arch_vma_name sucks. It's a silly hack, and it's annoying to
implement correctly. In fact, AFAICS, even the straightforward x86
implementation is incorrect (I suspect that it breaks if the vdso
mapping is split or gets remapped).
This adds a new vm_ops->name operation that can replace it. The
followup patches will remove all uses of arch_vma_name on x86,
fixing a couple of annoyances in the process.

We remove the call to grab_super_passive in call to super_cache_count.
This becomes a scalability bottleneck as multiple threads are trying to do
memory reclamation, e.g. when we are doing large amount of file read and
page cache is under pressure. The cached objects quickly got reclaimed
down to 0 and we are aborting the cache_scan() reclaim. But counting
creates a log jam acquiring the sb_lock.
We are holding the shrinker_rwsem which ensures the safety of call to
list_lru_count_node() and s_op->nr_cached_objects. The shrinker is
unregistered now before ->kill_sb() so the operation is safe when we are
doing unmount.
The impact will depend heavily on the machine and the workload but for a
small machine using postmark tuned to use 4xRAM size the results were

This series is aimed at regressions noticed during reclaim activity. The
first two patches are shrinker patches that were posted ages ago but never
merged for reasons that are unclear to me. I'm posting them again to see
if there was a reason they were dropped or if they just got lost. Dave?
Time? The last patch adjusts proportional reclaim. Yuanhan Liu, can you
retest the vm scalability test cases on a larger machine? Hugh, does this
work for you on the memcg test cases?
Based on ext4, I get the following results but unfortunately my larger
test machines are all unavailable so this is based on a relatively small
machine.

This patch (of 3):
We will like to unregister the sb shrinker before ->kill_sb(). This will
allow cached objects to be counted without call to grab_super_passive() to
update ref count on sb. We want to avoid locking during memory
reclamation especially when we are skipping the memory reclaim when we are
out of cached objects.
This is safe because grab_super_passive does a try-lock on the
sb->s_umount now, and so if we are in the unmount process, it won't ever
block. That means what used to be a deadlock and races we were avoiding
by using grab_super_passive() is now:
shrinker umount
down_read(shrinker_rwsem)
down_write(sb->s_umount)
shrinker_unregister
down_write(shrinker_rwsem)
<blocks>
grab_super_passive(sb)
down_read_trylock(sb->s_umount)
<fails>
<shrinker aborts>
....
<shrinkers finish running>
up_read(shrinker_rwsem)
<unblocks>
<removes shrinker>
up_write(shrinker_rwsem)
->kill_sb()
....
So it is safe to deregister the shrinker before ->kill_sb().

possible
aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have
mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is
visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead
when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be
noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse
the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is
visible.
The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use
grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial
allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed()
helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may
called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically.
The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used
by most filesystems.
find_get_page
find_lock_page
find_or_create_page
grab_cache_page_nowait
grab_cache_page_write_begin
All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper
pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its
behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then
old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core
function.
Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling
mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already
done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the
mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page
gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might
have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the
filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the
timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking
pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems
have consistent behaviour in this regard.
The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done
multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the
file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the
async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even
hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact
of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be
more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO"
to not hit the disk.
The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA
artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall
times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the
variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable
do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync
results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.
The performance results are reported based on a run with no profiling.
Profile data is based on a separate run with oprofile running.

Discarding buffers uses a bunch of atomic operations when discarding
buffers because ...... I can't think of a reason. Use a cmpxchg loop to
clear all the necessary flags. In most (all?) cases this will be a single

A block device driver may choose to provide a rw_page operation. These
will be called when the filesystem is attempting to do page sized I/O to
page cache pages (ie not for direct I/O). This does preclude I/Os that
are larger than page size, so this may only be a performance gain for
some devices.

page_endio() takes care of updating all the appropriate page flags once
I/O has finished to a page. Switch to using mapping_set_error() instead
of setting AS_EIO directly; this will handle thin-provisioned devices

__mpage_writepage() is over 200 lines long, has 20 local variables, four
goto labels and could desperately use simplification. Splitting
clean_buffers() into a helper function improves matters a little,
removing 20+ lines from it.

January 2013. It's time to remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL, which leaves
block_write_full_page() as the only caller of
block_write_full_page_endio(), so inline block_write_full_page_endio()
into block_write_full_page().

clear_refs_write() is called earlier than clear_soft_dirty() and it is
more natural to clear VM_SOFTDIRTY (which belongs to VMA entry but not
PTEs) that early instead of clearing it a way deeper inside call chain.

"A lot of older filesystems don't properly flush volatile disk caches
on fsync(2) which can lead to loss of fsynced data after power failure.
This patch makes generic_file_fsync() issue proper cache flush to fix the
problem. Sysadmin can use /sys/devices/.../cache_type to tell the system
it should not send the cache flush."

Ocfs2 cluster size may be 1MB, which has 20 bits. When resize, the
input new clusters is mostly the number of clusters in a group
descriptor(32256).
Since the input clusters is defined as type int, so it will overflow
when shift left 20 bits and then lead to incorrect global bitmap i_size.

We found a race situation when dlm recovery and node joining occurs
simultaneously if the network state is bad.
N1 N4
start joining dlm and send
query join to all live nodes
set joining node to N1, return OK
send query join to other
live nodes and it may take
a while
call dlm_send_join_assert()
to send assert join message
when N2 is down, so keep
trying to send message to N2
until find N2 is down
send assert join message to
N3, but connection is down
with N3, so it may take a
while
become the recovery master for N2
and send begin reco message to other
nodes in domain map but no N1
connection with N3 is rebuild,
then send assert join to N4
call dlm_assert_joined_handler(),
add N1 to domain_map
dlm recovery done, send finalize message
to nodes in domain map, including N1
receiving finalize message,
trigger the BUG() because
recovery master mismatch.

Revert commit 75f82eaa502c ("ocfs2: fix NULL pointer dereference when
dismount and ocfs2rec simultaneously") because it may cause a umount
hang while shutting down the truncate log.
fix NULL pointer dereference when dismount and ocfs2rec simultaneously
The situation is as followes:
ocfs2_dismout_volume
-> ocfs2_recovery_exit
-> free osb->recovery_map
-> ocfs2_truncate_shutdown
-> lock global bitmap inode
-> ocfs2_wait_for_recovery
-> check whether osb->recovery_map->rm_used is zero
Because osb->recovery_map is already freed, rm_used can be any other
values, so it may yield umount hang.
To prevent NULL pointer dereference while getting sys_root_inode, we use
a osb_tl_disable flag to disable schedule osb_truncate_log_wq after
truncate log shutdown.

We found there is a conversion deadlock when the owner of lockres
happened to crash before send DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG for a downconverting
lock. The situation is as follows:
Node1 Node2 Node3
the owner of lockresA
lock_1 granted at EX mode
and call ocfs2_cluster_unlock
to decrease ex_holders.
converting lock_3 from
NL to EX
send DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG
to Node1, asking Node 1
to downconvert.
receiving DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG,
thread ocfs2dc send
DLM_CONVERT_LOCK_MSG
to Node2 to downconvert
lock_1(EX->NL).
lock_1 can be granted and
put it into pending_asts
list, return DLM_NORMAL.
then something happened
and Node2 crashed.
received DLM_NORMAL, waiting
for DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG.
selected as the recovery
master, receving migrate
lock from Node1, queue
lock_1 to the tail of
converting list.
After dlm recovery, converting list in the master of lockresA(Node3)
will be: converting list head <-> lock_3(NL->EX) <->lock_1(EX<->NL).
Requested mode of lock_3 is not compatible with the granted mode of
lock_1, so it can not be granted. and lock_1 can not downconvert
because covnerting queue is strictly FIFO. So a deadlock is created.
We think function dlm_process_recovery_data() should queue_ast for
lock_1 or alter the order of lock_1 and lock_3, so dlm_thread can
process lock_1 first. And if there are multiple downconverting locks,
they must convert form PR to NL, so no need to sort them.

Once JBD2_ABORT is set, ocfs2_commit_cache will fail in
ocfs2_commit_thread. Then it will get into a loop with mass logs. This
will meaninglessly consume a larger number of resource and may lead to
the system hanging. So limit printk in this case.

There are two standard techniques for dereferencing structures pointed

Without this patch fanotify_init does not validate the value passed in
event_f_flags.
When a fanotify event is read from the fanotify file descriptor a new
file descriptor is created where file.f_flags = event_f_flags.
Internal and external open flags are stored together in field f_flags of
struct file. Hence, an application might create file descriptors with
internal flags like FMODE_EXEC, FMODE_NOCMTIME set.
Jan Kara and Eric Paris both aggreed that this is a bug and the value of
event_f_flags should be checked:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/29/522
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/29/539
This updated patch version considers the comments by Michael Kerrisk in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/4/10
With the patch the value of event_f_flags is checked.
When specifying an invalid value error EINVAL is returned.
Internal flags are disallowed.
File creation flags are disallowed:
O_CREAT, O_DIRECTORY, O_EXCL, O_NOCTTY, O_NOFOLLOW, O_TRUNC, and O_TTY_INIT.
Flags which do not make sense with fanotify are disallowed:
__O_TMPFILE, O_PATH, FASYNC, and O_DIRECT.
This leaves us with the following allowed values:
O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR are basic functionality. The are stored in the
bits given by O_ACCMODE.
O_APPEND is working as expected. The value might be useful in a logging
application which appends the current status each time the log is opened.
O_LARGEFILE is needed for files exceeding 4GB on 32bit systems.
O_NONBLOCK may be useful when monitoring slow devices like tapes.
O_NDELAY is equal to O_NONBLOCK except for platform parisc.
To avoid code breaking on parisc either both flags should be
allowed or none. The patch allows both.
__O_SYNC and O_DSYNC may be used to avoid data loss on power disruption.
O_NOATIME may be useful to reduce disk activity.
O_CLOEXEC may be useful, if separate processes shall be used to scan files.
Once this patch is accepted, the fanotify_init.2 manpage has to be updated.

If fanotify_mark is called with illegal value of arguments flags and
marks it usually returns EINVAL.
When fanotify_mark is called with FAN_MARK_FLUSH the argument flags is
not checked for irrelevant flags like FAN_MARK_IGNORED_MASK.
The patch removes this inconsistency.
If an irrelevant flag is set error EINVAL is returned.

Do not initialize private_destroy_list twice. list_replace_init()
already takes care of initializing private_destroy_list. We don't need
to initialize it with LIST_HEAD() beforehand.

Before the patch, read creates FAN_ACCESS_PERM and FAN_ACCESS events,
readdir creates only FAN_ACCESS_PERM events.
This is inconsistent.
After the patch, readdir creates FAN_ACCESS_PERM and FAN_ACCESS events.
