proc/pid/pagemap: correctly report non-present ptes and holes between vmas
|
|
Reset the current pagemap-entry if the current pte isn't present, or if
current vma is over. Otherwise pagemap reports last entry again and
again.
Non-present pte reporting was broken in commit 092b50bacd1c ("pagemap:
introduce data structure for pagemap entry")
Reporting for holes was broken in commit 5aaabe831eb5 ("pagemap: avoid
splitting thp when reading /proc/pid/pagemap")

Admittedly this is something that the compiler should be able to just do
for us, but gcc just isn't that smart. And trying to use a structure
initializer (which would get us the right semantics) ends up resulting
in gcc allocating stack space for _two_ 'struct stat', and then copying
one into the other.
So do it by hand - just have a per-architecture macro that initializes
the padding fields. And if the architecture doesn't provide one, fall
back to the old behavior of just doing the whole memset() first.

"The big ones here are a memory leak we introduced in rc1, and a

transid we expected. This happens for corrupt blocks, or out of date

It also fixes up the ioctl definition for our ioctl to resolve logical
inode numbers. The __u32 was a merging error and doesn't match what
we ship in the progs."

btrfs: Fix mismatching struct members in ioctl.h
Btrfs: fix page leak when allocing extent buffers
Btrfs: Add properly locking around add_root_to_dirty_list
|
|
verify_parent_transid needs to lock the extent range to make
sure no IO is underway, and so it can safely clear the
uptodate bits if our checks fail.
But, a few callers are using it with spinlocks held. Most
of the time, the generation numbers are going to match, and
we don't want to switch to a blocking lock just for the error
case. This adds an atomic flag to verify_parent_transid,
and changes it to return EAGAIN if it needs to block to
properly verifiy things.

The calling conventions for __d_lookup_rcu() and dentry_cmp() are
annoying in different ways, and there is actually one single underlying
reason for both of the annoyances.
The fundamental reason is that we do the returned dentry sequence number
check inside __d_lookup_rcu() instead of doing it in the caller. This
results in two annoyances:
- __d_lookup_rcu() now not only needs to return the dentry and the
sequence number that goes along with the lookup, it also needs to
return the inode pointer that was validated by that sequence number
check.
- and because we did the sequence number check early (to validate the
name pointer and length) we also couldn't just pass the dentry itself
to dentry_cmp(), we had to pass the counted string that contained the
name.
So that sequence number decision caused two separate ugly calling
conventions.
Both of these problems would be solved if we just did the sequence
number check in the caller instead. There's only one caller, and that
caller already has to do the sequence number check for the parent
anyway, so just do that.
That allows us to stop returning the dentry->d_inode in that in-out
argument (pointer-to-pointer-to-inode), so we can make the inode
argument just a regular input inode pointer. The caller can just load
the inode from dentry->d_inode, and then do the sequence number check
after that to make sure that it's synchronized with the name we looked
up.
And it allows us to just pass in the dentry to dentry_cmp(), which is
what all the callers really wanted. Sure, dentry_cmp() has to be a bit
careful about the dentry (which is not stable during RCU lookup), but
that's actually very simple.
And now that dentry_cmp() can clearly see that the first string argument
is a dentry, we can use the direct word access for that, instead of the
careful unaligned zero-padding. The dentry name is always properly
aligned, since it is a single path component that is either embedded
into the dentry itself, or was allocated with kmalloc() (see __d_alloc).
Finally, this also uninlines the nasty slow-case for dentry comparisons:
that one *does* need to do a sequence number check, since it will call
in to the low-level filesystems, and we want to give those a stable
inode pointer and path component length/start arguments. Doing an extra
sequence check for that slow case is not a problem, though.

This cleans up the mode setting code when creating inodes. The
SGID bit was being reset by setattr_copy() when the user creating a

a subdirectory. GFS2's behaviour now matches that of the other ACL

It turns out that there are more cases than CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC that
can have holes in the kernel address space: it seems to happen easily
with Xen, and it looks like the AMD gart64 code will also punch holes
dynamically.
Actually hitting that case is still very unlikely, so just do the
access, and take an exception and fix it up for the very unlikely case
of it being a page-crosser with no next page.
And hey, this abstraction might even help other architectures that have
other issues with unaligned word accesses than the possible missing next
page. IOW, this could do the byte order magic too.
Peter Anvin fixed a thinko in the shifting for the exception case.

When revalidating a dentry, if the inode wasn't known to be a dfs
entry when the dentry was instantiated, such as when created via
->readdir(), the DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT flag needs to be set on the
dentry in ->d_revalidate().
The false return from cifs_d_revalidate(), due to the inode now
being marked with the S_AUTOMOUNT flag, might not invalidate the
dentry if there is a concurrent unlazy path walk. This is because
the dentry reference count will be at least 2 in this case causing
d_invalidate() to return EBUSY. So the asumption that the dentry
will be discarded then correctly instantiated via ->lookup() might
not hold.

The "nodir" mode (statically assign master nodes instead
of using the resource directory) has always been highly
experimental, and never seriously used. This commit
fixes a number of problems, making nodir much more usable.
- Major change to recovery: recover all locks and restart
all in-progress operations after recovery. In some
cases it's not possible to know which in-progess locks
to recover, so recover all. (Most require recovery
in nodir mode anyway since rehashing changes most
master nodes.)
- Change the way nodir mode is enabled, from a command
line mount arg passed through gfs2, into a sysfs
file managed by dlm_controld, consistent with the
other config settings.
- Allow recovering MSTCPY locks on an rsb that has not
yet been turned into a master copy.
- Ignore RCOM_LOCK and RCOM_LOCK_REPLY recovery messages
from a previous, aborted recovery cycle. Base this
on the local recovery status not being in the state
where any nodes should be sending LOCK messages for the
current recovery cycle.
- Hold rsb lock around dlm_purge_mstcpy_locks() because it
may run concurrently with dlm_recover_master_copy().
- Maintain highbast on process-copy lkb's (in addition to
the master as is usual), because the lkb can switch
back and forth between being a master and being a
process copy as the master node changes in recovery.
- When recovering MSTCPY locks, flag rsb's that have
non-empty convert or waiting queues for granting
at the end of recovery. (Rename flag from LOCKS_PURGED
to RECOVER_GRANT and similar for the recovery function,
because it's not only resources with purged locks
that need grant a grant attempt.)
- Replace a couple of unnecessary assertion panics with
error messages.

While testing, I've found that even when we are able to negotiate a
much larger rsize with the server, on-the-wire reads often end up being
capped at 128k because of ra_pages being capped at that level.
Lifting this restriction gave almost a twofold increase in sequential
read performance on my craptactular KVM test rig with a 1M rsize.
I think this is safe since the actual ra_pages that the VM requests
is run through max_sane_readahead() prior to submitting the I/O. Under
memory pressure we should end up with large readahead requests being
suppressed anyway.

The autofs packet size has had a very unfortunate size problem on x86:
because the alignment of 'u64' differs in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, and
because the packet data was not 8-byte aligned, the size of the autofsv5
packet structure differed between 32-bit and 64-bit modes despite
looking otherwise identical (300 vs 304 bytes respectively).
We first fixed that up by making the 64-bit compat mode know about this
problem in commit a32744d4abae ("autofs: work around unhappy compat
problem on x86-64"), and that made a 32-bit 'systemd' work happily on a
64-bit kernel because everything then worked the same way as on a 32-bit
kernel.
But it turned out that 'automount' had actually known and worked around
this problem in user space, so fixing the kernel to do the proper 32-bit
compatibility handling actually *broke* 32-bit automount on a 64-bit
kernel, because it knew that the packet sizes were wrong and expected
those incorrect sizes.
As a result, we ended up reverting that compatibility mode fix, and
thus breaking systemd again, in commit fcbf94b9dedd.
With both automount and systemd doing a single read() system call, and
verifying that they get *exactly* the size they expect but using
different sizes, it seemed that fixing one of them inevitably seemed to
break the other. At one point, a patch I seriously considered applying
from Michael Tokarev did a "strcmp()" to see if it was automount that
was doing the operation. Ugly, ugly.
However, a prettier solution exists now thanks to the packetized pipe
mode. By marking the communication pipe as being packetized (by simply
setting the O_DIRECT flag), we can always just write the bigger packet
size, and if user-space does a smaller read, it will just get that
partial end result and the extra alignment padding will simply be thrown
away.
This makes both automount and systemd happy, since they now get the size
they asked for, and the kernel side of autofs simply no longer needs to
care - it could pad out the packet arbitrarily.
Of course, if there is some *other* user of autofs (please, please,
please tell me it ain't so - and we haven't heard of any) that tries to
read the packets with multiple writes, that other user will now be
broken - the whole point of the packetized mode is that one system call
gets exactly one packet, and you cannot read a packet in pieces.

The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about
individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that
as a special packetized mode.
When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by
Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous
writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe
buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn
will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw
away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer).
End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that
the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a
packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at
a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is
sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway),
and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of
the packet.
NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and
writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will
currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that
happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF).
Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to
explicitly support bigger packets some day.
The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface,
allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes
(which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user
space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will
fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

This removes a number of silly games around strncpy_from_user() in
do_getname(), and removes that helper function entirely. We instead
make getname_flags() just use strncpy_from_user() properly directly.
Removing the wrapper function simplifies things noticeably, mostly
because we no longer play the unnecessary games with segments (x86
strncpy_from_user() no longer needs the hack), but also because the
empty path handling is just much more obvious. The return value of
"strncpy_to_user()" is much more obvious than checking an odd error
return case from do_getname().
[ non-x86 architectures were notified of this change several weeks ago,
since it is possible that they have copied the old broken x86
strncpy_from_user. But nobody reacted, so .. See
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-arch/msg17313.html

Pull btrfs fixes from Chris Mason:
"This has our collection of bug fixes. I missed the last rc because I
thought our patches were making NFS crash during my xfs test runs.
Turns out it was an NFS client bug fixed by someone else while I tried
to bisect it.
All of these fixes are small, but some are fairly high impact. The
biggest are fixes for our mount -o remount handling, a deadlock due to
GFP_KERNEL allocations in readdir, and a RAID10 error handling bug.
This was tested against both 3.3 and Linus' master as of this morning."

This reverts commit a32744d4abae24572eff7269bc17895c41bd0085.
While that commit was technically the right thing to do, and made the
x86-64 compat mode work identically to native 32-bit mode (and thus
fixing the problem with a 32-bit systemd install on a 64-bit kernel), it
turns out that the automount binaries had workarounds for this compat
problem.
Now, the workarounds are disgusting: doing an "uname()" to find out the
architecture of the kernel, and then comparing it for the 64-bit cases
and fixing up the size of the read() in automount for those. And they
were confused: it's not actually a generic 64-bit issue at all, it's
very much tied to just x86-64, which has different alignment for an
'u64' in 64-bit mode than in 32-bit mode.
But the end result is that fixing the compat layer actually breaks the
case of a 32-bit automount on a x86-64 kernel.
There are various approaches to fix this (including just doing a
"strcmp()" on current->comm and comparing it to "automount"), but I
think that I will do the one that teaches pipes about a special "packet
mode", which will allow user space to not have to care too deeply about
the padding at the end of the autofs packet.
That change will make the compat workaround unnecessary, so let's revert
it first, and get automount working again in compat mode. The
packetized pipes will then fix autofs for systemd.

We're spending huge amounts of time on lock contention during
end_io processing because we unconditionally assume we are overwriting
an existing extent in the file for each IO.
This checks to see if we are outside i_size, and if so, it uses a
less expensive readonly search of the btree to look for existing
extents.

Btrfs has an optimization where it will preallocate dentries during
readdir to fill in enough information to open the inode without an extra
lookup.
But, we're calling d_alloc, which is doing GFP_KERNEL allocations, and
that leads to deadlocks because our readdir code has tree locks held.
For now, disable this optimization. We'll fix the gfp mask in the next
merge window.
