The amount of available memory to a memcg wb_domain can change as memcg configuration changes. A domain's ->dirty_limit exists to smooth out sudden drops in dirty threshold; however, when a domain's size actually drops significantly, it hinders the dirty throttling from adjusting to the new configuration leading to unexpected behaviors including unnecessary OOM kills. This patch resolves the issue by adding wb_domain_size_changed() which resets ->dirty_limit[_tstmp] and making memcg call it on configuration changes.

Dirtyable memory is distributed to a wb (bdi_writeback) according to the relative bandwidth the wb is writing out in the whole system. This distribution is global - each wb is measured against all other wb's and gets the proportinately sized portion of the memory in the whole system. For cgroup writeback, the amount of dirtyable memory is scoped by memcg and thus each wb would need to be measured and controlled in its memcg. IOW, a wb will belong to two writeback domains - the global and memcg domains. The previous patches laid the groundwork to support the two wb_domains and this patch implements memcg wb_domain. memcg->cgwb_domain is initialized on css online and destroyed on css release, wb->memcg_completions is added, and __wb_writeout_inc() is updated to increment completions against both global and memcg wb_domains. The following patches will update balance_dirty_pages() and its subroutines to actually consider memcg wb_domain for throttling.

wb_over_bg_thresh() currently uses global_dirty_limits() and wb_dirty_limit() both of which are wrappers around operations which take dirty_throttle_control. For cgroup writeback support, the function will be updated to also consider memcg wb_domains which requires the context information carried in dirty_throttle_control. This patch updates wb_over_bg_thresh() so that it uses the underlying wb_domain aware operations directly and builds the global dirty_throttle_control in the process.

global_dirty_limits() calculates thresh and bg_thresh (confusingly called *pdirty and *pbackground in the function) assuming global_wb_domain; however, cgroup writeback support requires considering per-memcg wb_domain too. This patch separates out domain_dirty_limits() which takes dirty_throttle_control out of global_dirty_limits(). As thresh and bg_thresh calculation needs the amount of dirtyable memory in the domain, dirty_throttle_control->avail is added. The new function calculates the two thresholds and store them directly in the dirty_throttle_control. Also, as memcg domains can't follow vm_dirty_bytes and dirty_background_bytes settings directly. If those are set and domain_dirty_limits() is invoked for a !global domain, the settings are translated to ratios by scaling them against globally available memory. dirty_throttle_control->gdtc is added to enable this when CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK. global_dirty_limits() is now a thin wrapper around domain_dirty_limits() and balance_dirty_pages() is updated to use the new function too.

wb_position_ratio() is used to calculate pos_ratio, which is used for two purposes. wb_update_dirty_ratelimit() uses it to adjust wb->[balanced_]dirty_ratelimit gradually and balance_dirty_pages() to immediately adjust dirty_ratelimit right before applying it to determine pause duration. While wb_update_dirty_ratelimit() is separately rate limited from balance_dirty_pages(), on the run where the ratelimit is updated, we end up calculating pos_ratio twice with the same parameters. This patch adds dirty_throttle_control->pos_ratio. balance_dirty_pages() calculates it once per run and wb_update_dirty_ratelimit() uses the value stored in dirty_throttle_control. This removes the duplicate calculation and also will help implementing memcg wb_domain.

wb_calc_thresh() calculates wb_thresh by scaling thresh according to the wb's portion in the system-wide write bandwidth. cgroup writeback support would need to calculate wb_thresh against memcg domain too. This patch renames wb_calc_thresh() to __wb_calc_thresh() and makes it take dirty_throttle_control so that the function can later be updated to calculate against different domains according to dirty_throttle_control. wb_calc_thresh() is now a thin wrapper around __wb_calc_thresh(). v2: The original version was incorrectly scaling dtc->dirty instead of dtc->thresh.

wb_bg_thresh is currently treated as a second-class citizen. It's only used when BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT is set and balance_dirty_pages() doesn't calculate it unless the cap is set. When the cap is set, the calculated value is not passed around but instead recalculated whenever it's used. wb_position_ratio() calculates it by scaling wb_thresh proportional to bg_thresh / thresh. wb_update_dirty_ratelimit() uses wb_dirty_limit() on bg_thresh, which should generally lead to a similar result as the proportional scaling but can also be way off in the presence of max/min_ratio settings. Avoiding wb_bg_thresh calculation saves us one u64 multiplication and divsion when BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT is not set. Given that balance_dirty_pages() is already ratelimited, this doesn't justify the incurred extra complexity. This patch adds wb_bg_thresh to dirty_throttle_control and makes wb_dirty_limits() always calculate it and updates the users to use the pre-calculated value.

Dirty throttling implemented in balance_dirty_pages() and its subroutines makes use of a number of parameters which are passed around individually. This renders these functions somewhat unwieldy and makes it difficult to add or change the involved parameters. Also some functions use different or conflicting naming schemes for the same parameters making the code confusing to follow. This patch consolidates the main parameters into struct dirty_throttle_control so that they can be passed around easily and adding new paramters isn't painful. This also unifies how a given parameter is named and accessed. The drawback of using this type of control structure rather than explicit paramters is that it isn't immediately obvious which function accesses and modifies what; however, it's fairly clear that the benefits outweigh in this case. GDTC_INIT() macro is provided to ease initializing dirty_throttle_control for the global_wb_domain and balance_dirty_pages() uses a separate pointer to point to its global dirty_throttle_control. This is to make it uniform with memcg domain handling which will be added later. This patch doesn't introduce any behavioral changes.

__wb_update_bandwidth() is called from two places - fs/fs-writeback.c::balance_dirty_pages() and mm/page-writeback.c::wb_writeback(). The latter updates only the write bandwidth while the former also deals with the dirty ratelimit. The two callsites are distinguished by whether @thresh parameter is zero or not, which is cryptic. In addition, the two files define their own different versions of wb_update_bandwidth() on top of __wb_update_bandwidth(), which is confusing to say the least. This patch cleans up [__]wb_update_bandwidth() in the following ways. * __wb_update_bandwidth() now takes explicit @update_ratelimit parameter to gate dirty ratelimit handling. * mm/page-writeback.c::wb_update_bandwidth() is flattened into its caller - balance_dirty_pages(). * fs/fs-writeback.c::wb_update_bandwidth() is moved to mm/page-writeback.c and __wb_update_bandwidth() is made static. * While at it, add a lockdep assertion to __wb_update_bandwidth(). Except for the lockdep addition, this is pure reorganization and doesn't introduce any behavioral changes.

cpu_possible_mask represents the CPUs which are actually possible during that boot instance. For systems which don't support CPU hotplug, this will match cpu_online_mask exactly in most cases. Even for systems which support CPU hotplug, the number of possible CPU slots is highly unlikely to diverge greatly from the number of online CPUs. The only cases where the difference between possible and online caused problems were when the boot code failed to initialize the possible mask and left it fully set at NR_CPUS - 1. As such, most per-cpu constructs allocate for all possible CPUs and often iterate over the possibles, which also has the benefit of avoiding the blocking CPU hotplug synchronization. memcg open codes per-cpu stat counting for mem_cgroup_read_stat() and mem_cgroup_read_events(), which iterates over online CPUs and handles CPU hotplug operations explicitly. This complexity doesn't actually buy anything. Switch to iterating over the possibles and drop the explicit CPU hotplug handling. Eventually, we want to convert memcg to use percpu_counter instead of its own custom implementation which also benefits from quick access w/o summing for cases where larger error margin is acceptable. This will allow mem_cgroup_read_stat() to be called from non-sleepable contexts which will be used by cgroup writeback.

try_writeback_inodes_sb_nr() wraps writeback_inodes_sb_nr() so that it handles s_umount locking and skips if writeback is already in progress. The in progress test is performed on the root wb (bdi_writeback) which isn't sufficient for cgroup writeback support. The test must be done per-wb. To prepare for the change, this patch factors out __writeback_inodes_sb_nr() from writeback_inodes_sb_nr() and adds @skip_if_busy and moves the in progress test right before queueing the wb_writeback_work. try_writeback_inodes_sb_nr() now just grabs s_umount and invokes __writeback_inodes_sb_nr() with asserted @skip_if_busy. This way, later addition of multiple wb handling can skip only the wb's which already have writeback in progress. This swaps the order between in progress test and s_umount test which can flip the return value when writeback is in progress and s_umount is being held by someone else but this shouldn't cause any meaningful difference. It's a fringe condition and the return value is an unsynchronized hint anyway.

For cgroup writeback, multiple wb_writeback_work items may need to be issuedto accomplish a single task. The previous patch updated the waiting mechanism such that wb_wait_for_completion() can wait for multiple work items. Issuing mulitple work items involves memory allocation which may fail. As most writeback operations can't fail or blocked on memory allocation, in such cases, we'll fall back to sequential issuing of an on-stack work item, which would need to be waited upon sequentially.

The only thing wb_writeback_work does is writing back the dirty inodes for the target wb and queueing a work item for a clean wb is essentially noop. There are some side effects such as bandwidth stats being updated and triggering tracepoints but these don't affect the operation in any meaningful way. This patch makes all writeback_inodes_sb_nr() and sync_inodes_sb() skip wb_queue_work() if the target bdi is clean. Also, it moves dirtiness check from wakeup_flusher_threads() to __wb_start_writeback() so that all its callers benefit from the check. While the overhead incurred by scheduling a noop work isn't currently significant, the overhead may be higher with cgroup writeback support as we may end up issuing noop work items to a lot of clean wb's.

bdi_has_dirty_io() used to only reflect whether the root wb (bdi_writeback) has dirty inodes. For cgroup writeback support, it needs to take all active wb's into account. If any wb on the bdi has dirty inodes, bdi_has_dirty_io() should return true. To achieve that, as inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked() now keep track of the dirty state transition of each wb, the number of dirty wbs can be counted in the bdi; however, bdi is already aggregating wb->avg_write_bandwidth which can easily be guaranteed to be > 0 when there are any dirty inodes by ensuring wb->avg_write_bandwidth can't dip below 1. bdi_has_dirty_io() can simply test whether bdi->tot_write_bandwidth is zero or not. While this bumps the value of wb->avg_write_bandwidth to one when it used to be zero, this shouldn't cause any meaningful behavior difference. bdi_has_dirty_io() is made an inline function which tests whether ->tot_write_bandwidth is non-zero. Also, WARN_ON_ONCE()'s on its value are added to inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked().

cgroup writeback support needs to keep track of the sum of avg_write_bandwidth of all wb's (bdi_writeback's) with dirty inodes to distribute write workload. This patch adds bdi->tot_write_bandwidth and updates inode_wb_list_move_locked(), inode_wb_list_del_locked() and wb_update_write_bandwidth() to adjust it as wb's gain and lose dirty inodes and its avg_write_bandwidth gets updated. As the update events are not synchronized with each other, bdi->tot_write_bandwidth is an atomic_long_t.

Currently, wb_has_dirty_io() determines whether a wb (bdi_writeback) has any dirty inode by testing all three IO lists on each invocation without actively keeping track. For cgroup writeback support, a single bdi will host multiple wb's each of which will host dirty inodes separately and we'll need to make bdi_has_dirty_io(), which currently only represents the root wb, aggregate has_dirty_io from all member wb's, which requires tracking transitions in has_dirty_io state on each wb. This patch introduces inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked() to consolidate IO list operations leaving queue_io() the only other function which directly manipulates IO lists (via move_expired_inodes()). All three functions are updated to call wb_io_lists_[de]populated() which keep track of whether the wb has dirty inodes or not and record it using the new WB_has_dirty_io flag. inode_wb_list_moved_locked()'s return value indicates whether the wb had no dirty inodes before. mark_inode_dirty() is restructured so that the return value of inode_wb_list_move_locked() can be used for deciding whether to wake up the wb. While at it, change {bdi|wb}_has_dirty_io()'s return values to bool. These functions were returning 0 and 1 before. Also, add a comment explaining the synchronization of wb_state flags. v2: Updated to accommodate b_dirty_time.

In several places, bdi_congested() and its wrappers are used to determine whether more IOs should be issued. With cgroup writeback support, this question can't be answered solely based on the bdi (backing_dev_info). It's dependent on whether the filesystem and bdi support cgroup writeback and the blkcg the inode is associated with. This patch implements inode_congested() and its wrappers which take @inode and determines the congestion state considering cgroup writeback. The new functions replace bdi_*congested() calls in places where the query is about specific inode and task. There are several filesystem users which also fit this criteria but they should be updated when each filesystem implements cgroup writeback support. v2: Now that a given inode is associated with only one wb, congestion state can be determined independent from the asking task. Drop @task. Spotted by Vivek. Also, converted to take @inode instead of @mapping and renamed to inode_congested().

Now that bdi layer can handle per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested state, blk_{set|clear}_congested() can propagate non-root blkcg congestion state to them. This can be easily achieved by disabling the root_rl tests in blk_{set|clear}_congested(). Note that we still need those tests when !CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK as otherwise we'll end up flipping root blkcg wb's congestion state for events happening on other blkcgs. v2: Updated for bdi_writeback_congested.
