d0164adc89 mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd
__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".

Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.

This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.

This patch then converts a number of sites

o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
  pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.

o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
  into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
  are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.

o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
  helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
  checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
  positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
  is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
  flag manipulations.

o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
  and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.

The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.

The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

4327ba52af ext4, jbd2: ensure entering into panic after recording an error in superblock
If a EXT4 filesystem utilizes JBD2 journaling and an error occurs, the
journaling will be aborted first and the error number will be recorded
into JBD2 superblock and, finally, the system will enter into the
panic state in "errors=panic" option.  But, in the rare case, this
sequence is little twisted like the below figure and it will happen
that the system enters into panic state, which means the system reset
in mobile environment, before completion of recording an error in the
journal superblock. In this case, e2fsck cannot recognize that the
filesystem failure occurred in the previous run and the corruption
wouldn't be fixed.

ext4_handle_error()

33d14975e5 jbd2: fix checkpoint list cleanup
Unlike comments and expectation of callers journal_clean_one_cp_list()
returned 1 not only if it freed the transaction but also if it freed
some buffers in the transaction. That could make
__jbd2_journal_clean_checkpoint_list() skip processing
t_checkpoint_io_list and continue with processing the next transaction.
This is mostly a cosmetic issue since the only result is we can
sometimes free less memory than we could. But it's still worth fixing.
Fix journal_clean_one_cp_list() to return 1 only if the transaction was
really freed.

8595798ca3 jbd2: gate checksum calculations on crc driver presence, not sb flags
Change the journal's checksum functions to gate on whether or not the
crc32c driver is loaded, and gate the loading on the superblock bits.
This prevents a journal crash if someone loads a journal in no-csum
mode and then randomizes the superblock, thus flipping on the feature
bits.

6d3ec14d70 jbd2: limit number of reserved credits
Currently there is no limitation on number of reserved credits we can
ask for. If we ask for more reserved credits than 1/2 of maximum
transaction size, or if total number of credits exceeds the maximum
transaction size per operation (which is currently only possible with
the former) we will spin forever in start_this_handle().

Fix this by adding this limitation at the start of start_this_handle().

This patch also removes the credit limitation 1/2 of maximum transaction
size, since we really only want to limit the number of reserved credits.
There is not much point to limit the credits if there is still space in
the journal.

This accidentally also fixes the online resize, where due to the
limitation of the journal credits we're unable to grow file systems with
1k block size and size between 16M and 32M. It has been partially fixed
by 2c869b262a, but not entirely.

Thanks Jan Kara for helping me getting the correct fix.

841df7df19 jbd2: avoid infinite loop when destroying aborted journal
Commit 6f6a6fda29 "jbd2: fix ocfs2 corrupt when updating journal
superblock fails" changed jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() to return EIO
when the journal is aborted. That makes logic in
jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() bail out which is fine, except that
jbd2_journal_destroy() expects jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() to always make
a progress in cleaning the journal. Without it jbd2_journal_destroy()
just loops in an infinite loop.

Fix jbd2_journal_destroy() to cleanup journal checkpoint lists of
jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() fails with error.

564bc40252 ext4, jbd2: add REQ_FUA flag when recording an error in the superblock
When an error condition is detected, an error status should be recorded into
superblocks of EXT4 or JBD2. However, the write request is submitted now
without REQ_FUA flag, even in "barrier=1" mode, which is followed by
panic() function in "errors=panic" mode. On mobile devices which make
whole system reset as soon as kernel panic occurs, this write request
containing an error flag will disappear just from storage cache without
written to the physical cells. Therefore, when next start, even forever,
the error flag cannot be shown in both superblocks, and e2fsck cannot fix
the filesystem problems automatically, unless e2fsck is executed in
force checking mode.

7b506b1035 jbd2: get rid of open coded allocation retry loop
insert_revoke_hash does an open coded endless allocation loop if
journal_oom_retry is true. It doesn't implement any allocation fallback
strategy between the retries, though. The memory allocator doesn't know
about the never fail requirement so it cannot potentially help to move
on with the allocation (e.g. use memory reserves).

Get rid of the retry loop and use __GFP_NOFAIL instead. We will lose the
debugging message but I am not sure it is anyhow helpful.

Do the same for journal_alloc_journal_head which is doing a similar
thing.

6f6a6fda29 jbd2: fix ocfs2 corrupt when updating journal superblock fails
If updating journal superblock fails after journal data has been
flushed, the error is omitted and this will mislead the caller as a
normal case.  In ocfs2, the checkpoint will be treated successfully
and the other node can get the lock to update. Since the sb_start is
still pointing to the old log block, it will rewrite the journal data
during journal recovery by the other node. Thus the new updates will
be overwritten and ocfs2 corrupts.  So in above case we have to return
the error, and ocfs2_commit_cache will take care of the error and
prevent the other node to do update first.  And only after recovering
journal it can do the new updates.

de92c8caf1 jbd2: speedup jbd2_journal_get_[write|undo]_access()
jbd2_journal_get_write_access() and jbd2_journal_get_create_access() are
frequently called for buffers that are already part of the running
transaction - most frequently it is the case for bitmaps, inode table
blocks, and superblock. Since in such cases we have nothing to do, it is
unfortunate we still grab reference to journal head, lock the bh, lock
bh_state only to find out there's nothing to do.

Improving this is a bit subtle though since until we find out journal
head is attached to the running transaction, it can disappear from under
us because checkpointing / commit decided it's no longer needed. We deal
with this by protecting journal_head slab with RCU. We still have to be
careful about journal head being freed & reallocated within slab and
about exposing journal head in consistent state (in particular
b_modified and b_frozen_data must be in correct state before we allow
user to touch the buffer).

6ccaf3e2f3 jbd2: revert must-not-fail allocation loops back to GFP_NOFAIL
This basically reverts 47def82672 (jbd2: Remove __GFP_NOFAIL from jbd2
layer). The deprecation of __GFP_NOFAIL was a bad choice because it led
to open coding the endless loop around the allocator rather than
removing the dependency on the non failing allocation. So the
deprecation was a clear failure and the reality tells us that
__GFP_NOFAIL is not even close to go away.

It is still true that __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are generally discouraged
and new uses should be evaluated and an alternative (pre-allocations or
reservations) should be considered but it doesn't make any sense to lie
the allocator about the requirements. Allocator can take steps to help
making a progress if it knows the requirements.

e531d0bceb jbd2: fix r_count overflows leading to buffer overflow in journal recovery
The journal revoke block recovery code does not check r_count for
sanity, which means that an evil value of r_count could result in
the kernel reading off the end of the revoke table and into whatever
garbage lies beyond.  This could crash the kernel, so fix that.

However, in testing this fix, I discovered that the code to write
out the revoke tables also was not correctly checking to see if the
block was full -- the current offset check is fine so long as the
revoke table space size is a multiple of the record size, but this
is not true when either journal_csum_v[23] are set.

9d50659406 ext4: fix NULL pointer dereference when journal restart fails
Currently when journal restart fails, we'll have the h_transaction of
the handle set to NULL to indicate that the handle has been effectively
aborted. We handle this situation quietly in the jbd2_journal_stop() and just
free the handle and exit because everything else has been done before we
attempted (and failed) to restart the journal.

Unfortunately there are a number of problems with that approach
introduced with commit

41a5b91319 "jbd2: invalidate handle if jbd2_journal_restart()
fails"

First of all in ext4 jbd2_journal_stop() will be called through
__ext4_journal_stop() where we would try to get a hold of the superblock
by dereferencing h_transaction which in this case would lead to NULL
pointer dereference and crash.

In addition we're going to free the handle regardless of the refcount
which is bad as well, because others up the call chain will still
reference the handle so we might potentially reference already freed
memory.

Moreover it's expected that we'll get aborted handle as well as detached
handle in some of the journalling function as the error propagates up
the stack, so it's unnecessary to call WARN_ON every time we get
detached handle.

And finally we might leak some memory by forgetting to free reserved
handle in jbd2_journal_stop() in the case where handle was detached from
the transaction (h_transaction is NULL).

Fix the NULL pointer dereference in __ext4_journal_stop() by just
calling jbd2_journal_stop() quietly as suggested by Jan Kara. Also fix
the potential memory leak in jbd2_journal_stop() and use proper
handle refcounting before we attempt to free it to avoid use-after-free
issues.

And finally remove all WARN_ON(!transaction) from the code so that we do
not get random traces when something goes wrong because when journal
restart fails we will get to some of those functions.

32f3869184 jbd2: fix regression where we fail to initialize checksum seed when loading
When we're enabling journal features, we cannot use the predicate
jbd2_journal_has_csum_v2or3() because we haven't yet set the sb
feature flag fields!  Moreover, we just finished loading the shash
driver, so the test is unnecessary; calculate the seed always.

Without this patch, we fail to initialize the checksum seed the first
time we turn on journal_checksum, which means that all journal blocks
written during that first mount are corrupt.  Transactions written
after the second mount will be fine, since the feature flag will be
set in the journal superblock.  xfstests generic/{034,321,322} are the
regression tests.

(This is important for 3.18.)

cc97f1a7c7 jbd2: avoid pointless scanning of checkpoint lists
Yuanhan has reported that when he is running fsync(2) heavy workload
creating new files over ramdisk, significant amount of time is spent in
__jbd2_journal_clean_checkpoint_list() trying to clean old transactions
(but they cannot be cleaned up because flusher hasn't yet checkpointed
those buffers). The workload can be generated by:
  fs_mark -d /fs/ram0/1 -D 2 -N 2560 -n 1000000 -L 1 -S 1 -s 4096

Reduce the amount of scanning by stopping to scan the transaction list
once we find a transaction that cannot be checkpointed. Note that this
way of cleaning is still enough to keep freeing space in the journal
after fully checkpointed transactions.

This was confusing both to humans and to smatch (which erronously
complained that the lock was taken twice).

Folding __process_buffer() to the caller allows us to simplify the

db9ee22036 jbd2: fix descriptor block size handling errors with journal_csum
It turns out that there are some serious problems with the on-disk
format of journal checksum v2.  The foremost is that the function to
calculate descriptor tag size returns sizes that are too big.  This
causes alignment issues on some architectures and is compounded by the
fact that some parts of jbd2 use the structure size (incorrectly) to
determine the presence of a 64bit journal instead of checking the
feature flags.

Therefore, introduce journal checksum v3, which enlarges the
descriptor block tag format to allow for full 32-bit checksums of
journal blocks, fix the journal tag function to return the correct
sizes, and fix the jbd2 recovery code to use feature flags to
determine 64bitness.

Add a few function helpers so we don't have to open-code quite so
many pieces.

Switching to a 16-byte block size was found to increase journal size
overhead by a maximum of 0.1%, to convert a 32-bit journal with no
checksumming to a 32-bit journal with checksum v3 enabled.

743162013d sched: Remove proliferation of wait_on_bit() action functions
The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().

So:
 Rename wait_on_bit and        wait_on_bit_lock to
        wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
 to make it explicit that they need an action function.

 Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
 which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
 a standard one.
 The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
 based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
 function.

 All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
 can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
 action functions have been discarded.
 wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
 event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
 interpolate their own error code as appropriate.

The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"

The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.

A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack.  So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).

Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS.  CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.

0bfea8118d jbd2: minimize region locked by j_list_lock in jbd2_journal_forget()
It's not needed until we start trying to modifying fields in the
journal_head which are protected by j_list_lock.

d2eb0b9989 jbd2: check jh->b_transaction without taking j_list_lock
jh->b_transaction is adequately protected for reading by the
jbd_lock_bh_state(bh), so we don't need to take j_list_lock in
__journal_try_to_free_buffer().

d4e839d4a9 jbd2: add transaction to checkpoint list earlier
We don't otherwise need j_list_lock during the rest of commit phase
#7, so add the transaction to the checkpoint list at the very end of
commit phase #6.  This allows us to drop j_list_lock earlier, which is
a good thing since it is a super hot lock.
