2032a8a27b xfs: serialize unaligned dio writes against all other dio writes
XFS applies more strict serialization constraints to unaligned
direct writes to accommodate things like direct I/O layer zeroing,
unwritten extent conversion, etc. Unaligned submissions acquire the
exclusive iolock and wait for in-flight dio to complete to ensure
multiple submissions do not race on the same block and cause data
corruption.

This generally works in the case of an aligned dio followed by an
unaligned dio, but the serialization is lost if I/Os occur in the
opposite order. If an unaligned write is submitted first and
immediately followed by an overlapping, aligned write, the latter
submits without the typical unaligned serialization barriers because
there is no indication of an unaligned dio still in-flight. This can
lead to unpredictable results.

To provide proper unaligned dio serialization, require that such
direct writes are always the only dio allowed in-flight at one time
for a particular inode. We already acquire the exclusive iolock and
drain pending dio before submitting the unaligned dio. Wait once
more after the dio submission to hold the iolock across the I/O and
prevent further submissions until the unaligned I/O completes. This
is heavy handed, but consistent with the current pre-submission
serialization for unaligned direct writes.

66ae56a53f xfs: introduce an always_cow mode
Add a mode where XFS never overwrites existing blocks in place.  This
is to aid debugging our COW code, and also put infatructure in place
for things like possible future support for zoned block devices, which
can't support overwrites.

This mode is enabled globally by doing a:

    echo 1 > /sys/fs/xfs/debug/always_cow

Note that the parameter is global to allow running all tests in xfstests
easily in this mode, which would not easily be possible with a per-fs
sysfs file.

In always_cow mode persistent preallocations are disabled, and fallocate
will fail when called with a 0 mode (with our without
FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE), and not create unwritten extent for zeroed space
when called with FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE or FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.

There are a few interesting xfstests failures when run in always_cow
mode:

 - generic/392 fails because the bytes used in the file used to test
   hole punch recovery are less after the log replay.  This is
   because the blocks written and then punched out are only freed
   with a delay due to the logging mechanism.
 - xfs/170 will fail as the already fragile file streams mechanism
   doesn't seem to interact well with the COW allocator
 - xfs/180 xfs/182 xfs/192 xfs/198 xfs/204 and xfs/208 will claim
   the file system is badly fragmented, but there is not much we
   can do to avoid that when always writing out of place
 - xfs/205 fails because overwriting a file in always_cow mode
   will require new space allocation and the assumption in the
   test thus don't work anymore.
 - xfs/326 fails to modify the file at all in always_cow mode after
   injecting the refcount error, leading to an unexpected md5sum
   after the remount, but that again is expected

60271ab79d xfs: fix SEEK_DATA for speculative COW fork preallocation
We speculatively allocate extents in the COW fork to reduce
fragmentation.  But when we write data into such COW fork blocks that
do now shadow an allocation in the data fork SEEK_DATA will not
correctly report it, as it only looks at the data fork extents.
The only reason why that hasn't been an issue so far is because
we even use these speculative COW fork preallocations over holes in
the data fork at all for buffered writes, and blocks in the COW
fork that are written by direct writes are moved into the data
fork immediately at I/O completion time.

Add a new set of iomap_ops for SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA which looks into
both the COW and data fork, and reports all COW extents as unwritten
to the iomap layer.  While this isn't strictly true for COW fork
extents that were already converted to real extents, the practical
semantics that you can't read data from them until they are moved
into the data fork are very similar, and this will force the iomap
layer into probing the extents for actually present data.

3f68c1f562 xfs: support returning partial reflink results
Back when the XFS reflink code only supported clone_file_range, we were
only able to return zero or negative error codes to userspace.  However,
now that copy_file_range (which returns bytes copied) can use XFS'
clone_file_range, we have the opportunity to return partial results.
For example, if userspace sends a 1GB clone request and we run out of
space halfway through, we at least can tell userspace that we completed
512M of that request like a regular write.

42ec3d4c02 vfs: make remap_file_range functions take and return bytes completed
Change the remap_file_range functions to take a number of bytes to
operate upon and return the number of bytes they operated on.  This is a
requirement for allowing fs implementations to return short clone/dedupe
results to the user, which will enable us to obey resource limits in a
graceful manner.

A subsequent patch will enable copy_file_range to signal to the
->clone_file_range implementation that it can handle a short length,
which will be returned in the function's return value.  For now the
short return is not implemented anywhere so the behavior won't change --
either copy_file_range manages to clone the entire range or it tries an
alternative.

Neither clone ioctl can take advantage of this, alas.

e1fb4a0864 dax: remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device dax
This patch is reworked from an earlier patch that Dan has posted:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10131727/

VM_MIXEDMAP is used by dax to direct mm paths like vm_normal_page() that
the memory page it is dealing with is not typical memory from the linear
map.  The get_user_pages_fast() path, since it does not resolve the vma,
is already using {pte,pmd}_devmap() as a stand-in for VM_MIXEDMAP, so we
use that as a VM_MIXEDMAP replacement in some locations.  In the cases
where there is no pte to consult we fallback to using vma_is_dax() to
detect the VM_MIXEDMAP special case.

Now that we have explicit driver pfn_t-flag opt-in/opt-out for
get_user_pages() support for DAX we can stop setting VM_MIXEDMAP.  This
also means we no longer need to worry about safely manipulating vm_flags
in a future where we support dynamically changing the dax mode of a
file.

DAX should also now be supported with madvise_behavior(), vma_merge(),
and copy_page_range().

This patch has been tested against ndctl unit test.  It has also been
tested against xfstests commit: 625515d using fake pmem created by
memmap and no additional issues have been observed.

e25ff835af xfs: Close race between direct IO and xfs_break_layouts()
This patch is the duplicate of ross's fix for ext4 for xfs.

If the refcount of a page is lowered between the time that it is returned
by dax_busy_page() and when the refcount is again checked in
xfs_break_layouts() => ___wait_var_event(), the waiting function
xfs_wait_dax_page() will never be called.  This means that
xfs_break_layouts() will still have 'retry' set to false, so we'll stop
looping and never check the refcount of other pages in this inode.

Instead, always continue looping as long as dax_layout_busy_page() gives us
a page which it found with an elevated refcount.

7d3bf613e9 libnvdimm for 4.18
* DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped pages.
   The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a pinned page
   from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical block. With DAX
   the page is equivalent to the filesystem block. Introduce
   dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for pinned DAX
   pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem could allocate
   blocks under active device-DMA to a new file.
 
 * DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses
   dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls.
   However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem
   block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX
   block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe().
 
 * Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform
   Capabilities Structure to properly elide cache flushes when they are not

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "This adds a user for the new 'bytes-remaining' updates to
  memcpy_mcsafe() that you already received through Ingo via the
  x86-dax- for-linus pull.

  Not included here, but still targeting this cycle, is support for
  handling memory media errors (poison) consumed via userspace dax
  mappings.

  Summary:

   - DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped
     pages. The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a
     pinned page from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical
     block. With DAX the page is equivalent to the filesystem block.
     Introduce dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for
     pinned DAX pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem
     could allocate blocks under active device-DMA to a new file.

   - DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses
     dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls.
     However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem
     block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX
     block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe().

   - Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform
     Capabilities Structure to properly elide cache flushes when they
     are not necessary. The table indicates whether CPU caches are
     power-fail protected. Clarify that a deep flush is always performed

0b61f8a407 xfs: convert to SPDX license tags
Remove the verbose license text from XFS files and replace them
with SPDX tags. This does not change the license of any of the code,
merely refers to the common, up-to-date license files in LICENSES/

This change was mostly scripted. fs/xfs/Makefile and
fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_fs.h were modified by hand, the rest were detected
and modified by the following command:

for f in `git grep -l "GNU General" fs/xfs/` ; do
	echo $f
	cat $f | awk -f hdr.awk > $f.new
	mv -f $f.new $f
done

And the hdr.awk script that did the modification (including
detecting the difference between GPL-2.0 and GPL-2.0+ licenses)
is as follows:

$ cat hdr.awk
BEGIN {
	hdr = 1.0
	tag = "GPL-2.0"
	str = ""
}

/^ \* This program is free software/ {
	hdr = 2.0;
	next
}

/any later version./ {
	tag = "GPL-2.0+"
	next
}

d6dc57e251 xfs, dax: introduce xfs_break_dax_layouts()
xfs_break_dax_layouts(), similar to xfs_break_leased_layouts(), scans
for busy / pinned dax pages and waits for those pages to go idle before
any potential extent unmap operation.

dax_layout_busy_page() handles synchronizing against new page-busy
events (get_user_pages). It invalidates all mappings to trigger the
get_user_pages slow path which will eventually block on the xfs inode
lock held in XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL mode. If dax_layout_busy_page() finds a
busy page it returns it for xfs to wait for the page-idle event that
will fire when the page reference count reaches 1 (recall ZONE_DEVICE
pages are idle at count 1, see generic_dax_pagefree()).

While waiting, the XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL lock is dropped in order to not
deadlock the process that might be trying to elevate the page count of
more pages before arranging for any of them to go idle. I.e. the typical
case of submitting I/O is that iov_iter_get_pages() elevates the
reference count of all pages in the I/O before starting I/O on the first
page. The process of elevating the reference count of all pages involved
in an I/O may cause faults that need to take XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL.

Although XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL is dropped while waiting, XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL is
held while sleeping. We need this to prevent starvation of the truncate
path as continuous submission of direct-I/O could starve the truncate
path indefinitely if the lock is dropped.

69eb5fa10e xfs: prepare xfs_break_layouts() for another layout type
When xfs is operating as the back-end of a pNFS block server, it
prevents collisions between local and remote operations by requiring a
lease to be held for remotely accessed blocks. Local filesystem
operations break those leases before writing or mutating the extent map
of the file.

A similar mechanism is needed to prevent operations on pinned dax
mappings, like device-DMA, from colliding with extent unmap operations.

BREAK_WRITE and BREAK_UNMAP are introduced as two distinct levels of
layout breaking.

Layouts are broken in the BREAK_WRITE case to ensure that layout-holders
do not collide with local writes. Additionally, layouts are broken in
the BREAK_UNMAP case to make sure the layout-holder has a consistent
view of the file's extent map. While BREAK_WRITE breaks can be satisfied
be recalling FL_LAYOUT leases, BREAK_UNMAP breaks additionally require
waiting for busy dax-pages to go idle while holding XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL.

After this refactoring xfs_break_layouts() becomes the entry point for
coordinating both types of breaks. Finally, xfs_break_leased_layouts()
becomes just the BREAK_WRITE handler.

Note that the unlock tracking is needed in a follow on change. That will
coordinate retrying either break handler until both successfully test
for a lease break while maintaining the lock state.

c63a8eae63 xfs: prepare xfs_break_layouts() to be called with XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL
In preparation for adding coordination between extent unmap operations
and busy dax-pages, update xfs_break_layouts() to permit it to be called
with the mmap lock held. This lock scheme will be required for
coordinating the break of 'dax layouts' (non-idle dax (ZONE_DEVICE)
pages mapped into the file's address space). Breaking dax layouts will
be added to xfs_break_layouts() in a future patch, for now this preps
the unmap call sites to take and hold XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL over the call to
xfs_break_layouts().

4f8ff44ba0 iomap: iomap_dio_rw() handles all sync writes
Currently iomap_dio_rw() only handles (data)sync write completions
for AIO. This means we can't optimised non-AIO IO to minimise device
flushes as we can't tell the caller whether a flush is required or
not.

To solve this problem and enable further optimisations, make
iomap_dio_rw responsible for data sync behaviour for all IO, not
just AIO.

In doing so, the sync operation is now accounted as part of the DIO
IO by inode_dio_end(), hence post-IO data stability updates will no
long race against operations that serialise via inode_dio_wait()
such as truncate or hole punch.

7d83fb1425 xfs: prevent creating negative-sized file via INSERT_RANGE
During the "insert range" fallocate operation, i_size grows by the
specified 'len' bytes.  XFS verifies that i_size + len < s_maxbytes, as
it should.  But this comparison is done using the signed 'loff_t', and
'i_size + len' can wrap around to a negative value, causing the check to
incorrectly pass, resulting in an inode with "negative" i_size.  This is
possible on 64-bit platforms, where XFS sets s_maxbytes = LLONG_MAX.
ext4 and f2fs don't run into this because they set a smaller s_maxbytes.

Fix it by using subtraction instead.

Reproducer:
    xfs_io -f file -c "truncate $(((1<<63)-1))" -c "finsert 0 4096"

a39e596baa xfs: support for synchronous DAX faults
Return IOMAP_F_DIRTY from xfs_file_iomap_begin() when asked to prepare
blocks for writing and the inode is pinned, and has dirty fields other
than the timestamps.  In __xfs_filemap_fault() we then detect this case
and call dax_finish_sync_fault() to make sure all metadata is committed,
and to insert the page table entry.

Note that this will also dirty corresponding radix tree entry which is
what we want - fsync(2) will still provide data integrity guarantees for
applications not using userspace flushing. And applications using
userspace flushing can avoid calling fsync(2) and thus avoid the
performance overhead.

xfs_filemap_pfn_mkwrite() duplicates a lot of __xfs_filemap_fault().
It will also need to handle flushing for synchronous page faults. So
just make that function use __xfs_filemap_fault().

9a0dd42251 dax: Allow dax_iomap_fault() to return pfn
For synchronous page fault dax_iomap_fault() will need to return PFN
which will then need to be inserted into page tables after fsync()
completes. Add necessary parameter to dax_iomap_fault().

Apparently our current rwsem code doesn't like doing the trylock, then
lock for real scheme.  So change our read/write methods to just do the
trylock for the RWF_NOWAIT case.  This fixes a ~25% regression in
AIM7.

ee70daaba8 xfs: update i_size after unwritten conversion in dio completion
Since commit d531d91d69 ("xfs: always use unwritten extents for
direct I/O writes"), we start allocating unwritten extents for all
direct writes to allow appending aio in XFS.

But for dio writes that could extend file size we update the in-core
inode size first, then convert the unwritten extents to real
allocations at dio completion time in xfs_dio_write_end_io(). Thus a
racing direct read could see the new i_size and find the unwritten
extents first and read zeros instead of actual data, if the direct
writer also takes a shared iolock.

Fix it by updating the in-core inode size after the unwritten extent
conversion. To do this, introduce a new boolean argument to
xfs_iomap_write_unwritten() to tell if we want to update in-core
i_size or not.

91d25ba8a6 dax: use common 4k zero page for dax mmap reads
When servicing mmap() reads from file holes the current DAX code
allocates a page cache page of all zeroes and places the struct page
pointer in the mapping->page_tree radix tree.

This has three major drawbacks:

1) It consumes memory unnecessarily. For every 4k page that is read via
   a DAX mmap() over a hole, we allocate a new page cache page. This
   means that if you read 1GiB worth of pages, you end up using 1GiB of
   zeroed memory. This is easily visible by looking at the overall
   memory consumption of the system or by looking at /proc/[pid]/smaps:

	7f62e72b3000-7f63272b3000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12   /root/dax/data
	Size:            1048576 kB
	Rss:             1048576 kB
	Pss:             1048576 kB
	Shared_Clean:          0 kB
	Shared_Dirty:          0 kB
	Private_Clean:   1048576 kB
	Private_Dirty:         0 kB
	Referenced:      1048576 kB
	Anonymous:             0 kB
	LazyFree:              0 kB
	AnonHugePages:         0 kB
	ShmemPmdMapped:        0 kB
	Shared_Hugetlb:        0 kB
	Private_Hugetlb:       0 kB
	Swap:                  0 kB
	SwapPss:               0 kB
	KernelPageSize:        4 kB
	MMUPageSize:           4 kB
	Locked:                0 kB

2) It is slower than using a common zero page because each page fault
   has more work to do. Instead of just inserting a common zero page we
   have to allocate a page cache page, zero it, and then insert it. Here
   are the average latencies of dax_load_hole() as measured by ftrace on
   a random test box:

    Old method, using zeroed page cache pages:	3.4 us
    New method, using the common 4k zero page:	0.8 us

   This was the average latency over 1 GiB of sequential reads done by
   this simple fio script:

     [global]
     size=1G
     filename=/root/dax/data
     fallocate=none
     [io]
     rw=read
     ioengine=mmap

3) The fact that we had to check for both DAX exceptional entries and
   for page cache pages in the radix tree made the DAX code more
   complex.

Solve these issues by following the lead of the DAX PMD code and using a
common 4k zero page instead.  As with the PMD code we will now insert a
DAX exceptional entry into the radix tree instead of a struct page
pointer which allows us to remove all the special casing in the DAX
code.

Note that we do still pretty aggressively check for regular pages in the
DAX radix tree, especially where we take action based on the bits set in
the page.  If we ever find a regular page in our radix tree now that
most likely means that someone besides DAX is inserting pages (which has
happened lots of times in the past), and we want to find that out early
and fail loudly.

This solution also removes the extra memory consumption.  Here is that
same /proc/[pid]/smaps after 1GiB of reading from a hole with the new
code:

	7f2054a74000-7f2094a74000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12   /root/dax/data
	Size:            1048576 kB
	Rss:                   0 kB
	Pss:                   0 kB
	Shared_Clean:          0 kB
	Shared_Dirty:          0 kB
	Private_Clean:         0 kB
	Private_Dirty:         0 kB
	Referenced:            0 kB
	Anonymous:             0 kB
	LazyFree:              0 kB
	AnonHugePages:         0 kB
	ShmemPmdMapped:        0 kB
	Shared_Hugetlb:        0 kB
	Private_Hugetlb:       0 kB
	Swap:                  0 kB
	SwapPss:               0 kB
	KernelPageSize:        4 kB
	MMUPageSize:           4 kB
	Locked:                0 kB

Overall system memory consumption is similarly improved.

Another major change is that we remove dax_pfn_mkwrite() from our fault
flow, and instead rely on the page fault itself to make the PTE dirty
and writeable.  The following description from the patch adding the
vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite() call explains this a little more:

   "To be able to use the common 4k zero page in DAX we need to have our
    PTE fault path look more like our PMD fault path where a PTE entry
    can be marked as dirty and writeable as it is first inserted rather
    than waiting for a follow-up dax_pfn_mkwrite() =>
    finish_mkwrite_fault() call.

    Right now we can rely on having a dax_pfn_mkwrite() call because we
    can distinguish between these two cases in do_wp_page():

            case 1: 4k zero page => writable DAX storage
            case 2: read-only DAX storage => writeable DAX storage

    This distinction is made by via vm_normal_page(). vm_normal_page()
    returns false for the common 4k zero page, though, just as it does
    for DAX ptes. Instead of special casing the DAX + 4k zero page case
    we will simplify our DAX PTE page fault sequence so that it matches
    our DAX PMD sequence, and get rid of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() helper.
    We will instead use dax_iomap_fault() to handle write-protection
    faults.

    This means that insert_pfn() needs to follow the lead of
    insert_pfn_pmd() and allow us to pass in a 'mkwrite' flag. If
    'mkwrite' is set insert_pfn() will do the work that was previously
    done by wp_page_reuse() as part of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() call path"

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. If you're
  interested in the gory details, LWN has some good articles about this:
