Since the introduction of FAULT_FLAG_SIZE to the vm_fault flag, it has
been somewhat painful with getting the flags set and removed at the
correct locations. More than one kernel oops was introduced due to
difficulties of getting the placement correctly.
Remove the flag values and introduce an input parameter to huge_fault
that indicates the size of the page entry. This makes the code easier
to trace and should avoid the issues we see with the fault flags where
removal of the flag was necessary in the fallback paths.

Patch series "1G transparent hugepage support for device dax", v2.
The following series implements support for 1G trasparent hugepage on
x86 for device dax. The bulk of the code was written by Mathew Wilcox a
while back supporting transparent 1G hugepage for fs DAX. I have
forward ported the relevant bits to 4.10-rc. The current submission has
only the necessary code to support device DAX.
Comments from Dan Williams: So the motivation and intended user of this
functionality mirrors the motivation and users of 1GB page support in
hugetlbfs. Given expected capacities of persistent memory devices an
in-memory database may want to reduce tlb pressure beyond what they can
already achieve with 2MB mappings of a device-dax file. We have
customer feedback to that effect as Willy mentioned in his previous
version of these patches [1].
[1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/31/52
Comments from Nilesh @ Oracle:
There are applications which have a process model; and if you assume
10,000 processes attempting to mmap all the 6TB memory available on a
server; we are looking at the following:
processes : 10,000
memory : 6TB
pte @ 4k page size: 8 bytes / 4K of memory * #processes = 6TB / 4k * 8 * 10000 = 1.5GB * 80000 = 120,000GB
pmd @ 2M page size: 120,000 / 512 = ~240GB
pud @ 1G page size: 240GB / 512 = ~480MB
As you can see with 2M pages, this system will use up an exorbitant
amount of DRAM to hold the page tables; but the 1G pages finally brings
it down to a reasonable level. Memory sizes will keep increasing; so
this number will keep increasing.
An argument can be made to convert the applications from process model
to thread model, but in the real world that may not be always practical.
Hopefully this helps explain the use case where this is valuable.
This patch (of 3):
In preparation for adding the ability to handle PUD pages, convert
vm_operations_struct.pmd_fault to vm_operations_struct.huge_fault. The
vm_fault structure is extended to include a union of the different page
table pointers that may be needed, and three flag bits are reserved to
indicate which type of pointer is in the union.

a vmf can be passed in just like a fault() handler. This will simplify

Remove the unused wrappers dax_fault() and dax_pmd_fault(). After this
removal, rename __dax_fault() and __dax_pmd_fault() to dax_fault() and
dax_pmd_fault() respectively, and update all callers.
The dax_fault() and dax_pmd_fault() wrappers were initially intended to
capture some filesystem independent functionality around page faults
(calling sb_start_pagefault() & sb_end_pagefault(), updating file mtime
and ctime).
However, the following commits:
5726b27b09 ("ext2: Add locking for DAX faults")
ea3d7209ca ("ext4: fix races between page faults and hole punching")
added locking to the ext2 and ext4 filesystems after these common
operations but before __dax_fault() and __dax_pmd_fault() were called.
This means that these wrappers are no longer used, and are unlikely to
be used in the future.
XFS has had locking analogous to what was recently added to ext2 and
ext4 since DAX support was initially introduced by:
6b698edeee ("xfs: add DAX file operations support")

Currently ext4 treats DAX IO the same way as direct IO. I.e., it
allocates unwritten extents before IO is done and converts unwritten
extents afterwards. However this way DAX IO can race with page fault to
the same area:
ext4_ext_direct_IO() dax_fault()
dax_io()
get_block() - allocates unwritten extent
copy_from_iter_pmem()
get_block() - converts
unwritten block to

out
ext4_convert_unwritten_extents()
So data written with DAX IO gets lost. Similarly dax_new_buf() called
from dax_io() can overwrite data that has been already written to the
block via mmap.
Fix the problem by using pre-zeroed blocks for DAX IO the same way as we
use them for DAX mmap. The downside of this solution is that every
allocating write writes each block twice (once zeros, once data). Fixing
the race with locking is possible as well however we would need to
lock-out faults for the whole range written to by DAX IO. And that is
not easy to do without locking-out faults for the whole file which seems
too aggressive.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
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.

Using SEEK_DATA in a huge sparse file can easily lead to sotflockups as
ext4_seek_data() iterates hole block-by-block. Fix the problem by using
returned hole size from ext4_map_blocks() and thus skip the hole in one
go.
Update also SEEK_HOLE implementation to follow the same pattern as
SEEK_DATA to make future maintenance easier.
Furthermore we add cond_resched() to both ext4_seek_data() and
ext4_seek_hole() to avoid softlockups in case evil user creates huge
fragmented file and we have to go through lots of extents.

Currently we've used hashed aio_mutex to serialize unaligned AIO DIO.
However the code cleanups that happened after 2011 when the lock was
introduced made aio_mutex acquired at almost the same places where we
already have exclusion using i_mutex. So just use i_mutex for the
exclusion of unaligned AIO DIO.
The change moves waiting for pending unwritten extent conversion under
i_mutex. That makes special handling of O_APPEND writes unnecessary and
also avoids possible livelocking of unaligned AIO DIO with aligned one
(nothing was preventing contiguous stream of aligned AIO DIOs to let
unaligned AIO DIO wait forever).

As it is currently written ext4_dax_mkwrite() assumes that the call into
__dax_mkwrite() will not have to do a block allocation so it doesn't create
a journal entry. For a read that creates a zero page to cover a hole
followed by a write that actually allocates storage this is incorrect. The
ext4_dax_mkwrite() -> __dax_mkwrite() -> __dax_fault() path calls
get_blocks() to allocate storage.
Fix this by having the ->page_mkwrite fault handler call ext4_dax_fault()
as this function already has all the logic needed to allocate a journal
entry and call __dax_fault().
Also update the ext2 fault handlers in this same way to remove duplicate
code and keep the logic between ext2 and ext4 the same.

Make DAX fault path use pre-zeroed blocks to avoid races with extent

Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Currently, page faults and hole punching are completely unsynchronized.
This can result in page fault faulting in a page into a range that we
are punching after truncate_pagecache_range() has been called and thus
we can end up with a page mapped to disk blocks that will be shortly
freed. Filesystem corruption will shortly follow. Note that the same
race is avoided for truncate by checking page fault offset against
i_size but there isn't similar mechanism available for punching holes.
Fix the problem by creating new rw semaphore i_mmap_sem in inode and
grab it for writing over truncate, hole punching, and other functions
removing blocks from extent tree and for read over page faults. We
cannot easily use i_data_sem for this since that ranks below transaction
start and we need something ranking above it so that it can be held over
the whole truncate / hole punching operation. Also remove various
workarounds we had in the code to reduce race window when page fault
could have created pages with stale mapping information.

Jan Kara pointed out that in the case where we are writing to a hole, we
can end up with a lock inversion between the page lock and the journal
lock. We can avoid this by starting the transaction in ext4 before
calling into DAX. The journal lock nests inside the superblock
pagefault lock, so we have to duplicate that code from dax_fault, like
XFS does.

DAX wants different semantics from any currently-existing ext4 get_block

return unwritten extents. So introduce a new ext4_get_block_dax() which
has those semantics.

dax_fault() currently relies on the get_block callback to attach an
io completion callback to the mapping buffer head so that it can
run unwritten extent conversion after zeroing allocated blocks.
Instead of this hack, pass the conversion callback directly into
dax_fault() similar to the get_block callback. When the filesystem
allocates unwritten extents, it will set the buffer_unwritten()
flag, and hence the dax_fault code can call the completion function
in the contexts where it is necessary without overloading the
mapping buffer head.
Note: The changes to ext4 to use this interface are suspect at best.
In fact, the way ext4 did this end_io assignment in the first place
looks suspect because it only set a completion callback when there
wasn't already some other write() call taking place on the same
inode. The ext4 end_io code looks rather intricate and fragile with
all it's reference counting and passing to different contexts for
modification via inode private pointers that aren't protected by
locks...
