      mm: fix assertion mapping->nrpages == 0 in end_writeback() · 08142579
      Jan Kara 提交于
      Under heavy memory and filesystem load, users observe the assertion
      mapping->nrpages == 0 in end_writeback() trigger.  This can be caused by
      page reclaim reclaiming the last page from a mapping in the following

      vfs: i_state needs to be 'unsigned long' for now · 79568f5b
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Commit 13e12d14 ("vfs: reorganize 'struct inode' layout a bit")
      moved things around a bit changed i_state to be unsigned int instead of
      unsigned long.  That was to help structure layout for the 64-bit case,
      and shrink 'struct inode' a bit (admittedly that only happened when
      spinlock debugging was on and i_flags didn't pack with i_lock).
      
      However, Meelis Roos reports that this results in unaligned exceptions
      on sprc, and it turns out that the bit-locking primitives that we use
      for the I_NEW bit want to use the bitops.  Which want 'unsigned long',
      not 'unsigned int'.
      
      We really should fix the bit locking code to not have that kind of
      requirement, but that's a much bigger change.  So for now, revert that
      field back to 'unsigned long' (but keep the other re-ordering changes
      from the commit that caused this).
      
      Andi points out that we have played games with this in 'struct page', so
      it's solvable with other hacks too, but since right now the struct inode
      size advantage only happens with some rare config options, it's not
      worth fighting.
      
      It _would_ be worth fixing the bitlocking code, though.  Especially
      since there is no type safety in the bitlocking code (this never caused
      any warnings, and worked fine on x86-64, because the bitlocks take a
      'void *' and x86-64 doesn't care that deeply about alignment).  So it's
      currently a very easy problem to trigger by mistake and never notice.

      vfs: reorganize 'struct inode' layout a bit · 13e12d14
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This tries to make the 'struct inode' accesses denser in the data cache
      by moving a commonly accessed field (i_security) closer to other fields
      that are accessed often.
      
      It also makes 'i_state' just an 'unsigned int' rather than 'unsigned
      long', since we only use a few bits of that field, and moves it next to
      the existing 'i_flags' so that we potentially get better structure
      layout (although depending on config options, i_flags may already have
      packed in the same word as i_lock, so this improves packing only for the
      case of spinlock debugging)
      
      Out 'struct inode' is still way too big, and we should probably move
      some other fields around too (the acl fields in particular) for better
      data cache access density.  Other fields (like the inode hash) are
      likely to be entirely irrelevant under most loads.

      more conservative S_NOSEC handling · 9e1f1de0
      Al Viro 提交于
      Caching "we have already removed suid/caps" was overenthusiastic as merged.
      On network filesystems we might have had suid/caps set on another client,
      silently picked by this client on revalidate, all of that *without* clearing
      the S_NOSEC flag.
      
      AFAICS, the only reasonably sane way to deal with that is
      	* new superblock flag; unless set, S_NOSEC is not going to be set.
      	* local block filesystems set it in their ->mount() (more accurately,
      mount_bdev() does, so does btrfs ->mount(), users of mount_bdev() other than
      local block ones clear it)
      	* if any network filesystem (or a cluster one) wants to use S_NOSEC,
      it'll need to set MS_NOSEC in sb->s_flags *AND* take care to clear S_NOSEC when
      inode attribute changes are picked from other clients.
      
      It's not an earth-shattering hole (anybody that can set suid on another client
      will almost certainly be able to write to the file before doing that anyway),
      but it's a bug that needs fixing.

      Cache xattr security drop check for write v2 · 69b45732
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Some recent benchmarking on btrfs showed that a major scaling bottleneck
      on large systems on btrfs is currently the xattr lookup on every write.
      
      Why xattr lookup on every write I hear you ask?
      
      write wants to drop suid and security related xattrs that could set o
      capabilities for executables.  To do that it currently looks up
      security.capability on EVERY write (even for non executables) to decide
      whether to drop it or not.
      
      In btrfs this causes an additional tree walk, hitting some per file system
      locks and quite bad scalability. In a simple read workload on a 8S
      system I saw over 90% CPU time in spinlocks related to that.
      
      Chris Mason tells me this is also a problem in ext4, where it hits
      the global mbcache lock.
      
      This patch adds a simple per inode to avoid this problem.  We only
      do the lookup once per file and then if there is no xattr cache
      the decision. All xattr changes clear the flag.
      
      I also used the same flag to avoid the suid check, although
      that one is pretty cheap.
      
      A file system can also set this flag when it creates the inode,
      if it has a cheap way to do so.  This is done for some common file systems
      in followon patches.
      
      With this patch a major part of the lock contention disappears
      for btrfs. Some testing on smaller systems didn't show significant
      performance changes, but at least it helps the larger systems
      and is generally more efficient.
      
      v2: Rename is_sgid. add file system helper.

      ulimit: raise default hard ulimit on number of files to 4096 · 0ac1ee0b
      Tim Gardner 提交于
      Apps are increasingly using more than 1024 file descriptors.  See
      discussion in several distro bug trackers, e.g.  BugLink:
      http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/663090
      https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-2054
      
      You don't want to raise the default soft limit, since that might break
      apps that use select(), but it's safe to raise the default hard limit;
      that way, apps that know they need lots of file descriptors can raise
      their soft limit without needing root, and without user intervention.
      
      Ubuntu is doing this with a kernel change because they have a policy of
      not changing kernel defaults in userland.
      
      While 4096 might not be enough for *all* apps, it seems to be plenty for
      the apps I've seen lately that are unhappy with 1024.

        the i_mmap_mutex it expects would soon be dropped? "
      
      Counter points:
       - cpu contention makes the spin stop (need_resched())
       - zap pages should be freeing pages at a higher rate than reclaim
         ever can
      
      I think the simplification of the truncate code is definitely worth it.

      FS_COW_FL and FS_NOCOW_FL were newly introduced to control per file

      The fact is we don't have corresponding BTRFS_INODE_COW flag.
      
      COW is default, and FS_NOCOW_FL can be used to switch off COW for

      If we mount btrfs with nodatacow, a newly created file will be set with

      This reverts commit 93f1c20b.
      
      It turns out that libmount misparses it because it adds a '-' character
      in the uuid string, which libmount then incorrectly confuses with the
      separator string (" - ") at the end of all the optional arguments.
      
      Upstream libmount (in the util-linux tree) has been fixed, but until
      that fix actually percolates up to users, we'd better not expose this
      change in the kernel.
      
      Let's revisit this later (possibly by exposing the UUID without any '-'
      characters in it, avoiding the user-space bug).

      fs: protect inode->i_state with inode->i_lock · 250df6ed
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Protect inode state transitions and validity checks with the
      inode->i_lock. This enables us to make inode state transitions
      independently of the inode_lock and is the first step to peeling
      away the inode_lock from the code.
      
      This requires that __iget() is done atomically with i_state checks
      during list traversals so that we don't race with another thread
      marking the inode I_FREEING between the state check and grabbing the
      reference.
      
      Also remove the unlock_new_inode() memory barrier optimisation
      required to avoid taking the inode_lock when clearing I_NEW.
      Simplify the code by simply taking the inode->i_lock around the
      state change and wakeup. Because the wakeup is no longer tricky,
      remove the wake_up_inode() function and open code the wakeup where
      necessary.

      New kind of open files - "location only". · 1abf0c71

      New flag for open(2) - O_PATH.  Semantics:
      	* pathname is resolved, but the file itself is _NOT_ opened
      as far as filesystem is concerned.
      	* almost all operations on the resulting descriptors shall
      fail with -EBADF.  Exceptions are:
      	1) operations on descriptors themselves (i.e.
      		close(), dup(), dup2(), dup3(), fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD),
      		fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC, ...), fcntl(fd, F_GETFD),
      		fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, ...))
      	2) fcntl(fd, F_GETFL), for a common non-destructive way to
      		check if descriptor is open
      	3) "dfd" arguments of ...at(2) syscalls, i.e. the starting
      		points of pathname resolution
      	* closing such descriptor does *NOT* affect dnotify or
      posix locks.
      	* permissions are checked as usual along the way to file;
      no permission checks are applied to the file itself.  Of course,
      giving such thing to syscall will result in permission checks (at
      the moment it means checking that starting point of ....at() is
      a directory and caller has exec permissions on it).
      
      fget() and fget_light() return NULL on such descriptors; use of
      fget_raw() and fget_raw_light() is needed to get them.  That protects
      existing code from dealing with those things.
      
      There are two things still missing (they come in the next commits):
      one is handling of symlinks (right now we refuse to open them that
      way; see the next commit for semantics related to those) and another
      is descriptor passing via SCM_RIGHTS datagrams.

      clean statfs-like syscalls up · c8b91acc
      Al Viro 提交于
      New helpers: user_statfs() and fd_statfs(), taking userland pathname and
      descriptor resp. and filling struct kstatfs.  Syscalls of statfs family
      (native, compat and foreign - osf and hpux on alpha and parisc resp.)
      switched to those.  Removes some boilerplate code, simplifies cleanup
      on errors...

      open-style analog of vfs_path_lookup() · 73d049a4
      Al Viro 提交于
      new function: file_open_root(dentry, mnt, name, flags) opens the file
      vfs_path_lookup would arrive to.
      
      Note that name can be empty; in that case the usual requirement that
      dentry should be a directory is lifted.
      
      open-coded equivalents switched to it, may_open() got down exactly
      one caller and became static.

      block: kill off REQ_UNPLUG · 721a9602
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      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.

      Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,

      So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops->sync_page().

      Fix over-zealous flush_disk when changing device size. · 93b270f7
      NeilBrown 提交于
      There are two cases when we call flush_disk.
      In one, the device has disappeared (check_disk_change) so any
      data will hold becomes irrelevant.
      In the oter, the device has changed size (check_disk_size_change)
      so data we hold may be irrelevant.
      
      In both cases it makes sense to discard any 'clean' buffers,
      so they will be read back from the device if needed.
      
      In the former case it makes sense to discard 'dirty' buffers
      as there will never be anywhere safe to write the data.  In the
      second case it *does*not* make sense to discard dirty buffers
      as that will lead to file system corruption when you simply enlarge
      the containing devices.
      
      flush_disk calls __invalidate_devices.
      __invalidate_device calls both invalidate_inodes and invalidate_bdev.
      
      invalidate_inodes *does* discard I_DIRTY inodes and this does lead
      to fs corruption.
      
      invalidate_bev *does*not* discard dirty pages, but I don't really care
      about that at present.
      
      So this patch adds a flag to __invalidate_device (calling it
      __invalidate_device2) to indicate whether dirty buffers should be
      killed, and this is passed to invalidate_inodes which can choose to
      skip dirty inodes.
      
      flusk_disk then passes true from check_disk_change and false from
      check_disk_size_change.
      
      dm avoids tripping over this problem by calling i_size_write directly
      rathher than using check_disk_size_change.
      
      md does use check_disk_size_change and so is affected.
      
      This regression was introduced by commit 608aeef1 which causes
      check_disk_size_change to call flush_disk, so it is suitable for any
      kernel since 2.6.27.
