Christoph Hellwig aacfc19c62 fs: simplify the blockdev_direct_IO prototype
Simple filesystems always pass inode->i_sb_bdev as the block device
argument, and never need a end_io handler.  Let's simply things for
them and for my grepping activity by dropping these arguments.  The
only thing not falling into that scheme is ext4, which passes and
end_io handler without needing special flags (yet), but given how
messy the direct I/O code there is use of __blockdev_direct_IO
in one instead of two out of three cases isn't going to make a large
difference anyway.

Christoph Hellwig 562c72aa57 fs: move inode_dio_wait calls into ->setattr
Let filesystems handle waiting for direct I/O requests themselves instead
of doing it beforehand.  This means filesystem-specific locks to prevent
new dio referenes from appearing can be held.  This is important to allow
generalizing i_dio_count to non-DIO_LOCKING filesystems.

Ryusuke Konishi 071d73cfe5 nilfs2: fix problem in setting checkpoint interval
Checkpoint generation interval of nilfs goes wrong after user has
changed the interval parameter with nilfs-tune tool.

 segctord starting. Construction interval = 5 seconds,
 CP frequency < 30 seconds
 segctord starting. Construction interval = 0 seconds,

This turned out to be caused by a trivial bug in initialization code

Ryusuke Konishi d40990537c nilfs2: fix missing block address termination in btree node shrinking
nilfs_btree_delete function does not terminate part of virtual block
addresses when shrinking the last remaining child node into the root
node.  The missing address termination causes that dead btree node
blocks persist and chip away free disk space.

Ryusuke Konishi fe744fdb74 nilfs2: fix incorrect block address termination in node concatenation
nilfs_btree_delete function wrongly terminates virtual block address
of the btree node held by its parent at index 0.  When concatenating
the index-0 node with its right sibling node, nilfs_btree_delete
terminates the block address of index-0 node instead of the right
sibling node which should be deleted.

This bug not only wears disk space in the long run, but also causes
file system corruption.  This will fix it.

Christoph Hellwig aa38572954 fs: pass exact type of data dirties to ->dirty_inode
Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or
anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it
needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not.

This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet.  I plan
to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting
this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid
tree interdependencies.

Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block.  That
has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.

Ryusuke Konishi 1cb2d38cb3 nilfs2: get rid of private page allocator
Previously, nilfs was cloning pages for mmapped region to freeze their
data and ensure consistency of checksum during writeback cycles.  A
private page allocator was used for this page cloning.  But, we no
longer need to do that since clear_page_dirty_for_io function sets up
pte so that vm_ops->page_mkwrite function is called right before the
mmapped pages are modified and nilfs_page_mkwrite function can safely
wait for the pages to be written back to disk.

So, this stops making a copy of mmapped pages during writeback, and
eliminates the private page allocation and deallocation functions from
nilfs.

This oops was brought in by the change "block: remove per-queue
plugging" (commit: 7eaceaccab).  It initializes mapping->a_ops
with a NULL pointer for some pages in nilfs (e.g. btree node pages),
but mm code doesn't NULL pointer checks against mapping->a_ops. (the
check is done for each callback function)

This corrects the aops initialization and fixes the oops.

Ryusuke Konishi 3409453794 nilfs2: fix data loss in mmap page write for hole blocks
From the result of a function test of mmap, mmap write to shared pages
turned out to be broken for hole blocks.  It doesn't write out filled
blocks and the data will be lost after umount.  This is due to a bug
that the target file is not queued for log writer when filling hole
blocks.

Also, nilfs_page_mkwrite function exits normal code path even after
successfully filled hole blocks due to a change of block_page_mkwrite
function; just after nilfs was merged into the mainline,
block_page_mkwrite() started to return VM_FAULT_LOCKED instead of zero
by the patch "mm: close page_mkwrite races" (commit:
b827e496c8).  The current nilfs_page_mkwrite() is not handling
this value properly.

This corrects nilfs_page_mkwrite() and will resolve the data loss
problem in mmap write.

[This should be applied to every kernel since 2.6.30 but a fix is
 needed for 2.6.37 and prior kernels]

With the plugging now being explicitly controlled by the

Ryusuke Konishi e3154e9748 nilfs2: get rid of nilfs_sb_info structure
This directly uses sb->s_fs_info to keep a nilfs filesystem object and
fully removes the intermediate nilfs_sb_info structure.  With this
change, the hierarchy of on-memory structures of nilfs will be
simplified as follows:

Before:
  super_block
       -> nilfs_sb_info
             -> the_nilfs
                   -> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system)
                               +-> nilfs_root (snapshot A)
                               +-> nilfs_root (snapshot B)
                               :
             -> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure)
After:
  super_block
       -> the_nilfs
             -> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system)
                         +-> nilfs_root (snapshot A)
                         +-> nilfs_root (snapshot B)
                         :
             -> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure)

The reason why we didn't design so from the beginning is because the
initial shape also differed from the above.  The early hierachy was
composed of "per-mount-point" super_block -> nilfs_sb_info pairs and a
shared nilfs object.  On the kernel 2.6.37, it was changed to the
current shape in order to unify super block instances into one per
device, and this cleanup became applicable as the result.

like ext2/3/4 filesystems used to be.  Specifically DIRSYNC may only
be set on directories and IMMUTABLE and APPEND may not be set on

and only NODUMP and NOATIME to be set on non-regular file,
non-directories.

Ryusuke Konishi 72746ac643 nilfs2: fix regression that i-flag is not set on changeless checkpoints
According to the report from Jiro SEKIBA titled "regression in
2.6.37?"  (Message-Id: <8739n8vs1f.wl%jir@sekiba.com>), on 2.6.37 and
later kernels, lscp command no longer displays "i" flag on checkpoints
that snapshot operations or garbage collection created.

This is a regression of nilfs2 checkpointing function, and it's
critical since it broke behavior of a part of nilfs2 applications.
For instance, snapshot manager of TimeBrowse gets to create
meaningless snapshots continuously; snapshot creation triggers another
checkpoint, but applications cannot distinguish whether the new
checkpoint contains meaningful changes or not without the i-flag.

This patch fixes the regression and brings that application behavior
back to normal.

Miklos Szeredi 2aa15890f3 mm: prevent concurrent unmap_mapping_range() on the same inode
Michael Leun reported that running parallel opens on a fuse filesystem
can trigger a "kernel BUG at mm/truncate.c:475"

Gurudas Pai reported the same bug on NFS.

The reason is, unmap_mapping_range() is not prepared for more than
one concurrent invocation per inode.  For example:

  thread1: going through a big range, stops in the middle of a vma and
     stores the restart address in vm_truncate_count.

  thread2: comes in with a small (e.g. single page) unmap request on
     the same vma, somewhere before restart_address, finds that the
     vma was already unmapped up to the restart address and happily
     returns without doing anything.

Another scenario would be two big unmap requests, both having to
restart the unmapping and each one setting vm_truncate_count to its
own value.  This could go on forever without any of them being able to
finish.

Truncate and hole punching already serialize with i_mutex.  Other
callers of unmap_mapping_range() do not, and it's difficult to get
i_mutex protection for all callers.  In particular ->d_revalidate(),
which calls invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in fuse, may be called
with or without i_mutex.

This patch adds a new mutex to 'struct address_space' to prevent
running multiple concurrent unmap_mapping_range() on the same mapping.

[ We'll hopefully get rid of all this with the upcoming mm
  preemptibility series by Peter Zijlstra, the "mm: Remove i_mmap_mutex
  lockbreak" patch in particular.  But that is for 2.6.39 ]

Nick Piggin fa0d7e3de6 fs: icache RCU free inodes
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:

- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
  permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
  to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
  the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
  page lock to follow page->mapping.

The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.

In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.

The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

On 2.6.37-rc1, garbage collection ioctl of nilfs was broken due to the
commit 263d90cefc ("nilfs2: remove own inode hash used for GC"),
and leading to filesystem corruption.

The patch doesn't queue gc-inodes for log writer if they are reused
through the vfs inode cache.  Here, gc-inode is the inode which
buffers blocks to be relocated on GC.  That patch queues gc-inodes in
nilfs_init_gcinode() function, but this function is not called when
they don't have I_NEW flag.  Thus, some of live blocks are wrongly
overrode without being moved to new logs.

This resolves the problem by moving the gc-inode queueing to an outer
function to ensure it's done right.

Tejun Heo d4d7762995 block: clean up blkdev_get() wrappers and their users
After recent blkdev_get() modifications, open_by_devnum() and
open_bdev_exclusive() are simple wrappers around blkdev_get().
Replace them with blkdev_get_by_dev() and blkdev_get_by_path().

blkdev_get_by_dev() is identical to open_by_devnum().
blkdev_get_by_path() is slightly different in that it doesn't
automatically add %FMODE_EXCL to @mode.

All users are converted.  Most conversions are mechanical and don't
introduce any behavior difference.  There are several exceptions.

* btrfs now sets FMODE_EXCL in btrfs_device->mode, so there's no
  reason to OR it explicitly on blkdev_put().

* gfs2, nilfs2 and the generic mount_bdev() now set FMODE_EXCL in
  sb->s_mode.

* With the above changes, sb->s_mode now always should contain
  FMODE_EXCL.  WARN_ON_ONCE() added to kill_block_super() to detect
  errors.

The new blkdev_get_*() functions are with proper docbook comments.
While at it, add function description to blkdev_get() too.

Tejun Heo e525fd89d3 block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive access
Over time, block layer has accumulated a set of APIs dealing with bdev
open, close, claim and release.

* blkdev_get/put() are the primary open and close functions.

* bd_claim/release() deal with exclusive open.

* open/close_bdev_exclusive() are combination of open and claim and
  the other way around, respectively.

* bd_link/unlink_disk_holder() to create and remove holder/slave
  symlinks.

* open_by_devnum() wraps bdget() + blkdev_get().

The interface is a bit confusing and the decoupling of open and claim
makes it impossible to properly guarantee exclusive access as
in-kernel open + claim sequence can disturb the existing exclusive
open even before the block layer knows the current open if for another
exclusive access.  Reorganize the interface such that,

* blkdev_get() is extended to include exclusive access management.
  @holder argument is added and, if is @FMODE_EXCL specified, it will
  gain exclusive access atomically w.r.t. other exclusive accesses.

* blkdev_put() is similarly extended.  It now takes @mode argument and
  if @FMODE_EXCL is set, it releases an exclusive access.  Also, when
  the last exclusive claim is released, the holder/slave symlinks are
  removed automatically.

* bd_claim/release() and close_bdev_exclusive() are no longer
  necessary and either made static or removed.

* bd_link_disk_holder() remains the same but bd_unlink_disk_holder()
  is no longer necessary and removed.

* open_bdev_exclusive() becomes a simple wrapper around lookup_bdev()
  and blkdev_get().  It also has an unexpected extra bdev_read_only()
  test which probably should be moved into blkdev_get().

* open_by_devnum() is modified to take @holder argument and pass it to
  blkdev_get().

Most of bdev open/close operations are unified into blkdev_get/put()
and most exclusive accesses are tested atomically at the open time (as
it should).  This cleans up code and removes some, both valid and
invalid, but unnecessary all the same, corner cases.

open_bdev_exclusive() and open_by_devnum() can use further cleanup -
rename to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_get_by_devt() and drop
special features.  Well, let's leave them for another day.

Most conversions are straight-forward.  drbd conversion is a bit more
involved as there was some reordering, but the logic should stay the
same.

Michael Rubin f629d1c9bd mm: add account_page_writeback()
To help developers and applications gain visibility into writeback
behaviour this patch adds two counters to /proc/vmstat.

  # grep nr_dirtied /proc/vmstat
  nr_dirtied 3747
  # grep nr_written /proc/vmstat
  nr_written 3618

These entries allow user apps to understand writeback behaviour over time
and learn how it is impacting their performance.  Currently there is no
way to inspect dirty and writeback speed over time.  It's not possible for
nr_dirty/nr_writeback.

These entries are necessary to give visibility into writeback behaviour.
We have /proc/diskstats which lets us understand the io in the block
layer.  We have blktrace for more in depth understanding.  We have
e2fsprogs and debugsfs to give insight into the file systems behaviour,
but we don't offer our users the ability understand what writeback is
doing.  There is no way to know how active it is over the whole system, if
it's falling behind or to quantify it's efforts.  With these values
exported users can easily see how much data applications are sending
through writeback and also at what rates writeback is processing this
data.  Comparing the rates of change between the two allow developers to
see when writeback is not able to keep up with incoming traffic and the
rate of dirty memory being sent to the IO back end.  This allows folks to
understand their io workloads and track kernel issues.  Non kernel
engineers at Google often use these counters to solve puzzling performance
problems.

Patch #4 adds a pernode vmstat file with nr_dirtied and nr_written

Patch #5 add writeback thresholds to /proc/vmstat

Currently these values are in debugfs. But they should be promoted to
/proc since they are useful for developers who are writing databases
and file servers and are not debugging the kernel.

The output is as below:

 # grep threshold /proc/vmstat
 nr_pages_dirty_threshold 409111
 nr_pages_dirty_background_threshold 818223

This patch:

This allows code outside of the mm core to safely manipulate page
writeback state and not worry about the other accounting.  Not using these
routines means that some code will lose track of the accounting and we get
bugs.

Modify nilfs2 to use interface.

Ryusuke Konishi b1f6a4f294 nilfs2: add routines to redirect access to buffers of DAT file
During garbage collection (GC), DAT file, which converts virtual block
number to real block number, may return disk block number that is not
yet written to the device.

To avoid access to unwritten blocks, the current implementation stores
changes to the caches of GCDAT during GC and atomically commit the
changes into the DAT file after they are written to the device.

This patch, instead, adds a function that makes a copy of specified
buffer and stores it in nilfs_shadow_map, and a function to get the
backup copy as needed (nilfs_mdt_freeze_buffer and
nilfs_mdt_get_frozen_buffer respectively).

Before DAT changes block number in an entry block, it makes a copy and
redirect access to the buffer so that address conversion function
(i.e. nilfs_dat_translate) refers to the old address saved in the
copy.

This patch gives requisites for such redirection.

Ryusuke Konishi ebdfed4dc5 nilfs2: add routines to roll back state of DAT file
This adds optional function to metadata files which makes a copy of
bmap, page caches, and b-tree node cache, and rolls back to the copy
as needed.

This enhancement is intended to displace gcdat inode that provides a
similar function in a different way.

In this patch, nilfs_shadow_map structure is added to store a copy of
the foregoing states.  nilfs_mdt_setup_shadow_map relates this
structure to a metadata file.  And, nilfs_mdt_save_to_shadow_map() and
nilfs_mdt_restore_from_shadow_map() provides save and restore
functions respectively.  Finally, nilfs_mdt_clear_shadow_map() clears
states of nilfs_shadow_map.

The copy of b-tree node cache and page cache is made by duplicating
only dirty pages into corresponding caches in nilfs_shadow_map.  Their
restoration is done by clearing dirty pages from original caches and
by copying dirty pages back from nilfs_shadow_map.
