现在我们块设备也有了,队列也有了,要提交请求也就可以开始提交了.那就让我们来研究一下如何提交请求如何处理请求吧.不过哥们儿有言在先,出错处理的那些乱七八糟的代码咱们就不理睬了.
仍然以scsi磁盘举例,最初scsi这边发送的是scsi命令,可是从block走就得变成request,然而走到usb-storage那边又得变回scsi命令.换言之,这整个过程scsi命令要变两次身.
首先让我们从sd那边很常用的一个函数开始,我们来看scsi命令是如何在光天化日之下被偷梁换柱的变成了request,这个函数就是scsi_execute_req().来自drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:
216 int scsi_execute_req(struct scsi_device *sdev, const unsigned char *cmd,
217 int data_direction, void *buffer, unsigned bufflen,
218 struct scsi_sense_hdr *sshdr, int timeout, int retries)
219 {
220 char *sense = NULL;
221 int result;
222
223 if (sshdr) {
224 sense = kzalloc(SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, GFP_NOIO);
225 if (!sense)
226 return DRIVER_ERROR << 24;
227 }
228 result = scsi_execute(sdev, cmd, data_direction, buffer, bufflen,
229 sense, timeout, retries, 0);
230 if (sshdr)
231 scsi_normalize_sense(sense, SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, sshdr);
232
233 kfree(sense);
234 return result;
235 }
这里面最需要关注的就是一个函数,scsi_execute(),来自同一个文件.
164 /**
165 * scsi_execute - insert request and wait for the result
166 * @sdev: scsi device
167 * @cmd: scsi command
168 * @data_direction: data direction
169 * @buffer: data buffer
170 * @bufflen: len of buffer
171 * @sense: optional sense buffer
172 * @timeout: request timeout in seconds
173 * @retries: number of times to retry request
174 * @flags: or into request flags;
175 *
176 * returns the req->errors value which is the scsi_cmnd result
177 * field.
178 **/
179 int scsi_execute(struct scsi_device *sdev, const unsigned char *cmd,
180 int data_direction, void *buffer, unsigned bufflen,
181 unsigned char *sense, int timeout, int retries, int flags)
182 {
183 struct request *req;
184 int write = (data_direction == DMA_TO_DEVICE);
185 int ret = DRIVER_ERROR << 24;
186
187 req = blk_get_request(sdev->request_queue, write, __GFP_WAIT);
188
189 if (bufflen && blk_rq_map_kern(sdev->request_queue, req,
190 buffer, bufflen, __GFP_WAIT))
191 goto out;
192
193 req->cmd_len = COMMAND_SIZE(cmd[0]);
194 memcpy(req->cmd, cmd, req->cmd_len);
195 req->sense = sense;
196 req->sense_len = 0;
197 req->retries = retries;
198 req->timeout = timeout;
199 req->cmd_type = REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC;
200 req->cmd_flags |= flags | REQ_QUIET | REQ_PREEMPT;
201
202 /*
203 * head injection *required* here otherwise quiesce won't work
204 */
205 blk_execute_rq(req->q, NULL, req, 1);
206
207 ret = req->errors;
208 out:
209 blk_put_request(req);
210
211 return ret;
212 }
首先被调用的是blk_get_request.来自block/ll_rw_blk.c:
2215 struct request *blk_get_request(request_queue_t *q, int rw, gfp_t gfp_mask)
2216 {
2217 struct request *rq;
2218
2219 BUG_ON(rw != READ && rw != WRITE);
2220
2221 spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock);
2222 if (gfp_mask & __GFP_WAIT) {
2223 rq = get_request_wait(q, rw, NULL);
2224 } else {
2225 rq = get_request(q, rw, NULL, gfp_mask);
2226 if (!rq)
2227 spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock);
2228 }
2229 /* q->queue_lock is unlocked at this point */
2230
2231 return rq;
2232 }
注意到我们调用这个函数的时候,第二个参数确实是__GFP_WAIT.所以2223行会被执行.get_request_wait()来自同一个文件:
2173 static struct request *get_request_wait(request_queue_t *q, int rw_flags,
2174 struct bio *bio)
2175 {
2176 const int rw = rw_flags & 0x01;
2177 struct request *rq;
2178
2179 rq = get_request(q, rw_flags, bio, GFP_NOIO);
2180 while (!rq) {
2181 DEFINE_WAIT(wait);
2182 struct request_list *rl = &q->rq;
2183
2184 prepare_to_wait_exclusive(&rl->wait[rw], &wait,
2185 TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
2186
2187 rq = get_request(q, rw_flags, bio, GFP_NOIO);
2188
2189 if (!rq) {
2190 struct io_context *ioc;
2191
2192 blk_add_trace_generic(q, bio, rw, BLK_TA_SLEEPRQ);
2193
2194 __generic_unplug_device(q);
2195 spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock);
2196 io_schedule();
2197
2198 /*
2199 * After sleeping, we become a "batching" process and
2200 * will be able to allocate at least one request, and
2201 * up to a big batch of them for a small period time.
2202 * See ioc_batching, ioc_set_batching
2203 */
2204 -3B ioc = current_io_context(GFP_NOIO, q->node);
2205 ioc_set_batching(q, ioc);
2206
2207 spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock);
2208 }
2209 finish_wait(&rl->wait[rw], &wait);
2210 }
2211
2212 return rq;
2213 }
而真正被调用的又是get_request(),仍然是来自同一个文件.
2063 /*
2064 * Get a free request, queue_lock must be held.
2065 * Returns NULL on failure, with queue_lock held.
2066 * Returns !NULL on success, with queue_lock *not held*.

2069 struct bio *bio, gfp_t gfp_mask)

2071 struct request *rq = NULL;

2075 int may_queue, priv;
2076

2157 if (ioc_batching(q, ioc))
2158 ioc->nr_batch_requests--;
2159
2160 rq_init(q, rq);
2161
2162 blk_add_trace_generic(q, bio, rw, BLK_TA_GETRQ);
2163 out:
2164 return rq;
2165 }
这个elv_may_queue来自block/elevator.c:
848 int elv_may_queue(request_queue_t *q, int rw)
849 {
850 elevator_t *e = q->elevator;
851
852 if (e->ops->elevator_may_queue_fn)
853 return e->ops->elevator_may_queue_fn(q, rw);
854
855 return ELV_MQUEUE_MAY;
856 }
属于我们的那个elevator_t结构体变量是当初我们在elevator_init()中调用elevator_alloc()申请的.它的ops显然是和具体我们采用了哪种电梯有关系的.这里我们为了简便起见,做一个最不要脸的选择,选择”noop”,这种最简单最原始的机制.再一次贴出它的elevator_type.
87 static struct elevator_type elevator_noop = {
88 .ops = {
89 .elevator_merge_req_fn = noop_merged_requests,
90 .elevator_dispatch_fn = noop_dispatch,
91 .elevator_add_req_fn = noop_add_request,
92 .elevator_queue_empty_fn = noop_queue_empty,
93 .elevator_former_req_fn = ~oop_former_request,
94 .elevator_latter_req_fn = noop_latter_request,
95 .elevator_init_fn = noop_init_queue,
96 .elevator_exit_fn = noop_exit_queue,
97 },
98 .elevator_name = "noop",
99 .elevator_owner = THIS_MODULE,
100 };
是不是觉得很开心. 对于我们选择的这种noop的电梯,elevator_may_queue_fn根本就没有定义哎.虽然我们这样做很无耻,但是谁叫我们不幸生在现在的中国呢?只要我们够作践,够胆大,够无耻,够疯狂,所谓的道德底线不是”大底”,重心可以下移,完全有向下突破的机会.
带着一个返回值ELV_MQUEUE_MAY,我们返回到get_request()中来.rl又是什么呢?2072行我们让它指向了q->rq.在这样一个危急关头,我不得不搬出一个复杂的结构体了,它就是request_queue,或者叫request_queue_t,定义于include/linux/blkdev.h:
38 struct request_queue;

这里我们看到了rq其实是struct request_list结构体变量.这个结构体定义于同一个文件.
131 struct request_list {
132 int count[2];
133 int starved[2];
134 int elvpriv;
135 mempool_t *rq_pool;
136 wait_queue_head_t wait[2];
137 };
不过这些我们现在都不想看,我们想看的只有其中的几个函数,第一个是2125行blk_alloc_request().来自ll_rw_blk.c:
1970 static struct request *
1971 blk_alloc_request(request_queue_t *q, int rw, int priv, gfp_t gfp_mask)
1972 {
1973 struct request *rq = mempool_alloc(q->rq.rq_pool, gfp_mask);
1974
1975 if (!rq)
1976 return NULL;
1977
1978 /*
1979 * first three bits are identical in rq->cmd_flags and bio->bi_rw,
1980 * see bio.h and blkdev.h
1981 */
1982 rq->cmd_flags = rw | REQ_ALLOCED;
1983
1984 if (priv) {
1985 if (unlikely(elv_set_request(q, rq, gfp_mask))) {
1986 mempool_free(rq, q->rq.rq_pool);
1987 return NULL;
1988 }
1989 rq->cmd_flags |= REQ_ELVPRIV;
1990 }
1991
1992 return rq;
1993 }
其它我们不懂没有关系,至少我们从1972行可以看出这里申请了一个struct request的结构体指针,换句话说,此前,我们已经有了请求队列,但是没有实质性的元素,从这一刻起,我们有了一个真正的request.虽然现在还没有进入到队伍中去,但这只是早晚的事儿了.
下一个rq_init().
238 static void rq_init(request_queue_t *q, struct request *rq)
239 {
240 INIT_LIST_HEAD(&rq->queuelist);
241 INIT_LIST_HEAD(&rq->donelist);
242
243 rq->errors = 0;
244 rq->bio = rq->biotail = NULL;
245 INIT_HLIST_NODE(&rq->hash);
246 RB_CLEAR_NODE(&rq->rb_node);
247 rq->ioprio = 0;
249 rq->ref_count = 1;
250 rq->q = q;
251 rq->special = NULL;
252 rq->data_len = 0;
253 rq->data = NULL;
254 rq->nr_phys_segments = 0;
255 rq->sense = NULL;
256 rq->end_io = NULL;
257 rq->end_io_data = NULL;
258 rq->completion_data = NULL;
259 }
这个函数在干什么不用我说,浦东金杨新村卖麻辣烫的大妈都知道,对刚申请的rq进行初始化.
然后,get_request()就开开心心的返回了,正常情况下,get_request_wait()也会跟着返回,再接着,blk_get_request()也就返回了.我们也带着申请好初始化好的req回到scsi_execute()中去,而接下来一段代码就是我们最关心的,对req的真正的赋值.比如req->cmd_len,req->cmd等等,就是这样被赋上的.换言之,我们的scsi命令就是这样被request拖下水的,从此它们之间不再是以前那种”水留不住落花的漂泊,落花走不进水的世界”的关系,而是沦落到了一荣俱荣一损俱损狼狈为奸的关系.
至此,完成了第一次变身,从scsi命令到request的变身.
