Merge tag 'for-7.0/block-20260206' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

- Support for batch request processing for ublk, improving the
efficiency of the kernel/ublk server communication. This can yield
nice 7-12% performance improvements

- Support for integrity data for ublk

- Various other ublk improvements and additions, including a ton of
selftests additions and updated

- Move the handling of blk-crypto software fallback from below the
block layer to above it. This reduces the complexity of dealing with
bio splitting

- Series fixing a number of potential deadlocks in blk-mq related to
the queue usage counter and writeback throttling and rq-qos debugfs
handling

- Add an async_depth queue attribute, to resolve a performance
regression that's been around for a qhilw related to the scheduler
depth handling

- Only use task_work for IOPOLL completions on NVMe, if it is necessary
to do so. An earlier fix for an issue resulted in all these
completions being punted to task_work, to guarantee that completions
were only run for a given io_uring ring when it was local to that
ring. With the new changes, we can detect if it's necessary to use
task_work or not, and avoid it if possible.

- rnbd fixes:
- Fix refcount underflow in device unmap path
- Handle PREFLUSH and NOUNMAP flags properly in protocol
- Fix server-side bi_size for special IOs
- Zero response buffer before use
- Fix trace format for flags
- Add .release to rnbd_dev_ktype

- MD pull requests via Yu Kuai
- Fix raid5_run() to return error when log_init() fails
- Fix IO hang with degraded array with llbitmap
- Fix percpu_ref not resurrected on suspend timeout in llbitmap
- Fix GPF in write_page caused by resize race
- Fix NULL pointer dereference in process_metadata_update
- Fix hang when stopping arrays with metadata through dm-raid
- Fix any_working flag handling in raid10_sync_request
- Refactor sync/recovery code path, improve error handling for
badblocks, and remove unused recovery_disabled field
- Consolidate mddev boolean fields into mddev_flags
- Use mempool to allocate stripe_request_ctx and make sure
max_sectors is not less than io_opt in raid5
- Fix return value of mddev_trylock
- Fix memory leak in raid1_run()
- Add Li Nan as mdraid reviewer

- Move phys_vec definitions to the kernel types, mostly in preparation
for some VFIO and RDMA changes

- Improve the speed for secure erase for some devices

- Various little rust updates

- Various other minor fixes, improvements, and cleanups

blk-mq-sched: unify elevators checking for async requests

bfq and mq-deadline consider sync writes as async requests and only
reserve tags for sync reads by async_depth, however, kyber doesn't
consider sync writes as async requests for now.

Consider the case there are lots of dirty pages, and user use fsync to
flush dirty pages. In this case sched_tags can be exhausted by sync writes
and sync reads can stuck waiting for tag. Hence let kyber follow what
mq-deadline and bfq did, and unify async requests checking for all
elevators.

Merge branch 'elevator-switch-6.19' into for-6.19/block

Merge elevator switching improvements from Nilay:

"This patchset reorganizes the elevator switch path used during both
nr_hw_queues update and elv_iosched_store() operations to address a
recently reported lockdep splat [1].

The warning highlights a locking dependency between ->freeze_lock and
->elevator_lock on pcpu_alloc_mutex, triggered when the Kyber scheduler
dynamically allocates its private scheduling data. The fix is to ensure
that such allocations occur outside the locked sections, thus
eliminating the dependency chain.

While working on this, it also became evident that the nr_hw_queue
update code maintains two disjoint xarrays—one for elevator tags and
another for elevator type—both serving the same purpose. Unifying these
into a single elv_change_ctx structure improves clarity and
maintainability.

This series therefore implements five patches:
The first perparatory patch unifies elevator tags and type xarrays. It
combines both xarrays into a single struct elv_change_ctx, simplifying
per-queue elevator state management.

The second patch is aimed to group together all elevator-related
resources that share the same lifetime and as a first step we move the
elevator tags pointer from struct elv_change_ctx into the newly
introduced struct elevator_resources. The subsequent patch extends the
struct elevator_resources to include other elevator-related data.

The third patch introduce ->alloc_sched_data and ->free_sched_data
elevator ops which could be then used to safely allocate and free
scheduler data.

The fourth patch now builds upon the previous patch and starts using
the newly introduced alloc/free sched data methods in the earlier patch
during elevator switch and nr_hw_queue update. And while doing so, it's
ensured that sched data allocation and free happens before we acquire
->freeze_lock and ->elevator_lock thus preventing its dependency on
pcpu_alloc_mutex.

The last patch of this series converts Kyber scheduler to use the new
methods inroduced in the previous patch. It hooks Kyber’s scheduler
data allocation and teardown logic from ->init_sched and ->exit_sched
into the new methods, ensuring memory operations are performed outside
locked sections.

Together, these changes simplify the elevator switch logic and prevent
the reported lockdep splat."

thereby preventing any dependency on pcpu_alloc_mutex.

block: introduce alloc_sched_data and free_sched_data elevator methods

The recent lockdep splat [1] highlights a potential deadlock risk
involving ->elevator_lock and ->freeze_lock dependencies on -pcpu_alloc_
mutex. The trace shows that the issue occurs when the Kyber scheduler
allocates dynamic memory for its elevator data during initialization.

To address this, introduce two new elevator operation callbacks:
->alloc_sched_data and ->free_sched_data. The subsequent patch would
build upon these newly introduced methods to suppress lockdep splat[1].

block: move elevator tags into struct elevator_resources

This patch introduces a new structure, struct elevator_resources, to
group together all elevator-related resources that share the same
lifetime. As a first step, this change moves the elevator tag pointer
from struct elv_change_ctx into the new struct elevator_resources.

Additionally, rename blk_mq_alloc_sched_tags_batch() and
blk_mq_free_sched_tags_batch() to blk_mq_alloc_sched_res_batch() and
blk_mq_free_sched_res_batch(), respectively. Introduce two new wrapper
helpers, blk_mq_alloc_sched_res() and blk_mq_free_sched_res(), around
blk_mq_alloc_sched_tags() and blk_mq_free_sched_tags().

These changes pave the way for consolidating the allocation and freeing
of elevator-specific resources into common helper functions. This
refactoring improves encapsulation and prepares the code for future
extensions, allowing additional elevator-specific data to be added to
struct elevator_resources without cluttering struct elv_change_ctx.

Subsequent patches will extend struct elevator_resources to include
other elevator-related data.

block: unify elevator tags and type xarrays into struct elv_change_ctx

Currently, the nr_hw_queues update path manages two disjoint xarrays —
one for elevator tags and another for elevator type — both used during
elevator switching. Maintaining these two parallel structures for the
same purpose adds unnecessary complexity and potential for mismatched
state.

This patch unifies both xarrays into a single structure, struct
elv_change_ctx, which holds all per-queue elevator change context. A
single xarray, named elv_tbl, now maps each queue (q->id) in a tagset
to its corresponding elv_change_ctx entry, encapsulating the elevator
tags, type and name references.

This unification simplifies the code, improves maintainability, and
clarifies ownership of per-queue elevator state.
