* ext4: convert fault handler to use vm_fault_t typeSouptick Joarder2018-10-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Return type of ext4_page_mkwrite and ext4_filemap_fault are changed to use vm_fault_t type. With this patch all the callers of block_page_mkwrite_return() are changed to handle vm_fault_t. So converting the return type of block_page_mkwrite_return() to vm_fault_t.

| * buffer: Avoid setting buffer bits that are already setKemi Wang2018-02-021-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's expensive to set buffer flags that are already set, because that causes a costly cache line transition. A common case is setting the "verified" flag during ext4 writes. This patch checks for the flag being set first. With the AIM7/creat-clo benchmark testing on a 48G ramdisk based-on ext4 file system, we see 3.3%(15431->15936) improvement of aim7.jobs-per-min on a 2-sockets broadwell platform. What the benchmark does is: it forks 3000 processes, and each process do the following: a) open a new file b) close the file c) delete the file until loop=100*1000 times.

* | License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1

By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both ext4 and xfs implement seeking for the next hole or piece of data in unwritten extents by scanning the page cache, and both versions share the same bug when iterating the buffers of a page: the start offset into the page isn't taken into account, so when a page fits more than two filesystem blocks, things will go wrong. For example, on a filesystem with a block size of 1k, the following command will fail: xfs_io -f -c "falloc 0 4k" \ -c "pwrite 1k 1k" \ -c "pwrite 3k 1k" \ -c "seek -a -r 0" foo In this example, neither lseek(fd, 1024, SEEK_HOLE) nor lseek(fd, 2048, SEEK_DATA) will return the correct result. Introduce a generic vfs helper for seeking in the page cache that gets this right. The next commits will replace the filesystem specific implementations.

* | buffer: set errors in mapping at the time that the error occursJeff Layton2017-07-061-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed on xfs that I could still sometimes get back an error on fsync on a fd that was opened after the error condition had been cleared. The problem is that the buffer code sets the write_io_error flag and then later checks that flag to set the error in the mapping. That flag perisists for quite a while however. If the file is later opened with O_TRUNC, the buffers will then be invalidated and the mapping's error set such that a subsequent fsync will return error. I think this is incorrect, as there was no writeback between the open and fsync. Add a new mark_buffer_write_io_error operation that sets the flag and the error in the mapping at the same time. Replace all calls to set_buffer_write_io_error with mark_buffer_write_io_error, and remove the places that check this flag in order to set the error in the mapping. This sets the error in the mapping earlier, at the time that it's first detected.

* fs: remove _submit_bh()Eric Biggers2017-04-261-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _submit_bh() allowed submitting a buffer_head for I/O using custom bio_flags. It used to be used by jbd to set BIO_SNAP_STABLE, introduced by commit 713685111774 ("mm: make snapshotting pages for stable writes a per-bio operation"). However, the code and flag has since been removed and no _submit_bh() users remain. These days, bio_flags are mostly used internally by the block layer to track the state of bio's. As such, it doesn't really make sense for filesystems to use them instead of op_flags when wanting special behavior for block requests. Therefore, remove _submit_bh() and trim the bio_flags argument from submit_bh_wbc(). Cc: Darrick J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some ->page_mkwrite handlers may return VM_FAULT_RETRY as its return code (GFS2 or Lustre can definitely do this). However VM_FAULT_RETRY from ->page_mkwrite is completely unhandled by the mm code and results in locking and writeably mapping the page which definitely is not what the caller wanted. Fix Lustre and block_page_mkwrite_ret() used by other filesystems (notably GFS2) to return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE instead which results in bailing out from the fault code, the CPU then retries the access, and we fault again effectively doing what the handler wanted.

* | fs: export __block_write_full_pageBenjamin Marzinski2016-06-271-0/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov2016-04-041-2/+2

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.

* direct-io: Implement generic deferred AIO completionsChristoph Hellwig2013-09-041-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user context using a workqueue. This replaces opencoded and less efficient code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO) and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO. The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating with the filesystems. Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Page reclaim keeps track of dirty and under writeback pages and uses it to determine if wait_iff_congested() should stall or if kswapd should begin writing back pages. This fails to account for buffer pages that can be under writeback but not PageWriteback which is the case for filesystems like ext3 ordered mode. Furthermore, PageDirty buffer pages can have all the buffers clean and writepage does no IO so it should not be accounted as congested. This patch adds an address_space operation that filesystems may optionally use to check if a page is really dirty or really under writeback. An implementation is provided for for buffer_heads is added and used for block operations and ext3 in ordered mode. By default the page flags are obeyed. Credit goes to Jan Kara for identifying that the page flags alone are not sufficient for ext3 and sanity checking a number of ideas on how the problem could be addressed.

* mm: change invalidatepage prototype to accept lengthLukas Czerner2013-05-211-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently there is no way to truncate partial page where the end truncate point is not at the end of the page. This is because it was not needed and the functionality was enough for file system truncate operation to work properly. However more file systems now support punch hole feature and it can benefit from mm supporting truncating page just up to the certain point. Specifically, with this functionality truncate_inode_pages_range() can be changed so it supports truncating partial page at the end of the range (currently it will BUG_ON() if 'end' is not at the end of the page). This commit changes the invalidatepage() address space operation prototype to accept range to be invalidated and update all the instances for it. We also change the block_invalidatepage() in the same way and actually make a use of the new length argument implementing range invalidation. Actual file system implementations will follow except the file systems where the changes are really simple and should not change the behaviour in any way .Implementation for truncate_page_range() which will be able to accept page unaligned ranges will follow as well.

We cannot do the blocking wait in __block_page_mkwrite() since e.g. ext4 will want to call that function with transaction started in some cases and that would deadlock. But we can at least do the non-blocking reliable check in __block_page_mkwrite() which is the hardest part anyway. We have to check for frozen filesystem with the page marked dirty and under page lock with which we then return from ->page_mkwrite(). Only that way we cannot race with writeback done by freezing code - either we mark the page dirty after the writeback has started, see freezing in progress and block, or writeback will wait for our page lock which is released only when the fault is done and then writeback will writeout and writeprotect the page again.

REQ_FLUSH means the device cache should be flushed before executing the request. REQ_FUA means that the data in the request should be on non-volatile media on completion. Block layer will choose the correct way of implementing the semantics and execute it. The request may be passed to the device directly if the device can handle it; otherwise, it will be sequenced using one or more proxy requests. Devices will never see REQ_FLUSH and/or FUA which it doesn't support. Also, unlike the original REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA requests are never failed with -EOPNOTSUPP. If the underlying device doesn't support FLUSH/FUA, the block layer simply make those noop. IOW, it no longer distinguishes between writeback cache which doesn't support cache flush and writethrough/no cache. Devices which have WB cache w/o flush are very difficult to come by these days and there's nothing much we can do anyway, so it doesn't make sense to require everyone to implement -EOPNOTSUPP handling. This will simplify filesystems and block drivers as they can drop -EOPNOTSUPP retry logic for barriers. * QUEUE_ORDERED_* are removed and QUEUE_FSEQ_* are moved into blk-flush.c. * REQ_FLUSH w/o data can also be directly passed to drivers without sequencing but some drivers assume that zero length requests don't have rq->bio which isn't true for these requests requiring the use of proxy requests. * REQ_COMMON_MASK now includes REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA so that they are copied from bio to request. * WRITE_BARRIER is marked deprecated and WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_FUA and WRITE_FLUSH_FUA are added.
