| * VFS: don't keep disconnected dentries on d_anonNeilBrown2017-12-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original purpose of the per-superblock d_anon list was to keep disconnected dentries in the cache between consecutive requests to the NFS server. Dentries can be disconnected if a client holds a file open and repeatedly performs IO on it, and if the server drops the dentry, whether due to memory pressure, server restart, or "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches". This purpose was thwarted by commit 75a6f82a0d10 ("freeing unlinked file indefinitely delayed") which caused disconnected dentries to be freed as soon as their refcount reached zero. This means that, when a dentry being used by nfsd gets disconnected, a new one needs to be allocated for every request (unless requests overlap). As the dentry has no name, no parent, and no children, there is little of value to cache. As small memory allocations are typically fast (from per-cpu free lists) this likely has little cost. This means that the original purpose of s_anon is no longer relevant: there is no longer any need to keep disconnected dentries on a list so they appear to be hashed. However, s_anon now has a new use. When you mount an NFS filesystem, the dentry stored in s_root is just a placebo. The "real" root dentry is allocated using d_obtain_root() and so it kept on the s_anon list. I don't know the reason for this, but suspect it related to NFSv4 where a mount of "server:/some/path" require NFS to look up the root filehandle on the server, then walk down "/some" and "/path" to get the filehandle to mount. Whatever the reason, NFS depends on the s_anon list and on shrink_dcache_for_umount() pruning all dentries on this list. So we cannot simply remove s_anon. We could just leave the code unchanged, but apart from that being potentially confusing, the (unfair) bit-spin-lock which protects s_anon can become a bottle neck when lots of disconnected dentries are being created. So this patch renames s_anon to s_roots, and stops storing disconnected dentries on the list. Only dentries obtained with d_obtain_root() are now stored on this list. There are many fewer of these (only NFS and NILFS2 use the call, and only during filesystem mount) so contention on the bit-lock will not be a problem. Possibly an alternate solution should be found for NFS and NILFS2, but that would require understanding their needs first.

* | License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Differentiate the MS_* flags passed to mount(2) from the internal flags set in the super_block's s_flags. s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to. In this patch, just the headers are altered and some kernel code where blind automated conversion isn't necessarily correct. Note that this shows up some interesting issues: (1) Some MS_* flags get translated to MNT_* flags (such as MS_NODEV -> MNT_NODEV) without passing this on to the filesystem, but some filesystems set such flags anyway. (2) The ->remount_fs() methods of some filesystems adjust the *flags argument by setting MS_* flags in it, such as MS_NOATIME - but these flags are then scrubbed by do_remount_sb() (only the occupants of MS_RMT_MASK are permitted: MS_RDONLY, MS_SYNCHRONOUS, MS_MANDLOCK, MS_I_VERSION and MS_LAZYTIME) I'm not sure what's the best way to solve all these cases.

A lot of these changes result in subtle user visible differences in kernel behavior. I don't expect anything will care but I will revert/fix things immediately if any regressions show up. From Seth Forshee there is a continuation of the work to make the vfs ready for unpriviled mounts. We had thought the previous changes prevented the creation of files outside of s_user_ns of a filesystem, but it turns we missed the O_CREAT path. Ooops. Pavel Tikhomirov and Oleg Nesterov worked together to fix a long standing bug in the implemenation of PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER where only children that are forked after the prctl are considered and not children forked before the prctl. The only known user of this prctl systemd forks all children after the prctl. So no userspace regressions will occur. Holding earlier forked children to the same rules as later forked children creates a semantic that is sane enough to allow checkpoing of processes that use this feature. There is a long delayed change by Nikolay Borisov to limit inotify instances inside a user namespace. Michael Kerrisk extends the API for files used to maniuplate namespaces with two new trivial ioctls to allow discovery of the hierachy and properties of namespaces. Konstantin Khlebnikov with the help of Al Viro adds code that when a network namespace exits purges it's sysctl entries from the dcache. As in some circumstances this could use a lot of memory. Vivek Goyal fixed a bug with stacked filesystems where the permissions on the wrong inode were being checked. I continue previous work on ptracing across exec. Allowing a file to be setuid across exec while being ptraced if the tracer has enough credentials in the user namespace, and if the process has CAP_SETUID in it's own namespace. Proc files for setuid or otherwise undumpable executables are now owned by the root in the user namespace of their mm. Allowing debugging of setuid applications in containers to work better. A bug I introduced with permission checking and automount is now fixed. The big change is to mark the mounts that the kernel initiates as a result of an automount. This allows the permission checks in sget to be safely suppressed for this kind of mount. As the permission check happened when the original filesystem was mounted. Finally a special case in the mount namespace is removed preventing unbounded chains in the mount hash table, and making the semantics simpler which benefits CRIU. The vfs fix along with related work in ima and evm I believe makes us ready to finish developing and merge fully unprivileged mounts of the fuse filesystem. The cleanups of the mount namespace makes discussing how to fix the worst case complexity of umount.

The automount case is special in that mounting the original filesystem grants permission to mount the sub-filesystems, to any user who happens to stumble across the their mountpoint and satisfies the ordinary filesystem permission checks. Attempting to handle the automount case by using override_creds almost works. It preserves the idea that permission to mount the original filesystem is permission to mount the sub-filesystem. Unfortunately using override_creds messes up the filesystems ordinary permission checks. Solve this by being explicit that a mount is a submount by introducing vfs_submount, and using it where appropriate. vfs_submount uses a new mount internal mount flags MS_SUBMOUNT, to let sget and friends know that a mount is a submount so they can take appropriate action. sget and sget_userns are modified to not perform any permission checks on submounts. follow_automount is modified to stop using override_creds as that has proven problemantic. do_mount is modified to always remove the new MS_SUBMOUNT flag so that we know userspace will never by able to specify it. autofs4 is modified to stop using current_real_cred that was put in there to handle the previous version of submount permission checking. cifs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to vfs_submount. debugfs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to trace_automount by adding a new parameter. To make this change easier a new typedef debugfs_automount_t is introduced to capture the type of the debugfs automount function.

The real world target is fuse but the goal is to update the vfs to allow any filesystem to be supported. This patchset is based on a lot of code review and testing to approach that goal. While looking at what is needed to support the fuse filesystem it became clear that there were things like xattrs for security modules that needed special treatment. That the resolution of those concerns would not be fuse specific. That sorting out these general issues made most sense at the generic level, where the right people could be drawn into the conversation, and the issues could be solved for everyone. At a high level what this patchset does a couple of simple things: - Add a user namespace owner (s_user_ns) to struct super_block. - Teach the vfs to handle filesystem uids and gids not mapping into to kuids and kgids and being reported as INVALID_UID and INVALID_GID in vfs data structures. By assigning a user namespace owner filesystems that are mounted with only user namespace privilege can be detected. This allows security modules and the like to know which mounts may not be trusted. This also allows the set of uids and gids that are communicated to the filesystem to be capped at the set of kuids and kgids that are in the owning user namespace of the filesystem. One of the crazier corner casees this handles is the case of inodes whose i_uid or i_gid are not mapped into the vfs. Most of the code simply doesn't care but it is easy to confuse the inode writeback path so no operation that could cause an inode write-back is permitted for such inodes (aka only reads are allowed). This set of changes starts out by cleaning up the code paths involved in user namespace permirted mounts. Then when things are clean enough adds code that cleanly sets s_user_ns. Then additional restrictions are added that are possible now that the filesystem superblock contains owner information. These changes should not affect anyone in practice, but there are some parts of these restrictions that are changes in behavior. - Andy's restriction on suid executables that does not honor the suid bit when the path is from another mount namespace (think /proc/[pid]/fd/) or when the filesystem was mounted by a less privileged user. - The replacement of the user namespace implicit setting of MNT_NODEV with implicitly setting SB_I_NODEV on the filesystem superblock instead. Using SB_I_NODEV is a stronger form that happens to make this state user invisible. The user visibility can be managed but it caused problems when it was introduced from applications reasonably expecting mount flags to be what they were set to. There is a little bit of work remaining before it is safe to support mounting filesystems with backing store in user namespaces, beyond what is in this set of changes. - Verifying the mounter has permission to read/write the block device during mount. - Teaching the integrity modules IMA and EVM to handle filesystems mounted with only user namespace root and to reduce trust in their security xattrs accordingly. - Capturing the mounters credentials and using that for permission checks in d_automount and the like. (Given that overlayfs already does this, and we need the work in d_automount it make sense to generalize this case). Furthermore there are a few changes that are on the wishlist: - Get all filesystems supporting posix acls using the generic posix acls so that posix_acl_fix_xattr_from_user and posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user may be removed. [Maintainability] - Reducing the permission checks in places such as remount to allow the superblock owner to perform them. - Allowing the superblock owner to chown files with unmapped uids and gids to something that is mapped so the files may be treated normally. I am not considering even obvious relaxations of permission checks until it is clear there are no more corner cases that need to be locked down and handled generically.

In this change this is only used for permission checks of who may mount a filesystem. Ultimately s_user_ns will be used for translating ids and checking capabilities for filesystems mounted from user namespaces. The default policy for setting s_user_ns is implemented in sget(), which arranges for s_user_ns to be set to current_user_ns() and to ensure that the mounter of the filesystem has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in that user_ns. The guts of sget are split out into another function sget_userns(). The function sget_userns calls alloc_super with the specified user namespace or it verifies the existing superblock that was found has the expected user namespace, and fails with EBUSY when it is not. This failing prevents users with the wrong privileges mounting a filesystem. The reason for the split of sget_userns from sget is that in some cases such as mount_ns and kernfs_mount_ns a different policy for permission checking of mounts and setting s_user_ns is necessary, and the existence of sget_userns() allows those policies to be implemented. The helper mount_ns is expected to be used for filesystems such as proc and mqueuefs which present per namespace information. The function mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns instead of sget to ensure the user namespace owner of the namespace whose information is presented by the filesystem is used on the superblock. For sysfs and cgroup the appropriate permission checks are already in place, and kernfs_mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns so that the init_user_ns is the only user namespace used. For the cgroup filesystem cgroup namespace mounts are bind mounts of a subset of the full cgroup filesystem and as such s_user_ns must be the same for all of them as there is only a single superblock. Mounts of sysfs that vary based on the network namespace could in principle change s_user_ns but it keeps the analysis and implementation of kernfs simpler if that is not supported, and at present there appear to be no benefits from supporting a different s_user_ns on any sysfs mount. Getting the details of setting s_user_ns correct has been a long process. Thanks to Pavel Tikhorirorv who spotted a leak in sget_userns. Thanks to Seth Forshee who has kept the work alive.

| * vfs: Pass data, ns, and ns->userns to mount_nsEric W. Biederman2016-06-231-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today what is normally called data (the mount options) is not passed to fill_super through mount_ns. Pass the mount options and the namespace separately to mount_ns so that filesystems such as proc that have mount options, can use mount_ns. Pass the user namespace to mount_ns so that the standard permission check that verifies the mounter has permissions over the namespace can be performed in mount_ns instead of in each filesystems .mount method. Thus removing the duplication between mqueuefs and proc in terms of permission checks. The extra permission check does not currently affect the rpc_pipefs filesystem and the nfsd filesystem as those filesystems do not currently allow unprivileged mounts. Without unpvileged mounts it is guaranteed that the caller has already passed capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) which guarantees extra permission check will pass. Update rpc_pipefs and the nfsd filesystem to ensure that the network namespace reference is always taken in fill_super and always put in kill_sb so that the logic is simpler and so that errors originating inside of fill_super do not cause a network namespace leak.

* | fs/fs-writeback.c: add a new writeback list for syncDave Chinner2016-07-271-0/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | wait_sb_inodes() currently does a walk of all inodes in the filesystem to find dirty one to wait on during sync. This is highly inefficient and wastes a lot of CPU when there are lots of clean cached inodes that we don't need to wait on. To avoid this "all inode" walk, we need to track inodes that are currently under writeback that we need to wait for. We do this by adding inodes to a writeback list on the sb when the mapping is first tagged as having pages under writeback. wait_sb_inodes() can then walk this list of "inodes under IO" and wait specifically just for the inodes that the current sync(2) needs to wait for. Define a couple helpers to add/remove an inode from the writeback list and call them when the overall mapping is tagged for or cleared from writeback. Update wait_sb_inodes() to walk only the inodes under writeback due to the sync. With this change, filesystem sync times are significantly reduced for fs' with largely populated inode caches and otherwise no other work to do. For example, on a 16xcpu 2GHz x86-64 server, 10TB XFS filesystem with a ~10m entry inode cache, sync times are reduced from ~7.3s to less than 0.1s when the filesystem is fully clean.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If cgroup writeback is in use, inodes can be scheduled for asynchronous wb switching. Before 5ff8eaac1636 ("writeback: keep superblock pinned during cgroup writeback association switches"), this could race with umount leading to super_block being destroyed while inodes are pinned for wb switching. 5ff8eaac1636 fixed it by bumping s_active while wb switches are in flight; however, this allowed in-flight wb switches to make umounts asynchronous when the userland expected synchronosity - e.g. fsck immediately following umount may fail because the device is still busy. This patch removes the problematic super_block pinning and instead makes generic_shutdown_super() flush in-flight wb switches. wb switches are now executed on a dedicated isw_wq so that they can be flushed and isw_nr_in_flight keeps track of the number of in-flight wb switches so that flushing can be avoided in most cases. v2: Move cgroup_writeback_umount() further below and add MS_ACTIVE check in inode_switch_wbs() as Jan an Al suggested.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When competing sync(2) calls walk the same filesystem, they need to walk the list of inodes on the superblock to find all the inodes that we need to wait for IO completion on. However, when multiple wait_sb_inodes() calls do this at the same time, they contend on the the inode_sb_list_lock and the contention causes system wide slowdowns. In effect, concurrent sync(2) calls can take longer and burn more CPU than if they were serialised. Stop the worst of the contention by adding a per-sb mutex to wrap around wait_sb_inodes() so that we only execute one sync(2) IO completion walk per superblock superblock at a time and hence avoid contention being triggered by concurrent sync(2) calls.

This patch doesn't remove sb_writers->wait_unfrozen yet, we keep it for get_super_thawed(). We will probably remove it later. This change tries to address the following problems: - Firstly, __sb_start_write() looks simply buggy. It does __sb_end_write() if it sees ->frozen, but if it migrates to another CPU before percpu_counter_dec(), sb_wait_write() can wrongly succeed if there is another task which holds the same "semaphore": sb_wait_write() can miss the result of the previous percpu_counter_inc() but see the result of this percpu_counter_dec(). - As Dave Hansen reports, it is suboptimal. The trivial microbenchmark that writes to a tmpfs file in a loop runs 12% faster if we change this code to rely on RCU and kill the memory barriers. - This code doesn't look simple. It would be better to rely on the generic locking code. According to Dave, this change adds the same performance improvement. Note: with this change both freeze_super() and thaw_super() will do synchronize_sched_expedited() 3 times. This is just ugly. But: - This will be "fixed" by the rcu_sync changes we are going to merge. After that freeze_super()->percpu_down_write() will use synchronize_sched(), and thaw_super() won't use synchronize() at all. This doesn't need any changes in fs/super.c. - Once we merge rcu_sync changes, we can also change super.c so that all wb_write->rw_sem's will share the single ->rss in struct sb_writes, then freeze_super() will need only one synchronize_sched().

Another thread can do this, so there is another reason for rwsem_release(). Plus the comment should explain why we have to fool lockdep.

* | fix the broken lockdep logic in __sb_start_write()Oleg Nesterov2015-08-151-33/+40
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. wait_event(frozen < level) without rwsem_acquire_read() is just wrong from lockdep perspective. If we are going to deadlock because the caller is buggy, lockdep can't detect this problem. 2. __sb_start_write() can race with thaw_super() + freeze_super(), and after "goto retry" the 2nd acquire_freeze_lock() is wrong. 3. The "tell lockdep we are doing trylock" hack doesn't look nice. I think this is correct, but this logic should be more explicit. Yes, the recursive read_lock() is fine if we hold the lock on a higher level. But we do not need to fool lockdep. If we can not deadlock in this case then try-lock must not fail and we can use use wait == F throughout this code. Note: as Dave Chinner explains, the "trylock" hack and the fat comment can be probably removed. But this needs a separate change and it will be trivial: just kill __sb_start_write() and rename do_sb_start_write() back to __sb_start_write().

* cleancache: remove limit on the number of cleancache enabled filesystemsVladimir Davydov2015-04-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The limit equals 32 and is imposed by the number of entries in the fs_poolid_map and shared_fs_poolid_map. Nowadays it is insufficient, because with containers on board a Linux host can have hundreds of active fs mounts. These maps were introduced by commit 49a9ab815acb8 ("mm: cleancache: lazy initialization to allow tmem backends to build/run as modules") in order to allow compiling cleancache drivers as modules. Real pool ids are stored in these maps while super_block->cleancache_poolid points to an entry in the map, so that on cleancache registration we can walk over all (if there are <= 32 of them, of course) cleancache-enabled super blocks and assign real pool ids. Actually, there is absolutely no need in these maps, because we can iterate over all super blocks immediately using iterate_supers. This is not racy, because cleancache_init_ops is called from mount_fs with super_block->s_umount held for writing, while iterate_supers takes this semaphore for reading, so if we call iterate_supers after setting cleancache_ops, all super blocks that had been created before cleancache_register_ops was called will be assigned pool ids by the action function of iterate_supers while all newer super blocks will receive it in cleancache_init_fs. This patch therefore removes the maps and hence the artificial limit on the number of cleancache enabled filesystems.

* trylock_super(): replacement for grab_super_passive()Konstantin Khlebnikov2015-02-221-22/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've noticed significant locking contention in memory reclaimer around sb_lock inside grab_super_passive(). Grab_super_passive() is called from two places: in icache/dcache shrinkers (function super_cache_scan) and from writeback (function __writeback_inodes_wb). Both are required for progress in memory allocator. Grab_super_passive() acquires sb_lock to increment sb->s_count and check sb->s_instances. It seems sb->s_umount locked for read is enough here: super-block deactivation always runs under sb->s_umount locked for write. Protecting super-block itself isn't a problem: in super_cache_scan() sb is protected by shrinker_rwsem: it cannot be freed if its slab shrinkers are still active. Inside writeback super-block comes from inode from bdi writeback list under wb->list_lock. This patch removes locking sb_lock and checks s_instances under s_umount: generic_shutdown_super() unlinks it under sb->s_umount locked for write. New variant is called trylock_super() and since it only locks semaphore, callers must call up_read(&sb->s_umount) instead of drop_super(sb) when they're done.
