Pull XFS support for shared data extents from Dave Chinner:
"This is the second part of the XFS updates for this merge cycle. This
pullreq contains the new shared data extents feature for XFS.
Given the complexity and size of this change I am expecting - like the
addition of reverse mapping last cycle - that there will be some
follow-up bug fixes and cleanups around the -rc3 stage for issues that
I'm sure will show up once the code hits a wider userbase.
What it is:
At the most basic level we are simply adding shared data extents to
XFS - i.e. a single extent on disk can now have multiple owners. To do
this we have to add new on-disk features to both track the shared
extents and the number of times they've been shared. This is done by
the new "refcount" btree that sits in every allocation group. When we
share or unshare an extent, this tree gets updated.
Along with this new tree, the reverse mapping tree needs to be updated
to track each owner or a shared extent. This also needs to be updated
ever share/unshare operation. These interactions at extent allocation
and freeing time have complex ordering and recovery constraints, so
there's a significant amount of new intent-based transaction code to
ensure that operations are performed atomically from both the runtime
and integrity/crash recovery perspectives.
We also need to break sharing when writes hit a shared extent - this
is where the new copy-on-write implementation comes in. We allocate
new storage and copy the original data along with the overwrite data
into the new location. We only do this for data as we don't share
metadata at all - each inode has it's own metadata that tracks the
shared data extents, the extents undergoing CoW and it's own private
extents.
Of course, being XFS, nothing is simple - we use delayed allocation
for CoW similar to how we use it for normal writes. ENOSPC is a
significant issue here - we build on the reservation code added in
4.8-rc1 with the reverse mapping feature to ensure we don't get
spurious ENOSPC issues part way through a CoW operation. These
mechanisms also help minimise fragmentation due to repeated CoW
operations. To further reduce fragmentation overhead, we've also
introduced a CoW extent size hint, which indicates how large a region
we should allocate when we execute a CoW operation.
With all this functionality in place, we can hook up .copy_file_range,
.clone_file_range and .dedupe_file_range and we gain all the
capabilities of reflink and other vfs provided functionality that
enable manipulation to shared extents. We also added a fallocate mode
that explicitly unshares a range of a file, which we implemented as an
explicit CoW of all the shared extents in a file.
As such, it's a huge chunk of new functionality with new on-disk
format features and internal infrastructure. It warns at mount time as
an experimental feature and that it may eat data (as we do with all
new on-disk features until they stabilise). We have not released
userspace suport for it yet - userspace support currently requires
download from Darrick's xfsprogs repo and build from source, so the
access to this feature is really developer/tester only at this point.
Initial userspace support will be released at the same time the kernel
with this code in it is released.
The new code causes 5-6 new failures with xfstests - these aren't
serious functional failures but things the output of tests changing
slightly due to perturbations in layouts, space usage, etc. OTOH,
we've added 150+ new tests to xfstests that specifically exercise this
new functionality so it's got far better test coverage than any
functionality we've previously added to XFS.
Darrick has done a pretty amazing job getting us to this stage, and
special mention also needs to go to Christoph (review, testing,
improvements and bug fixes) and Brian (caught several intricate bugs
during review) for the effort they've also put in.

Trim CoW reservations made on behalf of a cowextsz hint if they get too
old or we run low on quota, so long as we don't have dirty data awaiting
writeback or directio operations in progress.
Garbage collection of the cowextsize extents are kept separate from
prealloc extent reaping because setting the CoW prealloc lifetime to a
(much) higher value than the regular prealloc extent lifetime has been
useful for combatting CoW fragmentation on VM hosts where the VMs
experience bursty write behaviors and we can keep the utilization ratios
low enough that we don't start to run out of space. IOWs, it benefits
us to keep the CoW fork reservations around for as long as we can unless
we run out of blocks or hit inode reclaim.

Create a per-inode extent size allocator hint for copy-on-write. This
hint is separate from the existing extent size hint so that CoW can
take advantage of the fragmentation-reducing properties of extent size
hints without disabling delalloc for regular writes.
The extent size hint that's fed to the allocator during a copy on
write operation is the greater of the cowextsize and regular extsize
hint.
During reflink, if we're sharing the entire source file to the entire
destination file and the destination file doesn't already have a
cowextsize hint, propagate the source file's cowextsize hint to the
destination file.
Furthermore, zero the bulkstat buffer prior to setting the fields
so that we don't copy kernel memory contents into userspace.

Log recovery will iget an inode to replay BUI items and iput the inode
when it's done. Unfortunately, if the inode was unlinked, the iput
will see that i_nlink == 0 and decide to truncate & free the inode,
which prevents us from replaying subsequent BUIs. We can't skip the
BUIs because we have to replay all the redo items to ensure that
atomic operations complete.
Since unlinked inode recovery will reap the inode anyway, we can
safely introduce a new inode flag to indicate that an inode is in this
'unlinked recovery' state and should not be auto-reaped in the
drop_inode path.

To avoid clearing of capabilities or security related extended

This is rather straightforward except for xfs_set_mode() function which
does not have dentry easily available. Luckily that function does not

The last thing we do before using call_rcu() on an xfs_inode to be
freed is mark it as invalid. This means there is a window between
when we know for certain that the inode is going to be freed and
when we do actually mark it as "freed".
This is important in the context of RCU lookups - we can look up the
inode, find that it is valid, and then use it as such not realising
that it is in the final stages of being freed.
As such, mark the inode as being invalid the moment we know it is
going to be reclaimed. This can be done while we still hold the
XFS_ILOCK_EXCL and the flush lock in xfs_inode_reclaim, meaning that
it occurs well before we remove it from the radix tree, and that
the i_flags_lock, the XFS_ILOCK and the inode flush lock all act as
synchronisation points for detecting that an inode is about to go
away.
For defensive purposes, this allows us to add a further check to
xfs_iflush_cluster to ensure we skip inodes that are being freed
after we grab the XFS_ILOCK_SHARED and the flush lock - we know that
if the inode number if valid while we have these locks held we know
that it has not progressed through reclaim to the point where it is
clean and is about to be freed.

When a failure due to an inode buffer occurs, the error handling
fails to abort the inode writeback correctly. This can result in the
inode being reclaimed whilst still in the AIL, leading to
use-after-free situations as well as filesystems that cannot be

the inode flush being aborted correctly.

And in that replicated code, an ASSERT() test of an

error = xfs_attr_thing(&args);
if (!error) {
error = xfs_bmap_finish(&args.trans, args.flist,

If the first xfs_attr_thing() failed, we'd skip the xfs_bmap_finish,

Fix this up by moving the committed state internal to xfs_bmap_finish,
and add a new inode argument. If an inode is passed in, it is passed
through to __xfs_trans_roll() and joined to the transaction there if
the transaction was committed.
xfs_qm_dqalloc() was a little unique in that it called bjoin rather
than ijoin, but as Dave points out we can detect the committed state
but checking whether (*tpp != tp).

Rather than just being able to turn DAX on and off via a mount
option, some applications may only want to enable DAX for certain
performance critical files in a filesystem.
This patch introduces a new inode flag to enable DAX in the v3 inode
di_flags2 field. It adds support for setting and clearing flags in
the di_flags2 field via the XFS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl, and sets the
S_DAX inode flag appropriately when it is seen.
When this flag is set on a directory, it acts as an "inherit flag".
That is, inodes created in the directory will automatically inherit
the on-disk inode DAX flag, enabling administrators to set up
directory heirarchies that automatically use DAX. Setting this flag
on an empty root directory will make the entire filesystem use DAX
by default.

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

This patch modifies the stats counting macros and the callers
to those macros to properly increment, decrement, and add-to
the xfs stats counts. The counts for global and per-fs stats
are correctly advanced, and cleared by writing a "1" to the
corresponding clear file.
global counts: /sys/fs/xfs/stats/stats
per-fs counts: /sys/fs/xfs/sda*/stats/stats
global clear: /sys/fs/xfs/stats/stats_clear
per-fs clear: /sys/fs/xfs/sda*/stats/stats_clear
[dchinner: cleaned up macro variables, removed CONFIG_FS_PROC around
stats structures and macros. ]

SO, now if we enable lockdep without enabling CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG,
the lockdep annotations throw a warning because the assert that uses
the lockdep define is not built in:
fs/xfs/xfs_inode.c:367:1: warning: 'xfs_lockdep_subclass_ok' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
xfs_lockdep_subclass_ok(
So now we need to create an ifdef mess to sort this all out, because
we need to handle all the combinations of CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=[y|n],
CONFIG_XFS_WARNING=[y|n] and CONFIG_LOCKDEP=[y|n] appropriately.

Fix CONFIG_LOCKDEP=n build, because asserts I put in to ensure we
aren't overrunning lockdep subclasses in commit 0952c81 ("xfs:
clean up inode lockdep annotations") use a define that doesn't
exist when CONFIG_LOCKDEP=n
Only check the subclass limits when lockdep is actually enabled.

The recent change to the readdir locking made in 40194ec ("xfs:
reinstate the ilock in xfs_readdir") for CXFS directory sanity was
probably the wrong thing to do. Deep in the readdir code we
can take page faults in the filldir callback, and so taking a page
fault while holding an inode ilock creates a new set of locking
issues that lockdep warns all over the place about.
The locking order for regular inodes w.r.t. page faults is io_lock
-> pagefault -> mmap_sem -> ilock. The directory readdir code now
triggers ilock -> page fault -> mmap_sem. While we cannot deadlock
at this point, it inverts all the locking patterns that lockdep
normally sees on XFS inodes, and so triggers lockdep. We worked
around this with commit 93a8614 ("xfs: fix directory inode iolock
lockdep false positive"), but that then just moved the lockdep
warning to deeper in the page fault path and triggered on security
inode locks. Fixing the shmem issue there just moved the lockdep
reports somewhere else, and now we are getting false positives from
filesystem freezing annotations getting confused.
Further, if we enter memory reclaim in a readdir path, we now get
lockdep warning about potential deadlocks because the ilock is held
when we enter reclaim. This, again, is different to a regular file
in that we never allow memory reclaim to run while holding the ilock
for regular files. Hence lockdep now throws
ilock->kmalloc->reclaim->ilock warnings.
Basically, the problem is that the ilock is being used to protect
the directory data and the inode metadata, whereas for a regular
file the iolock protects the data and the ilock protects the
metadata. From the VFS perspective, the i_mutex serialises all
accesses to the directory data, and so not holding the ilock for
readdir doesn't matter. The issue is that CXFS doesn't access
directory data via the VFS, so it has no "data serialisaton"
mechanism. Hence we need to hold the IOLOCK in the correct places to
provide this low level directory data access serialisation.
The ilock can then be used just when the extent list needs to be
read, just like we do for regular files. The directory modification
code can take the iolock exclusive when the ilock is also taken,
and this then ensures that readdir is correct excluded while
modifications are in progress.

Lockdep annotations are a maintenance nightmare. Locking has to be
modified to suit the limitations of the annotations, and we're
always having to fix the annotations because they are unable to
express the complexity of locking heirarchies correctly.
So, next up, we've got more issues with lockdep annotations for
inode locking w.r.t. XFS_LOCK_PARENT:
- lockdep classes are exclusive and can't be ORed together
to form new classes.
- IOLOCK needs multiple PARENT subclasses to express the
changes needed for the readdir locking rework needed to
stop the endless flow of lockdep false positives involving
readdir calling filldir under the ILOCK.
- there are only 8 unique lockdep subclasses available,
so we can't create a generic solution.
IOWs we need to treat the 3-bit space available to each lock type
differently:
- IOLOCK uses xfs_lock_two_inodes(), so needs:
- at least 2 IOLOCK subclasses
- at least 2 IOLOCK_PARENT subclasses
- MMAPLOCK uses xfs_lock_two_inodes(), so needs:
- at least 2 MMAPLOCK subclasses
- ILOCK uses xfs_lock_inodes with up to 5 inodes, so needs:
- at least 5 ILOCK subclasses
- one ILOCK_PARENT subclass
- one RTBITMAP subclass
- one RTSUM subclass
For the IOLOCK, split the space into two sets of subclasses.
For the MMAPLOCK, just use half the space for the one subclass to
match the non-parent lock classes of the IOLOCK.
For the ILOCK, use 0-4 as the ILOCK subclasses, 5-7 for the
remaining individual subclasses.
Because they are now all different, modify xfs_lock_inumorder() to
handle the nested subclasses, and to assert fail if passed an
invalid subclass. Further, annotate xfs_lock_inodes() to assert fail
if an invalid combination of lock primitives and inode counts are
passed that would result in a lockdep subclass annotation overflow.

If a failure occurs after the bmap free list is populated and before
xfs_bmap_finish() completes successfully (which returns a partial
list on failure), the bmap free list must be cancelled. Otherwise,
the extent items on the list are never freed and a memory leak
occurs.
Several random error paths throughout the code suffer this problem.
Fix these up such that xfs_bmap_cancel() is always called on error.
