The function name wb_dirty_limit(), its argument @dirty and the local
variable @wb_dirty are mortally confusing given that the function
calculates per-wb threshold value not dirty pages, especially given
that @dirty and @wb_dirty are used elsewhere for dirty pages.
Let's rename the function to wb_calc_thresh() and wb_dirty to
wb_thresh.

cpu_possible_mask represents the CPUs which are actually possible
during that boot instance. For systems which don't support CPU
hotplug, this will match cpu_online_mask exactly in most cases. Even
for systems which support CPU hotplug, the number of possible CPU
slots is highly unlikely to diverge greatly from the number of online
CPUs. The only cases where the difference between possible and online
caused problems were when the boot code failed to initialize the
possible mask and left it fully set at NR_CPUS - 1.
As such, most per-cpu constructs allocate for all possible CPUs and
often iterate over the possibles, which also has the benefit of
avoiding the blocking CPU hotplug synchronization.
memcg open codes per-cpu stat counting for mem_cgroup_read_stat() and
mem_cgroup_read_events(), which iterates over online CPUs and handles
CPU hotplug operations explicitly. This complexity doesn't actually
buy anything. Switch to iterating over the possibles and drop the
explicit CPU hotplug handling.
Eventually, we want to convert memcg to use percpu_counter instead of
its own custom implementation which also benefits from quick access
w/o summing for cases where larger error margin is acceptable.
This will allow mem_cgroup_read_stat() to be called from non-sleepable
contexts which will be used by cgroup writeback.

This patch implements bdi_split_work_to_wbs() and use it to make these

bdi_split_work_to_wbs() takes a base wb_writeback_work and create

work's nr_pages is distributed using wb_split_bdi_pages() -
ie. according to each wb's write bandwidth's proportion in the bdi.
Cloning a bdi involves memory allocation which may fail. In such
cases, bdi_split_work_to_wbs() issues the base work directly and waits
for its completion before proceeding to the next wb to guarantee
forward progress and correctness under memory pressure.

try_writeback_inodes_sb_nr() wraps writeback_inodes_sb_nr() so that it
handles s_umount locking and skips if writeback is already in
progress. The in progress test is performed on the root wb
(bdi_writeback) which isn't sufficient for cgroup writeback support.
The test must be done per-wb.
To prepare for the change, this patch factors out
__writeback_inodes_sb_nr() from writeback_inodes_sb_nr() and adds
@skip_if_busy and moves the in progress test right before queueing the
wb_writeback_work. try_writeback_inodes_sb_nr() now just grabs
s_umount and invokes __writeback_inodes_sb_nr() with asserted
@skip_if_busy. This way, later addition of multiple wb handling can
skip only the wb's which already have writeback in progress.
This swaps the order between in progress test and s_umount test which
can flip the return value when writeback is in progress and s_umount
is being held by someone else but this shouldn't cause any meaningful
difference. It's a fringe condition and the return value is an
unsynchronized hint anyway.

For cgroup writeback, multiple wb_writeback_work items may need to be
issuedto accomplish a single task. The previous patch updated the
waiting mechanism such that wb_wait_for_completion() can wait for
multiple work items.
Issuing mulitple work items involves memory allocation which may fail.
As most writeback operations can't fail or blocked on memory
allocation, in such cases, we'll fall back to sequential issuing of an
on-stack work item, which would need to be waited upon sequentially.
This patch implements wb_wait_for_single_work() which waits for a
single work item independently from wb_completion waiting so that such
fallback mechanism can be used without getting tangled with the usual

There are several places in fs/fs-writeback.c which queues
wb_writeback_work without checking whether the target wb
(bdi_writeback) has dirty inodes or not. The only thing
wb_writeback_work does is writing back the dirty inodes for the target
wb and queueing a work item for a clean wb is essentially noop. There
are some side effects such as bandwidth stats being updated and
triggering tracepoints but these don't affect the operation in any
meaningful way.
This patch makes all writeback_inodes_sb_nr() and sync_inodes_sb()
skip wb_queue_work() if the target bdi is clean. Also, it moves
dirtiness check from wakeup_flusher_threads() to
__wb_start_writeback() so that all its callers benefit from the check.
While the overhead incurred by scheduling a noop work isn't currently
significant, the overhead may be higher with cgroup writeback support
as we may end up issuing noop work items to a lot of clean wb's.

bdi_has_dirty_io() used to only reflect whether the root wb
(bdi_writeback) has dirty inodes. For cgroup writeback support, it
needs to take all active wb's into account. If any wb on the bdi has
dirty inodes, bdi_has_dirty_io() should return true.
To achieve that, as inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked() now keep track
of the dirty state transition of each wb, the number of dirty wbs can
be counted in the bdi; however, bdi is already aggregating
wb->avg_write_bandwidth which can easily be guaranteed to be > 0 when
there are any dirty inodes by ensuring wb->avg_write_bandwidth can't
dip below 1. bdi_has_dirty_io() can simply test whether
bdi->tot_write_bandwidth is zero or not.
While this bumps the value of wb->avg_write_bandwidth to one when it
used to be zero, this shouldn't cause any meaningful behavior
difference.

Currently, wb_has_dirty_io() determines whether a wb (bdi_writeback)
has any dirty inode by testing all three IO lists on each invocation
without actively keeping track. For cgroup writeback support, a
single bdi will host multiple wb's each of which will host dirty
inodes separately and we'll need to make bdi_has_dirty_io(), which
currently only represents the root wb, aggregate has_dirty_io from all
member wb's, which requires tracking transitions in has_dirty_io state
on each wb.
This patch introduces inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked() to consolidate
IO list operations leaving queue_io() the only other function which
directly manipulates IO lists (via move_expired_inodes()). All three
functions are updated to call wb_io_lists_[de]populated() which keep

In several places, bdi_congested() and its wrappers are used to
determine whether more IOs should be issued. With cgroup writeback
support, this question can't be answered solely based on the bdi
(backing_dev_info). It's dependent on whether the filesystem and bdi

This patch implements inode_congested() and its wrappers which take
@inode and determines the congestion state considering cgroup
writeback. The new functions replace bdi_*congested() calls in places
where the query is about specific inode and task.
There are several filesystem users which also fit this criteria but

blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() take @q and set or clear,
respectively, the congestion state of its bdi's root wb. Because bdi
used to be able to handle congestion state only on the root wb, the
callers of those functions tested whether the congestion is on the
root blkcg and skipped if not.
This is cumbersome and makes implementation of per cgroup
bdi_writeback congestion state propagation difficult. This patch
renames blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() to
blk_{set|clear}_congested(), and makes them take request_list instead
of request_queue and test whether the specified request_list is the
root one before updating bdi_writeback congestion state. This makes
the tests in the callers unnecessary and simplifies them.

For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi
(backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb
(bdi_writeback). This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host
multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks).
On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg. This allows
using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every
memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a
dedicated wb to each memcg. This means that there may be multiple
wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg. As congested state is per
blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested
state. This is achieved by tracking congested state via
bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg.
bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup.
cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or
looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page
being dirtied or current task. Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree
by its memcg id. Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be
retrieved using inode_to_wb().
Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all
pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb.
v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside
mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL.
Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed. Both

are EXPORT_GPL'd to allow the inline functions to be used from
modules.
While at it, make sb_is_blkdev_sb() return bool instead of int.
v2: Fixed typo in description as suggested by Jan.

With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.
This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.
v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

Move wb_shutdown(), bdi_register(), bdi_register_dev(),
bdi_prune_sb(), bdi_remove_from_list() and bdi_unregister() so that
init / exit functions are grouped together. This will make updating
init / exit paths for cgroup writeback support easier.
This is pure source file reorganization.

Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear. For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi. To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.
This patch moves bdi->wb_lock and ->worklist into wb.
* The lock protects bdi->worklist and bdi->wb.dwork scheduling. While
moving, rename it to wb->work_lock as wb->wb_lock is confusing.
Also, move wb->dwork downwards so that it's colocated with the new
->work_lock and ->work_list fields.
* bdi_writeback_workfn() -> wb_workfn()
bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed(bdi) -> wb_wakeup_delayed(wb)
bdi_wakeup_thread(bdi) -> wb_wakeup(wb)
bdi_queue_work(bdi, ...) -> wb_queue_work(wb, ...)
__bdi_start_writeback(bdi, ...) -> __wb_start_writeback(wb, ...)
get_next_work_item(bdi) -> get_next_work_item(wb)
* bdi_wb_shutdown() is renamed to wb_shutdown() and now takes @wb.
The function contained parts which belong to the containing bdi
rather than the wb itself - testing cap_writeback_dirty and
bdi_remove_from_list() invocation. Those are moved to
bdi_unregister().
* bdi_wb_{init|exit}() are renamed to wb_{init|exit}().
Initializations of the moved bdi->wb_lock and ->work_list are
relocated from bdi_init() to wb_init().
* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
introducing no behavior changes.

Implement mem_cgroup_css_from_page() which returns the
cgroup_subsys_state of the memcg associated with a given page on the
default hierarchy. This will be used by cgroup writeback support.
This function assumes that page->mem_cgroup association doesn't change
until the page is released, which is true on the default hierarchy as
long as replace_page_cache_page() is not used. As the only user of
replace_page_cache_page() is FUSE which won't support cgroup writeback
for the time being, this works for now, and replace_page_cache_page()
will soon be updated so that the invariant actually holds.
Note that the RCU protected page->mem_cgroup access is consistent with
other usages across memcg but ultimately incorrect. These unlocked
accesses are missing required barriers. page->mem_cgroup should be
made an RCU pointer and updated and accessed using RCU operations.
v4: Instead of triggering WARN, return the root css on the traditional
hierarchies. This makes the function a lot easier to deal with
especially as there's no light way to synchronize against
hierarchy rebinding.
v3: s/mem_cgroup_migrate()/mem_cgroup_css_from_page()/
v2: Trigger WARN if the function is used on the traditional
hierarchies and add comment about the assumed invariant.

bio_associate_current() currently open codes task_css() and
css_tryget_online() to find and pin $current's blkcg css. Abstract it
into task_get_css() which is implemented from cgroup side. As a task
is always associated with an online css for every subsystem except
while the css_set update is propagating, task_get_css() retries till
css_tryget_online() succeeds.
This is a cleanup and shouldn't lead to noticeable behavior changes.

Currently, blkcg does a minor optimization where the root blkcg is
created when the first blkcg policy is activated on a queue and
destroyed on the deactivation of the last. On systems where blkcg is
configured but not used, this saves one blkcg_gq struct per queue. On
systems where blkcg is actually used, there's no difference. The only
case where this can lead to any meaninful, albeit still minute, save
in memory consumption is when all blkcg policies are deactivated after
being widely used in the system, which is a hihgly unlikely scenario.
The conditional existence of root blkcg_gq has already created several
bugs in blkcg and became an issue once again for the new per-cgroup
wb_congested mechanism for cgroup writeback support leading to a NULL
dereference when no blkcg policy is active. This is really not worth
bothering with. This patch makes blkcg always allocate and link the
root blkcg_gq and release it only on queue destruction.

The header file will be used more widely with the pending cgroup
writeback support and the current set of dummy declarations aren't
enough to handle different config combinations. Update as follows.
* Drop the struct cgroup declaration. None of the dummy defs need it.
* Define blkcg as an empty struct instead of just declaring it.
* Wrap dummy function defs in CONFIG_BLOCK. Some functions use block
data types and none of them are to be used w/o block enabled.
