The dirty balance reserve that dirty throttling has to consider is
merely memory not available to userspace allocations.  There is nothing
writeback-specific about it.  Generalize the name so that it's reusable

When building kernel with gcc 5.2, the below warning is raised:

  mm/page-writeback.c: In function 'balance_dirty_pages.isra.10':
  mm/page-writeback.c:1545:17: warning: 'm_dirty' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
     unsigned long m_dirty, m_thresh, m_bg_thresh;

The m_dirty{thresh, bg_thresh} are initialized in the block of "if
(mdtc)", so if mdts is null, they won't be initialized before being used.
Initialize m_dirty to zero, also initialize m_thresh and m_bg_thresh to
keep consistency.

They are used later by if condition: !mdtc || m_dirty <=
dirty_freerun_ceiling(m_thresh, m_bg_thresh)

If mdtc is null, dirty_freerun_ceiling will not be called at all, so the
initialization will not change any behavior other than just ceasing the
compile warning.

For memcg domains, the amount of available memory was calculated as

 min(the amount currently in use + headroom according to memcg,
     total clean memory)

This isn't quite correct as what should be capped by the amount of
clean memory is the headroom, not the sum of memory in use and
headroom.  For example, if a memcg domain has a significant amount of
dirty memory, the above can lead to a value which is lower than the
current amount in use which doesn't make much sense.  In most
circumstances, the above leads to a number which is somewhat but not
drastically lower.

As the amount of memory which can be readily allocated to the memcg
domain is capped by the amount of system-wide clean memory which is
not already assigned to the memcg itself, the number we want is

 the amount currently in use +
 min(headroom according to memcg, clean memory elsewhere in the system)

This patch updates mem_cgroup_wb_stats() to return the number of
filepages and headroom instead of the calculated available pages.
mdtc_cap_avail() is renamed to mdtc_calc_avail() and performs the
above calculation from file, headroom, dirty and globally clean pages.

bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue
writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi.
The iteration is performed by walking bdi->cgwb_tree; however, the
tree only indexes wb's which are currently active.

For example, when a memcg gets associated with a different blkcg, the
old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed.
The old wb starts dying from then on but will linger till all its
inodes are drained.  As these dying wb's may still host dirty inodes,
writeback operations which affect all wb's must include them.
bdi_for_each_wb() skipping dying wb's led to sync(2) missing and
failing to sync the inodes belonging to those wb's.

This patch adds a RCU protected @bdi->wb_list which lists all wb's
beloinging to that bdi.  wb's are added on creation and removed on
release rather than on the start of destruction.  bdi_for_each_wb()
usages are replaced with list_for_each[_continue]_rcu() iterations
over @bdi->wb_list and bdi_for_each_wb() and its helpers are removed.

The mechanism for detecting whether an inode should switch its wb
(bdi_writeback) association is now in place.  This patch build the
framework for the actual switching.

This patch adds a new inode flag I_WB_SWITCHING, which has two
functions.  First, the easy one, it ensures that there's only one
switching in progress for a give inode.  Second, it's used as a
mechanism to synchronize wb stat updates.

The two stats, WB_RECLAIMABLE and WB_WRITEBACK, aren't event counters
but track the current number of dirty pages and pages under writeback
respectively.  As such, when an inode is moved from one wb to another,
the inode's portion of those stats have to be transferred together;
unfortunately, this is a bit tricky as those stat updates are percpu
operations which are performed without holding any lock in some
places.

This patch solves the problem in a similar way as memcg.  Each such
lockless stat updates are wrapped in transaction surrounded by
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin/end().  During normal operation, they map
to rcu_read_lock/unlock(); however, if I_WB_SWITCHING is asserted,
mapping->tree_lock is grabbed across the transaction.

In turn, the switching path sets I_WB_SWITCHING and waits for a RCU
grace period to pass before actually starting to switch, which
guarantees that all stat update paths are synchronizing against
mapping->tree_lock.

This patch still doesn't implement the actual switching.

v3: Updated on top of the recent cancel_dirty_page() updates.
    unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin() now nests inside
    mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() to match the locking order.

v2: The i_wb access transaction will be used for !stat accesses too.
    Function names and comments updated accordingly.

While cgroup writeback support now connects memcg and blkcg so that
writeback IOs are properly attributed and controlled, the IO back
pressure propagation mechanism implemented in balance_dirty_pages()
and its subroutines wasn't aware of cgroup writeback.

Processes belonging to a memcg may have access to only subset of total
memory available in the system and not factoring this into dirty
throttling rendered it completely ineffective for processes under
memcg limits and memcg ended up building a separate ad-hoc degenerate
mechanism directly into vmscan code to limit page dirtying.

The previous patches updated balance_dirty_pages() and its subroutines
so that they can deal with multiple wb_domain's (writeback domains)
and defined per-memcg wb_domain.  Processes belonging to a non-root
memcg are bound to two wb_domains, global wb_domain and memcg
wb_domain, and should be throttled according to IO pressures from both
domains.  This patch updates dirty throttling code so that it repeats
similar calculations for the two domains - the differences between the
two are few and minor - and applies the lower of the two sets of
resulting constraints.

wb_over_bg_thresh(), which controls when background writeback
terminates, is also updated to consider both global and memcg
wb_domains.  It returns true if dirty is over bg_thresh for either
domain.

This makes the dirty throttling mechanism operational for memcg
domains including writeback-bandwidth-proportional dirty page
distribution inside them but the ad-hoc memcg throttling mechanism in
vmscan is still in place.  The next patch will rip it out.

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.

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

determine pause duration.

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.

Currently, what constitutes the global writeback domain are scattered

The two callsites are distinguished by whether @thresh parameter is

their own different versions of wb_update_bandwidth() on top of

Let's rename the function to wb_calc_thresh() and wb_dirty to
wb_thresh.

For cgroup writeback support, all bdi-wide operations should be
distributed to all its wb's (bdi_writeback's).

This patch updates laptop_mode_timer_fn() so that it invokes
wb_start_writeback() on all wb's rather than just the root one.  As
the intent is writing out all dirty data, there's no reason to split
the number of pages to write.

bdi_start_writeback() is a thin wrapper on top of
__wb_start_writeback() which is used only by laptop_mode_timer_fn().
This patches removes bdi_start_writeback(), renames
__wb_start_writeback() to wb_start_writeback() and makes
laptop_mode_timer_fn() use it instead.

This doesn't cause any functional difference and will ease making
laptop_mode_timer_fn() cgroup writeback aware.

bdi->min/max_ratio are user-configurable per-bdi knobs which regulate
dirty limit of each bdi.  For cgroup writeback, they need to be
further distributed across wb's (bdi_writeback's) belonging to the
configured bdi.

This patch introduces wb_min_max_ratio() which distributes
bdi->min/max_ratio according to a wb's proportion in the total active
bandwidth of its bdi.

v2: Update wb_min_max_ratio() to fix a bug where both min and max were
    assigned the min value and avoid calculations when possible.

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, balance_dirty_pages() always work on bdi->wb.  This patch
updates it to work on the wb (bdi_writeback) matching memcg and blkcg

balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() now pins the current wb and passes
it to balance_dirty_pages().

For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi
(backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb
(bdi_writeback).  This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host
multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks).

On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg.  This allows
using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every
memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a
dedicated wb to each memcg.  This means that there may be multiple
wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg.  As congested state is per
blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested
state.  This is achieved by tracking congested state via
bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg.

bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup.
cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or
looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page
being dirtied or current task.  Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree
by its memcg id.  Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be
retrieved using inode_to_wb().

Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all
pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb.

v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside
    mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL.
    Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed.  Both
    detected by the kbuild bot.

v2: Updated so that wb association is per inode and wb is per memcg
    rather than blkcg.

Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear.  For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi.  To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.

This patch moves bandwidth related fields from backing_dev_info into
bdi_writeback.

* The moved fields are: bw_time_stamp, dirtied_stamp, written_stamp,
  write_bandwidth, avg_write_bandwidth, dirty_ratelimit,
  balanced_dirty_ratelimit, completions and dirty_exceeded.

* writeback_chunk_size() and over_bground_thresh() now take @wb
  instead of @bdi.

* bdi_writeout_fraction(bdi, ...)	-> wb_writeout_fraction(wb, ...)
  bdi_dirty_limit(bdi, ...)		-> wb_dirty_limit(wb, ...)
  bdi_position_ration(bdi, ...)		-> wb_position_ratio(wb, ...)
  bdi_update_writebandwidth(bdi, ...)	-> wb_update_write_bandwidth(wb, ...)
  [__]bdi_update_bandwidth(bdi, ...)	-> [__]wb_update_bandwidth(wb, ...)
  bdi_{max|min}_pause(bdi, ...)		-> wb_{max|min}_pause(wb, ...)
  bdi_dirty_limits(bdi, ...)		-> wb_dirty_limits(wb, ...)

* Init/exits of the relocated fields are moved to bdi_wb_init/exit()
  respectively.  Note that explicit zeroing is dropped in the process
  as wb's are cleared in entirety anyway.

* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
  uses of bdi->stat[] are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.stat[]
  introducing no behavior changes.

When modifying PG_Dirty on cached file pages, update the new
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_DIRTY counter.  This is done in the same places where
global NR_FILE_DIRTY is managed.  The new memcg stat is visible in the
per memcg memory.stat cgroupfs file.  The most recent past attempt at
this was http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cgroups/8632

The new accounting supports future efforts to add per cgroup dirty
page throttling and writeback.  It also helps an administrator break
down a container's memory usage and provides evidence to understand
memcg oom kills (the new dirty count is included in memcg oom kill
messages).

The ability to move page accounting between memcg
(memory.move_charge_at_immigrate) makes this accounting more
complicated than the global counter.  The existing
mem_cgroup_{begin,end}_page_stat() lock is used to serialize move
accounting with stat updates.
Typical update operation:
	memcg = mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(page)
	if (TestSetPageDirty()) {
		[...]
		mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(memcg)
	}
	mem_cgroup_end_page_stat(memcg)

Summary of mem_cgroup_end_page_stat() overhead:
- Without CONFIG_MEMCG it's a no-op
- With CONFIG_MEMCG and no inter memcg task movement, it's just
  rcu_read_lock()
- With CONFIG_MEMCG and inter memcg  task movement, it's
  rcu_read_lock() + spin_lock_irqsave()

A memcg parameter is added to several routines because their callers
now grab mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() which returns the memcg later
needed by for mem_cgroup_update_page_stat().

Because mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() may disable interrupts, some
adjustments are needed:
- move __mark_inode_dirty() from __set_page_dirty() to its caller.
  __mark_inode_dirty() locking does not want interrupts disabled.
- use spin_lock_irqsave(tree_lock) rather than spin_lock_irq() in
  __delete_from_page_cache(), replace_page_cache_page(),
  invalidate_complete_page2(), and __remove_mapping().
