2013-02-27hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S | for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S | ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S | ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S | inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S | sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S | for_each_host(a, - b, c) S | for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] [akpm@linux-foudnation.org: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paul E.

2013-02-27idr: remove MAX_IDR_MASK and move left MAX_IDR_* into idr.cTejun Heo
MAX_IDR_MASK is another weirdness in the idr interface. As idr covers whole positive integer range, it's defined as 0x7fffffff or INT_MAX. Its usage in idr_find(), idr_replace() and idr_remove() is bizarre. They basically mask off the sign bit and operate on the rest, so if the caller, by accident, passes in a negative number, the sign bit will be masked off and the remaining part will be used as if that was the input, which is worse than crashing. The constant is visible in idr.h and there are several users in the kernel. * drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c:i2c_add_numbered_adapter() Basically used to test if adap->nr is a negative number which isn't -1 and returns -EINVAL if so. idr_alloc() already has negative @start checking (w/ WARN_ON_ONCE), so this can go away. * drivers/infiniband/core/cm.c:cm_alloc_id() drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/cm.c:id_map_alloc() Used to wrap cyclic @start. Can be replaced with max(next, 0). Note that this type of cyclic allocation using idr is buggy. These are prone to spurious -ENOSPC failure after the first wraparound. * fs/super.c:get_anon_bdev() The ID allocated from ida is masked off before being tested whether it's inside valid range. ida allocated ID can never be a negative number and the masking is unnecessary. Update idr_*() functions to fail with -EINVAL when negative @id is specified and update other MAX_IDR_MASK users as described above. This leaves MAX_IDR_MASK without any user, remove it and relocate other MAX_IDR_* constants to lib/idr.c.

2012-08-04vfs: kill write_super and sync_supersArtem Bityutskiy
Finally we can kill the 'sync_supers' kernel thread along with the '->write_super()' superblock operation because all the users are gone. Now every file-system is supposed to self-manage own superblock and its dirty state. The nice thing about killing this thread is that it improves power management. Indeed, 'sync_supers' is a source of monotonic system wake-ups - it woke up every 5 seconds no matter what - even if there were no dirty superblocks and even if there were no file-systems using this service (e.g., btrfs and journalled ext4 do not need it). So it was wasting power most of the time. And because the thread was in the core of the kernel, all systems had to have it. So I am quite happy to make it go away. Interestingly, this thread is a left-over from the pdflush kernel thread which was a self-forking kernel thread responsible for all the write-back in old Linux kernels. It was turned into per-block device BDI threads, and 'sync_supers' was a left-over. Thus, R.I.P, pdflush as well.

09f363c7 ("vmscan: fix shrinker callback bug in fs/super.c") fixed a shrinker callback which was returning -1 when nr_to_scan is zero, which caused excessive slab scanning. But 635697c6 ("vmscan: fix initial shrinker size handling") fixed the problem, again so we can freely return -1 although nr_to_scan is zero.

2012-07-31fs: Improve filesystem freezing handlingJan Kara
vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

2012-01-17wake up s_wait_unfrozen when ->freeze_fs failsKazuya Mio
dd slept infinitely when fsfeeze failed because of EIO. To fix this problem, if ->freeze_fs fails, freeze_super() wakes up the tasks waiting for the filesystem to become unfrozen. When s_frozen isn't SB_UNFROZEN in __generic_file_aio_write(), the function sleeps until FITHAW ioctl wakes up s_wait_unfrozen. However, if ->freeze_fs fails, s_frozen is set to SB_UNFROZEN and then freeze_super() returns an error number. In this case, FITHAW ioctl returns EINVAL because s_frozen is already SB_UNFROZEN. There is no way to wake up s_wait_unfrozen, so __generic_file_aio_write() sleeps infinitely. Signed-off-by: Kazuya Mio <k-mio@sx.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-01-06vfs: protect remounting superblock read-onlyMiklos Szeredi
Currently remouting superblock read-only is racy in a major way. With the per mount read-only infrastructure it is now possible to prevent most races, which this patch attempts. Before starting the remount read-only, iterate through all mounts belonging to the superblock and if none of them have any pending writes, set sb->s_readonly_remount. This indicates that remount is in progress and no further write requests are allowed. If the remount succeeds set MS_RDONLY and reset s_readonly_remount. If the remounting is unsuccessful just reset s_readonly_remount. This can result in transient EROFS errors, despite the fact the remount failed. Unfortunately hodling off writes is difficult as remount itself may touch the filesystem (e.g. through load_nls()) which would deadlock. A later patch deals with delayed writes due to nlink going to zero.

unfortunately, just checking MS_BORN after having grabbed ->s_umount in sget() is not enough; places that pick superblock from a list and grab s_umount shared need the same check in addition to checking for ->s_root; otherwise three-way race between failing mount, sget() and such list-walker can leave us with list-walker coming *second*, when temporary active ref grabbed by sget() (to be dropped when sget() notices that original mount has failed by checking MS_BORN) has lead to deactivate_locked_super() from failing ->mount() *not* doing ->kill_sb() and just releasing ->s_umount. Once sget() gets through and notices that MS_BORN had never been set it will drop the active ref and fs will be shut down and kicked out of all lists, but it's too late for something like sync_supers().

2011-07-20vfs: increase shrinker batch sizeDave Chinner
Now that the per-sb shrinker is responsible for shrinking 2 or more caches, increase the batch size to keep econmies of scale for shrinking each cache. Increase the shrinker batch size to 1024 objects. To allow for a large increase in batch size, add a conditional reschedule to prune_icache_sb() so that we don't hold the LRU spin lock for too long. This mirrors the behaviour of the __shrink_dcache_sb(), and allows us to increase the batch size without needing to worry about problems caused by long lock hold times. To ensure that filesystems using the per-sb shrinker callouts don't cause problems, document that the object freeing method must reschedule appropriately inside loops.

2011-07-20superblock: add filesystem shrinker operationsDave Chinner
Now we have a per-superblock shrinker implementation, we can add a filesystem specific callout to it to allow filesystem internal caches to be shrunk by the superblock shrinker. Rather than perpetuate the multipurpose shrinker callback API (i.e. nr_to_scan == 0 meaning "tell me how many objects freeable in the cache), two operations will be added. The first will return the number of objects that are freeable, the second is the actual shrinker call.

2011-07-20superblock: introduce per-sb cache shrinker infrastructureDave Chinner
With context based shrinkers, we can implement a per-superblock shrinker that shrinks the caches attached to the superblock. We currently have global shrinkers for the inode and dentry caches that split up into per-superblock operations via a coarse proportioning method that does not batch very well. The global shrinkers also have a dependency - dentries pin inodes - so we have to be very careful about how we register the global shrinkers so that the implicit call order is always correct. With a per-sb shrinker callout, we can encode this dependency directly into the per-sb shrinker, hence avoiding the need for strictly ordering shrinker registrations. We also have no need for any proportioning code for the shrinker subsystem already provides this functionality across all shrinkers. Allowing the shrinker to operate on a single superblock at a time means that we do less superblock list traversals and locking and reclaim should batch more effectively. This should result in less CPU overhead for reclaim and potentially faster reclaim of items from each filesystem.

2011-07-20superblock: move pin_sb_for_writeback() to fs/super.cDave Chinner
The per-sb shrinker has the same requirement as the writeback threads of ensuring that the superblock is usable and pinned for the time it takes to run the work. Both need to take a passive reference to the sb, take a read lock on the s_umount lock and then only continue if an unmount is not in progress. pin_sb_for_writeback() does this exactly, so move it to fs/super.c and rename it to grab_super_passive() and exporting it via fs/internal.h for all the VFS code to be able to use.

2011-07-20inode: move to per-sb LRU locksDave Chinner
With the inode LRUs moving to per-sb structures, there is no longer a need for a global inode_lru_lock. The locking can be made more fine-grained by moving to a per-sb LRU lock, isolating the LRU operations of different filesytsems completely from each other.

2011-07-20inode: Make unused inode LRU per superblockDave Chinner
The inode unused list is currently a global LRU. This does not match the other global filesystem cache - the dentry cache - which uses per-superblock LRU lists. Hence we have related filesystem object types using different LRU reclaimation schemes. To enable a per-superblock filesystem cache shrinker, both of these caches need to have per-sb unused object LRU lists. Hence this patch converts the global inode LRU to per-sb LRUs. The patch only does rudimentary per-sb propotioning in the shrinker infrastructure, as this gets removed when the per-sb shrinker callouts are introduced later on.

2011-07-12fixlet: Remove fs_excl from struct task.Justin TerAvest
fs_excl is a poor man's priority inheritance for filesystems to hint to the block layer that an operation is important. It was never clearly specified, not widely adopted, and will not prevent starvation in many cases (like across cgroups). fs_excl was introduced with the time sliced CFQ IO scheduler, to indicate when a process held FS exclusive resources and thus needed a boost. It doesn't cover all file systems, and it was never fully complete. Lets kill it. Signed-off-by: Justin TerAvest <teravest@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
2011-06-03more conservative S_NOSEC handlingAl Viro
Caching "we have already removed suid/caps" was overenthusiastic as merged. On network filesystems we might have had suid/caps set on another client, silently picked by this client on revalidate, all of that *without* clearing the S_NOSEC flag. AFAICS, the only reasonably sane way to deal with that is * new superblock flag; unless set, S_NOSEC is not going to be set. * local block filesystems set it in their ->mount() (more accurately, mount_bdev() does, so does btrfs ->mount(), users of mount_bdev() other than local block ones clear it) * if any network filesystem (or a cluster one) wants to use S_NOSEC, it'll need to set MS_NOSEC in sb->s_flags *AND* take care to clear S_NOSEC when inode attribute changes are picked from other clients. It's not an earth-shattering hole (anybody that can set suid on another client will almost certainly be able to write to the file before doing that anyway), but it's a bug that needs fixing.

2011-05-26mm/fs: add hooks to support cleancacheDan Magenheimer
This fourth patch of eight in this cleancache series provides the core hooks in VFS for: initializing cleancache per filesystem; capturing clean pages reclaimed by page cache; attempting to get pages from cleancache before filesystem read; and ensuring coherency between pagecache, disk, and cleancache. Note that the placement of these hooks was stable from 2.6.18 to 2.6.38; a minor semantic change was required due to a patchset in 2.6.39. All hooks become no-ops if CONFIG_CLEANCACHE is unset, or become a check of a boolean global if CONFIG_CLEANCACHE is set but no cleancache "backend" has claimed cleancache_ops.

2011-02-11vfs: call rcu_barrier after ->kill_sb()Boaz Harrosh
In commit fa0d7e3de6d6 ("fs: icache RCU free inodes"), we use rcu free inode instead of freeing the inode directly. It causes a crash when we rmmod immediately after we umount the volume[1]. So we need to call rcu_barrier after we kill_sb so that the inode is freed before we do rmmod. The idea is inspired by Aneesh Kumar. rcu_barrier will wait for all callbacks to end before preceding. The original patch was done by Tao Ma, but synchronize_rcu() is not enough here. 1. http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=129680863330185&w=2 Tested-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2011-01-16sanitize vfsmount refcounting changesAl Viro
Instead of splitting refcount between (per-cpu) mnt_count and (SMP-only) mnt_longrefs, make all references contribute to mnt_count again and keep track of how many are longterm ones. Accounting rules for longterm count: * 1 for each fs_struct.root.mnt * 1 for each fs_struct.pwd.mnt * 1 for having non-NULL ->mnt_ns * decrement to 0 happens only under vfsmount lock exclusive That allows nice common case for mntput() - since we can't drop the final reference until after mnt_longterm has reached 0 due to the rules above, mntput() can grab vfsmount lock shared and check mnt_longterm. If it turns out to be non-zero (which is the common case), we know that this is not the final mntput() and can just blindly decrement percpu mnt_count. Otherwise we grab vfsmount lock exclusive and do usual decrement-and-check of percpu mnt_count. For fs_struct.c we have mnt_make_longterm() and mnt_make_shortterm(); namespace.c uses the latter in places where we don't already hold vfsmount lock exclusive and opencodes a few remaining spots where we need to manipulate mnt_longterm. Note that we mostly revert the code outside of fs/namespace.c back to what we used to have; in particular, normal code doesn't need to care about two kinds of references, etc. And we get to keep the optimization Nick's variant had bought us...
