, the more/less it takes to load applications with respect to the
* reference device. Accordingly, the longer/shorter BFQ grants
* weight raising to interactive applications.
*
* BFQ uses two different reference pairs (ref_rate, ref_wr_duration),
* depending on whether the device is rotational or non-rotational.
*
* In the following definitions, ref_rate[0] and ref_wr_duration[0]
* are the reference values for a rotational device, whereas
* ref_rate[1] and ref_wr_duration[1] are the reference values for a
* non-rotational device. The reference rates are not the actual peak
* rates of the devices used as a reference, but slightly lower
* values. The reason for using slightly lower values is that the
* peak-rate estimator tends to yield slightly lower values than the
* actual peak rate (it can yield the actual peak rate only if there
* is only one process doing I/O, and the process does sequential
* I/O).
*
* The reference peak rates are measured in sectors/usec, left-shifted
* by BFQ_RATE_SHIFT.

/*
* BFQ uses the above-detailed, time-based weight-raising mechanism to
* privilege interactive tasks. This mechanism is vulnerable to the
* following false positives: I/O-bound applications that will go on
* doing I/O for much longer than the duration of weight
* raising. These applications have basically no benefit from being
* weight-raised at the beginning of their I/O. On the opposite end,
* while being weight-raised, these applications
* a) unjustly steal throughput to applications that may actually need
* low latency;
* b) make BFQ uselessly perform device idling; device idling results
* in loss of device throughput with most flash-based storage, and may
* increase latencies when used purposelessly.
*
* BFQ tries to reduce these problems, by adopting the following
* countermeasure. To introduce this countermeasure, we need first to
* finish explaining how the duration of weight-raising for
* interactive tasks is computed.
*
* For a bfq_queue deemed as interactive, the duration of weight
* raising is dynamically adjusted, as a function of the estimated
* peak rate of the device, so as to be equal to the time needed to
* execute the 'largest' interactive task we benchmarked so far. By
* largest task, we mean the task for which each involved process has
* to do more I/O than for any of the other tasks we benchmarked. This
* reference interactive task is the start-up of LibreOffice Writer,
* and in this task each process/bfq_queue needs to have at most ~110K
* sectors transferred.
*
* This last piece of information enables BFQ to reduce the actual
* duration of weight-raising for at least one class of I/O-bound
* applications: those doing sequential or quasi-sequential I/O. An
* example is file copy. In fact, once started, the main I/O-bound
* processes of these applications usually consume the above 110K
* sectors in much less time than the processes of an application that
* is starting, because these I/O-bound processes will greedily devote
* almost all their CPU cycles only to their target,
* throughput-friendly I/O operations. This is even more true if BFQ
* happens to be underestimating the device peak rate, and thus
* overestimating the duration of weight raising. But, according to
* our measurements, once transferred 110K sectors, these processes
* have no right to be weight-raised any longer.
*
* Basing on the last consideration, BFQ ends weight-raising for a
* bfq_queue if the latter happens to have received an amount of
* service at least equal to the following constant. The constant is
* set to slightly more than 110K, to have a minimum safety margin.
*
* This early ending of weight-raising reduces the amount of time
* during which interactive false positives cause the two problems
* described at the beginning of these comments.

* If many queues belonging to the same group happen to be created
* shortly after each other, then the processes associated with these
* queues have typically a common goal. In particular, bursts of queue
* creations are usually caused by services or applications that spawn
* many parallel threads/processes. Examples are systemd during boot,
* or git grep. To help these processes get their job done as soon as
* possible, it is usually better to not grant either weight-raising
* or device idling to their queues, unless these queues must be
* protected from the I/O flowing through other active queues.
*
* In this comment we describe, firstly, the reasons why this fact
* holds, and, secondly, the next function, which implements the main
* steps needed to properly mark these queues so that they can then be
* treated in a different way.
*
* The above services or applications benefit mostly from a high
* throughput: the quicker the requests of the activated queues are
* cumulatively served, the sooner the target job of these queues gets
* completed. As a consequence, weight-raising any of these queues,
* which also implies idling the device for it, is almost always
* counterproductive, unless there are other active queues to isolate
* these new queues from. If there no other active queues, then
* weight-raising these new queues just lowers throughput in most
* cases.
*
* On the other hand, a burst of queue creations may be caused also by
* the start of an application that does not consist of a lot of
* parallel I/O-bound threads. In fact, with a complex application,
* several short processes may need to be executed to start-up the
* application. In this respect, to start an application as quickly as
* possible, the best thing to do is in any case to privilege the I/O
* related to the application with respect to all other
* I/O. Therefore, the best strategy to start as quickly as possible
* an application that causes a burst of queue creations is to
* weight-raise all the queues created during the burst. This is the
* exact opposite of the best strategy for the other type of bursts.
*
* In the end, to take the best action for each of the two cases, the
* two types of bursts need to be distinguished. Fortunately, this
* seems relatively easy, by looking at the sizes of the bursts. In
* particular, we found a threshold such that only bursts with a
* larger size than that threshold are apparently caused by
* services or commands such as systemd or git grep. For brevity,
* hereafter we call just 'large' these bursts. BFQ *does not*
* weight-raise queues whose creation occurs in a large burst. In
* addition, for each of these queues BFQ performs or does not perform
* idling depending on which choice boosts the throughput more. The
* exact choice depends on the device and request pattern at
* hand.
*
* Unfortunately, false positives may occur while an interactive task
* is starting (e.g., an application is being started). The
* consequence is that the queues associated with the task do not
* enjoy weight raising as expected. Fortunately these false positives
* are very rare. They typically occur if some service happens to
* start doing I/O exactly when the interactive task starts.
*
* Turning back to the next function, it is invoked only if there are
* no active queues (apart from active queues that would belong to the
* same, possible burst bfqq would belong to), and it implements all
* the steps needed to detect the occurrence of a large burst and to
* properly mark all the queues belonging to it (so that they can then
* be treated in a different way). This goal is achieved by
* maintaining a "burst list" that holds, temporarily, the queues that
* belong to the burst in progress. The list is then used to mark
* these queues as belonging to a large burst if the burst does become
* large. The main steps are the following.
*
* . when the very first queue is created, the queue is inserted into the
* list (as it could be the first queue in a possible burst)
*
* . if the current burst has not yet become large, and a queue Q that does
* not yet belong to the burst is activated shortly after the last time
* at which a new queue entered the burst list, then the function appends
* Q to the burst list
*
* . if, as a consequence of the previous step, the burst size reaches
* the large-burst threshold, then
*
* . all the queues in the burst list are marked as belonging to a
* large burst
*
* . the burst list is deleted; in fact, the burst list already served
* its purpose (keeping temporarily track of the queues in a burst,
* so as to be able to mark them as belonging to a large burst in the
* previous sub-step), and now is not needed any more
*
* . the device enters a large-burst mode
*
* . if a queue Q that does not belong to the burst is created while
* the device is in large-burst mode and shortly after the last time
* at which a queue either entered the burst list or was marked as
* belonging to the current large burst, then Q is immediately marked
* as belonging to a large burst.
*
* . if a queue Q that does not belong to the burst is created a while
* later, i.e., not shortly after, than the last time at which a queue
* either entered the burst list or was marked as belonging to the
* current large burst, then the current burst is deemed as finished and:
*
* . the large-burst mode is reset if set
*
* . the burst list is emptied
*
* . Q is inserted in the burst list, as Q may be the first queue
* in a possible new burst (then the burst list contains just Q
* after this step).

* the chance to possibly preempt the in-service queue, and the reason
* for preempting the in-service queue is to achieve one of the two
* goals below.
*
* 1. Guarantee to bfqq its reserved bandwidth even if bfqq has
* expired because it has remained idle. In particular, bfqq may have
* expired for one of the following two reasons:
*
* - BFQQE_NO_MORE_REQUESTS bfqq did not enjoy any device idling
* and did not make it to issue a new request before its last
* request was served;
*
* - BFQQE_TOO_IDLE bfqq did enjoy device idling, but did not issue
* a new request before the expiration of the idling-time.
*
* Even if bfqq has expired for one of the above reasons, the process
* associated with the queue may be however issuing requests greedily,
* and thus be sensitive to the bandwidth it receives (bfqq may have
* remained idle for other reasons: CPU high load, bfqq not enjoying
* idling, I/O throttling somewhere in the path from the process to
* the I/O scheduler, ...). But if, after every expiration for one of
* the above two reasons, bfqq has to wait for the service of at least
* one full budget of another queue before being served again, then
* bfqq is likely to get a much lower bandwidth or resource time than
* its reserved ones. To address this issue, two countermeasures need
* to be taken.
*
* First, the budget and the timestamps of bfqq need to be updated in
* a special way on bfqq reactivation: they need to be updated as if
* bfqq did not remain idle and did not expire. In fact, if they are
* computed as if bfqq expired and remained idle until reactivation,
* then the process associated with bfqq is treated as if, instead of
* being greedy, it stopped issuing requests when bfqq remained idle,
* and restarts issuing requests only on this reactivation. In other
* words, the scheduler does not help the process recover the "service
* hole" between bfqq expiration and reactivation. As a consequence,
* the process receives a lower bandwidth than its reserved one. In
* contrast, to recover this hole, the budget must be updated as if
* bfqq was not expired at all before this reactivation, i.e., it must
* be set to the value of the remaining budget when bfqq was
* expired. Along the same line, timestamps need to be assigned the
* value they had the last time bfqq was selected for service, i.e.,
* before last expiration. Thus timestamps need to be back-shifted
* with respect to their normal computation (see [1] for more details
* on this tricky aspect).
*
* Secondly, to allow the process to recover the hole, the in-service
* queue must be expired too, to give bfqq the chance to preempt it
* immediately. In fact, if bfqq has to wait for a full budget of the
* in-service queue to be completed, then it may become impossible to
* let the process recover the hole, even if the back-shifted
* timestamps of bfqq are lower than those of the in-service queue. If
* this happens for most or all of the holes, then the process may not
* receive its reserved bandwidth. In this respect, it is worth noting
* that, being the service of outstanding requests unpreemptible, a
* little fraction of the holes may however be unrecoverable, thereby
* causing a little loss of bandwidth.
*
* The last important point is detecting whether bfqq does need this
* bandwidth recovery. In this respect, the next function deems the
* process associated with bfqq greedy, and thus allows it to recover
* the hole, if: 1) the process is waiting for the arrival of a new
* request (which implies that bfqq expired for one of the above two
* reasons), and 2) such a request has arrived soon. The first
* condition is controlled through the flag non_blocking_wait_rq,
* while the second through the flag arrived_in_time. If both
* conditions hold, then the function computes the budget in the
* above-described special way, and signals that the in-service queue
* should be expired. Timestamp back-shifting is done later in
* __bfq_activate_entity.
*
* 2. Reduce latency. Even if timestamps are not backshifted to let
* the process associated with bfqq recover a service hole, bfqq may
* however happen to have, after being (re)activated, a lower finish
* timestamp than the in-service queue. That is, the next budget of
* bfqq may have to be completed before the one of the in-service
* queue. If this is the case, then preempting the in-service queue
* allows this goal to be achieved, apart from the unpreemptible,
* outstanding requests mentioned above.
*
* Unfortunately, regardless of which of the above two goals one wants
* to achieve, service trees need first to be updated to know whether
* the in-service queue must be preempted. To have service trees
* correctly updated, the in-service queue must be expired and
* rescheduled, and bfqq must be scheduled too. This is one of the
* most costly operations (in future versions, the scheduling
* mechanism may be re-designed in such a way to make it possible to
* know whether preemption is needed without needing to update service
* trees). In addition, queue preemptions almost always cause random
* I/O, which may in turn cause loss of throughput. Finally, there may
* even be no in-service queue when the next function is invoked (so,
* no queue to compare timestamps with). Because of these facts, the
* next function adopts the following simple scheme to avoid costly
* operations, too frequent preemptions and too many dependencies on
* the state of the scheduler: it requests the expiration of the
* in-service queue (unconditionally) only for queues that need to
* recover a hole. Then it delegates to other parts of the code the
* responsibility of handling the above case 2.

* bfqq_wants_to_preempt is true. However, if bfqq does not
* carry time-critical I/O, then bfqq's bandwidth is less
* important than that of queues that carry time-critical I/O.
* So, as a further constraint, we consider this case only if
* bfqq is at least as weight-raised, i.e., at least as time
* critical, as the in-service queue.
*
* The second case is that bfqq is in a higher priority class,
* or has a higher weight than the in-service queue. If this
* condition does not hold, we don't care because, even if
* bfqq does not start to be served immediately, the resulting
* delay for bfqq's I/O is however lower or much lower than
* the ideal completion time to be guaranteed to bfqq's I/O.
*
* In both cases, preemption is needed only if, according to
* the timestamps of both bfqq and of the in-service queue,
* bfqq actually is the next queue to serve. So, to reduce
* useless preemptions, the return value of
* next_queue_may_preempt() is considered in the next compound
* condition too. Yet next_queue_may_preempt() just checks a
* simple, necessary condition for bfqq to be the next queue
* to serve. In fact, to evaluate a sufficient condition, the
* timestamps of the in-service queue would need to be
* updated, and this operation is quite costly (see the
* comments on bfq_bfqq_update_budg_for_activation()).
*
* As for throughput, we ask bfq_better_to_idle() whether we
* still need to plug I/O dispatching. If bfq_better_to_idle()
* says no, then plugging is not needed any longer, either to
* boost throughput or to perserve service guarantees. Then
* the best option is to stop plugging I/O, as not doing so
* would certainly lower throughput. We may end up in this
* case if: (1) upon a dispatch attempt, we detected that it
* was better to plug I/O dispatch, and to wait for a new
* request to arrive for the currently in-service queue, but

* the shared queue may inherit such a high weight and, by
* staying almost always active, may force BFQ to perform I/O

* for BFQ to let the device reach a high throughput.
*

* of the two branches is more likely than the other, but to
* have the code path after the following if() executed as
