"Features:
- Fixup and improve NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks
Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their
locking more robust when exported over NFS. Unfortunately, part of
that work caused both NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for
NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send lock notifications to clients
This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will
still poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock
It's important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their
kernel threads inside filesystem's file_lock implementations
because that can produce deadlocks. We used to make sure of this by
only trusting that posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking
lock calls asynchronously, so the lock managers would only setup
their file_lock requests for async callbacks if the filesystem did
not define its own lock() file operation
However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started
signalling this behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check
for also trusting posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so
now most filesystems no longer produce lock notifications when
exported over NFS
Fix this by using an fop_flag which greatly simplifies the problem
and grooms the way for future uses by both filesystems and lock
managers alike
- Add a sysctl to delete the dentry when a file is removed instead of
making it a negative dentry

Pull vfs multigrain timestamps from Christian Brauner:
"This is another try at implementing multigrain timestamps. This time
with significant help from the timekeeping maintainers to reduce the
performance impact.
Thomas provided a base branch that contains the required timekeeping
interfaces for the VFS. It serves as the base for the multi-grain
timestamp work:
- Multigrain timestamps allow the kernel to use fine-grained
timestamps when an inode's attributes is being actively observed
via ->getattr(). With this support, it's possible for a file to get
a fine-grained timestamp, and another modified after it to get a
coarse-grained stamp that is earlier than the fine-grained time. If
this happens then the files can appear to have been modified in
reverse order, which breaks VFS ordering guarantees.
To prevent this, a floor value is maintained for multigrain
timestamps. Whenever a fine-grained timestamp is handed out, record
it, and when later coarse-grained stamps are handed out, ensure
they are not earlier than that value. If the coarse-grained
timestamp is earlier than the fine-grained floor, return the floor
value instead.
The timekeeper changes add a static singleton atomic64_t into
timekeeper.c that is used to keep track of the latest fine-grained
time ever handed out. This is tracked as a monotonic ktime_t value
to ensure that it isn't affected by clock jumps. Because it is
updated at different times than the rest of the timekeeper object,
the floor value is managed independently of the timekeeper via a
cmpxchg() operation, and sits on its own cacheline.
Two new public timekeeper interfaces are added:
(1) ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64_mg() fills a timespec64 with the
later of the coarse-grained clock and the floor time
(2) ktime_get_real_ts64_mg() gets the fine-grained clock value,
and tries to swap it into the floor. A timespec64 is filled
with the result.
- The VFS has always used coarse-grained timestamps when updating the
ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing
filesystems to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around
1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting
via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of
changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to
help the client decide when to invalidate the cache. Even with
NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a
change attribute and are subject to the same problems with
timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with
timestamps (e.g backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would
improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the
underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata
updates.
This adds a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are
being actively queried. Use the (unused) top bit in
inode->i_ctime_nsec as a flag that indicates whether the current
timestamps have been queried via stat() or the like. When it's set,
we allow the kernel to use a fine-grained timestamp iff it's
necessary to make the ctime show a different value.
This solves the problem of being able to distinguish the timestamp
between updates, but introduces a new problem: it's now possible
for a file being changed to get a fine-grained timestamp. A file
that is altered just a bit later can then get a coarse-grained one
that appears older than the earlier fine-grained time. This
violates timestamp ordering guarantees.
This is where the earlier mentioned timkeeping interfaces help. A
global monotonic atomic64_t value is kept that acts as a timestamp
floor. When we go to stamp a file, we first get the latter of the
current floor value and the current coarse-grained time. If the
inode ctime hasn't been queried then we just attempt to stamp it
with that value.
If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse
time is later than the existing ctime. If it is, then we accept
that value. If it isn't, then we get a fine-grained time and try to
swap that into the global floor. Whether that succeeds or fails, we
take the resulting floor time, convert it to realtime and try to
swap that into the ctime.
We take the result of the ctime swap whether it succeeds or fails,
since either is just as valid.
Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag.
Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same
floor value as multigrain filesystems)"

fs: reduce pointer chasing in is_mgtime() test
The is_mgtime test checks whether the FS_MGTIME flag is set in the fstype. To get there from the inode though, we have to dereference 3 pointers. Add a new IOP_MGTIME flag, and have inode_init_always() set that flag when the fstype flag is set. Then, make is_mgtime test for IOP_MGTIME instead.

mm/list_lru: split the lock to per-cgroup scope
Currently, every list_lru has a per-node lock that protects adding,
deletion, isolation, and reparenting of all list_lru_one instances
belonging to this list_lru on this node. This lock contention is heavy
when multiple cgroups modify the same list_lru.
This lock can be split into per-cgroup scope to reduce contention.
To achieve this, we need a stable list_lru_one for every cgroup. This
commit adds a lock to each list_lru_one and introduced a helper function
lock_list_lru_of_memcg, making it possible to pin the list_lru of a memcg.
Then reworked the reparenting process.
Reparenting will switch the list_lru_one instances one by one. By locking
each instance and marking it dead using the nr_items counter, reparenting
ensures that all items in the corresponding cgroup (on-list or not,
because items have a stable cgroup, see below) will see the list_lru_one
switch synchronously.
Objcg reparent is also moved after list_lru reparent so items will have a
stable mem cgroup until all list_lru_one instances are drained.
The only caller that doesn't work the *_obj interfaces are direct calls to
list_lru_{add,del}. But it's only used by zswap and that's also based on
objcg, so it's fine.
This also changes the bahaviour of the isolation function when LRU_RETRY
or LRU_REMOVED_RETRY is returned, because now releasing the lock could
unblock reparenting and free the list_lru_one, isolation function will
have to return withoug re-lock the lru.

A file that is altered just a bit later can then get a coarse-grained one that appears older than the earlier fine-grained time. This violates timestamp ordering guarantees. To remedy this, keep a global monotonic atomic64_t value that acts as a timestamp floor. When we go to stamp a file, we first get the latter of the current floor value and the current coarse-grained time. If the inode ctime hasn't been queried then we just attempt to stamp it with that value. If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse time is later than the existing ctime. If it is, then we accept that value. If it isn't, then we get a fine-grained time and try to swap that into the global floor. Whether that succeeds or fails, we take the resulting floor time, convert it to realtime and try to swap that into the ctime. We take the result of the ctime swap whether it succeeds or fails, since either is just as valid. Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag. Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same floor value as multigrain filesystems). * patches from https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241002-mgtime-v10-0-d1c4717f5284@kernel.org: tmpfs: add support for multigrain timestamps btrfs: convert to multigrain timestamps ext4: switch to multigrain timestamps xfs: switch to multigrain timestamps Documentation: add a new file documenting multigrain timestamps fs: add percpu counters for significant multigrain timestamp events fs: tracepoints around multigrain timestamp events fs: handle delegated timestamps in setattr_copy_mgtime fs: have setattr_copy handle multigrain timestamps appropriately fs: add infrastructure for multigrain timestamps Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241002-mgtime-v10-0-d1c4717f5284@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> |

fs: handle delegated timestamps in setattr_copy_mgtime
An update to the inode ctime typically requires the latest clock value possible. The exception to this rule is when there is a nfsd write delegation and the server is proxying timestamps from the client. When nfsd gets a CB_GETATTR response, update the timestamp value in the inode to the values that the client is tracking. The client doesn't send a ctime value (since that's always determined by the exported filesystem), but it can send a mtime value. In the case where it does, update the ctime to a value commensurate with that instead of the current time. If ATTR_DELEG is set, then use ia_ctime value instead of setting the timestamp to the current time. With the addition of delegated timestamps, the server may receive a request to update only the atime, which doesn't involve a ctime update. Trust the ATTR_CTIME flag in the update and only update the ctime when it's set.

bcachefs: do not use PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM
Patch series "remove PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM" v3. This patch (of 2): bch2_new_inode relies on PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM to try to allocate a new inode to achieve GFP_NOWAIT semantic while holding locks. If this allocation fails it will drop locks and use GFP_NOFS allocation context. We would like to drop PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM because it is really dangerous to use if the caller doesn't control the full call chain with this flag set. E.g. if any of the function down the chain needed GFP_NOFAIL request the PF_MEMALLOC_NORECLAIM would override this and cause unexpected failure. While this is not the case in this particular case using the scoped gfp semantic is not really needed bacause we can easily pus the allocation context down the chain without too much clutter.

fs: add infrastructure for multigrain timestamps
The VFS has always used coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around 1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes. Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the client decide when to invalidate the cache. Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps (e.g backup applications). If fine-grained timestamps were always used, that would improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates. What is needed is a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are being actively queried. Use the (unused) top bit in inode->i_ctime_nsec as a flag that indicates whether the current timestamps have been queried via stat() or the like. When it's set, allow the update to use a fine-grained timestamp iff it's necessary to make the ctime show a different value. If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse time is later than the existing ctime. If it is, accept that value. If it isn't, then get a fine-grained timestamp and attempt to stamp the inode ctime with that value. If that races with another concurrent stamp, then abandon the update and take the new value without retrying. Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag. Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same floor value as multigrain filesystems).

bcachefs changes for 6.12-rc1
rcu_pending, btree key cache rework: this solves lock contenting in the key cache, eliminating the biggest source of the srcu lock hold time warnings, and drastically improving performance on some metadata heavy workloads - on multithreaded creates we're now 3-4x faster than xfs. We're now using an rhashtable instead of the system inode hash table; this is another significant performance improvement on multithreaded metadata workloads, eliminating more lock contention. for_each_btree_key_in_subvolume_upto(): new helper for iterating over keys within a specific subvolume, eliminating a lot of open coded "subvolume_get_snapshot()" and also fixing another source of srcu lock time warnings, by running each loop iteration in its own transaction (as the existing for_each_btree_key() does). More work on btree_trans locking asserts; we now assert that we don't hold btree node locks when trans->locked is false, which is important because we don't use lockdep for tracking individual btree node locks. Some cleanups and improvements in the bset.c btree node lookup code, from Alan. Rework of btree node pinning, which we use in backpointers fsck. The old hacky implementation, where the shrinker just skipped over nodes in the pinned range, was causing OOMs; instead we now use another shrinker with a much higher seeks number for pinned nodes. Rebalance now uses BCH_WRITE_ONLY_SPECIFIED_DEVS; this fixes an issue where rebalance would sometimes fall back to allocating from the full filesystem, which is not what we want when it's trying to move data to a specific target. Use __GFP_ACCOUNT, GFP_RECLAIMABLE for btree node, key cache allocations. Idmap mounts are now supported - Hongbo. Rename whiteouts are now supported - Hongbo. Erasure coding can now handle devices being marked as failed, or forcibly removed. We still need the evacuate path for erasure coding, but it's getting very close to ready for people to start using. Status, and when will we be taking off experimental: ---------------------------------------------------- Going by critical, user facing bugs getting found and fixed, we're nearly there. There are a couple key items that need to be finished before we can take off the experimental label: - The end-user experience is still pretty painful when the root filesystem needs a fsck; we need some form of limited self healing so that necessary repair gets run automatically. Errors (by type) are recorded in the superblock, so what we need to do next is convert remaining inconsistent() errors to fsck() errors (so that all runtime inconsistencies are logged in the superblock), and we need to go through the list of fsck errors and classify them by which fsck passes are needed to repair them. - We need comprehensive torture testing for all our repair paths, to shake out remaining bugs there. Thomas has been working on the tooling for this, so this is coming soonish. Slightly less critical items: - We need to improve the end-user experience for degraded mounts: right now, a degraded root filesystem means dropping to an initramfs shell or somehow inputting mount options manually (we don't want to allow degraded mounts without some form of user input, except on unattended servers) - we need the mount helper to prompt the user to allow mounting degraded, and make sure this works with systemd. - Scalabiity: we have users running 100TB+ filesystems, and that's effectively the limit right now due to fsck times. We have some reworks in the pipeline to address this, we're aiming to make petabyte sized filesystems practical. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEKnAFLkS8Qha+jvQrE6szbY3KbnYFAmbvHQoACgkQE6szbY3K bnYfAw/+IXQ43/O+Jzs0MLD7pKZnrlbHiX9FqYLazD40vWvkyRTQOwgTn8pVNhq3 4YWmtuZyqh036YC+bGqYFOhz20YetS5UdgbClpwmc99JJ6xsY+Z1mdpYfz5oq1Dw /pBX5iYb3rAt8UbQoZ8lcWM+GpT3GKJVgJuiLB2gRp9gATFesuh+0qU42oIVVVU5 4y3VhDBUmRk4XqEnk8hr7EIDMW0wWP3aptxYMZzeUPW0x1cEQ+FWrJo5D6lXv2KK dKv3MogvA0FFNi/eNexclPiu2pXtI7vrxT7umsxAICHLt41rWpV5ttE6io3bC4ZN qvwF9w2CpmKPKchFru9PO+QrWHVR7e6bphwf3TzyoKZ7tTn42f1RQlub7gBzI3bz ai5ZwGRIvpUoPVBj+CO+Ipog81uUb23Ma+gXg1akEFBOAb+o7I3KOOSBh5l+0cHj 3Ov1n0TLcsoO2cqoqfsV2QubW9YcWEZ76g5mKwQnUn8Cs6Fp0wWaIyK9aNkIAxcr tNDPGtH1gKitxUvju5i/LyI7y1UoeFvqJFee0VsU6QnixHn1ySzhePsJt6UEnIJT Ia3C96Igqu2mV9FxhfGHj/qi7TGjqqkZHa8+B610cDpgf15cx7Ps2DYjkuQMFCqZ Q3Q1o5De9roRq5xF2hLiYJCbzJKqd5ichFsBtLQuX572ICxbICg= =oVCy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'bcachefs-2024-09-21' of git://evilpiepirate.org/bcachefs Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet: - rcu_pending, btree key cache rework: this solves lock contenting in the key cache, eliminating the biggest source of the srcu lock hold time warnings, and drastically improving performance on some metadata heavy workloads - on multithreaded creates we're now 3-4x faster than xfs. - We're now using an rhashtable instead of the system inode hash table; this is another significant performance improvement on multithreaded metadata workloads, eliminating more lock contention. - for_each_btree_key_in_subvolume_upto(): new helper for iterating over keys within a specific subvolume, eliminating a lot of open coded "subvolume_get_snapshot()" and also fixing another source of srcu lock time warnings, by running each loop iteration in its own transaction (as the existing for_each_btree_key() does). - More work on btree_trans locking asserts; we now assert that we don't hold btree node locks when trans->locked is false, which is important because we don't use lockdep for tracking individual btree node locks. - Some cleanups and improvements in the bset.c btree node lookup code, from Alan. - Rework of btree node pinning, which we use in backpointers fsck.

vfs: fix race between evice_inodes() and find_inode()&iput()
Hi, all
Recently I noticed a bug[1] in btrfs, after digged it into
and I believe it'a race in vfs.
Let's assume there's a inode (ie ino 261) with i_count 1 is
called by iput(), and there's a concurrent thread calling
generic_shutdown_super().
cpu0: cpu1:
iput() // i_count is 1
->spin_lock(inode)
->dec i_count to 0
->iput_final() generic_shutdown_super()
->__inode_add_lru() ->evict_inodes()
// cause some reason[2] ->if (atomic_read(inode->i_count)) continue;
// return before // inode 261 passed the above check
// list_lru_add_obj() // and then schedule out
->spin_unlock()
// note here: the inode 261
// was still at sb list and hash list,
// and I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE was not been set
btrfs_iget()
// after some function calls
->find_inode()
// found the above inode 261
->spin_lock(inode)
// check I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE
// and passed
->__iget()
->spin_unlock(inode) // schedule back
->spin_lock(inode)
// check (I_NEW|I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE) flags,
// passed and set I_FREEING
iput() ->spin_unlock(inode)
->spin_lock(inode) ->evict()
// dec i_count to 0
->iput_final()
->spin_unlock()
->evict()
Now, we have two threads simultaneously evicting
the same inode, which may trigger the BUG(inode->i_state & I_CLEAR)
statement both within clear_inode() and iput().
To fix the bug, recheck the inode->i_count after holding i_lock.
Because in the most scenarios, the first check is valid, and
the overhead of spin_lock() can be reduced.
If there is any misunderstanding, please let me know, thanks.

vfs: drop one lock trip in evict()
Most commonly neither I_LRU_ISOLATING nor I_SYNC are set, but the stock kernel takes a back-to-back relock trip to check for them.

vfs: Don't evict inode under the inode lru traversing context
The inode reclaiming process(See function prune_icache_sb) collects all
reclaimable inodes and mark them with I_FREEING flag at first, at that
time, other processes will be stuck if they try getting these inodes
(See function find_inode_fast), then the reclaiming process destroy the
inodes by function dispose_list(). Some filesystems(eg. ext4 with
ea_inode feature, ubifs with xattr) may do inode lookup in the inode
evicting callback function, if the inode lookup is operated under the
inode lru traversing context, deadlock problems may happen.
Case 1: In function ext4_evict_inode(), the ea inode lookup could happen
if ea_inode feature is enabled, the lookup process will be stuck
under the evicting context like this:
1. File A has inode i_reg and an ea inode i_ea
2. getfattr(A, xattr_buf) // i_ea is added into lru // lru->i_ea
3. Then, following three processes running like this:
PA PB
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
shrink_slab
prune_dcache_sb
// i_reg is added into lru, lru->i_ea->i_reg
prune_icache_sb
list_lru_walk_one
inode_lru_isolate
i_ea->i_state |= I_FREEING // set inode state
inode_lru_isolate
__iget(i_reg)
spin_unlock(&i_reg->i_lock)
spin_unlock(lru_lock)
rm file A
i_reg->nlink = 0
iput(i_reg) // i_reg->nlink is 0, do evict
ext4_evict_inode
ext4_xattr_delete_inode
ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all
ext4_xattr_inode_iget
ext4_iget(i_ea->i_ino)
iget_locked
find_inode_fast
__wait_on_freeing_inode(i_ea) ----→ AA deadlock
dispose_list // cannot be executed by prune_icache_sb
wake_up_bit(&i_ea->i_state)
Case 2: In deleted inode writing function ubifs_jnl_write_inode(), file
deleting process holds BASEHD's wbuf->io_mutex while getting the
xattr inode, which could race with inode reclaiming process(The
reclaiming process could try locking BASEHD's wbuf->io_mutex in
inode evicting function), then an ABBA deadlock problem would
happen as following:
1. File A has inode ia and a xattr(with inode ixa), regular file B has
inode ib and a xattr.
2. getfattr(A, xattr_buf) // ixa is added into lru // lru->ixa
3. Then, following three processes running like this:
PA PB PC
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
shrink_slab
prune_dcache_sb
// ib and ia are added into lru, lru->ixa->ib->ia
prune_icache_sb
list_lru_walk_one
inode_lru_isolate
ixa->i_state |= I_FREEING // set inode state
inode_lru_isolate
__iget(ib)
spin_unlock(&ib->i_lock)
spin_unlock(lru_lock)
rm file B
ib->nlink = 0
rm file A
iput(ia)
ubifs_evict_inode(ia)
ubifs_jnl_delete_inode(ia)
ubifs_jnl_write_inode(ia)
make_reservation(BASEHD) // Lock wbuf->io_mutex
ubifs_iget(ixa->i_ino)
iget_locked
find_inode_fast
__wait_on_freeing_inode(ixa)
| iput(ib) // ib->nlink is 0, do evict
| ubifs_evict_inode
| ubifs_jnl_delete_inode(ib)
↓ ubifs_jnl_write_inode
ABBA deadlock ←-----make_reservation(BASEHD)
dispose_list // cannot be executed by prune_icache_sb
wake_up_bit(&ixa->i_state)
Fix the possible deadlock by using new inode state flag I_LRU_ISOLATING
to pin the inode in memory while inode_lru_isolate() reclaims its pages
instead of using ordinary inode reference. This way inode deletion
cannot be triggered from inode_lru_isolate() thus avoiding the deadlock.
evict() is made to wait for I_LRU_ISOLATING to be cleared before
proceeding with inode cleanup.

inode: clarify what's locked

vfs: handle __wait_on_freeing_inode() and evict() race
Lockless hash lookup can find and lock the inode after it gets the
I_FREEING flag set, at which point it blocks waiting for teardown in
evict() to finish.
However, the flag is still set even after evict() wakes up all waiters.
This results in a race where if the inode lock is taken late enough, it
can happen after both hash removal and wakeups, meaning there is nobody
to wake the racing thread up.
This worked prior to RCU-based lookup because the entire ordeal was
synchronized with the inode hash lock.
Since unhashing requires the inode lock, we can safely check whether it
happened after acquiring it.

Pull vfs inode / dentry updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains smaller performance improvements to inodes and dentries:
inode:
- Add rcu based inode lookup variants.
They avoid one inode hash lock acquire in the common case thereby
significantly reducing contention. We already support RCU-based
operations but didn't take advantage of them during inode
insertion.
Callers of iget_locked() get the improvement without any code
changes. Callers that need a custom callback can switch to
iget5_locked_rcu() as e.g., did btrfs.
With 20 threads each walking a dedicated 1000 dirs * 1000 files
directory tree to stat(2) on a 32 core + 24GB ram vm:
before: 3.54s user 892.30s system 1966% cpu 45.549 total
after: 3.28s user 738.66s system 1955% cpu 37.932 total (-16.7%)
Long-term we should pick up the effort to introduce more
fine-grained locking and possibly improve on the currently used
hash implementation.
- Start zeroing i_state in inode_init_always() instead of doing it in
individual filesystems.
This allows us to remove an unneeded lock acquire in new_inode()
and not burden individual filesystems with this.
dcache:
- Move d_lockref out of the area used by RCU lookup to avoid
cacheline ping poing because the embedded name is sharing a
cacheline with d_lockref.
- Fix dentry size on 32bit with CONFIG_SMP=y so it does actually end
up with 128 bytes in total"

vfs: partially sanitize i_state zeroing on inode creation
new_inode used to have the following: spin_lock(&inode_lock); inodes_stat.nr_inodes++; list_add(&inode->i_list, &inode_in_use); list_add(&inode->i_sb_list, &sb->s_inodes); inode->i_ino = ++last_ino; inode->i_state = 0; spin_unlock(&inode_lock); over time things disappeared, got moved around or got replaced (global inode lock with a per-inode lock), eventually this got reduced to: spin_lock(&inode->i_lock); inode->i_state = 0; spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock); But the lock acquire here does not synchronize against anyone. Additionally iget5_locked performs i_state = 0 assignment without any locks to begin with, the two combined look confusing at best. It looks like the current state is a leftover which was not cleaned up. Ideally it would be an invariant that i_state == 0 to begin with, but achieving that would require dealing with all filesystem alloc handlers one by one. In the meantime drop the misleading locking and move i_state zeroing to inode_init_always so that others don't need to deal with it by hand.

vfs: add rcu-based find_inode variants for iget ops
This avoids one inode hash lock acquire in the common case on inode
creation, in effect significantly reducing contention.
On the stock kernel said lock is typically taken twice:
1. once to check if the inode happens to already be present
2. once to add it to the hash
The back-to-back lock/unlock pattern is known to degrade performance
significantly, which is further exacerbated if the hash is heavily
populated (long chains to walk, extending hold time). Arguably hash
sizing and hashing algo need to be revisited, but that's beyond the
scope of this patch.
With the acquire from step 1 eliminated with RCU lookup throughput
increases significantly at the scale of 20 cores (benchmark results at
the bottom).
So happens the hash already supports RCU-based operation, but lookups on
inode insertions didn't take advantage of it.
This of course has its limits as the global lock is still a bottleneck.
There was a patchset posted which introduced fine-grained locking[1] but
it appears staled. Apart from that doubt was expressed whether a
handrolled hash implementation is appropriate to begin with, suggesting
replacement with rhashtables. Nobody committed to carrying [1] across
the finish line or implementing anything better, thus the bandaid below.
iget_locked consumers (notably ext4) get away without any changes
because inode comparison method is built-in.
iget5_locked consumers pass a custom callback. Since removal of locking
adds more problems (inode can be changing) it's not safe to assume all
filesystems happen to cope. Thus iget5_locked_rcu gets added, requiring
manual conversion of interested filesystems.
In order to reduce code duplication find_inode and find_inode_fast grow
an argument indicating whether inode hash lock is held, which is passed
down in case sleeping is necessary. They always rcu_read_lock, which is
redundant but harmless. Doing it conditionally reduces readability for
no real gain that I can see. RCU-alike restrictions were already put on
callbacks due to the hash spinlock being held.
Benchmarking:
There is a real cache-busting workload scanning millions of files in
parallel (it's a backup appliance), where the initial lookup is
guaranteed to fail resulting in the two lock acquires on stock kernel
(and one with the patch at hand).
Implemented below is a synthetic benchmark providing the same behavior.
[I shall note the workload is not running on Linux, instead it was
causing trouble elsewhere. Benchmark below was used while addressing
said problems and was found to adequately represent the real workload.]
Total real time fluctuates by 1-2s.
With 20 threads each walking a dedicated 1000 dirs * 1000 files
directory tree to stat(2) on a 32 core + 24GB RAM vm:
ext4 (needed mkfs.ext4 -N 24000000):
before: 3.77s user 890.90s system 1939% cpu 46.118 total
after: 3.24s user 397.73s system 1858% cpu 21.581 total (-53%)
That's 20 million files to visit, while the machine can only cache about
15 million at a time (obtained from ext4_inode_cache object count in
/proc/slabinfo). Since each terminal inode is only visited once per run
this amounts to 0% hit ratio for the dentry cache and the hash table
(there are however hits for the intermediate directories).
On repeated runs the kernel caches the last ~15 mln, meaning there is ~5
mln of uncached inodes which are going to be visited first, evicting the
previously cached state as it happens.
Lack of hits can be trivially verified with bpftrace, like so:
bpftrace -e 'kretprobe:find_inode_fast { @[kstack(), retval != 0] = count(); }'\
-c "/bin/sh walktrees /testfs 20"
Best ran more than once.
Expected results after "warmup":

That is 20 million calls for the initial lookup and 20 million after
allocating a new inode, all of them failing to return a value != 0
(i.e., they are returning NULL -- no match found).
Of course aborting the benchmark in the middle and starting it again (or
messing with the state in other ways) is going to alter these results.

This reduces CPU usage for buffered write workloads on e.g., xfs on systems with lots of cores (Christoph) - Record processed bytes in iomap_iter() trace event (Kassey) - Extend iomap_writepage_map() trace event after Christoph's ->map_block() changes to map mutliple blocks at once (Zhang) * tag 'vfs-6.9.iomap' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (22 commits) iomap: Add processed for iomap_iter iomap: add pos and dirty_len into trace_iomap_writepage_map block, fs: Restore the per-bio/request data lifetime fields fs: Propagate write hints to the struct block_device inode fs: Move enum rw_hint into a new header file fs: Split fcntl_rw_hint() fs: Verify write lifetime constants at compile time fs: Fix rw_hint validation iomap: pass the length of the dirty region to ->map_blocks iomap: map multiple blocks at a time iomap: submit ioends immediately iomap: factor out a iomap_writepage_map_block helper iomap: only call mapping_set_error once for each failed bio iomap: don't chain bios iomap: move the iomap_sector sector calculation out of iomap_add_to_ioend iomap: clean up the iomap_alloc_ioend calling convention iomap: move all remaining per-folio logic into iomap_writepage_map iomap: factor out a iomap_writepage_handle_eof helper iomap: move the PF_MEMALLOC check to iomap_writepages iomap: move the io_folios field out of struct iomap_ioend ... |

fs: use inode_set_ctime_to_ts to set inode ctime to current time
The function inode_set_ctime_current simply retrieves the current time and assigns it to the field __i_ctime without any alterations. Therefore, it is possible to set ctime to now directly using inode_set_ctime_to_ts Signed-off-by: Nguyen Dinh Phi <phind.uet@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240228173031.3208743-1-phind.uet@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> |

fs: improve dump_mapping() robustness

The root cause is that, one thread is doing page migration, and we will
use the target page's ->mapping field to save 'anon_vma' pointer between
page unmap and page move, and now the target page is locked and refcount
is 1.
Currently, there is another stress-ng thread performing memory hotplug,
attempting to offline the target page that is being migrated. It discovers
that the refcount of this target page is 1, preventing the offline operation,
thus proceeding to dump the page. However, page_mapping() of the target
page may return an incorrect file mapping to crash the system in dump_mapping(),
since the target page->mapping only saves 'anon_vma' pointer without setting
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON flag.
The page migration issue has been fixed by commit

sysctl-6.8-rc1
To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/ directory only.
The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as those patches
are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect also the removal of the
no longer needed check for procname == NULL.
Let us recap the purpose of this work:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to see further
work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the struct ctl_table.
Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have suggested
for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for v6.9-rc1 I look forward
to seeing him sent you a pull request for further sysctl changes. This also
removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer as he has moved on to other projects and
has had no time to help at all.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual fses.
Features:
- Add Jan Kara as VFS reviewer
- Show correct device and inode numbers in proc/<pid>/maps for vma
files on stacked filesystems. This is now easily doable thanks to
the backing file work from the last cycles. This comes with
selftests
Cleanups:
- Remove a redundant might_sleep() from wait_on_inode()
- Initialize pointer with NULL, not 0
- Clarify comment on access_override_creds()
- Rework and simplify eventfd_signal() and eventfd_signal_mask()
helpers
- Process aio completions in batches to avoid needless wakeups
- Completely decouple struct mnt_idmap from namespaces. We now only
keep the actual idmapping around and don't stash references to
namespaces
- Reformat maintainer entries to indicate that a given subsystem
belongs to fs/
- Simplify fput() for files that were never opened
- Get rid of various pointless file helpers
- Rename various file helpers
- Rename struct file members after SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU switch from
last cycle
- Make relatime_need_update() return bool
- Use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_USER when allocating superblocks
- Replace deprecated ida_simple_*() calls with their current ida_*()
counterparts
Fixes:
- Fix comments on user namespace id mapping helpers. They aren't
kernel doc comments so they shouldn't be using /**
- s/Retuns/Returns/g in various places
- Add missing parameter documentation on can_move_mount_beneath()
- Rename i_mapping->private_data to i_mapping->i_private_data
- Fix a false-positive lockdep warning in pipe_write() for watch
queues
- Improve __fget_files_rcu() code generation to improve performance
- Only notify writer that pipe resizing has finished after setting
pipe->max_usage otherwise writers are never notified that the pipe
has been resized and hang
- Fix some kernel docs in hfsplus
- s/passs/pass/g in various places
- Fix kernel docs in ntfs
- Fix kcalloc() arguments order reported by gcc 14
- Fix uninitialized value in reiserfs"

fs: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link : https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/) Remove sentinel elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the register sysctl call that expects a size. Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <j.granados@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.

list_lru: allow explicit memcg and NUMA node selection
Patch series "workload-specific and memory pressure-driven zswap writeback", v8. There are currently several issues with zswap writeback: 1. There is only a single global LRU for zswap, making it impossible to perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg under memory pressure cannot determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up writing pages from other memcgs. This issue has been previously observed in practice and mitigated by simply disabling memcg-initiated shrinking: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u But this solution leaves a lot to be desired, as we still do not have an avenue for an memcg to free up its own memory locked up in the zswap pool. 2. We only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is hit. This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages). This patch series solves these issues by separating the global zswap LRU into per-memcg and per-NUMA LRUs, and performs workload-specific (i.e memcg- and NUMA-aware) zswap writeback under memory pressure. The new shrinker does not have any parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a per-memcg basis. As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds. This patch (of 6): The interface of list_lru is based on the assumption that the list node and the data it represents belong to the same allocated on the correct node/memcg. While this assumption is valid for existing slab objects LRU such as dentries and inodes, it is undocumented, and rather inflexible for certain potential list_lru users (such as the upcoming zswap shrinker and the THP shrinker). It has caused us a lot of issues during our development. This patch changes list_lru interface so that the caller must explicitly specify numa node and memcg when adding and removing objects. The old list_lru_add() and list_lru_del() are renamed to list_lru_add_obj() and list_lru_del_obj(), respectively. It also extends the list_lru API with a new function, list_lru_putback, which undoes a previous list_lru_isolate call. Unlike list_lru_add, it does not increment the LRU node count (as list_lru_isolate does not decrement the node count). list_lru_putback also allows for explicit memcg and NUMA node selection.

kill lock_two_inodes()
There's only one caller left (lock_two_nondirectories()), and it needs less complexity. Fold lock_two_inodes() in there and simplify. Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> |

fs: Rename mapping private members
It is hard to find where mapping->private_lock, mapping->private_list and mapping->private_data are used, due to private_XXX being a relatively common name for variables and structure members in the kernel. To fit with other members of struct address_space, rename them all to have an i_ prefix. Tested with an allmodconfig build.
