Pull inode->i_version rework from Jeff Layton:
"This pile of patches is a rework of the inode->i_version field. We
have traditionally incremented that field on every inode data or
metadata change. Typically this increment needs to be logged on disk
even when nothing else has changed, which is rather expensive.
It turns out though that none of the consumers of that field actually
require this behavior. The only real requirement for all of them is
that it be different iff the inode has changed since the last time the
field was checked.
Given that, we can optimize away most of the i_version increments and
avoid dirtying inode metadata when the only change is to the i_version
and no one is querying it. Queries of the i_version field are rather
rare, so we can help write performance under many common workloads.
This patch series converts existing accesses of the i_version field to
a new API, and then converts all of the in-kernel filesystems to use
it. The last patch in the series then converts the backend
implementation to a scheme that optimizes away a large portion of the
metadata updates when no one is looking at it.
In my own testing this series significantly helps performance with
small I/O sizes. I also got this email for Christmas this year from
the kernel test robot (a 244% r/w bandwidth improvement with XFS over
DAX, with 4k writes):
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/25/8
A few of the earlier patches in this pile are also flowing to you via
other trees (mm, integrity, and nfsd trees in particular)".

1/ remove 'start' and 'end' args from nfs_file_fsync_commit().
They aren't used.
2/ Make nfs_context_set_write_error() a "static inline" in internal.h
so we can...
3/ Use nfs_context_set_write_error() instead of mapping_set_error()
if nfs_pageio_add_request() fails before sending any request.
NFS generally keeps errors in the open_context, not the mapping,
so this is more consistent.
4/ If filemap_write_and_write_range() reports any error, still
check ctx->error. The value in ctx->error is likely to be
more useful. As part of this, NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE is
cleared slightly earlier, before nfs_file_fsync_commit() is called,
rather than at the start of that function.

Tools like tcpdump and rpcdebug can be very useful. But there are
plenty of environments where they are difficult or impossible to
use. For example, we've had customers report I/O failures during
workloads so heavy that collecting network traffic or enabling
RPC debugging are themselves onerous.
The kernel's static tracepoints are lightweight (less likely to
introduce timing changes) and efficient (the trace data is compact).
They also work in scenarios where capturing network traffic is not
possible due to lack of hardware support (some InfiniBand HCAs) or
where data or network privacy is a concern.
Introduce tracepoints that show when an NFS READ, WRITE, or COMMIT
is initiated, and when it completes. Record the arguments and
results of each operation, which are not shown by existing sunrpc
module's tracepoints.
For instance, the recorded offset and count can be used to match an
"initiate" event to a "done" event. If an NFS READ result returns
fewer bytes than requested or zero, seeing the EOF flag can be
probative. Seeing an NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID result is also indication
of a particular class of problems. The timing information attached
to each event record can often be useful as well.
Usage example:
[root@manet tmp]# trace-cmd record -e nfs:*initiate* -e nfs:*done
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/nfs/*initiate*/filter
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/nfs/*done/filter
Hit Ctrl^C to stop recording
^CKernel buffer statistics:
Note: "entries" are the entries left in the kernel ring buffer and are not
recorded in the trace data. They should all be zero.
CPU: 0
entries: 0
overrun: 0
commit overrun: 0
bytes: 3680
oldest event ts: 78.367422
now ts: 100.124419
dropped events: 0
read events: 74

Since nfs_page_group_destroy() does not take any locks on the requests
to be freed, we need to ensure that we don't inadvertently free the
request in nfs_destroy_unlinked_subrequests() while the last reference
is being released elsewhere.
Do this by:
1) Taking a reference to the request unless it is already being freed
2) Checking (under the page group lock) if PG_TEARDOWN is already set before
freeing an unreferenced request in nfs_destroy_unlinked_subrequests()
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>
When locking the entire group in order to remove subrequests,
the locks are always taken in order, and with the page group
lock being taken after the page head is locked. The intention
is that:
1) The lock on the group head guarantees that requests may not
be removed from the group (although new entries could be appended
if we're not holding the group lock).
2) It is safe to drop and retake the page group lock while iterating
through the list, in particular when waiting for a subrequest lock.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>
We should no longer need the inode->i_lock, now that we've
straightened out the request locking. The locking schema is now:
1) Lock page head request
2) Lock the page group
3) Lock the subrequests one by one
Note that there is a subtle race with nfs_inode_remove_request() due
to the fact that the latter does not lock the page head, when removing
it from the struct page. Only the last subrequest is locked, hence
we need to re-check that the PagePrivate(page) is still set after
we've locked all the subrequests.

When passed GFP flags that allow sleeping (such as
GFP_NOIO), mempool_alloc() will never return NULL, it will
wait until memory is available.
This means that we don't need to handle failure, but that we
do need to ensure one thread doesn't call mempool_alloc()
twice on the one pool without queuing or freeing the first
allocation. If multiple threads did this during times of
high memory pressure, the pool could be exhausted and a
deadlock could result.
pnfs_generic_alloc_ds_commits() attempts to allocate from
the nfs_commit_mempool while already holding an allocation
from that pool. This is not safe. So change
nfs_commitdata_alloc() to take a flag that indicates whether
failure is acceptable.
In pnfs_generic_alloc_ds_commits(), accept failure and
handle it as we currently do. Else where, do not accept
failure, and do not handle it.
Even when failure is acceptable, we want to succeed if
possible. That means both
- using an entry from the pool if there is one
- waiting for direct reclaim is there isn't.
We call mempool_alloc(GFP_NOWAIT) to achieve the first, then
kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_NOIO|__GFP_NORETRY) to achieve the
second. Each of these can fail, but together they do the
best they can without blocking indefinitely.
The objects returned by kmem_cache_alloc() will still be freed
by mempool_free(). This is safe as mempool_alloc() uses
exactly the same function to allocate objects (since the mempool
was created with mempool_create_slab_pool()). The object returned
by mempool_alloc() and kmem_cache_alloc() are indistinguishable
so mempool_free() will handle both identically, either adding to the
pool or calling kmem_cache_free().
Also, don't test for failure when allocating from
nfs_wdata_mempool.

Since commit 4f52b6bb ("NFS: Don't call COMMIT in ->releasepage()"),
no tasks wait on PagePrivate, so the wake introduced in commit 95905446
("NFS: avoid deadlocks with loop-back mounted NFS filesystems.") can
be removed.
