If two programs simultaneously try to write to the same part of a file
via direct IO and buffered IO, there's a chance that the post-diowrite
pagecache invalidation will fail on the dirty page. When this happens,
the dio write succeeded, which means that the page cache is no longer
coherent with the disk!
Programs are not supposed to mix IO types and this is a clear case of
data corruption, so store an EIO which will be reflected to userspace
during the next fsync. Replace the WARN_ON with a ratelimited pr_crit
so that the developers have /some/ kind of breadcrumb to track down the
offending program(s) and file(s) involved.

(me).
- Fix for missing wakeup on writeback timer adjustments (Yafang
Shao).
- Fix laptop mode on blk-mq (me).
- {mq,name} tupple lookup for IO schedulers, allowing us to have
alias names. This means you can use 'deadline' on both !mq and on
mq (where it's called mq-deadline). (me).
- blktrace race fix, oopsing on sg load (me).
- blk-mq optimizations (me).

- NBD fixes (Josef).
- Disable writeback throttling by default on bfq, like we do on cfq
(Luca Miccio).
- Series from Ming that enable us to treat flush requests on blk-mq
like any other request. This is a really nice cleanup.
- Series from Ming that improves merging on blk-mq with schedulers,
getting us closer to flipping the switch on scsi-mq again.

to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:
----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()

|

Currently we try to defer completion of async DIO to the process context
in case there are any mapped pages associated with the inode so that we
can invalidate the pages when the IO completes. However the check is racy
and the pages can be mapped afterwards. If this happens we might end up
calling invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in dio_complete() in interrupt
context which could sleep. This can be reproduced by generic/451.
Fix this by passing the information whether we can or can't invalidate
to the dio_complete(). Thanks Eryu Guan for reporting this and Jan Kara
for suggesting a fix.

Commit 332391a9935d ("fs: Fix page cache inconsistency when mixing
buffered and AIO DIO") moved page cache invalidation from
iomap_dio_rw() to iomap_dio_complete() for iomap based direct write
path, but before the dio->end_io() call, and it re-introdued the bug
fixed by commit c771c14baa33 ("iomap: invalidate page caches should
be after iomap_dio_complete() in direct write").
I found this because fstests generic/418 started failing on XFS with
v4.14-rc3 kernel, which is the regression test for this specific
bug.
So similarly, fix it by moving dio->end_io() (which does the
unwritten extent conversion) before page cache invalidation, to make
sure next buffer read reads the final real allocations not unwritten
extents. I also add some comments about why should end_io() go first
in case we get it wrong again in the future.
Note that, there's no such problem in the non-iomap based direct
write path, because we didn't remove the page cache invalidation
after the ->direct_IO() in generic_file_direct_write() call, but I
decided to fix dio_complete() too so we don't leave a landmine
there, also be consistent with iomap_dio_complete().

Currently when mixing buffered reads and asynchronous direct writes it
is possible to end up with the situation where we have stale data in the
page cache while the new data is already written to disk. This is
permanent until the affected pages are flushed away. Despite the fact
that mixing buffered and direct IO is ill-advised it does pose a thread
for a data integrity, is unexpected and should be fixed.
Fix this by deferring completion of asynchronous direct writes to a
process context in the case that there are mapped pages to be found in
the inode. Later before the completion in dio_complete() invalidate
the pages in question. This ensures that after the completion the pages
in the written area are either unmapped, or populated with up-to-date
data. Also do the same for the iomap case which uses
iomap_dio_complete() instead.
This has a side effect of deferring the completion to a process context
for every AIO DIO that happens on inode that has pages mapped. However
since the consensus is that this is ill-advised practice the performance
implication should not be a problem.
This was based on proposal from Jeff Moyer, thanks!

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

A new bio operation flag REQ_NOWAIT is introduced to identify bio's
orignating from iocb with IOCB_NOWAIT. This flag indicates
to return immediately if a request cannot be made instead
of retrying.
Stacked devices such as md (the ones with make_request_fn hooks)
currently are not supported because it may block for housekeeping.
For example, an md can have a part of the device suspended.
For this reason, only request based devices are supported.
In the future, this feature will be expanded to stacked devices
by teaching them how to handle the REQ_NOWAIT flags.

The code currently uses sdio->blkbits to compute the number of blocks to
be cleaned. However sdio->blkbits is derived from the logical block size
of the underlying block device (Refer to the definition of
do_blockdev_direct_IO()). Due to this, generic/299 test would rarely
fail when executed on an ext4 filesystem with 64k as the block size and
when using a virtio based disk (having 512 byte as the logical block
size) inside a kvm guest.
This commit fixes the bug by using inode->i_blkbits to compute the
number of blocks to be cleaned.

Currently direct writes inside i_size on a DIO_SKIP_HOLES filesystem are
not allowed to allocate blocks(get_more_blocks() sets 'create' to 0
before calling get_block() callback), if it's a sparse file, direct
writes fall back to buffered writes to avoid stale data exposure from
concurrent buffered read. But there're two cases that can result in
stale data exposure are not correctly detected.
1. The detection for "writing inside i_size" is not sufficient,
writes can be treated as "extending writes" wrongly. For example,
direct write 1FSB (file system block) to a 1FSB sparse file on
ext2/3/4, starting from offset 0, in this case it's writing inside
i_size, but 'create' is non-zero, because 'block_in_file' and
'(i_size_read(inode) >> blkbits' are both zero.
2. Direct writes starting from or beyong i_size (not inside i_size)
also could trigger block allocation and expose stale data. For
example, consider a sparse file with i_size of 2k, and a write to
offset 2k or 3k into the file, with a filesystem block size of 4k.
(Thanks to Jeff Moyer for pointing this case out in his review.)
The first problem can be demostrated by running ltp-aiodio test ADSP045
many times. When testing on extN filesystems, I see test failures
occasionally, buffered read could read non-zero (stale) data.
ADSP045: dio_sparse -a 4k -w 4k -s 2k -n 1
dio_sparse 0 TINFO : Dirtying free blocks
dio_sparse 0 TINFO : Starting I/O tests
non zero buffer at buf[0] => 0xffffffaa,ffffffaa,ffffffaa,ffffffaa
non-zero read at offset 0
dio_sparse 0 TINFO : Killing childrens(s)
dio_sparse 1 TFAIL : dio_sparse.c:191: 1 children(s) exited abnormally
The second problem can also be reproduced easily by a hacked dio_sparse
program, which accepts an option to specify the write offset.
What we should really do is to disable block allocation for writes that
could result in filling holes inside i_size.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
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.

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.

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

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

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.

This patch fixes a few of those places that I caught while auditing the patch, but the
original patch should be audited further for more occurences of this issue since I'm
not too familiar with the code.

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:
clat percentiles (usec):
| 1.00th=[ 33], 5.00th=[ 34], 10.00th=[ 34], 20.00th=[ 34],
| 30.00th=[ 34], 40.00th=[ 34], 50.00th=[ 35], 60.00th=[ 35],
| 70.00th=[ 35], 80.00th=[ 35], 90.00th=[ 37], 95.00th=[ 80],
| 99.00th=[ 98], 99.50th=[ 151], 99.90th=[ 155], 99.95th=[ 155],
| 99.99th=[ 165]
After:
clat percentiles (usec):
| 1.00th=[ 95], 5.00th=[ 108], 10.00th=[ 129], 20.00th=[ 149],
| 30.00th=[ 155], 40.00th=[ 161], 50.00th=[ 167], 60.00th=[ 171],
| 70.00th=[ 177], 80.00th=[ 185], 90.00th=[ 201], 95.00th=[ 270],

In other setups, Robert Elliott reported seeing good performance
improvements:

The more applications accessing the device, the worse it gets.
Add a new direct-io flags, DIO_SKIP_DIO_COUNT, which tells
do_blockdev_direct_IO() that it need not worry about incrementing
or decrementing the inode i_dio_count for this caller.
