As per Andrew Mortons request, here's a set of documentation for the generic pipe_buf_operations hooks, the pipe, and pipe_buffer structures. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

The name 'pin' was badly chosen, it doesn't pin a pipe buffer in the most commonly used sense in the kernel. So change the name to 'confirm', after debating this issue with Hugh Dickins a bit. A good return from ->confirm() means that the buffer is really there, and that the contents are good. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

We need to move even more stuff into the header so that folks can use the splice_to_pipe() implementation instead of open-coding a lot of pipe knowledge (see relay implementation), so move to our own header file finally. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

A bit of a cheat, it actually just copies the data to userspace. But this makes the interface nice and symmetric and enables people to build on splice, with room for future improvement in performance. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

For direct splicing (or private splicing), the output may not be a file. So abstract out the handling into a specified actor function and put the data in the splice_desc structure earlier, so we can build on top of that. This is the first step in better splice handling for drivers, and also for implementing vmsplice _to_ user memory. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

There's really no reason it's below the first use of the pointer type, and it'll fail compilation for the network addition (for good reason). So move it up a bit. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Ocfs2 wants to implement it's own splice write actor so that it can better manage cluster / page locks. This lets us re-use the rest of splice write while only providing our own code where it's actually important.

Fields of struct pipe_buf_operations have not a precise layout (ie not optimized to fit cache lines nor reduce cache line ping pongs) The bufs[] array is *large* and is placed near the beginning of the structure, so all following fields have a large offset. This is unfortunate because many archs have smaller instructions when using small offsets relative to a base register. On x86 for example, 7 bits offsets have smaller instruction lengths. Moving bufs[] at the end of pipe_buf_operations permits all fields to have small offsets, and reduce text size, and icache pressure. # size vmlinux.pre vmlinux text data bss dec hex filename 3268989 664356 492196 4425541 438745 vmlinux.pre 3268765 664356 492196 4425317 438665 vmlinux So this patch reduces text size by 224 bytes on my x86_64 machine.

Nick says that the current construct isn't safe. This goes back to the original, but sets PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU on user pages as well as they all seem to be on the LRU in the first place. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Currently we rely on the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU flag being set correctly to know whether we need to fiddle with page LRU state after stealing it, however for some origins we just don't know if the page is on the LRU list or not. So remove PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU and do this check/add manually in pipe_to_file() instead. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

If SPLICE_F_GIFT is set, the user is basically giving this pages away to the kernel. That means we can steal them for eg page cache uses instead of copying it. The data must be properly page aligned and also a multiple of the page size in length. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

The pipe ->map() method uses kmap() to virtually map the pages, which is both slow and has known scalability issues on SMP. This patch enables atomic copying of pipe pages, by pre-faulting data and using kmap_atomic() instead. lmbench bw_pipe and lat_pipe measurements agree this is a Good Thing. Here are results from that on a UP machine with highmem (1.5GiB of RAM), running first a UP kernel, SMP kernel, and SMP kernel patched. Vanilla-UP: Pipe bandwidth: 1622.28 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1610.59 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1608.30 MB/sec Pipe latency: 7.3275 microseconds Pipe latency: 7.2995 microseconds Pipe latency: 7.3097 microseconds Vanilla-SMP: Pipe bandwidth: 1382.19 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1317.27 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1355.61 MB/sec Pipe latency: 9.6402 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.6696 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.6153 microseconds Patched-SMP: Pipe bandwidth: 1578.70 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1579.95 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1578.63 MB/sec Pipe latency: 9.1654 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.2266 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.1527 microseconds Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

The ->map() function is really expensive on highmem machines right now, since it has to use the slower kmap() instead of kmap_atomic(). Splice rarely needs to access the virtual address of a page, so it's a waste of time doing it. Introduce ->pin() to take over the responsibility of making sure the page data is valid. ->map() is then reduced to just kmap(). That way we can also share a most of the pipe buffer ops between pipe.c and splice.c Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Found by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>, fixed by me. - Only allow full pages to go to the page cache. - Check page != buf->page instead of using PIPE_BUF_FLAG_STOLEN. - Remember to clear 'stolen' if add_to_page_cache() fails. And as a cleanup on that: - Make the bottom fall-through logic a little less convoluted. Also make the steal path hold an extra reference to the page, so we don't have to differentiate between stolen and non-stolen at the end. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference. Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and file output, this syscall merely duplicates the data inside a pipe to another pipe. No data is copied, the output just grabs a reference to the input pipe data. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

It's more efficient for sendfile() emulation. Basically we cache an internal private pipe and just use that as the intermediate area for pages. Direct splicing is not available from sys_splice(), it is only meant to be used for sendfile() emulation.

separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the internal splice APIs and the pipe code: - pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric and more streamlined with existing kernel practices. - splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice methods Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Update XFS for the ->splice_read/->splice_write changes.

Originally from Nick Piggin, just adapted to the newer branch. You can't check PageLRU without holding zone->lru_lock. The page release code can get away with it only because the page refcount is 0 at that point. Also, you can't reliably remove pages from the LRU unless the refcount is 0. Ever.

By cleaning up the writeback logic (killing write_one_page() and the manual set_page_dirty()), we can get rid of ->stolen inside the pipe_buffer and just keep it local in pipe_to_file(). This also adds dirty page balancing logic and O_SYNC handling. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
