In the scenario of writing sparse files, the per-inode prealloc list may
be very long, resulting in high overhead for ext4_mb_use_preallocated().
To circumvent this problem, we limit the maximum length of per-inode
prealloc list to 512 and allow users to modify it.
After patching, we observed that the sys ratio of cpu has dropped, and
the system throughput has increased significantly. We created a process
to write the sparse file, and the running time of the process on the
fixed kernel was significantly reduced, as follows:
Running time on unfixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real 0m2.051s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m2.026s
Running time on fixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real 0m0.471s
user 0m0.004s
sys 0m0.395s

Currently, system zones just track ranges of block, that are "important"
fs metadata (bitmaps, group descriptors, journal blocks, etc.). This
however complicates how extent tree (or indirect blocks) can be checked
for inodes that actually track such metadata - currently the journal
inode but arguably we should be treating quota files or resize inode
similarly. We cannot run __ext4_ext_check() on such metadata inodes when
loading their extents as that would immediately trigger the validity
checks and so we just hack around that and special-case the journal
inode. This however leads to a situation that a journal inode which has
extent tree of depth at least one can have invalid extent tree that gets
unnoticed until ext4_cache_extents() crashes.
To overcome this limitation, track inode number each system zone belongs
to (0 is used for zones not belonging to any inode). We can then verify
inode number matches the expected one when verifying extent tree and
thus avoid the false errors. With this there's no need to to
special-case journal inode during extent tree checking anymore so remove
it.

Wire up ext4 to support inline encryption via the helper functions which
fs/crypto/ now provides. This includes:
- Adding a mount option 'inlinecrypt' which enables inline encryption
on encrypted files where it can be used.
- Setting the bio_crypt_ctx on bios that will be submitted to an
inline-encrypted file.
Note: submit_bh_wbc() in fs/buffer.c also needed to be patched for
this part, since ext4 sometimes uses ll_rw_block() on file data.
- Not adding logically discontiguous data to bios that will be submitted
to an inline-encrypted file.
- Not doing filesystem-layer crypto on inline-encrypted files.

The only use of I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE is to detect in
__writeback_single_inode() that inode got there because flush worker
decided it's time to writeback the dirty inode time stamps (either
because we are syncing or because of age). However we can detect this
directly in __writeback_single_inode() and there's no need for the
strange propagation with I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE flag.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull AFS updates from David Howells:
"There's some core VFS changes which affect a couple of filesystems:
- Make the inode hash table RCU safe and providing some RCU-safe
accessor functions. The search can then be done without taking the
inode_hash_lock. Care must be taken because the object may be being
deleted and no wait is made.
- Allow iunique() to avoid taking the inode_hash_lock.
- Allow AFS's callback processing to avoid taking the inode_hash_lock
when using the inode table to find an inode to notify.
- Improve Ext4's time updating. Konstantin Khlebnikov said "For now,
I've plugged this issue with try-lock in ext4 lazy time update.
This solution is much better."
Then there's a set of changes to make a number of improvements to the
AFS driver:
- Improve callback (ie. third party change notification) processing
by:
(a) Relying more on the fact we're doing this under RCU and by
using fewer locks. This makes use of the RCU-based inode
searching outlined above.
(b) Moving to keeping volumes in a tree indexed by volume ID
rather than a flat list.
(c) Making the server and volume records logically part of the
cell. This means that a server record now points directly at
the cell and the tree of volumes is there. This removes an N:M
mapping table, simplifying things.
- Improve keeping NAT or firewall channels open for the server
callbacks to reach the client by actively polling the fileserver on
a timed basis, instead of only doing it when we have an operation
to process.
- Improving detection of delayed or lost callbacks by including the
parent directory in the list of file IDs to be queried when doing a
bulk status fetch from lookup. We can then check to see if our copy
of the directory has changed under us without us getting notified.
- Determine aliasing of cells (such as a cell that is pointed to be a
DNS alias). This allows us to avoid having ambiguity due to
apparently different cells using the same volume and file servers.
- Improve the fileserver rotation to do more probing when it detects
that all of the addresses to a server are listed as non-responsive.
It's possible that an address that previously stopped responding
has become responsive again.
Beyond that, lay some foundations for making some calls asynchronous:
- Turn the fileserver cursor struct into a general operation struct
and hang the parameters off of that rather than keeping them in
local variables and hang results off of that rather than the call
struct.
- Implement some general operation handling code and simplify the
callers of operations that affect a volume or a volume component
(such as a file). Most of the operation is now done by core code.
- Operations are supplied with a table of operations to issue
different variants of RPCs and to manage the completion, where all
the required data is held in the operation object, thereby allowing
these to be called from a workqueue.
- Put the standard "if (begin), while(select), call op, end" sequence
into a canned function that just emulates the current behaviour for
now.
There are also some fixes interspersed:
- Don't let the EACCES from ICMP6 mapping reach the user as such,
since it's confusing as to whether it's a filesystem error. Convert
it to EHOSTUNREACH.
- Don't use the epoch value acquired through probing a server. If we
have two servers with the same UUID but in different cells, it's
hard to draw conclusions from them having different epoch values.
- Don't interpret the argument to the CB.ProbeUuid RPC as a
fileserver UUID and look up a fileserver from it.
- Deal with servers in different cells having the same UUIDs. In the
event that a CB.InitCallBackState3 RPC is received, we have to
break the callback promises for every server record matching that
UUID.
- Don't let afs_statfs return values that go below 0.
- Don't use running fileserver probe state to make server selection
and address selection decisions on. Only make decisions on final
state as the running state is cleared at the start of probing"

ext4_writepages() currently works in a loop like:
start a transaction
scan inode for pages to write
map and submit these pages
stop the transaction
This loop results in starting transaction once more than is needed
because in the last iteration we start a transaction only to scan the
inode and find there are no pages to write. This can be significant
increase in number of transaction starts for single-extent files or
files that have all blocks already mapped. Furthermore we already know
from previous iteration whether there are more pages to write or not. So
propagate the information from mpage_prepare_extent_to_map() and avoid
unnecessary looping in case there are no more pages to write.

ext_debug() msgs could be helpful, provided those could be enabled
without recompiling kernel and also if we could selectively enable
only required prints for case by case debugging.
So make ext_debug() implementation use pr_debug().
Also change ext_debug() to be defined with CONFIG_EXT4_DEBUG.
So EXT_DEBUG macro now mostly remain for below 3 functions.
ext4_ext_show_path/leaf/move() (whose print msgs use ext_debug()
which again could be dynamically enabled using pr_debug())
This also changes the ext_debug() to take inode as a parameter
to add inode no. in all of it's msgs.
Prints additional info like process name / pid, superblock id etc.
This also removes any explicit function names passed in ext_debug().
Since ext_debug() on it's own prints file, func and line no.

ext4_mark_inode_dirty() can fail for real reasons. Ignoring its return
value may lead ext4 to ignore real failures that would result in
corruption / crashes. Harden ext4_mark_inode_dirty error paths to fail
as soon as possible and return errors to the caller whenever
appropriate.
One of the possible scnearios when this bug could affected is that
while creating a new inode, its directory entry gets added
successfully but while writing the inode itself mark_inode_dirty
returns error which is ignored. This would result in inconsistency
that the directory entry points to a non-existent inode.
Ran gce-xfstests smoke tests and verified that there were no
regressions.

When we are evicting inode with journalled data, we may race with
transaction commit in the following way:
CPU0 CPU1

inode_io_list_del()
inode_wait_for_writeback()
process BJ_Forget list
__jbd2_journal_insert_checkpoint()
__jbd2_journal_refile_buffer()
__jbd2_journal_unfile_buffer()
if (test_clear_buffer_jbddirty(bh))
mark_buffer_dirty(bh)
__mark_inode_dirty(inode)
ext4_evict_inode(inode)
frees the inode
This results in use-after-free issues in the writeback code (or
the assertion added in the previous commit triggering).
Fix the problem by removing inode from writeback lists once all the page
cache is evicted and so inode cannot be added to writeback lists again.

Make the inode hash table RCU searchable so that searches that want to
access or modify an inode without taking a ref on that inode can do so
without taking the inode hash table lock.
The main thing this requires is some RCU annotation on the list
manipulation operations. Inodes are already freed by RCU in most cases.
Users of this interface must take care as the inode may be still under
construction or may be being torn down around them.
There are at least three instances where this can be of use:
(1) Testing whether the inode number iunique() is going to return is
currently unique (the iunique_lock is still held).
(2) Ext4 date stamp updating.
(3) AFS callback breaking.

Add a flag ([EXT4|FS]_DAX_FL) to preserve FS_XFLAG_DAX in the ext4
inode.
Set the flag to be user visible and changeable. Set the flag to be
inherited. Allow applications to change the flag at any time except if
it conflicts with the set of mutually exclusive flags (Currently VERITY,
ENCRYPT, JOURNAL_DATA).
Furthermore, restrict setting any of the exclusive flags if DAX is set.
While conceptually possible, we do not allow setting EXT4_DAX_FL while
at the same time clearing exclusion flags (or vice versa) for 2 reasons:
1) The DAX flag does not take effect immediately which
introduces quite a bit of complexity
2) There is no clear use case for being this flexible
Finally, on regular files, flag the inode to not be cached to facilitate
changing S_DAX on the next creation of the inode.

We add 'always', 'never', and 'inode' (default). '-o dax' continues to
operate the same which is equivalent to 'always'. This new
functionality is limited to ext4 only.
Specifically we introduce a 2nd DAX mount flag EXT4_MOUNT2_DAX_NEVER and set
it and EXT4_MOUNT_DAX_ALWAYS appropriately for the mode.
We also force EXT4_MOUNT2_DAX_NEVER if !CONFIG_FS_DAX.
Finally, EXT4_MOUNT2_DAX_INODE is used solely to detect if the user
specified that option for printing.

To prevent complications with in memory inodes we only set S_DAX on
inode load. FS_XFLAG_DAX can be changed at any time and S_DAX will
change after inode eviction and reload.
Add init bool to ext4_set_inode_flags() to indicate if the inode is
being newly initialized.
Assert that S_DAX is not set on an inode which is just being loaded.

S_DAX should only be enabled when the underlying block device supports
dax.
Cache the underlying support for DAX in the super block and modify
ext4_should_use_dax() to check for device support prior to the over
riding mount option.
While we are at it change the function to ext4_should_enable_dax() as
this better reflects the ask as well as matches xfs.

Since commit a8ac900b8163 ("ext4: use non-movable memory for the
superblock") buffers for ext4 superblock were allocated using
the sb_bread_unmovable() helper which allocated buffer heads
out of non-movable memory blocks. It was necessarily to not block
page migrations and do not cause cma allocation failures.
However commit 85c8f176a611 ("ext4: preload block group descriptors")
broke this by introducing pre-reading of the ext4 superblock.
The problem is that __breadahead() is using __getblk() underneath,
which allocates buffer heads out of movable memory.
It resulted in page migration failures I've seen on a machine
with an ext4 partition and a preallocated cma area.
Fix this by introducing sb_breadahead_unmovable() and
__breadahead_gfp() helpers which use non-movable memory for buffer
head allocations and use them for the ext4 superblock readahead.

Using a separate function, ext4_set_errno() to set the errno is
problematic because it doesn't do the right thing once
s_last_error_errorcode is non-zero. It's also less racy to set all of
the error information all at once. (Also, as a bonus, it shrinks code
size slightly.)

For indirect block mapping if the i_block > max supported block in inode
then ext4_ind_map_blocks() returns a -EIO error. But in case of fiemap
this could be a valid query to ->iomap_begin call.
So check if the offset >= s_bitmap_maxbytes in ext4_iomap_begin_report(),

The EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL inode flag is used to indicate whether a file
contains unwritten blocks past i_size. It's set when ext4_fallocate
is called with the KEEP_SIZE flag to extend a file with an unwritten
extent. However, this flag hasn't been useful functionally since
March, 2012, when a decision was made to remove it from ext4.
All traces of EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL were removed from e2fsprogs version
1.42.2 by commit 010dc7b90d97 ("e2fsck: remove EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag
handling") at that time. Now that enough time has passed to make
e2fsprogs versions containing this modification common, this patch now
removes the code associated with EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL from the kernel as
well.
This change has two implications. First, because pre-1.42.2 e2fsck
versions only look for a problem if EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL is set, and
because that bit will never be set by newer kernels containing this
patch, old versions of e2fsck won't have a compatibility problem with
files created by newer kernels.
Second, newer kernels will not clear EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL inode flag bits
belonging to a file written by an older kernel. If set, it will remain
in that state until the file is deleted. Because e2fsck versions since
1.42.2 don't check the flag at all, no adverse effect is expected.
However, pre-1.42.2 e2fsck versions that do check the flag may report
that it is set when it ought not to be after a file has been truncated
or had its unwritten blocks written. In this case, the old version of
e2fsck will offer to clear the flag. No adverse effect would then
occur whether the user chooses to clear the flag or not.

DIR_INDEX has been introduced as a compat ext4 feature. That means that
even kernels / tools that don't understand the feature may modify the
filesystem. This works because for kernels not understanding indexed dir
format, internal htree nodes appear just as empty directory entries.
Index dir aware kernels then check the htree structure is still
consistent before using the data. This all worked reasonably well until
metadata checksums were introduced. The problem is that these
effectively made DIR_INDEX only ro-compatible because internal htree
nodes store checksums in a different place than normal directory blocks.
Thus any modification ignorant to DIR_INDEX (or just clearing
EXT4_INDEX_FL from the inode) will effectively cause checksum mismatch
and trigger kernel errors. So we have to be more careful when dealing
with indexed directories on filesystems with checksumming enabled.
1) We just disallow loading any directory inodes with EXT4_INDEX_FL when
DIR_INDEX is not enabled. This is harsh but it should be very rare (it
means someone disabled DIR_INDEX on existing filesystem and didn't run
e2fsck), e2fsck can fix the problem, and we don't want to answer the
difficult question: "Should we rather corrupt the directory more or
should we ignore that DIR_INDEX feature is not set?"
2) When we find out htree structure is corrupted (but the filesystem and
the directory should in support htrees), we continue just ignoring htree
information for reading but we refuse to add new entries to the
directory to avoid corrupting it more.

ext4_fallocate() is only used in the file_operations for regular files.
Also, the VFS only allows fallocate() on regular files and block
devices, but block devices always use blkdev_fallocate(). For both of
these reasons, S_ISREG() is always true in ext4_fallocate().
Therefore the S_ISREG() checks in ext4_zero_range(),
ext4_collapse_range(), ext4_insert_range(), and ext4_punch_hole() are
redundant. Remove them.

fscrypt_decrypt_pagecache_blocks() can fail, because it uses
skcipher_request_alloc(), which uses kmalloc(), which can fail; and also
because it calls crypto_skcipher_decrypt(), which can fail depending on
the driver that actually implements the crypto.
Therefore it's not appropriate to WARN on decryption error in
__ext4_block_zero_page_range().
Remove the WARN and just handle the error instead.

Linus observed that an allmodconfig build which does a lot of stat(2)
calls that ext4_getattr() was a noticeable (1%) amount of CPU time,
due to the cache line for i_extra_isize getting pulled in. Since the
normal stat system call doesn't return btime, it's a complete waste.
So only calculate btime when it is explicitly requested.

As of now dax_writeback_mapping_range() takes "struct block_device" as a
parameter and dax_dev is searched from bdev name. This also involves taking
a fresh reference on dax_dev and putting that reference at the end of
function.
We are developing a new filesystem virtio-fs and using dax to access host
page cache directly. But there is no block device. IOW, we want to make
use of dax but want to get rid of this assumption that there is always
a block device associated with dax_dev.
So pass in "struct dax_device" as parameter instead of bdev.
ext2/ext4/xfs are current users and they already have a reference on
dax_device. So there is no need to take reference and drop reference to
dax_device on each call of this function.

Currently we start transaction for mapping every extent for writing
using direct IO. This is unnecessary when we know we are overwriting
already allocated blocks and the overhead of starting a transaction can
be significant especially for multithreaded workloads doing small writes.
Use iomap operations that avoid starting a transaction for direct IO
overwrites.
This improves throughput of 4k random writes - fio jobfile:

from 3018MB/s to 4059MB/s in my test VM running test against simulated
pmem device (note that before iomap conversion, this workload was able
to achieve 3708MB/s because old direct IO path avoided transaction start
for overwrites as well). For dax, the win is even larger improving
throughput from 3042MB/s to 4311MB/s.
