Pull Writeback error handling updates from Jeff Layton:
"This pile represents the bulk of the writeback error handling fixes
that I have for this cycle. Some of the earlier patches in this pile
may look trivial but they are prerequisites for later patches in the
series.
The aim of this set is to improve how we track and report writeback
errors to userland. Most applications that care about data integrity
will periodically call fsync/fdatasync/msync to ensure that their
writes have made it to the backing store.
For a very long time, we have tracked writeback errors using two flags
in the address_space: AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC. Those flags are set when a
writeback error occurs (via mapping_set_error) and are cleared as a
side-effect of filemap_check_errors (as you noted yesterday). This
model really sucks for userland.
Only the first task to call fsync (or msync or fdatasync) will see the
error. Any subsequent task calling fsync on a file will get back 0
(unless another writeback error occurs in the interim). If I have
several tasks writing to a file and calling fsync to ensure that their
writes got stored, then I need to have them coordinate with one
another. That's difficult enough, but in a world of containerized
setups that coordination may even not be possible.
But wait...it gets worse!
The calls to filemap_check_errors can be buried pretty far down in the
call stack, and there are internal callers of filemap_write_and_wait
and the like that also end up clearing those errors. Many of those
callers ignore the error return from that function or return it to
userland at nonsensical times (e.g. truncate() or stat()). If I get
back -EIO on a truncate, there is no reason to think that it was
because some previous writeback failed, and a subsequent fsync() will
(incorrectly) return 0.
This pile aims to do three things:
1) ensure that when a writeback error occurs that that error will be
reported to userland on a subsequent fsync/fdatasync/msync call,
regardless of what internal callers are doing
2) report writeback errors on all file descriptions that were open at
the time that the error occurred. This is a user-visible change,
but I think most applications are written to assume this behavior
anyway. Those that aren't are unlikely to be hurt by it.
3) document what filesystems should do when there is a writeback
error. Today, there is very little consistency between them, and a
lot of cargo-cult copying. We need to make it very clear what
filesystems should do in this situation.
To achieve this, the set adds a new data type (errseq_t) and then
builds new writeback error tracking infrastructure around that. Once
all of that is in place, we change the filesystems to use the new
infrastructure for reporting wb errors to userland.
Note that this is just the initial foray into cleaning up this mess.
There is a lot of work remaining here:
1) convert the rest of the filesystems in a similar fashion. Once the
initial set is in, then I think most other fs' will be fairly
simple to convert. Hopefully most of those can in via individual
filesystem trees.
2) convert internal waiters on writeback to use errseq_t for
detecting errors instead of relying on the AS_* flags. I have some
draft patches for this for ext4, but they are not quite ready for
prime time yet.
This was a discussion topic this year at LSF/MM too. If you're
interested in the gory details, LWN has some good articles about this:

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"libnvdimm updates for the latest ACPI and UEFI specifications. This
pull request also includes new 'struct dax_operations' enabling to
undo the abuse of copy_user_nocache() for copy operations to pmem.
The dax work originally missed 4.12 to address concerns raised by Al.
Summary:
- Introduce the _flushcache() family of memory copy helpers and use
them for persistent memory write operations on x86. The
_flushcache() semantic indicates that the cache is either bypassed
for the copy operation (movnt) or any lines dirtied by the copy
operation are written back (clwb, clflushopt, or clflush).
- Extend dax_operations with ->copy_from_iter() and ->flush()
operations. These operations and other infrastructure updates allow
all persistent memory specific dax functionality to be pushed into
libnvdimm and the pmem driver directly. It also allows dax-specific
sysfs attributes to be linked to a host device, for example:
/sys/block/pmem0/dax/write_cache
- Add support for the new NVDIMM platform/firmware mechanisms
introduced in ACPI 6.2 and UEFI 2.7. This support includes the v1.2
namespace label format, extensions to the address-range-scrub
command set, new error injection commands, and a new BTT
(block-translation-table) layout. These updates support inter-OS
and pre-OS compatibility.
- Fix a longstanding memory corruption bug in nfit_test.
- Make the pmem and nvdimm-region 'badblocks' sysfs files poll(2)
capable.
- Miscellaneous fixes and small updates across libnvdimm and the nfit
driver.

Track the following reclaim counters for every memory cgroup: PGREFILL,
PGSCAN, PGSTEAL, PGACTIVATE, PGDEACTIVATE, PGLAZYFREE and PGLAZYFREED.
These values are exposed using the memory.stats interface of cgroup v2.
The meaning of each value is the same as for global counters, available
using /proc/vmstat.
Also, for consistency, rename mem_cgroup_count_vm_event() to
count_memcg_event_mm().

Jan Kara's description for this patch is much better than mine, so I'm
quoting it verbatim here:
DAX currently doesn't set errors in the mapping when cache flushing
fails in dax_writeback_mapping_range(). Since this function can get
called only from fsync(2) or sync(2), this is actually as good as it can
currently get since we correctly propagate the error up from
dax_writeback_mapping_range() to filemap_fdatawrite()
However, in the future better writeback error handling will enable us to
properly report these errors on fsync(2) even if there are multiple file
descriptors open against the file or if sync(2) gets called before
fsync(2). So convert DAX to using standard error reporting through the
mapping.

dax_writeback_mapping_range() fails to update iteration index when
searching radix tree for entries needing cache flushing. Thus each
pagevec worth of entries is searched starting from the start which is
inefficient and prone to livelocks. Update index properly.

Rename:
wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t
'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
which had to carry the name.
Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.
This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

The clear_pmem() helper simply combines a memset() plus a cache flush.
Now that the flush routine is optionally provided by the dax device
driver we can avoid unnecessary cache management on dax devices fronting
volatile memory.
With clear_pmem() gone we can follow on with a patch to make pmem cache
management completely defined within the pmem driver.

Filesystem-DAX flushes caches whenever it writes to the address returned
through dax_direct_access() and when writing back dirty radix entries.
That flushing is only required in the pmem case, so the dax_flush()
helper skips cache management work when the underlying driver does not
specify a flush method.
We still do all the dirty tracking since the radix entry will already be
there for locking purposes. However, the work to clean the entry will be
a nop for some dax drivers.

We currently have two related PMD vs PTE races in the DAX code. These
can both be easily triggered by having two threads reading and writing
simultaneously to the same private mapping, with the key being that
private mapping reads can be handled with PMDs but private mapping
writes are always handled with PTEs so that we can COW.
Here is the first race:
CPU 0 CPU 1
(private mapping write)
__handle_mm_fault()
create_huge_pmd() - FALLBACK
handle_pte_fault()
passes check for pmd_devmap()
(private mapping read)
__handle_mm_fault()
create_huge_pmd()
dax_iomap_pmd_fault() inserts PMD
dax_iomap_pte_fault() does a PTE fault, but we already have a DAX PMD
installed in our page tables at this spot.
Here's the second race:
CPU 0 CPU 1
(private mapping read)
__handle_mm_fault()
passes check for pmd_none()
create_huge_pmd()
dax_iomap_pmd_fault() inserts PMD
(private mapping write)
__handle_mm_fault()
create_huge_pmd() - FALLBACK
(private mapping read)
__handle_mm_fault()
passes check for pmd_none()
create_huge_pmd()
handle_pte_fault()
dax_iomap_pte_fault() inserts PTE
dax_iomap_pmd_fault() inserts PMD,
but we already have a PTE at
this spot.
The core of the issue is that while there is isolation between faults to
the same range in the DAX fault handlers via our DAX entry locking,
there is no isolation between faults in the code in mm/memory.c. This
means for instance that this code in __handle_mm_fault() can run:
if (pmd_none(*vmf.pmd) && transparent_hugepage_enabled(vma)) {
ret = create_huge_pmd(&vmf);
But by the time we actually get to run the fault handler called by
create_huge_pmd(), the PMD is no longer pmd_none() because a racing PTE
fault has installed a normal PMD here as a parent. This is the cause of
the 2nd race. The first race is similar - there is the following check
in handle_pte_fault():
} else {
/* See comment in pte_alloc_one_map() */
if (pmd_devmap(*vmf->pmd) || pmd_trans_unstable(vmf->pmd))
return 0;
So if a pmd_devmap() PMD (a DAX PMD) has been installed at vmf->pmd, we
will bail and retry the fault. This is correct, but there is nothing
preventing the PMD from being installed after this check but before we
actually get to the DAX PTE fault handlers.
In my testing these races result in the following types of errors:
BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff8800a817d280 idx:1 val:1
BUG: non-zero nr_ptes on freeing mm: 15
Fix this issue by having the DAX fault handlers verify that it is safe
to continue their fault after they have taken an entry lock to block
other racing faults.

This is based on a patch from Jan Kara that fixed the equivalent race in
the DAX PTE fault path.
Currently DAX PMD read fault can race with write(2) in the following
way:
CPU1 - write(2) CPU2 - read fault
dax_iomap_pmd_fault()
->iomap_begin() - sees hole
dax_iomap_rw()
iomap_apply()
->iomap_begin - allocates blocks
dax_iomap_actor()
invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
- there's nothing to invalidate
grab_mapping_entry()
- we add huge zero page to the radix tree
and map it to page tables
The result is that hole page is mapped into page tables (and thus zeros
are seen in mmap) while file has data written in that place.
Fix the problem by locking exception entry before mapping blocks for the
fault. That way we are sure invalidate_inode_pages2_range() call for
racing write will either block on entry lock waiting for the fault to
finish (and unmap stale page tables after that) or read fault will see
already allocated blocks by write(2).

Currently, we didn't invalidate page tables during invalidate_inode_pages2()
for DAX. That could result in e.g. 2MiB zero page being mapped into
page tables while there were already underlying blocks allocated and
thus data seen through mmap were different from data seen by read(2).
The following sequence reproduces the problem:
- open an mmap over a 2MiB hole
- read from a 2MiB hole, faulting in a 2MiB zero page
- write to the hole with write(3p). The write succeeds but we
incorrectly leave the 2MiB zero page mapping intact.
- via the mmap, read the data that was just written. Since the zero
page mapping is still intact we read back zeroes instead of the new
data.
Fix the problem by unconditionally calling invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
in dax_iomap_actor() for new block allocations and by properly
invalidating page tables in invalidate_inode_pages2_range() for DAX
mappings.

Patch series "mm,dax: Fix data corruption due to mmap inconsistency",
v4.
This series fixes data corruption that can happen for DAX mounts when
page faults race with write(2) and as a result page tables get out of
sync with block mappings in the filesystem and thus data seen through
mmap is different from data seen through read(2).
The series passes testing with t_mmap_stale test program from Ross and
also other mmap related tests on DAX filesystem.
This patch (of 4):
dax_invalidate_mapping_entry() currently removes DAX exceptional entries
only if they are clean and unlocked. This is done via:
invalidate_mapping_pages()
invalidate_exceptional_entry()
dax_invalidate_mapping_entry()
However, for page cache pages removed in invalidate_mapping_pages()
there is an additional criteria which is that the page must not be
mapped. This is noted in the comments above invalidate_mapping_pages()
and is checked in invalidate_inode_page().
For DAX entries this means that we can can end up in a situation where a
DAX exceptional entry, either a huge zero page or a regular DAX entry,
could end up mapped but without an associated radix tree entry. This is
inconsistent with the rest of the DAX code and with what happens in the
page cache case.
We aren't able to unmap the DAX exceptional entry because according to
its comments invalidate_mapping_pages() isn't allowed to block, and
unmap_mapping_range() takes a write lock on the mapping->i_mmap_rwsem.
Since we essentially never have unmapped DAX entries to evict from the
radix tree, just remove dax_invalidate_mapping_entry().
Fixes: c6dcf52c23d2 ("mm: Invalidate DAX radix tree entries only if appropriate")

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"Incremental fixes and a small feature addition on top of the main
libnvdimm 4.12 pull request:
- Geert noticed that tinyconfig was bloated by BLOCK selecting DAX.
The size regression is fixed by moving all dax helpers into the
dax-core and only specifying "select DAX" for FS_DAX and
dax-capable drivers. He also asked for clarification of the
NR_DEV_DAX config option which, on closer look, does not need to be
a config option at all. Mike also throws in a DEV_DAX_PMEM fixup
for good measure.
- Ben's attention to detail on -stable patch submissions caught a
case where the recent fixes to arch_copy_from_iter_pmem() missed a
condition where we strand dirty data in the cache. This is tagged
for -stable and will also be included in the rework of the pmem api
to a proposed {memcpy,copy_user}_flushcache() interface for 4.13.
- Vishal adds a feature that missed the initial pull due to pending
review feedback. It allows the kernel to clear media errors when
initializing a BTT (atomic sector update driver) instance on a pmem
namespace.
- Ross noticed that the dax_device + dax_operations conversion broke
__dax_zero_page_range(). The nvdimm unit tests fail to check this
path, but xfstests immediately trips over it. No excuse for missing
this before submitting the 4.12 pull request.
These all pass the nvdimm unit tests and an xfstests spot check. The

The conversion of __dax_zero_page_range() to 'struct dax_operations'
caused it to frequently fail. The mistake was treating the @size
parameter as a dax mapping length rather than just a length of the
clear_pmem() operation. The dax mapping length is assumed to be hard
coded as PAGE_SIZE.
Without this fix any page unaligned zeroing request will trigger a
-EINVAL return from bdev_dax_pgoff().

Add a tracepoint to dax_insert_mapping(), following the same logging
conventions as the rest of DAX. This tracepoint, along with the one in
dax_load_hole(), lets us know how a DAX PTE fault was serviced.

Patch series "second round of tracepoints for DAX".
This second round of DAX tracepoint patches adds tracing to the PTE
fault path (dax_iomap_pte_fault(), dax_pfn_mkwrite(), dax_load_hole(),
dax_insert_mapping()) and to the writeback path
(dax_writeback_mapping_range(), dax_writeback_one()).
The purpose of this tracing is to give us a high level view of what DAX
is doing, whether faults are being serviced by PMDs or PTEs, and by real
storage or by zero pages covering holes.
I do have some patches nearly ready which also add tracing to
grab_mapping_entry() and dax_insert_mapping_entry(). These are more
targeted at logging how we are interacting with the radix tree, how we
use empty entries for locking, whether we "downgrade" huge zero pages to
4k PTE sized allocations, etc. In the end it seemed to me that this
might be too detailed to have as constantly present tracepoints, but if
anyone sees value in having tracepoints like this in the DAX code
permanently (Jan?), please let me know and I'll add those last two
patches.
All these tracepoints were done to be consistent with the style of the
XFS tracepoints and with the existing DAX PMD tracepoints.
This patch (of 6):
Add tracepoints to dax_iomap_pte_fault(), following the same logging
conventions as the rest of DAX.
Here is an example fault that initially tries to be serviced by the PMD
fault handler but which falls back to PTEs because the VMA isn't large
enough to hold a PMD:
small-1086 [005] ....
71.140014: xfs_filemap_huge_fault: dev 259:0 ino 0x1003

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few
late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last
couple days, but the whole set has received a build success
notification from the kbuild robot.
Change summary:
- Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the
parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been
reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block
devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that
namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new
interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of
namespace modes or state.
This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1
Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error"
requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus
devices.
- Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted
by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for
dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations.
This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are
related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for
other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent
memory support.
- 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is
available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger
memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would
otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR
(asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event.
Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from
surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally,
fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for
-stable.
- ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to
add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM
payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
- Add BFQ IO scheduler under the new blk-mq scheduling framework. BFQ
was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement
fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant
to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness.
From Paolo.
- Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler,
using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on
live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.
- A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing
devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life
times, solving various problems with hot removal.
- A series of updates for lightnvm, mostly from Javier. Includes a
'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block
device.
- A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.
- A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
more than a decade.
- Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.
- blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
marked experimental for now.
- Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves
efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size
IO.
- A few fixes for opal, from Scott.
- A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics.
From a variety of folks, mostly Sagi and James Smart.
- A series from Bart, improving our exposed info and capabilities from
the blk-mq debugfs support.
- A series from Christoph, cleaning up how handle WRITE_ZEROES.
- A series from Christoph, cleaning up the block layer handling of how
we track errors in a request. On top of being a nice cleanup, it also
shrinks the size of struct request a bit.
- Removal of mg_disk and hd (sorry Linus) by Christoph. The former was
never used by platforms, and the latter has outlived it's usefulness.
- Various little bug fixes and cleanups from a wide variety of folks.

Now that a dax_device is plumbed through all dax-capable drivers we can
switch from block_device_operations to dax_operations for invoking
->direct_access.
This also lets us kill off some usages of struct blk_dax_ctl on the way
to its eventual removal.

commit d1a5f2b4d8a1 ("block: use DAX for partition table reads") was
part of a stalled effort to allow dax mappings of block devices. Since
then the device-dax mechanism has filled the role of dax-mapping static
device ranges.
Now that we are moving ->direct_access() from a block_device operation
to a dax_inode operation we would need block devices to map and carry
their own dax_inode reference.
Unless / until we decide to revive dax mapping of raw block devices
through the dax_inode scheme, there is no need to carry
read_dax_sector(). Its removal in turn allows for the removal of
bdev_direct_access() and should have been included in commit
223757016837 ("block_dev: remove DAX leftovers").

While running generic/340 in my test setup I hit the following race. It
can happen with kernels that support FS DAX PMDs, so v4.10 thru
v4.11-rc5.
Thread 1 Thread 2
-------- --------
dax_iomap_pmd_fault()

'entry' is NULL, can't call lock_slot()
spin_unlock_irq()

...
lock_slot()
spin_unlock_irq()

<inserts a PMD mapping>
spin_lock_irq()
__radix_tree_insert() fails with -EEXIST
<fall back to 4k fault, and die horribly
when inserting a 4k entry where a PMD exists>
The issue is that we have to drop mapping->tree_lock while calling
radix_tree_preload(), but since we didn't have a radix tree entry to
lock (unlike in the pmd_downgrade case) we have no protection against
Thread 2 coming along and inserting a PMD at the same index. For 4k
entries we handled this with a special-case response to -EEXIST coming
from the __radix_tree_insert(), but this doesn't save us for PMDs
because the -EEXIST case can also mean that we collided with a 4k entry
in the radix tree at a different index, but one that is covered by our
PMD range.
So, correctly handle both the 4k and 2M collision cases by explicitly
re-checking the radix tree for an entry at our index once we reacquire
mapping->tree_lock.
This patch has made it through a clean xfstests run with the current
v4.11-rc5 based linux/master, and it also ran generic/340 500 times in a
loop. It used to fail within the first 10 iterations.

Instead of including the full <linux/signal.h>, we are going to include the

Since the introduction of FAULT_FLAG_SIZE to the vm_fault flag, it has
been somewhat painful with getting the flags set and removed at the
correct locations. More than one kernel oops was introduced due to
difficulties of getting the placement correctly.
Remove the flag values and introduce an input parameter to huge_fault
that indicates the size of the page entry. This makes the code easier
to trace and should avoid the issues we see with the fault flags where
removal of the flag was necessary in the fallback paths.

Patch series "1G transparent hugepage support for device dax", v2.
The following series implements support for 1G trasparent hugepage on
x86 for device dax. The bulk of the code was written by Mathew Wilcox a
while back supporting transparent 1G hugepage for fs DAX. I have
forward ported the relevant bits to 4.10-rc. The current submission has
only the necessary code to support device DAX.
Comments from Dan Williams: So the motivation and intended user of this
functionality mirrors the motivation and users of 1GB page support in
hugetlbfs. Given expected capacities of persistent memory devices an
in-memory database may want to reduce tlb pressure beyond what they can
already achieve with 2MB mappings of a device-dax file. We have
customer feedback to that effect as Willy mentioned in his previous
version of these patches [1].
[1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/31/52
Comments from Nilesh @ Oracle:
There are applications which have a process model; and if you assume
10,000 processes attempting to mmap all the 6TB memory available on a
server; we are looking at the following:
processes : 10,000
memory : 6TB
pte @ 4k page size: 8 bytes / 4K of memory * #processes = 6TB / 4k * 8 * 10000 = 1.5GB * 80000 = 120,000GB
pmd @ 2M page size: 120,000 / 512 = ~240GB
pud @ 1G page size: 240GB / 512 = ~480MB
As you can see with 2M pages, this system will use up an exorbitant
amount of DRAM to hold the page tables; but the 1G pages finally brings
it down to a reasonable level. Memory sizes will keep increasing; so
this number will keep increasing.
An argument can be made to convert the applications from process model
to thread model, but in the real world that may not be always practical.
Hopefully this helps explain the use case where this is valuable.
This patch (of 3):
In preparation for adding the ability to handle PUD pages, convert
vm_operations_struct.pmd_fault to vm_operations_struct.huge_fault. The
vm_fault structure is extended to include a union of the different page
table pointers that may be needed, and three flag bits are reserved to
indicate which type of pointer is in the union.

take a vma and vmf parameter when the vma already resides in vmf.

Instead of passing in multiple parameters in the pmd_fault() handler,
a vmf can be passed in just like a fault() handler. This will simplify
code and remove the need for the actual pmd fault handlers to allocate a
vmf. Related functions are also modified to do the same.

Tracepoints are the standard way to capture debugging and tracing
information in many parts of the kernel, including the XFS and ext4
filesystems. Create a tracepoint header for FS DAX and add the first DAX
tracepoints to the PMD fault handler. This allows the tracing for DAX to
be done in the same way as the filesystem tracing so that developers can
look at them together and get a coherent idea of what the system is doing.
I added both an entry and exit tracepoint because future patches will add
tracepoints to child functions of dax_iomap_pmd_fault() like
dax_pmd_load_hole() and dax_pmd_insert_mapping(). We want those messages
to be wrapped by the parent function tracepoints so the code flow is more
easily understood. Having entry and exit tracepoints for faults also
allows us to easily see what filesystems functions were called during the
fault. These filesystem functions get executed via iomap_begin() and
iomap_end() calls, for example, and will have their own tracepoints.
For PMD faults we primarily want to understand the type of mapping, the
fault flags, the faulting address and whether it fell back to 4k faults.
If it fell back to 4k faults the tracepoints should let us understand why.
I named the new tracepoint header file "fs_dax.h" to allow for device DAX
to have its own separate tracing header in the same directory at some
point.
Here is an example output for these events from a successful PMD fault:
big-1441 [005] .... 32.582758: xfs_filemap_pmd_fault: dev 259:0 ino 0x1003

the oom victim has access to all memory reserves to make a forward
progress to exit easier. But iomap_file_buffered_write and other
callers of iomap_apply loop to complete the full request. We need to
check for fatal signals and back off with a short write instead.
As the iomap_apply delegates all the work down to the actor we have to
hook into those. All callers that work with the page cache are calling
iomap_write_begin so we will check for signals there. dax_iomap_actor
has to handle the situation explicitly because it copies data to the
userspace directly. Other callers like iomap_page_mkwrite work on a
single page or iomap_fiemap_actor do not allocate memory based on the
given len.

Currently dax_mapping_entry_mkclean() fails to clean and write protect
the pmd_t of a DAX PMD entry during an *sync operation. This can result
in data loss in the following sequence:
1) mmap write to DAX PMD, dirtying PMD radix tree entry and making the
pmd_t dirty and writeable
2) fsync, flushing out PMD data and cleaning the radix tree entry. We
currently fail to mark the pmd_t as clean and write protected.
3) more mmap writes to the PMD. These don't cause any page faults since
the pmd_t is dirty and writeable. The radix tree entry remains clean.
4) fsync, which fails to flush the dirty PMD data because the radix tree
entry was clean.
5) crash - dirty data that should have been fsync'd as part of 4) could
still have been in the processor cache, and is lost.
Fix this by marking the pmd_t clean and write protected in
dax_mapping_entry_mkclean(), which is called as part of the fsync
operation 2). This will cause the writes in step 3) above to generate
page faults where we'll re-dirty the PMD radix tree entry, resulting in

Currently ->iomap_begin() handler is called with entry lock held. If the
filesystem held any locks between ->iomap_begin() and ->iomap_end()
(such as ext4 which will want to hold transaction open), this would cause
lock inversion with the iomap_apply() from standard IO path which first
calls ->iomap_begin() and only then calls ->actor() callback which grabs
entry locks for DAX (if it faults when copying from/to user provided
buffers).
Fix the problem by nesting grabbing of entry lock inside ->iomap_begin()
- ->iomap_end() pair.
