2016-07-20block: get rid of bio_rw and READAChristoph Hellwig1-6/+6
These two are confusing leftover of the old world order, combining values of the REQ_OP_ and REQ_ namespaces. For callers that don't special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_ values makes more sense.

2016-06-27fs: export __block_write_full_pageBenjamin Marzinski1-1/+2
gfs2 needs to be able to skip the check to see if a page is outside of the file size when writing it out. gfs2 can get into a situation where it needs to flush its in-memory log to disk while a truncate is in progress. If the file being trucated has data journaling enabled, it is possible that there are data blocks in the log that are past the end of the file. gfs can't finish the log flush without either writing these blocks out or revoking them. Otherwise, if the node crashed, it could overwrite subsequent changes made by other nodes in the cluster when it's journal was replayed. Unfortunately, there is no way to add log entries to the log during a flush. So gfs2 simply writes out the page instead. This situation can only occur when the truncate code still has the file locked exclusively, and hasn't marked this block as free in the metadata (which happens later in truc_dealloc). After gfs2 writes this page out, the truncation code will shortly invalidate it and write out any revokes if necessary. In order to make this work, gfs2 needs to be able to skip the check for writes outside the file size. Since the check exists in block_write_full_page, this patch exports __block_write_full_page, which doesn't have the check.

2016-06-21fs: introduce iomap infrastructureChristoph Hellwig1-5/+71
Add infrastructure for multipage buffered writes. This is implemented using an main iterator that applies an actor function to a range that can be written. This infrastucture is used to implement a buffered write helper, one to zero file ranges and one to implement the ->page_mkwrite VM operations. All of them borrow a fair amount of code from fs/buffers. for now by using an internal version of __block_write_begin that gets passed an iomap and builds the corresponding buffer head. The file system is gets a set of paired ->iomap_begin and ->iomap_end calls which allow it to map/reserve a range and get a notification once the write code is finished with it.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov1-50/+50
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-03-15mm: memcontrol: generalize locking for the page->mem_cgroup bindingJohannes Weiner1-7/+7
These patches tag the page cache radix tree eviction entries with the memcg an evicted page belonged to, thus making per-cgroup LRU reclaim work properly and be as adaptive to new cache workingsets as global reclaim already is. This should have been part of the original thrash detection patch series, but was deferred due to the complexity of those patches. This patch (of 5): So far the only sites that needed to exclude charge migration to stabilize page->mem_cgroup have been per-cgroup page statistics, hence the name mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(). But per-cgroup thrash detection will add another site that needs to ensure page->mem_cgroup lifetime. Rename these locking functions to the more generic lock_page_memcg() and unlock_page_memcg(). Since charge migration is a cgroup1 feature only, we might be able to delete it at some point, and these now easy to identify locking sites along with it.

2015-07-29block: add a bi_error field to struct bioChristoph Hellwig1-2/+2
Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO: (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds of error returns. So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

2015-06-02writeback: implement foreign cgroup inode detectionTejun Heo1-1/+3
As concurrent write sharing of an inode is expected to be very rare and memcg only tracks page ownership on first-use basis severely confining the usefulness of such sharing, cgroup writeback tracks ownership per-inode. While the support for concurrent write sharing of an inode is deemed unnecessary, an inode being written to by different cgroups at different points in time is a lot more common, and, more importantly, charging only by first-use can too readily lead to grossly incorrect behaviors (single foreign page can lead to gigabytes of writeback to be incorrectly attributed). To resolve this issue, cgroup writeback detects the majority dirtier of an inode and will transfer the ownership to it. To avoid unnnecessary oscillation, the detection mechanism keeps track of history and gives out the switch verdict only if the foreign usage pattern is stable over a certain amount of time and/or writeback attempts. The detection mechanism has fairly low space and computation overhead. It adds 8 bytes to struct inode (one int and two u16's) and minimal amount of calculation per IO. The detection mechanism converges to the correct answer usually in several seconds of IO time when there's a clear majority dirtier. Even when there isn't, it can reach an acceptable answer fairly quickly under most circumstances. Please see wb_detach_inode() for more details. This patch only implements detection. Following patches will implement actual switching. v2: wbc_account_io() now checks whether the wbc is associated with a wb before dereferencing it. This can happen when pageout() is writing pages directly without going through the usual writeback path. As pageout() path is single-threaded, we don't want it to be blocked behind a slow cgroup and ultimately want it to delegate actual writing to the usual writeback path.

2015-06-02writeback: make writeback_control track the inode being written backTejun Heo1-13/+12
Currently, for cgroup writeback, the IO submission paths directly associate the bio's with the blkcg from inode_to_wb_blkcg_css(); however, it'd be necessary to keep more writeback context to implement foreign inode writeback detection. wbc (writeback_control) is the natural fit for the extra context - it persists throughout the writeback of each inode and is passed all the way down to IO submission paths. This patch adds wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode(), wbc_detach_inode(), and wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode() which are used to associate wbc with the inode being written back. IO submission paths now use wbc_init_bio() instead of directly associating bio's with blkcg themselves. This leaves inode_to_wb_blkcg_css() w/o any user. The function is removed. wbc currently only tracks the associated wb (bdi_writeback). Future patches will add more for foreign inode detection. The association is established under i_lock which will be depended upon when migrating foreign inodes to other wb's. As currently, once established, inode to wb association never changes, going through wbc when initializing bio's doesn't cause any behavior changes. v2: submit_blk_blkcg() now checks whether the wbc is associated with a wb before dereferencing it. This can happen when pageout() is writing pages directly without going through the usual writeback path. As pageout() path is single-threaded, we don't want it to be blocked behind a slow cgroup and ultimately want it to delegate actual writing to the usual writeback path.

2015-06-02memcg: add per cgroup dirty page accountingGreg Thelen1-7/+27
When modifying PG_Dirty on cached file pages, update the new MEM_CGROUP_STAT_DIRTY counter. This is done in the same places where global NR_FILE_DIRTY is managed. The new memcg stat is visible in the per memcg memory.stat cgroupfs file. The most recent past attempt at this was http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cgroups/8632 The new accounting supports future efforts to add per cgroup dirty page throttling and writeback. It also helps an administrator break down a container's memory usage and provides evidence to understand memcg oom kills (the new dirty count is included in memcg oom kill messages). The ability to move page accounting between memcg (memory.move_charge_at_immigrate) makes this accounting more complicated than the global counter. The existing mem_cgroup_{begin,end}_page_stat() lock is used to serialize move accounting with stat updates. Typical update operation: memcg = mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(page) if (TestSetPageDirty()) { [...] mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(memcg) } mem_cgroup_end_page_stat(memcg) Summary of mem_cgroup_end_page_stat() overhead: - Without CONFIG_MEMCG it's a no-op - With CONFIG_MEMCG and no inter memcg task movement, it's just rcu_read_lock() - With CONFIG_MEMCG and inter memcg task movement, it's rcu_read_lock() + spin_lock_irqsave() A memcg parameter is added to several routines because their callers now grab mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() which returns the memcg later needed by for mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(). Because mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() may disable interrupts, some adjustments are needed: - move __mark_inode_dirty() from __set_page_dirty() to its caller. __mark_inode_dirty() locking does not want interrupts disabled. - use spin_lock_irqsave(tree_lock) rather than spin_lock_irq() in __delete_from_page_cache(), replace_page_cache_page(), invalidate_complete_page2(), and __remove_mapping(). text data bss dec hex filename 8925147 1774832 1785856 12485835 be84cb vmlinux-!CONFIG_MEMCG-before 8925339 1774832 1785856 12486027 be858b vmlinux-!CONFIG_MEMCG-after +192 text bytes 8965977 1784992 1785856 12536825 bf4bf9 vmlinux-CONFIG_MEMCG-before 8966750 1784992 1785856 12537598 bf4efe vmlinux-CONFIG_MEMCG-after +773 text bytes Performance tests run on v4.0-rc1-36-g4f671fe2f952.

2015-06-02page_writeback: revive cancel_dirty_page() in a restricted formTejun Heo1-2/+2
cancel_dirty_page() had some issues and b9ea25152e56 ("page_writeback: clean up mess around cancel_dirty_page()") replaced it with account_page_cleaned() which makes the caller responsible for clearing the dirty bit; unfortunately, the planned changes for cgroup writeback support requires synchronization between dirty bit manipulation and stat updates. While we can open-code such synchronization in each account_page_cleaned() callsite, that's gonna be unnecessarily awkward and verbose. This patch revives cancel_dirty_page() but in a more restricted form. All it does is TestClearPageDirty() followed by account_page_cleaned() invocation if the page was dirty. This helper covers all account_page_cleaned() usages except for __delete_from_page_cache() which is a special case anyway and left alone. As this leaves no module user for account_page_cleaned(), EXPORT_SYMBOL() is dropped from it. This patch just revives cancel_dirty_page() as a trivial wrapper to replace equivalent usages and doesn't introduce any functional changes.

2015-04-14page_writeback: clean up mess around cancel_dirty_page()Konstantin Khlebnikov1-2/+2
This patch replaces cancel_dirty_page() with a helper function account_page_cleaned() which only updates counters. It's called from truncate_complete_page() and from try_to_free_buffers() (hack for ext3). Page is locked in both cases, page-lock protects against concurrent dirtiers: see commit 2d6d7f982846 ("mm: protect set_page_dirty() from ongoing truncation"). Delete_from_page_cache() shouldn't be called for dirty pages, they must be handled by caller (either written or truncated). This patch treats final dirty accounting fixup at the end of __delete_from_page_cache() as a debug check and adds WARN_ON_ONCE() around it. If something removes dirty pages without proper handling that might be a bug and unwritten data might be lost. Hugetlbfs has no dirty pages accounting, ClearPageDirty() is enough here. cancel_dirty_page() in nfs_wb_page_cancel() is redundant. This is helper for nfs_invalidate_page() and it's called only in case complete invalidation. The mess was started in v2.6.20 after commits 46d2277c796f ("Clean up and make try_to_free_buffers() not race with dirty pages") and 3e67c0987d75 ("truncate: clear page dirtiness before running try_to_free_buffers()") first was reverted right in v2.6.20 in commit ecdfc9787fe5 ("Resurrect 'try_to_free_buffers()' VM hackery"), second in v2.6.25 commit a2b345642f53 ("Fix dirty page accounting leak with ext3 data=journal"). Custom fixes were introduced between these points. NFS in v2.6.23, commit 1b3b4a1a2deb ("NFS: Fix a write request leak in nfs_invalidate_page()"). Kludge in __delete_from_page_cache() in v2.6.24, commit 3a6927906f1b ("Do dirty page accounting when removing a page from the page cache"). Since v2.6.25 all of them are redundant.

2014-10-21fs: clarify rate limit suppressed buffer I/O errorsRobert Elliott1-16/+7
When quiet_error applies rate limiting to buffer_io_error calls, what the they apply to is unclear because the name is so generic, particularly if the messages are interleaved with others: [ 1936.063572] quiet_error: 664293 callbacks suppressed [ 1936.065297] Buffer I/O error on dev sdr, logical block 257429952, lost async page write [ 1936.067814] Buffer I/O error on dev sdr, logical block 257429953, lost async page write Also, the function uses printk_ratelimit(), although printk.h includes a comment advising "Please don't use... Instead use printk_ratelimited()." Change buffer_io_error to check the BH_Quiet bit itself, drop the printk_ratelimit call, and print using printk_ratelimited.

2014-10-14fs: check bh blocknr earlier when searching lruZach Brown1-2/+2
It's very common for the buffer heads in the lru to have different block numbers. By comparing the blocknr before the bdev and size we can reduce the cost of searching in the very common case where all the entries have the same bdev and size. In quick hot cache cycle counting tests on a single fs workstation this cut the cost of a miss by about 20%. A diff of the disassembly shows the reordering of the bdev and blocknr comparisons. This is in such a tiny loop that skipping one comparison is a meaningful portion of the total work being done: 1628: 83 c1 01 add $0x1,%ecx 162b: 83 f9 08 cmp $0x8,%ecx 162e: 74 60 je 1690 <__find_get_block+0xa0> 1630: 89 c8 mov %ecx,%eax 1632: 65 4c 8b 04 c5 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(,%rax,8),%r8 1639: 00 00 163b: 4d 85 c0 test %r8,%r8 163e: 4c 89 c3 mov %r8,%rbx 1641: 74 e5 je 1628 <__find_get_block+0x38> - 1643: 4d 3b 68 30 cmp 0x30(%r8),%r13 + 1643: 4d 3b 68 18 cmp 0x18(%r8),%r13 1647: 75 df jne 1628 <__find_get_block+0x38> - 1649: 4d 3b 60 18 cmp 0x18(%r8),%r12 + 1649: 4d 3b 60 30 cmp 0x30(%r8),%r12 164d: 75 d9 jne 1628 <__find_get_block+0x38> 164f: 49 39 50 20 cmp %rdx,0x20(%r8) 1653: 75 d3 jne 1628 <__find_get_block+0x38> Signed-off-by: Zach Brown <zab@zabbo.net> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Increase the buffer-head per-CPU LRU size to allow efficient filesystem operations that access many blocks for each transaction. For example, creating a file in a large ext4 directory with quota enabled will access multiple buffer heads and will overflow the LRU at the default 8-block LRU size: * parent directory inode table block (ctime, nlinks for subdirs) * new inode bitmap * inode table block * 2 quota blocks * directory leaf block (not reused, but pollutes one cache entry) * 2 levels htree blocks (only one is reused, other pollutes cache) * 2 levels indirect/index blocks (only one is reused) The buffer-head per-CPU LRU size is raised to 16, as it shows in metadata performance benchmarks up to 10% gain for create, 4% for lookup and 7% for destroy.

Due to the "seek" parameter, dd attempted to extend the file and became stuck doing so - the only possibility was to reset the machine or wait many hours until the filesystem runs out of space and cont_expand_zero fails.

2014-10-01vfs: fix data corruption when blocksize < pagesize for mmaped dataJan Kara1-0/+3
->page_mkwrite() is used by filesystems to allocate blocks under a page which is becoming writeably mmapped in some process' address space. This allows a filesystem to return a page fault if there is not enough space available, user exceeds quota or similar problem happens, rather than silently discarding data later when writepage is called. However VFS fails to call ->page_mkwrite() in all the cases where filesystems need it when blocksize < pagesize. For example when blocksize = 1024, pagesize = 4096 the following is problematic: ftruncate(fd, 0); pwrite(fd, buf, 1024, 0); map = mmap(NULL, 1024, PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); map[0] = 'a'; ----> page_mkwrite() for index 0 is called ftruncate(fd, 10000); /* or even pwrite(fd, buf, 1, 10000) */ mremap(map, 1024, 10000, 0); map[4095] = 'a'; ----> no page_mkwrite() called At the moment ->page_mkwrite() is called, filesystem can allocate only one block for the page because i_size == 1024. Otherwise it would create blocks beyond i_size which is generally undesirable. But later at ->writepage() time, we also need to store data at offset 4095 but we don't have block allocated for it. This patch introduces a helper function filesystems can use to have ->page_mkwrite() called at all the necessary moments.

2014-09-22Fix nasty 32-bit overflow bug in buffer i/o code.Anton Altaparmakov1-2/+4
On 32-bit architectures, the legacy buffer_head functions are not always handling the sector number with the proper 64-bit types, and will thus fail on 4TB+ disks. Any code that uses __getblk() (and thus bread(), breadahead(), sb_bread(), sb_breadahead(), sb_getblk()), and calls it using a 64-bit block on a 32-bit arch (where "long" is 32-bit) causes an inifinite loop in __getblk_slow() with an infinite stream of errors logged to dmesg like this: __find_get_block_slow() failed. block=6740375944, b_blocknr=2445408648 b_state=0x00000020, b_size=512 device sda1 blocksize: 512 Note how in hex block is 0x191C1F988 and b_blocknr is 0x91C1F988 i.e. the top 32-bits are missing (in this case the 0x1 at the top). This is because grow_dev_page() is broken and has a 32-bit overflow due to shifting the page index value (a pgoff_t - which is just 32 bits on 32-bit architectures) left-shifted as the block number. But the top bits to get lost as the pgoff_t is not type cast to sector_t / 64-bit before the shift. This patch fixes this issue by type casting "index" to sector_t before doing the left shift. Note this is not a theoretical bug but has been seen in the field on a 4TiB hard drive with logical sector size 512 bytes. This patch has been verified to fix the infinite loop problem on 3.17-rc5 kernel using a 4TB disk image mounted using "-o loop". Without this patch doing a "find /nt" where /nt is an NTFS volume causes the inifinite loop 100% reproducibly whilst with the patch it works fine as expected.

Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule(). So: Rename wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock to wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action to make it explicit that they need an action function. Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use a standard one. The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action function. All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their action functions have been discarded. wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and interpolate their own error code as appropriate. The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function. David Howells confirms this should be uniformly "uninterruptible" The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call. A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action' functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan' field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan). As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack. So the distinction will still be visible, only with different function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the gfs2/glock.c case). Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS. CIFS also now uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware schedule call as NFS.

2014-06-04mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where ↵Mel Gorman1-3/+4
possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting. The performance results are reported based on a run with no profiling.

Discarding buffers uses a bunch of atomic operations when discarding buffers because ...... I can't think of a reason. Use a cmpxchg loop to clear all the necessary flags.

The last in-tree caller of block_write_full_page_endio() was removed in January 2013. It's time to remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL, which leaves block_write_full_page() as the only caller of block_write_full_page_endio(), so inline block_write_full_page_endio() into block_write_full_page().
