Convert XFS to use the new iomap based multipage write path. This involves
implementing the ->iomap_begin and ->iomap_end methods, and switching the
buffered file write, page_mkwrite and xfs_iozero paths to the new iomap
helpers.
With this change __xfs_get_blocks will never be used for buffered writes,
and the code handling them can be removed.

- Until now, dax has been disabled if media errors were found on
any device. This enables the use of DAX in the presence of these
errors by making all sector-aligned zeroing go through the driver.
- The driver (already) has the ability to clear errors on writes that
are sent through the block layer using 'DSMs' defined in ACPI 6.1.
Other misc changes:
- When mounting DAX filesystems, check to make sure the partition

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Factor xfs_seek_hole_data into an unlocked helper which takes

Also allow specification of "end" - the vfs lseek interface is
defined such that any offset past eof/i_size shall return -ENXIO,
but we will use this for quota code which does not maintain i_size,
and we want to be able to SEEK_DATA past i_size as well. So the
lseek path can send in i_size, and the quota code can determine

Doing a splice read (generic/249) generates a lockdep splat because
we recursively lock the inode iolock in this path:
SyS_sendfile64
do_sendfile
do_splice_direct
splice_direct_to_actor
do_splice_to
xfs_file_splice_read <<<<<< lock here
default_file_splice_read
vfs_readv
do_readv_writev
do_iter_readv_writev
xfs_file_read_iter <<<<<< then here
The issue here is that for DAX inodes we need to avoid the page
cache path and hence simply push it into the normal read path.
Unfortunately, we can't tell down at xfs_file_read_iter() whether we
are being called from the splice path and hence we cannot avoid the
locking at this layer. Hence we simply have to drop the inode
locking at the higher splice layer for DAX.

xfs: timestamp updates cause excessive fdatasync log traffic
Sage Weil reported that a ceph test workload was writing to the
log on every fdatasync during an overwrite workload. Event tracing
showed that the only metadata modification being made was the
timestamp updates during the write(2) syscall, but fdatasync(2)
is supposed to ignore them. The key observation was that the
transactions in the log all looked like this:
INODE: #regs: 4 ino: 0x8b flags: 0x45 dsize: 32
And contained a flags field of 0x45 or 0x85, and had data and
attribute forks following the inode core. This means that the
timestamp updates were triggering dirty relogging of previously
logged parts of the inode that hadn't yet been flushed back to
disk.
There are two parts to this problem. The first is that XFS relogs
dirty regions in subsequent transactions, so it carries around the
fields that have been dirtied since the last time the inode was
written back to disk, not since the last time the inode was forced
into the log.
The second part is that on v5 filesystems, the inode change count
update during inode dirtying also sets the XFS_ILOG_CORE flag, so
on v5 filesystems this makes a timestamp update dirty the entire
inode.
As a result when fdatasync is run, it looks at the dirty fields in
the inode, and sees more than just the timestamp flag, even though
the only metadata change since the last fdatasync was just the
timestamps. Hence we force the log on every subsequent fdatasync
even though it is not needed.
To fix this, add a new field to the inode log item that tracks
changes since the last time fsync/fdatasync forced the log to flush
the changes to the journal. This flag is updated when we dirty the
inode, but we do it before updating the change count so it does not
carry the "core dirty" flag from timestamp updates. The fields are
zeroed when the inode is marked clean (due to writeback/freeing) or
when an fsync/datasync forces the log. Hence if we only dirty the
timestamps on the inode between fsync/fdatasync calls, the fdatasync
will not trigger another log force.

The code initially committed didn't have the same checks for write
faults as the dax_pmd_fault code and hence treats all faults as
write faults. We can get read faults through this path because they
is no pmd_mkwrite path for write faults similar to the normal page
fault path. Hence we need to ensure that we only do c/mtime updates
on write faults, and freeze protection is unnecessary for read
faults.

->pfn_mkwrite support is needed so that when a page with allocated
backing store takes a write fault we can check that the fault has
not raced with a truncate and is pointing to a region beyond the
current end of file.
This also allows us to update the timestamp on the inode, too, which
fixes a generic/080 failure.

For DAX, we are now doing block zeroing during allocation. This
means we no longer need a special DAX fault IO completion callback
to do unwritten extent conversion. Because mmap never extends the
file size (it SEGVs the process) we don't need a callback to update
the file size, either. Hence we can remove the completion callbacks
from the __dax_fault and __dax_mkwrite calls.

Both direct IO and DAX pass an offset and count into get_blocks that
will overflow a s64 variable when an IO goes into the last supported
block in a file (i.e. at offset 2^63 - 1FSB bytes). This can be seen
from the tracing:
xfs_get_blocks_alloc: [...] offset 0x7ffffffffffff000 count 4096
xfs_gbmap_direct: [...] offset 0x7ffffffffffff000 count 4096
xfs_gbmap_direct_none:[...] offset 0x7ffffffffffff000 count 4096
0x7ffffffffffff000 + 4096 = 0x8000000000000000, and hence that
overflows the s64 offset and we fail to detect the need for a
filesize update and an ioend is not allocated.
This is *mostly* avoided for direct IO because such extending IOs
occur with full block allocation, and so the "IS_UNWRITTEN()" check
still evaluates as true and we get an ioend that way. However, doing
single sector extending IOs to this last block will expose the fact
that file size updates will not occur after the first allocating
direct IO as the overflow will then be exposed.
There is one further complexity: the DAX page fault path also
exposes the same issue in block allocation. However, page faults
cannot extend the file size, so in this case we want to allocate the
block but do not want to allocate an ioend to enable file size
update at IO completion. Hence we now need to distinguish between
the direct IO patch allocation and dax fault path allocation to
avoid leaking ioend structures.

XFS supports and typically allows concurrent asynchronous direct I/O
submission to a single file. One exception to the rule is that file
extending dio writes that start beyond the current EOF (e.g.,
potentially create a hole at EOF) require exclusive I/O access to the
file. This is because such writes must zero any pre-existing blocks
beyond EOF that are exposed by virtue of now residing within EOF as a
result of the write about to be submitted.
Before EOF zeroing can occur, the current file i_size must be stabilized
to avoid data corruption. In this scenario, XFS upgrades the iolock to
exclude any further I/O submission, waits on in-flight I/O to complete
to ensure i_size is up to date (i_size is updated on dio write
completion) and restarts the various checks against the state of the
file. The problem is that this protection sequence is triggered only
when the iolock is currently held shared. While this is true for async
dio in most cases, the caller may upgrade the lock in advance based on
arbitrary circumstances with respect to EOF zeroing. For example, the
iolock is always acquired exclusively if the start offset is not block
aligned. This means that even though the iolock is already held
exclusive for such I/Os, pending I/O is not drained and thus EOF zeroing
can occur based on an unstable i_size.
This problem has been reproduced as guest data corruption in virtual
machines with file-backed qcow2 virtual disks hosted on an XFS
filesystem. The virtual disks must be configured with aio=native mode
and the must not be truncated out to the maximum file size (as some virt
managers will do).
Update xfs_file_aio_write_checks() to unconditionally drain in-flight
dio before EOF zeroing can occur. Rather than trigger the wait based on
iolock state, use a new flag and upgrade the iolock when necessary. Note
that this results in a full restart of the inode checks even when the
iolock was already held exclusive when technically it is only required
to recheck i_size. This should be a rare enough occurrence that it is
preferable to keep the code simple rather than create an alternate
restart jump target.

Filesystems are responsible to manage file coherency between the page
cache and direct I/O. The generic dio code flushes dirty pages over the
range of a dio to ensure that the dio read or a future buffered read
returns the correct data. XFS has generally followed this pattern,
though traditionally has flushed and invalidated the range from the
start of the I/O all the way to the end of the file. This changed after
the following commit:
7d4ea3ce xfs: use ranged writeback and invalidation for direct IO
... as the full file flush was no longer necessary to deal with the
strange post-eof delalloc issues that were since fixed. Unfortunately,
we have since received complaints about performance degradation due to
the increased exclusive iolock cycles (which locks out parallel dio
submission) that occur when a file has cached pages. This does not occur
on filesystems that use the generic code as it also does not incorporate
locking.
The exclusive iolock is acquired any time the inode mapping has cached
pages, regardless of whether they reside in the range of the I/O or not.
If not, the flush/inval calls do no work and the lock was cycled for no
reason.
Under consideration of the cost of the exclusive iolock, update the dio
read and write handlers to flush and invalidate the entire mapping when
cached pages exist. In most cases, this increases the cost of the
initial flush sequence but eliminates the need for further lock cycles
and flushes so long as the workload does not actively mix direct and
buffered I/O. This also more closely matches historical behavior and
performance characteristics that users have come to expect.

When modifying the patch series to handle the XFS MMAP_LOCK nesting
of page faults, I botched the conversion of the read page fault
path, and so it is only every calling through the page cache. Re-add
the necessary __dax_fault() call for such files.
Because the get_blocks callback on read faults may not set up the
mapping buffer correctly to allow unwritten extent completion to be
run, we need to allow callers of __dax_fault() to pass a null
complete_unwritten() callback. The DAX code always zeros the
unwritten page when it is read faulted so there are no stale data
exposure issues with not doing the conversion. The only downside
will be the potential for increased CPU overhead on repeated read
faults of the same page. If this proves to be a problem, then the
filesystem needs to fix it's get_block callback and provide a
convert_unwritten() callback to the read fault path.

- any dirty transaction needs XFS_TRANS_ABORT to be properly canceled,
and XFS_TRANS_ABORT is a noop for a transaction that is not dirty.
- any transaction with a permanent log reservation needs
XFS_TRANS_RELEASE_LOG_RES to be properly canceled, and passing

generic_file_direct_write() does all sorts of things to make DIO
work "sorta ok" with mixed buffered IO workloads. We already do
most of this work in xfs_file_aio_dio_write() because of the locking
requirements, so there's only a couple of things it does for us.
The first thing is that it does a page cache invalidation after the
->direct_IO callout. This can easily be added to the XFS code.
The second thing it does is that if data was written, it updates the
iov_iter structure to reflect the data written, and then does EOF
size updates if necessary. For XFS, these EOF size updates are now
not necessary, as we do them safely and race-free in IO completion
context. That leaves just the iov_iter update, and that's also moved
to the XFS code.
Therefore we don't need to call generic_file_direct_write() and in
doing so remove redundant buffered writeback and page cache
invalidation calls from the DIO submission path. We also remove a
racy EOF size update, and make the DIO submission code in XFS much

When we are doing AIO DIO writes, the IOLOCK only provides an IO
submission barrier. When we need to do EOF zeroing, we need to ensure
that no other IO is in progress and all pending in-core EOF updates
have been completed. This requires us to wait for all outstanding
AIO DIO writes to the inode to complete and, if necessary, run their
EOF updates.
Once all the EOF updates are complete, we can then restart
xfs_file_aio_write_checks() while holding the IOLOCK_EXCL, knowing
that EOF is up to date and we have exclusive IO access to the file
so we can run EOF block zeroing if we need to without interference.
This gives EOF zeroing the same exclusivity against other IO as we
provide truncate operations.

xfs_end_io_direct_write() can race with other IO completions when
updating the in-core inode size. The IO completion processing is not
serialised for direct IO - they are done either under the
IOLOCK_SHARED for non-AIO DIO, and without any IOLOCK held at all
during AIO DIO completion. Hence the non-atomic test-and-set update
of the in-core inode size is racy and can result in the in-core
inode size going backwards if the race if hit just right.
If the inode size goes backwards, this can trigger the EOF zeroing
code to run incorrectly on the next IO, which then will zero data
that has successfully been written to disk by a previous DIO.
To fix this bug, we need to serialise the test/set updates of the
in-core inode size. This first patch introduces locking around the
relevant updates and checks in the DIO path. Because we now have an
ioend in xfs_end_io_direct_write(), we know exactly then we are
doing an IO that requires an in-core EOF update, and we know that
they are not running in interrupt context. As such, we do not need to
use irqsave() spinlock variants to protect against interrupts while
the lock is held.
Hence we can use an existing spinlock in the inode to do this
serialisation and so not need to grow the struct xfs_inode just to
work around this problem.
This patch does not address the test/set EOF update in
generic_file_write_direct() for various reasons - that will be done
as a followup with separate explanation.

A new fsync vs power fail test in xfstests indicated that XFS can
have unreliable data consistency when doing extending truncates that
require block zeroing. The blocks beyond EOF get zeroed in memory,
but we never force those changes to disk before we run the
transaction that extends the file size and exposes those blocks to
userspace. This can result in the blocks not being correctly zeroed
after a crash.
Because in-memory behaviour is correct, tools like fsx don't pick up
any coherency problems - it's not until the filesystem is shutdown
or the system crashes after writing the truncate transaction to the
journal but before the zeroed data in the page cache is flushed that
the issue is exposed.
Fix this by also flushing the dirty data in memory region between
the old size and new size when we've found blocks that need zeroing
in the truncate process.

which is a big simplification of the VM, and which gets rid of a *lot*
of random cruft and special cases because we no longer support the
non-linear mappings that it used.
From a user interface perspective, nothing has changed, because the
remap_file_pages() syscall still exists, it's just done by emulating the
old behavior by creating a lot of individual small mappings instead of
one non-linear one.
The emulation is slower than the old "native" non-linear mappings, but
nobody really uses or cares about remap_file_pages(), and simplifying
the VM is a big advantage.

xfs is using truncate_pagecache_range to invalidate the page cache
during DIO reads. This is different from the other filesystems who
only invalidate pages during DIO writes.
truncate_pagecache_range is meant to be used when we are freeing the
underlying data structs from disk, so it will zero any partial
ranges in the page. This means a DIO read can zero out part of the
page cache page, and it is possible the page will stay in cache.
buffered reads will find an up to date page with zeros instead of
the data actually on disk.

Speculative preallocation and and the associated throttling metrics
assume we're working with large files on large filesystems. Users have
reported inefficiencies in these mechanisms when we happen to be dealing
with large files on smaller filesystems. This can occur because while
prealloc throttling is aggressive under low free space conditions, it is
not active until we reach 5% free space or less.
For example, a 40GB filesystem has enough space for several files large
enough to have multi-GB preallocations at any given time. If those files
are slow growing, they might reserve preallocation for long periods of
time as well as avoid the background scanner due to frequent
modification. If a new file is written under these conditions, said file
has no access to this already reserved space and premature ENOSPC is
imminent.
To handle this scenario, modify the buffered write ENOSPC handling and
retry sequence to invoke an eofblocks scan. In the smaller filesystem
scenario, the eofblocks scan resets the usage of preallocation such that
when the 5% free space threshold is met, throttling effectively takes
over to provide fair and efficient preallocation until legitimate
ENOSPC.
The eofblocks scan is selective based on the nature of the failure. For
example, an EDQUOT failure in a particular quota will use a filtered
scan for that quota. Because we don't know which quota might have caused
an allocation failure at any given time, we include each applicable
quota determined to be under low free space conditions in the scan.
