git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs
Pull xfs updates from Dave Chinner:
"There's quite a lot in this request, and there's some cross-over with
ext4, dax and quota code due to the nature of the changes being made.
As for the rest of the XFS changes, there are lots of little things
all over the place, which add up to a lot of changes in the end.
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"

This way we can pass back errors to the file system, and allow for
cleanup required for all direct I/O invocations.
Also allow the ->end_io handlers to return errors on their own, so that
I/O completion errors can be passed on to the callers.

eof"
Sure, it's better to bail out of past-the-eof read and return 0 than return
a bogus negative value on such. Only we'd better make sure we are bailing out
with 0 and not -ENOMEM...

Assume a filesystem with 4KB blocks. When a file has size 1000 bytes and
we issue direct IO read at offset 1024, blockdev_direct_IO() reads the
tail of the last block and the logic for handling short DIO reads in
dio_complete() results in a return value -24 (1000 - 1024) which
obviously confuses userspace.
Fix the problem by bailing out early once we sample i_size and can
reliably check that direct IO read starts beyond i_size.

Pull block IO poll support from Jens Axboe:
"Various groups have been doing experimentation around IO polling for
(really) fast devices. The code has been reviewed and has been
sitting on the side for a few releases, but this is now good enough
for coordinated benchmarking and further experimentation.
Currently O_DIRECT sync read/write are supported. A framework is in
the works that allows scalable stats tracking so we can auto-tune
this. And we'll add libaio support as well soon. Fow now, it's an
opt-in feature for test purposes"
* 'for-4.4/io-poll' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
direct-io: be sure to assign dio->bio_bdev for both paths
directio: add block polling support
NVMe: add blk polling support
block: add block polling support
blk-mq: return tag/queue combo in the make_request_fn handlers
block: change ->make_request_fn() and users to return a queue cookie
|
|
btrfs sets ->submit_io(), and we failed to set the block dev for
that path. That resulted in a potential NULL dereference when
we later wait for IO in dio_await_one().

__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep. Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep. The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake. As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags. This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

When direct read IO is submitted from kernel, it is often
unnecessary to dirty pages, for example of loop, dirtying pages
have been considered in the upper filesystem(over loop) side
already, and they don't need to be dirtied again.
So this patch doesn't dirtying pages for ITER_BVEC/ITER_KVEC
direct read, and loop should be the 1st case to use ITER_BVEC/ITER_KVEC
for direct read I/O.
The patch is based on previous Dave's patch.

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

do_blockdev_direct_IO() increments and decrements the inode
->i_dio_count for each IO operation. It does this to protect against
truncate of a file. Block devices don't need this sort of protection.
For a capable multiqueue setup, this atomic int is the only shared
state between applications accessing the device for O_DIRECT, and it
presents a scaling wall for that. In my testing, as much as 30% of
system time is spent incrementing and decrementing this value. A mixed
read/write workload improved from ~2.5M IOPS to ~9.6M IOPS, with
better latencies too. Before:

Most callers in the kernel want to perform synchronous file I/O, but
still have to bloat the stack with a full struct kiocb. Split out
the parts needed in filesystem code from those in the aio code, and
only allocate those needed to pass down argument on the stack. The
aio code embedds the generic iocb in the one it allocates and can
easily get back to it by using container_of.
Also add a ->ki_complete method to struct kiocb, this is used to call
into the aio code and thus removes the dependency on aio for filesystems
impementing asynchronous operations. It will also allow other callers
to substitute their own completion callback.
We also add a new ->ki_flags field to work around the nasty layering
violation recently introduced in commit 5e33f6 ("usb: gadget: ffs: add
eventfd notification about ffs events").

The third argument of fuse_get_user_pages() "nbytesp" refers to the number of
bytes a caller asked to pack into fuse request. This value may be lesser
than capacity of fuse request or iov_iter. So fuse_get_user_pages() must
ensure that *nbytesp won't grow.
Now, when helper iov_iter_get_pages() performs all hard work of extracting
pages from iov_iter, it can be done by passing properly calculated
"maxsize" to the helper.
The other caller of iov_iter_get_pages() (dio_refill_pages()) doesn't need
this capability, so pass LONG_MAX as the maxsize argument here.

Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user
context using a workqueue. This replaces opencoded and less efficient
code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO)
and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO.
The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires
a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the
direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating
with the filesystems.
Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these
completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm
not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global
workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.

Currently, dio_send_cur_page() submits bio before current page and cached
sdio->cur_page is added to the bio if sdio->boundary is set. This is
actually wrong because sdio->boundary means the current buffer is the last
one before metadata needs to be read. So we should rather submit the bio
after the current page is added to it.

When we read/write a file sequentially, we will read/write not only the
data blocks but also the indirect blocks that may not be physically
adjacent to the data blocks. So filesystems set the BH_Boundary flag to
submit the previous I/O before reading/writing an indirect block.
However the generic direct IO code mishandles buffer_boundary(), setting
sdio->boundary before each submit_page_section() call which results in
sending only one page bios as underlying code thinks this page is the last
in the contiguous extent. So fix the problem by setting sdio->boundary
only if the current page is really the last one in the mapped extent.
With this patch and "direct-io: submit bio after boundary buffer is added
to it" I've measured about 10% throughput improvement of direct IO reads
on ext3 with SATA harddrive (from 90 MB/s to 100 MB/s). With ramdisk, the
improvement was about 3-fold (from 350 MB/s to 1.2 GB/s). For other
filesystems (such as ext4), the improvements won't be as visible because
the frequency of BH_Boundary flag being set is much smaller.

After we introduce the bvec iter, it'll no longer be possible to modify
the biovec through bio_for_each_segment_all() - it doesn't increment a
pointer to the current bvec, you pass in a struct bio_vec (not a
pointer) which is updated with what the current biovec would be (taking
into account bi_bvec_done and bi_size).
So because of that it's more worthwhile to be consistent about
bio_for_each_segment()/bio_for_each_segment_all() usage.

Running AIO is pinning inode in memory using file reference. Once AIO
is completed using aio_complete(), file reference is put and inode can
be freed from memory. So we have to be sure that calling aio_complete()
is the last thing we do with the inode.

Since directio can work on a raw block device, and the block size of the
device can change under it, we need to do the same thing that
fs/buffer.c now does: read the block size a single time, using
ACCESS_ONCE().
Reading it multiple times can get different results, which will then
confuse the code because it actually encodes the i_blksize in
relationship to the underlying logical blocksize.

Move unplugging for direct I/O from around ->direct_IO() down to
do_blockdev_direct_IO(). This implicitly adds plugging for direct

READ is 0, so the result of the bit-and operation is 0. Rewrite with == as
done elsewhere in the same file.

Use the same mechanism as the block devices are using, but move the
helper functions from fs/direct-io.c into fs/inode.c to remove the
dependency on CONFIG_BLOCK.

With kernel 3.1, Christoph removed i_alloc_sem and replaced it with
calls (namely inode_dio_wait() and inode_dio_done()) which are
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() thus they cannot be used by non-GPL file systems and
further inode_dio_wait() was pushed from notify_change() into the file
system ->setattr() method but no non-GPL file system can make this call.
That means non-GPL file systems cannot exist any more unless they do not
use any VFS functionality related to reading/writing as far as I can
tell or at least as long as they want to implement direct i/o.
Both Linus and Al (and others) have said on LKML that this breakage of
the VFS API should not have happened and that the change was simply
missed as it was not documented in the change logs of the patches that
did those changes.
This patch changes the two function exports in question to be
EXPORT_SYMBOL() thus restoring the VFS API as it used to be - accessible
for all modules.
Christoph, who introduced the two functions and exported them GPL-only
is CC-ed on this patch to give him the opportunity to object to the
symbols being changed in this manner if he did indeed intend them to be
GPL-only and does not want them to become available to all modules.

Some investigation of a transaction processing workload showed that a
major consumer of cycles in __blockdev_direct_IO is the cache miss while
accessing the block size. This is because it has to walk the chain from
block_dev to gendisk to queue.
The block size is needed early on to check alignment and sizes. It's only
done if the check for the inode block size fails. But the costly block
device state is unconditionally fetched.
- Reorganize the code to only fetch block dev state when actually
needed.
Then do a prefetch on the block dev early on in the direct IO path. This
is worth it, because there is substantial code run before we actually
touch the block dev now.
- I also added some unlikelies to make it clear the compiler that block
device fetch code is not normally executed.
This gave a small, but measurable improvement on a large database
benchmark (about 0.3%)

In get_more_blocks(), we use dio_count to calcuate fs_count and do some
tricky things to increase fs_count if dio_count isn't aligned. But
actually it still has some corner cases that can't be coverd. See the
following example:
dio_write foo -s 1024 -w 4096
(direct write 4096 bytes at offset 1024). The same goes if the offset
isn't aligned to fs_blocksize.
In this case, the old calculation counts fs_count to be 1, but actually we
will write into 2 different blocks (if fs_blocksize=4096). The old code
just works, since it will call get_block twice (and may have to allocate
and create extents twice for filesystems like ext4). So we'd better call
get_block just once with the proper fs_count.
