[PATCH 02/11] blk-throttle: Fix that bps of child could exceed bps limited in parent

From: Kemeng Shi
Date: Wed Nov 23 2022 - 01:04:27 EST


Consider situation as following (on the default hierarchy):
HDD
|
root (bps limit: 4k)
|
child (bps limit :8k)
|
fio bs=8k
Rate of fio is supposed to be 4k, but result is 8k. Reason is as
following:
Size of single IO from fio is larger than bytes allowed in one
throtl_slice in child, so IOs are always queued in child group first.
When queued IOs in child are dispatched to parent group, BIO_BPS_THROTTLED
is set and these IOs will not be limited by tg_within_bps_limit anymore.
Fix this by:
1. Limit IO with BIO_BPS_THROTTLED flag in tg_within_bps_limit.
2. Ignore BIO_BPS_THROTTLED flag when accouting in throtl_charge_bio.
There changes have no influence on situation which is not on the default
hierarchy as each group is a single root group without parent.
