 * 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 next function, invoked after the input queue bfqq switches from
 * idle to busy, updates the budget of bfqq. The function also tells
 * whether the in-service queue should be expired, by returning
 * true. The purpose of expiring the in-service queue is to give bfqq
 * 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.

	 * throughput, it must have many requests enqueued at the same
	 * time. But, in this configuration, the internal scheduling
	 * algorithm of the device does exactly the job of queue
	 * merging: it reorders requests so as to obtain as much as
	 * possible a sequential I/O pattern. As a consequence, with
	 * the workload generated by processes doing interleaved I/O,
	 * the throughput reached by the device is likely to be the
	 * same, with and without queue merging.
	 *
	 * Disabling merging also provides a remarkable benefit in
	 * terms of throughput. Merging tends to make many workloads
	 * artificially more uneven, because of shared queues
	 * remaining non empty for incomparably more time than
	 * non-merged queues. This may accentuate workload
	 * asymmetries. For example, if one of the queues in a set of
	 * merged queues has a higher weight than a normal queue, then
	 * the shared queue may inherit such a high weight and, by
	 * staying almost always active, may force BFQ to perform I/O
	 * plugging most of the time. This evidently makes it harder
	 * for BFQ to let the device reach a high throughput.
	 *
	 * Finally, the likely() macro below is not used because one
	 * of the two branches is more likely than the other, but to
	 * have the code path after the following if() executed as
	 * fast as possible for the case of a non rotational device
	 * with queueing. We want it because this is the fastest kind
	 * of device. On the opposite end, the likely() may lengthen
	 * the execution time of BFQ for the case of slower devices

/*
 * There is a case where idling does not have to be performed for
 * throughput concerns, but to preserve the throughput share of
 * the process associated with bfqq.
 *
 * To introduce this case, we can note that allowing the drive
 * to enqueue more than one request at a time, and hence
 * delegating de facto final scheduling decisions to the
 * drive's internal scheduler, entails loss of control on the
 * actual request service order. In particular, the critical
 * situation is when requests from different processes happen
 * to be present, at the same time, in the internal queue(s)
 * of the drive. In such a situation, the drive, by deciding
 * the service order of the internally-queued requests, does
 * determine also the actual throughput distribution among
 * these processes. But the drive typically has no notion or
 * concern about per-process throughput distribution, and
 * makes its decisions only on a per-request basis. Therefore,
 * the service distribution enforced by the drive's internal
 * scheduler is likely to coincide with the desired throughput
 * distribution only in a completely symmetric, or favorably
 * skewed scenario where:
 * (i-a) each of these processes must get the same throughput as
 *	 the others,
 * (i-b) in case (i-a) does not hold, it holds that the process
 *       associated with bfqq must receive a lower or equal
 *	 throughput than any of the other processes;
 * (ii)  the I/O of each process has the same properties, in
 *       terms of locality (sequential or random), direction
 *       (reads or writes), request sizes, greediness
 *       (from I/O-bound to sporadic), and so on;

 * In fact, in such a scenario, the drive tends to treat the requests
 * of each process in about the same way as the requests of the
 * others, and thus to provide each of these processes with about the
 * same throughput.  This is exactly the desired throughput
 * distribution if (i-a) holds, or, if (i-b) holds instead, this is an
 * even more convenient distribution for (the process associated with)
 * bfqq.
 *
 * In contrast, in any asymmetric or unfavorable scenario, device
 * idling (I/O-dispatch plugging) is certainly needed to guarantee
 * that bfqq receives its assigned fraction of the device throughput
 * (see [1] for details).
 *
 * The problem is that idling may significantly reduce throughput with
 * certain combinations of types of I/O and devices. An important
 * example is sync random I/O on flash storage with command
 * queueing. So, unless bfqq falls in cases where idling also boosts
 * throughput, it is important to check conditions (i-a), i(-b) and
 * (ii) accurately, so as to avoid idling when not strictly needed for
 * service guarantees.
 *
 * Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to thoroughly check
 * condition (ii). And, in case there are active groups, it becomes
 * very difficult to check conditions (i-a) and (i-b) too.  In fact,
 * if there are active groups, then, for conditions (i-a) or (i-b) to
 * become false 'indirectly', it is enough that an active group
 * contains more active processes or sub-groups than some other active
 * group. More precisely, for conditions (i-a) or (i-b) to become
 * false because of such a group, it is not even necessary that the
 * group is (still) active: it is sufficient that, even if the group
 * has become inactive, some of its descendant processes still have
 * some request already dispatched but still waiting for
 * completion. In fact, requests have still to be guaranteed their
 * share of the throughput even after being dispatched. In this
 * respect, it is easy to show that, if a group frequently becomes
 * inactive while still having in-flight requests, and if, when this
 * happens, the group is not considered in the calculation of whether
 * the scenario is asymmetric, then the group may fail to be
 * guaranteed its fair share of the throughput (basically because
 * idling may not be performed for the descendant processes of the
 * group, but it had to be).  We address this issue with the following
 * bi-modal behavior, implemented in the function
 * bfq_asymmetric_scenario().
 *
 * If there are groups with requests waiting for completion
 * (as commented above, some of these groups may even be
 * already inactive), then the scenario is tagged as
 * asymmetric, conservatively, without checking any of the
 * conditions (i-a), (i-b) or (ii). So the device is idled for bfqq.
 * This behavior matches also the fact that groups are created
 * exactly if controlling I/O is a primary concern (to
 * preserve bandwidth and latency guarantees).
 *
 * On the opposite end, if there are no groups with requests waiting
 * for completion, then only conditions (i-a) and (i-b) are actually
 * controlled, i.e., provided that conditions (i-a) or (i-b) holds,
 * idling is not performed, regardless of whether condition (ii)
 * holds.  In other words, only if conditions (i-a) and (i-b) do not
 * hold, then idling is allowed, and the device tends to be prevented
 * from queueing many requests, possibly of several processes. Since
 * there are no groups with requests waiting for completion, then, to
 * control conditions (i-a) and (i-b) it is enough to check just
 * whether all the queues with requests waiting for completion also
 * have the same weight.
 *
 * Not checking condition (ii) evidently exposes bfqq to the
 * risk of getting less throughput than its fair share.
 * However, for queues with the same weight, a further
 * mechanism, preemption, mitigates or even eliminates this
 * problem. And it does so without consequences on overall
 * throughput. This mechanism and its benefits are explained
 * in the next three paragraphs.
 *
 * Even if a queue, say Q, is expired when it remains idle, Q
 * can still preempt the new in-service queue if the next
 * request of Q arrives soon (see the comments on
 * bfq_bfqq_update_budg_for_activation). If all queues and
 * groups have the same weight, this form of preemption,
 * combined with the hole-recovery heuristic described in the
 * comments on function bfq_bfqq_update_budg_for_activation,
 * are enough to preserve a correct bandwidth distribution in
 * the mid term, even without idling. In fact, even if not
 * idling allows the internal queues of the device to contain
 * many requests, and thus to reorder requests, we can rather
 * safely assume that the internal scheduler still preserves a
 * minimum of mid-term fairness.
 *
 * More precisely, this preemption-based, idleless approach
 * provides fairness in terms of IOPS, and not sectors per
 * second. This can be seen with a simple example. Suppose
 * that there are two queues with the same weight, but that
 * the first queue receives requests of 8 sectors, while the
 * second queue receives requests of 1024 sectors. In
 * addition, suppose that each of the two queues contains at
 * most one request at a time, which implies that each queue
 * always remains idle after it is served. Finally, after
 * remaining idle, each queue receives very quickly a new
 * request. It follows that the two queues are served
 * alternatively, preempting each other if needed. This
 * implies that, although both queues have the same weight,
 * the queue with large requests receives a service that is
 * 1024/8 times as high as the service received by the other
 * queue.
 *
 * The motivation for using preemption instead of idling (for
 * queues with the same weight) is that, by not idling,
 * service guarantees are preserved (completely or at least in
 * part) without minimally sacrificing throughput. And, if
 * there is no active group, then the primary expectation for
 * this device is probably a high throughput.
 *
 * We are now left only with explaining the two sub-conditions in the
 * additional compound condition that is checked below for deciding
 * whether the scenario is asymmetric. To explain the first
 * sub-condition, we need to add that the function
 * bfq_asymmetric_scenario checks the weights of only
 * non-weight-raised queues, for efficiency reasons (see comments on
 * bfq_weights_tree_add()). Then the fact that bfqq is weight-raised
 * is checked explicitly here. More precisely, the compound condition
 * below takes into account also the fact that, even if bfqq is being
 * weight-raised, the scenario is still symmetric if all queues with
 * requests waiting for completion happen to be
 * weight-raised. Actually, we should be even more precise here, and
 * differentiate between interactive weight raising and soft real-time
 * weight raising.
 *
 * The second sub-condition checked in the compound condition is
 * whether there is a fair amount of already in-flight I/O not
 * belonging to bfqq. If so, I/O dispatching is to be plugged, for the
 * following reason. The drive may decide to serve in-flight
 * non-bfqq's I/O requests before bfqq's ones, thereby delaying the
 * arrival of new I/O requests for bfqq (recall that bfqq is sync). If
 * I/O-dispatching is not plugged, then, while bfqq remains empty, a
 * basically uncontrolled amount of I/O from other queues may be
 * dispatched too, possibly causing the service of bfqq's I/O to be
 * delayed even longer in the drive. This problem gets more and more
 * serious as the speed and the queue depth of the drive grow,
 * because, as these two quantities grow, the probability to find no
 * queue busy but many requests in flight grows too. By contrast,
 * plugging I/O dispatching minimizes the delay induced by already
 * in-flight I/O, and enables bfqq to recover the bandwidth it may
 * lose because of this delay.
 *
 * As a side note, it is worth considering that the above
 * device-idling countermeasures may however fail in the following
 * unlucky scenario: if I/O-dispatch plugging is (correctly) disabled
 * in a time period during which all symmetry sub-conditions hold, and
 * therefore the device is allowed to enqueue many requests, but at
 * some later point in time some sub-condition stops to hold, then it
 * may become impossible to make requests be served in the desired
 * order until all the requests already queued in the device have been
 * served. The last sub-condition commented above somewhat mitigates
 * this problem for weight-raised queues.
