device-dax: allow MAP_SYNC to succeed

2018-04-19T22:11:50+00:00

MAP_SYNC is a nop for device-dax. Allow MAP_SYNC to succeed on device-dax to eliminate special casing between device-dax and fs-dax as to when the flag can be specified. Device-dax users already implicitly assume that they do not need to call fsync(), and this enables them to explicitly check for this capability.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2018-04-10T17:25:57+00:00

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were several late changes that have only now just settled. Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f145 ("fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases. The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment. The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight. A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for 4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot over 156 configs. An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and passing all unit tests. The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event() functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will need to wait for 4.18. Summary: - A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection of unmap operations (truncate / hole punch) colliding with in-progress device-DMA. A fix for these collisions remains a work-in-progress pending resolution of truncate latency and starvation regressions. - The of_pmem driver expands the users of libnvdimm outside of x86 and ACPI to describe an implementation of persistent memory on PowerPC with Open Firmware / Device tree. - Address Range Scrub (ARS) handling is completely rewritten to account for the fact that ARS may run for 100s of seconds and there is no platform defined way to cancel it. ARS will now no longer block namespace initialization. - The NVDIMM Namespace Label implementation is updated to handle label areas as small as 1K, down from 128K. - Miscellaneous cleanups and updates to unit test infrastructure" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (39 commits) libnvdimm, of_pmem: workaround OF_NUMA=n build error nfit, address-range-scrub: add module option to skip initial ars nfit, address-range-scrub: rework and simplify ARS state machine nfit, address-range-scrub: determine one platform max_ars value powerpc/powernv: Create platform devs for nvdimm buses doc/devicetree: Persistent memory region bindings libnvdimm: Add device-tree based driver libnvdimm: Add of_node to region and bus descriptors libnvdimm, region: quiet region probe libnvdimm, namespace: use a safe lookup for dimm device name libnvdimm, dimm: fix dpa reservation vs uninitialized label area libnvdimm, testing: update the default smart ctrl_temperature libnvdimm, testing: Add emulation for smart injection commands nfit, address-range-scrub: introduce nfit_spa->ars_state libnvdimm: add an api to cast a 'struct nd_region' to its 'struct device' nfit, address-range-scrub: fix scrub in-progress reporting dax, dm: allow device-mapper to operate without dax support dax: introduce CONFIG_DAX_DRIVER fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn if truncate collides with a busy page ext2, dax: introduce ext2_dax_aops ...

device-dax: remove redundant func in dev_dbg

2018-03-06T16:50:23+00:00

Dynamic debug can be instructed to add the function name to the debug output using the +f switch, so there is no need for the dax modules to do it again. If a user decides to add the +f switch for the dax modules' dynamic debug this results in double prints of the function name.

device-dax: implement ->split() to catch invalid munmap attempts

2017-11-30T02:40:42+00:00

Similar to how device-dax enforces that the 'address', 'offset', and 'len' parameters to mmap() be aligned to the device's fundamental alignment, the same constraints apply to munmap(). Implement ->split() to fail munmap calls that violate the alignment constraint. Otherwise, we later fail VM_BUG_ON checks in the unmap_page_range() path with crash signatures of the form: vma ffff8800b60c8a88 start 00007f88c0000000 end 00007f88c0e00000 next (null) prev (null) mm ffff8800b61150c0 prot 8000000000000027 anon_vma (null) vm_ops ffffffffa0091240 pgoff 0 file ffff8800b638ef80 private_data (null) flags: 0x380000fb(read|write|shared|mayread|maywrite|mayexec|mayshare|softdirty|mixedmap|hugepage) ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:2014!

fs: new infrastructure for writeback error handling and reporting

2017-07-06T11:02:25+00:00

Most filesystems currently use mapping_set_error and filemap_check_errors for setting and reporting/clearing writeback errors at the mapping level. filemap_check_errors is indirectly called from most of the filemap_fdatawait_* functions and from filemap_write_and_wait*. These functions are called from all sorts of contexts to wait on writeback to finish -- e.g. mostly in fsync, but also in truncate calls, getattr, etc. The non-fsync callers are problematic. We should be reporting writeback errors during fsync, but many places spread over the tree clear out errors before they can be properly reported, or report errors at nonsensical times. If I get -EIO on a stat() call, there is no reason for me to assume that it is because some previous writeback failed. The fact that it also clears out the error such that a subsequent fsync returns 0 is a bug, and a nasty one since that's potentially silent data corruption. This patch adds a small bit of new infrastructure for setting and reporting errors during address_space writeback. While the above was my original impetus for adding this, I think it's also the case that current fsync semantics are just problematic for userland. Most applications that call fsync do so to ensure that the data they wrote has hit the backing store. In the case where there are multiple writers to the file at the same time, this is really hard to determine. The first one to call fsync will see any stored error, and the rest get back 0. The processes with open fds may not be associated with one another in any way. They could even be in different containers, so ensuring coordination between all fsync callers is not really an option. One way to remedy this would be to track what file descriptor was used to dirty the file, but that's rather cumbersome and would likely be slow. However, there is a simpler way to improve the semantics here without incurring too much overhead. This set adds an errseq_t to struct address_space, and a corresponding one is added to struct file. Writeback errors are recorded in the mapping's errseq_t, and the one in struct file is used as the "since" value. This changes the semantics of the Linux fsync implementation such that applications can now use it to determine whether there were any writeback errors since fsync(fd) was last called (or since the file was opened in the case of fsync having never been called). Note that those writeback errors may have occurred when writing data that was dirtied via an entirely different fd, but that's the case now with the current mapping_set_error/filemap_check_error infrastructure. This will at least prevent you from getting a false report of success. The new behavior is still consistent with the POSIX spec, and is more reliable for application developers. This patch just adds some basic infrastructure for doing this, and ensures that the f_wb_err "cursor" is properly set when a file is opened. Later patches will change the existing code to use this new infrastructure for reporting errors at fsync time. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Reviewed-by: Jan Kara
