When doing cow faults, we cannot directly fill in PTE as we do for other
faults as we rely on generic code to do proper accounting of the cowed page.
We also have no page to lock to protect against races with truncate as
other faults have and we need the protection to extend until the moment
generic code inserts cowed page into PTE thus at that point we have no
protection of fs-specific i_mmap_sem. So far we relied on using
i_mmap_lock for the protection however that is completely special to cow
faults. To make fault locking more uniform use DAX entry lock instead.

Currently DAX page fault locking is racy.
CPU0 (write fault) CPU1 (read fault)
__dax_fault() __dax_fault()
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0)
-> not mapped
if (!buffer_mapped(&bh))
if (vmf->flags & FAULT_FLAG_WRITE)
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 1) -> allocates blocks
if (page) -> no
if (!buffer_mapped(&bh))
if (vmf->flags & FAULT_FLAG_WRITE) {
} else {
dax_load_hole();
}
dax_insert_mapping()
And we are in a situation where we fail in dax_radix_entry() with -EIO.
Another problem with the current DAX page fault locking is that there is
no race-free way to clear dirty tag in the radix tree. We can always
end up with clean radix tree and dirty data in CPU cache.
We fix the first problem by introducing locking of exceptional radix
tree entries in DAX mappings acting very similarly to page lock and thus
synchronizing properly faults against the same mapping index. The same
lock can later be used to avoid races when clearing radix tree dirty
tag.

Currently the handling of huge pages for DAX is racy. For example the
following can happen:
CPU0 (THP write fault) CPU1 (normal read fault)
__dax_pmd_fault() __dax_fault()
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0)
-> not mapped
if (!buffer_mapped(&bh) && write)
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 1) -> allocates blocks
truncate_pagecache_range(inode, lstart, lend);
dax_load_hole();
This results in data corruption since process on CPU1 won't see changes
into the file done by CPU0.
The race can happen even if two normal faults race however with THP the
situation is even worse because the two faults don't operate on the same
entries in the radix tree and we want to use these entries for
serialization. So make THP support in DAX code depend on CONFIG_BROKEN
for now.

If these sub-page ranges are sector aligned and sized, we can do the

For sub-sector ranges, we still have to rely on clear_pmem and have the

Callers of dax fault handlers must make sure these calls cannot race

function and we don't have to recheck it again later in the handler.
Note that inode size itself can be decreased while the fault handler
runs but filesystem locking prevents against any radix tree or block
mapping information changes resulting from the truncate and that is what

Currently, __dax_fault() does not call get_blocks() callback with create
argument set, when we got back unwritten extent from the initial
get_blocks() call during a write fault. This is because originally
filesystems were supposed to convert unwritten extents to written ones
using complete_unwritten() callback. Later this was abandoned in favor of
using pre-zeroed blocks however the condition whether get_blocks() needs
to be called with create == 1 remained.
Fix the condition so that filesystems are not forced to zero-out and
convert unwritten extents when get_blocks() is called with create == 0
(which introduces unnecessary overhead for read faults and can be
problematic as the filesystem may possibly be read-only).

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Pull xfs updates from Dave Chinner:
"There's quite a lot in this request, and there's some cross-over with
ext4, dax and quota code due to the nature of the changes being made.
As for the rest of the XFS changes, there are lots of little things
all over the place, which add up to a lot of changes in the end.
The major changes are that we've reduced the size of the struct
xfs_inode by ~100 bytes (gives an inode cache footprint reduction of
>10%), the writepage code now only does a single set of mapping tree
lockups so uses less CPU, delayed allocation reservations won't
overrun under random write loads anymore, and we added compile time
verification for on-disk structure sizes so we find out when a commit
or platform/compiler change breaks the on disk structure as early as
possible.
Change summary:
- error propagation for direct IO failures fixes for both XFS and

dax_writeback_mapping_range() needs a struct block_device, and it used

mounted on ext2, ext4 and XFS filesystems, but is incorrect for DAX raw
block devices and for XFS real-time files.
Instead, call dax_writeback_mapping_range() directly from the filesystem

Previously in DAX we assumed that calls to get_block() would set

was fixed by a previous commit, but that commit only changed the one

Instead, update dax.c so that we always initialize bh.b_bdev as best we
can based on the information that DAX has. get_block() may or may not
update to a new value, but this at least lets us get something helpful
from bh.b_bdev for error messages and not have to worry about whether it
was set by get_block() or not.

To properly handle fsync/msync in an efficient way DAX needs to track
dirty pages so it is able to flush them durably to media on demand.
The tracking of dirty pages is done via the radix tree in struct
address_space. This radix tree is already used by the page writeback
infrastructure for tracking dirty pages associated with an open file,
and it already has support for exceptional (non struct page*) entries.
We build upon these features to add exceptional entries to the radix
tree for DAX dirty PMD or PTE pages at fault time.

When we get a DAX PMD fault for a write it is possible that there could
be some number of 4k zero pages already present for the same range that
were inserted to service reads from a hole. These 4k zero pages need to
be unmapped from the VMAs and removed from the struct address_space
radix tree before the real DAX PMD entry can be inserted.
For PTE faults this same use case also exists and is handled by a
combination of unmap_mapping_range() to unmap the VMAs and
delete_from_page_cache() to remove the page from the address_space radix
tree.
For PMD faults we do have a call to unmap_mapping_range() (protected by
a buffer_new() check), but nothing clears out the radix tree entry. The
buffer_new() check is also incorrect as the current ext4 and XFS
filesystem code will never return a buffer_head with BH_New set, even
when allocating new blocks over a hole. Instead the filesystem will
zero the blocks manually and return a buffer_head with only BH_Mapped
set.
Fix this situation by removing the buffer_new() check and adding a call
to truncate_inode_pages_range() to clear out the radix tree entries
before we insert the DAX PMD.

This assumption isn't always true - when called for reads of holes
ext4_dax_mmap_get_block() returns a buffer head where bh->b_bdev is
never set. I hit this BUG while testing the DAX PMD fault path.
Instead, initialize bh.b_bdev before passing bh into get_block(). It is
possible that the filesystem's get_block() will update bh.b_bdev, and
this is fine - we just want to initialize bh.b_bdev to something
reasonable so that the calls to __dax_dbg() work and print something
useful.

For the purpose of communicating the optional presence of a 'struct
page' for the pfn returned from ->direct_access(), introduce a type that
encapsulates a page-frame-number plus flags. These flags contain the
historical "page_link" encoding for a scatterlist entry, but can also
denote "device memory". Where "device memory" is a set of pfns that are
not part of the kernel's linear mapping by default, but are accessed via
the same memory controller as ram.
The motivation for this new type is large capacity persistent memory
that needs struct page entries in the 'memmap' to support 3rd party DMA
(i.e. O_DIRECT I/O with a persistent memory source/target). However,
we also need it in support of maintaining a list of mapped inodes which
need to be unmapped at driver teardown or freeze_bdev() time.

An infinite loop of PMD faults was observed when attempted to mlock() a

__dax_pmd_fault() simply returns with VM_FAULT_FALLBACK when falling
back to PTE on COW. However, __handle_mm_fault() returns without
falling back to handle_pte_fault() because a PMD map is present in this
case.
Change __dax_pmd_fault() to split the PMD map, if present, before
returning with VM_FAULT_FALLBACK.

The DAX implementation needs to protect new calls to ->direct_access()

block device being disabled. Use blk_queue_enter()/blk_queue_exit() to
hold off blk_cleanup_queue() from proceeding, or otherwise fail new
mapping requests if the request_queue is being torn down.
This also introduces blk_dax_ctl to simplify the interface from fs/dax.c

To date, we have implemented two I/O usage models for persistent memory,
PMEM (a persistent "ram disk") and DAX (mmap persistent memory into
userspace). This series adds a third, DAX-GUP, that allows DAX mappings
to be the target of direct-i/o. It allows userspace to coordinate
DMA/RDMA from/to persistent memory.
The implementation leverages the ZONE_DEVICE mm-zone that went into
4.3-rc1 (also discussed at kernel summit) to flag pages that are owned
and dynamically mapped by a device driver. The pmem driver, after
mapping a persistent memory range into the system memmap via
devm_memremap_pages(), arranges for DAX to distinguish pfn-only versus
page-backed pmem-pfns via flags in the new pfn_t type.
The DAX code, upon seeing a PFN_DEV+PFN_MAP flagged pfn, flags the
resulting pte(s) inserted into the process page tables with a new
_PAGE_DEVMAP flag. Later, when get_user_pages() is walking ptes it keys
off _PAGE_DEVMAP to pin the device hosting the page range active.
Finally, get_page() and put_page() are modified to take references
against the device driver established page mapping.
Finally, this need for "struct page" for persistent memory requires
memory capacity to store the memmap array. Given the memmap array for a
large pool of persistent may exhaust available DRAM introduce a
mechanism to allocate the memmap from persistent memory. The new
"struct vmem_altmap *" parameter to devm_memremap_pages() enables
arch_add_memory() to use reserved pmem capacity rather than the page
allocator.
This patch (of 25):
Both __dax_pmd_fault, and clear_pmem() were taking special steps to
clear memory a page at a time to take advantage of non-temporal
clear_page() implementations. However, x86_64 does not use non-temporal
instructions for clear_page(), and arch_clear_pmem() was always
incurring the cost of __arch_wb_cache_pmem().
Clean up the assumption that doing clear_pmem() a page at a time is more
performant.

All of these paths are interpreting a dax pmd mapping as a transparent
huge page and making the assumption that the pfn is covered by the
memmap, i.e. that the pfn has an associated struct page. PTE mappings
do not suffer the same fate since they have the _PAGE_SPECIAL flag to
cause the gup path to fault. We can do something similar for the PMD
path, or otherwise defer pmd support for cases where a struct page is
available. For now, 4.4-rc and -stable need to disable dax pmd support
by default.
For development the "depends on BROKEN" line can be removed from
CONFIG_FS_DAX_PMD.

DAX has a page fault serialisation problem with block allocation.
Because it allows concurrent page faults and does not have a page
lock to serialise faults to the same page, it can get two concurrent
faults to the page that race.
When two read faults race, this isn't a huge problem as the data
underlying the page is not changing and so "detect and drop" works
just fine. The issues are to do with write faults.
When two write faults occur, we serialise block allocation in
get_blocks() so only one faul will allocate the extent. It will,
however, be marked as an unwritten extent, and that is where the
problem lies - the DAX fault code cannot differentiate between a
block that was just allocated and a block that was preallocated and
needs zeroing. The result is that both write faults end up zeroing
the block and attempting to convert it back to written.
The problem is that the first fault can zero and convert before the
second fault starts zeroing, resulting in the zeroing for the second
fault overwriting the data that the first fault wrote with zeros.
The second fault then attempts to convert the unwritten extent,
which is then a no-op because it's already written. Data loss occurs
as a result of this race.
Because there is no sane locking construct in the page fault code
that we can use for serialisation across the page faults, we need to
ensure block allocation and zeroing occurs atomically in the
filesystem. This means we can still take concurrent page faults and
the only time they will serialise is in the filesystem
mapping/allocation callback. The page fault code will always see
written, initialised extents, so we will be able to remove the
unwritten extent handling from the DAX code when all filesystems are
converted.
