Ext4 contains a few functions that are used to search for delayed extents or blocks in the extents status tree. Rather than duplicate code to add new functions to search for extents with different status values, such as written or a combination of delayed and unwritten, generalize the existing code to search for caller-specified extents status values. Also, move this code into extents_status.c where it is better associated with the data structures it operates upon, and where it can be more readily used to implement new extents status tree functions that might want a broader scope for i_es_lock.

2018-09-11ext4: close race between direct IO and ext4_break_layouts()Ross Zwisler1-6/+3
If the refcount of a page is lowered between the time that it is returned by dax_busy_page() and when the refcount is again checked in ext4_break_layouts() => ___wait_var_event(), the waiting function ext4_wait_dax_page() will never be called. This means that ext4_break_layouts() will still have 'retry' set to false, so we'll stop looping and never check the refcount of other pages in this inode. Instead, always continue looping as long as dax_layout_busy_page() gives us a page which it found with an elevated refcount.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were several late changes that have only now just settled. Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f145 ("fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases. The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment. The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight. A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for 4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot over 156 configs. An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and passing all unit tests. The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event() functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will need to wait for 4.18. Summary: - A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection of unmap operations (truncate / hole punch) colliding with in-progress device-DMA. A fix for these collisions remains a work-in-progress pending resolution of truncate latency and starvation regressions. - The of_pmem driver expands the users of libnvdimm outside of x86 and ACPI to describe an implementation of persistent memory on PowerPC with Open Firmware / Device tree. - Address Range Scrub (ARS) handling is completely rewritten to account for the fact that ARS may run for 100s of seconds and there is no platform defined way to cancel it. ARS will now no longer block namespace initialization. - The NVDIMM Namespace Label implementation is updated to handle label areas as small as 1K, down from 128K. - Miscellaneous cleanups and updates to unit test infrastructure" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (39 commits) libnvdimm, of_pmem: workaround OF_NUMA=n build error nfit, address-range-scrub: add module option to skip initial ars nfit, address-range-scrub: rework and simplify ARS state machine nfit, address-range-scrub: determine one platform max_ars value powerpc/powernv: Create platform devs for nvdimm buses doc/devicetree: Persistent memory region bindings libnvdimm: Add device-tree based driver libnvdimm: Add of_node to region and bus descriptors libnvdimm, region: quiet region probe libnvdimm, namespace: use a safe lookup for dimm device name libnvdimm, dimm: fix dpa reservation vs uninitialized label area libnvdimm, testing: update the default smart ctrl_temperature libnvdimm, testing: Add emulation for smart injection commands nfit, address-range-scrub: introduce nfit_spa->ars_state libnvdimm: add an api to cast a 'struct nd_region' to its 'struct device' nfit, address-range-scrub: fix scrub in-progress reporting dax, dm: allow device-mapper to operate without dax support dax: introduce CONFIG_DAX_DRIVER fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn if truncate collides with a busy page ext2, dax: introduce ext2_dax_aops ...

2018-03-22ext4: update i_disksize if direct write past ondisk sizeEryu Guan1-3/+5
Currently in ext4 direct write path, we update i_disksize only when new eof is greater than i_size, and don't update it even when new eof is greater than i_disksize but less than i_size. This doesn't work well with delalloc buffer write, which updates i_size and i_disksize only when delalloc blocks are resolved (at writeback time), the i_disksize from direct write can be lost if a previous buffer write succeeded at write time but failed at writeback time, then results in corrupted ondisk inode size. Consider this case, first buffer write 4k data to a new file at offset 16k with delayed allocation, then direct write 4k data to the same file at offset 4k before delalloc blocks are resolved, which doesn't update i_disksize because it writes within i_size(20k), but the extent tree metadata has been committed in journal. Then writeback of the delalloc blocks fails (due to device error etc.), and i_size/i_disksize from buffer write can't be written to disk (still zero). A subsequent umount/mount cycle recovers journal and writes extent tree metadata from direct write to disk, but with i_disksize being zero. Fix it by updating i_disksize too in direct write path when new eof is greater than i_disksize but less than i_size, so i_disksize is always consistent with direct write.

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)". * tag 'iversion-v4.16-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux: (22 commits) fs: handle inode->i_version more efficiently btrfs: only dirty the inode in btrfs_update_time if something was changed xfs: avoid setting XFS_ILOG_CORE if i_version doesn't need incrementing fs: only set S_VERSION when updating times if necessary IMA: switch IMA over to new i_version API xfs: convert to new i_version API ufs: use new i_version API ocfs2: convert to new i_version API nfsd: convert to new i_version API nfs: convert to new i_version API ext4: convert to new i_version API ext2: convert to new i_version API exofs: switch to new i_version API btrfs: convert to new i_version API afs: convert to new i_version API affs: convert to new i_version API fat: convert to new i_version API fs: don't take the i_lock in inode_inc_iversion fs: new API for handling inode->i_version ntfs: remove i_version handling ...

Add a documentation blob that explains what the i_version field is, how it is expected to work, and how it is currently implemented by various filesystems. We already have inode_inc_iversion. Add several other functions for manipulating and accessing the i_version counter. For now, the implementation is trivial and basically works the way that all of the open-coded i_version accesses work today. Future patches will convert existing users of i_version to use the new API, and then convert the backend implementation to do things more efficiently.

2018-01-10ext4: fix a race in the ext4 shutdown pathHarshad Shirwadkar1-4/+12
This patch fixes a race between the shutdown path and bio completion handling. In the ext4 direct io path with async io, after submitting a bio to the block layer, if journal starting fails, ext4_direct_IO_write() would bail out pretending that the IO failed. The caller would have had no way of knowing whether or not the IO was successfully submitted. So instead, we return -EIOCBQUEUED in this case. Now, the caller knows that the IO was submitted. The bio completion handler takes care of the error. Tested: Ran the shutdown xfstest test 461 in loop for over 2 hours across 4 machines resulting in over 400 runs. Verified that the race didn't occur. Usually the race was seen in about 20-30 iterations.

407cd7fb83c0 (ext4: change fast symlink test to not rely on i_blocks) broke ~10 years old ext3 file systems created by 2.6.17. Any ELF executable fails because the /lib/ld-linux.so.2 fast symlink cannot be read anymore. The patch assumed fast symlinks were created in a specific way, but that's not true on these really old file systems. The new behavior is apparently needed only with the large EA inode feature. Revert to the old behavior if the large EA inode feature is not set. This makes my old VM boot again.

An xfstest for the MAP_SYNC feature has been through a few round of reviews and is on track to be merged. - Introduce MAP_SYNC and MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to enable 'userspace flush' of persistent memory updates via filesystem-dax mappings. It arranges for any filesystem metadata updates that may be required to satisfy a write fault to also be flushed ("on disk") before the kernel returns to userspace from the fault handler. Effectively every write-fault that dirties metadata completes an fsync() before returning from the fault handler. The new MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE mapping type guarantees that the MAP_SYNC flag is validated as supported by the filesystem's ->mmap() file operation. - Add support for the standard ACPI 6.2 label access methods that replace the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL (vendor specific) label methods.

2017-11-13fs, dax: unify IOMAP_F_DIRTY read vs write handling policy in the dax coreDan Williams1-1/+1
While reviewing whether MAP_SYNC should strengthen its current guarantee of syncing writes from the initiating process to also include third-party readers observing dirty metadata, Dave pointed out that the check of IOMAP_WRITE is misplaced. The policy of what to with IOMAP_F_DIRTY should be separated from the generic filesystem mechanism of reporting dirty metadata. Move this policy to the fs-dax core to simplify the per-filesystem iomap handlers, and further centralize code that implements the MAP_SYNC policy. This otherwise should not change behavior, it just makes it easier to change behavior in the future.

2017-11-03ext4: Support for synchronous DAX faultsJan Kara1-0/+15
We return IOMAP_F_DIRTY flag from ext4_iomap_begin() when asked to prepare blocks for writing and the inode has some uncommitted metadata changes. In the fault handler ext4_dax_fault() we then detect this case (through VM_FAULT_NEEDDSYNC return value) and call helper dax_finish_sync_fault() to flush metadata changes and insert page table entry. Note that this will also dirty corresponding radix tree entry which is what we want - fsync(2) will still provide data integrity guarantees for applications not using userspace flushing. And applications using userspace flushing can avoid calling fsync(2) and thus avoid the performance overhead.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. 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.
