We try to avoid livelocks of writeback when some steadily creates dirty pages in a mapping we are writing out. For memory-cleaning writeback, using nr_to_write works reasonably well but we cannot really use it for data integrity writeback. This patch tries to solve the problem. The idea is simple: Tag all pages that should be written back with a special tag (TOWRITE) in the radix tree. This can be done rather quickly and thus livelocks should not happen in practice. Then we start doing the hard work of locking pages and sending them to disk only for those pages that have TOWRITE tag set. Note: Adding new radix tree tag grows radix tree node from 288 to 296 bytes for 32-bit archs and from 552 to 560 bytes for 64-bit archs. However, the number of slab/slub items per page remains the same (13 and 7 respectively).

If sget() finds a matching superblock being set up, it'll grab an active reference to it and grab s_umount. That's fine - we'll wait for completion of foofs_get_sb() that way. However, if said foofs_get_sb() fails we'll end up holding the halfway-created superblock. deactivate_locked_super() called by foofs_get_sb() will just unlock the sucker since we are holding another active reference to it. What we need is a way to tell if superblock has been successfully set up. Unfortunately, neither ->s_root nor the check for MS_ACTIVE quite fit. Cheap and easy way, suitable for backport: new flag set by the (only) caller of ->get_sb(). If that flag isn't present by the time sget() grabbed s_umount on preexisting superblock it has found, it's seeing a stillborn and should just bury it with deactivate_locked_super() (and repeat the search). Longer term we want to set that flag in ->get_sb() instances (and check for it to distinguish between "sget() found us a live sb" and "sget() has allocated an sb, we need to set it up" in there, instead of checking ->s_root as we do now).

We'll need the path to implement the flags field for statvfs support. We do have it available in all callers except: - ecryptfs_statfs. This one doesn't actually need vfs_statfs but just needs to do a caller to the lower filesystem statfs method. - sys_ustat. Add a non-exported statfs_by_dentry helper for it which doesn't won't be able to fill out the flags field later on. In addition rename the helpers for statfs vs fstatfs to do_*statfs instead of the misleading vfs prefix.

Essentially, the minimal variant of ->evict_inode(). It's a trimmed-down clear_inode(), sans any fs callbacks. Once it returns we know that no async writeback will be happening; every ->evict_inode() instance should do that once and do that before doing anything ->write_inode() could interfere with (e.g. freeing the on-disk inode).

add I_CLEAR instead of replacing I_FREEING with it. I_CLEAR is equivalent to I_FREEING for almost all code looking at either; it's there to keep track of having called clear_inode() exactly once per inode lifetime, at some point after having set I_FREEING. I_CLEAR and I_FREEING never get set at the same time with the current code, so we can switch to setting i_flags to I_FREEING | I_CLEAR instead of I_CLEAR without loss of information. As the result of such change, checks become simpler and the amount of code that needs to know about I_CLEAR shrinks a lot. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in ->setattr by adding those checks to inode_change_ok. Also clean up and document inode_change_ok to make this obvious. As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious. Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an audit for its removal anyway. Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers. This moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence. In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate so it was left out in the opencoded variant: spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs, which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

Commit a82afdfc (block: use the same failfast bits for bio and request) moved BIO_RW_* bits around such that they match up with REQ_* bits. Unfortunately, fs.h hard coded RW_MASK, RWA_MASK, READ, WRITE, READA and SWRITE as 0, 1, 2 and 3, and expected them to match with BIO_RW_* bits. READ/WRITE didn't change but BIO_RW_AHEAD was moved to bit 4 instead of bit 1, breaking RWA_MASK, READA and SWRITE. This patch updates RWA_MASK, READA and SWRITE such that they match the BIO_RW_* bits again. A follow up patch will update the definitions to directly use BIO_RW_* bits so that this kind of breakage won't happen again. Neil also spotted missing RWA_MASK conversion. Stable: The offending commit a82afdfc was released with v2.6.32, so this patch should be applied to all kernels since then but it must _NOT_ be applied to kernels earlier than that.

Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too. This allows to more easily trace the type of I/O from the filesystem down to the block driver. There were two flags in the bio that were missing in the requests: BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD. Also I've renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them.

A barrier request should by defintion have priority in get_request and let the queue be unplugged immediately as it's blocking all forward progress due to the queue draining. Most filesystems already get this implicitly by the way how submit_bh treats the buffer_ordered flag, and gfs2 sets it explicitly. But btrfs and XFS are still forgetting to set the flag, as is blkdev_issue_flush and some places in DM/MD. For XFS on metadata heavy workloads this gives a consistent speedup in the 2-3% range.

Currently MAY_ACCESS means that filesystems must check the permissions right then and not rely on cached results or the results of future operations on the object. This can be because of a call to sys_access() or because of a call to chdir() which needs to check search without relying on any future operations inside that dir.

This is a new f_mode which can only be set by the kernel. It indicates that the fd was opened by fanotify and should not cause future fanotify events. This is needed to prevent fanotify livelock. An example of obvious livelock is from fanotify close events. Process A closes file1 This creates a close event for file1. fanotify opens file1 for Listener X Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1. This creates a close event for file1. fanotify opens file1 for Listener X Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1. This creates a close event for file1. fanotify opens file1 for Listener X Listener X deals with the event and closes its fd for file1. notice a pattern? The fix is to add the FMODE_NONOTIFY bit to the open filp done by the kernel for fanotify. Thus when that file is used it will not generate future events. This patch simply defines the bit.

This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()', 'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly. Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic superblock synchronization optimization which is about preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up even if there is nothing to synchronize. This patch does not do any functional change, just adds accessor functions.

Introduce a new truncate calling sequence into fs/mm subsystems. Rather than setattr > vmtruncate > truncate, have filesystems call their truncate sequence from ->setattr if filesystem specific operations are required. vmtruncate is deprecated, and truncate_pagecache and inode_newsize_ok helpers introduced previously should be used. simple_setattr is introduced for simple in-ram filesystems to implement the new truncate sequence. Eventually all filesystems should be converted to implement a setattr, and the default code in notify_change should go away. simple_setsize is also introduced to perform just the ATTR_SIZE portion of simple_setattr (ie. changing i_size and trimming pagecache). To implement the new truncate sequence: - filesystem specific manipulations (eg freeing blocks) must be done in the setattr method rather than ->truncate. - vmtruncate can not be used by core code to trim blocks past i_size in the event of write failure after allocation, so this must be performed in the fs code. - convert usage of helpers block_write_begin, nobh_write_begin, cont_write_begin, and *blockdev_direct_IO* to use _newtrunc postfixed variants. These avoid calling vmtruncate to trim blocks (see previous). - inode_setattr should not be used. generic_setattr is a new function to be used to copy simple attributes into the generic inode. - make use of the better opportunity to handle errors with the new sequence. Big problem with the previous calling sequence: the filesystem is not called until i_size has already changed. This means it is not allowed to fail the call, and also it does not know what the previous i_size was. Also, generic code calling vmtruncate to truncate allocated blocks in case of error had no good way to return a meaningful error (or, for example, atomically handle block deallocation).

We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently. The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with, the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync which can lead to some confusion. This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious what to expect. In addition add some documentation for both methods. Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

__aio_put_req() plays sick games with file refcount. What it wants is fput() from atomic context; it's almost always done with f_count > 1, so they only have to deal with delayed work in rare cases when their reference happens to be the last one. Current code decrements f_count and if it hasn't hit 0, everything is fine. Otherwise it keeps a pointer to struct file (with zero f_count!) around and has delayed work do __fput() on it. Better way to do it: use atomic_long_add_unless( , -1, 1) instead of !atomic_long_dec_and_test(). IOW, decrement it only if it's not the last reference, leave refcount alone if it was. And use normal fput() in delayed work. I've made that atomic_long_add_unless call a new helper - fput_atomic(). Drops a reference to file if it's safe to do in atomic (i.e. if that's not the last one), tells if it had been able to do that. aio.c converted to it, __fput() use is gone. req->ki_file *always* contributes to refcount now. And __fput() became static. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Because BTRFS can do RAID and such, we need our own submit hook so we can setup the bio's in the correct fashion, and handle checksum errors properly. So there are a few changes here 1) The submit_io hook. This is straightforward, just call this instead of submit_bio. 2) Allow the fs to return -ENOTBLK for reads. Usually this has only worked for writes, since writes can fallback onto buffered IO. But BTRFS needs the option of falling back on buffered IO if it encounters a compressed extent, since we need to read the entire extent in and decompress it. So if we get -ENOTBLK back from get_block we'll return back and fallback on buffered just like the write case. I've tested these changes with fsx and everything seems to work.

It seems an annotation like the following is sufficient to fix this (it does get rid of the lockdep trace in my simple tests); however I would like to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the locking, hence the CC list...

Currently the way we do freezing is by passing sb>s_bdev to freeze_bdev and then letting it do all the work. But freezing is more of an fs thing, and doesn't really have much to do with the bdev at all, all the work gets done with the super. In btrfs we do not populate s_bdev, since we can have multiple bdev's for one fs and setting s_bdev makes removing devices from a pool kind of tricky. This means that freezing a btrfs filesystem fails, which causes us to corrupt with things like tux-on-ice which use the fsfreeze mechanism. So instead of populating sb->s_bdev with a random bdev in our pool, I've broken the actual fs freezing stuff into freeze_super and thaw_super. These just take the super_block that we're freezing and does the appropriate work. It's basically just copy and pasted from freeze_bdev. I've then converted freeze_bdev over to use the new super helpers. I've tested this with ext4 and btrfs and verified everything continues to work the same as before. The only new gotcha is multiple calls to the fsfreeze ioctl will return EBUSY if the fs is already frozen. I thought this was a better solution than adding a freeze counter to the super_block, but if everybody hates this idea I'm open to suggestions.
