ext2: Fix ki_pos update for DIO buffered-io fallback case
commit 8abc712ea4867a81c860853048f24e511bbc20f2 upstream.
Commit "filemap: update ki_pos in generic_perform_write", made updating of ki_pos into common code in generic_perform_write() function. This also causes generic/091 to fail. This happened due to an in-flight collision with: fb5de4358e1a ("ext2: Move direct-io to use iomap"). I have chosen fixes tag based on which commit got landed later to upstream kernel.

mm: remove enum page_entry_size
Remove the unnecessary encoding of page order into an enum and pass the page order directly. That lets us get rid of pe_order().
The switch constructs have to be changed to if/else constructs to prevent GCC from warning on builds with 3-level page tables where PMD_ORDER and PUD_ORDER have the same value.
If you are looking at this commit because your driver stopped compiling, look at the previous commit as well and audit your driver to be sure it doesn't depend on mmap_lock being held in its ->huge_fault method.

ext2: Move direct-io to use iomap
This patch converts ext2 direct-io path to iomap interface. - This also takes care of DIO_SKIP_HOLES part in which we return -ENOTBLK from ext2_iomap_begin(), in case if the write is done on a hole. - This fallbacks to buffered-io in case of DIO_SKIP_HOLES or in case of a partial write or if any error is detected in ext2_iomap_end(). We try to return -ENOTBLK in such cases. - For any unaligned or extending DIO writes, we pass IOMAP_DIO_FORCE_WAIT flag to ensure synchronous writes. - For extending writes we set IOMAP_F_DIRTY in ext2_iomap_begin because otherwise with dsync writes on devices that support FUA, generic_write_sync won't be called and we might miss inode metadata updates. - Since ext2 already now uses _nolock vartiant of sync write. Hence there is no inode lock problem with iomap in this patch. - ext2_iomap_ops are now being shared by DIO, DAX & fiemap path

ext2: Use generic_buffers_fsync() implementation
Next patch converts ext2 to use iomap interface for DIO. iomap layer can call generic_write_sync() -> ext2_fsync() from iomap_dio_complete while still holding the inode_lock().
Now writeback from other paths doesn't need inode_lock(). It seems there is also no need of an inode_lock() for sync_mapping_buffers(). It uses it's own mapping->private_lock for it's buffer list handling. Hence this patch is in preparation to move ext2 to iomap. This uses generic_buffers_fsync() which does not take any inode_lock() in ext2_fsync().

fs: rename current get acl method
The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1].
The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access to the dentry. In contrast to the ->set_acl() inode operation we cannot simply extend ->get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The ->get_acl() inode operation is called from:
acl_permission_check() -> check_acl() -> get_acl()
which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are called in the ->permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g., overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We should avoid this unnecessary change.
So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from ->get_acl() to ->get_inode_acl() and add a ->get_acl() method later that passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the dentry can implement instead of ->get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for permission checking during lookup can simply not implement ->get_inode_acl().
This is intended to be a non-functional change.

ext2: don't update mtime on COW faults
When running in a dax mode, if the user maps a page with MAP_PRIVATE and PROT_WRITE, the ext2 filesystem would incorrectly update ctime and mtime when the user hits a COW fault.
This breaks building of the Linux kernel. How to reproduce:
1. extract the Linux kernel tree on dax-mounted ext2 filesystem 2. run make clean 3. run make -j12 4. run make -j12
at step 4, make would incorrectly rebuild the whole kernel (although it was already built in step 3).
The reason for the breakage is that almost all object files depend on objtool. When we run objtool, it takes COW page fault on its .data section, and these faults will incorrectly update the timestamp of the objtool binary. The updated timestamp causes make to rebuild the whole tree.

dax: remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device dax
This patch is reworked from an earlier patch that Dan has posted: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10131727/
VM_MIXEDMAP is used by dax to direct mm paths like vm_normal_page() that the memory page it is dealing with is not typical memory from the linear map. The get_user_pages_fast() path, since it does not resolve the vma, is already using {pte,pmd}_devmap() as a stand-in for VM_MIXEDMAP, so we use that as a VM_MIXEDMAP replacement in some locations. In the cases where there is no pte to consult we fallback to using vma_is_dax() to detect the VM_MIXEDMAP special case.
Now that we have explicit driver pfn_t-flag opt-in/opt-out for get_user_pages() support for DAX we can stop setting VM_MIXEDMAP. This also means we no longer need to worry about safely manipulating vm_flags in a future where we support dynamically changing the dax mode of a file.
DAX should also now be supported with madvise_behavior(), vma_merge(), and copy_page_range().
This patch has been tested against ndctl unit test. It has also been tested against xfstests commit: 625515d using fake pmem created by memmap and no additional issues have been observed.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine
License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

dax: use common 4k zero page for dax mmap reads
When servicing mmap() reads from file holes the current DAX code allocates a page cache page of all zeroes and places the struct page pointer in the mapping->page_tree radix tree.
This has three major drawbacks:
1) It consumes memory unnecessarily. For every 4k page that is read via a DAX mmap() over a hole, we allocate a new page cache page. This means that if you read 1GiB worth of pages, you end up using 1GiB of zeroed memory. This is easily visible by looking at the overall memory consumption of the system or by looking at /proc/[pid]/smaps:
7f62e72b3000-7f63272b3000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12 /root/dax/data Size: 1048576 kB Rss: 1048576 kB Pss: 1048576 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 1048576 kB Private_Dirty: 0 kB Referenced: 1048576 kB Anonymous: 0 kB LazyFree: 0 kB AnonHugePages: 0 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB Shared_Hugetlb: 0 kB Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB Swap: 0 kB SwapPss: 0 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB Locked: 0 kB
2) It is slower than using a common zero page because each page fault has more work to do. Instead of just inserting a common zero page we have to allocate a page cache page, zero it, and then insert it. Here are the average latencies of dax_load_hole() as measured by ftrace on a random test box:
Old method, using zeroed page cache pages: 3.4 us New method, using the common 4k zero page: 0.8 us
This was the average latency over 1 GiB of sequential reads done by this simple fio script:
[global] size=1G filename=/root/dax/data fallocate=none [io] rw=read ioengine=mmap
3) The fact that we had to check for both DAX exceptional entries and for page cache pages in the radix tree made the DAX code more complex.
Solve these issues by following the lead of the DAX PMD code and using a common 4k zero page instead. As with the PMD code we will now insert a DAX exceptional entry into the radix tree instead of a struct page pointer which allows us to remove all the special casing in the DAX code.
Note that we do still pretty aggressively check for regular pages in the DAX radix tree, especially where we take action based on the bits set in the page. If we ever find a regular page in our radix tree now that most likely means that someone besides DAX is inserting pages (which has happened lots of times in the past), and we want to find that out early and fail loudly.
This solution also removes the extra memory consumption. Here is that same /proc/[pid]/smaps after 1GiB of reading from a hole with the new code:
7f2054a74000-7f2094a74000 rw-s 00000000 103:00 12 /root/dax/data Size: 1048576 kB Rss: 0 kB Pss: 0 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 0 kB Referenced: 0 kB Anonymous: 0 kB LazyFree: 0 kB AnonHugePages: 0 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB Shared_Hugetlb: 0 kB Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB Swap: 0 kB SwapPss: 0 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB Locked: 0 kB
Overall system memory consumption is similarly improved.
Another major change is that we remove dax_pfn_mkwrite() from our fault flow, and instead rely on the page fault itself to make the PTE dirty and writeable. The following description from the patch adding the vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite() call explains this a little more:
"To be able to use the common 4k zero page in DAX we need to have our PTE fault path look more like our PMD fault path where a PTE entry can be marked as dirty and writeable as it is first inserted rather than waiting for a follow-up dax_pfn_mkwrite() => finish_mkwrite_fault() call.
Right now we can rely on having a dax_pfn_mkwrite() call because we can distinguish between these two cases in do_wp_page():
case 1: 4k zero page => writable DAX storage case 2: read-only DAX storage => writeable DAX storage
This distinction is made by via vm_normal_page(). vm_normal_page() returns false for the common 4k zero page, though, just as it does for DAX ptes. Instead of special casing the DAX + 4k zero page case we will simplify our DAX PTE page fault sequence so that it matches our DAX PMD sequence, and get rid of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() helper. We will instead use dax_iomap_fault() to handle write-protection faults.
This means that insert_pfn() needs to follow the lead of insert_pfn_pmd() and allow us to pass in a 'mkwrite' flag. If 'mkwrite' is set insert_pfn() will do the work that was previously done by wp_page_reuse() as part of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() call path"

ext2 currently does a test+clear of the AS_EIO flag, which is is problematic for some coming changes.
What we really need to do instead is call filemap_check_errors in __generic_file_fsync after syncing out the buffers. That will be sufficient for this case, and help other callers detect these errors properly as well.
With that, we don't need to twiddle it in ext2.

mm: replace FAULT_FLAG_SIZE with parameter to huge_fault
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.

mm,fs,dax: change ->pmd_fault to ->huge_fault
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.

mm, fs: reduce fault, page_mkwrite, and pfn_mkwrite to take only vmf
->fault(), ->page_mkwrite(), and ->pfn_mkwrite() calls do not need to take a vma and vmf parameter when the vma already resides in vmf.
Remove the vma parameter to simplify things.

dax: correct dax iomap code namespace
The recently added DAX functions that use the new struct iomap data structure were named iomap_dax_rw(), iomap_dax_fault() and iomap_dax_actor(). These are actually defined in fs/dax.c, though, so should be part of the "dax" namespace and not the "iomap" namespace. Rename them to dax_iomap_rw(), dax_iomap_fault() and dax_iomap_actor() respectively.

ext2: remove support for DAX PMD faults
DAX PMD support was added via the following commit:
commit e7b1ea2ad658 ("ext2: huge page fault support")
I believe this path to be untested as ext2 doesn't reliably provide block allocations that are aligned to 2MiB. In my testing I've been unable to get ext2 to actually fault in a PMD. It always fails with a "pfn unaligned" message because the sector returned by ext2_get_block() isn't aligned.
I've tried various settings for the "stride" and "stripe_width" extended options to mkfs.ext2, without any luck.
Since we can't reliably get PMDs, remove support so that we don't have an untested code path that we may someday traverse when we happen to get an aligned block allocation. This should also make 4k DAX faults in ext2 a bit faster since they will no longer have to call the PMD fault handler only to get a response of VM_FAULT_FALLBACK.
