Merge tag 'vfs-6.7.misc' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual fses.
Features:
- Rename and export helpers that get write access to a mount. They
are used in overlayfs to get write access to the upper mount.
- Print the pretty name of the root device on boot failure. This
helps in scenarios where we would usually only print
"unknown-block(1,2)".
- Add an internal SB_I_NOUMASK flag. This is another part in the
endless POSIX ACL saga in a way.
When POSIX ACLs are enabled via SB_POSIXACL the vfs cannot strip
the umask because if the relevant inode has POSIX ACLs set it might
take the umask from there. But if the inode doesn't have any POSIX
ACLs set then we apply the umask in the filesytem itself. So we end
up with:
(1) no SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in vfs
(2) SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in filesystem
The umask semantics associated with SB_POSIXACL allowed filesystems
that don't even support POSIX ACLs at all to raise SB_POSIXACL
purely to avoid umask stripping. That specifically means NFS v4 and
Overlayfs. NFS v4 does it because it delegates this to the server
and Overlayfs because it needs to delegate umask stripping to the
upper filesystem, i.e., the filesystem used as the writable layer.
This went so far that SB_POSIXACL is raised eve on kernels that
don't even have POSIX ACL support at all.
Stop this blatant abuse and add SB_I_NOUMASK which is an internal
superblock flag that filesystems can raise to opt out of umask
handling. That should really only be the two mentioned above. It's
not that we want any filesystems to do this. Ideally we have all
umask handling always in the vfs.
- Make overlayfs use SB_I_NOUMASK too.
- Now that we have SB_I_NOUMASK, stop checking for SB_POSIXACL in
IS_POSIXACL() if the kernel doesn't have support for it. This is a
very old patch but it's only possible to do this now with the wider
cleanup that was done.
- Follow-up work on fake path handling from last cycle. Citing mostly
from Amir:
When overlayfs was first merged, overlayfs files of regular files
and directories, the ones that are installed in file table, had a
"fake" path, namely, f_path is the overlayfs path and f_inode is
the "real" inode on the underlying filesystem.
In v6.5, we took another small step by introducing of the
backing_file container and the file_real_path() helper. This change
allowed vfs and filesystem code to get the "real" path of an
overlayfs backing file. With this change, we were able to make
fsnotify work correctly and report events on the "real" filesystem
objects that were accessed via overlayfs.
This method works fine, but it still leaves the vfs vulnerable to
new code that is not aware of files with fake path. A recent
example is commit

writeback, cgroup: switch inodes with dirty timestamps to release dying cgwbs
The cgwb cleanup routine will try to release the dying cgwb by switching
the attached inodes. It fetches the attached inodes from wb->b_attached
list, omitting the fact that inodes only with dirty timestamps reside in
wb->b_dirty_time list, which is the case when lazytime is enabled. This
causes enormous zombie memory cgroup when lazytime is enabled, as inodes
with dirty timestamps can not be switched to a live cgwb for a long time.
It is reasonable not to switch cgwb for inodes with dirty data, as
otherwise it may break the bandwidth restrictions. However since the
writeback of inode metadata is not accounted for, let's also switch
inodes with dirty timestamps to avoid zombie memory and block cgroups
when laztytime is enabled.

fs-writeback: do not requeue a clean inode having skipped pages
When writing back an inode and performing an fsync on it concurrently, a
deadlock issue may arise as shown below. In each writeback iteration, a
clean inode is requeued to the wb->b_dirty queue due to non-zero
pages_skipped, without anything actually being written. This causes an
infinite loop and prevents the plug from being flushed, resulting in a
deadlock. We now avoid requeuing the clean inode to prevent this issue.

writeback: move wb_over_bg_thresh() call outside lock section
Patch series "cgroup: eliminate atomic rstat flushing", v5. A previous patch series [1] changed most atomic rstat flushing contexts to become non-atomic. This was done to avoid an expensive operation that scales with # cgroups and # cpus to happen with irqs disabled and scheduling not permitted. There were two remaining atomic flushing contexts after that series. This series tries to eliminate them as well, eliminating atomic rstat flushing completely. The two remaining atomic flushing contexts are: (a) wb_over_bg_thresh()->mem_cgroup_wb_stats() (b) mem_cgroup_threshold()->mem_cgroup_usage() For (a), flushing needs to be atomic as wb_writeback() calls wb_over_bg_thresh() with a spinlock held. However, it seems like the call to wb_over_bg_thresh() doesn't need to be protected by that spinlock, so this series proposes a refactoring that moves the call outside the lock criticial section and makes the stats flushing in mem_cgroup_wb_stats() non-atomic. For (b), flushing needs to be atomic as mem_cgroup_threshold() is called with irqs disabled. We only flush the stats when calculating the root usage, as it is approximated as the sum of some memcg stats (file, anon, and optionally swap) instead of the conventional page counter. This series proposes changing this calculation to use the global stats instead, eliminating the need for a memcg stat flush. After these 2 contexts are eliminated, we no longer need mem_cgroup_flush_stats_atomic() or cgroup_rstat_flush_atomic(). We can remove them and simplify the code. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230330191801.1967435-1-yosryahmed@google.com/ This patch (of 5): wb_over_bg_thresh() calls mem_cgroup_wb_stats() which invokes an rstat flush, which can be expensive on large systems. Currently, wb_writeback() calls wb_over_bg_thresh() within a lock section, so we have to do the rstat flush atomically. On systems with a lot of cpus and/or cgroups, this can cause us to disable irqs for a long time, potentially causing problems. Move the call to wb_over_bg_thresh() outside the lock section in preparation to make the rstat flush in mem_cgroup_wb_stats() non-atomic. The list_empty(&wb->work_list) check should be okay outside the lock section of wb->list_lock as it is protected by a separate lock (wb->work_lock), and wb_over_bg_thresh() doesn't seem like it is modifying any of wb->b_* lists the wb->list_lock is protecting. Also, the loop seems to be already releasing and reacquring the lock, so this refactoring looks safe.

fs: record I_DIRTY_TIME even if inode already has I_DIRTY_INODE
Currently the I_DIRTY_TIME will never get set if the inode already has I_DIRTY_INODE with assumption that it supersedes I_DIRTY_TIME. That's true, however ext4 will only update the on-disk inode in ->dirty_inode(), not on actual writeback. As a result if the inode already has I_DIRTY_INODE state by the time we get to __mark_inode_dirty() only with I_DIRTY_TIME, the time was already filled into on-disk inode and will not get updated until the next I_DIRTY_INODE update, which might never come if we crash or get a power failure. The problem can be reproduced on ext4 by running xfstest generic/622 with -o iversion mount option. Fix it by allowing I_DIRTY_TIME to be set even if the inode already has I_DIRTY_INODE. Also make sure that the case is properly handled in writeback_single_inode() as well. Additionally changes in xfs_fs_dirty_inode() was made to accommodate for I_DIRTY_TIME in flag.

writeback: avoid use-after-free after removing device
When a disk is removed, bdi_unregister gets called to stop further
writeback and wait for associated delayed work to complete. However,
wb_inode_writeback_end() may schedule bandwidth estimation dwork after
this has completed, which can result in the timer attempting to access the
just freed bdi_writeback.
Fix this by checking if the bdi_writeback is alive, similar to when
scheduling writeback work.
Since this requires wb->work_lock, and wb_inode_writeback_end() may get
called from interrupt, switch wb->work_lock to an irqsafe lock.

writeback: Avoid skipping inode writeback
We have run into an issue that a task gets stuck in
balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() when perform I/O stress testing.
The reason we observed is that an I_DIRTY_PAGES inode with lots
of dirty pages is in b_dirty_time list and standard background
writeback cannot writeback the inode.
After studing the relevant code, the following scenario may lead
to the issue:
task1 task2
----- -----
fuse_flush
write_inode_now //in b_dirty_time
writeback_single_inode
__writeback_single_inode
fuse_write_end
filemap_dirty_folio
__xa_set_mark:PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY
lock inode->i_lock
if mapping tagged PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY
inode->i_state |= I_DIRTY_PAGES
unlock inode->i_lock
__mark_inode_dirty:I_DIRTY_PAGES
lock inode->i_lock
-was dirty,inode stays in
-b_dirty_time
unlock inode->i_lock
if(!(inode->i_state & I_DIRTY_All))
-not true,so nothing done
This patch moves the dirty inode to b_dirty list when the inode
currently is not queued in b_io or b_more_io list at the end of
writeback_single_inode.

inode_congested() reports if the backing-device for the inode is congested. No bdi reports congestion any more, so this always returns 'false'. So remove inode_congested() and related functions, and remove the call sites, assuming that inode_congested() always returns 'false'.

Merge tag 'fscache-rewrite-20220111' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull fscache rewrite from David Howells:
"This is a set of patches that rewrites the fscache driver and the
cachefiles driver, significantly simplifying the code compared to
what's upstream, removing the complex operation scheduling and object
state machine in favour of something much smaller and simpler.
The series is structured such that the first few patches disable
fscache use by the network filesystems using it, remove the cachefiles
driver entirely and as much of the fscache driver as can be got away
with without causing build failures in the network filesystems.
The patches after that recreate fscache and then cachefiles,
attempting to add the pieces in a logical order. Finally, the
filesystems are reenabled and then the very last patch changes the
documentation.
[!] Note: I have dropped the cifs patch for the moment, leaving local
caching in cifs disabled. I've been having trouble getting that
working. I think I have it done, but it needs more testing (there
seem to be some test failures occurring with v5.16 also from
xfstests), so I propose deferring that patch to the end of the
merge window.
WHY REWRITE?
============
Fscache's operation scheduling API was intended to handle sequencing
of cache operations, which were all required (where possible) to run
asynchronously in parallel with the operations being done by the
network filesystem, whilst allowing the cache to be brought online and
offline and to interrupt service for invalidation.
With the advent of the tmpfile capacity in the VFS, however, an
opportunity arises to do invalidation much more simply, without having
to wait for I/O that's actually in progress: Cachefiles can simply
create a tmpfile, cut over the file pointer for the backing object
attached to a cookie and abandon the in-progress I/O, dismissing it
upon completion.
Future work here would involve using Omar Sandoval's vfs_link() with
AT_LINK_REPLACE[1] to allow an extant file to be displaced by a new
hard link from a tmpfile as currently I have to unlink the old file
first.
These patches can also simplify the object state handling as I/O
operations to the cache don't all have to be brought to a stop in
order to invalidate a file. To that end, and with an eye on to writing
a new backing cache model in the future, I've taken the opportunity to
simplify the indexing structure.
I've separated the index cookie concept from the file cookie concept
by C type now. The former is now called a "volume cookie" (struct
fscache_volume) and there is a container of file cookies. There are
then just the two levels. All the index cookie levels are collapsed
into a single volume cookie, and this has a single printable string as
a key. For instance, an AFS volume would have a key of something like
"afs,example.com,1000555", combining the filesystem name, cell name
and volume ID. This is freeform, but must not have '/' chars in it.
I've also eliminated all pointers back from fscache into the network
filesystem. This required the duplication of a little bit of data in
the cookie (cookie key, coherency data and file size), but it's not
actually that much. This gets rid of problems with making sure we keep
netfs data structures around so that the cache can access them.
These patches mean that most of the code that was in the drivers
before is simply gone and those drivers are now almost entirely new
code. That being the case, there doesn't seem any particular reason to
try and maintain bisectability across it. Further, there has to be a
point in the middle where things are cut over as there's a single
point everything has to go through (ie. /dev/cachefiles) and it can't
be in use by two drivers at once.
ISSUES YET OUTSTANDING
======================
There are some issues still outstanding, unaddressed by this patchset,
that will need fixing in future patchsets, but that don't stop this
series from being usable:
(1) The cachefiles driver needs to stop using the backing filesystem's
metadata to store information about what parts of the cache are
populated. This is not reliable with modern extent-based
filesystems.
Fixing this is deferred to a separate patchset as it involves
negotiation with the network filesystem and the VM as to how much
data to download to fulfil a read - which brings me on to (2)...
(2) NFS (and CIFS with the dropped patch) do not take account of how
the cache would like I/O to be structured to meet its granularity
requirements. Previously, the cache used page granularity, which
was fine as the network filesystems also dealt in page
granularity, and the backing filesystem (ext4, xfs or whatever)
did whatever it did out of sight. However, we now have folios to
deal with and the cache will now have to store its own metadata to
track its contents.
The change I'm looking at making for cachefiles is to store
content bitmaps in one or more xattrs and making a bit in the map
correspond to something like a 256KiB block. However, the size of
an xattr and the fact that they have to be read/updated in one go
means that I'm looking at covering 1GiB of data per 512-byte map
and storing each map in an xattr. Cachefiles has the potential to
grow into a fully fledged filesystem of its very own if I'm not
careful.
However, I'm also looking at changing things even more radically
and going to a different model of how the cache is arranged and
managed - one that's more akin to the way, say, openafs does
things - which brings me on to (3)...
(3) The way cachefilesd does culling is very inefficient for large
caches and it would be better to move it into the kernel if I can
as cachefilesd has to keep asking the kernel if it can cull a
file. Changing the way the backend works would allow this to be
addressed.
BITS THAT MAY BE CONTROVERSIAL
==============================
There are some bits I've added that may be controversial:
(1) I've provided a flag, S_KERNEL_FILE, that cachefiles uses to check
if a files is already being used by some other kernel service
(e.g. a duplicate cachefiles cache in the same directory) and
reject it if it is. This isn't entirely necessary, but it helps
prevent accidental data corruption.
I don't want to use S_SWAPFILE as that has other effects, but
quite possibly swapon() should set S_KERNEL_FILE too.
Note that it doesn't prevent userspace from interfering, though
perhaps it should. (I have made it prevent a marked directory from
being rmdir-able).
(2) Cachefiles wants to keep the backing file for a cookie open whilst
we might need to write to it from network filesystem writeback.
The problem is that the network filesystem unuses its cookie when
its file is closed, and so we have nothing pinning the cachefiles
file open and it will get closed automatically after a short time
to avoid EMFILE/ENFILE problems.
Reopening the cache file, however, is a problem if this is being
done due to writeback triggered by exit(). Some filesystems will
oops if we try to open a file in that context because they want to
access current->fs or suchlike.
To get around this, I added the following:
(A) An inode flag, I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB, to be set on a network
filesystem inode to indicate that we have a usage count on the
cookie caching that inode.
(B) A flag in struct writeback_control, unpinned_fscache_wb, that
is set when __writeback_single_inode() clears the last dirty
page from i_pages - at which point it clears
I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and sets this flag.
This has to be done here so that clearing I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB
can be done atomically with the check of PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY
that clears I_DIRTY_PAGES.
(C) A function, fscache_set_page_dirty(), which if it is not set,
sets I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and calls fscache_use_cookie() to
pin the cache resources.
(D) A function, fscache_unpin_writeback(), to be called by
->write_inode() to unuse the cookie.
(E) A function, fscache_clear_inode_writeback(), to be called when
the inode is evicted, before clear_inode() is called. This
cleans up any lingering I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB.
The network filesystem can then use these tools to make sure that
fscache_write_to_cache() can write locally modified data to the
cache as well as to the server.
For the future, I'm working on write helpers for netfs lib that
should allow this facility to be removed by keeping track of the
dirty regions separately - but that's incomplete at the moment and
is also going to be affected by folios, one way or another, since
it deals with pages"

vfs, fscache: Implement pinning of cache usage for writeback
Cachefiles has a problem in that it needs to keep the backing file for a
cookie open whilst there are local modifications pending that need to be
written to it. However, we don't want to keep the file open indefinitely,
as that causes EMFILE/ENFILE/ENOMEM problems.
Reopening the cache file, however, is a problem if this is being done due
to writeback triggered by exit(). Some filesystems will oops if we try to
open a file in that context because they want to access current->fs or
other resources that have already been dismantled.
To get around this, I added the following:
(1) An inode flag, I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB, to be set on a network filesystem
inode to indicate that we have a usage count on the cookie caching
that inode.
(2) A flag in struct writeback_control, unpinned_fscache_wb, that is set
when __writeback_single_inode() clears the last dirty page from
i_pages - at which point it clears I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and sets this

I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and calls fscache_use_cookie() to pin the cache
resources.

to unuse the cookie.

writeback: prefer struct_size over open coded arithmetic
As noted in the "Deprecated Interfaces, Language Features, Attributes, and Conventions" documentation [1], size calculations (especially multiplication) should not be performed in memory allocator (or similar) function arguments due to the risk of them overflowing. This could lead to values wrapping around and a smaller allocation being made than the caller was expecting. Using those allocations could lead to linear overflows of heap memory and other misbehaviors. In this case these are not actually dynamic sizes: all the operands involved in the calculation are constant values. However it is better to refactor them anyway, just to keep the open-coded math idiom out of code. So, use the struct_size() helper to do the arithmetic instead of the argument "size + count * size" in the kzalloc() functions. This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle and audited and fixed manually.

writeback: memcg: simplify cgroup_writeback_by_id
Currently cgroup_writeback_by_id calls mem_cgroup_wb_stats() to get dirty pages for a memcg. However mem_cgroup_wb_stats() does a lot more than just get the number of dirty pages. Just directly get the number of dirty pages instead of calling mem_cgroup_wb_stats(). Also cgroup_writeback_by_id() is only called for best-effort dirty flushing, so remove the unused 'nr' parameter and no need to explicitly flush memcg stats.

writeback: reliably update bandwidth estimation
Currently we trigger writeback bandwidth estimation from balance_dirty_pages() and from wb_writeback(). However neither of these need to trigger when the system is relatively idle and writeback is triggered e.g. from fsync(2). Make sure writeback estimates happen reliably by triggering them from do_writepages().

writeback: track number of inodes under writeback
Patch series "writeback: Fix bandwidth estimates", v4. Fix estimate of writeback throughput when device is not fully busy doing writeback. Michael Stapelberg has reported that such workload (e.g. generated by linking) tends to push estimated throughput down to 0 and as a result writeback on the device is practically stalled. The first three patches fix the reported issue, the remaining two patches are unrelated cleanups of problems I've noticed when reading the code. This patch (of 4): Track number of inodes under writeback for each bdi_writeback structure. We will use this to decide whether wb does any IO and so we can estimate its writeback throughput. In principle we could use number of pages under writeback (WB_WRITEBACK counter) for this however normal percpu counter reads are too inaccurate for our purposes and summing the counter is too expensive.

The crash happens on an attempt to iterate over attached pagecache pages
and check the dirty flag: a dax inode's xarray contains pfn's instead of
generic struct page pointers.
This happens for DAX and not for other kinds of non-page entries in the
inodes because it's a tagged iteration, and shadow/swap entries are
never tagged; only DAX entries get tagged.
Fix the problem by bailing out (with the false return value) of
inode_prepare_sbs_switch() if a dax inode is passed.

writeback, cgroup: release dying cgwbs by switching attached inodes
Asynchronously try to release dying cgwbs by switching attached inodes to the nearest living ancestor wb. It helps to get rid of per-cgroup writeback structures themselves and of pinned memory and block cgroups, which are significantly larger structures (mostly due to large per-cpu statistics data). This prevents memory waste and helps to avoid different scalability problems caused by large piles of dying cgroups. Reuse the existing mechanism of inode switching used for foreign inode detection. To speed things up batch up to 115 inode switching in a single operation (the maximum number is selected so that the resulting struct inode_switch_wbs_context can fit into 1024 bytes). Because every switching consists of two steps divided by an RCU grace period, it would be too slow without batching. Please note that the whole batch counts as a single operation (when increasing/decreasing isw_nr_in_flight). This allows to keep umounting working (flush the switching queue), however prevents cleanups from consuming the whole switching quota and effectively blocking the frn switching. A cgwb cleanup operation can fail due to different reasons (e.g. not enough memory, the cgwb has an in-flight/pending io, an attached inode in a wrong state, etc). In this case the next scheduled cleanup will make a new attempt. An attempt is made each time a new cgwb is offlined (in other words a memcg and/or a blkcg is deleted by a user). In the future an additional attempt scheduled by a timer can be implemented.

writeback, cgroup: support switching multiple inodes at once
Currently only a single inode can be switched to another writeback structure at once. That means to switch an inode a separate inode_switch_wbs_context structure must be allocated, and a separate rcu callback and work must be scheduled. It's fine for the existing ad-hoc switching, which is not happening that often, but sub-optimal for massive switching required in order to release a writeback structure. To prepare for it, let's add a support for switching multiple inodes at once. Instead of containing a single inode pointer, inode_switch_wbs_context will contain a NULL-terminated array of inode pointers. inode_do_switch_wbs() will be called for each inode. To optimize the locking bdi->wb_switch_rwsem, old_wb's and new_wb's list_locks will be acquired and released only once altogether for all inodes. wb_wakeup() will be also be called only once. Instead of calling wb_put(old_wb) after each successful switch, wb_put_many() is introduced and used.

writeback, cgroup: keep list of inodes attached to bdi_writeback
Currently there is no way to iterate over inodes attached to a specific cgwb structure. It limits the ability to efficiently reclaim the writeback structure itself and associated memory and block cgroup structures without scanning all inodes belonging to a sb, which can be prohibitively expensive. While dirty/in-active-writeback an inode belongs to one of the bdi_writeback's io lists: b_dirty, b_io, b_more_io and b_dirty_time. Once cleaned up, it's removed from all io lists. So the inode->i_io_list can be reused to maintain the list of inodes, attached to a bdi_writeback structure. This patch introduces a new wb->b_attached list, which contains all inodes which were dirty at least once and are attached to the given cgwb. Inodes attached to the root bdi_writeback structures are never placed on such list. The following patch will use this list to try to release cgwbs structures more efficiently.

writeback, cgroup: switch to rcu_work API in inode_switch_wbs()
Inode's wb switching requires two steps divided by an RCU grace period. It's currently implemented as an RCU callback inode_switch_wbs_rcu_fn(), which schedules inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() as a work. Switching to the rcu_work API allows to do the same in a cleaner and slightly shorter form.

writeback, cgroup: increment isw_nr_in_flight before grabbing an inode
isw_nr_in_flight is used to determine whether the inode switch queue should be flushed from the umount path. Currently it's increased after grabbing an inode and even scheduling the switch work. It means the umount path can walk past cleanup_offline_cgwb() with active inode references, which can result in a "Busy inodes after unmount." message and use-after-free issues (with inode->i_sb which gets freed). Fix it by incrementing isw_nr_in_flight before doing anything with the inode and decrementing in the case when switching wasn't scheduled. The problem hasn't yet been seen in the real life and was discovered by Jan Kara by looking into the code.

writeback, cgroup: add smp_mb() to cgroup_writeback_umount()
A full memory barrier is required between clearing SB_ACTIVE flag in generic_shutdown_super() and checking isw_nr_in_flight in cgroup_writeback_umount(), otherwise a new switch operation might be scheduled after atomic_read(&isw_nr_in_flight) returned 0. This would result in a non-flushed isw_wq, and a potential crash. The problem hasn't yet been seen in the real life and was discovered by Jan Kara by looking into the code.

writeback, cgroup: do not switch inodes with I_WILL_FREE flag
Patch series "cgroup, blkcg: prevent dirty inodes to pin dying memory cgroups", v9. When an inode is getting dirty for the first time it's associated with a wb structure (see __inode_attach_wb()). It can later be switched to another wb (if e.g. some other cgroup is writing a lot of data to the same inode), but otherwise stays attached to the original wb until being reclaimed. The problem is that the wb structure holds a reference to the original memory and blkcg cgroups. So if an inode has been dirty once and later is actively used in read-only mode, it has a good chance to pin down the original memory and blkcg cgroups forever. This is often the case with services bringing data for other services, e.g. updating some rpm packages. In the real life it becomes a problem due to a large size of the memcg structure, which can easily be 1000x larger than an inode. Also a really large number of dying cgroups can raise different scalability issues, e.g. making the memory reclaim costly and less effective. To solve the problem inodes should be eventually detached from the corresponding writeback structure. It's inefficient to do it after every writeback completion. Instead it can be done whenever the original memory cgroup is offlined and writeback structure is getting killed. Scanning over a (potentially long) list of inodes and detach them from the writeback structure can take quite some time. To avoid scanning all inodes, attached inodes are kept on a new list (b_attached). To make it less noticeable to a user, the scanning and switching is performed from a work context. Big thanks to Jan Kara, Dennis Zhou, Hillf Danton and Tejun Heo for their ideas and contribution to this patchset. This patch (of 8): If an inode's state has I_WILL_FREE flag set, the inode will be freed soon, so there is no point in trying to switch the inode to a different cgwb. I_WILL_FREE was ignored since the introduction of the inode switching, so it looks like it doesn't lead to any noticeable issues for a user. This is why the patch is not intended for a stable backport.

writeback: fix obtain a reference to a freeing memcg css
The caller of wb_get_create() should pin the memcg, because
wb_get_create() relies on this guarantee. The rcu read lock
only can guarantee that the memcg css returned by css_from_id()
cannot be released, but the reference of the memcg can be zero.
rcu_read_lock()
memcg_css = css_from_id()
wb_get_create(memcg_css)
cgwb_create(memcg_css)
// css_get can change the ref counter from 0 back to 1
css_get(memcg_css)
rcu_read_unlock()
Fix it by holding a reference to the css before calling
wb_get_create(). This is not a problem I encountered in the
real world. Just the result of a code review.
Fixes:

block_dump: remove block_dump feature in mark_inode_dirty()
block_dump is an old debugging interface, one of it's functions is used to print the information about who write which file on disk. If we enable block_dump through /proc/sys/vm/block_dump and turn on debug log level, we can gather information about write process name, target file name and disk from kernel message. This feature is realized in block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(), it print above information into kernel message directly when marking inode dirty, so it is noisy and can easily trigger log storm. At the same time, get the dentry refcount is also not safe, we found it will lead to deadlock on ext4 file system with data=journal mode. After tracepoints has been introduced into the kernel, we got a tracepoint in __mark_inode_dirty(), which is a better replacement of block_dump___mark_inode_dirty(). The only downside is that it only trace the inode number and not a file name, but it probably doesn't matter because the original printed file name in block_dump is not accurate in some cases, and we can still find it through the inode number and device id. So this patch delete the dirting inode part of block_dump feature.
