To facilitate additional options to get_user_pages_fast() change the
singular write parameter to be gup_flags.
This patch does not change any functionality. New functionality will
follow in subsequent patches.
Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they
already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter.
NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast()
arguments to ensure that callers were converted. This breaks the current
GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final
parameter. So the suggestion was rejected.

->readpage looks in file->private_data to try and find out how the
userspace program set "count" in read(2) or with "dd bs=" or whatever.
->readpage uses "count" and inode->i_size to calculate how much
data Orangefs should deposit in the Orangefs shared buffer, and
remembers which slot the data is in.
After copying data from the Orangefs shared buffer slot into
"the page", readpage tries to increment through the pagecache index
and fill as many pages as it can from the extra data in the shared
buffer. Hopefully these extra pages will soon be needed by the vfs,
and they'll be in the pagecache already.

Orangefs wins when it can do IO on large (up to four meg) blocks at a time,
and looses when it has to do tiny "small io" reads and writes. Accessing
Orangefs through the pagecache with the kernel module helps with small io,
both reading and writing, a great deal. Readpage generally tries to fetch a
page (four k) at a time. We'll let users use "count" (as in read(2) or
pread(2) for example) as a knob to control how much data they get from
Orangefs at a time and we'll try to use the data to fill extra
pagecache pages when we get to ->readpage, hopefully resulting in
fewer calls to readpage and Orangefs userspace.
We need a way to remember how they set count so that we can still have
it available when we get to ->readpage.
- We'll use file->private_data to keep track of "count".
We'll wrap generic_file_open with orangefs_file_open and
initialize private_data to NULL there.
- In ->read_iter we have access to both "count" and file, so
we'll kmalloc some space onto file->private_data and store
"count" there.
- We'll kfree file->private_data each time we visit ->flush and
reinitialize it to NULL.

Without this, an fsync call is sent to the server even if no data
changed. This resulted in a rather severe (50%) performance regression
under certain metadata-heavy workloads.
In the past, everything was direct IO. Nothing happend on a close call.
An explicit fsync call would send an fsync request to the server which
in turn fsynced the underlying file.
Now there are cached writes. Then fsync began writing out dirty pages
in addition to making an fsync request to the server, and close began
calling fsync.
With this commit, close only writes out dirty pages, and does not make
the fsync request.

OrangeFS accepts a mask indicating which attributes were changed. The

The kernel must set the uid/gid of the request to the actual uid/gid
responsible for the change.
Code path for notify_change initiated setattrs is

No need to store the received mask. It is either STATX_BASIC_STATS or
STATX_BASIC_STATS & ~STATX_SIZE. If STATX_SIZE is requested, the cache
is bypassed anyway, so the cached mask is unnecessary to decide whether
to do a real getattr.
This is a change. Previously a getattr would want size and use the
cached size. All of the in-kernel callers that wanted size did not want
a cached size. Now a getattr cannot use the cached size if it wants
size at all.

This uses the same timeout as the getattr cache. This substantially
increases performance when writing files with smaller buffer sizes.
When writing, the size is (often) changed, which causes a call to
notify_change which calls security_inode_need_killpriv which needs a
getxattr. Caching it reduces traffic to the server.

In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator
direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places.
Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather
then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further
iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch
of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare
instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions.
Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function.
The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required.

This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated
treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec'
to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the
individual file systems.
There were no conflicts between this and the contents of linux-next
until just before the merge window, when we saw multiple problems:
- A minor conflict with my own y2038 fixes, which I could address
by adding another patch on top here.
- One semantic conflict with late changes to the NFS tree. I addressed
this by merging Deepa's original branch on top of the changes that
now got merged into mainline and making sure the merge commit includes
the necessary changes as produced by coccinelle.
- A trivial conflict against the removal of staging/lustre.
- Multiple conflicts against the VFS changes in the overlayfs tree.
These are still part of linux-next, but apparently this is no longer
intended for 4.18 [1], so I am ignoring that part.
As Deepa writes:
The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64.
Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual
replacement becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions.
Thomas Gleixner adds:
I think there is no point to drag that out for the next merge window.
The whole thing needs to be done in one go for the core changes which
means that you're going to play that catchup game forever. Let's get
over with it towards the end of the merge window.

Merge tag 'vfs-timespec64' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground
Pull inode timestamps conversion to timespec64 from Arnd Bergmann:
"This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated
treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec'
to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the
individual file systems.
As Deepa writes:
'The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64.
Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64
timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual replacement
becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions'
Thomas Gleixner adds:
'I think there is no point to drag that out for the next merge
window. The whole thing needs to be done in one go for the core
changes which means that you're going to play that catchup game
forever. Let's get over with it towards the end of the merge window'"
* tag 'vfs-timespec64' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground:
pstore: Remove bogus format string definition
vfs: change inode times to use struct timespec64
pstore: Convert internal records to timespec64
udf: Simplify calls to udf_disk_stamp_to_time
fs: nfs: get rid of memcpys for inode times
ceph: make inode time prints to be long long
lustre: Use long long type to print inode time
fs: add timespec64_truncate()
Pull the timespec64 conversion from Deepa Dinamani:
"The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use
struct timespec64. Currently vfs uses struct timespec,
which is not y2038 safe.
The flag patch applies cleanly. I've not seen the timestamps
update logic change often. The series applies cleanly on 4.17-rc6
and linux-next tip (top commit: next-20180517).
I'm not sure how to merge this kind of a series with a flag patch.
We are targeting 4.18 for this.
Let me know if you have other suggestions.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual
replacement becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
I've tried to keep the conversions with the script simple, to
aid in the reviews. I've kept all the internal filesystem data
structures and function signatures the same.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions."
I've pulled it into a branch based on top of the NFS changes that
are now in mainline, so I could resolve the non-obvious conflict
between the two while merging.
