Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO: (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds of error returns. So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

Tetsuo Handa wrote: "Commit 62a8067a ("bio_vec-backed iov_iter") introduced an unnamed union inside a struct which gcc-4.4.7 cannot handle. Name the unnamed union as u in order to fix build failure" Let's do this instead: there is only one place in the entire tree that steps into this breakage. Anon structs and unions work in older gcc versions; as the matter of fact, we have those in the tree - see e.g. struct ieee80211_tx_info in include/net/mac80211.h What doesn't work is handling their initializers: struct { int a; union { int b; char c; }; } x[2] = {{.a = 1, .c = 'a'}, {.a = 0, .b = 1}}; is the obvious syntax for initializer, perfectly fine for C11 and handled correctly by gcc-4.7 or later. Earlier versions, though, break on it - declaration is fine and so's access to fields (i.e. x[0].c = 'a'; would produce the right code), but members of the anon structs and unions are not inserted into the right namespace. Tellingly, those older versions will not barf on struct {int a; struct {int a;};}; - looks like they just have it hacked up somewhere around the handling of . and -> instead of doing the right thing. The easiest way to deal with that crap is to turn initialization of those fields (in the only place where we have such initializer of iov_iter) into plain assignment.

I've recently noticed based on the requests to add a small piece of code that dumps the page to various VM_BUG_ON sites that the page dump is quite useful to people debugging issues in mm. This patch adds a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(cond, page) which beyond doing what VM_BUG_ON() does, also dumps the page before executing the actual BUG_ON.

Swap subsystem does lazy swap slot free with expecting the page would be swapped out again so we can avoid unnecessary write. But the problem in in-memory swap(ex, zram) is that it consumes memory space until vm_swap_full(ie, used half of all of swap device) condition meet. It could be bad if we use multiple swap device, small in-memory swap and big storage swap or in-memory swap alone. This patch makes swap subsystem free swap slot as soon as swap-read is completed and make the swapcache page dirty so the page should be written out the swap device to reclaim it. It means we never lose it.

As pointed out by Andrew Morton, the swap-over-NFS writeback is not setting PageWriteback before it is queued for direct IO. While swap pages do not participate in BDI or process dirty accounting and the IO is synchronous, the writeback bit is still required and not setting it in this case was an oversight. swapoff depends on the page writeback to synchronoise all pending writes on a swap page before it is reused. Swapcache freeing and reuse depend on checking the PageWriteback under lock to ensure the page is safe to reuse. Direct IO handlers and the direct IO handler for NFS do not deal with PageWriteback as they are synchronous writes. In the case of NFS, it schedules pages (or a page in the case of swap) for IO and then waits synchronously for IO to complete in nfs_direct_write(). It is recognised that this is a slowdown from normal swap handling which is asynchronous and uses a completion handler. Shoving PageWriteback handling down into direct IO handlers looks like a bad fit to handle the swap case although it may have to be dealt with some day if swap is converted to use direct IO in general and bmap is finally done away with. At that point it will be necessary to refit asynchronous direct IO with completion handlers onto the swap subsystem. As swapcache currently depends on PageWriteback to protect against races, this patch sets PageWriteback under the page lock before queueing it for direct IO. It is cleared when the direct IO handler returns. IO errors are treated similarly to the direct-to-bio case except PageError is not set as in the case of swap-over-NFS, it is likely to be a transient error. It was asked what prevents such a page being reclaimed in parallel. With this patch applied, such a page will now be skipped (most of the time) or blocked until the writeback completes. Reclaim checks PageWriteback under the page lock before calling try_to_free_swap and the page lock should prevent the page being requeued for IO before it is freed. This and Jerome's related patch should considered for -stable as far back as 3.6 when swap-over-NFS was introduced.

Since commit 62c230bc ("mm: add support for a filesystem to activate swap files and use direct_IO for writing swap pages"), swap_writepage() calls direct_IO on swap files. However, in that case the page isn't redirtied if I/O fails, and is therefore handled afterwards as if it has been successfully written to the swap file, leading to memory corruption when the page is eventually swapped back in. This patch sets the page dirty when direct_IO() fails. It fixes a memory corruption that happened while using swap-over-NFS.

To prevent flooding the swap device with writebacks, frontswap backends need to count and limit the number of outstanding writebacks. The incrementing of the counter can be done before the call to __swap_writepage(). However, the caller must receive a notification when the writeback completes in order to decrement the counter. To achieve this functionality, this patch modifies __swap_writepage() to take the bio completion callback function as an argument. end_swap_bio_write(), the normal bio completion function, is also made non-static so that code doing the accounting can call it after the accounting is done. There should be no behavioural change to existing code.

swap_writepage() is currently where frontswap hooks into the swap write path to capture pages with the frontswap_store() function. However, if a frontswap backend wants to "resume" the writeback of a page to the swap device, it can't call swap_writepage() as the page will simply reenter the backend. This patch separates swap_writepage() into a top and bottom half, the bottom half named __swap_writepage() to allow a frontswap backend, like zswap, to resume writeback beyond the frontswap_store() hook. __add_to_swap_cache() is also made non-static so that the page for which writeback is to be resumed can be added to the swap cache.

Currently swapfiles are managed entirely by the core VM by using ->bmap to allocate space and write to the blocks directly. This effectively ensures that the underlying blocks are allocated and avoids the need for the swap subsystem to locate what physical blocks store offsets within a file. If the swap subsystem is to use the filesystem information to locate the blocks, it is critical that information such as block groups, block bitmaps and the block descriptor table that map the swap file were resident in memory. This patch adds address_space_operations that the VM can call when activating or deactivating swap backed by a file. int swap_activate(struct file *); int swap_deactivate(struct file *); The ->swap_activate() method is used to communicate to the file that the VM relies on it, and the address_space should take adequate measures such as reserving space in the underlying device, reserving memory for mempools and pinning information such as the block descriptor table in memory. The ->swap_deactivate() method is called on sys_swapoff() if ->swap_activate() returned success. After a successful swapfile ->swap_activate, the swapfile is marked SWP_FILE and swapper_space.a_ops will proxy to sis->swap_file->f_mappings->a_ops using ->direct_io to write swapcache pages and ->readpage to read. It is perfectly possible that direct_IO be used to read the swap pages but it is an unnecessary complication. Similarly, it is possible that ->writepage be used instead of direct_io to write the pages but filesystem developers have stated that calling writepage from the VM is undesirable for a variety of reasons and using direct_IO opens up the possibility of writing back batches of swap pages in the future.

This patch, 2of4, contains the changes to the core swap subsystem. This includes: (1) makes available core swap data structures (swap_lock, swap_list and swap_info) that are needed by frontswap.c but we don't need to expose them to the dozens of files that include swap.h so we create a new swapfile.h just to extern-ify these and modify their declarations to non-static (2) adds frontswap-related elements to swap_info_struct. Frontswap_map points to vzalloc'ed one-bit-per-swap-page metadata that indicates whether the swap page is in frontswap or in the device and frontswap_pages counts how many pages are in frontswap. (3) adds hooks in the swap subsystem and extends try_to_unuse so that frontswap_shrink can do a "partial swapoff". Note that a failed frontswap_map allocation is safe... failure is noted by lack of "FS" in the subsequent printk. --- [v14: rebase to 3.4-rc2] [v10: no change] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: mark some statics __read_mostly] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: add clarifying comments] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: no need to loop repeating try_to_unuse] [v9: error27@gmail.com: remove superfluous check for NULL] [v8: rebase to 3.0-rc4] [v8: kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com: change counter to atomic_t to avoid races] [v8: kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com: comment to clarify informational counters] [v7: rebase to 3.0-rc3] [v7: JBeulich@novell.com: add new swap struct elements only if config'd] [v6: rebase to 3.0-rc1] [v6: lliubbo@gmail.com: fix null pointer deref if vzalloc fails] [v6: konrad.wilk@oracl.com: various checks and code clarifications/comments] [v5: no change from v4] [v4: rebase to 2.6.39] Signed-off-by: NDan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: NKamezawa Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: NJan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com> Acked-by: NSeth Jennings <sjenning@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Cc: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Cc: Rik Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> [v11: Rebased, fixed mm/swapfile.c context change] Signed-off-by: NKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

With the plugging now being explicitly controlled by the submitter, callers need not pass down unplugging hints to the block layer. If they want to unplug, it's because they manually plugged on their own - in which case, they should just unplug at will. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too. This allows to more easily trace the type of I/O from the filesystem down to the block driver. There were two flags in the bio that were missing in the requests: BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD. Also I've renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them. Note that the flags are in bio.h despite having the REQ_ name - as blkdev.h includes bio.h that is the only way to go for now.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Seems that page_io.c doesn't really need to know that page_private(page) is the swp_entry 'val'. Rework map_swap_page() to do what its name says and map a page to a page offset in the swap space. The only other caller of map_swap_page() is internal to mm/swapfile.c and it does want to map a swap entry to the 'sector'. So rename map_swap_page() to map_swap_entry(), make it 'static' and and implement map_swap_page() as a wrapper around that.

The swap_info_struct is mostly private to mm/swapfile.c, with only one other in-tree user: get_swap_bio(). Adjust its interface to map_swap_page(), so that we can then remove get_swap_info_struct(). But there is a popular user out-of-tree, TuxOnIce: so leave the declaration of swap_info_struct in linux/swap.h.

remove_exclusive_swap_page(): its problem is in living up to its name. It doesn't matter if someone else has a reference to the page (raised page_count); it doesn't matter if the page is mapped into userspace (raised page_mapcount - though that hints it may be worth keeping the swap): all that matters is that there be no more references to the swap (and no writeback in progress). swapoff (try_to_unuse) has been removing pages from swapcache for years, with no concern for page count or page mapcount, and we used to have a comment in lookup_swap_cache() recognizing that: if you go for a page of swapcache, you'll get the right page, but it could have been removed from swapcache by the time you get page lock. So, give up asking for exclusivity: get rid of remove_exclusive_swap_page(), and remove_exclusive_swap_page_ref() and remove_exclusive_swap_page_count() which were spawned for the recent LRU work: replace them by the simpler try_to_free_swap() which just checks page_swapcount(). Similarly, remove the page_count limitation from free_swap_and_count(), but assume that it's worth holding on to the swap if page is mapped and swap nowhere near full. Add a vm_swap_full() test in free_swap_cache()? It would be consistent, but I think we probably have enough for now.

The swap code is over-provisioned with BUG_ONs on assorted page flags, mostly dating back to 2.3. They're good documentation, and guard against developer error, but a waste of space on most systems: change them to VM_BUG_ONs, conditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. Just delete the PagePrivate ones: they're later, from 2.5.69, but even less interesting now.

After running SetPageUptodate, preceeding stores to the page contents to actually bring it uptodate may not be ordered with the store to set the page uptodate. Therefore, another CPU which checks PageUptodate is true, then reads the page contents can get stale data. Fix this by having an smp_wmb before SetPageUptodate, and smp_rmb after PageUptodate. Many places that test PageUptodate, do so with the page locked, and this would be enough to ensure memory ordering in those places if SetPageUptodate were only called while the page is locked. Unfortunately that is not always the case for some filesystems, but it could be an idea for the future. Also bring the handling of anonymous page uptodateness in line with that of file backed page management, by marking anon pages as uptodate when they _are_ uptodate, rather than when our implementation requires that they be marked as such. Doing allows us to get rid of the smp_wmb's in the page copying functions, which were especially added for anonymous pages for an analogous memory ordering problem. Both file and anonymous pages are handled with the same barriers. FAQ: Q. Why not do this in flush_dcache_page? A. Firstly, flush_dcache_page handles only one side (the smb side) of the ordering protocol; we'd still need smp_rmb somewhere. Secondly, hiding away memory barriers in a completely unrelated function is nasty; at least in the PageUptodate macros, they are located together with (half) the operations involved in the ordering. Thirdly, the smp_wmb is only required when first bringing the page uptodate, wheras flush_dcache_page should be called each time it is written to through the kernel mapping. It is logically the wrong place to put it. Q. Why does this increase my text size / reduce my performance / etc. A. Because it is adding the necessary instructions to eliminate the data-race. Q. Can it be improved? A. Yes, eg. if you were to create a rule that all SetPageUptodate operations run under the page lock, we could avoid the smp_rmb places where PageUptodate is queried under the page lock. Requires audit of all filesystems and at least some would need reworking. That's great you're interested, I'm eagerly awaiting your patches.
