|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert commit 62a3ddef6181 ("vfs: fix spinning prevention in prune_icache_sb"). This commit doesn't look right: since we are looking at the tail of the list (sb->s_inode_lru.prev) if we want to skip an inode, we should put it back at the head of the list instead of the tail, otherwise we will keep spinning on it. Discovered when investigating why prune_icache_sb came top in perf reports of a swapping load.

* hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin2013-02-271-12/+7

I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

* writeback: put unused inodes to LRU after writeback completionJan Kara2012-11-261-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 169ebd90131b ("writeback: Avoid iput() from flusher thread") removed iget-iput pair from inode writeback. As a side effect, inodes that are dirty during iput_final() call won't be ever added to inode LRU (iput_final() doesn't add dirty inodes to LRU and later when the inode is cleaned there's noone to add the inode there). Thus inodes are effectively unreclaimable until someone looks them up again. The practical effect of this bug is limited by the fact that inodes are pinned by a dentry for long enough that the inode gets cleaned. But still the bug can have nasty consequences leading up to OOM conditions under certain circumstances. Following can easily reproduce the problem: for (( i = 0; i < 1000; i++ )); do mkdir $i for (( j = 0; j < 1000; j++ )); do touch $i/$j echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches done done then one needs to run 'sync; ls -lR' to make inodes reclaimable again. We fix the issue by inserting unused clean inodes into the LRU after writeback finishes in inode_sync_complete().

* mm: replace vma prio_tree with an interval treeMichel Lespinasse2012-10-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement an interval tree as a replacement for the VMA prio_tree. The algorithms are similar to lib/interval_tree.c; however that code can't be directly reused as the interval endpoints are not explicitly stored in the VMA. So instead, the common algorithm is moved into a template and the details (node type, how to get interval endpoints from the node, etc) are filled in using the C preprocessor. Once the interval tree functions are available, using them as a replacement to the VMA prio tree is a relatively simple, mechanical job.

| * fs: Skip atime update on frozen filesystemJan Kara2012-07-311-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is unexpected to block reading of frozen filesystem because of atime update. Also handling blocking on frozen filesystem because of atime update would make locking more complex than it already is.

We have subvolume quotas from the strato developers. This enables full tracking of how many blocks are allocated to each subvolume (and all snapshots) and you can set limits on a per-subvolume basis. You can also create quota groups and toss multiple subvolumes into a big group. It's everything you need to be a web hosting company and give each user their own subvolume. The userland side of the quotas is being refreshed, they'll send out details on where to grab it soon. Next is the kernel side of btrfs send/receive from Alexander Block. This leverages the same infrastructure as the quota code to figure out relationships between blocks and their owners. It can then compute the difference between two snapshots and sends the diffs in a neutral format into userland. The basic model: create a snapshot send that snapshot as the initial backup make changes create a second snapshot send the incremental as a backup delete the first snapshot (use the second snapshot for the next incremental) The receive portion is all in userland, and in the 'next' branch of my btrfs-progs repo. There's still some work to do in terms of optimizing the send side from kernel to userland. The really important part is figuring out how two snapshots are different, and this is where we are concentrating right now. The initial send of a dataset is a little slower than tar, but the incremental sends are dramatically faster than what rsync can do. On top of all of that, we have a nice queue of fixes, cleanups and optimizations."

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Btrfs has to make sure we have space to allocate new blocks in order to modify the inode, so updating time can fail. We've gotten around this by having our own file_update_time but this is kind of a pain, and Christoph has indicated he would like to make xfs do something different with atime updates. So introduce ->update_time, where we will deal with i_version an a/m/c time updates and indicate which changes need to be made. The normal version just does what it has always done, updates the time and marks the inode dirty, and then filesystems can choose to do something different. I've gone through all of the users of file_update_time and made them check for errors with the exception of the fault code since it's complicated and I wasn't quite sure what to do there, also Jan is going to be pushing the file time updates into page_mkwrite for those who have it so that should satisfy btrfs and make it not a big deal to check the file_update_time() return code in the generic fault path.

Some filesystems depend on flusher thread progressing (e.g. because they need to flush delay allocated blocks to reduce allocation uncertainty) and so flusher thread doing truncate creates interesting dependencies and possibilities for deadlocks. We get rid of iput() in flusher thread by using the fact that I_SYNC inode flag effectively pins the inode in memory. So if we take care to either hold i_lock or have I_SYNC set, we can get away without taking inode reference in writeback_sb_inodes(). As a side effect of these changes, we also fix possible use-after-free in wb_writeback() because inode_wait_for_writeback() call could try to reacquire i_lock on the inode that was already free.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After we moved inode_sync_wait() from end_writeback() it doesn't make sense to call the function end_writeback() anymore.

| * vfs: Move waiting for inode writeback from end_writeback() to evict_inode()Jan Kara2012-05-061-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, I_SYNC can never be set when evict_inode() (and thus end_writeback()) is called because flusher thread holds inode reference while inode is under writeback. As a result inode_sync_wait() in those places currently does nothing. However that is going to change and unveils problems with calling inode_sync_wait() from end_writeback(). Several filesystems call end_writeback() after they have deleted the inode (btrfs, gfs2, ...) and other filesystems (ext3, ext4, reiserfs, ...) can deadlock when waiting for I_SYNC because they call end_writeback() from within a transaction. To avoid these issues, we move inode_sync_wait() into evict_inode() before calling ->evict_inode(). That way we preserve the current property that ->evict_inode() and writeback never run in parallel and all filesystems are safe.

| * | mm: add a low limit to alloc_large_system_hashTim Bird2012-05-241-0/+2
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UDP stack needs a minimum hash size value for proper operation and also uses alloc_large_system_hash() for proper NUMA distribution of its hash tables and automatic sizing depending on available system memory. On some low memory situations, udp_table_init() must ignore the alloc_large_system_hash() result and reallocs a bigger memory area. As we cannot easily free old hash table, we leak it and kmemleak can issue a warning. This patch adds a low limit parameter to alloc_large_system_hash() to solve this problem. We then specify UDP_HTABLE_SIZE_MIN for UDP/UDPLite hash table allocation.

For now I change just the header and a few trivial users and rely on CONFIG_UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS not being set to ensure that the code will still compile during the transition. Helper functions i_uid_read, i_uid_write, i_gid_read, i_gid_write are added so that in most cases filesystems can avoid the complexities of multiple user namespaces and can concentrate on moving their raw numeric values into and out of the vfs data structures.

* | userns: Replace the hard to write inode_userns with inode_capable.Eric W. Biederman2012-04-071-4/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This represents a change in strategy of how to handle user namespaces. Instead of tagging everything explicitly with a user namespace and bulking up all of the comparisons of uids and gids in the kernel, all uids and gids in use will have a mapping to a flat kuid and kgid spaces respectively. This allows much more of the existing logic to be preserved and in general allows for faster code. In this new and improved world we allow someone to utiliize capabilities over an inode if the inodes owner mapps into the capabilities holders user namespace and the user has capabilities in their user namespace. Which is simple and efficient. Moving the fs uid comparisons to be comparisons in a flat kuid space follows in later patches, something that is only significant if you are using user namespaces.

* vfs: Correctly set the dir i_mutex lockdep classTyler Hicks2012-03-101-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 9a7aa12f3911853a introduced additional logic around setting the i_mutex lockdep class for directory inodes. The idea was that some filesystems may want their own special lockdep class for different directory inodes and calling unlock_new_inode() should not clobber one of those special classes. I believe that the added conditional, around the *negated* return value of lockdep_match_class(), caused directory inodes to be placed in the wrong lockdep class. inode_init_always() sets the i_mutex lockdep class with i_mutex_key for all inodes. If the filesystem did not change the class during inode initialization, then the conditional mentioned above was false and the directory inode was incorrectly left in the non-directory lockdep class. If the filesystem did set a special lockdep class, then the conditional mentioned above was true and that class was clobbered with i_mutex_dir_key. This patch removes the negation from the conditional so that the i_mutex lockdep class is properly set for directory inodes. Special classes are preserved and directory inodes with unmodified classes are set with i_mutex_dir_key.

* lockdep: Add helper function for dir vs file i_mutex annotationJosh Boyer2011-08-251-9/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purely in-memory filesystems do not use the inode hash as the dcache tells us if an entry already exists. As a result, they do not call unlock_new_inode, and thus directory inodes do not get put into a different lockdep class for i_sem. We need the different lockdep classes, because the locking order for i_mutex is different for directory inodes and regular inodes. Directory inodes can do "readdir()", which takes i_mutex *before* possibly taking mm->mmap_sem (due to a page fault while copying the directory entry to user space). In contrast, regular inodes can be mmap'ed, which takes mm->mmap_sem before accessing i_mutex. The two cases can never happen for the same inode, so no real deadlock can occur, but without the different lockdep classes, lockdep cannot understand that. As a result, if CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is set, this can lead to false positives from lockdep like below: find/645 is trying to acquire lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff81109514>] might_fault+0x5c/0xac but task is already holding lock: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#15){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81149f34>] vfs_readdir+0x5b/0xb4 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#15){+.+.+.}: [<ffffffff8108ac26>] lock_acquire+0xbf/0x103 [<ffffffff814db822>] __mutex_lock_common+0x4c/0x361 [<ffffffff814dbc46>] mutex_lock_nested+0x40/0x45 [<ffffffff811daa87>] hugetlbfs_file_mmap+0x82/0x110 [<ffffffff81111557>] mmap_region+0x258/0x432 [<ffffffff811119dd>] do_mmap_pgoff+0x2ac/0x306 [<ffffffff81111b4f>] sys_mmap_pgoff+0x118/0x16a [<ffffffff8100c858>] sys_mmap+0x22/0x24 [<ffffffff814e3ec2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b -> #0 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}: [<ffffffff8108a4bc>] __lock_acquire+0xa1a/0xcf7 [<ffffffff8108ac26>] lock_acquire+0xbf/0x103 [<ffffffff81109541>] might_fault+0x89/0xac [<ffffffff81149cff>] filldir+0x6f/0xc7 [<ffffffff811586ea>] dcache_readdir+0x67/0x205 [<ffffffff81149f54>] vfs_readdir+0x7b/0xb4 [<ffffffff8114a073>] sys_getdents+0x7e/0xd1 [<ffffffff814e3ec2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b This patch moves the directory vs file lockdep annotation into a helper function that can be called by in-memory filesystems and has hugetlbfs call it.

* vfs: optimize inode cache access patternsLinus Torvalds2011-08-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The inode structure layout is largely random, and some of the vfs paths really do care. The path lookup in particular is already quite D$ intensive, and profiles show that accessing the 'inode->i_op->xyz' fields is quite costly. We already optimized the dcache to not unnecessarily load the d_op structure for members that are often NULL using the DCACHE_OP_xyz bits in dentry->d_flags, and this does something very similar for the inode ops that are used during pathname lookup. It also re-orders the fields so that the fields accessed by 'stat' are together at the beginning of the inode structure, and roughly in the order accessed. The effect of this seems to be in the 1-2% range for an empty kernel "make -j" run (which is fairly kernel-intensive, mostly in filename lookup), so it's visible. The numbers are fairly noisy, though, and likely depend a lot on exact microarchitecture. So there's more tuning to be done. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
