      mm: filemap: fix mapping->nrpages double accounting in fuse · 3ddf40e8
      由 Johannes Weiner 提交于 
      Commit 22f2ac51 ("mm: workingset: fix crash in shadow node shrinker
caused by replace_page_cache_page()") switched replace_page_cache() from
raw radix tree operations to page_cache_tree_insert() but didn't take
into account that the latter function, unlike the raw radix tree op,
handles mapping->nrpages.  As a result, that counter is bumped for each
page replacement rather than balanced out even.

The mapping->nrpages counter is used to skip needless radix tree walks
when invalidating, truncating, syncing inodes without pages, as well as
statistics for userspace.  Since the error is positive, we'll do more
page cache tree walks than necessary; we won't miss a necessary one.
And we'll report more buffer pages to userspace than there are.  The
error is limited to fuse inodes.

This is a long-standing bug in the way shadow entries are accounted in
the radix tree nodes. The shrinker needs to know when radix tree nodes
contain only shadow entries, no pages, so node->count is split in half
to count shadows in the upper bits and pages in the lower bits.

Unfortunately, the radix tree implementation doesn't know of this and
assumes all entries are in node->count. When there is a shadow entry
directly in root->rnode and the tree is later extended, the radix tree
implementation will copy that entry into the new node and and bump its
node->count, i.e. increases the page count bits. Once the shadow gets
removed and we subtract from the upper counter, node->count underflows
and triggers the warning. Afterwards, without node->count reaching 0
again, the radix tree node is leaked.

Limit shadow entries to when we have actual radix tree nodes and can
count them properly. That means we lose the ability to detect refaults
from files that had only the first page faulted in at eviction time.

which corresponds to the following sanity check in the shadow node
tracking:

  BUG_ON(node->count & RADIX_TREE_COUNT_MASK);

The workingset code tracks radix tree nodes that exclusively contain
shadow entries of evicted pages in them, and this (somewhat obscure)
line checks whether there are real pages left that would interfere with
reclaim of the radix tree node under memory pressure.

While discussing ways how fuse might sneak pages into the radix tree
past the workingset code, Miklos pointed to replace_page_cache_page(),
and indeed there is a problem there: it properly accounts for the old
page being removed - __delete_from_page_cache() does that - but then
does a raw raw radix_tree_insert(), not accounting for the replacement
page.  Eventually the page count bits in node->count underflow while
leaving the node incorrectly linked to the shadow node LRU.

To address this, make sure replace_page_cache_page() uses the tracked
page insertion code, page_cache_tree_insert().  This fixes the page
accounting and makes sure page-containing nodes are properly unlinked
from the shadow node LRU again.

Also, make the sanity checks a bit less obscure by using the helpers for
checking the number of pages and shadows in a radix tree node.

      mm: make faultaround produce old ptes · 5c0a85fa
      由 Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于 
      Currently, faultaround code produces young pte.  This can screw up
vmscan behaviour[1], as it makes vmscan think that these pages are hot
and not push them out on first round.

During sparse file access faultaround gets more pages mapped and all of
them are young.  Under memory pressure, this makes vmscan swap out anon
pages instead, or to drop other page cache pages which otherwise stay
resident.

Modify faultaround to produce old ptes, so they can easily be reclaimed
under memory pressure.

This can to some extend defeat the purpose of faultaround on machines
without hardware accessed bit as it will not help us with reducing the
number of minor page faults.

We may want to disable faultaround on such machines altogether, but
that's subject for separate patchset.

Minchan:
 "I tested 512M mmap sequential word read test on non-HW access bit
  system (i.e., ARM) and confirmed it doesn't increase minor fault any
  more.

  old: 4096 fault_around
  minor fault: 131291
  elapsed time: 6747645 usec

  new: 65536 fault_around
  minor fault: 131291

      mm: filemap: only do access activations on reads · bbddabe2
      由 Johannes Weiner 提交于 
      Andres observed that his database workload is struggling with the
transaction journal creating pressure on frequently read pages.

Access patterns like transaction journals frequently write the same
pages over and over, but in the majority of cases those pages are never
read back.  There are no caching benefits to be had for those pages, so
activating them and having them put pressure on pages that do benefit
from caching is a bad choice.

Leave page activations to read accesses and don't promote pages based on
writes alone.

It could be said that partially written pages do contain cache-worthy
data, because even if *userspace* does not access the unwritten part,
the kernel still has to read it from the filesystem for correctness.
However, a counter argument is that these pages enjoy at least *some*
protection over other inactive file pages through the writeback cache,
in the sense that dirty pages are written back with a delay and cache
reclaim leaves them alone until they have been written back to disk.
Should that turn out to be insufficient and we see increased read IO
from partial writes under memory pressure, we can always go back and
update grab_cache_page_write_begin() to take (pos, len) so that it can
tell partial writes from pages that don't need partial reads.  But for
now, keep it simple.

      mm: workingset: only do workingset activations on reads · f0281a00
      由 Rik van Riel 提交于 
      This is a follow-up to

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg101739.html

where Andres reported his database workingset being pushed out by the
minimum size enforcement of the inactive file list - currently 50% of
cache - as well as repeatedly written file pages that are never actually
read.

Two changes fell out of the discussions.  The first change observes that
pages that are only ever written don't benefit from caching beyond what
the writeback cache does for partial page writes, and so we shouldn't
promote them to the active file list where they compete with pages whose
cached data is actually accessed repeatedly.  This change comes in two
patches - one for in-cache write accesses and one for refaults triggered
by writes, neither of which should promote a cache page.

Second, with the refault detection we don't need to set 50% of the cache
aside for used-once cache anymore since we can detect frequently used
pages even when they are evicted between accesses.  We can allow the
active list to be bigger and thus protect a bigger workingset that isn't
challenged by streamers.  Depending on the access patterns, this can
increase major faults during workingset transitions for better
performance during stable phases.

This patch (of 3):

When rewriting a page, the data in that page is replaced with new data.
This means that evicting something else from the active file list, in
order to cache data that will be replaced by something else, is likely
to be a waste of memory.

It is better to save the active list for frequently read pages, because
reads actually use the data that is in the page.

This patch ignores partial writes, because it is unclear whether the
complexity of identifying those is worth any potential performance gain
obtained from better caching pages that see repeated partial writes at
large enough intervals to not get caught by the use-twice promotion code
used for the inactive file list.

      mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros · 09cbfeaf
      由 Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于 
      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.

      mm/filemap: generic_file_read_iter(): check for zero reads unconditionally · e7080a43
      由 Nicolai Stange 提交于 
      If
 - generic_file_read_iter() gets called with a zero read length,
 - the read offset is at a page boundary,
 - IOCB_DIRECT is not set
-  and the page in question hasn't made it into the page cache yet,
then do_generic_file_read() will trigger a readahead with a req_size hint
of zero.

Since roundup_pow_of_two(0) is undefined, UBSAN reports

  UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in include/linux/log2.h:63:13
  shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type 'long unsigned int'

when get_init_ra_size() gets called from ondemand_readahead().

The net effect is that the initial readahead size is arch dependent for
requested read lengths of zero: for example, since

  1UL << (sizeof(unsigned long) * 8)

evaluates to 1 on x86 while its result is 0 on ARMv7, the initial readahead
size becomes 4 on the former and 0 on the latter.

What's more, whether or not the file access timestamp is updated for zero
length reads is decided differently for the two cases of IOCB_DIRECT
being set or cleared: in the first case, generic_file_read_iter()
explicitly skips updating that timestamp while in the latter case, it is
always updated through the call to do_generic_file_read().

According to POSIX, zero length reads "do not modify the last data access
timestamp" and thus, the IOCB_DIRECT behaviour is POSIXly correct.

Let generic_file_read_iter() unconditionally check the requested read
length at its entry and return immediately with success if it is zero.

      radix_tree: add support for multi-order entries · e6145236
      由 Matthew Wilcox 提交于 
      With huge pages, it is convenient to have the radix tree be able to
return an entry that covers multiple indices.  Previous attempts to deal
with the problem have involved inserting N duplicate entries, which is a
waste of memory and leads to problems trying to handle aliased tags, or
probing the tree multiple times to find alternative entries which might
cover the requested index.

This approach inserts one canonical entry into the tree for a given
range of indices, and may also insert other entries in order to ensure
that lookups find the canonical entry.

This solution only tolerates inserting powers of two that are greater
than the fanout of the tree.  If we wish to expand the radix tree's
abilities to support large-ish pages that is less than the fanout at the
penultimate level of the tree, then we would need to add one more step
in lookup to ensure that any sibling nodes in the final level of the
tree are dereferenced and we return the canonical entry that they
reference.

      mm: __delete_from_page_cache show Bad page if mapped · 06b241f3
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      Commit e1534ae9 ("mm: differentiate page_mapped() from
page_mapcount() for compound pages") changed the famous
BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)) in __delete_from_page_cache() to
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_mapped(page)): which gives us more info when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y, but nothing at all when not.

Although it has not usually been very helpul, being hit long after the
error in question, we do need to know if it actually happens on users'
systems; but reinstating a crash there is likely to be opposed :)

In the non-debug case, pr_alert("BUG: Bad page cache") plus dump_page(),
dump_stack(), add_taint() - I don't really believe LOCKDEP_NOW_UNRELIABLE,
but that seems to be the standard procedure now.  Move that, or the
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(), up before the deletion from tree: so that the
unNULLified page->mapping gives a little more information.

If the inode is being evicted (rather than truncated), it won't have any
vmas left, so it's safe(ish) to assume that the raised mapcount is
erroneous, and we can discount it from page_count to avoid leaking the
page (I'm less worried by leaking the occasional 4kB, than losing a
potential 2MB page with each 4kB page leaked).

      dax: move writeback calls into the filesystems · 7f6d5b52
      由 Ross Zwisler 提交于 
      Previously calls to dax_writeback_mapping_range() for all DAX filesystems
(ext2, ext4 & xfs) were centralized in filemap_write_and_wait_range().

dax_writeback_mapping_range() needs a struct block_device, and it used
to get that from inode->i_sb->s_bdev.  This is correct for normal inodes
mounted on ext2, ext4 and XFS filesystems, but is incorrect for DAX raw
block devices and for XFS real-time files.

Instead, call dax_writeback_mapping_range() directly from the filesystem
->writepages function so that it can supply us with a valid block
device.  This also fixes DAX code to properly flush caches in response
to sync(2).

      dax: add support for fsync/sync · 9973c98e
      由 Ross Zwisler 提交于 
      To properly handle fsync/msync in an efficient way DAX needs to track
dirty pages so it is able to flush them durably to media on demand.

The tracking of dirty pages is done via the radix tree in struct
address_space.  This radix tree is already used by the page writeback
infrastructure for tracking dirty pages associated with an open file,
and it already has support for exceptional (non struct page*) entries.
We build upon these features to add exceptional entries to the radix
tree for DAX dirty PMD or PTE pages at fault time.
