2017-07-10mm: always enable thp for dax mappingsDan Williams
The madvise policy for transparent huge pages is meant to avoid unwanted allocations of transparent huge pages. It allows a policy of disabling the extra memory pressure and effort to arrange for a huge page when it is not needed. DAX by definition never incurs this overhead since it is statically allocated. The policy choice makes even less sense for device-dax which tries to guarantee a given tlb-fault size. Specifically, the following setting: echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled ...violates that guarantee and silently disables all device-dax instances with a 2M or 1G alignment. So, let's avoid that non-obvious side effect by force enabling thp for dax mappings in all cases. It is worth noting that the reason this uses vma_is_dax(), and the resulting header include changes, is that previous attempts to add a VM_DAX flag were NAKd.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux Pull Writeback error handling updates from Jeff Layton: "This pile represents the bulk of the writeback error handling fixes that I have for this cycle. Some of the earlier patches in this pile may look trivial but they are prerequisites for later patches in the series. The aim of this set is to improve how we track and report writeback errors to userland. Most applications that care about data integrity will periodically call fsync/fdatasync/msync to ensure that their writes have made it to the backing store. For a very long time, we have tracked writeback errors using two flags in the address_space: AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC. Those flags are set when a writeback error occurs (via mapping_set_error) and are cleared as a side-effect of filemap_check_errors (as you noted yesterday). This model really sucks for userland. Only the first task to call fsync (or msync or fdatasync) will see the error. Any subsequent task calling fsync on a file will get back 0 (unless another writeback error occurs in the interim). If I have several tasks writing to a file and calling fsync to ensure that their writes got stored, then I need to have them coordinate with one another. That's difficult enough, but in a world of containerized setups that coordination may even not be possible. But wait...it gets worse! The calls to filemap_check_errors can be buried pretty far down in the call stack, and there are internal callers of filemap_write_and_wait and the like that also end up clearing those errors. Many of those callers ignore the error return from that function or return it to userland at nonsensical times (e.g. truncate() or stat()). If I get back -EIO on a truncate, there is no reason to think that it was because some previous writeback failed, and a subsequent fsync() will (incorrectly) return 0. This pile aims to do three things: 1) ensure that when a writeback error occurs that that error will be reported to userland on a subsequent fsync/fdatasync/msync call, regardless of what internal callers are doing 2) report writeback errors on all file descriptions that were open at the time that the error occurred. This is a user-visible change, but I think most applications are written to assume this behavior anyway. Those that aren't are unlikely to be hurt by it. 3) document what filesystems should do when there is a writeback error. Today, there is very little consistency between them, and a lot of cargo-cult copying. We need to make it very clear what filesystems should do in this situation. To achieve this, the set adds a new data type (errseq_t) and then builds new writeback error tracking infrastructure around that. Once all of that is in place, we change the filesystems to use the new infrastructure for reporting wb errors to userland. Note that this is just the initial foray into cleaning up this mess. There is a lot of work remaining here: 1) convert the rest of the filesystems in a similar fashion. Once the initial set is in, then I think most other fs' will be fairly simple to convert. Hopefully most of those can in via individual filesystem trees. 2) convert internal waiters on writeback to use errseq_t for detecting errors instead of relying on the AS_* flags. I have some draft patches for this for ext4, but they are not quite ready for prime time yet. This was a discussion topic this year at LSF/MM too.

2017-07-06fs: new infrastructure for writeback error handling and reportingJeff Layton
Most filesystems currently use mapping_set_error and filemap_check_errors for setting and reporting/clearing writeback errors at the mapping level. filemap_check_errors is indirectly called from most of the filemap_fdatawait_* functions and from filemap_write_and_wait*. These functions are called from all sorts of contexts to wait on writeback to finish -- e.g. mostly in fsync, but also in truncate calls, getattr, etc. The non-fsync callers are problematic. We should be reporting writeback errors during fsync, but many places spread over the tree clear out errors before they can be properly reported, or report errors at nonsensical times. If I get -EIO on a stat() call, there is no reason for me to assume that it is because some previous writeback failed. The fact that it also clears out the error such that a subsequent fsync returns 0 is a bug, and a nasty one since that's potentially silent data corruption. This patch adds a small bit of new infrastructure for setting and reporting errors during address_space writeback. While the above was my original impetus for adding this, I think it's also the case that current fsync semantics are just problematic for userland. Most applications that call fsync do so to ensure that the data they wrote has hit the backing store. In the case where there are multiple writers to the file at the same time, this is really hard to determine. The first one to call fsync will see any stored error, and the rest get back 0. The processes with open fds may not be associated with one another in any way. They could even be in different containers, so ensuring coordination between all fsync callers is not really an option. One way to remedy this would be to track what file descriptor was used to dirty the file, but that's rather cumbersome and would likely be slow. However, there is a simpler way to improve the semantics here without incurring too much overhead. This set adds an errseq_t to struct address_space, and a corresponding one is added to struct file. Writeback errors are recorded in the mapping's errseq_t, and the one in struct file is used as the "since" value. This changes the semantics of the Linux fsync implementation such that applications can now use it to determine whether there were any writeback errors since fsync(fd) was last called (or since the file was opened in the case of fsync having never been called). Note that those writeback errors may have occurred when writing data that was dirtied via an entirely different fd, but that's the case now with the current mapping_set_error/filemap_check_error infrastructure. This will at least prevent you from getting a false report of success. The new behavior is still consistent with the POSIX spec, and is more reliable for application developers. This patch just adds some basic infrastructure for doing this, and ensures that the f_wb_err "cursor" is properly set when a file is opened. Later patches will change the existing code to use this new infrastructure for reporting errors at fsync time. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

2017-06-27fs: add fcntl() interface for setting/getting write life time hintsJens Axboe
Define a set of write life time hints: RWH_WRITE_LIFE_NOT_SET No hint information set RWH_WRITE_LIFE_NONE No hints about write life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_SHORT Data written has a short life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_MEDIUM Data written has a medium life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_LONG Data written has a long life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_EXTREME Data written has an extremely long life time The intent is for these values to be relative to each other, no absolute meaning should be attached to these flag names. Add an fcntl interface for querying these flags, and also for setting them as well: F_GET_RW_HINT Returns the read/write hint set on the underlying inode. F_SET_RW_HINT Set one of the above write hints on the underlying inode. F_GET_FILE_RW_HINT Returns the read/write hint set on the file descriptor. F_SET_FILE_RW_HINT Set one of the above write hints on the file descriptor. The user passes in a 64-bit pointer to get/set these values, and the interface returns 0/-1 on success/error. Sample program testing/implementing basic setting/getting of write hints is below. Add support for storing the write life time hint in the inode flags and in struct file as well, and pass them to the kiocb flags. If both a file and its corresponding inode has a write hint, then we use the one in the file, if available. The file hint can be used for sync/direct IO, for buffered writeback only the inode hint is available.

2017-04-10fsnotify: Free fsnotify_mark_connector when there is no mark attachedJan Kara
Currently we free fsnotify_mark_connector structure only when inode / vfsmount is getting freed. This can however impose noticeable memory overhead when marks get attached to inodes only temporarily. So free the connector structure once the last mark is detached from the object. Since notification infrastructure can be working with the connector under the protection of fsnotify_mark_srcu, we have to be careful and free the fsnotify_mark_connector only after SRCU period passes.

2017-04-10fsnotify: Move mark list head from object into dedicated structureJan Kara
Currently notification marks are attached to object (inode or vfsmnt) by a hlist_head in the object. The list is also protected by a spinlock in the object. So while there is any mark attached to the list of marks, the object must be pinned in memory (and thus e.g. last iput() deleting inode cannot happen). Also for list iteration in fsnotify() to work, we must hold fsnotify_mark_srcu lock so that mark itself and mark->obj_list.next cannot get freed. Thus we are required to wait for response to fanotify events from userspace process with fsnotify_mark_srcu lock held. That causes issues when userspace process is buggy and does not reply to some event - basically the whole notification subsystem gets eventually stuck. So to be able to drop fsnotify_mark_srcu lock while waiting for response, we have to pin the mark in memory and make sure it stays in the object list (as removing the mark waiting for response could lead to lost notification events for groups later in the list). However we don't want inode reclaim to block on such mark as that would lead to system just locking up elsewhere. This commit is the first in the series that paves way towards solving these conflicting lifetime needs. Instead of anchoring the list of marks directly in the object, we anchor it in a dedicated structure (fsnotify_mark_connector) and just point to that structure from the object. The following commits will also add spinlock protecting the list and object pointer to the structure.

2017-03-02statx: Add a system call to make enhanced file info availableDavid Howells
Add a system call to make extended file information available, including file creation and some attribute flags where available through the underlying filesystem. The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the synchronisation mode. This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*() function. Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage. ======== OVERVIEW ======== The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall with an extended stat structure. A number of requests were gathered for features to be included. The following have been included: (1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large. (2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for future expansion. (3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an __s64). (4) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data (stx_btime). This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could be exported by NFSD [Steve French]. (5) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas Dilger] (AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC). (6) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust] (AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC). And the following have been left out for future extension: (7) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh Kumar]. Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr(). It could get it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead. (There's disagreement on the exact semantics of a single field, since not all filesystems do this the same way). (8) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen) [Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert]. (9) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers [Bernd Schubert]. (This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary with the open-by-handle capability available and caused disagreement as to whether it's a security hole or not). (10) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger]. (No particular data were offered, but things like last backup timestamp, the data version number and the DOS archive bit would come into this category). (11) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't exist or are fabricated locally... (This requires a separate system call - I have an fsinfo() call idea for this). (12) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in struct xstat [Steve French]. (Deferred to fsinfo). (13) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French]. (Deferred to fsinfo). (14) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value. These could be translated to BSD's st_flags. Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4 define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too). (Some attributes are made available in stx_attributes, but the general feeling was that the IOC flags were to ext[234]-specific and shouldn't be exposed through statx this way). (15) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer, Michael Kerrisk]. (Deferred, probably to fsinfo. Finding out if there's an ACL or seclabal might require extra filesystem operations). (16) Femtosecond-resolution timestamps [Dave Chinner]. (A __reserved field has been left in the statx_timestamp struct for this - if there proves to be a need). (17) A set multiple attributes syscall to go with this. =============== NEW SYSTEM CALL =============== The new system call is: int ret = statx(int dfd, const char *filename, unsigned int flags, unsigned int mask, struct statx *buffer); The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query, in a similar way to fstatat(). There is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be emulated with statx() by passing AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags. There is also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL filename to statx() with the fd of interest in dfd. Whether or not statx() synchronises the attributes with the backing store can be controlled by OR'ing a value into the flags argument (this typically only affects network filesystems): (1) AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT tells statx() to behave as stat() does in this respect. (2) AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC will require a network filesystem to synchronise its attributes with the server - which might require data writeback to occur to get the timestamps correct. (3) AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC will suppress synchronisation with the server in a network filesystem. The resulting values should be considered approximate. mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of interest to the caller. The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to get the basic set returned by stat(). It should be noted that asking for more information may entail extra I/O operations. buffer points to the destination for the data. This must be 256 bytes in size. ====================== MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD ====================== The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute set: struct statx_timestamp { __s64 tv_sec; __s32 tv_nsec; __s32 __reserved; }; struct statx { __u32 stx_mask; __u32 stx_blksize; __u64 stx_attributes; __u32 stx_nlink; __u32 stx_uid; __u32 stx_gid; __u16 stx_mode; __u16 __spare0[1]; __u64 stx_ino; __u64 stx_size; __u64 stx_blocks; __u64 __spare1[1]; struct statx_timestamp stx_atime; struct statx_timestamp stx_btime; struct statx_timestamp stx_ctime; struct statx_timestamp stx_mtime; __u32 stx_rdev_major; __u32 stx_rdev_minor; __u32 stx_dev_major; __u32 stx_dev_minor; __u64 __spare2[14]; }; The defined bits in request_mask and stx_mask are: STATX_TYPE Want/got stx_mode & S_IFMT STATX_MODE Want/got stx_mode & ~S_IFMT STATX_NLINK Want/got stx_nlink STATX_UID Want/got stx_uid STATX_GID Want/got stx_gid STATX_ATIME Want/got stx_atime{,_ns} STATX_MTIME Want/got stx_mtime{,_ns} STATX_CTIME Want/got stx_ctime{,_ns} STATX_INO Want/got stx_ino STATX_SIZE Want/got stx_size STATX_BLOCKS Want/got stx_blocks STATX_BASIC_STATS [The stuff in the normal stat struct] STATX_BTIME Want/got stx_btime{,_ns} STATX_ALL [All currently available stuff] stx_btime is the file creation time, stx_mask is a bitmask indicating the data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet undefined fields can be placed. Time fields are structures with separate seconds and nanoseconds fields plus a reserved field in case we want to add even finer resolution. Note that times will be negative if before 1970; in such a case, the nanosecond fields will also be negative if not zero. The bits defined in the stx_attributes field convey information about a file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does. The following attributes map to FS_*_FL flags and are the same numerical value: STATX_ATTR_COMPRESSED File is compressed by the fs STATX_ATTR_IMMUTABLE File is marked immutable STATX_ATTR_APPEND File is append-only STATX_ATTR_NODUMP File is not to be dumped STATX_ATTR_ENCRYPTED File requires key to decrypt in fs Within the kernel, the supported flags are listed by: KSTAT_ATTR_FS_IOC_FLAGS [Are any other IOC flags of sufficient general interest to be exposed through this interface?] New flags include: STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT Object is an automount trigger These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially, depending on what they are. Fields in struct statx come in a number of classes: (0) stx_dev_*, stx_blksize. These are local system information and are always available. (1) stx_mode, stx_nlinks, stx_uid, stx_gid, stx_[amc]time, stx_ino, stx_size, stx_blocks. These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not. The corresponding bits in stx_mask will be set to indicate whether they actually have valid values. If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server, unless as a byproduct of updating something requested. If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the stx_mask, even if the caller asked for the value. In such a case, the returned value will be a fabrication. Note that there are instances where the type might not be valid, for instance Windows reparse points. (2) stx_rdev_*. This will be set only if stx_mode indicates we're looking at a blockdev or a chardev, otherwise will be 0. (3) stx_btime. Similar to (1), except this will be set to 0 if it doesn't exist. ======= TESTING ======= The following test program can be used to test the statx system call: samples/statx/test-statx.c Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine. The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled. Here's some example output. Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to another FSID. Note that the AUTOMOUNT attribute is set because transiting this directory will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.

2017-02-07vfs: wrap write f_ops with file_{start,end}_write()Amir Goldstein
Before calling write f_ops, call file_start_write() instead of sb_start_write(). Replace {sb,file}_start_write() for {copy,clone}_file_range() and for fallocate(). Beyond correct semantics, this avoids freeze protection to sb when operating on special inodes, such as fallocate() on a blockdev.
