* dax: remote unused fault wrappersRoss Zwisler2016-07-271-59/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the unused wrappers dax_fault() and dax_pmd_fault(). After this removal, rename __dax_fault() and __dax_pmd_fault() to dax_fault() and dax_pmd_fault() respectively, and update all callers. The dax_fault() and dax_pmd_fault() wrappers were initially intended to capture some filesystem independent functionality around page faults (calling sb_start_pagefault() & sb_end_pagefault(), updating file mtime and ctime). However, the following commits: 5726b27b09cc ("ext2: Add locking for DAX faults") ea3d7209ca01 ("ext4: fix races between page faults and hole punching") added locking to the ext2 and ext4 filesystems after these common operations but before __dax_fault() and __dax_pmd_fault() were called. This means that these wrappers are no longer used, and are unlikely to be used in the future. XFS has had locking analogous to what was recently added to ext2 and ext4 since DAX support was initially introduced by: 6b698edeeef0 ("xfs: add DAX file operations support") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160714214049.20075-2-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> Cc: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Andreas Dilger <adilger.kernel@dilger.ca> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* dax: fix offset overflow in dax_ioEric Sandeen2016-06-271-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This isn't functionally apparent for some reason, but when we test io at extreme offsets at the end of the loff_t rang, such as in fstests xfs/071, the calculation of "max" in dax_io() can be wrong due to pos + size overflowing. For example, # xfs_io -c "pwrite 9223372036854771712 512" /mnt/test/file enters dax_io with: start 0x7ffffffffffff000 end 0x7ffffffffffff200 and the rounded up "size" variable is 0x1000. This yields: pos + size 0x8000000000000000 (overflows loff_t) end 0x7ffffffffffff200 Due to the overflow, the min() function picks the wrong value for the "max" variable, and when we send (max - pos) into i.e. copy_from_iter_pmem() it is also the wrong value. This somehow(tm) gets magically absorbed without incident, probably because iter->count is correct. But it seems best to fix it up properly by comparing the two values as unsigned.

| * dax: Use radix tree entry lock to protect cow faultsJan Kara2016-05-191-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When doing cow faults, we cannot directly fill in PTE as we do for other faults as we rely on generic code to do proper accounting of the cowed page. We also have no page to lock to protect against races with truncate as other faults have and we need the protection to extend until the moment generic code inserts cowed page into PTE thus at that point we have no protection of fs-specific i_mmap_sem. So far we relied on using i_mmap_lock for the protection however that is completely special to cow faults. To make fault locking more uniform use DAX entry lock instead.

CPU0 (write fault) CPU1 (read fault) __dax_fault() __dax_fault() get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped if (!buffer_mapped(&bh)) if (vmf->flags & FAULT_FLAG_WRITE) get_block(inode, block, &bh, 1) -> allocates blocks if (page) -> no if (!buffer_mapped(&bh)) if (vmf->flags & FAULT_FLAG_WRITE) { } else { dax_load_hole(); } dax_insert_mapping() And we are in a situation where we fail in dax_radix_entry() with -EIO. Another problem with the current DAX page fault locking is that there is no race-free way to clear dirty tag in the radix tree. We can always end up with clean radix tree and dirty data in CPU cache. We fix the first problem by introducing locking of exceptional radix tree entries in DAX mappings acting very similarly to page lock and thus synchronizing properly faults against the same mapping index. The same lock can later be used to avoid races when clearing radix tree dirty tag.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the handling of huge pages for DAX is racy. For example the following can happen: CPU0 (THP write fault) CPU1 (normal read fault) __dax_pmd_fault() __dax_fault() get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped if (!buffer_mapped(&bh) && write) get_block(inode, block, &bh, 1) -> allocates blocks truncate_pagecache_range(inode, lstart, lend); dax_load_hole(); This results in data corruption since process on CPU1 won't see changes into the file done by CPU0. The race can happen even if two normal faults race however with THP the situation is even worse because the two faults don't operate on the same entries in the radix tree and we want to use these entries for serialization. So make THP support in DAX code depend on CONFIG_BROKEN for now. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, __dax_fault() does not call get_blocks() callback with create argument set, when we got back unwritten extent from the initial get_blocks() call during a write fault. This is because originally filesystems were supposed to convert unwritten extents to written ones using complete_unwritten() callback. Later this was abandoned in favor of using pre-zeroed blocks however the condition whether get_blocks() needs to be called with create == 1 remained. Fix the condition so that filesystems are not forced to zero-out and convert unwritten extents when get_blocks() is called with create == 0 (which introduces unnecessary overhead for read faults and can be problematic as the filesystem may possibly be read-only).

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. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

The major changes are that we've reduced the size of the struct xfs_inode by ~100 bytes (gives an inode cache footprint reduction of >10%), the writepage code now only does a single set of mapping tree lockups so uses less CPU, delayed allocation reservations won't overrun under random write loads anymore, and we added compile time verification for on-disk structure sizes so we find out when a commit or platform/compiler change breaks the on disk structure as early as possible. Change summary: - error propagation for direct IO failures fixes for both XFS and ext4 - new quota interfaces and XFS implementation for iterating all the quota IDs in the filesystem - locking fixes for real-time device extent allocation - reduction of duplicate information in the xfs and vfs inode, saving roughly 100 bytes of memory per cached inode. - buffer flag cleanup - rework of the writepage code to use the generic write clustering mechanisms - several fixes for inode flag based DAX enablement - rework of remount option parsing - compile time verification of on-disk format structure sizes - delayed allocation reservation overrun fixes - lots of little error handling fixes - small memory leak fixes - enable xfsaild freezing again" * tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs: (66 commits) xfs: always set rvalp in xfs_dir2_node_trim_free xfs: ensure committed is initialized in xfs_trans_roll xfs: borrow indirect blocks from freed extent when available xfs: refactor delalloc indlen reservation split into helper xfs: update freeblocks counter after extent deletion xfs: debug mode forced buffered write failure xfs: remove impossible condition xfs: check sizes of XFS on-disk structures at compile time xfs: ioends require logically contiguous file offsets xfs: use named array initializers for log item dumping xfs: fix computation of inode btree maxlevels xfs: reinitialise per-AG structures if geometry changes during recovery xfs: remove xfs_trans_get_block_res xfs: fix up inode32/64 (re)mount handling xfs: fix format specifier , should be %llx and not %llu xfs: sanitize remount options xfs: convert mount option parsing to tokens xfs: fix two memory leaks in xfs_attr_list.c error paths xfs: XFS_DIFLAG2_DAX limited by PAGE_SIZE xfs: dynamically switch modes when XFS_DIFLAG2_DAX is set/cleared ...

The tracking of dirty pages is done via the radix tree in struct address_space. This radix tree is already used by the page writeback infrastructure for tracking dirty pages associated with an open file, and it already has support for exceptional (non struct page*) entries. We build upon these features to add exceptional entries to the radix tree for DAX dirty PMD or PTE pages at fault time.

These 4k zero pages need to be unmapped from the VMAs and removed from the struct address_space radix tree before the real DAX PMD entry can be inserted. For PTE faults this same use case also exists and is handled by a combination of unmap_mapping_range() to unmap the VMAs and delete_from_page_cache() to remove the page from the address_space radix tree. For PMD faults we do have a call to unmap_mapping_range() (protected by a buffer_new() check), but nothing clears out the radix tree entry. The buffer_new() check is also incorrect as the current ext4 and XFS filesystem code will never return a buffer_head with BH_New set, even when allocating new blocks over a hole. Instead the filesystem will zero the blocks manually and return a buffer_head with only BH_Mapped set. Fix this situation by removing the buffer_new() check and adding a call to truncate_inode_pages_range() to clear out the radix tree entries before we insert the DAX PMD.

Instead, initialize bh.b_bdev before passing bh into get_block(). It is possible that the filesystem's get_block() will update bh.b_bdev, and this is fine - we just want to initialize bh.b_bdev to something reasonable so that the calls to __dax_dbg() work and print something useful.

Where "device memory" is a set of pfns that are not part of the kernel's linear mapping by default, but are accessed via the same memory controller as ram. The motivation for this new type is large capacity persistent memory that needs struct page entries in the 'memmap' to support 3rd party DMA (i.e. O_DIRECT I/O with a persistent memory source/target). However, we also need it in support of maintaining a list of mapped inodes which need to be unmapped at driver teardown or freeze_bdev() time.

* pmem, dax: clean up clear_pmem()Dan Williams2016-01-161-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To date, we have implemented two I/O usage models for persistent memory, PMEM (a persistent "ram disk") and DAX (mmap persistent memory into userspace). This series adds a third, DAX-GUP, that allows DAX mappings to be the target of direct-i/o. It allows userspace to coordinate DMA/RDMA from/to persistent memory. The implementation leverages the ZONE_DEVICE mm-zone that went into 4.3-rc1 (also discussed at kernel summit) to flag pages that are owned and dynamically mapped by a device driver. The pmem driver, after mapping a persistent memory range into the system memmap via devm_memremap_pages(), arranges for DAX to distinguish pfn-only versus page-backed pmem-pfns via flags in the new pfn_t type. The DAX code, upon seeing a PFN_DEV+PFN_MAP flagged pfn, flags the resulting pte(s) inserted into the process page tables with a new _PAGE_DEVMAP flag. Later, when get_user_pages() is walking ptes it keys off _PAGE_DEVMAP to pin the device hosting the page range active. Finally, get_page() and put_page() are modified to take references against the device driver established page mapping. Finally, this need for "struct page" for persistent memory requires memory capacity to store the memmap array. Given the memmap array for a large pool of persistent may exhaust available DRAM introduce a mechanism to allocate the memmap from persistent memory. The new "struct vmem_altmap *" parameter to devm_memremap_pages() enables arch_add_memory() to use reserved pmem capacity rather than the page allocator. This patch (of 25): Both __dax_pmd_fault, and clear_pmem() were taking special steps to clear memory a page at a time to take advantage of non-temporal clear_page() implementations. However, x86_64 does not use non-temporal instructions for clear_page(), and arch_clear_pmem() was always incurring the cost of __arch_wb_cache_pmem(). Clean up the assumption that doing clear_pmem() a page at a time is more performant.
