commit e003f74afbd2feadbb9ffbf9135e2d2fb5d320a5 upstream. Factor out a helper that calls filemap_write_and_wait_range and invalidate_inode_pages2_range for the range covered by a write kiocb or returns -EAGAIN if the kiocb is marked as nowait and there would be pages to write or invalidate.

filemap: add a per-mapping stable writes flag

2024-01-10T16:10:32+00:00

[ Upstream commit 762321dab9a72760bf9aec48362f932717c9424d ] folio_wait_stable waits for writeback to finish before modifying the contents of a folio again, e.g. to support check summing of the data in the block integrity code. Currently this behavior is controlled by the SB_I_STABLE_WRITES flag on the super_block, which means it is uniform for the entire file system. This is wrong for the block device pseudofs which is shared by all block devices, or file systems that can use multiple devices like XFS witht the RT subvolume or btrfs (although btrfs currently reimplements folio_wait_stable anyway). Add a per-address_space AS_STABLE_WRITES flag to control the behavior in a more fine grained way. The existing SB_I_STABLE_WRITES is kept to initialize AS_STABLE_WRITES to the existing default which covers most cases.

mm, netfs, fscache: stop read optimisation when folio removed from pagecache

2024-01-10T16:10:31+00:00

[ Upstream commit b4fa966f03b7401ceacd4ffd7227197afb2b8376 ] Fscache has an optimisation by which reads from the cache are skipped until we know that (a) there's data there to be read and (b) that data isn't entirely covered by pages resident in the netfs pagecache. This is done with two flags manipulated by fscache_note_page_release(): if (... test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_HAVE_DATA, &cookie->flags) && test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags)) clear_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, &cookie->flags); where the NO_DATA_TO_READ flag causes cachefiles_prepare_read() to indicate that netfslib should download from the server or clear the page instead. The fscache_note_page_release() function is intended to be called from ->releasepage() - but that only gets called if PG_private or PG_private_2 is set - and currently the former is at the discretion of the network filesystem and the latter is only set whilst a page is being written to the cache, so sometimes we miss clearing the optimisation. Fix this by following Willy's suggestion[1] and adding an address_space flag, AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS, that causes filemap_release_folio() to always call ->release_folio() if it's set, even if PG_private or PG_private_2 aren't set. Note that this would require folio_test_private() and page_has_private() to become more complicated. To avoid that, in the places[*] where these are used to conditionalise calls to filemap_release_folio() and try_to_release_page(), the tests are removed the those functions just jumped to unconditionally and the test is performed there. [*] There are some exceptions in vmscan.c where the check guards more than just a call to the releaser. I've added a function, folio_needs_release() to wrap all the checks for that. AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS should be set if a non-NULL cookie is obtained from fscache and cleared in ->evict_inode() before truncate_inode_pages_final() is called. Additionally, the FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ flag needs to be cleared and the optimisation cancelled if a cachefiles object already contains data when we open it.

filemap: add filemap_get_folios_tag()

2023-11-20T10:52:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit 247f9e1feef4e57911510c8f82348efb4491ea0e ] This is the equivalent of find_get_pages_range_tag(), except for folios instead of pages. One noteable difference is filemap_get_folios_tag() does not take in a maximum pages argument. It instead tries to fill a folio batch and stops either once full (15 folios) or reaching the end of the search range. The new function supports large folios, the initial function did not since all callers don't use large folios.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that). - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock contention. Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees. Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up. - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down to the single bit level. KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones. - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of memory into THPs. - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to support file/shmem-backed pages. - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and memory-failure - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages. - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced memory consumption. - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song. - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner. - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :( - migration enhancements from Peter Xu - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM drivers, etc. - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn. - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand. - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging activity. - THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng. - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox. - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov. - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia. - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups. - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song. - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

mm: add PSI accounting around ->read_folio and ->readahead calls

2022-09-20T14:24:38+00:00

PSI tries to account for the cost of bringing back in pages discarded by the MM LRU management. Currently the prime place for that is hooked into the bio submission path, which is a rather bad place: - it does not actually account I/O for non-block file systems, of which we have many - it adds overhead and a layering violation to the block layer Add the accounting into the two places in the core MM code that read pages into an address space by calling into ->read_folio and ->readahead so that the entire file system operations are covered, to broaden the coverage and allow removing the accounting in the block layer going forward. As psi_memstall_enter can deal with nested calls this will not lead to double accounting even while the bio annotations are still present.
