When updating the backing store from the pagecache (a'la writepage or
writepages), write to the cache first. This allows us to keep caching
files even when they are being written, as long as we have appropriate
caps.

Now that the fscache API has been reworked and simplified, change ceph
over to use it.
With the old API, we would only instantiate a cookie when the file was
open for reads. Change it to instantiate the cookie when the inode is
instantiated and call use/unuse when the file is opened/closed.
Also, ensure we resize the cached data on truncates, and invalidate the
cache in response to the appropriate events. This will allow us to
plumb in write support later.

Move NFS to using fscache DIO API instead of the old upstream I/O API as
that has been removed. This is a stopgap solution as the intention is that
at sometime in the future, the cache will move to using larger blocks and
won't be able to store individual pages in order to deal with the potential
for data corruption due to the backing filesystem being able insert/remove
bridging blocks of zeros into its extent list[1].
NFS then reads and writes cache pages synchronously and one page at a time.
The preferred change would be to use the netfs lib, but the new I/O API can
be used directly. It's just that as the cache now needs to track data for
itself, caching blocks may exceed page size...
This code is somewhat borrowed from my "fallback I/O" patchset[2].

Change the nfs filesystem to support fscache's indexing rewrite and
reenable caching in nfs.
The following changes have been made:
(1) The fscache_netfs struct is no more, and there's no need to register
the filesystem as a whole.
(2) The session cookie is now an fscache_volume cookie, allocated with
fscache_acquire_volume(). That takes three parameters: a string
representing the "volume" in the index, a string naming the cache to
use (or NULL) and a u64 that conveys coherency metadata for the
volume.
For nfs, I've made it render the volume name string as:
"nfs,<ver>,<family>,<address>,<port>,<fsidH>,<fsidL>*<,param>[,<uniq>]"
(3) The fscache_cookie_def is no more and needed information is passed
directly to fscache_acquire_cookie(). The cache no longer calls back
into the filesystem, but rather metadata changes are indicated at
other times.
fscache_acquire_cookie() is passed the same keying and coherency
information as before.
(4) fscache_enable/disable_cookie() have been removed.
Call fscache_use_cookie() and fscache_unuse_cookie() when a file is
opened or closed to prevent a cache file from being culled and to keep
resources to hand that are needed to do I/O.
If a file is opened for writing, we invalidate it with
FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE in lieu of doing writeback to the cache,
thereby making it cease caching until all currently open files are
closed. This should give the same behaviour as the uptream code.
Making the cache store local modifications isn't straightforward for
NFS, so that's left for future patches.
(5) fscache_invalidate() now needs to be given uptodate auxiliary data and
a file size. It also takes a flag to indicate if this was due to a
DIO write.
(6) Call nfs_fscache_invalidate() with FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE on a file
to which a DIO write is made.
(7) Call fscache_note_page_release() from nfs_release_page().
(8) Use a killable wait in nfs_vm_page_mkwrite() when waiting for
PG_fscache to be cleared.
(9) The functions to read and write data to/from the cache are stubbed out
pending a conversion to use netfslib.

When writing to the server from v9fs_vfs_writepage(), copy the data to the
cache object too.
To make this possible, the cookie must have its active users count
incremented when the page is dirtied and kept incremented until we manage
to clean up all the pages. This allows the writeback to take place after
the last file struct is released.
This is done by taking a use on the cookie in v9fs_set_page_dirty() if we
haven't already done so (controlled by the I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB flag) and
dropping the pin in v9fs_write_inode() if __writeback_single_inode() clears
all the outstanding dirty pages (conveyed by the unpinned_fscache_wb flag
in the writeback_control struct).
Inode eviction must also clear the flag after truncating away all the
outstanding pages.
In the future this will be handled more gracefully by netfslib.

Change the 9p filesystem to take account of the changes to fscache's
indexing rewrite and reenable caching in 9p.
The following changes have been made:
(1) The fscache_netfs struct is no more, and there's no need to register
the filesystem as a whole.
(2) The session cookie is now an fscache_volume cookie, allocated with
fscache_acquire_volume(). That takes three parameters: a string
representing the "volume" in the index, a string naming the cache to
use (or NULL) and a u64 that conveys coherency metadata for the
volume.
For 9p, I've made it render the volume name string as:
"9p,<devname>,<cachetag>"
where the cachetag is replaced by the aname if it wasn't supplied.
This probably needs rethinking a bit as the aname can have slashes in
it. It might be better to hash the cachetag and use the hash or I
could substitute commas for the slashes or something.
(3) The fscache_cookie_def is no more and needed information is passed
directly to fscache_acquire_cookie(). The cache no longer calls back
into the filesystem, but rather metadata changes are indicated at
other times.
fscache_acquire_cookie() is passed the same keying and coherency
information as before.
(4) The functions to set/reset/flush cookies are removed and
fscache_use_cookie() and fscache_unuse_cookie() are used instead.
fscache_use_cookie() is passed a flag to indicate if the cookie is
opened for writing. fscache_unuse_cookie() is passed updates for the
metadata if we changed it (ie. if the file was opened for writing).
These are called when the file is opened or closed.
(5) wait_on_page_bit[_killable]() is replaced with the specific wait
functions for the bits waited upon.
(6) I've got rid of some of the 9p-specific cache helper functions and
called things like fscache_relinquish_cookie() directly as they'll
optimise away if v9fs_inode_cookie() returns an unconditional NULL
(which will be the case if CONFIG_9P_FSCACHE=n).
(7) v9fs_vfs_setattr() is made to call fscache_resize() to change the size
of the cache object.
Notes:
(A) We should call fscache_invalidate() if we detect that the server's
copy of a file got changed by a third party, but I don't know where to
do that. We don't need to do that when allocating the cookie as we
get a check-and-invalidate when we initially bind to the cache object.
(B) The copy-to-cache-on-writeback side of things will be handled in
separate patch.

Change the afs filesystem to support the new afs driver.
The following changes have been made:
(1) The fscache_netfs struct is no more, and there's no need to register
the filesystem as a whole. There's also no longer a cell cookie.
(2) The volume cookie is now an fscache_volume cookie, allocated with
fscache_acquire_volume(). This function takes three parameters: a
string representing the "volume" in the index, a string naming the
cache to use (or NULL) and a u64 that conveys coherency metadata for
the volume.
For afs, I've made it render the volume name string as:
"afs,<cell>,<volume_id>"
and the coherency data is currently 0.
(3) The fscache_cookie_def is no more and needed information is passed
directly to fscache_acquire_cookie(). The cache no longer calls back
into the filesystem, but rather metadata changes are indicated at
other times.
fscache_acquire_cookie() is passed the same keying and coherency
information as before, except that these are now stored in big endian
form instead of cpu endian. This makes the cache more copyable.
(4) fscache_use_cookie() and fscache_unuse_cookie() are called when a file
is opened or closed to prevent a cache file from being culled and to
keep resources to hand that are needed to do I/O.
fscache_use_cookie() is given an indication if the cache is likely to
be modified locally (e.g. the file is open for writing).
fscache_unuse_cookie() is given a coherency update if we had the file
open for writing and will update that.
(5) fscache_invalidate() is now given uptodate auxiliary data and a file
size. It can also take a flag to indicate if this was due to a DIO
write. This is wrapped into afs_fscache_invalidate() now for
convenience.
(6) fscache_resize() now gets called from the finalisation of
afs_setattr(), and afs_setattr() does use/unuse of the cookie around
the call to support this.
(7) fscache_note_page_release() is called from afs_release_page().
(8) Use a killable wait in nfs_vm_page_mkwrite() when waiting for
PG_fscache to be cleared.
Render the parts of the cookie key for an afs inode cookie as big endian.

Implement the I/O routines for cachefiles. There are two sets of routines
here: preparation and actual I/O.
Preparation for read involves looking to see whether there is data present,
and how much. Netfslib tells us what it wants us to do and we have the
option of adjusting shrinking and telling it whether to read from the
cache, download from the server or simply clear a region.
Preparation for write involves checking for space and defending against
possibly running short of space, if necessary punching out a hole in the
file so that we don't leave old data in the cache if we update the
coherency information.
Then there's a read routine and a write routine. They wait for the cookie
state to move to something appropriate and then start a potentially
asynchronous direct I/O operation upon it.

Implement the methods for beginning and ending an I/O operation.
When called to begin an I/O operation, we are guaranteed that the cookie
has reached a certain stage (we're called by fscache after it has done a
suitable wait).
If a file is available, we paste a ref over into the cache resources for
the I/O routines to use. This means that the object can be invalidated
whilst the I/O is ongoing without the need to synchronise as the file
pointer in the object is replaced, but the file pointer in the cache
resources is unaffected.
Ending the operation just requires ditching any refs we have and dropping
the access guarantee that fscache got for us on the cookie.

Implement the wrangling of backing files, including the following pieces:
(1) Lookup and creation of a file on disk, using a tmpfile if the file
isn't yet present. The file is then opened, sized for DIO and the
file handle is attached to the cachefiles_object struct. The inode is
marked to indicate that it's in use by a kernel service.
(2) Invalidation of an object, creating a tmpfile and switching the file
pointer in the cachefiles object.
(3) Committing a file to disk, including setting the coherency xattr on it
and, if necessary, creating a hard link to it.
Note that this would be a good place to use Omar Sandoval's vfs_link()
with AT_LINK_REPLACE[1] as I may have to unlink an old file before I
can link a tmpfile into place.
(4) Withdrawal of open objects when a cache is being withdrawn or a cookie
is relinquished. This involves committing or discarding the file.

Implement the ability for the userspace daemon to try and cull a file or
directory in the cache. Two daemon commands are implemented:
(1) The "inuse" command. This queries if a file is in use or whether it
can be deleted. It checks the S_KERNEL_FILE flag on the inode
referred to by the specified filename.
(2) The "cull" command. This asks for a file or directory to be removed,
where removal means either unlinking it or moving it to the graveyard
directory for userspace to dismantle.

Use an xattr on each backing file in the cache to store some metadata, such
as the content type and the coherency data.
Five content types are defined:
(0) No content stored.
(1) The file contains a single monolithic blob and must be all or nothing.
This would be used for something like an AFS directory or a symlink.
(2) The file is populated with content completely up to a point with
nothing beyond that.
(3) The file has a map attached and is sparsely populated. This would be
stored in one or more additional xattrs.
(4) The file is dirty, being in the process of local modification and the
contents are not necessarily represented correctly by the metadata.
The file should be deleted if this is seen on binding.

used as a filename. Four options are considered:
(1) All printable chars with no '/' characters. Prepend a 'D' to indicate
the encoding but otherwise use as-is.
(2) Appears to be an array of __be32. Encode as 'S' plus a list of
hex-encoded 32-bit ints separated by commas. If a number is 0, it is
rendered as "" instead of "0".
(3) Appears to be an array of __le32. Encoded as (2) but with a 'T'
encoding prefix.
(4) Encoded as base64 with an 'E' prefix plus a second char indicating how
much padding is involved. A non-standard base64 encoding is used
because '/' cannot be used in the encoded form.
If (1) is not possible, whichever of (2), (3) or (4) produces the shortest
string is selected (hex-encoding a number may be less dense than base64
encoding it).
Note that the prefix characters have to be selected from the set [DEIJST@]
lest cachefilesd remove the files because it recognise the name.

create, and one for I/O operations, like read, write or truncate.
Also add the beginnings of a struct that is going to represent a data file
and place a debugging ID in it for the tracepoints to record.

Cachefiles has a problem in that it needs to keep the backing file for a
cookie open whilst there are local modifications pending that need to be
written to it. However, we don't want to keep the file open indefinitely,
as that causes EMFILE/ENFILE/ENOMEM problems.
Reopening the cache file, however, is a problem if this is being done due
to writeback triggered by exit(). Some filesystems will oops if we try to
open a file in that context because they want to access current->fs or
other resources that have already been dismantled.
To get around this, I added the following:
(1) An inode flag, I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB, to be set on a network filesystem
inode to indicate that we have a usage count on the cookie caching
that inode.
(2) A flag in struct writeback_control, unpinned_fscache_wb, that is set
when __writeback_single_inode() clears the last dirty page from
i_pages - at which point it clears I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and sets this
flag.
This has to be done here so that clearing I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB can be
done atomically with the check of PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY that clears
I_DIRTY_PAGES.
(3) A function, fscache_set_page_dirty(), which if it is not set, sets
I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and calls fscache_use_cookie() to pin the cache
resources.
(4) A function, fscache_unpin_writeback(), to be called by ->write_inode()
to unuse the cookie.
(5) A function, fscache_clear_inode_writeback(), to be called when the
inode is evicted, before clear_inode() is called. This cleans up any
lingering I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB.
The network filesystem can then use these tools to make sure that
fscache_write_to_cache() can write locally modified data to the cache as
well as to the server.
For the future, I'm working on write helpers for netfs lib that should
allow this facility to be removed by keeping track of the dirty regions
separately - but that's incomplete at the moment and is also going to be
affected by folios, one way or another, since it deals with pages

Provide a higher-level function than fscache_write() to perform a write
from an inode's pagecache to the cache, whilst fending off concurrent
writes by means of the PG_fscache mark on a page:
void fscache_write_to_cache(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
struct address_space *mapping,
loff_t start,
size_t len,
loff_t i_size,
netfs_io_terminated_t term_func,
void *term_func_priv,
bool caching);
If caching is false, this function does nothing except call (*term_func)()
if given. It assumes that, in such a case, PG_fscache will not have been
set on the pages.
Otherwise, if caching is true, this function requires the source pages to
have had PG_fscache set on them before calling. start and len define the
region of the file to be modified and i_size indicates the new file size.
The source pages are extracted from the mapping.
term_func and term_func_priv work as for fscache_write(). The PG_fscache
marks will be cleared at the end of the operation, before term_func is
called or the function otherwise returns.
There is an additonal helper function to clear the PG_fscache bits from a
range of pages:
void fscache_clear_page_bits(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
struct address_space *mapping,
loff_t start, size_t len,
bool caching);
If caching is true, the pages to be managed are expected to be located on
mapping in the range defined by start and len. If caching is false, it
does nothing.

This is used to pin certain cache structures until cache withdrawal is
complete.
Three helpers are provided to manage and make use of the count:
(1) void fscache_count_object(struct fscache_cache *cache);
This should be called by the cache backend to note that an object has
been allocated and attached to the cache.
(2) void fscache_uncount_object(struct fscache_cache *cache);
This should be called by the backend to note that an object has been
destroyed. This sends a wakeup event that allows cache withdrawal to
proceed if it was waiting for that object.
(3) void fscache_wait_for_objects(struct fscache_cache *cache);
This can be used by the backend to wait for all outstanding cache
object to be destroyed.
Each cache's counter is displayed as part of /proc/fs/fscache/caches.

Provide a function to begin a read operation:
int fscache_begin_read_operation(
struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
struct fscache_cookie *cookie)
This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of
netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly.
It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the
supplied cookie.
This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the
operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform
synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the
cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the
operation.
Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and
able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in
progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the
network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for
the cookie to move to the correct state.
This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state
to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that
I/O can resume.
Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object
to get to a state where it can be used for certain things:
bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
enum fscache_want_stage stage);
This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits
for them to get to an appropriate stage. There's a choice of wanting just
some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O
(FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

Add a function to invalidate the cache behind a cookie:
void fscache_invalidate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
const void *aux_data,
loff_t size,
unsigned int flags)
This causes any cached data for the specified cookie to be discarded. If
the cookie is marked as being in use, a new cache object will be created if
possible and future I/O will use that instead. In-flight I/O should be
abandoned (writes) or reconsidered (reads). Each time it is called
cookie->inval_counter is incremented and this can be used to detect
invalidation at the end of an I/O operation.
The coherency data attached to the cookie can be updated and the cookie
size should be reset. One flag is available, FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE,
which should be used to indicate invalidation due to a DIO write on a
file. This will temporarily disable caching for this cookie.

Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open
files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin
resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are
users.
The first function marks a cookie as being in use:
void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
bool will_modify);
The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller
is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR).
If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend
in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise
obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the
cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a
whole is withdrawn.
The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally,
updates the coherency data:
void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
const void *aux_data,
const loff_t *object_size);
If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into
the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is
committed.
If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an
LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds
if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache -
in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open.
Changes
=======
ver #2:
- Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a
potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the
unusement.

Add cache methods to lookup, create and remove a volume.
Looking up or creating the volume requires the cache pinning for access;
freeing the volume requires the volume pinning for access. The
->acquire_volume() method is used to ask the cache backend to lookup and,
if necessary, create a volume; the ->free_volume() method is used to free
the resources for a volume.

Implement functions to allow the cache backend to add or remove a cache:
(1) Declare a cache to be live:
int fscache_add_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache,
const struct fscache_cache_ops *ops,
void *cache_priv);
Take a previously acquired cache cookie, set the operations table and
private data and mark the cache open for access.
(2) Withdraw a cache from service:
void fscache_withdraw_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache);
This marks the cache as withdrawn and thus prevents further
cache-level and volume-level accesses.

Add a number of helper functions to manage access to a cookie, pinning the
cache object in place for the duration to prevent cache withdrawal from
removing it:
(1) void fscache_init_access_gate(struct fscache_cookie *cookie);
This function initialises the access count when a cache binds to a
cookie. An extra ref is taken on the access count to prevent wakeups
while the cache is active. We're only interested in the wakeup when a
cookie is being withdrawn and we're waiting for it to quiesce - at
which point the counter will be decremented before the wait.
The FSCACHE_COOKIE_NACC_ELEVATED flag is set on the cookie to keep
track of the extra ref in order to handle a race between
relinquishment and withdrawal both trying to drop the extra ref.
(2) bool fscache_begin_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
This function attempts to begin access upon a cookie, pinning it in
place if it's cached. If successful, it returns true and leaves a the
access count incremented.
(3) void fscache_end_cookie_access(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
This function drops the access count obtained by (2), permitting
object withdrawal to take place when it reaches zero.
A tracepoint is provided to track changes to the access counter on a
cookie.
Changes
=======
ver #2:
- Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but
rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when
n_accesses reaches 0.

Add a pair of helper functions to manage access to a volume, pinning the
volume in place for the duration to prevent cache withdrawal from removing
it:
bool fscache_begin_volume_access(struct fscache_volume *volume,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
void fscache_end_volume_access(struct fscache_volume *volume,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
The way the access gate on the volume works/will work is:
(1) If the cache tests as not live (state is not FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_ACTIVE),
then we return false to indicate access was not permitted.
(2) If the cache tests as live, then we increment the volume's n_accesses
count and then recheck the cache liveness, ending the access if it
ceased to be live.
(3) When we end the access, we decrement the volume's n_accesses and wake
up the any waiters if it reaches 0.
(4) Whilst the cache is caching, the volume's n_accesses is kept
artificially incremented to prevent wakeups from happening.
(5) When the cache is taken offline, the state is changed to prevent new
accesses, the volume's n_accesses is decremented and we wait for it to
become 0.

Add a pair of functions to pin/unpin a cache that we're wanting to do a
high-level access to (such as creating or removing a volume):
bool fscache_begin_cache_access(struct fscache_cache *cache,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
void fscache_end_cache_access(struct fscache_cache *cache,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
The way the access gate works/will work is:
(1) If the cache tests as not live (state is not FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_ACTIVE),
then we return false to indicate access was not permitted.
(2) If the cache tests as live, then we increment the n_accesses count and
then recheck the liveness, ending the access if it ceased to be live.
(3) When we end the access, we decrement n_accesses and wake up the any
waiters if it reaches 0.
(4) Whilst the cache is caching, n_accesses is kept artificially
incremented to prevent wakeups from happening.
(5) When the cache is taken offline, the state is changed to prevent new
accesses, n_accesses is decremented and we wait for n_accesses to
become 0.
Note that some of this is implemented in a later patch.
