      FS-Cache: Make sure FSCACHE_COOKIE_LOOKING_UP cleared on lookup failure · d461d26d
      David Howells 提交于
      We must make sure that FSCACHE_COOKIE_LOOKING_UP is cleared on lookup failure
      (if an object reaches the LC_DYING state), and we should clear it before
      clearing FSCACHE_COOKIE_CREATING.
      
      If this doesn't happen then fscache_wait_for_deferred_lookup() may hold
      allocation and retrieval operations indefinitely until they're interrupted by
      signals - which in turn pins the dying object until they go away.

      FS-Cache: Handle pages pending storage that get evicted under OOM conditions · 201a1542
      David Howells 提交于
      Handle netfs pages that the vmscan algorithm wants to evict from the pagecache
      under OOM conditions, but that are waiting for write to the cache.  Under these
      conditions, vmscan calls the releasepage() function of the netfs, asking if a
      page can be discarded.
      
      The problem is typified by the following trace of a stuck process:

      In the above backtrace, the following is happening:
      
       (1) A page storage operation is being executed by a slow-work thread
           (fscache_write_op()).
      
       (2) FS-Cache farms the operation out to the cache to perform
           (cachefiles_write_page()).
      
       (3) CacheFiles is then calling Ext3 to perform the actual write, using Ext3's
           standard write (do_sync_write()) under KERNEL_DS directly from the netfs
           page.
      
       (4) However, for Ext3 to perform the write, it must allocate some memory, in
           particular, it must allocate at least one page cache page into which it
           can copy the data from the netfs page.
      
       (5) Under OOM conditions, the memory allocator can't immediately come up with
           a page, so it uses vmscan to find something to discard
           (try_to_free_pages()).
      
       (6) vmscan finds a clean netfs page it might be able to discard (possibly the
           one it's trying to write out).
      
       (7) The netfs is called to throw the page away (nfs_release_page()) - but it's
           called with __GFP_WAIT, so the netfs decides to wait for the store to
           complete (__fscache_wait_on_page_write()).
      
       (8) This blocks a slow-work processing thread - possibly against itself.
      
      The system ends up stuck because it can't write out any netfs pages to the
      cache without allocating more memory.
      
      To avoid this, we make FS-Cache cancel some writes that aren't in the middle of
      actually being performed.  This means that some data won't make it into the
      cache this time.  To support this, a new FS-Cache function is added
      fscache_maybe_release_page() that replaces what the netfs releasepage()
      functions used to do with respect to the cache.
      
      The decisions fscache_maybe_release_page() makes are counted and displayed
      through /proc/fs/fscache/stats on a line labelled "VmScan".  There are four
      counters provided: "nos=N" - pages that weren't pending storage; "gon=N" -
      pages that were pending storage when we first looked, but weren't by the time
      we got the object lock; "bsy=N" - pages that we ignored as they were actively
      being written when we looked; and "can=N" - pages that we cancelled the storage
      of.
      
      What I'd really like to do is alter the behaviour of the cancellation
      heuristics, depending on how necessary it is to expel pages.  If there are
      plenty of other pages that aren't waiting to be written to the cache that
      could be ejected first, then it would be nice to hold up on immediate
      cancellation of cache writes - but I don't see a way of doing that.

      FS-Cache: Fix lock misorder in fscache_write_op() · 1bccf513
      David Howells 提交于
      FS-Cache has two structs internally for keeping track of the internal state of
      a cached file: the fscache_cookie struct, which represents the netfs's state,
      and fscache_object struct, which represents the cache's state.  Each has a
      pointer that points to the other (when both are in existence), and each has a
      spinlock for pointer maintenance.
      
      Since netfs operations approach these structures from the cookie side, they get
      the cookie lock first, then the object lock.  Cache operations, on the other
      hand, approach from the object side, and get the object lock first.  It is not
      then permitted for a cache operation to get the cookie lock whilst it is
      holding the object lock lest deadlock occur; instead, it must do one of two
      things:
      
       (1) increment the cookie usage counter, drop the object lock and then get both
           locks in order, or
      
       (2) simply hold the object lock as certain parts of the cookie may not be
           altered whilst the object lock is held.
      
      It is also not permitted to follow either pointer without holding the lock at
      the end you start with.  To break the pointers between the cookie and the
      object, both locks must be held.
      
      fscache_write_op(), however, violates the locking rules: It attempts to get the
      cookie lock without (a) checking that the cookie pointer is a valid pointer,
      and (b) holding the object lock to protect the cookie pointer whilst it follows
      it.  This is so that it can access the pending page store tree without
      interference from __fscache_write_page().
      
      This is fixed by splitting the cookie lock, such that the page store tracking
      tree is protected by its own lock, and checking that the cookie pointer is
      non-NULL before we attempt to follow it whilst holding the object lock.
      
      The new lock is subordinate to both the cookie lock and the object lock, and so
      should be taken after those.

      FS-Cache: The object-available state can't rely on the cookie to be available · 6897e3df
      David Howells 提交于
      The object-available state in the object processing state machine (as
      processed by fscache_object_available()) can't rely on the cookie to be
      available because the FSCACHE_COOKIE_CREATING bit may have been cleared by
      fscache_obtained_object() prior to the object being put into the
      FSCACHE_OBJECT_AVAILABLE state.
      
      Clearing the FSCACHE_COOKIE_CREATING bit on a cookie permits
      __fscache_relinquish_cookie() to proceed and detach the cookie from the
      object.
      
      To deal with this, we don't dereference object->cookie in
      fscache_object_available() if the object has already been detached.
      
      In addition, a couple of assertions are added into fscache_drop_object() to
      make sure the object is unbound from the cookie before it gets there.

      FS-Cache: Permit cache retrieval ops to be interrupted in the initial wait phase · 5753c441
      David Howells 提交于
      Permit the operations to retrieve data from the cache or to allocate space in
      the cache for future writes to be interrupted whilst they're waiting for
      permission for the operation to proceed.  Typically this wait occurs whilst the
      cache object is being looked up on disk in the background.
      
      If an interruption occurs, and the operation has not yet been given the
      go-ahead to run, the operation is dequeued and cancelled, and control returns
      to the read operation of the netfs routine with none of the requested pages
      having been read or in any way marked as known by the cache.
      
      This means that the initial wait is done interruptibly rather than
      uninterruptibly.
      
      In addition, extra stats values are made available to show the number of ops
      cancelled and the number of cache space allocations interrupted.

      FS-Cache: Use radix tree preload correctly in tracking of pages to be stored · b34df792
      David Howells 提交于
      __fscache_write_page() attempts to load the radix tree preallocation pool for
      the CPU it is on before calling radix_tree_insert(), as the insertion must be
      done inside a pair of spinlocks.
      
      Use of the preallocation pool, however, is contingent on the radix tree being
      initialised without __GFP_WAIT specified.  __fscache_acquire_cookie() was
      passing GFP_NOFS to INIT_RADIX_TREE() - but that includes __GFP_WAIT.
      
      The solution is to AND out __GFP_WAIT.
      
      Additionally, the banner comment to radix_tree_preload() is altered to make
      note of this prerequisite.  Possibly there should be a WARN_ON() too.
      
      Without this fix, I have seen the following recursive deadlock caused by
      radix_tree_insert() attempting to allocate memory inside the spinlocked
      region, which resulted in FS-Cache being called back into to release memory -
      which required the spinlock already held.

      FS-Cache: Clear netfs pointers in cookie after detaching object, not before · 7e311a20
      David Howells 提交于
      Clear the pointers from the fscache_cookie struct to netfs private data after
      clearing the pointer to the cookie from the fscache_object struct and
      releasing the object lock, rather than before.
      
      This allows the netfs private data pointers to be relied on simply by holding
      the object lock, rather than having to hold the cookie lock.  This is makes
      things simpler as the cookie lock has to be taken before the object lock, but
      sometimes the object pointer is all that the code has.

      FS-Cache: Allow the current state of all objects to be dumped · 4fbf4291
      David Howells 提交于
      Allow the current state of all fscache objects to be dumped by doing:
      
      	cat /proc/fs/fscache/objects
      
      By default, all objects and all fields will be shown.  This can be restricted
      by adding a suitable key to one of the caller's keyrings (such as the session
      keyring):
      
      	keyctl add user fscache:objlist "<restrictions>" @s
      
      The <restrictions> are:
      
      	K	Show hexdump of object key (don't show if not given)
      	A	Show hexdump of object aux data (don't show if not given)
      
      And paired restrictions:
      
      	C	Show objects that have a cookie
      	c	Show objects that don't have a cookie
      	B	Show objects that are busy
      	b	Show objects that aren't busy
      	W	Show objects that have pending writes
      	w	Show objects that don't have pending writes
      	R	Show objects that have outstanding reads
      	r	Show objects that don't have outstanding reads
      	S	Show objects that have slow work queued
      	s	Show objects that don't have slow work queued
      
      If neither side of a restriction pair is given, then both are implied.  For
      example:
      
      	keyctl add user fscache:objlist KB @s
      
      shows objects that are busy, and lists their object keys, but does not dump
      their auxiliary data.  It also implies "CcWwRrSs", but as 'B' is given, 'b' is
      not implied.

      SLOW_WORK: Allow a requeueable work item to sleep till the thread is needed · 3bde31a4
      David Howells 提交于
      Add a function to allow a requeueable work item to sleep till the thread
      processing it is needed by the slow-work facility to perform other work.
      
      Sometimes a work item can't progress immediately, but must wait for the
      completion of another work item that's currently being processed by another
      slow-work thread.
      
      In some circumstances, the waiting item could instead - theoretically - put
      itself back on the queue and yield its thread back to the slow-work facility,
      thus waiting till it gets processing time again before attempting to progress.
      This would allow other work items processing time on that thread.
      
      However, this only works if there is something on the queue for it to queue
      behind - otherwise it will just get a thread again immediately, and will end
      up cycling between the queue and the thread, eating up valuable CPU time.
      
      So, slow_work_sleep_till_thread_needed() is provided such that an item can put
      itself on a wait queue that will wake it up when the event it is actually
      interested in occurs, then call this function in lieu of calling schedule().
      
      This function will then sleep until either the item's event occurs or another
      work item appears on the queue.  If another work item is queued, but the
      item's event hasn't occurred, then the work item should requeue itself and
      yield the thread back to the slow-work facility by returning.
      
      This can be used by CacheFiles for an object that is being created on one
      thread to wait for an object being deleted on another thread where there is
      nothing on the queue for the creation to go and wait behind.  As soon as an
      item appears on the queue that could be given thread time instead, CacheFiles
      can stick the creating object back on the queue and return to the slow-work
      facility - assuming the object deletion didn't also complete.

      SLOW_WORK: Allow the owner of a work item to determine if it is queued or not · 31ba99d3
      David Howells 提交于
      Add a function (slow_work_is_queued()) to permit the owner of a work item to
      determine if the item is queued or not.
      
      The work item is counted as being queued if it is actually on the queue, not
      just if it is pending.  If it is executing and pending, then it is not on the
      queue, but will rather be put back on the queue when execution finishes.
      
      This permits a caller to quickly work out if it may be able to put another,
      dependent work item on the queue behind it, or whether it will have to wait
      till that is finished.
      
      This can be used by CacheFiles to work out whether the creation a new object
      can be immediately deferred when it has to wait for an old object to be
      deleted, or whether a wait must take place.  If a wait is necessary, then the
      slow-work thread can otherwise get blocked, preventing the deletion from
      taking place.

      'MARK' indicates how long since an item was queued or began executing.  Lastly,
      the 'DESC' column permits the owner of an item to give some information.
