nfs and cifs on Linux currently have a mount parameter "actimeo" to control
metadata (attribute) caching but cifs does not have additional mount
parameters to allow distinguishing between caching directory metadata
(e.g. needed to revalidate paths) and that for files.
Add new mount parameter "acdirmax" to allow caching metadata for
directories more loosely than file data. NFS adjusts metadata
caching from acdirmin to acdirmax (and another two mount parms
for files) but to reduce complexity, it is safer to just introduce
the one mount parm to allow caching directories longer. The
defaults for acdirmax and actimeo (for cifs.ko) are conservative,
1 second (NFS defaults acdirmax to 60 seconds). For many workloads,
setting acdirmax to a higher value is safe and will improve
performance. This patch leaves unchanged the default values
for caching metadata for files and directories but gives the
user more flexibility in adjusting them safely for their workload
via the new mount parm.

Just like the changes for io-wq, ensure that we re-fork the SQPOLL
thread if the owner execs. Mark the ctx sq thread as sqo_exec if
it dies, and the ring as needing a wakeup which will force the task
to enter the kernel. When it does, setup the new thread and proceed
as usual.

exec will cancel any threads, including the ones that io-wq is using. This
isn't a problem, in fact we'd prefer it to be that way since it means we
know that any async work cancels naturally without having to handle it
proactively.
But it does mean that we need to setup a new manager, as the manager and
workers are gone. Handle this at queue time, and cancel work if we fail.
Since the manager can go away without us noticing, ensure that the manager
itself holds a reference to the 'wq' as well. Rename io_wq_destroy() to
io_wq_put() to reflect that.
In the future we can now simplify exec cancelation handling, for now just
leave it the same.

Before the io-wq thread change, we maintained a hash work map and lock
per-node per-ring. That wasn't ideal, as we really wanted it to be per
ring. But now that we have per-task workers, the hash map ends up being
just per-task. That'll work just fine for the normal case of having
one task use a ring, but if you share the ring between tasks, then it's
considerably worse than it was before.
Make the hash map per ctx instead, which provides full per-ctx buffered
write serialization on hashed writes.

The cause of this is the new code that spurs a scan to garbage collect
speculative preallocations if we fail to reserve enough blocks while
allocating a transaction. While the warning itself is a fairly benign
lockdep complaint, it does expose a potential livelock if the rwsem
behavior ever changes with regards to nesting read locks when someone's
waiting for a write lock.
Fix this by freeing the transaction and jumping back to xfs_trans_alloc
like this patch in the V4 submission[1].

Freed extents are marked busy from the point the freeing transaction
commits until the associated CIL context is checkpointed to the log.
This prevents reuse and overwrite of recently freed blocks before
the changes are committed to disk, which can lead to corruption
after a crash. The exception to this rule is that metadata
allocation is allowed to reuse busy extents because metadata changes
are also logged.
As of commit 97d3ac75e5e0 ("xfs: exact busy extent tracking"), XFS
has allowed modification or complete invalidation of outstanding
busy extents for metadata allocations. This implementation assumes
that use of the associated extent is imminent, which is not always
the case. For example, the trimmed extent might not satisfy the
minimum length of the allocation request, or the allocation
algorithm might be involved in a search for the optimal result based
on locality.
generic/019 reproduces a corruption caused by this scenario. First,
a metadata block (usually a bmbt or symlink block) is freed from an
inode. A subsequent bmbt split on an unrelated inode attempts a near
mode allocation request that invalidates the busy block during the
search, but does not ultimately allocate it. Due to the busy state
invalidation, the block is no longer considered busy to subsequent
allocation. A direct I/O write request immediately allocates the
block and writes to it. Finally, the filesystem crashes while in a
state where the initial metadata block free had not committed to the
on-disk log. After recovery, the original metadata block is in its
original location as expected, but has been corrupted by the
aforementioned dio.
This demonstrates that it is fundamentally unsafe to modify busy
extent state for extents that are not guaranteed to be allocated.
This applies to pretty much all of the code paths that currently
trim busy extents for one reason or another. Therefore to address
this problem, drop the reuse mechanism from the busy extent trim
path. This code already knows how to return partial non-busy ranges
of the targeted free extent and higher level code tracks the busy
state of the allocation attempt. If a block allocation fails where
one or more candidate extents is busy, we force the log and retry
the allocation.

Use the new hugetlb page specific flag HPageMigratable to replace the
page_huge_active interfaces. By it's name, page_huge_active implied that
a huge page was on the active list. However, that is not really what code
checking the flag wanted to know. It really wanted to determine if the
huge page could be migrated. This happens when the page is actually added
to the page cache and/or task page table. This is the reasoning behind
the name change.
The VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() calls in the *_huge_active() interfaces are not
really necessary as we KNOW the page is a hugetlb page. Therefore, they
are removed.
The routine page_huge_active checked for PageHeadHuge before testing the
active bit. This is unnecessary in the case where we hold a reference or
lock and know it is a hugetlb head page. page_huge_active is also called
without holding a reference or lock (scan_movable_pages), and can race
with code freeing the page. The extra check in page_huge_active shortened
the race window, but did not prevent the race. Offline code calling
scan_movable_pages already deals with these races, so removing the check
is acceptable. Add comment to racy code.

Patch series "create hugetlb flags to consolidate state", v3.
While discussing a series of hugetlb fixes in [1], it became evident that
the hugetlb specific page state information is stored in a somewhat
haphazard manner. Code dealing with state information would be easier to
read, understand and maintain if this information was stored in a
consistent manner.
This series uses page.private of the hugetlb head page for storing a set
of hugetlb specific page flags. Routines are priovided for test, set and
clear of the flags.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210106084739.63318-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com
This patch (of 4):
As hugetlbfs evolved, state information about hugetlb pages was added.
One 'convenient' way of doing this was to use available fields in tail
pages. Over time, it has become difficult to know the meaning or contents
of fields simply by looking at a small bit of code. Sometimes, the naming
is just confusing. For example: The PagePrivate flag indicates a huge
page reservation was consumed and needs to be restored if an error is
encountered and the page is freed before it is instantiated. The
page.private field contains the pointer to a subpool if the page is
associated with one.
In an effort to make the code more readable, use page.private to contain
hugetlb specific page flags. These flags will have test, set and clear
functions similar to those used for 'normal' page flags. More
importantly, an enum of flag values will be created with names that
actually reflect their purpose.
In this patch,
- Create infrastructure for hugetlb specific page flag functions
- Move subpool pointer to page[1].private to make way for flags
Create routines with meaningful names to modify subpool field
- Use new HPageRestoreReserve flag instead of PagePrivate
Conversion of other state information will happen in subsequent patches.

alloc_page_buffers() currently uses get_mem_cgroup_from_page() for
charging the buffers to the page owner, which does an rcu-protected
page->memcg lookup and acquires a reference. But buffer allocation has
the page lock held throughout, which pins the page to the memcg and
thereby the memcg - neither rcu nor holding an extra reference during the
allocation are necessary. Use a raw page_memcg() instead.
This was the last user of get_mem_cgroup_from_page(), delete it.

Currently we use struct per_cpu_nodestat to cache the vmstat counters,
which leads to inaccurate statistics especially THP vmstat counters. In
the systems with hundreds of processors it can be GBs of memory. For
example, for a 96 CPUs system, the threshold is the maximum number of 125.
And the per cpu counters can cache 23.4375 GB in total.
The THP page is already a form of batched addition (it will add 512 worth
of memory in one go) so skipping the batching seems like sensible.
Although every THP stats update overflows the per-cpu counter, resorting
to atomic global updates. But it can make the statistics more accuracy
for the THP vmstat counters.
So we convert the NR_FILE_PMDMAPPED account to pages. This patch is
consistent with 8f182270dfec ("mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page
arrival"). Doing this also can make the unit of vmstat counters more
unified. Finally, the unit of the vmstat counters are pages, kB and

Currently we use struct per_cpu_nodestat to cache the vmstat counters,
which leads to inaccurate statistics especially THP vmstat counters. In
the systems with hundreds of processors it can be GBs of memory. For
example, for a 96 CPUs system, the threshold is the maximum number of 125.
And the per cpu counters can cache 23.4375 GB in total.
The THP page is already a form of batched addition (it will add 512 worth
of memory in one go) so skipping the batching seems like sensible.
Although every THP stats update overflows the per-cpu counter, resorting
to atomic global updates. But it can make the statistics more accuracy
for the THP vmstat counters.
So we convert the NR_SHMEM_PMDMAPPED account to pages. This patch is
consistent with 8f182270dfec ("mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page
arrival"). Doing this also can make the unit of vmstat counters more
unified. Finally, the unit of the vmstat counters are pages, kB and

clear_buffer_new() is used to clear buffer new stat. When PAGE_SIZE is

clear_buffer_new() has an enpensive atomic modification operation, Let's
add checking buffer head before clear it as __block_write_begin_int does
which is good for performance.

In commit 9669f51de5c0 I tried to get rid of the undocumented cow gc
lifetime knob. The knob's function was never documented and it now
doesn't really have a function since eof and cow gc have been
consolidated.
Regrettably, xfs/231 relies on it and regresses on for-next. I did not
succeed at getting far enough through fstests patch review for the fixup
to land in time.
Restore the sysctl knob, document what it did (does?), put it on the
deprecation schedule, and rip out a redundant function.

Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs update for 5.12-rc1
This set of driver core patches caused a bunch of problems in linux-next
for the past few weeks, when Saravana tried to set fw_devlink=on as the
default functionality. This caused a number of systems to stop booting,
and lots of bugs were fixed in this area for almost all of the reported
systems, but this option is not ready to be turned on just yet for the
default operation based on this testing, so I've reverted that change at
the very end so we don't have to worry about regressions in 5.12. We
will try to turn this on for 5.13 if testing goes better over the next
few months.
Other than the fixes caused by the fw_devlink testing in here, there's
not much more:
- debugfs fixes for invalid input into debugfs_lookup()
- kerneldoc cleanups
- warn message if platform drivers return an error on their
remove callback (a futile effort, but good to catch).
All of these have been in linux-next for a while now, and the
regressions have gone away with the revert of the fw_devlink change.

There's a small window between lookup dropping the reference to the
worker and calling wake_up_process() on the worker task, where the worker
itself could have exited. We ensure that the worker struct itself is
valid, but worker->task may very well be gone by the time we issue the
wakeup.
Fix the race by using a completion triggered by the reference going to
zero, and having exit wait for that completion before proceeding.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
These races have always been there, they are just more apparent now that
we do early cancel of io-wq when the task exits.
Ensure that the io-wq manager sets task state correctly to not miss
wakeups for task creation. This is important if we get a wakeup after
having marked ourselves as TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. If we do end up creating
workers, then we flip the state back to running, making the subsequent
schedule() a no-op. Also increment the wq ref count before forking the
thread, to avoid a use-after-free.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
If the task ends up doing no IO, the context list is empty and we don't
call into __io_uring_files_cancel() when the task exits. This can cause

context list is empty.

We're now just using fork like we would from userspace, so there's no
need to try and impose extra restrictions or accounting on the user
side of things. That's already being done for us. That also means we
don't have to pass in the user_struct anymore, that's correctly inherited
through ->creds on fork.
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
A few reasons to do this:
- The naming of the manager and worker have changed. That's a user visible
change, so makes sense to flag it.
- Opening certain files that use ->signal (like /proc/self or /dev/tty)
now works, and the flag tells the application upfront that this is the
case.
- Related to the above, using signalfd will now work as well.
