block, bfq: handle bursts of queue activations
Many popular I/O-intensive services or applications spawn or
reactivate many parallel threads/processes during short time
intervals. Examples are systemd during boot or git grep. These
services or applications benefit mostly from a high throughput: the
quicker the I/O generated by their processes is cumulatively served,
the sooner the target job of these services or applications gets
completed. As a consequence, it is almost always counterproductive to
weight-raise any of the queues associated to the processes of these
services or applications: in most cases it would just lower the
throughput, mainly because weight-raising also implies device idling.
To address this issue, an I/O scheduler needs, first, to detect which
queues are associated with these services or applications. In this
respect, we have that, from the I/O-scheduler standpoint, these
services or applications cause bursts of activations, i.e.,
activations of different queues occurring shortly after each
other. However, a shorter burst of activations may be caused also by
the start of an application that does not consist in a lot of parallel
I/O-bound threads (see the comments on the function bfq_handle_burst
for details).
In view of these facts, this commit introduces:
1) an heuristic to detect (only) bursts of queue activations caused by
services or applications consisting in many parallel I/O-bound
threads;
2) the prevention of device idling and weight-raising for the queues
belonging to these bursts.

+ * If many queues belonging to the same group happen to be created

+ * 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.
+ *
+ * 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. In most cases it just lowers throughput.
+ *
+ * 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 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).
