Merge tag 'fscache-rewrite-20220111' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs

Pull fscache rewrite from David Howells:
"This is a set of patches that rewrites the fscache driver and the
cachefiles driver, significantly simplifying the code compared to
what's upstream, removing the complex operation scheduling and object
state machine in favour of something much smaller and simpler.

The series is structured such that the first few patches disable
fscache use by the network filesystems using it, remove the cachefiles
driver entirely and as much of the fscache driver as can be got away
with without causing build failures in the network filesystems.

The patches after that recreate fscache and then cachefiles,
attempting to add the pieces in a logical order. Finally, the
filesystems are reenabled and then the very last patch changes the
documentation.

[!] Note: I have dropped the cifs patch for the moment, leaving local
caching in cifs disabled. I've been having trouble getting that
working. I think I have it done, but it needs more testing (there
seem to be some test failures occurring with v5.16 also from
xfstests), so I propose deferring that patch to the end of the
merge window.

WHY REWRITE?
============

Fscache's operation scheduling API was intended to handle sequencing
of cache operations, which were all required (where possible) to run
asynchronously in parallel with the operations being done by the
network filesystem, whilst allowing the cache to be brought online and
offline and to interrupt service for invalidation.

With the advent of the tmpfile capacity in the VFS, however, an
opportunity arises to do invalidation much more simply, without having
to wait for I/O that's actually in progress: Cachefiles can simply
create a tmpfile, cut over the file pointer for the backing object
attached to a cookie and abandon the in-progress I/O, dismissing it
upon completion.

Future work here would involve using Omar Sandoval's vfs_link() with
AT_LINK_REPLACE[1] to allow an extant file to be displaced by a new
hard link from a tmpfile as currently I have to unlink the old file
first.

These patches can also simplify the object state handling as I/O
operations to the cache don't all have to be brought to a stop in
order to invalidate a file. To that end, and with an eye on to writing
a new backing cache model in the future, I've taken the opportunity to
simplify the indexing structure.

I've separated the index cookie concept from the file cookie concept
by C type now. The former is now called a "volume cookie" (struct
fscache_volume) and there is a container of file cookies. There are
then just the two levels. All the index cookie levels are collapsed
into a single volume cookie, and this has a single printable string as
a key. For instance, an AFS volume would have a key of something like
"afs,example.com,1000555", combining the filesystem name, cell name
and volume ID. This is freeform, but must not have '/' chars in it.

I've also eliminated all pointers back from fscache into the network
filesystem. This required the duplication of a little bit of data in
the cookie (cookie key, coherency data and file size), but it's not
actually that much. This gets rid of problems with making sure we keep
netfs data structures around so that the cache can access them.

These patches mean that most of the code that was in the drivers
before is simply gone and those drivers are now almost entirely new
code. That being the case, there doesn't seem any particular reason to
try and maintain bisectability across it. Further, there has to be a
point in the middle where things are cut over as there's a single
point everything has to go through (ie. /dev/cachefiles) and it can't
be in use by two drivers at once.

ISSUES YET OUTSTANDING
======================

There are some issues still outstanding, unaddressed by this patchset,
that will need fixing in future patchsets, but that don't stop this
series from being usable:

(1) The cachefiles driver needs to stop using the backing filesystem's
metadata to store information about what parts of the cache are
populated. This is not reliable with modern extent-based
filesystems.

Fixing this is deferred to a separate patchset as it involves
negotiation with the network filesystem and the VM as to how much
data to download to fulfil a read - which brings me on to (2)...

(2) NFS (and CIFS with the dropped patch) do not take account of how
the cache would like I/O to be structured to meet its granularity
requirements. Previously, the cache used page granularity, which
was fine as the network filesystems also dealt in page
granularity, and the backing filesystem (ext4, xfs or whatever)
did whatever it did out of sight. However, we now have folios to
deal with and the cache will now have to store its own metadata to
track its contents.

The change I'm looking at making for cachefiles is to store
content bitmaps in one or more xattrs and making a bit in the map
correspond to something like a 256KiB block. However, the size of
an xattr and the fact that they have to be read/updated in one go
means that I'm looking at covering 1GiB of data per 512-byte map
and storing each map in an xattr. Cachefiles has the potential to
grow into a fully fledged filesystem of its very own if I'm not
careful.

However, I'm also looking at changing things even more radically
and going to a different model of how the cache is arranged and
managed - one that's more akin to the way, say, openafs does
things - which brings me on to (3)...

(3) The way cachefilesd does culling is very inefficient for large
caches and it would be better to move it into the kernel if I can
as cachefilesd has to keep asking the kernel if it can cull a
file. Changing the way the backend works would allow this to be
addressed.

BITS THAT MAY BE CONTROVERSIAL
==============================

There are some bits I've added that may be controversial:

(1) I've provided a flag, S_KERNEL_FILE, that cachefiles uses to check
if a files is already being used by some other kernel service
(e.g. a duplicate cachefiles cache in the same directory) and
reject it if it is. This isn't entirely necessary, but it helps
prevent accidental data corruption.

I don't want to use S_SWAPFILE as that has other effects, but
quite possibly swapon() should set S_KERNEL_FILE too.

Note that it doesn't prevent userspace from interfering, though
perhaps it should. (I have made it prevent a marked directory from
being rmdir-able).

(2) Cachefiles wants to keep the backing file for a cookie open whilst
we might need to write to it from network filesystem writeback.
The problem is that the network filesystem unuses its cookie when
its file is closed, and so we have nothing pinning the cachefiles
file open and it will get closed automatically after a short time
to avoid EMFILE/ENFILE problems.

Reopening the cache file, however, is a problem if this is being
done due to writeback triggered by exit(). Some filesystems will
oops if we try to open a file in that context because they want to
access current->fs or suchlike.

To get around this, I added the following:

(A) An inode flag, I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB, to be set on a network
filesystem inode to indicate that we have a usage count on the
cookie caching that inode.

(B) A flag in struct writeback_control, unpinned_fscache_wb, that
is set when __writeback_single_inode() clears the last dirty
page from i_pages - at which point it clears
I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and sets this flag.

This has to be done here so that clearing I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB
can be done atomically with the check of PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY
that clears I_DIRTY_PAGES.

(C) A function, fscache_set_page_dirty(), which if it is not set,
sets I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and calls fscache_use_cookie() to
pin the cache resources.

(D) A function, fscache_unpin_writeback(), to be called by
->write_inode() to unuse the cookie.

(E) A function, fscache_clear_inode_writeback(), to be called when
the inode is evicted, before clear_inode() is called. This
cleans up any lingering I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB.

The network filesystem can then use these tools to make sure that
fscache_write_to_cache() can write locally modified data to the
cache as well as to the server.

For the future, I'm working on write helpers for netfs lib that
should allow this facility to be removed by keeping track of the
dirty regions separately - but that's incomplete at the moment and
is also going to be affected by folios, one way or another, since
it deals with pages"

fscache: Provide a means to begin an operation

Provide a function to begin a read operation:

int fscache_begin_read_operation(
struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
struct fscache_cookie *cookie)

This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of
netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly.
It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the
supplied cookie.

This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the
operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform
synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the
cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the
operation.

Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and
able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in
progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the
network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for
the cookie to move to the correct state.

This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state
to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that
I/O can resume.


Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object
to get to a state where it can be used for certain things:

bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
enum fscache_want_stage stage);

This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits
for them to get to an appropriate stage. There's a choice of wanting just
some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O
(FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

fscache: Implement cookie registration

Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired
and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the
filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume.

To request a cookie, the filesystem should call:

struct fscache_cookie *
fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume,
u8 advice,
const void *index_key,
size_t index_key_len,
const void *aux_data,
size_t aux_data_len,
loff_t object_size)


The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in
here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL
cookie.

A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len.
This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in
the cache.

A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and
initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to
validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them
when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be
updateable by various functions in later patches.

The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a
coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately.

This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel,
though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy
relinquishing its cookie.


When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call:

void
fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume,
bool retire)

If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately.

Changes
=======
ver #3:
- fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit
to round up to.
- When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather
than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1].
- Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of
freeing.

ver #2:
- Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but
rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when
n_accesses reaches 0.
- Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire
tracepoint.

fscache: Implement volume registration

Add functions to the fscache API to allow volumes to be acquired and
relinquished by the network filesystem. A volume is an index of data
storage cache objects. A volume is represented by a volume cookie in the
API. A filesystem would typically create a volume for a superblock and
then create per-inode cookies within it.

To request a volume, the filesystem calls:

struct fscache_volume *
fscache_acquire_volume(const char *volume_key,
const char *cache_name,
const void *coherency_data,
size_t coherency_len)

The volume_key is a printable string used to match the volume in the cache.
It should not contain any '/' characters. For AFS, for example, this would
be "afs,<cellname>,<volume_id>", e.g. "afs,example.com,523001".

The cache_name can be NULL, but if not it should be a string indicating the
name of the cache to use if there's more than one available.

The coherency data, if given, is an arbitrarily-sized blob that's attached
to the volume and is compared when the volume is looked up. If it doesn't
match, the old volume is judged to be out of date and it and everything
within it is discarded.

Acquiring a volume twice concurrently is disallowed, though the function
will wait if an old volume cookie is being relinquishing.


When a network filesystem has finished with a volume, it should return the
volume cookie by calling:

void
fscache_relinquish_volume(struct fscache_volume *volume,
const void *coherency_data,
bool invalidate)

If invalidate is true, the entire volume will be discarded; if false, the
volume will be synced and the coherency data will be updated.

Changes
=======
ver #4:
- Removed an extraneous param from kdoc on fscache_relinquish_volume()[3].

ver #3:
- fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit
to round up to.
- When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather
than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[2].
- Make the coherency data an arbitrary blob rather than a u64, but don't
store it for the moment.

ver #2:
- Fix error check[1].
- Make a fscache_acquire_volume() return errors, including EBUSY if a
conflicting volume cookie already exists. No error is printed now -
that's left to the netfs.

Two functions are provided for the cache backend to use:

(1) Acquire a cache cookie:

struct fscache_cache *fscache_acquire_cache(const char *name)

This gets the cache cookie for a cache of the specified name and moves

will be given this name and used.

(2) Relinquish a cache cookie:

This relinquishes a cache cookie, cleans it and makes it available if
it's still referenced by a network filesystem.

Note that network filesystems don't deal with cache cookies directly, but
rather go straight to the volume registration.
