We also now report writeback completion errors to the file mapping

Internally, the bulk of the changes are Christoph's patchset to reduce

grab_mapping_entry() has a bug in handling of ENOMEM condition. Suppose
we have a PMD entry at index i which we are downgrading to a PTE entry.
grab_mapping_entry() will set pmd_downgrade to true, lock the entry, clear
the entry in xarray, and decrement mapping->nrpages. The it will call:
entry = dax_make_entry(pfn_to_pfn_t(0), flags);
dax_lock_entry(xas, entry);
which inserts new PTE entry into xarray. However this may fail allocating
the new node. We handle this by:
if (xas_nomem(xas, mapping_gfp_mask(mapping) & ~__GFP_HIGHMEM))
goto retry;
however pmd_downgrade stays set to true even though 'entry' returned from
get_unlocked_entry() will be NULL now. And we will go again through the
downgrade branch. This is mostly harmless except that mapping->nrpages is
decremented again and we temporarily have an invalid entry stored in
xarray. Fix the problem by setting pmd_downgrade to false each time we
lookup the entry we work with so that it matches the entry we found.

"A fix for a hang condition due to missed wakeups in the filesystem-dax
core when exercised by virtiofs.
This bug has been there from the beginning, but the condition has
not triggered on other filesystems since they hold a lock over
invalidation events"
* tag 'dax-fixes-5.13-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm:
dax: Wake up all waiters after invalidating dax entry
dax: Add a wakeup mode parameter to put_unlocked_entry()
dax: Add an enum for specifying dax wakup mode
I am seeing missed wakeups which ultimately lead to a deadlock when I am
using virtiofs with DAX enabled and running "make -j". I had to mount
virtiofs as rootfs and also reduce to dax window size to 256M to reproduce
the problem consistently.
So here is the problem. put_unlocked_entry() wakes up waiters only
if entry is not null as well as !dax_is_conflict(entry). But if I
call multiple instances of invalidate_inode_pages2() in parallel,
then I can run into a situation where there are waiters on
this index but nobody will wake these waiters.
invalidate_inode_pages2()
invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
invalidate_exceptional_entry2()
dax_invalidate_mapping_entry_sync()
__dax_invalidate_entry() {
xas_lock_irq(&xas);
entry = get_unlocked_entry(&xas, 0);
...
...
dax_disassociate_entry(entry, mapping, trunc);
xas_store(&xas, NULL);
...
...
put_unlocked_entry(&xas, entry);
xas_unlock_irq(&xas);
}
Say a fault in in progress and it has locked entry at offset say "0x1c".
Now say three instances of invalidate_inode_pages2() are in progress
(A, B, C) and they all try to invalidate entry at offset "0x1c". Given
dax entry is locked, all tree instances A, B, C will wait in wait queue.
When dax fault finishes, say A is woken up. It will store NULL entry
at index "0x1c" and wake up B. When B comes along it will find "entry=0"
at page offset 0x1c and it will call put_unlocked_entry(&xas, 0). And
this means put_unlocked_entry() will not wake up next waiter, given
the current code. And that means C continues to wait and is not woken
up.
This patch fixes the issue by waking up all waiters when a dax entry
has been invalidated. This seems to fix the deadlock I am facing
and I can make forward progress.

Patch series "Remove nrexceptional tracking", v2.
We actually use nrexceptional for very little these days. It's a minor
pain to keep in sync with nrpages, but the pain becomes much bigger with
the THP patches because we don't know how many indices a shadow entry
occupies. It's easier to just remove it than keep it accurate.
Also, we save 8 bytes per inode which is nothing to sneeze at; on my
laptop, it would improve shmem_inode_cache from 22 to 23 objects per
16kB, and inode_cache from 26 to 27 objects. Combined, that saves
a megabyte of memory from a combined usage of 25MB for both caches.
Unfortunately, ext4 doesn't cross a magic boundary, so it doesn't save
any memory for ext4.
This patch (of 4):
Instead of checking the two counters (nrpages and nrexceptional), we can
just check whether i_pages is empty.

Currently, the follow_pfn function is exported for modules but
follow_pte is not. However, follow_pfn is very easy to misuse,
because it does not provide protections (so most of its callers
assume the page is writable!) and because it returns after having
already unlocked the page table lock.
Provide instead a simplified version of follow_pte that does
not have the pmdpp and range arguments. The older version

Pass the full length to iomap_zero() and dax_iomap_zero(), and have
them return how many bytes they actually handled. This is preparatory
work for handling THP, although it looks like DAX could actually take
advantage of it if there's a larger contiguous area.

virtiofs device has a range of memory which is mapped into file inodes
using dax. This memory is mapped in qemu on host and maps different
sections of real file on host. Size of this memory is limited
(determined by administrator) and depending on filesystem size, we will
soon reach a situation where all the memory is in use and we need to
reclaim some.
As part of reclaim process, we will need to make sure that there are
no active references to pages (taken by get_user_pages()) on the memory
range we are trying to reclaim. I am planning to use
dax_layout_busy_page() for this. But in current form this is per inode
and scans through all the pages of the inode.
We want to reclaim only a portion of memory (say 2MB page). So we want
to make sure that only that 2MB range of pages do not have any
references (and don't want to unmap all the pages of inode).
Hence, create a range version of this function named
dax_layout_busy_page_range() which can be used to pass a range which
needs to be unmapped.

The argument passed to xas_set_err() to indicate an error should be negative.
Otherwise, xas_error() will return 0, and grab_mapping_entry() will return the
found entry instead of 'SIGBUS' when the entry is not in fact valid.
This would result in problems in subsequent code paths.

Passing size to copy_user_dax implies it can copy variable sizes of data
when in fact it calls copy_user_page() which is exactly a page.
We are safe because the only caller uses PAGE_SIZE anyway so just remove
the variable for clarity.
While we are at it change copy_user_dax() to copy_cow_page_dax() to make
it clear it is a singleton helper for this one case not implementing
what dax_iomap_actor() does.

As of now dax_writeback_mapping_range() takes "struct block_device" as a
parameter and dax_dev is searched from bdev name. This also involves taking
a fresh reference on dax_dev and putting that reference at the end of
function.
We are developing a new filesystem virtio-fs and using dax to access host
page cache directly. But there is no block device. IOW, we want to make
use of dax but want to get rid of this assumption that there is always
a block device associated with dax_dev.
So pass in "struct dax_device" as parameter instead of bdev.
ext2/ext4/xfs are current users and they already have a reference on
dax_device. So there is no need to take reference and drop reference to
dax_device on each call of this function.

"As of now dax_layout_busy_page() calls unmap_mapping_range() with last
argument as 1, which says even unmap cow pages. I am wondering who needs
to get rid of cow pages as well.
I noticed one interesting side affect of this. I mount xfs with -o dax and
mmaped a file with MAP_PRIVATE and wrote some data to a page which created
cow page. Then I called fallocate() on that file to zero a page of file.
fallocate() called dax_layout_busy_page() which unmapped cow pages as well
and then I tried to read back the data I wrote and what I get is old
data from persistent memory. I lost the data I had written. This
read basically resulted in new fault and read back the data from
persistent memory.
This sounds wrong. Are there any users which need to unmap cow pages
as well? If not, I am proposing changing it to not unmap cow pages.
I noticed this while while writing virtio_fs code where when I tried
to reclaim a memory range and that corrupted the executable and I
was running from virtio-fs and program got segment violation."
Dan:
"In fact the unmap_mapping_range() in this path is only to synchronize
against get_user_pages_fast() and force it to call back into the
filesystem to re-establish the mapping. COW pages should be left
untouched by dax_layout_busy_page()."

RocksDB can hang indefinitely when using a DAX file. This is due to
a bug in the XArray conversion when handling a PMD fault and finding a
PTE entry. We use the wrong index in the hash and end up waiting on
the wrong waitqueue.
There's actually no need to wait; if we find a PTE entry while looking
for a PMD entry, we can return immediately as we know we should fall
back to a PTE fault (which may not conflict with the lock held).
We reuse the XA_RETRY_ENTRY to signal a conflicting entry was found.
This value can never be found in an XArray while holding its lock, so
it does not create an ambiguity.

and writer locking threads, the min/mean/max locking operations
done in a 5-second testing window before the patchset were:

40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/50,344/151,255

There's a lot of changes to the locking implementation that makes
it similar to qrwlock, including owner handoff for more fair

Another microbenchmark shows how across the spectrum the

The changes are extensive and the patch-set has been through
several iterations addressing various locking workloads. There
might be more regressions, but unless they are pathological I
believe we want to use this new implementation as the baseline
going forward.
- jump-label optimizations by Daniel Bristot de Oliveira: the primary
motivation was to remove IPI disturbance of isolated RT-workload
CPUs, which resulted in the implementation of batched jump-label
updates. Beyond the improvement of the real-time characteristics
kernel, in one test this patchset improved static key update
overhead from 57 msecs to just 1.4 msecs - which is a nice speedup
as well.
- atomic64_t cross-arch type cleanups by Mark Rutland: over the last
~10 years of atomic64_t existence the various types used by the
APIs only had to be self-consistent within each architecture -
which means they became wildly inconsistent across architectures.
Mark puts and end to this by reworking all the atomic64
implementations to use 's64' as the base type for atomic64_t, and
to ensure that this type is consistently used for parameters and
return values in the API, avoiding further problems in this area.
- A large set of small improvements to lockdep by Yuyang Du: type
cleanups, output cleanups, function return type and othr cleanups
all around the place.
