[v11,2/9] block: Add copy offload support infrastructure

Commit Message

Nitesh Shetty May 22, 2023, 10:41 a.m. UTC

Introduce blkdev_issue_copy which takes similar arguments as
copy_file_range and performs copy offload between two bdevs.
Introduce REQ_COPY copy offload operation flag. Create a read-write
bio pair with a token as payload and submitted to the device in order.
Read request populates token with source specific information which
is then passed with write request.
This design is courtesy Mikulas Patocka's token based copy

Larger copy will be divided, based on max_copy_sectors limit.

I'd have thought you'd return ssize_t here.  If the two block devices
are loopmounted xfs files, we can certainly reflink "copy" more than 2GB
at a time.

Sure we will add this to make API future proof, but at present we do have
a limit for copy. COPY_MAX_BYTES(=128MB) at present. This limit is based
on our internal testing, we have plans to increase/remove with this
limit in future phases.

Thank you,

Why is PAGE_SIZE the right size for 'token'?  That seems quite unlikely.
I could understand it being SECTOR_SIZE or something that's dependent on
the device, but I cannot fathom it being dependent on the host' page size.

This has nothing to do with block device at this point, merely a place
holder to store information about copy offload such as src sectors, len.
Token will be typecasted by driver to get copy info.
SECTOR_SIZE also should work in this case, will update in next version.

Suppose the first call to "token = alloc_page()" fails (and
cio->refcount == 0), isn't "cio" going to be leaked here?
