      readahead: enforce full readahead size on async mmap readahead · 2fad6f5d
      Wu Fengguang 提交于
      We need this in one particular case and two more general ones.
      
      Now we do async readahead for sequential mmap reads, and do it with the
      help of PG_readahead.  For normal reads, PG_readahead is the sufficient
      condition to do a sequential readahead.  But unfortunately, for mmap
      reads, there is a tiny nuisance:
      
      [11736.998347] readahead-init0(process: sh/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:4503599627370495, ra=0+4-3) = 4
      [11737.014985] readahead-around(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:0, ra=290+32-0) = 17
      [11737.019488] readahead-around(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:0, ra=118+32-0) = 32
      [11737.024921] readahead-interleaved(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:2, ra=4+6-6) = 6
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      
      An unfavorably small readahead.  The original dumb read-around size could
      be more efficient.
      
      That happened because ld-linux.so does a read(832) in L1 before mmap(),
      which triggers a 4-page readahead, with the second page tagged
      PG_readahead.
      
      L0: open("/lib/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY)        = 3
      L1: read(3, "\177ELF\2\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0>\0\1\0\0\0\340\342"..., 832) = 832
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      L2: fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=1420624, ...}) = 0
      L3: mmap(NULL, 3527256, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_DENYWRITE, 3, 0) = 0x7fac6e51d000
      L4: mprotect(0x7fac6e671000, 2097152, PROT_NONE) = 0
      L5: mmap(0x7fac6e871000, 20480, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_DENYWRITE, 3, 0x154000) = 0x7fac6e871000
      L6: mmap(0x7fac6e876000, 16984, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7fac6e876000
      L7: close(3)                                = 0
      
      In general, the PG_readahead flag will also be hit in cases
      
      - sequential reads
      
      - clustered random reads
      
      A full readahead size is desirable in both cases.

      readahead: sequential mmap readahead · 70ac23cf
      Wu Fengguang 提交于
      Auto-detect sequential mmap reads and do readahead for them.
      
      The sequential mmap readahead will be triggered when
      - sync readahead: it's a major fault and (prev_offset == offset-1);
      - async readahead: minor fault on PG_readahead page with valid readahead state.
      
      The benefits of doing readahead instead of read-around:
      - less I/O wait thanks to async readahead
      - double real I/O size and no more cache hits
      
      The single stream case is improved a little.
      For 100,000 sequential mmap reads:
      
                                          user       system    cpu        total
      (1-1)  plain -mm, 128KB readaround: 3.224      2.554     48.40%     11.838
      (1-2)  plain -mm, 256KB readaround: 3.170      2.392     46.20%     11.976
      (2)  patched -mm, 128KB readahead:  3.117      2.448     47.33%     11.607
      
      The patched (2) has smallest total time, since it has no cache hit overheads
      and less I/O block time(thanks to async readahead). Here the I/O size
      makes no much difference, since there's only one single stream.
      
      Note that (1-1)'s real I/O size is 64KB and (1-2)'s real I/O size is 128KB,
      since the half of the read-around pages will be readahead cache hits.
      
      This is going to make _real_ differences for _concurrent_ IO streams.

      readahead: clean up and simplify the code for filemap page fault readahead · ef00e08e
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This shouldn't really change behavior all that much, but the single rather
      complex function with read-ahead inside a loop etc is broken up into more
      manageable pieces.
      
      The behaviour is also less subtle, with the read-ahead being done up-front
      rather than inside some subtle loop and thus avoiding the now unnecessary
      extra state variables (ie "did_readaround" is gone).
      
      Fengguang: the code split in fact fixed a bug reported by Pavel Levshin:
      the PGMAJFAULT accounting used to be bypassed when MADV_RANDOM is set, in
      which case the original code will directly jump to no_cached_page reading.

      x86, mm: dont use non-temporal stores in pagecache accesses · f1800536
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Impact: standardize IO on cached ops
      
      On modern CPUs it is almost always a bad idea to use non-temporal stores,
      as the regression in this commit has shown it:
      
        30d697fa: x86: fix performance regression in write() syscall
      
      The kernel simply has no good information about whether using non-temporal
      stores is a good idea or not - and trying to add heuristics only increases
      complexity and inserts fragility.
      
      The regression on cached write()s took very long to be found - over two
      years. So dont take any chances and let the hardware decide how it makes
      use of its caches.
      
      The only exception is drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c: there were we are
      absolutely sure that another entity (the GPU) will pick up the dirty
      data immediately and that the CPU will not touch that data before the
      GPU will.
      
      Also, keep the _nocache() primitives to make it easier for people to
      experiment with these details. There may be more clear-cut cases where
      non-cached copies can be used, outside of filemap.c.

      mm: pagecache gfp flags fix · 67d58ac4
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Frustratingly, gfp_t is really divided into two classes of flags.  One are
      the context dependent ones (can we sleep?  can we enter filesystem?  block
      subsystem?  should we use some extra reserves, etc.).  The other ones are
      the type of memory required and depend on how the algorithm is implemented
      rather than the point at which the memory is allocated (highmem?  dma
      memory?  etc).
      
      Some of the functions which allocate a page and add it to page cache take
      a gfp_t, but sometimes those functions or their callers aren't really
      doing the right thing: when allocating pagecache page, the memory type
      should be mapping_gfp_mask(mapping).  When allocating radix tree nodes,
      the memory type should be kernel mapped (not highmem) memory.  The gfp_t
      argument should only really be needed for context dependent options.
      
      This patch doesn't really solve that tangle in a nice way, but it does
      attempt to fix a couple of bugs.
      
      - find_or_create_page changes its radix-tree allocation to only include
        the main context dependent flags in order so the pagecache page may be
        allocated from arbitrary types of memory without affecting the
        radix-tree.  In practice, slab allocations don't come from highmem
        anyway, and radix-tree only uses slab allocations.  So there isn't a
        practical change (unless some fs uses GFP_DMA for pages).
      
      - grab_cache_page_nowait() is changed to allocate radix-tree nodes with
        GFP_NOFS, because it is not supposed to reenter the filesystem.  This
        bug could cause lock recursion if a filesystem is not expecting the
        function to reenter the fs (as-per documentation).
      
      Filesystems should be careful about exactly what semantics they want and
      what they get when fiddling with gfp_t masks to allocate pagecache.  One
      should be as liberal as possible with the type of memory that can be used,
      and same for the the context specific flags.

      mm: direct IO starvation improvement · 48b47c56
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Direct IO can invalidate and sync a lot of pagecache pages in the mapping.
       A 4K direct IO will actually try to sync and/or invalidate the pagecache
      of the entire file, for example (which might be many GB or TB large).
      
      Improve this by doing range syncs.  Also, memory no longer has to be
      unmapped to catch the dirty bits for syncing, as dirty bits would remain
      coherent due to dirty mmap accounting.
      
      This fixes the immediate DM deadlocks when doing direct IO reads to block
      device with a mounted filesystem, if only by papering over the problem
      somewhat rather than addressing the fsync starvation cases.

      mm: write_cache_pages integrity fix · 05fe478d
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      In write_cache_pages, nr_to_write is heeded even for data-integrity syncs,
      so the function will return success after writing out nr_to_write pages,
      even if that was not sufficient to guarantee data integrity.
      
      The callers tend to set it to values that could break data interity
      semantics easily in practice.  For example, nr_to_write can be set to
      mapping->nr_pages * 2, however if a file has a single, dirty page, then
      fsync is called, subsequent pages might be concurrently added and dirtied,
      then write_cache_pages might writeout two of these newly dirty pages,
      while not writing out the old page that should have been written out.
      
      Fix this by ignoring nr_to_write if it is a data integrity sync.
      
      This is a data integrity bug.
      
      The reason this has been done in the past is to avoid stalling sync
      operations behind page dirtiers.
      
       "If a file has one dirty page at offset 1000000000000000 then someone
        does an fsync() and someone else gets in first and starts madly writing
        pages at offset 0, we want to write that page at 1000000000000000.
        Somehow."
      
      What we do today is return success after an arbitrary amount of pages are
      written, whether or not we have provided the data-integrity semantics that
      the caller has asked for.  Even this doesn't actually fix all stall cases
      completely: in the above situation, if the file has a huge number of pages
      in pagecache (but not dirty), then mapping->nrpages is going to be huge,
      even if pages are being dirtied.
      
      This change does indeed make the possibility of long stalls lager, and
      that's not a good thing, but lying about data integrity is even worse.  We
      have to either perform the sync, or return -ELINUXISLAME so at least the
      caller knows what has happened.
      
      There are subsequent competing approaches in the works to solve the stall
      problems properly, without compromising data integrity.

      mm: don't mark_page_accessed in fault path · bf3f3bc5
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Doing a mark_page_accessed at fault-time, then doing SetPageReferenced at
      unmap-time if the pte is young has a number of problems.
      
      mark_page_accessed is supposed to be roughly the equivalent of a young pte
      for unmapped references. Unfortunately it doesn't come with any context:
      after being called, reclaim doesn't know who or why the page was touched.
      
      So calling mark_page_accessed not only adds extra lru or PG_referenced
      manipulations for pages that are already going to have pte_young ptes anyway,
      but it also adds these references which are difficult to work with from the
      context of vma specific references (eg. MADV_SEQUENTIAL pte_young may not
      wish to contribute to the page being referenced).
      
      Then, simply doing SetPageReferenced when zapping a pte and finding it is
      young, is not a really good solution either. SetPageReferenced does not
      correctly promote the page to the active list for example. So after removing
      mark_page_accessed from the fault path, several mmap()+touch+munmap() would
      have a very different result from several read(2) calls for example, which
      is not really desirable.

      fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix · 54566b2c
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
      could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
      allocations happened.  They are done in write_begin, which would always
      assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim.  This bug could
      cause filesystem deadlocks.
      
      The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
      allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
      called.  It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
      take the page lock.  The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
      anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
      
      Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS.  Filesystems can now act on
      this flag in their write_begin function.  Change __grab_cache_page to
      accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
      change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
      and does away with random leading underscores).
      
      This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
      filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
      ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
      GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg.  ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
      random example).

      However, /sbin/init is different, it will dequeue SIGKILL, ignore it, and
      return to the user-space with the bogus -EIO.
      
      Change the code to return the error code from lock_page_killable(), -EINTR.
      This doesn't fix the bug, but perhaps makes sense anyway. Imho, with this
      change the code looks a bit more logical, and the "good" init should handle
      the spurious EINTR or short read.
      
      Afaics we can also change lock_page_killable() to return -ERESTARTNOINTR,
      but this can't prevent the short reads.

      VFS: fix dio write returning EIO when try_to_release_page fails · 6ccfa806

      Dio write returns EIO when try_to_release_page fails because bh is
      still referenced.
      
      The patch
      
          commit 3f31fddf
          Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com>
          Date:   Fri Jul 25 01:46:22 2008 -0700
      
              jbd: fix race between free buffer and commit transaction
      
      was merged into 2.6.27-rc1, but I noticed that this patch is not enough
      to fix the race.
      
      I did fsstress test heavily to 2.6.27-rc1, and found that dio write still
      sometimes got EIO through this test.
      
      The patch above fixed race between freeing buffer(dio) and committing
      transaction(jbd) but I discovered that there is another race, freeing
      buffer(dio) and ext3/4_ordered_writepage.
      
      : background_writeout()
           ->write_cache_pages()
             ->ext3_ordered_writepage()
           	   walk_page_buffers() -> take a bh ref
       	   block_write_full_page() -> unlock_page
      		: <- end_page_writeback
                      : <- race! (dio write->try_to_release_page fails)
            	   walk_page_buffers() ->release a bh ref
      
      ext3_ordered_writepage holds bh ref and does unlock_page remaining
      taking a bh ref, so this causes the race and failure of
      try_to_release_page.
      
      To fix this race, I used the approach of falling back to buffered
      writes if try_to_release_page() fails on a page.

      Fix off-by-one error in iov_iter_advance() · 94ad374a
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The iov_iter_advance() function would look at the iov->iov_len entry
      even though it might have iterated over the whole array, and iov was
      pointing past the end.  This would cause DEBUG_PAGEALLOC to trigger a
      kernel page fault if the allocation was at the end of a page, and the
      next page was unallocated.
      
      The quick fix is to just change the order of the tests: check that there
      is any iovec data left before we check the iov entry itself.
      
      Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan for finding this case, and testing the fix.

      vfs: pagecache usage optimization for pagesize!=blocksize · 8ab22b9a
      Hisashi Hifumi 提交于
      When we read some part of a file through pagecache, if there is a
      pagecache of corresponding index but this page is not uptodate, read IO
      is issued and this page will be uptodate.
      
      I think this is good for pagesize == blocksize environment but there is
      room for improvement on pagesize != blocksize environment.  Because in
      this case a page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not
      uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate.
      
      So I suggest that when all buffers which correspond to a part of a file
      that we want to read are uptodate, use this pagecache and copy data from
      this pagecache to user buffer even if a page is not uptodate.  This can
      reduce read IO and improve system throughput.
      
      I wrote a benchmark program and got result number with this program.
      
      This benchmark do:
      
        1: mount and open a test file.
      
        2: create a 512MB file.
      
        3: close a file and umount.
      
        4: mount and again open a test file.
      
        5: pwrite randomly 300000 times on a test file.  offset is aligned
           by IO size(1024bytes).
      
        6: measure time of preading randomly 100000 times on a test file.
      
      The result was:
      	2.6.26
              330 sec
      
      	2.6.26-patched
              226 sec
      
      Arch:i386
      Filesystem:ext3
      Blocksize:1024 bytes
      Memory: 1GB
      
      On ext3/4, a file is written through buffer/block.  So random read/write
      mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads are optimized
      with this patch under pagesize != blocksize environment.  This test result
      showed this.
      
      The benchmark program is as follows:
      
      #include <stdio.h>
      #include <sys/types.h>

      After this,
      
       * A page is charged only when !page_mapped() && no page_cgroup is assigned.
      	* Anon page is newly mapped.
      	* File page is added to mapping->tree.
      
       * A page is uncharged only when
      	* Anon page is fully unmapped.
      	* File page is removed from LRU.
      
      There is no change in behavior from user's view.

      jbd: fix race between free buffer and commit transaction · 3f31fddf
      Mingming Cao 提交于
      journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction when
      the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the data
      buffer to flush to disk.  If the caller of journal_try_to_free_buffers()
      request tries hard to release the buffers, it will treat the failure as
      error and return back to the caller.  We have seen the directo IO failed
      due to this race.  Some of the caller of releasepage() also expecting the
      buffer to be dropped when passed with GFP_KERNEL mask to the
      releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers().
      
      With this patch, if the caller is passing the __GFP_WAIT and __GFP_FS to
      indicating this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed,
      let's waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the
      current committing transaction, then try to free those buffers again.
