Our users reported that there're some random latency spikes when their RT
process is running. Finally we found that latency spike is caused by
FADV_DONTNEED. Which may call lru_add_drain_all() to drain LRU cache on
remote CPUs, and then waits the per-cpu work to complete. The wait time
is uncertain, which may be tens millisecond.
That behavior is unreasonable, because this process is bound to a specific
CPU and the file is only accessed by itself, IOW, there should be no
pagecache pages on a per-cpu pagevec of a remote CPU. That unreasonable
behavior is partially caused by the wrong comparation of the number of
invalidated pages and the number of the target. For example,
if (count < (end_index - start_index + 1))
The count above is how many pages were invalidated in the local CPU, and
(end_index - start_index + 1) is how many pages should be invalidated.
The usage of (end_index - start_index + 1) is incorrect, because they are
virtual addresses, which may not mapped to pages. Besides that, there may
be holes between start and end. So we'd better check whether there are
still pages on per-cpu pagevec after drain the local cpu, and then decide
whether or not to call lru_add_drain_all().
After I applied it with a hotfix to our production environment, most of
the lru_add_drain_all() can be avoided.

- direct io is now implemented using the iomap infrastructure, that's
the main part, we still have a workaround that requires an iomap

- new sysfs exports:
- information about the exclusive filesystem operation status
(balance, device add/remove/replace, ...)
- supported send stream version
Core:
- use ticket space reservations for data, fair policy using the same
infrastructure as metadata
- preparatory work to switch locking from our custom tree locks to
standard rwsem, now the locking context is propagated to all
callers, actual switch is expected to happen in the next dev cycle
- seed device structures are now using list API
- extent tracepoints print proper tree id
- unified range checks for extent buffer helpers
- send: avoid using temporary buffer for copying data
- remove unnecessary RCU protection from space infos
- remove unused readpage callback for metadata, enabling several
cleanups
- replace indirect function calls for end io hooks and remove
extent_io_ops completely
Fixes:
- more lockdep warning fixes
- fix qgroup reservation for delayed inode and an occasional
reservation leak for preallocated files
- fix device replace of a seed device
- fix metadata reservation for fallocate that leads to transaction
aborts
- reschedule if necessary when logging directory items or when
cloning lots of extents
- tree-checker: fix false alert caused by legacy btrfs root item
- send: fix rename/link conflicts for orphanized inodes
- properly initialize device stats for seed devices
- skip devices without magic signature when mounting

Split rw_copy_check_uvector into two new helpers with more sensible
calling conventions:
- iovec_from_user copies a iovec from userspace either into the provided
stack buffer if it fits, or allocates a new buffer for it. Returns
the actually used iovec. It also verifies that iov_len does fit a
signed type, and handles compat iovecs if the compat flag is set.
- __import_iovec consolidates the native and compat versions of
import_iovec. It calls iovec_from_user, then validates each iovec
actually points to user addresses, and ensures the total length
doesn't overflow.
This has two major implications:
- the access_process_vm case loses the total lenght checking, which
wasn't required anyway, given that each call receives two iovecs
for the local and remote side of the operation, and it verifies
the total length on the local side already.
- instead of a single loop there now are two loops over the iovecs.
Given that the iovecs are cache hot this doesn't make a major
difference

We have a set of flags that are shared between the two and inherired
in kiocb_set_rw_flags(), but we check and set these individually.
Reorder the IOCB flags so that the bottom part of the space is synced
with the RWF flag space, and then we can do them all in one mask and
set operation.
The only exception is RWF_SYNC, which needs to mark IOCB_SYNC and
IOCB_DSYNC. Do that one separately.
This shaves 15 bytes of text from kiocb_set_rw_flags() for me.

The BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES is one of the few bits of information in the
backing_dev_info shared between the block drivers and the writeback code.
To help untangling the dependency replace it with a queue flag and a
superblock flag derived from it. This also helps with the case of e.g.
a file system requiring stable writes due to its own checksumming, but
not forcing it on other users of the block device like the swap code.
One downside is that we an't support the stable_pages_required bdi
attribute in sysfs anymore. It is replaced with a queue attribute which
also is writable for easier testing.

Commit c0d0381ade ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization") requires callers of huge_pte_alloc to hold i_mmap_rwsem
in at least read mode. This is because the explicit locking in
huge_pmd_share (called by huge_pte_alloc) was removed. When restructuring
the code, the call to huge_pte_alloc in the else block at the beginning of
hugetlb_fault was missed.
Unfortunately, that else clause is exercised when there is no page table
entry. This will likely lead to a call to huge_pmd_share. If
huge_pmd_share thinks pmd sharing is possible, it will traverse the
mapping tree (i_mmap) without holding i_mmap_rwsem. If someone else is
modifying the tree, bad things such as addressing exceptions or worse
could happen.
Simply remove the else clause. It should have been removed previously.
The code following the else will call huge_pte_alloc with the appropriate
locking.
To prevent this type of issue in the future, add routines to assert that
i_mmap_rwsem is held, and call these routines in huge pmd sharing
routines.

The current split between do_mmap() and do_mmap_pgoff() was introduced in
commit 1fcfd8db7f ("mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to
do_mmap_pgoff()") to support MPX.
The wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff() always passed 0 as the value of the
vm_flags argument to do_mmap(). However, MPX support has subsequently
been removed from the kernel and there were no more direct callers of
do_mmap(); all calls were going via do_mmap_pgoff().
Simplify the code by removing do_mmap_pgoff() and changing all callers to
directly call do_mmap(), which now no longer takes a vm_flags argument.

Patch series "tmpfs: inode: Reduce risk of inum overflow", v7.
In Facebook production we are seeing heavy i_ino wraparounds on tmpfs. On
affected tiers, in excess of 10% of hosts show multiple files with
different content and the same inode number, with some servers even having
as many as 150 duplicated inode numbers with differing file content.
This causes actual, tangible problems in production. For example, we have
complaints from those working on remote caches that their application is
reporting cache corruptions because it uses (device, inodenum) to
establish the identity of a particular cache object, but because it's not
unique any more, the application refuses to continue and reports cache
corruption. Even worse, sometimes applications may not even detect the
corruption but may continue anyway, causing phantom and hard to debug
behaviour.
In general, userspace applications expect that (device, inodenum) should
be enough to be uniquely point to one inode, which seems fair enough. One
might also need to check the generation, but in this case:
1. That's not currently exposed to userspace
(ioctl(...FS_IOC_GETVERSION...) returns ENOTTY on tmpfs);
2. Even with generation, there shouldn't be two live inodes with the
same inode number on one device.
In order to mitigate this, we take a two-pronged approach:
1. Moving inum generation from being global to per-sb for tmpfs. This
itself allows some reduction in i_ino churn. This works on both 64-
and 32- bit machines.
2. Adding inode{64,32} for tmpfs. This fix is supported on machines with
64-bit ino_t only: we allow users to mount tmpfs with a new inode64
option that uses the full width of ino_t, or CONFIG_TMPFS_INODE64.
You can see how this compares to previous related patches which didn't
implement this per-superblock:
- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11254001/
- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11023915/
This patch (of 2):
get_next_ino has a number of problems:
- It uses and returns a uint, which is susceptible to become overflowed
if a lot of volatile inodes that use get_next_ino are created.
- It's global, with no specificity per-sb or even per-filesystem. This
means it's not that difficult to cause inode number wraparounds on a
single device, which can result in having multiple distinct inodes
with the same inode number.
This patch adds a per-superblock counter that mitigates the second case.
This design also allows us to later have a specific i_ino size per-device,
for example, allowing users to choose whether to use 32- or 64-bit inodes
for each tmpfs mount. This is implemented in the next commit.
For internal shmem mounts which may be less tolerant to spinlock delays,
we implement a percpu batching scheme which only takes the stat_lock at
each batch boundary.

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
"Lots of cleanups in here, hardening the code and/or making it easier
to read and fixing bugs, but a core feature/change too adding support
for real async buffered reads. With the latter in place, we just need
buffered write async support and we're done relying on kthreads for
the fast path. In detail:
- Cleanup how memory accounting is done on ring setup/free (Bijan)
- sq array offset calculation fixup (Dmitry)
- Consistently handle blocking off O_DIRECT submission path (me)
- Support proper async buffered reads, instead of relying on kthread
offload for that. This uses the page waitqueue to drive retries
from task_work, like we handle poll based retry. (me)
- IO completion optimizations (me)
- Fix race with accounting and ring fd install (me)

Pull fscrypt updates from Eric Biggers:
"This release, we add support for inline encryption via the blk-crypto
framework which was added in 5.8.
Now when an ext4 or f2fs filesystem is mounted with '-o inlinecrypt',
the contents of encrypted files will be encrypted/decrypted via
blk-crypto, instead of directly using the crypto API. This model
allows taking advantage of the inline encryption hardware that is
integrated into the UFS or eMMC host controllers on most mobile SoCs.
Note that this is just an alternate implementation; the ciphertext
written to disk stays the same.
(This pull request does *not* include support for direct I/O on
encrypted files, which blk-crypto makes possible, since that part is
still being discussed.)
Besides the above feature update, there are also a few fixes and
cleanups, e.g. strengthening some memory barriers that may be too
weak.
All these patches have been in linux-next with no reported issues.
I've also tested them with the fscrypt xfstests, as usual. It's also
been tested that the inline encryption support works with the support
for Qualcomm and Mediatek inline encryption hardware that will be in
the scsi pull request for 5.9. Also, several SoC vendors are already
using a previous, functionally equivalent version of these patches"

Normally waiting for a page to become unlocked, or locking the page,
requires waiting for IO to complete. Add support for lock_page_async()
and wait_on_page_locked_async(), which are callback based instead. This
allows a caller to get notified when a page becomes unlocked, rather
than wait for it.
We add a new iocb field, ki_waitq, to pass in the necessary data for this
to happen. We can unionize this with ki_cookie, since that is only used
for polled IO. Polled IO can never co-exist with async callbacks, as it is
(by definition) polled completions. struct wait_page_key is made public,
and we define struct wait_page_async as the interface between the caller
and the core.

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.

Inode's i_io_list list head is used to attach inode to several different
lists - wb->{b_dirty, b_dirty_time, b_io, b_more_io}. When flush worker
prepares a list of inodes to writeback e.g. for sync(2), it moves inodes
to b_io list. Thus it is critical for sync(2) data integrity guarantees
that inode is not requeued to any other writeback list when inode is
queued for processing by flush worker. That's the reason why
writeback_single_inode() does not touch i_io_list (unless the inode is
completely clean) and why __mark_inode_dirty() does not touch i_io_list
if I_SYNC flag is set.
However there are two flaws in the current logic:
1) When inode has only I_DIRTY_TIME set but it is already queued in b_io
list due to sync(2), concurrent __mark_inode_dirty(inode, I_DIRTY_SYNC)
can still move inode back to b_dirty list resulting in skipping
writeback of inode time stamps during sync(2).
2) When inode is on b_dirty_time list and writeback_single_inode() races
with __mark_inode_dirty() like:
writeback_single_inode() __mark_inode_dirty(inode, I_DIRTY_PAGES)
inode->i_state |= I_SYNC
__writeback_single_inode()
inode->i_state |= I_DIRTY_PAGES;
if (inode->i_state & I_SYNC)
bail
if (!(inode->i_state & I_DIRTY_ALL))
- not true so nothing done
We end up with I_DIRTY_PAGES inode on b_dirty_time list and thus
standard background writeback will not writeback this inode leading to
possible dirty throttling stalls etc. (thanks to Martijn Coenen for this
analysis).
Fix these problems by tracking whether inode is queued in b_io or
b_more_io lists in a new I_SYNC_QUEUED flag. When this flag is set, we
know flush worker has queued inode and we should not touch i_io_list.
On the other hand we also know that once flush worker is done with the
inode it will requeue the inode to appropriate dirty list. When
I_SYNC_QUEUED is not set, __mark_inode_dirty() can (and must) move inode
to appropriate dirty list.
