Currently direct writes inside i_size on a DIO_SKIP_HOLES filesystem are
not allowed to allocate blocks(get_more_blocks() sets 'create' to 0
before calling get_block() callback), if it's a sparse file, direct
writes fall back to buffered writes to avoid stale data exposure from
concurrent buffered read.  But there're two cases that can result in
stale data exposure are not correctly detected.

1. The detection for "writing inside i_size" is not sufficient,
   writes can be treated as "extending writes" wrongly.  For example,
   direct write 1FSB (file system block) to a 1FSB sparse file on
   ext2/3/4, starting from offset 0, in this case it's writing inside
   i_size, but 'create' is non-zero, because 'block_in_file' and
   '(i_size_read(inode) >> blkbits' are both zero.

2. Direct writes starting from or beyong i_size (not inside i_size)
   also could trigger block allocation and expose stale data.  For
   example, consider a sparse file with i_size of 2k, and a write to
   offset 2k or 3k into the file, with a filesystem block size of 4k.
   (Thanks to Jeff Moyer for pointing this case out in his review.)

The first problem can be demostrated by running ltp-aiodio test ADSP045
many times.  When testing on extN filesystems, I see test failures
occasionally, buffered read could read non-zero (stale) data.

ADSP045: dio_sparse -a 4k -w 4k -s 2k -n 1

dio_sparse    0  TINFO  :  Dirtying free blocks
dio_sparse    0  TINFO  :  Starting I/O tests
non zero buffer at buf[0] => 0xffffffaa,ffffffaa,ffffffaa,ffffffaa
non-zero read at offset 0
dio_sparse    0  TINFO  :  Killing childrens(s)
dio_sparse    1  TFAIL  :  dio_sparse.c:191: 1 children(s) exited abnormally

The second problem can also be reproduced easily by a hacked dio_sparse
program, which accepts an option to specify the write offset.

What we should really do is to disable block allocation for writes that
could result in filling holes inside i_size.

The kiocb already has the new position, so use that.  The only interesting
case is AIO, where we currently don't bother updating ki_pos.  We're about
to free the kiocb after we're done, so we might as well update it to make
everyone's life simpler.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -> get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -> put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Assume a filesystem with 4KB blocks. When a file has size 1000 bytes and
we issue direct IO read at offset 1024, blockdev_direct_IO() reads the
tail of the last block and the logic for handling short DIO reads in
dio_complete() results in a return value -24 (1000 - 1024) which
obviously confuses userspace.

Fix the problem by bailing out early once we sample i_size and can
reliably check that direct IO read starts beyond i_size.

__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep.  Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep.  The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake.  As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags.  This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

When direct read IO is submitted from kernel, it is often
unnecessary to dirty pages, for example of loop, dirtying pages
have been considered in the upper filesystem(over loop) side
already, and they don't need to be dirtied again.

So this patch doesn't dirtying pages for ITER_BVEC/ITER_KVEC
direct read, and loop should be the 1st case to use ITER_BVEC/ITER_KVEC
for direct read I/O.

The patch is based on previous Dave's patch.

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.

do_blockdev_direct_IO() increments and decrements the inode
->i_dio_count for each IO operation. It does this to protect against
truncate of a file. Block devices don't need this sort of protection.

For a capable multiqueue setup, this atomic int is the only shared
state between applications accessing the device for O_DIRECT, and it
presents a scaling wall for that. In my testing, as much as 30% of
system time is spent incrementing and decrementing this value. A mixed
read/write workload improved from ~2.5M IOPS to ~9.6M IOPS, with
better latencies too. Before:

The more applications accessing the device, the worse it gets.

Add a new direct-io flags, DIO_SKIP_DIO_COUNT, which tells

Most callers in the kernel want to perform synchronous file I/O, but
still have to bloat the stack with a full struct kiocb.  Split out
the parts needed in filesystem code from those in the aio code, and
only allocate those needed to pass down argument on the stack.  The
aio code embedds the generic iocb in the one it allocates and can
easily get back to it by using container_of.

Also add a ->ki_complete method to struct kiocb, this is used to call
into the aio code and thus removes the dependency on aio for filesystems
impementing asynchronous operations.  It will also allow other callers
to substitute their own completion callback.

We also add a new ->ki_flags field to work around the nasty layering
violation recently introduced in commit 5e33f6 ("usb: gadget: ffs: add
eventfd notification about ffs events").

The third argument of fuse_get_user_pages() "nbytesp" refers to the number of
bytes a caller asked to pack into fuse request. This value may be lesser
than capacity of fuse request or iov_iter.  So fuse_get_user_pages() must
ensure that *nbytesp won't grow.

Now, when helper iov_iter_get_pages() performs all hard work of extracting
pages from iov_iter, it can be done by passing properly calculated
"maxsize" to the helper.

The other caller of iov_iter_get_pages() (dio_refill_pages()) doesn't need
this capability, so pass LONG_MAX as the maxsize argument here.

Maybe it's better to move initializing "to" and "from" out of
dio_get_page(). That _might_ make it easier for both the the reader and
the compiler to understand what's going on. Something like this:

Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user
context using a workqueue.  This replaces opencoded and less efficient
code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO)
and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO.

The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires
a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the
direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating
with the filesystems.

Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these
completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara.  I'm
not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global
workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.

Currently, dio_send_cur_page() submits bio before current page and cached
sdio->cur_page is added to the bio if sdio->boundary is set.  This is
actually wrong because sdio->boundary means the current buffer is the last
one before metadata needs to be read.  So we should rather submit the bio
after the current page is added to it.
