For the map_pages() method, we need a test that does not sleep.  The page
fault handler will continue to call the fault() method where we can sleep
and do the full revalidation there.

<id>urn:sha1:a9eb558a5bea66cc43950632f5fffec6b5795233</id>
<content type='text'>
We're trying to get rid of the -&gt;writepage() hook[1].  Stop afs from using
it by unlocking the page and calling afs_writepages_region() rather than
folio_write_one().

A flag is passed to afs_writepages_region() to indicate that it should only
write a single region so that we don't flush the entire file in
-&gt;write_begin(), but do add other dirty data to the region being written to
try and reduce the number of RPC ops.

This requires -&gt;migrate_folio() to be implemented, so point that at
filemap_migrate_folio() for files and also for symlinks and directories.

This can be tested by turning on the afs_folio_dirty tracepoint and then
doing something like:

   xfs_io -c "w 2223 7000" -c "w 15000 22222" -c "w 23 7" /afs/my/test/foo

and then looking in the trace to see if the write at position 15000 gets
stored before page 0 gets dirtied for the write at position 23.

READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.

Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

check_write_begin() will unlock and put the folio when return
non-zero.  So we should avoid unlocking and putting it twice in
netfs layer.

Change the way -&gt;check_write_begin() works in the following two ways:

 (1) Pass it a pointer to the folio pointer, allowing it to unlock and put
     the folio prior to doing the stuff it wants to do, provided it clears
     the folio pointer.

 (2) Change the return values such that 0 with folio pointer set means
     continue, 0 with folio pointer cleared means re-get and all error
     codes indicating an error (no special treatment for -EAGAIN).

<content type='text'>
The netfs_io_request cleanup op is now always in a position to be given a
pointer to a netfs_io_request struct, so this can be passed in instead of
the mapping and private data arguments (both of which are included in the
struct).

So rename the -&gt;cleanup op to -&gt;free_request (to match -&gt;init_request) and
pass in the I/O pointer.

<title>netfs: Fix gcc-12 warning by embedding vfs inode in netfs_i_context</title>

<id>urn:sha1:874c8ca1e60b2c564a48f7e7acc40d328d5c8733</id>
<content type='text'>
While randstruct was satisfied with using an open-coded "void *" offset
cast for the netfs_i_context &lt;-&gt; inode casting, __builtin_object_size() as
used by FORTIFY_SOURCE was not as easily fooled.  This was causing the
following complaint[1] from gcc v12:

  In file included from include/linux/string.h:253,
                   from include/linux/ceph/ceph_debug.h:7,
                   from fs/ceph/inode.c:2:
  In function 'fortify_memset_chk',
      inlined from 'netfs_i_context_init' at include/linux/netfs.h:326:2,
      inlined from 'ceph_alloc_inode' at fs/ceph/inode.c:463:2:
  include/linux/fortify-string.h:242:25: warning: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
    242 |                         __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
        |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by embedding a struct inode into struct netfs_i_context (which
should perhaps be renamed to struct netfs_inode).  The struct inode
vfs_inode fields are then removed from the 9p, afs, ceph and cifs inode
structs and vfs_inode is then simply changed to "netfs.inode" in those
filesystems.

Further, rename netfs_i_context to netfs_inode, get rid of the
netfs_inode() function that converted a netfs_i_context pointer to an
inode pointer (that can now be done with &amp;ctx-&gt;inode) and rename the
netfs_i_context() function to netfs_inode() (which is now a wrapper
around container_of()).

Most of the changes were done with:

  perl -p -i -e 's/vfs_inode/netfs.inode/'g \
        `git grep -l 'vfs_inode' -- fs/{9p,afs,ceph,cifs}/*.[ch]`

Kees suggested doing it with a pair structure[2] and a special
declarator to insert that into the network filesystem's inode
wrapper[3], but I think it's cleaner to embed it - and then it doesn't
matter if struct randomisation reorders things.

Dave Chinner suggested using a filesystem-specific VFS_I() function in
each filesystem to convert that filesystem's own inode wrapper struct
into the VFS inode struct[4].

Version #2:
 - Fix a couple of missed name changes due to a disabled cifs option.
 - Rename nfs_i_context to nfs_inode
 - Use "netfs" instead of "nic" as the member name in per-fs inode wrapper
   structs.

[ This also undoes commit 507160f46c55 ("netfs: gcc-12: temporarily
  disable '-Wattribute-warning' for now") that is no longer needed ]

Pull netfs updates from David Howells:
 "Netfs prep for write helpers.

  Having had a go at implementing write helpers and content encryption
  support in netfslib, it seems that the netfs_read_{,sub}request
  structs and the equivalent write request structs were almost the same
  and so should be merged, thereby requiring only one set of
  alloc/get/put functions and a common set of tracepoints.

  Merging the structs also has the advantage that if a bounce buffer is
  added to the request struct, a read operation can be performed to fill
  the bounce buffer, the contents of the buffer can be modified and then
  a write operation can be performed on it to send the data wherever it
  needs to go using the same request structure all the way through. The
  I/O handlers would then transparently perform any required crypto.
  This should make it easier to perform RMW cycles if needed.

  The potentially common functions and structs, however, by their names
  all proclaim themselves to be associated with the read side of things.

  The bulk of these changes alter this in the following ways:

   - Rename struct netfs_read_{,sub}request to netfs_io_{,sub}request.

   - Rename some enums, members and flags to make them more appropriate.

   - Adjust some comments to match.

   - Drop "read"/"rreq" from the names of common functions. For
     instance, netfs_get_read_request() becomes netfs_get_request().

   - The -&gt;init_rreq() and -&gt;issue_op() methods become -&gt;init_request()
     and -&gt;issue_read(). I've kept the latter as a read-specific
     function and in another branch added an -&gt;issue_write() method.

  The driver source is then reorganised into a number of files:

        fs/netfs/buffered_read.c        Create read reqs to the pagecache
        fs/netfs/io.c                   Dispatchers for read and write reqs
        fs/netfs/main.c                 Some general miscellaneous bits
        fs/netfs/objects.c              Alloc, get and put functions
        fs/netfs/stats.c                Optional procfs statistics.

  and future development can be fitted into this scheme, e.g.:

        fs/netfs/buffered_write.c       Modify the pagecache
        fs/netfs/buffered_flush.c       Writeback from the pagecache
        fs/netfs/direct_read.c          DIO read support
        fs/netfs/direct_write.c         DIO write support
        fs/netfs/unbuffered_write.c     Write modifications directly back

  Beyond the above changes, there are also some changes that affect how
  things work:

   - Make fscache_end_operation() generally available.

   - In the netfs tracing header, generate enums from the symbol -&gt;
     string mapping tables rather than manually coding them.

   - Add a struct for filesystems that uses netfslib to put into their
     inode wrapper structs to hold extra state that netfslib is
     interested in, such as the fscache cookie. This allows netfslib
     functions to be set in filesystem operation tables and jumped to
     directly without having to have a filesystem wrapper.

   - Add a member to the struct added above to track the remote inode
     length as that may differ if local modifications are buffered. We
     may need to supply an appropriate EOF pointer when storing data (in
     AFS for example).

   - Pass extra information to netfs_alloc_request() so that the
     -&gt;init_request() hook can access it and retain information to
     indicate the origin of the operation.

   - Make the -&gt;init_request() hook return an error, thereby allowing a
     filesystem that isn't allowed to cache an inode (ceph or cifs, for
     example) to skip readahead.

   - Switch to using refcount_t for subrequests and add tracepoints to
     log refcount changes for the request and subrequest structs.

   - Add a function to consolidate dispatching a read request. Similar
     code is used in three places and another couple are likely to be
     added in the future"
