2015-03-19fuse: explicitly set /dev/fuse file's private_dataTom Van Braeckel
The misc subsystem (which is used for /dev/fuse) initializes private_data to point to the misc device when a driver has registered a custom open file operation, and initializes it to NULL when a custom open file operation has *not* been provided. This subtle quirk is confusing, to the point where kernel code registers *empty* file open operations to have private_data point to the misc device structure. And it leads to bugs, where the addition or removal of a custom open file operation surprisingly changes the initial contents of a file's private_data structure. So to simplify things in the misc subsystem, a patch [1] has been proposed to *always* set the private_data to point to the misc device, instead of only doing this when a custom open file operation has been registered. But before this patch can be applied we need to modify drivers that make the assumption that a misc device file's private_data is initialized to NULL because they didn't register a custom open file operation, so they don't rely on this assumption anymore. FUSE uses private_data to store the fuse_conn and errors out if this is not initialized to NULL at mount time. Hence, we now set a file's private_data to NULL explicitly, to be independent of whatever value the misc subsystem initializes it to by default.

2015-03-13fs: split generic and aio kiocbChristoph Hellwig
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").

2015-02-22VFS: (Scripted) Convert S_ISLNK/DIR/REG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_*(dentry)David Howells
Convert the following where appropriate: (1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry). (2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry). (3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with a ->d_automount op. In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer). Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the type of the lower dentry. However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem. There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes. The following perl+coccinelle script was used: use strict; my @callers; open($fd, 'git grep -l \'S_IS[A-Z].*->d_inode\' |') || die "Can't grep for S_ISDIR and co. callers"; @callers = <$fd>; close($fd); unless (@callers) { print "No matches\n"; exit(0); } my @cocci = ( '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISLNK(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_symlink(E)', '', '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISDIR(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_dir(E)', '', '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISREG(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_reg(E)' ); my $coccifile = "tmp.sp.cocci"; open($fd, ">$coccifile") || die $coccifile; print($fd "$_\n") || die $coccifile foreach (@cocci); close($fd); foreach my $file (@callers) { chomp $file; print "Processing ", $file, "\n"; system("spatch", "--sp-file", $coccifile, $file, "--in-place", "--no-show-diff") == 0 || die "spatch failed"; } [AV: overlayfs parts skipped] Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-01-06fuse: fix LOOKUP vs INIT compat handlingMiklos Szeredi
Analysis from Marc: "Commit 7078187a795f ("fuse: introduce fuse_simple_request() helper") from the above pull request triggers some EIO errors for me in some tests that rely on fuse Looking at the code changes and a bit of debugging info I think there's a general problem here that fuse_get_req checks and possibly waits for fc->initialized, and this was always called first. But this commit changes the ordering and in many places fc->minor is now possibly used before fuse_get_req, and we can't be sure that fc has been initialized. In my case fuse_lookup_init sets req->out.args[0].size to the wrong size because fc->minor at that point is still 0, leading to the EIO error." Fix by moving the compat adjustments into fuse_simple_request() to after fuse_get_req(). This is also more readable than the original, since now compatibility is handled in a single function instead of cluttering each operation.

2014-12-12fuse: hold inode instead of path after releaseMiklos Szeredi
path_put() in release could trigger a DESTROY request in fuseblk. The possible deadlock was worked around by doing the path_put() with schedule_work().

2014-12-12fuse: flush requests on umountMiklos Szeredi
Use fuse_abort_conn() instead of fuse_conn_kill() in fuse_put_super(). This flushes and aborts requests still on any queues. But since we've already reset fc->connected, those requests would not be useful anyway and would be flushed when the fuse device is closed. Next patches will rely on requests being flushed before the superblock is destroyed. Use fuse_abort_conn() in cuse_process_init_reply() too, since it makes no difference there, and we can get rid of fuse_conn_kill(). Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

2014-09-27fuse: honour max_read and max_write in direct_io modeMiklos Szeredi
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.

Gluster is returning -ESTALE. The ESTALE propagates back to namei.c:filename_lookup() where lookup is re-attempted with LOOKUP_REVAL. The right behavior now, would be for FUSE to ignore the entry-timeout and and do the up-call revalidation. Instead FUSE is ignoring LOOKUP_REVAL, succeeding the revalidation (because entry-timeout has not passed), and open() is again retried on the old file handle and finally the ESTALE is going back to the application. Fix: if revalidation is happening with LOOKUP_REVAL, then ignore entry-timeout and always do the up-call.

2014-06-04mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where ↵Mel Gorman
possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.

cold is a bool, make it one. Make the likely case the "if" part of the block instead of the else as according to the optimisation manual this is preferred.

2014-06-02locks: ensure that fl_owner is always initialized properly in flock and ↵Jeff Layton
lease codepaths Currently, the fl_owner isn't set for flock locks. Some filesystems use byte-range locks to simulate flock locks and there is a common idiom in those that does: fl->fl_owner = (fl_owner_t)filp; fl->fl_start = 0; fl->fl_end = OFFSET_MAX; Since flock locks are generally "owned" by the open file description, move this into the common flock lock setup code. The fl_start and fl_end fields are already set appropriately, so remove the unneeded setting of that in flock ops in those filesystems as well. Finally, the lease code also sets the fl_owner as if they were owned by the process and not the open file description. This is incorrect as leases have the same ownership semantics as flock locks. Set them the same way. The lease code doesn't actually use the fl_owner value for anything, so this is more for consistency's sake than a bugfix.

2014-05-06bio_vec-backed iov_iterAl Viro
New variant of iov_iter - ITER_BVEC in iter->type, backed with bio_vec array instead of iovec one. Primitives taught to deal with such beasts, __swap_write() switched to using that kind of iov_iter. Note that bio_vec is just a <page, offset, length> triple - there's nothing block-specific about it. I've left the definition where it was, but took it from under ifdef CONFIG_BLOCK. Next target: ->splice_write()... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Now It Can Be Done(tm) - we don't need to do iov_shorten() in generic_file_direct_write() anymore, now that all ->direct_IO() instances are converted to proper iov_iter methods and honour iter->count and iter->iov_offset properly. Get rid of count/ocount arguments of generic_file_direct_write(), while we are at it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
